Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Choice (I)

The right prime minister is the head of the hundred officials of the Great Yuan, and the rapid rise of Sang Ge Lili and Wang Jianu's father and son is also Hama. Therefore, since even Hama himself is unwilling to care, other civil and military ministers, such as Zuo Xiang Dingzhu, Taiwei Yuekuochaer, and Hama's brother-in-law Ballu Timur and others, do not need to deliberately act against Tuhuan Timur. As a result, Sange's lost "desperate plan" was quickly put into practice. The Central Book Province, the Privy Council, and the relevant departments of the Great Yuan Dynasty acted quickly, and with unprecedented neatness, the holy decree of Tuhuan Timur was pasted throughout every city in the area controlled by the Mengyuan court.

The ideas of "Ming Jun" and "Neng Chen" are very perfect, but after the holy decree was promulgated to the world, the results received were not ideal. Tuhuan Timur and Sang Ge lost the two expectations, and Liu Futong, Zhu Chongba, Peng Monk, Zhao Pulang and others defected to the company, but it did not appear for a long time. On the contrary, some bandits and grass cobs who wandered around in Zhongshu, Shaanxi, Gansu, Yunnan and other places under the banner of the Red Turban Army all announced one after another "Fengzhao Qinwang". Among them, the largest group is only about 50,000 people, of which less than 10,000 are young and strong who can carry knives into battle, and the rest are all old, weak, sick and disabled.

Obviously, these people found that their territory was far away from the Zhu butcher, and no matter how they shouted, there was no danger, so they took the opportunity to come out and pick up ready-made bargains. And as long as they accepted the Zhao'an, the Mengyuan court and the local government had to pinch their noses and admit their legitimate right to rule the territory they controlled according to the edict written in black and white. And for a long time after that, they can no longer send troops to conquer and suppress, and let them slowly recover their strength and resurrect from the previous dying edge.

"It's just a horse bone! If they are willing to obey the edict, why should I demand too much? Tomorrow, from tomorrow, you will go on patrol on my behalf to return to the heroes. Verify the true number of soldiers and horses under his command, the situation of armor and weapons, and the specific talents of these people, and award officers as appropriate! If there are practical and usable troops, they will be sorted out as appropriate to form an army of their own. Supplies and food are all according to the old example of Chakhan Timur and Li Siqi! He knew in his heart that he had acted recklessly, but Timur was unwilling to do anything to make amends. Instead, he simply took the mistake and sent the Governor of the Privy Council, Governor Wei Sijian, to co-opt the bandits from all walks of life in the new country for future needs.

"Yes!" After the Governor of the Privy Council, Governor Wei Sijian and Hama and others fought together, but they did not get enough profits, and they were living a grievance in the past two years. At this moment, hearing that Timur gave him the opportunity to lead the troops directly, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. Immediately, he knelt down and shouted his orders.

"Sang Ge lost his life, you find a few bold and loyal Hanchen from the Imperial History Tai, and send them to envoy the Red Turban Ministry. Show my thirst for talent in person! Having succeeded in setting up another strong rival for Hama, Timur continued to make persistent efforts and continued to publicly show his support for Sango.

"Wechen is willing to go to Bianliang in person!" Sang Ge was not reconciled to the fact that the killer plan he had come up with with so hard effort turned into a big joke. Biting it, bend down in response.

"This" Tuhuan Timur was already a little disappointed in Sange's loss. At the moment when the other party bowed down, his eyes were round again, and he was impressed. "Aiqing, you, you are not Han. That Liu Futong wolf ambition, in case he"

You must know that Liu Futong and Han Lin'er, who are currently entrenched in Bianliang, are the second offensive force in addition to Zhu Tuhu. And Liu Futong is not like Zhu Tuhu who is a fake Taoist, and pays attention to the rules of the two countries not killing each other. If any of the words are said inappropriately and annoy him, I am afraid that Sang Ge will not have a chance to come back alive!

