Chapter 299: Fame
Mao Wenlong didn't expect things to go so smoothly at all, and the attitudes of Wu Qiu and Ma Ren were even more incomprehensible. No matter how you say that the fastest update is also an official of the imperial court, and it is also the general of the army, but after Mao Wenlong revealed the meaning of recruitment, he didn't even mention the conditions, and he was willing to follow on the surface.
Usually in such cases, either the two of them sincerely follow Mao Wenlong, or they have ulterior motives. And the situation in front of him is obviously that the latter is the majority, so Mao Wenlong hesitated.
He cast an inquiring glance at Hong Chengchou, who was obviously quite incomprehensible, and after a short thought, Hong Chengchou opened his mouth to ask: "Are you really serving the general army?" ”
Wu Qiu chuckled and explained: "Your Excellency, you don't need to be suspicious, we are naturally sincere in serving the general army." ”
Ma Ren also made do and said: "This is indeed our sincere contribution. Adults may not know that since we came to Anton Wei, although we are the general, this life is worse than that of a poor man when you were on an errand under you in Shaanxi. ”
"Why is that?" Hong Chengchou's face was full of doubts.
No matter how you say it, on the surface, this Shandong is completely better than Shaanxi. Just looking at the prosperity of this city, you can think that Anton Wei must not be far behind.
And the two of them, as the commanders of Anton Wei, are at least two small leaders, and they will definitely not lead to a life that is not even comparable to that of a bad guy.
"Alas......"
Wu Qiu immediately sighed lightly and complained: "Shandong is indeed much better than Shaanxi, but this is only the surface. In fact, the inside is also unbearable, for example, Anton Wei, who is employed by the two of us, is frequently harassed by the Japanese Bandits, and people always have to panic once every three days, so that everyone can't sleep well. ”
Ma Ren immediately continued: "Soon, the military rations allocated by the imperial court will be withheld layer by layer, and there will be no one out of ten in the hands of our people. Except for Mr. Qian and his own soldiers, none of the entire Anton Wei can be fed. ”
Mao Wenlong listened to the words of the two and was suddenly stunned. It seems that the ** of the imperial court is not only caused by natural disasters, but also the corruption of the system, which has reached the point of hopelessness.
Chongzhen thought that as long as there was enough money and food, he could resolve the current crisis, but he was simply wishful thinking.
The court cannot be united, and military discipline is even more corrupt, if these cannot be solved first, no amount of money and food can fill this bottomless pit.
Wu Qiu hesitated at this time, he gritted his teeth and said frankly: "Don't hide it from the chief soldier and the lord, in fact, the two of us have already planned to escape from Anton Wei. Therefore, when I learned that the general soldier had the intention of recruiting us, I agreed without hesitation. ”
Mao Wenlong's deeds have long been spread in Yunzhou Mansion, especially many businessmen who have boasted of Henan as a paradise on earth. After learning about the situation of Mao Wenlong in Henan, Wu Qiu and Ma Ren had already come up with the idea of defecting.
Helplessly, both of them knew that if they defected without any use, they would probably be rejected by Mao Wenlong, or simply ignored. Even if they were lucky, Mao Wenlong accepted them, and they would definitely not be important, so the two of them had been thinking about what to take to join Mao Wenlong so that they would not be ignored.
However, today, happiness unexpectedly befell them, and Mao Wenlong actually took the initiative to recruit them. A huge pie fell from the sky, and the two of them were dizzy with excitement for a while.
Knowing what happened, Mao Wenlong no longer had any suspicions about the two. It is normal for water to flow to a low place and people to climb to a high place.
It is normal for Wu Qiu and Ma Ren to behave like this.
Mao Wenlong and Hong Chengchou exchanged glances again, and from each other's eyes, both sides came to the same answer, no problem.
The minor misunderstanding has been resolved, and the atmosphere in the private room is suddenly relaxed again. Mao Wenlong was in a good mood, and fiercely praised the two for their foresight, and gave the two of them fluttering.
After expressing that he paid enough attention to them, Mao Wenlong brought the topic back to business.
He chuckled and said, "Since we are all my own now, then I will inform you of the plan." ”
Wu Qiu and Ma Ren immediately put away the smiles on their faces, looked at Mao Wenlong seriously, and waited for him to speak.
Mao Wenlong briefly said about the seizure of Shandong, and then said with a smile: "Henan is not suitable to send a large army to fight at present, so this time to capture Shandong, you can only outwit and not use too much force." With this in mind, I want you to win over people you can trust, and then those people will win over others after you succeed. ”
Wu Qiu immediately said that he would handle this matter well, and said to Mao Wenlong: "General soldier, Anton Wei can be captured at any time." Just kill that Mr. Qian, and then control his own soldiers. There are more than 2,000 people in the entire Anton Guard, and I dare to pack a ticket, and no one has a good impression of that thousand. ”
After a pause, Wu Qiu continued embarrassedly: "Of course, we need the general army to give us food. ”
Mao Wenlong nodded and said, "According to what you say, the situation of the other guards in Yunzhou Mansion should be similar. You first secretly win people over, and then you encourage everyone to rebel at the same time. As for the food, there is no problem at all, and it will be delivered to you before you start an incident. ”
"Xie Zongbing!" Wu Qiu and Ma Ren immediately stood up and hugged their fists to thank them.
Mao Wenlong suddenly warned gloomily: "Remember, don't leak the rumors, I need you to do all these things in secret." After the deed is completed, you will be rewarded according to your merits, and the benefits will definitely not be missing from you. ”
"Remembered the general soldier." Wu Qiu and Ma Ren swore solemnly.
Looking at the sky outside, it was already midnight, in order not to cause trouble, Mao Wenlong asked Wu Qiu and Ma Ren to stay in Lihui's green building tonight. and told the two that they could let the three brothers of the Lijia convey anything to themselves in the future.
After explaining the matter, Mao Wenlong left in a hurry and returned to the inn.
Mao Wenlong told Hong Chengchou that he would leave for Ye County early tomorrow morning. Now the affairs of Yunzhou Mansion will be handed over to the three brothers of the Lijia family and Wu Qiu, and Ma Ren will handle it. And Mao Wenlong must go back as soon as possible to gather 30,000 soldiers and horses, ready to meet them at any time, and attack Yunzhou Mansion at the first time, so as to seize a way out by sea.
Considering the current limited troops, Mao Wenlong can slowly plan other state capitals after occupying Yunzhou Mansion.
After Hong Chengchou learned of Mao Wenlong's plan, he had no objections. It can be said that as long as there are no accidents in the plan, Yunzhou Mansion will definitely be successfully obtained by Mao Wenlong. And it is very likely that there is really no need to use force, just win the hearts and minds of the people and pay some money and food.
