If at the end of the Ming Dynasty, if you can fly into the blue sky and look down on the entire land of China, you will find that in this ancient land, a new dynastic change has been generated, hundreds of thousands, millions of soldiers and civilians, representing their respective ranks. level, selfless fighting, to fight in order to decide the fortunes of the Chinese country.

From Liaodong in the east, Shandong Peninsula, south to Xuzhou Wei, Taizhou Wei, west from Shaanxi and Gansu, north to the Xuanda Great Wall, the beacon smoke is everywhere, the country will not be a country, and the people will not have a good life.
The land of the Central Plains gave birth to the Han Dynasty. People. In the birthplace of the clan, the army of displaced people has swelled to 400,000, with Wang Ziyong, Gao Yingxiang, Luo Rucai, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and other 36 battalions and 72 families, attacking the city and plundering the land, wreaking havoc everywhere, the last trace of face of the Ming Dynasty in Henan, is about to be lost.
Lu Xiangsheng, the new governor of Henan, commanded the Tianxiong army and the official army of Shanxi who retreated to Henan about 10,000 people, and the thieves from Dengfeng, Rongyang and other places fought continuously, and the official army won seven battles and seven victories, but the situation was helpless, and the situation was no longer improving.
Zuo Liangyu, deputy chief of Changping, even regarded the imperial court's military orders as children's play, and more than 2,000 elite soldiers in Changping under his command fought with thieves Liu Guoneng and Ma Jinzhong, and won and lost each other, but in fact, they killed only more than 20 enemies, and their self-losses were almost zero, but they seized a lot of gold and silver, and they only used the division of profits to beat the Chinese courtiers of the dynasty, which was cited as the background, so although Lu Xiangsheng continued to play, he also sat on the Diaoyutai and sat and watched the situation change.
Because the Ming Dynasty came to this point, Wenchen may not be able to see the reality clearly, or they may have seen it, but they refused to admit it!
That is, the building will fall, the so-called country will die there will be demons, West Li Jing, East Li Jiucheng, all are demons, if it is not for the fact that Li Zicheng has not risen now, then the three Li joined forces to destroy the rule of the Ming Dynasty, it will be completely formed.
It is no wonder that in Henan, Shandong and other places, children's nursery rhymes say that the eighteen sons should win the world! There are also great rebellious words, said that on the day of the New Year, kill pigs to celebrate the New Year, homophonic to kill Zhu Ming, where Shandong, Henan and other places, are in an uproar, and the local government only sent people to inspect everywhere, causing local people to complain.
Shanxi and Shaanxi are okay, although some local folk songs are spread, but they are not so widespread, because another revelation can better represent their thoughts, take the book and say that the land of the Qin and Jin kings has been in danger since ancient times, occupying the land of Jin, and they are not going to win the world.
Today, Li Jing, the governor of Shanxi Province, has been blessed by heaven, young and stupid, unable to speak, fifteen changes, and Jackie Chan went straight to the clouds.
These words have fueled the flames in the local area, and it has become more and more intense, and almost every day there are people who worship Li Jing's tablet in their own homes, from the governor of Shanxi and Shaanxi, to the king of Qin, the king of Jin, etc., and even those who are called the gods of astronomy and martial virtues, all of which are insufficient.
It can be seen that the local people are all grateful to Dade and cannot forget each other.
……
"This emperor's inheritance is also!"
Pointing to the strong man of the Caoyun army, Kong Youde was excited, and waved his horsewhip repeatedly to point to the country.
Xuzhou Wei is not enough to fight, he took 3,000 iron cavalry, rampant, to this day, the army has grown to more than 6,000 people, today and Cao Yun Governor commanded a standard battalion of soldiers and horses to fight, easy to break, and then Cao Yun more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, the momentum is getting stronger and stronger,
"Dudu, there is smoke in the north, and there are more than 1,000 generals to report to the army, but it is the iron cavalry of the Ming army, playing the ancestral banner, passing through Tai'an, according to this fifty miles!"
Just when he was full of ambition and pointed out the country, a horse suddenly galloped over, and he turned over and dismounted more than ten steps away, which shows how good his riding skills are.
"It's time to come, it's finally coming, it's a pity! I've made enough trouble here, there is enough food and soldiers, there is no need to fight, just go west to take refuge, and look at the general trend of the world, who can delay it. ”
Kong Youde laughed, Li Jiucheng continued cholera in Denglai territory, and hundreds of thousands of displaced people in Henan were in turmoil, and the main force that the imperial court could draw out was nothing more than thousands of Guanning troops, he couldn't afford to provoke it, so he could always afford to hide, anyway, the troops at hand were his lifeblood, as long as it was delayed for a few days, the imperial army should be withdrawn.
"Order all departments, pass the order to the west, there must be no mistake!"
Ordered such a peek-a-boo. After the cat's order, Kong Youde himself should take the horse and leave, not that he was afraid of the Guan Ning army, who was born in Dongjiang Town, who would be afraid of the Guan Ning army? But now that he has entered the dragon and entered the sea, he is allowed to soar, and his mind is gradually rising.
It made him see something meaning, and now Jiuding is falling, the heroes are rising, and the pattern of winning the Central Plains has almost been formed, he got out of the Denglai realm, and he has the intention of becoming a king on his own, Li Jiucheng is in the Liaodong army, and his prestige is pressing him, and he can't be independent for a day.
Even if the Liaodong Kingdom is established, who is the lord of the country?
