Chapter 70: Fame and Opportunity
Lin Sha is famous, really famous!
His limelight this time was not ordinary, and even Pingxi Wang Lao Wu was shocked.
was attacked by the masters of Mu Wangfu one after another, and he was able to escape unharmed, which was enough to get Lao Wu's attention and attention.
Especially this time, Mu Wangfu dispatched masters including 'Iron-backed Canglong' Liu Dahong and 'Shaking Lion' Wu Lishen, but they still couldn't take Lin Sha. As soon as the news spread, it immediately aroused great repercussions at the top level of Kunming's military and political circles.
Because Lao Wu killed Mu Tianbo, the lord of Mu Wangfu in the previous generation, and formed a deep blood feud with Mu Wangfu, not only Lao Wu became the target of Mu Wangfu's desire to kill, but also the high-level military and political leaders of Yunnan Province were also included in the assassination list of Mu Wangfu, and they could be attacked by Mu Wangfu masters at any time.
Ask yourself, if it were them, they would definitely not be able to get through this difficulty, but Lin Sha escaped unharmed, this ability and ability are not admirable.
So, Lao Wu was happy, and directly promoted Lin Sha to half a grade, from a six-rank thousand to a five-grade guerrilla, and his subordinates were in charge of two battalions of men and horses, not only the previous baggage battalion re-accepted his command, but another battalion of regular soldiers was also commanded and dispatched by him.
In this way, Lin Sha has truly become a rookie in the Dian army, not a so-called rising star!
Directly took charge of the military affairs of the two battalions, was familiar with the personnel of the two battalions and military attachés at all levels, and then went to various banquets, and played the emotional card with the relationship between the officers and colleagues in the army.
When everything was straightened out, half a month had passed.
At this time, Mu Wangfu and others fled Yunnan Province, and the news of their whereabouts also spread in a small area among the high-level officials of Yunnan Province, whether it was Lin Sha, the ultimate beneficiary, or Lao Wu and other high-level military and political officials in Yunnan Province, Qi Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the troublesome spirits of Mu Wangfu finally left.
When he was free, he had the heart to check on his changes.
Sure enough, only experiencing battles of the same level or in a disadvantaged situation is the best shortcut to improve your strength. After experiencing the siege of Mu Wangfu, and finally fighting with the 'iron-backed dragon' Liu Dahong, Lin Sha has gained a lot and has faintly touched the threshold of dark energy.
This is the thing that makes him the happiest, in this era of cold weapons and internal strength, everything is false, only one's own strength is real, as long as one's own strength is strong enough, he can mix it anywhere.
So, he entered the stage of closed-door penance again. Just took the opportunity to sort out the trivial things that the new takeover was in the barracks.
There were suddenly more than 300 regular soldiers under his command, among which the joints were intricate, and it was not so simple to completely rein in the hearts of the army, not only to show sufficient force, but also to show strong wrists, and at the same time to let the brothers see the benefits of following him, all aspects of the matter were trivial and troublesome, and it was very troublesome to solve.
At this moment, several Tusi in Yunnan Province suddenly raised flags to make trouble, and in just a few days, the local order was destroyed to a mess, and urgent documents from local governments flew to Kunming like snowflakes.
Before Lao Wu could make specific countermeasures, the imperial court took the lead in jumping out and inserting a leg.
I forgot to say that at this time, it has been the eighth year of Kangxi, and Kang **zi has been in power for two years, and the most sensational event in the court this year is that this gang of little eunuchs and attendants overturned the powerful ministers in one fell swoop, and completely grasped the power of the court and government.
Now is the time when Kang **zi is the most proud, he has long been dissatisfied with the three feudatories, and he has already had the idea of cutting the feudal domain, and at this time, there is a mess in Yunnan Province, and he naturally can't wait to intervene.
The imperial court issued an edict to reprimand the governor of Yunnan Province, ordering him to quell the rebellion as soon as possible, and at the same time vaguely said that if Yunnan Province was not caught, the imperial court could send some elite green battalions into Yunnan to help suppress!
Is this worth it?
Lao Wu's mind was not old and confused, and he reacted as soon as possible, summoned his henchmen to assign counterinsurgency matters, and at the same time patted his chest at the court and promised: If he can solve such a trivial matter, he will not have to worry about the court!
As one of Lao Wu's sons-in-law and a general of the Yunnan Army, Hu Guozhu directly accepted the task of suppressing the Tusi rebellion in western Yunnan, and the other major generals were also divided into areas to suppress the Tusi rebellion in various places.
This is a great opportunity, a great opportunity to make a fortune!
After Lin Sha got the news, his mind immediately became tired.
He immediately found the little fat man Hu Dashao and asked for details.
Unexpectedly, after meeting, the little fat man had a sad face, and when he saw Lin Sha asking, he didn't want to pour bitter water directly.
His uncle, Hu Guozhu, and Hu Dabing, is in a dilemma this time.
Why?
Because General Hu Da received a thankless errand, none of the powerful generals under his command actively sought to fight, which made General Hu Da Bing sad.
Lin Sha really felt unbelievable when he heard this, Nima's still has such a thing?
The little fat man Hu Dashao looked indignant and explained the inside story to Lin Sha......
It is said that Yunnan Province is not only a mountainous province with dense forests and complex terrain, but also a multi-ethnic province, and borders several major vassal states in the south of the Qing Dynasty, the situation is extremely complicated, and riots and rebellions often occur.
Lao Wu has been settled in southern Yunnan for nearly ten years, and the general generals are accustomed to a comfortable and leisurely life, such as the suppression of rebellions and riots, such thankless tasks, and hard work and not much military merit, is a job that veteran generals regard as a daunting task.
This is also the main reason why Lin Sha took the initiative to lead troops to exterminate the Red Wolf Mountain bandits last time, and General Hu Dabing simply signed the order to open the army.
The suppression of bandits is just a trivial matter, and the real headache is the Tusi in various parts of Yunnan Province.
These toasts are all like the existence of the Tusi on their own territory, and the current policy of the imperial court towards the Tusi is basically based on wooing and appeasing, which further fuels the arrogance of the Tusi.
Moreover, the Tusi territory is generally in the high mountains and dense forests, not only the roads are difficult to travel and the outside world is not smooth, but also most of the people under the rule are Miao people-dominated young people's society, once there is instability, it is difficult for the government to respond in time, and it is very easy to form a beacon fire.
What's even more troublesome is that Miao Min's wild nature is difficult to change, and they are all fierce and unusually fierce, and they are in the mountains and dense forests of their home field, so it is really troublesome to deal with.
A general who is already in a high position naturally does not want to encounter such a hard stubble, anyway, no matter how great their military achievements are, their promotion opportunities are not many, plus years of stable life have corroded their ambitions, and such a thing as quelling the Tusi rebellion is naturally as far away as it is to hide.
Here's your chance!
After listening to the explanation of the little fat man Hu Dashao, a bold idea popped up in Lin Sha's heart, and then said with a serious face: "I want to participate in this operation to suppress the Tusi rebellion, and I hope that Hu Dashao will help me say a few more good words to your uncle......
