March 19.

A team of more than 1,000 people marched on the muddy and dilapidated official road, braving the drizzle, and marched towards Bazhou, Boryeong Province.

In the sequence, several carriages, an official sedan chair, and more than a dozen servants are hidden in the middle of the procession, which is the new Sichuan envoy Zhang Shoudai and his family and entourage servants.

In the past 10 days, the political situation in Hanzhong and the entire political situation in Shaanxi have undergone tremendous changes. Shortly after the governor was renewed, there was also a change in the political envoy, and Beijing was dismissed for the incompetence of Mao Zhenshou's imperial army, which directly vacated the throne of the political envoy of Shaanxi, which attracted countless people to salivate. The officialdom shock has just occurred, and Yang Guangshu, the prefect of Hanzhong, has also been dismissed from his post, not only that, but he has also been directly imprisoned, and in the recent fighting campaign, Zhang Shoudai, who has repeatedly established the Shaanxi branch patrol because of his full support for Liu Xianam, unexpectedly got the post of Sichuan envoy.

This should have been a happy thing for him, and Zhang Shoudai could finally be called a member of the party. Officially entered the high-level sequence of Manchu officialdom. But anyone with a discerning eye knows that Zhang Shoudai is 'giving way'!

Mao Zhenshou was dismissed, and the person most qualified to take over the post of political envoy in Shaanxi was undoubtedly Zhang Shoudai, who had served as a Taoist in Shaanxi for many years and had made military achievements. What's not to make way for people?

Liu Xian didn't know anything about the detours here, he still knew too little about the officialdom, and he could only see the Hanzhong in front of him, and what political envoys and envoys were still too far away from him. If it weren't for Li Ying, he would have explained a thing or two from it.

Li Ying also gained some benefits in this political change, his hat of the Hanzhong Mansion was officially worn, and the station was a solid city, which had a lot of meaning.

As for Liu Xian himself, of course he will not wear the hat of the garrison anymore, and now he is the rank of Du Si plus the rank of general, which is the actual position of the Du Si, and he is treated as a first-class staff general.

However, people don't understand at all that the war in Hanzhong is obviously entering the first place, why did his team, which has made many achievements, be transferred to Sichuan?

The first time Liu Xian received the military order paperwork, he only felt the stars in the sky above his head. I don't understand what kind of thinking is this!!

But what if you don't understand? Military orders are like mountains and must be obeyed. If Liu Xian still wants to lean on the big tree of the Manchu Dynasty. He could only be fortunate that the boss had left him a place to keep for himself, and Chenggu was still firmly in the hands of the Li Liu Alliance.

On the 15th, Liu Xian led more than 1,100 people from his headquarters to the south with Zhang Shoudai's family. Leave Qi Dalin, Zhou Jun, and Liu Zhuo to lead the rest of the troops to stay in Chenggu.

Enter Qingshi Pass, Xiayu Pass, arrive at Baoning Mansion, pass through Nanjiang County, and go to Bazhou. Then there are Langzhong, Chongqing, Tongchuan, Chengdu or something.

Fort of the Two Estuary.

The team stopped, and finally found a place where the whole army could shelter from the rain, the rain did not stop, and Liu Xian did not plan to march again. As soon as he left Nanjiang County, raindrops fell from the sky, wetting his clothes and getting cold.

Zhang Shoudai's work according to the inspector is also a little boring, people are not in a hurry to enter Chengdu, of course they are reluctant to leave on rainy days. More than 1,000 horses rested at the fort of Lianghekou.

After drinking a few glasses of wine with Zhang Shoudai and listening to him talk about some things in Sichuan, Liu Xian turned back to his room. Kimono was lying on the bed, not sleepy, and her eyes were bright and bright.

"Shi Dakai, Shi Dakai......" All he was thinking about now was Shi Dakai.

It's March 19, and in another month or two, Shi Dakai was defeated, Dadu River was captured, and then he was killed by a thousand knives in Chengdu!

