Chapter 238: Gathering the Army's Heart

The dust has settled.

The king of Han went to Leping as he wished, and in that place, began his life as a vassal king.

In order to prevent him from having any bad intentions, the old man deliberately placed many soldiers around him to calm his mind.

Three days passed quickly.

In the past three days, when I heard that Zhu's case leader had been sent to prison, Xia Yujue, the granddaughter of Xia Yuanji, hurriedly came and wanted to visit him in prison.

Ji Gang remembered that his grandfather was a scholar, so he let her in to deliver food to Zhu Chen.

But when delivering food, it was inevitable to see the little red dress beside him.

Seeing that the two were locked up together, Xia Yujue had no idea of fencing, but when she looked at the little red dress with weak eyes, she was a little more grateful.

"Thank you sister for saving Brother Zhu, otherwise I will never see him again in the future."

This is sincere, because she heard that Little Red Dress did not hesitate to fake the holy decree in order to save Brother Zhu, such sincerity is worthy of her admiration.

Shen Qingqiu saw that she didn't make a move like Hu Shanxiang, and her expression was much softer: "Thank you sister for sending the meal." ”

"You're welcome." Xia Yujue raised a gentle smile.

When he is not attacking Xia Yujue, Xia Yujue feels like a spring breeze, but if someone attacks Xia Yujue, Xia Yujue's fencing skills will not be weak.

The little red dress had a good impression of her, and she gave a gift.

Xia Yujue smiled and asked, "What does my sister want to eat then?" My sister brought it in for you. ”

After some conversation, the relationship between the two sisters was determined.

In the future, when Hu Shanxiang meets these two sisters again, he is afraid that he will be defeated.

And in the past three days, it was not only Xia Yujue who came to see Zhu Chen, but also Xie Jin.

"Although the King of Han is leaving, there is still a huge threat to you."

"He has a huge amount of power in the Beijing camp, you have to find a way to win over the hearts of the army and gradually weaken his power, otherwise he will swallow you one day sooner or later."

Xie Jin's words made Zhu Chen understand that King Han would not let him go easily.

Although he went to Leping now, once he found an opportunity, he would immediately fight back, the teacher was right, he must take advantage of this to gather a wave of military hearts!

So, before Zhu Chen left the edict, his mind was full of such thoughts.

It's a pity that many generals in the Beijing camp have a lifelong friendship with the King of Han, and it is so difficult to shake it.

But if you want to weaken the power of the Han kings, you must shake them!

After leaving the prison, Zhu Chen was walking on the street when he suddenly heard a noise around him.

I saw a disabled middle-aged man missing a leg and arguing with a small vegetable vendor.

"Didn't you pay two articles yesterday? Why has it risen so much today? ”

"Is salmon expensive? Don't eat it if it's expensive, you're disabled, and it's a waste of food to eat, so it's better to leave it for others to eat. ”

As soon as these words came out, the disabled middle-aged man was so angry that his face turned red.

He looked at the little vegetable vendor, his neck was red: "My leg is for the country's cripples, in the third year of Yongle, Wara captured Liaodong, I killed two foreign enemies in the defense battle, and protected a whole village!" ”

His words are already revealing who he once was.

He is a soldier before the Ming Dynasty, and he once fought for the country!

"It doesn't matter who you protect, it's not me who protects, hurry up, dead lame." The greengrocer scolded impatiently.

The disabled middle-aged man couldn't help but have red eyes, and he took out a medal of honor in his arms, as if he was a child.

"If you don't keep this country, don't keep it."

"Once upon a time, I thought it was my glory, but now it has become an excuse for others to laugh at me."

"I fought for the country, and I couldn't rest day and night, but I didn't want to be treated like this after I became disabled."

threw the medal of glory on the ground, and the only remaining leg of the disabled middle-aged man stepped on the medal fiercely.

Disappointed.

Extreme disappointment.

This scene was fully watched by Zhu Chen, and the proudest thing was trampled underfoot, which means that this disabled soldier is really disappointed in Daming.

If the soldiers are disappointed, then the country will have no one to protect it.

"Sanwen? I'll give it to you. Zhu Chen bought a handful of vegetables from the vegetable vendor.

Then he walked up to the disabled soldier and said with a smile: "I can't finish this dish, so I'll give it to you." ”

The disabled soldier raised his head, glanced at Zhu Chen, and shook his head slightly: "Thank you, no." ”

He didn't want to be fed.

Ming soldiers, you must have backbone, even if it is a disabled soldier!

Then he was leaving.

Zhu Chen's face changed, and he stepped forward and asked again: "Disabled soldiers, Daming will give corresponding subsidies and positions, why can't you even afford to buy food for three cents?" ”

The current emperor is the Yongle Emperor, and he treats the soldiers very well, but why this happens, Zhu Chen really can't figure it out.

The disabled soldier turned his head and glanced at Zhu Chen: "I thought the same as you back then, so I fought for the country, and in the end I starved my mother and my wife to death." ”

As soon as these words came out, seeing his hateful eyes again, Zhu Chen instantly understood.

"Who's in the way?" Zhu Chen said in a deep voice.

The disabled soldier looked at him: "I hate Daming, I hate this country, give me another chance, I won't protect it again." ”

"I have been on the border for eight years and have repelled countless foreign enemies, but the people of this country have forgotten my ......"

Zhu Chen was shocked.

Why did he say so decisively?

Obviously, in addition to scholars, soldiers are the most patriotic, but why would they say such things?

There is only one possibility!

Oppressed, deeply oppressed, he dedicated everything to Daming, but Daming didn't give him the most basic.

In Zhu Chen's heart, there were suddenly mixed tastes.

I took this opportunity to win over the hearts of the army and weaken the power of the Han King.

But at the same time, Zhu Chen is more worried that if the protection measures for soldiers after they are disabled are not in place, who will work hard for Daming?

At that time, the country will be ruined.

"How many more of these people do you have? Can you show me there? ”

Zhu Chen took a deep breath: "If there is another reason inside, I will care!" ”

"I'm the head of the Zhu case."

Zhu's case!

These three words undoubtedly gave a great shock to the middle-aged with disabilities.

His eyes suddenly turned red: "Case Chief Zhu, are you really Case Chief Zhu?" ”

"Is it the head of the Zhu case who changed the world for Hangzhou and sued the people of Hangzhou?"

Zhu Chen smiled: "Yes." ”

The disabled soldier didn't say a word, immediately threw away his crutches, and knelt down directly: "Case Chief Zhu, please help us!" ”

When he raised his head again, his eyes were filled with endless tears across his face.

Zhu Chen said in a deep voice: "Go!" Take me there. ”

The disabled soldier didn't say a word, picked up his crutches, and quickly took Zhu Chen to the slum area of Yingtianfu.

There, there are large resettlement houses.

Originally, Daming built houses for the disabled soldiers, but in front of Zhu Chen, there were only dilapidated thatched huts.

Zhu Chen casually walked into a thatched house, and there were three or four people living in it, there was no bed, just a simple straw mat.

Without exception, all of them are disabled soldiers!

"You can check out not only this one, but all of them!" After that, Liu Dahu took Zhu Chen and knocked on another thatched house.

Without exception, it is just as desolate.

Some of them have broken legs, some have lost their hands, and some have broken eyes, all of them are heroes who fought for the country back then!

But now, it has come to this point.

The drama on the banks of the Qinhuai River is glamorous, and no one cares about the anti-enemy martyrs in the slums.

It's no wonder that they are cold to this country.

It is better not to defend such a country!

Zhu Chen scolded angrily: "Beast things." ”
