Just when the corruption case for the imperial mausoleum in Shenjing was triggering a large-scale prison sentence - Henan Province, Runing Prefecture, Luoshan County

Outside the county town, the spring breeze of February of the 15th year of Chongping blew across the endless plains of southern Henan. In the fields, large tracts of wheat seedlings that should have been green turned yellow and withered, and stripes appeared on the ground. Cracked strips.

Farmers in shabby clothes and stooped bodies walked between the fields and the river. They carried wooden buckets on their shoulders with bamboo poles. They carried water from the river that had dried up to their knees. They returned to the fields and bent down to water them.

Last winter in Henan Province, the weather was unfavorable and there was no heavy snowfall. However, when spring came, we saw a sharp wind but no rain.

Runing Mansion, Luoshan County Government Office, the two courtyards and the main hall are crowded with people. Generals wearing Han uniforms and armors are sitting around the table. Next to the high-ranking generals, there are women in gorgeous clothes and beautiful flowers to accompany them. .

The sound of changing cups and cups and shouting and drinking floated through the green eaves and red walls towards the streets outside the Luoshan County government office. Farmers in the sunset pushed up wheelbarrows that raised dust and heard the voices inside the county government office. , glanced at it curiously, and detoured with disgust and fear.

Soldiers pass by like a comb, bandits pass by like a grate.

Qian Yushan, the prefect of Runing Prefecture, is in his early forties, short and fat, fair-skinned, and wearing a blue official robe. This Runing's parents, officials, were also from Kejia.

At this moment, Qian Yushan was holding a wine bowl and entertaining the relevant generals of the Henan Dusi, including the commander of the Henan Dusi, Tan Peng. At the same time, he invited a woman from Xingyuefang, the largest brothel in Runing Prefecture, to accompany him, which added to the official atmosphere. Pushed to climax.

It turned out that Gao Heita and Ma Liu, two bandits who had been entrenched in Jigong Mountain since last year, led the bandits in the village to attack Luoshan County, killed officials, opened warehouses and released grain, and the Runing government reported to Henan. Then Zhou Dezhen, the governor of Henan, and Tan Peng, the commander of the capital of Henan, jointly signed and titled the memorial, which was urgently delivered over six hundred miles to the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army.

Then, in the first month of the first month, the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion selected five generals, headed by First Class Boniu Jizong, to go to Henan Mansion to supervise the suppression of bandits.

Qian Yushan of Runing Prefecture was personally entertaining this person at this moment. As for the former magistrate of Luoshan County, his head had long been beheaded by the bandits from Jigong Mountain because the imperial court was investigating the plan from top to bottom and no one had yet been appointed to take over.

Tan Peng, the commander of the Henan Dusi, is in his early forties. He is slightly thinner and fair-skinned. He is wearing a wingless crown with a mountain shape on his head. He is holding a black porcelain and white-bottomed wine bowl and paying homage to Niu Jizong beside him. liquor.

"General Niu is a descendant of a famous family. Now he is leading troops to control Henan and supervise the suppression of bandits. We, your elders and elders in Runing, are like the rain comes after a long drought." Qian Yushan, the prefect of Runing, raised his wine cup with a smile and complimented Niu Jizong.

Niu Jizong was now wearing the bullfighting uniform given by the earl. Compared with before,

He looked down and out in Beijing, but now he is in high spirits in the prefecture and county, with a smile on his rough face.

It's just that he holds two gorgeously dressed women in his arms, which somewhat undermines the resolute and fruitful style of painting. The man is holding a wine bowl in one hand, and the other big hand is dishonest, which attracts the teasing of the woman in his arms.

Niu Jizong laughed loudly and said: "Prefect Qian is too polite. He said that General Lai also came to Runing Mansion in the early years. At that time, he led troops to assist Huguang Dusi in suppressing the water bandits in Dongting Lake. It has been more than ten years ago."

As he spoke, he picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp, his beard stained with wine.

Qian Yushan smiled and said: "General Niu is generous!"

The woman on the side also knew what was going on. She quickly took a handkerchief and said with a smile: "Why is the general drinking so hard?"

Niu Jizong said with a smile: "I, Old Niu, are not only strong in drinking, but also strong in other things. Do you want to know?"

All the generals and commanders around laughed.

Qian Yushan smiled and said: "General Niu is now revisiting his old place."

Tan Peng said with a smile: "Prefect Qian didn't know something. General Niu led 6,000 troops in the northwest, went deep into Qingtang, and shocked the enemy chiefs. The bandits in Jigong Mountain area are no problem!"

