"Tang Xiucai, don't ask so much, if you have something to say, you can let it go, if I know the way, why do you want you to be a sour show?"

Before Tang Yue explained, he always liked to ask Ma Liuliang first?

This made Ma Liuliang very unhappy, he was born from the grassroots, he didn't know a lot of big characters, and even the above table asked Qin Mu to fight, all of which were ghostwriters. The ability to march and fight is all accumulated by a knife and a gun.

Tang Yue, the "sour Xiucai", was appointed to his army by King Qin, if it weren't for this, it is estimated that he would be kicked away as soon as he entered the barracks, but after getting along for a long time, the two people with huge contrasts in personality actually reached some kind of delicate balance.

Tang Yue smiled faintly and continued to explain to him: "In the early years, the post road into Yunnan mainly started from Sichuan, crossed the high mountains and deep valleys in eastern Qinghai-Tibet and went straight to Yunnan, and the Mongol conquest of Yunnan was the reason for entering Yunnan.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the post road along the eastern coast of Qinghai-Tibet was still under the control of the remnants of the Mengyuan Dynasty, which was quite similar to the situation faced by our army now.

For this reason, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, a new post road in Guizhou was opened, from Yuanzhou in Hunan to Guiyang, and then to Qujing and Kunming in Yunnan. This is the only communication line between the hinterland of the Central Plains and Yunnan.

However, along the Guizhou line, there are also all the Tu ethnic groups living together, and they have not yet become kings, once there is a police in Guizhou, this lifeline is cut off, and the isolation of southern Yunnan will become a foreign land.

Therefore, if you want to get southern Yunnan, you must first engage in Guiyang, and if you want to get Guiyang, Yuanzhou to Guiyang, this important way to support is to control the important place. Therefore, in order to ensure the smooth flow of the post road from Guizhou to Yunnan, the Ming court could only set up more guards along the way. Troops were sent to protect the situation, and at the same time to contain the local situation and stabilize the situation.

Now that our army has entered Yunnan since then, we must also ensure that this post road is unblocked, otherwise our army will become a water without a source, a tree without roots, and will be isolated in a foreign land. And to control this post road, our troops are far from enough, which is why I asked General Ma to wait for He Tengjiao. ”

Tang Yue said that there was a reasonable and well-founded argument that all ethnic groups from the southwest rebelled and impermanent. to the importance of the post road into Yunnan. It's all very clear.

This made Ma Liuliang really realize that with the idea of fighting all the way by himself, it may be really difficult, but he is afraid of hitting the front. The back is reversed.

"He Tengjiao's guy may not really be able to play any role." Wan Liuliang argued in particular.

"General Ma's words are wrong. Saying goes. Whether the beauty is the hometown water, whether you are close to the hometown people. He Tengjiao was a rare member in Guizhou at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and his influence on Sangzi was extraordinary. He came forward to appease first. Even if the enemy army cannot be immediately submitted, it can greatly wear down the opponent's will to resist. ”

"You sour show has a good mouth, anyway, I can't talk about you."

Ma Liuliang was unconvinced, but from his tone, it could be heard that he had actually been persuaded by Tang Yue in his heart.

Tang Yue still didn't let him go, and then said: "If you want to conquer Guizhou, you must first understand the people of Guizhou, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, most of the garrisons in Guizhou have been eroded, and this time we will be deposed The biggest enemy will be the strength of the Tusi in Guizhou, General Ma can know about the Tusi in Guizhou?" ”

"I don't understand! I don't understand! Tang Xiucai, if you want to talk about it, just say it, and if you ask Lao Tzu again, your fart will come out. Ma Liuliang was annoyed and angry, and yelled a few times.

In this regard, the sergeants and soldiers of the army have long been surprised, and everyone exchanged a playful look, completely taking this scene as fun on the march.

Tang Yue didn't care either, on the contrary, it was also one of his pleasures to let Ma Liuliang, the "bandit leader", jump so violently.

When Qin Mu appointed him to come to Hengyang, in view of Ma Liuliang's character, he told him to have patience in person, and it was best to let this wolf maintain his original wild nature, and not let him become a wild horse that was free and reckless.

Qin Mu's earnest advice was still in his ears, and Tang Yue also believed that with his sincerity, he would be able to influence this stubborn stone sooner or later.

He continued: "This time in Guizhou, General Ma wants to find out who his main enemy is, but he has to listen well, the Ming generation has spent a lot of effort to reform the land in Guizhou and has achieved great results.

But there are two toasts, which we still have to look at cautiously, that is, Guizhou Xuanwei Si Shui Xi'an and Shuidong Song. The An's and Song's generations were bounded by the Yachi River in the upper reaches of the Wujiang River, the east of the river was under the control of the Song family, and the west of the river was under the control of the An family.

Shuixian clan's territory accounts for one-third of the area of Guizhou, and the power is very large, and the current Guizhou Xuanzhi is called Anrupan.

