Chapter 194: Wuchang Uprising 4

86_86695 From a grassroots official in the system, he instantly became the head of a rebellion. Under normal circumstances, such a drastic identity change requires a lot of psychological construction to be able to adapt.

The hierarchical feudal society of the Ming Dynasty is not something that can be unscrupulous in modern China, where the Internet is developed and speech is extremely free, on the one hand, in front of the members of the ruling party, on the other hand, you can scold the leader of the ruling party, and even directly say something ******.

He Zuxian actually had a chaotic state in his head for quite a long time.

How else to say that the times make heroes. If the people who led the rebellion of the Wuchang Left Guard soldiers were those single soldiers who were more active but had little practical ability. Such a riot may be suppressed in an instant by the hundreds of heavily armed family members of General Gu Dabing.

However, after all, He Zuxian has participated in several military practices to suppress bandits. When he was a child, he not only learned a lot of martial arts from his father, but also listened to his uncle, who was admitted to Xiucai with his father's sponsorship, and told him a lot of military books and war strategies. Although He Zuxian himself only has some superficial military common sense. However, he certainly won't be like the soldiers who are hungry and flat, so desperately trying to get their bellies rounded and then killed.

In the face of this sudden situation, He Zuxian's adaptation to reality is not much slower than the reaction of those well-known Vs who are the best at seeing the wind and steering the rudder in modern society.

He Zuxian was recommended by everyone to go to the high platform that was originally going to kill a few soldiers who were robbing food and make an example to everyone, and explained the following things to everyone:

First, He Zuxian believes that since everyone has pushed him to this leading position, then all actions of everyone must be under his command. Otherwise, he would not have accepted it.

No one disputes this.

Second, He Zuxian demanded that the more than 2,300 soldiers present not be mindless in their work. Therefore, everyone must follow the rules of the guard, and form a small flag team of ten people. Whether it is recommended by everyone or self-nomination, the leader of each small flag team must be selected immediately.

There is no objection to this. After all, the guard system has been abolished. But everyone still has a certain military edification. Everyone is familiar with and agrees with this militarized way of organizing.

Third, Ho Zuxian demanded that all soldiers must have weapons in their hands. Whether it's a spear or a broadsword, a hoe or a pole, everyone has to go home and get their weapons.

Everyone agrees on this. No one is a fool. Everyone knows, even if it's just to grab some food. If you don't have a weapon in your hand, you can't grab it. And in the environment of the health center, although it is serious, there are no sharp and good weapons in everyone's hands. However, things like spears and spears are still available in every guard's home.

Third, Ho Zuxian formulated such a sequence of goals, and he asked everyone to agree.

The order of goals set by He Zuxian is that the first target is the Yamen of the General Army. He Zuxian was very soberly aware that in the entire Wuchang Mansion, and even in the entire Huguang area (he didn't know the storage of the Fuxing Army), the only people who could threaten their two thousand guards were the five or six hundred soldiers of Gu Da's general soldiers. Therefore, he felt that he had to defeat the chief soldier who was a direct threat to everyone before he could take the next step.

Of course, not everyone agrees on this. Gu Dajun's family, that is a strong soldier who dances with guns and sticks and eats all day long. Although everyone has made up their minds to rebel and make trouble. However, everyone still has deep scruples about the chief soldier.

He Zuxian showed his vision at this time. He told everyone very clearly. If everyone wants to grab food and get food, they must destroy the hundreds of families of the chief soldier. Otherwise, everyone will really knock down places like grain depots and grain stores, and the grain will not enter everyone's stomachs. Because the grain will become the victory of the general soldiers.

After all, everyone is a soldier. Everyone still has a clear understanding of what He Zuxian said. Therefore, although everyone's fear of the chief soldier has not been eliminated. However, under the threat of starvation and death, everyone made up their minds to attack and wipe out the general army.

The second goal set by He Zuxian for everyone is the Huguang Governor Yamen. He Zuxian did not have such a clever strategic vision of beheading the enemy's command system and paralyzing the enemy's command system. He chose his targets based on the threat to the insurgents. If the chief soldier is wiped out by everyone. In the entire Wuchang City, only those soldiers guarding the governor in the governor's yamen remained, and there was a relatively small threat to everyone.

