Chapter 321 Six hundred thousand army (additional updates for the third year of junior high school)

Ping An is so obvious. He has a big head. If someone sees it and passes it to the capital in the future and says he will be safe at night, what is that?

"Come on—" Song Sheng wanted to ask someone to arrest Ping'an, but he felt it was inappropriate.

After all, Song Sheng has a bottom line and his reputation has been passed down for a lifetime. If he does such a thing, he will be completely lost.

If Song Sheng was replaced by Zhang Wu and Zhu Di, he would definitely arrest Ping'an immediately. These two people have no bottom line.

But Song Sheng couldn't do this.

"Your Highness General, you can't do this, don't panic, I'll leave after saying a few words." Ping'an Dao Jindao sat in the tent: "There are many people in the city during the day, and some things are not easy to talk to the old general, so I want to find an opportunity to talk to the old general."

Song Sheng whispered: "Don't make plans for each other, we have nothing to talk about, Ping An, don't harm me."

Song Sheng was very angry now. Ping An suddenly visited. If Zhu Di knew about this, he would be unable to explain it in the future.

"I'm here to help you, why are you a disaster?" Ping An said: "Your Song family wants to be rich for a hundred years and you have to place the right bet. If the King of Han wins, your attitude will be in great trouble."

Ping'an said again: "This place is thousands of miles away from the capital. What will happen in the future? Will the old general have the final say?"

Zhu Gaoxu was in Guangxi. In addition to the military military commanders and the soldiers given to Guizhou, he still had 200,000 troops and was preparing to attack Huguang next step.

Officials in Yunnan, Guangdong, Fujian, Guangxi, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Jiaozhi, doubled their salaries.

Next, Zhu Gaoxu reorganized his troops in various places and established his own Chengxuan Zhengzheng Department, Dusi and Censorship Department.

Zhu Di is now mobilizing troops across the country and drawing a large number of soldiers in the garrison, so many military fields are already lacking in farming.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu was not in charge of troops in Fujian and Guangdong, and had already had an army of 600,000, and the situation was much better than Zhu Di's Jingnan.

Song Sheng asked the remaining more than 2,000 people to guard it well, and took the cavalry first, and said that the court would come over in the future. After that, he brought some food and grass from Hanzhong and ran back to Xi'an without stopping.

After September, Zhu Gaoxu, who had captured several provinces of territory, did not rush to attack again.

"Besides, we only need Hanzhong, and it is not difficult for the old general. If you retreat in a hurry, some mistakes will inevitably be avoided?"

The next day, Song Sheng's entire army set off to Hanzhong, and Ping'an's troops chased him closely, and did not chase him.

To be honest, officials don’t care who you are the emperor, and the benefits you get are the most practical.

In this way, after the Sichuan side was fighting, Zhu Gaoxu could go to war with about 80,000 troops, mainly stationed in Hanzhong and Chongqing.

There were 200,000 soldiers and horses in Guizhou, of which Yuan Shengyong had more than 70,000 soldiers and horses. After defeating Xue Lu, he obtained 50,000 or 60,000 surrendered troops. Later, he captured Guiyang and integrated the entire garrison in Guizhou. Shengyong had already had 150,000 soldiers and horses.

When the news came out, the world was shaken and the Ming Dynasty was shaken.

"..." Song Sheng.

In addition to Sichuan, the commander of the Guizhou Metropolitan Commander was Ping'an, the commander of the Guangxi Metropolitan Commander was Wang Zhong, and Sheng Yong was the general officer of Guangxi, and commanded the two capitals of Guizhou and Guangxi.

All the truths are spoken of, and whoever raises the salary will definitely support whoever is supported.

When Zhu Gaoxu was in Guangxi, he gathered the surrendered troops and obtained Xu Zhong's troops. After breaking Guilin, the total force exceeded 300,000. Because there were too many troops and too many grain pressure, and the tax on Guangtian military fields was small, he distributed 50,000 to Sheng Yong, so the Guizhou troops reached 200,000.

