My Daming New Empire

You should also be careful not to be discovered by Zong Zhensheng. Don't light a fire these few days. The protection range of the scouts should be farther away. Don't let them discover you first. "

The 300 people are not conspicuous at all among these mountains, let alone being divided into three groups now.Just find a col, and you can hide completely, and then send a few scouts to pull back the line of defense, just waiting for the opponent to throw himself into the net.

I also know that looking at the food, medicinal materials, gold and silver that are tightly stored in this cave, this place is bigger than any other stronghold they found.

He became more and more sure that Zong Zhensheng would not give up this stronghold easily after being forced into the current situation.

Thank you for seeing people in the lights, Qi Fengyun, Da Sui Zhang Degong, it is so difficult to come up with a name 111, I spit you for the reward, thank you for your support

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The seriously ill Shengguo made Zong Zhensheng's heart become irritable. In the evening, they finally went from Yuyue Mountain to the outside of this valley called Shixian Mountain.

The surrounding environment is still so calm, the red sunset casts bright colors on the sea in the distance and the forest nearby.

However, there is no longer the smoke from cooking in the past, and most of the fishermen who were not many have been arrested by the Ming army, and this place has become a no-man's land.

Yoshitoshi Shibukawa made a gesture, and most of the people sat down quietly. The trek of nearly thirty miles made everyone exhausted.

This is not a transfer on a flat road. They have to pass through the mountains and forests, and they have to pay attention not to leave traces. Everyone is exhausted.

Sheng Guo was still sleeping drowsily at the moment, with an unhealthy red color on his face.

"Sovereign, which two people do you think should be sent to investigate the situation first?"

Zong Zhensheng looked around at the loyal warriors and shook his head helplessly.In order to keep it secret, not many people knew about this base.Even if the materials stored are replaced every year, they are also the most trustworthy old people in the family.

Most of those people stayed in Ozaki Pu, and were killed in the counterattack of Japanese pirates.

Now these are the family's backup forces, and they basically don't know the existence of this base.

He had already forgotten that Man Zhen, who escaped today, actually came to this base once.

Only he himself knew the location, and the child was seriously ill, so he could only say: "Send scouts to check the surrounding situation, if there is nothing abnormal, let's go straight into the valley."

Only then did Shibukawa Yoshitoshi realize that no one except him knew about this base, so he had to order everyone to protect the lord.

Although he was a sheriff sent by the shogunate, he was actually a peripheral member of the Zong family.Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for the Zong family to let an outsider act as the sheriff and control the few warriors on the island.

As a senior official, his fate is closely related to the Zong family, and there is no chance of surrender at all.Otherwise, he would never have lived such a precarious life while hiding everywhere at the age of nearly half a hundred.

Although three teams of scouts were sent out in a row, their physical strength had already been exhausted after traveling for dozens of miles in the mountains, and the scope of their investigation was not large.

And the members of the Daming army brigade, who were waiting for a rabbit, had a false alarm, watched them wandering around halfway up the mountain to investigate, and then went down to report.

In order to wipe out all the enemies in one fell swoop, although these people entered the encirclement, Cheng Xu did not order an attack. He was waiting for these enemies to enter the encirclement deeper.

The moment they arrive at the cave will be the moment when the general attack will be launched.

At this time, Cheng Xu was very excited. Although Zong Zhensheng was very different from the picture now, but seeing him with a child, he knew that he had really caught a big fish this time.

In order to catch Zong Zhensheng, the information about him has been conveyed to all the pursuers in detail.The last heir of the Zong family, including his seven-year-old child, has long been remembered by everyone.

As all the people entered the valley, Cheng Xu waved his hand, and the horse mark of the scout battalion quickly came to his side. "Take the total..."

"Put down the tree on the left and attack according to the first plan."

Because the personnel were divided into three groups and the personnel were dispersed, the battle plan was determined at the beginning.The first plan is to divide one hundred musketeers into two groups of attacking and destroying, 50 people attack, and the other 50 people disperse to block the entire valley.

