Chapter 111: The Current Situation in Henan

On the land of Henan, it can be said that it is as chaotic as a cow's hair.

All the villages that still exist in the current situation have high walls, almost a dock fort. And the rebels wandering all over the country have even more poles.

The people who came to defect to Li Zicheng were all small poles, and most of them were only a thousand people.

And the big pole that has really become the climate will not take the initiative to defect to Li Zicheng, these big cowards, there is soil and flow, the so-called soil, is entrenched in one side, the so-called flow, is to flow back and forth. For example, Yuan Shizhong traveled back and forth to eastern Henan. For example, Li Jiyu started in Dengfeng. Li lentils, entrenched in Suiping. As for the other more or less big guys, there are even a lot. These big cowards all have more than 10,000 soldiers, or run rampant, or entrenched in the cottage. And Yuan Shizhong is just the best of them.

If Li Zicheng can recover them one by one, he can recover hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

"Okay." When Li Zicheng heard Li Xin's words, he was overjoyed and said: "All departments will reorganize their troops and horses, set off tomorrow, and march eastward in a big way." ”

"Yes."

The army marched eastward, and Zhang Xuan had a lot of things to do, especially about Linying, Luo Rucai had already decided that he would not leave Zhang Xuan in Linying, and a stall of affairs in Linying would be handed over to Chuangying to deal with. Naturally, someone will take over everything in Linying. Although Zhang Xuan was reluctant, he also had to admit that if he wanted to have great development, he still had to follow the main force of the righteous army.

Zhang Xuan said goodbye to Luo Rucai, and then took Luo Dai back to Linying overnight. Linying County is still the same, but Zhang Xuan looks a little sad.

"General, you're back." Before Zhang Xuan entered the city, he was recognized and greeted.

Zhang Xuan nodded. The people are actually very simple, and if you do something for them, they will keep it in your heart.

Zhang Xuan easily entered the city, and in the county office, he found Zhang Zhen first.

"How's spring ploughing?" Zhang Xuan asked.

Zhang Xuanxi conquered Xiang County and handed over all the affairs here to Zhang Zhen to deal with, Zhang Zhen was born as a scholar and had been a pro-people official, so it was naturally more than enough to deal with these. However, the most important thing in this time period is spring ploughing.

Food production, in ancient times, cannot be overemphasized.

Therefore, the first thing Zhang Xuan asked when he came back was this.

"Don't worry, my lord, you have arranged farm tools and ploughing cattle before, and everyone has raised them for a winter, isn't it for spring ploughing?" Zhang Zhen said: "All the cultivated land near the county seat, no matter whose it is, has been planted. There will definitely be a good harvest this year. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "Okay, Henan is the granary of the world, as long as the land can produce food, people can live." ”

To live, what a simple and simple idea, Zhang Xuan knows how difficult it is to do this.

"It's all the work of adults." Zhang Zhen said: "If not

It was the adults who made so many preparations, and this year's spring ploughing would not have gone so smoothly. ”

Zhang Xuan suddenly remembered something and said, "How are the preparations for digging a well?" ”

Drilling wells to fight drought is something that Zhang Xuan has always been thinking about, but this one thing seems to be unable to be completed in his hands.

Zhang Zhen said: "During this period of time, spring ploughing is busy, and when this period of time is over, I will start to prepare." You can't miss a big deal. ”

Zhang Xuan sighed slightly and said, "I have something to tell you, I'm leaving." ”

Zhang Qian's expression suddenly froze.

Zhang Xuan turned his head, looked at the Bell and Drum Tower, and said, "King Chuang has determined the eastward direction of the army and attacked Guide. And Luo Shuai won't keep me in Linying. The matter here has to be handed over to someone else, if Brother Zhang wants to stay in Linying, I can recommend ---"

"Not necessarily." Zhang Zhen said: "I have already said before, I am just defecting to you, not to Cao Thief. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "So is the eldest brother willing to follow me?" ”

Zhang Zhen pondered for a while, but couldn't answer.

Zhang Xuan was secretly disappointed in his heart, but he also knew a little in his heart, Zhang Zhen's cooperation with him was just based on his coercion, Zhang Zhen was a little sincere to him, he didn't know it himself, and Zhang Xuan never thought that as soon as the king's anger was released, the whole family would vote.

Zhang Xuan said: "Please also ask the eldest brother to think about it, what is the situation in the world, don't need the younger brother to say, where to go, and ask the eldest brother to think about it." The younger brother went to see how Brother Cao's injuries were and took his leave. ”

After Zhang Xuan finished speaking, he got up and left the county office.

