184 A ray of light
The matter started on the evening of the 17th. In less than half a month, it had swept over half a month. It was a pity that Buzhan's speed of marching. It can be said that he caught off guard in the Sichuan officialdom. Pingwu is a subordinate of Long'an Mansion. After being breached by Buzhan's mud, he couldn't even cover it.
Half a day after Lu Haoshan received the Feige's letter, the Sichuan Metropolitan Commander Guo Feng also received information about the general content and fell on the Taishi chair.
The situation was very unhappy. On the same day, he heard someone looting the secret weapon depot in Shiquan and robbing Shiquan County. Guo Feng was still comforting himself. It might have been done by the wandering soldiers. According to the information, Buzhanni has been wandering around Shaanxi. Someone was pretending to be his name and was raising trouble. Just when he was dispatching troops to exterminate the thieves in one fell swoop, he didn't expect that even Pingwu would be captured by Buzhanni, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
Sichuan's terrain belongs to a basin, with high on all sides and low on the middle. When defending, it focuses on defense. The defense in the middle is empty, especially at the border with Xifan in the west. It is necessary to defend against people who sneak in, and even without being stuck in mud, it is like a no-man. Before he could react, he had swept over half of Long'an Mansion, from a mere 1,000 people to a population of ten thousand people. Now he can't even cover it up.
In a vague way, Guo Feng had already smelled a trace of conspiracy.
"Comeone" Guo Feng suddenly shouted loudly.
"A" was always in front of the hall and the guards rushed forward to obey the orders.
Guo Feng shouted loudly: "Let people over a thousand households come to Dusi Mansion for a meeting quickly, hurry up."
"Get orders!"
In the late Ming Dynasty, the changes in the situation could be described as a whole. The officialdom in Sichuan was more intense than the battlefield. The front and the officials and the non-muddy mud fought each other, while the officials behind had already started to fight each other openly and secretly. Lu Haoshan, as a member of the system, cooperated with the Zhao clan early, and was well-informed and received new news every day:
On the eighth day of the third month, Wuzhan led his people to capture Qingchuan and attacked Jianmen Pass in Sichuan's natural danger;
On the tenth day of March, the commander Guo Feng gathered 30,000 people and marched towards Qingchuan in three directions;
On March 15th, the government army fought with the government army in Qinglinkou. The government army was ambushed by the government army. The two sides had a victory or defeat, and the government army took the initiative to withdraw from the battle. After more than 400 casualties, the government army beheaded more than 1,000 people, with corpses everywhere and blood flowing into a river. However, most of the people beheaded were the elderly, weak, sick and disabled in the team of the government;
On March 21, Buzhanji jumped out of the encirclement of the government army again and led more than 4,000 people to attack Jianzhou;
On March 22, Guo Feng removed two thousand-household chiefs from the pretext of not listening to the dispatch and severely punished more than ten officers with poor performance. There were rumors that some troops, as commander-in-chief Guo Feng could not command, and there were also rumors that when Guo Feng visited his subordinate Han Wen, the two had a fierce quarrel. Finally, Guo Feng waved his sleeves and left. Some ministers in the court dereliction of duty and were poor in their abilities. Some censors impeached Guo Feng to kill good deeds and acted badly;
On April 12, after conquering Zitong County, Buzhan captured Tieshan Pass, and the thieves were in great power. In Wuxiong Prefecture, Zhenxiang Prefecture, Chongqing Prefecture and other places, some people responded to Buzhan. There were more than ten rebels in the uprising. The whole of Sichuan was suddenly in turmoil. It is said that Lao Huihui, Bazhaowang and others were moving to Sichuan;
On April 15, Buzhan Ni led his elite troops to attack Qinglinkou where heavy troops gathered at night, and used tigers to squat cannons to open the way, and fired fire guns at once. The official army did not expect Buzhan Ni to attack the official army, and suffered heavy casualties. Chen Zhong, the assistant chief of the Ministry of the Ministry, died on the spot. In addition, one person died and two people were injured. Seven hundred households attacked the country for a long time. The momentum of Buzhan Ni reached its peak;
On April 28, the emperor issued an order to remove the position of commander Guo Feng from the commander of the capital, and was taken back to Beijing by the Jinyiwei to question the crime. Han Wenden, the commander of the commander who was sick, was ordered to serve as the commander of the commander of the capital, and was ordered to suppress the commander of the capital. Chongzhen ordered Han Wenden to destroy Buzhan and others in Sichuan, and never let a rioter wander to other places.
The situation finally came a big turn, and the news that Han Wen had successfully taken over the throne reached Lu Haoshan, and it was already early May.
Lu Haoshan and Li Nian chatted in the yard.
"Congratulations to Dongweng, Han Wenden successfully took office. This matter is half successful. Dongweng is about to be promoted, so it is a joy to congratulate him." Li Nian said to Lu Haoshan with a smile.
"It's not the last moment, and I don't know who laughs the last time. That's not a mud or a fuel-efficient lamp. Guo Feng gathered more than 30,000 elite troops to encircle and suppress them for more than two months but did not wipe them out. Instead, he became stronger and stronger."
Lu Haoshan said it seriously, but the smile betrayed him.
Li Nian said disapprovingly: "The first thing to do is to riot, but among so many thieves in Shaanxi, they can only be considered a medium-sized role, with agility and lack of courage. Judging from being generous, they actually have no tolerance, selfishness, and lack of climate. Even in Shaanxi, they are not the key target of the court's attack. This person's achievements are like this. As for not being wiped out for more than two months, it is just the result of Han Wendeng and Guo Feng's battle."
