In the ninth year of Jinghan's reign in the Wu Dynasty, various gatherings of rebellions occurred in the south of the Yangtze River, and even the Yongle disaster that later captured Hangzhou and endangered Jiaxing, shook the entire Tiannan land. It may be an exaggeration to say that this uprising shook the foundation of the entire Wu Dynasty, but because of this uprising, it did have a series of intriguing chain reactions in some key places. This series of dominoes The fall of Wu Dynasty led to the final collapse of the entire Wu Dynasty. Whether it was the main cause or the secondary cause, whether it was accidental or inevitable, whether it was a sufficient and unnecessary condition or a necessary and insufficient condition, has become a topic that historians of later generations often study.
In fact, some people considered these things at the time, but in the game, no one considered it that far. Fang Qifo set a time to delay Tong Guan's army's northward march, and finally sought to drag down the Wu Dynasty's bottom line of tolerance, and the strategy of taking a silver lining was to see clearly the embarrassing situation between the north and south of the Wu Dynasty at this time, but what can be done in the end The degree, Fang Qifo at that time, I am afraid that it is not clear.
At least at the beginning of the rebel army's rise, it seemed that the world was swept by a turbulent force, especially after a big city like Hangzhou was captured, it really gave people a feeling that the military dynasty was already weak and dying. However, when the Wu Dynasty really faced up to this rebellion and wanted to annihilate it with all its strength before the Battle of Ping-Liao, what it felt at that time was the real frontal pressure facing the Wu Dynasty. A country that had accumulated for two hundred years really fought back. Whether Fang La or Fang Qifo can survive or not, they are just fighting with luck.
And in Bianjing, the political center where the powerful gather. Regarding the disaster of Fang La, it is not really regarded as a major crisis that may overthrow the country. Even in the eyes of Qin Siyuan, Li Gang and even Emperor Jinghan Zhou Zhe. He did not really regard Fang La's rebellion as a crisis of extinction, but he occupied Hangzhou. It has already interfered with the most prosperous area of the country, and the interests of many wealthy, gentry and dignitaries have been damaged, so Tong Guan has to be the first to rectify this problem. Of course, it took a long time later.
The biggest trouble and opportunity is naturally still in Liao. In the eyes of many people. In fact, the opportunities still outweigh the troubles. Just as he was about to march north, Tong Guan went south. The sixteen states of Yanyun were like a piece of fat in front of him, but he couldn't eat it because of a small stalk in his throat. What a worrying thing this is. At this time, everyone can't see the bad things that this piece of fat can't eat. At most, the sixteen states of Yanyun could not be recovered, and their own country would not have suffered much loss. Many people could not help thinking this way in the face of obstacles encountered at this time.
Only a small number of people vaguely felt the scalp tingling that came from it. Li Gang is naturally one of them, but even Qin Siyuan, although he has thought about the hidden dangers that may be brought about by the poor behavior this time, he did not consider it as a completely formal crisis. After all, the future is so far away. Can't see or touch.
This Northern Expedition could not be carried out due to the constraints of hands and feet. Li Gang's anxiety, Qin Siyuan's anxiety, the emperor's anxiety, and the anxieties of the officials were all mixed up. Under such circumstances, being able to fight a bloody path amid the cobwebs of interests involved and promote the progress of the Northern Expedition, Qin Siyuan and the others are really powerful, but unfortunately they did not expect that in such a complicated situation. The country itself will be powerless to this extent.
More than 100,000 troops were defeated against the more than 10,000 troops of the Shang Liao Kingdom. Wang Qi and Yang Keshi had already sensed that something was wrong, and they gathered the defeated troops again and regrouped. The Liao people are like tigers. There are a few fierce battles, and more people escape than those who stay behind. They are only small-scale battles of less than 100 people. On the contrary, they can occasionally win and pass them back to Bianjing as a good news. However, Qin Siyuan and others had their own set of intelligence systems, and the collapse of the overall situation, such a military mentality, made Qin Siyuan and others dumbfounded.
