The "participation in politics" of the Ming Dynasty was a lower-level official who "undertook to announce the political envoy" at the local level, from the third grade.

And Wang Li, who is the "admiral" of the third grade, will not lose to Hong Chengchou in terms of momentum.

Maybe it's a preconception, even if this Ming Dynasty is not the same as in history, Wang Li still regards Hong Chengchou as a "second minister" and doesn't give him a good face.

"Lord Politics, you were originally a Jinshi, and you didn't stay in the garrison to manage the paperwork, why did you learn from others to lead the troops?"

Wang Li deliberately emphasized the word "participation in politics", implying that he was one level higher than Hong Chengchou, and made ridiculous remarks.

Hong Chengchou was not angry, and smiled slightly: "Inspector Yuan is also from a Jinshi, hasn't he also been a secretary of the military department?" Don't you also lead troops to defend against the enemy?

Besides, the factory man was born as a woodcutter, didn't he also make the three-rank admiral? Didn't you also lead the brocade guards to quell the civil uprising?

The factory has never studied, but the various disaster relief measures in Shanxi have made Governor Yang full of praise! ”

Hong Chengchou's words were neither humble nor arrogant, and he was both derogatory and praising Wang Li, making him speechless.

I have to say that these scholars who learn the way of sages not only scold people without dirty words, but also sound a little pleasing to the ear!

At this time, Hong Chengchou was not a "second minister", and after relieving the siege of Hancheng, his reputation became famous, and it was difficult for Wang Li to find the direction to continue the attack.

Therefore, Wang Li first coaxed and raised the wine bowl: "Lord Hong, you invited me over, won't it be just a bar?" ”

Hong Chengchou picked up the wine bowl, but did not bring it to his mouth, and continued: "Gonggong, you brought Shanxi's Great Yao King, Nine Dragons, Four Heavenly Kings, and Yingshanhong to Yansui last year, which is a little unrighteous, right?"

These chaotic people, but Governor Yang helped you settle it! ”

Hearing this, Wang Li's brows tightened.

What is the Great Death King?

What Nine Dragons?

And the Four Heavenly Kings and Yingshan Hong, what the hell are they?

These names are the leaders of the rebellion when you hear them!

I haven't seen them before, how do I lead them from Shanxi to Yansui?

Is this a human thing?

Am I that mean?

Hey? That's not right!

Last year, more than 100,000 hungry people were indeed deceived into northern Shaanxi!

Could it be that after these hungry people arrived in Yansui, they all rebelled?

I'll go!

If these guys go back to Shanxi, where will I still be killed!

I said, why didn't anyone come back!

It turned out that it was leveled by Governor Yang!

"Uh...... Lord Hong, that's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!

Come on, dry this bowl of wine, we are brothers, hahaha! ”

Brothers?

Be a brother with a eunuch?

Hong Chengchou was really a little depressed, but he still picked up the wine bowl and drank it all with a smile.

"Factory father, do you really regard Hong as a brother?"

Hong Chengchou looked sincere, and it was Wang Li's turn to be unhappy!

This guy is likely to be a second minister!

If you are a brother with the second minister, you will be scolded by future generations!

I don't have any big ambitions, I just want to make some money, but I can't stand the scolding of the world!

Let my children and grandchildren, how to raise their heads and behave as people?

However, "the mouth is fleshy and skiny, and it is moving while talking", empty mouth and white teeth casually talk, and you can turn your face and deny it when you turn your head!

So, I'm afraid of him!

"Lord Hong's battle of Hancheng, even the Lord Long Live is full of praise, and the future in the future is bound to be limitless!

It is a blessing for the younger brother to be a brother with Lord Hong!

I can't ask for it, I can't ask for it! ”

Wang Li's words are indeed true!

In his opinion, Yang He's hanging up is a matter of time!

After Yang He, no one dared to take up a post in Shaanxi!

At that time, as long as Hong Chengchou is bold enough, as long as he makes some more contributions, he will be the "governor of the three sides"!

