Chapter 230: The Bazhou Uprising (2)

This attack on Boye, I am afraid that the rebel army has already formulated a plan, and they are clear about where the garrison of Boye City is weak.

Moreover, Qi Yanming fought with great purpose and discipline, and this battle was not so much an attack on Boye, but rather a little confidence to the people who were newly incorporated into the army.

Let them know that the Ming court army is so vulnerable. After entering Boye City, the rebels did not rob the common people at all, and the first thing they did was to attack and enter the county government, and then looted all the local wealthy gentry, and looted countless silver and rice grains.

After the capture of Boye, they used it as a base and once again absorbed a large number of peasants, and the number of rebels gradually increased from four or five thousand to seven or eight thousand.

After the capture of Boye, Qi Yanming's army rested here, and the army had been resting for almost four or five days.

Zhu Houzhao asked Chen Yu very strangely: "Why don't these people continue to attack?" Instead, you want to rest here? ”

"I'm waiting for someone, if my guess is right, I may be waiting for Liu Liu and Liu Qi." Chen Yu said.

"The small rebel army actually attacked the county town near Gyeonggi so easily, how weak is the Ming army? What does the Cabinet do? Zhu Houzhao suddenly became angry, "In a county, there are as many as several million taels of silver in private storage, to what extent!" ”

Chen Yuxin said, you are qualified to say this, but you don't, you have never cared about political affairs, the country has been ruined by Liu Jin, and now you are here to start talking about cool things.

"Chen Yu, what are your plans next?" Zhu Houzhao saw that Chen Yu didn't speak, so he took the initiative to ask.

"The root cause is almost figured out, and I think we can find a way to fix it, and there's no need to stay here anymore." Chen Yu said.

After he finished speaking, Jiang Bin looked stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Chen Yu to leave so soon, could the plan in his heart be so abruptly realized? I knew that it would be carried out when I attacked Hirono.

Just when Jiang Bin was sorry, Qi Yanming suddenly walked towards this side with a group of people, and several people immediately became nervous.

Isn't Qi Yanming tired of seeing something? These people's uprising was originally doing the act of killing heads, even if there were a few weak people in it, but the leaders were ruthless, if the identity was really known, don't say that he, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, it is estimated that Zhu Houzhao's life will not be guaranteed.

At this time, Chen Yu paid attention to it, there were two people next to Qi Yanming, these two people were on his left, obviously one level higher than him, and he didn't need to guess to know that these two people must be the brothers of the Liu family.

"Brothers, let me introduce to you, this is the leader of the rebel army, the Liu family brothers!" Qi Yanming introduced loudly.

The Liu family brother is a very kind person, and it can be seen from that smile alone that he has dark skin all over his body, and he should be a typical northern farmer who has been exposed to the sun for a long time.

This body looks more close to the people, and the two of them waved their hands with a big grin: "They are all their own brothers, what are you polite?" The brothers can eat enough, and I am happier than anything else. ”

I don't know if the two brothers' city is too deep, or if it is like this, in short, these few words suddenly shortened the distance between them and these peasants a lot.

"Do you have any fellow Hirono?" Liu Liu asked.

As soon as he finished speaking, many people raised their hands one after another, and Liu Liu nodded: "How is it, are you still used to it here?" ”

When Liu Liu and Liu Qi said these words, Chen Yu knew that they were destined to be unable to achieve anything big, not that they lacked ability, but mainly because of their ideological limitations and strategic vision.

To be precise, they did not make a series of preparations at all, and the reason why the peasant uprising could not succeed was because of a lack of strategic thinking.

Even if they break through Longyou, Shandong, Henan and even Jiangnan now? They never had a system, and the people's minds were very simple, the reason why they followed the rebel army was just to have enough to eat.

Since Chen Yu introduced a whip and apportionment into the mu, the problem of land annexation has been eliminated to a great extent, coupled with the transparency of taxation and the examination law to restrict bureaucrats in various places, the life of the people is much better than in the early years of Zhengde.

What he has never been able to understand, these new reforms have not yet been promoted nationwide, but these are all matters of time, no matter how the Liu brothers toss, the final outcome Chen Yu has already seen through.

However, he didn't want to take Zhu Houzhao back to Beijing now, he just wanted Zhu Hou to take a look at what the empire had become!

In fact, Daming is not as good as the cabinet and other bureaucrats describe, like these people who can't eat enough, this has to be taken care of by Zhu Hou, hoping that he can make some changes.

With the maturity of Zhu Houzhao's thoughts and hearts, Chen Yu did not dare to persuade directly about many things, he was not like those imperial historians and ministers of the Ming Dynasty, he knew Zhu Houzhao's temperament, the more you fight him, the more energetic he will be!

He can only use some special methods to see if he can guide Zhu Houzhao within his ability, after all, Daming has always been his Zhu family.

