Si Xingfang and Chen Hoop were stunned for a moment, it seems that Liang Shanjun really only allowed them to raise the flag to rebel, but did not allow us to pull the flag to rebel.

And although Lin Chong did not say it explicitly, the implication was clear, once the Mingjiao acted and caused turmoil in the southeast, and many innocent people died tragically, the Liangshan army would not only not become an ally, but would also help the imperial court to exterminate itself.

Si Xingfang was a rough man, and he felt that the conversation had collapsed, and it was not interesting to stay here, so he immediately wanted to get up and say goodbye.

Chen Hoop Bucket hurriedly patted his hand to signal that he should not be impatient, and then looked at Lin Chong and said: "Lin Jun Master does not want us to raise the flag to rebel, the reason has been understood, and after I go back, I will truthfully tell Sect Master Fang and the brothers in the sect."

I wonder if Master Lin has anything else to teach us? Furthermore, if we don't raise the banner of rebellion, what should we do? ”

"Zhao Ji has promised to stop Huashigang, as long as you don't raise the flag to rebel, you can do anything."

Lin Chong said lightly, he had been paying attention to the expressions of the two, and seeing that Chen Hoop was still thoughtful, without the slightest resentment or unhappiness, he couldn't help but appreciate him more and more.

Thinking of the performance of this person in the original historical time and space, after the rebel army of Fang La captured Hangzhou, Chen Hoop Bucket thought that it was unwise to guard the south of the Yangtze River, and suggested that Fang La should first occupy Huizhou and Muzhou and then implement a pro-people move, win the hearts of the people, establish military prestige, and then take the capital directly. If a unified regime cannot be established, then the territory will be closed.

Because of the limitations of intelligence, Chen Hoop Bucket did not know that the Jurchens in the north had risen, nor did he know that the Western Army had been assembled to prepare for the Northern Expedition to Liao, and in this case, Chen Hoop Bucket's suggestion was undoubtedly very strategic.

Because the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty has long been abolished, hundreds of thousands of rebel troops (peasants) have hit Bianjing City in one go, and it is really possible to break through Bianjing City like the Huangchao Uprising in the late Tang Dynasty to break through Chang'an, and then coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes to form a separatist force.

Also in that historical time and space, Taixue General Lu also joined the Fangla rebel army, and his idea was to first seize Jinling, which was not heavily guarded, hold the Yangtze River, and then take advantage of the situation to seize the southeast prefecture and county.

The suggestions of the two are undoubtedly relatively correct, but Lu Jiang is more realistic, and Chen Hoop is more risky.

It's a pity that Fang La's vision is too short-sighted, and he only focuses on the prefectures and counties south of Zhejiang and Jiangnan, because at that time, there were many people in these places who responded to the uprising, and Fang La was afraid that these places would be occupied by other rebel leaders, and these people would not listen to him at that time.

At the same time, Fang La also felt that the administrative efficiency of the imperial court was extremely low, and it was impossible to send heavy troops to help in a short period of time, so he stubbornly let the main army of the rebel army go south, and in the north of the main block, only one of Fang Qifo's partial divisions was sent.

As a result, I didn't expect the official army to come so quickly, and the rebel army suddenly fell into great passivity, and finally collapsed quickly.

This is naturally due to the fact that the combat effectiveness of the rebel army is not good, Fang La's strategic vision is not good, and he is short-sighted, but at the same time, it also reflects the strategy of Chen Hoop and General Lü, and the political and military vision is extraordinary.

Especially Chen Hoop Bucket, from his name, I know that he is just a hoop cooper, a low-level craftsman, it is rare to have such vision and courage.

Seeing that Chen Hoop looked like he was humbly asking for advice, Lin Chong said unceremoniously at the moment: "Chen Junshi really wants to listen?" ”

"Please also ask the Lin military master to give advice."

This guy talks in a crepe, hasn't he read a book for a few years? Lin Chong guessed in his heart, his eyes met the two, but he suddenly said: "Lin Mou has always spoken straightforwardly, I am afraid that the two of them will be unhappy when he says it, Chen Junshi is a person who can calm down, but the Si (Apologetic) Dharma King is irritable, if Chen Junshi really wants to listen, I will only tell Chen Junshi alone." ”

The two of them were stunned for a moment, and Si Xingfang looked very annoyed, but Chen Hoop Bucket appeased him again, so Lin Chong called Yu Chi Bin to come in and took Si Xingfang outside to visit, and Lin Chong and Chen Hoop Bucket were left in the tent.

Lin Chong said slowly: "As I said earlier, in less than a year after the Jurchen rebelled, they won a great victory of 20,000 and 700,000 in the Battle of Dagang, and laid down a large territory of almost the entire Liaodong.

The rebellion of my Liangshan army will now be a year, and what I have done is actually no worse than that of the Jurchens.

At present, the strength of our Liangshan army has reached more than 170,000 (before going to the Liao State, I recruited troops and collected 50,000 soldiers and horses from the imperial court; The Liao State surrendered 30,000 elite cavalry of the Khitan and Xi people; 20,000 Han troops in Jingzhou and 20,000 Haoqiang Township troops; This time, defeating more than 100,000 imperial court soldiers and horses can collect about 40,000), and we have also defeated the Jurchen elite with fewer victories and more victories.

