Chapter 64: Tou Zhu Yi Thoughts

"The traitor is so rampant, he dares to go to Surabaya, what can he do, what can he do?"

The county magistrate summoned the sages in the city and asked questions frantically, but the big guys looked at each other, and there was no need to run to the city to avoid trouble if there was a way.

Since it is the governor who treats the gentry preferentially, there must be a way, so ask Governor Qian for help, as long as the divine soldiers descend from the sky, the rebels can be broken with a snap of a finger.

That's right, the governor is a leader in the literary world, a celebrity in the scholarly world, and he is clever, so there must be a way.

So what should you do before the governor sends out his troops?

It seems that there is nothing to do but defend the city.

"This Qian Qianyi is simply a pig, the Qing court started and has always slaughtered the people and expelled the homeless...... It's good that he did the opposite, took the initiative to appease the gentry, and brought these people under his own rule, which was very lively. ”

Tan Deyu laughed loudly, he has always been serious, he has been laughing, and he has never stopped.

Song Lian also laughed, "In the past, I was still thinking about how to conquer the city, but now I have figured it out, let's drive away the gentry and the lackeys of the Qing court, let them pour into the city, and eat the Qing court, and then we can get it at our fingertips." Big guy, tell me, what is this strategy called? ”

He looked around, everyone present had no idea, and finally looked at Zhu Yiyuan,

"Hey, why don't you give me a name?"

Zhu Yiyuan said with a smile: "The Qing court is used to using it, the name of the old slave is translated into Chinese as wild boar skin, and now this trick is used by Qian Qianyi in reverse, so it is better to call it a stupid pig tactic, right?" ”

"Stupid pig tactics?"

The big guy immediately slapped his thighs and laughed, and Song Lian praised: "Appropriate, appropriate!" Qian Qianyi became the leader of Shilin in vain, bent his knees to surrender to the enemy, and took the lead in shaving his hair, he was as stupid as a pig! The Qing court sent this thing over, but it was really helping us! ”

Zhu Yiyuan also smiled: "Indeed, a God-given opportunity...... Commander Tan, how many soldiers have you arranged to besiege the county seat of Surabaya now? ”

"A thousand households." Tan Deyu said simply: "Zhu Yanshi thinks it's not enough? ”

Zhu Yiyuan said: "It's not that it's not enough, but we have five thousand households in our hands, and there are so many militiamen, I think we can't be idle, we must take this opportunity to train our troops well, and let the big guys take turns outside Surabaya City for rotation training." It is rare to see such a drill that is close to actual combat, and it just sharpens our fighters. ”

This idea is desperate, Zhu Yiyuan's side has the framework of soldiers and horses, and he has also fought two big battles, but he has won a bit of a fluke, and the real combat effectiveness is still lacking......

Since the opportunity is right in front of you, how can you let it go...... From this day on, the county town of Surabaya became a training point for the rebels.

The gentry and common people in Surabaya City can also have the honor of receiving the demeanor of the Doctrine Army.

They had red buns wrapped around their heads, and they carried red banners, and they were either one or two hundred, or three or five hundred, and they bypassed the city of Surabaya.

At first, the rebels were all five or six hundred paces away, but gradually, they came within two hundred paces, and the slogans they shouted could be heard clearly.

"Expelle Hulu and restore China!"

These eight words are simply like the magic sound, the thief is so daring, this is the territory of the Qing Dynasty, and we are all loyal and good in the Qing Dynasty.

Facing the output of the riding face, Yang Zhen of the county magistrate gritted his teeth angrily, beckoned the soldiers and horses in the city, went to the city together, and prepared to go out to kill for a while.

"Even if you can't repel the thieves, rub their sharpness. In particular, it is necessary to bring in grain and grass, otherwise how can so many people in the city be able to support it? ”

Although Yang Zhen was a literati, she still found a sword, was murderous, and went to the city.

The other officials in the city also came up, and when they looked outside, they were not good.

It turned out that the rebels outside the city were practicing siege drills, and from the rebels, the first to rush out of the musketeers, they shot at a wall made of wooden planks, followed by archers, and further suppressed.

Immediately after the fire and bows and arrows were fired, there were men carrying sand and soil on their backs, rushing over, filling in the trenches and moats, and then the rebel soldiers carried the ladders and came towards the temporary wooden plank wall, and everyone attached themselves to the city, and the whole exercise ended.

