Shao Song
Vol 2 Chapter 12: Strong and weak
Yue Fei did what he said, and the barracks seemed to be really prepared. He promised Zhang Jun that afternoon that he would send troops directly in the rain the next morning.
The army was divided into two. Among them, Li Kui led an army of two thousand people to go straight to Gulouzhai... Yes, that Yang Guangzhen rebelled for the fourth time; and at the same time, the rain continued to flow, in front of the imperial camp. The military capital was under the control of Yue Fei himself, and he personally led the main force of Huarong Camp with more than 10,000 men and several generals, marching westward in the rain.
Almost only the soldiers and logistic personnel in the army were left unmoved.
Zhang Jun can be regarded as some kind of doing what he said, he really followed, but he didn't ride a horse-the rain was too heavy, the road was muddy, and the horse was a joke.
In this way, whether it was Zhang Jun, the master of the king, and Yue Fei, the master of Jiedushi, both wearing hats, robes, and straw sandals, trekking on the muddy roads in the south of the Yangtze River, they led the army to Going counterclockwise and advancing westward along Dongting Lake, and successfully arrived at Anxiang, Lizhou, more than 60 miles away that day, but did not enter the city, but went straight across Lishui and came to a big camp on the opposite bank.
Here, it is another core camp established by the Song Army on the north side of Dongting Lake. The deputy governor Ma Gao and several other commanders led by more than 10,000 people were waiting here early.
The two armies converged, and the troops here have reached 25,000. The main force of the former army of Yue Fei's imperial camp is considered to have completed the assembly in the rain, and because of the rain, the enemy army actually did not notice.
Taking into account that at night time, Li Kui sent the rebel general with the same name as Emperor Sui Yang to the first level. Then on the first day, the results of the imperial front army broke through zero combat merits, at least forty villages, four prefectures and seven. One village in the county has been cut off.
In the morning of the second day, despite the fact that the rapid march of sixty miles in the rain yesterday had caused considerable reductions in troops, Yue Fei once again ordered a selection of 20,000 combatable soldiers from the whole army to set off together, and headed west separately under the slightly reduced rain. , Advance southward.
Among them, the troops from the Yuan'an Township Camp directly divided their troops to the west. Wang Shan and Zhang Yong each led two thousand soldiers to fetch two inland towns such as Qinghua and Aoshan, and Ma Gao himself was the same as his wife. Zhang Qing together supervised the five thousand people who went straight to the capital of Dingzhou that had fallen before, the so-called Wuling County, one of the seven counties.
As for the troops of the original Huarong Camp, they began their arduous march again. They still marched counterclockwise along Dongting Lake, but crossed the border of Lizhou in the afternoon when the rain slowed down, arrived in Dingzhou, and then arrived. Chongxiao Town, and half surrounded a large rebel water village located here.
The reason why is said to be half-encircled is that the village has a waterway leading to Dongting Lake and a small port, which the Song Army can't handle at all.
Of course, it’s not necessary... After all, Yue Fei’s army took advantage of the rain to cover nearly one hundred and twenty-three miles in two days. Although it was far inferior in all respects when Li Yan went to Caizhou on a snowy night, it was also It's commendable. In the face of such a large army raid, the reaction of the rebels in Chongxiao Water Village was no better than that of the defenders of Caizhou.
The former army of the 10,000-plus imperial army was like a **** from heaven. Suddenly, the rain half surrounded the Chongxiao Dazhai, which had only 3,000 rebels. The chaos in the village was almost visible to the naked eye, but Yue Pengju only allowed the whole army to stand properly. He also personally led a few Chinese soldiers to settle on a small **** beside the lakeside of the water village, and did not order an attack...Sure enough, an envoy came out trembling to see Yue Fei soon.
"It's Han Xiaoyi, if you come, you can save some things." Seeing that someone plopped and knelt directly towards him in the muddy water, Yue Fei, who had just taken off the hat, stared at the drizzle and stared at each other.
"For more than a month, this person has been running in Anxiang and Huarong for the Huxi villages to make contact."
