Chapter 31: Rebellion Against the Army

Whether it is according to the traces of history or the situation of the anti-army, Tang Xidong knows that the anti-army will not stay in Shanxi for long.

But suddenly, the rebels poured out, and there was no sign of going north to the border of the Beijing Division.

Still surprised Tang Xidong.

But after thinking about it carefully, Tang Xidong found that there were people with excellent strategies among the rebels.

It's great at this point in time.

Henan people are full of grievances.

The Ming Dynasty mobilized troops everywhere to provide disaster relief.

At this time, the military strength of the Beijing division was weak, and the attention was not on the anti-army.

It was a great time to go north to Beijing.

In Tang Xidong's view, the focus of the anti-army is estimated not to be in Beijing, but in Henan.

The public outrage after the disaster is a good time to absorb a large number of people.

There is one more thing that Tang Xidong doesn't know.

That is, the anti-army felt the threat from Binh Duong.

When Tang Xidong pocketed all of Shanxi except Liaozhou and Lu'an, it showed a point.

In Shanxi, his power far surpassed that of the Ming army before him.

How can you allow others to snore next to the couch?

Liaozhou and Lu'an can be occupied by the rebels for the time being, but once Tang Xidong takes care of the whole of Shanxi smoothly, it is inevitable that the next step will be to occupy Liaozhou and Lu'an.

The rebels could not avoid meeting with the soldiers of Pingyang.

In order to avoid war, and in order to preserve strength, the rebel army will have to leave sooner or later and give up the two places.

In this way, it is the time of day.

And Liaozhou and Lu'an are close to Beijing, which is to occupy the geographical advantage.

The so-called harmony is the anger of the people of Henan, as long as the army enters Henan, it will inevitably follow the clouds.

At that time, the millions of righteous troops in the palm of your hand, the world is so big, where can you not settle down?

In addition to this, there is one more point.

That is the contradiction between Wang Jiayin and King Chuang continues to intensify as the strength of both sides increases, and in Liaozhou, because the eight kings Zhang Xianzhong has a burst personality, he likes to kill people for fun, and mutilates corpses.

King Chuang repeatedly couldn't see it in his eyes, but he couldn't say it clearly, and the two sides secretly disliked.

The contradictions among the anti-army have reached a state of imminent eruption.

In order to prevent cannibalism, but also to be able to maintain the situation of mutual support in front of us.

The rebels in the two places had to introduce the contradictions to Daming.

So there was this sudden incident when the rebels suddenly raised troops to attack Jingshi.

One way or another.

At this time, the situation is the most favorable for Tang Xidong.

Isn't it a good thing that someone pokes his head out to cover himself, to be a target, and to give himself two places for nothing?

At the first time when he learned that the rebels were heading north.

Tang Xidong began to mobilize troops.

The 150,000 new troops who were being trained were assigned to Jia Hu and Zhang Sanshi to march into Liaozhou and Lu'an respectively and occupy two places.

At the same time, the defense policy of the whole of Shanxi after the occupation of the two places began to be revised.

Fenzhou and Qinzhou were surrounded and there was no need for a large army to garrison them.

Thereupon.

Ren Li Shangquan led an army of 100,000 to guard the east, west and north lines of Taiyuan Mansion.

Zhang Xiahai garrisoned 50,000 troops, waited for Liaozhou to be occupied, and then led the army into Liaozhou, guarding Liaozhou and defending the eastern front.

After Jia Hu conquered Liaozhou, he went south to Lu'an and led 50,000 new troops to defend Lu'an.

After Zhang Sanshi captured Lu'an, he still led his army back to Zezhou to defend the southern front, with the same 50,000 troops.

Then there is Pingyang, which will be guarded by Tang Xidong himself.

Once the rebel army attacked and plundered the Beijing Division, and then moved south to Henan, except for the eastern front near the Beijing Division, the pressure in the north, west, and south directions would inevitably be reduced. Just keep an eye on the direction of the Kyoshi at all times.

The Shaanxi rebels have lost most of their losses, and now they are temporarily unable to come.

On the three sides of the north, not only to guard the three sides, but also to worry about Tangxi going northeast and insufficient self-protection, how can it go south? Especially after there is a precedent for Houjin to break through the barrier, defense after gold is the top priority.

In the south, just after the flood receded, the rebels were very likely to move south to Henan, and the pressure would be almost non-existent at that time, because the Ming army was pinned down by the rebels.

And so it goes.

Tang Xidong's defensive pressure was minimal.

You only need to manage the whole territory of Shanxi, recuperate, and constantly strengthen the strength in your hands.

