- ¡¶¡· 262 Rebel Army (Part 2)
"The marshal has learned about Shangdang County and is very angry."
Because he was tired from traveling all night, Hong Tianyi¡¯s voice was hoarse and deep. Combined with his sharp eyes, the officials who were stared at by him felt palpitations.
"In broad daylight, the eldest son and the generals were held hostage by the rebels. You didn't know anything about it. Your incompetence and slackness are evident! If they make any mistake, you will be punished. Now, your only way out is to quickly put down the enemy. Rebellious soldiers, rescue the eldest son and a group of generals, this may reduce the punishment!"
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Without any polite greetings, Hong Tianyi simply set the tone: "You are all guilty when the eldest son is missing, just wait and see what happens." If you want nothing to happen, save people first!
Yi Xiaodao and the others suddenly tied up the eldest young master behind his back. This kind of thing is difficult for gods to prevent. Now Hong Tianyi came up and said that everyone was guilty. In fact, many people were muttering in their hearts. But things are like this in the world. Compared with those polite and reasonable civil servants, Hong Tianyi's unreasonable and tough and high-pressure style is more popular with the military. Everyone present felt awe-inspiring and stood up in unison and responded: " yes!"
Seeing that everyone was solemnly complying with the order, Hong Tianyi also breathed a sigh of relief.
The situation was urgent this time. He came in a hurry and did not bring his direct troops with him, so he could only rely on a few brigades of troops from the Shangdang to take action. He was not very worried about the rebels - there had not been eight out of ten mutinies in Northern Xinjiang every year. As a veteran of the border army, he was very experienced in dealing with such things. Raising wages is nothing more than giving money to calm down, and then finding some leaders to behead them afterwards.
He was worried about his own people - especially the deputy commanders of the Huxiao and Blade Brigades. If the two brigade commanders, Li Hu and Xu Ruoheng, were poisoned by the rebels, the deputy commanders would most likely be promoted to take over as brigade commanders. Fame attracts people's hearts, but if the two deputy commanders have bad intentions, deliberately interfere at critical moments, or work secretly without doing their best, there will be trouble.
Therefore, Hong Tianyi must set this tone: If the eldest son cannot be saved, everyone will wait for punishment, and forget about beautiful dreams such as promotion. Only in this way will these cunning and sinister frontier generals be willing to use all their strength to rescue Tuoba Xiang.
Hong Tianyi glanced at everyone sternly: "Where are the rebels now?"
Qiu Min, deputy commander of the Tiger Roar Brigade, reported: "General Qi, at noon today, the rebels just left the county boundary of Shangdang County and are almost at Huatai City."
"How many soldiers and horses are chasing them?"
"Because the general did not get the order to camp, he did not dare to leave the camp without permission, so there was only a team of cavalry tracking the rebels."
Hong Tianyi¡¯s eyes flashed with light and he groaned. All the generals were frightened, knowing that their little thoughts of not wanting to compromise their own strength had been seen through by the Wuchuan general. Fortunately, Hong Tianyi did not have a seizure and just continued to ask: "Is there any news about the eldest son?"
"Well, I have tried my best to investigate, but I still can't find any trace of the eldest son."
"What demands did the rebels make?"
"General Qi, we have sent many envoys to ask for negotiations with the rebel leaders, but they have refused to meet and drove our envoys away. It is very rude."
"Just drove them away?" Hong Tianyi frowned: "They didn't kill the envoy?"
"Well, not really. But there are people who refuse to meet us."
Hong Tianyi frowned in thought, he was considered a very experienced veteran, but this was the first time he had seen such a strange rebellion. The other party did not kill the envoy, nor did they raise a rebel flag. Obviously, they did not want to complete the matter and left room for recruitment. However, the other party refused to see the envoy for discussion and just kept walking north. What does this mean? ?
"With the rebels, are there any regular officers who escaped? Are there any deserters who escaped and were caught by us? You should have found out, who is the leader among the rebels?"
The generals all shook their heads: "General Qi, there is not a single deserter on the rebel side."
Hong Tianyi was surprised: "There is not a single deserter? How is this possible? How did Yi Ni and the others do it?"
Raising troops to cause chaos is a recipe for loss of head. There are nearly 10,000 soldiers in the three brigades. It is impossible for everyone to be determined to rebel. Even if some people were intimidated and impulsively participated in the incident, if they calmed down afterwards, many officers and soldiers would be afraid and escape secretly.
Hong Tianyi has been involved in dealing with many rebels, and he is very experienced in this kind of thing. Faced with the pressure of the imperial court, it would be great if only half of the troops at the time of the uprising could be left behind after a few days. Some rebellions were discouraged and left before the imperial troops could suppress them. As for the fact that tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can still be united after several days of rebellion - this kind of thing,Hong Tianyi had never heard of it.
The cohesion of the rebels was so high that after several days of rebellion, the Shangdang military could not even find out who the leader of the rebels was. Although Yi Xiaodao, Guan Shanhe and others were good generals, Hong Tianyi categorically affirmed that , they can't do such a heaven-defying thing.

