Chapter 454: Sun Chengzong, a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty
"Old back, Ma Shouying!"
Li Chaosheng said a name, and when he heard this name, Li Dingguo was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "If he can indeed reduce his hostility towards us." ”
Ma Shouying is currently the captain of the Lantian Special Brigade, who was formerly Li Chaomeng's deputy general, and has been taking refuge in Lantian for five or six years, five or six years is enough time for Lantian to transform the former commander of the rebel army, and now he is a qualified Lantian soldier, and what is even more gratifying is that he has settled down in Lantian and gave birth to a beautiful little daughter with a Han woman.
This is actually a taboo, and the return item is not to intermarry with the Han people, but Ma Shouying has changed this idea under the transformation of Lantian and tried to intermarry with the Han people, and he is still very happy.
In fact, this is also related to the tradition of the Hui, in fact, Hui men are not absolutely not allowed to intermarry with Han people, but women are absolutely not allowed to marry ethnic groups other than Huihui, this is absolute.
Therefore, Ma Shouying is only a taboo, not a clan rule.
And the reason why Li Chaosheng chose Ma Shouying as the political commissar of the Western Army is also very simple, in addition to his identity as Huihui, another important reason is that he is still a hero of Huihui.
Ma Shouying's reputation among the Hui Hui is very high, because he is the first warrior to stand up against the corrupt Ming Dynasty, and for the warriors, the Hui Hui will give the greatest respect.
This expedition with Ma Shouying is definitely half the effort.
And Li Dingguo's main goal is not to return, but to the Hetao.
The Yellow River is a good place, also known as the south of the Yangtze River, is a place that can produce good grain, especially flour, you must know that in the modern Hetao flour is very famous, the price is also much more expensive than the flour in other places, and Li Chaosheng feels that it must be more delicious to use the flour of the Hetao to make Shaanxi's noodles.
And now the land of the Hetao is under the management of Ningxia Wei, but Ningxia Wei is mixed, and ethnic minorities and Han people live together, if you want to take here, you have to find a way to sort out this place, and Li Chaosheng has already thought of a way to sort it out.
Take advantage of the Rogues.
The two largest forces in the rogue are Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, but there are still a few famous thieves who followed Wang Jiayin and others to revolt back then, such as the famous Touch to the Sky and the big thief Yang Liu.
Yang Liu can be regarded as a real thief, his qualifications are very old, when Wang Jiayin rebelled in Fugu, Yang Liu was the first person to follow Wang Jiayin, but it is a pity that this person has limited ability to be a mountain king, but it is still a lot worse to be an anti-king all the way.
Therefore, over the years, since Wang Jiayin, Wang Ziyong, Gao Yingxiang, and even Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, who are small characters, have become famous thieves.
However, Yang Liu hid in obscurity in the land of Ningxia, Gansu Province, lingering for a long time, touching the sky with the same mud that could not support the wall, and living in the border areas of Gansu and northern Shaanxi where no one paid attention.
Li Chaosheng was very dissatisfied with this, how could the northern Shaanxi border tolerate the survival of these thieves?
So yesterday Li Chaosheng ordered Shi Dalei's department, which was suppressing bandits in northern Shaanxi, to start squeezing the living space of the big thief Kou Yang Liu on the border of northern Shaanxi, with the purpose of driving these big thieves to Ningxia Wei.
Ningxia Wei has already turned into a pot of porridge, and driving Yang Liu over at this time is equivalent to pouring a bowl of water into a pot of boiling oil, which is not an instant fryer.
When the time comes, let Yang Liu and these guys fight with the officers and soldiers of Ningxia Wei first, and when they are almost done, when they are about to see the victory, Li Dingguo will take his soldiers and horses to kill them.
On the one hand, let Ma Shouying comfort the injured Huihui, on the other hand, let Li Dingguo exterminate Yang Liu, these thieves, and finally Shi Dalei, who was in charge of the introduction, would take the men and horses into Ningxiawei, so as to start the takeover of Ningxiawei.
Then the Lantian Society sent a militia to lead the Dali Chang and others appointed by Li Chaosheng to start governing Ningxia Wei, and if necessary, Li Chaosheng would also give policies to encourage Lantian people to enter Ningxia and settle down.
After the Lantian people lived in Ningxia for two generations, it would completely become the land of the Han people, and although Zhu Yuanzhang and other emperors had conquered Ningxia and other places, they only needed the right to rule and set up military management institutions such as Ningxia Wei.
