"The last general will not spare him if he is surnamed Zhao. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Anhui General Shi Yigong stood up and said indignantly.

Shandong guerrilla Fang Guoliang stood up and said: "An unsuccessful militia group dares to rebel and stand on its own, Dashuai, you let me lead troops to destroy him." "Zhou Yonggui, the general soldier of Hubei, and Su Sangui, the capital of Sichuan, also asked for battle.

"What is the opinion of the gentleman?" Xiong Wencan asked to his staff member Liu Wencai.

Liu Wencai thought for a while, bowed to Xiong Wencan, and then said, this Zhao Guohua, we have all seen it, and I don't know why he rebelled, but since he rebelled, he must be exterminated. ”

The generals said: "It's not that Xiong Wencan is too greedy for money, a military stick extorts 10,000 taels of silver from others, and 70 military sticks want 700,000 taels of silver. ”

Looking at the expressions of the generals, and then at Xiong Wencan, Liu Wencai then said: "Among the three county towns occupied by Zhao Guohua, Jinzhai County is connected to Huoshan County in the east, Yingshan County and Luotian County in the south, Macheng and Mall in the west, and Gushi County, Huoqiu County, and Yeji in the north. Macheng is bordered by Jinzhai County in the east, Guangshan County and Xinxian County in the west, and Huangchuan County and Gushi County in the north. In view of this, I propose to send heavy troops to the west and north of the three counties of Jinmashang to block Zhao Guohua's attack in other directions, and force him to develop towards Huoshan County and Yingshan County, so that he will clash with Lao Huihui and Geliyan He Yilong, Zuojin Wang He Jin, and others who are entrenched in Huoshan County and Yingshan County, so that we can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. ”

Listening to Liu Wencai's strategy, Zhou Yonggui, the general soldier of Hubei, clapped his hands and smiled: "Mr. Liu is so strategic, this is a trick to drive away the wolf, no matter what the final result of the two of them is, this is what we are happy to see, Gao!" It's really ......."

"That's right! Mr. Zhou is right, let them pinch each other, that's what I mean. Liu Wencai said with a smile.

Shandong guerrilla Fang Guoliang and Anhui general Shi Yigong and other generals bowed down to Xiong Wencan and said: "We are willing to listen to the commander's dispatch and work together to eliminate the rogue." ”

"Good! Good! Good! …… With the ingenuity of the gentleman and the courage of the generals, I am full of confidence in the extermination of the Liukou......" Xiong Wencan said, and he laughed.

After laughing, his face turned grim, he took out an arrow, and said loudly: "Zhou Yonggui, the general soldier of Hubei, you will lead 30,000 troops to Gushi County, Huoqiu County, and Yeji. ”

"Yes!" Zhou Yonggui clenched his fists and received the order.

"Anhui General Shi Yigong, with you leading 20,000 troops into Guangshan County and Xinxian County. Shandong guerrilla Fang Guoliang, with you to lead 10,000 troops into Huangchuan County. ”

"Yes! Yes, sir! Shi Yigong and Fang Guoliang came out at the same time to receive the order.

"Chen Dahai, the capital of Zhejiang, and Fan Debao, the commander of Hunan......" Xiong Wencan is still continuing to mobilize troops......

In Macheng County, Zhao Guohua, Cheng Chong, Zhang Shun, Niu Huan, Lu Qing, Liu Youtian and other cadres were watching the newly recruited 6,000 new team members do queue training, watching them "turn left" in the old players...... The funny appearance of hitting the face under the password of turning right to ......", everyone couldn't help but laugh "haha", Cheng Chong scolded with a smile: "It's so stupid, it's been almost half a month, and I can't tell the left and right, it's just a bunch of pig brains." ”

After occupying the three county towns, the Loyal Brigade felt the lack of soldiers and could not fully trust the original officers and soldiers, so they began to recruit new members.

