Chapter 120: What's Important?
Seeing the smile on Chen Xie's face, Yang Tinglin's mood became a little better, but as a result, his expression began to enrich again, just like opening a dye workshop, constantly changing colors. At this time, Lu Xiangsheng, who had a heavy face, also followed, the two looked at each other, Lu Xiangsheng took a few steps forward, stood beside Yang Tinglin and turned back, and the meaning was side by side.
"Sihua, we can't do it, it's not up to you to decide, on such an occasion, I won't pursue your insulting words." Yang Tinglin was still cowardly, and there was no way not to coax. Standing behind Chen Xie is the army, the first-class strong army of the Ming Dynasty, and it is estimated that the city wall of this Beijing division will not be able to stop him for a few days.
"Taxi? Hehe, you still represent yourself! Don't represent the world! Even you can only represent the scribes, not the whole of the priesthood. The words were unceremoniously, Lu Xiangsheng had been said before, he had no temper at all, Yang Tinglin's neck was thickened, and he pointed at Chen Xie and said angrily: "An dares to insult me? ”
Chen Xie still smiled confidently and calmly: "Don't dare, I'm just telling the truth." The taxi you said is not the same thing as the taxi I understand. Yang Tinglin felt that he had never been so angry in his life, and immediately sneered: "Okay, then tell me, what is a taxi?" Chen Xie pointed at himself unceremoniously and said: "See, a person like me can be regarded as a taxi in the real sense." If the country is in trouble, you can go to war and win if you pick up the guys, the country is peaceful, and there is a way to govern the country and the people. I'm in Daming, I've seen a total of two scholars in this world, I count one, Sun Ge Lao counts half, and Lu Jiandou counts half. ”
All these bullblows are flying in the sky. The question is still the same sentence, which cannot be refuted. The shortcomings of reading too much have been exposed, if these two don't learn and don't know how to learn, then there's nothing to say, just go straight to foul language, where is there so much nonsense in a quarrel. Problem two are well-educated people. As soon as I heard Chen Xie's words, I understood, and what everyone said had a heel. There are many people in the pre-Qin period, even if they are the ancestors of Confucianism, Confucius and Mencius, they are also good hands who can stab people with swords. As for the subsequent Han and Tang Dynasties, let alone that. There are too many historical figures who will be in and out of the picture, and they have to be counted for half a day. I want to refute, but unfortunately I can't say it, you can't say that Jing Ke, a man who is generous and sad, is not a scholar, right? Do you dare to say that Zhang Liang, who took a dangerous blow in Bolangsha, is not a soldier?
The whole of the Ming Dynasty. That is, Chen Xie can talk like this alone, and he doesn't have to worry about being sprayed to death. How else to say that the shortcomings of reading too much are exposed? I can't get over it with my conscience, and I can't say with my conscience that what Chen Xie said is wrong. People understand taxis, but they are different from Ming taxis.
"Hehe, I didn't expect Sihua to have a good argument!" Yang Tinglin is not a vegetarian either, this product is also a professional old troll in Daming officialdom for many years, he used to spray others, but now he is sprayed. Of course, willingly. If the front just doesn't move, then crook your building. The literati are skilled in playing this set. Give you the scholar to turn to the debate.
"I know you're not convinced, and I don't expect you to accept my point of view." After speaking, Chen Xie turned around and pointed at the well-organized army with a horsewhip, and said with a smile: "See, my army is already in battle formation, let the defenders on the city wall lay down their weapons." Go home and stay away, don't mess with me. ”
Yang Tinglin was directly stunned, what he said just now was good, why did he suddenly turn his face? What if a good gentleman does not use his mouth? "Chen Sihua, do you really want to use force?" Lu Xiangsheng took over. His eyes became stern. Chen Xie glanced at him lightly, turned around and dropped a sentence: "The city gate will not be opened in half an hour, and the artillery will start artillery preparations." ”
Chen Xie just left, and the two of them were still standing in place, not knowing what to do when they played? I didn't even have the courage to leave Chen Xie, and after looking at each other, we turned around and returned to the city together, got on the bamboo basket and went to the city, and the big guy discussed the idea of a solution.
Hong Chengchou on the head of the city will be sweating all over his head, why? The artillery under the city has begun to prepare, this is no longer a smoothbore gun, this is a new 75 caliber unmounted gun, rifled rear loading, and the Flying Eagle Cavalry is only equipped with eight. This will be when the city is in a posture, the people at the head of the city look at this distance, they all feel bad, at least six miles away, with a telescope can barely see clearly, thanks to the slow dark, and the sunset in the sky.
"Oh no, Chen Sihua is ready to bombard the city with artillery." Hong Chengchou hurriedly went over to greet the two who had crawled out of the basket and pointed to the artillery position being erected on a high ground outside the city. It would not only be the artillery that was being prepared, but the infantry was also building bunkers with sandbags, which were used against the red-coated cannons on the city's heads. At this distance, less than three hundred paces, the red-coated cannon can hit the target under the city in minutes, the problem is that the soldiers who rushed to the front of the soldiers did not see any panic, they were busy unhurriedly, and some people were already preparing torches.
