Such powerful generals attacked the bandits with their young and strong, and repeatedly defeated the many with few, and the famous generals in ancient times were just like this. Although they are only a temporary official of thousands of households, what the Ming Dynasty needs now is such a powerful general, and Qingyun is sure to go straight to the top.

Thinking of him, Chen Yongfu himself, he fought hard, but he was promoted from the deputy general to the general. Although he had such a powerful general, defeating the bandits and resolutely repelling Kaifeng seemed to be in front of him, but this man, Dapeng, was on the same turmoil, and he, the Henan general, could not be able to suppress the limelight.

Chen Yongfu has mixed feelings, so it is inevitable.

After leaving the Zhou royal palace, Chen Yongfu got on the horse, Gao Mingheng was sitting in a sedan chair, and he had nothing to say. When he arrived at the governor's yamen, Gao Mingheng got out of the sedan chair. Chen Yongfu was about to say goodbye, and then he heard Gao Mingheng say, "General Chen entered the room and talk."

Chen Yongfu could not refuse, so he dismounted and entered the governor's yamen with Gao Mingheng. A servant brought tea. Gao Mingheng retreated and then said, "You are the general of Henan, and the official is the governor of Henan, and they all have the responsibility to defend the territory. The situation is now difficult, and the thieves have been surrounded by Kaifeng for a long time, and reinforcements have not arrived. The northern Tartars are becoming increasingly arrogant. At the beginning of the year, Songshan and Tashan are all gone, and Ning Jin is completely lost. Now a powerful general has been released, as the King of Zhou said, the merits and rewards are indispensable. Such figures must be won, and you must not be punished at this time. Otherwise, if you set up a mountain in anger, wouldn't it be more fierce than the thief?"

As a rank-level official, Gao Mingheng was ups and downs in the officialdom, so what did he not understand? Since the Ming Dynasty, civil servants have been high above the top, but now they are different from the past. The world is in chaos, so they must rely on martial artists. Although he hated martial artists to be vulgar and bad, like Zuo Liangyu. Even Zuo Liangyu is not worse than thieves. Can the emperor tolerate it?

When the jackals on both sides rise, they use hawks and dogs, and when the jackals kill them, they just cook dogs.

Let him be crazy for the time being, and wait until the situation is stable, and when you look back, you can do some tricks to deal with it!

"The words of the King of Zhou are good words." Gao Mingheng said again: "I want to write a letter with you to protect him some benefits. It is not a bad thing to put down some favors on his fingers. Isn't this person temporarily appointing the Qianhu official? Then I will implement it for him first, not only to take a real position, but also to promote him. Hasn't he won many battles? The Qianhu official is too small, so what if he gives him a commander? In this way, you and I have the power to promote it. It is not a waste of time. The emperor knows it and will also give him a benefit. Otherwise, if you don't do anything, wouldn't you be blind and dereliction of duty?"

Chen Yongfu couldn't help but be convinced when he heard this.

If this is true, I'm afraid I can still gain some benefits. After all, I have the power to promote it. This person is a member of the Henan general system. Ying Yi made contributions. As his superior, Chen Yongfu and Gao Mingheng naturally also made contributions.

It is because everyone carries the flower sedan chair. If you get the benefits, and you will be good at making a strong general, wouldn’t it be a kill of two birds with one stone?

However, Chen Yongfu wandered for a moment and said, "If the commander of the guards is promoted at this time, when the imperial edict is issued, would he be the general of a town again?"

Gao Mingheng didn't know why Chen Yongfu was worried, but laughed: "I haven't seen many people in the world who can fight. Now that someone who can fight is released, the emperor must be nervous. He wants to lead his troops to attack the thieves. The thieves are powerful and promoted to the general. What's more... what the young general said before, he already has more than ten thousand troops. If he doesn't become the general, how should he be placed? Besides, his achievements are enough. Didn't Zuo Liangyu die in battle? Huguang lost the general, and there was a vacant position."

When Chen Yongfu heard this, he couldn't help but show a hint of joy.

He only said that Ying Yi was a general in his jurisdiction. If he was promoted, what would he do as a general? Gao Mingheng's words dispelled his worries.

Gao Mingheng Nixu said leisurely: "If a thief is a cancer, hundreds of thousands of millions of ways, it will be a thief that can be defeated, but it may not be able to be captured and killed. What's more, there are thieves in Huainan and return to the thief? Promoting him to the general of Huguang is the advantage."

