Deng She was very surprised, and only posted the list for half a day, but there was no hope that someone really came to vote. Hurriedly invited in, and looked familiar, but it was the last of the three people who stood without kneeling at first yesterday night. He was joined by two red-turban soldiers guarding him.

A proclamation: "Your Excellency, this guy heard from nowhere that the adults summoned the generals to recruit talents, and they made endless troubles and tossed for a long time. I had no choice but to bring it. ”

Dunsher was disappointed. Of course, he seeks talent rather than virtue, but the hypocritical villain who is condescending and respectful is more disgusting to him than the pure and true villain of Ha Guangxiu. The only one who died through the ages, this kind of person, who seems to be iron-clad, full of loyalty and morality, in front of the butcher's knife, immediately returned to his original form.

Wen Huaguo and others, who wanted to see the excitement, were all curious. Those who have a good temper turn a blind eye; The temperament was dry, mocking a few words, shouting to the soldiers, taking the selected woman, and going to be happy.

Deng She was strong in spirit, just as if this was the second horse bone. He got up to welcome: "I saw Mr. last night, and he was polite, and I knew that Mr. had a splendid belly." Coming to vote today has strengthened me like a tiger. Haven't asked for advice yet, up and down? ”

Hearing Deng She's two words, the man's face turned red and he looked a little ashamed. Hooked his head, and mustered up the courage to raise it, the death of General Manager Liu and the three thousand soldiers shocked him too much. Just when he came in, the white and miserable bones of Daruhua on the pillar made his legs and feet even weaker.

He had thought that death would be easy. The knife was put on the neck, only to realize that it was better to be alive than anything else.

Moreover, what Deng She said last night was also very right, the Miao descendants of the Song family of King Xiao Ming, to a certain extent, they are really orthodox in the Mandate of Heaven. Even if the imperial court thinks that the Song, Jin, and Yuan are each orthodox? Having found an excuse, he was slightly angry.

"Don't dare to respect, the villain's surname is Wu, and his name is Crane Year." He fell to his knees and spoke.

"What official position do you hold?"

"Pseudo-Yuan knows the same way."

Tongzhi is the second officer, the status of the second officer, and assists the general manager in handling government affairs. In other words, this person is the third person in Yongping Road. The Yuan Dynasty customized, and Tongzhi was generally served by Hui Hui. There are occasional exceptions, but there are only two kinds, or there are roots, or talents are outstanding.

What does Deng She think, a person who takes the initiative to throw in thieves and calls Yuan a "pseudo-yuan" doesn't seem to have a heel. There is only the second possibility, this person is extremely talented. He raised his interest and ordered his soldiers: "Please sit with Mr. Wu." ”

Wu Henian hesitated and didn't dare to sit down. But I didn't sit, and I was afraid that Deng She would be angry. Don't look at Deng She's gentle words at this time, when he killed Manager Liu last night, wasn't he as calm as water? If you say you kill someone, you will kill someone, and if you say you will turn your face, you will turn your face. Not only killed, but also viciously. stripped the four words that showed the public that they were not of my race.

He got up from the ground with a shaky rope, felt his chair, and sat down a little on his ass; He bowed and muttered: "The elder gave, don't dare to resign." ”

By a man in his forties, called an elder. Deng She almost wanted to burst into laughter, he coughed hurriedly, and asked Wu Henian: "The Han people occupy the position of the same knowledge, which shows that Mr. is talented." Excuse me, how did the gentleman teach me? After a tired night and never closing his eyes, he came up sleepy, didn't want to talk too much nonsense, and went straight to the point.

That's too broad a question. The clouds and mountains are covered with fog, how can one teach me, and others will probably be dumbfounded, and they don't know what to answer. Wu Henian is indeed talented, and besides, he made trouble all morning, and he pondered all morning, seeing Deng She, what words should he use to impress him, let him value himself and not kill himself.

Coming prepared, he naturally did not panic and said: "The villain is stupid. Dare to guess what adults are worried about. One is to appease the people, the second is to raise food, and the third is to recruit soldiers. ”

If you guess these three, you will be considered a talent. Deng She listened to him continue.

"Raising food is small, Yongping is rich, and there is enough grain in the storehouse, which is enough for adults. Let's talk about Fumin, Mr. Liu serves as a pseudo-yuan, and he doesn't know the current affairs, but he is known as the blue sky among the foolish people. Wu Henian paused, peeked at Deng She, and saw that he was not hesitant, so he dared to continue, "Your Excellency will execute him and hang his corpse in the city tower." According to the villain's opinion, but it is, but it is ,......" He gritted his teeth, not to say that he was dead, but to say that he might still live, "The adult is wrong." ”

"Oh?" Deng Sheben was a smart person, and he immediately knew what Wu Henian meant. I can't help but regret that no one of the people has joined the army, which may be one of the reasons. He was sleepy and asked, "Then what do you say, how can I remedy it?" "I immediately sent someone to lay down his body and bury it thickly." ”

Suddenly remembering something, Deng She hurriedly stood up and called Zhao Guo: "Go quickly, ask Wen Baihu to come back to Manager Liu's wife." You go in person, escorted home. Who lives in her house now? ”

"Huang Qianhu."