"What should I do?" Hong Chengchou's face turned white, and the two who came up didn't have any good ideas, at this time Jiang Fengyuan appeared and said, "Did you send someone to report to Your Majesty?" The three of them swished at the scene, and the cold sweat came out, God, how could I forget about this matter. I was bent on fighting with His Majesty for the command of the new army, but I didn't expect that there was such an important matter.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry. In addition, he sent someone to inform Chen Sihua, and said that His Majesty would arrive immediately. Hong Chengchou was witty and immediately came up with an idea. Jiang Fengyuan was about to leave immediately, but was stopped by Yang Tinglin and said, "Slow, in this way, how can you make Your Majesty settle down in the future?" "Everyone thinks about it, Zhu Cihong is young now, and he can't suppress the ministers because he doesn't have enough prestige, if this matter is solved by him, there will be nothing to do with Wenchen in the future. I can't figure out if the situation of Gaozu Chengzu Dynasty is going to be repeated, who knows which of you present is the next Xie Jin? Looking back, don't say a word to Zhu Cihong, "That's who, who's still ......." "So whoever is this person will be buried alive in the middle of the night, and the reason why it is buried alive is not summer. It is too difficult to freeze to death on the frozen river.
Everyone shuddered at the thought of this, and this thing didn't seem so pretty.
At this time, someone came again, this time it was Zhou Yanru, and the first thing he said when he got out of the carriage: "How is the situation?" Zhou Yanru's expression was like constipation, and he struggled for a long time before saying: "Open the city gate, let Jingying recruit troops, stay in the camp and wait for the collection." ”
Hong Chengchou looked at the decisive Zhou Yanru in a daze, and Jiang Fengyuan shouted directly: "Chen Sihua, a chaotic minister and thief, does Zhou Xiang want to be in the same stream?" Zhou Yanru looked at him like a fool, pointed to the army outside the city and said, "Why don't you take someone out to kill for a while?" ”
Jiang Fengyuan was directly stunned, and then reacted and shouted: "Shi can be killed, but it cannot be humiliated, Jiang and Chen Thief do not share the sky." ”
Hong Chengchou said faintly: "This city wall is five zhang high." As soon as Jiang Fengyuan heard this, he immediately shut up, brushed his sleeves and said, "Hmph! I'm going to see His Majesty. Then he walked as fast as he could, and when he boarded the carriage, he glanced at the city with a resentful look.
The heavy city gate opened, and those who had experienced the battlefield knew that in front of the Hongyi cannons, this city would not last long. Not to mention Chen Xie from outside, he will definitely not be able to beat him, and the only feasible thing is to make peace. After all, Chen Xie did not pull the flag to rebel, even if he came to Beijing with the army, he is still the cabinet minister of the Ming Dynasty.
Chen Xie did not enter the city as soon as possible, but first let the soldiers enter the city, and after controlling the city gate, he rode into the city, and when he saw a cabinet minister, he turned over and dismounted, and bowed his hand: "Zhou Xiang, colleagues, I'm sorry, I really don't have much patience and time, so I have to make this decision." ”
Zhou Yanru did not answer this, but asked rhetorically: "Sihua, who did the matter of Yangzhou?" That's a point, and now it's the question that everyone is most concerned about. The severity of this question will determine how many people will die in the Ming Dynasty in the future, and how many people will be unlucky.
Chen Xie shook his head with a smile and said, "I don't know yet, I haven't checked it out." No, hurry up and rush to Beijing, Zhou Xiang, colleagues, you really disappointed me. I thought that after the baptism of external humiliation and internal strife during the years of the first emperor, everyone could have some understanding and understand and support the reform of the first emperor. It's a pity that you people still attach too much importance to the interests of the so-called scholars and doctors, but put the interests of the country behind. To put it mildly, don't be unhappy when you hear it, you, even if the dynasty changes, it will not delay you from coming out to be officials of other dynasties. ”
After saying a word, Zhou Yanru's reaction was to cover his face with his sleeve and sighed: "Zhou is really afraid that he will go underground to see the first emperor in the future, and he doesn't know how to tell him." As soon as Zhou Yanru said this, the others had nothing to say, even if they were not convinced, they didn't know how to refute it.
Chen Xie continued: "It's good to have this epiphany! In fact, whether it is to open the sea or set up industry and commerce in recent years, it is nothing more than to find a way for the gentry of the Ming Dynasty to develop, so as not to bury the silver in the cellar and turn black. The current situation of the Ming Dynasty was created by the first emperor, you don't cherish it, and your majesty doesn't cherish it, Chen almost moved the idea that the Tao can't be done. ”
This is a bit pretentious, and everyone present thought in their hearts, why didn't you leave earlier, why did you appear here? Yangzhou was assassinated, you can block the news well, why bother to let Yangzhou's messenger spread a fake news?
There were all kinds of complaints in his heart, but they couldn't be said, or Zhou Yanru asked Chen Xie: "What is important when you enter Beijing this time?" (To be continued......) R1292
