Chapter 058: The Power of the Duke of Dingguo
"When I go to Shaanxi, the general army will take Yansui Town as the main base, and it is the most important thing to put out the riots around Yansui Town first." Zhao Zongwu looked at the marching map with an indifferent expression, and the combat staff officer next to him lowered his head and quickly recorded the key points he had just mentioned.
Because he did not bring a military general who could fight, Chen Qiyu, who was supposed to be the first chief of staff, could only lead the front army to set off first.
In order to ensure the stability of the army on the way, it is the safest way to move forward in divisions and batches, and at the same time indirectly reduce the corresponding supply pressure.
In order to be able to fundamentally solve the ripples of civil unrest in Shaanxi in one fell swoop.
At the same time, in order to be able to drive the peasant rebel army, move forward according to the established deployment route, and sort out the land of Guanzhong, so this time Zhao Zongwu led his troops to Shaanxi, and set up the old nest of the commander-in-chief's mansion in Yansui Town.
In the core area of Yansui Town, Zhao Zongwu was able to build the most critical facilities to ensure that there would be no accidents in the core of the most important things.
Moreover, if Yansui Town can be truly controlled, then Ningxia Town can be choked in the west, Taiyuan Town can be controlled in the east, grassland can be controlled in the north, and the rebel army can be attacked in the south, and its strategic purpose is self-evident.
At the same time, in the process of rushing to Yansui Town, Zhao Zongwu has ordered people to gather the displaced people along the way, and with the help of the food of the Penglai Chamber of Commerce, he wants to reclaim a core area with Yansui Town as the core.
The army crossed the Lugou Bridge, passed through Fangshan, Du Bauhinia Pass, crossed the Great Wall defense line out of the north and Zhili, entered the western border of Shanxi, and crossed Taiyuan Mansion......
The hardships along the way can be imagined.
But since it is a march to fight, then it is necessary to show the majesty of the Heavenly Army, in order to add a dose of strength to the place, Zhao Zongwu must lead the army to Shaanxi as soon as possible.
Therefore, the redemption camp has their first task, which is to take Huang Liji, Shi Fenglai, and Zhang Ruitu as the leaders, so that they can continue to gather displaced people to go to Yansui Town.
According to the goal set by Zhao Zongwu, no matter what method they use, they must bring 800,000 people to Yansui Town, and in the process, they must establish an orderly maintenance class, otherwise they will be severely punished!
At first, when Huang Liji and the others got such a military order, they were miserable in their hearts, but in order to be able to redeem themselves as soon as possible, and at the same time to be able to leave a good impression in front of Zhao Zongwu, they also began the most unbearable process.
In order to be able to gather the number of people who set the target, Huang Liji kept forcing himself forward, and it turned out that this person was forced out......
In the same way, this army will inevitably attract the attention of all forces.
When it comes to Shanxi, I am afraid that no one does not know the name of the Jin merchants, but the Jin merchant groups in this time and space have not survived their glorious moments.
The reason is that Zhao Zongwu once laid out Shanxi and carried out an all-round attack on the Shanxi Jin merchants who served Jiannu behind their backs, and all their family wealth was looted......
Of course.
Shanxi has been poor since ancient times, and many people want to survive, except for trading, there is no way to do it.
The demise of the Jin merchants of the back clan also brought development opportunities to the middle and low-level Shanxi merchants, which also gave birth to a new situation of the alliance between officials and businessmen.
This has also indirectly led to the emergence of a new force......
If the Jin merchants could collude with Jiannu, why couldn't they collude with the rebels?
After all, this benefit is innocent.
This also made Zhao Zongwu's army move forward in Taiyuan Mansion, and Wang Jiayin, who was far away in Shaanxi, smelled something unusual.
Wang Jiayin, who was born in the border army, because he offended the Shangguan in the army, in order to keep the head on his neck, he fled from the army, of course, his departure was also vigorous, the Shangguan who wanted to get rid of him secretly, was divided by Wang Jiayin!
Just returned to his hometown, but there was not so much food for him to eat, originally joined the army in the border town to fill his stomach, but when he returned to his hometown, there was no food for him to eat, and at the same time, the disasters in the past two years have also caused a sharp decrease in the output of the land, but the heavy taxes have been paid one after another.
This led to Wang Jiayin's revelation......
It's just that among the many rebel armies who rebelled before him and revolted later, it was Wang Jiayin who really went smoothly.
Because Wang Jiayin has been a soldier in the border army for several years, he knows better than anyone else what kind of urine this Ming army is.
It was the rule of knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, which also made Wang Jiayin win victories one after another after the uprising, and finally led to a great increase in his momentum, which made the responders flock to him.
Even with Wang Er, Gao Yingxiang, Wang Ziyong and other miscellaneous rebel army leaders, in order to keep warm in the group, they joined Wang Jiayin's command, respected him as the leader, and listened to his orders to rise up together, which also made the tide of the rebel army quickly spread to the northern territory of Shaanxi, and there was a tendency to spread to the south.
Although Wang Jiayin rebelled in his hometown, Fugu is a place that is easy to attack and difficult to defend, and because it is adjacent to Yansui Town, this also makes Wang Jiayin take the initiative to operate south after the expansion of his power, the purpose is to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the Ming army.
This also made the wave of uprisings in Shaanxi continue to churn.
"The Dingguo Duke of the Ming Court personally led a large army to Shaanxi to quell the rebellion."
In the luxurious main hall.
Wang Jiayin sat on the main throne with a golden knife, and Wang Er, Chong Guangdao, Zhang Xianzhong, Wang Ziyong, Luo Rucai and other core of the rebel army gathered together.
During these months of conquest, Wang Jiayin proved his position with the results of the battle, which also made his prestige in the rebel army extremely high, although it was not a real army.
Although it is said that Zhao Zongwu has made great achievements in Liaodong, the great cause of expelling Jiannu has also made his fame spread throughout the Ming Dynasty, especially in the area where the nine sides are stationed, and almost no one does not know Zhao Zongwu's name.
As Wang Jiayin, who was born in the border army, of course knows very well what a ruthless character Zhao Zongwu is.
It was also after learning that Zhao Zongwu personally led his troops to come to the campaign, which also made Wang Jiayin think of how to temporarily avoid the edge and further expand the prestige of the rebel army.
After listening to Wang Jiayin's words, the leaders of the rebel army sitting on both sides also showed a little strangeness in their expressions.
Dingguo Gong!
Although they said that they had not met Zhao Zongwu, Zhao Zongwu's fame was really not unknown to ordinary people.
This kind of fierce generals who can fight are here, so it is definitely not a good thing for them to follow.
What's next?
This has become a matter of hesitation in the hearts of many people, and even more, some people are thinking about how to leave this place and avoid Zhao Zongwu's army......
