[Thank you for the 500 coin reward of 'I like fate']

"Your Highness, the Xiangdong Independent Regiment has come to report that Zhou Zhilin has captured Liling!"

On Shigu Mountain, Chen Ming was in the Li Zhongjie Ancestral Hall when the good news came, accompanied by Lin Xueyi, the head of Shigu Mountain, and several academy teachers and students, although their eyes were full of absolute vigilance and faint hatred when they looked at Chen Ming. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Chen Ming laughed when he heard this.

Hearing the good news in front of Li Zhongjie's ancestral hall, why is his heart so happy?

"Zhongjie Gong has a spirit in the sky, so he will watch the younger generations, sweep away the dust, and wash the world!" Chen Ming respectfully saluted the statue with three sticks of incense. Li Zhongjie's public name is Li Fu, the word Shuzhang, a native of Hengzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty. In the first year of Deyou in the Southern Song Dynasty, that is, the year before the Mengyuan army entered the city of Hangzhou, the Yuan army was a general, Li Fu was ordered to be in danger, and he was appointed as the governor of Tanzhou and the pacification envoy of Hunan, leading the army and the people to resist the Mengyuan army for more than three months, the city was broken, and the family was martyred. In the Yuan Dynasty, Li Fu's former residence in Jinao Mountain, south of Hengzhou Road, built Li Zhongjie Ancestral Hall, with Li Fu's ministry of Shen Zhong and Hengyang County Ling Mu Yanzu, and the Qing Dynasty moved to build Shigu Mountain.

The Fu Han army killed along the Xiangjiang River to Hengyang, and the prefect of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was too far behind Li Fu. As soon as the cannon went off, he fled.

Chen Ming felt that there was really a providence that allowed him to receive this good news at the Li Zhongjie Ancestral Hall. Lin Xueyi and other teachers and students of Shigu Academy looked at each other.

The solidity of Yuelu Mountain on the west bank of the Xiangjiang River only blocked the Han Army for two days. A few days ago, when Chen Ming boarded the Yuelu Academy, where dozens of Confucian scholars and teachers were left behind, the mighty fleet of the Fu Han Army sailed through Changsha and headed straight along the river in Hengyang. Under the city of Changsha, only Chen Yongsheng led the first brigade to stay.

The army went south, Xiangtan and Hengshan counties descended one after another, and Hengyang Fucheng succeeded in one blow!

Chen Ming, who had just wandered around Yuelu Academy, boarded the Stone Drum Academy again in a blink of an eye, and he was not so much dressed up to commemorate the sages as he came to play. The location of this stone drum academy is really too good, it is located at the confluence of the three rivers of Xiangjiang, Steaming River and Leihe River, surrounded by water on three sides, and the torrent is surging. It's not tall or big, but it's a "natural stone drum" and a "thousand-year-old academy". Not far away is the sailor of the Fu Han Army!

After straightening up, Chen Ming suddenly felt dissatisfied with the couplets on the left and right of the ancestral hall, because this Zhongjie Temple was built by the Qing Dynasty, and naturally, the couplets outside the ancestral hall were also written by the Qing people.

"Smash this couplet for me!" Chen Ming, who turned to leave, didn't even look at Lin Xueyi, the so-called Huxiang 'national scholar'.

Since the army entered Huxiang, there have not been a few scholars in Hunan who have come to join the army, whether it is Yuelu Mountain, Shigu Mountain, or the students, teachers, and mountain chiefs, they have not concealed their inner fear in the face of Chen Ming, which is a kind of resistance from the heart. However, there was a Henan man named Chen Guangqian, who came to serve Chen Ming. According to this person, he was a native of Dengzhou, moved to Guangxi for many years, and made a living selling sugar. Because of the great changes in the country's life and the injustice of the place, he also folded the capital of doing business, so he entrusted his wife and children to others, and came to join the army himself, risking his life to fight for the future.

Chen Guangqian can write and calculate, and he still seems to have a lot of ink in his stomach, but his origin is too unverifiable, although Chen Ming can't feel his malice, but it is absolutely irresponsible to put such a person by his side, so he will be transferred to the army logistics for temporary observation.

