Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

What Zhao Ping said was correct, if a rebel army suddenly appeared to attack the city, the defense on the top of the city alone would not require much, as long as there were 5000 people, the Yan'an Mansion would definitely fall.

But who knows how many places in Yan'an Mansion will suddenly have a rebel army?

Not to mention anything else, how did Zhang Yingjin and Monk Wang from Yanchuan hook up with Gao Yingxiang?

There are more counties under the jurisdiction of Yan'an Mansion, as long as one or two more counties come here, the fun will really be great.

However, no matter whether it was Zhao Ping or Zhang Nian, they didn't realize at this time that the Huntian King Zhang Yingjin who Zhao Ping slashed with a knife was a ruthless man who beat Yanchuan, Mizhi, and Qingjian counties in the original history. He was chopped down by Zhao Ping under the city wall of Yan'an Mansion.

Of course, Emperor Chongzhen, who received the urgent report from Jin Yiwei, actually didn't know who this chaotic king Zhang Yingjin was. He just instinctively judged that this person should not be anything special based on the experience of reading martial arts novels in class when he was in school in his previous life. character of.

First, I don’t have this guy in my memory, which shows that he is not famous. Second, Hun Tianwang is such a gangster, he looks like a big boss at first glance. Look at Song Jiang, Ji Yu, what else is called Yu Qilin, Hua Monk, Which one doesn't sound much better than his bandit number of Huntianwang?

However, no matter how you say it, today can be regarded as beheading the bandits all the way and repelling the rebels, which is also something to be happy about.

Zhang Nian, who was very happy, also became generous at this time: "Commander Zhao, let's go to rest first, the government will order people to clean up the banquet, and send someone to invite Commander Zhao and all the meritorious soldiers later. "

Zhao Ping arched his hands and said to Zhang Nian: "Thank you, Mr. Futai, for your kindness. It's just that the rebels have just retreated, so it's really not suitable for drinking."

Zhang Nian thought the same way, if he drank too much, it would be troublesome for his mother's city defense, so he didn't try to persuade him any more, but said to Zhao Ping: "In this case, it's inconvenient for me to force it, and I will do it later. Send someone to send some meat and other food to the army, Commander Zhao will distribute these to the soldiers on behalf of the government."

Zhao Ping thought to himself, damn it, you know you have to rely on warriors like Lao Tzu when you are fighting?Why don't you look at me with your nostrils?

Thinking like this in his heart, but on the face he cupped his hands and said: "It must be so."

Zhang Nian in Yan'an Mansion began to win people's hearts, and Zhao Ping also went to rest by himself, but Gao Yingxiang and Wang Heshang, who had escaped, became worried.

They ran all the way to collect and disturb the defeated army, and at the end of the statistics, there were a total of nearly [-] people demolished this time!

Gao Yingxiang said distressedly: "Damn it, I still didn't expect that there are capable people in the army!"

Monk Wang also said bitterly: "Lao Zhang is gone just like that, but we can't avenge him for a while."

Gao Yingxiang nodded, originally he was worried that Monk Wang would act impulsively because he felt sorry for Zhang Yingjin's death, but now it seems that it is much better than he imagined.

After pondering for a while, Gao Yingxiang said: "No matter what you say, we have nothing to do with Yan'an Mansion in a short time."

Seeing Monk Wang's expression of approval, Gao Yingxiang said again: "Forget it, let's go fight for Anding first. Damn, wait until we meet up with Brother Wang Jiayin and then talk about the other side."

Chapter 253 Cooking Bones for Salary, Cooking Meat for Food (4-word first update) (revised)

Gao Yingxiang and Monk Wang ran all the way north with the rout army that had been harassed. They hurried to rush, but Emperor Chongzhen, who was still two days late, suddenly rushed to nothing.

Originally, when he passed the Wild Boar Gorge, Emperor Chongzhen received a battle report saying that Gao Yingxiang's rebels were attacking Yan'an Mansion.

Emperor Chongzhen, who had a young history, didn't know how Gao Yingxiang made his fortune in history, but whenever the name Gao Yingxiang was mentioned, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't restrain his excitement.

I can't help but get excited, Brother Li didn't find it, so the fuck has already gone to Gao Yingxiang, right?

Therefore, with the intention of killing Gao Yingxiang early and solving the courier brother Li earlier, Emperor Chongzhen simply rushed to Yan'an Mansion with [-] riders, and only found out that the big show was over when he arrived at the mansion.

After secretly cursing his wife, Emperor Chongzhen had no choice but to lead his troops into Yan'an Mansion—it's not to say, Yan'an Mansion chose more people than Xi'an Mansion. You have to ask about this matter.

Yan'an Mansion, in the main hall of the backyard of the government office.

After reading the secret report from the Jinyiwei Qianhu Office of Yan'an Mansion, Emperor Chongzhen looked at Zhang Nian, the magistrate of Yan'an Mansion, and Zhao Ping, the commander of the capital, standing respectfully in front of him. He knocked on the table with his fingers, and Emperor Chongzhen ordered: : "I ordered Li Yingqi, the censor, and Ma Maocai, the deputy soldier of Huguang, came to see me. I urgently ordered Du Wenhuan, the deputy general of Yansui, to come back to Yan'an mansion to see me. The troops and horses of the troops will be temporarily guarded by the Beijing camp."

