Chapter 168: The driving force of revenge

As time progressed, more and more people gathered, and in just two incense sticks, it expanded to nearly 20,000 people, and the water inside and outside the three layers of water could not be drained.

It's getting more and more wrong, there are so many people, and a steady stream of people are rushing to join. At this point, Wang Hao's color finally changed, and he had a premonition that something was going to happen, and he was still a little vague about how it would develop, but the biggest advantage of reading books was that they could find the prototype from history.

In Wang Huang's cognition, Fan Zhongyan is so awesome, and the officials and the army, including the emperor, are so afraid of him, in fact, Lao Fan likes to do this kind of thing the most: mobilize the masses and win over the masses.

Zhu Xiao is not illiterate, but his cognition in this area is far worse than Wang Hao, and he was annoyed after feeling that something was wrong, and scolded: "If it goes on like this, there will be chaos, why don't you disperse the crowd quickly!" ”

Seeing that Wang Hao also nodded and acquiesced, the poor people in Guichi County did not move, so Qin Ming quickly ordered the Xiang Military Department to "disperse quickly and drive away these people who are causing chaos." ”

"Who dares!"

Zhao Cheng patted the case and said, "This is the people of Guichi County, this is the barracks of this front-line commander, I approve them to stand here and participate in the war against bandits, which team dares to touch the emperor's people, list them as rebels, and hang them all on the wall of shame!" ”

"Your Excellency is wise...... Finally, there is an official who speaks for the people......"

Suddenly the applause was thunderous, and the shouts of more than 20,000 people rose and fell one after another like a tide, and the chaos was very chaotic, but this kind of momentum really scared the people of Qin Ming's department so that they didn't dare to move, and their calves trembled.

Because these people have entered a state of chicken blood after being supported by some people, and in fact, it is the Xiang Military Department that pulls their hatred the most. As long as someone lights this fuse, something big will happen.

After thinking about this, Wang Hao and the others were also so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak anymore. It was Zhen Nyima who was suppressed by Zhao Cheng, a lewd scholar.

Wang Hao is actually okay, and the people in Chizhou are not familiar with him. But Zhu Xiao is also the most hateful existence in ordinary times, Zhu Xiao is extremely worried now, once he can't control it, he will be caught by the mob and hung on the city wall of Chizhou, then he will really cry blindly.

Since Zhao Cheng dared to play so much with revenge, basically he would definitely win this time, unless Cai You and Huang Wenbin arrived in time to confiscate all of Zhao Cheng's jurisdiction. It's a pity that they are old foxes and will not show up at this time.

Seeing that Chizhou was in big trouble, Zhao Cheng seemed to be a spirit and cohesion, so the treacherous and cunning Cai You and Huang Wenbin decisively unified and entrusted everything to Zhao Cheng. If he loses, Zhao Cheng will bear the main black cauldron, and if he wins, Huang Wenbin and Cai You will be virtuous for the country.

After thinking about this, Zhu Xiao and Wang Hao were extremely embarrassed, and they regretted coming to this occasion to be watched.

"The Warrior of the Nation is unparalleled...... Adults will win! ”

Zhao Cheng didn't stop it, and continued to wait for the big people to shout.

Emotional uplift is an important part. In addition to other factors, shouting is the most effective and lowest-cost way, and it is a way to paralyze oneself and fool oneself.

Therefore, in the venues of some special companies in later generations, especially in the military, what is most needed is an overall "shout", which is impressive and easy to believe, so for a while there was a popular crazy English thing.

Emotions have almost become unprecedentedly high, and the number of people who continue to gather has exceeded 30,000.

Zhao Cheng got up at this time, raised his hand slightly, and the shout slowly fell, and the scene became very quiet.

Zhao Cheng decisively took the earthen megaphone that was improvised last night, stood on the table and said, "Wang Xiu has rebelled, and chaos is coming, what the consequences of this will be, and I don't want to go into details, because you know better than me what the war can bring." There will be displacement, there will be separation, there will be more strong men who will be shown to serve and die, and there will be more money and food to be used to kill. ”

"This is the autumn of the crisis of survival! It is the duty of the Officers to avoid the above-mentioned situations, to end this war in the quickest and least costly manner, and to avoid your casualties and losses to the greatest extent. Your duty is to believe in me and support me in winning this war. ”

"So far, I can't say that I'm doing a good job, but I've been working on it. In fact, I was working hard before the war began, but with little effect. In the first fateful Chizhou military conference, the two main generals from the Xiang army and the forbidden army, Dong Ping and Qin Ming, strongly opposed the advice of the official. Even if it is very simple to be cautious, and a few more steps can avoid loopholes, they are not willing to trouble themselves even once, and they are not willing to listen to even a little criticism and suggestions. ”

Zhao Cheng deliberately avoided mentioning Cai You and Huang Wenbin, which can be regarded as politically avoiding interests, but at the same time telling the truth.

has entered the mood, and the people who naturally trust Zhao Cheng have the same hatred and hatred, and feel worthless for Zhao Cheng.

