Chapter 370 Liu Liujun’s Coming

The Yangjia Temple outside Wuqiao County, named Yangjia Temple, is a small village. This is the temporary residence of Liu Liujun. Liu Liu attacked the city, but never lived in the city. All the grain and grass were moved out of the city without hesitation. He was stationed in the nearby village. This is a problem that he developed as a horse thief. Once the wind blows, he can get out quickly.

Liu Liu’s army has always picked small and medium-sized counties and towns with few soldiers and horses stationed in the city, and the city is not difficult to attack. Such counties and towns can easily obtain the bulk supplies they need without causing major casualties.

Liu Liu has been a gangster for many years and is not a layman for controlling people. His army has its own effectiveness, there are poor and forced to participate, and there are teams that have been threatened and have just been pulled up. Morale is the most important. Before training these soldiers to be as fierce and fearless as the soldiers of Bazhou Xiangmao , Must suffer less from failure.

Now I choose to attack Texas because his men already have a certain amount of combat power. There are very few people who ca n’t ride horses in the south and north, and this area is an area where the court horse has been implemented for more than 100 years. The horsemanship of the people is quite good. Coupled with the fact that Shangwu, Hebei Province has been from ancient times, these basic conditions have been specified, and it has been eliminated from the ranks of officers and soldiers.

Those who can survive today, no matter equestrian, martial arts, or combat experience, are already the best choice, at least more than the ranks of those who have no fighting spirit. At the same time, with the increase in the number of people, and the purpose of the court’s purposely fortified fields, the looted grains of small counties and towns can no longer meet the needs of his troops, and they urgently need to have their own territory.

Zhao Sui proposed to split the troops down the road two ways, because Xu Tai and Jiang Bin were chasing after each other in Hebei. They were crowded and had difficulties in scheduling and supplying. The division of troops is easy to supply, and the second is to expand new sites.

It was at this time that the whole Shandong was stretched across, so that the Shandong commander made Si Guijin afraid of coming out of Yanghu in Jinan City, and sent someone to send him a secret, proposing that he should cooperate inside and outside, and take the place of Shandong as a base. The northern part of the capital, the southern part of the central plains, cut off the lifeline of the canal, according to the plan of Jiangshan Sheji.

Zhao Sui was shocked at the sight of the case. This strategy was brilliant and extremely bold. Zhao Sui proposed to divide the troops, originally for the purpose of supply, and because Liu Liu used his troops to rape, he did not practice virtue. Zhao Sui gradually became distracted and wanted to build a world of his own.

Seeing this secret letter now, Zhao Sui was very excited, so he supplemented the strategy and suggested that Liu Liu and Liu Qi take the main force to Shandong. Take the Dezhou and control the canal, cooperate with Yang Hu to capture Jinan, take advantage of the court to focus on Shandong, and lead his troops to Shanxi. Once they gain momentum, things are echoed, Henan is at your fingertips, and when they are between North and South, they are completely cut off by them.

Liu Liu took this seriously, and because of this, he made up his mind to seek Bazhou, which was the first military fortress they attacked. Although he was increasingly contemptuous of the military’s fighting power during this period, he was still a little nervous.

He was wearing a shirtless white cloth short gown, green silk kung fu trousers, wearing leggings, sitting under a jujube tree, and in front of a short table with a few large tea bowls on the table. Things about Bazhou City. Qi Yanming rode a yellow horse from the village entrance. He jumped off the horse outside the fence and threw the reins to one of his men. Come in with open arms.

Liu Liu said with a smile: “Lao Qi, how is it, how many reinforcements came from the court?”

Qi Yanming sat down on the stone pier next to him, picked up a large bowl of tea and slammed it away. He grabbed Pu Fan from Liu Liu’s hand and slammed the fan: Gong Yangling, with only 3,000 cavalry, but no one else. “

Liu Qi laughed and said: “Only three thousand people? The court sent a grandfather to fight against it, with his teeth in his mouth, guarding Texas with his hands empty.”

