Geng Ruqi was a Jinshi and was a leader among scholars.

These days, there are many scholars who read medical books and know how to prescribe pulses, and Geng Ruqi is also quite knowledgeable in medical skills.

It is common sense that there will be a major epidemic after a major disaster, and Geng Ruqi certainly takes it seriously.

Since rodent control can prevent the Black Death, the entire military and civilians of Xuanda University should be mobilized to participate.

Anyway, the dangers of rats are well known to everyone, and there will be no resistance to executing such an order.

Geng Ruqi talked a lot with Huang Yi, and also detailed the recent rebellion in Denglai.

At this time, the Ming court had not yet realized that the rebellion of Li Jiucheng, Kong Youde and other old Dongjiang tribes would spread far and wide, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths and millions of people to be displaced.

Alas! In the final analysis, Emperor Chongzhen did not know how to employ people.

Sun Yuanhua was a scientist who was best suited to manage the casting of artillery and the production of blunderbuss in the Ministry of Industry. How could he be allowed to serve as the sole governor of Denglai?

At the time of the Wuqiao mutiny, the mastermind was Li Jiucheng, and Kong Youde was forced to do so. They only had about a thousand troops.

However, the governor Sun Yuanhua always fantasized about appeasement and failed to dispatch troops and generals in time to eliminate them.

In the end, the rebels fought more and more, reaching tens of thousands at most, causing harm to most of Shandong.

Denglai, who was originally able to contain Hou Jin, failed to recover. Instead, he became a traitor, Kong Youde, who often harassed Shandong.

Today's history is different. The reason is of course that Daling River City is still holding on. Wu Xiang and Song Wei, the two chief military officers, are hiding in Jinzhou behind closed doors, preventing the Later Jin Army from taking advantage.

Historically, these two living treasures were forced by Sun Chengzong to have no choice but to go to rescue Dalinghe City. When they saw it, the Jin army immediately ran away and lost thousands of troops.

During this period, Wu Sangui discovered that his escaped father was besieged by the Hou Jin Army, and led his armored servants to charge to the rescue. He was defeated by the Hou Jin Army and rescued Wu Xiang back to Jinzhou City.

During the melee, Wu Sangui was chopped in the face with a knife, leaving a scar on his nose ever since.

The story of Wu Sangui's bravery to save his father was later known to Chongzhen, which left a good impression of "unparalleled filial piety and righteousness" in the mind of this headstrong emperor.

Without such a good thing now, Wu Xiang would not leave Jinzhou City at all, and there would be no danger or danger. There would be no need for his son to fight to save him, and Wu Sangui would lose a good opportunity to become famous in one battle.

At this time, the tens of thousands of reinforcements led by Zhang Chun were not urged by the Ministry of War, so they marched cautiously, as slowly as a turtle crawling.

Huang Taiji, who was so anxious that he was planning to encircle the area for reinforcements, had a nosebleed.

At this time, Huang Taiji didn't know how difficult it would be to encircle the point and call for reinforcements.

That's because history was different. The Ming Dynasty did not engage in refueling tactics. Without Wu Xiang, Song Wei led thousands of troops to rescue twice in a row.

Today, there are 10,000 more soldiers in Jinzhou City. Because they were not defeated and lost tens of thousands of horses, their morale is still there.

After Zhang Chun's rescue troops and Jinzhou's troops joined together, they were able to form an army of 60,000 people.

Among them, 10,000 to 20,000 soldiers who were originally from Yongping Prefecture had a blood feud with the Hou Jin Army. They all had relatives who died in the massacre caused by A Min.

These people all took the initiative to join the army, thinking about revenge, and were determined to fight to the death.

All in all, various signs indicate that the Houjin side needs to be tough this time, and it is estimated that the battle damage will be far greater than in history.

The Battle of Daling River may drag on for several months. During this period, it will be absolutely impossible to mobilize thousands of Guanning troops into Shandong to put down the rebellion.

Huang Yi suddenly realized that the Ministry of War would most likely dispatch the Xinghe Army to Denglai when there were no troops to mobilize.

