And in the southwest of Tanzhou, Jiangxi Province, in front of a grassy cottage in the mountain adjacent to Zhiyichun County, Yuanzhou Prefecture, it was already surrounded by people holding chains, iron rulers, sticks and Putou spears, and then burst out. The shout came.

"Grab this guy..."

And as the master of the monk Xuzhong, he was also ignorantly looking at the male person who suddenly broke into the door, surrounded himself and shackled him out; he was originally together with his friends and Gu Xichan to avoid the mountains and forests. For more than ten years, he has only returned to settle down near his hometown in recent years; how could he suddenly suffer from this unwarranted disaster

Then I saw an official in Tsing Yi walked up to him and spread out a yellow paper list, saying righteously:

"I have a sacred letter to chase after the rebels who have committed the troubled country, the demon monk outside the mountain, and the relevant people of the Xu family Yuanxuan...

"This, this, what's the matter..."

But the monk Xuzhong became more and more unclear, so he got up.

"The noble official also asks for the clear lesson. I am a person from outside the country who has been practicing for many years and I am a little known. How dare I be involved with the important criminals of the court..."

"I dare to argue with clever words and expressions. I really don't repent of it..."

The official was particularly impatient and kicked him, and he fell to the ground and immediately stained his white monk's robe with a lot of mud. .

"This demon monk and you are both from the empty gate, and they are all teachers of the imaginary generation. How dare you say that it has nothing to do with you... Moreover, you suddenly came back from wandering the year before, and it was when the grass thief ravaged Jinghu. It's not that the concealment echoes what the local desire thinks..."

"If it weren't for the newcomer county honourable to observe Qiuhao and discover you, a latent man with wolf ambition, as long as the local situation is rotten like a story outside the mountain..."

Having said that, he slapped a few more fiercely, and then he slapped his face into the emptiness of being caught up to beg for mercy and excuse, and then slapped loudly and slapped his face with bruises and slurred speech.

"Come here, put this bald thief in my mouth, don't let his demon words confuse the crowd more..."

"It's also reasonable for me to wait for this occasion, and actually hide the origins and connections of a court criminal in the governance..."

After finishing all these tasks, the Tsing Yi officer looked at the left and right with a smile on his face and could not hide his expression.

"At the moment, our wealthy future is tied to this thief. The sons and sons should be optimistic about it... but we have to verify it personally over the Ming Palace."

"All of them must be fully alert. This fellow is a well-known poet and monk in the world... These days I am afraid that many ignorant and foolish people have been deceived in the local area. You must not make the slightest mistake on the way to Jieyun County. ."

"If anyone dares to stop or ask for a position, then it must be a comrade sent by the anti-thief to delay the time, and they will have to kill all of them."

"promise.."

Amidst the roar of high morale, he was tied down and held in the emptiness in the prison wagon by Wuhuada, but he couldn't even pray to the Buddha without tears.

. . . . . . .

And on the north bank of the Yangtze River, under the banner of the Rebels recruiting soldiers,

"Listen well, after entering our camp gate, we are the members of our rebel army. Don't miss it if you are half-hearted..."

Sula, a former military officer who is already a normal army, and wearing a half-brown nailed leather armor and a plain white ear cap, is also very energetic and eloquent and gathered in a group of locals. It is obvious that he has only eaten for a few days. Fanyou exclaimed loudly in front of a newcomer who had food.

"Now Liu Hanhong, the governor of Suzhou, the imperial court in the north, has asked the general's mansion to surrender and changed his banner to the horizontal wave army. Now he is still a good person..."

"So, this time I'm afraid it's a good deal in Luzhou... Just put your thoughts in your stomach..."

"I came here to attack more than dozens of prefectures and counties. I haven't seen a city that the rebels can't attack..."

"So you are blessed to follow me this time. After you follow me down town tomorrow, you will inevitably eat meat to keep you full..."

"It must be known that I am the lucky Sura, so many swords and arrows have not hurt me anymore..."

When he said here, he couldn't help but slumped his mouth with a little regret, but it's a pity that the brother Zhao Ziri, who has always taken care of him, has a different future and fortunes; it is precisely because he has given up credit and gains several times after he recovered. I was able to be promoted to a team leader of this newly expanded Rebel Army.

Nowadays, as I went out for sentry food and pawning (courting the population and recruiting soldiers), they parted ways, and now I think of it a bit reluctant. It is said that he has gone to Daxinzhou with another man and horse.

"Look, Jiang Shang is the navy of our rebels."

Although she made her think so in her heart, she did not stop; even to strengthen her persuasiveness, Sura still gestured to some boat shadows on the river with her hands.

"As long as land and water advance together, what kind of government can resist this river..."

However, shortly after his speech, there were some low-pitched exclamations and screams among the new pawns; however, sharp-eyed people saw that these rebel naval ships approaching seemed to be in a different situation. How good

Most of the sails have become tattered, and the hulls are full of nailed arrows or smokey traces, and even obvious damaged parts appear on the bow and gang; some even sail while driving. Suddenly overturned, or in the middle of a diving figure like dumplings, slowly sinking in the river.

