Chapter 269: Crazy Plan
Seeing Yin Shen's body, all the soldiers couldn't help but take off their helmets and bow their heads in silence for him.
Zhu Youcheng asked in a deep voice, "Has anyone watched the scene of General Yin's sacrifice?" ā
The soldiers shook their heads, and one soldier replied: "The troops who followed General Yin have all been killed, and most of the murderers have been turned into char in the fire, so how General Yin will be loyal to the country has become a permanent mystery." ā
If it weren't for the martyrs in front of him, Zhu Youcheng would almost laugh out loud. Is this soldier composing poetry? I can only hear his voice low and slow, very much like a standard recitation, especially the last line, which is far-reaching, profound, and full of poetry.
Another soldier replied in a loud voice: "My lord, although I didn't see the scene of General Yin's sacrifice, I can see the injury to General Yin's eye very clearly. ā
"Tell me about it."
The soldier's speech was not very eloquent, and he told the heroic story of Yin Shen swallowing his injured eyeball dryly. However, although it was not modified in any way, Yin Shen's heroism still moved the soldiers present to tears.
Qin Liangyu asked Wu Huping quietly: "Why did Lord Zhu ask about the process of General Yin's sacrifice?" ā
"General Qin doesn't know? Lord Zhu is a Wenqu star, and he wants to write about the process of General Yin's sacrifice, so that everyone in the Ming Dynasty can praise General Yin's reputation. Has General Qin read the "Di Bao" Supplement? Some time ago, the stories of the Liaodong battlefield published above were all written by Lord Zhu himself. It's a pity that Guiyang was besieged, and the newspaper couldn't be delivered, and I don't know how Lord Zhu praised me. ā
Qin Liangyu nodded, a thought secretly floated in his heart, looking at Zhu Youcheng's eyes was a little special. Wu Huping was startled when he saw it, this is the end. General Qin will not be teased by King Xin's words. However, Wu Huping is very clever and knows that this matter is not in his hands, and he can't control it. He pretended not to know.
Zhu Youcheng let out a long sigh, the materials for Yin Shen's story had been almost collected. General Yoon is a hero, and the only thing he can do is make a name for him. Now that the post station has been opened, I will start writing in the evening, and let the post station send it away tomorrow morning.
Zhu Xieyuan asked people to go to the city to buy the best coffin and put Yin Shensheng together-
The group returned to the lobby.
Zhu Xieyuan had some doubts in his heart, and he didn't know how Zhu Youcheng used a very small number of troops to break the rebels, so he asked Zhu Youcheng for the details of the Battle of Guiyang.
Before Zhu Youcheng could speak, he saw Wang Chengen move a table. Cao Huachun moved a chair in. Zhu Youcheng's heart was bright, knowing that King Xin's skills were itchy for a while, and he was ready to compile the Battle of Guiyang into a commentary and tell the generals from Sichuan.
He smiled and said, "Your Excellency, you don't need to ask any more questions, and listen to the king slowly." ā
As soon as the waking wood sounded, King Xin began to tell the stories that had happened in the past few days, from the discussion of the people to the burning of the city, from Zhu Youcheng's anger to Surtai, to Chen Guoqi's destruction of the enemy, no matter how big or small. It is the head and the head. After all, he has been instructed by a master and taught by a famous teacher, and Xinwang's storytelling is very good. Hearing this, the generals smiled all of a sudden, clenched their fists all of a sudden, and their palms were dripping with sweat.
The wakewood rang again, and Shin Oh finished his speech. The generals looked at Zhu Youcheng's eyes and changed again. Be bold and careful, this is a good evaluation in the hearts of the generals; Yin damage and viciousness, this is a negative evaluation in the hearts of the generals.