Like a boxer, he persisted in his dreams, worked hard, and overcame all odds to get into the ring. He threw his first punch with confidence, only to find that the strength of his fist was inferior to that of a five-year-old child. Anything like this is just an empty talk.
Of course, everyone knows that there is actually not that much difference between people. The victories in small battles with less than 100 people can show this, and there are still bloody people. But when the scope is expanded to the entire Northern Expedition army, once there is a problem in one place, the fear will grow like a snowball, and everyone will think, "I can't win anyway, and no matter how hard I try, everyone will die if they don't. ”, and the entire army was swept up in defeat.
What kind of atmosphere, what kind of people come out. When Qin Siyuan was trying in vain to quell the various intrigues in the Northern Expedition, he actually chose another path. At this moment, the messenger from the north and some of the people who were originally arranged are constantly contacting the "resentful army" in the territory of Liao State and commanding Guo Yaoshi, trying to make peace with him. There were people who had the idea to take refuge and come back, but the defeat of Wang Zhi and Yang Keshi temporarily extended his thinking time.
Although it was later proved that every move Qin Siyuan made was ruthless, it was a pity that the surrounding resistance was too great. Although it is theoretically required that a good chess player can take into account everything around, this kind of resistance is already very reasonable. Regardless of whether Li Gang, Qin Siyuan, or Su Lao, a famous official in the court, they have studied Confucianism for decades, but in the end they can only be stuck in it by this huge spider web based on Confucianism. Each of these pawns was moved with a forward-looking vision at the right time, but when they were in place, they were completely behind...
In addition to looking forward to Wang Zhi Yang Keshi's great victory, and looking forward to the surrender of people like Guo Yaoshi, the only thing that can be expected is the breaking of the ice in the southern war situation. That is, in the midst of such a delay, something, without anyone noticing, began to ferment in the north.
At the beginning of the war, the Jurchens actually admired the Han people quite a bit.
Although they raised troops along the way, they had already beaten the Liao Kingdom like a dog, but in the final analysis, the Jurchen clan were still villagers who had just come out of the white mountains and black waters. before this. They don't even have their own words, under the constant oppression of the Khitan. Occasionally hear some news from the south, and see various treasures from the south. To the south, this big country composed of Han people is really like the imagination of the heavenly kingdom.
Civil servants in important positions like Wanyan Xiyin were all influenced by Han culture. After all, at this time, in terms of civilization, the Wu Dynasty was still the strongest. Two years earlier, Wanyan Xiyin was based on Chinese characters and Khitan characters. Created the text of the Jurchen tribe. At the beginning of the war, their troops were insufficient, and they had to make a move of 20,000 to 800,000 against this ally in the south. In fact, it is also quite respectful. However, in the first half of the year, they started the army, but there was no movement in the south. In winter, the Northern Expedition Army of the Wu Dynasty finally had its first battle. More than 100,000 people lost to 10,000 people, and then took Down, everything really took a turn for the worse.
The Jin Kingdom fought for nearly a year, and nearly half of the Liao Kingdom's territory was under control, and there were many more people. His horizons were also broadened, but people were still dumbfounded when they saw Wu Chao's movements. Of course, the Jurchen personnel are limited. It is impossible to say that they feel that they can win the Wu Dynasty together at this time. The enemy in front of them is the Liao Kingdom. It's finally starting to sprout and brewing at this time...
The Wu Dynasty in the south may not be regarded as a kingdom of heaven...
Just a bunch of garbage.
Tong Guan went to Hangzhou in February of the Li year.
At this time, it was already the spring of the tenth year of Jinghan in the Wu Dynasty. The army officially attacked the city on the eighth day of February. On February 16th, Leng Gongzhong, one of the defenders of the North Gate, died, and was replaced by a general named Dong Fangyue. his responsibilities. Fang La's army did not know that Dong Fangyue had been placed in this position for nearly half a year by a spies organization headed by Wenren Buer and others in the city. In November, when Daoyi was in a siege state, Fang La and others were very concerned about the internal power transition. Dong Fangyue was only pushed to this "possible superior" position, and it took him a long time to hear it. With great strength and a little staff of Ning Yi in the middle, at this time, this chess piece finally played his role.
