…

Liang Hongyu's shouting continued until the second watch.

This made those men who understood the things of men and women all shocked Cai Ying's good health, and made those women who understood the things of men and women all wondered how Cai still could be so strong, if he could personally understand how good it would be, so that those who didn't understand the things of men and women couldn't help but wonder what kind of punishment Liang Hongyu had gone through to cry out for so long?

At the time of the second watch, the girl who was accompanied by the Liang family, that is, Zhishan, who grew up with Liang Hongyu since childhood, whispered, "Official, lady, it's already the second watch." ”

Hearing the reminder of the best, the room slowly died down.

After a while, Liang Hongyu's extremely weak voice came out from inside, "Perfection, beauty, you ...... Come in and serve. ”

After listening to Liang Hongyu's summons, Zhishancai and another girl who was accompanied by the Liang family, Zhimei, pushed open the door and went in to wait for Cai Ying and Liang Hongyu to get up.

Yesterday, Cai was still fine, and he could cooperate with the Liang family to hold this wedding.

Not today.

Yesterday has been delayed for a day, so today's army has to set off on the fourth watch, trying to catch up on the time lost yesterday.

It is precisely because of this that Cai Yi and Liang Hongyu, the newcomers, got up.

After eating something simply, Cai still left the Liang family with Liang Hongyu, Zhishan, and Zhimei master and servant - for fear of delaying time, Shen Yi helped the Liang family to accompany the ninety-nine helpless and Liang Hongyu wanted to bring things, Cai still sent someone back to the ship last night, and at the same time, Cai still asked the Liang family to prepare nine pigs, nine cows, and ninety-nine sheep to send to the boat for the soldiers of the Jinwu Army to have fun.

Therefore, this morning, Cai still and the others traveled lightly, and they rode back to the dock.

In this way, it was only a pillar of incense time, and Cai still returned to the dock.

No, as soon as Cai Yi and the others arrived at the dock, they saw that Shen Yi had organized a lot of people to rush hundreds of livestock to work the army.

Seeing that Shen Yi was so attentive, Cai Yi's eyes moved, and then he called Chai Jin to him, and whispered, "Send two people to find out the past of this Shen Zhifu for me, I want all his ironclad evidence of violations of law and discipline, and then keep an eye on this Shen Zhizhou's every move." ”

Chai Jin didn't ask anything, so he answered, "No!" ”

Liang Hongyu, who was beside Cai Ying, hesitated for a moment and asked Cai Ying, "Aren't the officials ready to let him go?" ”

Cai still looked at Shen Yi and said, "I took you from him, and let him lose so much gold and silver, these two bad breaths, but they can't be swallowed, and this Lord Shen is not an ordinary person, he can really be able to stretch and bend, with my years of experience in watching people, all this kind of person is not so easy to dismiss, besides, the heart of harming people is indispensable, the heart of preventing people is indispensable, and being careful can sail the ship of ten thousand years." ”

Cai still said leisurely, "This Shen Zhizhou had better admit it honestly this time, otherwise I will definitely make his intestines repent." ”

……

Hangzhou City.

Ever since the Fang La rebels breached this place a dozen days ago, it has become a hell on earth, especially for the scholars and bureaucrats.

Because of the unforgettable hatred for the scholar bureaucracy, all the scholars and bureaucrats were caught by the Fang La rebels, or their stomachs were pulled out, or their limbs were cut off, or put into oil pots, or shot with arrows, they could not die well, and their families were also treated extremely cruelly - the men were brutally killed, and the women were robbed by the Fang La rebels.

As for the wealthy landlord class, they were also dealt a very fatal blow - soon after the Fang La Yi army entered the city, they carried out a carpet robbery of the city of Hangzhou, which was called "raising donations to raise military expenses".

So much so that the smell of blood was everywhere in Hangzhou, and innocent people smelled the lingering smell of blood and had nightmares over and over again......

The former Hangzhou prefect's yamen, now the temple of the Fangla rebels.

A swarthy middle-aged man in his forties said bitterly, "Holy Father, we must not continue to kill and loot like this, otherwise the big thing will definitely fail!" ”

This swarthy middle-aged man is named Bao Kang, he is the fifth grandson of Bao Zheng, a famous minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, he has had different ambitions since he was a child, and he is extremely indignant about the politics of the Song Dynasty, corrupt officials are rampant, and taxes are heavy.

Bao Kang traveled to lecture in his youth and made a lot of friends, and Fang La was one of his close friends.

After Fang La's uprising, he personally served as the generalissimo of the rebel army, and Bao Kang served as the military division and deputy marshal.

Therefore, on the bright side, Bao Kang is the number two person in Fang La's righteous army, the number one strategist of Fang La, and the close right-hand man of Fang La.

