Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

Dengzhou Town has been confronting tens of thousands of bandits for three days in the gourd-shaped terrain. After these few days, Yang Sichang's eyes are swollen badly, and the eye circles are black like pandas.

In the Huguang and Xunyang area, there must be more than 2 soldiers and horses that can be collected, but among them, they can be called elite soldiers, and no more than [-] soldiers can be mobilized at any time.

Zuo Zhen and Xun Yang were newly defeated in Fubiao. Although the order was strictly enforced, Yang Sichang didn't dare to think about how effective it would be, and he didn't want to think about it.

Now the more than 1 people living in Huguang Fubiao are living here, and the soldiers and horses have already moved towards Baiyang Mountain under his strict orders.

Then there is He Renlong, the deputy commander-in-chief of Guanghan Town, who has 2000 elite troops. He is a sharp soldier of the Qin Army's frontier army. Now the Hanshui area to the south of Xunyang is fortified. Five or six days ago, a strict order was issued to set off immediately to meet the soldiers and horses of Dengzhou Town. At the same time, depending on the situation of the bandits, the military situation is tense. The hero, so that he can make his sincere efforts, can rush to the battlefield within a few days, increase the strength in front, and prevent the thief from winning another big victory. [

If Dengzhou Town also suffers a disastrous defeat, it is hard to say whether I will be able to continue as a supervisor and assistant minister. It is also hard to say whether I will be able to complete the emperor's entrustment after my prestige is greatly damaged. With the loss of points before, whether I will be able to return to Beijing safely , is really slim.

This matter was so urgent that Yang Sichang was restless almost all night, waiting for news all night, Xiangyang sent flags to various places non-stop, and the latest military news would be sent to the governor's office every once in a while.

The entire Xiangyang city was also immersed in this kind of strong uneasiness.

When Zhang Xianzhong was stationed in Gucheng, the common people and gentry in Xiangyang felt uneasy. At that time, Zhang Xianzhong said that he was calling for security, but he robbed and robbed houses in Gucheng and ran amok. Many powerful landlords were killed and robbed by him. Quite a few, even ordinary people, are definitely not in the minority.

In the history of later generations, some scholar-bureaucrats portrayed Zhang Xianzhong as a bloody butcher who killed people and dug out their hearts in order to cover up the Qing army's Tuchuan, which is too much.

However, some historians or novelists, starting from the class standpoint, portrayed Zhang Xianzhong as a leader of the peasant uprising without any crime.

Both are of course inaccurate. At the beginning of the uprising, Zhang Xianzhong killed many people and looted and burned everywhere. Otherwise, his troops would not be able to grow. Before he arrived in Sichuan, he changed again. The military discipline was better, but looting was still unavoidable. Things.Later, Li Zicheng established the Shun Dynasty, won Guanzhong, and entered Beijing along the border. Zhang Xianzhong began to feel that the country was hopeless. Under the slander, he began to massacre Sichuanese, especially the students and gentry class among Sichuanese.

His reputation was terrible, and he deserved it himself.

At this time, Zhang Xianzhong's notoriety had already spread throughout Xiangyang, Huguang, and people were panicked when he recruited for security. At this time, he raised the anti-flag and defeated many powerful towns such as Zuo Liangyu in a row. Now Dengzhou Town is confronting the bandits again. It is said that there are more bad luck and less good luck.

Once Qiangzhen loses in a row, who knows if Xiangyang can survive?

The more fast horses roaming around the city, the more panicked people will be. Many people are already packing their luggage in secret. Once the news of defeat ahead, they can immediately take the whole family out of the city to escape.

"The bell is ringing again!"

"What time is it? If you rush to report to the city, something will happen!"

"Hey, I don't know whether the news is good or bad... You said that this General Zhenglu, who is so famous, heard that he beat Donglu and beheaded nearly a thousand ranks. How could he be so reckless!"

"Hey, I still underestimated Zhang Xianzhong. How can such a giant thief be easy to deal with?"

"I heard from the blind man at the street that this thief has been lucky for 20 years, and it's only been going on for about ten years now. It's still early, it's still very early!"

"We don't care about so many, but there are warning signs, so we need to think ahead... My brother has already decided to escape the whole family to Jiujiang. My brother's Yue's family is there, thousands of miles away, so it should be safe."

"Brother is going to avoid Changsha."

"There are no soldiers in Hunan. Once defeated, the bandit soldiers can reach Changsha in half a month. There are no soldiers to defend, and the city is in danger." [

"Then, where is it safe?"

"Huh, the safest place is of course Nandu. There are only tens of thousands of thieves. To Nandu, there are Jiangxi Fubiao in Jiujiang along the way, Anqing also has a garrison, and Fengyang soldiers and horses. Including the forbidden army in Nandu, there are 30 million. There are always officers and soldiers, and there are Lord Yuan Jixian and Lord Shi Kefashi over there, and they all seem to be stronger than this Huang Zi, the governor and assistant minister."

Yuan Jixian and Shi Kefa are both famous ministers of the Donglin, especially Shi Kefa, who is at the stage of emergence and is the backbone of the Donglin. Chongzhen knew his family background and inheritance, so he specially sent Xunchen to the south to inspect him, and prepared to transfer the people along the Yangtze River. Both the armed forces and Nanjing were handed over to this person.

