Chapter 31 Dingxi (2)

After listening to the answers of these soldiers, Li Xinxin had a number in his heart, and completely understood the meaning of Zhu Youxiao's two sentences to him. Li Xin is undoubtedly a genius in this regard, otherwise, there would not be a slogan of "opening the city gate to welcome the king, and the king will not pay for food when he comes" to deceive the people and open the city of the Ming Dynasty. Now Li Xin has decided to fool these native soldiers, maybe he can settle down in the southwest!

Li Xin said: "Brothers of the Yi nationality, Miao nationality and other ethnic minorities and Han nationality, I just asked you why you rebelled against the imperial court, and I heard your answer very clearly. What should you do next?

"First of all, everyone thought that the taxes of the imperial court were too high, and the grain harvested by everyone from farming was taken away, and the big guys had no food to eat, so they rebelled. But who saw the imperial court use a cart or a small cart to pull away your own grain, no one saw it, all you can see is that your grain was pulled away by the Tusi, the head, and the leader, this is the fact, the real imperial grain is actually less than one-fifteenth of your harvest, simply put, you have received fifteen stone of grain this year, and the court has only received one stone of grain, is it too much? You may want to ask, where did more than half of our family's food go? I can tell you clearly, your grain is all in the house of the toast, the chief, and the chief, they have deceived you, they have deceived you, they have hidden all your grain in their own homes under the guise of collecting the emperor's grain, and some people who work in their warehouses must have seen it, and they have hoarded countless grains in their homes, have you ever seen them work in the fields? Now they are afraid that the emperor will send someone to check on them, so they deceived everyone into rebelling against the imperial court, the imperial court sent the army not to collect grain and fight everyone, but to let everyone pay less food and eat enough, can you understand my words? I don't think there's a fool.

"There are also people who say that the court bullied us Yi people, Miao people and other minority people, and robbed your land, in fact, it is not entirely like this, the emperor said, we are all the emperor's people, we are all brothers and sisters, we are all a family, no matter what ethnic group, we have a common ancestor, we are all descendants of the dragon, we should not be inferior, we are all equal brothers and sisters, we are all hateful, sinful, selfish, and should be killed Those toasts and leaders deceived everyone, let everyone go and die for them. Some of you may have seen that when Fan Long ran for his life yesterday, he still had to carry a large cart of silver, so if he distributed it to everyone, would he run fast soon? He is reluctant, he is one of the stingy and insatiable people, I think these people are worth working for them, fools know that they can't, are there many fools in us?

"Tell you clearly, the emperor said that all the Tusi, chiefs, leaders, etc. who participated in the rebellion this time, their land and property will be confiscated, except for part of the food needed by the imperial army, all of them will be distributed to everyone, and distributed to the slaves and serfs who farm for their families, and the court will give everyone a title deed, then the land will always be your own. Are there fools who don't want to do it?

"Our slogan is: Kill extravagant Chongming, slaves will no longer be poor. Follow the court, and the people are rich. Do you understand? ”

"Kill extravagant Chongming, slaves are no longer poor", "Follow the court, the people are rich".

"Kill extravagant Chongming, slaves are no longer poor", "Follow the court, the people are rich".

In an instant, these two slogans were shouted like thunder, and of course the leader must be the person pre-arranged by Li Xin.

I have to say that Li Xin is a genius in inspiring people's hearts, Li Xin's speech really played a role in encouraging people's hearts, more than 20,000 rebellious soldiers in Li Xin's flickering, instantly took a big turn in their hearts, the emperor is a good person, the court is a good court, the bad thing is the Tusi, the head, the leader, they have been lying to everyone, everyone is not a fool.

Li Xin quickly organized these native soldiers, put together every rebellious Tusi, leader, and leader with their native soldiers, and everyone recommended a person with authority to be the team leader, to be responsible for the division of land, and to execute those Tusi in public, and the food was kept to rest for the time being. For the sake of safety, Li Xin first organized 10 task forces, each of which sent 200 musketeers and equipped with five "two-kicking" small cannons, to gradually advance in the direction of Yongning from near to far. Li Xin also called on everyone to actively serve the imperial army, including providing intelligence, leading the way, etc., telling everyone that the victory must be protected by everyone, and that they must not rebel again, otherwise those Tusimen will forcibly seize their land and property. These people regard land and property as more important than their lives, so how can they not do their best to serve Li Xin.

Sun Chengzong and Qi Jin are now considering the question of the route to Chengdu, whether to go up the river to Luzhou and then march into Chengdu, or to go directly to the northwest from Chongqing and cross Suichuan to Chengdu. These two roads have their own advantages and disadvantages, starting from Luzhou can cut off the retreat of luxury Chongming, so as to achieve the purpose of encirclement and annihilation, but there are still Yongning's troubles behind. If you are still afraid that Yu Chongming will break the siege and retreat from Suining, and then return to Yongning, so that you will not be able to annihilate the main force of Hao Chongming for a long time, the advantage is that you can quickly relieve the siege of Chengdu and reduce the losses of Chengdu.

Just when they discussed, things changed, this change may be brought by Zhu Youxiao, because of Li Xin's instigation, the more than 20,000 rebel soldiers he fooled under the leadership of more than 2,000 musketeers, launched a vigorous land reform movement, all the Tusi, Touren, and Chieftain who participated in the rebellion were divided among the nearly 30,000 people, and soon these nearly 30,000 people became Li Xin's hardcore subordinates, because these people also had relatives and friends in the territory of other Tusi, so the news spread very quickly. Before Sun Chengzong and Qi Jin made a decision, these tens of thousands of people had already occupied Zunyi, Hejiang, and Luzhou, and there was a tendency to spread to the vicinity of Yongning. The change in the situation is unexpected, An Bangyan, who originally rebelled in the second year of the Apocalypse in history, rebelled, why? Luxury Chongming's sister Luxury Shehui is the wife of Yaochen of Guizhou Shuixi Tutongzhi, after Yaochen died, his son succeeded to the throne, his son was young, Luxury Shehui took charge of his affairs, An Bangyan is Yaochen's clan, he mastered the military power. Li Xin's powerful movement to fight the Tusi and divide the fields shocked An Bangyan, so he contacted the nearby Tusimen to rebel, and for a time the entire Guizhou, Huguang, and southeastern Sichuan Tusimen were united to rebel, and they formed nearly 100,000 native soldiers to besiege Guiyang.

There are always good things in the world and there are disadvantages, and there are good things in them, and there are good things in them, and there are good things in bad things. An Bangyan's rebellion directly determined the direction of Sun Chengzong and Qi Jin's march, and the two decided to advance the army in Guiyang, solved the Guiyang problem, and then sent troops from Guiyang, killed to Shuixi, and finally surrounded and annihilated luxury Chongming in Chengdu, but in this way, Chengdu may be dangerous, weigh the pros and cons, consider the overall situation, or destroy An Bangyan first, settle the rear.

Solved the problem of the direction of the army, Sun Chengzong and Qi Jin went straight to Guiyang with 30,000 soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, and when they passed through Zunyi City, the two saw Li Xin, Li Xin immediately prepared enough food and grass and military salaries for the two without saying a word, it is said that Li Xin did not have to do this, but Li Xin considered that it was a long way to enter Guiyang and then transfer to Chengdu, so he still told Sun Chengzong and Qi Jin that some of the materials could be hoarded in Luzhou first, and that it would be more possible to quickly relieve the siege and solve the food problem if they went to Guiyang lightly.
