I, the Ming Dynasty, can still save me

Chapter 217: Send troops to Dishui Village (2nd update)

Chapter 217: Send troops to Dishui Village (second update)
Luo Qianxiang was fooling Xue Youshou and Ruduan in such a way, which made the envoys on the side sneer when they heard it.

I thought to myself that Luo Qianxiang is really stupid. He still thinks about his spring and autumn dream of sitting on a mountain and watching tigers fight. Does he have such strength?

"Sir General, the imperial army is gathered together. Even if you add a mere 1 people, it is just a mantis trying to act as a chariot. You will definitely not be afraid. Now that you have abandoned the secret and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, not only will the imperial court not hold you accountable, but you will also be promoted to a higher level. Damn it." Your wife, children, and children will also be protected, otherwise when the imperial court defeats Sheyin, you may not have a chance to surrender."

Luo Qianxiang was silent when he heard the words, and his face suddenly turned livid. The messenger's words obviously meant that he was too ignorant, and he also heard the threat in them.

Seeing that Luo Qianxiang was silent, the envoy knew that this person must have been stabbed in a sore spot by him, and thought that now he had to provoke him again to make him see the reality clearly and give him a step down.

After thinking about it, he stood up and said to Luo Qianxiang in a neither humble nor arrogant manner:

"My lord's concern is simply that the leader of the thieves treats you very kindly. If you submit to the imperial court, wouldn't it mean that others will say that you are heartless and unjust, and that you will be accused of being ruthless and unjust, and will trap you in an unkind and unjust place. In fact, I think your lord is very Don't worry too much, what you did is not harming the She family, but saving them and allowing their incense to continue."

Luo Qianxiang was speechless when he was retorted by the envoy just now. He knew the consequences of both ends. No matter who wins, he will not let him go. The envoy was right. He knew the strength of Yongning Bing. He is a new recruit and cannot defeat the imperial troops.

Then he saw the messenger solemnly saying that he was trying to save the She family by bringing order to the chaos, which made him interested, so he followed the messenger's words and asked:
"how you said that?"

"The She family's rebellion is a serious crime that has implicated the nine clans. Logically speaking, everyone should be killed to avoid future troubles. But the She family is a Yongning family after all, so the governor has a good life and thinks that after the She family is destroyed, , in Yongning, the land was changed and a prefecture and county was established. The She family would also be deprived of their land and official positions, leaving a branch to show the imperial court's great kindness and not wanting to kill them all.

But this was just Governor Zhu's intention. Mr. Xu, the governor of Sichuan, had always opposed it and felt that it would be better to kill them all.

Therefore, the prerequisite for preserving the incense of the She family is to quickly wipe out the rebels, so that Governor Zhu can speak in front of the Holy Emperor, and then the She family still has a glimmer of hope.If She Yin and others fail to exterminate them repeatedly, the Governor will be afraid that he will not be able to protect them even if he wants to.In order to avoid future troubles, the imperial court will definitely eradicate the roots. By then, there will be no more Yongningshe family in the world.

This is why I said that you can bring order to the chaos, but instead save them and allow their incense to continue.

If the general does this, it will help the court to quickly eliminate She Yin and others. The governor will definitely leave a branch to allow the She family to survive. In that way, wouldn't you be more worthy of She Chongming?If the general still doesn't look back, he still cowers and shirks the blame, unwilling to turn his back on the enemy.

If the war is prolonged and the court or even the Holy One becomes impatient, I think not only will the general die, but also the She family will be exterminated. Wouldn't that be a further disservice to She Chongming's kindness to you?You should think carefully about how to do it! "

These words made Luo Qianxiang speechless.

It's not that we can't forget the friendship. Is the friendship that leaves a lasting impression on the She family a big deal?

Luo Qianxiang was pacing back and forth now, struggling in his heart. It seemed that it was still difficult to make a decision.

"Actually, it doesn't matter whether the general surrenders or not. It's just a matter of how much time it takes for the officers and soldiers to suppress the rebellion. But now you must make one mistake and one step at a time. If the general is captured and his entire family is executed, I will definitely come back to see him. General, I have said all I have said, please leave it to the general to decide everything!"

After saying this, the envoy bent over to Luo Qianxiang and held his hands in greeting, and walked out without looking back.

He has exhausted all his benevolence and righteousness, and now he is stepping down for Luo Qianxiang. If he still doesn't understand, then there is nothing he can do.

Luo Qianxiang looked at the court envoy walking out, his face uncertain, his eyes showing a trace of hesitation, and finally all hesitation was replaced by a long sigh.

"Sir, don't leave. The imperial court has treated me so favorably. If I don't understand the situation, it will appear that I don't understand the general situation. Luo is willing to surrender to the imperial court."

When the envoy who had not yet walked out of the room heard Luo Qianxiang's words, he was convinced that the great event had been accomplished, so he immediately turned back and congratulated:
"It's a wise move for the general to abandon the dark side and join the bright side. When the time comes, it won't be a matter of getting promoted to a higher rank. The Sheyin rebels will be wiped out with a snap of their fingers."

Now that he had surrendered, Luo Qianxiang did not hesitate and immediately asked the envoy to take a seat and began to discuss how to cooperate in the future.

"Currently, the imperial army is gathering in Yongning. They want to complete their victory in one battle and take the initiative to attack Dishui. Therefore, the general has to temporarily hold back and take advantage of Sheyin's troop deployment to lead the army into Dishui Stronghold to respond internally and to reconcile with the officials and troops internally and externally."

Luo Qianxiang thought for a while after hearing this, and then shook his head, feeling that this was inappropriate.

