Two days later, outside a small courtyard next to the official office in Changlin City. Hundreds of black-clad soldiers in heavy armor couldn't help but surround this small courtyard.

However, although it was surrounded, these people were all facing away from the small courtyard without exception. Clearly, they're guarding here.

"Hehe, I think you are Mr. Nie Bingnie." In the small courtyard, a young man looked at Nie Bing, who was imprisoned here, smiled, and couldn't help but sit on the stone bench placed in the courtyard.

"Hello, Mr. Nie. When we met for the first time, let me introduce myself, a certain is the privy councillor of the Red Turban Army Jiangbei Province and the marshal of the Black-clothed Army - Zhang Shihua. The young man smiled with a gentle expression.

Hearing the young man say this, Nie Bing couldn't help frowning in surprise. Then, he couldn't help but make a gesture at Zhang Shihua, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the general is the famous Zhang Shihua." And I, Nie Bing, were defeated in the hands of a yellow-mouthed son like you. It's really ......," he said, shaking his head playfully.

Seeing Nie Bing's appearance like this, Li Wu, who was guarding behind Zhang Shihua, couldn't help but have a cold glint in his eyes, and pulled out the saber at his waist, wanting to kill this person who insulted his lord.

But at this moment, Zhang Shihua, who was sitting on the stone bench, raised his left hand and couldn't help but stop Li Wu.

"Sir really has a hard bone, but sir doesn't have to provoke me so much that he wants to die. You are a smart man, sir, so I think you should know what I'm here for. So I just don't know, what do you think, sir, are you willing to work for me? ”

At this time, Zhang Shihua was still smiling, as if Nie Bing's words were insulting, and there was no half of his emotional turmoil.

And when Nie Bing saw this, the ridicule in his eyes couldn't help but endure, "I didn't expect that the general was so young and had such a city, which really embarrassed Nie." But I think the general will be disappointed today. Although Nie is afraid of death, he is more afraid of being a thief than death. ”

"Presumptuous! You dog official, my lord respects you so much, but you dare to provoke three times and twice. Do you really think that a certain steel knife can't cut off your head! Hearing that Nie Bing insulted Zhang Shihua as a thief again, the anger that Li Wu had just suppressed couldn't help but ignite again, and he scolded with his eyes open.

However, in response to Li Wu's scolding, Nie Bing just stood proudly, obviously not taking Li Wu's threat to heart at all.

When Li Wu saw this, the anger in his heart naturally became higher and higher, but seeing Zhang Shihua sitting in front of him expressionless and not making the slightest statement, Li Wu had to suppress the anger in his heart. Snorted coldly and turned his head away from this person.

"Hahaha, ridiculous, ridiculous!" Saying that, after Li Wu turned his head, and then looked at Nie Bing's arrogant appearance, Zhang Shihua not only got angry, but laughed out loud.

"Why is the general laughing, is it possible that he thinks that Nie is just cheating with the general?" Seeing where Zhang Shihua was laughing, Nie Bing, who thought that Zhang Shihua didn't believe that he had the heart to die generously, laughed to mock him, and his face couldn't help but become gloomy.

"I'm laughing at myself. I put down many important things in my hands today and came here on purpose, thinking that I could meet a gentleman who can understand righteousness. But I didn't think that the gentleman who knew the righteousness didn't see it, but saw a rotten Confucian who sold his reputation and reputation. In frustration, laugh and laugh at yourself. ”

"Humph! Zhang Shihua, don't insult me. Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated! Hearing that Zhang Shihua actually compared him to a corrupt Confucian who sold his reputation, Nie Bingzi, who thought highly of himself, couldn't help but be furious.

However, seeing that Nie Bing was angry, Zhang Shihua not only did not retreat, but also looked directly at him and scolded angrily: "Insult you, this handsome man has no time to spare." As a scholar and a disciple of a saint, you don't know what to distinguish between Huayi. ”

"At the time of the revolution, he only knew how to cling to the incompleteness and help the abuse. What you have done this time has made you a corrupt man? ”

"Ridiculous, ridiculous! Zhang Shihua, you want to provoke me with words. Thou hast raised an army to make a rebellion, cholera is all over the world, and thou art three outlines and five constants do not know, so what qualifications do you have to teach me. ”

"Three outlines and five constants, hahahaha. It seems that calling you a corrupt confucian, who sells your reputation is a light statement. Thou art a disciple of a saint, do thou not know the truth that the king regards his ministers as mustard, and his ministers as enemies? Today, cruelty is better than humility, and prostitution is better than Huhai Sui Yang. ”

"The people are born in the world, if they are in the cauldron, shouldn't this desolate and cruel king be overthrown!"

