Chapter 287: Counterattack

Remember [69 Chinese Network] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

The fifteenth year of Yongtai is destined to be an unquiet year.

The disaster has slowed down, but the anti-thieves have become more and more fierce.

The Maison fought back, and the imperial power was challenged.

Yan Shouzhan obtained Bohai County, his strength increased greatly, and he quickly sent troops to counterattack Xirong's soldiers and horses.

The southern army went out of Beijing to quell the rebellion, the battle plan was leaked, and it was ambushed halfway, suffering heavy casualties.

The second prince, Xiao Chengwen, was seriously ill and bedridden.

Emperor Yongtai vomited blood again and again in Xingqing Palace.

The family pressed forward step by step, so that he had no respite.

The granary of the world, the tax-paying land, was destroyed like a thief locust.

Not to mention the death and injury, what about this year's taxes alone?

One by one, one by one, the whole world has been caught in the flames.

Local generals sent troops to quell the rebellion, but they did not contribute to the work.

The emperor can receive the recital of asking for money and food every day.

If they don't give money or food, they will be passive and slack off, and they will not kill all the thieves.

Syllable!

Emperor Yongtai was so angry that he overturned the desk, and all the pieces on the table were swept to the ground.

"Presumptuous! All presumptuous! ”

"Damn! Everyone's damned! ”

Sun Bangnian knelt on the ground, crying and shouting, "Your Majesty, reconcile with the family!" Keep fighting, the people can't stand it! ”

"Shut up! Who asked you to be a lobbyist? How many people do you really take money from? ”

"If the old slave receives a penny, he will be thundered by the sky, and he will not die well!"

Sun Bangnian kowtowed, one after another, bang......

His forehead was broken, and the blood flowed for a long time, but he didn't stop.

The blood fell down the steps drop by drop, and he could already see the white bones on his forehead.

If you knock it down again, he'll die!

"Enough!"

Emperor Yongtai was finally reluctant to die in the year of Sun Bang.

If Sun Bangnian died, who else would be better at serving and understanding my intentions than him?

Sun Bangnian escaped and survived, "Thank Your Majesty for not killing." ”

Emperor Yongtai didn't want to see his blood-stained face, so he scolded sharply: "Get out! ”

Sun Bangnian received the order and rolled away mellowly.

Emperor Yongtai coughed again.

It's already summer, and the weather in the capital is getting hotter.

Xiao Huangmen was wearing a thin summer coat, and he could sweat a lot.

Emperor Yongtai felt a little cold, so he put on a robe.

There was no ice basin in the main hall because the emperor did not need it.

This is a bitter errand for the Yellow Gate waiter, who can only sweat on his errand.

The emperor slowly walked down the steps and walked step by step to the entrance of the main hall.

He stood under the eaves and looked at the blue sky, it was so beautiful!

With such magnificent rivers and mountains, why is God willing to toss repeatedly, so that the mountains and rivers are stained with blood, the people suffer, the people's hearts are not ancient, and the world is declining?

He looked up to the sky and roared, indignant in his heart.

"The Xuan courtiers are here, and I want to hold a big court meeting!"

The struggle between the emperor and the family lasted almost a year, ending in a compromise with the emperor.

A big court meeting, although it did not solve any practical problems, the return of the family officials to the court is the strongest signal.

It's time for the struggle between the imperial power and the family to end.

The Emperor admits defeat!

It was the Maison's greatest victory in years, and it deserves everyone's cheers.

The family is very knowledgeable, and if the emperor compromises, they will also take the initiative to make concessions and show enough sincerity.

They withdrew all support for the anti-thieves, food, weapons, veterans, maps, information......

I thought that as long as all the support was withdrawn, the rebels would soon not be exterminated.

But I didn't know that after nearly a year of covert support, the family personally cultivated a rabble with no direction, no scale, and no formation into a real thief with scale and combat effectiveness, and also a direction and goal.

The Maison withdrew all support, and the thieves began to merge, either passively or actively.

A group of scattered small thieves merged together and became a big thief who shook the world.

No food, no weapons......

So they went down the mountain and plundered the city, the government, and even the storehouses of the family......

They come and go like the wind, are agile, and are familiar with the terrain.

They occupied territory, fought steadily, redivided the military system, established a vertical rank in the army, and formed a field road army that began to take shape.

They laid down mines, plundered artisans, and crafted weapons for them.

They also plundered large numbers of people to farm for themselves.

Learning from the government, he began to collect taxes on the territory.

They established their own government and developed their own system to govern the people in their territory.

They slaughtered and drove away the families of their land, and plundered their property......

In order to deal with the imperial power, the family single-handedly created a thief, but after all, it was counterattacked.

The leader of the anti-thieves, Sima Dou, is known as General Sima.

At the beginning, he was a little thief who was inconspicuous and relied on the support of the family, and he was on the verge of extinction several times.

Battles of life and death again and again made this rough man who ran out from the depths of the mountain and knew a few words grow up quickly.

He seized the opportunity to start by merging the forces around him, step by step, and in just a few months, he became the most famous and powerful anti-thief in the world.

The family withdrew all support, making it clear that they wanted to make them cannon fodder and use their heads to give the emperor an explanation.

Can you bear it?

Of course not!

Whoever dares to ask for his head, he will kill him!

burned and merged all the way, and finally let him fight his way out, kill his territory, and kill a seemingly foreseeable future.