"Ask him to move away and choose another compound." Deng She called back Zhao Guo, who had taken the order, "First go and put down the body of Chief Manager Liu, and spread the word to the people, the violent corpse is because he forgot the roots of the Han people, as a punishment." The punishment is enough, and now I want to thank him for his usual thoughts and burial for the people of Yongping Road. Also, how many concubines does Mr. Liu have? All of them must be returned, sent back. After finishing speaking, he sat back in his seat and asked Wu Henian, "Is this enough?" ”

Wu Henian first mentioned Manager Liu, in addition to the elements of planning for Deng She, there are selfish intentions. has been a colleague for many years, and once he suffered, Mr. Liu was honest and loved the people, and he was a first-class good official. He no longer has a conscience, and he can't bear to see him be humiliated after his death, and his wife and concubine will not be protected. Therefore, killing two birds with one stone, in the name of the public, to achieve private wishes.

After listening to Deng She's arrangement, Wu Henian secretly admired. In an instant, I can think of a reason, and I can connect the violent corpse with the thick burial without far-fetchedness; It has played a role in setting an example, and has also given people the impression of cherishing the people. You have to be in a hurry.

As soon as it was a hit, he was sure in his heart: "Adults are smart, far better than villains." That's a fitting arrangement. It is enough to pacify the people, but as for recruitment, it is still a little insufficient. ”

"Sir, please." Dunshe was focused.

"The indigenous people inside and outside Yongping are mostly Aritian families. Pseudo-Yuan is in the Qian'an area of dozens of miles north of the city, with Tuntian. Although there was a war, the 40,000 or 50,000 people on the road were never threatened by hunger or rebellion. Adults recruit troops, and naturally no one will come. Wu Henian was eloquent and thorough, and Deng Shedai was empowered, and immediately thought of a solution.

The solution came from the Koreans. "Eternal Peacekeepers?" He asked.

"At present, there are 54,324 people on the road, and 22,130 natives." When to speak, to speak your own opinion; When to shut up and listen to Shangguan play; Wu He has been an official for 20 years, and he is clear.

The displaced people have no land, and their food and clothing are all from the natives. As long as you think of a way, let them have nothing to eat and use, and the soldiers don't have to worry. It's not difficult to come up with a way, but it's hard to come up with a way to keep the homeless people from knowing. Deng She pondered for a long time and asked tentatively, "Rumors? ”

"Exactly!"

This conversation was so enjoyable that it was a pity. Wu Henian sighed in his heart: A beautiful woman, why should she be a thief? A thought flashed through me, and I realized that I had changed my court. Hurry up and remind: keep in mind the identity, the pseudo-yuan, the pseudo-yuan is the thief.

Among the scattered rumors, the Great Song Dynasty selected Yongping as the place to garrison troops, and within a few days, a million troops arrived. Prepare to attack the Kyoshi from here. This rumor will be broken as soon as it is poked, and those who know the current situation will not believe it. But the three of them became tigers, and word of mouth passed on from mouth to mouth, and they did not believe it, but they also became believers.

It is good to believe, to believe it to be doubtful, or to believe it not to believe.

It's always right to be prepared. What to prepare? Grain. Every family has grain in stock, and the grain in the warehouse is all in the hands of the red scarves, so that the displaced people have no food to eat, and they can only join the army. If you don't join the army, the war will be chaotic, where else can it go? It is difficult to find another city similar to Yongping that has not been plagued by soldiers.

In the midst of military turmoil, everyone is in danger, and this kind of rumor is the most common. No one could have imagined that it would be a red scarf.

Solved this most headache problem. Deng She had a big heart and changed his opinion of Wu Henian. Hypocritical villains, and useful hypocritical villains, are still very different. He got up and stretched, and sent someone to invite Chen Hu, Chen Hu has always been cautious, and it is most appropriate for him to handle this matter.

Waiting for nothing, seeing Wu Henian's sitting posture, Deng She smiled: "Sir, why should you be restrained." Since you voted for me, you are your own family, and it is best to do whatever you want. It's always like this, I'm afraid that my husband's body won't be able to bear it. ”

Wu Henian rubbed his body in embarrassment, climbed up an inch, and slid down two inches. In order to hide his uneasiness, he had nothing to say: "This city must not be defended." Adults stop on foot, want to go to Shandong? Or do you want to go to Goryeo? ”

Deng She was taken aback: "Goryeo? ”

Wu Henian stood up, Deng She's tone startled him, thinking that he had said the wrong thing, he fell to the ground: "The villain should die!" The villain is demoted, and he really shouldn't ask about such a major military aircraft matter. Heaven and earth are the proof, just and the adults have a seat to answer, and the villain has suddenly hated the meaning of being late. The adults are wise and martial, and the villains are loyal and have no ambitions. ”

Dunshe interrupted his chatter: "Get up, sit down and talk." ”

Wu Henian trembled, sat back, and slid down two inches compared to just now.

"You just said Goryeo?"

