Seeing Chen Xing looking at him doubtfully, Huang Dengyuan explained: "Never mention the issue of slave-building. No one knows what these people are thinking now. They are also desperate. If they rise up and surrender to the slave-building people,
Mind you, we are the ones who are finished."
Only then did Chen Xing realize that these people were no longer soldiers. After they burned, killed and looted, they had already lost their moral bottom line. No one could predict what they would do.
"Sir, what should we do?"
"Contact them and tell them that we are going to attack Tong Jianye and divide their property. Ask them if they will participate. If they participate, Tong Jianye will be destroyed and we will only get 30%. The rest will be given to them," Huang Tengyuan said.
Chen Xing thought for a while and said: "My lord's clever idea, we only have 1,300 people in our hands, and those dozen groups of rebels have a total of 3,000 people. However, their strength is not as good as ours, so it is very reasonable for us to take the lead. In addition,
, it’s definitely interesting if we take one-third, otherwise they wouldn’t dare say anything if we take half.”
"Yes, money touches people's hearts. Tong Jianye bullied them during this rebellion. He robbed all the good things. Everyone dared to be angry but dare not speak out. This time, if we come forward, they will definitely have grievances and revenge.
.”
Chen Xing said with some worry: "Sir, there are so many people, what if someone inside is unwilling to tip off Tong Jianye and the others?"
Huang Tengyuan said with a sneer: "Don't pay attention to those outside the customs. Only contact those inside the customs. If they can't get out of the customs, they will report nothing."
Chen Xingdao: "Sir, let's finish the fight and leave immediately. Should we take these people with us or leave them behind?"
Huang Tengyuan said: "With Tong Jianye's two thousand troops, we can only go on our own. However, if we kill this grandson, we will be the largest force. We are not afraid of these small groups of troops who will not listen to us. We can take them all away."
. When we get to the place, break up the mixed group, so we don’t have to worry about losing control. In this way, we have a strength of 6,000 people, which is enough to protect ourselves on the grassland."
Chen Xing immediately made up his mind and said: "I will contact their leader right away. Sir, please wait for my news."
Huang Tengyuan said: "Okay, it's not convenient for me to come forward, so you go first. By the way, send a message to Tong Jianye and the others first. Just tell me that I will prepare a banquet in Guancheng tomorrow afternoon. I will entertain more than a dozen leaders and let his soldiers and horses do the work."
It’s good to prepare for entering Guancheng. If these people agree to come with us, just give up. If anyone doesn’t want to, just deal with them at the banquet.”
Chen Xing praised: "Sir, what a good strategy. This will just paralyze them. Let's launch an attack tonight and catch them off guard."
Soon a sentry officer came to Tong Jianye's camp and informed him of the news.
Tong Jianye and others were very happy, seeing that Huang Tengyuan was set up by them. Judging from how quickly he responded to the message and took action, he was really tempted this time.
It was getting dark gradually, everything was normal in Guancheng, and the number of people patrolling did not increase.
The people sent by Tong Jianye to monitor the situation returned to the camp in the middle of the night, yawning.
In the early morning, when people are most sleepy and lazy, the door slowly opened. More than 4,000 people, fully armed, filed out.
They quietly headed towards Tong Jianye's camp five miles below the mountain outside the pass.
At night, some sentries in the camp were dozing off with their spears in hand. The wind lanterns hanging on the wooden poles were also swinging in boredom. There was still an hour before dawn. The sentries who checked the sentries had already gone back to sleep. The sentries also took the opportunity.
Be lazy and sleep.
The Ming Dynasty's border troops had already become lax in this era.
When Qi Jiguang was commanding Jizhen, he tried to change the problems of people being idle, indolent, lazy and derelict in their duties. He specifically used the Southern Army to set an example for them. It did achieve good results at that time.
However, after Qi Jiguang left office, these bad habits soon returned with a vengeance.
Soldiers and officers are all lazy and unwilling to endure hardships and receive training. They lie down when they can. They lie down when they can. Standing on guard and sentry are all fooling around. If you can be lazy, you can be lazy.
The quality of the army has long since disappeared and is in a state of decay.
After this riot, these soldiers also lost their respect for Shangguan. They felt more like a group of people living together. If they have interests, they will join together, and if they don't, they will break up.
They had no idea that more than 4,000 people had surrounded them from all sides.
Huang Tengyuan led his troops, divided them into thirteen sentries, and ambush in the southeast of Tong Jianye's camp. That was also the only way for them to escape to the Jiannu territory.
"Burn the camp with rockets and fire them." Huang Tengyuan ordered. His soldiers immediately bent their bows and arrows, lit the bows and arrows wrapped in grease, and then launched them towards the camp.
Whoosh! Countless bright spots in the dark night covered the camp.
Huang Tengyuan's soldiers were all carefully trained by himself. Including his own soldiers, there were a total of 1,600 people. He was one of the few generals in Jizhen who was neither greedy nor greedy and devoted himself to training and leading troops.
In Jizhen, and even in Jiubian, such a person is an outlier. His full number of troops is three thousand, and he eats half of his free pay. In addition to paying filial piety to his superiors, he lives a simple life and can almost share the joys and sorrows with the officers and soldiers.
So he also won the support of officers and soldiers.
He had long been extremely disappointed with Ming. He had no longer had any hope for Ming.
In his opinion, the future of the Ming Dynasty will only continue to rot and stink. Until one day, a natural disaster or a turmoil similar to the Yellow Turban will collapse the old empire.
Before this chaos, he had long thought of breaking away from the Ming Dynasty.
Now the grasslands have been wiped out by Uncle Dingyuan, and the Mongols don't even know where they are. There are thousands of miles of uninhabited areas, and wild beasts are rampant. There are too many places suitable for farming and animal husbandry.
He took his carefully trained men to herd horses and sheep outside the pass. How happy it was.
However, he didn't know that it wasn't that there were no people on the grassland. It was that Yang Fan was engaged in planting forage and settling in the grassland. In this case, all the Mongolians would be used up in several strongholds, leading to a concentration of the population. The original grassland on the grassland
Scattered populations have disappeared.
He doesn't know who controls the grassland now. What he knows is that the grassland has been emptied by Uncle Dingyuan and has become a vacuum zone. In fact, there has never been land without an owner in this world. It's just that you don't know who the landlord is.
During this turmoil, he ordered his subordinates not to rob gold and silver, but to collect livestock, grain, and cloth in large quantities, and to take away as many young and strong laborers as possible. He had already sent people to sort out the Uburg. He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.
Among the captured weapons, he collected a large number of bows and arrows. Almost every one of his men now has a bow and arrow. Almost all of his soldiers can shoot arrows. If there were no horses, he would even want to train them to ride horses.
Tong Jianye had two drinks in the evening and was sleeping soundly with the two top picks in his arms. He was completely unaware that countless rockets had fallen.
The rebels on all sides jumped up immediately when they saw the rocket falling, and their shouts of killing instantly flooded the camp.
