Uncle Li once said that when the people's hearts are scattered, it will be difficult to lead the team.

Rebellion is not a child's play, nor is it a dinner party. It is a dangerous action with your head in your belt. It does not mean that you can succeed by killing someone to raise a flag or shouting a slogan.

If you want to overthrow the imperial court, you must not only have a correct and feasible political program, but also a reliable enough team.

For example, the reason why Gou Chengzi, a well-known rebel thief, was quickly defeated was because of his slogans such as "eat his mother and drink his mother, if there is not enough food, there will be a king", "If you don't do the job, don't pay the food, everyone will have a good time" and so on

The slogan is simply an egalitarian utopia that is divorced from reality, and even thinking about it, it is impossible to realize it.

Another reason is that Gou Chengzi's rebel team developed too fast.

The initial backbone of Gouchengzi's rebel team was composed of landless peasants. As Gouchengzi's power grew, the backbone of Gouchengzi's rebel team changed from landless peasants to thugs, rebels, and so on.

It was precisely because of the change in the composition of the backbone that Gou Chengzi's rebel team became extremely obsessed with banditry. Later, it developed to the point where it only focused on conquering the country and forgot the original slogan of "equal land and free food."

Such a team that is not pure enough and violates its original intention and forgets its mission will inevitably make mistakes such as inconsistent thinking, unclear who is the real friend, not caring about the lives of the masses, and not paying attention to working methods, etc.

Coupled with the short-sightedness of Gou Chengzi and other reasons, Gou Chengzi rose up quickly but fell quickly. This truly explains what it means to be prosperous and fall suddenly.

And the mistakes Gouchengzi made during the rebellion are mistakes that many people will make - as Hegel said, the only lesson that humans can learn from history is that humans never learn from history.

Even if there are wrong cases like Huang Chao and Gou Chengzi in front of them, many people still think that as long as they defeat a few local tyrants and evil gentry, recruit a few soldiers, and engage in research and development, they can rely on advanced weapons to crush the Qing Dynasty.

In fact, this perception is very wrong.

Not all gentry need to be attacked at the level of annihilation, not all the soldiers recruited have full loyalty, and the ruling class of the Qing Dynasty who established slaves are not all fools.

Just like people of later generations like to criticize the Qing Dynasty for being closed-door to the country, is this really the case?

In fact, Kang Mazi was proficient in algebraic geometry, Qian Deaf Old Dog was proficient in several languages, the slave-establishing Ladakh had been spying on intelligence from Central Asia, and Jiaqing had even sent gifts to Napoleon.

The senior officials of the Qing Dynasty were very knowledgeable about the development of the world, and they were not simply closed to the outside world as people thought.

The purpose of establishing slavery and seclusion was to close the window through which the poor people could see the world, and to lock down the possibility of the poor people becoming serfs and singing songs. This is why there is a drama of the more people learn about the world, the more they become closed off to the country.

In the same way, don't think that you can crush the Qing Dynasty by engaging in scientific and technological training and military training, let alone think that those who follow you in rebellion can be immediately restrained by military law.

People who think this way are either too stupid or too naive.

Because everyone's thoughts are different. Some people are willing to sacrifice their lives for righteousness, while others are greedy for life and afraid of death. Some people have a breeze in their sleeves, while others are plucked by wild geese.

Therefore, the majority of travelers should remember one thing, that is, before copying the so-called military laws and regulations, you should first consider whether the team's thinking is consistent, and more importantly, whether the working methods are appropriate.

For example, now, Zhu Xiaosong said that allowing those young people who are unwilling to go to Yimeng to stay, on the surface it seems to be an overly democratic mistake, but in fact?

In fact, since these young men have already rebelled and gone up the mountain to rebel, there is no way back for them. After all, rebellion is a serious crime that affects the nine tribes.

If Zhu Xiaosong directly asked these young men to follow him to open a base in Yimeng Mountain, perhaps these young men would not object, but who can guarantee that no one will have other ideas?

