Chapter 191: Turning to Henan
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, time has come to the sixth year of Daming Chongzhen.
In the sixth year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, this young son of heaven has gradually controlled this old empire for six years.
In the past six years, Chongzhen faced the panic of ascending to the throne for the first time, and the sentence "Don't eat in the palace" is the best portrayal of his realm at that time
In six years, Chongzhen also experienced all his efforts to defeat the nine-thousand-year-old Wei Zhongxian, who was invincible at that time. At that time, he was a young man, high-spirited, and had the majestic posture of the lord of Zhongxing.
In the past six years, Chongzhen has also experienced the excitement of the platform's call, and Yuan Chonghuan's Pingliao sounded like the most pleasant silk bamboo in the world to Chongzhen's ears.
In the past six years, Chongzhen has also experienced the extreme danger of the Jin army's seizure of the city, and even extreme humiliation, he has always claimed to be the lord of Zhongxing, but he was slapped in the face by reality, the capital has been besieged again since the change of Tumubao, and his emperor was swept away, and he had to issue an order to King Qin in a hurry, which was very embarrassing.
In six years, Chongzhen also experienced the Denglai Rebellion, which was different from other ordinary peasant army rebellions, which were their own army, organized into a system that betrayed them, and began to start anew, wanting to tear down their own century-old shop. Emperor Chongzhen always felt that he was still a Daoist, but he didn't expect that his own courtiers would begin to betray him.
In the past six years, Chongzhen has also experienced sporadic rebellions of the people in various places, in the case of the official army recruiting and appeasing, but the people who rebelled are more and more, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger. Is the appeasement policy wrong? However, so many officials have been dismissed, and the suppression is constantly changing, but there is no improvement.
In the past six years, although the broken ship with a long history of Daming has not reached the day it sank, it did leak everywhere, making the craftsmen who repaired the ship busy and exhausted.
Chongzhen is most pleased that he is not alone, and he still has excellent generals under him, who are giving him hope.
Hong Chengchou and Yang Sichang, these outstanding generals in terms of strategy, "four positives, six corners, and ten faces." "All of them have played an outstanding role, compressing the living space of the peasant army.
Cao Wenzhao, Lu Xiangsheng, Yuan Chao, these outstanding tactical generals, like firefighters, extinguished fires again and again.
These people gave Chongzhen a lot of courage to face the bleak country.
In the sixth year of Chongzhen, the torrent of the peasant army hit Henan.
It turned out that most of the peasant armies active in Shanxi and Shaanxi came to Henan with hunger, anger, fear, hope, and complex emotions.
The Rolling Earth Dragon is a member of this group of peasant troops, and it is a force.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, when the peasant army was raised, it always gave itself a nickname, and the rolling dragon was no exception, giving itself such a down-to-earth name.
The Rolling Dragon is also human, and as its name suggests, it looks very down-to-earth. has an unobtrusive figure and appearance, so inconspicuous that he is thrown into the pile, and he can't be found immediately. If you want to say that the only thing that is a little bit iconic, it is that there is some fat on the face. This is too extravagant in this day and age.
"Where is this bird place, why don't you see the big city?" The rolling earth dragon was a little irritable because he had been jolting on the horse for a long time, and he scolded and asked his subordinates.
"King, let's go along the Yellow River now, now we are on the border of Henan, and we have finally left Shanshan."
"Henan is good, there are no elite soldiers and strong generals, most of them are some township soldiers, it is estimated that they can't even play with a big knife, the king is waiting for a good escape." The school heard the rolling dragon ask. Hurriedly replied to the rolling dragon in a flattering tone.
"Well, that's good. Shanxi, Shaanxi. Our Lao Tzu can be regarded as snatching it again. Even if you scrape the ground, there is not much oil and water. This time I came to Henan, so I can produce food, and we don't scrape it well, so I'm really sorry for the reputation of our rolling dragon. The corners of the rolling dragon's mouth twitched as he spoke, and the horizontal flesh on his face trembled with the smile of the rolling dragon.
"Yes, king, we can get rid of Cao Wenzhao's mad dog in this way, and I don't know what bones the emperor gave him, but he made us miserable." The school wanted to curry favor with the Rolling Dragons, and went on to say that they could stay away from a danger.
When he heard Cao Wenzhao, this rolling earth dragon was full of cleverness even if he was sitting on a horse.
"His grandmother's bear, why don't you mention that broom star?" As he spoke, the rolling dragon raised his horsewhip and slammed it on the schoolmaster's body, making a crisp whip sound.
"I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore. Ask the king to spare him. The school endured the pain, did not dare to shout out in the slightest, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
After venting the anger and fear in his heart, the rolling dragon also impatiently continued to ride forward, ignoring the school.
But these three words of Cao Wenzhao. But it has been lingering in the mind of the rolling dragon.
"Cao Wenzhao, Cao Wenzhao. You're a broom star. Whoever you want to find trouble, go to other people's troubles, but please don't come to my troubles. The rolling dragon recited silently in his heart as if he was begging the Buddha to worship God.
"Hurry up for Lao Tzu, who the fuck is dragging Lao Tzu back. Lao Tzu didn't mind giving him a hard time. After thinking about it, Rolling Earth Dragon still ordered the whole army to quickly move away from the Shanshan region along the Yellow River. In this way, he can bring a false sense of security in his heart.
The other soldiers heard the order from their king, the Rolling Dragon. I didn't dare to slack off, and I accelerated one after another.
Along the way, the rolling dragon was worried and looking forward to arriving at a certain city in Henan as soon as possible, such a complicated mood.
Ultimately. Huaiqing (now Qinyang, Henan), which appeared in front of the rolling dragon, also greatly relieved the uneasiness in the heart of the rolling dragon.
"Damn it. The brethren have suffered for so long. It's like seeing a fat sheep. The rolling dragon licked his greedy saliva and was ecstatic in his heart. Huaiqing, as the center of the Ming Empire, has always been slightly affected by the war.
Although it is not a place of ointment, it can be regarded as a fat sheep that can satisfy your cravings. ”
The rolling dragon here is like a dragon who hasn't eaten for several days, and suddenly sees a piece of fat meat.
And the defenders of Huaiqing over there were full of despair. The defenders, who had not been trained for a long time, were called up to walk up to the city walls. Defend against the hungry wolf peasant army. These people are all like dead ashes in their hearts.
"How's that supposed to be? Send someone to ask for help from all of you, and ask for help from the saints of today. "Huaiqing's Zhizhou, it looks like six gods without a master.
