Chapter 292

Besides, Shi Heng took 40000 troops out of Langfang. When he came to a wilderness, he was attacked all the time like a living target. There is a short bow near and a long bow far away. When he sent limited cavalry to pursue him, the other party slipped faster than the rabbit.

The tactics of disturbing him when you go, stopping him, and chasing him make Shi Heng's mouth blister. It's really inexhaustible, but there's no better way.

Originally, the army could arrive in half a day on the road of dozens of kilometers, but it took more than a day until it came to Tianjin Wei in the evening of the next day. As soon as he entered here, the scene he saw gave Shi Heng a feeling of being played and cheated.

The Ming army is still standing guard at the Acropolis gate of Tianjin. The people in the city walk as usual and in good order.

Where is the slightest bit of being attacked and looking like rescue? Shi Heng, who couldn't understand what was going on, sent someone to call the Baihu officials guarding the city. Then he learned that the Japanese samurai had suddenly disappeared as early as four days ago. As for where they had gone, they didn't know. On this matter, they also sent express horses to inform the capital.

It's just obvious that the fast horse must have had an accident. Otherwise, it's impossible to miss governor Shiheng who is rushing here.

"Ran away? Disappeared?" Shi Heng didn't think about why he didn't meet the fast horse passing the news all the way. Now he thought about why these Japanese warriors would disappear. Could they really escape from heaven?

"Have you searched in the city?" that is, he has entered the Tianjin guard and ensured the safety here. Then his job has been successfully completed. Next, he will consider how to expand the war results. At least catch some Japanese samurai, preferably alive, and can take them back to the capital to offer prisoners. In this way, his position in the army will be more stable.

"This... No." the garrison officer shook his head in embarrassment. In fact, with this strength in his hands, he did not dare to do such things. He was naturally happy that the Japanese army did not appear. How could he take the initiative to look for it?

"Waste." listening to the answer of the hundred officials, Shi Heng naturally looked unhappy. Then he ordered to take over the urban defense as the governor and asked the whole city to search and arrest from tomorrow morning. He didn't believe that the Japanese army would withdraw so clean. He always had to leave some people to inquire about the news. As long as he could catch them, it would be a great achievement.

Because of the arrival of Shi Heng, Tianjin Wei became more chaotic. The people in the city who had just stopped for a few days found that the reinforcements of the Ming Dynasty rushed into the people's homes, into the shops next to the streets, into the houses and pillars of each government.

It should be said that the Ming army was holding a stomach fire. People always sneak up on me all the way. Now I finally have a chance to vent my anger. I can't be polite. At present, I won't let go of any suspicious place in the city. People who are wrongly caught and wrongly caught fill the whole cell at once.

This naturally makes people's hearts disordered. It is common for old people and children to be bullied, women to be bullied, and adult men to be wrongly caught as spies. There is a miasma and chaos in the city.

These Ming troops are new to the army and have not undergone systematic training. Even in terms of military discipline, their self-discipline is very poor. Now we can openly do some things that we didn't dare to do before. One by one, it seems like a competition to see who robbed more women, who bullied more people, and who extorted more money.

Most of them were sent to governor Shiheng. As a general in charge of the army, the people below will not give less benefits. Looking at the mountains of silver that soon piled up, Shi Heng, who wanted to say something to restrain his men, simply closed his mouth.

If you want the soldiers to work for themselves, you must promise them benefits. As long as they are obedient and obedient to themselves, they will turn a blind eye to some small mistakes.

Under the wanton search, let alone gain, some Japanese descendants who originally lived here were caught, and then they were tortured as spies of the Japanese army. Finally, they were tortured. He would say what you asked him to say.

These real Japanese who hid when Tianjin Wei was attacked by the so-called Japanese army became scapegoats at this moment, and finally caught more than 300 people. Their cases were pushed in front of Shi Heng.

With the harvest, Shi Heng's face finally looked much better. Thinking that the emperor in the capital should be waiting for good news, he wrote a letter in person and wrote down his harvest. For example, he came from the capital and fought dozens of big and small battles with the Japanese army. Finally, he successfully killed more than 10000 people, captured more than 300, and lost more than 10000 people in his own army.