Rather than using military law and discipline to force them to do so, it is better to let them figure it out on their own so that they can take the initiative to strengthen their determination to fight against the Qing Dynasty.

Only in this way can we avoid to the greatest extent possible ideological inconsistencies caused by complicated factors such as parents, wives, children, and the difficulty of leaving our hometown.

Don't forget, the straight-line distance from Yuhuang Mountain to Meng Lianggu on the other side of Yimeng Mountain is more than three hundred miles, plus you may encounter the Qing army's pursuit and interception along the way...

The consequence of inconsistent thinking is that there may be a situation of "grass secret electricity" or someone defecting in the face of battle.

Some people may also say that you, Zhu Xiaosong, said you were a rebel, but you only fought guerrillas here in Yuhuang Mountain. You didn't see any base areas, policies or systems in the rest of the country. You don't look like a rebel.

So here comes the question - it just occupies a hilltop in a plain area, and has only a hundred soldiers transferred from farmers. How can it be used to implement the system? What can be used to implement policies?

Does anyone really think that they can rely on the support of a few small villages to defeat the millions of Qing troops from the Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners plus the Han Eight Banners' Green Camp in the plains?

It was precisely because of this that Zhu Xiaosong planned to take the initiative to avoid the Qing Dynasty and temporarily retreat to Menglianggu on the other side of Yimeng Mountain.

…

At the foot of Yuhuang Mountain, a green-edged dragon-embroidered triangular flag fluttered in the wind. Below the flag, thousands of Green Camp soldiers armed with various weapons arrayed behind Fucha Mingxing.

Fucha Mingxing sat on the horse, holding a riding crop in his left hand, scratching his thighs with his right hand, and couldn't help but sighed: "Now that my thighs are getting thicker, I'm afraid it will be difficult to go to the battlefield to serve for my son."

Already."

Wu Zude, who was half a horse behind Fucha Mingxing, hurriedly advised: "Now that Futai is in his prime, why is there such a thing as fat?"

Just as Fucha Mingxing was about to speak, a soldier wearing green camp clothes rushed down from the mountain. He shouted loudly from a distance: "Report! There is no one on Yuhuang Mountain!"

When he got in front of Fucha Mingxing, the soldier knelt down on the ground, bowed his head and said: "Qi Futai, except for a few shacks and a flag, there is no one on Yuhuang Mountain!

"

Fucha Mingxing was immediately dumbfounded and asked: "Where are the rebels in Yuhuang Mountain?"

The soldier raised his head and replied with a blank look on his face: "Perhaps he is afraid of Master Futai's divine power, because the rebels in Yuhuang Mountain have long since escaped?"

Listening to the soldier's answer, Fucha Mingxing almost spat out a mouthful of old blood - Escape? I worked so hard to lead people to suppress the bandits and suppress the rebellion, but the rebels ran away early?

After coming back to his senses, Fucha Mingxing no longer cared about the pawn. He immediately got off his horse and hurried towards Yuhuang Mountain.

But after hurrying and slowly arriving at Yuhuang Mountain, Fucha Mingxing was dumbfounded.

The Jade Emperor Mountain in Ningyang County is not big. There is only a small Jade Emperor Temple on the top of the mountain. In front of the temple stands a large flag to pray for heaven. There are scattered around it a few empty temples.

shacks, other than that, there is only the white snow and the howling mountain wind.

Fucha Mingxing grabbed the collar of Wu Zude, who had just followed him, and asked: "Where are the rebels? Where are the big group of rebels? Where are they?"

No wonder Fucha Mingxing was angry.

Mobilizing the 8,000 green camp is not a trivial matter. People eat what horses chew along the way, and the money and food consumed every day is not a small amount.

However, in order not to delay Emperor Qian Deaf's smooth trip to the south of the Yangtze River, in order to save his head and the official hat on his head, Fucha Mingxing did not hesitate to go to war and directly brought all the eight thousand green battalions stationed in Qingzhou with him.

I came here just to be able to complete my task in one battle.