In other words, although Zhang Jun claimed that he didn't ask much, but it was the official patriarch, how could Yue Fei be so ignorant that he would not leave a professional narrator for the country's highest military commander? Therefore, there was Bi Jin who had been with Yue Fei's military school, and he had been with him early on. When he saw this person at this time, he directly reported in a low voice. "And this person is the confidant of Huang Zuo, the leader of this village. As for Huang Zuo, he is the leader of the Lizhou area in the rebel army. He is extremely powerful and prestigious. He is the second only to Zhong Xiang and Yang Yao in the rebel army. A big leader meant that he was defeated by my family Jieshuai in the north, and the land along the lake in Lizhou was lost, so he retreated to Dingzhou Lizhai with the rest of Lizhou rebels...and Dingzhou is the hometown of Zhong Xiang."
Zhang Jun learned that Yue Fei took down the hat, but he was expressionless, turning a deaf ear to Bi Jin's explanation.
"Little Yi."
dozens of steps away, just when Han Xiaoyi on the ground was about to speak, Yue Fei directly raised his hand to interrupt the other party, and then told him in awe. "Now I'm talking about it, you can speak to Huang Zuo clearly, you don't need to interrupt."
Han Xiaoyi immediately kowtowed in the muddy water.
After a while, Yue Pengju learned the method of using the numbers listed in the Dibao, and said a few words frankly:
"First, I have come to this end of the army, and I have to decide the life and death with Zhong Xiang and Yang Yao. There will be no more delays, and no more room for the two ends of the mouse.
Secondly, tell Huang Zuo that the military position I used for recruiting and surrendering this time has only one commanding officer. If he is surrendered, it will be his.
Third, regardless of whether he surrenders or not, the innocent Lizhou women and children in the village can be settled in their hometown of Lizhou. I take my life as an official security, and I will never pursue accountability after the war.
Fourth, my person, the strength of my subordinates, and my sincerity. If he wanted to know that a few months ago, he would have known... Therefore, I am now taking two quarters of an hour to wait for him to come down. If he comes, it will be me. The former army officer of the imperial camp; if I don’t come, I will have to send an army to break this village, find him, drag him here, and get a canonical punishment!
Finally, there is a first level here. Take it away and go! "
Han Xiaoyi didn't say a word, but knocked his head heavily in the muddy water, then got up, lowered his head and took a wooden bucket from Wang Gui's hand on one side.
Looking at this scene, Zhang Jun, standing in the queue of Yue Fei's army under the slight rain, was completely unreserved. However, after all, he was a famous place for young people. The elites have already fully awakened in their hearts:
Where does he not know? This Huang Zuo should be a big leader of the rebel army who is not small, that is, the original leader of the Hubei area that was regained by the official army. Now he has lost his foundation, and he was curled up in the west of the lake for a while, and he could not even enter Wuling City. It can be seen quite a bit. Some give it a taste. And these talents are the most suitable targets for soothing, and it should be Yue Fei's true intentions during the past few months. As for Yang Guang of the Gulouzhai, it is better to show sincerity, plus the chess pieces to deceive the rest of the rebels... Jun No, have even people like Xi Yi and Ma Shen been deceived?
With so much hard work, coupled with the sudden fall of the spring rain today, when these people were completely relaxed, the officers and soldiers suddenly surrounded them with a large force in the rain. Yue Fei was so energetic and powerful, thinking that Huang Zuo as long as he was not a man. Frozen, it's time to leave and descend quickly.
Sure enough, just when Zhang Jun's heart became clear, as that Han Xiaoyi sent Yang Guang's head and Yue Fei's words into the village together, just after a stick of incense, one was dressed in leather armor and half naked. An Ang Zang man with an arm and a large spear led dozens of similarly dressed fishermen out of the village, and then under the leadership of Han Xiaoyi, he went directly to Yue Fei. It should be Huang Zuo.
And this Huang Zuo led a dozen of Zhaizhong officers and guards to a few dozen steps away from Yue Fei, then he stopped actively, then threw his spear in public, and was about to untie his armor... Obviously, this was To rebel and unarmed, I came down with Li Lai.
