When Zhu Yuanzhang heard that Xu Da had entered Xuancheng, he felt relieved. No matter what, this small town could not escape. Then he took out the letter from his left sleeve and handed it to Zhang Ximeng.
"Look, this belongs to Yang Zhongying."
Zhang Ximeng rolled his eyelids. As expected, the two guards all surrendered. It seemed that the two men didn't know each other's plans yet, and were preparing to use each other as a stepping stone to achieve success.
.I really don’t know how to describe them!
Zhang Ximeng paused for a moment, and there were a few more letters in his hand... wasn't it just letters? Who hasn't already?
"My lord, Sun Yan got this. He contacted the rich people in the city, and these people are also willing to serve the Zhu family army. But their strength is not very strong. I originally thought that when the siege of the city is critical, let them
I went to offer the city, but I didn’t expect that someone had already dedicated the city in advance, so it seems that it won’t be needed.”
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned. He took the letter and took a look at it. It was really like this.
OK!
How wonderful!
Wu Datou came over to spread the word that there were tens of thousands more militiamen on Ningguo Road, all of them heading towards Zhu Jiajun.
Then the two defenders felt something was wrong and rushed to surrender.
When it comes to these rich families, they will also serve Zhu Jiajun.
This is great!
From top to bottom, from the inside out, everyone wants to surrender, everyone wants to do things for Zhu Jiajun!
We are so lucky!
Lao Zhu was holding a bunch of people's letters, and he gradually had a different look on his face. Surrendering too much is not a good thing!
"It seems that the difficulty now is not how to capture Xuancheng, but how to govern Xuancheng."
Zhang Ximeng was surprised, Lao Zhu was really sharp!
"My lord can predict it, so it won't be difficult."
Lao Zhu couldn't help but smile, "Although we know what to do, we still need my husband's help to fill in the gaps before we can complete it!"
Zhang Ximeng said quickly: "This is exactly what I should do!"
…
Lao Zhu and Zhang Ximeng were discussing how to deal with the affairs of Xuancheng. At this moment, the various forces in the city had become a mess... Seeing that Bu Buhua was gone, Yang Zhongying thought he had abandoned the city and fled. He was a cunning thief.
, you really have a good nose. If you run away, who should I take credit for?
This man thought for a while and immediately pounced on the wealthy households, preparing to use them to ask for credit from Lao Zhu.
And these wealthy households were not fools either. They found another person in the city named Zhu Liangzu.
This Zhu Liangzu was also a militia marshal, and had a similar beginning to Chen Yexian, Deng Yu, Feng Guoyong, Chahan Timur and others.
When the Yuan Dynasty was about to collapse, it released Xiang Yong.
As a result, heads were shaved all over the country, some chose to swear allegiance to the Yuan Dynasty, some chose to join the Red Scarf Army, and some jumped around, whatever was beneficial.
In this chaotic dance of demons and ghosts and monsters, Zhu Liangzu was one of those who was a little bit eccentric.
He chose to become a loyal minister of the Yuan Dynasty. At first, he was active in Lu'an and other places. Due to the rise of Zhu Yuanzhang in Huaixi, he could not stand up, so he had to cross the river. During this period, he fought with the Zhu Jiajun several times, although there were wins and losses.
But Zhu Liangzu cannot change the overall situation.
He could only retreat to Xuancheng, under the hands of Bie Buhua and Yang Zhongying.
Now that the Zhu family's army was attacking and the city was in chaos, Zhu Liangzu was naturally dissatisfied. He gathered his troops and wanted to fight to the death.
At this moment, representatives from several wealthy households approached him.
"General Zhu, don't forget that the thief in Kaicheng has surrendered. Yang Zhongying is also a shameless person. He has colluded with the red thief a long time ago. Now that things have happened, Xuancheng can only rely on you!"
When Zhu Liangzu heard this, he almost fainted. You really think highly of me!
How can I turn things around on my own?
However, Zhu Liangzu was still willing to give it a try, especially when he heard that the wealthy households were willing to contribute money, he immediately cheered up and stood decisively with the wealthy households.
Yang Zhongying came to kill him and bumped into Zhu Liangzu.
In his haste, he was defeated by Zhu Liangzu.
Moreover, Zhu Liangzu was quite brave and shot an arrow through Yang Zhongying's right arm, causing Yang Zhongying to flee in panic and almost died.
As a member of the merit-grabbing contest, I was the first to be eliminated.
