193 [Yaksha Heavenly Soldier] (For the leader of the alliance, Qi Tian
After taking Yongxin County, Jiang Dashan immediately divided his troops and went to block the mountain passes between Huguang and Jiangxi, and asked the General Military Mansion to send officials and missionary teams over.
Half a month later, a scholar who looked like a beggar fled to Ji'an Fucheng to report that the bandits in Yongning (Jinggangshan City) had escaped and ran over the mountains to Ling County (Yanling County) in Huguang. Please send someone to Yongning quickly.
County division of farmland.
Dividing the fields is a lie, but seeking Zhao Han's protection is true.
There is no harm without comparison. The gentry in Luling, Jishui and other counties felt that Zhao Han was like a big devil. But the gentry in Yichun, Yongxin and other counties had long been looking forward to Zhao Han's passing. At least Zhao Han wanted Tian to die, and other counterattacks
The thief wants everything!
Zhao Han couldn't laugh or cry about this.
Yongning County is not the territory of the Sweeping King, and Zhao Han has never thought about taking over this place, because this place is poor and remote, and neither Zhao Han nor the Sweeping King looks down on it.
Now, Zhao Han sent troops to attack Yongxin County and actually scared away the rebels in Yongning County next door...
It is also possible that the rebels in Yongning felt that this place was too poor and it was unsafe to be near Zhao Han, so they simply went to Huguang to plunder wealthier places.
Now that Yongning County has become an ownerless land and the people have sincerely surrendered, Zhao Han can only reluctantly accept it. It is really difficult to accept it. It is really difficult to accept it. Such a poor place has to cost officials and missionary groups to manage, and the tax revenue is probably not enough to support the local officials.
Zhao Han thought about it, discussed it with Pang Chunlai and Li Banghua, and decided to set up only three towns in Yongning County, and farmers could allocate more fields as there were too many barren mountains!
The current acres of land are completely sufficient. The rebels on the border are causing trouble in the counties. Not only have most of the landowners been killed, but also the civilian population has dropped sharply. In Luling, Jishui and other counties, the excess population can be moved there, and the land under Zhao Han's control can be instantly
More than enough.
It's just that money and food are scarce. After all, migrating people costs a lot.
The commercial taxes in Linjiang Prefecture, Ji'an Prefecture and Zhangshu Town, the iron mines, iron factories and porcelain kilns in Xinyu County and Fenyi County, as well as the three consecutive years of agricultural harvests, all made Zhao Han rich.
However, he was always short of money and food, because he did not exploit the people, but also paid sufficient salaries to officials and soldiers.
Fei Chun, who was in charge of money and food, could hardly breathe.
…
Yuanzhou Fucheng.
Li Zheng, like Jiang Dashan, did not choose to attack by force.
Moreover, he was more ruthless than Jiang Dashan, leaving only 500 men to guard the other side of the river. He let ships come and go every day, and planted flags all over the military camp, creating the illusion of a constant increase in troops.
The remaining troops quietly left at night and headed straight to Pingxiang County further west.
The Datong Navy blocked the river, and the news was completely cut off. The Sweeping King did not know the situation in Pingxiang, and the Pingxiang rebels did not know what happened to the Sweeping King.
King Sweeper was sitting in Yuanzhou's city with more than 5,000 soldiers. He didn't know that there were only 500 enemies left outside the city. Instead, he thought that he was surrounded by a large army and there must be an ambush of enemies in the mountains outside the city.
Half a month passed, and rebels kept escaping, all using ropes to sneak out of the city at night.
In desperation, the sweeping king could only confiscate all the ropes in the city. Anyone who hid the ropes secretly would have his head chopped off!
Feeling that procrastination was not a problem, the Sweeper King selected hundreds of warriors, and Yi Zhangbing also selected hundreds of warriors. The two removed the door panels of the city and crossed the river at night to attack the camp on the other side. They might be able to defeat the enemy and rout them.
That night.
Yi Zhang Bing asked the soldiers to bring more food, quietly set out from the east gate, and then ran directly to the mountains to the north.
His subordinates quickly reminded: "Second Master, King Zhao's barracks is in the south."
Yi Zhangbing said angrily: "King Zhao Tian has learned magic and can summon heavenly soldiers and generals. His soldiers are all heavenly soldiers and generals. How can we defeat them?"
"Then where are we going?" the men asked.