If this is okay when the military is strong, it can also rule effectively, but if the overall strength of the empire declines and the military strength does not have an advantage, then this place will start to mutiny again.
And to encourage the Han people to settle down, it is to let the Han people and ethnic minorities live together, with the terrifying assimilation ability of the Han people, it will not take a few decades, this is the land of the Han people.
Since this has become the land of the Han Chinese, there will be no more national uprisings, which is very easy to do.
This is Li Chaosheng's plan to drive the tiger and devour the wolf, let the unsuccessful rogues stir up the situation, and finally clean up the mess with his own army in Lantian, and finally obtain the last right to rule this land.
In the past, the locals would not hate Lantian at this time, because it was Yang Liu, the thieves who destroyed them, but Lantian appeared as a savior, and then this land would not have unnecessary estrangement because of hatred.
This is Lantian's consistent style of play, driving the tiger and devouring the wolf.
Li Chaosheng told Li Dingguo about his plan, Li Dingguo twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard this, looked at Li Chaosheng and said: "My father-in-law Zhang Xianzhong, as well as Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, are they like Yang Liu in your eyes, but they are the chess pieces in your hands to drive the tiger and the wolf?" ”
Li Chaosheng heard this, looked at Li Dingguo and smiled: "What do you think?" ”
Li Dingguo smiled bitterly, he remembered many times when they were very weak in fighting with the imperial court, as long as Lantian wanted to make a move, he would definitely be able to exterminate them, but Lantian suppressed it and did not make a move, and he was still laughing at others at the time, Lantian was a scheming person, at this time, if he didn't kill himself, when he and others were trapped and ascended to heaven, Lantian regretted it was too late.
Now that I think about how stupid I am, can't Lantian destroy himself? In fact, people just use you as a tool, and they and others burn and loot in front to attract hatred, but Lantian appears as a savior and begins to save and recover the places that he and others have captured, so as to gain the hearts of the people.
In this way, these powerful so-called rogues are fighting one place and losing one land, while Lantian did not fight in the back, but he harvested a large piece of land, and easily gained control of this land.
Thinking of this, Li Dingguo looked at Li Chaosheng and broke out in a cold sweat, if he wasn't a Lantian person now, I am afraid that he would be used by Li Chaosheng to death, and the most terrible thing is that even if he sees through Lantian's tricks, it is useless, the foundation of the Liukou has been deviated, and it is impossible for them to set up camp in one place from the bones, and fight steadily.
Therefore, even if you see through Li Chaosheng and use himself again, the Liukou will not be able to break free from this big net that is buckled on them, unless you go back and clean up Lantian, it turns out that you can't beat Lantian County.
Either you can first roll the snowball of Liukou to infinity, so big that Lantian can't eat it in one bite, and finally eat Lantian in turn, but this possibility, according to the development trend of Lantian, is very small, so small that Li Dingguo feels that it is impossible to succeed.
Drive the tiger and devour the wolf, this is the naked Yang conspiracy, the conspiracy can be pierced, but the Yang conspiracy can't be done at all, even if you understand it, but you have fallen into the quagmire and can't extricate yourself, you can only follow the tide and fall deeper and deeper.
Thinking of this, Li Dingguo looked at Li Chaosheng, who looked harmless to humans and animals, and even looked very kind, this is the biggest demon king of the Ming Dynasty, what Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng, and even Emperor Chongzhen sitting in the capital are just a chess piece on his chessboard.
After Li Chaosheng finished talking about his plan, he stretched his waist quite easily and said, "Dingguo, you are welcome to join Lantian County again." ”
Li Chaosheng stretched out his hand, Li Dingguo was stunned, he didn't understand what Li Chaosheng meant, and then Wang Jiadong said on the side: "Shake hands, Mr. said." ”
Hearing this, Li Dingguo reacted, stretched out his hand and shook Li Chaosheng, and when the two hands touched, Li Dingguo was stunned, Li Chaosheng's hand was much more powerful than he imagined.
Li Chaosheng obviously saw Li Dingguo's surprise, and his arm couldn't help but add some strength, Li Dingguo was stunned for a moment, and then added strength, and the next moment the two of them slowly competed.
After a long time, Li Dingguo found that his strength was about to increase to the maximum, but Li Chaosheng had a blank face, and he didn't see any hard work, Li Dingguo was secretly shocked in his heart, this Li Chaosheng has so much strength.
And Li Chaosheng was also a little surprised at this time, Li Dingguo's strength was not small.
At this time, Li Chaosheng let go of his hand and said: "Okay, you and Wang Jiadong can go down, by the way, Guzi, take Head Li and Deputy Head Wang to see their new home and their land." ”
"Huh?"
