Section XXIV

Lin Feng snorted, shook his head and smiled, "Old Ma, Ben Shuai just said, everything is on the table, you don't have to go around with me," he smiled and stretched out a finger, "Ben Shuai will be honest with you, I only have one way on your side: that is, all of them are incorporated into my Han army, and there are no conditions for listening to the editors, and Ben Shuai also dares to guarantee here that the official position reward is a lot, in short, he will never treat you badly!" ”

Ma Dazhuzi looked at Lin Feng expressionlessly, was silent for a long time, and suddenly stood up with a sneer, shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, "Then what are you talking about?!" Let's goβ€”" He led a few horse thieves to his feet.

Lin Feng also responded with a sneer, and did not hold back, turning his head to the Cao family brothers who were sitting upright and motionless, "What do you mean by Cao Clan's Kunzhong?!" ”

"Boss Caoβ€”can there be good people in the fucking government?!" Ma Da Pole was a little flustered, and hurriedly persuaded, "This Lin Dashuai is very cunning, don't fall for him!" ”

The boss of the Cao family, who was sitting at the front, remained silent, slowly raised his head, glanced at Ma Da pole, and said slowly, "I...... I think this Lord Lin is a good person!! ”

"Where's he? You don't know, he actually ......" Speaking of this, Ma Da Pole was suddenly stunned, to be honest, he really couldn't find any bad deeds in Lin Feng for a while, and hurriedly said at the moment, "What kind of heart does he have?" - You see that he sent millions of displaced people to our Liaodong, and it was clear that he was fighting for land and land with our Liaodong people, I said Lao Cao, don't blame my brother for not reminding you, if you go with him, then we Liaodong people will suffer a big loss, then it will be too late to regret it!! ”

"Old Ma, don't bluff, come, come, come, sit down and say slowly," Seeing that Ma Da Pole was out of shape, Lin Feng burst out laughing, turned his head to the Cao family brothers and said, "Lao Ma was half right just now - Ben Shuai really planned to let these poor poor people go into Liaodong to find something to eat," he stared at the Cao family brothers tightly, and said word by word, "The reason why Ben Shuai killed the Tartar Emperor in Beijing is that the first is to vent his anger for the Han people in our world, and the second is to find a way to live for the poor people in the world - and you have also seen it this winter." , Ben Shuai himself cut down on food and clothing, and even demolished the Jinluan Palace in the Forbidden City, just to save these poor people who are lonely and helpless, brothers, ......" Lin Feng looked awe-inspiring, looking left and right, "Tell me, Ben Shuai is so desperate to find trouble for himself, what benefits can he get?!" ”

The Cao brothers nodded in unison, and Boss Cao said deliciously, "That's right...... I'll just say you're a good person! ”

Lin Feng turned his head and looked at the pale Ma Da pole with contempt, "Old Ma, tell me, what will a person who does not hesitate to demolish the Jinluan Palace to relieve the people of Liaodong do?" - Another one, this land of Liaodong is vast and boundless, if Ben Shuai wants to settle these people, he must have trouble with the locals of Liaodong?! Seeing Ma Da Pole's depressed expression, Lin Feng slapped the table, pointed at Ma Da Pole's nose and scolded, "Ma Da Pole, this is you fucking forcing Lao Tzu to say ugly things - if you have to find death on your dog day, Lao Tzu will make a decision to fulfill your dog day, hehe, isn't it just six thousand iron horses?" Emperor Lao Tzu has cut it down, what kind of fucking immortal are you?! ”

"Hehe, brother of the Cao family, do you see it, the fox tail of this dog day is exposed!" Ma Da Pole smiled and pointed at Lin Feng, "You brothers have thought clearly, this kid is not a good bird!" ”

Boss Cao ignored him, turned his head and saluted Lin Feng, and said seriously, "Dashuai, if our people in Liaodong follow you, what are you going to do?!" ”

