Jiang Sheng led his own soldiers to protect the supervisor Gao Qiqian, and ran all the way to the junction of Fengxiang Mansion and Xi'an Mansion.
They originally wanted to enter Fengxiang City, but they were approaching the edge of Fengxiang City.
Jiang Sheng saw the army of thieves in yellow organizing corvee labor and transporting the grain stored in their granaries.
They could only stay away, not daring to provoke these thieves in yellow.
They bypassed Fengxiang Prefecture and ran towards Hanzhong Prefecture.
Jiang Sheng was frightened out of his wits. The military power of the thieves in yellow was too great.
He had tried his best, but there was nothing he could do if he couldn't defeat him.
Gao Qiqian saw Jiang Sheng reining in the horse and stopped.
Lying on the horse's back, he finally straightened up.
"Did we escape?
My ass was worn out.
When has our family ever suffered such a serious crime? "
It has been many years since Gao Qiqian, and I have never run wildly without risking my life on a horse.
"Eunuch Gao, I will find you a carriage immediately.
Now that the thief in yellow is not chasing us, we don't have to run on horseback. "
Jiang Sheng sent his soldiers to grab a carriage in the surrounding villages.
While waiting for the soldiers to return, he helped Gao Qiqian down from his horse.
"Eunuch Gao, what should we do if we are defeated?"
Jiang Sheng had a headache. The defeat was almost annihilating the entire army. He didn't know if he could save his life.
Gao Qiqian said calmly: "Don't worry, your life will not be lost.
This time, Yang He, the governor of the three sides, was in charge of the war. He was the commander-in-chief of the army.
Put all the blame on him. "
Gao Qiqian saw Jiang Sheng's soldiers driving a carriage back.
He was sitting in the carriage.
Let the little eunuch grind it for him, Gao Qiqian endured the pain.
He wrote an inscription to Emperor Chongzhen and reported on the situation of the suppression of the bandits in yellow.
In the title book, it is written that Gao Qiqian was decisive in the face of trouble and suggested sending troops from multiple directions to attack the thieves in yellow.
Yang He, the governor of the three sides, acted arbitrarily. In order to please the emperor, he fell into the trap of the thief in yellow.
Directly attack the fortified city where the yellow robed thieves are well prepared.
Gao Qiqian found a way to crack the mine array of the thieves in yellow, allowing the army to pass through the mine array intact.
Yang He, the governor of the three sides, had military power. He did not listen to his opinions and divided his troops to advance rashly.
He asked Jiang Sheng, the commander-in-chief of Yansui, to use weak troops to surround the strong city. As a result, Jiang Sheng was outnumbered and the entire army was destroyed.
Yang He knew that Yansui general Jiang Sheng's army had been wiped out, but he did not learn his lesson.
Yang He was incompetent in commanding the troops, causing the army to roar.
The thieves in yellow took the opportunity to attack, and the army was immediately defeated.
Gao Qiqian only wrote half of it, and he didn't specify Yang He's fate.
Yang He, the governor of the three sides, was killed, captured, and surrendered.
The content of his question book will change.
Gao Qiqian moved into Xi'an Mansion, and he received news one after another.
Many generals came back with more precise news.
Yang He, the governor of the three sides, was killed in battle, and his body was hung on a wooden frame to recruit surrendering officers and soldiers.
Less than 10,000 people escaped from the 100,000-strong army, and most of them were captured by the yellow-robed thieves.
Gao Qixian immediately finished writing the title and suggested that Emperor Chongzhen send elite soldiers and generals to prevent the yellow thieves from becoming bigger.
…
Hong Chengchou was rewarding soldiers in Yan'an Mansion.
As the governor of Yansui, the troops and horses he commanded were mainly those under the command of the general of Yansui.
These officers and soldiers followed Yang He, the governor of the three sides, to destroy the thieves in yellow.
Hong Chengchou could only recruit soldiers from the private sector and train elite soldiers.
Shaanxi has suffered from severe drought for several years, and the people have no food to eat. Only a small amount of salary is needed to recruit a large number of young people.
Hong Chengchou gave up Yang He's previous policy of mainly nurturing.
He changed to pay equal attention to suppression and appeasement, focusing on suppression.
The rebels in northern Shaanxi captured by Hong Chengchou were determined to kill all the rebel leaders.