Qi Yanming is a native of reading books and is more cautious in his own life. Since he is not as careless as he is, he shook his head and said: “I heard that Bo Yan Meng could strike again. This tiger cannot be underestimated. Manpower, the four Chinese and foreign troops of the Beijing Army have set aside all the way for Xu Tai and Jiang Bin to chase the lunatics. Are they still dare to leave? Are you afraid that we, like Lao Zhao, will attack the Beijing division?

Besides, defending and attacking is difficult. Dezhou City now has 60,000 soldiers and horses. We only have 30,000. Under normal circumstances, we have to double them. Only then can the siege have a way to win. The current strength should be more than enough. Are you worried about sending Yang Ling, a victorious general? “

Liu Liu frowned: “In this way, playing Texas is not like we usually attack the castle town of the county. It is really going to be down. The deaths and injuries are very heavy. I am afraid that I can’t keep it!”

Qi Yanming gave a “hmm” sound. At this time, someone served him a plate of pancakes, a handful of green onions, a bowl of miso and half of braised dog legs. Qi Yanming rolled the pancakes of green onions while eating: “In any case, this is an important step that concerns whether we continue to be gangsters or have the opportunity to ask Jiangshan. We must try it out. Wealth and wealth seek for it. If we want to capture Jiangshan, there will be more storms and waves, how can we retreat with difficulty?”

Liu Liunong raised his eyebrows and said, “Well, what Lao Qi said is reasonable, just do it. You eat first, and let’s go for dinner. Let’s go to Dezhou City to try his skill at Xiao Yang. It ’s a pity that Bao Na fainted, if he could capture him alive, Laozi would accept him. In the future, Laozi would become an emperor and give him a father-in-law.

Shuiximen is the quayside area, which is usually the most prosperous, and there are endless stream of official ships and civilian ships. Sometimes loading and unloading at night is also brightly lit like daylight, but now it is much deserted. The ships from Beijing to the south have disappeared, few ships going north, and most of them are naval ships, protected by sailors, or the warships are temporarily made into cargo ships. Despite this, the ship could only stop here. Going northward not only caused the bandits to rampage, but also the piles of locks in the canal made it difficult to pass through.

There are now three wars that are anchored at the shore. The ship is the Jiangnan Marine Division and the muzzle of the black hole is on the side of the ship. This is a new type of warship built by Yang Ling during the Jiangnan banditry, and the artillery is also a new type of artillery that is very fast.

Seeing this, Yang Ling was very cordial: I do n’t know if the general who led the team had any familiarity with him. It seems that this warship is carrying ordnance and equipment. Several of the naval generals he brought out in Jiangnan are now on his own. He is a key naval officer in Jiangnan and Southeast, and he should not be responsible for such a simple task.

Yang Ling thought about it and summoned a personal soldier to order: “Go to the pier to see which general of the Jiangnan Marine Division leads the team. After the cargo is unloaded, don’t be busy and ask their general to meet me.”

After the command was over, Yang Ling and Luo commanded to walk along the city wall to the north gate. Wu Hanchao and Song Xiaoai took Yang Ling’s personal army to escort.

Luo Guangquan’s injury was not very serious. However, in full view, the law enforcement team did not falsify, just a stick down, the wound is not the bones. That’s skillful, like Luo Guangquan’s twenty military sticks, applying the above good golden sore medicine is not a hindrance, but after all, the wound is new, so it is supported by two confidant guards.

Slowly walking between the blue brick wall and arrow stacks, the soldiers patrolling the city all stopped and flashed aside, watching Luo’s **** in awe. Then he watched the Wei Guogong walk away in awe, and then he carried his spear, arrow and shield to speed up his pace and continue to patrol the city.