At this time, he was already in a state of poverty, like a refugee, and he was like an official army. Because the news of the official army's defeat in Sichuan was spread everywhere, many prefectures and counties in Sichuan no longer opened their doors and did not support food and grass for them.

At this time, there were 150,000 soldiers and horses in Sichuan, of which 40,000 were basically composed of surrendered soldiers from the Battle of Sichuan, and only more than 30,000 were the original anti-rebel army.

Song Sheng was speechless for a long time.

"Does the old general understand what I mean?"

Song Sheng fell into a brief silence.

Sheng Yong also left 50,000 troops to the Guizhou Dusi to garrison, so Guizhou could use mobile troops to garrison 150,000.

Of course, these 20,000 cavalry sieges are not suitable, but the people left behind by Hanzhongwei surrendered without saying a word.

In September, good news came out in the southwestern provinces at the same time.

He is different from Zhu Di.

Defense against Guanzhong and Huguang.

If Zhang Wu had to do this, he would probably claim to be a rebel and rob the people and stolen the rebels. However, Song Sheng could not do such a thing, and he needed food, so he would ruin the reputation of the official army.

The remaining soldiers of Hanzhong Guard were confused and depressed.

Now Zhu Gaoxu suddenly announced that everyone's official salary would double, and immediately gained the support of all Ming officials.

Song Sheng was indeed interested and listened intently. He also wanted to know what King Zhu Gaoxu of Han had to think of him.

Both sides crossed half of Sichuan.

Song Sheng was full of cavalrymen, and he was unwilling to attack the city, so he could only run away desperately. When he encountered some villages along the way, he directly grabbed some food, which made the reputation of the official army worse.

"During the Jingnan Dynasty, Sheng Yong and I almost killed Zhu Di. If the old emperor hadn't killed his uncle, if it weren't for the use of Li Jinglong, he would have allowed Zhu Di to survive to this day." Ping'an took advantage of the situation and blew himself.

"The victory or defeat is clear. It's useless to have a million troops in the court. Zhu Di has no available generals."

After this battle, the anti-rebel army obtained a large number of surrendered troops, and the strength of the anti-rebel army and the official army changed drastically again.

The Ming Dynasty military fields were stationed in three parts and the military fields were seven parts.

"We won a great victory in Guizhou and a great victory in Guangxi. Now the Han King occupies nearly half of the Ming Dynasty, Fujian, Guangdong, Sichuan, Yunnan, Guangxi, Guizhou."

But although most of them were surrendering troops, Zhu Gaoxu still used the old routine of dividing land and increasing wages, disrupting the reorganization, and then arranged about 70,000 people to return to the garrison to farm, garrison and train.

"..." Song Sheng.

Song Sheng has such rich experience. Don’t you know the importance of Hanzhong? Now that you are fleeing Sichuan and don’t defend Hanzhong, wouldn’t you cause trouble?

"If the old general says this, I can only lead troops to Hanzhong overnight and block the old general first?" Ping'an said dissatisfied.

Zhu Gaoxu got Hanzhong and could attack Guanzhong at any time in the future. On the other hand, the Guanzhong official troops wanted to attack, which made him feel a little headache.

When Song Sheng's face turned red, he didn't know if he was excited or excited.

Ensure the output and income of military fields.

Cao Yu, the former governor of the left and right of Yunnan, went to Sichuan to serve as governor of the government, Chen Wen was the commander of the Sichuan Metropolitan Division, Jin Rong was the commander of the Yunnan Metropolitan Division, and Qu Neng was the general officer of Sichuan and commanded the two governors of Sichuan and Yunnan.

In order to concentrate more troops in Huguang, Zhu Di was recruiting nationwide, and fewer and fewer people were stationing military fields, which would definitely affect the autumn harvest in the second half of the year and the production next year.

"Even if Zhu Di doubts, he dares not make things difficult for the old general."

