Text Chapter 183 Zhao'an 2

Liu Zhengfeng said proudly: "We have already decided, and we are not all the way to the Tartar Imperial Court, and everyone has no intention of recruiting peace." The two of you have worked hard here, please come back! ”

When Tan Ziqi heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Uncle Yu, and arched his hand: "Everyone, since we have been ordered, please listen to me." The imperial court sincerely recruits you, so regardless of the past suspicions, how can you categorically refuse? I know that in the past, the local government did a lot of things that could not stand the mulberry, but the trees were big and withered, and there were tens of millions of officials in the court, and occasionally there were black sheep who were greedy for ink, cool, lost their conscience, and abandoned humanity. Now that my emperor is virtuous, he can be a minister, and he is getting rid of the prime minister and making great efforts, it is the time for capable people and righteous people to show their ambitions. ”

"You are Shuangli people, don't lie in front of the Ming people, the local government did not live with you in the past. As long as you are willing to turn back, the court will not only forgive your sins, but also give you official bodies and rewards. ”

Yu Bo followed Tan Ziqi's words and elaborated in detail, after speaking, he observed the demeanor of everyone present, Liu Zhengfeng just smiled coldly, Qin Zhanshan, Wan Jinhai, and Xia Houen were disdainful, but they listened quite seriously, Yu Shichang, who was at the bottom, just picked up the teacup and drank it slowly, and Yu Zhilong stared at himself intently. Liu Qi had a gloomy face, and his face was unwavering.

"Having said all that, what is the use of birds? The world is as black as a crow, Lao Tzu has lived for so many years, and he has never seen an official who is not in love with power and not greedy for money! Wan Jinhai said first.

"Now Lao Tzu drinks wine in a big bowl, eats meat in large pieces, and has a lady to warm the bedside at night, living a fairy-like life, why should he be constrained by Tartar?" Xia Houen sneered.

"A small army manager wants to send everyone away? Dream on! When Lao Tzu lays down the Yidu Road, if you wait for the acquaintance, this will already drop our family, but you can consider giving you a hat of 10,000 households, this place, as you choose! Qin Zhanshan snorted.

Yu Shichang directly ignored these two people, and he didn't look at them.

"You are angry, at present, there are indeed villains in the DPRK and China who are vying for power, going up to the Holy Monarch, harming the people of Li, poisoning the place for a long time, causing the people in the world to suffer. However, it is precisely because of this that people with lofty ideals in our generation want to stir up turbidity and promote purity, and return the people of the world to a clear world. If you are willing to be recruited by the imperial court, if you are willing to continue to serve in the army, you can be a military position, restrain the three armies in the future, strictly enforce military discipline, resist the humiliation of the enemy outside, and secure the place internally. If you are just wandering in the mountains and forests among the reckless, sitting and watching the villains abuse the people and harm the people in the court, infringe on the society, and lose your ability in vain, wouldn't it be a hero's doing? ”

Uncle Yu said bitterly: "You have the ambition to settle the people, and you want to give justice to the people of the world, but what can you do if you are trapped in one place?" What's more, the army of the imperial court is coming, and when the jade is burned, it will be difficult to keep the armor, and the ambitions of the monarchs will not be extended, will they not be covered in the water? Now the Qingming Shilin of the imperial court is echoing in groups, fighting to the death with corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and people with lofty ideals are needed to respond from all directions, but only when they enter the official system can they have the left and right, and they are united in their hearts and minds, and they take care of each other! If the monarchs are interested, Lord Gu should sweep the couch to greet him, as long as the public is loyal to the country, it will be observed by the holy monarch, and then the high-ranking officials will be generous, and the wives and sons will be sealed, and then comfort the souls of the ancestors, isn't it a beautiful thing? ”

Yu Zhilong didn't expect this Uncle Yu to be able to tell a big truth, and couldn't help but re-examine him. The generals are all rough people, and they are not good at words, although they feel that there is something inappropriate, but they can't say why.