So the two reported jointly that they had known that Ying Yi was good at fighting and was promoted to the commander of the guards because of his merits. Now they are restrained by the treacherous thieves, but they are short of soldiers and food, so they asked the emperor to write to the emperor.

He asked people to hurry up for 800 miles, take out Kaifeng City, and head towards the capital.

...

Zhang Shi left Kaifeng, avoided many bandits, and the light cavalry followed him. He finally rushed back to Xiangcheng in the middle of the night. Zhu Bingkun and three other generals were waiting in the tent.

After hearing Zhang Shixu's statement, Zhu Bingkun and others started to ponder.

After a while, Zheng Wu said: "It seems a bit difficult to send them away."

Zhu Bingkun said: "I think it's a bad idea. The fief of King Zhou is Kaifeng. How could he leave the fief without any necessity? Governor Gao Mingheng said he was responsible for defending the territory. I think he saw hope and was unwilling to leave."

"What should I do?" Zheng Jiu glared and said, "It's better to kill him!"

Zheng Wu glared at him: "Don't talk nonsense."

Then he said, "Old Zhu, you and I are not good at making plans. It is better to ask the lord to make a decision on this matter."

Zhu Bingkun sighed: "Well. Then don't worry, just practice with the thief. After just a few days, the soldiers under his command were eager to try again. Isn't Liu Fangliang in Zhuxian Town? Let's meet him."

Zheng Wu also acted intentionally, but said: "The lord repeatedly told me to focus on training and defense..."

Zhu Bingkun laughed: "Isn't it also a training for soldiers when fighting thieves? It doesn't take a big fight. You and I will take turns to practice. After all, elite soldiers are not trained, but fights. Isn't the lord saying that too?"

Zheng Wu was immediately moved: "It's good to have this. If you fight small but not big, as long as you don't touch the bottom line of breaking the thieves, you can treat it as training. Here are four soldiers and horses, one every two days, and go to Zhuxian Town to practice."

Ying Yi did not have too many restrictions on the generals under his command, and often proposed a strategic policy. As for specific matters, he would not accept the orders of the outside king.

As long as it does not violate his strategic intentions, everything else can be done.

It is also a means to mobilize the enthusiasm of the generals and officials - Ying Yi was not afraid that the generals and officials under his command would lose control. He might have been a little worried before the humanitarian plan was formed, but now it is not.

In the following days, Zhu Bingkun and others well implemented their military training methods. Every two days, a crew of 2,500 people were sent to attack Zhuxian Town, harassing and attacking, making Liu Fangliang feel restless.

Zhang Shi's night-delayed part was running with all his strength to monitor all changes around him. Once Li Chuang had any movement, Zhu Bingkun could react immediately.

Liu Fangliang stationed troops in Zhuxian Town, with nearly 100,000 people. However, most of them were cannon fodders. The thieves had been surrounded by Kaifeng for a long time, and the food was gone for Kaifeng, and the thieves were not much better. In addition to the old camp, they were fed up with food, and ordinary thieves only ate bran and drank thin. Just like cannon fodders and refugees, it was amazing to drink a bowl of clear soup and rice porridge every day.

No matter how many people there are, what's the use?

There were only 2,500 soldiers in Xiangcheng, but they were all strong and brave. No matter how many thieves there were on the periphery, they would be defeated in one rush. This made Liu Fangliang's main old thief panic.

Liu Fangliang wanted to chase after him many times, but when he led the main old thief to come out, he often had already run away.

I only had one patch on it, but was fired back by artillery fire, but I didn't see any merit.

Liu Fangliang had no choice but to ask Li Chuang for help. After all, it was just harassment, not a big war, and most of the losses were subordinates and ordinary thieves, not hurting their muscles.

It's just too disgusting and makes people feel angry.

Liu Fangliang felt that being passive was not a solution, so he took the initiative to attack after thinking about it. He turned the three thousand old thieves into a battalion of horses, and on the grounds of Xiangcheng County, Xuzhou to Zhuxian Town, they were traveling back and forth with the troops under Ying Yi, which was very lively.

But in less than seven or eight days, Liu Fangliang stopped this stupid behavior - in just a few days, half of his old camp was eaten up!

Liu Fangliang's heartache was tangled and twisted.

Ying Yi's army was not without losses, especially Zheng Jiuxinli's army, which lost three or four hundred people three times in turn. It was far inferior to the other three.