Moreover, Hong Chengchou in history was ruthless when he started a war!

Right now, the original ally Yuan Chonghuan is in prison, Wei Zhongxian has become obscene and trivial again, and if he wants to mix in the long run, he should find another reliable ally!

As for Hong Chengchou, as long as you keep a proper distance from him, as long as he jumps out and scolds first when he becomes a "second minister", it's no big deal!

It's just that...... Hong Chengchou's expression is like crying and laughing, what does it mean?

"Lord Hong, you are ......"

"Factory father, are you really willing to be a brother with Hong?"

"Uh...... Don't...... Is there anything wrong? ”

"Factory father! Hong is serious! It's not just a casual talk!

If you want, we'll burn the yellow paper right away! Worship heaven and earth! Be true brothers! ”

Hong Chengchou stared at Wang Li directly, for fear that he would regret it!

Since the civil uprisings in Shaanxi and Shanxi, Hong Chengchou has thought of countless ways to quell them, but they have all been vetoed!

Yang He's appeasement, Hong Chengchou does not approve!

But, after all, Yang He is his own boss and can't object!

Now, appeasement has become a fact, the people's rebellion has temporarily subsided, and the government and the opposition are jubilant!

And Hong Chengchou saw the hidden worries!

The imperial court allocated 160,000 taels of disaster relief funds to Shaanxi!

However, this money is not far from the capital division, and there are only 80,000 taels left!

Transported to Shaanxi, only 40,000 taels remained!

The total amount of each state and government is less than 20,000 taels!

The severance pay paid to the people is less than 10,000 taels in total!

Although the money is not much, the rioters have temporarily "gone home to farm"!

However, the drought in Shaanxi, can there be a harvest from farming?

If there is a harvest, there will be no rioters!

Therefore, it will be a matter of time before the resurgence of the people in Shaanxi!

At that time, the imperial court will no longer believe in "appeasement", and will go all out to encircle and suppress!

However, how much silver can the court allot?

How much money can be left when this silver arrives in Shaanxi?

Therefore, appeasement or purging is not the best way to quell the civil uprising!

Xichang's appeasement strategy in Shanxi, Hong Chengchou has carefully studied!

Lead the people to plant sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn, how much can fill their stomachs!

led the people to mine and cast iron, led the people to dig coal, led the people to plant tobacco, and increased the people's income!

It will allow them to fill their stomachs even more!

In this kind of disaster relief, the imperial court does not need to invest too much silver, but it is the only way to cure the symptoms and cure the root cause!

Moreover, the court can also earn a sum of silver!

It can be seen that this West Factory is by no means an extraordinary person!

It's a pity that the people and resources of Shaanxi and Shanxi are slightly different, and it is difficult to replicate Shanxi's disaster relief method!

With the shrewdness and ability of the factory company, if you can guide the disaster relief in Shaanxi, you will be able to make achievements!

Of course, now is not the time!

Wait until everything in Shaanxi is "up to your own", and then ask the factory to come out!

Therefore, it is imperative to burn yellow paper with the factory and worship heaven and earth as brothers, which is a rainy day!

At this moment, Hong Chengchou desperately wants to be a brother, but Wang Li is scared a lot!

The people of this era especially attach great importance to "burning yellow paper and worshiping heaven and earth"!

As long as you go through this ceremony, if you commit a big crime, even if you don't know each other, you may be "punished by the nine clans" because of the "brotherly relationship"!

Nima!

This Hong Chengchou is likely to be the second minister in the future!

I just want to find an ally, an ally who can help each other, an ally who can turn his face at any time, so I pretend to be a brother with him!

Unexpectedly, this guy actually took it seriously?

Could it be that he also watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and went crazy?

Or, does he know his net worth?

Think you're a real eunuch and want your inheritance?

No way!

Can't let this guy get his way!

Can't let him grab his pigtails!

"Uh...... Lord Hong, I'm just a eunuch!

