The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 649 Xingyang Conference
When the rogues escaped from the Chariot Gap, they ushered in a godsend opportunity for the Hou Jin army to invade Daming. At the end of the seventh year of Chongzhen, the rogues developed rapidly and gathered in Henan again, with an unprecedented scale.

There are hundreds of leaders, big and small, including Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai, Liu Guoneng and others.

The total strength of the rogue bandits has reached a record of more than [-], and the number of ordinary people who were coerced cannot be counted for a while.

Jiannu happily returned to Liaodong after being plundered, leaving behind a devastated place.

The Ming army stationed in Jiancheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, none of the troops dared to pursue Jiannu.

The border has calmed down a little, and the hinterland of the Central Plains is in dire straits. The interaction between the rogues and the slaves has brought disasters to the Ming Dynasty.

In order to completely wipe out the bandits, Chongzhen did everything he could this time.Of course, there is no good way, and then tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall.

He mobilized nearly [-] troops, including the new force "Hong Jun" trained by Hong Chengchou himself, Zuo Liangyu's Changping soldiers, Cao Wenzhao's Guanning cavalry, Ma Shihu's painstakingly trained Tongguan cavalry in recent years, and so on.

All in all, except for the "God of War" department, the Ming Dynasty has basically all the strong troops worthy of a battle.

In the winter of the seventh year of Chongzhen, the imperial court gathered a large army to suppress the bandits. After a fierce pursuit, the bandits were compressed in their scope of activities. At this time, they belonged to bad wood and rolled together.

The rogues gathered in Henan reached 30, and they were powerful for a while. They joined forces to capture Sishui, Xingyang, Heyin, Xingze and other counties, and marched into Guangwu Mountain.

Even so, there were no accidents. The court was serious. Hong Chengchou led the Ministry of War and served as the governor of the five provinces.

During the Spring Festival in the eighth year of Chongzhen, they were compressed to the vicinity of Luoyang, seeing that the encirclement circle of the government and army would form again.

At the most critical moment, all the thieves will form an alliance, because the original 36 battalion leader Zi Jinliang was arrested by Zhang Fengyi and Ma Xiangling and sent to the court to be hacked to death. Now the rogues realize that they need a common leader.

The meeting place of the rogue bandits was in Xingyang, Henan Province, which was known as the "Xingyang Assembly" in history, but it cannot be verified.This is a very critical meeting that changed the fate of countless people.

Those who participated in the meeting were all well-known thieves who harmed Daming. Of course, these thieves did not fight to survive. They had ambitions, and none of them could go to the ordinary life of digging in the soil.

The number of rogue bandits known as the "Thirteen Families" and the "72 Battalion" is really uncertain.

Some big leaders, such as Gao Yingxiang, have 7 to [-] people, and some small camp leaders, such as Cui Shanhu, have only less than [-] people. Cui Shanhu is not the smallest leader, and there are many so-called leaders with only a few dozen people.

There are too many thieves at the meeting, thirteen plus 72, it is close to one hundred, even if each family and each battalion only send two **** to attend the meeting, there are more than 200.

All in all, this is a meeting of rebellion on an unprecedented scale, a meeting with a large number of people, a meeting where thieves share their looting results, a meeting to study how to make Ming Dynasty more miserable, and a meeting to discuss how to escape in the future .

Because as we all know, the imperial court has already taken the initiative from the border, and more than a dozen officers and soldiers entered Henan aggressively. If they don't react, it will be troublesome.

Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai, Liu Guoneng, Zuo Jinwang, etc. first asked for the election of a big leader. The rogues also relied on their strength to speak.

Next, let's talk about the current situation.Cao Ru, who was nicknamed "Cao Cao", spoke first,

This kid got the nickname "Cao Cao" because of his fighting ghosts and tricks, and he guessed the Ming army's arrangement pretty well.

The thief bones knew that this time the Ming army was going for real, and the attack was ferocious. I'm afraid life will be difficult in the future.

Most of the bandit leaders present agreed with this opinion.At this time, a big yellow-faced man shouted: "You cowards!" The person who spoke was Zhang Xianzhong.

Zhang Xianzhong, a native of Yan'an Prefecture, Shaanxi, was born in the 34th year of Wanli.This bastard was born to harm Daming.

He lived well in his hometown, equivalent to Song Jiang's role in Water Margin. With the salary of the court, he secretly made friends with bandits and thieves, and finally took the initiative to lead a group of people to follow Wang Jiayin to rob houses.

Why?Because this bad embryo needs to keep a low profile to do bad things behind the scenes, which is no longer enough to make him happy, but blatantly robbing houses and killing women will make him excited.

Zhang Xianzhong called on everyone not to run away. Now there are more than [-] people gathered. As long as everyone dares to fight hard, [-] officers and soldiers are nothing, and they can still fight.

Immediately there were others of the same kind, the laid-off postman Li Zicheng also jumped up and shouted, "One man is still fighting, but there are hundreds of thousands! The officers and soldiers are powerless!"

This "King of Wedding Clothes" was born specifically to destroy Da Ming. He is a Xiaoqiang who can't be killed no matter how hard he fights with Da Ming.

Li Zicheng is slightly better than Zhang Xianzhong, and he is not the most vicious towards the common people, and he can fool around. When he came back in the 11th year of Chongzhen, he changed his usual style of burning, killing and looting.

That's because a few down-and-out Ming scholars joined, and they made suggestions to make Li Zicheng have the wishful thinking of aspiring to the world, and began to manage the territory he had snatched.

It's just that Li Zicheng is not black-bellied enough because he is muddy and can't get on the wall. He hasn't won half of the country. Li Zicheng fought to the end, and Wu Sangui was this case.

Moreover, Li Zicheng may be incompetent, his wives have stolen from others, he has no heirs at all, and the feudal dynasty has no heirs, so I don't know what he is doing.

The problem facing the rogues now is that they are about to be heavily surrounded, and a large number of officers and soldiers will gather in Henan soon if they don't go to a dead end.

Go to Shaanxi?The officers and soldiers set up their nets to wait, but there are still more dangers than fortune.Go to Shanxi?The frontier soldiers who came from Xuanda came out of Shanxi, did they go to throw themselves into the trap?Where is there a way?
Yes, there is one more.Li Zicheng is worthy of being the number one rebel boy, he showed his talent for rebellion at this time, and he told everyone not to be afraid to work together to attack Fengyang Mansion in Nanzhili.

Nanzhili Fengyang Mansion is the central capital of Ming Dynasty and Zhu Yuanzhang's hometown. It is very poor. If it is captured here, the rogues will create a large number of proletarians and force them to join the rebel army.

Moreover, the wealth and food obtained by attacking areas that have not been plundered are not ordinary. With people, materials, and food, it is not a dream to multiply the number of people and horses.