Now, no one has listened to the orders of the superiors, and they have to deal with the messengers. The sun is fierce. They dare not wear the armor neatly and pick up a full set of equipment to patrol the city carefully. No matter how deep the night was, no one dared to rush out and wander around. Then find a place to sleep. The responsibility for alert is given only to the soldiers with fixed posts.

A forest appeared outside the city, in order to prevent the anti-thief from using the forest cover to quietly approach the city. On the side of the city wall, all the trees within a hundred feet were cut down, and the trees in the distance could not be cut down, becoming sparse. In the distance, the canal twists and turns along the embankment and extends to the distance.

There are some houses on the inner side of the river embankment, which have now become dilapidated dilapidated walls, some have fallen, and some have collapsed. I do n’t know whether it was caused by wind and rain, or a horse stolen or a white masterpiece.

Below that ruined wall is an empty field developed by the people, surrounded by trees and sheltered from the wind. The dam can be used to draw water with a windmill. There should have been a good field, and now it should be covered with crops, but now there is only a barren and wild grass. .

Yang Ling sighed deeply, pointing to Luo that the barren land commanded Luo: “People follow the thieves, mostly from hunger and cold; soldiers follow the thieves, mostly from lack of food. Now people are chaotic because of famine and cold, but they are fighting back Coming here to further destroy farming will only make the world more chaotic, and more people will have no way to live.

Banditry is just a manifestation of the use of troops, and the fundamental method is to make the people alive. In fact, there is no panacea. It is nothing more than reducing harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, so that the people can afford less burdens, and do more practical things for the officials, so that people can eat and wear warm.

However, these things only depend on a few officials. Under his rule, it is not difficult to realize. Looking at the entire Jiangshan, first of all, we must ensure the clarity of the officials and the justice of the law, rather than relying solely on the self-discipline of officials. This is the most difficult. To rectify government officials is by no means a one-time job. It is easy to say, but it is hard to do. “

Commander Luo said: “Don’t worry about the grandfather, the emperor’s holy Ming today, there are loyal officials like the grandfather of the country, the court, the Hanlin Academy, and the spokesmen of Kedao have been rectified. The officials will be able to do it clearly. Ground “.

Yang Ling smiled bitterly and commanded Luo: “Our army lacks training, individual soldiers have poor combat strength, and field combat ability is particularly poor. When fighting, they often use weapons to make up for the gap between people, so they are good at guarding and not good at attacking. But the most terrible thing is morale. Low morale and low morale, even if the weapon is advanced, once the battle is fought, it will be defeated. “

Commander Luo thought deeply and nodded, “Yeah, the situation in Texas is more complicated, especially because the military sources are different, and they compare with each other. It is a headache to dispatch. Sangyuankou is the main road of communication between Texas and Cangzhou. Texas is a horn, and mutual help is an extremely important place. Is it appropriate for the Duke to send Baoding and Tianjin Reinforcement to stand alone? Is it appropriate to be offended?

Yang Ling laughed and said: “You can’t worry, do you think you can keep them under your eyelids?” Lu Jianjun kept one place each, did not compare each other, each held its own responsibility, but on the contrary, it was easier to play their role.

Today, I use military law to establish my prestige, so that the soldiers fear the law and know the law. How to maintain it for a long time is your ability to lead the army. The military discipline is strict, the rewards and penalties are clear, and you can do well regardless of human feelings. “

Commander Luo said carefully: “Guogong said yes!”

Yang Ling also said: “The morale of the military heart should be mobilized. It is easy to say, not difficult. That’s a question of why you are fighting. Why do you say these soldiers are fighting? Serving the court or protecting the people? I won’t be war-fighting anymore. I issued a decree to kill the ringing horse, and all the money I get will be owned by the individual. The effect will not be immediately visible until after a few battles. Some people taste the sweetness, and the whole army will be like a greedy tiger. “

Yang Ling smiled and said, “I am a soldier, and I have always been a civilian, but I haven’t gotten to the front but sat down and commanded. I was constrained by the general. And behind him, there was a supervising army, and I was constrained by civilians. Without the interference of the supervisor, it is up to you to pay the most power, and the concentration of power orders can make you act cheap. “

Yang Ling gave him a meaningful look and said, “The people in the world ridiculed me and said that Yang Ling is a killer and Yang beheaded. But I have never used it to kill Liwei. It was useless when I took the camp of the gods. It was useless when Bai Shandeng resisted the tsars, Jiangnan Pingyao and southeast attacked the Folang robots, and they were never used when the Sichuan squads were all ruthless.

