Chapter 60: No Way Back
Walking on the official road, in addition to lamenting the number of victims, hearing about the distribution of food, more than 4,000 people were crowded in half a day, although many of them were dressed as nearby villagers, but it also made people quite emotional. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
What everyone sighed the most was the solidity of the Wang family, and the grain alone was enough to fill five large warehouses, and after the distribution of the victims, there was still half of the warehouse left.
In addition to grain, the Wang family is also a treasure of gold and silver, countless, enough to load three carts, more than 20,000 taels.
Thinking of the days of robbing houses in the past, and comparing with what adults do today, Ma Chao, who was born in Xiangma, was addicted.
Although Ma Chao and others also robbed large households when they were making ringing horses in the past, they often moved the looted food to the cottage to eat, and distributed the food to the victims and the surrounding villagers like adults.
Seeing a solid family on the side of the road, Ma Chao couldn't bear it, and called the horse over to ask if he wanted to do another vote?
Seeing everyone's strange expressions, Yang Xuan was shocked, if everyone is addicted, what is the difference between this and Liukou?
Hurriedly convened a meeting of everyone and told everyone that in order to appease the victims at that time, coupled with the fact that the Wang family had done a lot of evil, it had caused public outrage to cause harm to the neighbors, so they raided their homes (of course, they did not admit robbery).
If everyone sees that the rich are all looted, what is the difference between Zhang Xianzhong and the local tyrant?
The gap between the rich and the poor is huge, that is because there is a problem with the tax policy of the Ming Dynasty, large families do not pay taxes and do not bear labor, but for ordinary people, not only the imperial court has increased the three salaries, but the local government is even more harsh on miscellaneous taxes, so that the people have no way out, and everyone has rebelled.
Now back in Yilong County, vigorously implement the new policy, clear the land, clean up the household registration, and pay taxes as a whole to ensure social fairness.
It turned out that after Li Zicheng captured Beijing, Li Yutian, the governor of Liaodong, and Ma Ke, the general soldier, led his troops to surrender, but Li Zicheng did not recognize the threat of the Tartars in Jianzhou in Liaodong at all, and thought that North China had been unified, and now the task before him was to stabilize the situation in the north and lead the army to the south to unify the world.
Due to the proximity of Sichuan and Shaanxi, and the location in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong have entered Sichuan many times in history without success.
If Sichuan is occupied, just as in history, the Qin State conquered the Chu State and the Sui Dynasty conquered the Southern Dynasty, and the army went down the Yangtze River and was unstoppable.
Considering the importance of the Sichuan strategy, Li Zicheng ordered Li Yutian to be the envoy of the Sichuan Festival and Ma Ke to be the general soldier, leading the Liaodong soldiers and horses into Sichuan to control Sichuan as a partial division.
After settling Wu Sangui and other northern warlords, Li Zicheng either appointed a general to march south, or personally led the army, so as to achieve the unification of the world.
The Ming Dynasty built the capital of Beijing, and the weight of the nine sides was in Liaodong, and the soldiers and horses in Liaodong were second to none in terms of treatment and quality of soldiers.
Since the Wanli period, Liaodong has been in constant war for many years, and Liaodong soldiers and horses are mostly elite divisions that have been in battle for a long time, and their reputation is unstoppable.
During the civil war at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Liaodong generals such as Cao Wenzhao, Zuo Liangyu, and Huang Degong, who were transferred to Liaodong, became famous generals on the domestic battlefield.
In the face of tens of thousands of Liaodong soldiers and horses, Shi Jinchen, the governor of Shunqing Prefecture, Zhao Sixuan, and Chen Yingrui and Feng Youqing, who were guarding the left and right, knew that there was a huge difference between the enemy and me, and hurriedly led the Shunqing defenders to surrender when Ma Ke led the army.
Now Ma Ke led 3,000 Mongolian cavalry and more than 10,000 Liaodong soldiers and horses to garrison Nanchong County, Shunqing Zhisuo, and now he is eyeing Zhang Xianzhong for Sichuan.
Now when they heard that Ma Ke led 3,000 Mongolian cavalry and more than 10,000 Liaodong soldiers to occupy Nanchong, everyone panicked one by one, some suggested that the Pengzhou base area be lost, and some suggested fleeing to eastern Sichuan, so as not to encounter the Liaodong soldiers and horses and make them disgraced.
Yang Xuan listened quietly, carefully analyzing it with historical memory, as if Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong both pretended to be the first heroes, thinking that the other party was the biggest obstacle to their competition for the world, and they would want to deal with it quickly.
According to the historical trajectory, Li Zicheng has probably been defeated from Beijing under the joint attack of Wu Sangui and the Barbarian Qing Dynasty, so it seems that the troops and horses of Li Yutian and Ma Ke will inevitably collapse without strong support.
