Wang Lung marched at the same time, and it was needless to say what the chickens and dogs of the Yan Shenggong Mansion and the Yasheng Gongfu tossed along the way.

Since Mr. Confucius founded Confucianism, he traveled around the world but had nowhere to promote his own theory, until the Han Dynasty, the disciples of the disciples were suppressed by practical schools such as Legalism, Bingjia, Zonghengjia and even Moism. Unexpectedly, a Dong Zhongshu appeared among the disciples and grandchildren, cleaned up the theoretical books left by the ancestors, threw the king's dislike into the garbage heap, and packaged the words useful to the emperor and said that it was his old man's quotations, and sent them to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

"Depose the hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone", from now on, Confucian children can openly cheat and cheat! Shandong surname Kong, Meng, Yan people are even more to go Hongyun, the past dynasties have set up three mansions, namely Yan Sheng Gong Mansion, Yasheng Mansion, Fu Sheng Mansion, not only do not have to pay the emperor's grain, and the emperor Lao Er also rewards from time to time during the festivals, naturally has countless good land, usually while shouting "the saint said ......" while buying cheap fertile land and yellow flower girl.

Qufu's Yansheng Mansion has a strong latent power in Shandong, not only in Qufu, Surabaya, and Zou County, but also has a large number of tenant granges, but also has the banners and signboards left by the ancestors, and it is tantamount to a god-like existence among the scholars on both sides of the river.

And the Yashenggong Mansion, located in Zou County, is not only Tianlian Qianmo, across the state and county, but also among the tenants, select the strong, and train a family arm.

However, under the inquiries of the spies sent out by Wang Long, Yang Shenzu and others, the shit under the butt of this so-called Yasheng Mansion is no less than that of Master Zu's. The most unacceptable thing is the so-called "right of the first night" habit.

Originally, there was still an old custom of "first night right" left over from ancient times, and when tenants rented land, it was stated in advance that the tenants' daughters should be broken by the local government when they grew up, otherwise they were not allowed to marry. The disciples of this Yashengfu are indeed well aware of the essence of the ancestors saying one thing and doing another, as the so-called "there was Zhou Tianzi at that time, and everything was said about Wei Qi", and they were never tired of this ancient legacy.

That's a paradox. On the one hand, we must pay attention to the woman's honor and chastity, and on the other hand, we will destroy people's complete bodies. If the basin is deducted to the head of the Mongolian barbarians back then, it makes sense. Before the daughter of a Han family gets married, she has to go to a thousand or hundred households in Mongolia to sleep for three nights. Somewhere Han people have a cruel custom of dropping their heads, and so on. Not to mention whether there were so many Mongolian people and officials in the Yuan Dynasty who could govern down to the village level, if they could really manage the grassroots units at the village level, would the subordinates of Sect Leader Zhang Wuji still have the opportunity to incite rebellion in various parts of Jianghuai?

But, with or without it, let's put the basin on your head first. Although the scholars did not know who Goebbels was, they also knew very well the truth that if there were too many lies, no one would believe the truth. On the one hand, he can demand that the widow must observe the festival, and on the other hand, he can break the body of the yellow flower girl who is about to marry and become his wife.

Such a big thing. How to hide the eyes of those veterans under Wang Long, so the faces of the Yansheng Mansion, the Yasheng Mansion, and the Zongsheng Zeng family quickly spread along with Wang Lung's march, and quickly formed two distinct and even incompatible groups on the land of Qilu.

One faction, led by scholars and gentry who read and reasoned, heard such insulting rebellious words. Suddenly, it was like a funeral examination approval, the heir of a saint. How could you do such a dirty thing? Moreover, how can those peasant women, who are rude and rude, be recommended between the pillows? How can there be nephrite warm fragrance full of charm? Nonsense, it must be Wang Lung, a thief, who framed my saint's court! How could I, the son of a saint, be so willing to be the daughter of such an ugly tenant?!

After weeping bitterly in front of the spirit tablet of the Holy Master of Dacheng. The officials and gentry jointly signed a letter, "Write a letter to the people and sue him at the court!" No, let's go to Beijing and detain the book! Although I know that this kind of bullshit is in vain when it arrives in Beijing, the military leaders everywhere are often burning, killing and looting with open flames, and the imperial court is powerless. Pretending not to see it, Wang Lung is now a popular person in the emperor's heart, and he is attached to the father and son of the prince of Shiliang, the pillar of the imperial court, and the officials in the court who have a little brain and vision will throw these so-called books of the people into the toilet.

