After thinking for a while, Zhao Ansheng said: "Don't worry about this. According to the intelligence from Bianjing, these large-scale soldiers killed too hard in Gaodong, which aroused the dissatisfaction of all the courtiers. Now their right to kill first and report later has been taken away by the emperor." go back.
In the absence of evidence and explanation, they should not take action again.
Your main focus now should still be on Zhou Lin, Zuo Shilang.
He comes with the will of the court. Many times we cannot openly oppose him, but can only use some tricks behind his back. We must keep an eye on him to prevent him from thinking of other ways to solve the difficulties he is encountering today. "
After hearing this, the official Zhao Yi immediately nodded respectfully and promised: "Don't worry, head of the family, we have sent people to keep an eye on Zhou Lin, and we will never let him do anything under our noses!"
When Zhao Ansheng heard this, he nodded with satisfaction. He always felt at ease when the housekeeper was doing things, and he never made any mistakes.
…
The Zhao family is still secretly thinking about how to add some shoes to Zhou Lin.
Beside the river embankment, Li Dingguo had already led more than 10,000 people to cross the river one after another.
Yes, there are only more than 10,000 people, about 15,000 to be precise.
Li Dingguo determined that this counter-rebellion would not require an entire army attack. In addition, there was not much room for the cavalry to display in the pass, so he left five thousand cavalry to guard the province.
There was so much to do about the boats. As soon as the imperial decree came, people from Daxing County crossed the river in boats and came here.
This person was none other than He Xini, the county captain of Daxing County.
As soon as they met, He Xini rushed towards him with snot and tears. He was so frightened that Li Dingguo hurriedly took a few steps back to avoid him. He Xini had no time to brake and finally fell headlong onto the ground, his body twitching twice.
After He Xini got up, he quickly patted the dust all over his body because of what happened just now.
Like a socially awkward person, he put on a sad face again and told about his suffering these days since he skipped work and rebelled.
From his mouth, Li Dingguo learned about the current situation of the group of rebellious miners. The number of rebellious miners was nearly 200,000. The leader officially raised the mine manuscripts and injured the guards at the beginning. He was recognized by all the miners as a guiding light. Huanggang.
After entering Daxing County that day, these miners first captured the county government office and hung the county magistrate and county magistrate to death in the sun.
Afterwards, under Huanggang's guidance, these miners began to arrest the major mine owners in the city one by one.
Due to the developed mining industry in Daxing County, large mine owners from nearly seven cities in southeastern northern Hunan have settled in Daxing County.
As soon as these miners rebelled, they didn't even have time to run away. Except for those who happened to be away on business, the rest were arrested by these miners who hated them so much.
According to He Xini, according to the news he heard, these miners also held some kind of trial meeting in the city, allowing the miners to judge their own mine owners. If they were found guilty, they would be directly in front of the entire city. His face was struck to death with a pickaxe!
Only those who are not guilty will be spared.
But it seemed that no mine owner had been spared before they came here to pick up Li Dingguo.
As for himself, according to what He Xini said, he just happened to take 300 county soldiers out of the city for training, and that's when he escaped.
Otherwise, he himself might have been made into dried bacon along with his two colleagues.
Li Dingguo naturally didn't believe his explanation, and even sneered at it.
Seeing that either the opponent had escaped with his men or escaped, why did he just happen to be practicing outside the city?
He had never heard of any place where county soldiers would often go to drill outside the city.
This made it clear that it was just an excuse for He Xini.
But Li Dingguo didn't expose him, because it wasn't important.
When he started to ask him about the stockpile of supplies and weapons for defending the city in Daxing County.
Regarding this point, He Xini was actually quite proud and said: "General Ni can rest assured about this. Although there are still weapons in our weapons warehouse in Daxing County, they are either rotten or have been left for a long time and will break if touched lightly. .
As for the supplies to defend the city, those are even less available. Our Daxing County is inland, so even if Bianjing was besieged by the Huns, we would not suffer any harm.
Therefore, there is not much storage of city defense materials on weekdays. "
As soon as he said these words, Li Dingguo couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
Are there such people?
You are the county captain. Logically speaking, it is your responsibility to reserve these military supplies.
You actually dare to say no so confidently, I don’t know if you are really stupid or pretending to be stupid!
Shaking his head, Li Dingguo didn't know what to say.
But since it can be said that there are no such reserves in Daxing City, then things will be easier to handle.
Without making too many preparations, the army crossed the river, and after a slight repair, headed straight for Daxing County under the leadership of Li Dingguo.
In just one day, 15,000 troops arrived outside Daxing County.
At this time, Daxing County had long been under martial law after falling into the hands of the rioting miners, and all four city gates were closed.
Standing crookedly on the city wall were hundreds of guards observing the situation outside the city.
As soon as the Ping Japanese army arrived, I could hear a shout from the opposite side from a distance, but I couldn't hear it clearly because I was too far away.
But I think it's just like the army came to attack the city, so there won't be anything new.
Sure enough, after a while, densely packed heads of people quickly appeared on the city wall where there were originally only a few people. It must have been that they were urgently called to defend the city.
At the very center of the east gate of Daxing County, a man surrounded by people walked up to the top of the city and looked down the city.
When Li Dingguo saw it, Li Dingguo immediately stretched out his hand to the side, and someone immediately gave him a big iron speaker.
Aiming the loudspeaker at the city wall, Li Dingguo said loudly:
"I am Li Dingguo, the leader of the Japanese army. I have come to quell the rebellion on the orders of the Holy One. The rebels at the top of the city are listening!
If you surrender quickly now, I will leave you with a way to survive. If you continue to resist stubbornly, you will not be unprepared after the city is defeated! "
As soon as Li Dingguo finished shouting, there was an obvious commotion on the city wall. After all, they were just miners who were forced to rebel. It was inevitable to feel panic when facing the regular army of the imperial court.
But under what seemed to be Huanggang's calm, the commotion at the top of the city soon calmed down.
Immediately, Huanggang's answer was loudly passed down by everyone on the city wall.
"Hey! You, the lackeys of the imperial court, don't try to deceive us. You people of the imperial court are just the same type. Even if we surrender to you, you will never let us go."
If you want to attack the city, then attack the city. Our men will see the truth and stop talking nonsense! "
As soon as these words came out, Li Dingguo knew that there seemed to be no possibility of the other party surrendering.
So he stopped trying to persuade him to surrender and waved his hand to the army to find a place to station outside the city.
He was going to prepare some siege equipment.
Since the other party was going to resist stubbornly, he could only let them see how powerful the Ping Japanese Army was.
They are not just powerful cavalry!