In addition to this Chen Guangqian, since Chen Ming entered Hunan, the Hunan students he has met who have joined the army are less than ten fingers on both hands. This made him very dissatisfied. Fortunately, there is always an unexpected joy, that is, that Liuyang, Liuyang County east of Changsha, when Chen Ming killed the army to Changsha, the local anti-Qing forces rose up at the right time, claiming that his ancestor was Zhou Zhilin, the general of the Ming Dynasty, led people to capture the empty Liuyang City in one fell swoop, and then sent someone to contact Chen Ming and raised troops to serve the Han army. Chen Ming gave him the title of Xiangdong Independent Regiment, supported armor, guns, and gunpowder, and told him not to go to Changsha to join the Fu Han army, but to attack Liling in the south, and then transfer to Pingxiang in Jiangxi. It is one of the few land passages connected to Hunan in Jiangxi, and it is temporarily cut off from Jiangxi and Hunan when it is stuck there.

"Baoqing, Yongzhou, Chenzhou, these are all places we can attack." Hengyang is located in the center of the entire Hunan, and can be attacked on three sides.

"You don't have to worry about the city, open the county seat, loot the treasury, and pick out a few officials who are angry with the people and kill them."

"If there are Qing troops and civilians in various places, they must be resolutely defeated, and all towns along the way, if there is stubborn resistance, they will all break the ......."

Chen Ming has been killed in the hinterland of Hunan, and now he must be a proper rogue. Break the city, kill the officials, take the money, and even the money is not important, it is to disturb the order of the place, and then turn around and leave. When Changsha is solved in the future, Chen Han can really gain a firm foothold in Xiangzhong.

If such a battle is not fought well, all the officers at or above the battalion level present here can take off their hats and go back to be small soldiers by themselves.

"Daozhou, south of Yongzhou, should focus on it." If Chen Ming's memory is not wrong, the Taiping army will get a great supplement in Daozhou after leaving Guangxi and entering Hunan. He vaguely remembered that the Tiandihui in Hunan had an uprising in Daozhou at that time, but he couldn't remember the specific details.

Zhou Zhilin's incident in Liuyang gave Chen Ming a shot in the arm, and he now has hope for Daozhou.

The Fu Han army can't take Changsha and Changde now, and even if other places are taken, it is difficult to effectively control them. Although the Qing army in order to hold Changsha and Changde, the entire Hunan was so empty that the rabble under Zhou Zhilin could defeat Liling smoothly. Chen Ming is now attacking and killing in all directions with the battalion as a unit, which is also due to the fact that Hunan is empty.

Zhang Chongbei and Wang Zhiyuan led the 7th Battalion of the 15th Brigade to Leiyang. The 15th Brigade's key strategic direction was placed in Yongzhou and Chenzhou, and only one battalion was placed in Guiyang Prefecture in the middle. The Guards Brigade threw part of its forces into Baoqing Mansion, and another part of its troops stayed in Hengyang, and then squeezed out a battalion to cooperate with the 15th Brigade to attack Yongzhou.

Zhang Chongbei and Wang Zhiyuan hurried all the way to Leiyang, and then south from Leiyang is Chenzhou, which is the most famous mining area in Hunan.

This thing has a fast hand, but a slow hand, and took the military order, and that night they went south with the team by boat.

In the 21st century, Leishui is a tributary of the Xiangjiang River, and in ancient times, it was the main water traffic route from the Central Plains in the north to Lingnan, and it was opened to boats as early as the Zhou Dynasty. Nowadays, there are more than 20 commercial ports and wharves along Leishui, among which Huangni River, Dahetan, Zaotou City, Xinshi and other places are known as the four major ports of Leiyang. There are also Taozhou, Shangbao Street, Qingshuipu, Weijiangkou, Simenzhou, Baishan, Dapi City and other commercial ports because of the proximity to waterways.

"No matter what, let's go directly to Leiyang, knock out Zaotou City at most, and then attack Chenzhou as quickly as possible."

Zhang Chongbei and Wang Zhiyuan knew that each dot meant wealth and seizure, and Zaotou City was the closest market wharf to Leiyang County. But if they linger among the money, grain, and goods on both sides of the Leishui River, can they still take the lead in Chenzhou?