Peng Guolin, the commander of the Henan capital who was sitting not far away, also smiled and said: "I grew up listening to the heroic deeds of Zhen Guogong back then. Now General Niu is fierce and fierce, and has the legacy of his ancestors. He is really a queen of a famous family, very special." Out of the ordinary.”

This was a compliment to Niu Jizong's ancestors. Niu Jizong, the first-class Zhenguo bull, Qing Niu Jizong, couldn't help but feel even more proud. He waved his hand and said with a smile: "My generation (this chapter is not finished yet!)

Chapter 532: Rebellion in Henan

If a warrior lives his or her life in peace, he should not be beholden to his ancestors, so he should get the merit by relying on his three-foot sword! We can't always mention the merits of our ancestors. Since this dynasty, the titles have been reduced to lower levels. If I, Lao Niu, had rested on my father's merits, I wouldn't have the title of first-class earl today! "

"Okay, if you don't show kindness to your ancestors, you will get the three-foot sword!" Someone cheered loudly at this time.

All the generals applauded Niu Jizong for his heroic and generous words.

Seeing this scene, Niu Jizong blinked his eyes and thought to himself, this special girl, why should she not be grateful to her ancestors? She will get her fame with the three-foot sword!

This was what he "borrowed" from Jia Heng's son, and he actually won a lot of praise!

Damn it!

No wonder Liu Fang said that this kid likes to make big talk and deceive the world and steal his reputation, such as the "Ping Lu Policy" and the fifteen years of Ping Liao. He almost deceived the Holy Emperor and couldn't find the north!

He, Lao Niu, was too honest and honest before and couldn't tell lies!

Tan Peng looked at his generals who were cheering and cheering, smiled and said: "Listen, you all, this is the first-class uncle of our country, the mainstay!"

With that said, he raised his wine bowl, saluted it towards Niu Jizong, and said loudly: "The last general will give another toast to the general!"

Although the man in front of him was the founding Duke of the country, he was no longer the governor of the Beijing camp, but he was still a big shot that he could not afford to offend.

Moreover, he had received instructions from the Prince of Nan'an and Liu Tongzhi. This time Yiwai Bo Niu Jizong came here to perform meritorious service and seek revenge, and would not stay in Henan Dusi for a long time.

But this time, the Henan Dusi dispatched Henan Guard, Xuanwu Guard, Zhangde Guard, and Nanyang Guard, and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses entered Jigong Mountain to suppress the Jigong Mountain. Together with the Runing Guard, 13,000 people were enough to wipe out the Jigong Mountain bandits. ! Chen Han's military system was ruined, from the central camp in Beijing to the local garrison.

The original strength of 1,100 soldiers per 1,000 households was reduced to only 600 to 700 soldiers due to the vacant positions occupied by the generals, and most of them were old and weak. The original number of soldiers of the Henan Dusi was 50,000 to 60,000, but the actual number was only 30,000. Currently, more than 10,000 soldiers and horses have been mobilized, plus the 3,000 soldiers and horses of Runing Guard, which is enough to deal with the only 4,000 bandits in Jigong Mountain. In the evening, the generals of Henan Dusi were almost drunk. They each hugged Wenxiang Nephrite and staggered out of the government office under Qian Yushan's arrangement. Niu Jizong entered the specially prepared wing in the backyard of the government office to rest.

And just a stone's throw from the Luoshan County government office, there is a signboard for "Hongtong Inn" hanging on the second floor.

A tall and burly man, dressed in coarse cloth and wearing a bamboo hat, looked at the officers and generals coming in and out of the Luoshan County government office through a slightly opened window.

"The military discipline of these officers and generals has been corrupted. When they arrived in Luoshan County, they still only knew how to engage in prostitution. They did not think of good strategies to defeat the enemy. This shows that the Chen Han Dynasty has exhausted its power!" the man said coldly.

The person is Gao Heita.

Of course, this is just a nickname. Gaoheita's original name is Gao Yue. He got this nickname just because he is eight feet tall and has a dark complexion.

Gao Yue has extraordinary physical strength, is good at riding and shooting, and loves to use two swords. He was originally a powerful merchant from Yanqing Prefecture, Shaanxi Province. He made a living by selling horses on the grasslands. Later, he was angry and killed the anti-smuggling patrol, and was wanted by the government. After hiding, he went into hiding. , led a group of brothers to leave the capital of the Han Dynasty and fled to Jinghu and other places where bandits were infested.