There is another point, Chen Yu is also afraid, if it is really like Yang Tinghe and others who nag in Zhu Houzhao's ear too much, it will make them estranged.

The human heart is actually the most difficult thing to grasp, and Chen Yu is now figuring out this thing every day.

Boye's supplies are very rich, and the people rarely eat a good meal, saying that it is good rice, but in fact, it is a piece or two of meat added to the rice bran.

Maybe you think, after Bono captures it, what about the millions of taels of silver?

These were naturally accepted by the rebel army, because they needed to reorganize more troops, and they needed to form and win over the army, so after the actual attack on the next city, what was given to the people was only one or two pieces of meat.

It's not much, but it can be seen from the smiling faces of the people that it's enough.

"Storming a city with all its might, and they're just for a piece or two of meat?" Zhu Houzhao couldn't understand it.

"It wasn't their intention to attack the city, they meant it was just for a piece or two of meat." Xu Can said, "In fact, the requirements of the people of the Ming Dynasty are very simple, if they are not forced to do so, they will not wave their flags to rebel, if there is such a day, I hope the emperor will let these people go." ”

Zhu Houzhao knew what Chen Yu meant, he thought seriously for a while, then nodded heavily, looked at these rebels again, and said, "Go back, I know why they rebelled." ”

They did not continue to follow the rebels south, but secretly broke away from the crowd and headed towards Gyeonggi.

Chen Yu found a carriage.

Zhu Houzhao insisted on riding a horse, but Chen Yu had many eyes and ears in Beijing, and most of the bureaucrats and officials were in the streets, so if they were found out that something was wrong, Zhu Houzhao still got into the sedan chair with peace of mind.

This little ancestor, there is really no way to deal with him.

The suppression of Liu Liu and Liu Qi was not an overnight thing, Chen Yu just came to understand the situation, although he took over the military department, but the rebel army is getting stronger and stronger, and there is no way to transfer this gang of waste in Gyeonggi.

If you are really unfortunate enough to run into the regular army of the Liu family's rebel army, I am afraid that the ending will be the next one.

Chen Yu didn't dare to lose the face of the imperial court, and he couldn't afford to lose it.

Along the way, Chen Yu was pondering, who should be sent, which army should be transferred to circulate and attack the rebel army, if it wins, it is fine, but if it is defeated? Now a large number of people in the imperial court are staring at Chen Yu, although Liu Jin's matter has come to an end, but Seven Tigers, Jiang Bin, Qian Ning, Yang Tinghe, and Li Dongyang are not good.

Especially Yang Tinghe, since he was transferred back from Nanzhili, he was promoted by Li Dongyang to the rank of Minister's Shangshu, Wuyingdian University Scholar, and Young Master and Prince Taifu on the grounds of meritorious governance.

Although Chen Yu's relationship with the cabinet is not bad now, he can't let the cabinet develop like this, because he still has many ambitions that have not been realized, and Yang Tinghe and himself are definitely not all the way.

"Chen Yu, you come up." Just as Chen Yu was pondering on his horse, the side car curtain on the carriage was lifted.

"Huh? The emperor can't. Chen Yu said in fear.

Zhu Houzhao's move made Qian Ning and Jiang Bin indescribably jealous, and at the same time, they were also very afraid in their hearts, especially Qian Ning.

Since Jiang Bin appeared, Qian Ning found that his status was gradually declining, which made him panic day and night, especially this trip, which made him feel heartily cold, the reason why he can still hang the position of Jinyi Guard Commander now is all dependent on Zhu Houzhao, over the years, he also knows that it is not easy for the Ming Dynasty to sit firmly!

And what really scared him was Chen Yu, his festival with Chen Yu could not be explained clearly in a few words, but in any case, the relationship between him and Chen Yu was definitely not very good, Chen Yu was afraid that he had not yet taken the effort to deal with himself!

You'll have to find a way to secure your position!

When Qian Ning secretly swore to himself, Chen Yu had already gotten into Zhu Houzhao's sedan chair.

"I felt a lot when I came out this time, but I didn't expect that the officers and soldiers near Gyeonggi had become like this, thanks to the old horsemen in the cabinet and the military of the Ming Dynasty in the Cabinet and Haiti! These old horsemen are really not idle! Zhu Houzhao's face is not very good, it seems that this stimulation is a bit big for him.

Don't look at this kid who is idle all day long, he also has an ideal in his heart, and this ideal is inseparable from the military, and now he sees the Ming army weak like this, and the dream in his heart seems to be awakened.

"The land of the capital division has been peaceful for a long time, and it is normal for the army to be weak, and the barrier to protect the Ming Dynasty is on the nine sides, and the military literacy army on the nine sides is worthy of the emperor's trust."

"Well, isn't there a shortage of Hubu Shangshu, let's transfer Yang Yiqing back."

Chen Yu's words were also guiding Zhu Houzhao, and when Zhu Houzhao said this, his heart was about to jump out!

I'm finally not so lonely anymore!.
