Chapter 060: The Arrogant Rebel Army (Part I)
"From this moment on, we will lead the soldiers and horses under our command, and go to Qingyang Mansion, Pingliang Mansion, Fengxiang Mansion, Xi'an Mansion and other places, since he Zhao Zongwu wants to lead the army to conquer us, then Lao Tzu will first give him the whole Shaanxi to disturb him!" Wang Jiayin's expression was a little fanatical, and his words were even more excited: "You all have to remember one thing, when you get to the place, you must kill the rich households, scatter grain and grass, gather the people, and gather as many young people as possible in every place!! ”
Ever since he knew that Zhao Zongwu was going to lead troops to conquer them, Wang Jiayin had been thinking about how to play against the mighty Zhao Zongwu these days.
Because he had been a border soldier before, Wang Jiayin knew better than anyone else that Zhao Zongwu was powerful, and in order to ensure that he could enjoy the glory and wealth forever, under hard thinking and meditation, he came up with such a desperate plan!
More than 30 leaders of the rebel army, including Wang Ziyong, Wang Er, Chongguangdao, Zhang Xianzhong, Gao Yingxiang, Luo Rucai, King Sweeping the Ground, Xing Red Wolf, Black Evil God, King of Troubled Times, Mantianxing, and King Li Jin, all showed fanaticism in their eyes after listening to the strategy of the big leader Wang Jiayin.
Some time ago, because they knew that Zhao Zongwu was going to lead the army to come, this also made the hearts of the leaders of the Ying Ying weigh on the heavy stone, although they said that they rose up, but how strong their own strength was, they knew best in their own hearts, how could this ragtag army gathered everywhere be the opponent of the elite division, not to mention that the leader was still the new god of war of the Ming Dynasty!
Looking at the people who gradually became fanatical in their eyes, Wang Jiayin stared at everyone like a torch: "Remember, don't be nostalgic for the place you went!"
Our opponent this time is Zhao Zongwu, the strongest man in the Ming Dynasty!
After sweeping the rich households in various regions and gathering the young and strong, we must operate to Xi'an Mansion as quickly as possible, and Xi'an City is the land of Longxing!
When our department masters Xi'an Mansion, even if he Zhao Zongwu is brave and strong, he will not be able to compete with our department in a short period of time! ”
Gao Yingxiang smiled: "Yes! Big Boss! Since the Ming court can send Zhao Zongwu, then it proves that the news of our uprising has spread all over the world!
If we can defeat or even kill the Dingguo Gong of the Ming Dynasty in this battle, and spread it all over the world, it will attract people from all walks of life to vote, and then the big leader will have a great cause! ! ! ”
As the leader of several big forces under Wang Jiayin, Gao Yingxiang has always admired Wang Jiayin, not only because of his courage and courage, but also because he has no choice in terms of righteousness, which also makes Gao Yingxiang willing to work under Wang Jiayin.
It is worth mentioning here that the founders of several peasant uprising forces active in the late Ming Dynasty, Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Wang Ziyong, Li Zicheng, etc., were all under Wang Jiayin in the early years of Chongzhen, but later Wang Jiayin was murdered, which led to the slow dispersion of the originally powerful peasant rebel army......
"What Leader Gao said is right, and I agree with what he said!" Zhang Xianzhong narrowed his eyes slightly, but his tone was sonorous and powerful: "The big leader has a plan, since our army can't fight Zhao Zongwu's troops at this stage, then retreat to the second best place to stir up the whole Shaanxi Province."
According to what I know, the harvest in the entire northern Shaanxi region is not good, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't rain, even those rich Hanhan people take this opportunity to get to a dead end than the farmers!
Taking advantage of this opportunity to further expand the rebel forces in Shaanxi will only benefit us, and there will be no harm! ”
It was successively recognized by Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong, which also made Wang Ziyong, Wang Er, Chongguangdao and other leaders of the rebel army have no opinions.
Wang Jiayin said with a bit of pride in his expression: "Okay! Since you don't have an opinion on this, let's divide the general area.
In order to set an example, Lao Tzu led the army south to operate in Xi'an, Gao Yingxiang's department set off from Mizhi, and Zhang Xianzhong's department ......"
Since he is the big leader, then Wang Jiayin must give himself a way to quickly expand his power, although others have criticism in their hearts, but they have not said it openly, after all, they are all mixed with Wang Jiayin.
And so.
Just when Zhao Zongwu led the army and was still marching towards Shaanxi in Taiyuan Mansion, the rebel army led by Wang Jiayin began to operate separately and move south!
As a result, the entire northern Shaanxi was completely plunged into chaos in a short period of time.
As the existence closest to the deployment, Gao Yingxiang led the forces of the headquarters, and it didn't take long for him to enter Mizhi County.
In order to ensure that the first battle can be won, and at the same time, in order to enhance his prestige, so that he can gather more soldiers and horses in the next battle, Gao Yingxiang attaches great importance to this battle in his heart.
After arriving in Mizhi County for the first time, Gao Yingxiang did not rush to attack the county seat, but broke through two or three villages one after another, killed the gentry, distributed grain, and gathered a group of local young people in Mizhi County, who were provided with good food and drink every day, and even organized their families into a separate battalion.
At the same time, he also said to them: "Ben Shuai has taught you an important task today, the three hundred and seventy-one people you are here, whether it is a team of three or a team of five, spread the daily life under Ben Shuai these days, so that more people who have not eaten or drunk will know that if you follow me Gao Yingxiang, you won't be hungry at all......
Draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle?
But I have to say that Gao Yingxiang's trick is really bad!
After just three days, he gathered more than 70,000 people under his command, and he took this group of people to cross Mizhi County with great dignity, and by the way, he also scared away the defenders of Mizhi County, and captured Mizhi County without a single soldier, which made the gentry in Mizhi City fall into blood mold.
Kill big households, sleep with women, rob money, and divide food......
For a time, it became the purpose of Gao Yingxiang's department, and in this battle, Gao Yingxiang also received more than ten fierce generals, including Li Zicheng!
After all, the peasant uprising has its inferior roots, in order to enjoy everything in a short time, they are not engaged in production, specifically to destroy as the main body, although it is said that a large number of grain rations have been obtained, but it has virtually destroyed the original production system, which also makes the Ming Dynasty gradually pulled into the abyss by the peasant uprising.
Because the people were poor and could not eat, they rebelled, and this uprising grabbed food, but there was no basis for growing food in the area, so they had to go to other places, and in the process they fell into a cycle, which will only lead to more and more serious consequences.
