Jinling, the Nanjing of later generations.

The original capital of the Ming Dynasty.

Xi Yingzhen shook his beard and talked eloquently, if it weren't for his appearance, it was too shabby, even if it was a little thoughtful, it would have a bit of the taste of a lupine scarf.

"Today, Liu Futong started in Yingzhou, and the defeat was also the first of Timur's 300,000 troops in Runan, and hundreds of millions of grains, grasses and ordnance were captured. With 200,000 troops, he swept through Henan, and the first confidant of this court was also in great trouble.

Xu Shouhui, Monk Peng attacked Luotian, occupied Xishui, and founded the country as the emperor, the second confidant of the imperial court.

Sesame Li, Zhao Junyong occupied Xuzhou and the surrounding counties, opened a warehouse to release grain, gathered tens of thousands of Yellow River workers, and the third henchman of the imperial court was also in great trouble. ”

"In this way, our Haozhou is not ranked high in the eyes of the imperial court!" Zhu Wu said with a smile, "But it's a good thing, at least it won't provoke the Mongolian emperor to destroy us first, and the early whirlpool will rot first!" ”

"What the general said is very true!" Xi Yingzhen nodded and said, "Now Haozhou is nothing more than a disease of ringworm to the imperial court. As long as you resist the partial division of the imperial court, occupy a corner of the land and have a few years of respite, you can go through the army and prepare for the attack! ”

Next to him, Monk Daoyan, who had not spoken, suddenly said, "Master, if the imperial court regards Haozhou as a big trouble, how should you deal with it?" ”

"I'm afraid that the imperial court will already be powerless at that time!" Xi Yingzhen said with a smile, "The previous dynasty rebelled, it was first against the land and then the world, and now Dayuan is directly against the world everywhere." The government can't kill it, the more you kill, the more powerful it becomes! ”

Zhu Wu sighed and said, "The people are not afraid of death, so why should they be afraid of death!" ”

His unintentional words just confirmed this era, or the entire history of China, why there are always people who resist one after another.

Xi Yingzhen had a smile on his face, "It is not surprising that there are civil uprisings in any dynasty and generation." But no matter which dynasty, the emperor's ministers will use both suppression and support, and try to protect the people from being affected by the war. But only this dynasty is different, this dynasty kills one place and one place, one city slaughters one city, and what I didn't want to fight back is forced to go back!

Moreover, the tyranny of Meng Yuan, the emperor lost his morality and regarded us and other southerners as ants, cattle and sheep, and he was very guarded, even if he was an official, he had to be low-eyed and first-class. In the past, it was the people's rebellion, and now it is the Shinong's industry and commerce that are rebelling together, even if the Dayuan soldiers are shocked by the ancient and modern, how long can it last if it loses the hearts of the people! ”

Dao Yan said again, "Qin lost his deer, and the world chased him." I'm afraid that when the time comes, the whole world will be a pot of porridge, and where should the Haozhou Army go? ”

Xi Yingzhen smiled and said nothing, looking at Zhu Wu,

Zhu Wu said with a smile, "At that time, there will be soldiers, food and territory, and the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth!" ”

"The general is smart, and he can understand it at one point!" Xi Yingzhen laughed.

Zhu Wu is a little proud, although he doesn't know history, but after all, he has received a modern education, and he still has a little smart and small vision.

At this time, Xi Yingzhen suddenly restrained his smile, stood up, and stared at Zhu Wu directly, "What does the general want to be in the world?" ”

What?

World!

I want the world!

What kind of joke, a commander with no more than a thousand soldiers, plus a monk and a Taoist priest, will be ashamed of the world? The world relies on fighting, not thinking.

Listening to Xi Yingzhen continue, "The general must not have a heart of self-indulgence, the old Taoist has traveled the world for forty years, and he has no other skills, and he looks at people's abilities!"

The general is less than the year of the weak crown, and he has led an army alone, and he is the son of the governor of Haozhou, and his future is unlimited. Moreover, it is a local person in Haozhou, when the official army is raging in Huaixi, the general ascends to the heights and shouts, he can do his best to win the Haozhou Qingzhuang Township Party, and the generals under his command can be single-minded, and the elite soldiers can be successful.

Also, the general, what is the most extraordinary thing about you? ”

Zhu Wu was stunned, "What? ”

"There is great goodness in the heart, and there is love and generosity!" Xi Ying really said, "For example, today's military leaders are all reckless and vulgar. When he first started the army, he was fashionable and could be called a hero, if he was a prince, he would be exposed in his true form, and the people would be fished and fleshed. Even if he is called the king and the emperor, he is just a monkey and a crown. Yu Huangchao, Zhu Wen and others, no different ears.

The general said that he was born a beggar, and he couldn't hide it from others. Which beggar-born person can say that the people are suffering and the people are suffering! What beggar-born man can train such neat soldiers! What beggar-born man can have the vision of a general! The old way observed, the general's speech and demeanor, and the movement and stillness all have everyone's demeanor. has far-sighted wisdom to advance and retreat, and is well-versed in literature and reasoning, and must be a famous teacher, and everyone is a child.

The time and place are favorable, the general has been secretly ready, and Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty in the past, ............"

Xi Yingzhen is a lot of it, Zhu Wu was completely stunned.

Do I have it really good?

It is often yourself who knows yourself. He didn't have any big ambitions since he was a child, and he was in his twenties, and he was just an ordinary life in a step-by-step manner. It is safe to say that it sounds good, and it is a lack of motivation to say that it is not good. To be precise, if you are self-aware, you are just a child of an ordinary person, an ordinary person.

