Chapter 57 The Prestige

Wanhu Yang Zhen was surrounded by a group of subordinates and went to see the man with the high official position of ninth husband!

Yang Zhen was very aware of the cowardice and cowardice of Lao Zhang of Zhiyuan. In order to bribe the people of Lupai village, he sent precious grains, but all of them were swallowed by the red scarf.

None of the soldiers responsible for escorting him came back, which was like a slap on Lao Zhang's mouth.

But even so, Lao Zhang did not have the courage to send troops.

From this moment on, Yang Zhen knew it was over!

Without spirit, everything is ruined.

The next step is to wait for when to die.

But Yang Zhen didn't want to die, he wanted to find a way out.

It's just that this road makes it extremely difficult for him to take it... He belongs to a wealthy family, the other party is a begging monk, he is a member of the imperial court, and the other party is just a rebel captain.

With such a huge disparity in status, how could you ask him to put down his shame and seek refuge with Zhu Yuanzhang?

Yang Zhen pretended to be dead, but as the land was divided, news continued to spread that some relatives who were near Lupai Village secretly ran away, intending to get a share of the land and become a stable farmer.

Later, dozens, hundreds, or even hundreds of people fled... The order in Lupai Village completely collapsed.

As a member of the Ten Thousand Households, he could not restrain the people below him. Starting from ordinary soldiers, there were people who were constantly connecting with each other. In their hands, there were concise and concise ways to divide the land.

Those soldiers who were slightly literate read aloud and explained to others.

Whenever these are mentioned, everyone dances and dances, as if drinking fine wine or listening to fairy music.

Several officers found out, confiscated the paper, and beat the soldiers... But soon the officers discovered that wherever they went, they were all staring at them. The soldiers stared at them angrily, pressing their hands on the handles of their knives, as if they were ready at any time.

To kill with a knife.

There is no need to be afraid of one or two soldiers, but 70% to 80% of people are like this, and it will cost them their lives!

Therefore, when the officers later saw the soldiers reading out the land allocation method, they simply stayed away for fear of punishing the soldiers again and triggering a mutiny.

Anyway, as long as I close my eyes, the world will lose its brightness.

After a few days, hundreds of soldiers were ready, waiting for General Zhu to arrive.

When Lao Zhu appeared, there was no need to put any effort into attacking. The gate was opened, the suspension bridge was lowered, torches were lit, and soldiers even brought wine.

General Zhu only needs to give everyone an order, and we can lift Hengjian Mountain!

In this warm atmosphere, Yang Zhen arrived in front of Zhu Yuanzhang's horse. He was embarrassed, lowered his head, but secretly glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang.

I am a member of Wanhu, a general of the Yuan army.

I have given you Hengjian Mountain. You should express your gratitude for such a great contribution!

Get off your horse quickly and act like a polite corporal!

It's a pity that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't move at all, not even smiling.

With no choice, Yang Zhen had no choice but to dismount by himself.

He took two steps and wanted to bow and clasp his fists, but he was worried about being blamed, so he raised his hands halfway and knelt down with his legs again.

"I would like to welcome General Zhu!"

Lao Zhu looked at him, still not smiling at all.

"Your name is Yang Zhen?"

"yes!"

Lao Zhu paused and said, "If you come here like this, we can't count you as an uprising, only as a surrender! How to deal with it will be discussed after the battle is over!"

After saying this, Lao Zhu mobilized his war horses, passed Yang Zhen, and rushed directly into the camp, leaving only a confused Yang Zhen!

What number is this?

He clearly has such a high status and has made great achievements, so why do he treat himself like this?

Isn't that too cold?

When Yang Zhen was furious, he found a young man riding a horse with a smile, looking down at him.

"Yang Zhen, let's see what you mean. Do you think the master is unfair? Is he treating the hero lightly?"

Yang Zhen's face looked ugly. He got up from the ground, lowered his head, and sighed for a while: "How dare you! I am a defeated general, so I dare not speak bravely!"

Zhang Ximeng smiled faintly, "My lord, you are the most fair in doing things. Ask yourself, are you sincerely surrendering, or are you forced to do so? Are you being held hostage by your subordinates?"

"This..." Yang Zhen's face turned a little ugly, and it was really uncomfortable for someone to expose him in person.

After a while, Yang Zhenyi became disheartened and sighed: "I have no courage and no plan. I am a useless person. I just want to return to my hometown and become a rich man. I hope everything will be fulfilled."

Zhang Ximeng looked at him with a smile on his face, "Yes, I will naturally grant you this wish."

"Thank you very much!" Yang Zhen gritted his teeth and said this. If he had known this, he would not have opened the door even if he fought to the end!

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ximeng refused to let him go, and added with a smile, "Yang Wanhu, you can go back now, but remember to tell your family in Chuzhou and prepare to divide the fields. I heard that your Yang family is also a big family.

, it is inevitable that we have made mistakes in the past. But as long as we sincerely change our ways and are willing to cooperate with the division of land, we can still start a new life."

After saying this, Yang Zhen's brows stood up and he could no longer hold his nerve.

He was really mad.

What is this?