But at this time, Yue Fei, who had been squinting at Huang Zuo and his party, suddenly said loudly after dozens of steps: "Don't disarm!"
Huang Zuo was slightly startled, but he immediately stopped and wanted to come directly empty-handed.
"Bring your weapon!" Yue Fei squinted again.
Huang Zuo was stunned again, but he still chose to obey his orders. He picked up his spear directly from the mud and moved forward. When he was seven or eight steps away from Yue Fei, he took the initiative to hold the spear upside down, and he wanted to kneel down and beg to descend.
"You don't have to kneel either." Yue Fei interrupted the opponent aloud for the third time. "Huang Commander, as soon as you are here, you are the former commander of my imperial camp. How do you disarm, abandon your soldiers, and kneel down? There is a difference between up and down, just sing to me."
Huang Zuo was finally relieved, he squeezed his spear to make a hand at Yue Fei, and then lowered his head to face each other: "Taiwei, I am grateful for Taiwei's grace and several months of patience, so I came and descended. Before everything, I hope Taiwei forgive me. "
"I have forgotten everything before." Yue Fei squinted at the top. "And the country's major events are ahead, you and I shouldn't talk about it... Wang Fudutong!"
Wang Gui immediately went out and stood side by side with Huang Zuo.
"I'll give you five thousand soldiers, immediately cross the Yuanjiang River south, and rush towards Chenyang!" Yue Fei's expression remained unchanged, and he ordered sharply. "Be sure to take down this city with me!"
"Here." Wang Gui left in response, and several generals followed, without stopping.
"Huang controls." Yue Fei continued to be condescending on Xiaopo, giving orders.
"Yes!" Huang Zuodeng, who couldn't help but peeking at Wang Gui, gave a shudder.
"To the east and southeast, there are still two villages along the lake. They are Hanwanzizhai and Fushuizhai. Each has only four or five hundred soldiers. I am going to make you a military order to let you move eastward immediately, whether it is. Recruitment is still a force attack. Before tonight, you must take it! Otherwise, the military order will be dealt with!" Yue Feizhen ordered the order as usual, as if the person in front of him was an old subordinate who had followed for many years.
Let’s also say that of the two stockades, one was set up by the defeated Lizhou army, and the other was Zhong Xiangpai who came to the pass of Dongting Lake to monitor and guard Lizhou people. How did Huang Zuo not know? The previous moment was the rebel army, and at this moment he had to be an officer and army to conquer. How could he adapt?
However, just as Huang Zuo raised his head and opened his mouth to make a rebuttal, he was watching Yue Fei standing in front of him and staring at himself, his eyes were one big and one small, and he kept watching in the rain. This person was shocked. Yu, when the words came to the lips, they turned around, only a mere word remained:
"Hey!"
"Can you ask for military subsidies?" Yue Fei kept asking.
"Don't."
"Can you ask for the assistance of soldiers and horses?"
"Neither!"
"Then do it quickly."
Huang Zuo once again slammed his spear, and then turned back to the village...At this time, Wang Gui had already begun to lead his troops south, and there had been a clear encirclement gap around Chongxiao Dazhai, and soon, Huang Zuo led about two The subordinates of the Thousands of People were divided into two. They were sent on both land and water, passing directly through the army formation that was the enemy just now, and along the waterway to the east.
In such a situation, whether it is the former army of the imperial camp or the headquarters of Huang Zuo, they all feel weird, but they have nothing to say.
But no matter what, for a moment, I watched all the troops out of the village. There were only old and weak families in the village. However, Yue Fei did not say a word, and directly camped outside Chongxiao village, waiting for news.
In the evening of the same day, Huang Zuo summoned to Hanwanzizhai, smashed the Floating Zhaizhai, and raised the head of the Floating Zhaizhai guard to return. Before that, Ma Gao, Wang Shan, and Zhang Yong had each succeeded, Qinghua, Aoshan, and even Wuling. The city was easily broken under the raid of the imperial army.
On this day, the former army of the imperial camp broke through Wuzhai and took one county, which is progressing smoothly.