When I came to this era, I never thought about the world. What does the world have to do with him, he is just a little flower child, who thinks about being full and living.

knew that when he met Zhu Chongba, he had hope for his dark days. Because of the help of the heavy eight, it can be an adult from a ghost. became a red scarf in a daze, and what he did was nothing more than to think that before Zhu's thighs made a fortune, he could live a little better.

As for what he wanted and what he wanted to do, Zhu Wu really hadn't thought about it. He was like a boat on the sea, wanting to stand still and wait for others to lead the way, but he didn't expect to be pushed forward by the waves again and again.

He has no ambitions, because he knows that this era has already chosen the true destiny. But when Xi Yingzhen said this, his originally stable heart suddenly rose waves.

The road ahead, where to go?

Zhu Wu was confused, his confusion fell in the eyes of others, like thinking. Squinting, frowning, smiling rather than smiling. With a bit of cynicism, some unfathomable.

This look fell in Dao Yan's eyes, and the monk sneered in his heart.

Demon Dragon, you have taken advantage of a moment of luck, but you can't take away someone else's true life!

At dawn, Zhu Chongba took his brothers who were willing to join the army with him, as well as the young men in the village, either pushing chicken carts or driving livestock, to Huangjue Temple.

As soon as Zhu Chongba and the others entered the temple, they saw bags of grain and boxes of valuable finances all moved out and placed in the courtyard waiting for them to be sent to Haozhou City.

Revisiting the old place, Zhu Chongba felt a lot of emotion. This Huangjue Temple, after all, is the place where he stayed for a few years and ate for a few years. Although he has not enjoyed any happiness here, he has not suffered any sin. But on the other hand, the house was raided in this temple because of him. Fortunately, the monks were all locked up by Zhu Wu, otherwise it would not be nice to meet.

"Brother Chong, is that Xiao Wu?" Xu Da was behind Zhu Chongba, looking at Zhu Wu, who was busy commanding the soldiers, and said.

"You can't shout in the army, you must call the commander!" Zhu Chongba said, "Tiande, brothers can't mess with the rules!" ”

Zhu Wu also saw them, especially when he saw Xu Da following Zhu Chongba's side, and immediately understood that this time he returned to his hometown, Zhu Chongba had already pulled up the team. Immediately, he strode over.

"The Commander ...... Your Excellency"

"Brother Heavy Bury Me Again!" Zhu Wu smiled, "There are no outsiders in front of me, what is your name!" As he spoke, he said to Xu Da, "Brother, you're here too!" ”

Xu Da smiled innocently, "I also came to join the army, and I will follow the heavy starling brother and the little ...... Commander! ”

"These are our brothers from childhood to adulthood!" Zhu Chongba pulled Zhu Wu to introduce them one by one.

Sure enough, who is looking for murder, Zhu Chongba's brothers are all tall and strong men. Although he is dressed as a peasant, his eyes are bright and full of spirit.

"Heavy starling!" Zhu Wu saw the brothers and said, "I'll bother you to bring people to transport these money and grain back to the city in a while!" ”

"Won't you come back with us?" Zhu Chongba asked.

"I heard that there is a group of smuggler salt dealers in Lijiapu in the north, hugging grass and beating rabbits, since they came out to let the brothers coach their hands, they will be cleaned up by the way, and they will collect more money and food!"

Subsequently, Zhu Wu ordered another twenty soldiers to Zhu Chongba, and led the men and horses to act separately.

To see Zhu Wu riding a mule and walking away with the soldiers, Xu Da said enviously, "Brother Chong, Xiao Wu is really majestic now!" ”

"Huh!" Zhu Chongba smiled and waved his hand, "Work!" ”

………

I don't know if I didn't sleep well last night, or if I thought too much.

Since he got up in the morning, Zhu Wu was panicked and his mind was in turmoil, but the sons and daughters under his command were full of morale.

Lijiapu in the north is a small village, and I heard from the monks in the temple that more than a dozen illegal salt dealers had gathered, and many lives were on their hands. Zhu Wu didn't want their money, no matter how well his brothers practiced, they never saw blood and were always a little worse, anyway, they all came out, so they practiced with them.

"The third child!" Zhu Wu beckoned, Guo Xing stumbled and pulled the reins, rode over, he continued, "Did the rangers let them out, according to the old soldiers of the battalion, you can't be sloppy!" ”

"I know that the fifth brother has been released a long time ago, and they are all good at riding under Li Sai." After Guo Xing finished speaking, he looked around and said in a low voice, "Brother, what did Xi Lao Dao mean yesterday, what did he say about the world?" ”

Yesterday, the Guo brothers were also at the dinner table, but even if they listened to the whole process, their eyes were black and they didn't understand anything.

"Nothing! You don't understand it! "Thinking of this, Zhu Wu's head hurts.

"I don't understand, but I think it makes sense for him to let the fifth brother let you occupy a city alone!" Guo Xing muttered, "Fifth brother, you don't know that you are in the camp every day, Haozhou City is about to be harmed by those people who are handsome!" ”

How could Zhu Wu not know that the Red Turban Army said that it was a righteous army, but this righteous word was the righteousness of righteousness, not the righteousness of righteousness. How good can the military discipline be, occupying Haozhou these days, there is no major problem, but there is harassment of the people every day, and I heard that the little daughter-in-law has harmed several.

"It's next to the streets of our big camp, and it's a bit like the way we used to live!" Guo Xing was still talking, "We are all locals, we must not harm the villagers, the neighbors also receive our affection, if we occupy a city, these villagers will definitely follow ......."

"Stop!" Zhu Wu suddenly made a loud voice.

Because just now, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of several flying figures in the distance.

Then, the rangers who were sent out ran desperately in this direction with their whips brandish.

"Enemy attack!"
