Chapter 43

Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong didn't travel fast because they had to march at the same time, and they walked 20 or 30 Li a day. Zhang pan was similar to Zhang pan in the western line.

However, although the speed of the two route armies was slow, it was more conducive to the reorganization of the area.

The loss of Jiangcheng in Houjin Town, under the deliberate action of Mao Wenlong, has spread like the wind at full speed.

Since then, the Jin Dynasty itself did not control this area for a long time, mainly because of this era. Zhenjiang, including the vast southeast of Liaoning Province, was densely forested, sparsely populated, with a small population and little cultivated land. Although it was the gateway to North Korea, it belonged to the cold and bitter land.

For a long time, the main focus of the later Jin Dynasty was on Shenyang and Liaoyang, the big cities in Liaoning Province. A lot of preparations were made for this. In Zhenjiang area, there was less natural rain and dew.

Under such circumstances, Mao Wenlong's strong entry into Zhenjiang was like an accurate "black tiger takes out the heart". In Zhenjiang area, Houjin has almost collapsed.

On the way from zhenjiangcheng to Shuangshan, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong basically did not face resistance, and even sporadic resistance was rare. Their journey was quite smooth and their morale was extremely high.

However, when he was forced into Shuangshan, news came from the intelligence network ahead that Tong Yangzhen's Zhenjiang department had heard that Mao Wenlong had sent an army to attack him, and had already fled to Haizhou. However, Miao Yizhen, the "sitting Huzi" of Shuangshan, had no such good morale.

Tong's Zhenjiang Department dares to escape, that is because the Tong family is the Late Jin's relatives, someone is covered, and if Miao Yizhen escapes, he must not escape.

However, he was not stupid. With all his troops, property and family members, he retreated to a salt field on the south coast, which was also the property of the local gentry he had robbed. He was prepared to take advantage of the coastal terrain of the saltern to resist.

After all, there was no one in the court. Even if he wanted to run away, he had to pretend to fight with the Ming army.

"In Yuanqing, Miao Yizhen's troops are no more than a thousand. In recent days, on the way to the salt field, many people have escaped. We can work together and take them down."

After sending someone to control Shuangshan, Chen Zhong discussed with Li Yuanqing on the way to the south.

Li Yuanqing nodded. In fact, the Zhenjiang Department of the Tong family fled, which means that the backbone of the later Jin Dynasty in Zhenjiang area has collapsed. Unless the latter Jin Dynasty sent troops from Liaoyang and Shenyang to clean up the mess, the situation in Zhenjiang is completely under the control of Mao Wenlong.

"Elder brother Chen, we have caught turtles in a jar. We don't have to rush. There are too many new recruits. We just take advantage of this time to clean up more."

"Yuanqing, I'm afraid the dog will jump over the wall in a hurry. If he wants to run, he will be in trouble." Chen Zhongsheng is afraid that Miao Yizhen will run away.

However, Li Yuanqing had already figured out Miao Yizhen's pulse, which was also the sorrow of most of the Han military flag generals in the later Jin Dynasty. They fled without fighting, and the master and son would never let them go, even Li Yongfang, the son-in-law of Fushun.

"No, brother Chen. This guy can't run. "

……

It took them two and a half days to get to the seaside salt field.

As expected by Li Yuanqing, Miao Yizhen did not dare to run away. Instead, he stood by and did enough defensive works to demolish all the buildings around the salt field, and the walls were clear.

The salt field is located in a narrow bay. Most of the main buildings are built on a hill by the sea. There are thick castle walls around it, and there is only a gate on the front.

In this way, although not comparable to the city, but because of its small space, compact buildings, and mostly built by solid rocks on the sea, it is really easy to defend and hard to attack, just like a turtle shell.

Chen Zhong didn't expect that the salt field was in such a terrain. He did not have powerful guns or heavy siege equipment. If he wanted to attack hard, he would lose a lot.

However, Miao Yizhen also showed a flaw.

"Yuanqing, such a terrain, it is unwise to attack hard. You see, the dock is behind the mountain, and Miao Yizhen's boat is there. We can burn the dog's boat first and cut off his way back

Li Yuanqing frowned, thought for a moment, but shook his head, "brother Chen, this matter can not be urgent. If we burn the boat and cut off Miao Yizhen's back road, there will be no hope for him. He will defend the castle. At that time, we can only make a strong attack, and we must pay a lot of price. These children are good men. Too many people have never seen blood, so they can't sacrifice here in vain. "

Chen Zhong couldn't help but say, "Yuanqing, what should I do? Are we going to open our eyes and watch the thief Miao Yizhen at ease

Li Yuanqing's eyes narrowed slightly, "that may not be. Elder brother Chen, although the general asked us to quickly take the Shuangshan side, in fact, there was no time limit for us. What's more, we've taken down Shuangshan now? "

Chen Zhong also understood what Li Yuanqing meant, "Yuanqing, you mean..."

Li Yuanqing said with a smile, "Miao Yizhen, such a thief, is not worth wasting even a human life. I have a way to break the tortoise shell of dog day... "

……

Instead, they went up and down to the fortress of Li Yuanqing, and they did not attack the fortress.On the beach around the Bay, there are salt fields with potholes and traces of boiling salt and drying salt everywhere. But when the war comes, it has been abandoned.

Li Yuanqing was a mile away from the castle. He asked the soldiers to level out an open space and train under the eyes of Miao Yizhen.

So is Chen Zhong.

At the beginning, Miao Yizhen was so nervous that he had to go up to the castle wall to check on it. He was afraid that the Ming army would attack the city. However, after a few days, the Ming army only practiced, but did not cut down trees and make siege equipment. He did not look like he wanted to attack the city. He could not help but think about it and was haggard.

