Chapter 7: Zhu Yousong's sarcasm
To be honest, talking about gambling with a famous Chinese general, especially when this general is still his idol, Damu felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart, but in the end, this uneasiness was overcome by curiosity. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"How does the prince gamble?" Damu asked timidly.
Zhu Changyuan's face was calm, but he smiled slightly in his heart, revealing a hint of banter.
This big tree has not grown up yet, and when he first saw himself, he still looked fearless, and he heard that his name could still be strong, and at this moment he heard that he was going to bet with him, and finally his momentum was not good.
But it's no wonder that he is like this, after all, he is a teenager, and if he is a different person, it is estimated that he will be even worse than him.
"This king speculates that there will be a tsunami hitting the shore tomorrow night, if you guess wrong, you will naturally lose, if you guess correctly, even if you lose, how about it?" Zhu Changyuan said without being salty.
Da Mu's back was full of cold sweat at the moment, and the nervousness on his face was even more obvious, but the education he received since he was a child was not as old-fashioned as ordinary people, although Zhu Changyuan was famous, he still believed that the tide would not come at the moment.
Because Zhu Changyuan's speculation is completely groundless!
Unless he is an immortal and has the ability to predict the future?
"If I win, give me the boat outside!" Da Mu himself didn't understand why he would say such an excessive thing, and after finishing speaking, he seemed to be able to hear his heartbeat, and he didn't dare to look up at Zhu Changyuan's eyes.
It's too much, it's too much, how can I make such a request?
Oki himself despises himself.
However, what he didn't expect was that Zhu Changyuan immediately agreed heartily: "Yes, if there is no tsunami tomorrow, this boat will be given to you, hehe, you kid dare to speak." ”
It's true? Did he really say yes?
At that moment, Damu was going crazy with happiness!
"But!" Zhu Changyuan's tone was slightly serious, and he said, "If you lose, just go with me and be a guard for me." Obey me for the rest of your life! ”
Da Mu listened to Zhu Changyuan's words, and his body trembled slightly.
Obey him for the rest of your life? This is a terrible gamble, if you lose, you will become someone else's slave in the future.
"Of course. You can still regret it! Zhu Changyuan's words fell on Da Mu's ears again.
Do you want to go back? Is the stakes a bit big?
Besides, my father has already declared himself a vassal to Emperor Hongguang, and if I follow Zhu Changyuan, I will be in trouble!
However, gambling on my own personal freedom with a big ship doesn't seem to be profitable for Zhu Changyuan!
A split second of time. Thousands of thoughts flashed through Da Mu's mind, and finally looked up at Zhu Changyuan's playful smile, as if he was underestimated, and blurted out: "Bet, I bet!" ”
I really don't believe that you can predict the future!
"Alright! You can go now, come back the morning after tomorrow, and be ready to come with me. Zhu Changyuan nodded and looked at the busy people, "I'm about to change places, and I have to mobilize the people from other places." ”
"Yes!" Damu bowed and retreated. was hit by Zhu Changyuan's self-confidence.
He told me to be ready to go with him the next morning. What is this? Why is he so confident?
No, there is a strange thing, maybe the tsunami will really come by then!
Zheng Damu thought about it, raised his head and said to the few soldiers who followed behind: "Go, notify all the sailors, assist the king of Yanming in migrating the people, and all the coastal areas in Fujian must be notified before tomorrow morning." ”
"Yes!" The soldiers in the back hugged the big wood and left.
Zhu Changyuan smiled slightly: The Damu family has a huge influence in Fujian and Taiwan, and with their help in informing the locals, the persuasion and mobilization ability should be much better.

At the same time. In the southern part of the Shandong Peninsula, ships from Riyue Island were the first to land here, and they reached the shore more than three hours ahead of Zhu Changyuan.
As soon as they reached the shore, all the soldiers on board separated. Mobilize and organize the local people.
"Folks, we are under the command of the king of Yanming, the sea is about to be angry, the tsunami is coming, and the tide that has not been seen in a hundred years will hit the coast for fifty miles, and all the villagers who live by the sea. Take shelter from high places! ”
In the beginning, the soldiers shouted with loudspeakers, but few responded.
Immediately, they changed their strategy, not only did some people hold loudspeakers and shout, some people went door-to-door to do ideological work, and some people went directly to the local county government to find the help of the administrator.
Although the Ming Dynasty is gone, the county government institutions in various places are still perfect, and they have not suffered large-scale destruction.
"That offspring, what are you talking about, a tsunami is coming?" An old man asked, pulling the soldier.
"Yes, uncle, King Yanming specially asked us to come over and tell each other, please take your belongings and big animals, go to a high place to take shelter first, and the tide will recede the morning after tomorrow." The soldier gave a bitter explanation.