The historical Wuqiao Mutiny occurred at the end of November in the fourth year of Chongzhen and lasted for eighteen months.

It was not until April of the sixth year of Chongzhen that the Jin Dynasty came to an end when Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and others defected with cannons.

The cause of this mutiny was just a chicken. A soldier under Kong Youde took a chicken from the servant of Wang Xiangchun, a prominent family in Shandong.

In Wuqiao's territory, only the Wang family bullies others. When have they ever been bullied by others?

The servant of the Wang family, Gou Zheng, refused to give up and forced Kong Youde to "thread the arrow through the camp" with the soldier who snatched the chicken.

The servant returned home proudly with dignity. The soldiers who had been "journeyed through the camp" did not want to live in embarrassment any longer, so together with several indignant soldiers, they took advantage of the night and killed the servant and his entire family.

Afterwards, Wang Xiangchun's son, of course, refused to give up and forced Kong Youde to find the murderer.

Kong Youde's approximately 1,000 soldiers and horses were squeezed out and without food, so they were starving and suffering from cold and hunger.

When they arrived at Wuqiao, the locals here went on a strike, leaving Kong Youde unable to buy food even with his money.

It is extremely frustrating for a soldier to have a knife in his hand, but to be bullied and starved.

Now he has to be forced to hand over the murderer, and he is bewitched by Mr. Qian Li Jiucheng, who has lost all the money he spent on buying horses and can't make a deal. Of course, he explodes.

As a result, the Wang family was killed to the death, leaving only ten houses in Wuqiao empty. The soldiers who got pleasure from robbery and killing began to act unscrupulously...

Huang Yi is familiar with the history of the late Ming Dynasty and has the whole story of the Wuqiao Mutiny saved on his mobile phone.

Knowing that this mutiny completely changed the military balance between the Ming Dynasty and Hou Jin Dynasty, Huang Taiji received a large number of artillery and many skilled gunners in vain.

Huang Yi felt that he had the opportunity to lead the Xinghe Army to participate in Denglai counterinsurgency, and he was already making plans in his mind.

The best result is to intercept Kong Youde's rebels and prevent the cannons and gunners from falling into Huang Taiji's hands.

The Xinghe Army had no navy, and Kong Youde's men went into the sea. Huang Yi could only look at the ocean and sigh!

Therefore, it is very important to choose the time to participate in the pacification of Denglai. It must be during the time when the Liaohai Sea is frozen and cannot be navigated.

This year the imperial court did not feel the seriousness of the Wuqiao mutiny, and it was impossible to mobilize the He army.

If the deployment of troops is to be carried out next spring, then it will be postponed for various reasons until the autumn.

Fighting the rogue bandits is not interesting, but fighting the rebels who robbed most of Shandong is interesting. History records that when Kong Youde escaped, there were countless gold and silver treasures on the ship.

After capturing Dengzhou City, which the rebels had held for a year, tens of thousands of Ming soldiers made a fortune because too much gold and silver treasures were abandoned in the city.

Huang Yi explained his analysis of the Denglai rebels, and Geng Ruxi was surprised after hearing this.

He didn't think the rebels could capture Dengzhou City.

It didn't happen, so it's useless to say more. The reality will prove Huang Yi's judgment.

Therefore, Huang Yi told Geng Ruqiming that he did not want to enter Shaanxi to pursue the bandits, and was preparing to lead his troops back to Xinghe City for repairs. In a few days, tens of thousands of troops from the Chahar tribe would be sent to attack Xinghe City.

Mongolian tribes outside the Great Wall often entered the pass to plunder, and no one could say how many soldiers and horses they would dispatch.

As for whether he lied about military information, God knows.

It is understandable that the Xinghe Army evacuated southwestern Shanxi for this reason.

The next day, Wang Kun returned to the capital, and only Diao Debao and Xiao Lizi accompanied him.

Huang Yi expressed his stance, and the twenty Jin Yiwei who were sent to Xinghe City for "visit and study" soon returned after completing their studies.