The people who were threatened by rebels focused on appeasing them.
"Lord Governor, something happened."
Hong Chengchou's cronies broke in from outside. His face was pale, his eyes were a little distracted, and his hands were trembling.
When Hong Chengchou saw him like this, he knew that something important must have happened.
"Don't panic, tell me slowly, are the rebels planning to attack Suidezhou?
The rebels don't have the ability to attack fortresses. They can't attack the city and nothing big will happen. "
Hong Chengchou spoke to comfort him.
The confidant said in a trembling tone: "Sir Governor, I just received news that Mr. Yang Heyang, the governor of the three sides.
He went to exterminate the thieves in yellow, with an army of more than 100,000, and almost all of them were wiped out.
Master Yang He also died for his country. "
When Hong Chengchou heard the news, he was suddenly shocked.
The entire army of 100,000 people was wiped out. This was a big deal.
He is enough to change the fragile balance between officers and soldiers and rebels in Shaanxi.
There were 100,000 troops in Shaanxi before, but they failed to wipe out the rebels.
Now that the thieves in yellow and the anti-thieves are attacking from the north and south, the situation in Shaanxi is several times worse than before.
Hong Chengchou knew that he must use all means to protect the Yansui area.
Otherwise, don't say that he wants to win the position of Trilateral Governor.
Whether he can save his life in the hands of the rebels is unknown.
Hong Chengchou thought for a moment and asked his cronies to contact the rebel leader who had already expressed the intention to surrender.
He made promises to these rebel leaders that exceeded their previous demands.
Let these rebel leaders lead their troops to surrender.
Some rebel leaders were so greedy for profit that they brought their troops to surrender.
Hong Chengchou first entertained them with good wine and meat, and also gave them official positions.
Let these rebel leaders publicize their wealth and attract more rebels to surrender.
The rebels thought that Hong Chengchou was like Yang He, so they surrendered one after another, thinking that they were not living well and could rebel again.
Through this method, Hong Chengchou recruited and surrendered more than 10,000 rebels.
Hong Chengchou saw that there were no rebels coming to surrender.
He immediately ordered his followers: "In our Yansui area, there are more than 10,000 rebels who surrendered this time.
Make arrangements immediately to kill all these traitors. "
The henchman had bigger eyes and asked uncertainly.
"Lord Governor, have you killed all the traitors? That's more than 10,000 people."
Hong Chengchou ordered again: "You heard me right, convey my order accurately immediately, and leave none of these traitors behind."
The cronies took the order and went out to convey the order of Governor Hong Chengchou.
The officers and soldiers waved their butcher knives and killed all the traitors.
Hong Chengchou watched the officers and soldiers kill each other, and he knew he had no way out.
Yang He, the governor of the three sides, lost all the elite officers and soldiers of Shaanxi.
He could only use this method to weaken the strength of the rebels.
For the sake of his own career, he must nip all threats in the bud.
Hong Chengchou had all the heads of the rebels chopped off and embalmed with lime.
The human heads were placed outside the city of Yan'an Prefecture to deter the rebels in the surrounding area.
After Hong Chengchou finished this matter, he immediately wrote an inscription to Emperor Chongzhen about the suppression of bandits in Shaanxi.
He sat on the desk and was in a daze for a long time, thinking about how to write the question book.
It is impossible to quell the banditry by relying solely on Shaanxi's strength. It must obtain the support of the imperial court.
If you want to gain the support of the court, you must impress Emperor Chongzhen.
It is no longer possible to follow the steps step by step. We can only blow hard and take it one step at a time.
The first step has not been taken. With Yansui's current strength, he is in a dangerous situation.
Hong Chengchou wrote in the title book that if he was given two years, he could put down the rebels in northern Shaanxi.
In five years, the yellow-robed thieves in Hanzhong can be put down.
Hong Chengchou knew that Emperor Chongzhen was impatient and wanted the matter to be resolved quickly.
Yuan Chonghuan promised to level the Liao Dynasty in five years and reach the sky in one step.
He promised to defeat the thieves in five years, and he would also have the opportunity to become the governor of the three sides and fight for the future.
If he doesn't fight hard, he, the governor of Yansui, may not be able to survive the current situation for five years.
Hong Chengchou detailed his five-year plan to defeat thieves.
