Chapter 778： Lay down

Regardless of the reasons for the uprisings of the Tongmin and Yaomin, whether they were bewitched or not, by this time, it is no longer important. From the beginning of the uprising army's break-through of Luorong county town and the killing of the officials in the city, the imperial court and the uprising army could only endlessly, unless one side fell.

In fact, the leader of the Tongmin Huang Wenlong did not want to kill officials in Luorong County at first. He originally wanted to use the captured officials to negotiate with the Ming court. After all, he also knows that no matter how fierce Tong Min is, he can't stand the money of the Ming court. However, where did the leader of the Yaomin who had hatred and hatred against the Ming court, Zheng Yunhu, make him wish? After breaking Luorong County, Zheng Yunhu arrested all the officials in the city, but instead of doing it himself, he bewitched those children. Under the confusion of Zheng Yunhu, Tong Min remembered the history of being bullied by Ming Ting, and then a small universe broke out, cutting off all the officials. At this point, the rebel army has no chance of being recruited ...

Inside the Yamen of Luorong County, Huang Wenlong, the leader of Tongmin, sat on the lobby of the Yamen with a frown on his face, thinking about the information he had just received. In the intelligence, the 130,000 army was gathered by the Ming Dynasty, and was coming from Wuzhou, which made Huang Wenlong a little panicked ...

"Why do you have a sad face when you are a big man?" Zheng Yunhu sat next to him and saw Huang Wenlong looking sad.

"Brother Zheng, the imperial court sent 130,000 troops! Although our volunteers have nearly 20,000 troops, but they can really fight, there are less than 10,000. The elite are actually elite, but there are actually only 3 or 4 thousand people! Facing so many enemy troops, can I not panic? "

"Hehe ..." Zheng Yunhu took a sip of wine and said slowly:

"Don't worry about being the master, don't look at the 130,000 troops sent by the court, but I guess it's good to have 60,000 soldiers!"

"60,000? Why do you see it?" Huang Wenlong was a hero among the children, and he didn't know much about politics and military affairs. The reason why he was promoted to leader was because Zheng Yunhu was a Yao national, but the main force of the uprising was Tong Min, so Huang Wenlong, who had a high reputation, was elected as the chief. Therefore, Huang Wenlong was not clear about the virtue of the Ming Dynasty guards.

"I heard in the next section that although there were 5,600 people in the Ming Dynasty's sanitation center. But that was what happened when the Ming Dynasty was founded. After so many years, the Ming court has long been enlisted. So, there are nominally five thousand A guard of six hundred people actually has more than two thousand people ... "

"Why is this?" Huang Wenlong was puzzled.

"Because those generals want to eat empty-handed!"

Huang Wenlong still did not understand, Zheng Yunhu had to explain:

"Eating empty rates means that there are only more than two thousand people in Weisuo, but when they receive food from the court, they still receive a share of 5,600. But there are actually only more than two thousand in the Weisuo. Part of it was divided by the officials ... "

"It turned out that ... this Ming court was indeed ... Then, Brother Zheng, the actual 130,000 troops from the court this time were actually only tens of thousands?" Huang Wenlong asked eagerly.

Zheng Yunhu shook his head and said:

"No, the head of the family, there must be 130,000 soldiers and horses from the court. Because before the expedition, the commanders of the guards will definitely catch some farmers to make up the number and make up 130,000. On the surface, there are 130,000. In fact, only 50 to 60 thousand people can fight. "

"Oh, that's the case ... So, Brother Zheng, why did Hou Dagou, who had tens of thousands of soldiers, still lose to the court? At that time, the court had only 160,000 people. According to you, only seven or eight thousand Warrior, Hou Daishuai should lose! "

Zheng Yunhu shook his head and said:

"The reason why Hou Shuai lost that time was not because of the lack of troops, but because the troops were dispersed ..."

"What solution?"

"When Hou Shuai started, he did have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, even cavalry and sailors. However, Hou Shuai's soldiers and horses occupied too much territory. At that time, Hou Shuai's army not only captured Guangxi, It also captured most of Guangdong. In addition, Hou Shuai ’s army also attacked southern Hunan, and the navy also attacked the coast of Fujian and Zhejiang ... but only in this way, tens of thousands of troops were divided into parts, and the troops were dispersed. The army of the imperial court, with a clear purpose, pointed directly at the Hou Shuai headquarters. Finally, Hou Shuai only brought more than 10,000 people to guard the Dateng Gorge. Eventually, he was surrounded by the Ming Army. He hid up the mountain and was also set on fire by the Ming Army. "" Zheng Yunhu's voice was low, and his emotions did not seem to be high.

Huang Wenlong nodded, but then asked suspiciously:

"No, I heard that Mr. Shu has said about the Three Kingdoms. The Huangjin Uprising, wasn't it where you hit it, did you get the soldiers there? Although Hou Dashuai started with only tens of thousands of people, but he won so many sites, and he should also add a lot of troops. Alright? "

Zheng Yunhu smiled bitterly:

"The big master, that is the Han people's own uprising! The Huangjinjun was originally a Han Chinese, and there was someone who responded naturally. However, our army was the army of the Yao people. In addition to the tens of thousands of people who started the uprising, the number of people increased later and Not much. Because, Hanmin does not correspond to our army ... "

Huang Wenhu suddenly realized ...

Also, Hou Dagou is the leader of the Yaomin Volunteer Army. Although Tong Min and Miao Min also responded to his uprising at that time (otherwise there were not tens of thousands of horses), but Han Min responded very little. After all, the cause of the incident was the oppression of the Ming Dynasty by the Ming Dynasty, which had nothing to do with the Han people. Therefore, after the Yaomin volunteers of Hou Dagoo hit Guangdong and southern Hunan, most of the Han people were neutral except for some Shaomin and a few local Han people. Therefore, the Uprising not only did not grow like a snowball, but because the chassis was too large, they had to separate their troops to guard. Then, the Ming army was given various opportunities to break through.

"Brother means, let our army concentrate in Luorong county and Ming army battle?" Huang Wenlong asked.

Zheng Yunhu nodded and said:

"Yes, since my army has less troops, we can't divide troops casually. It is not possible to retreat up the mountain, because the Ming army will burn the mountain. So, I mean, according to the Luorong county, and the Ming army will fight against each other. Our army although There are few people, but there are also tens of thousands of wolf soldiers. Moreover, there is a solid wall to rely on. Unbelief can't stop the Ming army. When the Ming army can't be attacked for a long time and is tired, it is when our army counterattacks!

"Wonderful! It's just ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Do we have so much grain and grass to stick to?" Huang Wenlong knew, without enough grain and grass, he couldn't last long.

"This is easy. Before the Ming army arrived, we sent the army to collect food everywhere! In addition, the Han people in Luorong city were expelled from the city, so that they would not waste much food!"

"Okay, just follow Brother Zheng's wishes!"

Soon, Tong Yao Uprising Army drove out all Han people in Luorong County. At the same time, several soldiers and horses were dispatched to attack the countryside and collect food. Focus on going to those Han landlords' homes to "collect food" to meet the needs of the long-standing city.

In fact, the so-called "grain requisition" is just grabbing grain. Moreover, they will take away all the people's food and leave nothing at all.

Therefore, in every war, the people will starve to death a lot. Because, as long as a large army passes by, they will steal their food. No matter which group of people is there, grab the food when you come. It's so repeated that it's strange not to starve people to death ...

When the soldiers of the Ming army approached the town of Luorong County, the Tongyao Allies had basically grabbed enough food and prepared for long-term adherence ... 8)
