The Eastern Capital Army, which is undergoing renovation and supplementation in Pengcheng, Xuzhou, also welcomed private visitors two days later.
"Master... Is that really what you said?"
As the head coach of the local Eastern Capital Army, Zhu Laosan looked at Laosan in surprise and shock:
"The Lord's account is very clear. Although your Dalang went the wrong way, he was able to get lost in time after the incident. The Governor is naturally willing to give a chance to repair and bridge his father and son again..."
Zhou Yuhou Xiao Qiyi, as a proselytist, said in a serious way:
"The king is really as good as a mountain and a sea to my Zhu family! Dalang (Zhu Youyu), what can Dalang have to bear?"
He couldn't help but said with some tears:
To be honest, Lao San Zhu is still a little unbelievable about this result. You must know that according to the custom from generation to generation, is it rare for father and son brothers to mutilate each other because of this kind of rebellion and rebellion? The eldest son he had always valued was executed, and he was sent directly to Chang'an. Now that he can live a life, he has the opportunity to pass on the bloodline ancestry. It is a blessing in misfortune.
However, the identity represented by the person who came to spread the word is also truly true. Don’t think that the other party is just a relative under the tent, but he is the first undeveloped king who followed Lingwai to take care of him. Followers in daily life; and added one of the first 26 members of the apprentice team under personal instruction;
Now that the members of this first group of apprentice teams have survived many adversities and disturbances, only a dozen people have survived; but now they are all in the military’s confidential duties or key positions; so much so that those who were far-fetched by the world and later The members of several groups of apprentice teams are called "Sheng Apprentices" or "Suihu Shisan Langjun".
And this Zhou Xiaoqi seems to be the most inconspicuous and has no sense of existence in it, but most of Zhu Laosan who knows the inside story does not dare to underestimate and be slow; therefore, he followed that very early. One of the leaders of the young man Yuan Cong next to the king, he is the only one who has passed the Zhou surname given to him by the king.
Among the powers of the various dynasties and dynasties, they are the closest confidants and children of the Yajun who are like the masters, named Yierdu, Houzhai Langjun and other special existences. It's just that since this little Zhou Langjun has followed the king for so many years, he rarely has the opportunity to hear his name and corresponding sense of existence;
That means that this person is likely to have enough loyalty and introverted side, and is not like to be publicized by nature; on the other hand, it is this person who is also responsible for the most confidential and vital affairs, so he rarely comes forward when necessary. Opportunity. But once he appeared in public, it also represented particularly important relations and issues, or the determination and attitude of the king.
Therefore, at the temporary meeting that re-convened most of the main generals in the army, Zhu Laosan did not hesitate to announce the instructions from Luoyang; however, he also obscured his eldest son Zhu Youyu in confinement. Part, and asked with a decisive attitude and unquestionable determination:
"Now that the Mengdu Mansion is gracious and Yumu, my martial arts will not be dusted with swords, but can still contribute to the country, and continue to seek meritorious future for our children and grandchildren..."
"Whatever you think, just say it on the spot, so that everyone can tell the truth about it and see it right..."
"But if someone is concealed when it is time to clarify, just don't say it, but hide the head and show the tail and want to regret and make trouble afterwards, then I can't blame me for turning my face and ruthlessly, even if my children and grandchildren will be safe!!!"
Compared to Zhu Lao San, who was utterly loud, these generals were shocked and discussed on the spot. Some people immediately showed unsurprising or relieved expressions. Others reacted plainly and calmly to wait and see, or made up their minds not to speak first and just follow the trend; but there are also others who disagree or remain unmoved. Or they are disappointed by this pessimism.
And then it became filled with worried or deliberate doubts:
"If you dare to ask me, I take it seriously, can I not go?"
"It's not a means to divide and kill our army..."
"Could it be that the Central Plains will kill the donkey?"
"Does my generation really want to bury the bones outside the realm for this?"
After all, compared to Zhu Laosan, who is already psychologically prepared and relatively clear about reality, and his personal confidence belong; these old brothers and subordinates who have been along with each other are relatively slow to respond, or somewhat less. Be more sensitive. But nowadays, with the majority of Henan Province calmed down, even stupid people can feel a certain kind of faint smell that the world has changed and is completely inferior to the past.
