Chapter 262 Another unruly one
Ganzhou.

The Ming army has already set off by boat.

Since the Eighth Army Lu Feng came to southern Gansu, in addition to personally leading the troops to fight several big battles and defeating several large groups of bandits, among them were Liu Wu and Li Gou rebels who had rebelled earlier (Shangyou County) .

Liu Wu said that he couldn't bear it anymore and was forced to revolt, still under the banner of the Ming Dynasty. But when he really did something, his true colors were immediately revealed.

In other words, this is human nature.

Everyone has ambitions (ambition).

It's just that Liu Wu and Li Gou were unlucky. Although the Eighth Army was established later, it was still a regular army.

One operation a day, and with sufficient supplies of food, oil and water, the combat effectiveness is definitely not what a bunch of peasant soldiers can fight.

However, after the big groups of bandits, including Liu Wu, were leveled, the remaining bandits and the remnants of the rebels would be a little difficult to deal with.

Lu Feng stayed in Nangan for a month, and he never fought a big battle. He was just suppressing bandits everywhere.

The key point is that the bandits are not easy to suppress. As soon as the army arrives, they go into the mountains to hide. After the army withdraws, they run out again, which is very annoying.

There is no good way to deal with this situation. We can only rely on the military and civil affairs to work together slowly.

Even if veterans like Yang Gong come, they can only take their time.

It can only be said that Lu Feng was unlucky to find himself in such trouble.

But his luck was not too bad. After staying in Nangan for a few months, Chenzhou, Hunan actually turned against him.

When the Qing Dynasty's Chenzhou magistrate's letter requesting for help was sent to Nangan, Lu Feng could hardly believe his eyes.

But soon, he made a decision and directly led an army of [-] to Hunan by water.

This was not only sloppy, but also clearly against the rules. Not to mention Lu Feng, even Jiang Chengzhang, the current governor of Southern Jiangxi, had no objection. Jiang Chengzhang even actively raised supplies for the army.

At the same time, he also jointly presented a memorial to Nanjing with Lu Feng.

All right!Two more unruly ones.

Jiang Chengzhang, the governor of Southern Jiangxi, was a scholar who followed Emperor Zhu from Taiwan when he started his career.

And unlike other families, Jiang Chengzhang took the initiative to join him from the beginning.

Because this guy is a pure angry young man, and he insists on saying that he just fears that the world will not be in chaos all day long.

It was precisely because this guy was too angry that the Central Committee sent him to Nangan to be the governor.

It is not only to let him use his talents to manage this poor place in Nangan (no other meaning), but also to be out of sight and out of mind.

Now, the two hit it off.

Lu Feng felt that this was a God-given opportunity. If God did not take it, he would be blamed for it.

Jiang Chengzhang raised his hands in approval.

Of course, the two of them were not stupid. The main reason why they dared to do this was that Huang Dian had disobeyed a military order before, and that was how the Southern Gansu Province came to be.

Although he was severely reprimanded by the emperor with an imperial edict and deprived of his military position, he was immediately reinstated by the reward officer.

It seems that he is doing it for nothing, but he can actually make a wave of anger in front of the emperor.

It is much better to have the emperor remember you than to accomplish some great feat.

Moreover, if I continue to stay in Nangan, I will have nothing but hardship.

Sending troops to seize Chenzhou, a matter of little effort, can still make the emperor remember him.

Isn’t this a guaranteed profit?
Lu Feng sent troops from Ganzhou and took the waterway from Ganjiang River to Shangyoujiang River. In just a few days, he crossed the border between the two provinces and marched into Guiyang (Rucheng, not Guiyangzhou, just the same name).

Like the magistrate of the state, the Guiyang magistrate decisively surrendered without a fight, and large households in the county even made a special trip to offer food, grass, wine, meat, and labor to the army.

Lu Feng sent troops without authorization, and relied on Nangan to squeeze out food and grass, so he naturally would not refuse.

Lu Feng asked: "How is the current situation in Chenzhou?"

The Guiyang County Magistrate lowered his eyebrows and said: "A few days ago, the evil thief Huang Gou, under the banner of Master Wang, sent an army of [-] to attack the city. Now I don't know what the situation is like in the city."

After hearing this, Lu Feng couldn't help but sneer: "One hundred thousand? Haha, if this guy really had one hundred thousand, your Guiyang County would be gone long ago."