There was no word for a night. The next day, the weather cleared. Yue Fei once again called Huang Zuo and Han Senzhai leader Guo Tai, and asked them to continue down the Dongting Lake and continue southward, sweeping, raiding, and surrendering along the lake water village, and then personally supervised the five thousand following them. Rear. At the same time, he also ordered Ma Gao and others to immediately go south to the Yuanjiang River, flood the water, and march from the land to the Hunan area and the Xiangshui area to conquer the city.
And within this day, Huang Zuo and others once again surrendered the two villages and broke the two villages. Among them, another Dazhai village owner Yang Qin also chose to surrender unexpectedly. At the same time, Wang Gui also defeated Chenyang.
Time came to the fourth day. Yue Fei, who had crossed the Yuanjiang River, did not go to Chenyang City. Instead, he ordered the whole army to mix with Huang Zuo, Yang Qin, Guo Tai and others, and attacked Yuanjiang River and Zhushui River at the same time. In the eight water villages, and once again led by Wang Gui, headed towards Yiyang County on the bank of the waterlogged side, and continued to supervise the army behind.
At this time, Song Jun was already able to ride a horse, and Zhang Shuxiang was able to fulfill his big words, and he was able to sit on his horse and continue to march with Yue Fei's army.
Let’s say, the pivot has already relaxed a lot at this time, but as the news of success in the water villages came one by one, Yue Fei said again at this time:
"From this point of view, it doesn't take ten days to succeed in seven or eight days, and tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, you can make a decisive battle and defeat Zhong Xiang."
Zhang Jun said he didn't take the initiative to speak, so he just frowned immediately.
Of course, Yue Fei had to take care of the leadership’s emotions, so he took the initiative to go hand in hand to explain to Zhang Deyuan: “Zhong Xiang was originally from Dingzhou, and he is currently in Yuanjiang (county name, where the old Yuanjiangkou is located, between Dongting Lake and Chiting Lake). On the peninsula, it does not refer to the river water), the person is moving slowly. If he could not detect the action the day before, but he should have noticed the behavior yesterday, but there was no movement. This is what he never expected. Therefore, if it can sweep the eighth today If the village succeeds, Zhong Xiang will fall into death, and he will be broken tomorrow!"
Zhang Jun finally showed his joy: "If you can win the clock, this battle will be considered a victory!"
Yue Fei shook his head and corrected seriously:
"The pivot is not aware of anything, even if it is based on the bandit leader, it is only half the victory, and it depends on Yang Yao's movements."
Zhang Jun didn't understand again, and couldn't open his mouth to ask, so he looked back at Bi Jin behind him.
Bi Jin didn't dare to neglect, and immediately stepped forward to become an instructor.
It turned out that Zhong Xiang was a witch from the ancestors of Dingzhou. He was known as the Great Sage Grandpa. He also established an association in Dongting Lake. He harvested money and food in good years, helped the poor in disaster years, and had a great influence. He was a natural leader of the rebel army. The kind that can be shaken.
But to be honest, such a person is essentially impossible to break away from the situational mentality of the tyrants and the witchcraft family... Therefore, when the rebels were at their peak before, the power once affected more than a dozen state forces in Hunan and Hubei, but in that case he did not. He didn’t want to make progress, but left all the front-line affairs to Yang Yao. Instead, he hurriedly became king in his hometown of Dingzhou, built a palace in Yuanjiang County, and widely selected the prince and princess for his son Zhong Zhiyi to find a special character. The woman inherited from generation to generation, so that his family Chu Wang Jiye passed on from generation to generation.
Therefore, this Dongting Lake rebellion actually has two actual leaders, one is Zhong Xiang and the other is Yang Yao.
"I don’t know. When I first came to Hubei, I heard a joke." After all, Bi Jin is young, and he is getting more and more familiar with Zhang Jun. After clarifying Yang Yao’s special leadership status, he said for a while. Endless. "It is said that Zhong Xiang’s family has a large population. After he becomes the king, the whole family must enjoy the blessings. The family’s bed must be inlaid with gold and jade. People went to various rebels to find... In the end, the rebels in Xiangyin couldn't be harassed by him, so they had to recruit craftsmen, collect gold and jade, and built a batch of gold-inlaid jade beds for the king of Chu. It's up."