Now that the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty is firmly dragged by the Western Thieves, and the other forbidden armies of the Great Song Dynasty are all in ruins, as mentioned earlier, in fact, my Liangshan Army does not need to form an alliance with anyone at all, and it can beat all the military prefectures of the Great Song Dynasty one by one within two years.

But we didn't do this, and even withdrew our troops immediately after taking the Bianjing Chen Bridge Gate. ”

Chen Hoop was shocked and pondered for a long time, and then said: "The Lin military master doesn't want to fight with the Great Song Dynasty before the Jurchen is eliminated, and let the Jurchens take advantage of it for nothing?"

In my opinion, although the Western Army was dragged by the Western thieves at this time, once that time came, the imperial court would definitely transfer the Western Army to King Qin, even if it was to give up the Northwest! When the time comes, the world will be in chaos, and the lives of the people will be ruined......"

Lin Chong nodded in appreciation, but suddenly asked, "Brother Chen, don't you have read books for two years?" Aren't you a coooper? ”

Chen Hoop Bucket couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It's indeed a hoop bucket in Xia, but I did read a few years of county school when I was a child, and I knew a few words." ”

Lin Chong nodded, even though the Song Dynasty was not good in all its aspects, it still did a very good job in terms of literary style and education.

The so-called county school, that is, the lowest level of the government-run schools in the Song Dynasty, was funded by the government and allocated to the school fields to give economic support, which was an important institution for the Song Dynasty to promote education and cultivate talents.

Generally speaking, as long as the economic conditions are still acceptable, the children will be sent to study for two days.

At the same time, this is also an important reason why the Song Dynasty won the hearts of the people, and the literati and doctors were able to grasp the right to speak and firmly suppress the martial arts.

Lin Chong smiled and said, "Brother Chen is right, but he is only half right!" ”

Chen Hoop didn't think there was anything wrong with Lin Chong's title, but just smiled lightly: "I'm ignorant, please also ask Lin Jun to teach me." ”

"Actually, I said it before, and that is the human heart! Song Zuo is not declining, at this time the people's hearts are still on the side of the Song Dynasty, even if the Song Dynasty is not doing well, it is still good for readers, and readers represent the right to speak, on behalf of public opinion guidance. ”

Chen Hoop Bucket frowned slightly, roughly thinking about the two new words of discourse power and public opinion orientation, and then he raised his eyebrows slightly, signaled to be taught, and said: "That's why Master Lin said that even if the Liangshan Army beats all the military and state governments in the world one by one, but the people's hearts are not attached, it will only make the world become a plate of scattered sand and chaos in the world at that time?" ”

Lin Chong nodded and said, "That's what it means." Therefore, at the beginning, the Liangshan Army played the banner of doing the right thing for the heavens and protecting the territory and the people, and then issued the "Discussion of Zhao Weiwen", and in the future, it will also play the banner of recovering Yanyun and reproducing the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

Brother Chen can go to Jeju and Yunzhou to see, our Liangshan army is building water conservancy in the two places, widely practicing benevolent government, and benefiting countless people, all of which are nothing more than to compete with Zhao and Song for the hearts of the people.

My Liangshan army is still like this, if Fang La raises the banner and rebels, dare to ask, whether in terms of force or fighting for people's hearts, can he do better than my Liangshan army? ”

Chen Hoop Bucket was solemn again, and hurriedly said: "Incomparable, incomparable!" ”

Lin Chong also had something to say at this time: "According to Lin, the teachings of the Ming Sect are really very problematic!" Mingjiao is a foreign religion, incompatible with traditional Chinese culture, and can not compete with the Confucian culture that has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and penetrated into the bone marrow.

In my opinion, even if the Mingjiao rebellion raised the banner and could get the support of the people in the southeast who hated Zhu Mian and Hua Shigang at the beginning, it must be difficult to achieve great things in the end, because he could not get the support of the scholars in the world, nor could he get the support of more people in other regions!

Presumably Chen Junshi also knew that in the eyes of most people, the Ming Sect was a demon who acted strangely! At that time, as long as the imperial court uses this as an excuse, Mingjiao will inevitably be opposed by all the people in the world.

Not to mention that now Zhao Ji agreed to dismiss Hua Shigang under the threat of the Liangshan Army, presumably when this news reaches the southeast, most of the resentment in the hearts of the people in the southeast will be eliminated immediately, and how many people will follow Fang La to rebel at that time? ”

Lin Chong thought of the Taiping Rebellion of a certain dynasty in later generations, in fact, the Taiping Army had already defeated the imperial army without the power to fight back, and the final elimination of the Taiping Army was actually the township army (Hunan army and township army) organized by the Confucian landlord class such as Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang.

Why? It is because of the Confucian landlord class such as Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang that the Han elite believes that the Qing Dynasty occupied the world, but at least the traditional Chinese culture (mainly referring to Confucianism), the roots of China are still there.

