The back door of my house can last until the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 37 Go to the county towns around Xi'an Mansion

Sun Chuanting looked at Luo Shangwen and said, "Let's go to Xinfuping County and other prefectures and counties along the way. The city gates are closed and no one is allowed to enter or leave at will.

To the south of Fuping County is Xi'an Prefecture. Although horse thieves are not as courageous as trespassers, there is nothing wrong with being careful.Order the garrison of Xi'an Mansion to prohibit anyone from entering and leaving Xi'an Mansion at will, so as to prevent horse thieves from taking advantage of the loopholes.

You lead [-] fine cavalry and hang behind the bandits, don't let them find out, don't rush to attack, pay close attention to their movements, I will lead the main force to rest for a while, and then set off. "

"Obey!" Luo Shangwen cupped his hands towards Sun Chuanting and rode away.

Looking back at Luo Shangwen who left, Sun Chuanting walked forward again.

Liang Hewei, magistrate of Chengcheng County, walked cautiously beside Sun Chuanting. He didn't have much contact with this immediate boss, but he also knew his reputation.

Sun Chuanting just glanced at the county magistrate who was following him. From the beginning to the end, he walked all the way to the Chengcheng county government office without saying a word.

The soldiers and horses behind them were all in strict order.

The team was brought into the city and stationed around the county government office. Sun Chuanting sat in the back hall of the county government office, looked at Liang Hewei standing in front of him, and said, "You have made great achievements in defending the city. It's not bad that you can hold on to the county seat under the siege of horse thieves." !"

Sun Chuanting's voice was calm, but his tone was not good, even a bit harsh.

Liang Hewei naturally heard this, bowed his body slightly, and said in a tight tone: "If there is no Shangguan's elite soldiers, the horse thief will not retreat easily, it is all thanks to the Shangguan!"

"I'm not going to tell you whose credit it is. I'm asking you, are you promising the strong men in the city? After the city is defended, I will reward them with silver? Is there such a thing?" Sun Chuanting frowned, and his tone gradually sank. .

Liang Hewei was a little panicked. It was true what he said, but it was a last resort. Otherwise, not many people were willing to go up the city wall.

My immediate boss is now well-known in this area of ​​Shaanxi, known as "Sun Yan Wang". He is not only cruel to thieves, but even more cruel to his own people. What he said now made Liang Hewei lose his position for a while.

"It's true, it's true"

Liang Hewei faltered, not knowing how to explain.

After hesitating for a long time, he said a solution that was not a solution, "How about, why don't you drag it slowly first? If you drag it, they will forget it?"

"Snapped!"

Sun Chuanting slapped the table and reprimanded: "Confused, foolish opinion, if you deceive them today, you will deceive them tomorrow, then what will be the prestige of the imperial court?

If you bully them today, if horse thieves besiege the city again in the future, how will you deal with it?Don't mention this remark in the future, it's ridiculous! "

Liang Hewei was taken aback, his body trembled, and his face was full of panic.

"The strong men are rewarded for their meritorious service in defending the city. I raise soldiers, and the imperial court does not have a single cent of the military salary. It is all because I cleared up the army. I don't have much money and food in my hand. If other states and counties follow suit, I will not be able to train. Are you training?

This case cannot be opened, and the money cannot be paid by the official.Chengcheng County can also be regarded as a town with a prosperous literary style, and there are many gentry and landlords, and these money come from them.

Report to me the full list of large landlords in Chengcheng County, and deal with it in detail after the war is over.The official commanded the troops to rest for one night, and tomorrow they will send troops to suppress the horse thieves. "Sun Chuanting knocked on the table and said slowly.

"My lord, what about the people left behind by the horse thief? These people are still outside the city. The horse thief, a beast, has swept away all the food. Now there are so many more mouths, the county town can't handle it!"

The county magistrate said suddenly.

Sun Chuanting frowned again, and his face became ugly.

This is the most feared thing in the campaign against thieves. The activities of thieves often engulf a large number of people.

When fleeing for their lives, these people will be abandoned, causing difficulties for the pursuers.

In this chaotic late Ming Dynasty where disasters continued and food was scarce everywhere, these common people were heavy burdens one after another.

If the government and army take over these refugees, how will they resettle them?The food for the refugees has long been swept away by the thieves. After taking over these refugees, they must be allowed to eat, right?

One radish and one pit, there is only so much food. If these refugees eat, what will the army eat?How can the army ensure its combat effectiveness?
If not, what should the refugees do?Let them fend for themselves?

If only it was that simple, if you don't accept refugees, these refugees are desperate, they will only follow the thieves and continue to rebel.

If the refugees cannot be fully settled, every time the thieves go, they will roll up bigger waves.

The imperial court's official army went on the offensive, the military discipline was lax, it was not uncommon to kill the good and pretend to be meritorious, and it was not uncommon to rob the people of money and food, which further corrupted the situation.

This is also one of the reasons why the Liu thieves could not be suppressed cleanly in the late Ming Dynasty.

The thieves are like locusts, sweeping away all the people's food, and the court can't get the food for relief, or it will be embezzled by the local officials, and it won't reach the people.

