0450, Dongting Accident
divid="chapterContentWapper">
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas": "One hundred and twenty miles to the southeast, it is said that the mountain of Dongting, the second daughter of the emperor lives there, and it is often in the river abyss, the wind of Li and Yuan, and the abyss of Xiaoxiang."
"Zhuangzi Heavenly Fortune": "Emperor Zhang Xianchi's joy is in the wilderness of Dongting", calling Dongting a plain.
Once upon a time, the waters of Hunan, Yuan, and Li converged with the Yangtze River near Dongting Mountain (now Junshan), and the Dongting Lake area was just a plain with a network of rivers.
Later, the so-called "Dongfu Garden" around Junshan formed a large lake, which was called Dongting Lake, and the initiator was the traitor Zhang Juzheng.
During the Jiajing and Longqing periods, in order to protect the safety of his hometown Jiangling, Zhang Juzheng adopted the policy of "giving up the south to save the north" under the banner of maintaining the "Xianling" (in Anlu, Hubei), and built a sandalwood embankment on the north bank of the Jingjiang River, forcing the water and sand of the Yangtze River to enter the Dongting Lake area from Jingnan.
The flood season of the Yangtze River lasts for half a year, from the peach blossom flood at the turn of spring and summer to the autumn flood in mid-September.
For his own selfishness, Zhang Juzheng disregarded the country's social welfare, so that Hunan, the land of fish and rice, did not play a role at all.
Hunan did not play a role, and the annual rice production of the imperial court was naturally insufficient, and the treasury stocks could not be abundant. Once a large-scale natural disaster strikes, the big thing will go.
No matter how many things Zhang Juzheng has done that are worthy of boasting, it is not wrong to say that he has brought disaster to the country and the people.
Starting from the annual peach blossom flood, Hunan will inevitably become a country, and large rice fields will sink to the bottom, so that "the people are all fish and turtles, drowning hundreds of thousands every year, and countless people are waiting to be fed."
After the autumn flood every year, winter arrives immediately, which has caused the ancient wonder of "Hunan Fish and Rice Country is full of disaster victims".
Because of this, Zhang Juzheng was later "counterattacked, digging graves and whipping corpses", and the people of Hunan all applauded, which of course made sense.
Heaven can be deceived, earth can be deceived, the king can be deceived, the court can be deceived, and the people cannot be deceived. This is the fate of Zhang Juzheng.
Xiong Chu decided to rush to the area of Dongting Lake immediately, not to find out why the area around Junshan had become a lake, but to save his life and save the life of an old man.
This emergency northward trip was originally decided by Xiong Chu before he left Yunnan, and it was also a strategic means for the unification of military divisions and thousands of trainings.
The reason why such a means was used was that the key problem was Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of the five provinces, at least I thought it was Zhu Xieyuan.
Because after Zhu Xieyuan killed Hao Chongming and An Bangyan, he accepted the surrender of Shuixi Tusi An, and the war to quell the rebellion was basically over.
Then he folded to the imperial court, imitating Zhuge Liang's rhetoric back then, and put forward nine reasons for not setting up guards in Shuixi, not setting up county officials, and not arranging troops.
Now that the biggest threat has been removed, Prince Xiong thinks he can leave in peace and go to the legendary Grand View Fort to see what is going on.
Before Prince Xiong left, he left the future development policy for the general Wan Lian of Zhengnan, and the basic principle is to be cautious:
"Rest the banner and recuperate the people; reward farming, store grain and prepare for famine; trade to the north and plunder cattle to the west; prudently expand the army and observe the enemy's situation; wait for the opportunity to make a decision. ”
In order for Wan Lian of the Zhengnan General's Mansion to develop steadily and secretly, it is necessary to divert the attention of the imperial court.
The best target that can attract the attention of the young emperor Chongzhen is, of course, the rebellious Xiong Chu to appear in another place and make some small movements.
With this understanding in mind, Xiong Chucai decided to immediately move eastward and prepare to implement the strategic plan of "repairing the plank road in the open and Chen Cang in the dark".
