The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 343 Public Enemy Sha Dingzhou

Chapter 343 Public Enemy Sha Dingzhou

In fact, Zhu Linmi didn't expect these chieftains to come according to her plan immediately, and there must be many people who hesitated to wait and see in the early stage.

But in the future, when they see others getting a lot of money, they will naturally shift their labor force to produce the materials needed by the court. Gradually, no one will focus on such laborious and unprofitable things as farming.

Immediately, the chieftains present, especially the young chieftains, gathered in groups to discuss, obviously very enthusiastic about the "act of court favor".

Others think that being a chieftain has the right to kill and seize life and death within his jurisdiction, and he is as majestic as the emperor of the earth.In fact, Yunnan is located in a remote area, and most of the young chieftains live in a very difficult life. Compared with the landlords in the Central Plains, they are only poorer but not richer. The monthly income of more than a thousand taels is definitely a huge temptation for them.

Seeing that there were no more objections, Zhu Lin coughed lightly, and changed the topic: "It's just that the chaos in Yunnan has not yet settled down, and the imperial court will encounter many troubles if they want to enter Yunnan to build roads, so we have to wait for Ergelong It has been decided, and these things can be displayed.”

Seeing that there are thousands of taels of income every month, but because of Sha Dingzhou's rebellion, it will be delayed for an unknown period of time!All the chieftains' eyes were red when they heard the words, blocking people's money is like killing their parents, and the rebel army entrenched in Er Gelong instantly became the public enemy of everyone.

Immediately, the chieftain cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, although I have only 400 troops, I am quite familiar with mountain climbing and combat, and I am willing to help the court put down the rebellion. However, this salary..."

Zhu Linmei immediately answered: "Whoever sends troops to quell the chaos, the money and food will be allocated by the imperial court freely, you can rest assured."

When the others heard this, their minds immediately became active.Since the imperial court pays food and salaries, why not clean up Sha Dingzhou quickly so that everyone can make a fortune together, and earn military merits along the way, and maybe even be named a general counselor or something.

Immediately, many chieftains scrambled to say: "The lower official is willing to send three hundred troops to help the court to quell the chaos."

"The final general is only a hundred miles away from Ergelong, and 800 troops will arrive within a few days..."

"The lower officials have 400 men and horses, carrying twelve large guns to support the battle..."

In just a few moments, dozens of chieftains have promised to help put down the rebellion, and they have gathered together to form a tower, and their total strength is as many as [-].

After these little chieftains stopped making a sound, the powerful chieftain stepped forward to express his opinion, "Your Highness, the Menghuazuo family will send four thousand elite soldiers to help the court suppress the rebels."

He glanced at the little chieftains around him disdainfully, and proudly said: "I don't dare to let the court bother with the matter of food and payment. The Zuo family makes preparations by themselves." Guanjue, a little money and food is not a problem.

Now that the Zuo family stood up, the Wuding Feng family and the Xinping Li family did not want to be disadvantaged, and they followed up and expressed that they would send three thousand and four thousand troops.

Zhu Linmei smiled and calculated silently in her heart. In this way, together with the Mu family who sent troops first, the army of rebels composed of chieftains from all over the country has reached more than [-].

Coupled with Long Zaitian and Yang Weizhi's troops, at least 5 troops can be mobilized to besiege Ergelong. If necessary, the Guizhou soldiers stationed in Kunming can divide another 8000 to [-] people.

At present, Sha Dingzhou has no more than [-] soldiers in his hands, so it can be said that there is no possibility of a comeback.

Moreover, Zhu Linming also possessed Li Dingguo's secret to defeat Er Gelong - cutting off water.The 5-strong army didn't even need to fight. It only took a few months before Sha Dingzhou had to go down the mountain and surrender.

Different from the enthusiastic attitude of the chieftains, in the corner of the back row at this time, a man with a square face and a green shirt hung his head and said nothing.His face was gloomy, and he was shocked in his heart. This assistant king had a trick, and he actually made the scattered chieftains share a common hatred in a few words. If this situation continues, the Lord General will be in great trouble.

He was about to turn around and go out of the barracks when he saw six or seven people walking quickly surrounded by officers and soldiers.He was very familiar with the fat man in the lead, so he was shocked immediately, "Sha Dinghai?"

Sha Dinghai walked up to Zhu Linmi with his head held high, knelt down and saluted, "I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Assistant Prince."

After Zhu Linming helped him up, Sha Dinghai pointed to the people behind him and said, "Your Highness, this is Zhang Changshou, this is Zhang Changshou, this is Long Yuanqing, the dead wood, and this is Li Lin from Bazhai..."

The chieftain next to him had heard about the fact that the imperial court made Sha Dinghai the chieftain again, so it was not surprising to see him come here, but they were all dumbfounded when they heard the names of these people he mentioned—these are all loyal The chieftains of Sha Dingzhou, Sha Dingzhou caused a rebellion, they sent troops to help from the beginning, and they unexpectedly appeared in the court's barracks at this time!
After Sha Dinghai's introduction was finished, the chieftains who came with him knelt down and said loudly: "The offender has seen His Royal Highness the Assistant Prince. He was confused before and helped the thief to go against the law. Please punish him by the court."

Zhu Linmei smiled and motioned them to get up, and said: "It's not easy for you all to abandon the dark and turn to the bright. As for the matter of punishment, the rebel army is still in turmoil. If you can take the blame and make meritorious service, this matter can be easily exposed."

Several people hurriedly said: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your generosity. In the end, I will definitely do my best to take the crime and make meritorious service."

"The lower official has withdrawn the troops from Ergelong yesterday..."

"The lower officials will definitely do their best to help the court put down the chaos..."

Zhu Linmi comforted them a few more words, let them stand in the team of chieftains who came to discuss the matter, and then gave Sha Dinghai an approving glance.

Once the few chieftain soldiers who came to defeat Cheng withdraw, Sha Dingzhou will lose more than 2000 troops.

To be honest, when he asked Sha Dinghai to instigate rebellion against these chieftains who took refuge in Sha Dingzhou, he didn't expect much in his heart, but he didn't expect him to achieve remarkable results.

In fact, it was not Sha Dingzhou himself who served these chieftains, but Wang Nongshan Sha's family.Therefore, Sha Dinghai went to persuade Sha Dinghai as the eldest son of Sha, and now that he is the nominal head of Wang Nong's family, several people were shaken immediately.

Then news came that the Mu family sent troops to defend Chuxiong, and the imperial army defeated the Shadingzhou tribe near Lin'an, and surrounded the iron tiger in Lin'an city, and they were even more panicked.

In addition, Sha Dinghai took Zhu Linmi's personal letter and told them that as long as the court would not pursue the previous matter anyway, these people should not hesitate to follow Sha Dinghai to the Longwei Army barracks to show their loyalty.

Later, the "enthusiastic chieftain" briefed these former Shadingzhou people about the imperial court's new policy of favoring Yunnan and the gathering of chieftains to attack Ergelong.

These few people were even more fortunate when they heard the words, fortunately they chose anyway at the last moment, otherwise not only would they lose their share in the benefits of the court, but they would not be able to save their lives when tens of thousands of troops arrived.

But the face of the square-faced man in the blue shirt became more and more gloomy, his eyes kept looking outside the barracks, and he said anxiously, I didn't expect that even the Zhang, Long, and Li families would betray, and they had to be arrested as soon as possible. The person who reported the news to the general government is the master.