Lin Feng looked at the Cao family brothers with a smile, and said kindly, "If I say that I don't pay food, don't pay taxes, etc., which is a coaxing nonsense, Lao Cao, Ben Shuai told you the truth, at that time, those who are willing to eat food in your righteous army will be incorporated into the Han army, and those who are willing to live will go home separately - and the fields in Liaodong will be distributed according to the number of households in the population, and they will cultivate their own fields, in addition to garrisoning troops, one 'thief', and two to resist the Qing soldiers," he smiled and spread his hands and said frankly, "In short, that's it, I can't afford to give too many benefits, but I don't brag either, Ben Shuai did what he said - last year I told the people of Gyeonggi and Zhili that they would be exempt from tax for one year, and you went to inquire about it, and Ben Shuai asked them for a piece of wheat and a penny of silver?! ”

"I believe it!" Boss Cao spoke concisely, nodded and said, "But what about the less taxes and the homeless?!" ”

"I will collect as little tax as possible, in short, so that the poor people can live," Lin Feng agreed to this request, "The displaced people don't do your Liaodong people's business, I sold a lot of belongings last year, bought farm tools, seeds and livestock for these poor people, and recently released relief, now the seeds have been sown, and after a while, there will be a harvest, and the days will go on!" ”

"Good!" Boss Cao stopped instigating, turned his head to look at Ma Da pole, and said solemnly, "Ma Da shopkeeper, let's live and not rebel!" ”

Lin Feng secretly praised in his heart, this Cao family brother seems to be demented, but in fact, he is round on the outside and square on the inside, and he is very determined in his heart, and he is definitely not a person without opinions. At this moment, his heart was relieved, looking at the uncertain Ma Da pole, and said leisurely, "Old Ma, I understand your thoughts - this idea is very good, but it is not practical, according to the current situation, your king of Liaodong can't do it, slow to say I don't allow it, if the Qing court comes back to his senses, it will definitely look for you to open the knife, and with your current situation, if you really fight, you can't get a foothold in Liaodong at all!" ”

Ma Dazhu's fair skin turned red, and when he heard Lin Feng's words, he viciously provoked, "I have six thousand children, how do you know that Lao Tzu can't stand?!" ”

"I know your style of play: it's probably a few old nests in the deep mountains, and then attack everywhere, fight if you win, run away if you win, as long as the horse is fast and the knife is hard, no one can do anything to you - am I right?"

Seeing that Ma Da was silent, Lin Feng continued, "Yes, this guerrilla warfare method is indeed a headache, but a headache is a headache, and it may not be impossible to deal with it," Lin Feng smiled slightly, and pointed at the Han army behind him, "Have you seen it?" - My team is full of muskets and cannons, if you really want to fight against Ben Shuai, I will mobilize the people of Liaodong to repair the bunker and artillery tower with the help of the Cao brothers, and then fortify the wall and clear the wilderness, and besiege you layer by layer......"

"Is there an unbreakable bunker in this world?!" Ma Da said angrily.

"Of course, there are no big and impregnable bunkers - but the problem is that it takes time to build a bunker, do you see my cavalry? How sure do you think you're fighting them?! As long as you rub under any of the bunkers, they will come from all directions to reinforce them," Lin Feng laughed, "And this does not include the troops of the Cao family brothers, his troops will be the children of the people of Liaodong in the future, do you have the confidence to fight with the entire Liaodong people to the end?" ”

"I can't beat it...... I can still walk! ”

"Let's go? - Where does the aisle go? Lin Feng was stunned and said, "To the east is the sea, and to the south is the Great Wall, which is my territory, where densely populated villages and villages are jointly defended; To the north is the territory of the Tartars, and it is deep in the mountains and old forests, can you beat the Orion tribes such as the Oroqen? And to the west is the Mongolian steppe - are you easy to bully as a Mongolian man?! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Old Ma, to be honest, you were just dragged down by this 'six thousand army' - if you only have a few hundred good and strong hands, drilling around in the forests of Liaodong, I really can't do anything about you in a few years, but now, hehe...... " Lin Feng glanced at him and teased, "It's difficult to deal with so many people, let's talk about this grain supply problem, you can't hide your whereabouts, hehe, if you can't even reach a team of thousands of people, do you really think I am a dead man?!" ”

Ma Dazhu suddenly let out a long sigh, and the shrewdness, cunning, and ferocity of Shicai seemed to be far away from him in an instant, and a pair of eyes suddenly lost all their vitality, as if all the ambitions, wishes, and hopes in his heart suddenly fell into the void.

