(Thanks to sdbridge, Heavy Padres, and Mauser 98K for voting for their valuable monthly tickets, thank you.) )
Gao Yingxiang saw the legendary Su Tiancheng for the first time, looking at the young Su Tiancheng, who was a little excessive, Gao Yingxiang didn't know what was wrong with Lu Dao, and suddenly lost all his confidence.
Su Tiancheng was also paying attention to Gao Yingxiang, the leader of the top rogues, the elder of Li Zicheng, who began to rebel in the first year of Chongzhen, which made the court extremely headache.
At this moment, Gao Yingxiang no longer has the breath of grandeur, perhaps because he suffered a huge defeat, 100,000 sergeants, but in one night, the whole army was annihilated, including the surrendered sergeants, facing such a huge blow, no matter who it was, it was impossible to show an attitude of indifference.
Su Tiancheng also temporarily decided to see Gao Yingxiang, the good news has been written, and it was sent to the capital urgently, the next situation is predictable, Gao Yingxiang will definitely be escorted to the capital, and his head will be cut off by Zhu Youzhen, as for the officers and sergeants under Gao Yingxiang, there is not much left, and it is not worth mentioning.
After being silent for a while, Su Tiancheng finally spoke.
"Gao Yingxiang, I have admired the name for a long time, we finally met."
Gao Yingxiang looked at Su Tiancheng, his eyes looked a little wooden, he just nodded, he didn't speak, the general of the defeated army, there is nothing to say, the bravery of the Jiangning battalion, he has personally experienced it, but he can't imagine how this young man in front of him can train such a brave soldier.
"Hehe, it seems that you still don't know why you will fail for Lu."
Su Tiancheng suddenly said this, which surprised Gao Yingxiang very much. In an instant, the anger came up, Gao Yingxiang raised his head violently, glared at Su Tiancheng viciously, and his eyes were full of unwillingness and disdain.
"Becoming the king and defeating the king, since it is in the hands of Jiang Ningying. I don't have anything to say, if you want to kill or kill you, don't talk so much......"
There are still some words, Gao Yingxiang really can't say it, what will be revenge later, what must overthrow the Ming Dynasty, in front of Su Tiancheng, he feels that he can't believe these words. Perhaps Zijin Liang was telling the truth, the rebel army would eventually be destroyed at the hands of Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ningying.
"Gao Yingxiang, you still don't realize that you will fail for anything, to put it mildly, even if you occupy the Ming Dynasty, even if you temporarily grasp the power, but you will not succeed. Your own flaws show that you cannot achieve ultimate victory. ”
"Hmph. You're victorious, of course, and you can say whatever you want. ”
"Hehe, I, Su Tiancheng, have always been a reasonable person, if I don't know each other, how can I talk nonsense, I said that you will fail in the end. It certainly makes sense. ”
"Then tell me, I want to see what you can say."
"Alright, then sit down, the banquet is ready. We drank together. ”
Gao Yingxiang moved his muscles and bones, it was tied too tightly just now, and the blood circulation on his body was not smooth, which was very uncomfortable.
After swaggering down, Gao Yingxiang's face was resolute, he had failed, he was captured, and there was not much time left in the world realm, it didn't matter.
Su Tiancheng nodded slightly, Gao Yingxiang's attitude is not a generation of heroes.
Personally poured a glass of wine for Gao Yingxiang, and Su Tiancheng raised his glass.
"Come, I'll toast you with a glass of wine, for so many years, it is not easy for you to go against the imperial court and fight in the north and south."
"Thank you, thank you, you are an official, I am a thief, you toast me, I drank it, I dare not toast you."
In the face of Gao Yingxiang's ridicule, Su Tiancheng didn't care at all, he had already won the victory, and in front of Gao Yingxiang, there was no need to put on a show.
After drinking this glass of wine in one gulp, Su Tiancheng spoke slowly.
"Gao Yingxiang, now I want to talk in detail, why can't you achieve ultimate success."
Gao Yingxiang really wanted to hear what Su Tiancheng could say.
"Yanque An knows the ambition of the bird, this sentence must be known to you Lu Dao, you may also worship that kind of understanding, think back then, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were so majestic, they almost overthrew the rule of the Qin Dynasty, but in the end, they still failed, thousands of years of history shows that the peasant uprising did not succeed, although it can be noisy for a while, but the final outcome is the same."
Gao Yingxiang didn't speak, he had never thought about these things, and he couldn't imagine that Su Tiancheng would actually study this aspect.
