Genius remembered for a second, "Love ♂ ÷ small? Say →', provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Li Hongshen's body, Zhu Shaohong didn't have time to dispose of it, Ma Mingda wanted to take it back at that time, but he didn't allow it.

Zhu Shaoyu didn't even let people build the coffin, only let the guards simply wrap it in a mat, and the head was packed in a wooden box, probably preparing to wait for the others to be caught, and then send them to the Beijing Division after disposal.

Li Xiuwen hesitated for a while holding the wooden box, then opened it and glanced at it hurriedly, then immediately closed it, put it together with the body, took a few steps back and knelt on the ground, and knocked his head three times.

Then he ordered his own soldiers to send his father's body home, and then turned to the palace guard and said, "Take me to see the prince." ”

"Yes, please come with me, sir."

As the guard spoke, he led the way and led Li Xiuwen and the others to another room, and Zhu Huaiyu and Zhu Lunkun, who had been following behind, immediately pounced and cried bitterly.

When he came out, Li Xiuwen saw Ma Mingda and Zhao Xiong outside the door, so he said to Zhao Xiong: "I have sent the news in advance, Yuanliang should return to Kaifeng soon." ”

Zhao Xiong was relieved at this time, and nodded slowly, knowing very well in his heart that he was letting Li Xiuwen rebel together, and there was no choice at all.

Li Xiuwen's eyes fell on Ma Mingda, and the meaning is self-evident, do you want to stay in Kaifeng and be a thief with me, or are you resolutely loyal to the imperial court?

Ma Mingda's expression was very complicated, and he was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Let the old man go back and think about it." ”

Li Xiuwen bowed his head lightly, naturally understanding that Ma Mingda also had his own difficulties. As a literati who has read poetry and books, it is rare for him to be able to say this.

At this moment, two soldiers from the Shenji Battalion came over with an official who was about fifty years old, and reported: "My lord, this person is the chief of the palace, what do you think should be done?" ”

"Poof—"

The prince suddenly knelt down and begged for mercy: "My lord, spare your life, the lower officials have always been loyal to the prince, and we can be regarded as our own people." ”

Li Xiuwen looked at him for a while before he spoke: "Then you can prepare a letter and send it to Jingshi." Let's just say that His Royal Highness the King of Zhou died of illness, and the son Zhu Shaoye was murdered by traitors, and the official has executed Zhu Shaoye, the person involved, on the spot. ”

This so-called traitor naturally refers to Yang Sichang. Li Xiuwen didn't think to ask for Zhu Youzhen's consent at all, but he just deliberately sent him angry.

"Xia Guan understands!"

Wang Changshi secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and went back to write the excerpt.

At this moment, another soldier reported: "My lord, those officials are excited, saying that you rebelled against the imperial court, and your crime is ...... Punished. ”

In this Kaifeng Mansion, there are still many officials who are "loyal" to the Ming Dynasty!

Previously, they didn't know the inside story, and they could still be co-opted by Li Xiuwen and Zhu Shaoye, but now Li Xiuwen openly rebelled, which would naturally cause them to backlash.

Li Xiuwen smiled, and then ordered in a cold voice: "Take down all these people who talk nonsense and execute them on the spot!" ”

"Don't—"

Ma Mingda and Zhao Xiong spoke out at the same time to dissuade them, but Li Xiuwen shook his head firmly, waved his hand to interrupt their next words, and said: "These people will only talk about it, and it is not beneficial to keep it. On weekdays, they just go up and down, deceive and deceive, and I won't say much about this. Now is a critical juncture, but those who have different positions will not be tolerated! ”

Seeing that the two of them were stunned, Li Xiuwen casually added: "Master Ma and Lord Zhao are not in this case. ”

The two of them nodded slightly, and for a moment they had not recovered from the shock in their hearts. [愛↑去△小↓說△網 Qu ] They didn't expect that Li Xiuwen's methods would be so ruthless today.

But when they thought about it, they were relieved. Now that he has rebelled against the imperial court, how can he achieve great things if he is soft-hearted?

After learning of Li Hongshen's death, Li Xiuwen's mood has changed dramatically, changing his previous kindness and acting decisively and ruthlessly.

As the saying goes, "mercy is not in charge of soldiers, love is not in charge, righteousness is not finance, and goodness is not an official". If you want to rebel, you don't need to look ahead and backward, you can kill when you need to!

If you don't kill him, his head is rolling and blood is all over the ground, how can he deter one side?

In troubled times, we must use heavy canons, the death of the Ming Dynasty, the real death of the Wenchen, do not kill some empty talk of literati, how can we save this unbearable society?