Zhao Cheng continued, "What did this cause? Scholar I went out of the city overnight and rushed to Xishan with fifty recruits, trying to make up for the hidden dangers caused by their laziness and slackness. ”

"Does it work?"

Zhao Cheng looked around and said, "To be honest, it is useful." But the price is still very heavy, and the 600 soldiers who participated in the defense of Chizhou were unfortunately killed in Xishan, and until now, most of their corpses cannot be returned. ”

"Daddy, my daddy can't come back......"

Zhou En's child cried with tears in his eyes again, "My father is also one of the recruits, and when the team led by the adults learned that the bandits had traps, my father risked his life to break through the defense of Shangxi Mountain and inform the army......"

At this point, the little boy stopped talking, he only knew this, so he only said this.

In this regard, the feelings of hatred are growing stronger.

Zhao Cheng continued, "If it's just a mistake in decision-making, it's a crime of war, and it's because the bandits are too cunning. Even if I'm right, I won't ask too much. The official wrote a farewell letter at that time, risking his life to lead the remnant team into Xishan and learned the news of the trap, it was indeed the child's father who broke through and sent him up the mountain, but he did not come back, and Wuwei still charged down the mountain and entered the bandit trap. ”

At this point, there was a mass uproar, and the shouts were like a tide, drowning out the voices of Dong Ping, Wang Huang and others refuting and denying.

At about the same time, he was infinitely close to the state of public opinion that Zhao Cheng needed, so Zhao Cheng raised his hand, and the tidal sound gradually fell again.

Before Wang Huang and Dong Ping refuted, Zhao Cheng said coldly, "Regarding this matter, is there any evidence that conforms to the laws of the Great Song Dynasty?" In fact, I didn't. ”

The people were immediately stunned. Wang Huang and Dong Ping were also surprised, so they planned to wait for him to continue.

Zhao Cheng touched the little boy's skull again, "But no evidence doesn't mean that something didn't happen." I knew that this had happened, the child's father sent the news, not only was it not accepted by Dong Ping, but on the contrary, he was imprisoned, and after the defeat, they shirked their responsibility in order to cover up the news, and the child's father had been brutally killed by Dong Ping's own barracks! ”

The people on the scene began to have red eyes!

Preconceived, in fact, even in the era when the people's wisdom was opened and consultation broke out, civilians were not judges, and they would not examine the incident from the perspective of objective doubts, so countless fake news and fake news with ulterior motives spread frantically in various channels, including the circle of friends, and were believed by people.

The people of this era are not judges, based on their natural trust in Zhao Cheng, so their emotions have reached their peak and are about to boil.

"Chop them up!"

The little girl Chen Abao was the first to point to Dong Ping, who was kneeling on the ground, and shouted.

Immediately afterwards, all kinds of corresponding voices came and went!

Zhao Cheng raised his hand slightly in surprise, and the shout gradually fell.

Zhao Cheng said with a slightly sad look, "There is no evidence, and there will be no truth in many things in this life." Summoning you here, I don't ask for the truth to come to light, I don't want to settle the wrongs. I don't want to use public opinion to be my executioner, and I don't want to incite you into a mob to kill these people who are inconvenient for the government to kill. ”

At this point, the group was stunned again, and Wang Hao was also stunned.

Then Zhao Cheng smashed the megaphone on the ground angrily and said, "But I guarantee with my personality that I know the inside story of Xishan and what I am doing." I know that despite the efforts of several people on all sides, 600 soldiers were killed by bandits in Xishan, and more than 2,000 people were orphaned and widowed. This is by no means just the mistake of one person or one thought, how many people must be derelict in their duties and go with the flow to lead to such a result? ”

pointed to Zhou En's son again, "How many people must be mad and colluding with each other to make this child's father brutally killed by his own people when he was a hero!" ”

Zhao Cheng raised his hand in time to stop the public opinion that was about to erupt, and said lightly, "I don't need you to be the executioner, I don't need you to give me the confidence to kill!" I have never had the confidence to kill, but the desire for revenge and a sense of responsibility have never been stronger, and this is the driving force. ”