The third target set by He Zuxian is the Wuchang Mansion. The principle is the same, and everyone can agree with it.

He Zuxian's fourth target was the treasury of the chief soldier yamen and the governor's yamen, as well as the grain store in Wuchang City. Although this is the fourth goal, it is actually the first goal for the soldiers who are determined to make trouble.

After He Zuxian had full communication with everyone, he began to act in accordance with the steps. Everyone first formed a group of ten people to form hundreds of small flag teams. After identifying the leaders of these small flag teams, He Zuxian asked everyone to go home and arm themselves with weapons.

In fact, none of the successful and effective rebellions were as written in the history books, but there were a few strange leaders who made an impassioned speech to everyone on a special occasion and opportunity, and then everyone was hot-headed to expose it.

The successful rebellion was actually made by He Zuxian, who had a simple and crude plan for the entire rebellion process, but with a very strong realistic guiding plan. In fact, no matter who does something, it is difficult to succeed without a plan with actual execution. Not to mention such a difficult and high-risk thing as rebellion.

The Wuchang Uprising, which was famous in later generations and was concerned by many real historians and self-proclaimed historians, was carried out in an orderly manner without passion in reality.

More than 2,000 soldiers of the Wuchang Left Guard led by He Zuxian, who was the rebel party, and 5,600 family members led by Gu Dajun, the leader of the Huguang General Army, who was the suppressor. Both sides are in a state of slow pacing with a sluggish lag.

If there is a modern person on the spot to observe both sides. It is very likely that he will not be able to determine that an uprising is about to break out in Wuchang Mansion.

When Gu Dajun, the chief soldier of Huguang, was sleeping on his bed, the soldiers on the colonel's field were electing He Zuxian as the leader. Although the speed of receiving the news was not slow, the reaction of the Huguang General Soldier Yamen to this matter was quite slow.

Gu Dajun, who was born in the Jingshi Marquis Mansion, did not look like a military attaché. Whether it is in terms of style or living habits, Gu Dajun is more civil than ordinary civil officials.

For example, when his staff and family members ran back to the chief soldier's yamen to report the situation, Gu Da was still sleeping. The night before, he had a meeting with several civil officials from the Yamen of Wuchang Mansion in Yihong Mansion. The two sides had a full discussion on the advantages and disadvantages of Yangzhou Slender Horse and Datong's mother-in-law. The meeting was very constructive.

Therefore, even though it was already ten o'clock in the morning, Mr. Gu Dajun, who had drunk a lot of wine and had done a lot of physical exercises, was still sleeping in his bedroom.

The 800 ancient official eunuchs, especially the noble families, are not like the wild prince, Wang Shuhui's father-in-law Zhu Shuzhen and the wild county lord, Wang Shuhui's wife Zhu Weiyan, they are naïve when they say it is good, and they are the same family style as a rural village husband when they say it is bad.

What grade of official, what kind of house to live in. What kind of identity, what kind of style, etc., etc., are all kinds of cumbersome and meticulous rules that the upper class of feudal society must follow. To put it mildly, in the room, what kind of person sits on what kind of stool, and where the stool should be placed, these trivial things, if you get it wrong, you will die. This is not an exaggeration.

So, you can imagine. Even if the house was burned outside, the staff and family members of the chief soldier who ran back to report the news did not have the courage to wake up Gu Dajun, who was sleeping. Not to mention that they went to wake up people, in fact, after they ran back to the general soldier's yamen, for more than two hours, they were honestly waiting in the gatehouse to be heard.

Of course, they didn't dare to save money for the doorman and the soles of the servants who delivered the news because of the urgency of the situation.

Just when a few of them were honestly waiting for the chief soldier to get up. Two hours later, more than 2,000 soldiers of the Wuchang Left Guard, all armed with spears and swords, rushed into the unsuspecting Yamen of the Governor of Huguang.

In the last years of the Ming Dynasty, what did the so-called high-ranking military attachés refer to when they were full of combat power? This strong combat power does not necessarily mean that these pro-soldier families really have high martial arts and superb military qualities. In a way, these pro-soldiers are actually the personal bodyguards of these military attachés. For them, winning battles is not their main goal. Protecting the life of their generals is their primary duty.