The Guiyang County Magistrate and all the officials and gentry in the county behind him hurriedly nodded and bowed: "Yes, what the general said is true. The yellow thief is so bold that he dares to use the king's banner to do evil in Chenzhou, which is really a way to die." ." When Lu Feng heard this, he didn't say anything, but just glanced at everyone meaningfully.

It's nothing more than putting eye drops on himself. It seems that the man called Yellow Dog really lives up to his name, and what he did is not human to make these people hate him so much.

But this has nothing to do with him. Even if the other party loves the people like a son, as long as he doesn't submit to the Ming Dynasty, he will be killed.

The world does not need another Han emperor.

Lu Feng briefly comforted the officials, and deliberately acted domineering and arrogant to reassure everyone.

Then he led his army to continue their march from Guiyang and galloped north along the Leishui River.

When passing through Chukou, there were some incidents. The Ming army's fleet ran into an unidentified southbound fleet.

"Which one of you said you wanted to meet this general by name?"

Lu Feng came out of the cabin and took a look at the tied people. Some of them looked like scholars, but they were a little embarrassed.

"Student Wei Xichun has met the general!"

The leader of the group immediately shouted.

He calls himself a student in this way, and his attitude is very low.

But Lu Feng had never read any books and just knew the words. He could only pretend to understand and raised his hand: "Ahem...forget it! Who are you? What do you do? It's best to tell the truth, otherwise... …”

Wei Xichun said: "Reporting to General, we are the rebels of Yongxing County. We were originally the vanguard of Wangshi, but we did not want to be harmed by the evil thieves and yellow dogs. Now we have fallen here. We are here to invite Wangshi's heavenly troops to enter Hunan and preside over Big picture.”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in Lu Feng was confused.

The information he got was basically a letter asking for help from the magistrate of Chenzhou, plus hearsay collected along the way. He sifted through it and made inquiries in Guiyang County.

Lu Feng, a rebel from Yongxing County, knew about this, and he also knew that the man named Huang Gou was currently attacking Zhoucheng.

Why did another one appear?
After asking carefully, Lu Feng was speechless.

Without that diamond, you wouldn't have taken the porcelain job!
A group of scholars who knew nothing about military affairs immediately imitated other people's rebellion, and the result was what they are now.

But Lu Feng couldn't curse, because he took advantage of others to muddy the waters in Chenzhou, so he came to fish in troubled waters.

Shaking his head, Lu Feng said: "Are the rest of you in Xingning (Zixing) County?"

Wei Xichun answered honestly: "Mr. Zeng, Mr. Zhang and the soldiers are all in Xingning now."

Lu Feng was a little curious: "How did you capture a county town when you were beaten with so few troops?"

Wei Xichun said without changing his expression: "Mr. Zeng led his army to Xingning County. He originally wanted to get some food, but he didn't want the Xingning County magistrate to hear that the rebels were attacking and scare him away overnight. We will capture Xingning like this." Ning County.”

"..."

Lu Feng was speechless for a while.

Wei Xichun added: "Mr. Zeng posted a notice to calm the people in the county, and ordered the soldiers not to loot and disturb the people, but only to take food from the official warehouse. This appeased the people of the county."

"We are also waiting for the peace in the county to come across the river to invite the Ming Dynasty King's heavenly troops to enter Hunan. As soon as the general's army arrives, Xingning County will immediately surrender it. I only want to kill the yellow bandit and avenge the people of Chenzhou."

Lu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, and he could tell from what he just said. The young scholar in front of him seemed to have deep resentment towards the yellow dog, and he seemed to have a blood feud.

Lu Feng nodded: "Don't worry, I, the general, will make the decision for the people of Chenzhou."

From the words of these people, we can basically judge that this man named Huang Gou must be killed. Regardless of whether he is guilty or not, in order to appease the people of Chenzhou, we can only use his head.

After asking about the situation, Lu Feng immediately ordered them to be loosened, but he did not let Wei Xichun and the others go free. Instead, they were directly placed under house arrest on the boat and took these people north along the river.

Wei Xichun didn't care, as long as he could help him get revenge, house arrest was nothing.

The army marched to Dongjiang City (this city is not that city). Lu Feng ordered the troops to be divided. Two thousand troops were divided from the army and took the few rebels to take over Xingning County.

Of course, if the strength of two thousand generals cannot be absorbed, then they will be captured directly by force.

Based solely on the information from these people, Lu Feng was able to determine the combat power of the two rebel armies, Huang Gou and Zeng Jing.

If Huang Gou hadn't claimed to have an army of [-], Lu Feng would have even wanted to take the opponent's retreat with only a thousand men.
