In the evening, school is dismissed.

Pang Chunlai was packing up his textbooks, and Zhao Han suddenly walked over and whispered: "Sir, the Tartars have broken through, and the imperial court is eight hundred miles away from the king of Qin." ”

"What?" Pang Chunlai looked up suddenly, his face in disbelief.

Although Pang Chunlai is a native of Liaodong, although his family is ruined, and although his homeland is lost, in Pang Chunlai's mind, there is nothing to fear about the Houjin regime, at most it is just a Tatar and Warat.

He has always believed that even if the Ming Dynasty was to die, it would be due to the corruption of the government and the peasant uprising, and the Later Jin regime had no hope.

This is because Liaodong is also plagued by the Xiaoice River, and the social productive forces cannot develop at all.

Moreover, the structure of the Houjin regime was loose, and the Eight Banners system was not perfect, so there were a bunch of barbarians who could only rob. They robbed not only the Han Chinese, but also other tribes, and the savage Jurchens were robbed very badly.

Really, the ethnic minorities in Liaodong are constantly rebelling, because the Later Jin rule is too brutal.

Even the tribes that returned to Houjin would be subjected to two or three conquests, which was simply inexplicable. If there is a shortage of food, they will grab food, and if they lack people, they will rob people, and many savage Jurchen tribes are nostalgic for the Ming Dynasty.

By the time Pang Chunlai left Liaodong, the Later Jin regime was already showing signs of internal collapse.

But he was slow to obtain information, and he didn't know that Huang Taiji was in power, so he engaged in a set of "Tiancong New Deal" to pull Houjin back from the brink of collapse.

At this time, the Houjin, and the Houjin when Pang Chunlai was in Liaodong, have undergone a qualitative mutation!

Zhao Han said: "The Tartars have really broken through, and the governor of Jiangxi intends to serve the king of Qin." ”

Pang Chunlai shook his head again and again, and complained: "Jiangxi is a fart king, and when Wei Zhaocheng arrives in the capital, the Tartars will be snatched home." This good calculation can be used to collect money in the name of King Qin, and second, it can show its loyalty and bravery. When the time comes, there will be no need to fight a single battle, and you will be able to get silver and be appreciated by the emperor. ”

"It's a little clever indeed." Zhao Han sincerely admired, no wonder the surname Wei was able to be promoted to eight levels in a row.

Pang Chunlai thought carefully and said: "First, the Tartars will definitely not be able to break through the Jingshi; Second, the Gyeonggi states and counties will be ravaged; Third, Yuan Chonghuan, the Liaodong Economic Strategy, is going to be unlucky; Fourth, the Donglin Party cabinet is afraid of falling. ”

Zhao Han looked at this master, couldn't hide his surprise, and shouted in his heart!

Pang Chunlai's information came from the Tang Daily, and the Tang Daily in May this year completely exposed Chongzhen's political intentions.

The emperor took the opportunity of Jingcha to demote, recall, exile, and dismiss nearly 200 Beijing officials, and promoted dozens of science and Taoist officials, plus the previous cleanup of more than 200 eunuchs, Chongzhen has completely controlled the situation in the court.

At least, Chongzhen felt like he was in control.

The next step is to clean up the Donglin Party cabinet, and the Tartar break just provides a good reason.

Chongzhen really wants to work hard, and can't wait to sweep away the decline, but unfortunately the steps are too big. Many of the young officials he promoted only knew how to talk indiscriminately, and their ability was not as good as that of the Donglin Party.

The master and apprentice sat and looked at each other, silent.

Suddenly, Zhao Han asked, "Sir, what is a chivalry?" ”

Pang Chunlai said disdainfully: "It's just a person who violates the law and prohibition, and there is no way to take it." ”

"Brother, it's time to eat!" Fei Chun shouted suddenly.

"Come on!"

After dinner, Zhao Han returned directly to the dormitory, and sat down in a daze after grinding ink.

He suddenly wanted to write a martial arts novel, and the general plot was copied, with all kinds of private goods mixed in. It is necessary to promote the feelings of the family and the country, to promote the national integrity, and at the same time call on those chivalrous guests to serve the country and the people.

The writing should not be too formal, otherwise the general public will not be able to read it.

The writing should not be too modern, otherwise it will not conform to the reading habits of the ancients, and it will be considered vulgar.

The style of "Water Margin" is just right.

The most suitable for adaptation is naturally "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

But when Zhao Han studied the ink, he found that the plot seemed to be forgotten, and he seemed to remember a lot, and the novel and the various versions of the TV series were stupidly indistinguishable.

But no matter what, the supporting characters of the miscellaneous fish in it must have forgotten most of it, and they can only make it up by themselves.

There are also beggars, who can't be written too decently, who let the brothers and sisters be bullied by beggars!

……

However, he said that the fourth young master, Fei Yinghui, had failed to recruit troops in his hometown, so he went straight to Nanchang with the silver, and found that Wei Zhaocheng had already led the troops to set off.

He hurried and hurried, and finally caught up in Nankang Mansion.

The Jiangxi general soldier happened to be sick and lay in Nankang Mansion and refused to leave. After delaying for many days, Wei Zhaocheng couldn't wait, so he led his troops to continue to set off.

The general soldiers of Nangan did not come, saying that the bandits in Nangan were seriously affected and could not leave for a while.