Zhu Xieyuan sighed for a long time and asked, "What is Lord Zhu going to do next?" Is it to go with this official to exterminate another Yiren rebel army led by Hao Chongming, or to return to Beijing directly? ā
Zhu Youcheng was a little strange and asked, "The rebellion in Guizhou has not been quelled. Why are you leaving? ā
Zhu Xieyuan said: "The 200,000 rebels in Guizhou have been defeated by you and have become stragglers. It can no longer have an impact on any county or government in Guizhou. Sending a large army to exterminate these small groups of rebels is tantamount to punching ants with their fists. Bombarding mosquitoes with firebolts is twice as effective with half the effort. These things only need to be handed over to the local garrison, and there is no need to bother the army of you and me. ā
Zhu Youcheng shook his head and said, "No, I will not leave Guizhou until the source of the disaster in Guizhou is cleared." Because whatever I do, I like to start and finish well. ā
Zhu Xieyuan knew everything about Guizhou's shape, and as soon as Zhu Youcheng spoke, he immediately understood what Zhu Youcheng meant, and asked, "What do you mean by the Shuixi family?" ā
He stood up, paced back and forth a few steps, and said, "I will never allow you to touch the Xi'an family!" ā
"But why?"
"Guizhou can't be chaotic. The Shuixi family has guarded Guizhou for generations, and if it is moved to settle down, the people will be unstable, and there will inevitably be turmoil, and then Guizhou will be completely chaotic. In this rebellion of luxury, how much military spending did the Ming Dynasty invest in Guizhou, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan, do you know? Three million taels per year, which is equivalent to the military expenditure of Liaodong. If it weren't for the imperial court that began to reform the salt administration in the third year of the Apocalypse and collected a lot of silver from the profiteers, the finances of the Ming Dynasty would have collapsed long ago. ā
"It is precisely because the An family has guarded Guizhou for generations that I especially want to move them. Banzhou Yang Yinglong, Shuishui An Bangyan, Yongning Luxury Chongming, three Yiren riots, which one was not the Tusi family who took the lead for generations to guard the local Tusi family? This is enough to prove that the Ming Dynasty's Tusi policy is problematic, the Yi people only know the Tusi but do not know that there is an emperor, the Tusi guide, and the Yi people dare not fight the north. So as long as Tusi is ambitious, the rebellion of the Yiren will never be quelled. In order to solve the problem of the rebellion of the Yiren, it is necessary to solve the problem at the root -- to put an end to the Tusi system. ā
Zhu Xieyuan pondered for a moment and said, "What you said is very reasonable, but this matter must be considered in the long run. ā
"The emperor said in the poem "Man Jianghong" that 10,000 years is too long, just seize the day." Zhu Youcheng pulled the tiger skin of the Emperor of the Apocalypse as a banner, "Now is a God-given opportunity." According to the captive's confession, more than eighty percent of the 200,000 troops cobbled together by An Bangyan were borrowed from various Yi tribes, that is to say, after defeating these 200,000 rebels, the Yi people could no longer afford to make big waves. If we don't make a decision and wait for the people to recuperate, we will have to spend more troops and military spending to implement the policy of changing the land and returning it to the river. ā
"Man Jianghong" is a word, not a poem, and Zhuang Yuanlang made a mistake. However, will the Yi people obey Wanghua? ā
"Definitely not, so I'm planning to wipe out the Yiren."
"What? Zhu Youcheng, you are young. is so tyrannical, if you want to destroy a nation, aren't you afraid that heaven will condemn you? ā
Zhu Youcheng waved his hand. Said: "Lord Zhu, I naturally will not slaughter the people of the Ming Dynasty. Listen to me slowly. I will write to the emperor and build yƬ Daming to absorb Yi people to become Ming people, and then there will be no Yi people in the world, only Ming people. ā
Zhu Xieyuan was almost dizzy by him, and said: "Yiren is a Ming person, do you still need to absorb it?" ā
"No, that's a geographical, not psychological." Zhu Youcheng said solemnly. "I once told the emperor, what is a Ming person? Those who explain the text, learn the Ming characters, give a clear name, abide by the Ming etiquette, and abide by the law are the Ming people, otherwise they cannot be regarded as the real Ming people, at most they can only be regarded as temporary residents of the Ming Dynasty. I plan to incorporate the Yi people into the culture of the Ming Dynasty, so that they can enjoy the civilization and prosperity of the Ming Dynasty. In this way, their sense of national identity will be greatly strengthened, and their national consciousness will gradually weaken, and they will no longer engage in independent and illegal activities. ā
Zhu Xieyuan and the generals present were dumbfounded when they heard this, and they couldn't imagine that Zhu Youcheng actually had such a crazy plan hidden in his heart. However, if Zhu Youcheng's plan succeeds, the southwest of the Ming Dynasty will be peaceful from now on, and there will be no more war.
