subvert the late Tang Dynasty

At dawn on August [-]th, Huang Chao's army of more than [-] men marched northward. They had just marched for [-] miles, and came to report from the front. , Zi, Qi, Deng, Lai five states), Tianping Army (under the jurisdiction of Yun, Cao, Pu three states) three groups of troops went south, about [-] people.

Huang Chao discussed with the generals how to deal with it, and all the generals wanted to fight the official army.

Zhu Wen really didn't want the two sides to go to war, because he knew how many casualties would be caused by a war involving tens of thousands of people, and how many people would be stained with blood.Maybe he is not made to be a general. Just thinking about the tens of thousands of casualties makes him chill.We are all human beings, why should we kill each other?

Huang Chao glanced at Zhu Wen, saw him looking thoughtful, and said, "Should we fight or go?"

Zhu Wen said: "Although there are more than 2 enemy troops, they must have learned the lesson of being ambushed and attacked last time. This time, the soldiers and horses of the three towns went south to form horns with each other. If one side was attacked, the other two groups would definitely help. They marched Be cautious, and the distance between the soldiers and horses of the three towns is no more than three miles, so they can support each other in an instant. The enemy is well prepared, and our army should not attack by force."

Lin Yan snorted with contempt on his face, and said: "The enemy's troops from the three armies add up to less than 6000, and our army has [-]. How difficult is it to annihilate their entire army? event?"

Meng Kai and Li Hanzhi echoed each other, while Zhang Yan and other leaders were silent. They knew that what they were fighting for was not a matter of fighting or avoiding, but the status in Huang Chao's heart.

Before Zhu Wen arrived, Lin Yan and Meng Kai could be said to be Huang Chao's right and left hands.After Zhu Wen came, Huang Chao would adopt Zhu Wen's suggestion whenever there was a major issue that could not be resolved, and even took Zhu Wen as his disciple.As a result, Lin Yan and Meng Kai felt somewhat disappointed.

Meng Kai has always been Huang Chao's general, the main force of Huang Chao's rebel army has always been led by Meng Kai, and Lin Yan has always been in command of Huang Chao's imperial guards.After Zhu Wen came, he almost became Huang Chao's military adviser.Asking Lin Yan and Meng Kai to obey Zhu Wen's orders, they were ten thousand unconvinced.

Of course, Huang Chao also saw the situation of the two sides. In his heart, Zhu Wen had the talent of a commander, while Meng Kai and Lin Yan could only be generals, not commanders.But both of them are brothers from the Yan Gang who have been with him for more than ten years.

Zhu Wen had just joined the army for a month, and was kidnapped by Lin Yan. If he blindly listened to Zhu Wen's suggestion, the two of them would definitely feel chilled and resigned.

Zhu Wen said: "Although our army has more than [-] people, most of them are newly recruited. Most of them have never experienced real war. Although the army has only [-] people, they are all veterans of the battlefield." Veterans. Besides, the officers and soldiers have excellent weapons and armors. Most of our troops don’t have decent weapons and armors at all. Some people can only use wooden sticks and hoes. If you let them fight against the officers and soldiers, even if you use human sea tactics to defeat them Officers and soldiers, our losses are bound to be heavy.

"Even if more than [-] officers and soldiers are wiped out, it won't hurt the root, and if we lose more than [-] people, we will be seriously injured. I suggest that we should avoid the real and attack the weak, find the enemy's weak links, and fight a few more games Small victories can firstly capture more weapons and armor, and secondly, it can increase the confidence of newly recruited recruits and let them know that the army is not terrible. On the contrary, if we let recruits fight tough battles now, it will undoubtedly make them My confidence in defeating the officers and soldiers was frustrated..."

Meng Kai interrupted him without waiting for him to finish speaking: "Who can't talk about war on paper, the real war is not just talk, it needs to be fought with real swords and guns. I fought against Big Brother Huang and the government army in the Salt Gang You kid was still breastfeeding at that time, have you ever been on a real battlefield? If you haven’t been on a battlefield, don’t talk so much nonsense..."

"Fighting hard will only lead us to perdition. We raised our troops for the sake of the people of the world, not for the gain or loss of a moment or place, let alone for the so-called face." Zhu Wen retorted without showing weakness.

Zhu Wen glanced at Huang Chao and saw that he had no intention of objecting, so he continued: "Our retreat today is for tomorrow's victory, and our current strength is not enough to deal with Tang Ting. We can't fight them head-on, and we can't fight because of you." One person's impetuosity is a joke with the lives of tens of thousands of people."

Meng Kai laughed out loud, as if he had heard the most incredible words in the world.He smiled coldly and said, "I'm being impulsive? Brother Huang and I have gone through more than a hundred battles together, and I don't know how much blood we've shed..."

He tore off his shirt with a "chi" sound, revealing his naked upper body, the muscles were intertwined, and the scars were shocking.

Meng Kai's voice was a little hoarse, "If it wasn't for the sake of making my brothers live a better life, would I have to go through life and death again and again? I originally had a young and virtuous wife and a pair of lovely children, but you know How miserable are they? Ah!"

Tears flowed down his bronzed face, soaking his messy beard, his expression was agitated, and the momentary tenderness in his eyes was replaced by boundless hatred.

Zhu Wen looked at Meng Kai's eyes full of hatred. He seemed to have guessed the tragedy that happened to him. Perhaps in his heart, the only way to alleviate the pain in his heart was to kill the officers and soldiers.

Zhu Wen didn't say anything more, he had just come into this era not long ago, maybe he really didn't have the right to speak.He only knew from historical data that the common people had "eight sufferings" and the state had "nine destructions" at the end of the Tang Dynasty, but in Zhu Wen's mind, those were just information, and there was no personal pain.And he knows the general trend of history, he can examine this history from the perspective of big history, and he also tries to change history.

In history, millions of people responded before and after the Huangchao Uprising, and later captured Chang'an and established the Daqi regime, but in the end it still failed.

Why?The main reason is that they are just rogues, and no amount of rogues can make a big deal.Even after they captured Chang'an, many Jiedu envoys had surrendered to Huang Chao, but the Daqi government did not take corresponding countermeasures against the current situation.They also did not encourage the development of production and appease the people in the areas they controlled, nor did they uproot the royal nobles of the Tang Dynasty who fled to Bashu.

If you really want to achieve great things and overthrow Baotang, you must establish your own base area, which can be attacked and defended.Even if you fail to send troops, you can return to the base and try again.

But rogues can't do it, their purpose is blind.They went to a place and killed cruel officials and rich and unkind landlords and rich businessmen. They got the food and wealth needed by the army and distributed it to the poor people. But after they left, the court might send even more cruel people to be the parents there... …

Zhu Wen just wanted Huang Chao to preserve his strength first, and then establish his own base. Only in this way can he truly overthrow Baotang.

But can history really be changed?Zhu Wen has no idea, since he can come here, it proves that history has deviated from the original track, but who knows that Zhu Wen in history did not reach the pinnacle of power because of the time travel of a later generation?

After all, Zhu Wen himself in history is a legend. He became the main general of Zhu Wen's Daqi regime in just five years from a penniless poor guy.After taking refuge in the Tang Dynasty, he gradually established his own territory in the places of the Four Wars in the Central Plains. Even Yelu Abaoji of Khitan in the north and Li Keyong of the Shatuo tribe were suppressed by him throughout his life.

If it weren't for his son's disappointment, Hou Liang would have the ability to unify the whole of China.

But history is history after all, if history does not exist, can he, a person from the 21st century, change the history of this era?There is only one step at a time.