After Zhang Xuan left, Zhang Zhen fell into a long exam. I don't even know that the sun shadow of the world is traveling westward.

"Brother Cao." Zhang Xuan said.

Cao Zongyu is lazily basking in the sun at the moment. There was still a book on his face, and the spring sun gave people a lazy feeling, and Cao Zongyu seemed to be in a state of half-sleep, and after listening to Zhang Xuan's words, he took the book on his face and said, "General." ”

When you speak, you have to get up.

Zhang Xuan pressed Cao Zongyu and said, "You look much better." What happened to the injury? ”

Cao Zongyu raised his hand, made a gesture of holding the scroll, and said, "It's already done, and you can go into battle at any time." ”

"Go into battle, a fart." A voice sounded, with a thick Hubei accent, Zhang Xuan turned his head, but witnessed Li Zhengfang, as soon as Li Zhengfang saw Zhang Xuan, his nose was not a nose, and his eyes were not eyes and said: "Cao Zongyu is fate, his foundation is good, he can be regarded as picking up a small life, but there is too much bleeding, and it hurts his vitality, from now on, don't say that he will go into battle, even if he can't do a little heavy work, even if he fights with others, he can't pass three knives, after three knives, he doesn't need others to do it, he has no strength himself." ”

When Zhang Xuan heard this, his eyes suddenly became a little rosy. When I thought of Cao Zongyu's previous vigorous and heroic posture

, After listening to what Li Zhengfang said, he couldn't help but have red circles in his eyes, and said, "Brother Cao, it's all my fault." ”

"Say what?" Cao Zongyu said: "In the world, people are dying all the time, is it all your fault." When I was a child, my ancestors said that I was brave and ruthless, but I was just a general, and now I can't go into battle, and from now on, I will be in command, and I can't say that I can achieve the life of a famous general. Just remember what we're working so hard for. ”

"Yes." Zhang Xuan said: "To the world is peaceful. ”

Li Zhengfang listened to it on the side, and his heart was slightly moved, but he still sneered and said: "Don't talk big, let me cherish the vein, almost, just leave quickly, don't get in the way of me." ”

As he spoke, he grabbed Cao Zongyu's hand and checked his pulse for a moment.

Zhang Xuan said: "Mr. Li, how is Brother Cao? ”

"Alright." Li Zhengfang said: "From now on, make it at sunrise, rest at sunset, nourish three meals at a time, don't be furious, sad and happy, take a few days out of a month, acupuncture, I will protect you for a long life." Otherwise---"

"How else?" Zhang Xuan said.

"Otherwise, it's okay when you're young." Li Zhengfang said: "When I was young, I was full of qi and blood, and it was probably okay. But after getting old. Old wounds come back and make life worse than death. Don't say I didn't remind you. ”

"Hahaha." Cao Zongyu said: "In the troubled times, if you only want to make a name for yourself in the world, do you still want to die in bed? The miracle doctor knows. Who do I look up to the most? ”

Li Zhengfang didn't talk at all, got up and said, "The old man has a lot of patients, so I don't have time to talk to you." ”

Li Zhengfang put Cao Zongyu aside, and Cao Zongyu's face suddenly became a little sneering.

"Who does Brother Cao admire?" Zhang Xuan hurriedly answered.

"King Kaiping." Cao Zongyu said: "If you can live like King Kaiping's life, why bother to be 100 years old in the world." ”

King Kaiping is often in spring. He is a first-class fierce general under Zhu Yuanzhang, known as Chang 100,000. He died young during the Northern Expedition.

Zhang Xuan said: "Brother Cao's ambition is commendable. He paused slightly and said, "We're leaving Linying." ”

Cao Zongyu was slightly stunned, and then returned to normal, although the news came suddenly, it was also expected by Cao Zongyu. Although he was still very well informed about the front line in Linying, as soon as he saw Xiangcheng, he knew that the army would not stay in this area for a long time, but he didn't know where to go?

"The march of the army is decided?" Cao Zongyu said

"It's settled." Zhang Xuan said: "The army is heading east and attacking the prefectures and counties near Defu. According to Li Xin's meaning, he had to find a way to join forces with Xiao Yuan's camp and besiege Kaifeng when the time came. Bring all kinds of soldiers and horses from the imperial court to rescue, and then fight a decisive battle under Kaifeng City. World War I decided the ownership of the Central Plains. will take the land of the Central Plains and lay the foundation for the rebels. ”
