Vow to die at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 175 Entering Sichuan ([-])

After Qiu Tianxing walked out of the house angrily, he gradually calmed down.Indeed, as his wife said, he spent more and more time with the big cat during this time.If he is an ordinary person with no worries about food and clothing, he can indeed do so.It's just that as the leader of one side, his time is limited.The more you spend on your family, the less you will spend on your career.

In recent months, Qiu Tianxing has relaxed a lot about government and military affairs.The Military Academy basically goes every three days, and the Political Science and Law Academy even goes every five days.Even the intelligence department, which relies heavily on it, mostly listens to the reports of Lu Ke and Wu Gen, and they don't know much about the people under their command.

This is a dangerous signal, which means that the intelligence service may lose control.Even though Lu Ke and Wu Gen are loyal to him, what about their subordinates?What about subordinates' subordinates?It's hard to guarantee that no one will try to support them in vain and give them a yellow robe.

On the surface, the superior trusts all subordinates, but secretly, he should be suspicious of everything.Once you have unconditional trust in a person, then you are not far from danger.

After repenting, Qiu Tianxing was no longer annoyed by his wife, but felt guilty instead.Because of more than half a year of slack, he has indeed loosened his grip on the security team.

The Military Academy and the School of Political Science and Law will be the top priorities. The two schools will reincarnate. If you go to the Military Academy on one day, you will go to the School of Political Science and Law on two days.It is also necessary to know all the students in the two colleges, remember their appearance, name, age and place of origin, which will be of great use in the promotion of cadres in the future.

The battalion headquarters should also visit frequently, and have lunch and dinner with officers above the squad leader.Deductions are often organized to select outstanding military personnel.It is bound to firmly grasp the four battalions of the headquarters.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs is also going, so I can't leave it to my father-in-law.Participation in administrative decision-making is necessary, and job promotion must be grasped. It is necessary to understand the character and ability of each person who is promoted, transferred or demoted, and the root cause of his job change.

The Political Propaganda Department should go to investigate from time to time, and the Public Security Department should also pay close attention to it. The main responsible persons of the village committees and peasant associations in the surrounding villages should also be well informed, and people with dissenting ideas should not be allowed to mix in.

Calculated in this way, Qiu Tianxing's time is indeed very tight, even if one person breaks it into several shares, he will not be able to handle it.Moreover, we must often pay attention to the situation of the first battalion, the second battalion, and the fourth battalion.

These in fact semi-independent battalions have in turn used their powerful strength to influence the regiment headquarters, and dealing with these battalions is already an important part of Qiu Tianxing's job.

At this time, Qiu Tianxing thought of the Sixth Battalion. Ever since Ye Su led the Sixth Battalion to transfer to the regiment headquarters and resisted Shang Kexi's attack alone and was finally defeated, there has been no news from the Sixth Battalion.Qiu Tianxing was worried about the Sixth Battalion, worried about what happened to Ye Su, and hoped that Ye Su could escape the pursuit of the Tartars in the end.

When Qiu Tianxing was worried about Ye Su, Ye Su was worrying about a big event.

After losing against Shang Kexi, Ye Su and the training officer Tang Chengbin took the remnants and fled separately.In order to concentrate the troops to pursue the regiment headquarters, Shang Kexi only allocated some troops to pursue Ye Su and Tang Chengbin's remaining troops, and the main force continued to chase the regiment headquarters in the direction of escape.This gave Ye Su and Tang Chengbin a chance to escape.

Ye Su was originally from Changle, Yichang Prefecture, Hubei Province. After the defeat, Ye Su fled westward with hundreds of remnants, and finally returned to his hometown all the way.

Although Ye Su's family was destroyed, they were only his immediate family members.In Changle County, the Ye family is also a well-known big family.The Ye family passed down their poems and books, and their ancestors also had Jinshi.

After returning to his hometown, Ye Su first set up camp on Mount Huangbai in the north of Changle County.It took ten days to escape all the way, but luckily it didn't snow, otherwise most of the remnants of Ye Su's hundreds of people would freeze to death.Just like that, Ye Su's hundreds of remnants were also demoralized and depressed.After all, many of these hundreds of people have families and families. They abandoned their homes and followed the battalion commander to a place hundreds of miles away from their homes. This may mean that they will never see their loved ones again in this life. .Fortunately, Ye Su kept promising that as long as he was strong, he would lead his troops back to Suizhou, coupled with Ye Su's prestige of sharing joys and sorrows with clear rewards and punishments, this calmed down these regiments.

But Ye Su also knew that if he always stayed on the mountain, the team might be dispersed, and taking down the county would become the top priority.

Fortunately, Ye Su is from Changle. After calming down the team, he sneaked into Changle County with a few regiment members.