Zhu Liangzu showed his majesty and felt that he could be braver, so he immediately led his troops to fight against Chang Yuchun.
As for Zhu Liangzu's ability in fighting, it is undoubtedly revealed here. He can actually fight to a 50-50 level with Chang Yuchun without losing the slightest bit!
Chang Yuchun had always been invincible and invincible, but when he was blocked by such a thing, he flew into a rage and personally led the troops to charge. Zhu Liangzu also showed his prowess and fought Chang Yuchun.
But the matter ended there, because Xu Da led the army and rushed over, instantly surrounding Zhu Liangzu's soldiers and horses, and beside Xu Da, it turned out to be Bei Buhua!
Seeing this scene, Zhu Liangzu was so angry that he almost fell off his horse.
"Bie Buhua, are you still a Mongolian? How could you betray Dayuan?"
Bu Buhua said calmly, "Who is not greedy for life? Who is not willing to sacrifice his life? What's more, he will kill himself by throwing an egg against a stone!"
"You!" Zhu Liangzu was furious, "Shameless! I am so shameless that I, Zhu Liangzu, would rather die than surrender!"
At this moment, those wealthy households appeared, along with Zhu Liangzu's family.
"Reporting to the master of Zhu Jiajun... We have known for a long time that Zhu Liangzu is stubborn and stubborn, so we encouraged him to fight with Yang Zhongying and waste our troops. Now we have sent his family here, please accept it!"
At this moment, Zhu Liangzu really felt the danger of the world?
I bet you all voted?
Am I the only fool?
Zhu Liangzu was still unconvinced, but when his family was arrested, his fighting spirit was half gone, and his men lost their fighting spirit. Coupled with the siege of Xu Da and Chang Yuchun, Zhu Liangzu was eventually defeated and captured.
In less than a day, Xuancheng fell into the hands of Zhu Jiajun due to internal strife.
It's just that their internal strife is a bit strange. In other places, some people may want to fight or surrender, which is why they are in trouble.
But here in Xuancheng, they actually fought with each other because they were trying to get credit!
But when these forces gathered at Zhu's army camp, a fierce fighting began.
This is really sad for those who hear it, and shed tears for those who see it.
The first was Yang Zhongying. One of his arms was still bleeding and his face was pale, but it did not affect his argument at all.
"Bie Buhua, didn't you run away? How dare you take the credit?"
"Bah! I'm here to open the city gate and welcome Master Wang. If you don't believe me, you can ask General Xu to testify!"
Yang Zhongying sneered and said: "Why are you greeting Master Wang? You obviously can't escape, so you pretend to surrender. You dog Tatar, you have a bad conscience!"
"Fart! Fart! I wrote a letter of surrender to Zhu Jiajun a long time ago. I am the one who sincerely surrenders to you. You are all fakes!"
"Isn't it just a letter of surrender? I have one too!" Yang Zhongying argued.
At this time, the wealthy households couldn't stand listening anymore, "Stop arguing, you are all traitors to the Yuan Dynasty, and we are the loyal ministers who are loyal to the Zhu family army!"
"You guys are farting!" Yang Zhongying was anxious, "You paid me to defend Xuancheng, why didn't you tell me?"
"I, we were trying to stabilize you, the Tatar eagle dog... But, you didn't do it either?"
"Bah! I'm not a fool, why should I be your guard dog?"
Yang Zhongying scolded him righteously, but Zhu Liangzu, who was captured, felt that his self-esteem was seriously hurt. I am just a fool. I am really stupid, really!
I only knew that some people surrendered to the Red Thieves, but I never thought that all of you were twenty-five!
I am so wronged!
Zhu Yuanzhang, as long as you give me a chance, I will surrender and let me serve you!
Such a group of loyal ministers and generals of the Yuan Dynasty can get together. It is really a blessing for the Yuan Dynasty, and it is a great blessing!
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Ximeng arrived. Bie Buhua quickly knelt down, and Yang Zhongying endured the pain and prostrated on the ground. The rest of the people also knelt down and did not dare to raise their heads, just waiting for Lao Zhu's verdict.
.
But what was surprising was that Zhu Yuanzhang actually passed them and walked towards the gate of the camp, where there were dozens of Ningguo Road militiamen, and Wu Datou was standing next to him.
Lao Zhu came over and asked: "Wu Datou, why did you let the distinguished guest stand at the gate of the camp? Why don't you go in?"