Li Dingguo and Wang Jiadong looked at Gu Zi, and Gu Zi smiled at this time: "According to Lantian military regulations, all cadres above the platoon level in the army, Lantian will give them a house, you are a regiment-level cadre, and Commander Li can divide five large tile houses, and give 30 acres of self-cultivated land."
"Deputy Head Wang can be divided into four big tile houses, and with twenty-five acres of self-cultivated fields, when you came, I have already helped you see your houses and fields, it is two large tile houses next to each other in the east of Languan Town, not far away is your cultivated land, I went to take a look, that land is very fertile, if you cultivate well, there will definitely be a good harvest next year."
Li Dingguo heard this and said: "Houses and fields, I am about to go out to fight, how can I have time to manage houses and fields?" ”
Hearing this, Gu Zi smiled and said: "It's okay, when you go out to fight, you can contract the land to the nearby big grain growers, just take the cash directly, or you can pay someone to help you take care of it, and when the grain is finished in the autumn, you can harvest the grain of a land." ”
"Oh, that's convenient."
Li Dingguo said, Wang Jiadong couldn't wait at this time, looked at Li Dingguo and said: "Okay, that's almost it, I want to go and see my land, if it's really fertile, maybe I will be able to marry a daughter-in-law next year." ”
Hearing this, Li Dingguo said helplessly: "Are you really ready to farm?" ”
Wang Jiadong heard this and said: "I was originally a farmer, I was just forced to fight helplessly, and now I have land and don't plant, you are stupid to me." ”
Li Dingguo heard this and said: "You are not stupid, then tomorrow you will go to the Daogouyu camp to select people, and I will go myself?" ”
Wang Jiadong thought for a while and said, "Forget it, let's go together, you say that I am not interesting enough." ”
The two of them talked about making trouble and went out, and Li Chaosheng stretched out when he saw this: "Let's go, go back to the county office, it's a matter of mind, and then let's wait to see the situation in the capital." ”
"Kill! Follow the old man to kill the enemy and serve the country! ”
On Gaoyang City, a seventy-year-old man, holding a sharp sword, roared with a sword to kill a Tartar who climbed the ladder, and behind him a group of people who did not wear official clothes and seemed to be family servants were frantically shooting arrows under the city gate.
At this time, there was a Tartar climbed up from the ladder, the old man held a sword and cut down, I didn't expect this Tartar to be really brave, wielding a waist knife to block the old man's sword, followed by a tiger pounce rushed up, waved the waist knife in his hand and slashed at the old man, the old man is old, after a vicious battle just now, he was already out of breath, and then saw a knife crackling, and there was no strength to block it.
Seeing that the waist knife of the Tartar was about to be cut on the old man's body, at this moment, a young man covered in blood rushed up and slashed at the Tartar with the knife in his hand.
The situation became extremely passive again, the old man wanted to step forward to help at this time, but at this time another Tartar came up from the ladder, the young man saw this, his blood surged, roared, and he pounced directly on the Tartar, the Tartar did not expect the young man to be so bloody, he was held by the waist and stood unsteadily, and was pushed backwards.
Immediately after the two of them retreated directly to the bottom of the city wall, the next moment the two fell directly off the city wall, and pushed all the tartars and ladders that had just climbed up by the way, followed by the three people fell directly from the city wall more than ten meters high.
"Yu'er!"
Seeing this, the old man's eyes were cracked, he shouted angrily, and the old tears in his eyes were crossed, the young man was his third grandson, only eighteen years old this year, thinking of this, the old man looked up to the sky and roared: "Jiannu, the old man and you will not die, the husband will serve the country today, kill!" ”
The old man roared angrily, fighting with the Tartars again, he was Sun Chengzong, the minister of the Ming Dynasty, the teacher of the Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Apocalypse, the governor of Jiliao, presided over the construction of the Ningjin defense line, Yuan Chonghuan and Mao Wenlong's old boss, and also the loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty.
It's a pity that such a hard-working minister was impeached by the middle of the court and was idle at home, and not long ago, the Tartars besieging the capital suddenly bypassed BJ City, divided their troops to Zhuozhou, went south to North Zhili, all the way to Kefu City, Wei County, and approached Gaoyang City.
And Gaoyang City is the hermitage of the boss Sun Chengzong, and listening to Jiannu's attack, the boss's five sons, six grandsons, two grandnephews, and a group of servants went to the city to help in the battle, so there was this scene on the city wall.
