Chapter 1565: The Beggars' Sect's Northern Expedition

The Junshan headquarters of the Beggars' Gang developed rapidly according to the general policy formulated by Nan Xiren. Within a radius of hundreds of miles, it is the sphere of influence of the Beggars' Gang, or it can be called the base.

The three elders Lu, Jian, and Liang are all pure people in the world. Although they listen to Nan Xiren's instructions, they are definitely not good at governing the local area.

Fortunately, with the help of the four capable people of fishing, woodcutting, farming and reading, the base area has been able to develop at a very high speed. In fact, all government affairs in the base area are handled by the four of them to help the Beggars' Gang.

The officials arranged by the court are just decorations. The nearby gentry and landlords also support the Beggars' Gang. This place has become an independent autonomous region.

Such a big thing, did the Southern Song Dynasty court and the civil and military officials know nothing about it? Are they really so incompetent?

Of course it is impossible. But the officialdom of the Southern Song Dynasty has been very corrupt, and it is normal to report good news but not bad news.

As long as the Beggars' Gang does not rebel openly, the taxes that should be paid will still be paid. The bureaucrats and gentry in this area will take the initiative to help cover up.

This kind of thing must not be known to the court. Otherwise, it will not necessarily cause much trouble.

The most feared thing is that Lin'an sends troops to suppress the bandits. TNND, those officers and soldiers are worse than bandits. Thieves are like combs, and soldiers are like combs. This is not a joke.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, even if bandits really appeared in the local area, local officials and gentry would generally suppress it and not report it.

Officials consider their own political achievements, and gentry consider their own property. Sometimes it is better to spend money to eliminate disasters than to report to the court.

Although the Beggars' Gang controls all affairs in the Dongting Lake area, they have not harmed the interests of officials and gentry, and they are not even bandits. Local people will naturally not cause trouble for the Beggars' Gang.

What's more, three years ago, Xiao Ming had already controlled some of the nearby officials and gentry landlords.

With them leading the pace within the landlord class, things will naturally develop in a favorable direction for the Beggars' Gang.

Of course, not all officials in the court are good-for-nothings. Most of those who can stand out in the imperial examinations are not stupid. But everyone has selfish motives.

Shipping in the Yangtze River Basin has always been very developed, with tens of thousands of large and small ships coming and going every day.

The changes in the Dongting Lake area over the past three years cannot be concealed from anyone. Even some senior officials in the court know that there is something fishy about this place.

However, as long as you are not a particularly stubborn person, you will definitely not risk offending all the literati in this area and expose the matter to Emperor Zhao. It will hurt others and not benefit yourself.

Everyone was very careful to cover the lid to ensure that the court received good news and the situation was very good.

The Beggar Gang army trained by Yang Tiexin with "Wu Mu's Testament" has been quite effective. After the Mongol expedition to the west, the Beggar Gang army vowed to march north.

A Jianghu gang, the northern expedition to the Great Jin Kingdom, also shocked the martial arts people in the Central Plains.

The beggars' army went to the Jin Dynasty and fought guerrilla warfare everywhere, avoiding the real and attacking the fake, and they became stronger and stronger. The Han people in the north came to surrender.

The Jin Dynasty's original warriors who were able to fight and dared to fight had all died under the butcher knife of the Mongols before. When the beggars' army came, the remaining ones were basically cowards.

Even if a few people still had the courage to fight, how could they be the opponents of the elite soldiers trained by Yang Tiexin. Large numbers of villages and counties fell into the hands of the beggars' gang.

All the government affairs in these places occupied by the beggars' gang were handled by Zhu Ziliu and others. Finally, he had a good time as the prime minister.

However, the defense of the prefecture-level cities in the Jin Dynasty was still strong. The beggars' gang was still mainly expanding the army and training soldiers, and did not rashly attack the big cities. They took the path of surrounding the cities with the countryside.

Seeing the rapid momentum of the beggars' gang. Several other forces in the League of Legends could not sit still.

It seems that the Jin Dynasty is nothing. It is easy to bully. We can't let the Beggars' Sect take advantage alone! So they also organized armies to attack.

As a result, they found that it was not that easy when the war started. The hastily organized army of the Iron Palm Gang fought against the Jin army head-on, but they were not strong enough and were defeated.

They wanted to ask the Beggars' Sect for some occupied areas. Unfortunately, the alliance had already agreed on the rules, whoever conquered the place would own it. It could not be transferred at will.

Qiu Qianren had no choice but to seize the time, reorganize the army, and prepare to come again. What the Beggars' Sect can do, the Iron Palm Gang should be able to do.

As for the Quanzhen Sect, Qiu Chuji was highly valued in Mongolia. So their power was advancing westward, gradually penetrating into the interior of the Mongolian grassland. They didn't care much about the ownership of the Jin Kingdom.

The two bandits in Dongting Lake and Taihu Lake were all their own people. They advanced with the Beggars' Sect by water, and occupied a lot of territory near rivers and lakes.

Later, the bandits in the Poyang Lake area could not sit still. Seeing so much fat meat right there, it would be a pity not to eat it.

So they also joined the League of Legends, and now they just followed the two seniors to get a bite of soup. Even so, life is much better than in the Southern Song Dynasty.

At the beginning, the officers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty knew nothing about what happened in the Jin Dynasty. After all, Mongolia and the Great Jin Dynasty had fought fiercely not long ago. Tens of thousands of people died on both sides.

The fierce and bloody scene scared the officers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty. For a long time, they hid in their own country and dared not show their heads.

Later, as the news gradually spread, they learned that the Mongols had already withdrawn, and a group of Han Chinese called the "League of Heroes" were beating the Jin army to a pulp, and they were hiding in the big cities and dared not show their heads.

The minds of these military leaders inevitably became active. They had no courage to fight the Jurchens; they dared not to go to war with the Mongols; but they were full of confidence in bullying the "righteous army" who were also Han Chinese.

After all, the righteousness was on the side of the court. In the past, the righteous army active in the territory of the Jin Dynasty was proud to be able to make friends with the Song Dynasty. They were very good to the civil officials and military generals of the Song Dynasty.

The military leaders estimated that this so-called League of Heroes should be the same. So they sent their confidants to the north to contact.

Some anxious ones even hid it from their superiors and directly led their troops across the border, hoping to take advantage of the territory controlled by the righteous army.

The Song Dynasty had always been afraid of the Jin Dynasty, and they did not expect to get the credit for "expanding territory". If this matter is reported, the court may chop off their heads and report to the Jin Kingdom.

So these "generals in command" actually just want to lead troops to the north to rob the people, rob themselves of money and women.

Unfortunately, Nan Xiren was well prepared. The League of Legends will not attack the Song Dynasty, but will never surrender to the Song Dynasty. These guys made a wrong calculation.

Those who sent envoys were better off, at most they were expelled from the country. Those who directly led troops to kill were completely wiped out by the League of Legends' army, land and sea cooperation.

The generals who led the troops were beheaded, killing chickens to scare monkeys. The soldiers were left in the north as coolies to atone for their sins. This shocked most of the Southern Song army.