"Nothing else. Let's go to Leiyang first, open Leiyang, and after collecting the boats, we will directly kill Chenzhou. ”

When is there no money? It's the credit that counts. If they can wrap up thousands of miners to vote, the rewarded military merit points alone can give them an extra 120 acres of land up and down the seventh battalion. And the benefits for team officers and battalion officers are even more.

"Kill......"

On the night march, the torches lit on the transport ships reflected the fleet like a fire dragon. One hundred and ten miles of waterway, at nine o'clock and ten o'clock the next day, the seventh battalion rushed to the outside of Leiyang City.

Zhang Zhiyuan led people to grab the dock and immediately rushed to the city gate, but he rushed to Leiyang County.

The gate of the county government was open, and there was not a single official in official uniform, only an old man with gray hair guarding the gate.

"Big brother, the county magistrate here has already ......led people to run away," Zhang Zhiyuan sat at the foot of the steps in the lobby and said to Zhang Chongbei, who was in a hurry.

"What about the county treasury?"

"Bright. Even the tables and stools of the county government were robbed by the people......"

The county magistrate ran away yesterday morning, and in the afternoon there was no one in the entire county office. However, the people of the county still did not dare to rob the county government, until the evening, when a group of masked people with carts and horses carried the remaining copper coins and grain in the county treasury, they were seen by the people in the city, and then robbed the county government in a swarm.

Zhang Chongbei looked at the lobby, the three-foot law table was still on the wooden platform in the warm pavilion, and the people probably didn't dare to grab this, but the four treasures of the study room and the Ling quiver placed on the table were all gone, even the Taishi chair was gone, and the Ling arrow frame and the shocking wood were gone. Not even a single water and fire stick arranged on the left and right of the hall can be seen.

"How much money is there in the county treasury? You take someone to copy the stove city. I led people to copy those officials and profiteers who ate fat and were full of stomachs. ”

Zhang Chongbei looked at Guangguang's lobby and smiled disapprerovingly, waved his hand and called the guards, "You go to the street and shout, our army is looking for someone to ask for directions." "The good people don't dare to come, don't those ruffians dare not come? This is a great opportunity for them to make a fortune. Of course, every time before raiding the house, Zhang Chongbei will let the ruffians and hooligans loudly 'declare' the crimes of these big gentry and businessmen, if they encounter 'false and untrue' words, such as fat sheep shouting injustice, and can still produce human and material evidence, Zhang Chongbei will naturally raise his noble hand from the good. But such people are certainly in the minority.

Many so-called benevolent people, the so-called benevolent and righteous families, are their own mouths to say, the so-called good gentry and righteous business, good and righteous are more 'good and righteous' for the government to see, and they may not even be thoughtful about small favors for the people.

Chen Ming's views on the good gentry and righteous businessmen of this era can be classified into four words: people's congress deputies. It can't be denied that there is no good person in the nest of black, but if you want to say that there are all good people in it, it will make people hehe.

Under the saber of the Fu Han Dynasty, there are still people who come out to testify for them, this family is really a good person in eighteen or nineteen, such a good gentleman and righteous businessman, Zhang Chongbei himself does not want to harm this kind of person, and his conscience is not dark?

Most of the secret camps of the Fu Han army in Hunan were active on the shores of Dongting Lake, or in the capital cities of various prefectures, and they had not yet had time to enter the local counties and towns in southern Hunan. Otherwise, with the dark camp leading the team, it will really be 'the French Open will be restored but not leaked'!

Just when the Fu Han army was attacking the city in the central and southern part of Hunan like a rogue and stirring up the world, in front of the Zhongjie Temple of Shigu Academy, several officers and soldiers of the Fu Han Dynasty were very solemnly changing a pair of couplets for the Zhongjie Temple:

The blue blood stains the yellow sand, and the righteousness becomes benevolence, and it should be immortal;

Elite Huiheshi, greedy for life and afraid of death, don't come here.

This is not mentioned by Chen Ming, he can't mention such a couplet, this is what he wants to mention from the people in the ranks of the Han army. In a few days, twenty or thirty couplets that he thought were of a good standard were sent to Chen Ming, and he fell in love with this one.

This couplet is from Chen Guangqian's handwriting. (To be continued.) )