"There is no virtue in the army, and the Tang Wu Revolution. Today, when Timur is cruel and immoral, we will raise the banner of righteousness in accordance with the will of heaven and the will of the people, how dare you speak as a thief! Speaking of this, Zhang Shihua shouted angrily, and couldn't help but make Nie Bing take a step back.

"You, what a sophist!" After being robbed by Zhang Shihua like this, Nie Bing, who looked defeated miserably, scolded him like this, but he didn't know what to say.

Because, Zhang Shihua's words really made him a little unconfident.

As a local official, he naturally knew the living conditions of the people at the bottom under the land annexation and the greedy exploitation of the imperial court. Therefore, at this time, he couldn't help but find that he really couldn't find any excuse to refute Zhang Shihua's rebellious and reasonable words.

So at this time, he Nie Bing could only be silent.

And at this time, talking about Zhang Shihua, when he heard Nie Bing compare him to a sophistry, he looked at Nie Bing's eyes that gradually became dodgy and seemed a little lacking in confidence, but he snorted coldly with disdain, "Mr. Nie, I don't want you to argue about anything." Since you have insistence in your heart, then the argument between you and me is really meaningless. ”

"Whether my uprising is right or wrong, the people of later generations will have their own opinions. And you, do it yourself. After saying this, Zhang Shihua couldn't help but take people to throw off his sleeves and leave.

And looking at the back of Zhang Shihua leaving, Nie Bing couldn't help but sigh softly: "A good person in later generations has his own justice." This person is really a hero! ”

"Lord, I looked at Nie Bing and didn't know how to lift, do you want to ......?"

"Forget it, there is already a hard-boned Wang Le, and he is not inferior to Nie Bing. Ah Wu, like Wang Le, took good care of this Nie Bing's family. Hehe, I really like such hard bones, and I want to see if I can convince them and let them be used by me. Saying this, Zhang Shihua's eyes couldn't help flashing a gleam.

……

A moment later, Zhang Shihua was in the government office where he was handling official business.

"Lord, great, you can be regarded as coming, you see this is an urgent message from Zhongxing Road." As soon as they returned to the mansion with Li Wu, Zhao Ziyu, as a military advisor, couldn't help but come to Zhang Shihua's eyes with a secret report.

"This is from Zhongxing Road?" After receiving this secret report, Zhang Shihua couldn't help but subconsciously ask again.

Hearing Zhang Shihua ask like this, Zhao Ziyu nodded, "But isn't it, this secret report was sent from Zhongxing Road just now." ”

"Oh!" Hearing Zhao Ziyu's reconfirmation, Zhang Shihua frowned, and couldn't help tearing open the sealed letter.

"Hehe, it seems that I think it's not bad, and there really is a guy who wants to make a profit!" As he spoke, Zhang Shihua couldn't help but hand the secret letter to Zhao Ziyu.

And the curious Zhao Ziyu looked at the secret letter, but he couldn't help but be surprised: "What, that guy Yu Junzheng is actually attacking Jiangling City." Lord, this is ......"

"Hehe, it's not a big deal. To be honest, at the beginning, I was always worried about how to treat Yu Junzheng, an ally, but now that people have already handed us the knife and made a decision for us, it has saved me a lot of effort. ”

Zhang Shihua said with a smile, but the killing intent in his eyes became more and more intense.

And Zhao Ziyu, who saw Zhang Shihua's appearance and understood what Zhang Shihua was going to do, was slightly silent for a moment, and then couldn't help but say: "Lord, since this is the case, then we might as well wait until Yu Junzheng and him conquer Jiangling City." After all, with Yu Junzheng, the head snake of the land, I think he should be able to get more money and food than we can from those big households. When the time comes, let's attack him again, and he can be regarded as famous, right? ”

"Hahahaha, good, good. What a famous teacher, Ziyu, or do you know what I think! Saying that, Zhang Shihua looked at Zhao Ziyu, and the two couldn't help but look at each other again and laugh.

