Chapter 264 One Year

In the blink of an eye, it was sixty-one years of the Great Liang calendar.

This is also the eleventh year of Hongzhi, and in the previous year, many major events took place.

Among them, there are two things that attract the attention of people all over the world!

This first thing is the situation of the northern Xinjiang grassland, this generation of Tianjiao Maodun's descendant Timur first commanded the grassland alliance to attack the Liang, and directly took away Jiayuguan.

It was only later that he was blocked by the general Zhou Wu outside Beiliang City, blocking Temur's invasion of Daliang, and I thought that this was the end.

But then there was a piece of news that attracted the attention of everyone in the world - that is, the unification of the grassland!

Not a union, but a unity!

This is the second unification in the history of the steppe, the previous time it was Maudun, and this time it was Timur, a descendant of Maudun!

Future generations will always remember that in the sixty-first year of the Great Liang, the Han of the Temur tribe unified the grassland, known as Mude Yi Khan, and the grassland language means the eternal Han of the grassland!

In the face of the unified northern Xinjiang grassland, Daliang also had to attach great importance to it, and directly left the general Zhou Wu in Beiliangcheng in northern Xinjiang, and then levied 100,000 new troops to go to Beiliangcheng.

At this time, there were 300,000 soldiers in Beiliang City, together with dozens of surrounding cities, forming a line of defense, forming an iron wall, carefully vigilant against the grassland, and always ready to face the invasion of the grassland.

The second thing was the flood in the south.

A huge flood disaster directly displaced millions of people, and even if Liang has a deep background and continues to send officials to the south for disaster relief, it is only a drop in the bucket.

In such a situation, after that, there was a rebellion of Shang Fu, the remnants of the previous dynasty, who claimed to be the grandson of the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Although Zhang Yuan raised a butcher's knife against the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty and cut off a lot of the royal blood of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were also survivors, such as Shang Fu's father Shang Liang, the eleventh son of the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

At that time, Shang Liang was still in infancy, and in order to escape the bloody case of the palace, he was taken out of the palace by some old and young people, and then incognito, secretly accumulating strength.

However, seeing that Daliang is getting stronger and stronger, it is obviously hopeless to restore the country, so he pins his hope on his son.

Shang Fu - this compound word is the meaning of recovering the country!

Shang Fu has inherited his father's wishes since he was a child, constantly recruiting customers, forming forces, and has become a wealthy gentleman in the local area.

With the support of some old and young people in the past, Shang Fu has accumulated a lot of strength over the years, originally thinking of sitting and watching the situation in the world, if the beam is still calm and the national strength is strong, it is to continue to wait for the opportunity to pass on the will of the restoration to the younger generations!

This is endless!

But a flood suddenly made Shang Fu see the opportunity!

Millions of displaced people, this is what he can use!

Shang Fu decisively took the strength accumulated for many years, directly captured a county seat, and then recruited displaced people to act as a soldier.

Shangfu provided food and clothing, which is undoubtedly a chance to survive for these displaced people, since they can survive, what is the point of rebellion?

If you don't rebel, your family will starve to death!

On the one hand, he is full to live, and on the other hand, he is starving!

At this time, can we expect these displaced people to have any patriotism?

People who have never experienced hunger will never know that they are hungry, even if it is not without cannibalism.

Compared with such a human tragedy, the price of rebellion is undoubtedly much lighter.

Rebellion is nothing but death after all, and this is the worst outcome.

But it's also possible that you don't have to die, and you can still get rich!

The lighter of the two is chosen.

So these displaced people went to apply one after another.

Relying on these homeless people, Shang Fu captured several counties again, and used these counties as a foundation to start his own name Shang Tianzi, which means that he officially began to recruit troops!

In just a few months, there were tens of thousands of troops, and tens of thousands of troops were coerced by hundreds of thousands of displaced people, directly disrupting the surrounding counties.

Relying on the foundation of several places, coupled with the smooth news at the beginning of the imperial army, Shang Fu also got the refuge of many people who claimed to be with lofty ideals for a while.

Some of the big families in the south are also willing to send a side line of disciples to take refuge, and this side line is all drawn out of the clan, which also makes the court unable to find something to say.

The family never puts their eggs in one basket, and since Shangfu has shown a certain potential, it is naturally worth their investment.