"Do the Yi people agree to do this? The officials of the court will not impeach us, so we have nothing to do. ā
"Yiren is not monolithic. They are riddled with internal contradictions. Lord Zhu must have heard that there are two kinds of Yi people, one is called Heiyi. The other is called Baiyi, also known as Wazi. The number of black-yis is very small, accounting for only one-tenth of the total number of black-yi, but this one-percent of the black-yis accounts for more than ninety percent of the wealth of the yi. What's even more terrifying is that Heiyi still has the right to kill Bai Yi, and uses violence to force Bai Yi to work for them for free. In the words of our Ming Dynasty, Heiyi is a slave owner, while Baiyi is a slave. Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, we Ming people have begun to abolish the slavery system. How can we look at the compatriots of the Great Ming. What about putting up with this bullying? Therefore, after the rebellion is suppressed, I will lead the army to liberate Baiyi. Let them enjoy the freedom and equality of the Ming Dynasty. ā
The generals from Sichuan couldn't help but applaud, and Zhu Youcheng's words were full of deep blood and family affection between compatriots. Let them feel that it is a very just thing to overthrow the tyrannical rule of the black Yi and restore the free body of the white yi. Not to mention that these remarks reached the ears of Yushi, they didn't dare to impeach, even if they were impeached, they would have to do it. Yes, seeing that his compatriots are being bullied and indifferent, what kind of Ming people are they?
Zhu Xieyuan was still a little uneasy, and asked, "Can you guarantee that Bai Yi will accept your ethnic policy?" ā
"Adults don't know, Yi people admire the Ming culture very much, and are proud to use the Ming language, wear the Ming clothes, and get the name of the Ming Dynasty. On the way to Guiyang, I met a group of Yi people, who were neither Heiyi nor Baiyi, but Yiren between Heiyi and Baiyi. At that time, they wanted to join the army, so I gave them the name of Daming, and their excitement was overflowing. Later, let them change Daming's clothes, and they did not hesitate. With this evident proof, I believe that the Yi people will definitely accept my national policy. ā
Qin Liangyu nodded, made a circumstantial evidence, and said: "The ethnic minorities in the southwest do admire the Han family very much...... Daming culture is proud of explanatory texts, learning Ming characters, naming names, keeping Ming etiquette, and abiding by the law. It's a pity that the Han family has always been a little prejudiced against us, and some local officials even have many difficulties for the ethnic minority people who took the name of the Ming Dynasty, and I don't know what they think. ā
"Stupid!" Zhu Xieyuan reprimanded lightly and said, "Those Han officials think that the people of ethnic minorities are not worthy of using Han names, so don't they know that Emperor Taizu Gao has always advocated the policy of national co-prosperity?" The voluntary integration of ethnic minorities into the Ming Dynasty is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, how can these shallow people interfere? ā
Zhu Youcheng heard Qin Liangyu say this, and he was also angry, and he did everything possible to pull the Yi people into the cultural system of the Ming Dynasty, but some Ming officials personally pushed the ethnic minorities farther and farther, I really don't know how these people's brains grow.
Suddenly, a guard walked in and whispered a few words to Fu Zonglong.
Fu Zonglong laughed after hearing this, and said loudly: "Two Lord Zhu, we listened to the report of the soldiers who monitored the enemy's movements, and there was the sound of a large number of people and horses moving in the distance, and it seems that there are rebels who don't know whether they are alive or dead.