The old man nodded and said, "Yes, although I have never seen a tsunami, I have heard the old people say it!" Okay, I'll move tomorrow! No, I'm going to move with my son right now. ”
A villager who thought he was smart next to him looked at the old man and sneered: "Old grandson, don't listen to their nonsense, it's the will of heaven whether the tide will come or not, who can say for sure?" He Yanming King is very good at fighting, but how can he know about this? ”
"yes!" The woman next to him thought that she was also mixed in, and said: "Who knows if these people are fake the name of King Yanming, anyway, I don't believe it, Uncle Sun, don't let people laugh at you." ”
The old grandson smiled and said, "I've lived so long and I'm about to go into the ground, and I'm afraid of any jokes." After speaking, he ignored the crowd and hurried to the house.
When he got to the house, he saw his two sons and shouted, "Quick, quick, come out for me, and bring the grain and cattle to the southern slope, for a tsunami is coming." ”
Old man Sun's eldest son listened to his father's words, and although he disagreed in his heart, he didn't dare to refute it, so he had to take his daughter-in-law to prepare to move together.
But the second son said: "Dad, they are all talking nonsense, who can say for sure whether this sea tide will come or not?" ”
"Phew!" The old grandson spat and said, "Stupid! ”
The second son asked, "Dad, you call me stupid?" ”
"You're the one who scolds!" The old grandson said: "Let you move things to the south slope and you will go, where is there so much nonsense, if the tide comes tomorrow, you will regret it!" ”
"What if you don't?" The old man is still pouting.
"It's better not to come, how much will it cost to move things back?" The old grandson asked.
The second son suddenly realized that he hurriedly pulled his daughter-in-law over to help move things.
One family moves ten families, in front of the Chinese people, the power of rumors is infinite, for example, Zhu Changyuan's hometown in later generations, once again heard that an oil depot in the town was going to explode, and the time and minutes were very clear.
Then, the people from the nearby villages began to drag their children and livestock all the way south, and then, everywhere they passed, the names of the villages were incompatible, and the people in Zhu Changyuan's village didn't know what was going on when they ran along, and they thought there was a war?
Later, the rumor was broken, and everyone knew the truth.
For example, now, at the beginning, the soldiers couldn't say the name of the village no matter how hard they tried, but once the old grandson took the lead, everything was much simpler.
Many people began to follow suit, and those who used to laugh at it gradually became afraid.
As a result, villages were emptied and towns began to move on a large scale.
From the southern part of the Shandong Peninsula to the southern part of Fujian, all the coastal presences and towns are interpreting this phenomenon.
However, there are also a few particularly sensitive areas where the relocation work is very difficult, and some people are constantly obstructing it.
For example, Huai'an and Yangzhou, the closest to Nanjing, were so difficult to relocate that the results were very small.
The city of Nanjing was not far from these state capitals near the sea, and after this kind of thing happened in the locality, the magistrate immediately flew a pigeon to pass on the news of Nanjing, and played what had happened.
Of course, Zhu Yousong had to stop the draft girl activities, attend the court meeting in person, and discuss with the ministers.
Unexpectedly, more than half of the people at the court meeting supported the relocation order issued by Zhu Changyuan, which made Emperor Hongguang inexplicably angry, and threw the song presented by a state capital at his feet, saying: "Stupid! ”
"These tricks to buy people's hearts are just to deceive the people, and you actually took them out to fool me!" As he spoke, he put on a full imperial prestige, looked at the people below and no one spoke, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Give an order to the prefect of Huai'an and Yangzhou, so that the local officials must stabilize the people, and no one is allowed to move!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Ma Shiying bowed down to receive the decree, drafted the decree on the spot, and then stamped the emperor's seal, and passed it to the yamen of the state capital overnight that night.
Zhu Yousong held up his big belly, burped, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Let's disperse." He said to Ruan Dayue again: "Qing accompany me to the side hall!" ”
Then, Ruan Dayue and Zhu Yousong walked to the side hall.
Zhu Yousong was blunt and asked: "King Yanming is bold, he dares to serve me, and he also ordered me to participate in the Xiangyang Alliance with December 20, how do I deal with it?" ”
Ruan Dayue was taken aback, he had only heard rumors before, but now that the emperor himself said it, it was naturally true.
"Your Majesty, by all means!" Ruan Dayue is also a well-educated person, and he knows how powerful it is, and said: "The minister risked death to play: Now the people in the world are unstable, and the former prince is nowhere to be found." People with ulterior motives do not even regard His Majesty as orthodox, and His Majesty must not go to Xiangyang to meet the alliance. ”
"I also know that there is a difference between respect and inferiority, if you go as if you are on order, but the thief Zhu Changyuan is so bold that he dares to threaten me, and he will say that he will go or go to the head, and he will be angry!"
"Your Majesty is worry-free, Nanjing City is as solid as today, there are thousands of guards in the capital, he Zhu Changyuan can't help you!"
"Hmm!" Zhu Yousong nodded, and said secretly, and then, a sneer appeared on his face, and said: "Zhu Changyuan can be described as a fool, and he didn't even recognize Emperor Lie's edict; And this tsunami, he dares to spread this kind of rumor indiscriminately, hmph, after tomorrow, it will be when his reputation is discredited.
