Chapter 219: Teaching chaos

Fu Zonglong, who was born in a Jinshi, stared at the non-commissioned officers all day long, as if he wanted to figure out some tricks. Ma Cheng said everything, and said everything. If Fu Zonglong sent out his troops to train, he would be a general who would stand alone.

A Jinshi who is knowledgeable and pragmatic in military affairs is the seed of this famous general with the characteristics of the late Ming Dynasty.

When the country is in trouble, there are always some bloody scholars who stand up and go to the national crisis together.

In July, wheat harvest season.

Due to drought and rain, the harvest in Shaanxi was extremely poor. After lingering in Xi'an Prefecture for more than ten days, it was hard to bear to ridicule the refugees as the leader, and whistled towards the ruined county where the official army camp was located.

There have been more than 200,000 refugees gathered in Xi'an Prefecture, including more than 50,000 weapons and organized rebels. 200,000 refugees are vast and covered with a radius of hundreds of miles, allowing them to survive.

The Kaiyuan Scout's scalp was also numb.

Wherever the brigade of refugees passed, the crops were extinct, and even the straw was eaten up. Messengers from all over the country rushed to the official army camp, but they were all turned away. The county governments had to organize the charity troops to defend the city and were unwilling to join the refugees.

The good people fled into the county town, but were attacked by the rebels for three days and nights, killing officials and robbing grain. The whole area of ​​Shaanxi was like a hell on earth, with wars everywhere, but the official camp still remained silent.

The rebels became more and more arrogant, and they rushed to the east to attack the official camp that had hoarded a large amount of food and grass.

Ma Cheng has already made tactical deception to the extreme. In recent days, the government and the people have been impeached. The Danzhang has probably been filled with imperial cases and has been kept by the emperor. Rumors have spread everywhere, and the censors of Shaanxi Province impeached the generals to quell the rebellion.

Those who were in war and refused to move forward, some of the Censorate impeached Ma Cheng and left the army and killed the generals without permission. There were rumors that the government army was infected with the plague, and 20,000 soldiers were dead, and all kinds of rumors flew everywhere.

.

The young emperor could not hold back after all, and a secret decree was issued to order Ma Cheng to be brave and diligent and to quell the rebellion as soon as possible.

Ma Cheng walked out of the tent and took a deep breath, looked at the bloody sun in the sky, and ordered Shenjiying to rest for two days, to maintain his energy and fight the rebels to fight the decisive battle with the rebels.

It was night, and the torches outside the city reflected half of the sky red.

The next morning, Ma Cheng stood on the broken wall and looked at the hustle and bustle of refugees outside the city, and got goose bumps. Even the most realistic literary works could not describe the tragic situation in front of him. Everyone was thin in the troubled times.

He was skinny and torn clothes, noisy and noisy as boiling water in a pot. There was a strong man in white dress wearing a turban and resisting big swords, scolding the refugees who were rushing around.

Fu Zonglong followed suit and wore an ordinary mandarin duck battle jacket, but his beautiful beard three inches under his jaw looked inconsistent.

Fu Zonglong looked at the large refugees outside the city and said in a deep voice: "Teaching chaos."

Ma Cheng knew that the White Lotus Sect was wearing a turban to resist the big sword. The people's rebellion and rebellion were the soil where the White Lotus Sect took root and sprouted. The court was like a great enemy when it was involved in the White Lotus Sect. The White Lotus Sect, Maitreya Sect, and the Incense Sect have always been

It was a stubborn disease of the Ming Dynasty. Now, it is a very dangerous signal to be launched in Shaanxi while taking advantage of the chaos. The chaos in the country is much more terrifying than a mutiny. A sentence appeared in Ma Cheng's mind: If a country is in chaos, there will be evil.

Fu Zonglong, a civilian official, had his face changed, and he said cautiously: "This battle must not be defeated. If this battle is defeated, the decay of the mountains and Shaanxi will be unsustainable."

