This late Ming Dynasty is outrageous

Chapter 43 40: The Kind Chen Jialuo

"There are few people outside this pass, and there are not many Tartars left behind. Master, we are confident that we will be invincible, but it may not be easy to pull together a team."

Overgrown with weeds.

Tigers and leopards come out of the forest.

This fertile land outside the customs is just wasted.

Cao Kun did not respond to Chen Jialuo's words, but squinted his eyes and looked around.As far as the eye can see, there is only smoke rising in the distance.

His decision to raise troops from outside the pass was not because he really wanted to imitate the Tartars' method of making a fortune, but because Cao Kun thought this place was the most suitable.

Although this is the hometown of the Tartars, in terms of loyalty, it is the most loyal existence of the Qing Dynasty.But because of this, after the Tartars moved inward, the number of people staying outside the pass was sparse. In addition, the older generation died or went to enjoy the blessings in the pass.

Cao Kun chose this place because if the Tatars wanted to send troops to support them, they would face the situation of Ming Dynasty at that time. The battle line was stretched and supplies were inconvenient.

In particular, Cao Kun chose the cavalry before the heavy snow, and he was caught off guard if he could kill the Tartars.When Qianlong reacted, it was extremely difficult to send support.

At that time, the heavy snow will make it difficult for the army to move.In addition, the Eight Banners have been blessed for many years, and the Han Eight Banners were abolished countless times by Qianlong. It is impossible for the Qing Dynasty to form a fighting force in a short time.

If you choose to raise troops in the pass, before Qianlong takes action, those Han officials with vested interests will grind Cao Kun to death with crowd tactics.

Don't say that your own people don't beat your own family, Cao Kun is to give them land or something.In this world, only interests are eternal. Although ordinary people are oppressed, they also value interests the most.

If you're making a fuss, of course it's with you, but if you can't make a fuss, who would want to mess with you.Maybe he wants to kill you to make contributions and become a superior slave.

Everyone didn't say a word, although they were all members of the Red Flower Society.But now that Cao Kun is the leader of the army, maybe after he really pulls up a force, there will be some activities of fighting for power and profit.

But in the early days of entrepreneurship, they would never do this.

Huo Qingtong was wearing armor and holding a red-tasseled long spear. Seeing that Cao Kun was silent, she smiled and said, "I can understand what the military lord means. The battle line is too long, it is inconvenient to be in a hurry, and the support cannot arrive in time to take advantage of the opportunity to strengthen ourselves."

Cao Kun smiled and said: "Yes, this is called time lag. After the heavy snow covered, Qianlong would not be able to support. If forced to support, I am afraid that there will be countless deaths and injuries, and countless resources will be wasted. He must increase taxes. When the time comes, the people will waste money and the people will complain. And People are already living in poverty, if taxes are increased, they will definitely not be able to survive, and everyone knows what will happen to those who cannot survive.”

Chen Jialuo's eyes were heavy: "So, the common people were killed and injured countless times, aren't we the culprit?"

Cao Kun sneered: "I just forced them to do this. If there is something to eat, they will not resist."

"Brother Chen, don't blame me for being cruel. Without the support of the people, we would not be able to overthrow the Tartars."

"And brother Chen, be prepared, I'm afraid the next battle will be so cruel that you can't accept it."

Chen Jialuo looked at Cao Kun suspiciously.

Cao Kun licked his lips: "We will follow what the Tartars do. Brother Chen, I hope you don't stop me and set the rules today."

"Once the city is broken, or Zhuangzi is broken, all the grown-up men who are descendants of the Eight Banners will be killed, as will all the loyal slaves in coats."

"Leave only women and slaves who are willing to rebel with us to become our tribe. As for the old Tartars, drive them into the pass."

Cao Kun noticed that Chen Jialuo's face changed wildly, and he didn't explain anything.

Killing too many people is not good after all.

Chen Jialuo is a scholar after all, if he can't accept this, then he should leave as soon as possible.

That's right, Cao Kun just killed the donkey.Although it is still early to do these things, once Chen Jialuo comes out to stop it, once it is really done, there will definitely be conflicts.

Rather, it is not too early to explain clearly.

Cao Kun believed that Chen Jialuo couldn't accept it, but other members of the Red Flower Society would definitely accept it.After all, there are probably not many people in the world who regard themselves as scholars like Chen Jialuo.

And those who can become famous, whether they are decent or evil, which one is not murderous.

However, to Cao Kun's surprise, after Chen Jialuo's face changed for a moment, he suddenly sighed and said, "Chen really can't accept it, but since Brother Cao, you want to raise an army, Chen can't just stand by. Wait until Chen really can't stand it." At that time, Chen will explain in advance and leave on his own."

"That's the best, Brother Chen. Let's go there when we see that there is no cooking smoke in front of us. Today is the first battle I'm waiting for. Brothers, apart from women, don't need to leave anyone alive."

The horses were galloping, and 13 people were wearing armor and holding long guns, thinking about running away from the smoke.

When it comes to riding and fighting, Cao Kun is not proficient.He chose a long gun because of this.After all, the long spear has enough distance, even if you are not proficient in riding and fighting, it is more convenient than wielding a big knife.

Moreover, everyone is from the martial arts world, and the battle on horseback is not as good as that of the Han generals in the army, but once they become proficient in battle, the benefits of the martial arts people's flexibility will be reflected.

All warriors are honed, they are combat skills that have been honed through death after death in wars, large and small.

The reason why Cao Kun started from Mandarin's Zhuangzi was because he wanted to hone his men.Because killing by martial arts is different from fighting in war after all.

The weather is cold, and the heavy snow will not know when it will fall.

The ground was stiff, and the sound of galloping horses rumbled.

A row of skinny slaves crawled out of the low thatched huts with their pigtails in their hands, their thin clothes patched everywhere, and many of them had no shoes.

They watched in horror the thirteen figures approaching like the wind, and every time the huge hooves of the war horse fell, they were terrified.

Is the Mandarin going to massacre again?

The servants knelt and trembled by the side of the road in horror, not daring to raise their heads.

But suddenly they felt the fast horse whizzing past in front of them, and the wind it brought was icy cold, making them shiver.

Boldly turned his head to look, but saw 13 people going straight to the gate of the manor.

A wretched servant in a coat was waving abuse at a group of Han slaves with a whip, but at this moment he looked up in horror.

puff.

The spear was like a chest, and it was fixed directly on the wall.

Cao Kun's arm trembled on horseback, and his spear buzzed.Immediately pulled out, the blood arrow spurted.

"kill!"

With a roar, he rushed through the open door.

Luo Bing, who was beside him, approached and followed worriedly, fearing that Cao Kun would be injured.

Chen Jialuo took a deep breath, his expression could not be seen under the iron mask, he glanced at the chest of the wrapped servant, and then rushed in.

The slaves next to him were all dazed, standing stupidly, not knowing how to run away, and not knowing how to help stop them.

It wasn't until Master Manchu's screams were heard in the courtyard that they all shivered, feeling that it was a bit colder this day.