"Military pay of one tael and five a month, meat once a month, a settling-in allowance of ten taels of silver per person, four sets of clothes in spring, summer, autumn and winter every year, cotton clothes and cotton pants in winter, a pension of one hundred taels of silver for the death of a war, and a pension of fifty taels for the disabled." These conditions were written on the recruitment notices and posted at the gates of the three county towns, and the young people who saw them were enthusiastic and their hearts were beating, and the middle-aged and elderly people sighed at a moment's notice, so that in the city and the countryside, all the children of poor families who had nothing to do and were poor families flocked to various recruitment points, and after some physical and intellectual assessments, they successfully recruited 6,000 new soldiers.

"Cheng Chong, you are qualified to laugh at others now, don't you want to think about your original bear appearance, do you want me to say it too, so that everyone can have fun?" Zhao Guohua said with a smile.

"Don't! Other! Other! Captain, you bypassed me, now I'm a squadron leader, and I'm a big guy, don't mention the past, I don't laugh at them. Cheng Chong hurriedly smiled and begged for mercy.

"Hahahaha......" everyone couldn't help but laugh.

After laughing, Zhao Guohua said solemnly: "Now our army has occupied Jinzhai County, Shangcheng County and Macheng County, and drove away the magistrates of the three places, and Xiong Wencan has torn his face, the government will not give up, they will make a move sooner or later, in order to give us the ability to fight back, it is imperative to train this batch of recruits as soon as possible, Cheng Chong, you have trained the team before, from today onwards, you will be responsible for training recruits, I hope that in another month, you will be able to see a group of qualified soldiers." ”

"Captain, don't worry, I won't let you down." Cheng Chong bowed and said.

In Ji'an Mansion, Jiangxi, Meng Liangchen, the prefect of Ji'an, and Chen Sheng, the prefect of Ji'an, were listening to a soldier named Ge Jin, who was sent back from Wuchang Mansion by Lu Dacheng of Ji'an Qianhu, report on the rebellion and self-reliance of the Loyal and Brave Corps.

"Xiong Wencan, the governor of the five provinces, ordered Zhao Guohua to fight against the Liukou, Zhao Guohua did not let the children of his hometown go to the battlefield, and disobeyed the order, which annoyed Xiong Wencan, who was originally going to fight a hundred military sticks, but when he beat thirty sticks, it was Xiong Wencan's staff surnamed Liu who interceded to change to a silver top, 10,000 taels of silver against a military stick, and he couldn't take out so many silver taels, so Zhao Guohua drove the official to stand on his own after seizing Macheng." Gzin recounted.

After being silent for a while, Meng Liangchen, the prefect of Ji'an, said indignantly: "I have long heard that Xiong Wencan is greedy for money and goods, and I don't want him to be burdened with heavy responsibilities now, and he still has a problem, and he has forced the loyal team to rebel, hmph, I want to impeach him......"

"This Zhao Guohua is too, you have good intentions to protect your hometown, but you can't openly disobey orders. Not to mention being able to drive officials to stand on their own, not calm! Irrational! It's been in vain for the officer's hard work. Chen Sheng said with hatred that iron is not made of steel.

Originally, he was still optimistic about this Zhao Guohua, hoping that Zhao Guohua would be a hit in the help of the suppression and make a name for himself in the court, so that he would have the merit of knowing people, and maybe he could raise his official position to a higher level. But now that Zhao Guohua has rebelled, Chen Sheng's good hopes have come to naught, and he also has a little hatred for Zhao Guohua in his heart.

Xiong Wencan forced Zhao Guohua to rebel, but Meng Liangchen, the prefect of Ji'an, who initiated the city entrance fee and security fee initiated by Zhao Guohua, still planned to continue to collect it, but it was just a reduction for the rich and powerful. After sending Chen Sheng away, Meng Liangchen shouted: "Come here, call the head catcher Li Dabiao, the official has something to tell him." ”

"Yes!" An entourage went out to spread the word that Li Dabiao had gone.

