Chapter 137 Sun Chuanting
Even if Li Chuang had a little farming move, Ying Yi would look up to him. However, it was not.
There is nothing wrong with the Ming Dynasty, because the Ming Dynasty was corrupt and the people were in trouble. It was time for the change of dynasties. But I only knew how to kill, kill, and there was nothing but destruction and destruction wherever I passed. This was worse than the corrupt Ming Dynasty.
People say that those who win the hearts of the people will win the world. In history, the thieves will be defeated in one battle. Is it really invincible to face the Tartars?
no.
But the thief did not win the hearts of the people.
His great success did not have the vigorous and upward atmosphere that a new dynasty should have. He abused too much, and people had seen through him, did not believe him, and were unwilling to contribute to him.
Just like now, Ying Yi doesn't take him seriously. Because Ying Yi knows that no matter how many people Li Chuang has, it will be a pile of rotten wood that collapses as soon as he touches it.
Li Chuang was able to have such momentum because the Ming Dynasty was even weaker. He was comparing with the Ming Dynasty who was more trasty.
In essence, the Ming court's official army should be stronger. However, Emperor Chongzhen could not control them, such as Zuo Liangyu and others, and did not listen to Emperor Chongzhen. If Chongzhen had corresponding control, then in this way, he would surround three sides and fight together. As long as the cooperation was done properly, it would not be difficult to defeat the thieves.
However, military generals are self-respecting, and civil officials are afraid of thieves and death. Apart from a very small number of people like Sun Chuanting, where could there be any war for Emperor Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty?
Ying Yi walked around the yellow dust, without any vitality at a glance, and his thoughts were flying for a moment.
Luyang Pass was left behind by him, and he went further and further away. Tian Jianxiu's bandits still didn't know where he had been.
Ruzhou Prefecture is much smaller than Nanyang and Kaifeng, with only five counties. The Ruzhou Prefecture Prefecture is Ruzhou. The west of Ruzhou is Yiyang, the southeast is Jia County, and the southeast is Baofeng and Lushan.
Ying Yi soon arrived at Lushan County. Needless to say, the county town of Lushan County is just a ruin. Apart from wild dogs and bones, there is probably no people.
In the counties and towns near Zhou, the people who could escape had fled, and those who could not escape were surrounded by thieves. The thieves were like locusts and would not leave anything wherever they passed.
The imperial government army was a great difficulty in suppressing the bandits, and it was here because it was impossible to replenish food, grass and weapons on the white ground.
The thief is much better - there is no food to eat people. If nothing is gone, they will rob them. This is their way to survive.
Standing on a ruin, Ying Yi looked north and thought to himself.
"Yesterday, the bandits had arrived in Ruzhou. If they went south, Jia County could cross directly. But they had to go to Lushan to pass through Luyang Pass." He said in his heart: "It's better to go to Baofeng first..."
With a decision in his heart, Ying Yi did not delay.
This time, Ying Yi brought nothing except a big knife worth more than a hundred pounds. He didn't even have a horse. He was tall and weighed three or five hundred pounds. He could not afford to hold the weight of ordinary horses. He could not afford to hold it up.
Ying Yi carried the knife on his shoulder, jumped down from the ruins, and walked northward.
The people in the feudal era called themselves or were called grass people, and Ying Yi felt it was more and more reasonable. Hundreds of years later, people evolved from grass to sheep. But in essence, it was the same. If it was a sheep, they had to be cut into wool. If it was a grass, they would be cut into the same.
But the grass has strong survivability, and the wildfire cannot be burned, and the spring breeze is blown back.
Even a purgatory on earth like Ruzhou is not completely without a trace of vitality. The fertile fields and originally safe towns can no longer stay there, so go to the mountains and the wilderness.
On the way to Baofeng, Ying Yi actually met a group of fleeing people.
Seeing Ying Yi walking with a knife from afar, the people were frightened. More than 30 people quickly formed a circle, surrounding the old, weak, women and children. The young and strong men were outside, holding various "weapons", hoes, sickles, etc., and looked at Ying Yi vigilantly.
The four words of respecting the elderly and loving the young are engraved in the civilization of the Xia people. From the oldest time, this virtue has permeated people's blood. The elderly have a place to support them, the young have a place to educate them, the poor have a place to support them, and the widowed, the widowed, the orphans and the disabled have a place to support them.
Whenever the end of the dynasty is at the end of the dynasty, when human nature is chaotic, the nature of the beast overwhelms human nature, and its virtues are not clear. And at this time, these virtues become more and more valuable.
Ying Yi was quite moved by this group of fleeing people.
He put down his sword and explained it before he talked to the ragged people.
These people were originally from Baofeng, all villagers from the same village. They hid in the mountains because of the rampage of thieves, and could only survive. But unexpectedly, a big battle occurred outside the mountain where they were hiding last night. After the big battle, the people were uneasy, so they escaped from their hiding place and prepared to go south.
When Ying Yi heard this, he couldn't help but feel moved and asked, "Do you know who are the two sides of the battle?"
The more than thirty people were headed by a thin father-in-law in his fifties. The father-in-law shook his head: "I don't know. It's dark and it's so fierce. The shouts of killing have been shouting for more than two hours. We are afraid that we will come to the mountains, so how dare we look at it?"
Ying Yi nodded slightly and said, "Lushan County is ahead. You can go to Lushan County for a while. I suggest you go south to Nanyang as soon as possible. All the thieves there have been wiped out. I heard that a Lord Zheng is organizing the people to clear the land in Ye County, Yuzhou and Wuyang counties. More than 100,000 people have gathered, which is very safe."
"real?!"
The people were all surprised.
Ying Yi smiled and said, "I came from Nanyang and will never deceive others."
Then he picked up the big knife, clasped his fists and said, "Just leave now, I wish all the peace of the villagers."
It was not until Ying Yi's back disappeared into the yellow dust that the father-in-law said, "This man is righteous, let's go to Nanyang."
Ying Yi left this group of refugees and speeded up his journey. He arrived outside Baofeng City before noon.
Looking at Baofeng City from afar, the strong smell of beacon fire that had not yet dissipated came. Hundreds of wooden stakes were erected outside the city, hundreds of heads nailed on them, many pairs of dead eyes and hideous faces all indicate the battle that had just happened in Baofeng.
"It seems that my guess is wrong..."
Ying Yi tried his best to recall the memories he brought from hundreds of years later, but it was very vague.
"It must be Sun Chuanting's arrival..."
The only ones who can fight against the thieves on the ground in Henan Province are except for him, Ying Yi, and Sun Chuanting. Hou Xun Ying Yi would not even think about it, but Sun Chuanting is the only one who can fight.
Tian Jianxiu moved westward. He originally thought he was going south and attacking Xiangcheng on his back. Now it seems that this is not the case.
"The scope of the investigation report that Ye Wukong is still too small..." Ying Yi sighed in his heart. Ye Wukong is a military branch, not an intelligence agency, and has great limitations. This is also one of the reasons why Ying Yi puts hard work on Tian Hongyu.
