Five hundred and seventieth chapters Dadu merit camp
"First of all, you are not an official official of the Ming Dynasty after all. I can only grant you the title of consultant. And I can't give you a salary. At most, I can only have a small allowance. Are you willing?" Zhang Ximeng said with a smile.
First, Timur almost laughed out loud. What kind of salary and official position do you want... "Prime Minister Zhang, I am willing to donate all my family property, and you can let me borrow money! As long as I can go to a prisoner of war camp, I,
And eight generations of our family’s ancestors are grateful to you!”
Zhang Ximeng chuckled, "Are you so anxious because you want revenge?"
"Of course... no!" Timur shook his head like a rattle, "I just want to serve the Ming Dynasty. Really, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty and Prime Minister Zhang treated me well and allowed me to gain a new life. I
Thank you so much!" At this point, Timur's eyes were still red.
Zhang Ximeng said: "What you said is to the point. What we hope is that everyone can regain a new life and break away from the past lifestyle of being domineering, bossing around, knocking bones and sucking marrow. From now on, they can support themselves and become useful people. This
This is also our attitude towards all prisoners. I hope you can keep it in mind. If you forget...someone will remove you from your advisory status at any time and at any time. Do you understand what I mean?"
Timur was stunned for a long time. His heart was filled with ups and downs, and finally he could only say: "Xiang Zhang, I, I understand!"
Zhang Ximeng nodded and said with a smile: "Actually, this matter is also a practice for you. I am not saying that you should let go of your hatred and retaliate with kindness... I hope you can think more clearly. You have just passed your forties now. In the future,
There are endless possibilities. Break out of the current rut and I have high hopes for you."
First, Timur carefully chewed on Zhang Ximeng's words. Although he may not necessarily understand them all, he nodded vigorously and remembered them in his heart.
As soon as he turned around and came out of Zhang Ximeng's place, he thought about it for a while and was overjoyed!
In any case, he is now a consultant, and those who framed him, hated him, and said he was a traitor to the Yuan Dynasty will soon fall into his hands.
How pitiful!
Revenge at last!
The first thing Timur thought of was the group of old friends who were still in Yingtian...such as Xuexue, Nahachu, Fushou, and Tujian. He quickly wrote to them and asked them to come over and participate in the grand event.
I am a consultant, but they are also consultants, or consultants!
By the way, there is also Gong Bosui. It is best to let him come over. Let's all see what kind of virtue the princes of the Yuan Dynasty had!
Timur began to get busy first. He first wrote letters, and then personally selected a site to build this prisoner of war camp.
First of all, it definitely can’t be placed in a metropolitan city. Not only does it occupy an area, but it will also affect your ability to change your mind. Secondly, it can’t be too far away. It’s not good to be far away from the fireworks of the world.
In addition, this place must be safe and secure, and there is no way to easily escape. These guys are always thinking about escaping. They must be unable to fly without wings.
Furthermore, we must make sure that the house is warm, windproof, clean and hygienic, otherwise some people will be in poor health, freeze or fall ill, which will be bad.
It has to be said that Timur was really experienced first. He made a big circle and chose the location outside Qihua Gate. It was leaning against the city wall on one side. The tall and solid city wall was naturally not easy to break through.
Moreover, there are soldiers constantly patrolling the city walls. It is also very good for them to serve as guards part-time.
First, Timur encircled a total area of more than 300 acres, which was very wide.
It is leaning against the city wall on one side and the moat on the other. Now it is even more difficult to fly.
Then comes the civil construction, cleaning, paving the floor with sand, laying a layer of Sanhe soil on top, and then laying bricks to ensure it is strong. The buildings above are also very particular. They must use thick brick walls, and the walls alone need to be two feet long.
Thick, hollow to keep warm, there is floor heating inside, so it won't freeze.
Even the location of the kitchen and the latrine must be separated.
He learned this from Zhang Ximeng.
In the Yuan army, they liked to put the latrine and the kitchen together, or there was no latrine at all, just a simple circle.
It is easy to do this. Rotten vegetable leaves, kitchen waste, etc. can be thrown directly into the latrine. But the problem is that not only does the smell smell bad, but over time, the groundwater will also be polluted, and then the soldiers will easily get sick, including severe dysentery.
If it becomes popular, it can even cause hundreds or thousands of attrition.
This kind of thing must not happen. The kitchen and the latrine should be separated, bathrooms should be set up, and a few wells should be dug.
By the way, they also need to encircle an area outside the city as farmland and vegetable gardens, and let them pick manure for farming... First, the busier Timur is, the happier he is, and his lips are grinning.
The important civil and military ministers of the Yuan Dynasty, as well as the royal family members, worked hard here, growing and eating their own food... The picture should not be too beautiful, it is impossible to imagine it.
Just as he was planning a bright future, the first batch of prisoners had arrived.
The Prime Minister Yesu, and more than twenty important officials of the Yuan Dynasty, escorted by soldiers, wandered over.
First, Timur stood at the gate of the camp, with his hands behind his back, looking at the group of people, and then looking up at the sky. After a long time, he said calmly: "Why are you here so late?"
