Please ask me to be the emperor

Chapter 1017 Departure

Facts have proved that Wang Qiying is quite talented in "wielding swords and guns".

Zhang Shun only dictated it once, and she danced well.

The spring night was short, and Zhang Shun felt that he had not slept much when Gao Guiying woke him up early.

Zhang Shun suspected that she did it on purpose, but there was no evidence.

After the two finally got dressed, they hurried out of the room.

The matter was in a hurry, and it was actually quite difficult to organize it in a short time for the cavalry to come.

First of all, the soldiers and horses should move forward before food and grass are used.

But the problem of military rations was the biggest problem. It was not that Zhang Shun's supply of grain and grass was not available, but that the transportation of grain and grass could not meet the speed of the cavalry.

Secondly, there is the selection of cavalry, which is also a very troublesome thing.

Nowadays, the composition of Zhang Shun's troops is very complicated.

There are the original troops from the headquarters, the rebel troops who have newly joined him, and the Yulin generals and generals who have just surrendered.

Since then, the forces in Yulin City have been intertwined, and if there is a slight change, the whole situation may collapse.

And what is the key to solving these two problems?

Of course, it is Zhang Shun's transfer and retention of personnel.

Zhang Shun had already made a plan.

The first one is to mobilize the servants of the generals to guard against anyone taking the opportunity to cause trouble when he is not in Yulin.

The second item is to recruit newly surrendered rebels and elite officers and soldiers.

In this era, both officers and soldiers and the rebels had the same character. They basically relied on a small number of elites to control their troops.

Zhang Shun's move can be regarded as removing the firepower from under the cauldron and directly cutting off the foundation of their double-mindedness.

In this way, on the premise of ensuring the combat effectiveness of the cavalry.

Zhang Shun balanced the interests of various factions and finally decided to entrust the "Crash General" Li Zicheng with a thousand cavalry, the "Huntianxing" Zhang Tianlin with a thousand cavalry, Yu Chongxiao with a thousand cavalry, Zuo Guangxian with a thousand cavalry and the elite servants of the generals with a thousand cavalry. Led by his mother-in-law Wang Qiying.

"No, no!" Gao Guiying said uneasily when she saw this situation.

"We are all outsiders. If something happens, what will you do, King Shun?"

"Who are you calling an outsider?" Wang Qiying was unhappy after hearing this, "We are husband and wife, who are you?"

On their wedding night, she even kicked out her first-in-law Huatou.

In the end, I didn’t expect that I wasn’t even injured, and I was really pissed off.

Now that I see this maid who takes care of Zhang Shun all day long, I can't help feeling a little jealous.

"Okay, okay, Guiying was originally my concubine. She just wanted to take care of me, so she didn't want her title to stay with me!" Seeing this, Zhang Shun didn't know what Wang Qiying was thinking, so he quickly comforted her.

"The princess? Then what am I?" Wang Qiying immediately grasped the key point.

In the Ming Dynasty, the principal wife of a prince was also called the principal concubine. How could she have imagined that Zhang Shun would add the title of queen to it.

"You? You are the second concubine!" Zhang Shun said with a smile.

"No, I want to be a royal concubine too!" Wang Qiying grabbed Zhang Shun's arm and jumped up and down.

"Then it depends on your performance!" Zhang Shun chuckled, then turned to Gao Guiying and said, "In that case, you go to Lu Xiangsheng to borrow a thousand cavalry, and you will lead them for the time being. Do you feel relieved now?"

"You don't trust me?" Wang Qiying frowned, unhappy.

"No, no!" Zhang Shun whispered quickly when he saw that Gao Guiying had left happily.

"I'm worried about her. Everyone has left. What if she does something in Yulin City?"

"Ah? Don't lie to me!" The corners of Wang Qiying's mouth suddenly turned up.

Hehe, with your small rank, I can beat ten of you!

