Chapter 341: Recruiting Warriors
Zhang Shuye was suspicious: "Since the Mongolian tribe is so powerful, even if it can't destroy the Liao State, it should be able to destroy the Western Xia, right?" As long as you destroy a country, you can get an iron horse to sweep the world, how can you ......"
Chao Yong said with a smile: "The Mongolian tribes are brave and good at fighting, but they are also unruly, they are fighting each other most of the time, and several big tribes are unable to send troops to attack Western Xia and Liao for a long time, because the tribes behind them are staring at them like hungry wolves, once they go on the expedition, it is likely that other tribes will go to rob their women and children, and go to their own tribes." According to the rules of the steppe, the victorious tribe will leave the children and women who are not more than the chariot wheel and merge it into their own tribe, and most of the people who exceed the chariot will be killed, except for a few who can become slaves. ”
Hearing that there was such a murderous nation, a civil official couldn't help but say: "There is no one with a surname." ”
Chao Yong looked at the people who were stunned, and continued: "The Mongol tribes have not swept the world, just because there is not a single person among them who can unify the tribes, think about it, once they are unified, hundreds of thousands of people who have grown up in the fight will be able to resist the army." ”
Chao Gai frowned and said, "After the Jin State destroyed the Liao State, can't it be able to subdue them?" ”
Chao Yong shook his head and said, "No, and the wealthy Central Plains is more attractive to the Jin Congress." ”
Everyone was terrified when they heard this, but Wu Song smiled and said, "In this way, don't we have an endless battle?" ”
Chao Yong smiled: "I'm afraid so. ”
Chao Gai saw the two talking and laughing, and he was not worried, although there are many murderous ethnic groups in the north, but there are also many heroic people in Daliang, just like the prince said, everyone fights to the death, and 10,000 Han people should be invincible in the world.
After dealing with military affairs, Chao Gai dealt with political affairs, which is nothing more than where there are still thieves and robbers, which laws need to be changed, and where there are displaced people.
Chao Yong was not very interested in these trivial matters, but he was just standing there thinking about sending troops, and suddenly he had an idea, and said: "The minister suggested that Ming Yudi Bao focus on publicizing the matter of my Liang's resistance to Liao, and recruit brave soldiers in the state capitals of the country. At the same time, he called on all the Han people in the world to collect their troops, guard the borders, and after the Liao State was defeated, our Han people will chase the world again. ”
When Chao Gai heard this, he shook his head and said, "Wang Qing and Tian Hu are busy snatching the state capital, I'm afraid they won't agree to us." ”
Chao Yong said with a smile: "According to the surnames of the two people, most of them will not agree, so General Lin's soldiers and horses will go to Xijing." However, it is a great righteousness to resist foreign aggression, and if they continue to attack our Liang Xijing, then they will lose their righteousness. The heroes of the world will not vote for them again, and I am afraid that there will be some heroes under their command who are dissatisfied, and maybe someone will come to vote for me. ”
Chao Gai nodded and said: "In this way, it's not bad, but if there is a real truce, won't our soldiers and horses on the south and east roads also have to stop." ”
Chao Yong said solemnly: "We have to stand on the side of righteousness, and naturally we can't be truthful, lest Wang Qing and Tian Hu say that I am behind my back and take the opportunity to grab the territory." We must make an all-out anti-Liao trend and gather troops and horses. However, the soldiers and horses of the two routes did not really need to rush to Hebei, but turned around and swept away the rogues and routs of the state capital that had been defeated, so as not to plunder the people. I believe that the Liao State will not fight with us for a long time, and when the Liao soldiers are repulsed, there should be no such rogues in my Daliang. At that time, you can use the righteousness to sweep away Wang Qing and Tian Hu. Erchen can directly lead his troops from Hebei into Hedong and attack the rear of Tianhu. ”
Chao Gai is actually still a little worried about Chao Yong's resistance to Liao, and now after collecting troops and horses, in case the situation in Hebei is not good, he will send them to support Hebei.
