Chapter 119: The Five Clans Join Hearts
The next morning, I walked forward to say hello.
In the bedroom, Da Kui sat alone on the 'bed' couch, with his back against the wall, and still carried an empty wine jar in his hand.
"The child walks to his father-in-law." He said with a deep salute.
Da Kui was speechless, still looking at the window, as if he wanted to see the wooden window as a 'flower'.
He walked forward, leaned over and whispered, "Father-in-law, you haven't closed your eyes all night.
Da Kui shook his head with a smile when he heard this, and said, "Good boy, my father-in-law can't sleep, you go."
Seeing that Da Kui was like this, he couldn't persuade him again, so he had to say, "I'll ask someone to bring some soup later, my father-in-law hasn't eaten well for many days."
Da Kui looked at Panbu, his heart was moved, and he smiled at the moment: "Don't bother, in a few days, my father will set off to return to Beijing to resume my life.
Panbu hugged his fists and bowed and said: "Father-in-law, but he has a life.
Da Kui nodded, and continued: "Since the father-in-law wants to do great things, he needs to take care of his body first, and how to do things if he doesn't eat."
Da Kui laughed when he heard this: "Okay, let's eat......."
Da Kui called Pan Bu to call Meng Ge, Pan Bu ordered someone to prepare a table of good dishes, steamed steamed buns, Pan Bu followed Da Kui for so long, but he was also used to the food of the Han people, Meng Ge sat at the table, still looking depressed, Da Kui understood his intentions, and smiled at the moment: "The deceased has passed away, the living mourn together, what we have to do should be to avenge the soldiers who died in battle." As he spoke, he grabbed the steamed buns on the table.' the chopsticks and start eating.
Panbu took the chopsticks and stuffed them into Meng Singer and said, "Master, let's eat."
Hearing the word revenge, Meng Ge seemed to come back to his senses, and he really felt hungry in his belly.
"You eat too, eat quickly." Da Kui has food stuffed in his mouth, and his speech is a little slurred.
Panbu agreed, then picked up chopsticks and ate together.This meal, Da Kui and Meng Ge were very full, but they didn't know what it tasted like.Because there was still something important to do.
After eating, Panbu ordered someone to serve tea, and then sat down with him.
Only then did Da Kui ask: "The battle of Qianling Mountain, where are the men and horses you are brought?"
Pan Bu saw the question and hurriedly replied: "It is a soldier of the five clans and sixteen villages in the vicinity."
Da Kui couldn't help but ask, "How could you gather such a force in a hurry, there must have been more than 3,000 people at that time?"
Pan Bu said with a smile: "My childhood friends, and a few sworn brothers, they are all heads or princes of various tribes and villages."
Da Kui smiled and nodded, and continued: "At that time, there were still few people, and if there was enough time, it would be okay to pull up 20,000 horses."
Da Kui's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then he said, "In this way, a big thing has been accomplished."
Meng Ge listened a little inexplicably, and asked suspiciously, "What is the stepfather going to do?"
Da Kui said coldly: "I want to take Shunyuan City."
"Ahh Panbu was so shocked that he could stuff a steamed bun in his mouth, Meng Ge was also dumbfounded, and then Panbu shook his hand again and again, and said: "Father-in-law, I can't help it, Shunyuan City is the easternmost barrier under the rule of King Liang, and there are 20,000 cavalry and 30,000 armor soldiers in the city." Panbu swallowed his spit as he spoke, and then said: "50,000 'elite' soldiers plus the high walls of the city, how can we take the city with 20,000 horses?"
Meng Ge 'interjected' on the side and said: "These soldiers are not as good as the Yuan soldiers, they are all untrained people of all ethnic groups, besides, where do the weapons come from, even if they enter the city, how can they fight against the Yuan soldiers."
Da Kui smiled lightly and said: "Good fighters, win with righteousness and odds, if it is 20,000 strange soldiers, how can the Yuan soldiers be defended." After a pause, Da Kui said: "To the north is the boundary of the Great Xia Kingdom. The Lord of the Great Xia Kingdom, Ming 'Yu' Zhen, and the King of Liang have fought several times without success.
Meng Ge couldn't help but clapped his hands when he heard the words: "Virtuous brother is wonderful."
Panbu listened to his father-in-law's analysis, and also agreed, but then hesitated: "If it's an emergency, it's easy to say, but if it's a war with the Yuan soldiers, I don't know what the opinions of each village are."
Da Kui laughed and said, "You don't have to worry about this, just gather people."
He stood up and said, "Okay, I'm going to rush to the people, and my father-in-law should rest here." He got up and walked out of the room.
As soon as Panbu left, Meng Ge asked urgently, "Brother Xian, can you do this?"
Da Kui couldn't help asking, "You know you can't do it, and you have to agree just now."
Meng Ge sighed anxiously: "Didn't I just give you a round scene, how could the big village of all ethnic groups be driven by you."
