For 4,000 miners, Zhu Yixi quickly established a team of 5,000 or even 1,000 generals.
Captain, also called captain.
The general manager, in charge of more than 400 people, is equivalent to a modern battalion commander.
Basically, four thousand people are divided into three thousand commanders.
For General Qian, Zhu Yixi personally appointed him, while for the rest of the middle and lower-level officers, dozens of people were recruited from the epidemic prevention troops.
We took weapons and armor from the craftsmen's camp, and the group broke through six thousand.
As a personal guard, Sun Lin was amazed.
Sun Xuan, on the other hand, opened her beautiful eyes and looked at the calm Zhu Yixi, feeling unbelievable in her heart.
Just like that, you have 6,000 people under your command?
Zhu Yixi naturally didn't know how the two young men felt. Instead, he was quite interested in the giant Yan Guochao:
"National Super League, with your physique, being a personal guard is a bit unqualified. After a while, you will be useful."
"Hey, thank you very much, Inspector!"
Yan Guochao looked back at the gradually blurring city of Xi'an, couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a simple smile: "It would be great to survive and get out of the mine."
Zhu Yixi nodded. With his physique, he is a good player in basketball, but now, he is also a sharp weapon when charging into battle.
However, it is still necessary to build a close-fitting heavy armor for him, so that he can become a complete humanoid tank.
The group of people left in a hurry, but officers were initially established in the mining army, and the system was established, so the speed was guaranteed. In four days, they arrived at Tongguan.
"Where did you get so many people?"
Li Jizu was shocked, and said with special envy: "There are many blunderbuss, tsk tsk, you are quite capable."
"The Governor has the bottom of the pack."
Zhu Yixi explained softly: "With these six thousand people, we should be able to defend Tongguan."
At present, there are only 3,000 people in Tongguan. Once his 6,000 people arrive, their status will be reversed immediately.
Instead, he held the majority.
Li Jizu's tone was much lower, but the relationship was still close.
Zhu Yixi is also very attracted to this person. These three thousand people are just big and small pieces of meat!
"Remember, we need to do it quickly. Just stab and poke. These two moves will be enough. We must make them the best shield for the musketeers."
Zhu Yixi emphasized again and again to Zhu Meng.
Immediately, while he was training the mining army and practicing goose steps, he kept sending out spies, wanting to know the news about Ruzhou.
…
And Sun Chuanting on the front line did not disappoint.
Under the passionate collision of tens of thousands of people, the city of Ruzhou was vulnerable and its clothes were in ruins. The new intruder had to escape from the city. The Qin army won the victory and became the lord of Ruzhou.
However, Qiu Zhitao, who was the minister of the military government, secretly came to the stable and met the steward who kept the horses.
It's just that the environment in front of me makes people uncomfortable.
The human body was used as a food trough, the internal organs were emptied out, and fodder was put in. The horses continued to feed, and the flesh and blood were mixed with the fodder, making the corners of the war horses' mouths turn red.
It's like hell.
"Sir!" The butler came to pay his respects with a scarred face.
Qiu Zhitao turned his head. He had long been accustomed to this. He said to the steward hidden in the stable: "If you pass this letter to the Qin army, it must be handed over to Governor Sun."
"Yes, young master." The butler nodded fiercely: "The intruder will surely be destroyed."
"I will definitely die a good death for the intruder to avenge my grandfather."
Qiu Zhitao said viciously, with a look of resentment on his face.
Suddenly, he felt his ears nodding. He turned around and saw, at some point, a war horse came close to his ears and began to lick them.
"Um?"
"Sir, the intruders are not human. They often pierce people's ears and mix them into the water. So when these mules and horses get close to people, they want to drink human blood!"
The housekeeper said solemnly.
"Thieves are not human beings."
After saying a few words, Qiu Zhitao shook his head and walked away quickly.
He had been in a prisoner camp and had seen many of this miserable situation. He was only surprised, not afraid.
All men between fifteen and below forty will be plundered as slaves, and for every ten thousand people, there will be two hundred thousand slaves.
There is no joy in the army. Cutting off ears, picking out eyes, amputation of fingers, breaking off feet, disemboweling hearts, sawing bodies, etc., torture the common people, which is almost customary.