Wu Datou smiled bitterly, "The superiors, they said that they have a humble status and are not as noble as those people, so they are waiting here..."
Noble?
Don’t you have some misunderstanding about these two words?
Based on their virtue, is it considered noble?
Zhang Ximeng knew the thoughts of the common people very clearly. This group of people included generals of the Yuan Dynasty, marshals of the militia, and celebrities and wealthy households. If you pick anyone at random, they would be much nobler than them, and they would be beyond their reach.
Now even if the Zhu Jiajun surrenders, they will still be divided into three, six, and nine ranks!
Zhang Ximeng took the initiative and smiled and said: "Everyone, you were the first to respond to the Zhu Jiajun and organize the militia. This time we marched here, you transported food and grass and guided the road. You have the greatest credit. It's not like you carried us into Xuancheng.
It’s too much!”
Lao Zhu said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang said it well. It's exactly what we want to say. Don't be polite, everyone. Come in with us, let you wash away the dust, and have a glass of celebratory wine!"
In this way, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Ximeng, pulling several militia leaders, followed by Wu Datou, passed a large group of surrendering nobles and directly entered the Chinese army camp.
Zhu Yuanzhang arranged for everyone to sit down, and as expected, someone brought drinks. Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "We want to ask everyone, whether Wu Baihu's play was good?"
"Okay! Great! We all only wanted to follow Zhu Jiajun after watching that drama. How great!"
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "You guys must want to hear our statement the most. You can tell you that it's not a show! It's true! Zhu Jiajun is here to make the decision for you!"
Lao Zhu's words instantly ignited everyone's emotions!
Zhang Ximeng added: "Equal distribution of land, clearing up unjust cases, and eliminating excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes are all what we are doing, and they are also our unshakable bottom line. I don't think we will choose to give up or make big discounts because of anyone's factors. You can
Don't worry. I will arrange for people to go down soon to check the household registration of the land... All the militiamen are helping to assist in dividing the land. Now we can't mess with the rules. We must be solid and effective to promote land equalization. After this is completed,
, there will be no famine in twenty years!”
Zhang Ximeng and Zhu Yuanzhang treated the common people as honored guests and first explained the land equalization policy to reassure everyone.
"Everyone, let's talk about it. If you have any other requests, we will try our best to help solve them."
Several militia leaders looked at it and asked, "What else do you want?"
"Um... can you let Mr. Wu come to our place to act? Everyone would love to see it!"
When Wu Datou heard this, his head suddenly expanded three times.
His voice is broken. If he continues like this, he may never be able to speak again.
Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "Since everyone likes to watch, there can't be just one opera troupe... Let's do this. You recommend some smart people from the countryside and let them come to study. We not only need to learn opera, but also understand policies and current affairs.
.Every time before acting in the future, I have to tell everyone about it. Only if we all have clear eyes and minds, will we not be deceived by bad people, nor will we believe the nonsense about Zhu Jiajun with red hair and green eyes, right?"
These militiamen nodded frequently, "Yes, this time we finally understand that Zhu Jiajun is different from those people!"
Zhang Ximeng said: "It is indeed different. They have dirty minds and like to scare the people. Now that they met the Zhu Jiajun, they thought that the Zhu Jiajun must be more terrifying and ferocious than them. Otherwise, how could they make so many people willing and obey them?
It belongs to Zhu Jiajun! They simply don’t understand that Zhu Jiajun doesn’t scare the people with his fists...but rather reasons with the people, stands with the big guys, and exchanges sincerity for sincerity! This is the biggest magic weapon for us to be invincible!"
These militia leaders praised in unison and vowed to take these words back with them so that the villagers could listen to them and remember them in their hearts.
After finishing the biggest task, it was the turn of these weirdos.
"Kill if you want!" Zhu Liangzu was the first to speak. Just when everyone thought he was going to be Da Yuan Zhongliang, this one added, "If you don't kill, I am willing to die!"
This immediately made everyone dodge. Does this count as using the most arrogant tone and saying the most cowardly words?
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered: "You have served Yuan Ting for so long, how can you write it off? We will send people to investigate thoroughly. If you do many evil things, God will not forgive you!"
Zhu Liangzu Nuonuo agreed, and Lao Zhu asked people to send Zhu Liangzu to the field camp to temporarily clear up wasteland and farm, waiting for his death. Zhu Liangzu was still like this, and the rest of the group was even more frightened, and cold sweat flowed down his temples...
