Dark Palm Jiaozhi Chapter 71: Continuous Battles and Successful Victories

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Zhou Shixiong didn't want to rush into follow-up operations. Heping Mansion needed time to grasp it, and the 40,000 captives of the Ruan Phuc family also needed to be resettled. He couldn't handle so many things alone.  Zhou Er and other generals were good at leading troops in battles, but governing local areas was not their strong point.  In order to solve this problem, Zhou Shixiong wrote a letter to Guan Chongguang and asked him to deploy a group of people from Pingxiangzhou Yamen to help.

    ??????????????????? However, water from afar cannot quench the thirst of the nearer, and now we need to find someone to temporarily take care of Heping Mansion.  Zhou Shixiong thought carefully and found out that it was unrealistic to let Zheng Yiguan take charge. Even if Zheng Yiguan could not bear to have bad thoughts, those in Heping Mansion would find ways to encourage Zheng Yiguan.  Guangnan Prefecture's acting chief district Boda can barely be considered a candidate, but his problem is also obvious. Once the surveillance is relaxed, this guy will escape from Vietnam and North Korea at any time. This possibility is almost certain.

    "Master Zheng, it seems that I can only ask you to take charge of Heping Mansion temporarily. Hongchang is really worried about leaving it to others." Fan Ganji was waiting for the latest intelligence report, while Zhou Shixiong and Zheng Dong went to the military camp to inspect the army.  In order to prevent the prisoners from causing trouble, Zhou Shixiong mixed the prisoners from Heping Mansion and Nguyen Phuc Clan, and repaired the city under the guard of the coalition forces of the three houses.  Eating for nothing and not working is not enough.

    "Master Ji is ridiculous." Zheng Dong also considered this issue, but Zheng Dong didn't want to stay in Heping Mansion.  Fan Gandhi's jealousy towards Ji Hongchang was seen by Zheng Dong, and he was afraid that if he did not follow, Fan Gandhi would be detrimental to Ji Hongchang.  "Zheng thinks that this matter is not difficult to deal with. Master Ji only needs to leave two thousand naval troops to garrison Haupinh Palace, send troops to go out with the army, and send people to Lang Son Palace when they arrive at Tuyen Quang Palace."

    "Good idea." The navy can only serve as a guard for Zhou Shixiong now. There is nothing to do. It will definitely be no problem to stay as an urban management officer.  Zhou Shixiong followed Zheng Dong's idea and thought of a way to use Heping Prefecture soldiers to guard Ruan Phuc's prisoners of war. For their own safety, Heping Prefecture soldiers would definitely do this job well.  As for Zheng Yiguan, Ou Boda, Nguyen Phuong Zheng, Ruan Phuong Hui and others, of course they must be taken with them to prevent them from coming into contact with their subordinates to play tricks.

    A few days later, the latest detective report was finally sent to the three palace masters, confirming that the 20,000 elites of Shenglong Palace were still stationed in Hedong City.  During the investigation, Li Xiaobin also arrested several spies from Shenglong Mansion and learned from them that Zheng Zai returned to Shenglong Mansion, and the person who stayed in Hedong City to command the troops was Hu Hao, Zheng Zai's brother-in-law.

    "I know a thing or two about Hu Hao. He is a tiger general who is brave and not afraid of death. It's just that this man loves the food in his cup and has repeatedly caused troubles due to drinking. This can be used to advantage." Zheng Dong heard that it was Hu Hao.  Hao was leading the troops in Hedong City, and his face looked much better now.

    "Oh, I wonder if Master Zheng has any good ideas?" Fan Gandi thought for a while but couldn't figure out how to take advantage of Hu Hao's shortcomings, so he could only ask for advice.

    "Send someone to Hedong City to reward the army with more wine." Zheng Dong's strategy was very simple. He personally went out and led a large convoy of 2,000 vehicles and 10,000 civilians to Hedong in the name of the Lord of Henan Prefecture.  The city rewarded the army.  Hu Hao personally went out of the city to greet him. That night, a grand dinner was held in the city to warmly entertain the head of the Henan Palace who had so much money to burn his hands.  On the second day, Hedong City fell.

