Chapter 176: The soldiers are divided into four routes
On this day, in the central location of the county seat, the original official yamen is now the residence of the 36th battalion alliance leader Wang for his own use, and it is also a place where many leaders discuss things.
At this time, in the conference hall, there were thirty or forty people gathered in large and small collars, only a dozen people were sitting, and the other collars were all standing, located behind the seats on both sides, and the person sitting on the seat was the leader of the 36th battalion of the general alliance Wang himself, speaking loudly, as if he was giving a speech.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you must have received the news that just half a month ago, Shen Yikui once again raised troops to rebel, and the other leaders of Fu also rose up again one after another to show their response. The situation in Shaanxi, which had just slowed down, suddenly became tense again, and it was in favor of our 36th camp. At the same time, judging from the situation of Shen Yikui and others, the court's appeasement policy is simply a joke, a big joke in the world, and they just want to deceive us. ”
As soon as Wang Ziyong's voice fell, Zhang Cunmeng, who was in the tail seat, immediately stood up and couldn't help but echo: "What the alliance leader said is right, I want to be Zhang, and I have also accepted the appeasement of the imperial court. However, all of this was just a deception, used to confuse our hearts and minds, and there was no sincerity at all. Tens of thousands of surrendered rebel troops, the imperial court only allocated 100,000 taels of silver, plus donations from vassal kings and wealthy merchants, it was only 150,000 silver and 20,000 stone of grain. ”
As he spoke, Zhang Cunmeng became indignant, looking angry.
"The food is insufficient, the silver is not enough, the court promised to make up for it in the future, and it will also send farm tools and grain. However, what about the facts? The fact is that after they returned to their hometowns, they honestly stayed at home, but the court no longer cared about them, and increased taxes. Anyway, advancing is death, retreating is death, it's better to carry the banner of rebellion again, at least one less chance of being starved to death, hum... Grandma's! ”
"Hehe... Zhang Ling said well, and Wang agreed very much. Wang Ziyong smiled indifferently, echoed a sentence, followed closely, and said further: "Moreover, this time is different from the past, Yang He was dismissed and held accountable, sentenced to go to the border, and Hong Chengchou came to power as the new governor of the three sides, and it is impossible to appease him." Even if there is a intention to surrender, there will be evil intentions behind it. ”
The room was very quiet, all looking at Wang Ziyong, listening to the other party's narration, and the latter was even more focused on everyone, telling while watching, and the tone aggravated the atmosphere.
"Leaders should remember that Hong Chengchou has always opposed his predecessor Yang He, adopted a strategy of appeasement, and believed in heavy military suppression to eliminate future troubles, especially for our leaders of various rebel armies."
"I believe you haven't forgotten that in April of this year, Hong Chengchou assigned He Renlong, under the pretext of surrendering wine, to gather the appeased rebel army together, and when they were thanking, the ambush hidden around was suddenly difficult, and killed 320 people who surrendered at once. In August of the same year, Hong Chengchou conspired with Li Yingqi, the chief soldier of Shanxi, and Du Wenhuan, the chief soldier, to arrange a large number of officers and troops in advance to kill all 98 people, including Wang Zuogui and Miao Dengyun. ”
......
As Wang Ziyong narrated, citing bloody examples, everyone was silent, their expressions were very solemn, and there was a depressing atmosphere in the hall, listening quietly.
However, at this moment, in the corner of this hall, two people were biting their ears. Because they were whispering and hiding behind everyone, no one showed their small actions, it was Li Zicheng and Gao Yigong.
Every time he bites his ear, Gao Yigong will use his finger to touch it, or he will nunu his mouth in a certain direction.
"Brother-in-law, you see, the person who is in the upper seat and is talking is the Zijin Liang King's own use, the general alliance leader of the 36th battalion, who was originally Zuo Cheng led by Wang Jiayin. After Wang Jiayin was assassinated, Youcheng Bai Yuzhu surrendered to the official army, and he naturally became the commander of the 36th Battalion, and no one could sit on an equal footing with him and grab this position. However, brother-in-law, you don't have to worry, this alliance leader is also a virtual title, and it doesn't have much binding force on each leader. ”
"There is also the person who is seated on the left, you have also seen, it is Luo Rucai, the man of the hour among the leaders of the thirty-sixth battalion, although there are not many subordinates, but his prestige is excellent, and the relationship with each leader is extremely good, known as 'Cao Cao', it can be seen that this person is extremely good at strategy, insidious and cunning, and his favor is extremely sophisticated."