The most obvious signs and signs are reflected in their respective armies. Although the Eastern Capital Army suffered a lot of casualties from this battle, but because of the replenishment and effective transportation of the rear, it has become more and more powerful in a sense. But at the same time, they invariably felt the decline in the control and influence of their opponent's army.
After all, ordinary soldiers can't see much long-term stakes and gains and losses. After their food, clothing, food and wages are adequately supplied and steadily distributed, instead of relying on a personal relationship of a general official and no longer being exploited for this, they will naturally unite out of the contrast of their own interests. Address and resistance come from Correspondingly, the unreasonable demands and coercion of the officer's belongings, operations and duties outside of the battle.
Only a few generals who have always been close to the soldiers and generous to disperse their wealth can continue to maintain the rigorous management of the army and personal influence under such circumstances; but such people are only a minority. In the eyes of other people, it is normal to lead soldiers to fight for the evil of Shangdang while working for themselves. People who just think this way are gradually decreasing in the past turmoil.
In the process of the gradual pacification of the Central Plains, I saw firsthand how well-equipped and unstoppable the morale of the Taiping Army in coordinated operations; these people wanted to use their troops as evidence to continue to maintain in this world. The hope of living in a military commander at all levels from top to bottom, dominating and blessing the side, is also becoming more and more elusive and shattered.
Nowadays, although some people still have some fluke and hope that this day will not come or that it will come too late, it will inevitably show the pain and affection that is inescapable after the event is about to come. I took this opportunity to talk and vent together, but I just wanted to encourage Zhu Lao San, who was the leader, to come forward and continue to postpone the process.
However, after more than half an hour, in front of Zhu Lao San, who was looking around with his arms folded, the hoarse quarrels and discussions finally fell from the peak of the turbulent affair, and the dry tongue gradually disappeared. Coming down, and concentrated on the back and forth disputes that have become hoarse during a small poking person;
However, there were only two surviving soldiers from the old rebel army, Li Jian, one of the chief cavalry officers, and several older generals. Those who could not dispute with them were Kou Yanqing, Ma Sixun, and Wang Wu. Xinrui; and at this time, Zhu Lao San also waved his hand in the void, and immediately silenced them for a while, and then said:
"The governor's office is free to explain, this matter is naturally at its own discretion, and those who wish to follow..."
Hearing these words, many of the people present inevitably became broadened or greatly relieved; however, Zhu Laosan then continued:
"But, I will personally lead my troops to promote the prosperity of the country, to promote the country outside the territory..."
"Durate!!"
"Never..."
"Everyone must be cautious!!"
"I have decided, no need to say anything!"
However, Zhu Laosan left this sentence, but turned his head and left without hesitation, leaving behind all of their persuasion. But when he walked out of the tent, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At least he might have raised objections to this. As the right-hand man Zhu Zhen, Hu Zhen and others did not object to it, and he publicly stated his position, then this One thing is much more secure;
As for the stubborn and indecisive dissident Li Pan and others who were opposed on the spot, it seems that there is no place for them to continue to exist in the new dynasty. I am afraid that they will eventually get a rich family and a farm. Weng’s chances are not counted on. Because, for the sake of other people's safety and security, there is no room for emotion and reason to stay.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glanced at the two commanders from Zhihe and Tingdu who were in the shadows in their helmets and armors; the other party immediately retreated and left amidst the sound of some kind of leather sac sacs.
In fact, similar proposals soon appeared in front of Cao Xiang of the Tianping Army, Zhuge Zhongfang of the Heyang Army, and others; but compared to Zhu Laosan, who was eager to love his son, their choices and reactions were It's slightly different.
For example, Zhuge Zhongfang did not hesitate to write a letter stating that he was willing to hand over the army to accept the reorganization of the new dynasty after Hebei was settled, and then went to the two capitals to be a rich and noble idler who has no attachment to the past.
On the other hand, Cao Xiang directly stated that he was tired of fighting and killing, and hoped that he could dismiss the remaining Tianping army and return him to the countryside to live and work in peace. And he is willing to take a position as a farming officer to the Yanbian prefectures to open up wasteland for the new dynasty. (End of this chapter)