Under the command of Governor Wei Zhaocheng, there were only 2,000 tofu soldiers provided by Nanchang Wei, and more than 1,000 villagers were recruited, as well as more than 100 bandits brought by Fei Yinghui. All the way by boat, plus the shipwrights and sailors, the strength barely reached 4,000 people.

They didn't have much food and grass with them, and they ran out of food halfway through.

Fortunately, he ran fast by boat, and after arriving in Nanjing, Wei Zhaocheng received financial support from Chen Yuting.

Chen Yuting is the boss of the Donglin Party and the mentor of Wei Zhaocheng. Moreover, he has presided over Nanjing Jingcha for two consecutive years, and he is a powerful faction that can speak.

After getting some grain and grass in Nanjing, King Qin's army continued to hurry, and when he passed through the Huai'an Pass, he was asked for a toll by the head of the pass.

The soldiers and soldiers were overjoyed, and took the opportunity to turn their faces and rob the Huai'an wharf. took advantage of the fact that the Protector Army had not yet assembled, and hurriedly ran away, and they all made money because of this.

Chongzhen three years, early February.

The army of King Qinwang of Jiangxi arrived in Dezhou by boat and encountered a large number of bandits from the White Lotus Sect.

There is no fraud this time, there are really White Lotus Sect bandits.

Because the Tartars broke through the gates, the North Zhili became a pot of porridge, and the prefectures and counties were looted by the Tartars and the official army. The White Lotus cultists took the opportunity to make trouble, stretching across the three provinces of Beizhi, Henan, and Shandong, blocking the Caoyun channel.

Wei Zhaocheng was a little scared and wanted to return to Dongchang Mansion.

Fei Yinghui was eager to try: "Don't panic in Futai, wait for me to destroy the thief!" ”

"Virtuous brothers, thieves are overwhelming, and it may be difficult to defeat them." Wei Zhaocheng hurriedly dissuaded.

"Some thieves, what are you afraid of?" Fei Yinghui laughed.

That night, Fei Yinghui personally led more than 100 thieves, and selected 200 villagers, promised gold and silver, and landed on the shore for a night attack.

The White Lotus Sect outside the city was in turmoil, and the governor of Texas took the opportunity to lead his troops out of the city, and the inside and outside should join forces to defeat tens of thousands of White Lotus Sect bandits - in fact, they were a group of refugees who had just taken up arms.

Wei Zhao rewarded the soldiers and selected young and strong prisoners as soldiers, and the strength of the Qinwang army in Jiangxi reached 5,000.

By the time they arrived in Tongzhou, the war had long since ended, and the Tartars had plundered and retreated to Liaodong.

The army of King Qinwang of Jiangxi was required to immediately evacuate Beizhili.

That bastard court, don't give a reward, don't say anything, and don't provide military rations.

And Wei Zhaocheng only knew how to bribe the ministers of the court, give his own merits to the king of diligence, and bring them to several generals to repay the merits, regardless of the life or death of his subordinates.

On the way back, the army ran out of grain and grass in Shandong, and angrily disembarked and plundered the towns.

Just grab it all the way back!

This time King Qin is like a farce.

Zhang Honggong, the general soldier of Shanxi, was ordered to be stationed in Tongzhou on the first day, Changping on the second day, and Liangxiang on the third day.

Such a frequent change of guard is only because on the day of the arrival of the army, the imperial court does not need to provide grain and grass.

The Shanxi soldiers rescued the car for thousands of miles, changed the guard in three places in three days, and did not get a single ration. The soldiers were angry and plundered the towns, and the court imprisoned the governor of Shanxi and the general soldiers. The 5,000 elite border troops scattered in a hurry, and after fleeing back to Shanxi, they either joined the peasant army or occupied the mountains to become bandits.

Wu Zimian, the general soldier of Yansui, in the name of King Qin, blackmailed the soldiers who were unwilling to join the guard, and deducted food and salaries, and stole and sold military horses. During the march, many of the soldiers fled, and the governor Zhang Mengjing died of grief.

The army of King Qinwang in Gansu did not receive the opening fee, and was urged to march in a hurry by the commander, and the soldiers and horses were tired to death.

As a result, there was a mutiny in Gansu Town, and the soldiers killed the chief officer, robbed the food and salary, and returned to their hometown. was suppressed halfway, some of them continued to serve the king, and some of them returned to their hometowns to defend the border.

This series of riotous operations not only failed to kill the Tartars, but instead collapsed the Northwest Frontier Army.

The elite of the border armies in Shanxi and Shaanxi were lost, and the peasant uprisings spread rapidly.

Even, in some places, the main force of the rebel army was the fleeing border army. The participation of the elite border troops in the uprising made the peasant army's combat strength increase dramatically, and it was no longer chased and beaten as it was last year.

The north has changed, and the south of the Yangtze River is still prosperous.

Although Jiangxi suffered a small disaster, it was generally normal, except for a slight failure in the summer grain harvest.

Zhao Han still reads, practices martial arts, and learns the art of war every day, and by the way, he writes "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in the style of "Water Margin".

When King Qin's army returned to Jiangxi, Zhao Han was already twelve years old and thirteen years old.

There are still 14 years before Chongzhen hanged himself!
