Chapter 279 Time can be short or long like a spring
Just when Ye Han was riding in a squeaking carriage, holding a charcoal stove and wearing a mink, eating hot pot and burning up, and deducing the settings of the world while getting sick and practicing magnetic field, the world itself was also undergoing earth-shaking changes.
!
The leading role is naturally the uprising of the Qinglian Sect, which is raging and in full swing!
In the last round, only a hundred cities rebelled, and everyone responded.
This round of rioters took hundreds of cities as their base and began to expand in all directions.
Some cities joined forces, integrated their troops, ordnance, and troops, and swarmed into famous cities with large populations, wide walls, and high walls that they did not dare to provoke in the first wave of uprisings, such as Jinling where Su Xingmou was. As for Jinling, where Su Xingmou was located.
The Heyang Qinglian Army who is one grade higher is one of the targets to be integrated.
Quite a few of them were captured by powerful foreigners in an instant, shocking the world!
There are also cases where the rioters do not gather together, but just go back and forth in nearby areas to cause friction.
One city was broken today, another city tomorrow, burning, killing, looting, raising military supplies, and coercing the refugees, snowballing like a snowball. From time to time, they would return with carbine, crushing the hastily assembled official forces, and then flourish.
go.
Although they have repeatedly captured small towns, it is still more honorable to tell them.
According to calculations, one round in the game lasts roughly three months, which happens to be a quarterly rotation.
The last round of uprisings was around February and March, when winter had just passed and spring was blooming.
The Qinglian Sect obviously has some considerations.
Just like going out to work, the winter is too cold and the weather is harsh, and you have to celebrate the New Year, so it is inconvenient to work. When spring comes, the flowers bloom, everything revives, and nature comes into its own again... Well, in short, if you start working in spring, you can work for a whole year
.
Moreover, the spring planting was delayed in the place where the uprising occurred. In order to fill their stomachs, the people had no other choice but to follow the rebellion.
When the rebellion spreads to other places, it happens to be the lean season again, and the harvests in the fields are robbed to be used as military rations, and the poor people who are hungry are coerced to rob other places. It is like setting fire with fuel and starting a prairie fire, which is out of control!
And this time around, it’s May and June, the so-called lean days among the people.
In the past three months, the only bad news for the Qinglian Sect was that a mysterious master assassinated several senior members of the sect one after another, including the commander-in-chief of Suzaku, who was seriously injured and temporarily unable to take charge.
The so-called mysterious master is naturally Gan Dadi.
In fact, before time flies, Ye Han's notoriety was only more than 15,000, and that was the price for rescuing Gan Dadi. The remaining 3,000 or so were newly acquired by Gan Dadi...
For three full months, Dahuang Chao certainly didn't react at all.
A handful of states and counties were able to withstand the first wave of the uprising thanks to the help of county magistrates, wealthy families, and of course players.
But they are only a minority and are almost meaningless in the face of the general trend.
The dam bursts and the floods rush down in a mighty and mighty way. What's the use of just a few stubborn stones that haven't been washed away? How many people can be stopped? How many lives can be saved?
The main reason is that the players clearly see that this wave is likely to be cannon fodder. It is unwise to rush in and join the team now. Most of them are planning up and down, how to take advantage of the situation to encircle the territory and build a piece of their own base.
Natural and man-made disasters, political corruption, and sharp conflicts in the prefectures and counties were helpless in the face of the rebels, and they fell to their knees like dominoes.
At that time, beacon fires were set off in more than half of the eighty-eight counties of Da Huang Dynasty in Kyushu. Documents of urgent military situation gathered from all directions, and it was even difficult to tell which ones were real and which ones were riots...
It took a full month for the court to finally summarize and sort out the news and start to make the normal response - visit the altar to pay homage to the general and assemble an army.
It's easy to say it, just eight words, but to do it... The so-called "going to the altar to worship a general" is nothing more than issuing a letter of appointment and conferring an official title.
But this step alone took another month!
The Ministry of War has recommendations from the Ministry of War, and the prime ministers and ministers also have their own considerations. The harem faction, the eunuch forces, the honorary group... all are jumping up and down, hoping that generals who have good relations with their own side will be able to lead the army.
Before the emperor could say anything, the whole court was noisy like a vegetable market.
When the emperor spoke, the Ministry of War said that the emperor's business was not good, the ministers said that His Majesty was not thoughtful, the harem blew pillows like crazy, and the eunuchs from time to time gave eye drops to the people they didn't like...
So before the results came out, two famous ministers and generals fell first and were sent to the prison with pigtails in their hands. Several generals were also implicated. They had no time to protect themselves and no longer had the energy to command the army.
The agitators plan reciprocal retaliation against the enemy's political forces, while the calm people say that now is not the time for internal strife, but they cannot stop the agitators' actions.
Because when times are tough, people's normal thinking is that doing something is better than doing nothing, and how bad can it be? Jianguo came to power, followed Brexit, and the United States' perverse actions. Isn't this the case?
?
The game is no exception.
The one side thought that the other side had taken action against them, so they took revenge in anger; the other side thought that what they had done was perfect and impossible to be discovered, and that the so-called "retaliation" was completely unreasonable, so they justly retaliated.
The emperor happened to be a negligent person, unable to restrain himself or even bothering to deal with disputes in the court.
So after a month of entanglement and a full-on martial arts show, the matter was finally settled.
