Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 540 Deception

"You still have to be more careful with Jingxuan." Tian Jianxiu was very calm, and said lightly: "Don't have the heart to harm others, and you must have the heart to guard against others."

This person is like a monk, but it doesn't mean he is stupid, otherwise, how could he get such a high position in the camp?

Hearing this, everyone in Chuangying was awe-inspiring. Li Zicheng said decisively: "As Yufeng said, let's do this with Jingxuan, but we must be careful. Brother Cao knows it well. We and Cao Ying's Contact, can not be broken!"

……

With a strong posture, Zhang Shouren blatantly rushed all the way from Shandong to Huguang, and the army deployed to the northwest of Xiangyang, that is, facing the vast area around Junzhou, Fangxian, and Zhuxian.

When the Fushan army arrived, the whole Huguang was shaken, and the movement of his army was noticed by many caring people.

The dispatch of the army every day is really shaking the earth and shaking the sky, but since entering Huguang, the dispatch of the Fushan Army has also slowed down.

On this day, when we arrived at the camping point, I don't know how many people followed. Those selling snacks, doing various small businesses, selling special local products, and even selling older girls and younger wives followed all the way.

The Fushan army was rich, and after a few days of stationing in the village, the people in the area north of Xiangyang had already heard about it.

These soldiers are paid several or two months a month, eat and live in the camp, wear up and down hair, one body after another, and several pairs of boots at a time. Know how to save money, so just use it casually, how can the people in Huguang have seen it before?

Zuozhen, Henan soldiers, or Shaanxi soldiers, each town is poorer than the other, and they are poorer than the common people. Ma Jun of East and West only had two coins on hand, but these people are used to not giving money, so they have always been in the army, and the common people would avoid it if they encountered it. There are countless stories about the soldiers being burned.

The soldiers stationed in the village are better than the soldiers in the past, and they are more restrained, but things like cockroaches and dogs stealing and molesting women are inevitable.This time when the guest soldiers came to station, the local people were taken aback, thinking that it must be bad luck, many families have already sent women away... What happened?But it is something that everyone can't imagine.

The guest soldiers not only gave money for food, but also treated the people very politely. Uncles and aunts never left their mouths. The simple and honest style of etiquette of the Shandong people was played very well by the Fushan soldiers. In a short time, the word of mouth of the guest soldiers spread. .

Now even Xiangyang City has business firms running over, from grain, oil, rice eggs to bacon and bacon, to cloth groceries, these soldiers are very rich in their hands, and they buy when they are happy, and the business is really easy to do.

This time it was transferred to a town near a town, and the camp was built on the edge of the town, stretching for several miles.

Setting up fences, putting antlers to keep horses away, digging ditches, and the people with blue zithers all around were looking for business, and at the same time they asked curiously: "Master, why did you spend so much time building the camp? gone?"

"I'm not leaving, I'm going to stay for a while."

"That's a good thing, our business will have to be taken care of by the military master."

"Then fellow, you have to take it easy when you collect money later, don't be too dark."

"Hey, the soldiers have plenty of money, so there's nothing wrong with taking care of us."

"Nothing? We came all the way to release relief. Our army rations are all gone, and the miscellaneous grains for horses are all gone. Now there is a shortage of food in the camp, but fortunately there is money. Let's fight for the thief. Isn’t it all for you people to put the food map all the way? The result is good. I bought a chicken the day before yesterday, and gave me a two-and-a-half-pound chicken as three and a half catties. It's..."

The news that the Fushan army released relief all the way has already spread. From Luoyang to Nanyang and then to Xiangyang, nearly a thousand miles along the way, there are more than one million people who have given relief. Just know. [

In the eyes of the gentry, it can be regarded as a good deed, but in the eyes of those who are interested, it can be regarded as a military general who does not know the general idea and invites people's hearts without authorization. Some officials are secretly preparing bullets, preparing to send them along with the memorial to impeach Yang Sichang when the war goes wrong. Go up, and in the hearts of the people, in this year and month, even Huguang has disasters, and when life is sad, what else can a general who is willing to release relief and give his military rations to the people have to say?

Hearing the Fushan soldier's complaints, the people all around shouted and cursed together, scolding that disgraceful township party bloody, but in the end it was Fushan who comforted them, all the soldiers said one after another, maybe it was The common people mispronounced themselves, not necessarily because they intended to deceive.

Talking back and forth like this, before dark, the camp was set up, and then soldiers in twos and threes came out and started buying the local products sent by the people around them.

The main thing is to eat. Pig’s trotters are bought and gnawed. It is best to cook ready-made chicken. Three or five people buy one together, and each person tears a thigh and gnaws it. Steamed buns, meat buns, etc. very popular.

It seems that the rations in the Fushan Army are really tight, and the soldiers are obviously starving.

"You are so bold. There is a lack of food in the army. The supervisor has repeatedly said that my Fushan army may go to battle soon, and the army must be replenished first. You, a small food supervisor, dare to accept fire consumption? "

"Based on your excuse, even if you want to go to battle tomorrow, you will have to eat [-]% of the fire consumption for today's thousand stone grain, or I will order you not to deliver the grain, just follow the general's wishes."