"The next seat is the sweeping king, the black god, the king of troubled times, Liu Guoneng, the old Hui Ma Shouying, the starry sky, the person on the right does not need to be introduced, uncle Gao Yingxiang. The next seat is Zhang Miaoshou, Bai Jiu'er, a gust of wind, nine dragons, the four heavenly kings and Zhang Cunmeng. As for the other leaders, it is not enough to introduce, there are not as many people as brothers-in-law, only three or four hundred people are less, and the most is only two or three thousand, like Wang Mengzhu, there are about 20,000 people under his command, and the remnants of Wang Jiayin are almost completely absorbed....."
"Shhhh ”
Hearing this, Gao Yigong was stunned, and thought to himself, in the past few years, he has followed his uncle to run west, and watched these people fight each other and brag about each other, what can be the main point? However, seeing his brother-in-law's serious face, he didn't say anything more and looked up.
I saw Wang Ziyong looking at everyone with a smile, as always, he could say, after the leader of this alliance has finished speaking, do you have anything else to add? Then he sat back, with a hypocritical expression, waiting for the other leaders to speak.
To Gao Yigong's surprise, when the others applauded, he answered "no" as usual, in order to end the boring and boring gathering of the leaders, Gao Yingxiang did not follow the applause of the crowd, but stood up abruptly and said in public: "Alliance leader, Gao has some opinions he wants to say, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone who was about to applaud stopped their gestures, and all looked at Gao Yingxiang in disbelief, Wang Ziyong frowned slightly, and did not express his position immediately, but Luo Rucai was eyes rolled, smelled a trace of embarrassment, and then laughed and said: "Hehe... Every time the leader of the alliance convenes and presides over such a meeting, it is not only to let the leaders of the 36th Battalion get together every once in a while, meet each other, contact each other, and become more familiar with each other, but also to brainstorm ideas to facilitate the future actions of the 36th Battalion against the officers and soldiers. Since Gao Ling has any good ideas, how can the alliance leader have an opinion? ”
Immediately, all eyes turned to Wang Ziyong, who came to his senses and realized that he should not hesitate, and should have immediately agreed to Gao Yingxiang's seemingly abrupt and offensive request. As soon as he thought of this, he had Luo Rucai's steps, so he won the buffer time, and then said: "Gao Ling, why be so polite? Please, but it doesn't hurt to say! ”
"Well, okay, alliance leader, then you're welcome."
Gao Yingxiang said politely, a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes, and then he talked eloquently, quite instructively.
"Brothers, since the first month of this year, since the imperial court approved the trilateral governor's surrender policy, our rebel armies from all walks of life have begun to have everything going wrong, and they have been disturbed by Yang He's appeasement strategy, and the army's morale is unstable. First of all, in March, Shen Yikui led the people to surrender, and 60,000 or 70,000 people were recruited by Yang He to surrender, which suddenly dealt a heavy blow to the interior of the rebel army and became unstable. Subsequently. Lighting the lamp, going to the sky, Wang Lao Wu, the lone wolf, Hao Lin'an and others also accepted the appeasement one after another. Since then, there have been few rebellions in Shaanxi. ”
In an instant, the hall became extremely quiet, it was an extremely strange quiet, Gao Yingxiang immediately felt the change in this atmosphere, realized that his words had collided with some people, and hurriedly explained: "I'm really sorry, Gao was reckless, there are also many people here who have returned from Shaanxi, and they have no intention of offending, but they just want to talk about the situation of the 36th Battalion, which will be in danger." ”
"Hmph..."
A cold snort came from all directions to show the dissatisfaction in his chest, but he did not continue to investigate, Gao Yingxiang's words had an insinuation.
Gao Yingxiang coughed dryly, deeply knowing that he had ignored these rebel armies from the west, most of whom had surrendered to the imperial court, and then the situation forced him to raise the banner of rebellion again.
Of course, in this short process, there are also people with bad intentions, waiting to see Gao Yingxiang's deflated appearance, and the latter seems to have not seen the ill intentions of these people, did not tell the past, and began to go straight to the point.
"I wonder if there is a phenomenon among the leaders? The changes in the situation of our rebel army, from prosperity to decline, and then to prosperity, and so on, are inextricably linked with the situation in Shanhaiguan. ”
Known as Cao Cao, Luo Rucai was the first to react, probably guessing what Gao Yingxiang wanted to express, but he still frowned slightly, and asked uncertainly: "Boss Gao, what you said is too general, can you be more specific?" ”
Luo Rucai's question was in line with Gao Yingxiang's intentions, and then he spoke in detail.
