Ming Dynasty man

Chapter 148 Governance
Under the guidance of Shen Ying, Li Jing, Yuan Keli and others, Hutou has become the leader of the new generation of Hongshanling.

Hutou is now the captain of Li Jing's personal guard, and most of the [-] personal guards under him are the children of the bandits on the mountain and the children Li Jing adopted back then.

If anyone in Hongshanling is the most loyal to Li Jing, it must be the two hundred personal guards.

"Tiger head, it is said that all the leaders on the mountain came to discuss matters." Li Jing said.

"Yes!" Hutou took the order and turned to go out, ordering his subordinates to pass the order separately.

After a while, Shen Zheng, Gao Qi, Zhang Ao, Chen Dahu, Liu Erleng, Zhou Huhu, Zhuzi, Zhou Daqing and others came to the conference hall.

"See the leader!" Several people clasped their fists after entering the door.

The title of leader was changed by Li Jing's order, and the title of "big master" is too gangster-like.Although calling the leader didn't take off much gangster air, it was much more pleasing to the ear than calling the head of the family.

"Father-in-law, brothers, please sit down! Hutou, come and listen too!" Li Jing said.

"Thank you, leader!" Everyone clasped their fists together.

Li Jing waved his hand and said, "There are only a few of us here, how can there be so much courtesy?"

"Hehe, leader, although I am your father-in-law, rules are rules, and etiquette cannot be discarded. If it is at home, I, a father-in-law, naturally wouldn't tell you so many etiquette." Shen Zheng laughed.

"Hey, if you call me that at home, Ying'er promises to ignore me for three days." Li Jing laughed.

"The love between your husband and wife makes me happier than anything else." Shen Zheng smiled.

Li Jing smiled, cleaned up his face and said: "I recruited you today to tell everyone about our next move. Let me first talk about the situation of the cottage. After five years of dedicated development, the strength of Hongshanling has greatly increased. Baili is our sphere of influence. Now only Qi County, Lin County, and Hui County are left around Hongshanling. We have no involvement. As for why we have no involvement, I have said it before, and it is still the same sentence now, It’s just that it’s not yet the time for us to fight against the imperial court.”

Seeing that Chen Dahu and the others seemed to be about to speak, Li Jing waved his hands and said, "I know some of you may not understand why the refugees in Shaanxi and Shanxi are making such a fuss, while we are much more powerful than them but always making small noises. I'm not going to explain this issue too much to you, you just need to do it. But Hongshanling has grown to the limit now, and there is no room for further development, so what should we do next? Tiger head, hang up the map!"

"Yes!" Hutou picked up the map from Li Jing's desk and hung it on the wall.

Li Jing took out a short stick, pointed at the map, drew a circle and said: "This is our position, Hui County is to the southwest, Qi County is to the south, and Lin County is to the east. Our power has reached its limit on these three sides. If you want to continue to develop without confronting the imperial court, the only way is to enter Shanxi. As for how to enter Shanxi, that is the task I will give you next!"

Seeing that everyone was listening intently and saying nothing, Li Jingting nodded, and after pointing a few positions on the map with a wooden stick, he said: "This is the position occupied by Wang Ziyong, Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others. In the past, we analyzed that Wang Ziyong and others will most likely follow Xiangning, Bishui, and Zezhou all the way to Lin County in the next step.

Just now I received the latest news that Gao Yingxiang's troops have occupied Bishui. Just like our guess, I guess their next target is Zezhou, then Lingchuan, and finally Lin County.

Once Lin County was conquered, Hong Chengchou was worried that the rebel army would enter the hinterland of Henan and would inevitably divide the troops. As long as the officers and soldiers were divided, the rebel army would surely be able to break through the encirclement and suppression by the officers and soldiers relying on the advantage of their numbers.In the end, it is not impossible to return to Shaanxi, or stay in Shanxi, or even go south to cross the river.

If Wang Ziyong has a strategic vision, he must enter the land of western Henan. At that time, Sichuan, Anhui, Hubei and other places may become their next targets.

Once the rebel army enters these areas, judging from the past deeds of the rebel army, it will definitely be devastated. I don't want to see this situation, and I will never allow them to attack Lin County from us and use our place as a battlefield. "

"What does the leader mean to let us enter Shanxi to fight against the rebel army? But most of these people are farmers, and they belong to the same road as us." Liu Er was stunned.

Li Jing shook his head and said: "No, these people are different from us. At first they rebelled just to eat, but now you see what they have done, burning, killing, looting, walking, robbing, and destroying. No production. And no matter who they see, they will rob them, and they will not let go of many people who can't eat like them! So these robbed people had to join the robbery camp, because they obviously couldn't beat the army , but the reason why more and more people are fighting.”

Li Jing went on to say: "However, most of these people come from poor backgrounds, and we can't beat them to death. As long as they follow the route we designed, we still have to give them a way out."

"Leader, please order!" Everyone said in unison.

"When we go out to fight this time, we can't lose our home. Someone must guard the house. Sir, you are too old to march, so stay at home! I will leave Zhuzi, Zhou Huhu and their troops to guard the cottage. , and leave you three thousand auxiliary soldiers. Zhuzi, Huhu, the two of you must assist Mr. to keep an eye on the gate of the cottage." Li Jing looked at the crowd, and finally fixed his eyes on Zhuzi and Zhou Huhu.

