It turned out that Zuo Guang first failed to ambush Zhu Yuanzhang in the mountains and forests, and the ambushes on both sides were repulsed, and he saw that the three thousand black pole soldiers led by Xu Renjie were really powerful, although the combat experience was relatively lacking, and the morale was slightly poor, but as long as he fought a few more battles, he could become a very powerful special force in the mountains and forests.

Zuo Guangxian didn't want to go back to Guangyuan City to garrison, he didn't win in the mountains and forests, and when he arrived at this relatively flat place, he didn't dare to let go with Zhu Yuanzhang's 20,000 army, so he ran away with the Sichuan soldiers under his command and left the county town alone.

Guangyuan Zhixian in the city is simply called every day, and the earth is not spiritual, and when he saw that the Zhu army was pressing, he had to obediently open the city and surrender.

Replaced by Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai and others, this magistrate may not dare to surrender, it is not good to gather the township to defend the city bravely, and the enemy will die, but if it is replaced by Baishui Zhu Ba, the situation will be different. Guangyuan is very close to Shaanxi, he has long heard a lot of Zhu Jun's deeds, and knows that Zhu Jun is completely different from other rogues, he will not kill innocents indiscriminately, nor will he easily slaughter officials of the imperial court, although he may not believe these rumors, but it is always much better than the 36th battalion, right? Therefore he was so bold and heart-wrenching that he opened the gate of the city and ran out to surrender.

Since he was going to surrender to the thieves, of course, he had to reduce the court to worthlessness, but he didn't dare to understand that it was not the one who scolded the court blatantly, so after leaving the city, he threw all his anger on Zuo Guangxian, and said angrily to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Zuo Guangxian, that bastard, he actually ignored the lives of the people in our city, and led the troops over the mountain and ran away." The court is full of such traitors, and the officials are ...... Cough...... The lower officials decided to abandon the darkness and turn to the light...... Welcome General Zhenxi into the city. ”

"Abandon the darkness and turn to the light?" The leader of the Zhu army couldn't help but laugh, he used this word ...... It's hard to say whether it's abandoning the dark and turning to the light or the light.

But this person is very well-behaved, the so-called punch is difficult to beat the smiling person, for this kind of official who takes the initiative to surrender, Zhu Yuanzhang does not want to toss him, lest other city guards refuse to surrender in the future, and have to fight with him. So Wen Yan said: "Very good, since you are so knowledgeable." This Guangyuan Zhi County. Just let you continue to carry it. ”

Nazhi County was overjoyed, and his face was full of joy and his face was revealed. He didn't know that Zhu Jun had just arrived from afar, and he brought all the generals and soldiers with him, and he didn't bring civilian officials with the army. Otherwise, he will definitely be turned into a civilian. Now it's just a matter of letting him temporarily take the position of Guangyuan Zhixian. Wait until Zhu Jun straightens out the situation here, transfers his cronies, and then asks him to abdicate obediently.

Zhu Yuanzhang accepted the surrender of Guangyuan Zhi County on the one hand. While looking around, I saw that many people poked their heads out of the city, timidly looking at the army outside the city, and did not know what was happening.

His heart moved, and he asked Guangyuan Zhixian: "Do the people of Guangyuan know who I am?" ”

Na Zhixian shook his head and said: "These foolish people don't know anything, but there are many rich people in the city who know who you are, but the rich people and the foolish people can't get together, and their news has not been known to these people." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted, and thought about it in his heart, this is a thing worth using. You must know that the Zhu army is not as untidy as the ordinary thief army, and with the same purple battle jacket, it is clearly distinguishable from the thief army, and the people at the head of the city look out, and they can't figure out what kind of army they are.

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered someone to carry the banner of "General Zhenxi", deliberately unfolded it under the city, and then smiled at Nazhi County: "You go and send a notice to inform the people of the city that I am the general of Zhenxi from Shaanxi, because Zuo Guangxian was corrupt and perverted the law, did not listen to the orders of the imperial court, and seized the land to establish himself as the king, so I came to expel him...... Don't tell them anything else. ”

When the magistrate heard this, he immediately understood, Zhu Ba was disguising himself as an officer and soldier, what he didn't figure out was what was the benefit of a thief army disguising himself as an officer and soldier? Although Zhu Jun is rumored not to rob or burn, but he does not believe it, as long as this thief army enters the city, he will definitely rob the city to the bottom, when the time comes, you say that you are officers and soldiers, who will believe it? Although officers and men often kill good people and take advantage of their exploits and plunder the people's property, they all do this kind of thing in hiding in small villages, and they have never heard of running into big cities to do it blatantly, believing that officers and men will be bound and unable to carry out their activities.

