Chapter 81: The Wrong Way (I)
Chapter 81: The Divergent Way (I)
"I can't help it, I can't help it..." Zhang Shicheng was shocked, stood up, and grabbed Huang Jingfu's arm. Lao Li, he is afraid that we will be arrogant, no, not that thinking, not enterprising, so he spoke, stimulated, stimulated. Lao Huang, why is Huang Aiqing so serious? β
He really thought about Huang Jingfu, afraid that once the latter was in Jiading City, he would not come back alive. Unexpectedly, Huang Jingfu persuaded more and more vigorously, took two steps back, got rid of his pull, and then bowed down again, "Minister, I am willing to make a military order... If you can't get Jiading for the lord, I am willing to hold my head and thank you..."
"This? Well, Lao Li, you tsk..."Zhang Shicheng was forced, and for a while, his mind was full of hot sweat. Then how can Zhu Liangzu be a person who can be persuaded lightly? Back then, Zhu Chongjiu coerced the threat of a great victory to force him and Liao Daheng to join him, and he found excuses to delay again and again. In the end, he resolutely crossed the Yangtze River and fled back to Meng Yuan. Now that Zhang Jiajun has just fought a draw with him, how can he surrender instead?
was at a loss, but he heard Li Bosheng spit on the ground angrily, and said loudly: "The surname is Huang, don't go and die by yourself." If you can't save face, Li will make amends to you..."
After that, he took a few steps back, and gave Huang Jingfu a long bow very stiffly.
"That's right, that's right. Lao Li is a real person and can't speak, Huang Qing, don't worry about him..."Zhang Shicheng wiped the sweat from his forehead as if he had been amnestied, and continued to add. "Come on, let's not talk about Jiading today. Let's find a place to have a few drinks to soothe our minds..."
"The lord is slow..."Huang Jingfu refused to appreciate it at all, and made another gesture, and then continued to ask, "Huang originally planned to go to Jiading in person, but he was not completely forced by words..."
Immediately, he turned his head again, arched his hand to Li Bosheng very arrogantly, and continued to add: "General Li's kindness, Huang Mou's heart understands. But the gentleman is true to his word, this Jiading, Huang has to go..."
This is a bit too dead, although Zhang Shicheng respects him, he is also a little angry in his heart. However, Huang Jingfu's next words instantly extinguished the flames, and in their place, he was sincerely admired.
"Zhu Liangzu's refusal to surrender is his own business. Whether or not Jiading can be held is a matter for the gentry of Jiading. Huang Jingfu straightened his clothes very calmly and added calmly, "He, a volunteer soldier, has thousands of households, and the soldiers, horses, grains and grass come from the locality, not the imperial court." If the local gentry are willing to surrender to the lord, even if he is not willing to surrender, he has no choice but to hang the seal and go there. On the contrary, the local gentry are unwilling to surrender, even if he wants to dedicate Jiading City to the lord, I am afraid that he has the life to plan, but he has not the order to implement it..."
"Hiss........." Not only Zhang Shicheng was so impressed that he threw himself to the ground, but the other senior generals of the Changzhou Army also gasped.
Different from the situation of the salt ladies who have no worries, the so-called "volunteers" are similar to the current "gourd" soldiers and regimental training, and they are all local gentry who formed their own township warriors in order to suppress the Red Turban Rebellion. Not only were most of their blades and equipment, grain and grass burdens apportioned by the gentry, but even the sergeants and soldiers of the army were all tenants, long-term workers and even private slaves of the large local gentry, and they had a fundamentally inseparable dependence on the master's family.
And the generals at all levels in the volunteer army are also completely served by the sons and nephews of the gentry and big families, and the relationship between them is complicated. If they are determined to disobey, they can paralyze an entire "volunteer army" to the ground in an instant. Unless the Lord will have the absolute courage and capital to kill the killer and clean all the camp heads. Otherwise, there is simply no second way to go other than to compromise with them ...
And what Huang Jingfu is about to do is to win over the gentry inside and outside Jiading City in the name of Zhang Shicheng. With his good reputation in the past, with the prestige of Gao Qi, Song Lian, Yang Ji, Zhang Yu, Xu Ben and others among the scholars, as well as the huge clans behind their respective families, as long as the conditions given by Zhang Shicheng are suitable, the chance of success on this trip is definitely more than sixty percent. And even if the two sides can't get along, the literati and the literati have their own set of rules for getting along. Out of consideration for leaving a way out for themselves, the local gentry will also try their best to ensure that Huang Jingfu leaves safely...
"Good... Great kindness, lonely and respectful, like a fish in water..."Before the generals recovered from the shock, Zhang Shicheng had already laughed and stroked his palms again. If it weren't for the fact that his skin was slightly healthier because of the wind and sun, it would be no different from the appearance of Emperor Zhaowu of the Han Dynasty on the stage.
"Please follow the example of the Han Dynasty and Gaozu back then, make a covenant with the people of Jiangnan, restore the Song system, promote education, and have no offense with the people..."
"Please follow the example of the Han Dynasty and Gaozu back then, make a covenant with the people of Jiangnan, restore the Song system, promote education, and make no mistakes with the people..."
"Hahahaha" Zhang Shicheng raised his head and laughed loudly. "Accurate, solitary quasi-playing. Huang Qing, you and everyone drafted a document for Gu and passed it on to the fathers and elders in all parts of Jiangnan. How to write it, you well-educated people will discuss it. As long as we can drive out the Mongols, what is there to discuss between ourselves and ourselves? In this world, should it be governed with people who have the ability? Otherwise, even if I am tired to death, I am afraid I will not be able to keep busy..."
