Chapter 54: Shandong Doesn't Fall!
Zhu Yiyuan led the crowd to worship the portrait of Zhu Yuanzhang, and then he got up, first walked to Tan Qiye's side, and Qiye also stood up, "Childe, have orders?" ”
"Well, I want to ask you, worship Emperor Taizu, but willingly?"
The Seventh Master was stunned, and immediately said: "Willingly, Emperor Taizu is a hero and hero, and he should be worshipped." ”
Zhu Yiyuan looked at Zhao Yingyuan in the crowd again and asked, "General Zhao, you hate the Ming Dynasty and let you worship Emperor Taizu, do you have any complaints?" ”
"Nope!" Zhao Yingyuan said simply: "I know, Emperor Taizu cherishes the people and punishes corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and he is never soft." It's just that the children and grandchildren are unscrupulous and mediocre, which makes the world chaotic and the people are not happy. What's more, Emperor Taizu has been dead for more than 200 years, and I am willing to worship him. ”
Zhu Yiyuan looked at Zhao Shizhe again, and without him asking, Zhao Shizhe said directly: "Emperor Taizu's body is clothed, carrying a three-foot long sword, commanding the army of bears and tigers, driving Dayuan in the north, and opening a foundation." As a Ming minister, he hated that Emperor Taizu could not be reborn and save Li Min's life from fire and water. ”
Zhu Yiyuan nodded again and again, and then set his eyes on the eight words "expelling Hu Lu and restoring China".
"Fellow villagers, soldiers, are you willing to drive away the Qing court and restore the Han family's clothes?"
"Yes! Willing! In the crowd, the sound of mountains and tsunamis erupted, and the enthusiastic response made Zhu Yiyuan shake up, and he showed a pleased smile.
"I just consulted a few people, including ordinary people, old generals, and celebrities...... The big guys all think that Emperor Taizu can worship Emperor Taizu, and Emperor Taizu is right. Then we should refer to the actions of Emperor Taizu and embark on a successful road to resist the Qing Dynasty. ”
"Externally, we want to expel the Qing court and restore the Chinese clothes. Internally, we must learn from Emperor Taizu, eliminate greed in Juntian, be close to the people and love the people, and think of the common people. In this way, why worry about big things? ”
When Zhu Yiyuan said this, everyone present, regardless of their background, all nodded in agreement.
The decadence just now has also been swept away.
For Zhu Yiyuan, the biggest problem is that the composition of his subordinates is too complicated...... There are people in the forest, ordinary people, the original Chuang Wang Yijun, and even some gentry who have a bright heart and hate the Qing court.
Although these people have come together temporarily, they are full of internal contradictions, and they have a deep relationship with each other. For example, the Hongguang Dynasty is a hodgepodge of chaos, although it supports a shelf, but it has no combat effectiveness, and it collapses at the first touch, Shi Kefa defended Yangzhou, and collapsed in less than a day.
On the contrary, 100,000 soldiers and civilians in Jiangyin, with one heart and one mind, persevered for 81 days.
Only when all of us are united can we burst out with 10,000 times more combat power.
It's just that working together is easier said than done.
How to knead the power of a plate of loose sand together is definitely not an easy task, in addition to Juntian, it also needs a symbol that can concretely unite people's hearts.
This is also a question that Zhu Yiyuan pondered for a long time in the Pichang Temple, and finally he chose Zhu Yuanzhang.
The only hero who has won the world from south to north.
Restore the holy monarch of the Han family rivers and mountains.
A good emperor who cherishes the people and eats well.
The most important thing is that all forces are now acceptable to all forces.
The people like Taizu's love for the people and diligence, restraining the arrogant, and severely punishing corrupt officials. At this juncture, some ambitious scholars also hope to follow the example of Taizu, expel Hulu, restore the mountains and rivers of the Han family, and leave a name in history.
All in all, for a while, there is really no more suitable than Zhu Yuanzhang.
After Zhu Yiyuan finished talking to everyone, he immediately ordered again, asking Xintai, Zichuan, and everyone to gather in Laiwu to discuss the most important matter.
Song Lian, Song Jicheng, Huang Pei, and even Yu Dayou, as well as dozens of gentry and ordinary villagers, all came.
On the side of Zichuan, the old man and the old man, Pang Qing, Zhang Lin, and many villagers and elders at the beginning of the establishment also crossed the original mountain and came to Laiwu one after another.
In addition, there are also uncle Ye Tinglan, wealthy businessman Pu Pan, old man Jiang Qi, and the people of Laiwu, including Grandma Han, all of whom were invited over.
There are hundreds of people, and they can't sit in the lobby of Laiwu.
