Chapter 016: Chaos
"Yoyo ......"
On the official road, Zhao Zongwu galloped on horseback, and more than 30 knights behind him galloped on the official road, floating dust, but the people had long since disappeared.
"Commander, in front of you is Nanpi." He Huchen held the horsewhip and pointed forward, his voice like a bell.
As a guerrilla in Tianjin's coastal defense, he received the edict to unload the Tianjin coastal defense guerrilla, and went to Donghai Town to serve with Zhao Zongwu, the commander of Donghai Town.
Donghai Town, this newly established establishment, made He Huchen have a lot of doubts in his heart, but the general was instructed, and He Huchen couldn't think too much, so he hurriedly stepped down at the order of Zhao Zongwu and left with him.
Zhao Zongwu nodded and said, "Well, when you arrive at Nanpi, look for an inn nearby to rest." ”
In order to ensure the absolute safety of elite-level and master-level craftsmen, Zhao Zongwu and his entourage left Beijing and arrived in Tianjin, and ordered Zhao Zonghu, Zhao Zongbao, and Zu Kefa.
Take the sea ship in batches, go to Dengzhou Mansion first, Penglai is on standby, there is still a companionship, He Cheng commanded, a selection of more than 500 people's subordinates, soldiers.
Zhao Zongwu did not go to sea by boat, one was to investigate Zhao Zonglin's whereabouts, and the other was to lay out Shandong.
The White Lotus Sect uprising is imminent, and Shandong has always been the Ming Dynasty, the most likely area to fall into chaos, the underground forces are intricate, if you can master one or two, then you will be able to get a lot of gains in the future!
For this year's Shandong, a sudden earth dragon turned over, shattering all the good things of the people, but whenever there is a natural disaster, man-made disasters will definitely follow.
The Ming Dynasty is too weak now, and the continuous turmoil is constantly consuming, and it does not have much vitality, which is also associated with the ability to deal with disasters, which is also declining.
"Who would have thought that the capital is calm, but the place is like this." Lu Wenzhao frowned, his words were full of sorrow, and his mood was low.
Slanted his eyes and glanced at Lu Wenzhao, Zhao Zongwu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "You don't know much, now you can't stand this scene?"
Do you know that in the land of Liaoxi, because the war situation is unfavorable, the people have not had time to retreat, and the place where the Jiannu army passes, slaughtering the people like cutting wheat?
The current place is like a sick person who is difficult to return, and the officials only want to enjoy themselves, and do not care about the life and death of the people, they will inevitably pay the price!
Let you follow, not to let you sigh here, but to think more with your hearts, to see more and think more, it is not a bad thing for you. ”
Troubled times are a paradise for the strong.
Troubled times are hell for the weak.
Without exception, in troubled times, the most miserable people are the people who are struggling at the bottom.
Put away the glass heart of gains and losses, want to do something practical in troubled times, and just seek authority and replace the ruling group of the current dynasty, that will not solve the problem.
If you want to solve these real problems, you must take root at the bottom, lead the people in a down-to-earth manner, and go out of a grand road!
Because of the party strife, what Daming lacks is pragmatic officials, and officials who really do things can be said to be rare.
This was said to Lu Wenzhao, and it was also addressed to Chen Qiyu, Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, Shi Kefa, and Yan Yingyuan.
At first, Chen Qiyu and the others, after being captured, were extremely excited, but with the passage of time, and after leaving Beijing, they also gave up useless resistance when they learned of Zhao Zongwu's identity, but this hatred did not dissipate.
But as ordinary people walked in the territory of Beizhili, looking at what happened every day, their hearts became more and more depressed, and the frequency of frowning brows gradually increased......
"Have pity on me, my lord, give the little one a bite to eat......"
"Poor poor ......"
"Mother! What's wrong with you, mother! Mother......"
"Wow wow...... Daddy, Daddy, where are you......"
"Who's going to ......"
On the way to Nanpi, the sparse refugees, walking with dull eyes, with vegetables on their faces, ragged clothes, and skinny like firewood, seemed to be able to blow them down with a gust of wind!
Looking at this glance, there was no end in sight, Zhao Zongwu and his party, their hearts were heavy, how long had they not seen such a human tragedy.
"The Chinese people can be said to be the least demanding ethnic group in the world, and they are also the most industrious ethnic groups in the world.
But because of the existence of moths that can't be fed, the people who are struggling at the bottom have been deprived of even the last glimmer of hope for life!
It's normal for riots and civil unrest to occur! ”
Looking at the group of refugees in front of him, Zhao Zongwu felt quite touched in his heart, and at the same time, he also understood why an uprising broke out in Shandong.
The foundation of the Ming Dynasty is being eaten away by those moths who only know self-interest, constantly using their fangs!
Chen Qiyu frowned, and said indignantly: "Why is this happening! There are fugitives of this scale, why is there no news in Beijing at all! ”
Sun Chuanting frowned and said, "All this is probably not as simple as what you see. Listening to this accent, it should be the people of Qilu.
Although there is ground movement in Shandong, there is a general rumor that the disaster has been properly handled? ”
Zhao Zongwu restricts their personal freedom, but freedom of speech can be guaranteed, if you want Chen Qiyu and them to do things for themselves, there are many, many things that need to be done, but now is a good start.
"The current high-ranking officials of the imperial court can't listen to any bad news, and local officials, in order to be respected by their superiors, it is normal to play some spring and autumn penmanship.
Besides, the people at the bottom are dead when they die, who cares about the life or death of these mud legs?
Even if the imperial court provides disaster relief, how much silver and grain will be used for this?
Put away your fragile hearts, and you will see a lot of things like this along the way! ”
Looking at Chen Qiyu, Sun Chuanting and the others with grim expressions, Zhao Zongwu said with disdain on his face, and his words were even more sarcastic.
The current officialdom of Daming has completely and resolutely moved towards the festering road, and there are even more corrupt officials and corrupt officials, which is countless, which also makes Daming's control in the local area is constantly being lost!
Zhao Zongwu's words made everyone present fall into contemplation, this topic is too heavy, and the scene in front of them is already tragic for them.
This has not yet entered the territory of Shandong, if it really enters the territory of Shandong, then what kind of human tragedy will it be?
They don't dare to imagine it.
What happened to the current Daming?
I'm afraid that in the hearts of many people, there are thoughts like this, is this still the Ming they know?
Why was it that a few years ago, the country and the people were safe, but now it is such a situation, what is going on?
So much so that there will be such a situation!
