RNP Chapter 136
Chapter 136
Zhang Xianzhong froze in shock at the farmer's words.
This, is this still Daming?
It's heaven, right?
That Lao Tzu also made a hammer anti?
Zhang Xianzhong was very tormented in his heart, isn't this life the life that the people of Daming want?
His own peasant army has now become a rat crossing the street that everyone shouts at.
The few pro-soldiers brought with him already had the idea of returning to their hometown at this time.
Li Dingguo and Sun Ke hope that they are the same, this people live so well.
What else to rebel for?
Zhang Xianzhong looked at Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang beside him.
"Yoshiko, tell me what you plan to do now?"
"His Majesty the Chongzhen Emperor, he has created a prosperous era! The people live and work in peace, and the military is afraid that it is already unstable! "
Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang spoke very cryptically, and Zhang Xianzhong was very clever and understood it as soon as he heard it.
They ate and said goodbye to the farmers.
On the way back to Wuchang, Zhang Xianzhong was in a very low mood.
"Alas! The people live so well, our territory, I am afraid that there are people and soldiers who run away every day, right? "
"Sun Kewang, you are in charge of managing the escape of the people and soldiers, and you haven't reported it in the past few months, I'm afraid that's the reason, right?"
Sun Kewang was scared 24 and shivered, but Zhang Xianzhong killed without blinking.
"Righteous father, few people fled before, and a large number of people and soldiers have all fled in the past two months! They heard that the people of Daming were living well, giving food, money, and even subsidies and land distribution, but as a result, too many people ran away, and the children did not dare to tell the righteous father truthfully! "
Zhang Xianzhong felt very heavy, saying that when he was in Tuntian in the past few months, he saw fewer and fewer people, and there were no people in Wuchang City, and they all ran away.
"Then how many people are there in the territory we occupy?"
"Before there were about 800,000 people, now there are less than 100,000 left!"
Zhang Xianzhong's scalp was numb, and he used to live in the place of Tuntian.
I don't know if I don't know, but when I ask, the people actually ran almost the same.
"It seems that the rest are our diehard loyalists!"
"No, no, no, the rest are all old people over fifty or sixty years old, they can't run, so they don't run!"
Zhang Xianzhong was messy and looked at Sun Kewang in front of him.
"Why didn't you tell King Ben earlier?"
"Righteous Father, we are afraid that you will be angry, so we dare not tell you!"
"Our peasant army used to be 120,000, but now there are less than 30,000 left!"
"Most of them are wounded soldiers who are inflexible in retreating!"
When Zhang Xianzhong heard what Sun Kewang said, he began to talk to himself, chattering, as if he had lost his heart and gone crazy.
"What to do? Now what? "
"Righteous Father, don't panic! It's a big deal for us to go west, won't we get it when we enter the land of Bashu? Liu Wenxiu put forward his own opinion.
Zhang Xianzhong nodded: "Yes, this Wuchang City can't stay for a long time!" "
"Order the remaining soldiers to take the grain and grass we have hoarded and go to Bashu in the west!"
"King Ben does not believe it, and the people in every place in Daming have lived a good life!"
Zhang Xianzhong did not believe it, and Daming entered the prosperous era.
How come this Chongzhen decade has entered the prosperous era in less than half a year?
Back in Wuchang City, Zhang Xianzhong summoned all the generals and ministers.
He wanted to hold a targeted meeting to discuss, how did Chongzhen turn the tide in a few months?
This is not reasonable at all, even very unreasonable.
After a while, the generals and ministers all arrived.
Zhang Xianzhong sat on the chair and looked at the arriving generals and ministers.
"What's going on? This king Tuntian is half a year younger, this will be seven percent less, and the minister will run eight percent? "
Zhang Xianzhong looked at the sparse dozen generals and ministers, and was once again dumbfounded.
"Great King, everyone has heard about the various policies of the Daming Imperial Court!"
"As long as they go back, they will not be sentenced, and they can still live like ordinary people, so many of them have stopped doing it!"
Zhang Xianzhong was worried, and even worried that these guys around him would not arrest themselves to ask for credit.
"Then why don't you go?"
"We don't know if Daming has really entered the prosperous era!" (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）
"Moreover, in the past few years, Daming was full of displaced people, and it often happened that they changed their children and ate food!"
"How can a dynasty enter the prosperous era from the end of the world in just half a year? This is unreasonable, it is estimated that the Ming Imperial Court is playing tricks on us again! "
Zhang Xianzhong was instantly awakened.
"Yes, the imperial court is really willing to spend blood, and it is estimated that the counties and villages around us will create a prosperous appearance, which is to break our fighting spirit!"
Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang nodded along.
"There is indeed such a situation, so to speak, the imperial court is really bloody!"
Zhang Xianzhong seemed a little more relaxed, since he found the flaws in the imperial court, then he could find a countermeasure accordingly.
"Since they are creating the illusion of prosperity around Wuchang City, then we will go to Bashu!"
"Bashu is poor everywhere except Chengdu Prefecture! When the time comes, you can recruit many poor people! "
Zhang Xianzhong's heart was once again ignited, and after five days of hasty preparation, they left Wuchang City, which had been entrenched for a year.
They were followed only by 30,000 soldiers and 30,000 soldiers' families.
Together with the families and children of the soldiers, a total of almost 100,000 people marched towards the land of Bashu.
As soon as they walked out of Wuchang City, the people along the way heard that Zhang Xianzhong had evacuated Wuchang City and reported to the Ming army one after another.
The National Salvation Army and the Revolutionary Guard in the Two Lakes Theater have been fully recruited.
Zuo Liangyu, who previously served as the general soldier in Huguang, has long been out of soldiers at this time.
Zuo Liangyu's heart was heavy, he was originally the general soldier of Huguang.
As a result, a divine decree came down, and all his soldiers and horses were laid off.
The key is that the imperial court issued a severance pay of 2,000 yuan to the dismissed soldiers and horses, and when they heard that their family had divided the land, they actually dispersed directly.
Zuo Liangyu thought that with his prestige, he could completely avoid the dismantling of his soldiers and horses.
363 But these soldiers and horses, all rushing to receive severance pay, what a hell.
Zuo Liangyu also knew that those soldiers were almost out of food with him.
Today, the people of Daming are living well, so they are more willing to be disbanded.
Zuo Liangyu is now without even a family member beside him, and the revolutionary guard of the Daming Imperial Court is fighting corruption again, and he will enter sooner or later.
Why just flee under Zhang Xianzhong now?
Anyway, he has no soldiers, and the revolutionary guard is estimated to be about to investigate himself.
Zuo Liangyu rode a horse and brought his family to Zhang Xianzhong's army.
"Zuo Liangyu, the general soldier of Huguang in front of the Daming Dynasty, specially came to join King Zhang Xianzhong!"
Zhang Xianzhong was struck by lightning again.
What's the situation?
Zuo Liangyu came to defect to himself?
Isn't he the general army of Huguang, with 300,000 troops?
This sun hit the west and came out?
Zhang Xianzhong did not dare to snub, and took Li Dingguo and them to pick up Zuo Liangyu.
"Hey, Zuo Liangyu, where are your soldiers and horses? Just you and your family are here? "
Zuo Liangyu lowered his head and felt very heavy.
"Two months ago, a holy decree came down, and all my soldiers and horses were laid off!"
"What? Layoffs? Your soldiers and horses, you are willing to dismiss? "
Zuo Liangyu let out a long sigh: "How can I be willing to dismiss, but I want to take them to fight for reason, but these soldiers collected severance pay and went home!" "
"When the people's lives are better, they are not willing to work for me! All went to the imperial court as obedient people! "。
