Chapter 222: The New Emperor
Chapter 222
Qiyuan City, this small town with a border plug, the city gate was originally dilapidated, and after Zhu Can brought everyone here, he built it from the ground up, and the city wall was no longer full of weeds.
In front of the city gate, the two tall soldiers saw Zhu Can taking the lead, performed the most standard ancient military salute, came to the city and took the initiative to dismount, walking on both sides of the street, people happily followed Zhu Can to say hello.
Although this is a paradise-like city, but there is also a level of oppression, before the owner of this city was named Zhao Bancheng, said that it was Zhao Bancheng, in fact, the whole city was his, he occupied the mountain as the king, and exploited the people here in the name of skill.
Zhu Can came, with thousands of soldiers directly to a policy of fighting local tyrants and dividing the land, directly won the support of the people in the city, and the experience summed up in China for thousands of years is very suitable to use in this place, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, recall the history of the Tang Dynasty, that flourished, the Tang Dynasty created by Li Shimin, is to regard the people as children.
Zhu Can also wants to build this place into a place where the people live in peace without closing their doors at night, so that this place can truly become his base camp and base.
Two years have passed, and the city has begun to flourish, with streets lined with shops and laughter.
Because the current emperor of the Xia Kingdom, Long Pengju, ignored the government and handed over all the government affairs to the sea of clouds, the Xia Kingdom was in ruins at this time, and many of the people fled from their hometowns to other places, and a large part of them found this place and settled down here, and there were people who defected every day, which made the number of people in the city increase day by day, and also made the law and order tense.
But fortunately, there are 2,000 soldiers, and Zhu Can has promulgated a lot of laws and regulations, so that people can find shelter in accordance with the rules, in fact, the people's requirements are very simple, especially the people in this troubled world, as long as they can have food and shelter.
Outside of the city, there was a large area of fertile land, which was enough to provide them with food and clothing.
City Lord's Mansion, Zhu Can saw Long Tengfei who was studying seriously, although the two of them are almost the same age in this life, but in terms of social experience, Zhu Can is obviously more than him, it's okay Long Tengfei likes to ask Zhu Can questions.
"Brother Zhu Can, you're here."
No matter when, your strength will always subtly determine your status, although Long Tengfei is now a prince-level figure, but he belongs to the kind of homeless person, plus Zhu Can now holds great power in his hands, has strength, and has an army, so Long Tengfei can't help but be very polite when he speaks.
"Just call the eldest brother, pay you back, what's polite to me, don't forget that we are brothers, no matter what time it is."
Zhu Can knew what he was thinking, and couldn't help but say something.
"Well, we're brothers."
Long Tengfei nodded at Zhu Can very gratefully, this brother really didn't make friends in vain, sometimes your unintentional actions may achieve your unlimited future prospects, in fact, I just looked at Zhu Can pitifully, and didn't want him to be hurt, so I have always been close to him, plus my father is the prince, many people don't like to play with him, and they are always respectful, after all, my father was the one who could take over the throne at that time, who didn't leave half a sentence when he spoke, the palace was the most deceitful place, but it was not like Zhu Can at the beginning, He never played tricks with him, of course he just wanted to play, and the idiots at that time couldn't play it.
"There's something I'd like to discuss with you." Zhu Can's face was right.
"What's the matter, big brother, you just say it directly, as long as the younger brother can do it, he will never shirk."
The dragon soars back.
"Before I get down to business, you answer a few questions, you've read so many books, what do you think we need to overthrow Long Pengju's imperial power now?"
Zhu Can asked out loud.
"Hmm..."Long Tengfei pondered slightly and said loudly, "Military power, that is, the army, there are two most important points, one is the banner of justice, the ancients are not good, the name of the truth can quickly gather people's hearts, and the most important thing is the people's heart, I read the codex of the ancestor emperor when I was very young, he said that only those who win the hearts of the people can win the world, and with the hearts of the people, they can be invincible." ”
"Okay, good, then what do you say we should do if we take down a city?"
Zhu Can nodded approvingly.
"Just like you are now governing Qiyuan City, distribute the land to the people, and those who can't eat enough, we will open a warehouse and put grain, let them eat first, do not disturb the people, and treat them as relatives, so that they can quickly receive the city and stabilize their heels, of course, they also need a lot of policy support, such as reducing forced labor, paying taxes, etc., and so on to stabilize the city, the people get benefits, they are willing to pay for us, when the time comes, we are recruiting troops, and the strength has increased greatly."
Long Tengfei said slowly.
"Then if you become the emperor, will you treat the people well and let the once glorious Xia Kingdom restore its peak?"
Zhu Can waited for the other party's words to fall, and asked again.