Tan Ziqi continued Yu Bo's words and said: "Although you now have a city, it is just a small place in the eyes of the imperial court. Your army is not more than 10,000, but the court lions are more than 10,000? And there are mountains in the west of Linqu County that are difficult to pass, there are river forks and ditches in the east, and there are officials and soldiers blocking the north and south roads, and the county has gathered no less than 30,000 people from other places, but now the official roads are not passable, and there is no input of money and grain, even if the imperial court does not send a large army to suppress it, it will be blocked for several months, and in your situation, I am afraid that it will not be able to support it for three months. When the time comes, it will collapse without a fight, but there will be no reliance on even the imperial court! Please also think about your future! ”

Yu Shichang said angrily: "Either you die, or I die!" Have the courage to let the horse come over and see the real chapter! ”

Liu Zhengfeng twisted his eyebrows and said: "Don't worry about the officials, we have put life and death aside since the beginning of the army, and the soldiers under us are united." The Yuan court is tyrannical, and the herdsmen are like pigs and dogs, there is no need to say more, it is definitely not a tree with withered branches! When the two of them entered the city, they must have seen two big flags on the city gate, on which they drove out the Tartars and restored China. ”

Liu Zhengfeng's tone was not high, but he was iron-clad.

Yu Bo and Tan Ziqi couldn't help frowning secretly.

The eight characters written by the banner of the city head were known by the two of them, and they also speculated repeatedly in private, pondering their intentions. Since ancient times, most of the rebels of the tree banner have played the way for the heavens, and the violence and peace are good, in fact, it is difficult to have a real point, these people are mostly seeking a place to settle down, attracting many people who have fallen into the grass, gathering in the mountains and forests, often going down the mountain to loot assets to support people and horses, and rarely take the initiative to attack the prefecture and county, and resist the imperial court. said that it was a thief, but in fact it was a thief, as long as the officials and soldiers did not levy and suppress too much, they could be safe.

However, these two flags are clear about the enemy and the enemy, and they are straightforward, and they should not be underestimated. It has long been found out that this is the first banner of Yu Zhilong's department, and later the thief leader Liu Zhengfeng set it up at the head of the city to show the ambition of the Shuntian army.

It's this Yu Zhilong again! How good it would have been if Yan Chi had killed him on the mountain road in the first place!

Yu Bo glanced at the generals opposite again, and paused on Yu Zhilong's face.

"Haha, everything is precious, God has the virtue of a good life, mobilize swords, and the people are still suffering! If the general feels that this condition is not satisfactory, after returning home, he will naturally bring the general's intentions, and everyone must be satisfied. Thinking that Zhang Thief Shicheng also had the intention of surrendering at the beginning, the court repeatedly contacted him about Zhao'an, but Zhang Thief not only had a higher heart than the sky, but also repeatedly broke his word, and even murdered the court officials, and finally made people angry, and the court only cracked down on it, and it was the local people and the soldiers below who were unlucky. Yu Bo finally pretended to be relaxed.

What he said was that Li Qi, the prefect of Gaoyou Mansion, originally surrendered Zhang Shicheng, but soon Zhang Shicheng rebelled again, and killed Zhao Lian, who participated in the politics of the province, in the thirteenth year of Zheng, that is, in May last year, the Yuan Court sent the prefect Li Qi to take the appointment of ten thousand households to surrender them, Zhang Shicheng thought that the official was too small, and killed Li Qi, attacked and occupied Gaoyou, claiming to be "King Cheng", the country name "Da Zhou", and the year name "Tianyou". This finally provoked the anger of the Yuan court, and Zhao Tuo led the army to the south.

Yu Bo seems to be speaking easily, but he also reveals that everything is discussed, you had better be knowledgeable, and don't learn from Zhang Shicheng's example of being greedy and treacherous.

Yu Bo mentioned Zhang Shicheng, Liu Zhengfeng and the others couldn't help but change their faces slightly, knowing that it was the other party who finished speaking softly, and then put some hard words to imply that they knew each other.

Liu Qi sat on the chair, his eyes kept blinking, looking at the face of Liu Zhengfeng at the top, and then at the demeanor of the generals on the left and right, his eyes were erratic, and he didn't know what to think.

Yu Zhilong smiled and said: "I have been inheriting China for thousands of years, during which countless northern captives invaded the south, although I have repeatedly succeeded, and there are countless people who have obtained wealth and goods, but few of them can gain a long-term foothold in the Central Plains." I look at the reason, most of them are tyrannical and tyrannical in the north, do not understand Chinese etiquette and economy, despise the people of the Han family like pigs and dogs, the times change, and they do not know how to change, and most of them are practiced with barbaric and rude methods, which leads to political malpractices day by day. After the Tatars entered the Central Plains, in just a few decades, the emperor actually changed several times, which shows the tragic infighting in his palace, and the government decree changes day by day, and there are countless places where you are a light man, and the world has suffered for a long time! Looking at today's monarchs and ministers, there is no virtue inside, and there is no virtuous law outside, this is a sign of the death of the country, if you are recruited at this time, it is too ridiculous! ”

Yu Bo and Tan Ziqi were shocked, and Yu Bo asked pretendedly, "I don't know the name of this little general?" ”

"I am Yu Zhilong."