There were a lot of capable people under his command, and there were more clans to enhance their reputation, and for a while, the name of Shang Tianzi suddenly spread among the displaced people in the south.

Panwang created the world, and the great water destroyed the world.

The water is all over the south, the beginning of the extinction.

The Son of Heaven, the Savior of the World!

The three folk songs are also spread all over the world, and this ballad has some fantasy colors, but it is just right to have this southern flood verification!

For a time, countless fools and fools in the south were some superstitious Shang Tianzi, even if they were not homeless, they put a Shang Tianzi altar at home, hoping to be blessed and not let the flood continue to rage.

Moreover, although the imperial court reacted, it was affected by the terrain flood, so it was not easy to send a large army to exterminate it.

Fire and water are ruthless, even a large army can't stop the flood, in case the first army is unlucky, or the enemy army is cunning, and the situation of flooding the seventh army appears, wouldn't it be a big loss?

Moreover, under the flood, it is also difficult to march, and it is difficult to go to suppress it in time.

The floods in the south have not been dealt with, and the situation in the north is tense.

Faced with such a situation, the imperial court could only send tens of thousands of troops under the leadership of a veteran general to suppress it.

……

The veteran's difficult march avoided the flood and reached the battlefield that should have been suppressed, but seeing the great strength on the opposite side, forced suppression could only be in vain.

In the end, he is a veteran, and he is also skilled in the art of war, and he is even more steady, since he knows that he cannot suppress it.

Try to stop the other party's mess speed and prevent the other party from pooping.

When the flood is dealt with, the imperial court has really freed up its hands and feet, and it can completely solve this rebellion.

The veteran also gave a decisive order and assigned soldiers to the surrounding counties.

In the city, with the cooperation of the people in the city, with the help of the surrounding cities, it is enough to stop these displaced people.

Don't ask for the results of the battle, just want to be able to hold the city steadily!

This is a steady policy, but in the short term, it has blocked the speed of Shangfu's expansion of strength.

But after discovering that his strength was expanding slowly, Shang Fu was not a fool, and after knowing the other party's thoughts, he directly shifted the direction of expanding his strength.

Is it not worth it to know that there is a wall in front of you, and to hit a bag!

Directly changed direction and continued to start savage expansion!

At the same time, Shang Fu is not a simple character, and he also cheated the veteran before leaving!

Send people to various places to publicize this veteran's fear of war!

even said that the veteran wanted to surrender, and he kept eyebrowning with Shang Fu.

The fact that the veteran does not attack Shang Fu's army is proof of this!

He had a good idea, and wanted to see the scene of suspicion between the monarchs and ministers of the Great Liang, if this Emperor Hongzhi of the Great Liang really recruited this veteran back, he would temporarily change the general.

It's just that this time and again, the time delayed is too worth it in Shang Fu's opinion.

Moreover, if the new general sent later dared to take the initiative to fight, he would bring about his own destruction, and naturally let him get his wish.

If he could swallow this army of the imperial court, his reputation in the south would not only be even greater.

It can also use the power of the power to completely become bigger in the south!

The name Shang Tianzi is a little more real!

……

However, at this time, in the capital of Great Liang, after Emperor Hongzhi of Great Liang heard the news, he only smiled slightly: "The traitor is still the lonely king, is he a mediocre king?" The lonely king is not his grandfather, Emperor Da Zhou, but he was forced to give up to Zhang Yuan directly because of his mediocrity, and he even drank poisonous wine! ”

"This Shangfu child is too underestimated to be the lonely king! Hahaha! ”

Emperor Hongzhi is not wise and martial, but he is also a qualified king, and his steady development over the years is definitely due to his contributions.

The reason why he sent the veteran was because he liked the veteran's steadiness.

He understood that it was completely unrealistic for tens of thousands of troops to go to the flood to suppress an army of hundreds of thousands of displaced people.

Even if they are homeless, they have not undergone rigorous training, and their combat effectiveness is not as good as that of a real army, but there are more ants that can bite an elephant to death.

What's more, the comparison between hundreds of thousands of displaced people and tens of thousands of troops?

Therefore, for this army, Emperor Hongzhi's idea has always been to delay the speed of the expansion of the strength of the Shang Fu as much as possible, of course, if he can really defeat the strong with the weak, he will not object!

Defeating the strong with the weak, the veteran did not do it, but delayed Shangfu to expand its power and prevent Shangfu from becoming bigger.