As for the Shuidong Song clan, the ancestors were the first Han people to enter Guizhou, and in the early Tang Dynasty, they set up a barbarian state in Guiyang, and the Song family served as the barbarian governor. For thousands of years, it has been controlling the surrounding areas of Guiyang, and although the territory of the Song clan is ten times smaller than that of the Shuixian clan, it is all over the surrounding provincial capital and has a strategic point.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Liu Shuzhen, the wife of Song Qin in Shuidong, presided over the expansion of the highway from Guiyang to Kaiyang to Banzhou, and with the post roads of Yunnan-Guizhou, Hunan-Guizhou and Sichuan-Guizhou, Guiyang's transportation strategy became increasingly important.

The rebellion of Lu'an that began in the first year of the Apocalypse lasted for seventeen years, Song Wanhua of the Song army in Shuidong participated in the rebellion, Chongzhen four years, loyal Marquis Qin Liangyu and others pacified the rebellion of Lu'an, the Ming court abolished the Guizhou Xuanwei Division and the Song Tusi, and its jurisdiction near Guiyang was changed to the jurisdiction of Guiyang Prefecture, and the state was opened with twelve horse heads.

However, the hundred-legged insects, dead but not stiff, the Shuidong Song clan still has a certain influence in Guizhou, this time into Guizhou, General Ma must distinguish between the enemy and us, and the Shuidong Song clan is the object of our army's wooing."

Ma Liuliang couldn't help but interrupt him and said: "Who you want to fight, who to win over, these are decided by you, the sour show, Lao Tzu only knows the way, whoever dares to stand in the way, Lao Tzu will step on him." ”

Tang Yue couldn't help but show a wry smile, saying so much, maybe this guy didn't listen to it at all, but if you want to take the southwest, although force is indispensable, you have to use some skillful strength, how to divide and suppress, and use raze to control it, the calculation is really complicated.

Ma Liuliang put on a look of shaking his hands and being in charge, which can be regarded as self-aware, these complicated calculations are indeed not suitable for him.

It took three days for the 3,000 men and horses to reach Pingxiwei, and it can be said that it was easy to walk, so that the army could be put into battle at any time without rest.

Pingxiwei is the dividing point between Huguang and Guizhou, and it is also a military key point that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

When Wang Yangming was relegated to Guizhou, he left "the mountain city is closed at dusk, the lights are across the water in the village, and the acres are idle for a long time, how can the minister answer Jun's grace." Verses.

As the poem says, this is indeed a mountain city, the north is bordered by the dancing water as clear as jade, and the mountain peaks across the river are towering like a screen, which is the throat of Guizhou.

There are some Dong people mountain households distributed outside the mountain city, there is a distance between the households, and they are not far apart, they are arranged according to the topography of the hillside, layer upon layer, and the houses are surrounded by green trees, and the environment is beautiful.

Its building is a wooden structure of stilted building, outer ring corridor type, stilted building has two floors, more than three floors, and has a large area of courtyard dam.

Seeing the arrival of the Qin army, not only did the mountain people here not flee, but some old Dong people took wine prepared with miscellaneous grains to treat the army, which made Ma Liuliang both happy and surprised;

I'm happy that I didn't expect myself to be so popular, but I'm surprised that these Dong people are not afraid of suffering from pond fish?

Xian Xinshan, one of the members who lurked here at night, finally solved Ma Liuliang's confusion: "Zeng Yi, the political envoy of Guizhou, Chen Ruizheng, the commander of the capital, and others imposed heavy taxes in order to raise military expenses. Pingxiwei borders with Yuanzhou, which has abolished all harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and in comparison, the burden on the people is much lighter;

The people near Pingxiwei saw it, and we made propaganda earlier, saying that where our Qin army passed, there was no crime in autumn. These mountain people naturally hoped that General Ma would come to rescue them from fire and water earlier, so how could they be afraid. ”

When Ma Liuliang heard this, he was even more happy, and he entangled Xian Xinshan and asked: "How many people and horses are there in Weibao now, and who is in command, you should always know this, right?" Say it! ”

Xian Xinshan replied: "General Hui, there are currently 2,000 defenders in Pingxi Weibao, which are commanded by Chen Guimin, the deputy commander of the Guizhou Metropolitan Command. ”

"No, why are there only 2,000 people, didn't it originally say that there were heavy troops stationed in Pingxi to guard our army?"

"General Hui, originally Pingxiwei did have 4,000 men and horses, but a few days ago, Shuixi Tusi An Rupan began to gather troops and horses, and the political envoy of Guizhou was worried that Guiyang would lose, so he transferred 2,000 men and horses back to Weiqingwei in the northwest of Guiyang. It was with only 2,000 people left in Pingxiwei. ”

"Haha, God help me! Sons, hurry up and set up camp and build a ladder, tomorrow"

Tang Yue saw that Ma Liuliang was really going to be brutal, and hurriedly persuaded: "General Ma, don't be hasty, let's observe the other party's city defense first." ”

"It's up to you to say that." Ma Liuliang glanced at him disdainfully, and shouted to the deputy general: "He Jinan, you are responsible for commanding the camp, and you will go and take a look." ”

After Ma Liuliang finished speaking, he took a team of personal soldiers and went straight to Pingxi Castle.