"Have the border troops sent someone again?" Meng Ju raised his head from the case, the dim yellow oil lamp glowing dimly in the darkness. He looked tiredly at Yi Xiaodao in front of him for a while, rubbed his tired eyes and face, and shouted to the people around him: "Pour Yi Shuai a cup of tea - what's special this time?"
Yi Xiaodao took the tea, bowed slightly and said thank you, and sat down without Meng Ju greeting him.
After taking a sip of tea, Yi Xiaodao took out a letter from his arms: "They wanted to see me, but I ignored them. But this time they learned a lesson and left a letter for our patrol guard. I brought it to you. .¡±
Meng Ju took the letter and found that the opening of the letter was still intact. He opened the envelope and read the letter. He breathed out: "The frontier army has changed its commander, and the person in command now is Wuchuan General Hong Tianyi - please read the letter, it is written to you by him."
Yi Xiaodao took the letter and read it over. He put down the letter: "Hong Tianyi promised to forget the past and wants to surrender me. Governor, how should we reply to him?"
Meng Ju remained calm: "Lao Yi, what do you think?"
"It's better to leave them alone. If we don't say anything, they won't be able to touch our bottom. If they can't touch our bottom, they won't even dare to take action."
"Okay, that's it." Meng Ju picked up the letter from the case and flicked the paper.
"Back then, in order to pacify a garrison brigade, the elder Sun Shou had to give Xiao Heng the post of General Dongping to settle the matter. Now we have soldiers, food and money, and we have also captured the eldest son, Gao Renyi, Hong Tianyi only offered a price that would let the past be forgotten? Didn't he promise a commander-in-chief or a general? He must be looking down on you too much, Lao Yi."
Knowing that Meng Ju was joking, a bitter smile appeared on Yi Xiaodao's face. Before he could speak, Meng Ju's smile faded and turned serious: "Old Yi, there is something I want to tell you: take care of it. My own soldiers and horses!
In the past few days, Li Chimei from the rear reported that hundreds of people have been arrested just to catch your deserters! There was also Wang Hu who led the Doukai team to patrol the perimeter and captured hundreds of deserters. One of them was Guan Shanhe's deputy battalion officer! You promised me over and over again that you could control your own troops. Is this how you control your troops?
"Tell me the honest truth, can you hold your troops steady?" If you don't take good care of your own soldiers, then let us Dongling Guards take care of it for you! "
Meng Ju spoke in a serious tone, but Yi Xiaodao was not very afraid.
"Lao Meng, we are all not amateurs. You should also know that it is normal for the soldiers and horses to have deserted just now. It would be abnormal if there were no deserters. Our third brigade has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but only a few hundred people. Deserter, this is enough for us to be able to run the army - anyway, I paid you the thirty thousand taels of military pay honestly, and I didn't deduct even half of it!"
Meng Ju snorted: "How many of your troops know about us?"
"Not many. Apart from the three of us, the deputy commanders and commanders of each brigade all know about it. Among the battalion officers and commanders, only a few close commanders know about it - so you should rest assured that even if there are some deserters , they won¡¯t know the true feelings, let alone leak them.¡±
Meng Ju sighed and felt a little relieved - now, what he is most worried about is that the news of his existence will be leaked.
The upper echelons of the border army will not pay much attention to the mutiny of the Third Brigade of Dongping. They will think that this is an internal incident of the border army, and it is just a matter of making money. The Qiu Ba people are making troubles and making troubles, so just give them money. Especially since the main force of the border army has suffered successive defeats recently, the troops of the third brigade are considered to be a considerable amount of combat power. The upper management of the border army is likely to adopt a conciliatory attitude to deal with this matter.
But if he knew that he was among the rebellious border troops, the nature of the matter would be completely different.
I was originally Tuoba Xiong's biggest hatred, but now I have violated my original peace promise, wiped out a roadside army and horses in Jincheng, killed Tuoba Xiong's illegitimate son, and wiped out his dream of victory. Now He also incited the border troops to rebel and kidnapped his own son - Meng Ju asked himself, if he were Tuoba Xiong and knew the news about Meng Ju's here, he would personally lead the army to suppress it even if he risked his life and refused to kiss his son. Got him.
Looking at Meng Jujian frowning slightly, Yi Xiaodao misunderstood him and said: "Old man??, don¡¯t worry too much. You and I join forces, with a total of tens of thousands of soldiers and nearly a thousand elite armored warriors. Hong Tianyi came in a hurry. He didn't have time to mobilize troops from Xiangzhou. Shangdang County only had two Huaishuo brigade and one Xianyuba brigade, which was only three brigades. He couldn't do anything to us.
To deal with us, unless the marshal brings back six or more brigades of heavy troops from the front line in Xiangzhou. From what I know about the Marshal, he wouldn't do that.
The marshal is a man who understands the overall situation and can tolerate it. In his opinion, our rebel brigades are just a minor trouble, while the Murong family is the life and death enemy. Now is the critical moment. The front line is already in danger. If he sends troops back from the front line again, he will really be asking for death. He should not do this. "