If there are still people who dare to shout nonsense, Li Xiuwen does not mind repeating the "Heyin Change".

There are more people who want to be officials, and they are afraid that there will be no talents to take refuge in the future?

After stabilizing the situation in Kaifeng City, Li Xiuwen took Zhu Lunkun to the Sanwei station.

In the past few days, the situation in Kaifeng has changed repeatedly, and these soldiers must have been very panicked, and if they were not appeased in time, they might have a mutiny.

However, these three guards and horses were originally recruited and trained by Zhu Shaoye himself, and now Zhu Shaoye has killed the imperial court, and he has set up his son to become the new master, and if he appeases them, he should be able to arouse the hatred of these people.

Rebel?

They only recognize the son, how much does the court have to do with them?

Zhu Lunkun is young, and Li Xiuwen is basically in charge of all affairs.

There are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in the three guards, and Zhu Shaoye has always been in charge of the troops himself, and only the three guards have been set up, and there is no chief military officer. After thinking about it for a long time, Li Xiuwen decided to add two additional commanders, the chief soldier and the deputy chief soldier, and take charge of the three guards. The general soldier was held by Yang Zhenlai, and the post of deputy chief soldier was temporarily vacant.

Yang Zhen has followed Zhu Shaoye for many years, and he should still be able to trust. However, in order to prevent his ambition from breeding and a mutiny, Li Xiuwen decided to wait for Han Lin to come back and let him serve as the deputy commander of the three guards to prevent Yang Zhen from dictatorship.

Zhu Lunkun has no opinion on this, he is too young, coupled with his trust in Li Xiuwen, naturally he will not have any objections to his decision.

For the three guards and horses of the palace, Li Xiuwen did not have too many requirements, as long as they could guard Kaifeng without losing it, it was enough.

These three guards and horses have been trained by Zhu Shaoye for more than a year, and their combat strength must not be too bad, and those unbearable officers and soldiers of the local guards cannot have the strength of an enemy at all.

The Ming Dynasty has reached the verge of extinction, so don't expect the officers and soldiers of the guard to fight, it's good not to run away when you see the enemy coming. Otherwise, how could Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai and other peasant armies break through various prefectures and counties one after another?

In fact, the combat effectiveness of these rebel armies was very poor. They claim to be hundreds of thousands of people, but in fact they are all dragged with their families, and there may be less than a third of the people who can really fight.

And among these thirds of the people, not many people have armor, and the weapons may be hoes and other things.

But such a team can make the Ming Dynasty restless, and the difference in the combat strength of the officers and soldiers of the guard can be imagined.

This is why Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting were able to break the rebel army by only leading about 10,000 men and horses.

And now, these few generals are incomparable to many other border generals.

Why?

The system is collapsing!

The military households of the Ming Dynasty were hereditary, and their status was not as good as that of ordinary people, and the treatment was not very good.

In these years, how many people are willing to serve in the army?

This is not counting, almost half of the military salaries issued by the imperial court every time are deducted by the upper officials, and only about half are actually distributed to the barracks.

And this half, it has to go through the hands of the main general, and some more deductions, and the soldiers at the bottom will not have much money left in their hands.

In fact, these generals can't be completely blamed, the military salaries issued by the imperial court are not enough, and now the treasury is empty, even if the generals don't deduct some, the army can't be stronger. It's better to keep some of it and use it to train some elites.

And these few elites belong to the private soldiers of the generals, generally called "family ding" or "pro-ding".

These servants were treated with the best, were well armed, had meat to eat, and horses to ride. They naturally understood in their hearts that this was the general's preference for themselves, so they naturally only recognized the generals, not the imperial court.

On the other hand, most of the ordinary soldiers may not even have enough to eat, so how can they be expected to contribute to the war?

Because of this, these pro-soldiers often rarely participate in battles in the front, and when they engage the enemy, the generals will first look at the form in the rear, and if they can't fight, they will directly flee with the pro-soldier squad.

The general soldier only has few requirements for the family members under his command, only three things: one is to be obedient, the second is to dare to fight hard, and the third is to run fast when he is really decided.

Just kidding, how can such a little pro-soldier who has been cultivated with great difficulty be easily lost?

Under normal circumstances, there are thousands of soldiers under his command, and at most there are only more than 100 personal soldiers and dead soldiers, and the rest of the soldiers cannot form combat effectiveness at all.

Of course, Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng are an exception, although the treatment of their soldiers is not as good as that of their families, they can also be called elite. (To be continued.) Reading, a better reading experience.