Therefore, Shi Kefa has a great reputation. Of course, his ability was only revealed a few years later, and now he seems to be a famous official of one party, and he is very popular among the people.

"There is also Liu Jingyao, Lord Liu, the governor of Fengyang who was just transferred, he was promoted to the governor of Denglai with actual achievements, and I heard that he is also good at morality and can lead troops. By the way, General Zhenglu was brought out by him."

"Come on, bring out this General Zhenglu, I don't think he might be capable."

"Hey, these adults and generals are eating the blood of our people, and at least they have done some serious work. What's the point of telling us to talk behind their backs and poke their backs!"

Amidst the discussion, the ringing of the luan bell was indeed all the way to the governor's office, and Yang Sichang, who stayed up all night, also saw the latest emergency report immediately.

A piece of pond newspaper was held in his hand, but it was as heavy as a thousand catties, so heavy that Yang Sichang could hardly lift it up.

After half a sound, the pond newspaper fell to the ground, and Yang Sichang lay slumped in the chair with an extremely depressed expression.

"Master Supervisor, what's the matter?"

"General Zhang Shouren dispatched a flag officer to send an urgent report. At around noon today, the main force of the Dengzhou town troops came out to attack the barracks of the thieves in the Western Camp. We must defeat the main force of the Western Camp in one battle and capture and behead Zhang Xianzhong."

"Idiots are talking about dreams!"

An aide who is experienced in military affairs picked up the pond newspaper, and after reading it for a few times, he flew into a rage, and shouted angrily: "Zhang Zhenglu is just messing around. Five thousand soldiers invite more than [-] elite bandits who have a favorable location. How can there be victory?" Reason? Above the art of war, where is there such a record and style of play, where is it?"

"Prepare the memorial for self-impeachment..." Yang Sichang sighed silently, and the wrinkles on his thin face suddenly became extremely deep. At this moment, he felt extremely regretful about the effort he had spent in playing Dengzhou Zhenbing and Zhang Shouren, and thought about it The countless changes in the Xunyang area of ​​Huguang were brought about by this person, but now it seems that none of the changes are for the benefit, but they all lead him into the bottomless abyss.

At this moment, he even had doubts, did Zhang Shouren deliberately play this way to avenge his revenge?

But thinking this way is a bit too illusory.

"Anyway," Yang Sichang thought mockingly, "I'm afraid I won't be taking the position of supervisor and assistant minister for long!"

……

……

"Look, there are piles of armor in the west camp. After this battle, the Eighth King will probably smile crookedly."

Under the banner with the word "Yang", the eyes of Cao Ying's general Yang Chengzu and others turned red. Although the Xiying side seemed to be retreating steadily, everyone was not panicked. The number of officers and soldiers was only a few thousand. Now it has passed the time when thousands of elite soldiers can drive 10,000+ peasant troops around. At that time, everyone only had kitchen knives and sticks, and they hadn’t fought a few real big battles. When they encountered big battles, they panicked and were beaten The officers and soldiers ran all over the ground like chasing rabbits. [

Now, everything is different.

"Report to the commander, just say that we have completed the team and are ready to attack."

Yang Chengzu planned to give the officers and soldiers on the opposite side a good look at the first wave. Every 50 people formed a team, with [-] teams on the two wings and [-] teams in the middle. The follow-up continued, one team after another, with more than ten thousand people.They are all selected elite soldiers, which is the foundation for Cao Ying to be able to run rampant for a while.

Now that you are already pinching a soft persimmon, you can no longer hide it!

"attack!"

Yang Chengzu passed down the general order, and there were more than ten thousand subordinates around him echoing, their shouts spread one after another, as if the entire valley was filled with their shouts.

"Cao Ying and Guo Tianxing moved!"

Zhang Xianzhong's hands were already clenched with sweat. Just after the first contact, more than [-] officers and soldiers beat nearly [-] of Sweeping King's men to pieces. He couldn't believe what he saw with his eyes. At this time, Zhang Xianzhong felt comforted when he saw Cao Ying move as promised, and mobilize more than [-] people at once, and the panic after being hit hard subsided again.

No matter how strong the officers and soldiers in front of us are, if Cao Cao, Guo Tianxing and others make a move, and the battalion leaders work together, no matter how strong Dengzhou Town is, they will surely die!

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The drums sounded like thunder, but it was Luo Rucai who beat the drums himself.

Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong both came to the battle in person, but this was very unusual for Luo Rucai. Seeing his action, Cao Ying was very excited!

"Kill officers and soldiers and make a fortune!"

"After breaking the formation, Cao Shuai will have a big reward!"

"Wine, meat, women, money, all of them!"

The sound of howling wolves resounded through Yunxiao, and the whole Cao Ying was boiling!

The densely packed spears were lifted up, and under the spears, there was a head wrapped in a red scarf at the end.

As if in a reincarnation, when Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang first raised the flag of righteousness, he wrapped his head with a red scarf. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the peasants who were oppressed by his descendants rebelled and vowed to overthrow the Ming Dynasty. , wrapped around his head, is still such a dirty red scarf.

Under the turban, there are extremely fanatical faces, and the eyes are full of eyes eager to kill.

If you kill the officers and soldiers in front of you, there will be plenty of food, pigs, cattle, chickens and sheep, and women after sweeping the nearby villages. The rewards will definitely be generous. In troubled times, one day counts as one more day.