After pausing, Li Nian continued: "Han Wendeng is an old soldier and has always been in charge of military training. Now most of the generals in the Sichuan Army are his confidants. This time, he was obviously a trap for Guo Feng. Those generals were all silly disobeying each other. No one took him seriously. The soldiers did not work hard, and even a hundred thousand troops were useless. Besides, the adults also placed an important chess piece next to Wutanji. The high and low in the middle of Sichuan. As long as the exit is guarded, the turtle in the jar is in the jar. With Han Wendeng's cunning, they might also have placed fine pieces next to Wutanji. There are many people who are not stuck in mud, but the personnel are complicated. It is too simple to install fine pieces."
Li Nian said with some contempt: "The people are the people. They are wearing armor and muskets. They are still ordinary people. How can they compare with the army? In this battle, if they are not stuck in mud, they will be defeated. Sichuan is his burial place."
Lu Haoshan nodded and said, "Mr. Li said very much. Han Wenden took office. In order to hold his position and show his face in front of the emperor and all officials, he will definitely suppress the riot as quickly as possible. I think there will definitely be movement within three days."
"Now the training of the picket team is just completed, and the food and grass are also completed early in the morning. Just wait for the new commander to see the east wind." Li Nian said with a smile: "It should be a good wind to send Dongweng straight to Qingyun."
"All people have to do it, let it go," Lu Haoshan said in a low voice: "Mr. Li, the hidden stakes that are not stuck in the mud and those who are left in Jiangyou, are there any movement?"
Although Liu Jinzhu disappeared with a musket, Lu Haoshan claimed to the public that Liu Jinzhu went back to his hometown to visit relatives without making any public criticism, and conducted a so-called investigation inside. The stake that was not stuck in mud escaped the investigation and continued to stay in the county government. Lu Haoshan never moved the nest of Jiangyou, and let him do whatever he wanted. As long as the things left in Jiangyou, it was his own.
When talking about the stakes and nests that were left in Jiangyou by Wusanmu, Li Nian was happy, smiled and said with a sly look: "That stake, the student has created many opportunities for him and made several small contributions. Besides, he has spared no money to pay tribute. Now he has been promoted to the position of captain. According to the return of the informant, he has acted as the role of taking over the role of Captain Liu. Wusanmu seems to feel that the situation is wrong. He has been secretly sending people to secretly transport the things he snatched back. The things he transported back even have weapons. It is probably because he is prepared. Even if he is defeated, he will have a chance to make a comeback. Especially after conquering Queen Pingwu, our people found that they had transported several trucks of money and goods back."
"Hahaha" Lu Haoshan couldn't help laughing. The first time he found out that he was still quite cute without being stuck in mud.
I have been only going out but not in. There is not much money left. If I didn't order the money, Lu Haoshan would want his subordinates to cover up their faces and rob them in the chaos. He just looked like a "transportation team leader" who kept coming back from transporting things. His father-in-law Zhao Yuqing immediately sponsored Lu Haoshan's 30,000 taels of silver and a batch of food and grass. Zhao Jun was walking early on the way to collect spring tea, preparing for the second tea-horse transaction. Lu Haoshan felt more at ease.
It’s a joke that you still want to raise soldiers without money or food.
"Mr. Li, you have to pay close attention. Those things are allowed to enter and leave. As long as they are in Jiangyou territory, let them do whatever they want. In addition, inform the picket team to prepare for the war at any time." Lu Haoshan said with a serious face.
Li Nianyi said respectfully: "Students receive the order."
Lu Haoshan was right. After only two days, he received two notices, one was issued by Sichuan Chengxuan political envoy Liu Yindong and the "Mobilization Order" issued by commander Han Wenden. The order for the pardon said that the people were deceived by demons or forced to join the team. As long as they return to their hometown before June, they will not investigate the past, but the people who return to their hometown will send people to escort along the way. They will not be embarrassed. Those who have not returned for more than June will be treated as rebels.
The mobilization order was issued by Han Wenden, the commander-in-chief of the acting chief. Last time, the Sichuan military and civilians called on the people of Sichuan to protect their land and protect their property and mobilize them all to eliminate the rebels without being involved in mud. As long as they have made contributions in the process of suppressing bandits, everyone will reward them, reward them with rewards, silver, and official positions according to their merits. It also states that those who do not obtain the heads of non-official troops will be granted a thousand households and rewards for thousands of gold, and those who hunt the heads of purple gold dragons and double-winged tigers will be granted a hundred households and rewards for hundreds of gold. At this moment, there are still many rewards.
Just seeing it makes people excited.
With a "bang", Lu Haoshan punched the desk and said excitedly: "It's great, the opportunity has finally come."
Li Nian took out a letter and said with a smile: "Dongweng, there is another letter here, which is a handwritten letter given to you by the commander-in-chief of the Director."
Han Wendeng’s handwritten letter?
Lu Haoshan suddenly snatched the letter and read it carefully word by word. After reading it, he took it away and said with excitement: "Mr. Li, our east wind is coming."
The letter only talks about several words, which means that Lu Haoshan responds actively and sets an example. Han Wendeng also hinted in the letter that he is optimistic about Lu Haoshan and will create some convenience for him at the right time.
From literature to martial arts, Lu Haoshan finally saw a ray of dawn