Originally, Ye Su wanted to gather relatives and old friends and make troubles together, but he couldn't imagine it. Several years have passed, and things have changed.The formerly large family has been continuously suppressed in the past few years, and the children of the family have already fallen apart.And many of those old friends have also moved out of Changle.

Fortunately, there are still a few business uncles still in the city.When Ye Su found a collateral clan uncle who was in the food business, the clan uncle was taken aback.After the direct lineage of the family was destroyed at the hands of the Tartars, there was no news of the nephew of the direct line. I thought he had died too, but unexpectedly, I ran into this nephew in my own home.

When relatives meet each other, there is naturally some enthusiasm, especially Ye Su's uncle thought Ye Su was dead.

At the banquet, after Ye Su expressed his intention to come, his clan uncle hesitated a little.

Yichang Prefecture, which belongs to Changle County, is located at the junction of Hubei, Sichuan, and Hunan.At the beginning of the year, there was a lot of turmoil in the south, and it seemed that Remnant Ming was about to attack, but in the end the court suppressed it.Except for Li Chuang's forces in Xingshan in the north of Yichang Prefecture, the southern part of Yichang Prefecture still belongs to the imperial court.In troubled times, the grain business is the most profitable, and it has already taken the route of the government. Ye Su's uncle really doesn't want to make trouble anymore, he just wants to earn some money honestly, and leave a good fortune for his children and grandchildren.

Ye Su knew something was wrong when he saw the hesitant look in the uncle's eyes.After all, he was a battalion commander with over [-] soldiers, so he still has this ability.Therefore, Ye Su decisively controlled the clan uncle, and then asked several clan brothers to follow his two subordinates back to the place where the sixth battalion was stationed.Nearly a hundred men and weapons were transported into Changle County through the use of vehicles transporting food by these clan brothers.

After completely controlling the family uncle who was a grain merchant, Ye Su followed the same pattern and controlled the collateral uncle and others who were in the cloth and woodware business.

In this way, it took three days for Ye Su to transfer all his subordinates to the county seat.Thanks to the fact that the general situation is now on the Tartar side, the officers and soldiers guarding the city were very sloppy in their search, and those who entered the city were all acquaintances and got quite generous rewards, so the matter was easily resolved like this.

The next step is to seize the city.

When Ye Su wiped out the Tartar troops in the city and took control of the county government and the city gate, he showed his banner.Although Changle people are not very aware of the security team, they are not ignorant of it.Some long-admired people came to seek refuge one after another, and of course more of them came to seek refuge in the name of Ye Su's Ye family's direct line.And those members of the Ye family who had already fled all over the world learned that the Ye family was prosperous again, and the children of the family actually embraced the thighs of the security team and took control of Changle County at once, so they also returned to their nests one after another.Therefore, Ye Su used his five hundred regiments as the backbone, and the old people of the tribe as the wings, and strengthened the muscles of the original tenant farmers, and re-established the new sixth battalion.

In the past few months, the Tartars also sent troops to attack Changle, but they were all small groups of troops.Because Jiang Guan in the north was anyway, and Li Taiping and Sun Zhi from Shanshan and Shandong cooperated with each other, which caused the Tartar court to transfer troops from Huguang to Shanxi.On the Wuchang side, troops must be left to guard the exit of the security regiment headquarters, and in Hunan, troops must be left to guard against the remnant forces in Guizhou, Guangxi, and Guangdong.There is really no extra troops to attack Changle, so we can only rely on Yichang Mansion's own strength.

And Ye Su united with the peasant army forces of Li Chuangyu in the north of Yichang Prefecture, and took Badong and Guizhou in one fell swoop.And divided the two counties equally with the peasant army, Badong belonged to Yesu, and Guizhou belonged to the peasant army.

Although Ye Su won two counties, he also heard about the wars in Shanshan and Shandong.Ye Su envied Li Taiping and Sun Zhi when he learned that they had started anew and created a great momentum.

Although Ye Su had never met the two of them, he was still familiar with the deeds of the two veterans of the security regiment.They were the first group of people to follow the head of the regiment, and they were also the first batch of battalion commanders to be sent out. Now they have become the largest town in the security group system.

Today, the Sixth Battalion's business has reached a bottleneck, and Yichang Mansion is divided into three parts by the Sixth Battalion, the Tartars, and the Peasant Army.The peasant army in the north is an ally. At this time, it is impossible to do things that make relatives hurt enemies.And the Tartar government is sticking to the East Lake, the prefectural city in the east, and Ye Su's strength cannot be completely taken for a while.If you join forces with the Peasant Army, the distribution of the results is not easy to calculate.Therefore, Ye Su hesitated whether to go south or west.

To the south is to advance into Hunan, and to the west is to enter Sichuan.After thinking for a long time, Ye Su still decided to enter Sichuan.
