Chapter 157: The Crusade (2)

In fact, it is easy for Zhao Kang to drive these thieves out of his own territory, and the most critical question now is how to rush and where to rush? Will these thieves be driven to Beijing or to Suzhou and Hangzhou?

And when driving away these "no chan-jie-ji" warriors, there will definitely be many "good people" who have been coerced by hardcore thieves and will return to the light of Zhao Sun and the warm embrace of the Inspector. And which of these people are really good citizens, and which ones are stained with the blood of innocent people, Zhao Kang has no way to tell. In this case, how should these people be arranged and disposed of?

Since these people have joined the team of anti-thieves, in Zhao Kang's thoughts, they should be punished accordingly, otherwise, everyone thinks that "rebellion is not guilty", then in the future, under their own rule, whoever is dissatisfied with life will rise up and rebel, then Zhao Kang will not have a headache to death? Another very important issue is that these people are all Han Chinese, and they belong to the same blood and the same nationality as Zhao Kang, and it is impossible for Zhao Kang to build concentration camps and arrange all of them to "receive barbecue" as he did with the Mongols and Jurchens. It's inhumane.

As a good person who thinks he is kind, gentle, and bodhisattva-hearted, Zhao Kang definitely can't bear to do this kind of thing.

Daniel Zhang's words made Zhao Kang think hard for a long time, and finally, Zhao Kang weakly said to the generals: "Tell me where we will drive these anti-thieves?" How about heading north? ”

Zhao Kang's topic is relatively heavy, driving Li Xianzhong and Li Zicheng to the north, everyone knows what the most powerful young man in the entire Ming Dynasty wants to do. At this most critical time, no one dares to speak, for fear that if they say something wrong, they will lead to death.

But stunned Qing and Erbi are such magical creatures at any time, I saw Hu Dawei, the chief military officer of Shaanxi, get up and say: "My lord, the north of Henan is Shanxi, and Lord Cai Demao, the governor of Shanxi, will definitely not let the thieves enter Shanxi, right?" Moreover, Lord Cai is also loyal to the Governor, and the whole province of Shanxi is within the jurisdiction of the Governor. Let these thieves enter the increasingly prosperous Shanxi Province, it is better to wait for them to stumble in Henan and Huguang. ”

As soon as Hu Dawei's words were finished, all the generals around him lowered their heads and pretended not to know him......

Hu Dawei also noticed that everyone's faces didn't seem to be right, but he didn't realize his problem at all, and asked loudly, "Huh??? What's wrong with you guys? Why are they all like this? Am I not right? ”

At this time, Zhao Kang couldn't wait to drag out this stupid pen with an obvious IQ arrears and shoot him a hundred times. I thought: Nima, how could labor and management put the thieves into Shanxi? I'm not sick, because of the coal mines, Shanxi is now basically all kinds of local tyrants, turtles, and local landlords, and the living standards of the peasants have risen sharply, not to mention the level of not picking up the road and not closing the door at night, but under the "Great Leap Forward" development of a large amount of grain and high-quality seeds brought by Zhao Kang from modern society, the people have basically solved the problem of food and clothing. At least it's been a long time since anyone starved to death.

In this kind of place, which obviously has a lot of development potential, how could Zhao Kang let the locusts like Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong go to the scourge?

Zheng Jiadong, who was sitting next to Hu Dawei, hurriedly got up and pulled Hu Dawei to sit down, and said: "Chief Soldier Hu, the Inspector didn't say that he wanted to drive the thieves to Shanxi, what are you worried about?" Shut up. ”

Zheng Jiadong's words have been said very clearly, but everyone still overestimated Hu Dawei's IQ, and the funny pen shouted in surprise: "Huh?? Don't rush to Shanxi??? Where's that??? It won't be to Hebei, right? ——————”

Speaking of this, Hu Dawei's voice instantly increased by eighty percent: "Ah!! Oh, my God!! Hebei!!! This is to send them to Beijing...... Capital city...... Capital city...... Kyung-Kyung-"

Hu Dawei roared with fear on his face, but when he talked about the capital of "Beijing", he didn't dare to say it anymore, and Beijing didn't say anything for a long time. I saw Zhao Kang angrily say: "Jing Nima! Go back to your place and sit down! From now on you are not allowed to speak, just listen. If you say another word, believe it or not, I'll have someone drag you out right away! ”

Now Hu Dawei was honest, he didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and closed his mouth tightly. If he doesn't know what Zhao Kang wants to do when he gets to this job, then he might as well die.

At this time, Zhao Liangdong, another die-hard fan of Zhao Kang, got up and said, "Master Qiqi, there will be something to say at the end!" ”

Being troubled by Hu Dawei like this, Zhao Kang's mood became worse, and he just waved his hand and said: "Now the people sitting here are their own people, if you have something to say, just say it." Don't have any scruples. ”

Zhao Liangdong nodded and said, "The last general thinks that it is not suitable to drive Zhang and Li to the north at this time. ”

Zhao Kang asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Zhao Liangdong said: "Although the two thieves Zhang and Li seem to be powerful, their scope of activity is limited to Henan and Huguang, Zhang Xianzhong was blocked by Huang Degong, Liu Liangzuo and other troops led by Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, in a dilemma in Anhui, and Li Zicheng was confined to the south of the Yellow River by the new governor of Hebei, Sun Chuanting, and the governor of Shanxi, Cai Maode, Cai. Moreover, with the rapid development of Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Shanxi under the governance of adults, all kinds of factories have blossomed everywhere, and there is a great demand for labor, so a large number of refugees, displaced people, and disaster victims who have no food and clothing have poured into these three provinces to find job opportunities, and even the phenomenon of entire villages moving together. This has caused a serious shortage of soldiers for the two thieves, basically one less soldier died under his command, and most of the soldiers were composed of the old, weak, sick and disabled and women, and most of the young and strong were absorbed by the factories in Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Jin provinces. Therefore, although Li Zicheng seems to have 500,000 or 600,000 troops, in fact, there are only about 100,000 people who can fight. Zhang Xianzhong is even less, and it seems that he has more than 100,000 soldiers, but in fact, there are only 30,000 or 40,000 people who can fight. It may be very difficult for these people to defeat Sun Chuanting, who is stationed in Puyang and Handan, has more than 50,000 troops, and has the danger of the Yellow River. Governor Sun himself can be good at fighting, eloquent, resourceful, a few years ago, in Shaanxi, Henan many times defeated the thief soldiers, and his generals Bai Guangen, Tang Tong, Li Fuming, Wang Tong and other generals are all experienced in a hundred battles, Li Zicheng may not be good when he encounters it. ”

And in Liaodong, although Songshan was newly defeated, Wu Sangui, the general soldier of Ningyuan, gathered more than 30,000 remnants of Guanning, rebuilt Guanning Iron Cavalry, and all stationed in Shanhaiguan. Therefore, the last general thought that if the two thieves Zhang and Li were rushed to Hebei at this time, it would be difficult to say that the two thieves would not be able to cross the Yellow River, let alone others. ”
