Chapter 18 Xuzhou

"Hahaha." Zhang Xuan laughed and said: "Although Zhang is not good, it is not like this, but I say it, whether General Jin is willing to listen to it." After listening to it, it's not too late to decide to stay. ”

"General Zhang, please speak." Jin Shenghuan didn't look back, just pointed the back of his head at Zhang Xuan.

"As I said before, rewarding and punishing meritorious deeds is the key to military law, although General Jin has contributed to the imperial court, but he has no merit to the righteous army, and he has come to a high position, I am afraid that it will also attract the attention of others, but it is not the way to preserve. I also understand what General Jin meant, General Jin is a general's talent, and he is really wronged by the general, but there is a way, which can have the best of both worlds. Zhang Xuan said.

Jin Shenghuan pulled out his horse and turned around and said, "I don't know what the solution is?" ”

Jin Shenghuan was even more reluctant to talk about the collapse than Zhang Xuan, and his face softened.

Zhang Xuan said: "As long as General Jin makes a great contribution to the righteous army, General Jin has in the official army, and I will give General Jin a lot?" ”

"Vote?" Jin Shenghuan said secretly in his heart. But he had already decided to surrender in his heart, and in turn dealt with the officers and soldiers, without a little psychological burden, and said: "What kind of great achievement? ”

Zhang Xuan said: "Xuzhou." General Jin entered Xuzhou, for our righteous army to respond, after Xuzhou, I also General Jin 5,000 horses, in the right army, only under General Yuan, General Yang, for the fourth person in our army. I don't know, is General Kim willing to do it? ”

Zhang Xuan came up with this method temporarily.

Jin Shenghuan is not an honest person, and he will fight back if he is not careful, but at this moment, when he is employing people, as long as he can fight, he will use anyone. However, the vicious dog must also be chained, and Zhang Xuan must restrain Jin Shenghuan.

If Jin Shenghuan can really offer Xuzhou City, Zhang Xuan will not break his promise, but the plan for Jin Shenghuan's 5,000 cavalry cannot all be Jin Shenghuan's old troops, I think Qiu Lei took away a lot of cavalry, and gathered some Shandong cavalry to Jin Shenghuan. Of course, Zhang Xuan's sand is indispensable.

What the? What do you say Jin Shenghuan can't do if he can't make money?

If he is dead, he will die, anyway, Jin Shenghuan's thousands of cavalry are in hand, and Zhang Xuan still cares if he lives or dies.

Jin Shenghuan's face was cloudy, and he muttered for a while, then suddenly dismounted and fell to the ground, saying, "The last general, Jin Shenghuan, meets the general." ”

Zhang Xuan hurriedly stepped forward, helped him up, and said: "I know that with General Jin's ability, he is not a person who has lived under the people for a long time, only General Jin has made great contributions, I will definitely recommend General Jin to King Wu, and there will be no time for General Jin to stand alone in the future." ”

Jin Shenghuan didn't speak, but nodded secretly in his heart. Jin Shenghuan was quite conceited in his heart, and at this moment he secretly said in his heart: "If this Zhang Xuan can not ignore my merits, it is not a bad thing to be under Zhang Xuan's command." ”

"General Zhang, without further ado, it's better to arrange it earlier." Jin Shenghuan said: "The officers and soldiers are smart, we can't hide it from people in this big battle, if it takes a long time, Qiu Lei will probably be suspicious." ”

Jin Shenghuan has changed his position at this moment, and it seems that he is wholeheartedly thinking about the righteous army.

In order to gain Zhang Xuan's trust, Jin Shenghuan left his son Jin Shiming as a hostage, and agreed that three days later, on June 23, the army would wait for the Xuzhou city gate to open. If the city gate is not opened on June 23, Zhang Xuan will lead his troops to the east and will not stay under the city of Xuzhou for a long time.

Jin Shenghuan agreed to come down and only took these 300 soldiers to Xuzhou.

Zhang Xuan immediately rectified the soldiers and horses in Fangcun, included Jin Shiming and others in the Linying camp, and was guarded by Deng He, and distributed most of Jin Shenghuan's thousands of horses to Yang Shenzu.

Zhang Xuan also distributed it to the battalions, with more than 100 horsemen in each battalion for scouting, and also distributed hundreds of horsemen to Yuan Shizhong, and the remaining 1,000 horsemen were left to be led by Qin Meng. It can be said that he eats dry and quiet, and does not leave Jin Shenghuan at all.

Of course, what Zhang Xuan swallowed, not only Jin Shenghuan, but also the Shandong soldiers left by Qiu Lei, there were probably more than 10,000 soldiers who didn't know where to go, and became the so-called guerrilla scattered brave, and the remaining prisoners, Zhang Xuan gave a part of Yuan Shizhong, and the rest were all included in the back camp and used as people's husbands. It is under the jurisdiction of Zhang Su.

