Chapter XIII Post-War 2

As a last resort, under the persecution of the governor, the prefect of Yan'an sent Yan'an Mansion and 2,000 soldiers who could fight to encircle and suppress the rebel army, but the rebel army was not vegetarian, and when they saw the main force of officers and soldiers coming, they would not fight with you, so they would run to the mountain, take you around in circles, and not fight with you.

When the officers and soldiers are gone, they will be sent to other places to deal with other rebel armies, and then they will come out and attack the county seat again. As a result, the officers and soldiers have become firefighters, tired of running for their lives, chasing this one today, and chasing that tomorrow, but the results are not ideal.

Not only did not eliminate the rebel army, but on the contrary, after a long period of fighting, let the rebel army abandon the old and weak, leaving behind all the elite soldiers, making the rebel army stronger and stronger, and finally in July this year, Wang Jiayin's rebel army department, his general named Huanghu Zhang Zhongxian designed an ambush and defeated the officers and soldiers, so that Zhang Zhongxian's name was passed on to the rebel army.

The prestige of the rebel army grew again. As a result of this victory, the offensive and defensive forces of the rebel army and the official army of Yan'an Prefecture were completely transformed, and the official army of Yan'an Prefecture was fully on the defensive, and the rebel army attacked various county towns and towns in the form of pushing snowballs, becoming more and more powerful.

The prefect of Yan'an, Shaanxi Province, reported to the imperial court and poked out this big basket, so that the imperial court knew that there was a large-scale civil unrest in northern Shaanxi.

On top of the imperial court, let Emperor Chongzhen, who had just solved Wei Zhongxian and was in a good mood. When he saw the folds submitted by Shaanxi, the angry Emperor Chongzhen scolded, but fortunately, at this time, Emperor Chongzhen was not too disappointed in the officials, plus Yue Hesheng had someone in the court who was easy to do, and gave Chongzhen a few more good words in the imperial court.

Yue Hesheng, the governor of Shaanxi, received the holy decree, and had no choice but to summon Qingyang, Yulin, Ganquan, Yinchuan, and other soldiers and horses, a total of 10,000 capable soldiers, ready to exterminate the rebellious people.

But by chance, the border army of Guyuan Town, due to lack of food, mutiny, killed the guerrillas, the general soldiers, and other bosses, and then took the opportunity to break through the state treasury of Guyuan Town, plundered the state treasury of Guyuan Town, and scattered separately.

With the addition of the rebels, the power of the two kings increased dramatically for a while, and they became more and more powerful, making it more difficult for the imperial court to control. At the same time, it initially broke away from the peasant army as the main body of the army, and joined many officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers joined with weapons, so that the rebel army had the foundation to fight against the officers and soldiers.

Guyuan Town is one of the important towns of the nine sides, is the place where the governor of the three sides opened the palace, and its geographical location is after the three important towns of Yansui, Ningxia and Yinchuan in the north of Shaanxi, and Yansui, Ningxia, and Yinchuan are the same three important towns of the nine sides.

The trilateral governor is equivalent to the commander-in-chief of the military region in the future, dispatching the defense of each town against Mongolia, dispatching the towns to cooperate with the defense, and also responsible for handling civil affairs, and the scope of its rights includes Shaanxi, Shanxi and other places.

Now due to the Guyuan mutiny, the governor of the three sides, Wu Zhiwang, fled in joy, and could only find Yue Hesheng, who had a heavy army, to rescue.

In the face of Shangguan's call for help, Yue Hesheng had no choice but to hand over the officers and soldiers who had not yet covered their heat to Wu Zhiwang to take them to quell the rebellion. However, it also made the entire Qingyang Prefecture and the entire local forces north of Shaanxi humble opinion.

Now the prefect of Qingyang was told that Qingyang County was breached, and the old man of the Dong family was hanged, so he was naturally furious, you must know that the old man of the Dong family gave birth to a good son Dong Wensheng, but the official of the imperial court is a member of the four grades, if he knows about the affairs of the family, he will definitely participate in the book.

However, the prefect is not very afraid in his heart, after all, he has people in the court, and if there is really anything, he just needs to go up and down, but at that time, he will have a lot less money on his body, after all, if he wants someone to do things, he still needs money to open the way.

Although he is not afraid, but Dong Tianqi's death, he must also give Dong Wensheng an explanation, otherwise he will always hold a grudge, as the old saying goes, it is better to settle a grievance than to settle it. But what's bad now is that the government doesn't have any soldiers in its hands now, which is a bad thing.

But the only good news is that there are no lawless people like Wang Er and Wang Jiayin in this mansion.

You must know that the chaotic people in Qingyang County this time are only no less than 1,000 people, if there are soldiers in their hands, how can they be so troubled and directly send troops to exterminate them. But now that Master Ben has no soldiers in his hands, it seems that he can only arrange for Huachi County, Ning County, Zhenyuan County and Heshui County around Qingyang County to raise troops to encircle and suppress. There are 500 people in one county and 2,000 people in four counties, and at the same time, Qingyang Mansion also sent 200 elite soldiers, bringing the only five tiger squatting cannons in Qingyang Mansion and their own 100 musket ropes to fight with the rebellious people, so that they can know the power of this mansion.

Tiger squat artillery Ming Dynasty field artillery, weighing 36 pounds, is a small artillery, with a range of 500 meters, the shell is a bulk shell, and it has strong power. and the red-coated cannon of the Ming Dynasty, as well as the general cannon is one of the three major cannons of the Ming Dynasty.

