Feng Ruoshu knew that Zhu Hongsan had never studied, and when he saw Zhu Hongsan's complacent appearance, he felt that he had the need to take responsibility for educating him.

Feng Ruoshu cleared his throat and asked, "What does the Lord think it takes to sweep the world?" ”

Zhu Hongsan said: "Of course we need troops, weapons, and generals. ”

Feng Ruoshu then asked, "What about after sweeping the world?" ”

Zhu Hongsan said: "That's your scholar's business." ”

Feng Ruoshu nodded, it seems that Zhu Hongsan's thinking is quite clear.

Feng Ruoshu said: "What is needed to sweep the world is force, which can be called domineering. Governing the world requires a slow plan, which requires a royal road. ”

Zhu Hongsan knew that this old guy was going to lecture himself again, so he asked patiently: "The kid doesn't understand, please teach me." ”

Feng Ruoshu nodded, this kind of pleasure of teaching and educating people made him very intoxicated. He continued: "Hegemony refers to the monarch's use of force, power, and criminal law to rule, although this thing is simple, but the side effects are too great, Qin Shi Huang used this method.

And the royal road is that the monarch rules the world with benevolence and righteousness, and rules the world with virtue and government to appease the subjects, which is the method of long-term peace and stability, and Song Renzong used this method. Therefore, it is said that there is a king in the world, and the princes are domineering.

But the royal road and the domineering are not opposites, Zhang Jiuling in the Tang Dynasty said, the royal road is virtuous, and if you don't come, you won't be strong; Domineering and meritorious, not subdued and not armored.

And if you want the world to change from chaos to order, these two methods must complement each other, and Li Shimin and Zhao Kuangyin both use this method. Which one does the lord want to learn? ”

Zhu Hongsan understood what he said, Zhu Hongsan actually did not have a big policy on how to govern the world in the future, after all, he was only the director of the township construction office in later generations, and the village chief had not been a day before.

Zhu Hongsan only knew that if he wanted the world to be stable, he had to rely on these scholars, but he just didn't understand what the truth was. When I heard Feng Ruoshu today, I really realized it.

Zhu Hongsan bowed respectfully and said, "Hearing Mr. today's words, it's really enlightening, the kid used to be a bit of a fool of things. ”

Feng Ruoshu said: "It is normal not to compromise the means when the strength is not as good as others, and the art of war is also treacherous. But when the lord's strength is above others, don't use trickery, then using the royal way is the best policy. ”

Zhu Hongsan said: "I understand. That is to say, when the enemy and I have 10,000 people, it is okay to use means to plan, but when the enemy has 10,000 and I have 1 million, I can directly lead troops to press over, and it is not easy to use any trickery in the face of strength. Isn't that the case, sir? ”

Hearing that Zhu Hongsan understood, Feng Ruoshu smiled and said: "The lord is really smart and has already comprehended." ”

Of course, Zhu Hongsan knew that this was Feng Ruoshu mentioning himself, and no one said anything when he used some means to fight the world, but when the whole world was you, he used some means to his subordinates.

At this time, Zhu Hongsan thought of Zhu Yuanzhang, after Lao Zhu became the emperor, he had no means, he could kill as much as he wanted, and he didn't need to make up the reason, it turned out that this was the royal road.

If Feng Ruoshu knew what he had just taught, let Zhu Hongsan come to such a conclusion, he would be angry and immediately throw himself into the water.

Both of them believed that their goals had been achieved, Feng Ruoshu educated their father-in-law, and Zhu Hongsan established the future governance methods. So the two had a good conversation.

Out of Jining, not far away to Nanyang Town, after here the canal is about to enter Nansi Lake. Zhaoyang Lake, Nanyang Lake, Dushan Lake, and Weishan Lake are collectively referred to as Nansi Lake. In later generations, these four lakes were connected into one and were called Weishan Lake.

But now there is a drought in the north at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and there are still some land barriers between the four hus. In the Ming Dynasty, the canal was not diverted from Weishan Lake to Xuzhou to enter the Yellow River, but entered the Yellow River through Luoma Lake.

Nansi Lake is the largest freshwater lake in Shandong and one of the largest lakes in the north. The canal passes through this place, unlike in the past, when you had to go dozens of miles through a sluice, and sometimes people had to get off the boat and walk.

When you get here, it is not far from Huai'an, and if the road is smooth, you will be able to reach Huai'an in seven or eight days. But Zhu Hongsan did not relax his vigilance.

The water surface of this place is too wide, and the water network on both sides of the lake shore is dense, and there are thousands of people hidden inside, and it is impossible to see it from the outside.

After entering the Nansi Lake area, Zhu Hongsan ordered that one-third of the soldiers must be on duty every night, and the rest of the rest should also lie down in their clothes to prevent anyone from sneaking up.