The fact that the loyal team was forced to rebel by Xiong Wencan was soon known by Yang Degui. After dinner that day, he and the housekeeper Yang Fu talked about it in the study, and laughed out loud when it came to the proudness.

In the Yali of Yongxin County, after reading the letter brought by Meng Liangchen, the prefect of Ji'an, Song Zhong ordered the person with a serious face to call the master Niu Decao and the head catcher Wang Tiehan, and handed the letter to them.

"Huh? Zhao Guohua rebelled......" Master Niu Decao read the letter and said in disbelief.

"What? Mr. Zhao rebelled? For...... Why? The headcatcher Wang Tiehan stammered and asked, looking surprised.

Sighing, he glanced at Wang Tiehan, the head catcher, and Song Zhong, the county magistrate, said: "Xiong Wencan, the governor of the five provinces, extorted 700,000 taels of silver from Mr. Zhao, and he had to pay it within a month of time, there was no way, he rebelled, and this is roughly the case, the specific story, after that, you ask Master Niu." ”

"Dong Weng, what about Mingfeng Village and his chemical workshop?" Master Niu Decao asked.

After thinking carefully for a while, Song Zhong said: "Later, you and Wang Zhutou will go to the leader of Mr. Zhao's left-behind team and the person in charge of the chemical workshop with the letter from Governor Meng, tell them about this, and ask for their opinions." ”

After discussing some countermeasures, the two of them left Song Zhixian and left the county office to go to Mingfeng Village.

Master Niu Decao and Wang Zhutou came to Mingfeng Village and told Sun Laohan, the manager of Zhao Guohua's rebellion, and Ma Bao, the captain of the left-behind team of the Joint Defense Brigade, and Sun Fu, the deputy captain of the joint defense team, to avoid being implicated, and persuaded them to go out to hide for a while and then come back.

"Nope! Captain Zhao is our benefactor, and as long as he is alive, we will not leave. We have to keep the foundation of the chemical workshop for him! Ma Bao, the captain of the left-behind team, and Sun Fu, the vice captain of the team, said together.

Seeing that these people could not be persuaded to leave, Master Niu Decao and Wang Zhutou had to sigh and shake their heads and leave.

Ma Bao and Sun Fu sent people to inform Wang Hu, the big leader of Qinglong Village in Jinggang Mountain, Chen Dashan, the second leader, and Liu Fangfei, the fifth leader, of the news. The big leader Wang Hu and the second leader Chen Dashan heard the news and were a little bit bossless, or the fifth leader Liu Fangfei had an idea, she said: "I think Zhao Guohua is not a reckless person, the reason why he rebelled may be for another reason, besides, the second leader and the fourth leader are both shrewd and will not follow the blind intrude, before there is no clear news, the two elder brothers, please don't panic, wait with peace of mind." ”

After listening to Liu Fangfei's words, the two of them also temporarily put their hearts at ease.

In the big village of Huoshan, the old Hui Hui Hui Ma Shouying, the leader of the fifth battalion of the left Ge Li Yan He Yilong, the king of Zuo Jin He Jin, the king of the world Liu Xiyao, the king of the world Lin Yangcheng and other important generals under their accounts are there. Everyone was confused by Zhao Guohua, who suddenly became an official and self-reliant to attack the city and seize the land, according to reason, this person assisted the official army to encircle and suppress the peasant army, but how did it suddenly become a rebellion, not only He Yilong, He Jin and others couldn't see the fame, but even the old Hui couldn't figure out the reason.

Recently, Zhao Guohua sent troops to capture Jinzhai County, Macheng County and Shangcheng County one after another, alarming the five leaders of the fifth battalion of the Revolution, everyone does not know whether he will attack from Jinzhai County to other places in the next step, so the old Hui Ma Shouying convened everyone to a meeting to discuss countermeasures.

"Big brother, what kind of birdman is this Zhao Guohua?" Lin Chengcheng, the king of the world, spoke first.
