And outside of Jinhua City in Wuzhou.
Yu Eshui, who is dressed as a tourist and riding a mule, is also hurriedly leaving with the flying pigeons; it's just that he recalled the words of someone in the city who had actively contacted him before:
"Roughly now there are about 54,000 people gathered under the generals. This number may differ in the future, but it will not be too different, because all the defenders are determined to fight with all their strength..."
"I'm not doing this for myself, but also for the elders in my hometown. It's just that I can save a few soldiers from the fire. No matter how harsh the pirates are, they are also the number of ways to fight the world and be willing to take good care of the place."
"Even if the general guards East Zhejiang, what can he do, can he continue to restrain and restrict the governors and generals so as not to act recklessly? He can only order the place he sees..."
"Even if he gains momentum, I don't know how many years it will take to restore the local wars and unify the situation of Jiangdong and Zhejiang..." Li Shu, the elder of the period, did not know how many years of suffering and suffering he would suffer. Up."
It's just that in the direction where E Shui was leaving, a young general also said to the old man in commoner with a face of perplexity and doubt:
"Why didn't my uncle let me catch this spy and tortured him..."
"Then, won't the thief army send more. You may get a reward from the general, but your family's retreat will be cut off..."
The old man sighed helplessly.
"Besides, you think that even if your family doesn't do this kind of thing, don't other families do it... This spy is probably also brought by other people with ulterior motives..."
"But, don't we have to work hard together, how can we be the first mouse at both ends"
The young general Bian still puzzled.
"That is also the unanimous decision of the defenders and generals. It is not what people like us mean.. Why did I ask you to take your son Bingjia to join the army? Isn't it to protect your family from being invaded? "
The old man sighed more and more.
"But once the thief army has been defeated, after the imminent threats and tribulations are gone, will the guards be able to live in peace, and can the other families be able to suppress their thoughts on their own family?"
"Instead of letting the family be lost in the hands of these rural enemies, it is better to fall into the hands of the thieves; at least they will leave a way for unrelated people to survive as long as the land tenants are not killed indiscriminately."
"Why is my uncle so frustrated and pessimistic... That's the famous General Zhang who has repeatedly flattened the thieves,"
The young general was a little uneasy.
"It is precisely because of him that is particularly worrying. The court has such talents but it is not useful, so that the villages living in our country can only rely on some Tuanzhen soldiers who are on their own side to become a force..."
The old man said with some distress:
"Isn't it true that the imperial court has long been exhausted, and how can it be worthy of the family's life to be buried? My family has neither the qualifications and reliance to dominate and win the troubled times, nor does it want to be a stumbling block between the old and the new. "
"Then you can only choose a place that seems most likely to unify Jiangnan, in order to find a long-term survival. Only in the current situation, even if the Taiping thief loses two games, what will happen to this generation? The vast land of Liangling and Jinghu can still come back."
"But once the general loses this time, I am afraid that there will be no future; he is now a desperate one who can't afford to lose and can't lose... Isn't that the same for the defenders and generals? So I spared no effort to do it."
"But uncle, do you want me to also do that trustworthy thing in the army..."
The young general Bian was a little confused and heartbroken. After all, Zhang Zixian, who was a veteran of the imperial court and a famous general, not only won the hearts of the people in a short period of time, but also gave them great hope and hope.
"Naturally not, how you should work hard or retaliate in the battlefield, and do your duty without exaggeration."
The old man is decisive.
"But in private, please be a little concerned about your family's position, and keep a little bit of your hand, not even making extravagances."
"Perhaps things are not as difficult as my uncle thinks. The general is not saying that there are few enemies, and there are good places and people. As long as he persists in the plum (rain), it will be a new counter-offensive period..."
The young general Bian turned to relieved.
"Yeah, maybe that's the case, but according to the general's plan, how many local people will be sacrificed and damaged before entering the plum, and can this family still call in the world? Have you thought about it again?"
The old man asked with some sadness.
"..."
The young general suddenly stopped talking, but couldn't help but look at the green mountains in the distance.
—I am the dividing line —
In the city of Zhuji on the border of Yuezhou and Wuzhou, Zhou Huaian, who had moved here, also just sent envoys from the south to seek peace and discuss matters of truce negotiations, as well as a group of petition representatives who claimed to be local elders.
The reason given is also that the two sides have never complained about it. All right and wrong and misunderstandings were provoked by Mingzhou Governor Zhong Jiwen. Now the culprit is no longer there, and continuing to use swords and soldiers will only cause more damage.
Therefore, for the time being, taking the actual control of the place as the boundary, and each setting their own ground to allow the people to rest and rest, is the right thing; and is willing to come up with a corresponding price for this, as long as it does not involve other financial resources on the site, children can negotiate.