Yi Zhangbing said: "I have already inquired about it. There is a trail in the mountains to the north that leads directly to Wanzai County. We can't defeat Zhao Tianwang's soldiers, and we can't defeat the officers and soldiers of Wanzai County? From now on, we will go to Wanzai County to enjoy the blessings!"
Several hundred rebels were very happy that they didn't have to cross the river to die, so they went into the mountains in the dark and headed straight for Wanzai County.
The Sweeping King also did not cross the river to attack the camp. He didn't want any of the property, so he left the city through the west gate with several hundred old thieves.
He did not dare to walk on the flat land on the bank for fear of being discovered by Datong soldiers. So he went to Pingxiang along the valley on the north bank of the Yuan River, planning to regroup his troops in Pingxiang County, and then kill Kuaihuo in Liuyang County, Huguang. If Liuyang Magistrate is difficult to deal with, then
After looting outside the city, they moved to Pingjiang County further north.
Anyway, he doesn't want to fight with King Zhao, who is much more difficult to deal with than the officers and soldiers!
The rebels who were responsible for opening the door to the two thieves waited until midnight, but no sound of fighting came from the other side. They immediately realized that there was something wrong, and guessed that their boss must have escaped, so they opened the city gate and started to escape.
The commotion became louder and louder. Li Zheng immediately sent troops across the river. With only 500 men, he killed thousands of rebels and fled, and even captured more than 800 prisoners.
…
The commanding officer sent by Li Zheng to attack Pingxiang was named Wan Sitong. He was a descendant of a wealthy family and became a gangster in Ji'an Prefecture.
During the confrontation between Zhao Han and Xie Xuelong, Wan Sitong led more than a dozen gangsters to join the army, claiming to be homeless people from Ji'an Prefecture. They were broken up and organized into various battalions.
This man has experienced many wars, and was finally promoted to the commander-in-chief of 500 troops during the last expansion of the army. However, he now led more than 2,000 people, with navy troops helping to transport baggage along the way, and quickly reached Pingxiang County.
Outside, they spread the news along the way that the King of Sweepers had been defeated.
Then it was discovered that all the bandits in Pingxiang County had escaped. They either hid in Wugong Mountain and became bandits, or fled directly across the border to Huguang.
Pingxiang County was captured without a single soldier.
Five hundred men were left to defend the city, and Wan Sitong led two thousand soldiers and immediately rushed back to the direction of Yuanzhou, intending to cooperate with Li Zheng to continue the siege of King Sweeper.
"Boss Wanbao, a large group of bandits have been discovered in the valley ahead!"
When Wan Si went to the army, he not only sent out sentry boats to explore the route, but also sent out mountain search teams to avoid being ambushed.
Most of the mountains along the river from Yuanzhou to Pingxiang extend horizontally, with many parallel valleys accessible.
King Sweeper led his troops and ran wildly for most of the night. When it was safe, he slept from dawn to noon, ate some dry food and continued the march. He had to quickly go to Pingxiang to gather troops and escape.
As a result, he was discovered by the search team sent by Wan Sitong in the middle of the afternoon.
"Old man, you take the lead." Wan Sitong said with a smile.
The black brother Tie Nu, now named Tie Hong, is wearing a pair of self-produced cotton armor from the Datong Army. He was broken up and incorporated into the army. Because of his bravery in battle, he can now command an army of one hundred people.
Wan Sitong was not in a hurry to attack, but instead led his troops over the hill ridge and went around to block the sweeper's retreat.
The Sweeping King looked at the sky and urged: "Everyone, hurry up, it's getting dark soon. After leaving the valley, I remembered there was a small town by the river. I went to grab some food and goods at night."
"Your Majesty, there is someone in front of you!" an old thief exclaimed.
The sky was a bit dark and it was too far away to see clearly.
The Sweeping King rubbed his eyes and muttered: "Are they reinforcements sent by Fei Shangtian?"
This guy was blocked by the Datong Army. He didn't know that Fei Shangtian was defeated in Huguang and had no chance to escape back to Pingxiang.
"But fourth child?" the sweeping king shouted at the top of his lungs.
The black guy who changed his name to Tie Hong replied: "I am your grandfather!"
The sweeping king was stunned, and suddenly shouted in fear: "Run!"
Hundreds of old thieves turned around and ran away, and the black guys carried big iron bars and led the troops in pursuit. This guy's legs were much longer than Huang Yao's, and he was still walking as fast as he was wearing cotton armor. In the blink of an eye, he left the soldiers more than ten steps behind.
