Wanli 1592

Chapter 1066

Blackwater agents collected a large amount of information in Sichuan and sent it back to the capital to Xiao Ruxun, so that Xiao Ruxun could make an accurate judgment.

And according to Xiao Ruxun's judgment, there may be a moderate turmoil in Sichuan in the near future.

In order to cooperate with Xiao Ruxun's next plan, Wang Xianggan wanted to conduct a census of the population in all parts of Sichuan and count the households. Most of the prefectures and counties and the Xuanfu Department honestly recognized it and asked Wang Xianggan to conduct a census, but some places did not cooperate very much. The foreigner, Yang Yinglong is the most cheerful dancer among them.

He actually thought that Wang Xianggan's census was infringing on his power.

Not only did they not cooperate, they also drove out the officials sent by Wang Xiangqian.

This is simply unreasonable, Wang Xiangqian was furious, and sent officials to question Yang Yinglong, but Yang Yinglong kicked him out again, saying some dirty words.

Wang Xiangqian was even more annoyed, and immediately played Xiao Ruxun, asking Xiao Ruxun for Ma Qiancheng's cooperation, and Xiao Ruxun then ordered Ma Qiancheng to cooperate with Wang Xianggan to deter Yang Yinglong.

Ma Qiancheng got the order, and immediately dispatched three thousand white soldiers prepared by Qin Liangyu to the Chongqing government as a deterrent. Yang Yinglong had heard of the reputation of Ma Qiancheng and the white soldiers for a long time, and was a little worried. Under the persuasion of his subordinates, he reluctantly apologized. The crisis was resolved by agreeing to cooperate with the census of households.

But since then Wang Xiangqian began to pay attention to Yang Yinglong, and the Blackwater branch in Sichuan also began to focus on Bozhou, and gradually learned a lot of secrets.

For example, Yang Yinglong used eunuchs to serve him without authorization, and even built his house like a palace, with dragons and phoenixes carved on the furniture, just like a local emperor.

His approach didn't start when Xiao Ruxun started the Northern Expedition, but it started around 20 years before Wanli in the Ming Dynasty.

This guy's disobedience seems to have been there for seven or eight years, and it was not known by the central government until this time. It is conceivable how weak the central government's control over the local area was in the Ming Dynasty.

After Xiao Ruxun knew how arrogant this guy who dared to challenge the imperial power was, he made up his mind to eradicate him, and he had to strike first.

He secretly ordered Ma Qiancheng to prepare the army, and ordered the Xuanwu Camp troops stationed in Changde Mansion to prepare for battle. Once the order was issued, he was attacked from two sides, and he was captured with a thunderous force, beheaded as a public display, and deterred the rest of the chieftains.

Originally, he planned to deal with Yang Yinglong after Nurhachi was dealt with, but Nurhachi's escape into North Korea disrupted his plan.

As a last resort, Xiao Ruxun could only order Ma Qiancheng and Liu Ting, who was stationed in Changde Mansion, to temporarily recharge their energy and store up food, grass and weapons, and wait for his notice.

It is not difficult to fight two battles at the same time. What is difficult is the handling of things after the war, which requires a lot of energy to arrange, and it cannot be sloppy. Jump for a while.

After Liao Zhong received Xiao Ruxun's order, he immediately ordered [-] troops to cross the river to Yizhou. He stayed on the other side to coordinate and asked Ma Chong and Luo Rong to advance as soon as possible, and then figured out Mao Wenlong's movements.

There has been no news of this kid for five or six days. The last news was the news of his successful crossing of the river. I really don't know where they went.

Mao Wenlong didn't go to other places, and kept following Nurhachi, keeping the distance for about a day, eating ashes all the way, which made the soldiers under his command unhappy, but Mao Wenlong didn't make them hungry.

Although the people in the village ran desperately, there was still a lot of wheat that hadn't been cut off in time, which fed the pursuing Qin army, but they felt that Mao Wenlong didn't take them to fight the Jurchens head-on. Very dissatisfied.

"General, we've been chasing him for five or six days. It's time to do it, right? Those North Koreans are really miserable."

One of his subordinates couldn't help it, and spoke directly to Mao Wenlong.

It’s not that they are sincerely against Mao Wenlong, it’s that the Jurchens have gone too far. All they see along the way are destroyed villages and dead people. There are rotting corpses everywhere, mosquitoes and flies flying around, and the stench It makes people vomit, it's really unbearable.

Dingbian City was full of dead people, Shun'an City was also full of dead people, even Pyongyang was gone, it was burned clean, and there were corpses all around. This hell-like scene even made some of the [-] cavalrymen The older ones are like going back to seven years ago.

All of this is the same as seven years ago. The Korean people suffered heavy casualties and were massacred by Japanese pirates. There were dead bodies everywhere. It was so miserable that many soldiers wept for it.

They couldn't bear to see such a scene, but Mao Wenlong led them to collect wheat for food, burned the corpses with a fire, and then continued on their way slowly, without mentioning the matter of going to the decisive battle.

Is he afraid?

Everyone didn't feel like it. Although Mao Wenlong was young, he was courageous and knowledgeable, and he was unambiguous in killing people. How could he be afraid?
The subordinates couldn't help it, so they had to ask the experienced team officer Zhang Long to ask.

Mao Wenlong felt that he could explain it, and when he was about to explain it, the person Mao Wenlong sent to make trouble for Nurhachi came back.

"General, according to your instructions, we succeeded in poisoning. As expected, Jiannu lived in that town for one night, and we poisoned more than 300 people to death. According to your request, we also went to several other towns to poison. And the local people were evacuated, but the Jiannu did not come after them, and the speed of their advance was delayed, and they have not reached Kaesong yet."

Zhang Long who happened to be next to him heard the news and froze there.

What poisoning?What town?What evacuation?what is going on?

After hearing this, Mao Wenlong nodded in satisfaction, and turned his head to look at Zhang Long: "You can't fight with brute strength, knowing that there are more people than us, two thousand fight four or five thousand, you and I are heavenly soldiers and generals The indestructible body of King Kong? Use your brain, don't put your brain aside as a display.

I got the map and poison from Yizhou, and sent Qingqi to chase after it. Jiannu is familiar with the terrain of North Korea, and will definitely follow the route that His Majesty went south to destroy the Japanese pirates seven years ago, and find the necessary places on that route. towns before them to poison the wells.

People always need to drink water. It is said that once bitten by a snake, they will be afraid of well ropes for ten years. Slow down the marching speed again.

This will buy time for the North Koreans in the south to escape, and it will also buy some time for our army. This time is also convenient for me to poison wells in other towns. Before taking a sip of water, I have to test the poison, and I dare not drink it! "

Mao Wenlong's eyes were full of Senhan's murderous intent: "When they are exhausted to find a reliable water source, this is our chance."