On February 17, Dong Fangyue opened the north gate of Hangzhou, and Tong Guan's forbidden army poured in like a tide. Although there have been several cases where the city wall was broken and foreign soldiers invaded, this time there was no chance of luck. Go out of the city, but at this time, the 150,000 forbidden troops led by Tong Guan have formed a state of siege. After a desperate battle, the remnants of the Yongle Dynasty were scattered from the west and the south.
Although the reason why Fang La called the emperor and established the country was because of Hangzhou, the uprising this time had originally swept a large area. After Hangzhou was besieged, the outside area would be compressed to some extent, but Shi Sheng, Lu Xing'er, Lu Shinang and others were still participating in the resistance in these places. Second, Tong Guan didn't have time to pay attention to the sidelines and rushed out of the city. Afterwards, Fang La still had some room to maneuver. But Tong Guan naturally couldn't let him go. If he wanted to go north immediately, the first thing he wanted to do was to completely defeat Fang La. When he arrived in Hangzhou, he immediately led his troops to chase him, biting him all the way.
Fang La's foundation is still in the area of Qingxi County. It is about two hundred miles from Hangzhou to Qingxi. There are tens of thousands of corpses lying on the way, and then the court sergeants from all over the place confront Fang La's remnants again.
Under such circumstances, the twenty-fourth day of the second month is the Qingming Festival. A rout team, dominated by the Ba Dao Battalion, was crossing the mountains in front of it a few hundred miles northwest of Qingxi.
When the city was broken, the Battalion Battalion that came out of the city from the south was originally a team at the rear. They had indeed completed their mission, dragging down a large number of chasing troops, allowing many remnants of the Yongle Dynasty to escape. However, when the war stopped for a while and they wanted to catch up with the large army of Shangla towards the west, it was already the direction that Tong Guan had chased and killed the most. the tail.
At this time, there were many troops chasing and killing the remnants of Yongle. When the Ba Dao Battalion smashed out of the city, it was still in a state of dragging his family with his family. At this time, rushing to Qingxi is already courting death. They circled around for a while, and turned to the northwest near Hangzhou, probably in the shape of an "8" with Fang La's escape route. Of course, it would be best if they could circle back to Qingxi from the back. Of course, most people consider the former after all.
"When they return to Qingxi, they will be dead..."
Riding on the horse, Ning Yi looked at the sunset in the distance and sighed. The words were addressed to Lu Hong on a horse next to him.
It rains during the Qingming Festival. The spring rain that had been falling since yesterday stopped this afternoon. Spring rain is like that, although not much. But it was cold and sticky, and it had been drenched for a long time. The coldness seemed to sink into the bone marrow. At this time, although the sun was out, the feet were still muddy, and the team next to them walked forward with a deep foot and a shallow foot.
Escape again.
Su Tan'er and the others did not follow the fleeing team. She was eight months pregnant, and during the time she was in the city, at least in the eyes of everyone in the Ba Dao Camp. Ning Yi put a lot of effort into finding a relationship to make arrangements to send off his wife and family so that they could stay in the city. In the chaotic situation at that time, Ning Yi might not be able to escape, but in the end, he came all the way with Ba Dao Camp. In a sense, this should be a move that makes Liu Xigua, Chen Fan and others feel quite warm.
Only Lu Hongti, still dressed as a thirty-year-old woman, followed.
"Then what can they do?" For Lu Hongti, there was no problem with the long escape. She glanced at Ning Yi and said.
"In addition to continuing to be a pirate, what else can you do..." Ning Yi smiled, "Fang La is finished."
In the turmoil that followed Fang La's rebellion, Ba Dao Battalion paid a huge price. When the army started, there were about 3,000 or even 4,000 elite soldiers available in the Ba Dao Battalion. Many of them were orphans such as disciples and disciples. In addition, there were over 10,000 family members. After the battle of Jiaxing, the rest could be soldiers. There were only more than 1,500 people, and by the time they reached the back of the Decheng Palace, there were only more than 800 people who could fight. The relatives who need to be protected along the way are more than 2,000 people, plus the remaining relatives and remnants of the Yongle Dynasty, this escape team is about 5,000 people.