Zhang Shun smiled slightly, and then went to persuade Zhang Fengyi and Lu Xiangsheng to stay in Yulin City for the time being to stabilize the situation for him.

Many of these trivial matters are easier said than done.

A group of people waited until the afternoon and then set off slowly.

From Yulin to Ningxia along the border wall, in addition to large and small fortresses, you generally need to pass through Jingbian, Anbian, Ningxia Weiwei, Xingwu and other places.

If they were fighting all the way, let alone reaching Ningxia within ten days, I'm afraid Zhang Shun might not be able to do it even if he gave him another month.

Fortunately, isn't there a "traitor" here?

Although Zhang Shun is the coach of this kind of team, on the surface it is Yansui Commander-in-Chief Yu Chongxiao as the coach, and other Shaanxi Commander-in-Chief Zuo Guangxian, veteran Wang Shiqin, young general Xiao Si and others serve as assistants.

Along the way, we encountered the inspections of the generals guarding Yansui Middle Road, the left guarding Yansui West Road, and the right guarding Ningxia East Road.

Yu Chongxiao took out the handwritten military orders from Zhang Bojing, the governor of Yansui, and the military orders from Zu Dabi, the commander-in-chief of Ningxia, and claimed: "It is heard that the thieves are planning to attack Ningxia. The governor specially sent me to do double duty to assist Ningxia governor Wang Ji to defeat the thieves."

Those generals whose positions are already lower than those of Yu Chongxiao, Zuo Guangxian and others, how could they dare to ask in detail?

There are also generals like Wang Shiqin and Xiao Si. Even if Yu Chongxiao and Zuo Guang became thieves first, can Yulin generals still become thieves?

At any rate, someone asked strangely: "Where did Zu Zongzong go? Why didn't you follow him?"

"He? He is still as reckless as before. Unfortunately, he was injured by a thief and is recovering from his injuries in Yulin City!" Zuo Guangxian heard the words and then added, and the man was speechless.

The food and fodder needed by these six thousand cavalrymen were naturally provided as usual along the way. Who would dare to ask Yu Chongxiao for it?

So the rebels ate and drank all the way to Ningxia City.

Unfortunately, no one stopped him from checking carefully. Zu Dabi was carried in a car and tied up all the way without saying a word.

Gao Guiying and Wang Qiying originally wanted to be jealous.

As a result, once on the road, not to mention the food and shelter on the road, the two of them had to restrain the soldiers from time to time to prevent anyone from leaving the team.

Morning and night, they were so busy that they didn't even bother to think about anything. Only then did the two of them realize how powerful Zhang Fengyi was.

Everything was going smoothly, but as soon as they reached the Ningxia rearguard, the rebels ran into trouble.

It turns out that this Ningxia guard is actually a thousand Huamachi guarding Qianhu Station.

Huamachi is the gateway to the borders of Ning, Gu, Lan and Jing. It controls Shuofang and covers the inner county with its wings. It is also dangerous to the north.

Precisely because this place has such important strategic significance, this place is so confident in rectifying the Ningxia Hedong military grain road that it refuses to release grain.

The Ningxia defenders are nearly 300 miles from Ningxia city. If there is no food, wouldn't the rebels be in big trouble?

"What's going on? Did the other party find any clues?" Zhang Shun couldn't help but frowning and asked.

"No, it's just to embarrass others!" Wang Shiqin couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this, "King Shun didn't know something. When the Ming Dynasty mobilized its troops, there was always a place to distribute food and grass."

"But these days, the landlords don't have enough food left!"

"Everyone's life is very tight. If you give it to others, you won't have enough to eat, so there is a strange phenomenon of refusing to provide food and grass."

So it's no wonder that when Zhang Shun fought with the officers and soldiers, he often found that the officers and soldiers often moved slowly, but this was the reason.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shun couldn't help but laugh and said: "This is easy to hear, just listen to my orders, and I will make the military ration road look good in a while!"
