Chapter 465: Defeating the Strong with the Weak
Tang Dou walked out of the main hall quickly, only to see a thirty-three or four-year-old thin young man standing there in the courtyard outside the main hall, and there were five or six soldiers in cloth clothes standing beside him.
Tang Dou was about to step forward to untie Liu Bowen, but at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang rushed down the steps in front of him with a panicked face, and stumbled down the steps and almost didn't fall.
Tang Dou was stunned and stopped, not knowing what tricks this kid was going to play.
I saw Zhu Yuanzhang running to Liu Bowen quickly, hurriedly untying Liu Bowen, and loudly reprimanding the soldiers: "Didn't I tell you to ask Mr. Bowen for good words?" How dare you be so rude as to tie up your husband? ”
Several soldiers looked at each other and looked at the leading rebel who ran out behind Zhu Yuanzhang.
The little leader of the volunteer army came out of a village with Zhu Yuanzhang, and he was also a clever person, and when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang say this, he hurriedly prostrated on the ground and confessed with a panicked face: "Wu Guogong forgives the crime, it is the last general who ignored Wu Guogong's military order, and the last general is willing to be punished." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang loosened Liu Bowen's bindings and snorted angrily at the little leader: "Military orders can be ignored, what's the use of me leaving you, come here, drag him out and behead him." ”
Tang Dou, who was standing on the steps, didn't expect Zhu Yuanzhang to come with such a hand, so he couldn't help but open his mouth wide, and simply stood there to watch how Zhu Yuanzhang performed.
As for whether the little leader was really beheaded, just based on Zhu Yuanzhang's performance, presumably most of the anger in Liu Bowen's heart has disappeared.
is worthy of a generation of heroes, I'm afraid this kid has already thought about acting in this scene from the time he ordered Liu Bowen to be arrested, right?
Sure enough, Liu Bowen, who was rubbing his wrists, saw several soldiers rushing up, dragging the little leader who had captured him outside, and hesitated for a moment and stretched out his hand to stop: "Wait." ”
Stopping those soldiers, Liu Bowen turned to Zhu Yuanzhang and asked, "Presumably you are the Duke of Wu in their mouths." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly clenched his fists: "It's Zhu Yuanzhang below, Mr. Wronged." ”
Liu Bowen snorted and said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Traitor, you committed rebellion and dared to hijack the court officials, what crime should you be guilty of?" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, looked at Liu Bowen and clenched his fists and said, "Sir, dare to ask which court is the court that Mr. is talking about?" Is it the court of our Han people? Or the court of the Mongol Tartars? ”
Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang thought that he would definitely ask Liu Bowen speechless, but he didn't expect Liu Bowen to glare at him angrily, and shouted: "Ignorant boy, do you really think that you can eliminate the trouble by raising swords and soldiers?" Just rely on how these few people in your hands can confront the Mongols, and if the war continues, it is not our Han people who are unlucky? Look back and see for yourself how many women and children have died in the chaos because of your fatigue since you started the rebellion. Don't you feel any shame in the face of them? ”
In the face of Liu Bowen's question, Zhu Yuanzhang stiffened his neck, glared at Liu Bowen and asked, "What should I do according to Mr.'s plan?" Should we Han people be cattle and horses for the Mongols? ”
Liu Bowen smiled at Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "Nothing in the world can be assimilated, there are small differences, seek great harmony, our Han people have a large population, and sooner or later there will be a day when the Mongols will be assimilated." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed out loud: "Seek common ground while reserving small differences, so why don't you let the Mongols adapt to us?" Mr. also said, we Han people have a large population, why do we want to use time to influence the Mongols. I dare to ask sir, since we have a large Han population, why don't we stand up and drive the Mongols out of our Central Plains with the weapons in our hands, but we have to endure humiliation? ”
Liu Bowen paused for a moment and argued: "The Han people are weak, and the time is not yet ripe, and resisting at this time is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and stretched out his hand to hug Liu Bowen's shoulder, and teased: "I thought that Mr. was stubborn and willing to be an eagle dog of Mongolian Tatars, but it turned out that Mr. had already had an objection in his heart, but he just thought that the time was not yet ripe." If I had known this, I wouldn't have asked my husband to invite his parents, wife and children to Haozhou. ”
"What?" Liu Bowen was shocked, stared at Zhu Yuanzhang for a long time, and then three words popped out of his mouth: "You are shameless." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed, hugged Liu Bowen and walked towards Tang Dou on the steps, and said with a smile: "Sir, you said that the time is not ripe, but I think this is the time." I invited Mr. to come this time, just to ask him to be my military advisor, and I also ask him not to refuse. ”
"To be a military advisor for you? You sent someone thousands of miles away to arrest me, just to ask me to be your military advisor? Liu Bowen's eyes widened.
There are still such military advisors? Back then, Liu Bei invited Zhuge Liang out of the mountain, and he also went to Longzhong to visit the thatched house in person, you were good, and sent a few soldiers to tie me up indiscriminately, not only that, but also tied up my parents, wife and children. Where are you inviting a military advisor, you are simply kidnapping, and it is the overlord who is forced to bow down.
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed, hugged Liu Bowen's shoulder and said, "Don't blame me, sir, I have no choice but to do it." Now that the military situation is urgent, I am afraid that my husband will refuse to make this decision. Just now Sir said that the time is not yet ripe to resist the tyranny of the Yuan Dynasty, sir, let me introduce you to a figure that you would never have imagined, and you will know why I said that this is a good opportunity to oppose the Yuan Dynasty. ”
Liu Bowen sighed helplessly, his parents, wife and children have been controlled by Zhu Yuanzhang, even if Liu Bowen has a clever plan, he can only be at the mercy of others at this time, but he is thinking of a way to get out quickly, in his opinion, Zhu Yuanzhang has not dried up, and the rebellion is pure nonsense.
At this time, Liu Bowen didn't know about the personal expedition of Tuhuan Timur, otherwise he probably wouldn't have made a deal with Zhu Yuanzhang anyway.
Although Liu Bowen was an official in Hangzhou, Hangzhou was far from most of the capital, and Liu Bowen's official position was not high, and the Mongolians would not easily mention such military events to the Han bureaucrats under their rule.
Tang Dou walked down the steps, greeted Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen, and arched his hand at Liu Bowen with a smile: "I have long admired the name of Liu Bowen for a long time, and I am very fortunate to see you today." ”
Liu Bowen subconsciously arched his hand with Tang Dou, and said suspiciously: "Dare to ask who you are?" ”
Even Liu Bowen himself didn't know that he still had a reputation for being clever, so how could he not be puzzled.
Liu Bowen looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, he thought that Zhu Yuanzhang would introduce him on his behalf, but he didn't expect that Zhu Yuanzhang just smiled at him, and his eyes immediately turned to Tang Dou. (To be continued.) )