Liu Xian remembers this very clearly. Shi Dakai was one of the few people he knew about the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in detail.

Although it is ridiculous, the reason why Shi Da's army was defeated at the Dadu River was because his wife wanted to give birth to him, and the army stopped for a few days, so that the army was defeated and died. But in May of the second year of Tongzhi, it was indeed the day of his defeat.

Liu Xian didn't want to see a person like Shi Dakai fall in front of him, and he didn't want to see him in Chengdu with a thousand cuts. Shi Dakai is not Chen Decai, Lai Wenguang and others, this is a person who is very admired by Liu Xian.

But when it comes to saving him, Liu Xian has never thought about it. All he can do is keep circling in his mind these days and consider Shi Dakai's actions and details in the next two months, as long as he can block Shi Dakai in the pine woodland before the date when Shi Dakai opened his troops to enter the Dadu River in history, and after a heavy rain, the water of the Dadu River will skyrocket, and Shi Dakai will naturally lead the troops south. In this way, Liu Xian can not only save Shi Dakai's life, but also get a great credit.

You must know that when Shi Dakai broke through Ningyuan, the main force of the Qing army in Sichuan was either for Lai Yuxin to contain in western Sichuan, but was dragged by Li Fuyou in eastern Sichuan, and Chengdu was empty and tight. The Qing army Tang Yougeng, who originally arrived on the edge of the Dadu River, was three days later than Shi Dakai.

The reason why Luo Bingzhang was able to catch Shi Dakai was only because of God's help, so that it rained heavily in the area of the Dadu River, which should not be in the rainy season.

The next day, the rain was still falling, and Liu Xian and Zhang Shoudai continued to squat at Lianghekou Fort. It was not until the 22nd that the team drove south from the Lianghekou Fort and arrived in Bazhou in the evening. Zhang Shoudai rested in Bazhou for a few more days, and the local government raised ships, and in mid-April, he and Liu Xianam's 1,000-strong team arrived in Chongqing along the Jialing River.

This is Liu Xian's team has grown to more than 2,000 people. In Sichuan over the years, there are still Shi Dakai's successive entry, and then there is Li Lan's uprising, the government exploits fiercely, and there are too many ordinary people who can't even eat.

Liu Xian did not conduct strict pre-war training for these newly recruited people as he did when he was in Chenggu, nor did he mix them with the veterans, but transferred sergeants and low-level officers in the army, directly organized the team, divided them into squadrons, and named them the Volunteer Battalion.

Yishui'er's cold weapons are more than one head lower than those of veterans, and they are only equivalent to recruits in the new barracks.

Obviously, Liu Xian is using them as cannon fodder!

But even so, along the way, Liu Xian also recruited a small thousand volunteers, as well as a logistics team of more than 500 people.

Yes, the logistics team. Liu Xian also distinguished them from the regular baggage team name, that is, they were used as coolies.

The size of the fleet was twice as large as it was in Bazhou. But these are not problems, Chongqing is much stronger than Bazhou. Easily raised enough boats and sailed up the river, and the team didn't see Chengdu until late April.

Liu Xian was not in a hurry at all. When the team arrived in Chengdu, he was mixed in Zhang Shoudai's entourage, looking at the smiling faces of Luo Bingzhang, the governor of Sichuan who greeted Zhang Shoudai at the gate of the city, and the smiling faces of Chengdu General Chonghou, etc., he thought maliciously in his heart, in ten days, when Shi Dakai led his troops to cross the Jinsha River from the rice grain dam in Zhaotong, Yunnan, and entered Sichuan to capture the border of Ningyuan Mansion, can all the smiling people in front of him laugh?

Whether it is Luo Bingzhang, Chonghou, or other officials, they all ignore Liu Xian. A small Dusi plus the rank of general, what is it in the provincial capital?

What, what do you want to say about Liu Xianam's merits?

Joke. Sichuan Province has fought against Shi Wei for many years, hundreds of large and small battles, which civil and military forces present have not done their best, exhausted their efforts, and worked hard?

Do you still give us credit?