After listening to this selection, I don't know whether to say that the other party is naive or shameless. Zhou Huaian wanted to say a classic saying "On the couch, how can I let him sleep", but unfortunately it is not right with the current Taiping Army painting style.
So he just said a few words, "Being for the people, rebuilding peace, can't let it go halfway", "Hurry up and clean my neck and wait for justice for sanctions", and then sent away.
"I'm afraid that this is Zhang's self-encouraging strategy. It's just how confident he came to ensure that he would not be seen through by me..."
Yang Shigu, who had finished the audit, said without hesitation.
"Perhaps he doesn't care about letting our army know. What he wants is just a basic attitude to show the public, or he can hide his mouth inside his own house... or it also means that showing weakness makes our army slacking and arrogant... "
Zhou Huaian thought for a while and responded.
"However, the enemy has the enemy's calculations, and our army has its own footsteps and strategies for defeating the enemy. Therefore, we can do what we should do. There is no need to think too much about others..."
"Is this because the governor vetoed the attacking strategy of the front team again..."
Luo Yin spoke meaningfully.
"Yes, letting the horse team and the cavalry camp go out of Wuzhou as a surprise soldier, the risks and accident probabilities they will face are really unpredictable."
Zhou Huaian replied without hesitation.
"There is neither the slightest basis for the people in the local area nor any nearby friendly forces to cope with and linkage. How can it be ensured that the center is blossoming. If it fails, it will become a pain point that the team has to save."
"Since our army is ready to take advantage of the trend, why bother to deliberately take risks and cause accidents and trivialities? Obviously, after winning streak, the horse team has the heart to underestimate the enemy and arrogantly win."
"I'm still saying that, no matter how fast the sharpest blade is, it will become dull with too much use. During the standby period, let them polish their skills and mentality to continue to come in handy..."
At this time, another new official document from Mingzhou arrived, and Zhou Huaian said with a smile of joy.
"What, there is such a thing, isn't the situation in Mingzhou getting twice the result with half the effort?"
Because according to the preliminary investigation report of the "three teams" carrying out activities in the local area, there are not many real big landowners in Mingzhou now? In other words, there is only one largest landowner left, the former Mingzhou governor Zhong Jiwen.
Because as early as a few years ago, he used all kinds of aggressive mergers to extend the Ningshao Plain, where Mingzhou is located, out of the coastal zone. Most of the good fields suitable for farming were included in his own name. .
Therefore, the work of the three squadrons immediately opened up after the Zhuangtou and the hospital owner appointed by the Zhong clan were arrested or fled one after another. In order to identify the land that he had been invaded, the local scholars and people were enthusiastic.
Later, Zhou Huaian also came to Chengqing Temple in the city, and continued to talk about the "Essentials of Peace" written by Luo Yin and answered corresponding questions to the scholars and scholars in the cleaned up hall.
"What is peace, in the eyes and mouths of different people, there are naturally different peaces..."
"Why are there constant disturbances and wars in this world? It's just that too many people want peace to be decided by themselves."
"So what the powerful family want is to let the mud legs be used as cows and horses for generations, and to work hard and obey the peaceful conditions like pigs and dogs..."
"What the local officials and subordinates want is the general public, like ready-made crops that are immovable, and they can be slaughtered unchangingly, like leeks, when one crop is harvested and one crop is in peace..."
"The imperial court and the emperor want peace to govern the world, but it is the benefit of the poor world to enshrine oneself. Everyone can still hold their own positions according to their duties, and it will not be easy for generations to come..."
"Those who are self-reliant vassals want their families to be able to focus on authority for generations, to win the court to rely on a high position and honor to enjoy wealth forever, and to subordinate to Li Shu's prestige, the martial arts of peace."
"As for the peace that the scholars and doctors in the world want, it is the exclusive privilege of the high officials from the ruling and opposition parties who are generous and honored and treated and respected. They can speak freely and even do whatever they want..."
"Now, what I want to pursue in the Taiping Army is to allow most of the people to live well over time. With hard work and hard work, I can get what I want and get enough food and clothing, and billions of people share the peace of mind. ."
"So the foundation of my Taiping Army is to use billions of trillions of creatures and the peace of the general public to replace the so-called peace of one family..."
Just as Zhou Huai'an recalled his vocal remarks, the first man and horse who happened to be free also formally crossed the Xiayang River at the border of Hangzhou, Vietnam, and Harmony, and flew toward Puyang County.
In the firework-filled offensive, it took a short period of time to lay down this first stronghold. (End of this chapter)