"Chen Sheng Wu Guang's uprising, because of the rule of the tyrannical Qin, if they don't rebel, they can't live, helplessly raised the banner of rebellion, invincible, achieved a lot of victories, and even established a regime, think of your reason for rebellion is almost the same, can't live, can't eat, rather than starve to death, it is better to rebel, there is always a way out, always be able to live, so, for the reason for your rebellion, I understand, empathy, if I get to that point, I can't eat enough, I can't support my family anymore, and I can't solve this problem through my own efforts, and I may also rebel. ”
Gao Yingxiang's eyes widened, looking at Su Tiancheng, he couldn't believe it, he thought he had heard it wrong, Su Tiancheng was an official of the imperial court, the governor of Shaanxi Province, why would he say such words.
"The court has repeatedly exterminated you, and in the end they have fallen short, in fact, the reason for this, you also know some of the ways, the emperor and the adults in the court, always feel ashamed in their hearts, you are the people of the Ming Dynasty, because you can't eat, because you can't feed your family, you have no choice but to rebel, your starting point is worthy of sympathy, so the court has always taken to appease, as long as you are willing to submit to the court, you can always get preferential treatment."
"It is precisely because of this attitude that you are not satisfied, and your appetite is getting bigger and bigger, I will say a very simple word, you have rebelled for so many years, do you still want to eat well, it is impossible, if you accept the appeasement of the imperial court, how can you get an official and a half-job, you can support yourself and your family, and those sergeants who follow you desperately can also be properly settled, but unfortunately you will not do it."
"You have gained too many benefits through rebellion, and you have a lot of feelings, no one dislikes power, you have experienced the power of power, so your concept has undergone a fundamental change, you are not satisfied with a life of abundant food and clothing, you need to grasp power, if you just started to rebel, the purpose is to let the poor people have food, but now, this purpose has retreated, not your main goal, your main goal, I am afraid that you think of yourself, I thought I was in power. ”
"So, you don't accept the court's appeasement, the battle is in trouble, you fake submission, and rebel again in a blink of an eye, the conditions given to you by the court can't be met at all, you have to lay down the country by yourself, you have to be self-righteous, don't obey any orders, especially you, I'm afraid that everyone will obey your command."
"There is nothing strange about having such an idea, I said earlier, everyone likes power, but ideas are ideas, reality is reality, being a person needs to have a bottom line, what things can be done, what things can't be done, for your ending, I summarize it in four words, I don't measure it."
Gao Yingxiang looked at Su Tiancheng, lowered his head, and didn't speak, what Su Tiancheng said didn't have any profound truth, but what he said was very real, and it went deep into his heart.
"You know that you are fighting and killing, and occasionally promulgating some government decrees, such as not allowing harassment of the people, etc., but do you have a comprehensive policy, have you ever thought about it, when you grasp the political power, what are you going to do, governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, you can fight the world immediately, but you can't govern the world immediately, you don't fully understand these truths, and you haven't even studied them."
"What's more, some of you, once you have gained power, desperately pursue enjoyment, forget the original vows, what is for the common people to seize the world, in their eyes, the world is their own down, to enjoy, to make up for the past suffering, otherwise this life will be too cost-effective, to put it mildly, those who hold such ideas, among your people, occupy the vast majority."
"You don't have a specific program, it's just a general rabble, and in the end they come together, fight bravely, and after victory, each of them thinks of glory and wealth, and even at the expense of internal strife, they want to seize power."
As long as there is a wise leader, educate the people, tell the people, you must have ideals, you must really make contributions, you can't think of glory and wealth, in your heart, you must not forget the purpose of the rebellion, and slowly transform everyone's understanding, if such a situation occurs, I dare to say, you will not be easily defeated."
"The leaders among you, Wang Jiayin, Zijin Liang, including you, no one has done it, you rely on force to decide who is the leader, and you rely on force to speak, this view of the law of the jungle is deeply ingrained in your hearts, and this situation makes your power unstable."
"If it weren't for the famine over the years, the difficulties of the imperial court, and the harassment of Houjin, you would have been wiped out long ago."
"There are indeed a lot of things that have not been done well in the government in various places, so that you have to rebel, some officials, fish and meat people, regardless of the life or death of the people, are bent on their own interests, corrupting the government and government, and also greatly damaging the morale of the army, so that you can plunder for so many years."
"However, when you meet me and meet Jiangning Ying, I'm afraid you won't have such good luck."
"Have you said so much, in fact, what I want to say the most, now such an ending is your fate, accept your fate." (To be continued......)