"It turned out to be General Fei, and now on Yidu Road, the name of the general can be said to be like thunder, and he has been admired for a long time!" Yu Bo Shili said.

"It's a great blessing that the Shuntian Army can get a general!" Tan Ziqi praised it and did not forget to add some eye medicine to Liu Zhengfeng.

Sure enough, although Liu Zhengfeng's color remained unchanged when he heard this, his eyes were closed.

"Qin lost his deer, and the world chased him. I am the Song and Jin Dynasty of the Great Yuan Dynasty, and this is also the case. Since Taizu Dingding the Central Plains has gone through decades, the pilgrims have innovated political affairs, persuaded agriculture and mulberry, revitalized water conservancy, repaired official roads, built post stations, opened canals, and had access to the huge profits of goods and trade in the East China Sea and the Western Regions. The prosperity of the people living and working in peace and contentment far exceeded that of the former Song Dynasty and the former Jin Dynasty, although there were drawbacks in the court, but there were occasional insect diseases on the tall trees, which was not enough to suffer. Uncle Yu smiled and slowly decomposed.

"The generals are brave and wise, and they are the cadres of the country. The so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, and now the great yuan is prosperous, although there are thieves from all over the country to harass from time to time, after all, it is a mayfly shaking a tree! If the generals abandon the darkness and turn to the light, this is the time to show their skills. This is the blessing of the generals and the blessing of the court! ”

Yu Zhilong immediately said: "Don't dare to be!" My Shuntian army is full of coolies, and today's situation is due to the faintness and corruption of the court, which makes the people miserable and has to rebel. The adults said that the Yuan Court was a tall tree, but according to my opinion, it was already terminally ill and there was no cure. The adults are officials in Beijing, and when they know that the treasury of the Yuan court has long been unable to make ends meet, the operation of the imperial court is stretched. If taxes are not raised, the military and political expenses of the imperial court will be provided with nothing, and it will inevitably collapse; If taxes are raised, people's livelihood will already be difficult and difficult, and this move will inevitably lead to countless ruins for people all over the world. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat. Now that the people's grievances are boiling, it has become a prairie fire, it is the time for my generation to restore the rivers and mountains, I persuade the adults to simply leave the Yuan court, join our army to serve, eliminate the tyrannical Yuan, and be a founding hero? ”

"You two adults might as well think about it?" Yu Shichang joked. Liu Zhengfeng smiled slightly.

Liu Qi, Qin Zhanshan and others had little contact with Yu Zhilong, and they never thought that this would be beneficial to Yu Zhilong. Especially Liu Qi, after hearing Yu Zhilong's refutation, he hesitated a little in his heart.

Yu Bo and Tan Ziqi felt even more deeply that they had come to persuade him to surrender on this trip, but unexpectedly, Yu Zhilong returned the favor with his own way.

Yu Zhilong judged that the Yuan court's finances were already in a quagmire, based on the fact that most of them came from the tax revenue and proportion of Linqu over the years, as well as the local people's livelihood records. During Xie Lin's administration, the contents of various revenues and expenditures and the encroachment of land deeds were detailed and had a good reference basis. Moreover, in recent years, the anti-Yuan trend has risen sharply in various places, and with the corruption and incompetence of officials at all levels, the military expenditure of the Yuan court is definitely a huge hole, otherwise it would not have paid such a heavy tax.

Tan Ziqi didn't want to fall into his own momentum, and smiled at Liu Zhengfeng and Yu Zhilong: "I Dayuan conquered the four seas with martial arts, the world was salty, and then educated the Chinese people with Chinese law. Even if there are Liu Thief Futong and Zhang Thief Shicheng, they are now still struggling to survive, as for Fang Guozhen, Guo Zixing, and Chen Youliang are even more incompetent, which is really not enough to worry about! ”

"Now that the imperial army has won frequent victories in Gaoyou, Zhang thief is trapped in the beast and fighting, and the destruction is only in the evening, when the army can freely transfer the battlefield, Huanghuai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang can drive at will, for your future, please make plans as soon as possible."

What he said was the truth, although the generals did not know the specific battle situation of Gaoyou, but the information of the imperial court was still detective or two, and they also knew that Zhang Shicheng's situation was not good, in case Gaoyou City was broken, these hundreds of thousands of troops would casually divide a share of Yidu, and they would not be able to deal with it!

For a while, the generals' faces changed and they were silent.
