Chapter 33 The flag of evil hangs high
In the late autumn of 1342 AD, the vigorous Agriculture Revolutionary War burned out Hezhou and expanded into the surrounding three counties. This land war was about to reach its climax, because Cheng Pan's actions had completely violated the interests of the ruling class of the Jianghuai Dynasty. Cheng Pan faced a powerful counterattack.
Mo Rigen of Shouchun's first reaction was impossible after receiving the news, because the grain from Hezhou had just entered the warehouse. There were no rebels who first handed over the grain and then rebelled. This was unscientific. However, as more and more large clans reported and the bandits from several counties, Mo Rigen had to believe it. He sent his spies, and the news he received made him jump. He obediently 20,000 rebels were all in the four counties and artillery. This was to go against the will. Zhou Ziwang rebelled a few years ago, and there were only 5,000 people, but now he turned it around. So he ordered the suppression of the rebels and an army gathered from strategic places such as Luzhou.
Cheng Pan had long paid attention to Shouchun's movements and started to act when he learned that Mo Rigen was taking action this time.
Mo Rigen, who was dispatching troops, received bad news. The grain management officer reported that all the food in the grain silo disappeared inexplicably in the past two days. Mo Rigen's first reaction when he heard this news was to whip this guy. He didn't see his boss busy and had nothing to do to make fun of me. Later, he found that the grain management officer had no expression and was rushing to the grain storage. The whole warehouse was empty. Mo Rigen felt that his body was lighter and he was about to fall back and be held back by his subordinates. This was millions of stones of grain. A few days ago, he saw a batch of grain being sent in with his own eyes. Now it is clean and can run away. Mo Rigen suddenly got up and pulled up his knife to hold it on the grain management officer's neck with red eyes and said in a crazy tone: "Where are grains? Where are you hiding the grain? Tell me quickly." The grain management officer stuttered and replied: "Little, small, little man really doesn't know, two days ago, the villain locked it.
This morning, I was inspecting this morning, and I discovered that I was so happy, let me go." "What do you want?" After saying that, Mo Rigen used a scimitar to scratch the throat of the grain officer. Blood splashed over Mo Rigen's face, making him even more ferocious. No one dared to answer the conversation. At this time, I was looking for death. Mo Rigen shouted: "Search, search, look for me within a mile near the granary." The people around him breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to leave quickly. At this time, Mo Rigen shouted: "Slow down, come back for me." The person who sent the order shook his body and turned back. Mo Rigen slowly swept over everyone present with a beast-like look, and pointed at the person in front of him, gritting his teeth and saying in a low tone: "If anyone tells this today, everyone here will die." The last word death was roared.
The people near the granary were in trouble. Because the important place in the granary was located in the gathering place of Mongolians, the cellars of these Mongolians were searched in a key way, which made the mess.
Mo Rigen is not alone. Not only Shouchun, Luzhou, Huainan and other military ration stockpiling sites have been drained. Our Cheng Pan thief has been working overtime these days and is busy working as a gentleman on the Liangshan Mountain in the past few days. He ran more than a dozen times in a day. The granary warehouses of several underground cement troughs built in Hexian County are mostly filled with half.
In the past, Cheng Pan did not dare to act so much. He subconsciously believed that it was good to make a fortune in silence. He would make a big fortune regardless of everything and would be discovered by those who are interested. But he was about to encounter a war, and Cheng Pan was furious to send troops and food to the generals on Huaixi Road.
Cheng Pan's land revolution directly attracted the attention of the senior executives of the entire Jiangbei Province in Henan Province, and a large number of Mongolian nobles complained. The backstage behind this group of people was too big. The superiors' names urged Mo Rigen to suppress the bandits. Mo Rigen had to send troops.
However, due to insufficient military rations, Mo Rigen decided to reduce the number of troops to 5,000 and gave the order to supply grain along the road. However, the officials in the granary along the road were confused when they received this order. The officials in Luzhou cleverly set fire to the military granary, and then cut off the grain manager as the person in charge. He wrote a profound apology document and presented most of his property. Several other officials who were also confused seemed to have been enlightened and followed the officials in Luzhou to follow the Luzhou officials and handed over their apology.
When Mo Rigen saw so many reports of water flowing in the granary, he wanted to curse at first. Then he thought carefully and combined with the situation of losing grain in his granary. He felt that losing grain was not his own, and this was a very wide-ranging thing. Thinking about the fact that he had taken away the grain without anyone knowing it, and it was not just a single one. Mo Rigen thought that this must be done by a huge organization. As for how powerful this organization has, Mo Rigen could not imagine.
Mo Rigen received the money and urgently purchased a batch of food from Jiangnan, and ordered people to take care of him day and night. The days of sending troops were delayed for a month.
In this month, Cheng Pan focused on re-establishing the system of newly occupied areas, and at the same time expanded the scale of the village protection team to 5,000 people. It was not that he didn't want to expand. Although gunpowder and newly built guns could support the battle of 10,000 people. However, there was not enough time to allow the newly joined soldiers to quickly run in and form combat power. Cheng Pan gave up the idea of continuing to fight violently.
After the previous land war, Cheng Pan found that his army could be improved in some places. First of all, the establishment of the scout troops. Cheng Pan found that as the army continued to expand, the role of scouts became more and more obvious. Cheng Pan picked out the best horses seized and formed a scout troops. Wang Tianzhu was transferred back to the army from the foreign trade group, and a large number of elite personnel came back with him.
The other is the issue of vision. Cheng Pan's sun power has improved his physical fitness, including vision. In the past, Cheng Pan's team's little commander was represented by Cheng Pan himself, but he had not found any problems. Now that the team has expanded, Cheng Pan began to delegate command power, and the commander's vision problem has arisen. After summarizing this problem, the rear urgently solved the problem of the task and circulated it to the commander.
Now that the number of firearms under Cheng Pan's subordinates reaches 5,000, it is called the Hu Village Team, and it feels a bit inappropriate. The name of Hu Village Team is too small, and it makes soldiers fight against the Yuan Dynasty government. He always feels like a bandit army in the country and is naturally weakened. Especially the newly recruited recruits are still a little afraid of the official army. Cheng Pan decided to take his own banner and change the Hu Village Team to the Gonghe Army. Cheng Pan explained to the Republic that farmers were a happy land for cooperation, and the Gonghe Army was a army that was supported by migrant workers to protect this joint cooperation order from being destroyed by external forces. This explanation is still fair.
Most of the Gonghe Army came from the lower-class farmers, and their relatives and friends in the family have improved significantly in recent years. Due to the forced literacy in the army, most of the soldiers understood the truth and knew what the changes in life came from now. With Cheng Pan's conscious guidance, the Gonghe Army expressed firm support for the current system and Cheng Pan who established it.
Regarding the establishment of the military flag, all the officers decided to write a word Cheng on it at first, indicating a little bit of the Cheng family's army. Cheng Pan felt that his subordinates were a little overwhelmed. After all, Cheng Pan came from the modern era. For such a blatant personality cult, Cheng Pan believed that he was not as shameless as Jin Sanpang's family. What is the role of such a unique military flag in addition to promoting his ambitions? The main purpose now is to ensure that the regime is not defeated by the Yuan Dynasty. Enjoy the glory of the leader and throw it away first.
So Cheng Pan denied the uncreative design under his command. In order to reiterate why the army fought, Cheng Pan personally designed the military flag. The evil flag was born more than 500 years ahead of schedule in this space and time.
The military flag is red overall, with golden sickle and hammer crossing.
