When the bandits suddenly arose, the Ming court mobilized troops to encircle and suppress them. After Yang Sichang failed to make a plan to set up a net on all sides, the bandits broke into Henan and ravaged the Central Plains. At that time, Yang Wenyue, as the governor of Baoding, was defeated in Kaifeng, and the three-sided governor Wang Qiaonian died in battle.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen ordered Hou Xun to replace him and supervise the seven towns of Baoding. Yang Wenyue, the governor of Baoding, was no longer worthy of his reputation, so he had to take a few soldiers and horses to linger in Huguang and submit to Ding Qirui.

Hou Xun was the commander of the seven towns in Baoding, not because Hou Xun had outstanding military affairs, but because of Zuo Liangyu. At that time, the commander of the suppression of the bandits, Ding Qirui, was the backbone. However, everyone knows how Zuo Liangyu is. Hou Xun and Zuo Liangyu were kind to him, but in order to win over and restrain Zuo Liangyu, he ordered Hou Xun to supervise the army.

War is a major event of a country, a place of life and death, and a way of survival. However, with the so-called kindness among the ministers, it can be slightly restrained, which shows that the demise of the Ming court is a general trend.

Hou Xun, a civil servant, wanted to talk about moral articles, but he was completely defeated by Li Chuang and Zhang Xianzhong. But when it comes to war, he might not even be as good as a mountain king.

He was timid and cowardly and fearless. When Kaifeng was surrounded for more than half a year, he was on the other side of the river, holding more than 70,000 troops and horses, but he did not dare to move forward.

In comparison, Sun Chuanting was more than ten times stronger than a hundred times. Sun Chuanting was in a situation that was countless times worse than Hou Xun. At that time, the troops and horses in Guanzhong were defeated. When Sun Chuanting took office, Chongzhen did not even give him one tael of silver. Didn’t Sun Chuanting still raise tens of thousands of troops?

As soon as Chongzhen urged Sun Chuanting, no matter how bad the situation was, he had to send troops. However, the old god Hou Xun was there, and it seemed that he could not hear it by Chongzhen urging him.

Who made Hou Xun have a party backer?

Donglin Party, Fushe, hey, are all behemoths.

Hou Xun held the troops in the seven towns, and across the Yellow River, he watched the millions of households in the besieged Kaifeng city on the verge of death. He also watched Ying Yi defeat the thieves and occupy Henan. It seemed that all these changes had nothing to do with him, he was an outsider.

The soldiers and horses in the seven towns of Baoding were all stationed on the river bank. From west to east, they were Chenqiao Town, Zhujiazhai, Tongwaxiang and Xiaosongji. The four towns were arranged in a single character and watched over each other.

The remaining two towns are stationed in Fengqiu.

Kaifeng is a prefecture that spans the Yellow River. Most of it is in the south of the Yellow River, and a small part is in Hebei. Fengqiu is a center of gravity in Kaifeng and Hebei.

After a thousand years, the Yellow River has been diverted many times. For example, Fengqiu, if it was located south of the Yellow River during the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, but now it is north of the Yellow River.

Hou Xun stationed the troops in Fengqiu in two towns, and the troops in four towns blocked the river bank, and it seemed that the result was accomplished. Even after Ying Yi occupied Henan, he ignored many major actions.

It seems that he can rest as long as it is not the freezing period.

For example, at the end of last year, when the river was frozen, he was vigilant and often mobilized troops. At that time, Ying Yi had to place Zheng Jiu's troops in Zhaopi Village as a precaution. But as soon as the Yellow River thawed, Hou Xun's troops became lazy.

Ying Yi was the vanguard, and the three thousand gold armored guards landed. The nearest copper tiled wing was not even a single reaction. There was no secret whistle, which showed how loose his army was.

Ying Yi held the sword and walked vigorously, with three thousand personal guards following closely behind, and walked in silence. The old man had a weak foot, but Wang Yisheng was carrying him in front of him.

Not long after, the copper tile chassis was in sight.

The terrain on the north bank of the Yellow River is not as gentle as the south bank. This is true for both copper tiled wings and Chenqiao Town.

In the dark night, under the moonlight gauze, the copper tile box looks like a sleeping beast, and a few lights can be seen vaguely.

Wang Yisheng put down the old man, who pointed to the bronze tiles and said, "Sir, that's the bronze tiles. The bronze tiles are a town hall, and the earthen walls are only high. There were thousands of people earlier, and because of the bandits stationed, many villagers fled."

"Yeah." Ying Yi nodded slightly.

Ying Yi knew these news. Since Ying Yi decided to fight against the Northern Expedition to destroy the Ming Dynasty, all the news about the north was quickly collected and sent to Kaifeng. The first was the information related to Hou Xun's troops. After Chen Qiao and other four towns entered, the local people suffered. The so-called war was like a comb, which was used to describe the Ming army at this time.

Zuo Liangyu was one of the best at the beginning, but the other Ming troops were probably not much better.

The people often cannot get better if there are places where the Ming army is stationed. Almost all the people in this area have run away. Most of them have gone to Henan and become Ying Yi's people.

"If there are no people, it will be a military town." Wang Yisheng bowed and said, "It's just right to let go of his hands and feet, and he won't be afraid of disturbing the people."

Ying Yi laughed: "Not bad."

Then he said, "Come two people and send your father-in-law back so that he will not be affected by the war."

The old man did not refuse and left immediately.

Ying Yi raised his sword and said, "Kill in."

The dull footsteps broke the night, but it was not until Ying Yi cut the earth wall with a knife and made a shocking thunder sound that the Ming army in the copper tile wings came to his senses.

Some untidy soldiers ran out of the house, and they were greeted by a brilliant sword light.

Every time Ying Yi slashed, he was furious like thunder, and the air waves surging, stretching thousands of meters, almost slashing the small copper tile box through with one knife!

After only three slashes, Ying Yi stopped.

He grabbed a confused Ming army soldier and shouted, "Where is the main tent?"

The soldier pointed in a daze, and Ying Yi left him and walked towards the direction he pointed. Behind him, the three thousand golden armored guards had dispersed, and dozens of people flocked into the copper tile chassis.

The shouts of killing suddenly broke out, and tens of thousands of Ming troops in the entire copper tile chassis were in chaos.

Ying Yi strode in the middle of the dirt road, and Wang Yisheng followed closely.

Ying Yi said: "A crowd like this is not much stronger than a bandit. Thinking about how powerful Hongwu swept the world and expelled the Tartars? It's a pity that he finally couldn't withstand time and fell to this point."

Wang Yisheng was speechless.

Ahead, a big mansion opened, some people rushed out in panic, some people got on their horses, and some people ran wildly, like a dog that was stranded, and they were in a panic.

Ying Yi's eyes froze: "Kill."

Wang Yisheng clasped his fists slightly, jumped up and rushed to the front. A dozen guards behind him shouted in unison and ran away.

Then he screamed and screamed. After a moment, when Ying Yi approached, the dust was settled.

Wang Yisheng stood up with his sword and said, "It's a general of the Ming army."

Ying Yi smiled and said, "As expected."

For Ying Yi, the soldiers of the Ming army may have the possibility of transformation, but if the generals of the Ming army can find a good one among the 100, it is a blessing to be lucky. There is no need to capture it.

Kill the cleanest.

This battle was extremely simple. There was no use of cannons or guns. It took only more than an hour to settle the dust.

More than 10,000 Ming troops were killed, and more than 8,000 people were captured by chance. Fewer than 2,000 people escaped during the night. A few others escaped.

It can be considered as a catch-up in one go. After all, Ying Yi has few people and cannot be lost.