Moreover, even in the Nine Border Region, the pro-soldiers of those military attachés at all levels who directly confronted the invaders of various northern barbarian peoples. When they were fighting the barbarians, they weren't necessarily the main force. Generally speaking, it was a few hundred family members, driving thousands of ordinary soldiers who were cannon fodder to charge forward.

If the barbarians are crushed, they will be able to ride their horses to slash down their enemies and earn some military merit. If the barbarians are unlucky, if the barbarians break the charge of the cannon fodder and counter-charge, they will have to make full use of their riding advantage to protect the general's rapid evacuation of the site.

In fact, the so-called Liaodong Iron Cavalry, such as Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui, who are famous in the nine sides, is such a set of things. Otherwise, what nonsense such as "the Jurchen is not satisfied with 10,000 people, and they are invincible with 10,000 people" came from the so-called Liaodong Iron Cavalry. In fact, three or four thousand Sichuan white pole soldiers can beat the same number of Houjin soldiers even more than this all over the ground. The so-called nine-sided soldiers with the largest combat power in the Ming Dynasty have long been rotten.

So, you can imagine. What kind of scene will more than 2,000 organized, disciplined (relative), targeted, and planned guards look like when they are faced with hundreds of scattered and unprepared soldiers.

The two sides passed through a simple confrontation at the gate of the governor's yamen. The general soldiers, who were unable to "charge" on horseback, were defeated by the rebel soldiers who formed a dense spear formation under the leadership of the captains of their respective small flag teams.

Nearly 600 of them, known as the first in Huguang's combat power, and many of them were the pro-soldiers and iron cavalry who had been brought over from Jiubian by the relationship of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, and they were so silently swallowed up by the spear array of the rebel soldiers.

Although the insurrectionary soldiers were organized, this organization was completely relative. After the slight resistance was cleared and the general army's yamen was breached, the organization of the rebel soldiers could not be maintained.

After attacking the Yamen of the General Army, some soldiers fell into a kind of madness that had just finished killing. Some soldiers fell into an unbelievable ecstasy. Some soldiers even lost their minds and stretched out their magic hands to women such as handmaidens. However, more soldiers flocked to the grain and silver depots in the general army's yamen.

After He Zuxian entered the Yamen of the General Army, the first thing he did was to walk into the room of the General Soldier Gu Dajun with a big knife. Lord Gu Dajun's heart is really big enough. It's like this outside, and his old man is still in a state of hangover. In front of several small leaders who followed He Zuxian closely, He Zuxian raised his knife and cut off Gu Dajun's head directly on the bed cleanly.

The few small leaders who followed He Zuxian were all people who had studied martial arts with He Zuxian's father in the past or directly from He Zuxian. They originally thought that He Zuxian ran into Gu Dajun's room to kidnap Gu Dajun and protect everyone's safety. Who would have thought that He Zuxian would cut off the head of the chief soldier in front of everyone like this.

Dumbfounded as He Zuxian calmly wiped the big knife in his hand with a sheet, they heard He Zuxian say in a calm tone that they would never forget for the rest of their lives: "Now the general soldier has also been killed." In addition to rebellion, everyone is really completely out of retreat. I can only go one way to the dark. ”

Everyone seemed to know He Zuxian for the first time, and they stared at him together, not knowing what kind of response they should make at this time.

After a long while, they heard He Zuxian say, "Capture the thief and capture the king first." This is nothing more than the capture of the first thief king. Let's hurry up and gather some reliable brothers who have seen blood when they attacked the general army's yamen just now. Let's hurry up and eat. After that, there will be those big officials of the governor's yamen and the government to be killed. ”

Dare to kill, dare to kill a big official who is regarded by everyone as a noble man in heaven, and at the same time can talk to everyone calmly. His words are immensely authoritative.

The little leaders who followed He Zuxian in didn't even think for a second that they shouldn't listen to He Zuxian's thoughts. They immediately saluted He Zuxian in accordance with the military etiquette that they were already not very proficient in. Then he went out to carry out the order.

After everyone left, He Zuxian sat on the ground. He let out a deep sigh and muttered in a strange, seemingly relaxed and desperate tone, "This thing has finally been done. The rest of the matter can be much easier. ”

At this moment, He Zuxian actually missed his deceased uncle who had passed away. He felt that if his uncle was here, he would be able to ask his uncle if he was doing the right thing
