Chapter 2121 Gui Zi Scroll Grass Wild Dragon Snake, with great ambitions
"No one expected that the situation would suddenly turn like this!" The young woman in a red silk shirt and skirt still looked into the distance, but her tone was full of disappointment and regret, "We are just one step too late.
How come Kuang Zhengcao turned traitor?"
"If Datu Falcon Village and Boluosi Village hadn't stabbed each other in the back, maybe Boyan Village and Baitang Village wouldn't have failed!" The woman clenched her fists tightly with both hands, her face full of anger, "I can only regret that that big liar Kuang Tiangeng is still here.
I swore in front of me that they would never surrender to the government, and that we must unite to bring down the entire northern Shaanxi..."
The young woman laughed, glanced at her somewhat innocent sister-in-law, and said calmly: "I just want to listen to these words. It is not Mr. Kuang who can make the decision in Big Rabbit Falcon Village. Although his father is old, he can
If the power is not given to him, he may not be able to do it even if he wants to."
"But his father also kept saying before that only by uniting everyone can we avoid being defeated by the government, not just our border village, but also the rebels in other places." The woman gritted her silver teeth and shook her pink fist fiercely.
"Rebellion and surrender to the enemy even after hearing the words, this kind of behavior is too despicable."
The sister-in-law's indignation did not affect the young woman's mood. From the moment she learned the news, she was thinking about how to deal with it.
Among the more than ten border villages along the way from Suide to Mizhi, except for the four major villages of Boyan Village, Baitang Village, Big Rabbit Falcon Village and Boluosi Village, the dozen or so border villages that have been born are all small and medium-sized villages.
Yuerhe Village and Longquan Village where he is located are the representatives.
There are some differences between Dazhai and small and medium-sized border villages.
Dazhai has a large population, and there are more issues to consider. Even I can understand that the old, weak, women and children in a Dazhai can easily cost two to three thousand. These are all living people. They have to eat and wear. Winter and spring are the most difficult times.
, if you can't survive it, you have no choice but to leave the village and die, which also forces these villages to compromise more easily when facing a survival crisis.
The situation in small and medium-sized border villages is more complicated and various situations exist.
For example, in Yu'er Hezhai, Yu Changhe was originally an officer in the Yulin Army. He came out due to illness and had inextricable connections with the Yulin Army. It was unrealistic for them to attack the government. Recruitment was their biggest wish.
Another example is the Xili Village (Zhai) next to it. This is a border village dominated by Tumut people. It was originally a group of Tumut horse bandits, with only forty or fifty people. But starting from the border ten years ago,
More and more Tumut herdsmen came from the north, and some Han horse thieves also joined in. The number quickly exceeded 500,000, and now it is close to 1,000.
There is also the Sanzu Village (Zhai) in the west, which was built by a postman who escaped from prison in Suidezhou. Although the postman later died, he absorbed the surrounding landless peasants and the number of fugitive soldiers increased, and it quickly became a
Second only to the four big villages, it is the first of the small and medium-sized border villages, with a population of more than 1,500 people.
Of course, the main sources of personnel for border villages are refugees and disaster victims. This is the same for every border village, but the leaders in the dominant positions have different origins, experiences, and thoughts.
For example, Yu Changhe from Yuerhe Village originally hoped to have the opportunity to rejoin the border army and be recruited; for example, Modelun and Qiu Zixiong from Boyan Village and Baitang Village were ambitious and wanted to separate themselves; and Xili Han Sai of the village, his elite men are Tumut horse bandits and Han horse bandits, they don't have much other thoughts, they just want to plunder everywhere; Ma Jinbao of the Sanzu village, who claims to have a hundred thousand, even wants to take advantage of Ningxia With both the town and Gansu town becoming increasingly weak, they dominated the northern part of Yan'an Prefecture and even dared to attack the Yulin Army.
But this was all the thoughts of the previous border villages. With successive years of severe drought, the thoughts of all the leaders of the border villages gradually converged on one thing: to survive.
If you survive, the people in the village can survive. This is the most basic idea.
However, the food stored in the village was becoming increasingly empty, and anyone who looked at it would feel panicked. Therefore, Boyan Village, Baitang Village and other border villages were established and they went south to capture Yiheyi City first, and then went straight to Wubao City. The city wall of Wubao City is low and it is close to the Hedong Ferry. Is it intended to be a food and material distribution center?
Fight against Suide, Mizhi, Jiazhou, and Anding. As long as they can get food, no one will hesitate to fight. But the key is whether it is worth fighting against these cities?
Suide, Mizhi and Jiazhou are all difficult to fight. The city walls are much taller than Wubao, and the number of guardsmen and civilians is also large. They are also too close to Yulin Town. No one is sure whether the Yulin army will suddenly come out from behind. One knife.
All border villages and even the rebels in various places are now focusing on this issue, which is to seize food and seize more food. Otherwise, there will be no food to eat this winter and next spring, and there will be only a dead end.
As for each family's thoughts, ambitions and desires, we can only put them aside for the time being.
There is another problem that has been haunting these border villages and other rebel armies.
Even if these county towns are captured, will the captured food be enough?
If there’s not enough to eat, what’s the next step?