"The villain heard last month that Guan Pingzhang spread the word to Goryeo, so he said it casually. It's really not the villain's intention, the villain is bold and arrogant, guessing the national military, damn it! Damn it! ”

Guan Duo passed on to Goryeo, before going to Toyoju. At that time, he was still in Shangdu, and Deng She also knew. He woke up from a dream, and another major problem that he had been worrying about for more than ten days was resolved.

In Shandong, Mao Gui and Tian Feng have been operating for many years. If there are only 800 subordinates, it is okay to go. Now, tens of thousands of people can be recruited in a blink of an eye, thinking about the death of his father and Deng San in this life, how can he be willing to send people to the fence again. Moreover, the names of Mao Gui and Tian Feng, he didn't even know before he crossed over, so it can be seen that in the end, it was also a defeat.

What's the difference between that and throwing yourself to death? The so-called Zhu Yuanzhang is the same, you can go when there are 800 people. Tens of thousands of people are different. First of all, Mao Gui and Tian Feng will not let them pass.

Instead of putting your life in the hands of others, why not fight. In this troubled world, in the era of cannibalism, fight with the sky, fight with the earth, and fight with people! And a taste of the endless taste?

You can't go to Shangdu, you can't go to Shandong, and you can't go to Jiangnan.

Liaodong is also not allowed to stay.

Not to mention the kings of Mobei and the kings of the east and west, Liaodong borders the belly, the junction of the two provinces stretches for thousands of miles, and the station Chiyi Road extends in all directions, and the heavy troops gathered in the belly can enter at any time. There is no separation of mountains and rivers in the province, the north and south are connected, and a large number of Yuan troops occupy important towns, which is convenient for action. This is also one of the reasons why Guan Duo's Northern Expeditionary Army was forced to fight on the move all the time, and there were few sieges and fortifications. Although it occupied some important towns such as Liaoyang, it could only concentrate its forces to hold on, and it could not open up the situation.

It's not that I don't want to keep it, and it's not that I don't know that I don't have a foothold, or I don't have much room for development. But it can't be defended at all, occupy a city, the Yuan army comes to help from all sides, and there are fewer soldiers, so they can't hold it; There are too many soldiers, but there is not enough food. As soon as the Yuan army is surrounded, how can the lonely city be defended? Therefore, the whole army can only be concentrated together and fight on the move.

Faced with this situation, the decision to pass on Goryeo was made under these circumstances. If it weren't for the rescue of Henan and rushed to Fengzhou, I am afraid that by this time, Deng She would have already gone to Goryeo with the army.

Goryeo, since the Liao Dynasty, has been repeatedly invaded in the past two or three hundred years. The royal power has fallen, and the power of the ministers has been dictatorial for a hundred years; To the founding of the Mengyuan Dynasty, he conquered several times and plundered the population. The two conquests of Japan caused Goryeo to provide money and materials and build a large number of ships, and there were three separate rebellions in the country, and the national and civil power had long been empty. Like a decaying tree, vulnerable. Even so, at the request of Meng Yuan, tens of thousands of troops were requisitioned into the Central Plains to assist in the suppression of the Red Turbans, and the current situation in his country can be imagined.

In terms of geographical environment, Goryeo hangs overseas, and between Liaodong, the Yalu River is dangerously blocked. Facing Shandong, Henan and Jiangbei across the sea, these two places are the sphere of influence of the Red Turban, and the sea route is direct and unimpeded. If you capture Goryeo, you can communicate with each other, and you will be able to figure it out.

When Deng She thought of this, he was not happy but anxious. Without soldiers in hand, everything is empty talk.

He summoned his own soldiers and said solemnly: "Give Mr. tea." ”

1. Root foot.

The deeper the origin, the greater the root, the higher the chance of his disciples, and the broader the future. The highest-level official positions are almost occupied by dozens of major families. Among them, there are Mongolians, Semu, and a few Han military families. The changes in government personnel in the Yuan Dynasty were nothing more than a game in which the people of these roots-legged families sat on chairs. There is no big-rooted family among the southerners, so it is difficult to enter the office, and it is even more difficult to seek a high position.

The most rooted family is Genghis Khan's "Four Masters", this kind of root foot is called the old slave root foot. The old slave and the slave of Genghis Khan. Their subordinates often occupy eight or nine out of ten senior officials.

"It's a pity, the law of the Yuan Dynasty is to take people and employ people, but only on the roots. The rest of the people who are in charge of politics are all rooted people. The "southerners" go to shoot every year, and they reach the old Juru crown. "Mongolian, Semugen's children" do not need to be literate, and twenty are high-ranking officials. ”

2, Goryeo.

In February, he moved to Goryeo: Remembering that the people had been trapped in Hu for a long time, he advocated raising troops to restore the Central Plains. The east exceeds Qilu, the west sends a letter to Qin, the south passes through Liangguang, and the north arrives at Youyan, all of which are attached. Like the hungry get the anointing beam, and the sick meet the medicine stone. Now the generals are ordered to strictly discipline the soldiers, so that they will not disturb the people, and those who are naturalized by the people will be appeased, and those who are obsessed with the brigade will be guilty.