He also knew that in recent years, he had done all his evil deeds. Once he was caught by the Ming army, he would have no chance to live. But if he ran like this, Houjin would never let him off, which made him in an extremely embarrassing situation.

Li Yuanqing naturally knows this, which is Miao Yizhen's seven inch.

To be frank, if Li Yuanqing changes to Miao Yizhen's seat, how can he manage these many? As long as you have money and soldiers in your hand, even if you are a pirate at sea, you can at least have a chance to make a comeback again. If you die, you will die.

But how many people can do it easily?

Before the last step, Miao Yizhen could not let go of the glory and wealth that Houjin had given him.

Three days later, Zhang panbu also arrived at the salt field.

His speed was much slower than that of Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong, mainly because there were many villages and towns on the western route. It took him some time to appease and subdue him.

Seeing that Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong didn't attack the city for a long time, Zhang pan was puzzled, "Lao Chen, Yuanqing, are you all spending these days here?"

Chen Zhong nodded with a wry smile, "Miao Yizhen has a tight defense and is not wise to attack by force."

Zhang pan looked at the castle not far away, but also some frowned, "this dog day's, it will really be a shrinking turtle."

Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "if elder brother Zhang is not in a hurry, he can also train with us here."

Zhang pan didn't have much contact with Li Yuanqing, but it was also an understanding. However, after these battles, especially the battle of Zhenjiang, Li Yuanqing made great contributions and Zhang pan knew more about Li Yuanqing. At this time, seeing Li Yuanqing so relaxed, he couldn't help laughing: "Yuanqing, do you have a strategy to defeat the enemy? What are you doing hiding? Tell me. Let my brother listen to it. "

Li Yuanqing smiles, "it's very simple. It is divided into parts and disintegrates from the inside. The development of our army up to now, it is all the brothers who give their lives in exchange. It's hard to hope for a good life. There's no need to waste the lives of brothers for such a thief. "

Zhang pan deeply thought that he nodded, "Yuan Qing is right. I'm afraid the general

Li Yuanqing a smile, "brother Zhang don't have to worry, according to this situation, in three days, Miao Yizhen can't hold on."

……

Although the Ming army did not attack the city, Miao Yizhen in the castle was burning with fire.

In recent days, not only his wife and concubines are going to make trouble, but even the soldiers at the bottom of the line are also beginning to feel popular.

Miao Yizhen's house keeping capital is his hundred family servants, which is the capital he saved in the Ming Dynasty.

Over the past few years, these servants have gained a lot of benefits by following Miao Yizhen, and almost all of them have added some family property.

When Miao Yizhen fled, she also told the servants that if they were caught by the Ming army, the Ming army would not let them go.

But the fact is, since the Ming army captured Zhenjiang, in addition to being loyal to Houjin, the common people, even the family members of the Han Army flag, have not committed any crimes. This makes Miao Yizhen's statement about "settling accounts after autumn" is not tenable.

Especially since this morning, the Ming army began to shoot a large number of arrows into the castle, but it was not a lethal bow and arrow, but a letter arrow.

The content is very simple. The Ming army only punished Miao Yizhen, the chief villain. For other people, as long as they are not heinous, they will never correct them.

These letters and arrows immediately burst into a pot in the castle. Let alone ordinary soldiers, even many of Miao Yizhen's servants began to be ready to move.

After all, only a dozen of his cronies have gained the most from Miao Yizhen in recent years, while most of the ordinary servants, even if they are good, are just a little broth. The Ming army has made it very clear that as long as they are not heinous, they can be forgiven.

As the general situation is already like this, who would like to die with Miao Yizhen?

From the morning, just to the evening, Miao Yizhen did not insist on a day, can not sit still.

In the hall of the castle, Miao Yizhen ordered people to guard the door strictly, and only a dozen confidants were summoned to discuss in secret.

"My Lord, the Ming army is powerful and despicable. At this time, people are floating in the castle. I think the castle can't be defended. We still have thirty-six plans. It's better to leave. It's important to save your life first. "

"Yes. My Lord, the green hills are here. I'm not afraid of no firewood. Who is Mao Wenlong? It's just a mess. Can he defeat the tens of thousands of iron cavalry of Da Jin? My Lord, as long as we have someone in our hands, we won't worry about not having enough food to eat when Da Jin calls back. ""My lord..."

Seeing that her confidants all agreed, Miao Yizhen sighed a long sigh and nodded heavily, "this is also the meaning of this. That is to say, we should not neglect it. Tonight, we will act... "

……

It was dark, and most of the soldiers in the castle were asleep except for the night watchmen.

At this time, at the back door of the castle, a series of figures came out of the castle in a hurry. A figure kept whispering, "hurry up, hurry up. Damn it. Come on. Keep quiet. hurry up. I'll throw you into the sea to feed the fish. "

"Master, people can't walk so fast." A charming girl's voice was coquettish.

The figure wanted to give her a cruel slap, but after thinking about it, he could not bear it, so he had to come back to support her and run to the wharf.

What they didn't notice was that not far away, behind a dark reef, Zhang pan, Chen Zhong and Li Yuanqing had been there for a long time.

"I think Miao Yizhen is a character. It seems that he is going to die in a woman's belly tonight." Zhang pan scorned the sneer.

Chen Zhongdao: "Yuanqing, almost, let's do it."

Li Yuanqing saw that the more than 100 figures almost got on the boat, nodded and waved to the shunzi on one side, "inform Wang Hai, do it."