Bi Jin's words seem to express his disdain for Zhong Xiang. However, Zhang Jun heard this, not only he was not happy, but frowned, which made the former confuse him for a while.
In this way, the former army of the imperial camp marched forward in Yuanjiang County, and the good news along the way was almost one after another. First, Huang Zuo and others descended to the front, and under the mixed attack of the former army of the imperial camp, the people along the lake in Dingzhou The rebel water villages were unable to sustain themselves. Among them, Sanzhai was surrendered and Wuzhai was destroyed. Sure enough, only Yuanjiang Zhongxiang, Gucheng, and Guzhai were left alone in Dingzhou. Yue Fei's military progress was fully up to expectations.
But that's not counting. As Yue Fei's headquarters entered Yuanjiang County, in the afternoon, Wang Gui suddenly heard an even more exciting news:
The former deputy commander of the imperial army was in the middle of attacking Yiyang, and suddenly discovered that Yang Yao was leading the main rebel forces in the Xiangshui River basin to cross the floodwater from the lower reaches, as if he was coming to aid Dingzhou and Yuanjiang. However, Wang Gui pretended not to know that he had already controlled a city gate, but continued to pretend to attack the city. When Yang Yao crossed the river and hurriedly led seven or eight thousand troops to aid Yiyang, he turned around to meet him, and both sides were in the wild. Fierce fighting broke out, and Yang Yao lasted only half an hour before he was defeated like a mountain, and was driven to Yuanjiang by Wang Gui.
I just said that Zhong Xiang and Yang Yao need to win together to be considered as ending the rebellion, and Yang Yao is now surrendering to the snare... and up and down are naturally excited for a while.
It was Zhang Jun who heard that the war ahead was beyond expectation. Not only was he unhappy, but his face became worse, as if he had other thoughts in his heart.
And very quickly, as Yue Fei did not make any emergency actions, but only sent a messenger to let the troops from all over the place properly gather and encircle, and not to enter without permission, the pivot who did not take the initiative to speak out the whole process finally couldn't bear it.
The grass grows and the warbler flies, the Dongting Lake is slightly turbulent, and on the side of an unknowing how many acres of wide reeds, Zhang Deyuan suddenly stopped his horse, and then shouted to the opponent on the spot:
"Yue Du Tong!"
"The end is here." Yue Fei seemed to have expected it, so he simply reined in his horse and turned around and bowed his hands.
"Do you know what I want to ask?" Zhang Jun's face was already pale.
"I can probably guess it."
"Let's listen." Zhang Jun's breath gradually became unstable.
"There are a lot of doubts in Zhuxiang's heart, but for the moment, Xiaofang probably wants to ask, why not seize Yuanjiang County, but deliberately indulge and allow Yang Yao to move freely in Yuanjiang? The big place is also the Shuxiang. What I have been patient with is that the rebels are so vulnerable and can obviously destroy the dryness, why did the imperial army stay still? Why didn't they put the chaos in the first place, and what vain tricks? But in the end of the general's opinion , These two..."
"Do you know that too?!"
Before the other party finished speaking, Zhang Jun was completely furious. "I have already seen it now, whether ten days or five days, or January? The key is that the rebels are so vulnerable, where is there any need to pacify them? We will ask for forgiveness when the time comes. The clerical question is, why do you want to change the performance of the music to the solicitor? If you were directly enterprising Huxi and Hunan at that time, the chaos of the previous year would have been gone! The officials treated you like a mountain, and in the past few years, you will be a criminal army. Jiedushi, is that what you did? I tell you, if you don’t give me a reason to convince me today, and return to the center, no matter how you Yue Fei uses Dasheng to block the mouths of the people of the world, and regardless of the officialdom How to stubbornly favor you, I, Zhang Jun, will not want this pivot, and I will also send you out of the army as an enemy player!"
The sergeants and soldiers around each were panicked, but Yue Fei was silent for a moment, but continued to hold his hands to each other, frankly telling: "Pivot, the general will never play an enemy. As for the reasons for stopping in Hubei before...it is true. It is the official army that cannot defeat the rebels! And I will take the liberty of not only the former army of the imperial battalion, but also other parts of the imperial battalion, I am afraid that it will not be able to defeat the rebels on the lake."