Lin Qingnai is the general manager of Qingyang Mansion, with 3,000 people under his management, and his strength is very strong, there are not only 1,000 officers and soldiers but also more than 200 family members. The scale of the military rations given by the imperial court was 3,000 people, but at the end of the Ming Dynasty, corruption was commonplace, and the quota of 3,000 people, 1,500 people were powerful enough to eat food for soldiers, and these 1,500 people were basically lacking in the sound every month, and it was normal for a few months and half a year to not make a sound, and if it sounded, the soldiers could get only one-tenth of the money and food in their hands.

Of course, there is no accident in Lin Qingjun, and there has been no sound in the army for half a year. Some time ago, the Guyuan border army made a lot of noise, broke through the state treasury, plundered one side, and joined the thieves, which greatly increased the power of the thieves. In order to send troops to fight the thieves, the governor asked the gentry for 5,000 taels of money and grain, so that the army could be opened.

You must know that the 5,000 grains distributed that day were exploited at various levels, and the soldiers under their hands were less than three or two.

Thinking of this time, Lin Qing thought about where to send troops again? But there are only some family members around him to protect him, and the soldiers who can fight in the army have all been taken away by the governor.

Entering the prefect's yamen, Lin Tian knelt on the ground with his fists clenched and said loudly: President Qian, Lin Qing, knocked to see the prefect's lord.

The prefect looked at Lin Tian, who was kneeling on the ground, and replied with a snort.

But Lin Qing seemed to be used to it, and bent down to listen to the prefect's lecture with his fists clenched.

After a long time, the prefect finished reading the paperwork on the table, took a sip of tea and said lightly: Mr. Lin Qian, there are Diao people in Qingyang County who have rebelled, and just broke through the county seat a few days ago, you lead two hundred people to eliminate them In addition, I will send a total of 2,000 people from Huachi County, Ning County, Zhenyuan County and Heshui County and four counties to cooperate with you.

Lin Qing was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly clasped his fists and thanked the prefect for his grace.

Again, this shows that it does not mean that the generals at the end of the Ming Dynasty love to fight, you must know that the generals at the end of the Ming Dynasty are basically surrenderers. There is mainly interest in this, so Lin Qing knew that he would be so happy to deal with the rebel army at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

In the eyes of the generals at the end of the Ming Dynasty, for the peasant army that had just begun to revolt, for them, they were all military merits, you must know that the peasant uprising is divided into three stages, the first stage is the stage when the peasant army has just begun to revolt, at that time everyone is bare-handed, what weapons are there, and some are also used as weapons for the agricultural role brought by the family, or there are a few knives and guns and a few pieces of armor in the hands of the county Chen, but for most of the rebel army are bare-handed. In this case, it is generally a few hundred people of the Ming army chasing after thousands of people in the city.

And at this time, the peasant uprising had just entered the county seat, and it was the richest time, so could it not be rich to rob all the rich people in the county?

Defeated the rebels, their good wealth is not mine.

At this time, the rebel army, Zai Ming Army, is a piece of fat in the eyes of the Ming army, and if they are defeated, it means that they can be promoted and make a fortune, can they not be active?

There is also the end of the Ming Dynasty, the military discipline of the Ming army was corrupt, and they would often kill good people and risk meritorious deeds, and they would go to small villages to release pressure and vent their fun.

There is also a second type, with the participation of a large number of officers and soldiers, after several years of development, the combat effectiveness of the old battalion is not necessarily weaker than that of the officers and soldiers. It can be tough with the officers and soldiers.

The last one is the one that belongs to Li Zicheng who swept the world.

The next day, before dawn, Lin Qing took his two hundred families to Huachi County.

Huachi County belongs to Qingyang City, Shaanxi Province, located in the east of Shaanxi, northeast of Qingyang City, bordering Zhidan, Wuqi and Dingbian in the northeast, and Ningxian, Qingcheng and Heshui in the southwest.

After two days of hurrying, Lin Qing and his party finally arrived at Heshui County.

Lin Qing let himself personally guard most of them, and then stationed near the city gate, and led a few henchmen straight to the county government to meet the county magistrate.

When he arrived at the yamen of the county, he was stopped by the slaves of the county, and Lin Qing said it badly, but it didn't work. In the end, he had no choice but to take out a tael of silver as a bribe, which made the servant of the county nod with satisfaction and went in to spread the word.

Lin Qing arrived at the county magistrate's bedroom! Standing at the door, he bent down respectfully and said in a low voice: Qingyang Mansion marked a thousand general Lin Qing to see the county magistrate.

Lin Qing, who had been waiting outside the house for a long time, did not listen to the answer of the magistrate, but the laughter of men and men came from inside the house.

Hearing this voice, the corners of Lin Qing's mouth twitched, and there was a look of disgust on his face.

For a whole hour, Lin Qing's heart was on fire when he saw the county lord slowly open the door to meet him.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the gentry were mostly good men, and at this time, boys were kept in captivity, and men would not only not be made fun of, but would also be called famous and gentlemen.

In history, one of the bosses of the Donglin Party, Hou Sui, is known for his good manhood, once he met Zuo Yuliang, who made a mistake in the military camp and was punished, seeing his beautiful face, it means that your kid sells an ass to the old man, and the old man guarantees that you are fine.
