Chapter 127: Rapid Change

***

War has always been fast-moving. On Yuchun Mountain, Qin Mu was discussing with Liu Meng and other generals how to deal with Zhang Xianzhong's "ant moving" tactics;

Judging from the information constantly reported by the scouts, Zhang Xianzhong infiltrated a small group of people and horses that made people feel numb, these small groups of people and horses usually only brought a few days of dry food, and after coming over, Zhang Xianzhong didn't seem to mind too much, as long as one-third of them played a role, it would cause immeasurable troubles to Yuanzhou, and even determine the outcome of the battle of Yuanzhou.

Because according to the preliminary analysis of Qin Mu and others, the small group of people sent by Zhang Xianzhong totaled no less than 30,000 people, and now almost all of them are rebels around Yuanzhou.

At this time, an astonishing news came from Yuanzhou City, because Wu Xueli's soldiers had been promiscuous in Yuanzhou City, Lu Daqi had to come forward and kill two heinous soldiers to resent.

As a result, it caused a mutiny, thousands of soldiers surrounded the Yuanzhou Mansion, to find Lu Daqi to discuss the law, and at the same time retaliated against the people in the city, Lu Daqi only had a thousand Jiangxi soldiers around him, and he did not dare to really clash with the left army, and was surrounded in the mansion and could not move.

The people in Yuanzhou City have been bullied and killed and plundered repeatedly, they can't bear it, there is a person named Huang Lianshan who climbed high and shouted, thousands of people actually responded violently, so that Yuanzhou City was first mutinied, and then there was a civil unrest, the people took advantage of the chaos to burn the barracks, snatched weapons, the fire soon spread in the city, a moment of thick smoke billowing out, this chaos together, the left army is to kill people when they see them, and more and more people are forced to resist, Huang Lianshan gathered tens of thousands of people in half a day, threatening to beat the city, defect to Qin Mu;

Because only Qin Mu treated the people in the city well during his stay in Yuanzhou, forbade soldiers to plunder, strictly implemented the "three disciplines and three attentions", and also released grain to help the people. The people in Yuanzhou City only remembered Qin Mu's goodness.

More than 20,000 left troops in the city, under the command of the general Xie Yishui, carried out a brutal massacre of the people who rose up to resist. More than 2,000 people died in half a day, but this not only failed to quell the civil unrest in Yuanzhou City, but on the contrary aroused the anger of more people, who were repeatedly looted and bullied, everything in their homes was robbed, and many women were dragged into the camp by the left army and ravaged wantonly, and they could not survive without resistance anyway. Therefore, under the instigation of Huang Lienshan, almost the whole city of the people went out and joined the rebellion against the left army.

In the city of Yuanzhou, every street. In every house, there were people with wooden sticks, bricks, stones, or snatched knives and guns, fighting with the left army, they took advantage of the advantage of being familiar with the terrain, constantly launched attacks on the left army, and at the same time organized young people to seize the city gate, trying to rush out of the city to join Qin Mu.

Lu Daqi, who was finally freed from the government, came forward to arrange for the people, and the people in the city did not like him at all. also smashed him with shit on his face, and Lu Daqi urgently recruited the 9,000 men and horses of Xu Kaijin, the general soldier of Jiangxi, to return to the city to quell the chaos, and at the same time sent someone to let Qin Mu lead the troops back to Yuanzhou.

The messenger rushed to Yuchun Mountain without stopping, and at this time, Qin Mu had already learned the news of the civil strife in Yuanzhou in advance. Urgent discussions are ongoing.

As soon as Lu Daqi's messenger arrived, Qin Mu immediately made a decision and decided to leave Ling Zhan with a hundred men and horses to stay in Yuchun Mountain, where there was a lot of grain and grass and the pack horses that had been captured. It must be guarded.

At the same time, Qin Mu also sent an order to Meng Ke, asking him to prepare to lead the army south to reinforce.

Qin Mu personally led 1,100 men and horses and hurried to Yuanzhou. On the avenue, a thousand people trotted forward, the sound of footsteps, Su Jin led more than 100 cavalry to the vanguard, Qin Mu and Huo Sheng, Liu Meng and discussed countermeasures while walking.

"What are you going to do?"

"I didn't think about it for a while, so let's go and see it first."

Liu Meng said: "My lord, the last general thinks that if we really go to Yuanzhou City, we will become very passive, which side will we help then?" Helping the Left Army kill the people, it is estimated that the adults will definitely not do this, on the other hand, if we help the people to fight the Left Army, things will only become more chaotic. ”

Huo Sheng continued: "The adults want to rescue the people in the city, and the last general will persuade the adults not to do this, not to mention how much turmoil it will cause, even if the adults successfully rescue tens of thousands of people in the city, then don't say anything else, just tens of thousands of mouths can eat us down, if we are rescued and ignored, it is better not to save them." ”

To be honest, the riot in Yuanzhou came too suddenly, there was no sign in advance, and Qin Mu was not prepared in the slightest, and he couldn't think of any good way to deal with it for a while.