However, in line with the principle that the toad will not bite you and disgust you, a copy of the Wanmin Book covered with handprints and signed names was still sent to the capital by the people through the General Administration Department.

"Alas! It's a pity that there is no murderous knife in his hand! After Kong Yinzhi learned of these situations, although he was quite relieved, justice was in the hearts of the people, but in the end, there were many people who had cultivated a group of heroic and righteous spirits. However, in this troubled world, the pen is indeed not as good as the knife and the gun.

"Recently, I heard that the Zhangling Tiger in the Jinan Army, although this person belongs to the command of Taiyuan father and son, he has always been loyal in his heart. Brother might as well make friends with him, and influence the teachings with the righteousness of the saint, and he will definitely be of great use in the future. This secret letter from the Yasheng Mansion vaguely compares Li Shouhan and his son to Li Yuan's father and son, who served as the guards in Taiyuan back then, and their vicious intentions naturally need not be said. But it also pointed out a direction for Kong Yinzhi, and he might as well put some effort into a local armed leader like Zhang Linghu in Shandong.

The other faction is naturally dominated by those small landlords and poor people who have defected to the Nanyue Army, and the tenants in the grange, who have initially felt the benefits brought to them by the new policy in the past few years. Every year, when the landlord and the tenants discuss the rent together, the tenants will take out the rent reduction regulations heard in the bazaar, "The official family has a law, and it cannot exceed 30%, and if it exceeds 30%, I am afraid that the soldiers and horses of the eldest prince Li will come to the owner and say." But it is no more than 30%, and now there is a big drought in the famine year, and we can't receive any food, at most we will hand over 20% to the owner. If we do, we can only go to the sea, take a sea boat to the sea and go to the south to reclaim the wasteland. It is said that when we go to the south to reclaim the famine, the grandfather and the official family will give rations, and give the guys and livestock, and we only need to make efforts. "The peasants are simple, but it does not mean that they will not take advantage of the favorable conditions, and the meaning of these words is very clear. Either abide by the law, take care of the friendship of our old boss and old buddies, and control the rent within 20%, or we will collectively go to sea to the south to open up wasteland, anyway, everywhere is farming, you can see for yourself!

So. The tenant rents in Shandong and Denglai are declining.

Their different interests made these people naturally willing to believe that the Kong family and the Meng family had done those dirty and dirty things. In fact, without Wang Long's special publicity, which people everywhere don't know? Where are the only these for their crimes? What private courts, indiscriminate punishments, and so on.

Although these people have no way to go to the people's book, they are victorious because of their large number of people, covering almost the entire Shandong and Denglai small and medium-sized people. is some of the fallen talents, cold children, and they are also among the ranks who secretly support Li Huayu.

"Wang Lung was reckless. I don't want to cause so much trouble to the young marshal. ”

Jinan Mansion, the Governor's Mansion of King Lu was changed, and in the meeting hall that was turned into the original Yin'an Palace, Wang Lung pretended to be humble and saluted Li Huayu with his fists, and forgave his sins again and again.

Although I have seen it once in Guide Mansion, it is located on the battlefield, and the natural etiquette is much slower. Today's scene is a formal ceremony specially held by Li Huayu for his old friend. The first is to promulgate the commendation and appointment of Wang Lung by the court and his father, and the settlement of his men. Secondly. It is even more important to let the officials and gentry in Jinan and Shandong see that our Li family's father and son are supporting Wang Long's platform. If you have any tricks, just use them!

Lying in Wang Long's ear, Li Huayu muttered a few words in a low voice: "You ****, what are you doing here with Lao Tzu?" You tossed and turned along the way, not only did many people flee to our farms, but also many displaced people from all over the country wanted to go to the sea to settle down. Speaking of which, we have to thank you kid. ”

These escaped tenants. For the homeless people who want to go to sea, if there is no encouragement from the hundreds of students of the Qin Law Academy under Wang Long, I am afraid that they will not be able to make up their minds so much. At that moment, Wang Lung also pretended to be solemn on his face, and replied to Li Huayu in the same low voice: "Let's come to the end of the road to vote for the young marshal, why do we have to bring a name to the mountain to pay a salute?" I can't do anything else. Only the faces of the Kong family and the Meng family can barely get into the eyes of the young marshal. ”

"Fuck off!"

The two bold guys teased each other in a low voice, and then Li Huayu helped Wang Long, who was kneeling in front of him, to lift Wang Lung's battle robe, and to dust it off, making him look like a corporal of Lixian.

After that, he handed Wang Lung the farewell documents, seals and other things issued by the Imperial Military Department to Wang Long, and Wang Long refused to look at them and threw them to the soldiers on the side to collect them.

