When Zhu Ming received the news from Pingli County, he was extremely angry.

He was not only angry that Yang Anshi disobeyed the order, but also found it unbearable for Zhang Jin to kill the deputy general.

What does Zhang Jin mean, Zhu Ming knows very well, there are nothing more than four purposes-

First, show loyalty to Zhu Ming, show that he is not greedy for money, and he will do whatever Zhu Ming says.

Second, take the opportunity to establish authority and completely control the newly recruited troops under his command.

Third, rectify military discipline and make an example of monkeys and chickens.

Fourth, calm the hearts of the people and demonstrate benevolence and righteousness.

Zhu Ming called Guan Sheng: "You go to Pingli County to be a deputy general, and on behalf of me, I personally reward the soldiers and reward every soldier." As for Zhang Jin, he was meritorious in capturing the county seat and restraining the troops, and he was named Baoyilang and the commander of the Fifth Army of Jinzhou. ”

The troops were created in a hastily manner, temporarily organized and trained, and there was not even a military law corps, and the logistics establishment was also empty.

This is to rapidly expand the territory and give the generals with the greatest power, and everything will be said to occupy the entire Golden State.

Zhu Ming never expected that someone would be so bold.

After saying the reward, Zhu Ming said the punishment: "Zhang Jin killed the deputy general, demoted to Chengxinlang, changed the power (acting) to command, and punished thirty military sticks!" ”

Guan Sheng expressed his concern: "Will it make him dissatisfied?" ”

Zhu Ming said: "Tell Zhang Jin privately and let him expand his army to 3,000 people. When he built the Fifth Army of Jinzhou in Pingli County, he would be able to atone for his sins and resume his official duties. Give him another treasure knife, which is a personal gift from me, so that he will not think much about it. ”

"Xiang Gong is thoughtful." Guan Sheng said sincerely.

The administrative and military systems have not been innovated for the time being, and everything has been inherited from the Great Song Dynasty.

Even the servants of the officials are the same, and they have to rely on gray income to eat.

Changing the system is a big project, which will cause short-term chaos and is not conducive to rapid development. On the contrary, it is the flaws of the old system that can be covered up in the expansion.

Zhu Guoxiang and Zhu Ming have not yet opened the government, and all orders are issued in their personal names.

These are extremely abnormal, and they must be discussed after occupying the entire Hanzhong and consolidating the territory.

When the time comes, Zhu Guoxiang opened the government to manage civil affairs, and Zhu Ming opened the government to manage military affairs. Adjust the official system and the system of Yulu by taking advantage of the situation, improve the military establishment and military law, and only after these things can we fight Bashu.

Guan Sheng set off quickly, met Zhang Jin in private, and conveyed Zhu Ming's meaning.

Zhang Jin said with a smile: "I know that killing the deputy without permission is a big crime, so let's beat the military stick if I beat the military stick." ”

Several of his goals have been achieved, and while the system has not been established, he does not have to worry about serious punishment at all, and it does not matter if he is temporarily demoted and beaten with a military stick.

The only accident was that Zhu Ming sent Guan Sheng to temporarily make him a deputy general.

Guan Sheng is Zhu Ming's personal soldier leader, and the implication of supervising it is too obvious, which makes Zhang Jin feel a little afraid. Let him choose again, he will definitely not dare to kill people directly, but escort Yang Anshi to Jinzhou and hand it over to Zhu Ming to deal with.

At the same time, Zhu Ming ordered all armies to strictly prohibit the occurrence of similar incidents again.

The next time you do it again, you will definitely cut off your head!

……

However, it was said that Yang Zhi took the elite soldiers of Iron Hat Village, and on the afternoon of Zhu Ming's army, he took a boat to Xunyang County to kill.

Approaching the arrival in the evening, Xunyang County was about to close the city gates, and the officials here did not know what was happening in the state capital.

Not a single soldier was damaged, occupied the city, grabbed the county order and cut it directly.

Zeng Xiaoduan, who set off with the army, took over the post of county commander and took control of the county government after Zhang Bang Anmin.

On the second day, Yang Zhi expanded his army to 1,500 people in Xunyang County, and asked Sun Li to divide his troops to attack Shuyang Town.

