Chapter 548: Fighting Alone

As soon as Zhu Yousong said this, the civilian, military and military generals present all nodded in approval, they didn't know that beggars and homeless people were an unstable factor in Luoyang City.

It's just that if the eviction is carried out, even if it does not provoke a popular uprising, it will cause most of the beggars and homeless people to freeze and starve to death, and the promulgation of a decree will directly lead to the death of thousands of poor people.

Huang Han said with a smile: "The concerns of the prince are obvious, of course, you can't drive the homeless people and beggars out of the city and ignore them, you can arrange some Zhuangzi outside the city who were ruined by the border crossing to arrange these people."

They can also be placed in temples and Taoist temples, and two bowls of porridge are still indispensable every day on the fifth watch, and the food needed can be pledged by large households. ”

These words were used by Huang Han to test Zhu Yousong, to see if this kid is responsible, whether he will take the lead in taking out food, how much money and food the Fu Wang's family has, and take out food for beggars and homeless people to eat two bowls of porridge a day, so that the obese King Fu will lose weight.

Zhu Yousong heard the intention of distributing grain to large households, but he didn't pick up the stubble, and it was not his turn to be in charge of the Fuwang Mansion, and whether to give food or not depended on his father's attitude.

Huang Han saw that he had suggested that the big family should give out food, and the guests and the Fu King were all pretending to be deaf and dumb, and he was not angry, and he still said calmly:

"The thieves are vicious, and they naturally hate the dignitaries and nobles, and they are often breached, and the people in the city may still have a way to live, but it is a big deal to be coerced by them to become thieves.

Rich and noble families basically do not leave their lives, and female relatives are even worse than death, the family's money and food will be looted, and the mansion will be burned nine times out of ten.

Therefore, Benjue believes that large families must be sincerely united in the face of the bad situation of the border crossing, and must not be reluctant to give up money and food. ”

This is all the truth, all the rich people in the city will be ruined, but there is no critical moment on the verge of life and death, basically not many rich people are willing to do their best to contribute money and food to help the defenders in the same boat.

Seeing that his brother-in-law was embarrassed when he asked everyone to give food, Zheng Xiaowen said: "This official does not have much food in his hands not long after he takes office, and this official is willing to pay 2,000 taels of silver to buy food to relieve the homeless and beggars." ”

Seeing that the prefect opened his mouth, Luoyang Tongzhi and Tongju and other officials opened their mouths to pledge food ranging from 100 to 500 stones, and then some civil and military generals also pledged verbally.

Although King Fu is addicted to wine, he is not a fool, and if he doesn't open his mouth in this case, he will have no face, he still smiled and said: "These years of harvest is less, and there is no surplus grain in this king's mansion!" In this way, this king's food and clothing will be reduced and two thousand stone of grain will be made. ”

After calculating the accounts, Huang Han opened his mouth and turned his fortune into a total of more than 6,000 taels of silver and 5,000 stone of grain to help the homeless and beggars.

The next day, Zheng Xiaowen organized people to check the household registration, and at the same time, with the cooperation of the "Red Flag Army" who entered the city, the homeless people and beggars were arrested and sent out of Luoyang City for resettlement.

Luoyang and Kaifeng and other big cities "Sifang Express" has been moved in a year or two ago, and the flag guards have also taken root, and under the personal arrangement of Huang Sifang, more than a dozen flag guards have successfully mixed into the rogue team in the past two years.

The flag guards who carry out such dangerous tasks are basically not alone, but in the form of a three-person team, which is also to facilitate management and mutual supervision.

It's just that the rogue is too bad, and he is often beaten by the officials and soldiers, and now several flag guards have died in vain by the officers and soldiers, and the surviving flag guards have basically become the old camp horse bandits of the rogues, and some people have mixed up with the intermediate leaders.

When Huang Han was leaving, he told Zheng Xiaowen not to be soft on the Liukou, and he must not take in the leader of the Liukou who surrendered to Cheng, and if he found that the Liukou had committed Luoyang again, he must investigate the suspicious people from house to house, and would rather catch the wrong one than let it go.

The Flag Guard Organization is too good at provoking reverie, and Huang Han has always controlled this power by himself, and he was worried that Zheng Xiaowen would not be able to accept it, so he never revealed it to him.

Several of the family members selected by Zheng Xiaowen from Liaoxi were flag guards planted by Huang Sifang, who not only collected intelligence, but also took on the work of protecting Zheng Xiaowen, and in case of the loss of Luoyang, the flag guards would forcibly coerce Zheng Xiaowen to abandon the city and escape.

The "Red Flag Army" could not be empty in Luoyang, and it had to bite tightly in order to reduce the consumption of carrying grain.

Often, when the rogues had just grabbed food and supplies, they would throw away their baggage and flee in the desert when they encountered an attack by the cavalry of the "Red Banner Army".

Rogue thieves and thieves, when dealing with the official army, throw baggage, lose gold and silver treasures, the pursuing Ming army will immediately be in chaos, and the soldiers will fight for fear of falling behind.

Knowing that abandoning baggage and throwing money is a trick of the rogue, many generals are helpless.

The Ming army generals have been regularized, and when they sent out troops, in order to deal with the number of arrests everywhere, more than half of their subordinates may be homeless, beggars, and even many hooligans and gangsters.

The few real battalion soldiers are also seriously short of food and salary, and they can pick up gold and silver treasures on the ground, what kind of military discipline will these rabble care?

At this moment, the general ordered the Jiading team to intervene to stop it, and if the anxious soldiers were not good, it was possible to fight with the Jiading, and finally simply cut the main general, and it was very possible to rebel and defect to the Liukou.

Luo Rucai, Lao Huihui, Zhang Xianzhong and other thieves could not blindly escape, they always paid attention to the pursuers behind their buttocks, and found that the Ming army would turn back and fight when they were in chaos.

At this time, the roles of the two sides will often be reversed, and it will become a rogue chasing the officials and soldiers, and they will have no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground.

Huang Han was unwilling to cooperate with other Ming troops, and did not coordinate with Xuan Mo, the governor of Henan, who was already in Kaifeng Mansion, and this civil official from Sanpin basically did not meet in order to avoid the embarrassment of meeting the Marquis of Dongping.

The "Red Banner Army" mastered the speed of marching 50 miles a day to kill all the rogues it could find, and this speed was already a divine speed, and no one in the official army could maintain it for a long time.

Zhang Fengyi's experience is that the Ming army from all walks of life cannot be trusted, in case he is pitted by pig-like teammates and has no place to cry out for injustice.

Huang Han chose to fight alone, did not demand to expand the results of the battle to form an encirclement and annihilation of the enemy, nor did he deliberately chase after the thieves of the 36th Battalion, the "Red Banner Army" had a direction, and it was the first goal to penetrate Henan all the way south into Huguang and reach the Yangtze River.

When the rogues were running in chaos, the "Red Banner Army" did not take the opportunity to take a few places to establish base areas, and in vain mobilized troops to come to the interior.

Therefore, it is very important to build a fortress with a natural port on the Yangtze River, so that Huguang, a rice-producing area, has a base area of the "Red Banner Army."
