Tang Qi Tan

Chapter 247
Although it took Jiang Tian less than half a day to deal with the problem of the little round face and the crisis inside the platform.But it only solved the superficial worries and turmoil; the next aftermath and finishing work still needs to be done by Xiaoyuanlian himself.Therefore, under her painful decision.

In the next few days, the inside and outside of the Central Plains capital continued to be bloodied again, and ransacking of homes became a common practice; and more than a dozen places near the Central Plains Capital, the camps, cities, and strongholds where the foreign troops were stationed, all had varying degrees of violence. Riots and mutinies.But in the end they were all resolutely and resolutely suppressed.

In one of the most troubled places, almost thousands of feudal soldiers were assembled, claiming to enter Xingtai for revenge.Then, with the sudden falling fire meteors, they fell one after another on the spot among the most noisy crowd; turning them into coke.So there is no more.

And after everyone was beheaded, no matter how high or low, the hundreds of heads hanging on the top of the city also reminded people in a very short period of time, about the "scarlet banner" that was once erected under the prison mansion. The prestigious name.Immediately, there was some confusion inside and outside the stage, and the atmosphere was suppressed.

Therefore, when the time came to the tenth day.After the bloody suppression, the remaining prestige and momentum, and the awe of the gods who did not come out; coupled with the public promise of granting Tiantu and Lungong to confer military status after the war, the remaining more than 1000 foreign vassal troops have also completed the initial stage. Integrate and reedit.

Therefore, on an auspicious day with fine weather, the little round face who is now in charge of the office, accompanied by Jiang Tian, ​​took the stage to swear an oath; The athletes selected in the army, a total of [-] troops, set off southward.

Of course, behind this mighty march is actually the potentially huge crisis facing the current stage.It was during the few months when the princess returned and managed behind the scenes, in the name of the palace, he made a lot of construction, generously rewarded him for promotion inside and outside, and continued to reward and grace the troops.

He spent almost all his savings in a very short period of time, and wasted money or drank poison to quench his thirst. He completely wiped out the foundation of the original healthy operation of Xingtai; , feudal family, and even the debts of the Great Chamber of Commerce.

And as the heir to the official title, Little Round Face naturally had to take over these debts.Although these debts add up to astronomical figures, they are not in a hurry to repay them at once.And some of the creditors themselves have been eliminated from the physical level; the rest dare not press for it.

But there is no way to solve and improve the huge financial shortfall that is imminent.Because the head of the palace brought the burden of supporting the army, plus the resettlement investment of refugees and southern fugitives that exceeded the original expected scale; the current money and grain reserves of the handing platform are only enough to maintain the operation of two or three months.

That is to say, in the absence of any supplementary source of large income, before the next autumn income treasury, the Xingtai rule will fall into severe famine and turmoil, and even the already-on-track system of farming for the people/creating a military training system , It will also cause wavering and even give up all previous efforts.

And the northern princes and vassals who have always been the backing and foundation of the platform are not sesame seeds that can be squeezed more and more oily.The series of measures taken by Xingtai before have already expropriated and squeezed their manpower and material resources; if they continue to force them, they will not gain much, and it will become the source of new civil strife.

Therefore, when confronted with Little Round Face's request for advice afterwards, Jiang Tian could only give two choices, inside and outside, based on historical experience.Either continue to expand the liquidation and purge internally before the self-destruction, and eliminate dissidents in order to tide over the difficulties together; concentrate all ready-made resources and let it go, and transfer the conflict to the outside world.

Therefore, after thinking about it all night, she finally chose the latter, which can be regarded as passing the disguised test of Jiang Tian's multiple-choice question.As a reward for passing this test, Jiang Tian will use the limited time of existence and the number of abilities to help her open the situation as much as possible.

As the saying goes, "cars rattling, horses rustling, pedestrians with bows and arrows at their waists.".When the [-] troops from the Central Plains capital moved southward in three routes, not only Shangzhou, which was the first to bear the brunt, was in panic; even the southern states still under the occupation of the Fusang coalition forces were greatly shaken.

Therefore, when the small round face of the Chinese army arrived at the frontier town of Shahuo Town, where the small round face was located, in addition to some of the garrison troops including the local He Taiping, there were also a group of local rebels and township leaders who came to serve .Of course, most of them are defeated soldiers who are better than nothing.

However, the little round face that has been gradually cultivated does not despise or belittle these disabled people of humble origin.Instead, they summoned and consulted the Chinese army one by one.Either to comfort them, or to comfort them, or to encourage and praise them, or to speak solemnly and sternly, to show them majesty and authority.

In a very short period of time, they gathered the hearts and minds of the top and bottom, and reorganized these ruined people; they also eliminated the old and weak from them and resettled them nearby, and selected thousands of barely usable strong ones, and then allocated them to some of the armored weapons. The first army, with Ha Taiping as the deputy commander, stationed in Sangju to maintain the local situation.