    Looking at Hu Hao who was tied up like a meat dumpling, Zhou Shixiong almost stopped laughing.  This guy was made into a specimen of Japanese rope art and fell asleep while blowing bubbles.  "Wake him up." Both Fan Gandhi and Zhou Shixiong found it incredible that they had easily captured Hedong City.  The 20,000 elites were too weak, and they never organized a decent attack from beginning to end.

    "Wow, who the hell is throwing a tantrum at me!" Hu Hao finally woke up after being doused with a basin of cold water.  Looking around, he saw something was wrong.  Hu Hao stared at Zhou Shixiong with his big eyes, "Who are you?"

    "Your sister!" Zhou Shixiong wanted to kick this idiot back to Mars.  Last night, Zhou Shixiong, as a general under Zheng Dong, had a good drink with Hu Hao's big wine barrel. If he hadn't been carrying a hangover gold finger, Zhou Shixiong believed that he would have died miserably.

    "Master Ji." Zheng Dong reminded Zhou Shixiong not to go too far, as Hu Hao still has great uses.

    Only then did Hu Hao see Zheng Dong behind Zhou Shixiong. He looked carefully and confirmed that the person in front of him was indeed the head of the Henan Palace and a branch clan leader of the Zheng family. "Master Zheng, what do you mean?"

    "General Hu, I am borrowing the passage from Palace Master Fan and Palace Master Ji. Please give General Hu a hard time." Zheng Dong was not interested in explaining to a fool what he was going to do. The three of them had already discussed that they would attack Ruan this time.  The Fu clan tried their best not to provoke Zheng Zai in their territory. The three of them all understood that they could barely challenge Ruan Fu clan with the few troops they had, but they couldn't afford to add another Zheng Zai.  Of course, Zheng Zai's 20,000 soldiers and horses cannot be killed at once. Zheng Dong plans to use these soldiers and horses to negotiate with Zheng Zai and force Zheng Zai not to participate in this civil war.

    "Just take the opportunity, why are you tying me up?" Hu Hao hadn't figured out what was going on, and his IQ was definitely flawed.

    "Don't worry about it, I will let you go when the time comes." Zheng Dong also found that he couldn't explain clearly to this fool, so he simply stopped talking.  LifeThe soldiers loaded Hu Hao into a cart and escorted the 20,000 prisoners of war from Sheng Long Mansion to leave Hedong City and march towards Fu Thou Mansion.

    Although Zheng Dong had prepared sufficient food and grass and captured a batch in Hedong City, as many as 80,000 prisoners of war still caused great trouble to the coalition forces.  Arriving at Dongmu City at the junction of He Xi Prefecture and Phu Tho Prefecture, Fan Gandi suggested to Ji Hongchang, "Master Ji, there are too many prisoners of war. Why not send them to Taiyuan Prefecture for custody first, and wait until the Nguyen Phuc family is dealt with?"  Dispose of them."

    These 80,000 prisoners of war must be divided among the spoils. Even though the 40,000 soldiers of the Nguyen Phuc clan surrendered to Ji Hongchang by name, Ji Hongchang should also compensate Zheng Dong and Van Gandhi.  Everyone works hard together, but you alone take all the benefits. It is best to dream about this kind of thing. In reality, there are not so many pies falling from the sky.

    "What do you think, Master Zheng?" Zhou Shixiong had already voted in favor and nodded slightly when he looked at Zheng Dongshi.

    "That's fine, but I'm afraid the news will be leaked if you do this. Please don't ignore it, Master Fan." Zheng Dong also felt that it was strange to bring more prisoners of war than soldiers to fight, so he nodded and agreed to Fan Gandhi's suggestion.

    A large army suddenly came to the border. The soldiers of Fushou Mansion were very nervous and quickly sent the news to Yuechi City, the main city of Fushou Mansion.  Deng Zun, the head of Fushou Mansion, was from the mother lineage of Mo Dengyong, the head of the Mo Dynasty.  Deng Zun's father, Deng Qingwen, couldn't bear to see Mo Dengyong usurping the throne, so he secretly befriended Zheng Song. During Zheng Song's Northern Expedition, Deng Qingwen contributed a lot. After Zheng Song defeated Mo Dengyong and took control of the Northern Dynasty, he was very hostile to the Deng family.  In order to trust him, he rewarded Deng with Fu Shou Mansion, which was second only to Shenglong Mansion in wealth.