"This is the document appointed by my father to your department as the Fifth Mixed Brigade, Wang Long, you are the brigade commander of the Fifth Mixed Brigade. This is a list of personnel, horses, weapons and equipment that your ministry should have. The appointment of the generals of the various ministries has to be reported to you, and I will turn the father of the family to allow it. ”

With both hands taking over the cinnabar clear appointment order and compilation documents above, Wang Long and the others couldn't help but let out a long breath in their hearts. Although he knew that his men and horses were far from enough at the moment, and the Nanyue Army was bound to send more people to the team, as long as he could have a place to live and avenge the campfire, what was this matter?

According to the establishment of the Nanyue Army, a mixed brigade has at least two or three infantry regiments, as well as a guard standard, a horse team, an artillery team, and a number of baggage and health troops. But at the moment, Wang Lung's fighters are only 6,000, and there are many wounded among them, and most of the rest are members of the Luo family who were exchanged by Chen Guoxi through negotiations, old and young, women and children, sick and disabled.

Among the 6,000 soldiers, most of them were horses, and the original gunners and gunners were scattered a lot in Henan, and I don't know where they went. Therefore, this fifth mixed brigade also needs to be time-consuming and labor-intensive to sort out well in order to be worthy of its name.

"No hurry! Anyway, I won't be in such a hurry to send you to the battlefield. Have a good New Year first, and after the beginning of spring, you can help me do two things. The first is to rectify your team and enrich each team as soon as possible, and the second is to help me supervise the work in various parts of Shandong. ”

Wang Lung was still holding a wine glass there, nervously thinking about how to adjust the manpower of each department and how to arrange job errands, but he didn't expect Li Huayu to have such an attitude, and he looked like he was slow and round.

"There is another matter, but you have to discuss it yourself. It is your family, how to settle it. ”

Wang Lung's team. A large number of family members, there are more than a dozen concubines of Luo Rucai who were sent back, and they are all moving in their stomachs. Probably broke into the camp and didn't want to spend food to feed the women and children for Luo Rucai, so he packed them up and sent them back.

How these people settle down and where they settle down is indeed a troublesome matter that plagues Wang Lung and others.

Once it's up and running. There are thousands of complexities and complexities, and it gives Wang Lung a headache when he thinks about it.

When he was hesitating, he saw a figure on the side who was in the middle of Ai Ai, wanting to enter and stop. He looked with the rest of his eyes, but saw a burly and dignified man, who was hesitating, wanting to step forward to toast Li Huayu, but he didn't dare.

"Bong-first. is also a good man, how did he get in front of the young marshal and be cowardly! Wang Lung put aside the messy thoughts in his mind, stretched out his hand to grab the man's wrist, and pulled him in front of Li Huayu.

"My lord, this man is a good man in the battalion. Good at leading a horse team, the most can run but can't beat. Being able to be valued so much by Wang Lung, and being known for being able to run and fight under Wang Lung's subordinates, who have always been able to fight and run, suddenly made Li Huayu have a strong interest in this person.

And the person in front of him. is also a man who has grown up, with a loyal and dignified face. Immediately made Li Huayu feel good. However, if he knew about this master's legendary experience, he was afraid that his favorability would be greatly reduced.

Wu Fengxian, who was originally a guerrilla of the Ming army stationed in the Kaifeng area, saw that the momentum was not good when Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai's army swept through eastern Henan. immediately raised the flag and rebelled, and it was under the command of Luo Rucai. Because he put the way to get rich elsewhere on weekdays, he didn't drink much blood, and he paid more attention to winning the hearts of the soldiers. His subordinates are also relatively well-equipped and well-trained. Luo Rucai was happy to take him into his pocket. Become a general of the Cao Battalion.

As a result, when he learned that Luo Rucai and He Yilong were merged by Li Zicheng, even if he sent someone to ride a fast horse to the Lu clan to tell Yuan Zongdi and others that he had long seen Luo Rucai's perverse behavior, but he dared not speak out, the generalissimo's move today was really in line with the people's hearts, and Wu was willing to take the lead in submitting to the generalissimo's command.

Yuan Zongdi, who was hundreds of miles away, was naturally happy to see someone take the initiative to come out and submit to him, and even promised him the official position of a general. and ordered him to go east, monitor Wang Lung and guard against any changes in Cao Ying's descendants. As a result, when the Luo family and Cao Cao's henchmen in the Cao camp really clamored and rushed eastward, he threw aside the banner of breaking into the camp, raised the banner of Cao Ying again, and joined Yang Shenzu, Sun Chengzu and others to the east to join Wang Long.

