Chapter 673: Windfall
No normal person can tolerate a traitor, especially a group of clowns who eat inside and outside and kill their compatriots.
When Ma Dong escorted more than a hundred traitors and returned to Wanquan Right Guard, the soldiers in the city and a few ordinary people gathered over, and they pointed and pointed, and the one who walked in the front was Lu Mingzhen. He never thought that he owed Da Ming anything, he studied in his early years and failed repeatedly, what is the reason?
It's not that the court is dark, he has no power, no power and no money, he can't afford to hire a good teacher, he can't buy the examiner, he is in his thirties, and he is still a poor boy. Who doesn't want to live better, what's wrong with joining the White Lotus Sect?
The damn court is still chasing after it, and it can't be found to die by itself, so it is also appropriate to flee to the grassland and take refuge in me. He is right, the so-called king and defeat, Lao Tzu's biggest mistake is to lose, and he must have a hero's appearance if he loses, he strives to straighten his chest, summon up courage, and die with a look!
Lu Mingzhen kept admonishing himself, and when he entered the city, there were black and oppressive people on both sides, staring at them one by one, and he didn't know where a rotten egg flew from nowhere, and it hit him in the face. Most of the courage that had just been mustered up was lost in an instant, and the common people stretched out their claws and kept cursing, and without soldiers to stop them, the people would rush up without hesitation and tear him to pieces.
Rotten eggs, rotten leaves, shoe soles, clods, horse manure...... Everyone was crazy to vent the anger in their hearts.
Under the banner of official coercion and civil rebellion, it makes sense for you to surrender and answer? Are you really rebelling against the court?
Every time I answered into the Kou, the dog traitor acted as a lackey, and the result was not the common people, the right guard, every family, almost someone died in the hands of the Kou, and someone was plundered and became a slave. Exhausted to death on the grassland, he became a white skeleton that no one recognized.
I answer hateful, traitors are even more hateful, I answer damned, traitors should be chopped!
The monstrous anger of the common people made Lu Mingzhen and his ilk embarrassed.
When the team finally arrived at the front of the Shuaifu, Tang Yi calmly looked at these traitors, and said in disgust: "What are you keeping them for, except for a few who are extremely heinous, the others will be beheaded on the spot!" ”
"Yes!"
The soldiers also endured enough, cheered, and pulled people to the court, and the people were three layers inside and three layers outside, and just cutting off their heads was no longer enough for the people to be angry.
Everyone came up with various methods, some suggested that they should be burned with fire, and that they should light sky lanterns, and some advocated dousing water and freezing to death...... In short, I thought of all the ways I could think of.
Although it is very cruel, but in the nine-sided battlefield, thousands of years of killing and hatred, there is not enough blood, and it cannot wash away the anger. Tang Yi let the people vent and regain their lost courage and blood.
He personally invited Huang Fuyang to the mansion and found the last military doctor to examine his body.
"Dashuai, the injury of the emperor's strong man is not light, if you want to recover, it will take two or three months, to say the least."
"It doesn't matter, no matter how much it costs, you have to save him, you need manpower, you need medicinal materials, just tell Ben Shuai, no matter what, you are not allowed to let him die!"
"Understood!" The military doctor nodded, "If the strong man of the emperor dies, let me give him his life!" ”
Heroes have applause, traitors have knives.
The grievances are clear and unambiguous, this is the nine-sided style!
Tang Yi came out of the ward and immediately called Ma Dong over.
"Good job, I know that I have changed people back, a great achievement!"
Ma Dong scratched his head embarrassedly, "I don't know how I thought of it, don't praise me anymore, I'm embarrassed." The boy's face flushed.
Tang Yi smiled, "Just rush at your cleverness, and give you another task, and give these things to me for me." ”
Someone brought over a few wooden boxes, Ma Dong looked at it in a flash, obediently, it was full of good things!
Red gold armor, red gold scimitars, a table clock studded with precious stones, a coral tree more than three feet high, a fist-sized pearl of the night......
Ma Dong's eyes straightened, "Big, handsome, why do you give me an answer for these good things?" ”
"Silly boy." Tang Yi smiled: "Feel distressed to give some gifts? Without these things, how can I be blindfolded? ”
Ma Dong bit his lip, thought about it, and nodded solemnly, "I understand!" ”
Without saying a word, Ma Dong took more than a dozen boxes of good things and a handwritten letter from Tang Yi, and rushed to the barracks of Alta again.
Different from the previous voice, this time Ma Dong was very polite, presented the gift, and I answered that the light in front of me was bright, and I took Tang Yi's handwritten letter again.
Looking carefully, Tang Yi first expressed his praise to my answer, and then mentioned that the imperial court had paid attention to the matter of Kaibian, the scholar Tang Shunzhi had already played His Majesty, and Hu Zongxian, the secretary of the Ministry of War, also supported Kaibian, and now the problem was on the first assistant Xu Jie, and he did not dare to make a decision easily.
As long as the respected Altan Khan can give the Ming monarchs and ministers a face, the opening of border trade is just around the corner.
Tang Yi even said bluntly that he didn't care about what happened to the negotiations with the imperial court, as long as the two sides agreed, they could make other arrangements outside the agreement, and they would definitely not let His Majesty the Khan suffer......
In order to win the trust of others, Tang Yi deliberately stamped his public and private seals, and this time he couldn't fake it.