There was a patrol in the town that surrendered without saying a word.

In the border area between Xunyang County and Junzhou, there are several bandits. Hearing that Zhu Ming raised troops in Jinzhou, the bandits came to take refuge one after another, Yang Zhi asked to train the water army, and soon obtained Zhu Ming's consent.

In Shiquan and Hanyin counties, due to the late dispatch of troops, all the officials of the two counties abandoned the city and fled.

The entire Golden State is like a piece of paper, and in six days, all five counties have been reached.

The biggest casualty of the rebel army was that more than 20 people were executed by Zhang Jin.

If it were an ordinary peasant uprising, it is estimated that the rebel leaders would have drifted away, and it is completely unclear how dangerous this would be.

Go back to six days ago.

Zhu Guoxiang's soldiers were divided into three routes, pointing directly to the three counties of Yangzhou.

Sun Lan and Hua Rong led the troops to attack Xixiang County.

Deng Chun and Xu Ning led the troops to attack Zhenfu County.

Zhu Guoxiang and Zhang Guangdao took 200 soldiers to join Li Jinyi's Jintan Village army and personally attack Yangzhou City.

Zhu Guoxiang landed with a swagger like that, and there were people who greeted him along the way.

The people on the dock came to watch this strange army wearing rattan armor. The soldiers were already in the city, and no one thought that Zhu Xianggong was rebelling, and the guards at the city gate nodded and greeted him with a smile.

"Take it."

Zhu Guoxiang ordered softly.

A group of rattan armor soldiers pounced on it and quickly took control of the south city gate, and the doorman who was pressed to the ground didn't react yet.

What's the situation?

The city gate guard looked confused, and even shouted injustice: "Zhu Xianggong, we guarded the city gate, only collected a few small money, and did not commit a big crime!" ”

Zhu Guoxiang ignored it and led his troops straight to the state and county offices.

"Taishou, Zhu Xianggong is reversed, Zhu Xianggong is reversed!"

"What?"

Zhizhou Caozao thought that his ear was wrong: "Who is the opposite?" ”

The official exclaimed: "Zhu Xianggong has rebelled, and he has led his troops into the city to kill him!" ”

"Don't talk nonsense." Cao Zao still couldn't believe it.

"It's really killing!" The official said in a panic.

Cao Zao's first reaction was not to run away, nor to organize officials and archers to resist, but to go out with his relatives to confirm the news.

Before he stepped out of the gate of the state government, he collided with Zhu Guoxiang face to face.

"Yuan Zhanggong, what does this mean?" Cao Zao fell into an ice cave and looked at Zhu Guoxiang dumbfounded.

Zhu Guoxiang said: "You are not too greedy, you can avoid death, and when I capture Xingyuan Mansion, I will let you leave Hanzhong, but your money needs to be left." ”

Cao Zao was shocked, angry and frightened: "Duke Yuanzhang, the official family treats you well!" ”

Zhu Guoxiang said: "The official family treats the people very thinly. ”

"This is a rebellion, Yuan Zhang, please think twice!" Cao Zao pleaded.

Zhu Guoxiang didn't say anything anymore, and ordered: "Occupy the state government and treasury immediately." Zhang Guangdao, you send people to appease the people and call the gentry and merchants inside and outside the city. ”

……

Zheng family.

Zheng Lan looked at several children and grandchildren, and there were already six gods without masters: "Disaster, disaster, catastrophe!" It shouldn't have been ...... in the first place."

Zheng Hong was also very panicked, mainly because of the rebellion, which was a bit beyond his imagination.

The family discussed it repeatedly, but they couldn't come up with a result.

Zheng Yuanyi married Zhu Ming as a concubine, and gave birth to Zhu Ming's eldest son, and the Zheng family is a proper anti-thief in-law.

After arguing for a while, Zheng Hong finally regained his ability to think: "Grandfather, the Zhu family is reversed, and the Zheng family has to be reversed if they don't rebel." Send all the children of the clan to serve under Zhu Xianggong, and send some money, food, wine and food to the army. Our family can't get along, so we can only follow the Zhu family to do things. The Zhu family rebelled, and the Zheng family rebelled. The Zhu family recruited An, and the Zheng family followed Zhao'an. ”

The Zheng family is different from the Zhang family.

