Chapter Twenty-Three: Fighting for the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains
"Since you don't refute it, I'll assume that you don't object."
Xiao Yun continued to wipe the bathtub and said in an electronically synthesized female voice:
"The second question, the world has been reduced to Si, how to solve it next?"
"What do you think should be done?" Cheng Jinyang resorted to rhetorical questioning.
"The Sima family is a very magical family." The other party did not answer directly, but changed the topic, "First, they uphold the supremacy of science and technology, believing that all problems can be solved through new science and technology, and even do not hesitate to ignore ethics and morals, and adopt all kinds of crazy experimental methods to promote the scientific research project at hand." ”
"If Sima Zhengdu had a little awe of human beings themselves, he would not have carried out large-scale human modification and transplantation without the mechanism of the ability being studied clearly."
Cheng Jinyang was speechless.
For example, the princess's sister's military prosthetic leg, which replaces the originally healthy organs and tissues with machinery, it is indeed easy to feel uncomfortable when you think about it, but she herself seems to be completely accustomed to it and does not feel different.
"Second, apart from the traits of mad scientists, most of them are paranoid idealists at the same time." Xiao Yun finished wiping the bathtub and turned around to pick up the toilet brush, "Sima Zhongda, for example, stubbornly harbors strong malice towards the family, thinking that it is the family that blocks the way for the poor and the common people to rise. This prejudice was also passed on to each generation of emperors after him. ”
"But isn't the royal family the biggest family in the world? Ha! The synth let out a sneer, but it still sounded like a stick reading due to the electro-mechanical synthesis.
Cheng Jinyang did not speak. He suddenly remembered that when they first met, he heard the princess's sister in the bathroom make an undisguised threat to Zhi.
If he is a poor family or a commoner, of course, he is definitely on the side of the princess sister. However, his current identity and the characteristics of the golden finger determine that only the girl of the family can become his wings and take him to Wuhu, which is very embarrassing.
Although the princess's sister did not force him to stand in line, if what this person said was true, then the contradiction between the royal family and the family would detonate sooner or later.
So when the time comes, standing between the princess sisters and the girls of the family who have broken up, should you choose the tree on this side or the forest on the other side?
It seems that the four-word mantra must be sacrificed.
After the arrival of the south, the imperial power fell from the peak to the bottom, and all the scholars were able to oppose the guest, and the confidence of public opinion was unprecedentedly high. But there are still quite a few differences on how to deal with imperial power. ”
Xiao Yun finished disposing of the toilet, began to mop the floor, and continued to tell:
"Some of the scholars still have a ridiculous trust in the royal family, believing that they can limit the imperial power of the Sima family and use their prestige to continue to rule the country."
"The other part of the Shi clan believes that it is necessary to overthrow the rule of the Sima family, and they do not hesitate to launch an armed seizure of power for this purpose."
"So, you are the radicals who support the revolution." Cheng Jinyang said.
"Yes, but it doesn't matter." Xiao Yun cleaned the mop and wrung it out on the tiles, "The important thing is that such irreconcilable differences have been continuing, and they have gradually evolved into a trend of mutual internal friction." ”
"Under the leadership of the five families headed by Wang Maohong, the royalists accounted for the majority of the Nandu Jiankang clan. The essential reason for these people's arguments for peace with the Sima family was that they wanted to settle for a corner of Jiankang and not spare resources to wage war on the Northern Expedition, which required a centralized central core to do so, and a Sima emperor who had lost his prestige was impossible. ”
The other party laughed coldly: "Most of the Jiankang scholars moved south with the imperial court, and it has been a hundred years since then, and the vast majority of scholars have forgotten what the demons look like, and they have also forgotten that the northern Central Plains is their homeland, and it is not surprising that there will be this trend of peace-seeking thoughts." ”
"However, every day in the north, dock forts and settlements are destroyed by demons. Since the fall of Songjiang into ruins, the displaced people of the Central Plains could not go south by sea, so they could only reach Xiangyang by land, and then converge on the Wuchang side. Therefore, the overall public opinion of the Wuchang Shi clan is diametrically opposed to the public opinion tendency of the Jiankang Shi clan. ”
"The vast majority of the Wuchang clan are calling for a northern expedition as soon as possible."
"If the Jiankang Imperial Court is willing to support the Northern Expedition, Wuchang will never be in conflict with the Jiankang Army. The fact is that the imperial court is neither willing to take the initiative in the Northern Expedition nor willing to support the Northern Expedition of Wuchang, so we must first separate the victory and defeat with the imperial court and end this situation of dragging each other down with internal friction, otherwise even if Wuchang insists on going its own way, the Northern Expedition will never succeed. ”
Xiao Yun finished wiping the floor tiles, began to wipe the sink, and continued:
"Of course, an open confrontation with the imperial court does not mean that Wuchang declares war on the Jiankang clan. After the overthrow of the rule of the Sima family, all the scholars remained an important force in the Northern Expedition of the New Dynasty...... In particular, talented young scholars like you have always been the object of the need for 'key unity' emphasized by the Wuchang County Office. ”
Seeing that Cheng Jinyang didn't speak, he said to the convenience:
"Why, it's surprising that I didn't try to persuade you to join the Wuchang County Prince?"
"Cheng Jinyang, you are the only object worth fighting for by the Shendu Cheng family, but Wuchang's side will not force you to turn against the family. I have managed to get in touch with you this time, just to let you know the reason for the war on the Wuchang side: we are not raising an unjust war, but fighting to save the people of the fallen Central Plains and create a new and brighter future for mankind. ”
"I see." Cheng Jinyang nodded, "Finished?" ”
"That's it." Xiao Yun replied, "By the way, if you want to contact me next......
Before the words fell, Cheng Jinyang suddenly took out his gun and shot it in the neck.
The head of the synthesizer Xiao Yun fell to the ground, the indicator light at the temple was extinguished due to the power outage, and the vocal part that was originally located in the neck was completely damaged by the bullet.
Cheng Jinyang let the damaged synthesizer fall to the ground, and he quickly dialed a phone call to ask the girls and princess sisters who were still shopping outside to come back quickly.
After the call, he returned to the living room couch and sat down, letting out a long breath.
If what he expected was not bad, this time Wuchang should not only contact himself, but also include all the young children in the family.
The purpose is not to persuade them to surrender, but to shout to the family behind them.
After all, if you directly contact the patriarchs of various families, the patriarchs will inevitably cut off contact immediately in order to avoid suspicion. If you are an "ignorant" young child, it is understandable to make mistakes.
In this way, Wuchang's voice can be indirectly conveyed to the various families in Jiankang City.
Rao is like this, and Cheng Jinyang doesn't want to leave any handle on the other party. If you let the synthesizer Xiao Yun go back, and then the housekeeping company finds out what the problem is, and then calls up the list of customers who go out to serve......
Well, the memory chip in its head is fine anyway, it's just powered off and turned off. After Ah Zhi comes back, let her take the memory chip to investigate, and after confirming that there are no clues left, return Xiao Yun to the housekeeping company to repair.
Cheng Jinyang finished thinking about it, stood up and walked to the balcony, looking at the bright and flawless moonlight outside.
"Northern Expedition......" he sighed faintly.