"Luo Ling, and all the leaders, you might as well recall that when our rebel army was at its strongest, it was when Houjin entered Guanzhong, which involved most of the main forces of the official army, and had no time to encircle and suppress the rebel armies from all walks of life. If you don't guess wrong, you can see that Yang He also took a strong suppression in the early stage, if there was no Tartar disaster in Guanzhong and threatened the Jingshi, this trilateral governor would not have surrendered us. ”
"Also, since the second half of last year, the situation of the rebel armies in all walks of life has begun to take a sharp turn for the worse, and they have been encircled and suppressed by the officials and troops. Coupled with Yang He's surrender strategy, it made our internal division sharply, and there were many internal strife, and many leaders were assassinated by their own people as a bargaining chip for surrender. ”
"For a time, the rebel armies in Shaanxi were severely defeated. As for the rebel army that entered Shanxi, the situation was better, and under the leadership of the late leader Wang Jiayin, it not only repelled Hong Chengchou's pursuers, but also gained a firm foothold in Shanxi, and laid a lot of territory in Pingyang Province and Zezhou. ”
Watching everyone's expressions change with his own story, ups and downs, Gao Yingxiang was indescribably proud in his heart, and his voice was a little higher.
"Even if Wang Jiayin led into our Shanxi and laid a huge territory, it was born when Huang Taiji entered the fortress again and attacked the cities around the Daling River. Moreover, like our current situation, the situation has slowed down, Cao Wenzhao, the chief soldier of Lintao, and Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Xuanda, suddenly stood still, and the 36th battalion was able to breathe a sigh of relief, is this not related to Huang Taiji's re-entry and Kong Youde's mutiny? ”
At this moment, with the end of Gao Yingxiang's last question, the hall became silent, this time the silence was different from just now, most people were very admiring, Wang Ziyong first nodded frequently in approval, and then turned into a solemn face, and asked in confusion: "But, Gao Ling, what you said has anything to do with the current situation of the 36th Battalion?" ”
Without waiting for Gao Yingxiang to answer, Luo Rucai opened his mouth and replied: "Of course it matters!" Ask the world, who doesn't know? Zu Dashou, a rude, righteous and shameless person, did not have the temperament and backbone of a soldier at all, so he first killed the deputy general He Kegang and led the crowd to surrender to Huang Taiji. However, for some reason, this person was able to escape the control of Huang Taiji, and after returning to Jinzhou, he rebelled again and returned to the command of the imperial court. Without Zu Dashou's rebellion, coupled with Zu Dashou's resistance to Huang Taiji in Jinzhou, between an increase and a decrease, there is no need to worry about the rebellion of Kong Youde in Dengzhou, and within two or three months, he will be put down or appeased. ”
"Oh... I understand. Wang Ziyong echoed, as if in order to increase his convincing, he really understood, and further said: "Without the Liaodong Rebellion, the court will have no worries." It is believed that it will not be long before Cao Wenzhao and Zhang Zongheng will stop this state and once again encircle, intercept, and suppress the 36th Battalion. ”
As soon as the words fell, the hall was full of solemn atmosphere, and Wang Ziyong looked at Gao Yingxiang again and asked solemnly: "That... Gao Ling, in the face of this imminent change of situation, do you have a good countermeasure? ”
Hearing this, Gao Yingxiang waited for this moment, then showed a very confident smile, and replied: "Alliance leader, Gao does have a plan, I don't know if it is feasible or not, after saying it, the leaders will discuss it together." After all, one person counts short, two people count long, right? ”
"Boss Gao, tell me quickly, what is the best policy?" Wang Ziyong couldn't help but urge.
"Alliance leader, ladies and gentlemen, compared with the official army, our biggest advantage is that we have great mobility, we can run around, the supply of troops is replenished quickly, and the development is even faster. And what about the officers and soldiers? It lies in the excellent weapons, the high quality of the soldiers, and the good at fighting and cooperating with each other. Don't look at the momentum of our 36th battalion, there are more than 200,000 people. However, it is far from being an opponent of tens of thousands of officers and troops. ”
Gao Yingxiang sold a pass, paused for a moment, in order to raise everyone's attention to the highest, and then continued the topic just now.
"Therefore, our rebel armies from all walks of life must use their strengths, disperse, divide the troops into four routes, and stir up the darkness of Pingyang Mansion, Zezhou, Lu'an Mansion, Qinzhou, Liaozhou and Taiyuan Mansion, and turn Shanxi into a second Shaanxi, where riots are everywhere."
"Wonderful, wonderful! In this way, the court will be overwhelmed and unsettled. With the current strength of the official army, it will really evolve into a second Shaanxi, and in a short period of time, the imperial court will not be able to quell the rebellion in Shanxi at all. Luo Rucai couldn't help but answer and exclaimed.