"I had a dream when I was very young, if I became an emperor, I would be brave and virtuous, let the people live in peace, and let the Xia Kingdom be majestic in all directions."
Long Tengfei seemed to be very happy, and replied directly without hesitation, but when he reacted, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he said a little nervously, "Big brother, I... I didn't mean that, I would only talk on paper, if you want to overthrow Long Pengju, you still need a character like you, you are the true emperor. ”
"Haha.... Tengfei, you, you have been in the palace for too long, do you think I am the emperor's material, I am not, I don't want to, but you are, you will definitely become a generation of Ming monarchs in the future, from today you are the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, and I am your Zhenguo general, I will fight the world for you, how about you are responsible for governing the country? ”
Zhu Can laughed out loud, and said with a proud face.
"This.... This...."
Long Tengfei was stunned for a moment, he never thought that Zhu Can would support him as emperor.
"Why are you afraid?"
Zhu Can asked with a smile.
"I'm afraid, I've never been afraid, I just didn't think of it.... Thank you, big brother, I will not let you down, Xia will regain its former peak in my hands. ”
The dragon soared as if he was making an oath.
"Don't thank me, remember that we are brothers, brothers who will never change, let's go, let's go and tell everyone that from now on we will establish a new policy and compete in the world."
Zhu Can took Long Tengfei's hand and walked outside.
In the center of Qiyuan City, there is a small square, at this time two thousand armor soldiers have already stood quietly, the military discipline is strict, do not squint, although the clothes on their bodies are a little shabby, and even some of the generals' armor has been damaged, but they still stand proudly in place.
The people, who had long known that they were going to announce the news, kept whispering on the side, and when they saw Zhu Can coming with the dragon Tengfei, they suddenly became quiet, and people waited eagerly.
Walking on the high platform, Long Tengfei in addition to feeling the shock, is an oncoming killing aura, after nearly two years of special training in Qiyuan Mountain, their bodies have been contaminated with iron and blood, it is certain that when they face the enemy, they will definitely show a more domineering, fierce side, even wolves can tear alive, let alone people.
Careful observation will find that among the two thousand soldiers, there are still a few warrior-level soldiers, most of them are martial artists, and each of those generals is in the realm of martial saints, among which Yang Wei, who is standing in the front row, Lei Pengzhen, and several important generals are all martial arts strength, such a luxurious lineup is simply terrifying to watch.
"General, all the 2,000 soldiers have been assembled, please give an order!"
Yang Wei bowed down and shouted at Zhu Can on the high platform.
"Take a break!"
Zhu Can drank loudly, and suddenly the sound of uniform footsteps sounded, this formation is not inferior to the tens of thousands of troops when Dad set out to fight, of course, this is also a direct copy of some of the original traditions of Huaxia, after all, there are still a lot of things in this world that I don't know, if I don't understand, I don't understand, just change it directly, and it's good to be used to it.
"Brothers, we have been holding back for two years, and in these two years, you have grown from ordinary soldiers to elites, and it is time for us to attack."
Zhu Can's voice sounded slowly, he wouldn't say Mao's great truth like Bai Hong in his previous life, he had an official tone, and what he would do was the truth.
Kill!
A low shout rang out above the sky.
"Cangtian is dead, Long Pengju since he became the emperor, mediocre, appointing ministers, let the lackeys of Yasukuni serve as national teachers, the scourge of our Xia people is not happy, you are all from the imperial capital, from many places in the Xia country, you have also seen the original prosperous Xia country has become a dilapidated, two years I have been looking for my father, I want my father to come back to be the master, but unfortunately he has no news for two years, I know that you can't wait, I can't wait, too many people are in dire straits, Waiting for us to come to the rescue, do you have any objections to me calling myself the general of Zhenguo? ”
Zhu Can said so much nonsense, just for this sentence.
"Nope!"
To tell the truth, today's army has completely belonged to Zhu Can, in their hearts Zhu Can is the real soul, if Zhu Cheng comes back, he may not be able to command, when a force brings the color of a general, it will not change easily.
"Okay, since everyone has no objections, then let's set up a new lord, overthrow Long Pengju's imperial power, and return the people to live in peace, Long Tengfei I think everyone is no stranger, the son of His Royal Highness the Prince, the grandson of the emperor, he is full of poetry and books, virtuous and loyal, today the general is here to serve Long Tengfei as the new emperor."
After Zhu Can finished speaking, he hugged his fists, knelt directly in front of Long Tengfei on one knee and shouted, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
The sound of the mountain and tsunami reverberated throughout Qiyuan City, and they had already communicated with everyone before, and at this time, everyone knew Zhu Can's decision, and no one objected, and everyone knelt down directly in front of them.
Of course, it is impossible for someone to oppose it, Zhu Can's words are their beliefs.