It was decided to form four armies, front, rear, left and right, to deal with the four banners of the Qinglian Army's southeast, northwest and northwest respectively.
Each army has one commander-in-chief and two partial generals. Among them, only one is a serious soldier, and he is also a partial general.
There is a leader of the party, a party supervisor, a dandy noble, and the last one is parachuted in by the Minister of War, who has no experience in commanding large-scale battles, no, even small-scale fights...
Just like that, the third month passed.
Then, when preparing for military pay, the Ministry of Household Affairs said that the imperial court could not make ends meet, and the Qinglian Uprising had delayed the farming season, seriously affecting this year's tax revenue, and it could not be paid. It also petitioned the imperial court to apply for a reduction in this year's tax;
To prepare ordnance, the Ministry of Industry said that the craftsmen could not get wages and had no food to eat. Where would they find the strength to build equipment? Moreover, the equipment was in disrepair and needed to be replaced. The court asked the court to make up the money owed first and wait until they fed the craftsmen.
, let’s talk about updating the equipment.
These two are pretty good. Even if you have no money or food, you can make do if you owe money, and you can eat enough if you grab food; if you have no weapons, wooden knives and guns can still hurt people. If you don’t have armor, paper helmets are not only afraid of water, but also
It's not useless at all, it just depends on how shameless the officer is.
The most troublesome thing is... there is no one!
The border army has to deal with the barbarian invasion. It has many soldiers and generals, and its strength is good. Unfortunately, it is far away on the border and cannot be transferred back within a few months or even half a year.
As for the garrisons in various prefectures and counties, including the imperial guards guarding the capital, they are rotten to the core.
The soldiers at the lower level are busy with their side jobs, and those with no brains go home to farm;
The middle-level officers are smart enough to use their subordinates to smuggle and do business, but the stupid officers simply dismiss their subordinates to eat and drink soldiers' blood;
As for the upper-level officers... they don't have to do anything, because whether they are eating short hours, drinking soldiers' blood, or smuggling and doing business, they have to count their share, and if they don't do anything, they will be full!
If the army hadn't been so devastated, how could it have been completely defeated in front of the Qinglian Army?
With such virtue, how is it possible to quickly assemble and form one, no, four regular troops that can be used to suppress the Qinglian Army in a short period of time?
Let alone three months, six months or even a year may not be enough, and it might be faster without dispatching border troops to Beijing.
Of course, objective difficulties exist, but when they are emphasized to such an extent, it is obvious that everything is a matter of coping, delaying, and an open protest by the court ministers against the forces of relatives and eunuchs who forcibly interfere in the government affairs and confer official positions privately.
Faced with this competitive situation, players who have a lot of information but no authority over the system are helpless.
Those who support today may fall tomorrow. It was obviously a cold day today, so cold that it almost froze, but suddenly the situation suddenly turned upside down...
The fate of the characters in the plot is ups and downs, and the plot has various dramatic reversals, which makes all the players who are planning to choose someone to depend on in the early stage of the game go crazy.
So much so that some irritable players simply influenced the NPCs and encouraged them to persuade the court to let the border troops enter Beijing.
What will happen if the border troops enter Beijing?
Dong Zhuo is the best example. Although An Lushan was a rebel, the essence was similar.
It was obviously a broken pot, and I planned to use external force to accelerate everything and start over again.
Of course, there are only a small number of players who are obsessed with getting the upper hand in the court.
Most teams just send their best at observing words and gossiping to Beijing to see if they can take advantage of the situation and strive for some righteousness. The main force is to invest in the world and focus on improving their own strength.
After all, Dong Zhuo only made public for a while, like Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Sun Quan... are the kings, and none of these people rose up through the court.
To make iron, you need to be strong yourself. You can rely on the power of the court, but you cannot rely on it.
But everything in the court has nothing to do with my friends...
Gao Yiben definitely wanted to stir things up, but unfortunately there were only four people on his side. Except for himself, who had to sit in the middle, no one was good at dealing with people. They were either slow as hell, or very disciplined, or
It's so annoying...
So let alone exerting force in the court, even the senior officials of the Qinglian Army are unable to gain favor. They can only walk around.
As for Su Xingmou, Lin Hua is good at it. She did make some plans to help Su Xingmou prosper in Jinling City, but... Jinling has been surrounded from all sides, and all homing pigeons will be shot to death.
, it is impossible for people to leave, let alone lobbying in the court.
If there are any big changes in the past three months, it is that players generally activate the task chain or even complete the task, and gradually master the skills of military advisors and generals.
Taking the friends as an example, Su Xingmou and Gao Yiben have been mastered. Although others have not mastered it, the task chain has been activated and it is this round.
Gao Yiben's military division skill is called "The whole army begs". Well, it means almost the same thing. It means that the troops become refugees, the marching speed is greatly accelerated, and the consumption is greatly reduced, but the morale will also be greatly reduced...
As for Su Xingmou, she followed Lin Hua's plan and showed up a few times at the Jiangnan Medical Center, pretending to save lives and heal the wounded and hang herself to ask questions. So, despite being a demon sect witch, Jinling City's reputation reached its peak in just a few days, and the world was full of people.
He is far ahead on the reputation list, just the opposite of Ye Han.
As for her strategist skill, it is called "Cihang Purdue". When the pose is illuminated, it can restore morale and status, dispel negative effects, and speed up the healing of injuries...and it has no negative effects at all. The effect is similar to the prayer in Invincible Heroes.