Of course, compared to other uprising forces annihilated, this is already a very good state. When Hangzhou was founded, not all the family members who were in Ba Dao Zhuang actually came. Since the city of Hangzhou was broken, it should have already started to move according to the previous plan. Fortunately, in a short period of time, many places around It is still the area controlled by the remnants of Fang La. With most of the firepower being attracted by Fang La, Ba Dao Camp still has the last chance to move its capital and opportunity.
Chen Fan rode a horse and ran over from behind. With him was "Yu Dao" Qian Luoning: "Liheng." The two greeted Ning Yi, who smiled and said, "What happened next? "
"Nothing happened. It looks like they didn't dare to fight, so they just followed. Let's go over and tell the owner of the house."
Even though he was in a state of defeat, Chen Fan still maintained a rather optimistic and cheerful state. In the team not far ahead, Liu Xigua was visiting an injured person on a stretcher. She was wearing a veil and wearing a strong suit. He is in a dusty state, but his big eyes are extremely energetic, and sometimes he will laugh, but he is mostly dominated by a cool, arrogant and powerful aura. Seeing everyone looking over there, she tilted her head and waved her hand. As the owner of Ba Dao Zhuang, this young girl who would be crazy about going crazy when she was a fake marriage was always showing a mature attitude to the people around her. Cheer up and let people see it and create a feeling of "I'm here". Although Ning Yi also knew that she was also injured and very tired after this journey.
Ning Yi, Chen Fan and others rode over there.
After the city of Hangzhou was broken, although the main force of Tong Guan's army went to Qingxi County, many of the rest of the army scattered around, chasing and killing Fang La's remnants. However, due to the bravery and ferocity of the Battalion Battalion, apart from the initial battle under the city, there were not many troops who dared to fight against the Battalion Battalion. It seemed that he didn't dare to do anything, he just hung up with fear, Chen Fan and Qian Luoning, the youngest in "Killing for Life", had just been inquiring about the situation.
"About 1,200 people, not the forbidden army from Tokyo, they should know our name, so they may not dare to take action, but they are afraid of closing the encirclement, should we make one move first, drive them away, and then leave quickly?"
"You don't have to do it, don't kill the red eyes. The court has not many troops in this area. This time when everyone is taking credit, they definitely don't want to be left behind, but they can't take their lives. It is estimated that a little After a while, we left. If the fight was so severe that the surrounding imperial army had to chase, we would be really in trouble."
The one who spoke was a counselor named Lu Jiang. He was originally one of the orthodox counselors under Fang La's command, but when the city was broken, he was involved in the Battalion Battalion, and he still had some skills. After listening to him, Xigua also nodded, got on his horse, and stood side by side with Ning Yi: "Master Lu is right. Don't do it for now, just go over two mountains. It's Lin Kunwu's site. Although Lin Kunwu only has a few Hundreds of people, but they are still with us now. The army behind should not dare to follow."
Since there is no need to fight, everyone jokes and jokes, and it also shows that the eight hundred and twelve behind them are completely massacred, and they will die if they dare to come. Qian Luoning said: "Actually, our Ba Dao Camp is quite famous. I'm afraid that the imperial court will call us to hunt and kill us. Villa lord, I think we should go as fast as possible these days."
"Following so many people. It's too soon."
"Let them come..." Chen Fan also laughed, "Or change the name to... Dabiao League, and put up a new banner. They won't recognize us, haha." He was obviously a spoof. , then leaned over and whispered to Ning Yi, "The Watermelon League can also..."
Liu Xigua's eyes had begun to glow dangerously, Ning Yi smiled and quickly rounded up the field: "Actually, it's called Eight Hundred Tigers, I think it's good."
When he said this, Qian Luoning thought for a while and said, "This name is not bad."
Liu Xigua glanced at Ning Yi angrily: "No change."
Although she sounded cold to Ning Yi's tone, her attitude was obviously different.
