A troche y moche = Spray and Pray
It is an adverbial, that means so haphazardly; hit, unthinkingly. According Covarrubias, its metaphorical sense is in that, who going to the mountain to cut firewood, contravenes the laws of short "and lopping the oaks, while not pendon guide ..... and still not happy with that, it cuts the oak by the foot".