The rest of the staff attack at the same time, and bringing down the big tree on the left is the signal to attack.

This battle plan is actually very rough and not comprehensive at all.However, after long-term pursuit and escape, both sides are actually a little numb.

What's more, because of Sheng Guo's illness, only Zong Zhensheng knew about the cave, so they didn't send anyone to investigate the situation first.

So, when a big tree on the top of the mountain was brought down, the Habayashi guards outside surrounded Zong Zhensheng and the others from two directions.

...the crude plan turned into a perfect ambush.

On one side there were only 83 tired men, including a child, while on the other side there were [-] strong soldiers and [-] muskets.

The battle turned into a massacre, no forgiveness, no mercy, just a deafening gunshot, and the red-stained long knife.

Panting and leaning on the broken Xiuchun knife, Yang Zhangde still held Zong Zhensheng's head in his hand, and couldn't help laughing.

This time, he had worked so hard on this isolated island for more than a month, and it was totally worth it.

The others were also very excited, but the death of two colleagues made the soldiers who were close to them a little sad, but it didn't affect the interest of most of them.

"Chop off all the heads and go back to receive merit."

Cheng Xu said in a low voice: "Yang Qianhu, although there are not many supplies here, they are worth thousands of taels of silver..."

Yang Zhangde shook his head and said with a smile, "Who does Cheng Ba always want to sell to?"

In one sentence, Cheng Xu had nothing to say.This is an isolated island far away from Daming. Even if these supplies were given to them, they couldn't find a buyer.

Yang Zhangde patted him on the shoulder and said: "Look at the long-term... A head is 15 taels of silver, and there are several leaders, each of which is 25 taels. These are more than 1000 taels of silver, which is not considered military merit. And Thirty percent of it was intercepted by us, which is a few hundred taels of silver, so why bother to lose the big because of the few hundred taels!"

His purpose is to get promoted and make a fortune, and he doesn't care about this small amount of money at all.If it wasn't against the rules, he would have said directly that the reward silver should not be distributed to the rest of them.

People in this era do not receive much education, because they are ignorant and fearless.

They took out knives one by one, and took off everyone's heads like slaughtering pigs and sheep, and dipped them in lime to absorb water, so that the heads would not rot easily.

Others began to carry the food and medicinal materials in the cave, as well as some gold and silver.After handing in these things, they can still get [-]% and also have military merits.

If they were fighting near Daming, they could still find a next home to receive the seized goods.But now, these things can only be honestly transported back to the temporary headquarters.

Yang Zhangde kept holding Zong Zhensheng's head, reluctant to let it go.

He is deeply valued by his grandson, and he doesn't need to slowly appreciate like others. The only thing that restricts his room for advancement is his actual military achievements.

As long as he has military merits, his promotion is a matter of course.

With Zong Zhensheng's head now, there is no obstacle to his promotion, but he doesn't know what position he can be promoted this time when he goes back!

The governor should be able to guarantee it, but I don't know if he can be directly promoted to the commander. If so, he won't have to bow his head in front of Zhuang Jing and Pang Ying in the future.

And in Yingtian Mansion thousands of miles away, good news came out frequently in the palace.

After Hu Liangdi became pregnant, the concubine Sun Xian, as well as several Liangyuans, Cheng Hui, also spread the good news.

Crown Princess Zhang has been happily closing her mouth from ear to ear recently. The first thing she does when she wakes up every day is to ask Concubine Zhu Zhanji's menstrual records. If there is any delay, she immediately calls the imperial physician to check.

Because the concubine was pregnant, Mrs. Zhang arrested all the affairs of the Xingqing Palace, and Xue Shanggong assisted her in managing the Xingqing Palace.

Although Sun Xian was reluctant to part with the power in her hands, she paid more attention to the continuation of the heir. Only after giving birth to an heir can her position as the grandson concubine be stable.