After arriving at Daguan Fort, through the explanations of Guò Miao Sanguan and Peng Wuying, Xiong Chu knew that the entire north had been in chaos, and Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of the five provinces, could not continue to leave soldiers and horses to grind in Yunnan.
The seriously wounded scout was a small leader of Fan Liancheng's scout battalion.
After Xiong Chu used his internal strength to save him, he told a strange story.
It turned out that Huang Taiji broke through the pass of the Great Wall in the north of the Beijing Division, and the soldiers pointed directly at the Beijing Division, and of course the world shook.
Since the whole world was shaken, Shanxi was so close that it naturally shook, so it alarmed a person.
This person is the former Shuozhou City garrison general who has been removed: Zhang Ying.
Zhang Ying doesn't care who becomes the emperor, and his only goal is to be loyal to the Ming court.
Now that the Jurchen Tartars were so bold and reckless that they dared to attack the Great Wall with light cavalry, Zhang Ying suddenly took the case.
It's a pity that it's useless to be angry, because he is now alone, and King Qinjing alone is useless.
A military general is a tendon at a critical time, and Zhang Ying is no exception.
He was now furious, and he was determined to fight to the death with the Jurchen Tartars, so he broke into the Shuozhou City garrison barracks to find the prison soldiers.
The prison army has not yet received the order of King Qin to enter Beijing, so of course he cannot agree. Besides, Zhang Ying is still a guilty person, and it is impossible to hand him over military power.
Now there are a lot of people who are rebelling everywhere, in case Zhang Ying leads the army to rebel, then no one can guarantee it, right?
However, Zhang Ying has been running the Shuozhou City garrison barracks for more than ten years, and the following generals were all raised by him.
Although the prison army did not agree to send troops, this did not affect Zhang Ying's incursion into the barracks to make a "seditious speech":
"I tell you that the emperor has been surrounded by the Jurchen Tartars, and now the situation is precarious. Who the fuck is not afraid of death, fight with me outside the Great Wall of Xuanfu now, and fight to the death with the Jurchen Tartars!"
Not to mention, the guys who are soldiers like to be hot-headed, and they were really taken away by Zhang Ying More than 600 people.
Outside the city of Xuanfu, he burned down two military camps of the Jurchen Tartars, and as a result, Zhang Ying's headquarters was surrounded by the enemy's army, and finally all of them were killed.
Although Zhang Ying died in battle, he transferred troops privately, and he exceeded the system to seize military power, and he had already committed the crime of bullying the king, and he wanted to punish the nine clans.
Zhang Ying once said that he could lose his head for the court and the emperor, but the descendants of the Zhang family only have one single seedling, and they can't let the ancestor Zhang Liao break off.
Therefore, before Zhang Ying set out on the expedition, he ordered his son Zhang Chengzong to go south and go to Yunnan to find "Jingde Villa". As long as you find one of Wan Lian and Xiong Chu, you will be guaranteed.
To say that Zhang Ying is really far-sighted, he knows that sooner or later he will have that day, so he has done a lot of foreshadowing in advance.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Chengzong led more than 300 or 600 generals to come out of Fenglingdu, and he was immediately involved in a situation of war and chaos.
Relying on a iron spear in his hand, and the courage to resist Xiong Kaishan's three hammers, Zhang Chengzong took more than 360 generals to fight and walk all the way.
Whether it was the rebel army of the displaced people or the official army blocking the road, Zhang Chengzong did not admit it.
That's really a god blocking and killing a god, and an immortal comes to punish an immortal.
This way to kill, but it turned out that it was not good to go to Shangnan Funiu Mountain.
