Chapter 39: The Terrible Military Discipline
With Fushou stabbed to death, Zhu Yuanzhang took Jinling.
When Zhu Yuanzhang stepped into Jinling with his head held high, all the soldiers and horses who were originally under the rule of the Yuan Dynasty turned their guns and submitted to Zhu Yuanzhang's subordinates.
According to the history books, there were more than 500,000 people who surrendered to Zhu Yuanzhang this time.
I feel like there's a lot of moisture in there, and this number is not credible.
Because in Zhu Yuanzhang's subsequent battles, there was no obvious increase in the number of men and horses that could be called, if it was really said that there were 500,000 soldiers and horses, then most of them were naval troops, and they were all wall-to-wall grass that ate dry food and found something to do, and did not fight.
These horses can't play much role at all, and what is really useful is the group of pro-soldiers who have followed Zhu Yuanzhang to rebel from the beginning.
And these guys who are on the verge of rebellion are simply a bunch of miscellaneous fish.
A bunch of scum scum who fall in the wind.
They will not really surrender to Zhu Yuanzhang's door at all.
They will only report for one purpose, that is, whoever has a big head, a thick neck, a lot of gold, and a hard pole, they will obey whomever commands.
If one day another bastard who looks more powerful than the deflated man in front of him and is even more desperate than him comes out, they will not hesitate to betray the revolution again, and even do not hesitate to give the master in front of him who bowed down to his subordinates a second ago at the same time.
This kind of thing is really not difficult for them.
However, there are indeed several usable characters in this, and there are three people in particular who are particularly important.
The names of these three are: Kang Maocai, Feng Guoyong (the elder brother of the general Feng Guosheng), and Yang Xian.
It can be said that these three people played a crucial role in Zhu Yuanzhang's subsequent war with Chen Youliang.
After Zhu Yuanzhang took Jinling, in the face of the soldiers and civilians who surrendered everywhere, in order to win the hearts of the people and stabilize the regime, and also to consolidate the regime, Zhu Yuanzhang said something full of righteousness, at least in terms of performance: Folks, friends, old and young masters, the regime under the rule of the Yuan Dynasty is devastated, and the areas under the control of the Yuan army are full of soldiers.
It was also at this time that I led my personal guards to come here, and the main purpose was to eliminate violence and peace for you, and to eliminate harm to the people, and I absolutely did not mean to harm you.
What do you do in normal times, what should you feed the sheep, what you should feed the chickens, what you should do that should be the donkeys, just if we don't exist.
Of course, if anyone knows who a sage is, then you might as well tell me, and I will invite him to follow my brother and me to make a contribution. If anyone knows which bastard is the kind of king who is proud of bullying the people and oppressing the people, then he might as well tell us, anyway, being idle is idle, as a person sent by God to save you from fire and water, I will take this evil breath for you, whether he is the king of heaven or the scum scum wearing a triangle, I will solve him for you.
After saying such a thing, the soldiers and civilians who were originally submissive seemed to feel the kindness of this person, and realized his huge mind of not liking things and not pity, so they treated him and his troops very happily.
Looking at the group of jubilant people in front of him, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was full of righteousness on the surface, must have blossomed in his heart.
That's what he wants, that's the atmosphere he wants to make.
Only those who win the hearts of the people can win the world.
Since the place with a big fart in Heyang can't be owned by himself, let the uncle and I get Jinling, the capital of the ancient emperors.
Under the difficulty of graciousness, I naturally accepted it gladly.
After pacifying the people, Zhu Yuanzhang, as the commander, delivered a majestic speech, saying a that even he didn't know what he said, anyway, even coaxing and threatening to blackmail, he handed over all the trivial things to his subordinates to deal with, and he himself led the general Xu Da to climb the Jinling city wall.
Before today, as landlubbers, they could only watch the grand scene of Jinling from a distance, but from now on, the poor peasant turned into a landlord will be the real master of this ancient city from now on.
Stepping on the high city wall, overlooking the extremely luxurious grand occasion in front of him, in order to prevent the tall and mighty but two-eyed flower arrangement, the spring peach river ceremony is as dark as the yaksha guy to meet the status quo, and in order to encourage him to continue to move forward and expand his ambition to expand his power, as a former fellow, has always been small, later comrade-in-arms, and now subordinate, as a general above 10,000 people in an army, Xu Da said something else: Jinling is such a strong city, as the Yangtze River moat of the ancient empire, We have taken down such a dangerous city today, what else can be difficult for us?
As long as we all work together, what else can we not create?
And just delivered a speech, the mood is still very rippling, the excitement is far from calming, the high blood is still slightly boiling Zhu Yuanzhang after hearing Xu Da's conversation like a sycophant, the excitement became more intense, and said: "It is definitely not an accident that the husband can achieve a meritorious career, and today we can lay down Jinling, which is the arrangement given to us by God." ("Ming Shilu": Success is not accidental.) Now that I have this, I have been bestowed by heaven. )
When I read this sentence, I felt that Zhu Yuanzhang's words were not finished, and his real intention should be hidden in the unspoken words later.