"You are so bold, I, I want to march!"

"It's a joke, haha, what a big joke. Although you are a general, I am an imperial court official. I was born as a serious Jinshi. How dare you march to kill me? Are you going to rebel in Dengzhou Town?"

Not far from the gate of the barracks, there was a convoy approaching. In the past few days, the convoy came to deliver supplies to Dengzhou Town every day, but there were constant quarrels every day.

There are more than 1 soldiers and 500 horses in Fushan, and the military rations consumed every day are more than [-] shi. As a result, the daily transportation capacity of Xiangyang is less than [-] shi. Consumption, today this is the food inspector from Suizhou. I was not willing to take such a trip a year ago. The food and salaries of the troops in the towns of Huguang are actually in the charge of the prime minister. They are sent from Nanzhili to Jiangshang every day. Come here, the food is sufficient, but the Master Supervisor doesn’t know what jokes he is joking about. The ticket orders the states and counties to deliver food urgently, and they must arrive within a time limit. Such a hard job, there is still a time limit, and the food will not be charged seven or five bucks. Or [-]% deducted, who would like it?

Even if the lawsuit is brought to the supervisor, these civil officials have nothing to fear. This is the case with the imperial court. If you say that you have to deduct fire consumption to transport grain, this is the rule, the rule of the entire civil official group. If Yang Sichang If he dared to break this rule, he would immediately be a traitor to the entire civil servant group, and his reputation would be so bad that he would offend everyone. Can he clean up such a big mess by himself?

The dependable civil servants were triumphant, and Zhang Shiqiang, a general in the Chinese army, could only hold his nose to receive the grain carts, and then transfer them to the warehouse for storage.

Seeing such a situation, of course the soldiers in Fushan began to scold. They released food along the way and put away almost all their military rations. As a result, Huguang’s side is just such an old ox pulling broken carts. Combat activities against thieves?

These soldiers, while buying and selling things, are also asking if there is a lively market town nearby, if there is a county seat or a state capital. They have several days off and can go out leisurely to play, as long as they go back to camp and sleep every day.

"Stop practicing, walk thousands of miles, relax."

"Everyone is also exhausted, and the horses have lost a lot of fat. No matter how hard they are, they really can't hold on."

"Zhenglu also knows everyone's hard work. Let's take a big vacation and give out rewards. Everyone has a share. Let's go and have fun."

There were different opinions, but they all said the same thing. Sure enough, it was Zhang Shouren who gave these Dengzhou soldiers a big vacation, and let them recover from the fatigue of the long-distance march.

Insufficient rations, exhausted soldiers, these situations in the Fushan Camp were also sent out by some caring people through various channels.

"Military division, what's the matter, take this opportunity and do it?"

"It's true that Zuo Liangyu can fight..." In the depths of the stockade, only Zhang Kewang and Ma Yuanli, plus Xu Yixian, Pan Dujiao and a few of Zhang Xianzhong's pro-military generals, adopted sons, military advisers and conspirators gathered together.

In the past few days, the West Camp has completed its assembly. At least [-] elites can be dispatched at any time, and there are another [-] people in the old camp on Baiyang Mountain, waiting for the front to finish fighting.

These ten thousand people include women and children, Zhang Xianzhong's concubines and the wives and children of the soldiers, and of course some elite soldiers led by strong men to guard them. In addition to the terrain and the condescending guarding of the fortress, it would not be a big problem.

"Zuo Liangyu has a lot of elite soldiers, and they are attacking in a big way. They must be the forward, the central army, and the rear team. They will go straight to Baiyang Mountain and our Dazhai will let his forward. The forward is probably Liu Guoneng. He set up an ambush here. Cut off his forward and central army, and go straight to his central army's main tent, the old Zuo panicked, and he was ready to flee, the snake has no head, no matter how many elite soldiers there are, we will kill him!"

Zhang Xianzhong pointed on a hastily drawn map, and quickly picked out a suitable ambush location.

There are valleys on both sides, which is convenient for ambushes to hide. Once the forwards pass by, they will go directly to the battle to invite attacks and fight a beautiful ambush.

"Cao Cao is on the left, Zicheng is on the right, and we are in the middle. The three families will join forces and beat the old left."

"After this battle, we invited Zicheng to meet in the Zhuxi area..."

"Will Shuai Li be suspicious?"

"No way, the three of us just joined forces to defeat Zuo Liangyu, why is he so suspicious?"

"There is a Wang's village on the side of Zhuxi. The major general led hundreds of elite cavalry in it. We invited Cao Ying and General Chuangying to meet in the west camp. Everyone didn't bring more troops. Neither Li Shuai nor Cao Shuai knew Doubt, once people enter the stronghold, everything will be much easier."

Xu Yixian pressed his hand less than ten miles to the left of the battlefield, and said in a firm tone: "There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two masters in the people. Respect the commander, it's time to make up your mind!"