The written war report can also be said to be an application form. He arranged to send it to the capital by express horse, and he continued to do power and blessing in Tianjin Weizhong, waiting for the emperor's reward, and then found a suitable time to return to the capital as a meritorious hero.

Although the "Japanese army" was not found, the silence in recent days gave Shi Heng the idea that all the enemies fled. In addition, this time he was stationed in the city and was not afraid of the other party's small sneak attack. I think there must be no chance. These Japanese troops with food and accommodation problems should retreat at sea.

After all, he is a teacher from far away. He can't stay in a foreign country without enough supplies. In order to allow these Japanese troops to withdraw, Shi Heng even deliberately ignored the defense line at the port outside the city, but sent less than 100 Ming army soldiers there, and ordered that once the Japanese army was found, don't shake it, but retreat. Just watch from a distance and report back what happened.

On the night after Shi Heng entered the Tianjin guard, the "Japanese army" did appear. The mighty team could not hide. As soon as they appeared, they were found. The hundred Ming army was very obedient and retreated quickly. They saw tens of thousands of people enter the port and then leave in a sea boat that didn't know when to appear.

The "Japanese army" withdrew. Shi Heng was naturally delighted when he learned the news. Although the process of this battle and the difficulty and complexity of the battle were so difficult that he could not really destroy his opponent once from beginning to end, the result was good. They withdrew, and even if their mission was completed, they could finally hand over to the emperor.

Filled with joy, Shi Heng immediately asked people to write a good report. He wanted to tell the emperor and all the officials in the court the good news at the first time. At the same time, he also wanted to take this opportunity to publicize his achievements and take the opportunity to ask for some benefits.

Daming, it is not only the loyalty and courage guild that fights, but also Shi Heng.

Soldiers were sent to pull the more than 300 real Japanese people stationed in Daming in prison cars, and thousands of soldiers returned to the capital. According to Shi Heng's meaning, every place he went, he had to publicize it in a big way, as if he was afraid that others would not know what he did.

The good news went ahead. Kaohsiung was not blocked. The road was smooth. Only that night, the news entered the capital. After Zhu Qiyu, the emperor of the Imperial Palace, learned the news, it was naturally Long Yan Dayue who applauded the case.

This time, governor Shiheng defeated the Japanese army, which means more than winning a war. More importantly, through this battle, as the emperor, he also won the reputation of knowing and employing people. It has greatly consolidated his imperial position. What's more, it can greatly weaken the influence of Zhongdan Gong in the army and the hearts of the people. If one day, he will stabilize everything and won't have so many concerns when he wants to fight against meritorious officials.

After hearing the news, the ministers were both happy and sad.

Naturally, the happy ones were those who supported emperor Daizong and made friends with governor Shiheng. This has been the case in all dynasties. Only when the army stabilizes first can we do other things, have the confidence to do them, and do better.

There are not many sad ministers, only a few. For example, explain Hu Zhen, the Minister of rites, he Wenyuan, the left servant, Wang Zhi, the Minister of officials, and Xu Youzhen, the left servant of the Ministry of punishment.

They are either bright or facing Yang Chendong in their hearts. It was originally thought that the Japanese army's invasion at sea was not so easy to solve, and even had to be loyal and courageous in the end. But now, Shi Heng has caught him. In this way, I'm afraid Yang Chendong's influence will be greatly weakened. Even in the next step, when he wants to move this person, he can have much less concerns.

Although Yang Chendong did nothing, he handed over all his military power after defeating vara. He honestly stayed in Yang family village and taught and educated people. Even the capital rarely came. However, he has always had a great influence in the army and in the hearts of the people. The name of the military God resounds through thousands of miles. It seems that as long as he makes a move, nothing can not be solved.

Now there is a substitute, no wonder people who care about him are so anxious.

Compared with other people's worries, Yang Chendong is much indifferent. When he learned the good news from Shi Heng ahead, he still looked as usual and stood in the main hall room watching Hu Yan, Qiao Yin, Xiang Niangzi and seven sisters playing mahjong there.

Shenxianju still has many programs to arrange. Snow lady stays there. Yang duo, the seventh sister, takes the place and joins in a game.

Even if the seventh sister doesn't come out as a substitute, there are still some backup players. For example, ChunZi!

Just like now, although there are enough people, she still sits on the side honestly and brings everyone tea and water from time to time. She looks very clever.