"Jimin don't worry!" Yuan Keli said with a smile.

"Don't worry, leader, my younger brother will live up to the leader's trust." Zhuzi and Zhou Huhu stood up and responded.

"Zhuzi, Tiger! Mister is getting old, I'm not at home, you must take good care of Mister, don't let Mister get tired!" Looking at Yuan Keli's aging face, Li Jing instructed.

"Yes!" The two clasped their fists together.

Li Jingjing nodded and said: "Gao Qi, you and Chen Dahu lead the headquarters and a thousand auxiliary soldiers to set off early and enter here."

Li Jing pointed to the location between Lingchuan and Zezhou on the map and said: "Pay attention to concealed marching on the road, don't be discovered by the officers and soldiers, and don't conflict with the officers and soldiers. After arriving here, keep a close eye on the movements of the rebels and the officers After the rebel army conquered Zezhou, as long as they find that the government army has cut off the rebel army's retreat, they can take the initiative to attack, but don't cause too much damage to the rebel army, and leave them with the strength to capture Lingchuan. After the rebel army captures Lingchuan, they will definitely not Dare to stay for a long time, after they withdraw from Lingchuan, you continue to follow and harass them, so that they don't have the heart to loot around."

"Yes!" Gao Qi and Chen Dahu clasped their fists together.

"Liu Er was stunned!" Li Jing shouted.

"The subordinate is here!" Liu Er stood up and replied in a daze.

"You and Hutou will follow me." Li Jing waved his hand to motion Liu Er to sit down.

"We're defending at the junction of Lingchuan, Lin County and Qi County to prevent the rebel army from jumping over the wall and entering our territory to destroy. When the Gaoqi Department drives the rebel army out of Lingchuan, we will let the officers and soldiers enter Lingchuan to clean up. Endgame." Li Jing said to the two.

"Isn't there no battle to fight?" Hutou said a little dissatisfied.

"There will be plenty of opportunities to fight in the future, but there are not many opportunities to clean up a mess after the war. I want you to not only learn how to fight, but also learn how to govern the place!" Li Jing said with a glare on the tiger's head.

"I'm not in the mood to learn that, dad, I want to change positions with Uncle Big Tiger, I'll go to war and let him learn how to govern the country from you," Hutou said.

"You bastard, you are my captain. If you go to war, who will protect me?" Li Jing said angrily.

"Father, what are you kidding? You still need my protection? You can almost protect me!" Hutou scratched his head.

Almost all the people on Hongshanling had trained with Li Jing, but the first group of people who had seen Li Jing make a move were the only ones who had seen Li Jing make a move.

When Li Jing trains everyone, he sets an example. He said that if you stand for two hours, you will never lose a second of standing. Among all the training items, standing and lying down are the most tormenting, but Li Jing can do it while standing or standing still. In the process of lying down, he did not move, not even blinking his eyes.

For this point, the bandits on the mountain admire Li Jingna to the extreme, but many people want to know how good Li Jing is.

Of course, these people didn't have the guts to go to Li Jing for a test, so they could only inquire about it through others.

After inquiring and inquiring, I found out where Liu Erlian was. Hearing that the gangsters wanted to ask Li Jing about his skills, Liu Erlen was stunned for a long time before telling everyone that when Li Jingchu first went to Jinniuling, he beat himself with only one move. Can't find North.

Hearing that Liu Erlen, one of the two fiercest men on the mountain, couldn't block a single move, the bandits were horrified.

Little did they know that Li Jing singled out Liu Erleng, Chen Dahu and other five people back then, but Liu Erleng and others lost so badly in that battle, Liu Erleng felt ashamed and didn't have the nerve to speak out.

However, there were also people who were dissatisfied, thinking that Liu Erleng was supporting Li Jing, and that Li Jing was not as powerful as Liu Erleng said, and Hutou was among those who were dissatisfied.

At that time, Hutou had few opponents on the mountain, even Zhou Hutou and Liu Erleng could hardly take advantage of him.

A newborn calf with a tiger head, one day he saw Li Jing in a good mood, and because of Li Jing's favor, he proposed to compete with his godfather.

Li Jing didn't refuse, and immediately agreed to Hutou's request.

Hearing that Hutou was going to compete with Li Jing, Hongshanling immediately became a commotion, and thousands of people surrounded the training ground tightly.

It's a pity that this competition is really not exciting, there is no punching and kicking at all.Hutou was about to throw a feint punch, but Li Jing's fist was like lightning. He grabbed Hutou's fist and put it in his arms. Can't get up.

It took a long time for the tiger to stand up, and when he got up, he screamed dissatisfied. He wanted to compete with Li Jing again, and Li Jing agreed with a smile.

This time Hutou learned how to behave, he didn't use his fists to use his legs, but this time it was easier, Li Jing blocked Hutou's legs with his backhand, and then knocked Hutou down with a sweep of his legs.

So far, all the bandits on the mountain admired Li Jing even more, but many people wondered why he didn't teach everyone that Li Jing was so powerful.