The group of people were stunned. The voice was so familiar. They quickly rubbed their eyes and then they recognized it. It turned out to be you!
"You, you betrayed the Yuan Dynasty, you are shameless!"
First, Timur sneered, "Stop talking nonsense, don't you bother me! With all this talk, it's Emperor Yuan who abandoned the country and ignored it. He still wants to kill me, so he can't just let me kill him!"
"If you want me to die, I have to die!" Yesu said through gritted teeth, "Don't even think about making excuses!"
"Jun? What kind of king? You are stupid and incompetent, destroying the Great Wall, squeezing the people, breaking the bones and sucking out the marrow? Such a king should listen to him? Besides, the king wants his ministers to die. This is the Confucian principle. Don't you look down on poor scholars? What?
When I became a disciple of Confucius and Mencius, why didn’t I know?”
Yesu was left speechless by the question. At this moment, another group of people came. They were not newcomers, but the old people captured earlier... Prime Minister Qingtong, Zhang Kangbo, Manchuan and others... The big guys lined up
A neat team, wearing short jackets made of dark coarse cloth, carrying hoes and shovels, and accompanied by soldiers, walked towards this side.
The two sides also recognized each other as they got closer.
How to describe it?
It's a little embarrassing!
Embarrassingly, Yesu and the others ran away with the iron pot, leaving Qingtong and others behind to take the blame.
However, Qingtong and his gang did not die for the country. Instead, they fell into the hands of the Ming Dynasty and became prisoners.
Everyone has a little bit of guilt in their hearts, but the two of them met together.
"Treacherous minister!"
"Skeleton!"
Qingtong and the others scolded Yesu for being evildoers who encouraged the emperor to abandon the country.
Ye quickly scolded Qingtong for being a weakling who surrendered to the enemy.
Do you dare to scold me?
Qingtong raised the shovel in his hand and looked at the people behind him, "Brothers, let's copy this guy."
superior!
Kill these beasts!
Yesu and the others are also anxious, the worst they can do is fight to the death, and they don’t want to live anyway!
"Be honest with me!"
First, Timur was so angry that he yelled, "Look at your virtues! You have reached this point, and you are still like an old rooster, and you will fight among yourself! The fall of the Yuan Dynasty is really not unjust! With ministers like you, national security can be
Not destroyed? The family is safe and undefeated?"
The two groups were scolded until their faces turned red, but they soon targeted Tamerlane first.
"We are shameless! But we are much better than those white-eyed wolves who surrendered to the Ming Dynasty early and are willing to be the minions of hawks and dogs!"
Ye Xian Timur laughed loudly, "You call me a white-eyed wolf? You're not even close! I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. Qingtong, you go in first and build temporary houses for them to live in. Yesu, you guys
Go wash up, peel off the skin on your body, put on new clothes, and go!"
Qingtong's eyes widened and he asked them to build a residence for Yesu and others. What was he thinking?
"What? You don't like to do it? Well, if you don't like to do it, go clean the toilets, and clean a thousand toilets first!"
Qingtong's heart was trembling. Behind him, Huai Wang Timur Buhua sighed helplessly, "People have to bow their heads under the low eaves!"
Qingtong burst into tears and could only lament continuously.
They were about to leave when another group of prisoners arrived.
The staff this time is a bit complicated, there are men, women, and a few that are neither men nor women.
Queen Qi, the concubine in the palace, Pu Buhua and other eunuchs, and a descendant of the clan.
But when the group of people delivered it, everyone saw Pu Buhua for the first time, and they all gnashed their teeth!
Especially Yesu, who said angrily: "Why is this eunuch here? Kill him! Kill him quickly!"
Qingtong also shouted, "Yes, he has done many evil things, and countless people have been killed by him. His sins are so serious that heaven and earth will not tolerate him!"
Pu Buhua never expected that he would not die in the hands of the Ming army, but would be killed by these guys!
He was anxious, "Spare your life! Spare your life! I know their scandals, and I am willing to join the Ming Dynasty! Please, please spare my slave's life!"
Pu Buhua cried and begged on the ground, but she heard a faint voice, "Look up and see, who am I?"
Pu Buhua was stunned, her heart was pounding wildly, and after a long while she dared to slowly raise her head, just in time to see Timur's face... He opened his mouth wide in horror, rubbed his eyes, and finally recognized it clearly.
"Why is it you!"
With a sigh, he was so frightened that he fainted!
Yesu immediately shouted: "Let's go to Timur first, he has also harmed your brother, kill him!"
Timur gritted his teeth first, "Of course I want to kill him! But it would be too easy for him to die like this. He must be punished according to the law! Kill him clearly!"
Yesu, Qingtong and others looked at each other and finally nodded, "First of all, Timur, you did a pretty good job!"
Timur also sneered and said: "Just watch! Where are you going now? There are more fun things waiting for you later! Our merit camp is indispensable for having fun!"
"Gongde camp? What do you mean?"
Timur also smiled and said: "This is what I discussed with Prime Minister Zhang. In the future, you people will do merit here and atone for your sins, so it is called merit camp! Just wait, the fish behind will get fatter and fatter."
of!"
Yesu was horrified and said in astonishment: "What do you mean? Could it be your Majesty?"