Lin Feng looked at this handsome man with pity, and said kindly, "Brother Ma, is there only one way to go in this life?" The man is ambitious in all directions, and Ben Shuai is not pretending to be perfunctory, your brother is brave and strategic, it is really a rare general......" He suddenly stood up, solemnly bowed down to the big pole of the horse, "If there is chaos today, Shenzhou is in trouble, and the contemptible big man Lin Feng, I implore Brother Ma to help me and return the people of the world to a peaceful and prosperous world!! ”

Ma Da Pole was startled, although he was witty and deep, but in the end he was born recklessly, how could he have seen such a simple method, and hurriedly helped him at the moment, "Don't dare, don't dare...... It's heavy, it's heavy...... Brother is a horse thief leader, how can he afford to be ......"

"Heroes don't ask about their origins," Lin Feng took the opportunity to stand up, turned his head and pointed to a few of his own personal soldiers, "Ermazi, winter melon head, come out - tell Ma Ye what you did with me before?!" ”

"Master Ma, I followed Yang on the sea in Zhejiang before joining the army...... The general is looking for food to eat, and he is doing a business with no capital! ”

"Hui Dashuai, Ma Ye, I used to be a soldier on the Tartar side, and later followed General Sun Sike to the Han Dynasty!"

"Hehe, Brother Ma, did you hear that?!" Lin Feng patted Ma Da Pole's shoulder affectionately, "My background in the army is not good, but since we have come together, they are brothers in life and death - if you don't believe it, you can ask them, when did Lao Tzu dislike them?" - Nuo, Er Mazi used to be a Qing soldier, you ask him, is Lao Tzu in the same pot when he eats, and is Lao Tzu a sentry when he sleeps? ”

"The big handsome is too worried, Ma has no such heart......" Ma Da Gong saluted respectfully, and then asked uneasily, "I don't know the big handsome...... If I wait for the effect, how is the boss going to be placed?! ”

"Old Ma, you are a hero, and we are not ambiguous with you," Lin Feng pointed to the rebel troops opposite, "If you surrender, I will set up the Sixth Army of the Han Cavalry, you are the commander of the Sixth Army, and the Cao family brothers will be your deputies or be the brigade commander below-but you can't take your old team, you can take them-" Lin Feng turned his hand and pointed to the column of Han cavalry behind him with strict appearance and complete armor, "And before that, according to the rules of our Han army, You officers must also go to Beijing Mazhuang for martial arts training for four months before you can take up your post! ”

"'Martial arts'?" Trained'? Ma Da was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lin Feng suspiciously.

"Yes, you see my troops, those cavalry must know how to use muskets and fight with artillery in addition to mounted archery!" Lin Feng said solemnly, "Old Ma, you will be a serious general in the future, but can you write?" Can you read the classified military newspaper? Do you know how to look at the map? Do you know how to use the musket array? Do you know how many types of cannons there are? And how far can the farthest one hit? How powerful? ……”

This series of "do you know" asked Ma Dazhu, whose face was blue and white, and he was speechless.

"So, you have to learn these basics before you can take office - and before you take office, I have to give you the rank of general, the military flag and the general number of the lieutenant general, so that your troops can be regarded as a proper regular army of the Han Dynasty!!"

"Hi...... What a hassle ......" Before Ma Da could speak, a horse thief leader behind him couldn't help but mutter.

