Chapter 210: Dominoes
The soldiers of Huaiyin County are the private soldiers of the Gao A family, although they are much stronger than the minions in the Inner History Mansion, but they are far from being able to compare with the wolf-like killing gods on the battlefield led by Shang Buqi, the guardless Huaiyin County guards, Shang Buqi only took a quarter of an hour to subdue them all, and for those who dared to resist, Shang Buqi decisively executed the order of happy killing.
The chaos in the city lasted less than half an hour before it fell silent, and although many houses were destroyed by the rioters, and many of them died, on the whole the result was acceptable to the willingness.
Under the instruction of Xing, Shang Buqi and Wu Sangui completely cleaned the entire Huaiyin County City, and happily and decisively lit the butcher's knife for those noble and wealthy businessmen who were close to the Gao family and harmed the people, and resolutely implemented the policy of robbing the light.
A riot suddenly completely exposed the potential shortcomings of the beggar gang disciples, when it comes to the surname of the organization and the surname of discipline, they are really too bad to be able to trick up, and the beggar gang that looks like a huge momentum can be summed up in only four words, that is, "rabble",
When the beggar gang was first established, Gao Xing emphasized that Zhang Shunzhi's five brothers must pay attention to the state of mind and select the best, however, although Zhang Shunzhi has done his best, he is only a child after all, and he has not much experience at all.
Happy did not blame Zhang Shunzhi, but took this opportunity to carry out a big purge of the beggar gang, and resolutely expelled the people who were not right-minded and ate and waited for death, and Gao Xing also worked with Zhang Shunzhi and Wu Sangui to carefully formulate and improve the gang rules of the beggar gang, and made certain adjustments to the structure and system of the beggar gang.
The new beggar gang has a gang leader from top to bottom, two deputy gang leaders, with Xuyi City as the general rudder foundation, and below is each rudder, the rudder name is named after the place name, now the beggar gang has gone through more than half a year of development, although the children have been more than 10,000, but the area covered is only Jianghuai, Yecheng and Yingzhou three places, so there are only Yecheng and Yingzhou two rudders,
Happy in the beggar gang also set up divided into Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Xuanwu four halls, Qinglong Hall is mainly responsible for supervising and inspecting the behavior of the beggar gang disciples; The White Tiger Hall is responsible for enforcing the criminal law and punishing the children who make mistakes; Suzaku Hall is responsible for managing the development of the beggar gang and other affairs, as for the Xuanwu Hall, the members must be loyal to the gang, and the martial arts are strong, they are mainly responsible for protecting the safety of the beggar gang, with the mission of attacking the city and plundering the land, and led by the gang leader.
Although they perform their own duties, they are assisting each other to form a rudder, so that the beggar gang is no longer scattered as before, and the quality of the members is uneven, and it lacks combat effectiveness.
After the formation of the new beggar gang, Xing Xing appointed Zhang Shunzhi as the gang leader, commanded the Xuanwu Hall, sat in Huaizhou, the head of the Qinglong Hall was served by Zhao Gou, the head of the White Tiger Hall was served by Li Feng, and the Suzaku Hall was played by Sun Li.
When he was happy to eliminate all the discordant voices in Huaiyin County, three full days had passed, Gao Changgong, as the assassin of Huaizhou, was naturally responsible for Huaiyin County, and he immediately sent heavy troops to guard Huaiyin County, and at the same time recorded the cause of the incident in detail and presented it to Yecheng.
When the news of the destruction of the Gao family in Huaiyin County due to a civilian riot reached Gao Wei, he had already led hundreds of thousands of troops across the Yellow River and entered Sizhou.
The people of the Northern Qi Dynasty were really fed up with the oppression of Gao Wei and the powerful people in the DPRK, Gao Sihao issued an edict and served as the standard-bearer, and the northern border suddenly gathered to respond, and the mighty righteous army went all the way south with unparalleled momentum, and came to the city of Jinyang in Bingzhou like a broken bamboo.
Gao Wei hurried all the way, but it was beyond the reach of the whip, and the guards of the nearby states and counties did not get Gao Wei's will and military charms, some of them did not dare to act rashly, for fear of being considered a chaotic minister and thief, and some of them had an ambiguous attitude, observing words and emotions according to the soldiers, and wanted to take the opportunity to seek the greatest benefits.
Gao Sihao's 300,000 army besieged the city and stormed Jinyang day and night, but Zhao Hai, the military guard who was responsible for guarding Jinyang, was assassinated by bandits more than ten days ago, and was heavily injured.
Many people speculated that Zhao Hai's injury was due to Gao Sihao's long-term planning, but they didn't know that the assassin who assassinated Zhao Hai was happy.
Jinyang is the gateway to the north of Yecheng, and it is Gao Wei's favorite happy place outside Yecheng, how can Gao Wei allow him to fall, when Gao Wei's class returned to the court, he issued a holy decree, and constantly sent troops to help Jinyang,
Finally, when Gao Wei arrived in Yecheng, Jinyang had not yet fallen into Gao Sihao's attack, which made Gao Wei greatly relieved, but the situation in Jinyang was still not optimistic, under Gao Sihao's crazy attack, the city walls of Jinyang City had already been broken, and the weapons and baggage in the city were even more scarce, but if it weren't for Zhao Hai decisively opening the treasury in the city and using money to stimulate the morale of the army and civilians, Jinyang was afraid that he would not be able to resist Gao Sihao's attack at all.