The family made him, but he hated the family the most.

In the eyes of the family, he and all the thieves are a group of clowns, who are played with by the family at will.

Therefore, he killed the family and was also the most ruthless.

Will the family sit and be beaten obediently?

Of course not!

Faced with the consequences of their own planting, the family also began a strong counterattack.

They concentrated the forces that were originally used to fight the imperial power and began to cooperate with the army to fight against this group of rebels who did not know the height of the sky.

Dare to kill the family, all the thieves in the world should be damned!

A war is in full swing to strangle the anti-thieves.

……

Emperor Yongtai laughed.

It's really good to use the power of the family to deal with the thieves.

Seeing the family being killed by the thieves, Emperor Yongtai's mood was extremely comfortable.

"The cause they planted themselves, and now they bear the consequences, and they are really self-inflicted!"

Let's fight, let's fight, it's better to lose both, and ask him to pick up a bargain.

There is other good news.

Liangzhou soldiers and horses are the same as Youzhou soldiers and horses, and the front and rear are surrounded by Xirong soldiers and horses.

Xirong was defeated and fled north.

In order to escape for his life, he abandoned a large number of looted supplies and people along the way.

Liangzhou soldiers and horses chased all the way.

Youzhou soldiers and horses are harvesting the materials left by Xirong's soldiers and horses.

These supplies are returned to the people affected by the ice disaster?

Daydream!

The materials that were obtained by the soldiers and horses of Youzhou had no reason to hand them over.

The royal court of Xirong took the remnants and galloped like the wind, fleeing frantically.

The soldiers and horses of Liangzhou followed closely behind, biting and biting.

In the end, the remnants of Xirong were strangled, and countless materials were harvested.

Don't take the captives, behead them all.

Even the members of the Xirong royal court also did not leave a living mouth, and all of them were beheaded.

At most, it is to use lime to embalm and send the head to the emperor, so that the emperor can see the appearance of the members of the Xirong royal court.

Liangzhou soldiers and horses returned the same way.

If you have made a monstrous achievement, you should be rewarded for your meritorious deeds.

Yan guarded the Youzhou soldiers and horses, but just sent troops to drag the Xirong soldiers and horses, and won a Bohai County.

The soldiers and horses of Liangzhou exterminated the Xirong royal court, if there were no two high-class counties and a large number of financial rewards, it would be unreasonable.

The credit was reported to the imperial court, but the imperial court did not follow up for a long time.

Liu Baoping, a concubine, frequently went to the palace to enter the palace, and even met the emperor alone, begging the emperor to give Liangzhou soldiers and horses a reward worthy of merit.

Don't dare to ask for more, as long as it is not less than Yan Shouzhan's reward.

Only then did Emperor Yongtai realize that handing over Bohai County to Yan Shouzhan was a very stinky move.

Made a very bad, very bad head.

This time, if he agreed to the request of the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou, he would give it to two counties.

After the local generals successfully quell the thieves, more generals will ask the court for land and taxes, and they will all follow the same example.

Bottom line: Why can Yan Shouzhan and Liangzhou soldiers and horses get the rewards of the county, but they can't get it?

They all contribute the same effort to fight, and they all have war losses, so why should they be treated differently.

When the generals made a fuss, the emperor did not dare to imagine the consequences.

Really, before he had time to be happy, a basin of cold water was poured on his head, and the emperor was cold all over his body.

He said very seriously to the concubine Liu Baoping: "Liu Aiqing, you know the difficulties of the imperial court!" There are some things that cannot be done twice. Some heads, can't be opened! ”

Liu Juma raised his head and asked, "Your Majesty's meaning, is it that you can't give Liangzhou soldiers and horses a reward worthy of merit?" ”

"I will make up for the money and food, and I will also give a decree of praise."

Liu Juma lowered his head and smiled, "Weichen obeys the order!" ”

Emperor Yongtai is very satisfied, Liu Juma is an interesting person.

It is believed that with Liu Juma's mediation, the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou will soon return to the border of Liangzhou and will not make trouble.

However......

The Emperor thought things were too good.

Liangzhou soldiers and horses and Youzhou soldiers and horses are dry!

The soldiers and horses of both sides fought and used weapons.

Yan Shouzhan and the other party's generals came forward in person, and only then did they suppress his subordinates.

However, the two sides continued to confront each other.

When the news reached the capital, Emperor Yongtai was shocked and extremely angry.

"Where is Liu Juma? Why are Liangzhou soldiers and horses still staying in Youzhou? Why don't you immediately return to the Liangzhou boundary? ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen has written a letter to the army in accordance with His Majesty's instructions and persuaded the generals in the army. However, the officers and men in the army did not agree! They traveled thousands of miles, and many of their brothers remained on the grassland forever, never to return to their homeland, but they did not get the reward they deserved. On the contrary, it was the soldiers and horses of Youzhou, who did not contribute to the war, but made a lot of money. Please Your Majesty give Liangzhou Erlang a fair treatment! ”

"You are presumptuous!"

"Wechen doesn't dare to be presumptuous! Wechen has always done things according to His Majesty's orders. Weichen just stated the truth in the army and let His Majesty know the truth. If His Majesty thinks that it is not good for the minister, the minister will resign and will no longer interfere in the military. ”

If you dare to pick a son at this time, are you threatening me?

Emperor Yongtai was furious and was about to order Liu Baoping to be arrested.