    The rich Deng family in Fushou Mansion brings the capital of luxurious life, but also brings the prying eyes of hungry wolves.  After Deng Qingwen's death and Deng Zun's succession to the throne, the neighboring Tuyen Quang Palace and Yen Bai Palace continued to encroach on Phu Tho Palace, intending to carve up Phu Tho Palace in this way.  Therefore, Van Gandhi was very confident in using Dafu Shoufu.

    "Master Fan, it's really you!" The coalition forces stayed at the foot of Dongmu City for a whole night. Not long after dawn, a short, fat, middle-aged man came to the top of the city and recognized Fan Gandhi at a glance.

    "Master Deng, you're fine." Both sides recognized each other and the alarm was lifted.  Deng Zun ordered people to open the city to welcome the three palace masters.

    "Palace Master Fan, which song are you singing?" Deng Zun asked in confusion as he welcomed the three palace masters into Dongmu City.

    Fan Ganji did not hide anything from Deng Zun and told what happened during this period. Deng Zun was stunned and asked, "Palace Master Fan, was Zheng Zhuang really beaten away by you?"

    "Not only Zheng Zhuang, Ruan Phuc Luo Min was defeated and turned into ashes." Everyone has vanity. Deng Zun's surprised expression greatly satisfied Van Gandhi's vanity. Therefore, Palace Master Fan forced Zheng to surrender with his fingers.  As usual, after the great achievements such as the siege of Nguyen Phuoc were shown, Deng Zun's eyes could not open any wider.  Hearing that the Allied Forces of the Three Prefectures were going to use the road to attack the Nguyen Phuc clan, Deng Zun allowed it unconditionally, not worrying at all that the Allied Forces of the Three Prefectures would conveniently occupy Phu Tho House.

    Three days later, Fan Gandi led his troops to escort the prisoners of war to Taiyuan Prefecture, while Ji Hongchang and Zheng Dong led their men to march towards Xuanguang Prefecture.  The two sides agreed to meet up in Kang Luk City in Xuyen Quang Prefecture and attack Xuanguang City, the main city of Xuyuan Guang Prefecture.

    Zhou Shixiong would like to thank the reality of poor transportation and inconvenient communication in ancient times. Without this, it would be unthinkable to conquer Xuanguang Mansion.  When the coalition forces appeared under Xuanguang City, the defenders of Xuanguang City did not know what had happened.  However, after a round of shelling, the defenders of Xuanguang City collapsed completely, and the coalition forces once again captured Xuanguang City without bloodshed.

    After occupying Tuyuan Quang City, Van Gandhi was not polite to the losers. He commanded 20,000 Taiyuan soldiers to thoroughly cleanse Tuyuan Quang City. Nearly 80,000 Nguyen Phuc clan members in the city were wiped out overnight, giving Van Gandhi a small taste.  The pleasure of killing an enemy with one blow.

    Zhou Shixiong and Zheng Dong did not want to get involved, so they simply led their troops and camped outside Xuanguang City.  Listening to the various noises coming from the city, Zhou Shixiong looked at Zheng Dong and said, "Palace Master Zheng, Palace Master Fan may have gone too far."

    "Master Ji, Lord Fan is eager for revenge. You and I can't persuade him. Anyway, Xuanguang Mansion is his trophy. He can do whatever he wants." Zheng Dong was too insidious. Seeing Fan Gandi, he took Xuanguang Mansion.  The disaster was serious, so they immediately decided on the ownership of Xuanguang Mansion, without asking Fan Gan if he agreed.

    "Master Zheng, although Anbai Mansion and Ajiang Mansion are adjacent to each other, there is no road between the two houses. What should we do next?" Both of them had just learned about this situation. The original plan was to capture Xuanguang Mansion and attack Anbo first.  Pei Mansion, leaving Ajiang Mansion for last resort, now seems unfeasible.

    "What's the difficulty? Just divide your troops and attack." Zheng Dong forgot that most of the more than 10,000 people he led were civilians, and only one thousand-man team was a regular soldier.  Wanting to use 10,000 civilians to conquer the city, Zheng Dong's pride exploded infinitely.

    Zheng Dong¡¯s decision made Zhou Shixiong couldn¡¯t help complaining, ¡°Master Zheng, you and I only have 6,000 troops, can we each bring 3,000 to fight?¡±

    PS: That¡¯s what it says.