Zhang Jun was startled for a moment. I don’t know if he didn’t hear it clearly, or he was angry to some extreme, but he held the horse rein and said in a daze, "What did you say, you say it again."
"We can't beat the rebels." Yue Fei reined in his horse and stood still, his voice was clear and unmistakable, so he simply said twice. "Pivot, the last general just said, we can't beat the rebels!"
Zhang Jun was very angry and simply waved his horse whip and scolded: "Wuling City fell in the first battle, Chenyang City fell in the first battle, Yiyang City fell in the first battle, and the seventeen villages in the west of the lake were flat on three days. Yang Yao's main force was eight thousand people. The troops that were half of your 5,000 siege siege were smashed head-on, plus you went south from Xiangyang and won consecutive battles all over Hubei... Now you are telling me that the official army can't beat the rebels, so you are Change the army to attack... Do you think I am blind?!"
"Don't get angry at the pivot." Yue Fei calmly faced each other without fear. "Please think about it carefully. In these wars, all Linhu water villages were really defeated by officials and soldiers?"
Zhang Jun opened his mouth to scold him, but suddenly slapped his spirits, and then hovered the horse's head in a circle. After standing, the anger of thunder was gone.
Yue Fei sighed when he saw the other party awakening, and then he said sincerely: "Public, you can see clearly with the army. This battle went well because all the land battles were fought by officers and soldiers, while Linhu Water Village was all local rebels in Dongting Lake. I have captured...water battles and land battles are completely different. Regardless of whether the army on the land battles the city or the field, it is a matter of forgiveness to speak big words. But Linhu water village, also forgive me. The final will be incompetent. Since the last year he went to the lake, there is no certainty that he will win no matter how he thinks about it. He can break the village for a while, and he will not be able to wipe out the pirates in it. Let him travel freely from the lake and set up water. The village keeps on. Therefore, if you can't fight, you can't fight! It's just that there are too many people in the middle and local areas who don't know the soldiers, and only seeing how easy it is to capture the lost ground in Hubei before the general, I assume that fighting near the lake will be so easy. As everyone knows, if you want to break this water village along the lake, you can only use the water village to hit the water village and the lake people to hit the lake people. There is no other way!"
Zhang Jun didn't say a word, but after a few rounds in his heart, he had already believed the words ten percent.
Because there are too many intuitive examples.
The Golden Army cavalry was invincible on the plain, and as a result, they were helpless by fishermen and merchant ships in the Liangshanbo Lake and the Huai River respectively. The Western Army was turned into chickens by the Golden Army on the open plains, and turned to stand in the mountains of northern Shaanxi. But it can beat the golden man.
And in the past few days, he personally followed Yue Fei to advance along the lake, and saw with his own eyes that Dongting Lake was hundreds of miles around. With the rising and falling of the water, the branch roads, mud marshes, and ditches were as many as cow hair, but it was exactly where it was difficult to use soldiers. It's just that the first two days were marching non-stop, and I was too tired to think about it. In the next two days, the war went so smoothly that it was dizzying, but I ignored these things.
"In that case, you deliberately didn't take Yuanjiang City, but hoped that Yang Yao could put it in. Once he went to the city, it would be convenient for you to surround and eat this person?" After thinking for a while, Zhang Jun let out a dry cough, and then tentatively asked again.
"Yes." Yue Fei answered sincerely. "If he can enter the city, it is better not to leave Zhong Xiang, then it is the Heavenly Help Officer Army."
"Although there have been many wars in the previous few days, the only key point was whether Huang Zuo could be forced to surrender that day, and then he was asked to lead the Lizhou rebels to attack the Dingzhou rebels? And whether it was the previous raid in the rain, Still wandering for several months, or driving all the Lizhou rebels to the Huxi area, in fact, you did it intentionally, fortunately to work **** him?" Zhang Jun continued to'wake up', or say to wake up.
