Chapter 413: Military heart, people heart
With a bumper harvest of food, cattle and sheep, and with the pitiful low one-time tax revenue of the Tiger and Leopard Army, all the people and residents are full of hope for their future.
When piles of grain were collected into the granary, more than 80% of the people and the villagers in the entire Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces established a tablet of immortality for Wei Zheng, burning incense and worshiping Buddha every day, praying for Wei Zheng to live a hundred years and be the commander of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces forever.
In this case, without Wei Zheng's words, more than 10 million people in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces became unconditional followers of Wei Zheng and the entire Tiger and Leopard Army...
As the soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Army returned one after another, and the harvest at home was slowly promoted in the military camp, the entire Tiger and Leopard Army was in full swing. Because, the family members who were concerned about would never return to the hard days of being hungry under the rule and protection of the general.
I am happy that they have not forgotten the dangerous situation currently facing the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi.
When his family was about to live a good life, the imperial army, which was inferior to the beast, actually wanted to steal the income of his hard-working year from his family, so that his family would return to their original hungry days.
As a soldier who holds weapons and protects his family, the Xiaobao Army soldiers will certainly not allow such a thing to happen.
Therefore, in just a few days, all the soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Army had an unswerving belief in their hearts.
"Even if you die in the battlefield, you cannot let the imperial army enter the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces and snatch away the food that your family has worked hard to receive. Let the family live a hard life again."
"As long as I have a breath, I have to follow Marshal Wei to the end. Because everything I have and my family is given by Marshal. Only by always being with whom I am and my family can I live a good life forever."
The firm belief of "swearing to follow the commander to the death and fighting with the imperial officials and soldiers to the end". In addition, the influence of some people in the army, a voice quickly came from the middle of the 100,000 garrisons in the Tiger and Leopard Army and Shanxi Provinces.
"Follow the Grand Marshal to fight out of the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi, and fight all the way to the stables, so that the Grand Marshal can become the emperor..."
"As long as the general becomes the emperor, no one can take away the good life in everyone's hands..."
As the rumors spread more and more intensely, Wei Zheng, the person involved in the rumor, had to stand up and speak.
In the nearest Tiger and Leopard Army camp to the Shanxi Governor's Office, five thousand Tiger and Leopard Army soldiers, without exception, all with hot eyes. Looking at Wei Zheng, who was wearing armor on the mattress.
As the commander-in-chief, Wei Zheng also inspected back and forth among the five thousand soldiers with appreciation and school examination eyes.
In this way, after a cup of tea, Wei Zheng, who slowly showed a satisfied smile on his lower body, was so angry that he fell into his dantian and shouted in his greatest voice.
"Soldiers, brothers... I know that there have been rumors in the army recently. I want to lead everyone into the city and become the emperor. Today, I can tell you with certainty. I don't want to be the emperor, nor will I become the emperor. The reason why I bring everyone to fight against the court is not for my own benefit, but for everyone and my family to return to the original life of refugees who are hungry and may starve to death at any time..."
In the minds of ordinary soldiers, there are not so many reasons and little thoughts.
Since the general standing on the stage did not want to be the emperor, the general's actions in the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces were all for them and for their families.
So, as soon as Wei Zheng finished speaking, the eyes of many soldiers in front of him turned red because of the touch.
At this time, I don’t know who shouted: “Swear to be loyal to the commander to the death…”
Just after shouting, those soldiers who were moved so much that they found a breakthrough to vent their inner excitement. At the same time, they raised their fists and said loudly: "Swear to be loyal to the Grand Marshal... I am willing to die for the Grand Marshal..."
Like thunder, shouting, round after round, endlessly.
If Wei Zheng hadn't waved his hand and calmed everyone down, Wei Zheng really didn't know how long it would take to stop this slogan that would have been higher than the next.
When the soldiers' eyes turned to themselves again, Wei Zheng's words suddenly changed and continued to roar.
"Although I don't want to be the emperor, I can't let the court say we are rebels from the Ming Dynasty."
"Brothers tell me, are you willing to be a 'rebel' hat on your head and be looked down upon by others in the Ming Dynasty?"
"I don't want to...I don't want to..." Under the leadership of the officer, these three words roared out from the mouths of five thousand soldiers like thunder, and their voices were filled with anger and determination, deafening.
At this time, Wei Zheng continued to yell...
"Yes, I just don't want to... Not only do my brothers don't want it, but I don't want it... I believe that your family will be very unwilling..."
"But the court has put the hat on us. It is not just a word that the court can take off the hat on our heads..."
"Since that's the case, what should we do?"
"I will tell you now that there is only one way, that is, to fight... Use our fists and weapons to attack the imperial court, open up the minions on the ground, and force the imperial court to compromise with us..."
"Only in this way, the fear of our court will take off our rebel hats under our threat..."
"So, what I want to tell you here is: I don't want to be an emperor, but in order to get the court to take off the "rebel" hat on our heads, I must take everyone to the stables, fight all the way outside the stable city, forcing the court to compromise with us, and take off the "rebel" hat on our heads..."
Speaking of this, Wei Zheng raised his fist and shouted loudly: "Send the troops to force the official army to retreat..."
Under Wei Zheng's personal leadership, the five thousand soldiers were like angry lions, raising their fists at the same time and shouting slogans with Wei Zheng...
"Send troops to the stable and force the court to retreat..."
In this way, in less than two days, Wei Zheng did not want to be the emperor, but in order to take off the rebel hat on everyone's heads, the idea of having to send troops to the stable quickly reached the ears of tens of thousands of soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Army.
Wei Zheng's words, coupled with his family's better and better life, the entire Tiger and Leopard Army immediately became a rope, screaming all day long, and wanted to send troops to the stable with Wei Zheng.
