0833 The heart has changed
To put it bluntly, the Denglai Rebellion was just a general outbreak of many internal problems in the Ming Dynasty. It's just that it turned out very badly!
Liu Pei said in a deep voice: "Lao Kong, we don't talk darkly, just from the battle between the two armies at night, you can see the gap between the two armies!" So you are not my opponent, and it is impossible to be an opponent of the imperial army! Stop it soon! If it really doesn't work, I can send you overseas to be a rich man, how about it? ”
Kong Youde stared at Liu Pei's eyes and said, "I believe you can do it!" But what about my brothers? ”
Liu Pei was silent again! Liu Pei could let a few people go, but most of the rebels couldn't let them go. Otherwise, the imperial court concerned about this matter will definitely investigate Liu Pei. And Liu Pei's strength is not strong enough to turn against the imperial court.
Liu Pei thought about it and said, "I have another suggestion. You knew I was a businessman when you and I met, so I had some connections at sea. I also have a few friendships with the red-eyed dragon king who is in the limelight on the sea now, and I can write a letter to you. You take the letter, no matter how many people he can contain. But I'm afraid that you won't be able to return to Daming in this life, how about it? ”
Kong Youde looked at Liu Pei for a long time before saying, "Brother Liu, I believe you really want to help me." But I don't want to go overseas and be a pirate! The eldest husband is alive, he can't be knighted, and he never wants to be a pirate! ”
Liu Pei knew that there was nothing to persuade at this time. Kong Youde has already made up his mind in his heart, not only does he not want to work for Da Ming at all, but now he wants to be the king of his own territory! Maybe he also saw that Daming was in turmoil, and wanted to take advantage of the chaos and try to compete in the world!
Thinking of this, Liu Pei also lost his mind. Originally, Liu Pei also wanted to accept these people and let them open up in Southeast Asia. It seems that Kong Youde's heart is no longer the person who was dedicated to the country at the beginning!
But that's normal. People's hearts always change with experience and circumstances! What's more, Kong Youde has experienced so much, and it is normal for his mind to have some changes. Thinking of this, Liu Pei also cooled down, and said lightly to Kong Youde: "Old Kong, it seems that you have made up your mind." Then I won't persuade you. But
There are two things I want you to remember. ”
Kong Youde stared at Liu Pei with interest and said, "What two things? As long as I wasn't persuaded to surrender, I'd have remembered. ”
Liu Pei said: "First of all, if you are defeated, as long as you find a way to escape to me, I can still arrange for you to go overseas." I don't dare to say whether I can lead the troops to fight, but it's still okay to be a rich man and be too safe and old. ”
Kong Youde smiled and shook his head, and said, "I remember." And what about the second thing? ”
Liu Pei stared at Kong Youde's eyes, and said word by word: "The second thing is not to cast tartar!" No matter what you do, we're still kind of friendly. But if you cast for tartar, then there will be no friendship at all! If you meet again when the time comes, it will be your life and death! ”
Kong Youde laughed and said, "Cast Tartar? How could I cast a tartar? I don't know how many Tartars have died in my hands, how can they tolerate me? ”
Liu Pei listened to Kong Youde's words and did not express his opinion. He knew that Kong Youde was telling the truth at this time. But when he is in a desperate situation, maybe his mind will change, right? What's more, there are high-ranking officials in addition to desperate lives! When that happens, he probably won't hesitate!
After listening to Kong Youde, Liu Pei nodded and said: "The words have been spoken, and the love of the old man is here!" You and I will go back and prepare for war. ”
But Kong Youde said with a smile: "I have wrestled with you before, and I found that you are just brute force." I wonder if you've grown now? ”
Liu Pei understood what Kong Youde meant, probably wanting to take himself. When they wrestled with Kong Youde in the past, they definitely wanted to let him. After all, Liu Pei is a big financier, so you have to coax him to be happy! Now it's a battle between the two armies, and it would be great if you won the opposing manager! As for friendship, there is not much to care about between life and death!
But Liu Pei had no intention of going alone with him. Liu Pei's strength lies in the fact that he has a system. This system provides him with soldiers, weapons, food, and other resources. As long as every day passes, Liu Pei's strength will increase by one point, so why should Liu Pei be brave?
Liu Pei slowly reached out and took out a short gun from the saddle bag and held it in his hand, pointing to the sky. Then he said, "Old Kong, do you recognize what this is?" ”
Kong Youde's pupils shrank, and his smiling expression disappeared immediately! He said tentatively, "Looks like a shrunken firebolt? But it doesn't seem to be on the arquebus, huh? ”
Liu Pei directly pulled the trigger, and the short gun in his hand immediately made a loud noise! I was so shocked that a few people were looking for you, and they all jumped a few times before they quieted down.
Liu Pei looked at Kong Youde's shocked gaze and said, "I've never seen this kind of self-generated fire, right?" I've never seen such a short firecracker, have you? There are still two more in this saddle bag, do you want to try it? ”
Kong Youde's eyes swept back and forth between Liu Pei's hand and the saddlebag a few times, and suddenly laughed and said, "Then go back separately!" When we get back, let the soldiers have a full meal, and after noon, we will go to war!" ”
After speaking, Kong Youde took the lead in turning the war horse, and ran all the way to the direction of the formation without looking back. Liu Pei suppressed the idea of giving Kong Youde a shot in the back, and also turned around and returned to the team. The two sides are separated by miles. They each began to bury their pots and cook.
If you don't look at the soldiers on both sides, the smoke and clouds floating in the sky complement each other a little, and they look beautiful and peaceful. But that quiet didn't last long.
Liu Pei sat on the pony, took the lunch sent by the guards, broke the flatbread and threw it into the soup, and ate it without a bite. To be honest, Liu Pei was reluctant to start a war with Kong Youde in his heart!
This is not to say that Liu Pei misses the old love, but because Liu Pei does not like to fight civil wars! Liu Pei always believed that if the infighting of the Chinese was not so strong, the whole earth would already be under the rule of China!
Since ancient times, countless mad overlords, famous ministers and brave generals have taken ruling this continent as their lifelong ideal! But when they finally succeeded, they wanted to turn their eyes outward, only to find that they didn't have the energy to expand anymore!
Besides, China's continent is big enough to almost accommodate their ambitions. Perhaps it is for this reason that China's foreign colonial movement has not developed!
