Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Sweeping Army
Chen Yan nodded slightly, but he didn't pay attention to Li Wu anymore, but looked at the others.
"It's not me making a big fuss, we as commanders must understand our own shortcomings."
"Well, from today onwards, we will hold a correction meeting after every battle, so let's make this a regular practice."
Seeing that everyone was silent, Chen Yan slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and said in a slow tone.
"Let's change the topic and discuss the development plan for the next period of time."
All:???
Development plan?!
What is that, can you eat it? How much is a pound.
Chen Yan: "......"
Chen Yan's whole face darkened, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching.
"We can't wait for the imperial army to attack in Erfeng Mountain, we have to take the initiative to attack and develop our strength, otherwise, we will all be trapped and die in Erfeng Mountain sooner or later."
Chen Yan took a deep breath and said.
"Uncle, where are we going to attack first? Anping County? ”
Ma Liu asked with some curiosity.
Chen Yan shook his head slowly.
"No, we will fight Anping County, but not Anping City."
"We can sweep the towns, markets, and villages outside Anping to get the population and means of production we need for development."
"Don't you fight Anping City?"
Zhao Qian asked.
"Don't fight."
Chen Yan was very solution, and then explained.
"If we take Anping City, then the news of the fall of Anping will be reported layer by layer, and if the matter is too big, it may cause the imperial court to send a large army to destroy us."
"And if we leave Anping City unfought, then the entire Anping and even the rural areas of the surrounding counties will be able to let us run rampant and obtain the population and resources needed for development."
"I believe that in this case, the county magistrate should help us prevent the news from being reported to the imperial court for the sake of his official hat, and we can get the most precious development time."
Before he had enough strength, Chen Yan would not touch those cities, and the vast rural areas were his scope of activity.
Everyone showed a thoughtful expression, Chen Yan covered his face, and now he finally understood the importance of talents.
"Uncle Zhao, you can disperse the people under your command and collect the news of Anping."
Chen Yan said to Zhao Qian.
Zhao Qian nodded, got up and walked out of the council hall to order his subordinates to go down.
"Uncle Wen, Ma Liu, you sort out how much money, food, and materials we have at the moment, and then report a specific number to me."
"Yes."
"Obey my uncle."
Wen Haisheng and Ma Liu also agreed.
Chen Yan's eyes looked at the remaining people and spoke.
"Let's go back and rest for the rest of the rest of the people, and gather the brothers of the entire Erfeng Mountain tomorrow morning, and we will fight Erfeng Mountain and capture Anping County."
……
Chen Yan and Liu Yueying returned to their room, but Chen Yan did not rest, but sat at the table and brooded.
The current Erfeng Mountain is a group of bandits in the final analysis, and if they want to play Erfeng Mountain, they always lack a righteous name!
Hundreds of years from now.
For example, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, raised an army to resist the Yuan, and the banner he played was to drive out Hu Lu and restore China; Establish a program of Chen Ji and relieve the people.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng shouted the slogan "Juntian is exempt".
The Taiping Rebellion was under the banner of "one family in the world, sharing peace, everywhere is uneven, and no one is unfed".
The banner of the Xinhai Revolution, Sun/Yat-sen, is similar to that of Ming Taizu, "drive out the Tartars, restore China, establish the Republic of China, and equalize land rights." ”
Hundreds of years ago, whether it was the Yellow Turban Army Uprising at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty or the Huangchao Uprising at the end of the Tang Dynasty, these well-known uprisings in history all played their own banners.
And what Chen Yan is thinking about now is the slogan that belongs to them!
But it was such a slogan, but Chen Yan felt extremely embarrassed, and the slogan of raising troops was related to the path that the rebel army would take in the future.
After thinking hard for a long time, Chen Yan picked up the pen and left a line of large characters on the paper.
"Inherit the heavens, relieve the people, hoe the rape and destroy the captives, and China will prosper again!"
That's right, it's all empty words, it just sounds good.
Chen Yan showed a wry smile on his face, he wanted to shout the slogan of "fighting local tyrants and dividing the land", but he didn't dare!
That's right, I just don't dare!
Li Zicheng did this, he really exempted Juntian from taxation, did not collect taxes from the people, but fought the idea of local tyrants and inferior gentry.
Then he was defeated and died!
Was it really the hundreds of thousands of Eight Banners soldiers who defeated King Li Chuang?
Obviously not, it was those Han landlords and gentry who really sent King Li Chuang to the grave.
After the Battle of a Stone, although King Li Chuang experienced Waterloo, the main force of the army still existed, and he still maintained considerable combat effectiveness.
However, when King Li Chuang withdrew his troops back to Guanzhong, he was blocked by the regimental training organized by the landlord and gentry.
A fire broke out in the backyard, and hundreds of thousands of troops lost their provisions, and the more they fought, the fewer they fought, and then they were caught between the Qing army and the landlords and gentry.
Let him die in the hands of ordinary country group training after defeating the elite under his hands!
I have to say that it is a pity that King Li Chuang, who swept through the Central Plains, died at the hands of those fat sheep in his eyes.
If King Li Chuang compromises a little with those landlords and gentry, with the support of those landlords and gentry, perhaps it is unknown who will die in the world!
The same experience was also experienced by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, which also achieved the equalization of land in an attempt to completely eliminate the landlord class.
However, they swept through the southeast, broke through the city of Nanjing, and were about to overthrow the Qing Dynasty, but the scene that happened to King Li Chuang was repeated again.
The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was destroyed, and it was destroyed by the Hunan army organized by Zeng Guopan!
Who is Zeng Guopan?
Han landlord gentry.
How was the Hunan Army formed?
The Han landlords and gentry in the south of the Yangtze River spontaneously sent money and trained people.
As soon as he thought of this, Chen Yan felt a little numb, and before he was able to sweep the world, he didn't dare to shout the slogan of "fighting local tyrants and dividing the fields".
Don't say it's shouting, don't even dare to mention it!
It is precisely because of these that Chen Yan racked his brains and only came up with such a fake slogan!
Among them, there is a little practical value of hoeing and destroying captives!
Chen Yan thought about it, and wrote three big characters on the white paper - Dang Capture Army!
Take the meaning of cleansing Hulu, although it looks like nothing at this time, but when the Jin soldiers go south to attack the Central Plains a few years later, the power that these three words can cause is unimaginable.
The splendid land of the Central Plains, there are many people who are unwilling to be Hulu horses and cattle!