It's a good thing now that the army has been brought, but the rebels in Yuhuang Mountain have disappeared without a trace?

How can I explain this to Lord Long Live? Could it be that the traitor Zhu Xiaosong has been wiped out by the slaves, Lord Long Live, can you go to Jiangnan with confidence and boldness?

What if the traitor Zhu Xiaosong suddenly appears again? Will he commit the crime of deceiving the emperor?

Wu Zude and Wu Zhifu were also dumbfounded.

After being stunned for a long time, Wu Zude replied in a low voice: "I'm a low-ranking official. I don't even know."

Fucha Mingxing loosened his grip on Wu Zude's collar and stared blankly at the small Jade Emperor Temple in front of him. He looked a little lost, while the howling mountain wind could not stop the sound.

To Fucha Mingxing's ears, it sounded more like someone was saying the word "fool."

Wu Zude took half a step back and asked tentatively: "Master Futai, what should we do next?"

Fucha Mingxing was about to answer, but another person ran up from the bottom of the mountain. After kneeling down, he shouted: "Please report to Master Futai that Jining Prefecture River Governor Chen Tailai and Jining Prefecture Magistrate Zhan Hongbo have arrived at the foot of the mountain!"

Fucha Mingxing's face turned darker, he snorted coldly and walked towards the foot of the mountain.

He had originally sent a message to Jining Prefecture River Governor Chen Tailai, asking him to rush to Yuhuang Mountain with his three thousand river markers. As a result, he, the governor of Shandong, arrived with his troops, and the rebel Zhu Xiaosong also disappeared without a trace.

Did he, the governor of the river, arrive with his troops?

And Zhan Hongbo, the magistrate of Jining Prefecture, why the hell did he come here to join in the fun? Could it be that he came to see my joke?

Fucha Mingxing became more and more angry. As he walked, he thought about how to punish Chen Tailai and Zhan Hongbo - one of these two things delayed the military plane, and the other wanted to see Shangguan's joke. If they didn't punish them, who would they punish?

Just as Fucha Mingxing arrived at the foot of the mountain, Zhan Hongbo, the magistrate of Jining, rushed over first, fell to his knees with a thud, and shouted: "Unworthy Zhan Hongbo, come and see Mr. Futai! I beg Mr. Futai for Wenshang County."

The people decide!”

Jining Prefecture River Governor Chen Tailai also rushed over, knelt on the ground with a thud, and shouted: "The mark is too late, please punish me!"

Zhan Hongbo added: "For your information, Mr. Futai, Mr. Chen originally wanted to come to Yuhuang Mountain, but it happened that the Wenshang County government office was attacked by Zhu Xiaosong and other rebel bandits. Mr. Chen also wanted to hunt down those bandits.

I’m a little late, I hope Master Futai will give you some warning!”

Zhu Xiaosong?

Fucha Mingxing said: "Let's talk first. What's going on at the Wenshang County Government? What's going on with Zhu Xiaosong?"

Chen Tailai stood up, bowed and cupped his hands and said: "This is to inform Mr. Futai. I was sent to Yuhuang Mountain under my humble command. When passing through Wenshang County, I found that more than a dozen officials from Wenshang County had been killed, and their bodies were hanging in the county government office.

outside."

"Later, I sent people to investigate, and found out that the perpetrators were none other than Zhu Xiaosong and his gang, who came to suppress this time. I took matters into my own hands, first sending people to track down the whereabouts of Zhu Xiaosong and his gang, and then

We sent someone to notify Zhan Zhizhou."

"It's just that I'm humble and incompetent. In the end, I couldn't find any trace of Zhu Xiaosong and his gang, so I had to meet up with Zhan Zhizhou and rush to Yuhuang Mountain."

"Your humble position delayed the military flight. Please punish me, Mr. Futai!"

Fucha Mingxing couldn't care less about delaying the military plane at this time. As for what Zhan Hongbo said about making the decision for the people of Wenshang County, it was even less worth mentioning——