However, as soon as Gao Wei entered the palace, his butt was not on the comfortable dragon chair, and he received a report from the guards outside the door: Han Changluan, the king of Changli, had a major military situation.
"Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good." Han Changluan got Gao Wei's permission, and when he entered the main hall, he didn't care about greeting Gao Wei and shouted,
"What's the matter, could it be that Jinyang City is broken." Gao Wei suddenly became nervous, stood up from the dragon chair suddenly, looked at Han Changluan with burning eyes, and asked in a deep voice,
"No, Jinyang City is still there." Han Changluan calmed down his rapid and disordered breathing, and then said, "Your Majesty, the south is the opposite. ”
"What, how it happened, you and I will tell you carefully." Gao Wei's face changed suddenly, and his brows suddenly wrinkled deeply,
On March 10, the rebellion in Huaiyin County had just been quelled, but there was a sudden rebellion in Western Chu Prefecture (adjacent to Huaizhou, on the west side of Huaizhou), and the state assassin and the rich and unkind magnates in the city were all slaughtered by the people who rioted in the city.
Although the rebellion in Western Chu Prefecture was quickly suppressed by Gao Changgong and did not cause much loss to Northern Qi, this incident was like dominoes, which immediately caused a chain reaction, and like a spark, it ignited the dissatisfaction of the people of Northern Qi against the people in power, and on the second day of the rebellion in Western Chu Prefecture, the seven states of Renzhou, Eastern Chuzhou, Tongzhou, Eastern Xuzhou, Xuzhou, and Haizhou in the north of Western Chu Prefecture rioted almost at the same time.
The enraged people not only brutally killed the officials appointed by the imperial court, but they also rose up and gathered into a force of more than 200,000 people, some of whom marched to the north and some to the south, vowing to eradicate Huaizhou and take refuge in the Chen State from the oppression of the Northern Qi.
In just fifteen days, Xuzhou in the north, Qingzhou in the south, Qingzhou, Jiaozhou, and Guangzhou also fell one after another, and Zu Ting, the blind prime minister who had been in power and the opposition, was also killed by the mob.
In the face of such a crisis situation, Gao Changgong dispatched troops on the one hand, closely and vigilantly watched the movements of the rebels, and on the other hand, he asked Yecheng for support, and a letter of help and war reports were transmitted to Yecheng like snowflakes.
Gao Si in the north is so aggressive, the rebels in the south are also powerful, Gao Changgong is difficult to support alone, and the entire Northern Qi suddenly fell into a stormy situation.
What made Gao Wei even more restless was that Chen General Wu Mingche once again led 100,000 elite soldiers from Jiankang and went straight to Huaizhou, Huaizhou suffered from the enemy, even if Gao Changgong had three heads and six arms, I am afraid that he could not stop the attack of Chen's army, once Chen's army took more than a dozen states in the Qilu belt into his arms, then Chen's army's troops will point directly at the Yellow River, and Yecheng will be extremely dangerous.
In the face of the devastated country, Gao Wei was a little at a loss, and while he was anxious, he also regretted his decision.
Now, Cui Jishu, Zhang Diao and other talented humerus ministers have long been out of service, and Sikong Zhao Yanshen was imprisoned in Chang'an City in the Northern Zhou Dynasty because of happiness, and the military generals who can fight in all directions and take charge alone, Hu Luguang has died, Gao Sihao has become a thief, Dugu Yongye needs to guard Luozhou to guard against the Zhou army, Fu Fu is in charge of Sizhou, an important place in Gyeonggi, and Han Changluan's advice is acceptable, but it is not easy for them to lead the troops out of the town.
On March 28, 574 A.D., in the face of the fierce Chen * army, Gao Wei had no choice but to issue an edict to the world: Gao Changgong was recalled to the family tree, he was crowned the king of Jiaodong, Kaifu Yi and the three divisions, and appointed Guang, Jiao, Huai Erzhou Assassin History, Governor Renzhou, East Chu Prefecture, Tongzhou, East Xuzhou, Xuzhou, Haizhou, North Xuzhou, South Qingzhou, Qingzhou, Jiaozhou, Guangzhou, Huaizhou twelve states of the military, and allowed Gao Changgong to recruit heroes on the spot, block the attack of Chen's * army, suppress the rebels, and defend Kyoto,
In just one and a half months, the sudden changes in the Northern Qi Dynasty made the whole world a little dazzled, caught off guard, saw Chen * army advancing wantonly, Yu Wenyong was not to be left behind, he left Chang'an on April 1 to go to Xiangyang to inspect, and actively urged the border defense to reorganize the armament and prepare for the Eastern Expedition.
At the time when the world was changing, he was happy but very calm, at this time he was drinking with Shang Buqi and Wu Sangui in Qingzhou City, and there was no expression of concern for the safety of Huaizhou on his face.