Lin Feng looked as usual, shook his head and smiled, "If this handsome man gives you a short benefit now, can you?" - We are all cheerful men, and the so-called brothers still settle accounts! He smiled at Ma Da Pole, "Let's spread it out and say, if you don't let you lead the old team, you won't give you the opportunity to rebel and drag the team to escape - you know this kind of thing, there is nothing to taboo, General Shi Lang in the Han Army, General ** Sheng, and Sun Sike, Zhao Liangdong, etc., are like this, except for the other generals of Ben Shuai, no one can make an exception, so it is a benefit, rather than let our generals have a heart disease, it is better to plug this opening from the beginning, we are doing it here above board, there is no need to hide it in the armpits!" In the future, there will be no dirty things to kill heroes and hide all the birds - don't you say? ”

Ma Da nodded slowly, and said sincerely, "Da Shuai speaks...... Hey! It's really straightforward! ”

"And the purpose of training you is to teach you how to fight a modern war with muskets and artillery, how to be a good officer, and the most important thing here is to educate you to abide by military discipline!" Lin Feng said slowly, "Lao Ma, I will arrange rewards for you and your brothers when you go back, you can rest assured, gold and silver, Zhuangzi, fields, furniture and servants are indispensable, even if I am in the military camp in the future, I will not owe you food and salary, and I will also prepare military prostitutes for you, so please respect yourself, those previous problems of robbing houses and houses must be corrected by Lao Tzu, if you violate military law, no matter who you are, you will be the first ghost-headed knife!! ”

Ma Da raised his head and said, "Don't look down on me and other brothers too much, let's say that there is such a good reward, but there are not so many rewards, this military discipline can be guarded by others, can't Lao Tzu keep it?!" ”

"Well, that's right, you will know when you arrive in Zhili, in our Han territory, officers are the most face-saving professions, no matter where you go, others have to look up," Lin Feng sighed slightly, "In the future, you will all be high-ranking officials of my Han court, I just hope you don't have to ruin this reputation!" ”

Ma Da stared straight at Lin Feng, his face was full of anger, he suddenly took a step back, pulled out his saber violently, and shouted loudly, "Draw the knife-"

The horse thieves behind him were a little confused, so they pulled out their knives in a daze. For a while, the negotiation venue was like snow, and the armies on both sides were shocked, and they all thought that the negotiations had broken down, and the two sides were starting, and the cavalry on both sides was surging, and they were almost about to let go of their horses and sprint.

Although Lin Feng was frightened in his heart, his face was still calm as usual, he pushed away Li Ergou who was blocking in front of him, and quietly looked at Ma Da Pole.

"Dashuai is optimistic!" Ma Da pole raised his left tail finger and pressed it on the table, raised the long knife violently, and suddenly slashed it down, and under the blood rushed wildly, he cut off his tail finger when he landed. And the horse thieves behind him did not hesitate, and cut off their fingers in the same way. For a while, the open space was full of severed fingers, and the table of the Eight Immortals was covered with blood, which was shocking.

"Ma Xiaoying swears here today that she will be loyal to the Han family Lin from now on, if there is any disloyalty in the future, it will be so!" Ma Da pole raised his left hand, which was still gushing with blood, and swore an oath in public. Seeing this, the horse thieves behind him also swore an oath.

With a "snap", Lin Feng lightly knocked Li Ergou with a chestnut, "What are you doing in a daze?" - Why don't you go and bandage the brothers?! ”

"Hey...... I finally know why you keep calling yourself 'Ma Da Pole'! Taking advantage of Ma Xiaoying's bandage, Lin Feng squatted down and teased, "This name is indeed ...... Ahem, ahem, it's so pretty......"

Seeing Ma Xiaoying's expression of shame and anger, Lin Feng knew that he had a strong temper, and hurriedly smiled, "Xiaoma, are Ling Zun and Ling Tang still alive?" ”

"Dashuai, my father and mother have passed away a long time ago!" Ma Xiaoying looked up in amazement, not understanding why Lin Feng suddenly asked this.

"Oh, since Lingzun Lingtang is gone, it's better to be like this, since you voted for me as the master, then today Ben Shuai will be the master to change your name," Lin Feng groaned slightly, "Remove the 'small' word in the middle, how about you call Ma Ying in the future?!" β€”β€”In the Ming Dynasty, there was a general named Mu Ying, who had outstanding military achievements and was rich and old, which is a good luck! ”