Over the years, the core brothers of Thirty-Six Cavalry gradually formed around me, and they joined forces with the leaders of the rebels in Jinghu and other places. Facing the government troops coming from Huguang to suppress the army, they defeated the encirclement and suppression several times, but in the end they could not withstand the continuous flow of people. The government troops suppressed and arrested the bandits in Huguang and other places. They either hid in the mountains or swamps, or fled to Bashu and other places. In the thirteenth year of Chongping, Gao Yue led about five to six hundred remnants into Jigong Mountain.

Because Henan has suffered repeated natural disasters in recent years, coupled with the corruption and incompetence of the government, and intensified exploitation, the people have been unable to bear the suffering and have fled to Shaanluo, Beijing and other places for food. This undoubtedly laid a solid foundation for the Gao Yue uprising. Recruiting refugees, robbing the rich and giving to the poor, he was frequently active at the junction of southern Henan and northern Jingzhou, and echoed the water bandits in Jianghan Dongting. Chen Han's officers and soldiers repeatedly failed to suppress them, so they turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye.

A few years later, more than 3,000 elite bandits gradually gathered around Gao Yue. After a series of battles, they gradually merged with the local bandits Ma Liu and other tribes of Runing Prefecture who were originally entrenched in Jigong Mountain and were active in the Runing Prefecture area.

Luoshan County was broken into several years ago, and warehouses were opened to release grain and provide relief to the victims. It was only for a while that the imperial court noticed it. Coupled with the influence of Jia Heng's suppression of the Third Fu last year, the Ministry of War's order to suppress the campaign became more urgent. The Henan Capital Division urgently mobilized officers and troops. Suppress and arrest.

Compared to ordinary thieves, (this chapter is not over yet!)

Chapter 532: Rebellion in Henan

This is undoubtedly a group of professional rebels. "Brother, there are more than 10,000 officers and soldiers gathered here." Ma Liang beside him said.

The Henan Dusi mobilized more than 10,000 soldiers and horses from the guard posts in various places. They came to the nearby area in advance, and the number reached 5,000. The original Runing Guard also had 3,000 people, so the small Luoshan County had seven generals stationed there. Eight thousand people.

As time goes by, the Henan Dusi will eventually gather 15,000 people to encircle and suppress the bandits who have been entrenched in Jigong Mountain for two or three years, and report the victory to the court. At that time, Niu Jizong will take advantage of the situation and make a comeback.

Gao Yue said in a low voice: "Sixth brother, although there are many officers and soldiers, their combat power is low and vulnerable. Besides, we may not be unable to outmaneuver them. Now half of the generals and commanders of Henan Capital Sitai are here. In this way, we can catch them all and follow the trend." Runing Mansion is approaching Kaifeng Mansion, what do you think will happen?"

Luoshan County was previously defeated, and as soon as the Runing Guard troops arrived, Gao Yue led his troops to retreat to Jigong Mountain without entangled with the officials and troops. Therefore, the officials and troops did not know the specific combat strength of Gao Yue's troops.

Ma Liang's face was slightly shaken, and he was shocked by his eldest brother's courage, but he had not yet spoken.

Behind him, a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar in a blue shirt approached. He had a thin face, his hair was tied in a bun with a wooden hairpin, and he had a short beard under his chin. Under his thin eyebrows, his eyes were clear and focused, and he murmured: "Kaifeng Prefecture is a large provincial capital with no heavy troops to defend, and the defense can be said to be leaky. Governor Zhou Dezhen has the responsibility of guarding the territory, so he will urgently order the capital to mobilize troops from around Luoyang. If Kaifeng Provincial Prefecture is defeated, the world will be shaken, and all provinces will rebel. Everyone is coming to suppress us, is the general really ready?"

"The day before yesterday, news came from Zhao Da's family in Mangshan, Luoyang City. If Luoyang is empty, they can take the opportunity to start an uprising." Gao Yue said in a low voice.

There is also a rebel army in Henan that is active on the border between Henan and Shaanxi and is controlled by the Zhao brothers. It does not have many troops, only three to four hundred people, but it can sneak into Luoyang.

Seeing the middle-aged scholar's hesitation, Gao Yue had no choice but to persuade him: "Mr. Shao, I heard that last year the Beijing camp eliminated the old and weak and reorganized the troops. Previously, the three auxiliaries were wiped out. Now all the heroes in the three auxiliaries are killed by the imperial eagles and dogs. , otherwise, I would be like an uprising in the land of Heluo, and I can still respond more in Guanzhong. Sir, the longer we delay now, the longer it will take for the court to respond. This is in line with what the sir said at the time, that the land of Henan will be destroyed in one battle. Death, the world is in chaos, dragons and snakes rise from the land, only then will there be an opportunity to become a king, and the past and the future are contradictory."

