Chapter 1431 No suspense

As early as on the way to the tower, Baoqing Prefect Zhou Ling heard that with the ambushing official army, the front-line war quickly entered a white-hot stage, and the official army has now gained a full advantage.

This also means that the combat plan formulated by the Governor is practical and smoothly implemented.

At this time, it is very unwise to get angry in front of Chen Xi, who is about to win a big victory!

Chen Xi glared at Zhou Ling, who was looking downstairs, and said, "Master Zhou, the arrangements of this official are the best choice at present. Although this will bring some trouble to the people in the city and losses in terms of wealth, it can be regarded as the initiative to exchange local interests for the overall situation."

"Think about it, once the rebels on this road are completely resolved, the rebels south of Ziyang Pass and Shiyang Pass will become frightened birds and be in trouble. In this way, the official will no longer need to spend a lot of effort to suppress the rebellion, and can devote more energy to the pacification!"

Zhou Ling showed a little disdain on his face.

He didn't want to recruit those rioters who did not accept the king's transformation... In Zhou Ling's view, the government did not need to compromise with these "barbarians" who betrayed the court. He even wanted Chen Xi to lead troops south directly and wipe out all of them, so that those "barbarians" could know the power of the royal army and support and cheer up the local government.

The two completely different mentalities of treating local ethnic minorities have caused Zhou Ling to fail to understand what Chen Xi did and can only fight with silence.

Chen Xi couldn't stand the other party's arrogant attitude and waved his hand a little bored: "Master Zhou is waiting downstairs. When the war is over, I will go to the front with Master Zhou to inspect the battlefield!"

Zhou Ling turned around and a clear voice came: "Shen Zhongcheng's kindness, Xiaguan was grateful for his kindness, but Xiaguan had to go back to appease the people who had lost their homes, dispatch the government and county yamen to maintain order. After the war, the city would inevitably be in chaos, and there were even some sluts who were catching fish in troubled waters, but he didn't know that Shen Zhongcheng had considered these things..."

At this time, Zhou Ling held his head and his chest with steady and powerful steps. He looked like a famous scholar. He thought that he was more thoughtful than Chen Xi, but in fact he was just showing off in front of Shen Xi, in order to leave a good impression of being brave enough to do things and not fearing the powerful in front of the governors of the two provinces.

As soon as the prefect Zhou Magistrate left, Wang He sent a commander to report on the battle situation and had already arrived at the bottom of the tower.

The messenger raised his head and saw Chen Xi, shouting at the top of his voice: "Sir, most of the rebels rushing into the streets have been controlled, and the remaining rebels are retreating to the city gate. Commander Wang is leading his troops to pursue him. He asks you to send troops to clean the battlefield..."

Chen Xi frowned and murmured to himself: "The battlefield before was originally a residential house. What kind of battlefield should you clean? Do you think you are conquering the city?"

Suddenly thinking of something, Chen Xi shouted: "Come here, I'm sending the order of the official. A thousand soldiers and horses lying on both wings on the city wall quickly headed towards the south gate and regained control of the city gate as soon as possible. Tell He Hong and He Qianhu that this battle must be successful!"

"In addition, the five hundred officers and soldiers who quietly left the city from the west gate before the war, cooperated with the actions on the city, and must block the city gate as soon as possible."

"Get orders!"

The messenger turned over his horse and quickly left with the flag, and wanted to spread the news in the shortest time.

Not long after, a loud horn sounded in the city, which was a signal of the government's army launching a full-scale attack.

Before, only the two thousand Gan Army led by Wang He launched an attack on the blocks captured by the rebels. Now Shen Xi wants to mobilize all the troops in his hands, further compress the area in the South Gate controlled by the rebels, and solve this enemy in the shortest time.

If the rebels come back to their senses, gather together and fight stubbornly, it is still unknown who will win.

Under Shen Xi's order, all the officials and soldiers in the city launched fierce attacks. The rebels retreated all the way and could not achieve effective resistance at all. Chen Xi could only see the flashing of fire and rising smoke from afar through the telescope, and could not even find specific figures.

However, at this time, some people in the south of the city risked their lives to return to their homes and wanted to take away some things... Many of these supplies were arranged by Chenxi and the people in Shaoyang City were also in a difficult situation. They stole the wealth of the government troops, clearly trying to seize food from the tiger's mouth.

Chen Xi shook his head helplessly.

It is actually reasonable for the people who are incompetent and have no vision to do such a thing in order to make themselves and their families fill their stomachs. He shook his head and sighed:

"Well, although this kind of thing happened to me with a low eyelid, it has nothing to do with the overall situation. I just hope that these people will not affect the overall progress of the battle due to small profits!"

This small disharmony did not affect the situation of the war. Then, the officials from the government office and county office followed the instructions of the prefect Zhou Ling and went to the streets and alleys in the south of the city. Their task was to maintain order behind the battlefield. Some of the people who had sneaked into the battle area before were taken down by the officials on the spot, while others hid in Tibet, and the scene was full of chaos.

But from time to time, scattered soldiers of the rebels rushed over. After seeing this, the officials scattered. The people who were taken down secretly were glad and quickly stood up and hid in the house, and dared not show up again.

Chen Xi shook his head secretly: "The Jiangxi and Huguang government troops have not experienced systematic training and have no practical experience. They still cannot take on major tasks in a short period of time. They can still have so many fish that have escaped through so much. Fortunately, they are just rebels in the south who have not seen much. If they were the Tatars on the prairie, these fish that have escaped may change the situation of the war!"

As Chen Xi expected, even if a small number of rebels escaped the intensive offensive of the government army, they just came out to scare the officials and the people, and they had no ability to reverse the unfavorable situation. They rushed into the streets and alleys and tried to escape from other city gates. However, they did not go far away and encountered the following officials and soldiers who followed him and surrendered after a little fight.

Soon, Yun Liu went up the tower to report: "Sir, the rebels were divided and surrounded, and it is expected that they will be completely wiped out soon. At this time, the south city gate was blocked, and some of the rebels who rushed out of the city were also wiped out by the soldiers outside our city... I wonder what you have to give next?"

Chen Xidao: "There is nothing to give, just wait and count the results!"

Although the official army successfully restored the city gate, because many rebels had escaped from the city before, they did not really capture it in one shot. However, Chen Xi did not arrange for the troops to pursue him, because he knew that Su Jingyang's army would come back at any time.

With Su Jingyang guarding the official road, the rebels could only hide in the wilderness and ridges. In the end, there were only a few people who could actually return to the southern rebels to control the territory. As for bringing the goods robbed from Shaoyang back to their villages, it was a pure dream when crossing mountains and ridges.

This war, which seemed to be huge and seemed to be equal in both sides, was actually destined to be the final outcome from the beginning of the war.

Although there was still a final work to be done, Chen Xi had already come down from the tower. He did not take people to the front line to inspect military affairs as he said before, because the newly recovered neighborhoods were not as safe as they thought, and it was very likely that a small group of rebel soldiers would emerge from a certain household and threaten his life.

Chen Xi would rather go back to the temporary camp set up near the government office first and wait for the summary of the results of the battle everywhere.

Yunliu and Xier were responsible for collecting intelligence. First of all, the situation in the city was in the city. Yunliu was most concerned about this. She was very concerned about whether the chaos in the city had subsided and what about the situation of killing and captives.