Originally, it may have been this, but when he got the news from Shanxi, he suddenly became enlightened, that is, the world is so big, why stay in Denglai, just go west, it is not impossible to win the world, he has 3,000 of the most elite iron cavalry of the Ming Dynasty, and now he has to transport 4,000 soldiers and horses, and the soldiers are good and the food is sufficient.
These Cao Yun soldiers, born strong and obedient, should be the foundation of the world's elite soldiers, since ancient times the elite of the infantry army out of the two Huai, this is enough to call Wang Jianba!
"Damn it! The thieves escaped again, and this is the third time that we have pounced. ”
Where the vanguard of the Guan Ning Army was, Zu Kuan looked at the people from afar to go to the empty county seat, and gritted his teeth and said,
"It seems that the Kong thief didn't want to fight with us anymore, so he deliberately avoided us."
Wu Sangui led the troops into the customs at this moment, and wanted to make meritorious contributions, but the imperial court strictly ordered them to transfer to Nanzhili first, exterminate Kong Youde, and open up the lifeline of Caoyun.
But Kong Youde is like a loach, slippery and hands-free, but whenever he smells their scent, he will flee hundreds of miles.
Everyone is also a cavalry, and Kong Youde's strength is not weak, so the Guan Ning army did not dare to disperse and chase for a while, so they could only hang from a distance, anyway, just drive them away, so that they no longer threaten the safety of Caoyun.
"If he keeps hiding like this, it's not good for us, Shandong Governor Zhu Dadian urged three times a day, and he wanted us to take people to the east to aid Qingzhou, but Kong Youde didn't die for a day, and Cao Yun would be restless for a day, I'm just afraid that the court will blame it at that time."
Zu Kuan suppressed the anger in his heart and shook his head, at this point, the Guanning army can no longer provoke the imperial court, otherwise the whole situation will be in danger of collapse, don't look at the current Guanning army is known as the first strong army of the Ming Dynasty, but at that time it relied on the whole country to support.
If the luck is broken, the court will have to tighten its belt to live, and it will have to find ways to throttle, where is the festival? Isn't it the biggest Guan Ning army with the biggest mouth?
"If the imperial court wants to ask for guilt, it is not to ask us for guilt, those so-called general soldiers, with 17800 soldiers and horses, attacked Li Jiucheng for several months, without any merit, we at least drove out Kong Youde, and finally have merit."
Wu Sangui In this case, he is not as far-reaching as Zu Kuan, he can only play his own small abacus and plan for himself, and he can't see the overall impact on the Guanning army, after all, he is not the Liaodong general soldier who can decide the fate of the Ming Dynasty with 40,000 main forces in his hands ten years later!
But now, he is basically the deputy general who decided the fate of the Ming Dynasty!
According to the most optimistic estimates, if he can defeat Kong Youde's main force in one battle, then the main force of the Guanning Army that has been freed up will be able to converge with the main force of the Guanmen Iron Cavalry, and defeat Li Jiucheng who is entrenched in the confrontation between Denglai and the Ming army in one fell swoop.
However, they didn't have this life, Kong Youde didn't fight them at all, and went west into the border between Nanzhili and Huguang.
"Forget it, if we chase it any longer, we won't be able to bear it, so it's better to stay here to rest first, see the situation, and wait for the order from the imperial court."
This time, because of the example of Kong Youde in front, the local military and civilian officials did not dare to continue to stimulate these Guanning troops who were also from the Liaodong department, if they rebelled again, the imperial court would have to skin them, so in terms of logistics supplements such as grain and grass, it was quite generous, and the Guanning army was paid nearly four layers of military salaries in the country, and there was still no shortage of money and food, at least the troops were still raised.
But the twelve general military officers of the Ming Dynasty who were entrenched in Qingzhou were uncomfortable, first, the transportation was cut off, and the grain from the southern Zhili and Zhejiang could not be helped, even if the central court could still give some, but it was tantamount to a cup of salary, and it was useless.
The road from Huguang to the north was also cut off by 400,000 rogues, and this road was even more dangerous, because the imperial court had 10,000 or 20,000 officers and troops in Henan, and it was almost impossible to maintain self-protection.
Tens of thousands of troops entrenched in Shandong, all relying on local support, it is obviously impossible, not to mention the rebellion in Denglai territory, and lost a granary, anyway, Zhu Dadian has no choice, as the commander of the army, he only does two things every day, one is to complain to the imperial court, asking for a quick replenishment of money and grain, and the other is to urgently complain to the imperial court and ask for supplementary reinforcements.
However, they seem to have fallen into a strange circle, that is, the more soldiers and horses they support, the greater the gap in grain and grass, and the heavier the burden on the local soldiers and civilians in Shandong, the heavier the burden, of course, they have to flee or not pay, and such a vicious circle is formed.
That is, the guest army sent by the imperial court to Shandong to quell the turmoil, can not get enough food and grass in Shandong, don't look down on these big soldiers, it is the same everywhere, since the imperial court does not give it, then grab it in the place, which will cause more and more conflicts between the guest army and the main army, Zhu Dadian spent more than half of his time to coordinate the relationship between the various armies.
In addition, Li Jiucheng provoked battles from time to time, and things became even more chaotic, and he even had the idea of resigning and going into hiding, but the situation in Shandong was completely chaotic, and he had no better way.
The resumption of the transport has alleviated the situation to a certain extent, but who knows how long this situation will last? At least that Saint Son of Heaven in the Shuntian Mansion can't tolerate the six thousand Guan Ning Army having nothing to do! (To be continued.) )
