214 Luck

Why did Gao Yingxiang take the 36th Camp from northern Zhili to Yunyang?

Didn’t he listened to Li Zicheng and said that the emperor was far away from Yunyang Mountain, and that it was a place where refugees in Shaanxi and Shanxi fled, which was conducive to the development of their subordinates.

There is something else that Yunyang used to be Bashu. After Yunyang grew and grew, he could take over Bashu in one fell swoop and gain the foundation for the world.

As a result, before they arrived in Yunyang, the pioneer Zhang Xianzhong was inexplicably blocked by Miyang. Then, under the instigation of Zhang Xianzhong, he inexplicably fought with King Pingdong. Then, under the instigation of Li Zicheng, he inexplicably fought with others for a day.

After his spirit woke up, he realized that Dabiyang and he had no connection with him in Yunyang to develop their power or even to take over Bashu!

After all, there is more than one way to Yunyang. If you can't get through Biyang, just take a little bit of it. Why bother with others here?

After thinking about it, he decided not to listen to Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng's fooling each other, and immediately took a detour and arrived in Yunyang as soon as possible.

This incident proves that Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng are not that magical, and they also make mistakes.

Zhang Xianzhong likes to be chaotic, and whoever provokes him will kill anyone.

Li Zicheng likes yin people, and whoever blocks his way will die of yin.

When it comes to abilities, they may be a little stronger than the Purple Gold Liang King or the Chuang Wang Gao Yingxiang, but they are not much stronger.

The reason why they can persevere until the end is mainly due to luck.

To put it bluntly, they are lucky. They are better than King Wang Jiayin of Fugu, King Zijinliang of Zigong, King Gao Yingxiang of Chuang, and other god Yikui of Fei Tian, ​​so they persevered until the end.

However, they were only destined to be the heroes in troubled times, and their luck was not strong enough to be emperors. Therefore, they all died inexplicably shortly after the founding of the country and becoming emperor.

Of course, these are all later stories, so I will not be able to explain them for the time being.

Speaking of luck, Gao Yingxiang has a little bit of luck, at least his luck has not yet come to an end.

Therefore, he took the main force of the 36th Battalion to detour Biyang and rubbed the border between Nanyang and Xiangyang to Yunyang. He never encountered any inexplicable obstacles along the way. In less than a month, he had arrived near Fang County outside Daba Mountain.

Of course, his luck has not come to an end, but it does not mean that all the soldiers of the 36th Battalion have not come to an end. Many injured soldiers have been thrown away by him because they can't walk. By the time he arrived near Fang County, the number of more than 150,000 people had already decreased to more than 120,000.

However, as it still goes, this loss is nothing to him. Nowadays, as long as people can fill their stomachs, not to mention 30,000 people, it is not a problem to recruit 300,000 people.

After entering Fang County, you can indeed encounter refugees who fled from Shaanxi and Shanxi everywhere.

Although these people were resettled by previous Yunyang politicians, the court gave them some life-saving rations, allowing them to open up land and farm on their own, and then basically left them alone.

If it is a normal year, it is okay for them to grow some food rations and live barely, but it will be abnormal now.

The natural disasters of the Little Glacier River are getting worse and worse. The drought areas extend south year by year. Yunyang's territory has gradually become drought and rainy, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to plant food. Although they will not starve to death, they are often so hungry that their chests are placed on their backs, which is extremely uncomfortable.

As soon as the 36th Battalion arrived, it was an old routine. He led the rich gentry and the rich family to rob them, and then pretended to be able to share some food for the hungry people, and then half-forced and half-tempted people to join the gang.

Most of the refugees who fled were afraid of hunger. Now they had the opportunity to have enough food, and how many people could withstand the temptation? Most of them were half-spoken and confused and followed the 36th Battalion to become thieves.

A few days later, Gao Yingxiang's men expanded to more than 150,000, and the lost men were quickly filled.

At this time, he was not polite and directly surrounded Fangxian County.

By the way, they entered Fang County with such a huge momentum, so they must be unable to escape the imperial court's intentions. Why didn't they care about Jiang Yunyi, the governor of Yunyang?

Jiang Yunyi wanted to take care of it, but he had no soldiers under him. In order to save money for the court, he raised five hundred elite troops in the garrison. What's the use of it!

He could only desperately ask the court for help and ask the court to send troops to rescue him.

Fortunately, he was lucky. At this time, Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of the five provinces, just quelled the Anshe Rebellion, and more than 10,000 Huguang soldiers who were seconded were also retreated.

After a joint meeting with the Ministry of War, the generals of the Ministry of War simply asked him to temporarily move to Xiangyang to prepare for war, and prepared for the 36th Battalion of Rebels with various reinforcements.

Speaking of which, the rebels have all reached Yunyang, why did the Ministry of War order Yunyang to run to Xiangyang to reorganize the army and prepare for war?

There is no way, Yunyang has also suffered a disaster now, and it is impossible to raise enough food and grass. Xiangyang is at least in Huguang, so it is easier to raise food and grass. The Ministry of War does not want to cause trouble. It transfers Huguang troops to Yunyang too early, and then spends vain to transport food and grass from Huguang to Yunyang!

As soon as Fuzhi of Yunyang left, Gao Yingxiang felt like he was in a state of no one. Soon he took Yunxi, Shangjin, Baokang and other places, and his men quickly expanded to more than 200,000.

At this time, Gao Yingxiang's ambition came up again. He directly rushed westward and rushed straight to Kuizhou, trying to take down Kuizhou and march into the hinterland of Bashu.

The court was shocked when he heard the news and urgently ordered Shizhu chief Sima Qiancheng to lead his army to aid.

Ma Qiancheng was helpless. He had just rushed back to Shizhu from Shuixi, and the Imperial Guards and Qi's army were now stationed in Shuixi and Bozhou. All he could mobilize was the 10,000 white-rod soldiers stationed in Chongqing.

Fortunately, An Bangyan and She Chongming were already killed at this moment, and there was no danger in Chongqing. After asking for Zhu Qizhu's advice, he summoned five thousand young Tujia people to Chongqing to change defenses, and then personally led 10,000 white-rod soldiers to Kuizhou.

Sometimes people's luck is really important. Not to mention the situation of the war in Kuizhou, it was time for Yunyang to manage Jiang Yunyi's side. The main force of the rebels went to attack Sichuan, and the imperial reinforcements were about to arrive. As long as he joined the imperial reinforcements, he could recover Fang County, Yunxi, Shangjin, Baokang and other places in one fell swoop.

Although this little military achievements did not make him brilliant, it was enough to save his official position by defeating his merits.

Unexpectedly, Xu Jinglin, the deputy envoy of military preparation under his command, made him a huge mistake.

It turned out that Chen Dajin, the eunuch of the governor of Zuo Liangyu's army, was greedy for pleasure. When the supervisor went to support Yunyang, he actually brought a large group of maids and slaves. Xu Jinglin, who was responsible for guarding the border of Huguang, saw him from afar and thought that the thief was looting women. This guy actually ordered without hesitation to order people to bombard Chen Dajin and his party with earth cannons!

This angered the eunuch Chen Dajin, the military supervisor, immediately ordered someone to catch Xu Jinglin and submit a report to the court, suing Jiang Yunyi.

Jiang Yunyi was inexplicably dismissed from office and investigated, and replaced by the Northern Zhili Censor Lu Xiangsheng, who had made many military achievements.

King Lu is actually coming!