.
Wan Sitong led his troops over the hill ridge and arrived in the valley.
"Array up!"
The Sweeping King's retreat was blocked, and Wan Sitong stood ready to wait for him.
The sweeper king was so frightened that he turned around and rushed up the mountain ridge. The mountain to the north was steep, so they subconsciously fled to the mountain ridge near the river to the south, where Wan Sitong had just climbed the mountain.
"kill!"
There were still a thousand soldiers who stayed on the mountain and did not come down, so they ran into King Sweeper head on.
Encountered three consecutive times by powerful enemies, hundreds of old thieves instantly collapsed and quickly turned downhill again, fleeing toward the steep mountains to the north.
The black man had already rushed over alone, one man with a stick, and killed himself among hundreds of old thieves.
These old thieves were scared to death. Not to mention maintaining their formation, many even threw away their weapons. It seemed that losing weight would speed up their escape.
The two ends of the stick were made of wrought iron and the middle was made of mulberry wood.
The black guy swung out his stick and knocked down two old thieves. Then he knocked over another thief and went straight to the Sweeper King to kill them.
"Ghost!"
"It's the Yaksha soldiers recruited by King Zhao Tian!"
"..."
The bandits who were so close finally saw what the black guy looked like. They were so frightened that they peeed and ran away from wherever they passed along the way.
Seeing the black guys charging towards him, the Sweeping King was so frightened that he was paralyzed, thinking that King Zhao could really recruit heavenly soldiers and generals.
Otherwise, why is this person covered in darkness?
Otherwise, why was he sneaking into the valley only to be suddenly surrounded on three sides?
"Grandpa Yasha, spare your life!"
The sweeper king had no courage to resist and knelt down to kowtow to the black guy.
The black guy is a bit murderous. He doesn't even know how to capture the victims alive, so he just knocks them down with a stick.
"Poof!"
If you hit your head with an iron rod, please imagine a smashed watermelon.
Seeing this, the rebels nearby were paralyzed with fear, and one after another they knelt down and begged for mercy.
There are too many people to kill, so the black guy specializes in chasing down those who don't surrender. He can kill a kid with a stick, and there is no second move to kill him. He doesn't have any stick skills at all, he just relies on his height and strength, and he can take action
The speed is very fast.
After the battle, Wan Sitong came over, looked at the sweeper whose head was smashed, and couldn't help complaining: "Old Tie, next time you hit someone with a stick, can you change the place? I haven't had my damn dinner yet.
Woolen cloth."
Tie Hong, who had been so brave and invincible just now, was scratching his head and grinning, revealing two rows of white teeth.
He felt that his life was very happy. He was caught by the chief when he was more than ten years old, sold to those red-haired people, and took a big ship to the East.
The cabin was very crowded. Not only was there a lack of water and food, but there was also a lack of oxygen and ventilation. More than ten black slaves who were with him died of illness.
Because he was tall and strong, the red-haired man specially kept him and sent him to Guangzhou to sell him, so that the rich merchants of the Ming Dynasty could pay a higher price.
He first worked as a housekeeper and a nurse, and worked as a follower for a wealthy businessman in the Ming Dynasty. Because he could not understand the language, the wealthy businessman thought he was too stupid, and often punished him by beating, scolding, and starving him.
One day, Fei Yinggon came and led bandits to rob wealthy businessmen. He took the opportunity to escape with Fei Yinggon.
Nowadays, life is getting better. He married a widow in Tianhe Town. The widow brought a cheap son and gave him a biological son last year. The family business has reached a new peak.
As for things in Africa, he has almost forgotten about it, and his future name will be Tie Hong.
At night, the soldiers lighted fires to keep warm and eat.
Tie Hong chewed dry food and asked: "I heard that the emperor is the greatest. When will the general become the emperor?"
"How do I know?" Wan Sitong also began to look forward to it, "Everyone guesses that we can conquer Jiangxi within three years, sweep Jiangnan within ten years, and enter Beijing in fifteen years!"
"I know Beijing, but where is Jiangnan?" Tie Hong asked curiously.
Wan Sitong said with a smile: "You will know the various mansions in the south of the Yangtze River and the colorful world when the time comes."
Tie Hong said: "I just thought that the chief would become the emperor and build a big ship to fight back to my hometown. I want to catch the chief and ask him why he sold me to the red-haired man!"