However, Sango lost his life and was arrogant. Without waiting for Tuhuan Timur to finish his refusal, he bowed down again, "Your Majesty has the grace of knowing and promoting Weichen, and the minister is worried and has nothing to repay." If this trip can be said to be Liu Futong's surrender, even if Weichen is crushed, what is the pity? Even if this trip can't be said to be a defection of Liu Thief, Weichen can also use his entourage to send back detailed information to Bianliang. If you can let the court know itself and know the other when you suppress thieves in the future, and the ministers will die if they die, they will also die as they deserve! ”

"This, this" A little tears welled up in Timur's round eyes. This is my Dayuan's young talent, who has the courage to take responsibility and spares himself for the country. In contrast, the likes of Totokh and Hama, which one is not about to die, greedy for life and afraid of death?!

Thinking of this, he resolutely patted the case, "Okay, you go, I will pray for you in the capital." If you can make it back, I will not hesitate to do so. If you sacrifice your life for righteousness this time, I will not bear your blood, and I will let your two younger brothers, as well as your two-year-old son, be rich and noble for life! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Wechen will go to select people, send envoys with festivals, and recruit heroes for His Majesty! Hearing what Timur said, he was excited, and Sango lost his glasses and knelt down and kowtowed. Then stand up, bow again, bow three times, and go out with your head held high, without hesitation.

Both the monarch and the minister were so tragic that some of the methods originally arranged by Hama to target Sango were all stupid and defeated, and they were declared stillborn before they were issued. And Tuhuan Timur was not ready to give the ministers too many opportunities to "elbow", so he hastily asked a few words about the war in the southeast and announced the dissolution of the court.

Prime Minister Hama failed to take revenge on his political opponents, and of course became more and more disheartened. After leaving the Daming Palace, he couldn't even lift the spirit of greeting his old friends Yue Kuocha'er, Dingzhu and others, jumped on his mount, raised his whip and left.

I planned to return home, quickly contact my younger brother Xuexue, and arrange the retreat of the entire family as soon as possible, so as not to be caught off guard. Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked through a street corner, he saw Guo Shu, the squire of the Ministry of Works, the ambassador of the Ordnance Bureau, and the director of the Hundred Workshops, riding a horse with a smile and sticking towards his guards from the side. "Prime Minister, stay here, stay for the time being. The lower officials have important things to do! ”

"Phew!" Hama pulled the reins hard and took the mount with him. Although he has a stomach full of nameless karmic fire in his heart, he will not vent it on innocent people. Especially the head of the "back party" like Guo Shu, who has no threat to himself, but can often enter and leave the palace.

"Prime Minister, Xia Guan is fortunate to be not dishonored, and he has uncovered the secret of the flint. If the Prime Minister is free, please move to the Ordnance Bureau. Guo Nu chased after a few more steps, raised his right palm with six fingers, and issued an invitation with an expectant face.

"It's a thunderbolt, the kind that can be fired without a twist of medicine and with a pull of the trigger?" Although he was on the verge of despair for the Great Yuan Dynasty, Hama was still refreshed.

In recent years, the reason why the armed forces of the imperial court have been thrown farther and farther away by the Huai thieves is that the biggest problem lies in firearms. Four-pound cannons, six-catty cannons, arquebuses, flintlock pistols, Zhu Thief is like the reincarnation of Lu Ban, constantly creating magic weapons. On the side of the imperial court, huge energy and financial resources have been invested, but they have never been able to catch up.

Now, the secret of the gun has been cracked by the six-fingered Guo Shu. How can you not be overjoyed? If you can really equip tens of thousands of flintlock pistols, why should you rely on others for yourself and the Xuexue brothers?!

"Exactly!" Seeing that he was weak by Ha Ma's hot gaze, the six-fingered Guo Shu tried to turn his head sideways and added in a very low voice, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also in the Ordnance Bureau at the moment. If the prime minister passes over now, he can just give him a few words! ”