The first few days were very peaceful, and just when Zhu Hongsan thought that this period was over, the attack came.

On the fourth night of entering Nansi Lake, Zhu Hongsan and Zhu Yujiao were checking each other's bodies. It was a sudden loud bang in my ears.

At this time, Zhu Hongyi shouted outside the door: "Go and see what's going on?" ”

Zhu Hongsan asked, "Big brother, what's wrong?" ”

Zhu Hongyi replied: "A cargo ship loaded with horses in the back suddenly caught fire, and it looks like someone was attacking. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Hongsan was still in the mood to check his body with his wife, and hurriedly put on his clothes and prepared to go out to have a look.

Zhu Yujiao shouted toplessly: "Master, be careful." Zhu Hongsan smiled, touched Zhu Yujiao's tall chest, and said, "How many years have you fought in the war, this is a small scene." After that, he went out.

Before he reached the door, he saw Feng Ruoshu open the door with his clothes on. Zhu Hongsan said: "Sir, don't go out, it's just some bandits, it will be solved in a while, I'll go out and have a look." ”

Feng Ruoshu said: "Lord be careful. Zhu Hongsan nodded in understanding.

When Zhu Hongsan went out, the soldiers had already begun to shoot at the lake, and for a while gunfire rang out. Zhu Hongsan found Zhu Hongyi and asked, "Big brother, how is it?" ”

Zhu Hongyi said: "It's nothing, a small group of bandits, the sound just now was made by them hitting the cargo ship behind with a small boat. However, more than a dozen bandits on board have been killed. ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded and turned his head to look at the lake. The surface of the lake was pitch black, and only a little more than 100 meters could be seen by starlight.

But that's enough, the range of the musket on Zhu Hongsan's side is 200 meters, and it will kill with one hit within a range of 100 meters.

Zhu Hongsan saw that the small boats on the black pressure on the lake were ordinary fishing boats, and there were fifty or sixty of them. A few of them tried to come up and jump into the gang to fight, but they were shot and killed when they came within 100 meters.

Zhu Hongsan saw that there was no problem, and wanted to inform the boatman to speed up and leave this place, and it would be good to get to an open place on the water.

Zhu Hongsan was just about to go to the rear along the side side, but he didn't expect that it was a small boat speeding up and crashing towards the passenger boat, when he heard a loud noise, Zhu Hongsan didn't stop and fell into the water.

Zhu Hongyi was directing the battle at the front at this time, and he didn't notice that Zhu Hongsan fell into the water.

After Zhu Hongsan fell into the water, he was trying to swim back to the big boat, but he didn't expect the big boat to go farther and farther, and Zhu Hongsan couldn't catch up. He shouted a few words in the water, and I don't know if Zhu Hongyi heard it.

Zhu Hongsan saw that the boat behind him was still more than 30 meters away from him, and wanted to wait in the water for a while to get on the back boat. At this moment, a small boat rushed out of the darkness and came to Zhu Hongsan.

Zhu Hongsan couldn't see it well, and was just about to pull out the dagger to prepare for battle, but he didn't expect the gang of heavenly killers on the boat to knock Zhu Hongsan unconscious with wooden oars. Then he went unconscious.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhu Hongsan woke up. I found myself walking on my shoulders by a strong man.

Zhu Hongsan looked up and looked around, and now it was already dawn. Zhu Hongsan saw that there were a group of lake thieves in front of and behind, everyone there, and there was even a guy wearing women's clothes.

Zhu Hongsan moved, and found that his hands and feet were tied. At this moment, the guy who was carrying himself shouted, "What are you messing around? ”

Zhu Hongsan was stunned when he heard the voice, this guy turned out to be a woman. Mother, the guy who can resist himself is a woman, is this going to catch himself as a breeding pig?

Thinking of this, Zhu Hongsan writhed even more, but he didn't expect to accidentally touch the chest of this dominatrix, not to mention, the chest is quite big.

As soon as this dominatrix screamed, she hit Zhu Hongsan on the back of the head with the handle of the knife, and Zhu Hongsan fainted again.

When Zhu Hongsan woke up again, he found himself lying in a firewood room, and at the same time found that he was tied like a zongzi and couldn't move at all.

Zhu Hongsan looked out the window and it was already noon, Zhu Hongyi and they should find that they were lost, and they should start looking for themselves.

Zhu Hongsan felt that his mouth was dry, after all, he hadn't eaten water and rice since last night, and his throat was very dry.

Zhu Hongsan shouted: "Is there anyone? Anyone? The master wants to drink water. ”

After shouting several times, no one came, and it seems that no one cares. Zhu Hong thought in his heart: "Old man Feng asked me to kill less, can I kill the hell less?" These bastards are waiting, and when the master goes out and leveled your cottage, the chickens, ducks, geese and dogs will all be killed, and the rats will all fall to death one by one. ”