Anyone can see that this is an exercise to attack the county town of Surabaya.

"Lord Zhixian, the thieves have the law to advance and retreat, cooperate tacitly, and the speed is extremely fast...... That is, even the soldiers and horses in the city, there are many times! "The thousand households in the city have an old face and tell Yang Zhen the truth.

The dignified officials and soldiers are not as formal as the thieves, which is also too ironic!

The old face is swollen.

It's just that what's even more outrageous is still to come, just under the city of Surabaya, a leader of the rebel army stood up and scolded the soldiers who participated in the drill.

Several people were also called out and asked to stand in a line.

"You are slow and uncooperative...... If this is a real siege, you may die. Do you want to come standing up and lie down? Give me all the best practice! No one is allowed to slack off. ”

The voices of the commentaries reached the head of the city of Surabaya.

Not only the magistrate, but also the gentry who fled in also had extremely strange faces at the moment...... It's so blatant, rehearsing how to siege the city, sharpening knives in front of you, what do you think of us?

Chickens and ducks to the slaughter?

"Don't let the thieves underestimate us!"

"yes, don't demoralize."

When Yang Zhen was hesitating, the dust was filled in the distance, and another rebel army appeared, and they came quickly, not only came, but also brought pancakes and steamed buns.

All the soldiers who participated in the drill received food and just sat under the city and ate it in large gulps...... Fist-sized steamed buns, bite down, that's called a fragrant!

There are also pancake rolls with green onions, which are fragrant just by looking at them.

Before I knew it, many people in the city had swallowed their saliva.

Especially those ordinary soldiers, they usually don't eat well, but now thousands of people are crowded into the city, and there is a lack of food, and they can't even eat pigs.

How can such food compare with food outside the city?

At this time, a young man rushed out from the rebels, it was Luo Yi, he rode a hundred steps away, and shouted loudly.

"Listen to the people in the city, you have no way out, Qian Qianyi, that dog traitor, is just coaxing you, he has no soldiers and horses at all. If you don't want to starve to death, hurry up and surrender to Cheng, otherwise when we kill it, there will be no eagle dogs left for the Qing court! ”

After saying it again, Luo Yi didn't give up, and actually ran around the county seat, shouting while running, which perfectly explained what it means to be arrogant.

Lao Tzu just dragged it like this, see what you can do?

Zhu Yiyuan smiled, and he walked through every thousand households. Through rapid marching, observe the state of the soldiers, solve the problems that arise, and run in the training.

Although it has not been long, there are indeed signs of rebirth.

I really have to be grateful to Qian Qianyi, otherwise where would I have such a good training opportunity.

Zhu Yiyuan decided to increase his efforts, while continuing to arrange for the rebels to train around Surabaya, and intimidate the people in the city so that they would not dare to come out.

At the same time, they also arranged for people from the farmer's community to contact local farmers in Surabaya County to win support.

Some time ago, Zhu Yiyuan's action to rent the landlord's Confucian land is still continuing, and many villages have really not paid it and have been dragging it out.

After Zhu Yiyuan entered Surabaya, these ordinary people had a backbone and came to comfort them. All kinds of food sent here, according to Zhu Yiyuan's instructions, must be purchased at market prices.

For a time, it attracted more people to come to trade.

The outside of the city is bustling, and the city is bleak and desolate.

Blocked by a wall, the price of food has fallen by more than ten times.

How do you live?

The group of poor scholars who entered the city a few days ago got together. They felt that Zhu Yiyuan couldn't grow up, and wanted to escape and go to the governor.

As a result, he was surrounded in the county town and couldn't get out.

"The twenty taels of silver I brought have been spent, and tomorrow I will run out of cooking."

Another scholar said bitterly: "I carried a bag of food, but I couldn't find a place to live, so I slept in the temple and woke up in the morning, when the food was stolen." ”

There is also a scholar who is even more miserable, "I came to join my uncle, and they actually closed their doors...... People are warm and cold, and the world is hot and cold. Although the Zhu thief is not good, but in the end he has the heart of loving the people, he is an irrelevant old woman, and he will also patiently persuade, in the past, I thought that this person was hypocritical and hypocritical, and now, now I am looking forward to having such a hypocritical and hypocritical person! ”

……

More than a dozen scholars became more and more angry the more they talked, and finally, a small man suddenly rose, "Everyone, why don't we vote for Zhu?" ”