Then, a certain mage among the remnants of the Maitreya sect suddenly stood up and announced in public that he had received the enlightenment of the dream of a god and a man; the son of Haidong who is now leading his troops to the south is the future Lord of Bliss and the servant of Maitreya Buddha One of the Bodhisattvas, the earthly incarnation of Moonlight Boy, calls on believers to worship him.

Immediately afterwards, several leaders of the local lingering red trousers party, as well as the leaders of the people in the middle of the mountain, also came to Xingtai to ask for surrender and submission.At the same time, it also acted as a guide and eyeliner for the stronghold of the Fusang Army to continue to attack southward; therefore, the counties of Guancheng, Yongtong, Kaining, and Songshan all went down together.

In a short period of time, as the various forces in Sangju were originally intertwined, many armed forces belonging to the Fusang Army camp were destroyed or voluntarily retreated under the offensive of the Xingtaiqian Army. For a while, most of Sangju showed The momentum of recovery.However, this is only the beginning.

Because, after gathering various forces, the size of the Xingtai army suddenly grew to [-] people; among them, the old and the weak accounted for most of them.Even with the seizures from various places and the food stored in Shahuo Town, it can only support more than one month's military supplies.It can be said to be further strained.

Therefore, on the one hand, Xingtai, in the name of dividing troops to garrison and opening up reclamation, scattered them to Xiongzhou and Yizhou where there was still some food that could be collected, and it was too much to eat on the spot; Among them, [-] strong men went south non-stop to attack Quanzhou where Wang Ji was located.

Of course, no matter for her, the court, or the rebellious stage, this is a huge gamble where there is no retreat, death or life.If it succeeds in opening up the situation, it will be fine, it will naturally relieve the contradictions and pressures, and overcome the immediate crisis; but if it fails, it will also be a huge backlash.

Even with Jiang Tian's current ability, he can only try to save her life on the battlefield where the army is defeated.Therefore, during the days and nights of going south, she was also burdened with tremendous pressure and worries, but she had to work hard to maintain her confidence and determination in front of many subordinates and soldiers.

Therefore, the little round face also seems to have completely disregarded it, or it is no longer taboo; whenever there is a chance in private, she stays in Jiang Tian's place on the grounds of depression and confusion, or the possibility of relapse of old diseases due to physical weakness. In the invisible carriage; try to find comfort and encouragement, and then reappear in front of others full of vitality.

It went on like this until Hong Dashou's former army made a breakthrough in a surprise attack, and the Fusang Army's Lianzhai in Bagong Mountain entered Lingao County in Liangzhou.Among them, a scouting cavalry team under the banner of the official office approached Changchunzhuang, which was only [-] miles away from the Wangjing;

Thousands of dead people were trampled on each other in the marketplace in a day of panic; many terrified ministers, noble surnames, and family families began to disguise and flee outside the city.And King Deming of Fusang, who initiated the expedition across the sea, also ordered all states to encircle and fight in the name of the General's Mansion of the Western Expedition.

However, Hong Dashou, who crossed the Bagong Mountain with great momentum, was just a false attack with a false attack.The real main force of the Haidong Army, under the reconnaissance and guidance of Jiang Tian himself, went all out and turned to the southwest with light clothes, and invaded the neighboring Kangzhou almost overnight.

However, compared to Liangzhou, where there is a lot of wind and noise, all trees and trees are full of soldiers, and heavy troops are gathering to prepare for battle; as one of the three southern coastal states that fell quickly after the war started, several Fusang clans in Kangzhou have divided their spheres of influence, but they are still scattered around. The remnants of the Red Trousers one after another;
Therefore, in the blink of an eye, including Yamashiro, Sagara, Tachibana, Doi, and Ito, the five feudal lords/daimyos/vassals successively broke through the vacant garrisoned county and city by cooperating with the inside and outside or fighting without a fight.Under the defeat of the army, he fled into Jin Haijing with a large number of vassals.

And under this situation of triumphant advances, as the Dinghaishenzhen and the finale of the whole army, Jiang Tian didn't even have the chance to take the initiative.It only provides early warning within the corresponding range, and detects some places that may ambush or launch a counterattack.It's just opening part of the fog on the map in disguise.

Therefore, when the largest and strongest city in Kangzhou and the largest water and land hub on the southern coast, the towering city of Jinhaijing, one of the five small capitals, together with dozens of densely packed Fusang clan flags on the top of the city, appeared When in front of Xiaoyuanlian.She finally invited Jiang Tian out.

Because, although the main formation that rushed to the south with light clothes has gained a lot after successive battles and victories; but the rations carried by the army are less than ten days left; let alone the siege equipment and various war tools craftsmen.Therefore, at present, it is basically supported by some kind of fanaticism and worship.

This time, Jiang Tian didn't refuse, but instead told Xiaoyuanlian that since he wanted to do it, he should make it big, leaving an unforgettable and shocking result.Therefore, he then spent a whole day personally going to the surrounding areas to carefully survey the geographical environment of mountains and rivers within a radius of dozens of miles.

Then that night, the Fusang defenders in Jinhaijing, who were waiting in full battle, were constantly disturbed by suspicious soldiers who kept appearing under the city all night, beating gongs, drums and shouting.