The common people couldn't survive, so they could only be forced to be coerced by thieves and embark on the road of rebellion.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were a large number of thieves, but not many sincerely rebelled, and most of them were forced to helpless people.

This is a very real and cruel problem.

Sometimes, it's not that the imperial government and the army don't want to attack, but they really don't dare to attack.Because of the invasion, the thieves would throw away the refugees in their hands and throw this hot potato to the officers and soldiers.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the bandits surrendered and rebelled again. A large reason was that the imperial court could not provide money and food for relief.

Sun Chuanting was stunned by the magistrate's words and didn't know how to answer.

After a long time, Sun Chuanting said: "Set them up around the county first, and wait until I wipe out the horse thieves!"

Sun Chuanting had no choice for the time being, so he could only speak slowly.

On a dark and windy night, the horse thief fled in a hurry.

Jinzhong, a hundred thousand horse, rode a war horse and galloped in the dark night, looking behind him from time to time, with a panicked expression on his face.

Surrounding him were the old battalion troops he had accumulated over the years, about 1000 people. There were more than that. Sun Chuanting wiped out some of them before, and there were only so many left.

Among the 1000 people, there are 200 horsemen, not cavalry, but infantry who can ride horses, and their combat effectiveness cannot be compared with professional cavalry.

These 1000 people were also carrying about 2000 young and strong people. When they knew that Sun Chuanting was coming, they threw away most of the people in their hands. The strong man wrapped around.

Ma Jinzhong, a black man with a strong body, a beard and a big cake face, has a bit of evil spirit on his body.

Originally powerful, although not as good as Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, and Zhang Xianzhong, they are also bandit chieftains who have left their names in the court.

Before the imperial court mobilized a large army to suppress the traitors in Shaanxi, Ren Lu Xiang was promoted to the premier of the five provinces, together with Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting to suppress the traitors in Shaanxi, Ma Jinzhong suffered heavy losses.

At that time, among the bandit tribes in Shaanxi, Gao Yingxiang's tribe was the most powerful, and they wanted to besiege Xi'an Mansion, so the imperial court mobilized a large army to encircle and suppress.

After Gao Yingxiang was captured by Sun Chuanting, the strength of the Shaanxi thieves was greatly weakened. Just when the imperial court was about to wipe out the Shaanxi thieves in one fell swoop, they made slaves into the capital of the bandits and had to transfer Lu Xiangsheng away.

As soon as Lu Xiangsheng left, the pressure on the Shaanxi thieves dropped sharply, and the thieves from various ministries met one after another and reported to the group to keep warm, hoping to regain their strength.

After all, they still underestimated Sun Chuanting, even if they will be together, they are still not Sun Chuanting's opponents.

At that time, "Scorpion Block" Tuo Yangkun, "Zhang Miaoshou" Zhang Wenyao, "Guotianxing" Zhang Tianlin, "Hundred Hundred Thousand" Ma Jinzhong, "Great Heavenly King" Gao Jian and other troops and horse clubs joined together and became the successor of Gao Yingxiang. One of the most powerful thieves in the region.

They gathered together and jointly attacked Jingyang, Sanyuan and other counties around Xi'an Prefecture, but Sun Chuanting defeated them one by one.

Sun Chuanting's ruthlessness and strength far surpassed their imagination.

Sun Chuanting led the elite soldiers and defeated the "Scorpion Block" Tuo Yangkun and "Zhang Miaoshou" Zhang Wenyao successively, forcing them to surrender.

Later, they defeated "Guotianxing" Zhang Tianlin, "Hunting Hundred Thousand" Ma Jinzhong, and "Great Heavenly King" Gao Jian and other troops, severely injuring their main force.

This "hundred thousand" Ma Jinzhong was Sun Chuanting's defeated general before. He suffered a big loss in Sun Chuanting's hands, and Sun Chuanting sent away many of his main players at one time.

Sun Chuanting's prestige as Sun Yan Wang was deeply rooted in his heart, and he attacked Chengcheng County. When he knew that Sun Chuanting's army was coming to help, he was instantly frightened.

Originally, he didn't want to come out so early, but the recent period of time has been too suffocating, and there is not much food in his hands. If this continues, let alone rebellion, he will starve to death.

Originally, I wanted to grab one and run away, but the villages outside the city were so poor that they didn’t have much food at all. After finally coming out, they had to eat their stomachs anyway, so they wanted to coerce some people to attack and defend. Chengcheng County is not so strict.

Unexpectedly, before he succeeded, the "great god" Sun Yanwang was provoked.

I had no choice but to run away.

"Fucking bastard, this Sun Yan Wang, like a dog, has been following behind people, grandma, we Laozi finally came out, and didn't give him a way to survive, damn it!"

Ma Jinzhong rode a war horse, glanced at the moon above his head, and cursed.

There is nothing more irritating than this, and there is nothing more disgusting than meeting Sun Chuanting.

Turning sideways, looking at the few followers around him, he shouted: "Let's go to Qingyang, the Great Heavenly King Guo Tianxing and the others are in Qingyang, let's go there."