He thought about it and said: "The problem is that this riot must be quelled as soon as possible, now the battle in Laohukou is tight, tens of thousands of rebels have infiltrated over, if this riot can not be quickly quelled, it will give people an opportunity to take advantage of, Wu Xueli's 80,000 horses are very likely to be completely defeated, at that time, we will have to go on top of ourselves, and Zhang Xianzhong's 200,000 army to the death, unless we watch Zhang Xianzhong's 200,000 army ravage Jiangxi, flanking southern Jiangnan, in short, let Wu Xueli be so defeated, it is very unfavorable to us." ”

"Are you planning to put an end to the chaos?"

"Let's go to Yuanzhou City first, and then it depends on the situation."

"The last general still thinks that we shouldn't go to this troubled water, at least the adults shouldn't go in person, so as not to directly face tens of thousands of people, there is no room for maneuver." Liu Meng suddenly thought that as long as Qin Mu didn't promise the people something personally, there would still be room for maneuver at that time.

His words made Qin Mu's mind seem to pass a little aura, but he couldn't grasp it, but he still decided to follow Liu Meng's advice first: "Okay, Liu Meng, when the time comes, the official will not come forward for the time being, and Su Jin will wait and see from the periphery, so you will come forward, if possible, in your name first, to pacify the people in the city." ”

"It's difficult, my lord, please think about it, the people have been released, and the left army in the city has been like fire and water, and the left army has also suffered a lot of casualties, even if the people are willing to listen to our appeasement, will the left army give up? They besieged the government, obviously they didn't take Lu Daqi in their eyes, and they couldn't stop them from continuing to kill, so we could only be forced to stand on the side of the people and fight hard with the left army. ”

Huo Sheng couldn't help but scold: "Damn, it's really a dog with a hedgehog, and I can't say anything." ”

Although this metaphor is ugly, it is a fact, to be honest, this feeling makes Qin Mu very unhappy, and the refreshing approach is undoubtedly to go directly into the city, and together with the people who want to defect to him, cut down the left army in the city;

But this is only a temporary pleasure, and there will be even greater trouble to face immediately. And these troubles will be unimaginable.

Forbearance is not comfortable, but if you want to achieve great things, you must learn the skill of forbearance.

Qin Mu had the heart to endure for a while, but the change of things was far from so simple, Su Jin in front of him came back with a flying horse at this time, and he couldn't wait to say a few feet away: "My lord, my lord, the big thing is not good, the people of Xu Kaijin, the general soldier of Jiangxi, also fought with the left army." ”

"What? What's going on? ”

"My lord, the people and horses of Xu Kaijin, the chief soldier of Jiangxi, are all from Jiangxi, the left army came from Jiujiang, and plundered all the way, and many of Xu Kaijin's soldiers suffered from this, and they originally hated the left army very much. This time Xu Kaijin 9,000 men and horses returned to the city to quell the chaos on the order of Lu Daqi, did not want to just enter the city gate and had a quarrel with the left army, the left army was like a mad dog, bite people when they saw it, Xu Kaijin's men and horses were shot dead for no reason, Xu Kaijin stepped forward to prevent the conflict between the two armies, but was seriously injured by the stray arrows shot by the left army, his men and horses saw that the commander was seriously injured, and the new hatred and old hatred came to his heart together, and the left army fought together, and now the three teams of Yuanzhou City are fighting together, all in chaos, and the entire Yuanzhou City is in chaos. ”

After hearing this, Qin Mu couldn't help but look up to the sky, like a mad demon.

It's ridiculous, I still want to take care of the overall situation, and I plan to endure it, but who endures it? Damn it, who put up with it?

Since you don't care about the overall situation, well, let's make the chaos more chaotic and make the muddy waters even more muddy!

"Give me the order, and the army will move forward at full speed. Su Jin, you lead the cavalry to Yuanzhou City first, try every means to get in touch with Huang Lianshan, let him seize the north gate, and I will lead the army to meet it. In addition, more detectives were sent in the direction of the Tiger Mouth, and paid close attention to the changes in the Tiger Mouth. ”

"The last will obey." Su Jin clenched his fists and galloped away.

Qin Mu took nearly a thousand infantry and began to run, rushing to Yuanzhou as fast as he could.

Now, Wu Xueli in Laohukou may withdraw his troops at any time, or even collapse, and Zhang Xianzhong's 200,000 troops will pour out like a flood that bursts the embankment