His Baba opened the door without any credit, but with hard work. In the end, even if he had no credit, he still had to divide their family's land?

Yang Zhen gritted his teeth, "Since ancient times, when I heard that the wise men surrendered, I would greet each other and treat each other with courtesy. This is the magnanimity that can achieve great things. If you fail to live up to expectations and chill people's hearts, even if you gain power for a while, I'm afraid it will end in misery.

!”

Zhang Ximeng laughed and said, "Did Yang Wanhu curse us so that we would not end well?"

"I don't dare! I'm just telling you my superficial opinions."

Zhang Ximeng said calmly: "It is indeed not profound, it is very shallow! You regard yourself as a character and think that we will regard you as a treasure and hold you up to the sky? I'm sorry, you were just forced to this step, really open the camp and stand up

It is tens of thousands of ordinary soldiers who have made great contributions. They are the real heroes!"

Yang Zhen gritted his teeth again and couldn't help snorting, feeling extremely contemptuous in his heart.

What a bunch of shallow and ignorant thieves, you don't appease thousands of famous families, but instead treat some unimportant soldiers as guests?

No matter how nice you are to these people, what will happen?

After all, doesn’t it still have to rely on us to clean up the situation?

It's a shame that these red scarf thieves can't recognize people. I should have made plans early. If I could escape and seek refuge with others, or return home and raise a local warrior, that would be a way out...

While Yang Zhen was thinking, Zhu Yuanzhang had already led his men to break through the Hengjian Mountain Dazhai.

To say it was a breakthrough is not rigorous.

It should be regarded as an armed rapid march. Wherever Zhu Yuanzhang went, there were surrendered soldiers clearing the way, and people continued to join. The team was like a snowball, growing stronger and stronger, so that it was unrivaled.

Zhiyuan Lao Zhang woke up from his sleep, hurriedly pushed away the two young girls who were still sleeping, and ran out wearing simple clothes.

As a result, hundreds of Mongolian soldiers came face to face. They were also in a panic. When they saw Lao Zhang, they immediately gathered around.

"Sir, the red scarf thief is coming. Run with us!"

Lao Zhang grabbed the life-saving straw, nodded quickly, followed the group on the horse, and fled in a hurry.

In the huge Hengjian Mountain, Lao Zhang prepared eighteen camps.

It doesn't matter if one village is broken down, there are still spare ones.

He directed the soldiers to run to the second camp, and what he saw was the closed gate of the camp and the soldiers who were waiting in formation.

"Open the door quickly! I am your Lord President!"

Lao Zhang shouted three times in a row, but no one at the village gate responded. He just raised a red flag, as warm as fire.

"We have surrendered to the Red Scarf Army! You can capture us without any help!"

"That's right, we have abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, and will no longer serve the dog Tatars!"

Zhiyuan Lao Zhang was so angry that he wanted to explode, but there was nothing he could do. He quickly led the people to escape. This was the case for two consecutive villages, especially the second village. He fired arrows at them, and some people shouted: "Catch the old man."

Zhang, asked General Zhu for credit.

By now, Lao Zhang was completely out of his mind and completely lost his sense of place.

"Where to run? Where to go?"

He was distraught and asked his men.

But these Mongolian cavalry had strange expressions. They looked at Lao Zhang one by one, as if they saw hope.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang had already commanded his troops to pursue him. Fei Ju, Hua Yun, the Wu brothers, and others divided into more than a dozen groups and took over the camp. Then, under the guidance of the surrendering soldiers, they attacked from all directions.

Surrounded.

Lao Zhang has no way out!

At this moment, a Mongolian man came forward.

"The red scarf opposite! Is that General Zhu? The Mongols want to surrender, are you willing?"

Mongolia?

Isn’t that Yuan Tatar?

It deserves to be killed!

Zhu Yuanzhang said loudly: "You are Mongolian nobles, have you ever killed ordinary people?"

"No! We are just Mongols who were forced to move to the Central Plains! The court did not treat us well. We suffered a disaster and couldn't survive, so we had to join the army. Fortunately, we met Lao Zhang of the Zhiyuan, and we didn't fight a single battle.

Pass!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "We raised the army to settle accounts with the Yuan Dynasty's dog Tatars! Since you have never done anything harmful to nature, we can't kill you, but we can't treat you preferentially. You must change your name to Chinese and follow the Han name."

Family customs. According to the rules, we will allocate fields to you so that you can support your family!"

"really?"

“Let’s keep our word!”

"Then, what about our meritorious service?"

"Making meritorious service will naturally lead to rewards!"

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, a dozen Mongolian men rushed up, grabbed Lao Zhang from his horse, tied him up by his hands and feet, and sent him to Zhu Yuanzhang!

"General, please accept it!"

This general who was the magistrate of the Yuan Dynasty and had tens of thousands of people was captured by a group of ordinary Mongolian soldiers and presented to Zhu Yuanzhang as a trophy.

It really couldn't be more reasonable.

Hengjian Mountain is broken!

By the way, Dingyuan County also lost its defense forces. Zhu Yuanzhang finally captured the first city since his independent development!