Since they got married for more than three months, there has been a lot of progress in the relationship between the two, of course, it is the kind of progress between lovers. Not really. In addition to the embarrassing accident that happened on the first night of marriage, Liu Xigua was quite knowledgeable in other aspects. During Su Tan'er's time at Ba Dao Camp, she would often visit and talk, but it was not family attitude.
In many things, Liu Xigua is a very open-minded woman after all, and occasionally makes some embarrassing things in small things. Usually, he talked with Ning Yi about various issues of managing the Battalion Battalion, and sometimes let Su Taner intervene. In the evening, in the small courtyard room where Ning Yi lived, arguing endlessly, Ning Yi could be regarded as revisiting the process of corporate structure or restructuring. When the city was broken, Ning Yi was involved in half of the internal operations of the Battalion Battalion, and the relationship between the two became more and more like comrades fighting for a common ideal. Of course, was there any extra ambiguity during this period? , then only the two of them understood.
When Cheng Po wanted to arrange Su Tan'er first, Su Tan'er also mentioned to Ning Yi: "That girl Liu is actually a very lonely girl, you... try not to hurt her... "
However, looking at the state of Ning Yi and Liu Xigua at this time, General Lu's eyes seemed a little hesitant. He was actually in his early thirties, and he was handsome. Watermelon also somewhat agrees with his words. After everyone was laughing for a while, he put on a smile on his face and said, "I heard that Ning Gongzi used to be a famous talent. I wonder if there are any new works recently?"
"Now?" Ning Yi frowned, and the others frowned slightly. Right now, the road is winding and fleeing, and everyone's happiness is no more than having fun in hardships. How can we talk about these romances. In fact, General Lu didn't know enough about Ning Yi. He probably wanted to make everyone realize that Ning Yi was actually a useless scholar. Ning Yi sighed: "If this is the current situation, there is actually a sentence."
Liu Xigua turned to look at him, his eyes curious: "What, say it."
"Xiongguan Mandao is really like iron, but now I'm walking more and more from the beginning. From the beginning, the mountains are like the sea... The setting sun is like blood."
Ning Yi just happened to think of this sentence, and he didn't add much emotion when he read it, but the momentum of this sentence was almost uncontrollable in front of people who could understand it. Among the crowd, it might be that General Lu, who couldn't help but muttered to both sides that "Xiongguan Mandao is really like iron". Next to him, a master from the Ba Dao Camp walked over and said, "Xiongguan's long road is like iron, but now he is stepping over from the beginning. Ning's words are really, really..."
A crowd of people spread across the mountains, and the setting sun was shining from there. The master said a few "really", but he couldn't find an adjective. He was obviously a fugitive. Majestic blood red.
Chen Fan and the others were already clamoring to write down the words, then General Lu said, "There's only one paragraph, what else?" Ning Yi just shook his head and ignored him.
Everyone was unmoved by General Lu's small thoughts. After a while, everyone rode their horses apart. When Ning Yi ran up the hill, Chen Fan sat on the grass here and looked at the crowd below. It was windy and cold. Only the setting sun is directly ahead, casting a magnificent and warm illusion. Ning Yi got off the horse, and the grass was covered with water stains. Chen Fan grabbed a green grass and stood up, looking ahead.
"Xiongguan Mandao... Step forward from the beginning... Liheng. When we started the army, it was the same sun, I thought that was the beginning. But do we still have to start from the beginning..." He clenched his fists, stood there, raised his head and lowered his head, He closed his eyes, "Liheng, why did we defeat..."
A murmured whisper, in a blink of an eye. disappeared in the wind.
Ning Yi did not speak.
He remembered the day when the city was broken, Chen Fan went out to kill the enemy, and when he saw him again, it was in a blaze of fire. Carrying a Guan Dao, he rode a horse as he slowly came over like a demon. The people and horses were covered in blood. The Guan Dao slashed the edge of the mouth, and he had already lost his strength. When he came over, his bright red face was only Those eyes were still vivid and clear, Ning Yi didn't know if he had cried.
"Liheng, why did we defeat..."
When he finished saying this, he fell off the war horse. fainted.
