Chapter 170: Welcome
As for Liu Ruguo, he knew some words, was proficient in martial arts, and was full of passion.
In the end, there are legal restrictions in China. In addition, since Mr. Longqing ascended the throne, Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng took turns to rule with the same national policy, there has been no large-scale rebellion in China since the second year of Longqing, so many years have passed.
The good situation made him want to join the army for a time, and he even talked with the recruiting officers sent to the south and south Zhili in Beiyang. Unfortunately, he had a high opinion of himself and had not received formal military skills and was disdainful to be a soldier. In the end, he did not follow the recruiting officer.
The military law is strict. Although the Beiyang military pay is high, it is not higher than his military commission. Moreover, he doesn't care about money because he knows that he doesn't have the ability to make money.
All the money earned by luck will eventually be lost by ability.
The good situation continued until Zhang Juzheng retired due to a hidden illness, and the hearts of the people in the country became slightly floating, but the examination method was still implemented, and the grassroots officials were still overwhelmed by the three accounts.
The civil administration is still clear and clear. General Chen Mu's Eastern Army won consecutive battles. His Majesty Yijun, who often showed his face in the telegram, also brought hope to the people. It has been a long time since the Ming Dynasty heard of the rebellion that could shock the capital.
But it is different when Ireland. What is the most vicious word used to describe a person in the Ming Dynasty? It is lawlessness.
Coincidentally, for Liu Ruguo, here he is lawless and lawless.
In essence, his actions are a rat. His level of education is between listening to Water Margin and understanding the Three Kingdoms. In the Ming Dynasty, he used martial arts to injure people, but in the end there is a law to suppress them, and some days to suppress them. In that case, he would not take his own life if he exerted his anger.
Now he also wants to extricate his anger. He doesn't like the Irish people's life in hard work, but there is no law or heaven, so it's different.
The pig and sheep flour he scattered out and opened the warehouse. The six young and strong men in the village who had been incited by him for hundreds of years had been stolen. They immediately took the food and placed them at home, following the leader of Liu Ruguo.
Then he inquired about the nearest village and took the rider borrowed from the White Horse Department to reuse the same trick. He ran around six farms in one day, intercepted and chased three grain collection teams.
With the peasant soldiers from the first village, it is easy to recruit soldiers in the next few villages. The situation is similar when the villages are approaching. Recently, Governor Grey has indeed collected taxes too much, and even a bandit group who rushed to hear the news that night joined.
By the next day, his rebel squad had expanded to more than 60 people, and there was no need for Bai Laohu to lend him any more, nor did Liu Ruguo need to raise his flag and shout at the top of his voice. When they rushed into the village, they found that the tax officer Liu Ruguo shouted: "Who dares to kill the tax officer!"
The righteous army shouted together: "I dare!"
Things are done.
After all, there are only two major things in a person, one is survival, and the other is ideal.
Liu Ruguo did not understand these principles, but he did both things. One shared the grain and the whole family was not hungry, and the other expelled the British and washed away the shame for hundreds of years.
With the initial team, he followed, like a snowball, and became bigger and bigger. Zhu Xiaoen was still advancing carefully. He had already divided his troops into four groups and wandered around the village and opened warehouses and released grain.
As long as people in this world are supported by others, they always have some tricks. Although more than a hundred people gathered in a few days, in the eyes of Liu Ruguo, these people are supported by nearly twenty villages, farms, hundreds of families, and thousands of people.
It is useless to support their families or not. Even if they don’t support them, can their families stay out of the matter after eating the grain released from opening the warehouse?
There are especially many Irish brothers and sisters. These people naturally become blood-related and have an offensive and defensive alliance under their interests. Even those who did not join the rebels began to inform them in the villages, rush to build weapons, and form militias.
It would be impossible not to form the company. The passion of opening a warehouse, releasing grain and wealth faded away, and everyone calmed down. Those nobles who were loyal to the governor would definitely send troops to conquer.
Liu Ruguo thought he had figured out everything, but he still couldn't expect the slow reaction of the Irish nobles.
The great nobles who were willing to suppress found that their methods of recruitment had failed.
The lowly nobles all believed that they had been beaten and experienced in the war last year. After counting, they determined that the army looting the farm was the vanguard of Zhu Xiaoen, King Ailan, and according to his bold and decisive attitude, they knew that it was the Ming mercenary under Zhu Xiaoen.
No one thought this was a farmer led by four Zhajia martial artists. Everyone imagined them as the Ming army who was extremely poor in martial arts and was extremely scarce in the enemy rocket artillery.
Who would like to fight those guys? The skillful and brave man was so brave that in the early battles of the siege last year, the 200 infantry dared to use the encirclement tactics to fight five or six hundred troops, and in the end he won.
As soon as the Great Lord summoned such an enemy, the little lord hurriedly led his troops to Dublin, and he would be wiped out on the way.
So everyone is smart. Anyway, the lord will not just call me and let others go first. When the troops gather in Dublin are almost there before going, the road will be safe, and even if the enemy runs away, there will be support.
This idea seems to be correct, but I missed a little bit. The "others" that should be gone first in the minds of these smart people have all died last year.
The news of the recruitment of troops was sank like a rock, which scared several great lords around Dublin - all fell?
So much so that everyone chose the same countermeasures: guard the castle and refuse to leave.
For a time, the strategic situation near Dublin was extremely calm. Zhu Xiaoen rushed to Dublin with a large amount of military rations, supplies, prefabricated wooden fences and other siege equipment carefully and slowly rushed to Dublin.
All the lords of England and Irish around Dublin remained silent as if they were bribed by Alan in advance.
Everyone in the world is like a turtle snail, but Liu Ruguo is like a husky breaking away under the city of Dublin. Today, three riders set fire to the north of the city. Tomorrow, more than a hundred people dig a ditch in the south of the city. The soil dug the day after tomorrow will be carried to the west of the city to build a large mound.
The defenders in the city did not dare to go out of the city to attack his men without armor.
To put it bluntly, Governor Grey didn't believe that hundreds of grain collection teams would come back after going out. None of the seventeen grain collection teams had ever seen the Ming army.
This is all those who have seen the Ming army die. Can this be the thing these Irish serfs do?
No matter what the grain collection team says, everyone has mail weapons, and everyone is strong and powerful. It is not something that hungry people outside the city who can't even eat enough to eat.
But it was not good to guess correctly. This is indeed not true. It was all done by Liu Ruguo himself, who led his apprentice.
No matter what lock-deck armor you wear, a person slashed it with a thick back with a knife. It would be half a lifetime for everyone to die. It would be just right if the Indian captive soldiers from the white tiger behind him swung their meteor ropes and tied them up and left.
It made Liu Ruguo famous enough.
When the nobles realized that this was really just a peasant army, they rushed out in anger, but Zhu Xiaoen, who was rushing to the city, was greeted by them.
At this time, there is only one winning strategy that can save your life - surrender with the flow and lift the slurry to welcome the king's army.