If you burn yellow paper with Lord Hong to worship brothers, it may be ominous!

If Lord Hong is wiped out because of this, the sin of the younger brother will be too great!

In fact, the most important thing for brothers of the opposite sex is to be honest with each other, loyal to each other, and support each other, not those bells and whistles!

You say yes, right? ”

Wang Li's harmless expression and heartfelt words coaxed Hong Chengchou into a fog!

"What the factory said is very true!

Factory father, Hong is fifteen years older than you, so you should be the big brother! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! That's right! Wang Li laughed, stood up, and respectfully raised the wine bowl: "Big brother, little brother respects you a bowl!" ”

"Good! Good! After this bowl of wine, we are brothers! ”

Hong Chengchou raised the wine bowl, and the two drank it all, patted each other on the shoulder, and laughed nonstop.

Suddenly, Hong Chengchou suddenly pulled out the long sword at his waist!

Song Zhe hurriedly protected Wang Li, but Hong Chengchou turned around and went outside the tent!

Wang Li was wondering, but saw Hong Chengchou looking up to the sky and vowing:

"The heavens are above! Today, Hong Chengchou and Wang Ergou are brothers with different surnames, treating each other with all sincerity, sharing honor and disgrace, and never rebelling against each other!

Breaking this oath is like this stone! ”

"Phew!"

The boulder in front of him was cut off by the waist!

Such arm strength makes Wang Li envious!

learned Hong Chengchou's appearance and swore to the sky, but he always cut hard stones, which made Hong Chengchou a little embarrassed!

Alas!

I knew that I should have learned some martial arts from Chen Wangting!

Even if you practice for 30 years, you will only be 52 years old!

"Poof......

The stone was finally cut off in a small piece, and Song Zhe hurriedly made a round, and the matter was over.

Back in the tent, a few bowls of wine were down, and Wang Li was slightly drunk.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Hong Chengchou opened his mouth: "Second brother, I heard...... Are you recruiting in Shanxi? ”

These words immediately alerted Wang Li.

Could it be that he knew that he had made money digging coal?

Could it be that he knew he wanted to form cavalry?

No way!

This matter must be kept secret for now!

O cavalry! What a lot of money-burning stuff!

If he opens his mouth to borrow money from soldiers, I am embarrassed to refuse!

This guy, worshipping his brother, really didn't have a good heart!

So, Wang Li's eyes rolled and he was full of haha: "Oh, what kind of soldiers to recruit and what kind of horses to buy!" Man Gui is the chief soldier of Datong, and he has nothing to do with me! ”

"Oh?" Hong Chengchou frowned slightly: "I heard...... The emperor transferred General Cao to Shanxi, not only canonized the Taiyuan General Army, but also gave him a thousand Guanning Iron Cavalry!

It is said that when General Cao set off, the emperor specially explained that he should obey the command of his second brother!

You don't know this? ”

"Huh? Is there such a thing? Wang Li really didn't know, and looked Hong Chengchou up and down: "Big brother, I did seconded General Cao to Long Live Lord!"

But I didn't know that he had already set off!

I didn't know that he brought a thousand Guan Ning Iron Horses!

You...... How do you know? ”

"Second brother, you, the commander of the West Factory, I am not well informed about the news!" Hong Chengchou laughed, and then explained:

"General Cao should have been ordered by the emperor to first go south to detour to Henan, then to Xi'an, and then north to Shaanxi;

I guess I want to deter the rioters everywhere!

At the beginning, I thought that Mr. Cao was supporting Shaanxi, and I was really happy!

It wasn't until Governor Yang talked about the second brother's secondment of General Cao that he suddenly realized!

Second brother, you really have great powers! ”

After listening to Hong Chengchou's explanation, Wang Li still felt that something was wrong!

Just now, the "recruitment" he mentioned should not be Cao Wenzhao alone!

This guy is always mysterious!

I didn't feel good at first glance!

Deal with him, pay more attention!

Especially when he is greedy for money, he must not be caught!
