Chapter 60: Rebellion

According to the news from the imperial court, Yang Sichang died, and Zuo Liangyu made meritorious service for his crimes, but Zuo Liangyu acted extremely slowly. When the rebels arrived in Poyang City, they had just recovered Nanyang, and the poor Nanyang prefect Chu had moved his useless head.

However, the small town of Miyang. It can't stop the attack of the rebels at all. Breaking through Miyang, entering Ruzhou, approaching Runing, the officers and troops gathered in Runing, and then shook a shot, turned around and went south, to Xinyang Prefecture.

Xinyang Prefecture is the key point between the north and the south, and once it passes through Xinyang, it will rush into Huguang.

Therefore, Xinyang Prefecture is very important, but because of this, for Luo Rucai and Zhang Xianzhong, an old acquaintance also came to Xinyang Prefecture.

"Breaking into the sky in Xinyang Prefecture?" Luo Rucai said: "That's good, since I will send someone to make a move and pull the old brother over." Wouldn't there be no need for a sword? ”

"How is that possible?" Zhang Xianzhong said: "He broke through the sky and wanted to surrender a long time ago, why wait until today, in my opinion, he will kill Liu Guoneng, so that those people at both ends of the rat tail can take warning." ”

Luo Rucai said: "Anyway, it's not too late to try first." ”

Zhang Xianzhong did not refuse and said: "Okay." ”

Breaking into the sky is Liu Guoneng, he is also a general of the rebel army, but he has surrendered to the official army, and the collapse of the sky is his bandit name on the rivers and lakes.

Since this matter was proposed by Luo Rucai, when he sent someone, he was also sent by Luo Rucai, and the person sent by Luo Rucai was none other than Mr. Ji.

The reason why Luo Rucai sent Mr. Ji is very simple, Mr. Ji's qualifications are old, and he has seen the collapse of the sky at the beginning.

When Luo Rucai conspired to pull Liu Guoneng over.

Zhang Xuan is busy working here and setting up camp.

After a month of hard trekking, Zhang Xuan's combat skills are not high, but walking can be regarded as practice, and Zhang Xuan brings this baggage. You can walk 60 miles in a day. Of course, this is the ultimate speed, and without Zuo Liangyu chasing behind at the moment, the speed of the two naturally does not need to be so fast.

In this way, Zhang Xuan didn't have to rush so desperately.

No, at this moment, Zhang Xuan led his subordinates to set up camp in Xinyang Prefecture.

Zhang Xuan was pacing in the camp, but saw hundreds of soldiers organized by the team, under the command of hundreds of households, rushing to work.

In the past month, Zhang Xuan has seen the training of stitches. The appearance of the soldiers has changed greatly, and all the soldiers have gained a lot of weight on the basis of Zhang Xuan's daily satiation, unlike the previous ones, which are as thin as a handful of bones.

"What do you think?" Zhang Xuan asked Cao Zongyu.

Cao Zongyu has always been Zhang Xuan's most trusted and most relied on subordinate, and the two of them have a sense of friendship with each other.

Cao Zongyu said: "I look like I have a bit of the temperament of an elite soldier, but I still need to practice my blade." ”

Zhang Xuan frowned and said, "Training the blade? What kind of blade to practice? Spears, muskets? ”

Cao Zongyu frowned and said, "Why do you keep thinking about this? The spear is not bad, but after all, it is not as good as the sword and shield, and in hand-to-hand combat on the battlefield, most of them use the sword and shield, and once the spear is close, it is useless, as for the firecracker, unless it is a three-eyed firecracker. If there is, I would rather let the soldiers carry the tiger squat cannon than use the fire gun. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "We don't have anything now, what are we doing if we don't practice spears?" As for firearms, we don't even have guns now, so you think about artillery, don't you think too far? ”

Cao Zongyu said: "Yes, but there is one thing, you have to hurry." ”

Zhang Xuan said: "What's the matter? ”

"Go to war." Cao Zongyu said: "No matter how well this soldier is trained, if you don't go to the battlefield and walk around, it can't be said that you have completed the training." In the end, they all have to go to the battlefield. Is Xinyang City going to use a big battle this time? ”

As soon as Zhang Xuan thought of going to the battlefield, his brows tightened.

In Zhang Xuan's view, these soldiers are just child laborers, but child laborers who have just completed military training, and it is simply inhumane to let them go to the battlefield without even completing the training, but everyone is used to it. It doesn't seem strange.