As a result, some ships simply slanted away from the middle of the river, and ran aground towards the shore, but then they failed to reach the shore, and they broke apart and left only a piece of water exposed. Human heads and fragments.

"It's not just a local defeat on the water. You can regroup after a while..."

In order to remedy it, Sura quickly grabbed her voice.

"Our rebels have never been disadvantaged on land. You see, this has already arrived without reinforcements..."

Suddenly he gestured to the distance with his hands like a treasure. There was dust and smoke coming from the sky along the road along the river. It was obvious that a large army of people was rushing. However, after turning around the foot of the mountain, even Sura could see that something was wrong.

These "reinforcements" were simply rushed and disgraced, and they did not play the flags to show their identity and belonging, and even the long and short weapons were dragged down in the dust without hesitation; as if there was something behind them. Something urgent is chasing me, those between Hao Hao's **** Song Oval, regardless of other things, went straight through the edge of their small camp, without turning their heads in a group. The team continued to fly away in a hurry.

This is obviously a situation where a war is unfavorable and retreats. These Suras are also a little bit unreasonable and want to say something to recover; suddenly he saw a familiar figure passing by and shouted in no surprise:

"Brother Zhao, I am here..."

Then I saw that the other party seemed to be frightened, and suddenly speeded up his pace and dashed out of the road, and then fell into a composting pond where farmers from nearby villages flocked to compost, and no one got up again. He couldn't help exclaiming,

"Quickly, go and save my Brother Zhao..."

At this time, Zhao Ziri, who was trapped in the filth, looked at the blue sky and white sun with a little bit of grief and indignation, and secretly lamented his shortcomings in his heart. Why did he meet this name again after his defeat? Heartlessness makes people speechless.

At this time, a loud clamor suddenly sounded in the distance.

"Zhang Wudi, Zhang is dying to catch up again..."

Suddenly, these scattered teams that were hurriedly rushing like a sudden explosion of their nests ran wildly; and the thousands of comrades around who tried to help Zhao Ziri out could not help but look big. Become a bird and beast and leave him.

Zhao Ziri could only be like a straight salted fish again, and continued to lie in the pond to fend for himself; to be honest, he would rather stay here forever than face the living treasure anymore.

You must know that before this, as one of the pioneers of the General's Mansion to attack Xinzhou and Xuanzhou, tens of thousands of people have been defeated by the Huainan elite soldiers who suddenly crossed the river and attacked in an array.

As the so-called shadow of the famous tree of man, he saw with his own eyes those rebel generals, captains, and lords who were originally proud and confident. Seeing the other party's banner, they were shocked and panicked at each other. Instead of getting into chaos without fighting, there are even those who fled without taking care of them on the spot.

Then Zhao Ziri, who was born outside the ridge, learned that he had never been able to please him in the hands of the rebels on the way to most of the world. Then, under the great decline of my momentum, a few encounters couldn't resist and turned into a complete defeat.

However, this is only the beginning of their doom and nightmare. There is no stronghold to stay, and it is difficult to reorganize the army to counterattack, and there is no way to supplement and rest, but they have to continue to suffer casualties... Throughout the ages, the retreat has turned into a great escape. There are so many things about the big rout, and it's obviously not bad this time.

In the middle of the journey, the rebel generals and veterans did not try to rebel against the ground. At the beginning, they tried to gather into a dense array to block under the call of some brave and bloody chiefs, but they were confronted. The cavalry came to Huainan with a large-scale impact to smash and disperse;

Then in the evening, they could not bury the pot and cook; they could only run away hungry in the twilight, and finally at night, they could not find a safe and warm place to rest! But only in the distance, the chasing soldiers startled one after another, scurrying blindly in the black light.

Tired, hungry, cold, and still dead... So, even if the official army only launched a large-scale raid when it first took over, only one night later, the remnants of the rebel army completely disappeared. No one dared to play the flag, because it would attract the chase and killing of officers and soldiers.

Gradually, first of all, some soldiers from the mountains, relying on their experience in field activities, threw down the flags in groups of gunfire, and with their bows and daggers, they went into the mountains and forests on both sides of the road without hesitation;

There are also some soldiers and officers who are obviously born in the countryside. They feel that returning to their hometown and hiding is the only hope. They also took off their uniforms and leather caps, and then went straight to leave the main force from various branches of the road. Transit and go

So what was left in the end was instead a soldier like Zhao Ziri who was far away from home and had nowhere to go. He could only flee continuously along the road until he encountered a rebel garrison that could block the pursuit and contain them.

"XX is the most typical careerist and speculator in the peasant army. On the one hand, he actively separated from the rebel army, but on the other hand, under the pretense of support, he sent troops to follow the main force of the rebel army to plunder land and population. .. Obviously, it was premeditated and wanted to steal Huang Chao as a representative of the fruits of the peasant war."