Although Zhang Gen married his daughter to Zhu Ming as his wife, Zhang's protégés had countless former officials, and he also married many official families. At most, the imperial court punished Zhang Gengen himself, and would definitely not punish the entire family.

And the Zheng family, properly destroying the disaster, can only go all the way to the dark.

Zheng Fatzi led the children of the clan, brought a lot of money, and hurried to the state government to meet Zhu Guoxiang.

Zhu Guoxiang was quite pleased and immediately gave the appointment: "If you go to be the commander of Xixiang County, you must appease the people!" ”

"Yes."

After the panic, Zheng Fatzi was actually a little excited.

Although he has been studying since he was a child, he can't even pass the exam, and now he has made a county order for some reason.

The prefectural order appointed by the anti-thief is also a prefectural order!

……

Scrap gold mines.

When Gong Xiu learned that Zhu Guoxiang had rebelled, he was stunned for a while, and then he was overjoyed: "I have long wanted to rebel, Zhu Xianggong has done a great job." Gather 500 young people, and go to Yangzhou City with me to join the army! ”

This guy has six sons, four of whom are adults, and they are all good men with excellent martial arts.

……

Shangbai Village.

"I know, I know!"

The old white man, whose legs were completely paralyzed, leaned on the chair and muttered: "As soon as his father and son came to the village, I knew that they were not good people, and sure enough, the wolf son had ambitions and conspired to cause trouble. ”

Bai Dalang asked, "What should my family do?" ”

The old white member said: "Your third brother is an official of the imperial court, and he was finally admitted to the Jinshi, can the Bai family still be a thief?" ”

"Yes...... But ......" Bai Dalang was about to cry.

"Let me think about it, let me think again." The old white man has some brains that are not enough, and Zhu Guoxiang's rebellion is too unexpected for him.

Although Bai Chongyan was admitted to the Jinshi, he was first awarded an official position, which was recommended by Zhu Ming. The second time he was awarded the official, he was recommended by Zhu Guoxiang.

The Zhu family's father and son rebelled, can this official continue to do it?

If you are a fart official, you will at least have to resign, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be removed from the list!

The old white man wants to cry without tears, and the Bai family finally came out of a jinshi, why did he encounter such an outrageous thing?

"Oh no, Gu Ye took Gu San down the mountain and is recruiting troops in the village to rebel!" A servant rushed in in a panic.

The old white man said, "Carry me out quickly." ”

Bai Dalang hurriedly followed, and the father and son hurriedly went to the village.

I saw the white-haired old Gu, holding a big knife in his hand, followed by more than a dozen tea workers.

Gu Shusheng (Gu San) held a spear and said to the villagers who came one after another: "The government is leviing more and more taxes, and you owe more and more rent to the Bai family, how can you still live this life?" Zhu Xianggong and Zhu Dalang are very righteous, so they simply go with me to join the army, maybe they can still be big officials. If you can trust me, pick up the shuttle dart stick and follow me! ”

Many young people have heard Zhu Ming talk about "Journey to the West" back then, and now they have grown up and become teenagers.

They are naturally close to the Zhu family's father and son, and even if it is a head-killing business, some people are willing to follow them.

Especially those who are young and are at the age of doing things recklessly.

When the Bai family's father and son arrived, there were already more than 40 people, carrying sticks and gathering around Gu San, and they were indifferent even if their parents begged to stop them.

Lao Gu arched his hand and said: "Outside the white staff, I owe the Bai family a favor, and it has been almost the same over the years, please don't stop me from recruiting soldiers in the village." ”

The old white man sighed: "Alas, you are also old, why bother to wade into that troubled water?" ”

Lao Gu said: "I have a grudge with the government, and I thought I had a clumsy life in this life. But I didn't think about it, Zhu Xianggong also did great things, if I didn't go to the army to rebel, I would be sorry for my dead parents. ”

The old Bai was silent for a while, and said to his son: "You bring some clansmen, go with them, the Bai family can't hide." Either soar to the top, or break the family, you can only follow Zhu Xianggong to gamble! ”