But—

Now Bao Kang and Fang La have a disagreement - a serious disagreement.

Bao Kang believes that if the rebel army wants to become stronger and bigger, it must not be so exterminated by the scholarly bureaucratic class and the rich landlord class, because no matter who does the country, it must use the scholarly bureaucratic class and the rich landlord class to govern the world.

And Fang La also had his own insistence, he said, "The reason why we can come together, the reason why we can gather millions of people in just a few months to divide the southeast, is because we have a common enemy, this enemy is those Great Song officials who exploited us and mutilated us, and if I don't kill them, how can I face those subjects who have hoped for me?" ”

Fang La said again, "If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, now we have millions of people, and we will build a country in the future, we need money everywhere, and if we don't desperately raise military expenses, what will you let me do?" ”

Fang La didn't actually say some words, he said in his heart, "If I don't kill the officials and the rich landlords, those people who have already killed the red-eyed parishioners will definitely overthrow me and replace them with a holy prince who can take them to continue to vent the resentment that has accumulated in their hearts for a year or two, so whether I want to or not, this killing must continue, at least temporarily." ”

This is actually one of the reasons why Fang La did not accept the Northern Song Dynasty court's recruitment, because he didn't dare, as long as he dared to accept the emperor and the imperial court Zhao'an, who had disappointed and hated the people of the southeast, these people in the southeast who had already killed him would definitely cut him into meat sauce.

Of course, Fang La himself was actually unwilling to accept Zhao Ji and the Northern Song Dynasty's recruitment.

Figure it out!

After accepting Zhao Ji and the Northern Song Dynasty's recruitment, he was probably just a six- or seven-grade petty military attache like Song Jiang.

He now has a million people, and there will be more and more.

Zhao Song only has a lot of troops, and it is almost the same as what he has.

In another three or five months, he would have twice as many troops as Zhao Song.

In this case, he and Zhao Ji crossed the river and ruled as the emperor of the north and south, is it not too much?

And as long as he can get his wish, then he can enjoy endless glory and wealth in the three palaces, six courtyards and seventy-two concubines.

Moreover, he can also leave a strong mark on history.

In this case, if you let him accept the recruitment of the Northern Song Dynasty, how could he be willing?

Seeing that Fang La once again rejected his loyal words, Bao Kang couldn't hold back any longer, and he said angrily, "The erector is not enough and the plan!" ”

After speaking, Bao Kang flicked his sleeves and left.

Fang La's face suddenly turned pale, and he said in his heart, "Bao Kang is hateful, he dares to say this about me, do you really dare not kill you?" ”

Seeing that Fang La's face sank, Prime Minister Fang Fei said, "The Holy Father's anger, Master Bao has no malicious intentions, he is just a little anxious, so he doesn't understand the Holy Father's distress." ”

While saying this, Fang Fei gave Fang La a look.

Fang La understood what Fang Fei meant that at least half of their rebel army was connected by Bao Kang, so if Bao Kang was really moved, maybe this peasant army, which was not very closely connected, would split up in an instant.

Fang La said secretly, "If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, so let's put this bag of sunspots for the time being." ”

Thinking of this, Fang La squeezed out a smile and said, "I have been friends with Master Bao for many years, can I not understand that he has no intentions?" I'll go back to him and talk to him, that's all. ”

Fang La then said, "Let's continue to discuss business." ”

Fang Fei listened to the words and said, "Everyone, now we occupy six states and fifty-two counties, the situation is very good, at this critical moment of rejuvenating the country, you can speak freely if you have any good policies for the country, and the Holy Father will open the way to listen to the words and open the door to collect good policies." ”

Fang La also said: "Don't be stingy, Aiqing, whether our Yongle can prosper for a long time depends on everyone's collective efforts." ”

Hearing this, Chen Hoop said, "Now that the situation is so good, we can directly wave our army to the north, capture Jinling, which is not heavily guarded, and then use Jinling as a pedal to send a large army to cross the Yangtze River, and then directly Tokyo Bianliang City, if victorious, then take Zhao Song and replace it, if defeated, spread the teachings of our religion to the Central Plains, and call on the people of the world to revolt against the violent Song Dynasty." ”

Fang La shook his head and said, "What if you set yourself on fire?" ”

Chen hoop bucket said, "The southeast is the economic lifeline of Zhao Song, as long as Zhao Song still has the strength to fight, it will inevitably attack us, we should strike first, not be controlled by others." ”

Fang La still shook his head, and he said, "Our top priority now is to take advantage of Zhao Song's gathering of troops to quickly seize the southeast land, rather than wasting troops to go north." ”

Fang La said optimistically, "The most ideal situation is that after we occupy the southeast, and then Chen soldiers are millions on the Yangtze River, forcing Zhao Song not to dare to cross the river, we will rule the river with Zhao Song and coexist peacefully." ”

Many far-sighted people shook their heads secretly, and they said in their hearts, "If we occupy a side place, it may be possible to coexist peacefully with Zhao Song, but we occupy the economic lifeline of Zhao Song, how can Zhao Song coexist peacefully with us?" ”

But—

More people are like Fang La, optimistic that their side has more people and fewer troops than Zhao Song, and Zhao Song may choose to give up the southeast region.

