Chapter 246 Li Dingguo Offers a Plan
After Zhang Xianzhong's plan to go to Jianchang Prefecture to rob a large family failed, he began to secretly contact various bandits to join his old camp, preparing to join forces again and find a place to attack.
However, after this period of encirclement and suppression by officers and soldiers, some of the rogue bandits scattered throughout Jiangxi were eliminated. Some felt that there was no future for them as rebels and ran away on their own.
In the end, only half of the rebel army was gathered before. Zhang Xianzhong had no choice but to win the battle. It was easy to recruit people. With casual promotion, a large number of people who could not survive would join the rebel army. But once the battle was defeated, those who ran away would
More, everyone is so realistic.
After this battle, Zhang Xianzhong was shaken about his life goals. He originally thought that he was a good person, but he didn't expect that there were so many good people in the world. His hands were still a little numb after being hacked twice by Huang Degong...
....
In a mountain col, Zhang Xianzhong rubbed his hands and asked everyone: "Who is commanding the officers and soldiers now?"
His adopted son Sun Kewang said: "Father, the officers and soldiers are flying the banner of the Crown Prince, especially Huang Degong, who has been chasing us from behind."
Zhang Xianzhong cursed: "Damn it! Are these dog officers and soldiers possessed by evil spirits this year? They chased me all the way! There is also the emperor's son. I cursed him to get acne, and when he recovered, he still had a pockmarked face!"
Everyone was speechless and embarrassed to say anything to him. The rebels were forced to be so embarrassed, and everyone was angry.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhang Xianzhong said again: "What should we do next? Where to go? Let's discuss it together."
Luo Rucai coughed and said: "The situation is not very clear now. The officers and soldiers will definitely not stop here. They will definitely surround our rebel army. It depends on whether we can withstand it. If we can't, then there is nothing we can say."
No need to say anything, just run away."
Zhang Xianzhong said unhappily: "Aren't you talking nonsense? The emperor's son came all the way to Jiangxi just to deal with us? If you can't stand it, run away. If you can't stand it, what should you do? Where should you go?"
The current situation made Luo Rucai's head swell. He pondered for a moment and said: "It's definitely not possible to go to Guangdong. The Guangdong and Guangxi areas are too poor. It's pretty stable there. We can't get a foothold in Fujian.
There was also a disaster every year, and many people ran to the chicken coop, but few people rebelled..."
Zhang Xianzhong said displeased: "Then we can only wait to die?"
Sun Kewang suddenly said: "Father, the richest man in our Ming Dynasty is in Fujian. I heard that the man named Zheng can earn tens of millions of taels of silver a year. How about we go and rob him?"
Luo Rucai glanced at him and said: "Hopefully, if you want to die, your uncle won't hold you back. How can you offend Zheng? It doesn't matter if the court doesn't know Zheng's strength, let's come out to rob him anyway."
I’ve been doing this for several years, but you don’t know what’s going on in various places?”
Sun Kewang hesitated and said: "Master Cao, is this person named Zheng very powerful?"
Luo Rucai rolled his eyes and said: "This man named Zheng has tens of thousands of men. The personal guards are either black guys or red-haired and yellow-haired ghosts. I don't know where they got them from. These red and yellow black people are very good at playing tricks."
What a good firearm. Are you going to mess with him? Be careful of being thrown into the sea by someone named Zheng!"
Sun Kewang suddenly stopped talking. This person named Zheng is so mysterious. Who are these people under him?
Seeing that the scene was quiet, Li Dingguo said: "Father, Master Cao, the young general has something to say."
Zhang Xianzhong nodded and said, "You say."
Li Dingguo looked at everyone and said: "We can go to Sichuan! Now that Sichuan's troops are empty, we can send troops into Sichuan, open up new battlefields, occupy strategic areas, and then control the entire Sichuan!"
Li Dingguo added: "I believe that in less than a year, Sichuan will no longer be owned by the imperial court. Once we have established a firm foothold, we will go out of Sichuan and attack Shaanxi, Gansu and other places. Now the officers and soldiers of Sichuan and Shaanxi have been restrained in Shaanxi by King Li Chuang.
If we don't take action and go into Sichuan to deal with us, when the court reacts, we will have become a strong force against Qin. What can the officers and soldiers do?"