Both General Shen Bao of the Shenji Camp and Ruan Dawen, the governor of Fujian, both have the way to take death. They do not follow military laws, and they should be killed only by national laws. Only today, for serious military discipline, killed more than 20 pawns. It is really to establish military authority and serious military law. No, I’m afraid you can’t control this miscellaneous army. The national public sings a black face. Commander Luo gave you a military mind, and I ’m all counting on you in the Texas Department of Security. “

Commander Luo said abruptly: “Duke Guo is at ease, and Luo Shiquan’s responsibility lies with him, and he will not lose the heavy trust of the Duke Gong, but he will do his utmost to stay in the city, the people will be in the city, and the people will die in the city.”

“Not enough, people are in the city, people are dead, the city must be there!”

“Yes! People are in the city, people are in the city!”

Looking at Yang Ling walking forward for a while, Luo Shiquan hurriedly signaled the two personal soldiers to help himself to get closer and said, “Guogong, your plan, you will still be a little worried. The son of Qianjin can’t sit down. Guogong Gao Juexian, now in charge of the military and political affairs of a province in Shandong, has an important relationship with the whole body. Do this … “.

“Ah, what else do you say at this time? Despite what you did, you should be surprised.

“What’s more, the thieves will win the battle in the past few months, and the chasing army will not threaten them, and the anti-thieves are proud. The arrogant soldiers will always give their opponents many vulnerabilities!” Yang Ling thumped the city wall gently, his eyes flashing.

The two discussed the issues of city defense as they walked. When they reached the north gate, they saw a group of people gathering under the city and were crying and shouting there. The soldiers on the head of the city shouted and shouted, “Go! Go away! This is an important military place. Feng Luo commanded the envoys, he was not allowed to put one person into the city, and he hurriedly went to escape elsewhere, and then it was noisy here, and Laozi ’s bow and arrow did not have long eyes! “

The people below have men and women, old and young, and carry bags and baskets. At first glance, they are the people who are fleeing from the desert. There was a gray-haired old man in his sixties who cried and begged: “Government Lord, please beg for mercy. The nearby counties let all the bandits take over. The soldiers are everywhere and there is nowhere to go. , Xiao Lao’er kowtowed you, raise your hand, give us a way to live. “

When the old man knelt down, the people suddenly fell on their knees, and the city guard shouted, “Go, don’t pay attention to his mother, I’m not dead yet, I’m so guilty!”

Yang Ling was angry and frowned, “What’s going on? Why don’t you let the refugees into the city?”

Commander Luo hurriedly said: “You can’t let them go! Grandpa Guo, you can’t let them in! Don’t look at these people, old and young, men and women, but it’s not good to say who is a robber, sometimes they are all robbers. , Father and son, mother and daughter, the family is simply a gangster. Other times, it is mixed with water and fish.

These people entered the city, or collected intelligence on the city defense, or attacked the city gates inside and outside, or they set fire everywhere in the city when the robbers attacked. They yelled that the ringing horse had entered the city and spread false news to disturb our military. Most of the counties such as Qihe and Huimin were mixed into the ringing horse robbers before they were easily attacked into the city, plundering adultery and poisoning the whole city. “

Yang Ling could not help but silently. He was just pitying and he blurted out. Commander Luo didn’t remind him, and he immediately reacted.

