Yuan Shizhong's face was even more pale.

Is Zheng Zhipeng humiliating him? With this little capital in his hand, he still wants to fight for the world?

"The surname is Zheng, you have repeatedly insulted your grandfather Yuan, do you really think that I dare not kill you?"

Looking at Zheng Zhipeng's appearance of the old god, Yuan Shizhong was angry. He is also a figure in the Central Plains, and this lobbyist from Zheng Jun is so difficult to speak. His face hurt from the sting.

Even if he is the brother of Zheng Zhilong, who has become famous recently, Yuan Shizhong is also angry.

Yuan Dahong, who was standing in the room, took his knife out of the sheath and looked at Zheng Zhipeng with a fierce look, only to give an order from his uncle.

Zheng Zhipeng laughed as if he had seen a farce, "Why did General Zheng make this gesture?" You are desperate, it's not that my eldest brother thinks you are a good name, and you want to come to promote the general, why should I, Zheng Zhipeng, go through this ice and snow? ”

Zheng Zhilong took a fancy to Yuan Shizhong, it was not because Yuan Shizhong had fallen into a 'desperate situation', it was because this person had his advantages.

Compared with Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others who were like the peasant rebel army in the early years, Yuan Shizhong was the real peasant rebel army in history textbooks. In the thirteenth year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty (1640), there was a great drought in Beizhili, the Central Plains and Qilu, the wheat was not harvested, the autumn was plagued by insects (locusts), and the hungry people carried the road in winter, and the hunger was all over the field. Yuan Shizhong then raised the banner of righteousness. Wherever the soldiers went, they killed corrupt officials and corrupt officials, opened warehouses to relieve the hungry people, and won the support of the hungry people. (Personally, I think Li Zicheng's military discipline at this time should be good, after all, he already has a clear goal of struggle - to fight the world and sit on the country, so how can he not invite the people to buy the hearts of the people?) Claims such as "killing one person is like killing my father, and adulterating one person is like adulterating my mother" should not be too obvious. And the original old rogue was also killed by Hong Chengchou)

It is Zhu Ming's gentry himself who is saying: Yuan Shizhong, a thief in Kaizhou, crossed Henan from Kaocheng, traveled between Liang and Song, did not kill people, did not plunder women, and was also one of the strangers in the group of thieves.

So much so that when Xiao Yuanying's name came to Zheng Zhilong's ears, it was quite good. It can be called a disciplined and benevolent division that has not committed any crimes. The people of the Central Plains even called Yuan Shizhong's team "Buddha soldiers"!

Zheng Zhilong was Spartan at that time.

In the context of the era at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there is still such a strange thing that is not stained by sludge?

If you carefully analyze what this man has done since the incident, it is no wonder that he will be praised by the gentry officials, who seem to have killed a lot of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but in fact he is very merciful to the gentry class. If there is someone with a slightly better reputation, it can be said that Qiu has not committed any crimes.

Such an act can naturally get a good evaluation from the mouths of the gentry and bureaucracy.

In other words, if a figure like Yuan Shizhong could have started ten years earlier, it was really possible to become a long time with Li Zicheng.

This kind of talent is a 'hero in troubled times' in the real sense, and his personal values are obviously more in line with the definition of "Ming monarch and hero" in the context of modern society. At least then Li Yan would clearly choose the latter between Li Zicheng and Yuan Shizhong.

It's a pity that Yuan Shizhong missed the best opportunity. King Li Chuang has put aside the pickling of the year and successfully transformed. It is that he has not yet completely reconciled with the gentry class, so his foundation has never been consolidated locally.

But if Li Zicheng can really sit firmly in the dragon chair in Beijing, under the general trend, the gentry class in the north can only be helpless to obey. It also ensured the complete overwhelm of the gentry class, the foundation of civil politics, by the imperial power at the beginning of the founding of the country.

But that's just if, and the least valuable thing in the world is if.

The fact is that Li Zicheng didn't have time to consolidate his foundation and make up for his biggest flaw, and the Manchu Tartars entered the customs under the leadership of Wu Sangui. It was like a surging tide that easily destroyed Li Zicheng's seemingly majestic beach sandcastle.