Da Kui smiled but didn't answer, got up and walked to the bed, only then did Meng Ge see that there was a pair of saddles in the corner next to the bed.
Da Kui took out a burden from the saddle bag of the saddle and walked back to the table. Meng Ge looked at Da Kui's actions, but his heart was a little puzzled.
Inside the burden is a thick stack of silver tickets.The top one of the silver tickets is clearly printed with the words 'Tianchengheng' one thousand taels.Meng Ge couldn't help but turn over a few more.They are 'Bao Fenglong', 'Sanjin Yuan', 'Cunyi Gong', 'Huiyuan Yong', 'Hesheng Yuan', 'Jin Shengrun', 'Dade', 'Jade', and so on. Flowers, flowers, and silver.
In Meng Ge's horrified gaze, Da Kui put the burden away and tied it back again, turned around, and said, "These silver tickets are worth about eight million taels.
Meng Ge couldn't help but swallow his spit, and said in his heart: "This silver is enough to buy a city.......
The next day, before noon, the head of the village came one after another, including the Yi people, the Gelao people, the Shui people, and the Bai people, the four tribes of the big village head, and now Panbu is the head of the Yao people, so the five tribes gathered.
Da Kui sat down in the main hall.Meng Ge stood beside him with a brocade baggage.The people at the head of the village sat in two shifts.Since the five clans had arrived.Da Kui no longer delayed the hour.Xiang Panbu signaled: "You can start." The reason why Da Kui signaled Panbu first was because Panbu was the head of the Yao tribe and the initiator of this conference.
He straightened his turban and stood up and said, "This time I summoned all the people from the village to come here, and what I did was a big deal." As soon as these words came out, the other four village leaders not only 'exchanged' each other's heads, but then someone asked Panbu: "Panbu, what's the big deal?"
Panbu was stunned by the question, but it was not easy to say that he was going to attack Shunyuan City, so he had to cast a gaze to Da Kui for help.
Seeing this, Da Kui had no choice but to 'interject' and say, "It's better for this official to say." He cleared his throat and continued: "This official is Zhang Dakui, the political envoy of Jiangnan......."
As soon as the words fell, the leaders of the four villages, except for Panbu, all stood up in unison and bowed to Da Kui.
The head of the Yi nationality, Longzan Aqi, said: "In the past, the great famine of Shunyuan was completed, and thanks to the help of Lord Zhang, the grain was opened, so that the lives of Shunyuan were spared. As he spoke, he led the rest of the leaders of Sanzhai to kneel down on their knees.
Seeing this, Da Kui hurriedly stepped forward to help each other, and waited until everyone got up. Da Kui said earnestly: "It is the unshirkable responsibility of this official to save the people from fire and water.
Longzan Aqi raised his voice and said, "What do you want us to do?"
Da Kui saw that this Longzan Aqi was only in his early twenties, but he was very bold, and he had heard Panbu say that he was the forty-sixth grandson of the Yi tribe in Guizhou.
Da Kui did not hide it at the moment, and said bluntly: "This official wants to borrow troops from all the leaders." When this sentence came out, it naturally caused a lot of discussion.
Da Kui pressed his hands to show quiet, and raised his voice: "Everyone is calm, don't be impatient." When everyone calmed down, Da Kui Fang continued: "Since the Yuan Court dominated the north and south of the great river, the livelihood of the people of all ethnic groups has withered and miserated. Seeing that the village leaders nodded in agreement, Da Kui said again: "If we don't rise up to resist, when will we be able to get rid of the clutches." Da Kui pointed to the pan and said, "The Yao family has always been diligent in farming and kind to people, but Yuan Ting has never given them the opportunity to live and work in peace and contentment........
Da Kui has a well-founded foundation, and the head of what he said is the Tao, and the leaders of the villages are full of righteous indignation when they hear it, and Panbu first stands up and shouts: "Our Yao family swears to follow Master Zhang to the death." After shouting this sentence, he turned his head and asked Longzan Aqi, "If you still treat me as a brother, then go with me to fight the 'Mongolian' ancient Tartars."
Hearing this, he took a step forward and said, "I, Longzan Aqi, will not let my brothers take risks. Before the words could be spoken, the leaders of the other three clans also stepped forward and shouted, "And us."
Da Kui couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that the matter had been done.
Longzan Aqi and several people turned around one after another to look at Da Kui, Longzan Aqi asked: "Master Zhang, you said that you were going to fight the Yuan soldiers, the nearest Yuan soldier here is Shunyuan City, do you want to fight Shunyuan City?"
Da Kui laughed and said, "It's Shunyuan City."
Long Zan Aqi couldn't help but be shocked: "There are tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers in Shunyuan City.
Da Kui smiled lightly and said, "If you have a heart and no heart, you can't win."
Then everyone sat down, and Da Kui and the leaders began to discuss the siege strategy.