Thinking of this, Chao Gai nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do as the prince says." The Hanlin Academy cooperated with the Jinjuyuan to draft the text. ”
The Hanlin Academy and the Dean of the Concert hurriedly came out to receive the order.
Chao Yong turned to the two of them: "The article to be written is magnificent, not only to denounce the Song Dynasty for humiliation and peace, but also to break the backbone of my Han people, so that my Han people can't stand up their chests and look proud of the world." I also want to write about my Liang's determination to fight to the death for the whole country and resist foreign aggression, and call on heroes from all over the country to join the army to defend the country and reshape the backbone of the Han people. ”
"The lower official has been taught."
Chao Yong looked at the two of them: "A good article tops thousands of troops, and you have to continue to post articles to stimulate my Han blood surname." If the recruitment of the dare warrior is successful, you will be counted as a second-class military merit. The newspaper could be printed to expand its influence. ”
The two of them were also overjoyed when they heard Chao Yong say this, Da Liang's military merits are not so easy to obtain, and each level of military merit will have a corresponding reward. Moreover, the prince is close to the martial arts, and if he can obtain military merits, he will not have to worry about losing his surname if he says the wrong word in the future, and he will be stinking for 10,000 years.
The soldiers and civilians of Daliang all knew that the prince was very easy-going with the soldiers under his command, and he spoke unscrupulously, but he was not so polite to the literati, and now the most feared thing by the literati of Daliang was Chao Yong. It's not that I'm afraid of being killed by the prince, but I'm afraid of being engraved for 10,000 years.
After Li Gang and Cai Jing and others were engraved together, they are now scolded by the people every day.
Although the hundred officials knew why Li Gang was engraved on the stele, no one dared to say it, even Li Gang's acquaintances did not dare to talk much, they were afraid that the prince would be regarded as Li Gang's fellow party and added to the stele. At the beginning, the prince ordered the stonemasons to leave three empty seats on the stone tablet, saying that they would be reserved for the seven thieves.
These three vacant seats became the most feared place for the literati.
And those who don't know, although there are people who have heard of Li Gang's deeds, but when they see him engraved together with Cai Jing, Zhu Mian, Wang Hao and others, they also suspect Li Ganglai.
No one is allowed to leave a record of Li Gang's deeds, and violators are beheaded all over the house. It won't be long before the truth will be buried in the long river of history, and Li Gang can only leave a stench for 10,000 years.
Before the spittle on Li Gang's stele dried, another Huang Qianshan immediately came out, and it is conceivable that when Huang Qianshan was engraved on the stele for treason, the people who spat on him would only be more. There is no room for literati not to be afraid of Chao Yong.
"Don't worry, the prince, we will do our best to do this."
Chao Yong retreated to his position, and Chao Gai let something play again.
After a while, the court returned to normal, some people played, and some people exchanged ears in the back.
Chao Yong also felt the contrast between the front and back this time, so he came out again.
Sure enough, as soon as Chao Yong went to battle, the court was quiet again.
"Son, please list another item on the stone tablet, so that you will not be convicted for your words."
"Huh?"
An official questioned in astonishment.
The civil officials also looked at Chao Yong suspiciously, the prince was a tyrant in their eyes, and the prince was above the court, they had to think carefully when they spoke, for fear that a wrong sentence would be engraved on the stone tablet. Unexpectedly, the prince now said that he would not be convicted for his words, so doesn't that mean that as long as he does not approve of humiliation and peace, he can say anything.
Chao Gai was open-minded and said with a smile: "This one is good, good, quasi-playing." ”
The hundred officials heard Chao Gai's agreement, and immediately played in unison: "The emperor is wise, and the prince is wise." ”
This time, the hundred officials praised it convincingly, after all, there is no longer any need to be afraid of losing their surname if they say the wrong word.