In just a few days, the banner has changed several times, and this Wu Fengxian can be regarded as a master of Sichuan opera changing face!

"What job are you doing now? How many people are left? ”

Li Huayu obviously has a strong interest in this guy, and he was able to escape all the way from central Henan to eastern Henan under the pursuit of the camping men, and his ability to lead troops and run away can be regarded as relatively strong.

"Back to the words of the lord," Wu Fengxian knew quite well about the etiquette of officialdom, and first kowtowed to Li Huayu in a proper manner, and then raised his head to reply. "Because the official position I received before was a false position, it is naturally difficult to say. When General Wang led us eastward to renew ourselves, the men and horses under the command were organized into a horse battalion. There are still about three or four hundred people and more than five hundred horses. ”

After thousands of miles of escape, he can still retain such strength, and Li Huayu looks at this Wu Fengxian more and more.

"Wang Long, let's discuss, this General Wu is in the middle of your battalion? Are you willing to endure the pain of cutting love? ”

"What do you mean?" Wang Lung pretended to be confused.

This Shandong, Henan, and Fengyang, Luzhou, Yingzhou and other places near the left, are all endless plains, which are the most suitable for cavalry and horse teams. It's a pity that it is located in Lingnan, and the Nanyue Army, which is mostly southerners, has always been the shortest piece of wood for cavalry. Therefore, for many years, Li Shouhan and his son have tried every means to make up for this shortcoming.

At present, among the Shandong soldiers and horses in charge of Li Huayu, there are Tartars from Liaodong, such as Tuha and Ekui, who serve as the backbone of the cavalry and train hussars. However, in line with the principle that eggs cannot be put in one basket, Li Huayu planned to recruit more than 1,000 cavalry in Fengyang, Mengcheng, Xuzhou, and Bozhou, and use them as guards cavalry battalions after they were formed into battalions. But right now, the few right-hand men around him have their own bunch of things, and they can't get out for a while. The Wu Fengxian in front of him is the material of a cavalry general.

"I'm going to borrow someone to use it." Li Huayu is also honest and unkind.

"These of us are all subordinates of the grandfather of the country and the eldest young marshal, just listen to the dispatch of the eldest young marshal." Wang Lung expressed his attitude very happily.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Wang Lung's Fifth Mixed Brigade headed for Dengzhou Mansion, preparing to conduct training in this area. At this time, there were many fewer people in his team. Yang Shenzu, Sun Cheng, Wang Kehuai, and Hao Youfa were still by his side to assist, but the other members of the Luo family were no longer marching with the brigade.

According to the resolution they discussed at several meetings, in order to protect the Luo family's cigarette descendants and everyone's wives and children, naturally they could no longer be allowed to march and fight with the group. At the same time, it was also to make the Li family father and son completely reassured Wang Long and others, and they resolutely sent all their families and the old and young in the camp to the southbound sea boat.

The destinations of the sea ships are different, and Luo Rucai's pregnant concubines went to Shanghai to give birth, so as to leave a descendant for Luo Rucai. The families of the group went to Guangdong or to Nanzhong, and even many of the old, weak, sick and disabled who had been laid off from the battalion ambitiously boarded the sea ships bound for Shizhou and Fusang.

"Let's go to those places first to stake land for everyone, and when Grandpa Guo ascends to the throne, the world is peaceful, and the big guy still has our relatives overseas, as well as tens of thousands of acres of land!"

During the deliberations, Luo Rucai's Chinese army Yang Shan, the flag and drum officer Zhu Yangmin, and Luo Rucai's own uncle Luo Dain expressed their unwillingness to live that kind of life in the army anymore, and would rather take the severance money given by Li Huayu to cross the sea by boat to Shizhou and Fusang, which were praised by the people of the Nanyue army, to reclaim the land, so as to leave everyone a room to retreat overseas.

"In any case, for everyone's safety, we can't huddle together. It should be spread out everywhere, and the farther apart the better. ”

Wang Long even handed over all the hundreds of students of the Qin Law School in his hands, and asked Li Huayu to arrange for them to be used in a unified manner.

It was he himself who also proposed that after completing the training of the troops and supervising the river work affairs of the spring cash-for-work, he would go south to Nanzhong to travel and have a tour, and if possible, also go to the lecture hall to receive a new education.

In the team, there was no figure of Wu Fengxian, and he took his capable men to Yingzhou, Luzhou, Fengyang and other places to recruit cavalry. (To be continued.) )