In the past few days, through that cheerful vision, all Ning Yi could see was this powerful yet weak figure like a demon.
He didn't speak, reached out and patted Chen Fan's shoulder... As the sun went down, the moon gradually rose, and the fleeing team set up camp, the fire lit up, and the tents were set up one by one.
a moment. Lu Jiang stopped Liu Xigua, who was patrolling everywhere, and said something. After a while, the two entered the tent next to him. Lu Jiang took out a small notebook and told the girl Chen that he was great. Suddenly, the girl stretched out her hand and directly clamped the opponent's neck. Lu Jiang struggled desperately, but it was useless.
In the tent, Lu Jiang fell to the ground and breathed desperately: "What I said...is true...what I said is true..."
He said again and again, handed over the small book, and Liu Xigua took it and read a few pages.
General Lu's voice was trembling, and he got up with difficulty: "What happened on the day when the city broke... Dong Fangyue's promotion process. I have been investigating, I have been investigating... I asked the people in the team... Some people know... Bao Daoyi died. In the past, when his position was transferred, Ning Liheng participated once. It was because of the relationship between your Ba Dao Camp's timber business and Leng Gong's side, which worked very well... Later, because of Bao Daoyi's death, further promotion Dong Fangyue has reached the position where he can replace Leng Gong, I have checked, if it wasn't for Ning Liheng killing Bao Daoyi..."
With a slap, Liu Xigua slapped it on the table next to him, and the entire small book became a fan: "Climbing randomly, Li Heng killed Bao Daoyi was an accident. The spies in the city are not taking advantage of our power to do things, You have to rely on the relationship after turning eighteen corners, you know that Ning Liheng is my husband! A villain like you has three knives and six holes in my Ba Dao Camp, there is no negotiation!"
With a swipe, she pulled out a steel knife with her backhand and grabbed the other side's shirt. Lu Jiang shouted, "He sent his wife away, he sent his wife away, why did he send him away at this time? His wife..."
"Because his wife is eight months pregnant!"
After Liu Xigua finished speaking, he was about to slash with a knife, and Lu Jiang hurriedly took out something from his arms: "I have evidence, I have solid evidence, I have solid evidence..."
The blade slowly stopped on his neck, and Lu Jiang probably didn't expect the woman in front of him to be so ruthless and so straightforward, his teeth were chattering, and the inside of his crotch was warm: "I have solid evidence... I dare to take it out if you believe it a little bit. …”
On the silhouette in the tent, Lu Jiang stumbled back and fell to the ground. The woman with a thin body stood there, looking down at the things, silently, silently for a long time, and then slowly. Slowly put down the knife... Ning Yi's tent was set up a little to the west of the camp today. The girl named Xigua walked over with a somewhat blank expression. When she reached out to lift the curtain, she paused slightly. , but then opened the curtain and went in.
The tent wasn't too big, but it wasn't too small. Ning Yi used a few boards to pinch a table inside, and a few benches were probably taken from someone else's car. During the few days of escape, Watermelon would come over almost every night to discuss future plans with Ning Yi, and sometimes go out to discuss while patrolling the camp, but today Ning Yi was writing something in a notebook, and he lowered his head and wrote quite attentively. When Watermelon came in, he just said, "Sit down."
Watermelon sat down there and saw how he was writing. After about a quarter of an hour, Ning Yi raised his head slightly and turned his wrist a few times to relax: "There is one more point to write, you wait first. Wait, or I'll find you later?"
Liu Xigua looked at him: "I'll wait."
Ning Yi nodded, continued to write, and after a while, the watermelon hesitated, and finally took out a small bag from his arms, looked at a small stove next to him, stood up, and flipped through Ning Yi's package, Pull out a small pot.
"I-I have some tea leaves, make you a cup of tea."
Her voice trembled slightly, and slowly, she said so... I didn't expect this chapter to be 7,800 words, and it's already two chapters from last night.
I am very kind, I will send him out when I code it out!
So you can confidently shout: two more! Ask for a monthly pass!
I hope to get 1,000 votes as soon as possible, please everyone, please everyone! Thank you ^_^()! ~!