It's not that Zhang Xuan looks down on these people, these people have been in the army for a long time, but they have long been frightened by the Donglu, and after not going through strict selection, Zhang Xuan is not at ease to fill these soldiers into his own department, and when he meets the Donglu on the battlefield that day, he can't say that it will shake the heart of the army.

Moreover, after Zhang Xuan was in Xiao County, he had already filled the vacancy, and there was nothing to add for a while.

Even Cheng Jikong got a big advantage in this battle.

The Xuzhou thieves led by Cheng Jikong were very poorly armed and equipped, but after the First World War, Qiu Lei's weapons left on the battlefield were more than enough to arm Cheng Jikong's troops.

It can only be said that Qiu Lei has successfully completed the task of the captain of the transportation brigade.

Wu Zilan was also inserted into the Xiping camp by Zhang Xuan'an because of her outstanding courage and became a sentry officer in the Xiping camp. Xiping Camp has lost too much in Xiayi, although Xiao County has replenished manpower, but there are not many qualified officers, Wu Zilanhe is not qualified Zhang Xuan does not know, but the qualifications are enough.

These things are easy to say, but being busy makes Zhang Xuan breathless at all, not to mention, within three days, Zhang Xuan has to go to Xuzhou City, and things are even more hurried. It was also Zhang Su who recruited a few Xiao County scholars and shared a lot of tasks for him, otherwise Zhang Xuan would be worried that he would die of overwork.

Zhang Xuanyi

Hurriedly to the full moon and starry sky, I was about to blow the lamp and rest. But I heard He Hutou say: "Brother-in-law, General Cheng has been waiting outside for a long time. ”

Zhang Xuan immediately washed his face with cold water and asked He Hutou to invite Cheng Jikong in.

The people around Zhang Xuan were also sent out, Qin Meng was rectifying the cavalry, Wu Zilan, the new sentinel, and Zhou Fuchen was far away in Shouzhou, so He Hutou and Zheng Lian became the last two people around him, and Zheng Lian was also sent to help Zhang Su.

The only person around him was He Hutou.

After a while, He Hutou invited Cheng Jikong in.

As soon as Cheng Jikong came in, the two exchanged two words. got to the point, Cheng Ji Kongbai fell to the ground and said: "The lower officer is willing to be a battalion officer under the command of the general." ”

"Okay." Zhang Xuanda said: "Please rest assured General Cheng, I will never be able to treat General Cheng." ”

This is something that Zhang Xuan has been planning for a long time.

Cheng Jikong's department was incorporated into Zhang Xuan's system. Zhang Xuan couldn't do such a thing rashly, he sent Zhang Su to blow the wind to Cheng Jikong many times.

If you don't follow Kong, you are not a fool, why should people be controlled for no reason. Naturally, it's over with a haha.

It's just that today's battle of Fangcun gave Cheng Jikong great stimulation. It is a profound meaning that the thousands of men under his command are nothing more than that. That's why we have today.

Zhang Xuan immediately sent someone to invite Cao Zongyu over, and prepared to use Cheng Jikong's department to organize it into two battalions, one was the Xiaoxian battalion and the other was the Mangdang battalion. Coupled with Cao Zongyu's Nanyang battalion, it was organized into the Xuzhou Army. Cao Zongyu was the commander of the Xuzhou Army, and Cheng Jikong was the deputy. The Linying Battalion, Baoding Battalion, and Xiping Battalion under Zhang Xuan's jurisdiction are also known as the Runing Army. The Runing Army commanded, and Zhang Xuan led it himself.

Of course, this is just a plan, and it will take a while to really divide it well.

After sending Cheng Jikong and Cao Zongyu away, Zhang Xuan lost sleep again.

Cheng Jikong has been determined to be the deputy general of the Xuzhou Army and the commander of the Mangdang battalion, and Cheng Jikong intends to let out the battalion officer of the Xiaoxian battalion. Zhang Xuan had his toes to think, Cheng Jikong would definitely transfer all the elites under his command to the Mangdang camp, and the Xiaoxian camp was probably old and weak.

However, no matter how old and weak he is, he is still a battalion officer.

Zhang Xuan pulled out his fingers, and couldn't think of who to let be the battalion officer for a while. The right candidates in Zhang Xuan's hands are Qin Meng and Zhang Yuanhai. Compared with the two, Zhang Yuanhai is still a little immature. However, Qin Meng still has a mess in his hands.

"Forget it." Zhang Xuan secretly said in his heart: "When the matter of Xuzhou is over, let's think about this matter carefully." Anyway, the matter in Xuzhou will have a result in a few days. ”

Three days later, whether Xuzhou will survive or die, and whether Jin Shenghuan will live or die, will be known.