Even the intruders in the headquarters were not allowed to carry baggage and go into battle lightly. In order to ensure the rapid transfer of the army, every soldier's wife gave birth to a baby and the baby was drowned.
"How can such an army of thieves be the destiny of heaven?"
While Sun Chuanting was planning his actions after the Battle of Ruzhou, his own soldiers suddenly came to report that a merchant from Xiangyang had come to see him in an urgent matter.
The person who came was none other than Qiu Zhitao's housekeeper, and he handed the wax pills with both hands.
After Sun Chuanting read the letter, he couldn't help but frown and smile: "Sure enough, Qiu Zhitao will not disappoint me."
What he said was exactly what he had said before to encourage Xiangyang's strategy of disrupting the morale of the army.
In addition, he also said that Li Zicheng's main force had been waiting in Xiangcheng and Jiaxian for a long time.
"Someone, we must annihilate the thieves in Xiangcheng and wipe out this biggest group of bandits."
Sun Chuanting wrote a reply in his own hand and gave it to the housekeeper, repeatedly asking him to be careful along the way.
Immediately, he asked his staff to write a memorandum, listing the illustrious results achieved during this trip, and the words were filled with high fighting spirit and optimism.
The next use of troops will be in Baozhou.
Baozhou is close to Jiaxian and Xiangcheng, so its location is very important.
Chen Kexin, the state pastor, was loyal to Li Zicheng and defended the city with all his heart. However, under the Qin army's strong attack regardless of the cost, the city could only be destroyed and people died.
Obviously, Qiu Zhitao's guess was not wrong. Li Zicheng's main force was in the Xiangcheng and Jiaxian areas.
However, what Sun Chuanting didn't expect was that Li Zicheng had set up a large number of earth forts, packed his bags, and had been waiting for his arrival.
At one time, hundreds of thousands of troops faced off against the front line. The military camps stretched for dozens of miles and could not be seen beyond.
Early September.
The city of Beijing can be described as a double blessing.
Emperor Chongzhen first received a secret message from Wu Sangui's flying cavalry, saying that "Lu Qu" Huang Taiji had died of a sudden illness on the ninth day of August.
His six-year-old son Fulin ascended the throne, and Prince Rui Dorgon and Prince Zheng Jierhalang assisted in the administration.
The political situation in "Ruting" was unstable and disputes continued.
After that, he received a report of victory from Sun Chuanting from Ruzhou. He couldn't help but take pictures of the imperial case and said excitedly:
"Okay!! Okay!! God bless the Ming Dynasty! God bless the Ming Dynasty!"
Thinking of this, he burst into tears and suddenly lost his temper.
Later, Chongzhen sent an order to the cabinet ministers and the officials from the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the Ministry of Works to come and discuss the matter.
Emperor Chongzhen circulated Sun Chuanting's memorial among his ministers and said with hesitation:
"Supervisor Sun has repeatedly reported victory in battles, but the thieves can only be defeated in a matter of days. What do you think?"
As a good friend of Sun Chuanting, Feng Yuanbiao, Minister of War, couldn't help but look worried:
"The bandit's men and horses are several times larger than mine, but this time they collapsed at the first touch. They are actually luring the enemy with weak troops.
The governor hastily advanced, and I am deeply concerned."
Zhang Fengxiang, the Minister of War, also advised: "Your Majesty, please convey the decree as soon as possible and warn Sun Chuanting not to waste the war."
Seeing this, Zhang Yan, the first assistant, hurriedly walked over.
But Chongzhen was in trouble, so he had to order his ministers to retreat in embarrassment.
As for asking Sun Chuanting to withdraw his troops, Chongzhen had no such intention.
This is the best opportunity to understand the people displaced by civil strife. How can we waste it?
It was almost dusk when Chongzhen stepped out of the Qianqing Palace. The entire palace courtyard was extremely quiet, but he saw a ray of setting sun shining in the west, and the horizon turned into a blurry light that alternated between thick and thin.
Chongzhen thought it was a good omen and prayed silently: "Sun Chuanting will definitely win! The national destiny will definitely turn around!"
