The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 328
Hao Jingcheng naturally understood the purpose of Li Lei's spreading news like this, and it was nothing more than to make everyone in the Jianghu regard him as an enemy.

But Hao Jingcheng didn't take it to heart.

In fact, when he was about to deal with Li Lei and others wholeheartedly, both he and Li Lei actually underestimated the waves that this matter would eventually cause.

Today, all of this is still quietly brewing in some clues, and spread with the end of the battle of massacring the cottage.

In the few days after the battle with the rebels, Hao Jingcheng's life was basically spent on the road and eating.On the way, I sorted out all kinds of information, and had meals mostly for entertainment, negotiating with county magistrates, prefectures, or other officials who were in charge of reserves and material allocation.

In the midst of being busy, it is difficult to rest. Of course, although it is mostly logistics that determine the outcome of a war, Hao Jingcheng's entertainment is not for this reason.

In the whole process of dealing with the rebels, the ingenious plan to strip and disintegrate more than [-] people that could be removed was already an incalculable achievement in the eyes of others, but for Hao Jingcheng, the matter was only half done.

From the very beginning, he didn't think that his strategy could solve all the problems at once. In the end, fighting must be fought, but he didn't know much about fighting.

Although Zhang Rui, commander of the local army, and Zhang Yaling are now willing to ask him about the final plan, Hao Jingcheng has completely let go of the command power. Ya Ling, he just watched everything with a learning attitude, and occasionally asked questions about aspects that he didn't understand, but he never questioned the other party's decision.

After all, he is very resourceful, but he is not good at deploying troops. He has a specialization in art, and Hao Jingcheng has no intention of learning this. People, sometimes they have to learn to let go properly. Three Kingdoms At that time, Zhuge Liang was smart, but he died young.

With the previous record of the rebel army at the bottom, if he doubted it, it would be fine if the other party refused to listen. If he wavered, it would be the most troublesome thing. If he wanted to do things, he must not let the layman command the insider.

In the first battle of the rebels, the relevant achievements, military achievements, and gold and silver income can now be determined. Hao Jingcheng is considered to be kind to others, and made the whole matter a major event in the surrounding counties and local government troops led by Zhang Rui in the public opinion. .

During this period, on the one hand, he has to coordinate with all parties, distribute benefits, and report the whole matter of asking for credit to Li Gang; In the past, relying on the power of destroying the rebels, Li Gang's tiger skin not only lured the officials around him, but actually threatened them.

In a few days, Hao Jingcheng went back and forth from various places, meeting with people one after another, except for distributing benefits and asking people to do the next assistance.

After a few days of travel and dinner, Hao Jingcheng would only tell Li Tianying, Li Biao and others about the whole situation when he returned to meet more than 2000 people in Langya Ridge.In his mouth, this is a negotiation between high-level leaders. Only when they know the direction of the strategy can the leaders of the army better decide on tactics.

After the battle at Langya Ridge, Li Tianying and others did not participate in the first battle of the rebels.But after appeasing the farmers and treating the wounded, they gathered more than 3000 people and followed Hao Jingcheng's instructions to chase them here.

Among the more than 3000 people, the village households who are the most capable of fighting and have blood feuds with the rebels are probably in the early [-]s as the main force, and the people from the Hulang family village brought by Nine Girls are also here.

As for the other thousand or so people, they are not the logistics personnel prepared for the expedition team, but according to Hao Jingcheng's arrangement, many people who perform trivial tasks, headed by doctors, accountants, and stewards, are specially made to clean up the mess left by Li Lei. Prepare.

At noon that day, Hao Jingcheng had already gone to talk to the chiefs of the local officers and soldiers, and finally came to Langya Ridge. The people followed Li Lei's large troops all the way up, and confessed to Li Tianying and others.

"I don't dare to be too big, I won't fight, but after the first battle of the rebels, Li Lei and the others can choose two directions. To put it bluntly, it is actually simple, either delay or surrender. As for the third way, leave I, Da Song, seek refuge with the Kingdom of Jin and the others, probably not."

As the sun was setting, everyone set up a camp on the mountain. Hao Jingcheng spread out many delicacies brought by him on the grass. A wild boar was roasting on the campfire, but it was the harvest of Li Biao and others on the road. The sizzling dripping, the aroma is constantly spreading.

Li Tianying and others gathered here, if any young people came to have a look, Hao Jingcheng would also greet them and ask them to bring a box of meals and cut a piece of pork.

"It's very simple. In the east of Henan and Shandong, the power of the government is not strong. Many things are outdated. The surrounding barren mountains and mountains are everywhere. Although they lost Qinglong Mountain, it is impossible for the local government army led by Zhang Rui to reach 2. Many people and the whole army went out to accompany them around."

After a pause, Hao Jingcheng went on to say: "The interests of the rebels have already been obtained, and everyone has to share them. After they are distributed, no one is willing to take them out. In terms of the entire logistics, the local officials and soldiers cannot and are not in the mood to procrastinate. As long as they drag the local army out of their minds, find a hill and set up a village, within a few years, they can make a comeback."

"Of course, it's not easy to just drag it, so they ran, took the village and burned people's houses. They didn't kill many people, they just wanted to leave complaints. You are a county magistrate, and you may be able to get some credit for this matter, but the following After several places were all burnt down, people didn't die again. Maybe in this year's performance appraisal, the credit won't be made up. This is a more troublesome thing."

Hao Jingcheng paused: "So they burned and looted all over the place for a while, and then they might run in the direction of Jining. Jining sees that we have a problem here, and the parents and officials over there may act on the basis of The idea that more things are worse than less things, the decision to recruit them. And recruiting them, the size is also a credit, avoiding the bad evaluation on the performance appraisal, and more credit than our side. It is likely that they will do this , This is a way to descend, and once it really descends, it will be very difficult for us to kill them."

Li Tianying nodded. He didn't want to see the second situation that Hao Jingcheng said. Now Langya Ridge has become a deadly enemy with the rebels. Speaking of it, it was definitely a huge robbery.

Thinking of this, Li Tianying couldn't help but said softly: "So, the decisive battle will be on our side? We will completely wipe out Li Lei's rebels here!"