Then the Manchus, who had reached an agreement with the gentry class in the Central Plains, stole the Chinese artifact at a very small to extreme cost.

That's how this original history is.

"What else is there to give up the general? Now only my eldest brother is willing to give the general a future. After this village, there is no such shop. ”

Yuan Dahong snorted coldly when he heard this, "That's a good thing, isn't it just to take our brothers to be a substitute for the dead." "The Manchu Tartars broke through the border again, and they all went all the way to Qilu. How could Xiao Yuanying not know this news?

How many people have they met who fled south these days?

Zheng Zhilong called his brother to recruit their little Yuan Ying at this time, the purpose was very much, and he could think of it with his ass.

"Willing, willing, giving will be gained. The little general is in the picture. "Yuan Dahong is the number two person in Xiao Yuan Ying, and his age is not younger than Yuan Shizhong, but Yuan Shizhong is his uncle.

Zheng Zhipeng rolled his eyes in his heart, it was not that the situation was critical, Xiao Yuanying was needed to fill the crisis, why did Zheng Zhilong bother to recruit a bandit? No matter how good Xiao Yuanying's reputation is, it is also a bandit who kills officials, and he has a bad reputation for deception and deception, do you really think that Zheng Zhilong does not take the slightest risk?

It's not that Qilu officialdom is in a hurry, and it's impossible to endorse Zheng Zhilong's recruitment of Xiao Yuanying.

"Two generals, my eldest brother's conditions have been explained below, what is the choice, and I hope the general can think twice before acting. Don't miss out on the opportunity to regret it. ”

Zheng Zhipeng didn't say much, so he asked him to go to the court, and Yuan Dahong personally sent him to the dormitory to settle down. Turning back to the middle of Yuan Shi, many backbones of Xiao Yuan's camp had already gathered in the hall.

An old man with a talented appearance was talking with his beard, this person was not the military advisor of Xiao Yuanying, but a military leader. Guide to Germany, a decent showman. It's just that although the Ming Dynasty subsidized Xiucai, Xiucai was far inferior to lifting people. Otherwise, in this society, I only hear that there are poor and sour talents, why don't you see people say that there are poor sour people?

Lao Xiucai has been keeping to himself all his life, and he has earned a lot of fame by making museums for others. Although it is not rich, it is not worrying about eating and drinking. But the cruel reality forced him to be a thief, and he had to swing the thief's head, otherwise more than a dozen members of his family, young and old, would starve to death.

“…… Zheng Zhilong is the lord of Fujian Province, and he is in charge of the southeast sea trade, relying on the sea trade, the annual silver income is more than 10 million taels. That's a lot of money. He promised to give our army 100,000 taels of silver, as well as a lot of armor and food, which will definitely not be bad......"

Lao Xiucai very much hoped that Yuan Shizhong would agree. Because the Zheng family said that as long as Yuan Shizhong is willing to be recruited, it is okay to have official titles such as guerrilla and general, even many characters in the camp can all have a good background.

Although the current Ming Dynasty is getting worse, Zhu Ming is orthodox, Lao Xiucai has been a showman for most of his life under the Great Tomorrow, and Zhu Ming's official child still has a lot of weight in Lao Xiucai's heart.

And more importantly, the Zheng family can say that as long as Xiao Yuanying is recruited and the characters are willing, then they can help send the family members to Jiangnan and Lingnan, and you can point out a place to settle down. Give back the money to Tian!

Only then did Lao Xiucai feel that the temptation was not worse than that of the officials of the Ming Dynasty.

He is over half a hundred years old, and the loess is buried in his chest, what else can he live like? Aren't all the people counting on future generations? And whether the descendants will go to the stable Jiangnan to be stable, or stay in the Central Plains to be safe, the answer is not to be asked.

Of course, Lao Xiu can express his attitude in an almost blatant way, and the biggest reason is Xiao Yuanying's current predicament.

Yuan Shizhong didn't get angry when he heard this, but let out a long sigh, and people's hearts were scattered......