Zhu Yiyuan chose to hold a meeting in the courtyard, and everyone sat on the ground, full of people.
The big guy looked at Zhu Yiyuan, wanting to hear what he had to say, but suddenly, he found that there was an extra portrait behind Zhu Yiyuan.
On both sides of the portrait, there are four words each, "Expelling Hulu and restoring China".
Father Zhu blinked his eyes, the portrait is Emperor Taizu, and the eight characters are from the Central Plains.
This kid is going to do something!
Song Lian, Song Jicheng, and Zhao Shizhe, who read poetry and books to the fullest, were also dumbfounded when they saw this scene, and their hearts were pounding, as for the gentry and businessmen present, they frowned slightly and were uneasy.
On the contrary, it is those ordinary people who are the most calm, especially Grandma Han, she firmly believes that Zhu Yiyuan is a good person, no matter what, such a good person will not harm the people.
She can't be wrong with her old eyes.
Waiting for everyone to sit down and calm down, Zhu Yiyuan slowly spoke, "The news just now, not long ago, Jiangyin City, which had lasted for eighty-one days, fell, and almost all of the 100,000 soldiers and civilians were killed, and the whole city was full of corpses, and the streets were full of blood and bones. ”
Zhu Yiyuan's face was solemn, "The overall situation of resisting the Qing Dynasty has reached the most critical moment, the mountains and rivers are broken, and Shenzhou is in decline." There are still many anti-Qing forces in the south, and Emperor Longwu is still in Fujian. But in my judgment, it will be difficult for them to defeat the Qing army and return to their homeland in the Northern Expedition. ”
"We can only rely on ourselves, rely on our strength, to defeat the powerful Qing court. Needless to say, our situation is very critical and there is a risk of failure at any time. But I always believe that we will win, because we are doing the right thing, what is in line with the will of the people, and what is going to win the support of the people. ”
In the previous years, everyone's heart was falling, but the last few sentences suddenly lifted their hearts.
Zhu Yiyuan turned his head to look at the people under him and asked the big guy to introduce the situation.
The first one to stand up was Zhang Lin, "Zhu Gongzi, these days, we have implemented Juntian in Zichuan County, and we have allowed more than a dozen villages, more than 2,000 households, and more than 10,000 people to get land. More than 1,000 soldiers and horses were raised, and 3,000 stone of grain were accumulated. The most important thing is that we have settled tens of thousands of displaced people, who are generally from Anqiu and other places, and if they are allowed to attack Gaoyuan and other places, the Shandong Righteous Army will only suffer greater losses. At present, there are still 3,000 displaced people who are still in Zichuan, and the remaining 7,000 people have arrived in Laiwu and other places one after another, and less than 1 percent of them died on the road. The virtue of the living people of the son is recreated. ”
After Zhang Xiucai finished speaking, the cell leader Jiang Qi stood up again, "Indeed, the autumn harvest in Laiwu has been completed at present, and the reason why it can be so fast is mainly because the displaced people from Zichuan act as laborers to assist the people of Laiwu, harvest wheat, threshing and returning to the warehouse." Next, the Juntian of Laiwu has begun to be implemented, and the people of Dawen Village and other places have already obtained their own land. The people had food at home and land deeds in their hands, and they enthusiastically joined the army, recruiting 1,500 elite soldiers, more than 3,000 militiamen, and the rest of the people were strong and strong, and there were thousands of people. ”
After these two people finished speaking, it was Song Lian's turn, and he also took stock of the situation in Xintai, "Due to the boycott of Confucius's land rent, now the people of Xintai also have food, and some villages have begun to equalize the fields, and the people who are willing to serve in the army to protect the fields also exceed 2,000 people." ”
After a preliminary understanding of the situation in the three counties, everyone present was shocked, and it seemed that the situation was indeed very good.
Zhu Yiyuan concluded: "We have just defeated a Qing army of 3,000 people, captured the general soldiers and horses, it is this brute who captured Emperor Hongguang and dedicated it to the Qing court, and at this time, he has become our prisoner." And this incident also proves that the Qing court is not invincible, we can win! ”
Zhu Yiyuan said loudly: "So I think that at the juncture when Jiangyin is lost and the great cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty is frustrated, we Shandong fathers and elders need to come forward!" Raise the banner of expelling Hulu and restoring China. ”
"Yes, there is! The establishment of the Shandong Capital Division of China, immediately reorganized the people, consolidated the territory, and sought opportunities to attack the Qing court, as well as the lackeys of the Qing court, Shandong is the hometown of Chinese etiquette and the home of sages. We...... No drop! "Zhu Yiyuan cut the railway.