……

Time and pushed to a day ago, in the public security city on Zhongxing Road in the south, Yu Junzheng, who was expelled from Jiangling City by the officers and soldiers of the Yuan and Mongolian courts, and could only take the remnants of the troops to retreat in the public security city, could not help but have the idea of attacking Jiangling Mansion again at this time, in order to make a profit for the fisherman.

"Brothers, we are all friends who have passed our lives, and it can be said that we are closer than brothers. So in this world, I Yu Junzheng can trust you the most. Now, I have just received news that it is said that Zhang Shihua in the north is leading nearly 50,000 black-clothed soldiers and horses south. ”

In order to resist him, he had to bite and take away more than half of the defenders of Gangneung City. You say, what if I were to attack Gangneung City from both sides with that Zhang Shihua at this time? ”

Yu Junzheng, who is middle-aged and not very tall, but has a long beard like Guan Yu, looked at the generals under the hall and couldn't help asking.

"Big brother, I think it's okay, the total strength of the defenders of Gangneung City now is less than 20,000. With this amount of troops, as long as we mobilize the people in the public security city and gather an army of 50,000 or 60,000 to come out, it should not be a problem to attack Jiangling City, which is just a lonely city. Yu Junzheng's brother Yu Juntai was still the first to stand up and agree with his eldest brother's attention.

However, Yu Juntai's approval alone was not enough for a while to make others agree.

Therefore, after Yu Jun glanced at another confidant general in the hall without a trace, the general couldn't help but echo at the first time: "Yes, the second general, he is right." Damn, the black-clothed thief was less than 50,000 horses, and he scared the tartar to the point that he couldn't give up. ”

"Let's get him together with 50,000 horses now, are we still afraid that we won't be able to defeat Jiangling City, which is defended by 10,000 people. Damn, anyway, my Cai Laosan agrees with our general's attention. His grandmother's, compared with the rich Jiangling City, labor and management are about to fade out of the public security place. ”

"Don't say anything else, I, Cai Laosan, am willing to attack Jiangling City with the general, and go to Jiangling City together, drinking, eating meat, and playing with women."

"What the third child said is reasonable. Damn, what are we rebelling for, not so that we don't have to live a hard life of digging in the soil. Damn, I'm willing to attack Gangneung City anyway. In these years, it is to starve the bold to death! ”

Eventually, the proposal to attack Gangneung Fortress was echoed by the other generals.

In order to be able to drink, eat meat, and play with women, he wants to live like an adult, and Peng Jiang'er, who was born as a bandit, couldn't help but be the first to stand up and echo.

I have to say that Peng Jiang'er, who is so brave and ruthless, is really quite prestigious under Yu Junzheng's account. Seeing that he stood up and said this, the next three or five people suddenly stood up and agreed.

At this time, there was only one person in the room, but there were seven or eight people who agreed.

Therefore, the remaining three or four people, after looking at each other, could only echo their words.

After all, in Yu Junzheng's army, only those with big fists have the right to speak, although Yu Junzheng is nominally their leader. But in fact, it's just an alliance leader class.

Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for him to have any outspoken people in his army. For them, the minority obeys the majority, and that is the last word.

Now, since most of the people want to go to Gangneung City to make a fortune, even if the rest of the people are worried in their hearts, they don't dare to say it in this situation.

After all, cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents, and when they become rich, they die in vain.

So in this way, after a simple discussion on the surface, Yu Junzheng and the others couldn't help but decide to attack Jiangling City again with the thief tactics of coercing the people.

Anyway, at the beginning, that's how they built Gangneung City.

I haven't read a book, except for Yu Junzheng, the rest of the people in the army are all illiterate guys, so naturally they don't bother to think of other ways.

As for the huge side effects of the thief tactics that engulf the people in the long run, don't say they don't know, even if they do. It is estimated that these guys who are full today and don't care if they are hungry tomorrow or not, will not care at all.

In fact, this is also the true face of the vast majority of peasant rebel armies in this era. And this is also the fundamental reason why, for two thousand years, every dynasty has had peasant rebels, but every time in the later period, these peasant rebels will be quickly defeated.

Because these people are not only short-sighted, but also only know how to destroy, not to build.