At the end of March, Jia Hu captured Liaozhou and Zhang Sanshi occupied Lu'an.

There were few major obstacles.

Then the transfer of garrisons in various places was completed.

This was followed by the governance of Liaozhou and Lu'an.

Because the rebels almost coerced the people in the territory, Tang Xidong still needed to attract people from other provinces to fill it again.

At this point, Tang Xidong is waiting for the rebels to introduce the war into Henan, and once the war in Henan is chaotic, a large number of people will inevitably be displaced.

Not everyone will rebel from thieves, and as long as the people are lured in, there will inevitably be a large number of Henan people entering the Jin, and then the population problem can be solved.

At the end of March, when Tangxi East occupied two places.

Shaanxi's anti-army is like a bamboo.

At the same time that Daming was caught off guard again, he attacked the city all the way and approached the Jingshi.

The rebel army that came out of Liaozhou defeated the two major prefectures in the southwest of Beijing in one go.

Shunde and Zhending are the two major mansions of Beijing.

Business is prosperous and the population is large.

After the rebels conquered, because of the abundant wealth of the two places, they immediately stationed in the two places and began to plunder.

This is the short-sightedness of the anti-army, fighting wherever it goes.

Actually, it's understandable.

These people are not attacking the city and grabbing the land and occupying the territory, they know that the territory of the Beijing division cannot be occupied, so they will naturally grab the benefits first.

But in this way, it also gave Daming time to relax.

Emperor Chongzhen has been really busy lately.

Busy with what?

Busy pooling money, busy spending money.

Since he received the baton from the Ming Emperor.

I found out that I was really unlucky.

It's nothing if a person is unlucky, but when he is an emperor, it's a big deal.

Natural and man-made disasters and chaos are repeated.

The Korean political parties continued to fight, and the foreign captives entered the customs every year, and they all hit the capital city in the second year.

Some gave alms to the people, but were stumped by a penny.

During the reign of his grandfather Wanli, the treasury was full of money and grain, and his father and brother were not so embarrassed.

to himself, but his pockets jingle tightly.

Compared with his grandfather, he went to court day and day, took care of the government and sat at the desk day and night, thinking about illness and suffering and couldn't sleep at night.

Compared with his father, he is not a woman, there are few concubines in the harem, and there are few descendants.

is older than his brother, he is not greedy for clever things, suppresses the eunuchs, and reuses capable ministers.

But compared with the previous three dynasties, this world is like a quilt of withered wool.

It's terrible!

Isn't he Chongzhen the chosen one, isn't he the master of Zhongxing, is Daming going to die in him, and he wants to become a sinner of the Zhu family?

Emperor Chongzhen, of course, did not want to be discouraged.

So, I started to do everything I could to change everything.

The first is money.

Hubu Shangshu, Bi Ziyan is incompetent, so he found a reason, went to prison, meditated, Emperor Chongzhen found that the provinces still owe a lot of salt to the government, and there is no money at the moment, so he can only collect debts.

Therefore, he ordered that there should be a complete explanation, otherwise it would be dealt with one by one.

Just settled the matter of money and food.

Then came the bad news that the backyard was on fire.

The Shaanxi rebels began to make trouble again, and this time they directly sent troops to the Beijing Division.

Emperor Chongzhen, who finally solved one thing, could only pounce on another thing with one mind.

Emperor Chongzhen is tired!

At this moment, I wish someone could break it down for me.

But thinking about the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, Chongzhen looked around blankly, and there was no one in his heart.

Inexplicably, I began to think of Tangxidong, which had occupied the entire territory of Shanxi at this moment.

If the other party is really a loyal and patriotic person, it would be great.

At least, it can help you solve the Shaanxi anti-army.

It's a pity that Emperor Chongzhen knew that it was impossible, and from the beginning of Tang Xidong to lead the army to occupy the entire territory of Shanxi, the other party pierced the thin layer of paper film.

Emperor Chongzhen can only hope at this time that the other party can live in peace for a few days, and don't take advantage of the anti-army commotion to suddenly appear.

He really doesn't have the troops, money and food to encircle and suppress Tang Xidong now.

While collecting arrears of taxes, he continued to issue orders to order the Ming army of the Daimyofu, as well as the Sichuan army, Zuo Liangyu and others who were in Henan to relieve the disaster, to go north to suppress the thieves.

The other party came to the door, and Emperor Chongzhen had to focus on coping.

At the same time, the rebels were also plundering property and food in both places.

Emperor Chongzhen was given a breather of respite.