"Yes!" Yue Fei replied. "In fact, after Huang Zuo led his troops to attack other water villages that day, the end general knew that this battle was finished, and the next thing was nothing more than a day earlier and a day later. The only thing he was concerned about was Yang Yao. Will this person escape into the Lake Nakanoshima and wait for a resurgence in the future."
Zhang Jun nodded again and again, then sighed and said again, but he wanted to continue to hide his embarrassment: "That's why Pengju procrastinated again and again, from winter to spring, and then to the moment, it is to deliberately show the enemy. Weak, in order to prevent Huang Zuo from disturbing?"
Yue Fei nodded, then shook his head: "It is necessary to show that the enemy is weak, and it is inevitable to prevent Huang Zuo from disturbing Huang Zuo, but the reason why it will not be published until today is more so as not to delay spring ploughing..."
"What?" Zhang Jun was stunned and absurd again.
But this time, he felt that the other party's words were absurd to a certain extreme, but there was a hint of guilty conscience and shortness of breath.
It is said that Zhang Jun left Beijing this time because of the impeachment of Yue Fei by many local officials, which triggered a political wave. Among these reasons for impeachment and opposition, the biggest problem is in essence, Yue Fei’s use of troops delayed and delayed spring ploughing... This is an extremely deadly issue for public and private, and it is also what Zhang Jun did before Yue Fei. Confidently and confidently, he lashed out at a handsome official's moral confidence.
And just now, Zhang Jun already knew that Yue Feigai did not advance quickly because of the huge risks in the military, and there was no complaint in his heart. Up to now, I just have nothing to look for, so I don't have to be too embarrassed.
However, now the other party actually tells him that he hasn't entered the army for a long time, besides the necessity of military needs, there is actually the reason that he does not want to delay spring ploughing.
what is this?
"Do not hide the pivot."
The weather was clear, and the grass on the lakeside was long with warblers flying, and the blue waves were refreshing, but Yue Fei glanced at the spring scene before continuing to explain. "On Huang Zuo's side, the end will be assured at the beginning of this year. Only from the military point of view, he could have used troops immediately to end the battle at the beginning of the year. But the spring of Jiangnan came extremely fast, that is, at that time, from Hunan. Spring plowing began in various places around Dongting Lake. Spring plowing began in the government area, and the areas occupied by the rebels were also spring plowing. Moreover, because the rebels were rich and poor, and divided fields, the scale of spring plowing was related to the scale of spring plowing in various parts of the west of Hunan Lake. The area seems to be a bit more prosperous than the government jurisdiction...This is a rare sight in chaos."
Zhang Jun stood on the horse and turned behind him from the lake. At this time, the empire's chief noticed for the first time the luxuriant crops by the lake and the piles of paddy fields. Although no one came out to take care of them because of the army, but after the spring rain, Naturally a splendid scene.
When I looked closer, I saw that the army in front of the imperial camp was obviously marching carefully. Everyone was marching along the lakeside and field ridges, and no one dared to step on the young crops, and it became more and more shocked.
"In fact, how can I not know the difficulties of the surrounding officials? The rebellion lasted for half a year, the population escaped and the desertion was serious, and tens of thousands of troops were entrenched here, which made the local supply difficult. It is normal for the local governors and officials to have grievances. Only the last general thought that the people under the jurisdiction of the Hubei government were ordinary people, and the people in the areas under the rebels in Hunan and Huxi would be the people of the Song Dynasty sooner or later. The spring ploughing in the government areas in the north should not be delayed, and the spring ploughing in the rebel areas in the south should not be delayed. hold up."
Yue Fei kept talking today, and it was better than the sum of words with Zhang Jun in the past few days. It can be seen that his heart is still a little depressed about those impeachment and accusations.
"If the generals used troops at that time, probably the central and local officials, plus the people in Hubei would be happy, but what about the people in Hunan and the west? They really dare to come out to plant rice seedlings when the two armies are at war? Then the end will drop here and take After the military service leaves, who will care if they will become hired laborers or even continue to be lake bandits in the future? Therefore, the final will only delay a little, determined to wait until the spring ploughing and planting, and then before the spring floods, in order to make a result, Unexpectedly, Shu Xiang has already headed south...This matter, I still hope Shu Xiang Haihan."