"Brother, when we go to Qingyang, shouldn't we go directly to the northwest from Chengcheng County? Looking at the situation now, why are we still going to the southwest?" A follower looked bewildered.

Qingyang is in the northwest of Chengcheng County. If you want to go to Qingyang, you should go directly to the northwest. Now you suddenly go to the southwest, which is the opposite. What's more, the southwest is Xi'an Mansion.

"You know what, Sun Yanwang personally led the troops out this time, that is to say, there are only Sun Yanwang's soldiers left behind in the Xi'an mansion.

It's not that I look down on the officers and soldiers, let me tell you, without King Sun Yan sitting in charge, do you think those garrison troops in Xi'an Prefecture dare to come out at will?

The Xi'an Mansion is the key point. Although King Chuang is gone, the defenders in the Xi'an Mansion dare not come out at will.Don't forget, Li Zicheng is still at Tongguan, this guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

We went to Chengcheng County and didn't catch anything, so let's catch some first.As the so-called wealth and wealth are sought in danger, Sun Yanwang is not in Xi'an Mansion this time, let's grab a hand around Xi'an Mansion and run away.

Hmph, Xi'an is rich, and the surrounding counties are also rich. This time, King Sun Yan is not here, so I don't take this opportunity to make a fortune. What a pity such a good opportunity! "

Ma Jinzhong yelled loudly, his eyes were full of eager light.

"Tell the cubs, it's up to this time to see if you can succeed. Take good care of those young and strong, and don't let them run around. If there are any who don't want to leave, kill them directly. Tell them, if you get the food and silver this time , they can keep half of it!"

Ma Jinzhong's voice kept ringing in the dark night.

After so many years of rebellion, he has mastered how to manipulate these new "joined" young men.

First use the "killing stick" to kill their spirit, use a few heads to frighten them, and then use the benefits to lure them.

Once they follow suit, there will be a second time if there is a first time.

Under the darkness, such a group of people ran towards Fuping County and Sanyuan County.

The sun is still the same sun, hanging in the sky.

The teaching of the hand-held rotary tiller was not very smooth, but a few talented people were selected.

These few people are much stronger than Chen De, and they can already master it. As long as they practice more, they can use it normally. After all, it is not a complicated thing.

The next time is to let them get acquainted slowly, teach them the main methods and methods, and leave the rest to them.

This kind of thing can't be rushed, and a fat man can't be eaten in one bite.

The rest is to teach them how to use fertilizers and pesticides, which is very simple and can be taught in one morning, which didn't waste Sun Jie's time.

It's almost time to get busy, Sun Jie returned to Hyundai.

In broad daylight, a golden gate appeared out of nowhere, and the golden light was not very obvious.

The golden gate behind him disappeared, and Sun Jie appeared in the courtyard.

The yard is still the same yard, there is no difference from before leaving, but the materials in the yard are much less.

The pickup truck was still parked in the yard. Sun Jie opened the gate and drove the pickup truck out.

As soon as he drove out of the village and came outside, he saw a pickup truck that was exactly the same as his own.

While wondering, the car stopped by the side of the road, and Fan Xiaopeng got out of the car.

Laughing like a flower, she took out a box of Hanako from her pocket as she walked past.

Sun Jie parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car, looked at Fan Xiaopeng who was coming, and asked, "Why are you here today?"

Fan Xiaopeng came to Sun Jie, took out a Huazi, handed it to Sun Jie, and said, "Didn't Brother Sun ask me to find someone to clean up those pigpens in the yard?

I've already found a good person. I went to the supermarket just now, but Brother Sun wasn't there, so I wanted to come over to see if he was here.Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the intersection, he saw Brother Sun's car. "

Sun Jie lit the cigarette Fan Xiaopeng handed over, pointed at the car on the side of the road, and said, "The car is back? How does it drive? How do you feel?"

"Okay, this car is very good, I am very satisfied!" Fan Xiaopeng narrowed his eyes with a smile.

"It's all right. By the way, the person has been found? When do you plan to clean up?" Sun Jie took a puff of cigarette and asked about the business.

Fan Xiaopeng said: "The person has been contacted, the truck forklift and so on have been contacted. If it is fast, I can come here today and deal with it. It is estimated that it will be cleaned up in about an hour."

"Then you can figure it out for yourself. I've already given you the key, so let's clean it up now. I'll go back to the supermarket first. Just keep an eye on it. I still have things to do!"

Sun Jie threw the cigarette butt in his hand on the ground and stamped it out, and was about to get in the car.

Suddenly thought of something, turned around and asked: "How are the things you were asked to make before? How are the bows and crossbows doing? And drones, have you bought them all?"

"About a dozen crossbows were made, and a dozen more were bought, adding up to more than 20 or nearly [-]. I bought [-] or [-] drones, all according to the standards required by Sun Ge. "Fan Xiaopeng replied.

Sun Jie nodded, and said: "How about this, after finishing the work here, bring those things to me, I'm in the supermarket, I'm useful!"