"Although She Chongming asked me to train troops, he didn't trust me. Many of the guerrillas and sentry officers under me were from the She family, and they were wary of me. I was afraid of reaching Dishui Village, so I wanted to be at peace with myself inside and outside. At that time, even if She Yin and others don't deal with me, if these people in the army stop me, it will be difficult to accomplish anything by then."

"Oh, what should we do? How about we do it now?"

Luo Qianxiang also thought so, let's do it now!
"This is absolutely true. Let's start now. I will invite these guerrillas and sentry officers over when I set off, and then send my own soldiers and servants to capture them on the spot, and let my people take charge of the army. I'm afraid I will have the trouble to say it in front of my brothers. The last step is to tell everyone the imperial court’s will, so that the brothers can relax.”

The envoy nodded after hearing the words and felt that this plan was feasible. Strike first to gain strength and strike later to suffer disaster. He could control the entire army as soon as possible. Even if he could not cooperate internally and externally, he could cut off Sheyin's arm and greatly reduce his power. He would not be able to look forward or backward. "That's very good, but it will be difficult to attack Dishui Village like that."

"No."

Luo Qianxiang laughed loudly when he heard this. He knew Yongning's terrain and military strength very well, and he understood the weaknesses of Sheyin and others.

"It's very simple to attack She Yin. As long as it is done today, you go to Yongning tonight and inform Mr. Yang that I will lead people to set off the day after tomorrow and send a large army to follow me. She Yin and others still don't know about my efforts to bring order to the chaos. In order to preserve their strength, If you resist the imperial court, the door will be opened for me. When the time comes, I will take the opportunity to seize the gate of Dishui Village and join the army to suppress it. Dishui Village will be destroyed!"

The envoy frowned when he heard this and thought about this plan in his mind. He felt that the risk was too great and the time was too long. In addition, Sheyin and the others had doubts about Luo Qianxiang. What if the news leaked.

"She Yin and others have long had doubts about the general. What if they doubt your Excellency and don't open the door?"

Luo Qianxiang didn't care about this, he knew She Yin's weakness.

"What Sheyin and Fan Long rely on is nothing more than the geographical advantage. There are many sinkholes and caves near Dishui Village, making it difficult to walk. Dishui Village is halfway up the mountain, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. If the army comes to attack, it will be a headache. Very, but my people are very familiar with the terrain there. As long as we lead the way with the officers and soldiers, the terrain will not be able to stop us.

Even if he knows that I have abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, there is no need to worry at all. All we need to do is surround Dishui Village. According to my estimation, Dishui Village still has half a month of food. As long as the siege lasts for half a month, Sheyin and others will be defeated. "

"Good! So good!"

The envoy was overjoyed and felt that with Luo Qianxiang's help, the victory was certain. He immediately decided to capture the cronies of the She family in Tiantai Village first, and then quickly went to Yongning to report the matter.

In the evening, Luo Qianxiang took advantage of the impending war to boost morale and invited all the army generals to meet at the Tiantai Village Yamen. Although Luo Qianxiang was not trusted by the She family, he managed the army well. In addition to winning over the She family's cronies, the rest of the army Everyone just looks at Luo Qianxiang and his horse.

So Luo Qianxiang took this opportunity to capture more than [-] close officers of the She family and show their heads to the public. Then he asked the court envoys to come forward to explain that he had set things right and that anyone who followed him would be forgiven by the court.

Now that the She family was gone and the general had brought order to the chaos, the remaining generals did their best and immediately knelt down and submitted to the court.

Upon seeing this, the messenger set off overnight and traveled all night.He arrived in Yongning smoothly the next morning and told Yang Yumao and others who were discussing military matters in the Yamen.

"Okay, I'm really happy that Luo Qianxiang can join us. Now we can attack Dishui with twice the result with half the effort."

In the past few days, Yang Yumao, Qin Liangyu and Wen Yingkui were also discussing about entering Dishui Village now. However, the terrain there was complicated and easy to defend and difficult to attack. They also had a headache because of this. Now with the help of Luo Qianxiang , this battle must be a sure thing, I think it will definitely save them a lot of effort.

"In that case, things will change later. It has been four or five days since we captured Yongning. The troops are almost rested. We will set off tomorrow and follow Luo Qianxiang's army. Once they take action, the army will immediately support them and strive to conquer them. He won it in one fell swoop.”

Yang Yumao is now determined to win Dishui Village.

In this battle, the soldiers on all three sides and the Shizhu chieftains all won the first battle, but his Sichuan army failed to make any achievements, which made him very anxious. Now that he saw that there was such a great opportunity, he naturally would not let it go, and immediately decided to obey Luo Qianxiang. suggestions.

Wen Yingkui didn't object when he heard this. He had made great contributions in the battle of Yongning, and he made a lot of money by looting the She family.

If you eat meat yourself, you will naturally have to share the soup with others, and you also support Yang Yumao's decision.

"What Luo Qianxiang said makes sense. I have read the She family's account books, and it is true that food and grass are sent to Dishui and other places once a month. Now these places cannot last for a month. I think this is the reason why Luo Qianxiang surrendered to the court.

Even if Luo Qianxiang is defeated, as long as we surround him, within a few days, this drop of water will break down on its own.It's just that most of the officers and soldiers on my three sides are cavalry, which is fine on flat ground. If it is a mountainous and hilly area, the combat strength will be much weaker, so when the time comes, I also ask General Yang to send Sichuan soldiers and chieftain soldiers as the vanguard. "

Seeing that Wen Yingkui was so wise, Yang Yumao nodded with satisfaction and thought highly of him.

"Okay, then as General Wen said, with Shizhu Chieftain and the Sichuan Army as the vanguard, and the soldiers from the three sides holding down the formation, prepare today and set off early tomorrow morning."

"As ordered!"