Zhang Jun had red ears on the horse, and for a few moments he wanted to hold his hands and praised him as the "pillar of the country", "it is the blessing of the emperor and the country to have this handsome minister," but he thought of Ma Shen and Xi Yier before. People's words are insufferable, thinking that I have repeatedly criticized the person in front of me, but I want to find a place to go in. Where can I do such a gesture?
The troops continued to advance. In the evening, the front army reported that someone had escaped from Yuanjiang City, saying that Yang Yao had already entered Yuanjiang County and asked Zhong Xiang and his son to take a boat with him into the lake for a while, but they were met. Refuse.
However, this information doesn't matter anymore, because at this time, even if Yang Yao and his son Zhong Xiang go out of the city, they will only be intercepted by the Song Army who desperately overtakes the isolated city and Dongting Lake.
Moreover, Yue Fei knew from the beginning that the water village next to the lake and the city not next to the lake are two roads to life and death for the rebels. The water village that leads to the big lake is the thing that officers and soldiers fear the most. On the contrary, it is something in the bag that the officers and soldiers can take away at any time; and he also knows that the two groups of leaders, Yang Yao and Zhong Xiang, father and son, are two lives and deaths for the rebels. Yang Yao is the real one who stands out in the rebellion. Leader, the latter is just a spiritual leader.
However, this rebel commander who knows everything has been pretending not to know anything, just driving the rebels to death.
In fact, it’s not that the rebels have no way of life. After Yang Yao’s defeat in the day, regardless of Zhong Xiang, father and son, and other cities, he plunged straight into the lake, and the gods could not take him down, but if he could not take him for a day, it was the rebellion for a while. In the future, the prestige and ability of this person will inevitably be able to rely on the strong foundation of witchcraft and the revival of local people.
But the problem is that the rebels themselves don't know. They always think that the city is strong and the water village is weak...Even Yang Yao himself, after being defeated by Yue Fei in Hubei, thought that Grandpa Grandpa was the most important.
This is very helpless.
Returning to the front, Yue Fei sent troops on the fifth day, not to mention the peripheral sweep work and the removal of water villages in Hunan. Yang Yao and Zhong Xiang were surrounded by groups in Yuanjiang County.
The soldiers and horses outside the city were half the court officials and half the rebels who had just surrendered. So far, Zhong Xiang and Yang Yao hadn’t figured out why they suddenly fell into this situation...Of course, the king of Chu. His Royal Highness has always been an official match to the embarrassed face, and Grandpa Dasheng knew that he would come.
In the morning, Yue Fei declined all kinds of requests from the descending army to ask for a battle, and please be a lobbyist~www.wuxiaspot.com~ only because of the hard work of fighting for days, so that these people can watch the battle with peace of mind. In the afternoon, this handsome man sent his troops to his head, equipped with extremely simple bumpers, ladders, ropes, and a few gunpowder bags wrapped in oilcloth, and launched a full-scale siege war.
The rebels in the city are all confidants of the ‘King of Chu’ Zhongxiang. Eight of them have never been on the battlefield, and the not-so-large city wall was dug out of many building materials when Zhong Xiangyu built his palace in the city.
Therefore, the frontier army of the imperial camp rushed forward, filled the ditch with soil, suppressed with crossbows, climbed the wall first, and the town of Yuanjiang County was almost broken in one blow. The surrendering rebels surrounding the army can only be stunned by the strength of the official army. Fortunately, Yu chose to surrender.
After all, such a city is just one stream, how can the tattered water village of one's own house withstand such a powerful army?
The difference between strength and weakness is clear at a glance.
PS: Huang Zuo should be the prototype of Wang Zuo in Yue.
"It is difficult for the king to hit the water bandits, and the water bandit is easy for the water bandits" is the original explanation of Zhang Jun by Yue Fei in history.
Most people think it was Yang Yao on Dongting Lake, except for the flies. It is actually an allusion from the Wuling Rebellion. It should have nothing to do with Yang Yao... But it is said that Yue and many literati notes mix many allusions together, which makes people It's not clear at all.