Zhang Xuan avoided this topic and said: "There seems to be an elite army of the imperial court in Xinyang City, and it is rumored that this battle is not very easy to fight. ”

In this era, many people have no intention of keeping it secret, so the matter of breaking into the sky has been rumored. Even Zhang Xuan listened to it, of course, this is also related to Zhang Xuan's status gradually rising.

Luo Rucai's department, although it has developed greatly during this period of time, is only more than 10,000 horsemen, and there are more than 10,000 old and weak, and there are hundreds in Zhang Xuan's headquarters, which seem to be all soldiers, in Luo Rucai's system, although they are not generals, but they are not without status.

"Your general?" Zhang Xuan heard a familiar voice coming. It's none other than Luo Yujiao.

As soon as Zhang Xuan heard Luo Yujiao's voice, he reflexively pulled Cao Zongyu to hide in the corner.

Cao Zongyu sighed softly and said, "Yufeng, this girl is good, why have you been hiding from others?" ”

Zhang Xuan said angrily: "Why am I hiding from you don't know?" ”

As Zhang Xuan's hundreds of people were trained, and his combat effectiveness increased little by little, Zhang Xuan wanted to leave the rebel army more and more. Therefore, he knew that the Ming Dynasty was not perfect, and Zhang Xuan did not think about going to the Ming Dynasty.

What he still wants is to go south to the South Seas. However, there is one more item, that is, with these hundreds of brothers under his hands, among the Nanyang Islands, choose one to manage well, and future generations can also become rich businessmen in Nanyang.

When the Qing army went south, most of them immigrated from the Ming Dynasty, which can be regarded as accumulating virtue.

So at this time, don't delay other girls.

Although, there is a little bit of ingratitude, although there is a bit of a scumbag. But that's the only thing he can do.

Luo Yujiao once again backfired.

Zhang Xuan felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, and he had nothing to say: "Who is on duty tonight?" ”

Cao Zongyu said: "It's Xiao Zhou Baihu. ”

"It's him."

Night came quickly.

In the small camp of Zhang Xuan's department, the defense is very tight. Although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs.

The periphery is a row of wooden walls, and there are people patrolling back and forth on the wooden walls, and all the tents are distributed in units, and the distribution of tents is also distributed in hundreds of households, if you look from above, you can see that the neat tents are in the camp, and there is a single tent in the middle, it is not someone else, it is Zhang Xuan's.

Zhou Fuming was guarding the camp gate. Suddenly, someone patted him on the shoulder, and when Zhou Fuming turned around, he saw that it was Zhou Dang. He said, "Father, you are not allowed to go out of the camp at night, so you better go back quickly." ”

"I know measure." Zhou Dang's face was a little gloomy under the illumination of the lantern in the distance, and he said: "I'm here today to do big things, let's talk here." ”

Zhou Fuming was pulled down by Zhou Dang in the corner of the bonfire, it was dark here, and they couldn't see each other's faces clearly, so they could only see an outline in a daze, but only the eyes reflecting the bonfire made people see it really.

"Ming'er." Zhou Dang said: "In the thief camp, it is not a place to stay for a long time. ”

"Father, I know." Zhou Fuming said: "Sooner or later, the thief army will be exterminated by the imperial court, but before, when I told you to leave, why didn't you leave?" ”

Zhou Dang said: "My family business has been lost, and I have left in such a gray way, what will I do in the future?" Therefore, I must make a meritorious achievement before leaving. ”

"Achievement?" Zhou Fuming was shocked, he couldn't see Zhou Dang's face clearly, the only thing he could see was a bonfire jumping on the beads of Zhou Dang's eyes, and said, "Father, you have to communicate with the official army." ”

"Yes." Zhou Dang said: "It's too late, now we can still control two hundred households, and after a long time, I'm afraid we will be caught by Zhang Xuan." ”

Zhou Dang admired Zhang Xuan a little, but also was a little frightened.

In order to cultivate his hardcore descendants, Zhang Xuan explained the art of war in the camp, but he was in a hurry, and the army was almost constantly kicking back and forth, not stationed in one place at all, and there was no time, and Zhang Xuan only taught a few lessons.

The textbook is "Ji Xiao Xinshu" but Zhang Xuan quoted it from the side, and immediately attracted these low-level officers, and it was these officers that the Zhou family relied on to control the two hundred households, and the family members of the Zhou and Cao families were in the army in large numbers. This is the key to their influence.

But Zhang Xuan's lectures are disintegrating this influence.