"Lord Shengming..."Huang Jingfu bowed down again and solemnly saluted Zhang Shicheng.
"Lord Shengming..."Cai Yanwen, Yang Ji, Zhang Yu, Xu Ben and others followed.
Song Lian, Gao Qi and other stable people, although they felt that Zhang Shicheng's promise was a little rash. But if they can re-glue together the concept of "kings and scholars ruling the world together" that Meng Yuan shattered by force, and can win an irreplaceable position for Confucianism in the new dynasty, they will also be happy to see it come to fruition.
Only Li Bosheng, Lu Zhen and some generals from the leaders of the Salt Gang faintly felt a little lost in their hearts. But in front of the readers, they originally had some inferiority. Now the latter also claims that they can take them without blood, and they have sacrificed thousands of brothers and failed to succeed in Jiading, which makes them unable to muster the courage to continue to show up. I can only step aside in embarrassment and listen to how the voices around me are boiling...
"Report to the ........." a very timely small school, completely solving the embarrassment of Li Bosheng and others.
The bustle in the stands stopped abruptly, and Huang Jingfu turned his head and asked very dissatisfied, "What's the matter with you, why are you so shouting?" Don't you have the word military law in your heart? β
"This, this" Xiao Xiaoxiao's face was flushed when he was questioned, and he turned his gaze to Zhang Shicheng and added as if begging for mercy, "Yes, it's Wang Kerou, General Wang Kerou is asking to see you outside the gate." He commanded, commanded the little ones to come and make an announcement to the Lord first. The small, the little one didn't know that Lord Huang was discussing something important with the lord. Minor convictions, please forgive me..."
"You get up..."Zhang Shicheng was in a good mood at the moment, waving his hand, and commanded with a pleasant face. When he went back to tell the general sΓΉ king, he said that he was alone, and that the governor of Pontus would go out to pick him up in person immediately..."
With that, he stood up with both hands on the table and strode off the stands.
Although Huang Jingfu and the others were discouraged by the small school that passed the word, they also knew that they could not be neglected. looked at each other, and together with Li Bosheng and other generals, they followed closely behind Zhang Shicheng.
However, after only walking more than twenty steps, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Cai Yanwen's heart, sped up, approached Zhang Shicheng's right ear, and reminded in a very low voice, "Does the lord know, why is Wang Kerou here today?" β
"What's so hard to guess then. He couldn't capture Dusong Pass, and the lonely side was also blocked by Jiading City. So he must have come over to discuss, join forces with Gu again, and concentrate on starting from one place..."Zhang Shicheng still has some experience in terms of military strategy. After a little pondering, the answer was given.
"Is the lord willing to join forces with him?" Cai Yanwen remained silent and continued to induce in a low voice.
"Of course, is there power in numbers? The previous division of troops to go all the way was originally to guard against being blocked by the Yuan army, and there was no way..."Zhang Shicheng didn't think about it, and responded with a smile.
Soon, however, his face changed. was stunned and stopped, "You mean, since we have hope of taking Jiading, we don't need to partner with him?" What do you mean? Isn't this for Pontus to be revived? β
"Don't dare..."Cai Yanwen smiled and shook his head slightly. There was no cringe in his eyes. "The minister also wants to know, if the army is united, who will be the main one? Who is servant? The promise of the lord, will General Wang Kerou fulfill it? β
"Of course, it's mainly lonely, this is what Mr. Zhu had already decided before crossing the river..."Zhang Shicheng frowned and said unceremoniously. Immediately, he crossed his hands and repeatedly flexed and stretched in front of his chest, "Hey, that's what you said." This kid admired Zhu very much, and told him to go east and never go south. If Lone's promise is not in line with Huaiyang's, he really won't listen..."
"Hehe" Cai Yanwen shook his head with a smile and stopped talking.
Huang Jingfu and others also stopped one after another, surrounding Zhang Shicheng, their eyes full of anticipation. There are some choices that are definitely to be made. If you do, you can't go back. This is true for an ordinary person, and for a city and a country, I am afraid it is also the same.
The atmosphere around me became tense in an instant. The sound of firecrackers on the school field was also as fierce as popping beans. Wisps of gunpowder smoke drifted by, and Zhang Shicheng was stimulated to cough loudly. Then, he wiped his mouth vigorously, gritted his teeth and said, "You don't have to look at Gu like this... Since Lone made a promise today, he will not change his words lightly. After meeting for a while, Lone will try his best to let Wang Kerou go with Lone. Follow Lonely, go to Jiaxing and Hangzhou together..."
"I'm afraid that in a hurry, General Wang may be difficult to make a decision like the lord..."Cai Yanwen smiled again, and a bit of viciousness slowly surged in his eyes, "Besides, his vision is also very shallow." In case of a disagreement with the lord, it will be difficult for the two armies to cooperate again..."
"Yes, under General Wang Kerou, there are more than 20,000 soldiers and horses. If we leave on our own, our army will have an arm cut off..."Huang Jingfu looked at Cai Yanwen and added with a smile.
"Lone understands, Lone has his own opinions..."Zhang Shicheng's fingers curled in front of his chest, constantly making a "cluck" and "cluck" joint dislocation sound. It hurts a little, but what brings him more is a kind of decisive pleasure. "Shide, Shixin, you two, go to the Chinese military tent to prepare. Wait a minute, let's entertain General Wang over there..."
