Chapter 249: Answer
If Li Guangrong didn't mention it, Ye Xun really forgot that he had such an old-timer as Wang Zhen, but it seems that this senior's behavior has nothing to do with him, right?
To say that the most impressive thing about this old-timer should be that he successfully fooled Emperor Yingzong out of the palace, and then was successfully captured by Wachi in Tumu Fort, and more than 400,000 troops were almost wiped out.
When Ye Xun saw this period of history, he even wondered if Wang Zhen was also sent undercover in Daming first, otherwise how could he do such a stupid thing?
Ye Xun remembered that there seemed to be a predecessor in the history of the Ming Dynasty who was also very tiger, thinking that if he won the palace, he would be able to become the emperor, but the result can be imagined, but Ye Xun really couldn't remember who this eunuch predecessor who was more magical than him was.
Ye Xun understood that the reason why Li Guangrong asked him this was because he was afraid that he would rebel, and if that was the case, they, the Liaodong generals, would fall into a dilemma.
If you follow the rebellion, you will ruin your loyalty, and if you don't rebel, you are not Ye Xun's opponent, so Li Guangrong's words can also be said to have asked the voice of most of the Liaodong generals.
After a cold wind, snowflakes drifted in the sky, and as far as the eye could see, the sky and the earth were foggy, and everywhere was a silvery white color.
Ye Xun did not stop in Guangning, rested for the night, and set off early the next morning.
Li Guangrong, as the chief soldier of Guangning, of course, came to see him off, but because Ye Xun did not answer his question yesterday, he always looked preoccupied.
Ye Xun naturally knew what Li Guangrong was thinking, the two rode side by side, and Li Guangrong consciously lagged half a horse's head behind to show his respect for Ye Xun.
"General Li, what do you think the people want most? What are the Tartars most afraid of? ”
Li Guangrong was stunned for a moment, and replied without thinking: "What do the people want?" Of course, it's full and warm, but if you want to talk about Tartar! I should be most afraid of my father-in-law."
Ye Xun shook his head with a smile and said, "You guy, why did you learn to pat on the back?" ”
After a pause, he said: "What you said earlier is right, but not all right, let me tell you what the people want most, in addition to food and clothing, what the people want most is to be respected and recognized, before me, the officers and soldiers on the front line have been defeated repeatedly, not to mention the loss of power and land, the most sinful people are the people, the officials can run away, who has thought about the people who have lived in this land for generations?" ”
"Ye doesn't have much ambition, he just wants to rely on his own strength to stop my Han family from being bullied, is this also wrong? Just because I didn't go along with those officials, I was ostracized by almost everyone, and even put all kinds of hats on me, and they wanted to put me to death."
"Huh! Others want me to die, but Lao Tzu doesn't let them get their way, I won't rebel, but this traitor is decided, because the people here need me as a traitor."
"Actually, General Li might as well think about it from another perspective, who are those people who hate me?"
"Finally, I would like to remind General Li that if you still follow me, you may have to bear all kinds of sanctions from the imperial court, if you don't want to stay in Liaodong, please also ask General Li to make a decision as soon as possible."
Ye Xun didn't say the rest of the words, but the meaning was already very clear, if Li Guangrong still wanted to stay in Guangning as a chief soldier, he had to listen to him Ye Xun, otherwise he could only get out.
Listening to Ye Xun's tirade, Li Guangrong couldn't help but fall into deep contemplation.
After Ye Xun started in Liaodong, didn't he do it for the sake of Liaodong? And Liaodong is an inseparable territory of the Ming Dynasty, that is to say, Ye Xun has always been serving the country.
If this is the case, then why are so many people shooting at him openly and secretly? And as Ye Xun said, who are the people who have always been enemies of Ye Xun?
Needless to say, the Li Chengliang family in Liaodong, Zhang Heming, the former secretary of the military department, the Zheng Guifei family in the inner hall, several big eunuchs, and the White Lotus Sect, etc., are too many.
Counting them up, which of these people really cares about the military and civilians?
Unconsciously, Li Guangrong, who was bowing his head and pondering, slowed down, and his guards naturally slowed down.
Ye Xun and his entourage did not stop at all, Ye Xun knew that what he had just said was too much, and Li Guangrong still needed time to digest it.
After a distance from Li Guangrong and his party, Li Guangrong suddenly woke up, to be honest, his mood at the moment was indeed very chaotic.
The value of military generals is reflected in the battlefield, crisscrossing the battlefield, and exalting their prestige outside the territory, which is the lifelong dream of every military general.
Judging from the relationship between Ye Xun and the imperial court now, staying in Liaodong is bound to offend the imperial court and the new emperor, and if he wants to leave Liaodong, he is really reluctant.
At this moment, Ye Xun in front of him suddenly grabbed his crotch and dismounted, turned to Li Guangrong and said loudly: "I forgot to tell General Li that what the Tartars are most afraid of is that our Han people work together..."
After speaking, he didn't say anything, turned and whipped his horse away, leaving only a splash of snowflakes behind him.
Everything that should be said has been said, if a veteran general like Li Guangrong in Liaodong still refuses to follow him, then he can only let them leave Liaodong.
Although Ye Xun wanted to return to Shenyang as soon as possible, he still had to go to Liaoyang to meet Yuan Yingtai first.
In the past few months since Ye Xun left Liaodong, Comrade Yuan can be said to have fulfilled his promise to Ye Xun very well, despite the continuous pressure from the Ministry of War, Yuan Yingtai did not remove a general promoted by Ye Xun, and during this period without Ye Xun, Liaodong can be stable as before, and Yuan Yingtai has made great contributions.
It's just that everything has changed now, and Ye Xun must also know Yuan Yingtai's attitude, otherwise if this old man makes trouble in the back, it will really be enough for Ye Xun to bear.
On the way to Liaoyang, Ye Xun and his entourage met Cao Bianjiao and Zhang Qi who came to greet him.
They were ordered by Ye Xun to lead three thousand iron horsemen to greet them, because Ye Xun brought too many supplies, and he couldn't go there to carry them all, so he planned to let Cao Bianjiao and others escort the materials back to Shenyang first.
Seeing Ye Xun and his party from a distance, the three thousand iron horsemen dismounted collectively, and then knelt down on one knee on the side of the road, welcoming the return of the hero in their hearts with their most sincere actions.
Seeing the centaurs he brought out single-handedly, Ye Xun's eyes were also a little moist, and he jumped off the horse and walked forward quickly.
Cao Bianjiao and Zhang Qi were even more exaggerated, they rushed over, and knelt directly at Ye Xun's feet, "Wow, wow" and cried.
"You two bastards, you should be happy to see Lao Tzu, why are you still crying? Roll up for Lao Tzu."
Ye Xun said one by one, pulled the two up, looked at the two carefully, and saw that both of them seemed to have lost some weight, but they were more energetic, with a handful of snot and tears on their faces, but they didn't know how to wipe it, they just couldn't stop smirking at Ye Xun.
Ye Xun was moved in his heart, patted the shoulders of the two, and said: "Brothers have worked hard, I thank you, thank you for everything you have done for the people of Liaodong and for my Ming Dynasty."
The last sentence was shouted at all the soldiers in a loud voice.
"Swear allegiance to my father-in-law!" ...
I don't know who started first and shouted with everyone...