He couldn't figure it out, and the red lady naturally couldn't figure it out either, she leaned to Zhu Yuanzhang's side and asked in a low voice: "Eighth Brother Zhu, what do we have to disguise ourselves as officers and soldiers?" We should explain that we are Zhu Jun from Shaanxi, and this will be our territory in the future, right? lest these people get our benefits, and think that it is the grace of the court. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "The people of Sichuan are tough, if they know that we are a thief army, they have to fight with us, even if they can't win, they will be killed, I will pretend to be officers and soldiers first, let them feel the kindness of our Zhu army to them, and then show their true identity, then they will not fight with us." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's concerns are not unreasonable, you must know that when the Manchu Tartars entered Sichuan, three million Sichuan people and Tartars stumbled, and in the end only 200,000 people remained, and a full 2.8 million people turned into ashes, and the Tartars finally cleaned up Sichuan. If Zhu Jun is here to say that we are not from the imperial court, but rebels, and now we are going to occupy this place, you are obedient! As soon as this order came out, hundreds of people immediately rushed out, knocking you to death with a hoe, either you die or he dies...... This is not what Zhu Yuanzhang wants to see.

For these fierce people, you need to coax first! Coax him well, and when they know how good you are, they will use his toughness to help you.

The red lady listened to Zhu Yuanzhang's whispered explanation, and then she understood, she blinked her eyes wide, and couldn't help but praise: "Eighth Brother Zhu, I found that you are really a very smart person...... At least many times smarter than me. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless.

The red lady said coquettishly: "If you are willing to spend some time on reading, you will definitely become a great poet." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said helplessly: "What is so good about poets? ”

The red lady stuck out her tongue: "I don't know, it's good anyway...... When I was a child, I heard Mr. Storyteller tell the story of Grandpa Yue, and read "Man Jianghong", although I couldn't understand it, I always felt that the poem was so powerful. I think that a good man is a man who can fight and write poetry. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless, turned his head, patted Ma Xiaotian on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "Learn to write poetry hard." ”

Ma Xiaotian was speechless, and asked him, a poor bear child who grew up in a poor village, to write poems, so it was better to drag him to the execution ground and cut off his head with a knife.

At this time, the Guangyuan County Commander had already sent people to shout in the county seat, and he sent several changfu, these people held a big gong in their hands, banged on the ground, and then opened their throats and shouted: "The villagers have listened, outside the city is the army of the general of Zhenxi, and under the order of the imperial court, drive away the traitor Zuo Guangxian, who occupies the land as the king...... Boom...... Listen to the villagers, it's ...... outside the city."

At this time, there is no wireless broadcasting, there is no television, to spread the word to the people of the city, the fastest way is to rely on this kind of transmission, the husbands while striking the gong, while spreading the word, the people heard that there are officers and soldiers outside the city, the cold in their hearts is slightly restrained, but there are many people still nervously holding weapons, because the officers and soldiers are not a good thing, Zuo Guangxian just came to Guangyuan to station, he harmed the people here, many soldiers on the street to eat and take cards to beat people, and a few good girls were ruined by the officers and soldiers, Of course, the fierce Sichuan people refused to give up, and they had to organize Xiang Yong and Zuo Guang to fight each other at that time. Later, relying on the joint efforts of the county order and the gentry in the city to appease, Zuo Guangxian saw that the people of Sichuan were not easy to bully, so he quickly restrained the foot soldiers and did not make any more trouble.

Now that Zuo Guang has left first, and a new officer and soldier have arrived, these things will be staged again, so the people are still very vigilant.

However, the next development was much more unexpected than the Sichuan people, Zhu Jun entered the city safely, not only did not make trouble along the way, not even a single soldier left the team, all the Zhu soldiers walked in the team in an orderly manner, still passed through the main road in the city, entered the barracks, and then divided into several teams to occupy the four gates, and did not do anything superfluous!

Moreover, these soldiers did not leave the camp for the next few days, and they were very disciplined, and except for the four troops guarding the city gates, they stayed in the barracks all day and night, and would never run into the streets to make trouble, which surprised the people of Sichuan.

After a few more days, the soldiers in the barracks finally came out, and the Sichuan people thought that they were going to start making trouble, but they did not expect these soldiers to line up out of the city and go to the mountains north of Guangyuan to train...... It turned out that after the Zhu army gained a firm foothold in Guangyuan, he used Guangyuan as a bridgehead and sent many spies to investigate the situation in Sichuan.

The Sichuan people of Guangyuan finally believed that this was a well-disciplined army and would not do the slightest disturbance to the people, which made them feel much better, and the people began to talk about this army with enthusiasm. Although the rich people in the city know who Baishui Zhuba is, they won't be stupid to shout everywhere, aren't they afraid of losing their heads?

In the blink of an eye, a few days will pass, autumn will end, winter is coming, Sichuan's winter is particularly cold, although Sichuan is located in the south, but the humidity in the air is very heavy, so in winter, Sichuan is actually colder than the north, in previous years, Guangyuan this poor place must rely on the rich Chengdu Plain to resell food and clothing, the people can ensure that food and clothing are not lacking, but this year the situation is different, there are 36 battalions on the Chengdu Plain in trouble, the trade route is cut off, the poor Guangyuan people are miserable.