Ping'an went to Chengdu before him. According to Ping'an's meaning, he could also go to Hanzhong before him.

At this time, the victory of the three major battles in Guangxi, Guizhou and Sichuan accumulated a large number of troops for Zhu Gaoxu, and also spread the name of victory in a hundred battles throughout the Ming Dynasty.

There was originally a guard who was stationed in Hanzhong Guard.

The Ming Dynasty's official ratio was about 2,000 to 1, but the salary was relatively low among all dynasties in history, so corrupt officials were prevalent in the Ming Dynasty, and Lao Zhu couldn't control his skin and light the lamp.

In addition, the troops in Fujian, Guangdong, Yunnan and Jiaozhi were not counted.

Now that I come back, the original more than 3,000 people have been lost on the Sichuan battlefield.

In addition to the provinces' garrisons to ensure the grain and garrison, Zhu Gaoxu's mobile troops were.

Zhu Gaoxu, based on the principle of being strong in the army and not in the number of people, and at the same time, he must ensure food. He first divided half of the 150,000 troops in Sichuan back to the various garrisons to continue to garrison the military farms.

During the war, 70% of them were usually drawn to fight. During the Jingnan Dynasty, many of them were transferred from the entire military and the entire headquarters, and the military fields were left for the family and the military surplus to plant.

Sichuan is 80,000, Guizhou is 150,000, and Guangxi is 200,000, a total of 430,000 can be used to fight.

When Song Sheng and his friends supported Sichuan, they took more than 3,000 people away.

Seeing that he was hesitant, Ping'an said again: "Before I came, the King of Han told me."

"The King of Han said—"

"The King of Han said that the Old General Song is different from other Yan generals. He is charming. What he promised will definitely not repent like Zhu Di. So if you talk to him, as long as you get the promise of Old General Song, you can feel 120 hearts."

Ping An really knew his plan.

Song Sheng's face changed drastically.

Each soldier in the garrison added five cents, and the land was redistributed and taxed again.

"I originally wanted to rush to Hanzhong overnight and go to Hanzhong first before you, but that would block the old general's retreat, and the King of Han didn't want to make things difficult for the old general."

Ping'an smiled and said, "I won't make you embarrassed. I know you want to go from Hanzhong. You can lead your troops all the way through Hanzhong. Just don't leave any troops or horses, or leave a small number of troops."

He stared at Ping'an and hesitated for a moment: "Gao Xu doesn't need to say such nice words. I will lead troops through Hanzhong without leaving any troops. If I pass them to the capital, your Majesty will also doubt it."

Of course, if Ping An is blocked in Hanzhong, Song Sheng must fight with him. Both sides are cavalry, which would be meaningless.

Not long after Song Sheng left, Ping An arrived with 20,000 horses.

I just didn't want to block him, so I let him go first.

"We will also attack Huguang soon."

"The old general has rich experience, so you should see who this world is in the future? The Song family's wealth for a hundred years is all in the thought of the old general."

In the battle of Sichuan, the anti-rebellion army won a great victory again. Except for more than 30,000 cavalry returning to Shaanxi, only a small number of infantry could run back. Most of them either surrendered, disappeared, or were damaged on the battlefield.

In mid-August, Song Sheng, with more than 30,000 troops, rushed all the way, and finally fled to Hanzhong in a mess.

He didn't learn from Wu Sangui. Wu Sangui's foundation was unstable, and the support from Fujian and Guangdong was not enough, so he could not consume the huge resources of the Qing court.

Now that Zhu Di has just ascended the throne for four years, his foundation is unstable.

Zhu Gaoxu's rule in various provinces gradually stabilized, and officials and soldiers from various provinces all supported Zhu Gaoxu, so he was not in a hurry.

Moreover, his troops and territory collapsed at this time, and he had to pay more money. The logistics and food and supplies were relatively short, and he needed to make up for it. The newly reduced troops and horses also had to be reorganized and integrated to ensure the subsequent battle.