Mr. Shao frowned and advised: "Today is different from the past. The world has not changed greatly. However, since the imperial court has the intention of reorganizing the army and practicing martial arts, it is bound to have a decisive battle with the Donglu. The general will wait a few more years until the world changes. , it is not too late to raise troops again to promote righteousness, fight against the Han Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty." Gao Yue shook his head and said: "Sir, time waits for no one. Nowadays, it is difficult for the people in the world, especially in Henan, Hebei, Shandong and other places, the people are suffering from border guards. , there have been numerous natural disasters, corrupt officials in the county have imposed excessive taxes, and the country gentry has oppressed the good. As long as we capture Kaifeng and Luoyang falls again, the world will be shaken, and everyone will respond, and the empire of Chen and Han will be shaken!"

As he spoke, he lowered his voice and whispered: "If we continue to wait and see, the Chen Han court is not only reorganizing the army, but also going south to rectify the salt affairs. It is also refreshing the official administration. It looks exciting and promising. If we continue to delay, until Chen Han If the imperial court frees up its hands, we can eradicate the scabies disease in adults with just a snap of our fingers."

It's not that he can't wait. Let's not talk about Chen Han's army's suppression and arrest. If he doesn't do anything, he will lose this kind of shelter. Let's just say that the imperial court looks exciting and promising now, and it will be more difficult to start trouble.

"But after all, the general was single and weak. He defeated the Henan army and attracted the attention of the court." Mr. Shao's face moved slightly, but he still advised.

"As long as we attract the attention of the imperial officers and soldiers, the White Lotus sect members in Shandong, Nanzhili and other places will respond in large numbers. At that time, there will be wars everywhere and rebels will rise everywhere. Great things can be expected." Gao Yue's eyes were clear and he said with high spirits: " Sir, today's Chen-Han court, especially in Henan, is like a broken house, which will collapse with just one kick."

Mr. Shao frowned and said in a low voice: "General, those families are just afraid of sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between tigers and letting us fight to the death with the imperial court. They are reaping the benefits of the fishermen."

In this way, he becomes the pioneer of becoming a king.

"Sir, there are always important people to initiate righteous deeds. If everyone is cowardly and waits and waits, they will only be defeated by the Chen and Han Dynasty. If we succeed, it will also inspire people, and they will also start in advance. If we fail, but It’s just dormant again, moving to other places, the world is so big, there is always a place to stay.”

He only (this chapter is not finished yet!)

Chapter 532: Rebellion in Henan

As long as a few hundred core brothers are still there, they can be broken into parts. When the world changes, it won't happen once or twice anyway.

Seeing that Gao Yue had made up his mind, Shao Yingchen thought for a while and stopped trying to persuade him. There was a firmness in his eyes and he whispered: "Since the general has made up his mind, we can launch a campaign in Luoshan County in the near future. We should cooperate internally and externally to win the victory." These generals then took advantage of the fact that the army had not gathered to defeat several other reinforcements and captured Runing Mansion."

When we were in the granary of Dakailuoshan County, we had already hidden many internal agents in the city, and even buried tunnels. It can be said that we have a good underlying foundation in the local area, otherwise we would not dare to see the strength of the army under the noses of the army.

It has to be said that the unorganized local army of Chen and Han was almost rotten to the core. In the face of a powerful enemy, they were completely unaware of the dangers right under their noses.

Gao Yue smiled and said: "What you said is true, so let's follow your advice."

This is Mr. Shao. Even if there were differences before, once he made up his mind, Mr. Shao could quickly help him make suggestions. Mr. Shao thought for a while, looked solemn, and warned: "Even if the general takes advantage of the opportunity to go north to capture Kaifeng Mansion, we cannot stay in Henan and other places for too long. If we encounter heavy attacks by the army, we should quickly return to Runing and turn around. Go south, advance towards Jinling via Huainan, and cannot hold out for long."

This is the strategy of rogue bandits, because if it doesn't sweep the world and destroy the ruling foundation of the dynasty at the beginning, it will basically bring chaos to the world.

For fear that Gao Yue would have the idea of ​​staying in the place where the Fourth War was for a long time, Mr. Shao almost made it clear in advance.

"Don't worry, sir, I'm awake." Gao Yue said in a low voice with a solemn expression.

Chen Han was in Jiangnan and other places, as well as Jiangbei and Jiangnan camps, guarding the old capital of Nanjing, which was not easy to conquer. After entering Jianghuai, he could go north to Shandong and play hide-and-seek with the army.

After all, it still depends on the final result of this uprising. If Henan is not destroyed, there will be no way to advance into Jianghuai. At that time, the tribe will need to be dispersed and broken into pieces for the future. .