Fang Zhenghua, who had been by Emperor Chongzhen's side all this time, bowed to answer, and then ordered someone to summon the people that Emperor Chongzhen had mentioned just now.

When Li Yingqi, the censor of the inspector, and Ma Maocai, the vice soldier of Huguang, came to the backyard of the governor's office to meet Emperor Chongzhen, they found that Emperor Chongzhen's expression was not good.

The two of them thumped in their hearts, and they didn't know where they had offended this master. After paying respects to Emperor Chongzhen with trepidation in their hearts, they stood aside and waited for Emperor Chongzhen to question him.

Speaking of the people present, only Zhang Nian, the magistrate of Yan'an Prefecture, was secretly happy.

This Li Yingqi didn't know what went wrong, and he offended the emperor, as long as he beat the side drums by himself, he wouldn't get rid of this person, then, who would come to play his own book?

Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen asked, "Li Yingqi?"

Li Yingqi, who had a broad body, bit the bullet and responded: "The minister is here."

Emperor Chongzhen hummed, and then said: "I see you were a Jinshi in the Bingchen period of Wanli?"

When Li Yingqi heard this, he was quite puzzled, and he didn't know why Emperor Chongzhen suddenly remembered to ask this: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I am a Jinshi in the Bingchen period of Wanli."

Emperor Chongzhen hummed again, and then asked: "You have been promoted to the censor of Shaanxi Province for a long time. Come and tell me, what is the reason for the current civil uprising? And how to solve it? "

After deliberating for a while, Li Yingqi cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, the land of Shaanxi has been suffering from severe famines for years, disaster after disaster, and it is extremely severe this year.

As far as your Majesty Yuji, from March of the first year of Chongzhen to the present, there has been no rain for several months, so that in autumn, there are three volts of drought, the seedlings are exhausted, the red wild grass is cut off, and the people are displaced.Chen Chang went out in plain clothes, and wherever he passed, hundreds of victims flocked to ask for relief.

In addition, Yi, Luo and other places in Yan'an, and Hancheng in Xi'an, etc., reported that there were connections back to Luo, and hundreds of moves were made.Looting by day, the weak prey on the strong.Gai was hungry and bored, so he took risks.Instead of starving and waiting to die, it is better to rob and live. "

Emperor Chongzhen glanced at Li Yingqi, hummed and said, "Then tell me, now Yan'an Prefecture and Xi'an Prefecture have starving people rising up, how should we deal with it?"

Li Yingqi thought for a while, then cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I believe that the Ming Dynasty has its own national laws. Even if there is a natural disaster, it is a fact that the rebellion of the bandits is true. I think it is better to go out and destroy them as soon as possible."

Emperor Chongzhen was surprised.

This Li Yingqi seems to be a gentle censor, shouldn't he plead for the people at this time?Shouldn't you ask yourself to deal with it lightly?What else can you say that only kills the head of the evil to show the mighty grace of heaven?

Fortunately, this guy directly asked the army to encircle and suppress them and wipe them out?

This extermination is not as simple as talking about it—it probably means that as long as one of the selected guys counts as one, all of them will be sent to see King Yama.

It was just an accident, but Emperor Chongzhen skipped over Li Yingqi, looked at Ma Maocai, and asked, "Where is Ma Aiqing? How do you see it?"

Ma Maocai's eyes suddenly turned red, and he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the disaster victims in Shaanxi are suffering!"

After saying bitter wow, Ma Maocai was already in tears.

Emperor Chongzhen said with no expression on his face: "What kind of torture, please tell me in detail."

Ma Maocai agreed first, then wiped away his tears and snot with his sleeve, and then he choked up and said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, the official hometown is this Yan'an Mansion, and I only returned home because of some official duties.

It was only when I came to Yan'an Mansion that I found out that since I went to see it, there has been no rain in Yan'an Mansion for a year. Until August and September this year, the people competed to pick the grass in the mountains to eat. Its grains are like chaff, and its taste is bitter and astringent. , Eating it can only prolong life.

By the end of last month, the grass had been eaten, and the hungry people had to peel off the bark to eat.Of all the trees, the elm is not good enough, and the bark of other trees is mixed for food, and its death can be slowed down a bit. "

After finishing speaking, Ma Maocai stopped crying, instead he laughed and said, "How many trees have bark outside the city now? I'm afraid that only Guanyin soil can eat the rest."

No matter how naive Emperor Chongzhen was, he knew what Avalokitesvara was.

Before Emperor Chongzhen crossed over, he had seen this thing in novels more than once. It is said that as long as he ate a little, he would be full, but within a few days, he would bloat and fall to death.

Emperor Chongzhen was thinking about Guanyin soil in his heart, but he heard Ma Maocai continue: "So far, the people are not willing to eat soil. The dead will gather together as robbers, and the people who have a little savings will be robbed by robbers. How can a person survive? Even if they report to the government, they may not be able to catch many strong people, so what if they are caught?

The most pitiful thing is, for example, there is a manure field in the west of Ansai City, where two or three babies are abandoned every morning, some weep, some scream, some call their parents, and some eat their dung.By the next morning, the abandoned son had no life, and there were some abandoned ones.