Before the two militaries, the women’s benevolence was unacceptable. Although these people looked like none of them were ringing horse thieves, ringing horse thieves was originally a peasant team that had just been pulled up to be thieves and dismounted. No disguise at all.

Maybe these people are real refugees, or maybe there are real refugees, but what can they do? Since I am not an omnipotent god, without the omnipotent ability, how to distinguish and distinguish? Life is full of helplessness. In Jimingyi ’s city, did he grind his teeth and stubbornly disregard the blockage of Huangxian Cheng and others, and blow up the innocent people wrapped in tatars to pieces?

In troubled times. Human life is cheaper than grass and mustard, and the most pitiful people will always be the people who are quietly cultivating and devoting themselves.

Yang Ling’s tears were gleaming and his heart was sore, but Kaicheng’s orders could not be said from his mouth. He could only gritt his teeth and harden his heart, watching the people pleading again and again, and finally left in despair. They helped the old and the young, their feet were sluggish, and they walked back step by step. Perhaps they were still hoping that the defenders at the head of the city would suddenly open their doors with kindness.

If the country is prosperous and the people are strong and the people live and work in peace and contentment, why would they be displaced and their families destroyed? Rebellion, even if there are such ambitions, where can there be a mass foundation and response?

Yang Ling vowed secretly in my heart: I must work hard. Quit the turmoil as soon as possible. In my hands. In my lifetime, I tried my best to change the source of this turmoil. Change our national games, change the destiny of the people who suffered from time to time!

From walking out of the poor mountain ditch of Yangjiaping, there seemed to be a force in the nether world, pushing him step by step to the position of 10,000 people under one person today. It took two years to embark on a career, and one year to be close to the center. This speed can be described as the arrogance of heaven.

And he has not lived up to the high hopes of God. He has been working hard since he set his own goals in life. Within his power, he has broken through many resistances and tried to make some reforms. Some reforms have been implemented in some areas for half a year. .

Although Yang Ling’s work is not a radical reform made directly from the system itself, but it is closely related to it. He can only do this. It is impossible to directly perform a major surgery on the political, economic, and cultural systems of this huge empire. The earth-shaking reforms like that could not be done by the emperor under the circumstance of no time and no power.

Of all those who can succeed through reforms, none of them laid a path rigidly according to his ideas, and then asked the people of the world to implement the things he wants to do according to his ideas. Such a person, without power, is a daydreamer. If he has power, he can only harm others.

The reason why the great winner succeeds is because the entire society has accumulated enough needs and conditions to make certain reforms. He first clearly found that such reforms should be made, and he took advantage of the situation.

There is also a situation where such needs and conditions have sprouted, so the person trying to change must focus on cultivating this sprout, creating more conditions for it, and promoting its maturity. When the historical torrents are rough When he blocked, he would only try to unblock, and the water would come.

If weight-lifting is used to achieve the goal of change indifferently, this is the clever political strategy of four to two pounds. Against the sky, the Great Leap Forward is made when social conditions are not available, or when the reform conditions have just revealed a little sign, and the weak can not withstand a little wind and rain, it will only pull the seedlings to help, it will only destroy its own reputation and even be criticized The old dominant forces stifled the little budding.

What Yang Ling is doing now is to take care of cultivating that little bud of reform and create soil for it. When these conditions are ripe, it will promote the evolution of cultural and political conditions, and then reform can come into being.

This is a long process. Maybe he ca n’t see it blossoming in his lifetime, but using his power to cultivate it consciously can make history less detours and rob the centuries of ignorance, Before the fall comes, let it happen.

Now that all this has just begun, the dawn has gradually dawned, and it must not be allowed to be destroyed, and no one can destroy this hope with endless destruction. This turmoil must be quelled as soon as possible!

Thunderous, came low. Yang Ling Huo Ran raised his head and saw the dust at the bend of the flat post road in the distance. There were countless people in the yellow sand looming. A “Liu” character.

Liu Liu is here!