"My lord, Zhang Gongzi was discovered by our scout camp as soon as he arrived at Funiu Mountain. After secretly testing the joint, he learned that he was going south to find the lord and a Wanlian. ”
"But the smoke is not in the dust, and there are three ways of people blocking the way in this ghost place, namely the Collapse of the Sky, the King of the Mixed World, and the Old Hui Hui Three Righteous Army, with a total of more than 90,000 people. ”
Although Zhang Gongzi only had more than 360 people, he had more than 600 war horses, and they were all good horses in 10,000 miles, and the eyes of those rebels were red now. ”
"Lao Huihui is the most powerful, and there are more than 60,000 people under him, so he wants to incorporate Zhang Gongzi. But Zhang Gongzi ignored him at all, and of course he didn't talk about it. ”
"There are more than 10,000 people under the hands of the king of the world, and they actually want to rob openly, but they are defeated and lost by Zhang Gongzi. Now they are surrounded by heavy troops, just to rob the horses. ”
"Zhang Gongzi single-handedly sent me out to find rescuers. After all, the grain and grass they carried were extremely limited, and the number of those rebels was so large that they couldn't be killed, and they couldn't rush out at all. ”
After the scout finished speaking in one breath, Miao Sanguan, Peng Wuying, Yuan Liqing, Zhang Rulian, Wu Shenghao and others were as ignorant as if they were listening to a book from heaven.
It was Lan'er who hurriedly told the succinct words about the series of accidents that occurred when she and others entered Shanxi, and then emphasized: "Zhang Chengzong must be rescued! If it weren't for his son Zhang Ying, my brother would not be where he is today." ”
Xiong Chu didn't speak, not that he didn't want to save people, but he was planning how to save people.
Now far away from thousands of mountains and rivers, even if the imperial court does not interfere, it is unrealistic to lead a large number of people over.
Peng Wuying found that Xiong Chu was going back and forth, and immediately thought of the reason: "Lord, it is definitely not possible to bring troops over from here, but there is still a base on the side of Dongting Lake, and Shen Xiyue is in charge there, so it should be able to draw more than 300 elite soldiers." If used well, the combination of inside and outside should be able to save people. ”
Xiong Chu shook his head: "If it is to rescue people, it is not difficult, I can do it alone." Isn't this simple? I infiltrated the camp of the righteous army alone, directly arrested the old man who returned to the sky, broke into the sky, and mixed the king, and then changed the generals. ”
"The question is not how to save people, but how to ensure that the secrets of Daguan Fort are not revealed. The policy we had discussed before should be implemented as soon as possible, and the elite troops should be gradually transferred to the south to establish a new base, so that we can coordinate with Wan Lian in the west. ”
"If you want to have a certain level of self-preservation, you need to keep a group of skilled people here, and I'm thinking about who will stay to keep your backyard safe. ”
Speaking of this, Prince Xiong's gaze swept over the faces of Lan'er, Yan Erniang, Mandaili, Hu Meiniang and others.
"Back then, the White Phoenix Guard was divided into two, led by Lan'er and Hu Meiniang, and their task was to protect the inner house. Yan Erniang and Mandaili led twelve female soldiers to go with me and rescued that Zhang Chengzong. That's a tiger general, almost the same as Xiong Kaishan. ”
"Old Master, according to the samples I brought back, you should immediately organize a craftsman camp and start counterfeiting. The flintlock firearms, red-coated cannons, and mines were all made by a group of evil Taoist priests in Yunnan, and they were very powerful. ”
"Peng Wuying, you have a legal status as a magistrate, and you can deal with King Gui as much as possible. When appropriate, it is also okay to bribe some people. ”
"But," said this, Xiong Chu's eyes froze, and a cold light suddenly appeared: "If they deceive people too much, then first take Guiyang Prefecture in the southeast, and then directly turn against Hengzhou." ”
"We have our own big things to do, and we must not lose too much in front of these unfilial descendants. Now facing the critical moment of the destruction of the country and the family, Zhu Changying actually squandered it and made this place full of victims, which is simply dying!"
The bear chu showed his attitude and immediately set off. Unexpectedly, as soon as the Grand View Fort came out, an unexpected change occurred.
Even a character like Miao Sanguan who has unpredictable opportunities did not expect that things would change beyond imagination, and Xiong Chu did not expect that the situation would be completely out of control.