Besides, Shunqing Mansion spreads for hundreds of miles and has a vast territory, whether it is Li Zicheng or Zhang Xianzhong, it is impossible to control the entire territory of Shunqing Mansion in a short period of time, and he can also use this to establish his own base.
Thinking of this, Yang Xuan smiled and said, "Everyone, the snipe and the clam compete, and the fisherman profits."
I have just received news that although Li Zicheng occupied Beijing, he was defeated by the Manchus in Liaodong, and now he is fleeing all the way to Shanxi.
Besides, everyone in the world says that Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong have a Yuliang complex, and the two are constantly fighting each other, and they both wanted to kill each other.
And Zhang Xianzhong has just occupied Chengdu, and he must want to recover the whole territory of Sichuan.
In this way, the two sides will inevitably meet each other again, and most of us are Pengzhou people, and we garrisoned Yilong County last year, treated the people well, and developed production, and the people of Pengzhou have a good impression of us.
Bandits and bullies like Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong can hide in Dabie Mountain and Shangluo Mountain for several years.
In this way, it only takes a year and a half, and when Wang Shi reacts and the imperial court sends a large army to encircle and suppress the Liukou, Wang Shi is in southern Sichuan, and our lone army is in northern Sichuan. ”
Seeking wealth and danger, especially in troubled times, there is such a good opportunity, and everyone applauds loudly.
But Chen Huaixi and the others didn't think so, they followed Yang Xuan all day and night for the past two days, Li Zicheng defeated the Beijing Division, what a big deal this is, he didn't know, why did Yang Xuan know about it?
Looking at Yang Xuan, Chen Huaixi was puzzled: "My lord, you, how do you know that Li Zicheng's army defeated Beijing?" ”
Stunned in his heart, Yang Xuan smiled and said, "Brother Chen, you can understand it after a little analysis."
Let's think about it, since the first emperor ascended the throne, the Liaodong Jianzhou Tartars entered the Koubei Zhili three times, the army approached the Beijing Division, the Taishi Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou was not dead and surrendered, the biggest scourge of the Ming Dynasty was the Liaodong Tartars, followed by Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and other rogues.
Although Li Zicheng captured Beijing, he did not send troops to stabilize the situation in Liaodong, but transferred Liaodong soldiers and horses to the southwest, which was bound to be taken advantage of by the barbarian Qing Tatars, and the Tatar army entered the Central Plains and occupied Beijing. ”
Everyone was shocked, although everyone had never seen the Barbarian Tartar, but the ferocity of the Barbarian Tartar had heard of it and learned it.
Sichuan Qin Liangyu's white pole soldiers also participated in the old slave Nurhachi's attack on Shenyang and Liaoyang, because Shenyang City was successfully attacked by the old slave, Qin Liangyu's white pole soldiers and Qi Jiguang's Qi family army were defeated in a bloody battle, and finally the whole army was basically wiped out.
Since Chongzhen ascended the throne, the Manqing has invaded Middle-earth three times in a row, approaching Beijing, Jinan and other Dayi, each time more ferocious, the Manqing can be said to be the national enemy of the Ming Dynasty.
In addition to the national feud, the barbarian Qing is everyone's family hatred, every family has suffered from it, in order to deal with the invasion of the barbarian Qing, the Ming Dynasty levied a salary, and each mu of land was levied a penny of silver.
Hearing that the Manqing Dynasty, an enemy hated by the family and the country, invaded the Central Plains, Chen Huaixi said with a melancholy face: "My lord, this, this, is this reliable?"
If the barbarians enter the Central Plains, what will we do? ”
Yang Xuan laughed and said, "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, what are you afraid of?" Although the Barbarian Qing is violent, its population is only more than 500,000 people, and the army is only more than 100,000?
The number of barbarians is small, we exchange one, two, three for one, what's the big deal? The real terrible thing about the Barbarian Qing is the traitors, and the Manqing takes in Kong Youde, Shang Kexi, Geng Zhongming and other traitors.
Compared with the Manqing, the number of traitors is larger, as long as we are afraid of Kong Youde, Shang Kexi, and Geng Zhongming in the future, it is equivalent to cutting off the arms of the Manqing, so it is easy to capture the Manqing again. ”
Everyone laughed when they heard it, and Pan Mengke next to him said noncommittally: "My lord, Manqing is now very far away from us, and now the **** of the Great Western Army has arrived in Suining, and now it is in hot pursuit, and there is Ma Ke in front of him to occupy Nanchong, blocking the way, my lord, what should I do for today?" ”
Yang Xuan glanced at Ma Chao next to him out of the corner of his eye, and said with a smile: "What's the big deal, although Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong are powerful, they are not familiar with the place where they have just arrived in northern Sichuan, and we are all locals, we don't take the avenue, just go around." ”
When the people heard the bitter complaints, they did not take the main road and took the small road, the narrow path meant that they had to throw away all the big cars.