This is something that the veteran has done well!

Although the outside world said that the veteran was afraid of war, Emperor Hongzhi could see that the pace of Shangfu's expansion had not only slowed down in the past few months, but also directly changed the direction of expansion.

It can be said that the veteran directly forced Shang Fu to turn his head!

Of course, after turning the head, although the expansion rate of Shangfu will rise.

But tens of thousands of troops can shelter one side, can they ask for more?

Moreover, these tens of thousands of troops went to the south, which can be said to be a lone army, as long as the flood is not solved, it will always be a lone army!

is a lone army, how can he change generals before the battle?

Even if he Hongzhi Emperor Liang Ye is mediocre, he also knows the taboo of soldiers!

is also a message from the outside world, Emperor Hongzhi just smiled and didn't speak!

Not only will he not be affected by the outside world's messages, but he wants to shade the children and grandchildren of this veteran, and even the wife of the veteran is promoted to the second grade of the wife because of his virtue and virtue.

As for this old Jiang's hand, there is an extra Shang Fang sword at this time!

It shows Emperor Hongzhi's trust in this veteran, as for the merits of this veteran, it can only be rewarded for meritorious deeds after returning to Beijing!

After the veteran got this merchant sword, he could only say that he was emotional, and he felt the emperor's grace!

Continue to guard a side in the South!

……

Sixty-one years of the Liang calendar, this year of turbulence, this is the beginning of everything.

The future figures have begun to appear!

At this time, Ren Taixu was still lurking in Anlu County, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

Of course, if he hadn't met someone from the Cangsheng Sect, this might have nothing to do with him in the first place!

During the year, he did only two things, one was to prepare for the trial, and the second was to buy hundreds of acres of land next to the attic in the countryside.

Naturally, he doesn't have so much money, but his father is the third person in Anlu's officialdom, and with power, he won't be short of money.

The right not to use, expired and invalid, this sentence is never an empty word!

Of course, he also had the support of his father and grandfather.

Because their clan has only risen for three generations, and the good background is too far behind.

The meritocracy of these three generations is the current good situation, and their expectations are currently pinned on Ren Taixu, hoping that Ren Taixu can lead them to become a real family.

But whether Ren Taixu can do it or not, it will not affect them to buy a family business, and the two do not conflict.

So if Ren Taixu can't take them to become a real family, they can only become a local wealthy family and a real scholarly family only after they have their own family business in the local area!

The value of the land will not be depreciated, even if the descendants are not filial, it is still a foundation that can be used to survive.

Of course, if Ren Taixu can become a member of the dynasty, staying in Anlu will not be able to meet the political needs of the younger generations, and they may move to the capital.

But even if they move to the capital, they need an ancestral land that they can get their hands on!

Therefore, a piece of land is very important!

A piece of land in a remote small county town is pinned on the expectations of two generations of Ren Taixu and his father!

As the third generation, Ren Taixu has a heavy responsibility at this time!

Ren Taixu knew that he had the expectations of his fathers, and if he hadn't come into contact with the Cangsheng Sect in the past, his ambition would not be here, and he might have failed to live up to this expectation.

But maybe it was because Sai Weng lost his horse and knew whether he was blessed, although the result of coming into contact with the Cangsheng Sect was not too satisfying to Ren Taixu, but his future path at least did not conflict with the expectations of his father!

He will even truly lead the Ren clan to become the most noble clan in the world!

With land, there is no need for Ren Taixu to urge, but there is an old lady Ren who began to recruit tenant farmers, and these tenant farmers helped Ren Taixu's family cultivate the land.

After a few generations, the Ren family really became the landlord class, and some of the descendants of these tenant farmers also became the sons of the Ren family, and they were the most trustworthy servants!

Ren Taixu wanted to buy this land, naturally he didn't want to develop secretly farming, he relied on farming to develop slowly, but in fact it was a stable way.

It's very in line with Ren Taixu's temperament!

It's just that there is not much time left for Ren Taixu, but it is not enough to develop slowly.

Now one south and one north, they are already two influential figures, ten years, if Ren Taixu can't do it quickly, he can only become a loser under others!

His purpose is twofold, one is to make his parents feel at ease, and the second is to recruit a few loyal customers and retinues while purchasing this family business!

He always has to have a few cronies under him, can he still believe in all the people of the Cangsheng Sect?