Continue fighting all the way, to the west, or to the east and south?
Hit Xi'an or cross Hedong?
What if you have enough to eat? Keep living one day at a time?
It is impossible for the government to stop here. Now the government and army have conquered Jiangnan because of the northwest army's march eastward. But after conquering Jiangnan, they will definitely move westward again. So what should we do?
If you hope that the imperial court will not be able to conquer the south of the Yangtze River, then of course it is good. If the world is in chaos, then everyone will show their magic. But this hope seems a bit slim to Zhubianzhai, except for himself.
The news coming from Beijing is that it is still hoped that the situation in Shaanxi will continue to hold back the imperial court. It is best to join forces with Shanxi to bring the entire situation in Shanxi and Shaanxi into play. This can greatly hold back the four northwest countries. The two towns of Shanxi and Datong were unable to escape.
The situation in Beizhi and Shandong is not mature yet. According to the wishes of the middle and high-level leaders of the church, it will be delayed for a while. After the Northwest Army and Sun Chengzong's northern army have all moved south to the south of the Yangtze River, Beizhi and Shandong are the most suitable. At that time, Fengzhou Bailian was able to take advantage of the Mongolian troops to invade the pass. In this way, by cooperating with the inside and outside, he would be able to completely overthrow the imperial court.
Hong Yingzhen took a deep breath, she still made some mistakes.
In fact, when the news came from Beijing, I had specifically reminded myself that the governor named Feng had frequently attacked believers in the sect in Yongping Mansion and Shuntian Mansion. In Yongping Mansion, he even forced the sect leader to leave for shelter.
In addition, they also used the power of the government to clear out the believers who were living in the refugee and work-for-relief situations. Later, it even affected the Jizhen army.
After arriving at Shuntian Prefecture and becoming the Prime Minister, he colluded with Long Jinwei and the imperial court's criminal department to explore the secrets of the sect, intending to wipe out the foundation of the sect in Beijing. Fortunately, the young master and the others were alert enough and were not caught by them.
Handle, I didn’t expect that this guy would patrol Shaanxi again and extend his devil’s claws to Shaanxi again.
Hong Yingzhen also heard that the church had actually assassinated this guy on his way to Shaanxi, and he was also the same guy as himself, but he didn't expect that he still missed it.
But even so, Hong Yingzhen didn't pay too much attention to it. Being able to use government means to deal with the believers didn't mean that they could cause much trouble in Shaanxi, especially when they heard that the other party was just a young boy in his early twenties, from the Hanlin Academy.
She didn't even care about her background in editing.
If his father Feng Tang comes, Hong Yingzhen will definitely take it seriously, but there are so many tiger fathers and dogs, what can a guy with a scholar background do?
Who would have thought that this guy would actually make a false shot in Datong, cross the river directly from Qikou, and cause such a big disturbance in Wubao, abruptly breaking up the climax that had finally been set off in the northern part of Yan'an Prefecture.
It was only then that Hong Yingzhen really regretted it. If she had known earlier, she should have led her troops to follow Modren and Qiu Zixiong, and she would not have allowed this man named Feng to bribe Kuang Zhengcao and Jing Zhizhong to attack them.
The reason why Hong Yingzhen did not lead her army southward but stayed on the border was because she wanted to take advantage of Modlun and Qiu Zixiong's momentum to defeat Wu Fort in one fell swoop, mobilize the surrounding villages together, and take advantage of the opportunity to cooperate inside and outside to capture Suide.
.
All these plans have been laid out. Once Wubao's side succeeds in siege and triumph, they will launch an offensive to capture Suide, and then the whole situation in northern Shaanxi will open up.
Who would have thought that after the Wubao siege failed, the surrounding villages became a little embarrassed, and the internal officers in Suide City also became somewhat ambiguous, and this battle could no longer be fought.
Thinking of this, Hong Yingzhen couldn't help but sigh, her efforts have failed.
The conspirators in Suide City have spent a lot of effort to lay down, and they are just waiting for this fatal blow. As long as Suide City is captured, they will be connected to Wubao, and Mizhi and Jiazhou will be isolated in the northeast.
Corner, Anding, the security guards can contact Qingyang, and the rebels from Pingliang capture it in one fell swoop.
The Yulin Army is restrained by the Mongols and Fengzhou Bailian, so almost the entire northern Shaanxi region, except for the area immediately adjacent to the Yulin Army, can fall into our own hands.
Now how to do?
Hong Yingzhen fell into deep thought. It was unrealistic to fight against Suide. Moreover, according to reports from Mizhi City, Yulin Commander He Shixian also went to Mizhi City. He should have gone to meet the man named Feng. What would happen next?
do what?
Attack the border village?
In the south, Modlen and Qiu Zixiong seemed to have retreated to the Yuqingyu area and then disappeared, while Jing Zhizhong and Kuang Zhengcao did not take advantage of the victory to pursue Modlen and the others. The whole situation was in such a strange stalemate.
There are rumors that Modlun and Qiu Zixiong seem to be surrendering to the army and seeking to be recruited. It is possible, but Hong Yingzhen does not believe that Modlun and Qiu Zixiong are so ambitious that they will surrender in just one battle?