Ma Cheng also became cautious and knew that what he said was very true. If it was involved in chaos, if it could not be wiped out immediately, the cult forces would inevitably grow rapidly like snowballs, causing a big disaster. There were no big riots in the crowd.

The formation was barely gathered into three groups under the suppression of the White Lotus Cult. By noon, the rebel brigade finally arrived. From a distance, tens of thousands of people were mixed with infantry and cavalry, and their clothes were all kinds of. Some were wearing Ming military uniforms, and some were tied.

With leggings and hats, tens of thousands of rebels were overwhelmed by the sky, and soon filled the wilderness to the west.

The group of the Atomics had long been used to the spectacular situation of the army blocking the sky and avoiding the sun. The group of the generals of Guizhou, however, had a numb scalp and cold limbs. The timids could no longer hold the knife.

Fu Zonglong was irritated and said: "I heard that God has given me a clear and kind heart. If my ministers and Ji are guilty, Hu will not harm me. Hu will cause a drought state and will harm millions of people."

This poem is very suitable for the sake of the situation, but it is a bit pedantic. Ma Cheng had no choice but to say helplessly: "Brother is the heart of a Bodhisattva."

Fu Zonglong felt sour after a while, and he felt it was too sour, and said a little embarrassedly: "That's the case, it's time to start."

Ma Cheng said very easily: "Don't worry, hold on first."

Fu Zonglong wanted to speak but Ma Cheng turned his eyes away. He hurriedly shut up. The army was in a hurry and was a little panicked. Only then did he realize that it was unwise to discuss the strategy of suppressing thieves on the city. Seeing that he bowed with shame, Ma Cheng smiled, as

As a rookie on the battlefield for the first time, this Lord Fu has to learn a lot. For example, as a general, he does not show his emotions and anger, and maintains absolute majesty and prestige in front of his subordinates, it is the only way to win over the morale of the army.

After almost watching it, I returned to the camp and the military controversy, and for a moment, the central army tent was silent.

Ding Wenchao stood around Macheng and smiled and said, "Why are you so cowardly? I'm afraid that you're not being able to take away the momentum of those thieves outside the city."

Even Li Kaiyuan's face was frozen. He couldn't get out of the stage. He was finally a pampered little marquis, and he had never seen such a large army fight.

Ma Cheng scolded, "Wenchao, you have passed a little."

Ding Wenchao smiled and sued him, but he stopped talking, but his chin was about to be raised to the sky, so he looked down on these first brothers on the battlefield. Ma Cheng looked around and the general of the Beijing camp headed by Li Kaiyuan, and the governor of Denglai Yuan.

The Dengzhou garrison and patrol sent by Li could only spread their hands. The generals that emerged during the Shenzong Dynasty shone brightly, and the three famous generals during the three great battles were like clouds. Forty-eight years have passed, and the generals have withered, and the most serious thing is that they are not connected.

Famous generals and strong army really need to be fought. The so-called three major conquests of Wanli exhausted the national strength of the Ming Dynasty, which is ridiculous. Just Li Chengliang, a famous general who was fought during the dynasty, could suppress Liaodong for decades, and regard the Jurchen tribes as if they were making noodles.

Generally, it is square and round, and it can be said to be as good as you want. Any famous general from the Wanli Dynasty who is still alive can maintain a strong military deterrence to the various Jurchen tribes.

Even if only one Xiong Tingbi was left, he was pulled back by the Donglin Party and forced torn down.

While pondering, the garrison of Dengzhou first made a suggestion: "It is better to retreat to the inner city than to have a great thief."

Before he finished speaking, Fu Zonglong's expression changed: "No, the rebel army has been fighting for a bloody and courageous spirit. We should defend the city walls to defeat their sharpness."

Li Kaiyuan also echoed: "What Mr. Fu said is very much, this city wall must not be given up."

The Dengzhou garrison was refuted by Shangguan, and his face turned red in embarrassment and did not dare to say more.

As the deputy envoy of recruiting the counter-attack, Fu Zonglong said in a deep voice: "You must not give up the city wall. Fu is willing to carry the coffin and lead thousands of Tongling children to the front line!"