After hearing what Li Dingguo said, several people were shocked. This idea was too bold, but the possibility of success was very high. No one dared to imagine what the situation would be like at that time.
Now Zhang Xianzhong has no idea of proclaiming himself emperor. He just wants to settle down and have a good time. As for recruiting troops for development, that doesn't exist. Zhang Xianzhong now just thinks of rogue bandits, including Luo Rucai and Li Zicheng.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, only Li Yan in Henan Province was different from the gangsters. He participated in the revolutionary movement with a Confucian sentiment of helping the world and hoped to change the nature of the revolutionary movement. However, Mr. Li failed and was attacked by the revolutionary leaders.
Li Zicheng was jealous and was killed for no reason.
Of course, Li Yan is currently in his hometown in Henan, carrying out the life philosophy of living alone if you are poor, and benefiting the world if you are rich, and has not yet joined the bandits.
Sun Kewang curled his lips and said: "Fourth brother, what you said is nice, but how can we get to Sichuan? There is Huguang and Nuozhou University in the middle. I heard that Huguang implemented some farming some time ago and recruited hundreds of thousands of troops. How can we get there?
?”
Zhang Xianzhong also said: "Yeah, what should I do if I encounter Shizhu soldiers in Sichuan? That woman Qin Liangyu is not easy to deal with, especially the white-pole soldiers under her. We have all experienced this..."
Li Dingguo said: "Father, after arriving in Sichuan, we can leave Qin Liangyu alone. We won't attack her stone pillars. We will just send troops to attack other chieftains. Those chieftains are very realistic!"
Li Dingguo added: "As for how to pass through Huguang, I have a plan. We can send a team of troops to attack Changsha. There are two vassals in Changsha City. Once attacked, the officers and soldiers from Huguang will definitely gather in Changsha. Then we will
You can enter Sichuan from Yongzhou and Huaihua in the south of Huguang."
"If Commander-in-Chief Father is not at ease, we can also send an army to attack Hengzhou. Hengzhou also has a wealthy King Gui. No matter which of our troops succeeds, the officers and soldiers will suffer heavy losses. Even if both groups fail, it doesn't matter. In the end,
At least we have attracted the army from Huguang, and we can safely enter Sichuan from the south of Huguang, which is weakly defended!"
Everyone listened to Li Dingguo's talk and felt that it was very reasonable. Luo Rucai said: "Brother Huang Hu, you have adopted a good adopted son. You are only eighteen years old and you have such knowledge. It is not easy!"
Zhang Xianzhong chuckled and said: "Dingguo is the most enlightened among my four adopted sons, and he is also the hardest working, which is indeed good!"
Li Dingguo nodded slightly and said calmly: "Thank you, Father Shuai and Master Cao for the compliment."
Sun Kewang on the side felt very uncomfortable after hearing this. He felt that he was being compared. At this moment, he became more and more jealous of Li Dingguo from the bottom of his heart. He was handsomer than him and had a better brain. The most important thing was that his fourth brother
Since last year, I have taken control of my father's commander's 20,000 troops...
Zhang Xianzhong said: "Then who should we send to attack Changsha Prefecture, and who should we send to attack Hengzhou Prefecture?"
Luo Ru just took a sip of spring water and looked at the clouds in the sky, as if she didn't hear anything.
Everyone knows that going to these two places to hold back the officers and soldiers is equivalent to death, so Luo Rucai naturally does not want to be this cannon fodder.
Sun Kewang looked at Zhang Xianzhong and said: "Father, the fact that the fourth brother can make this suggestion shows that he is very confident. Otherwise, let the fourth brother go."
Li Dingguo glanced at Sun Kewang calmly and said: "Father, please let me and my eldest brother go to Changsha and Hengzhou respectively. You and Master Cao will retreat first."
"This..." Sun Kewang opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Zhang Xianzhong immediately answered.
Zhang Xianzhong smiled and said: "I didn't support you for so many years in vain, so I'll do it like this! Time is running out. Dingguo, you lead people to attack Changsha Prefecture. Hopefully, you will attack Hengzhou Prefecture. You only need to delay for three days. Three days will be enough."
In the future, we will immediately go to Huaihua to meet up and enter Sichuan together!"