Of course, the most people still follow the big gang - these people don't even understand what Fang La means by what they say, and where do they think so much, anyway, just follow the money, food, and girls to have a good time.

General Lu came out of the column and said, "Even if we don't cross the river, we must first seize Jinling, which is not heavily guarded, and hold the Yangtze River to prevent the Song army from moving south, disrupting our deployment." ”

Fang La said, "Jinling is naturally going to be taken, but don't be in a hurry, Jinling is the meat in our mouths, and we can't run away." ”

General Lu wanted to persuade again, but Fang La continued to talk eloquently, "I have already sent someone to inquire clearly, the only army that can fight in Zhao and Song is its western army, and the other armies are vulnerable, and although the western army can fight, it must guard the northwest of Zhao and Song, and stay away from my southeast, if Zhao Song really transfers the western army to the southeast, it will never be possible to do it without three or two months, there is this time, as long as we move quickly, we should be able to unify the southeast, and at that time, even if the western army comes to fight, we can also concentrate our forces to fight a decisive battle." ”

Fang La pushed his heart and said, "Zhao Song has lost the hearts of the people in the southeast, if you don't take this opportunity to expand, how long will you stay?" The more states and counties we occupy, the greater our war potential and the greater the strategic room for maneuver......"

Seeing that Fang La couldn't be convinced, and Fang La's claims were all justified, Chen Hoopoo, Lu Jiang and others could only shut up - there was no way to do it, after all, Fang La was their leader, and Fang La insisted on it.

Next, the so-called "Holy Father opened his mouth widely, listened to rumors, opened the door to advise and collect good policies", which became the words of Fang La's family.

Fang La's words are the way, and he has the meaning of pointing out the country.

Chen Hoop, Lu Jiang and others only had to listen.

Those who are optimistic and those who don't understand anything applaud one after another, praising Fang La's insight and wisdom.

After Chen Hoop, Lu Jiang and the others withdrew, Fang La looked at his uncle Prime Minister Fang Fei and his master, the military master Wang Gong Lao Buddha - these two were Fang La's most trusted people, the former was the one who assisted him in all state affairs, and the latter was his real first adviser.

Fang La suddenly changed his previous resoluteness and said, "Uncle, Master, is it right or wrong for me to do this?" ”

Wang Gong Lao Buddha said, "The dispute between you and Bao Kang, Chen Hoop Bucket, and Lu Jiang is not a dispute between right and wrong, but a dispute over the destiny of heaven, if the destiny is in you, your choice is not wrong, if the destiny is not in you, how you choose, it is all wrong." ”

Fang Ladao "I was born at the right time, I have seen myself in the water wearing a flat crown and a dragon robe, with the blessing of the Son of Heaven, I should be the emperor of the southeast, "Tui Bei Tu" is the proof, the destiny of heaven is naturally in me." ”

Wang Gong Lao Buddha said, "Heaven, what you do has God's help, why do you need to have a heart knot?" ”

After hearing this, Fang La suddenly became enlightened, and then bowed to Wang Gong Lao Buddha and said, "Thank you, Master for solving my doubts." ”

Fang Fei said, "Actually, whether it is to fight to the south or to the north, it is what I don't want to see, we don't lack generals, and the strategists are barely enough, but we lack the talent for governance, the more states and counties we occupy, the more talent for governance will be lacking, and if this goes on like this, there will be chaos...... Holy Father, in fact, Bao Kang said it well, if you fight the state and county, the officials really can't kill all of them, you can pick some of them with good reputation, and let them make meritorious contributions to temporarily assist us in governing the state and county, so as not to cause a big disaster. ”

Fang La said stubbornly: "What is the use of leaving those corrupt officials and corrupt officials except to make the people disappointed in me?" It's not that my uncle doesn't know that the reason why we follow everywhere is because we help those suffering people punish corrupt officials and corrupt officials, if not, how can they all nominate me? ”

Fang Fei said bitterly, "The area we have conquered is now full of chaos and no order at all, the people have suffered from it, they are miserable, and they are full of complaints, and if this goes on for a long time, we will definitely lose the hearts of the people!" ”

Fang La was silent for a while, and said, "This is an unavoidable pain, when I will officially enthrone the entire southeast as the emperor, I will open the imperial examination to select talents, and at this stage, let's teach the garrisons in various places to take care of it......"