Today's laying of Jinling is an arrangement given to us by God. Since God has helped us, then what else do we have to hesitate about.
The opportunity must not be lost and will not come again, in order to overthrow the Yuan Dynasty, I will oppose, and I will do it in order to break the old and establish the new.
His words should also be a signal to those who don't know where to go in the future: men, women, brothers and sisters, compatriots, you are sent by the Celestial Empire to manage you, you all come and submit to me, I am the real orthodoxy here, I am the real Son of Heaven.
What you have here is food, clothing, and riding, and you have endless glory and wealth in your hands, and you can only see a better tomorrow if you submit to us.
At the same time, he seems to be a signal to those Diao people who are not obedient to his rule: You people who dare not submit to me, I am here today to conquer you on behalf of the Heavenly King Lao Tzu, if you are interested, you can quickly disarm and surrender to the uncle, you guys see that you guys look like people, at least better looking than the uncle, I will spare you first.
If you know that Uncle I am coming, and you dare to insist on rebellion, then you can only be sorry for you.
I'm going to get angry, I'm representing Heaven, I'm representing the Heavenly Government, and I'm shooting you.
You may be the role of the king and hegemon in the local area, but what are my soldiers and horses, my soldiers and horses are heavenly soldiers, my soldiers and horses are heavenly soldiers, I am leading the will of God to conquer you, in front of my heavenly soldiers and generals, you group of people who only know how to dance knives and guns are just pediatrics, but just a group of swaggering games.
If you dare to make a mistake, I will slaughter you deflated three.
If you dare to be presumptuous, I'll cook you bastards.
That is, in this situation of hot head, dizzy eyes, and instant short circuit of elm head, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the celebration to: Ying Tianfu (a mansion that conforms to the will of the Celestial Empire).
He also appointed Liao Yongan as the marshal of the unified army, and Zhao Zhong as the deputy marshal, guarding the most important city in front of Yingtianfu: Taiping.
In order to suppress the hard-won Jinling, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had not practiced Sun Monkey's Variety Doppelganger Technique, had no choice but to stay and personally went out to guard Jinling.
Then Xu Da was assigned as the marshal of the army to capture Zhenjiang.
When everyone was leaving, Zhu Yuanzhang, as the commander of the first army, called everyone together.
As the supreme commander, Zhu Yuanzhang stood in front of everyone, looking at the current group of heroes on one side of the battle, looking at this group of people who were like wild horses that had escaped as long as they were released, and the four donkeys couldn't pull them back, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say any more nonsense that won over the people and fooled the citizens but was not nutritious.
In front of everyone, he showed his unique character as a manager, he counted all kinds of mistakes in the past, listed all kinds of mistakes that he had made, rebuked them, and seemed to have set up a tiger chair and pepper water in the backyard, ready to punish after reprimanding.
And at this time, Li Shanchang, who is a Wenchen, stood up, and Li Shanchang, who is good at playing sloppy, gave full play to the work on the corner of his mouth as a Wenchen, as if he begged Zhu Yuanzhang like a thin mud, scolding can scold and don't beat, they are all big men, they lose the face of men after being beaten, and kill more men's heroism, they are all commanders in the army, if they are beaten today, how can they establish their prestige in front of their subordinates in the future.
It was only after some and muddy obstruction that the crowd was spared punishment.
The son is not strict with the teacher's fault, and the son is not strict with the teacher's laziness.
Looking at the group of unassuming things in front of him, and at the few guys in front of him who looked oily but looked much better than himself, Zhu Yuanzhang finally said something shocking to everyone after the punishment failed.
Roughly speaking, I have a small black book here that records the mistakes of each of you. Today I will not list your feats one by one, if you can be strict with yourself from now on, I will not be responsible for your past mistakes.
But if you still can't control your virtue after going out this time, and you lose face and lose face to my uncle, then I can only endure the pain and cut love, and we will settle the new and old accounts together.
Another point, after going out today, not only on behalf of yourself, what you do is on behalf of my face, on behalf of the face of all of us, so you must not only be strict with yourself, but also control your subordinates, few of your guys are good at eating dry food, if they don't obey your constraints, then pull me out and cut him, if anyone has indulged in the misdeeds of his subordinates and is known, then I will cut you.
If you don't believe me, we'll try.
Look at whether your neck is hard, or my knife is hard.
At this time, everyone finally reacted, and they looked up at the man in front of them with a pig's waist-like face, and his dark and bright eyes flashed with timidity.
Mom, you know what you've done before, and you're watching your every move.
You are too inauthentic, the most fundamental trust between people?
What should be harmony between people?
Thinking that there is a pair of dark eyes around me all the time, and what I do every day is seen in the eyes and remembered in my heart, this kind of life of being watched is really like pins and needles and painful.
After I go back today, I will first find out this undercover agent who is lurking by my side.
Otherwise, I won't be able to live this life.
Mother's, just do it, go back and slaughter this spy.
Let you smack my little report again!