However, wherever the Taiping army went, all the temples were demolished, including the Confucian Temple, Yue Fei Temple, and Guandi Temple, and the Buddha statues were smashed, and the Confucius statues and Guan Gong statues were also smashed; In Tianjing City (Nanjing City), Chaotianguan, Confucius Temple, Bailuzhou, Jiming Temple, Mochou Lake, Linggu Temple, Dabao'en Temple Tower and other famous places were all barbarically destroyed, and a large number of Confucian classics were burned.

This is the root of the severed transformation!

However, Zeng Guofan, Zuo Zongtang, and Li Hongzhang are all traditional Confucian intellectuals, and naturally they do not want to see thousands of years of etiquette and humanity in China.

Zeng Guofan and others actually fought not for the imperial court, but for the roots of Chinese culture, for Confucius and Mencius, for Confucianism, Taoism, Guan Gong belief and all other traditional cultures!

In the same way, if the Fangla group, which believes in Mingjiao, really rises, it will inevitably be supported by all Confucian forces and even all the people.

Even the people who participated in the Fangla Uprising at the beginning will gradually turn their backs on him, after all, the Ming Sect can't eat meat, who wants to.

When Lin Chong said these words, he still paid attention to the change in Chen Hoop's expression, and saw that he had no "faith" and was very angry and excited when he was insulted, and he still looked thoughtful.

It seems that this product doesn't believe in Mingjiao very much.

At this time, Lin Chong Xueba's mind remembered some information about Chen Hoop Bucket that he saw in his previous life, it seemed that this thing was caught in prison for stealing dogs, and was later rescued by fellow villager Huo Chengfu, and then Huo Chengfu introduced him to Fang La, the leader of the Ming Sect.

Stealing dogs must be to eat dog meat, and Mingjiao does not eat meat, so it seems that Chen Hoop Bucket should not have believed in Mingjiao before, but only because of his fellow villager Huo Chengfu that he joined Mingjiao.

Immediately, Lin Chong thought that in the original history, General Lü also joined the Fangla Rebel Army, and General Lü was a genuine student, a disciple of Confucianism, and he would definitely not teach that set of theories, so he also joined the Fangla Rebel Army.

From this point of view, General Lu and Chen Hoop should not believe in Mingjiao, but they really can't get used to the darkness of Zhao Song and Huashigang, so they join the Fang La group and rebel.

That is to say, Chen Hoop Bucket is actually not very loyal to Mingjiao and Fang La, just to overthrow Zhao Song.

Thinking of this, Lin Chong didn't know what to think, and immediately smiled and said, "Brother Chen, you shouldn't believe in Mingjiao, right?" Since Brother Chen has also studied for a few years, he should know that in history, anyone who rebelled under the banner of religion has never succeeded.

Fang La is destined not to have a good result, since Brother Chen does not believe in Mingjiao, it is better to break away from Mingjiao as soon as possible, jump ship to my Liangshan army, gather together, compete with Zhao Song for the hearts of the people, recover Yanyun together, and resist the Jurchens, isn't it beautiful? ”

Chen Hoop was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly again, and said: "Don't tell lies in front of real people, what Master Lin said is right, in fact, not only do you not believe in Mingjiao, but even Brother Si doesn't believe it in his heart, but he hates Huashigang for harming the people's ears!"

To tell the truth, the Si brothers were originally a wealthy family, but they were ruined by Hua Shigang......

It's just that the good brothers under me are all in Mingjiao, and I can't be sorry for my brothers......"

He paused, and then said: "The Lin army lord Jin Yu has listened to the good words, but I want me to apostatize now, but I can't do it anyway, if the Lin army lord really looks down on the next one, give me some time and let me go back next......"

Lin Chong couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said in his heart that he had crossed over so far, and finally the spirit of the king had exploded once, and he could say that Chen Hoop's heart was towards Liangshan with just one word.

Not only that, but he also has to go back and pull Huo Chengfu and the others out of Mingjiao, and when the time comes, they will definitely join the Liangshan Army.

Sure enough, when the time comes, heaven and earth are all working together, and now the Liangshan army is not only strong and strong, but also defeated the imperial court more than 100,000 troops in one fell swoop, broke through the city of Bianjing, and the prestige is rising, and the general trend of being equal to the imperial court has been achieved, and it is natural that it can attract heroes from all over the world to flock to vote.

"Good! Then I'll wait for Brother Chen and Brother Huo in Liangshanbo......"

At that moment, Lin Chong was overjoyed, and instructed Chen Hoop to pay attention to everything, as well as some benefits that Liang Shanjun gave to Mingjiao in business, and so on.

At this time, I heard Mei Jiasheng come to report again, but it was Wang Qing's people from Jingxi who wanted to see him again.

It seems that the battle he fought with the imperial court has shocked the world, not only Fang La sent people to pay close attention, Wang Qing, and even Tian Hu's people are also paying close attention.

Since they have paid attention, then the heroes and heroes of the world, and even the people of the world, are also paying close attention. 8)