I looked at it carefully a few times, and finally smiled.
"Do you guys really say that?"
"That's natural, Altan Khan, our marshal is very sincere, he said that you won't be like the elm pimple of the imperial court, rather stubborn, a little face, compared with the benefits, it's nothing, you can weigh it clearly."
"You don't need to pour ecstasy soup on Ben Khan!"
I replied with a gloomy face, he was not in a good mood, he had just been forced into a corner by Ma Dong, and he had to hand over the traitor to Daming in exchange for his son Xin Ai.
He felt very shameless, and his face was beaten so hard that he was slapping and starring.
A group of lackeys who have been raised for more than ten years were handed over like this, and I was not reconciled, and he doubted Tang Yi's intentions, did he really want to pay tribute or delay time?
I replied that I could not rely on negotiations alone, and that the advantage of the Mongols was the knife in the hand, not the lip service. Doing business is never the opponent of the Han people, since this is the case, why not use your strengths and avoid your weaknesses, put a little pressure on Tang Yi, and let him bow his head as soon as possible?
Just as he was about to summon the generals to make a move, Tang Yi's gift was delivered.
Slap in the face and give a sweet date.
I have to say that Tang Yi's timing was too good.
I replied with a calm face and said: "Ben Khan can give you the face of the handsome, but Da Ming must give 500,000 taels every year as Ben Khan's military expenses, otherwise, hum!" ”
He glared at his triangular eyes, revealing a fierce look.
Ma Dong saw it in his eyes, and really wanted to rush forward and slaughter him, and he was still insatiable when he died?
Fortunately, before coming, Tang Yi had expected it, and gave Ma Dong a copy of the excerpt and asked him to hand it over to me.
"King Khan, Da Ming has ancestral teachings, does not pay tribute, does not call ministers, and will not give New Year's coins, it is impossible for you to let Da Ming give money directly!"
Ma Dong smiled and said: "But there is room for everything to turn around, the marshal said, he is going to set up a ticket number, specializing in trade between the two sides." The share capital is tentatively set at two million taels, and one and a half of both parties, in view of the difficulties of the grassland, the marshal can pay for you, and then dividends will be distributed on both sides according to the profits earned every year. ”
After a lot of effort, I finally understood what was going on, and I couldn't help laughing and scolding, "You Han people are hypocritical, dividends and New Year's coins, aren't you just changing your name?" What's the difference! ”
I didn't expect Tang Yi to be so easy to talk to, he just asked Xin Ai, except for when he entered the city, Tang Yi used him as a shield, and the rest of the time, Tang Yi treated him with courtesy and sent the best doctor to treat him.
In this way, Tang Yi is indeed different from other Ming officials.
"Okay, Ben Khan will believe Tang Yi once, you wait first, wait for Ben Khan to select a tributary mission, and follow Lord Tang into Beijing."
Ma Dong was not easy to refuse, he was taken down, and I was afraid of repeating the mistakes of the past, so I specially instructed that he should eat and drink well, and not be slack. Ma Dong didn't take it seriously, isn't it just a mission, and there can be any trouble.
How did he know that when the Mongolian Taiji heard that they were going to the capital, their eyes were red.
The blockade of one or two hundred years has made the grasslands extremely difficult, and there is nothing but cattle and sheep.
Accustomed to seeing the desert grassland, I have long wanted to see the world of flowers.
And as we all know, the Ming Dynasty has always been generous to the tributary missions, and if you take a little local product, you can exchange it for several times, more than ten times the reward, and a good opportunity to make a fortune, how can you miss it?
Big guy, you fight for me, everyone has to go, but the scale of the mission is limited, and everyone who can't lead the troops to Daming will leave me to answer a bare-bones commander, right?
The scramble became more and more intense, and even waved the old fist, and the gang fought first.
After discussing for a day, there was no result, they were still arguing, Ma Dongke was frightened, obediently, according to the days, ten days is almost the same.
Qi Jiguang did what he said, maybe he had already done it at this time, if he let me know that he was fooled. Don't cut yourself off yet!
Ma Dong is not afraid of death, but what is the matter of dying so aggrieved?
When he could barely sit still, the news finally came, and I was also angry, and he tried his best to overcome public opinion, and sent his brother Bayas Hale to lead the team, a total of more than 20 Taiji, counting the entourage of interpreters and escorts, the total number exceeded 300.
Haohao, followed Ma Dong out of the barracks, and went straight to Wanquan Right Guard.
Looking at the team behind, it is obvious that there are more people and more value than the last time. Ma Dong was nervous and excited, and his back was soaked with sweat.
He deliberately urged him to enter the city quickly, but he was afraid of startling the snakes, but time did not wait for anyone.
Ma Dong felt like a piece of meat in a pot, constantly being stir-fried and fried, all sides were mushy, and the oil was bubbling, the taste was indescribable, the clothes on his back were soaked, and his forehead was sweating for a while.
Finally arrived at the city, Daddy Ma Fang personally went out to greet him, and seeing that the huge team had entered, at this time, a group of cavalry suddenly rushed out of the army, rolled to the ground, and shouted at the top of his voice.
"Stop, come back! We were fooled! ”
"I don't know until now, it's too late!" Ma Dong took a sip, drew his waist knife, and without hesitation, cut down the few people who were lagging behind, and the rest of the Mongols were driven into the city. (To be continued.) )
