"What we want to overthrow is the Yuan Ting Dog Tatars... What is the Yuan Ting Dog Tatars? We need to break it down and look at it. The Yuan Ting is the bastard court in most cities now, as well as corrupt officials from all over the country, and the wealthy gentry who are dependent on the Yuan Ting.
As for the Dog Tartars, to put it bluntly, they are those Mongolians and Semu people who are superior to others and wantonly bully and kill the common people. They also include those barbarians who bully the weak and plunder everywhere."
"Besides that, ordinary Mongolians who do not bully the common people or do evil things, and are willing to accept the status of kings will naturally be treated well. If someone bullies you or engages in discriminatory behavior, you can report it truthfully and we will deal with it seriously."
Zhang Ximeng replaced Zhu Yuanzhang and explained the military policy clearly.
These Mongolian soldiers looked at each other, and one of them bravely said: "Can you divide the fields among us?"
"No problem." Zhang Ximeng said: "My lord has already said it, and I will tell everyone that according to the current situation, if you join the army, each of you will be allocated six acres of ration land and five acres of transfer land... The current problem
This is a mulberry field. If you want to raise livestock, I don’t have any pasture for you.”
"No, no need!" The Mongolian man waved his hands hurriedly, "Sir, we have been in the Central Plains for many years, and we know how to farm. Speaking of which, in the first few years, when we couldn't survive, we even went to carry big bags for the landlords' families. Those Han people
You can’t even do it to me!”
Zhang Ximeng looked at this guy's burly physique and had nothing to say. After all, his arms were thicker than his thighs.
"In this case, I will register you first, and then accept the reorganization. Once you are officially registered as a military official, I will allocate your fields to you. Within half a month, everything will be done for you!"
Zhang Ximeng explained clearly clearly. The Mongolian men looked at each other, knelt down and shouted long live. Some of them even cried.
It's not easy.
Someone also told Zhang Ximeng that even though they were Mongolians, they didn't live much better. It's just that some people used their Mongolian status to bully ordinary Han people and treat them like dogs!
"Sir, follow, follow General Zhu, we can finally be one person!"
Zhang Ximeng was also quite shocked and nodded repeatedly, "It's good if you guys can think about this clearly. Our team is not to conquer the world for the Han people, nor is it to kill all the Mongols, but to enable the poorest people to survive
, and live well! Please keep this in mind. In the military, we are also brothers who love each other, fighting side by side, and entrusting us with life and death. I believe you will realize this soon. Also,
I want everyone to understand why our team has hope and why it can defeat powerful enemies... It's not that we have many soldiers and generals, it's not that we are fierce and cruel, it's because we are reasonable and what we do is
Yes, all the poor people in the world will support us. Every time we help a poor person, our strength will become stronger. Most of the emperors only know how to break bones and suck out marrow and plunder. Everyone in the world hates him. Please think about it, who can
Win the final victory?”
Zhang Ximeng talked eloquently with these Mongolian soldiers and explained the truth.
This is not Zhang Ximeng’s whim, but Lao Zhu’s development to this day, and we must pay attention to this.
As mentioned before, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted his generals to study and understand the truth.
There are now tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and most of the soldiers must understand what they are doing and what they are fighting for... Although this is a huge project, once it is completed, no one can defeat them.
It can even solve problems such as arrogant soldiers and powerful generals.
Why are there arrogant soldiers?
It’s not just that some people rely on their own merits, are unscrupulous, lawless, and have no respect.
If the truth can be explained clearly and they can agree with it from the bottom of their hearts, will these people still bully the people and do evil? Maybe, but the number will definitely be greatly reduced.
Such a huge project is placed on these Mongolian soldiers, starting from them!
An inventory of the entire Hengjian Mountain revealed a total of 30,000 young men and more than 60,000 dependents, almost 100,000 people.
The number of people under Lao Zhu's control suddenly tripled.
Among them were nearly two thousand Mongolian soldiers, who were selected and used as cavalry. They were indeed more familiar with life on horseback than the Han people, and were more adapted to cavalry combat.
The cavalry was a high-level unit under Zhu Yuanzhang. Although there was no tilt in terms of field distribution, they had one more set of uniforms than the infantry and were given thick cloaks. In addition, their food standards were also the highest in the army.
With this set in place, the less than two thousand Mongolian cavalry completely surrendered and were temporarily led by Hua Yun, becoming the first trump card in Zhu Yuanzhang's hand.
In all the life-and-death battles that followed, this cavalry team was never absent. In the decisive battle at Hongdu, their commander lost his head and was still fighting. Of the two thousand soldiers, less than five hundred were alive...
After annexing the soldiers and horses in Hengjian Mountain, Zhu Yuanzhang prepared to move to Dingyuan. The reason why it was called moving was because there was really no force that could stop him.
"Sir, we have thought about it and decided to transfer all the soldiers and horses from Linhuai and Huaiyuan. It is time for Xu Da to come back. He has many ideas and can help us with our troops." Zhu Yuanzhang considered and said: "We are here.
Things are getting better and better, but we are a little worried. What if the imperial court sends a large army to attack us? After all, the first rafters will die first."
When Zhu Yuanzhang said this, he added: "Li Shanchang told us that the Yuan army is powerful and has captured Dingyuan. Now that we have a place to stay, we should temporarily restrain our minions to avoid being besieged by the Yuan army. What do you think, sir?"
Zhang Ximeng thought for a while and said with a smile: "I dare not say that Mr. Li is wrong. It is good to play slowly and steadily. It's just that although Yuan Ting has many soldiers and horses, they don't dare to dispatch them easily... Lord, do you know why?"
"It's for food and grass." Zhu Yuanzhang said solemnly: "The stronger a man is, the more he eats. We understand this!"
Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "My lord is wise, Zhang Shicheng occupied Gaoyou and cut off the canal. There has been news for a long time that the imperial court will send a large army to conquer... But now it has been several months, and the imperial court still cannot send troops. I dare
It is asserted that even in a few months, it still won't work. Yuan Ting does still have the power of a thunder blow, but the force of this blow may fall on Zhang Shicheng, Liu Futong, or Xu Shouhui.
It will not fall on the master alone!"
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a while, shook his head and sighed: "Yes, why is our power still too small? It is important to occupy more territory first, and strengthen our strength. There is no need to be timid, like a little daughter-in-law!"
Zhang Ximeng nodded, "My lord, please tell me one more thing, my lord's opponent in the future may not be Yuan Ting!"
Zhang Ximeng didn't say much, and Zhu Yuanzhang didn't ask too much, but the monarch and his ministers already understood it tacitly... The heroes of Haozhou were the epitome of all the Red Scarf Army. Sooner or later, they had to kill each other fiercely to distinguish the male and female.
After Lao Zhu and Zhang Ximeng talked, they set the tone, but they didn't expect that Yuan Ting really noticed them and even mobilized troops!
Who is so lucky to have shouldered such an important task?
Naturally, he is the captain of the transportation brigade, General Cheri Buhua.
He boasted that he had 50,000 soldiers, and he won a great victory by sending out thousands of pieces of armor. He was like the pillar of Huaixi and the Great Yuan Zhongliang. Who else could he send if not him?
After receiving this order, Cheribuhua looked at it carefully for a long time. He felt that the court had some misunderstanding about him.
Can I admit that I lied?
Don't let me die?
I really don’t know if they can spare me this time?
If you don’t know, then ask someone!
Cheribuhua invited Xu Da... the magic came to reality.
"General Xu, look at this... can you help us?"
Xu Da frowned, "Help defeat us?"
Cheribuhua waved her hands quickly, "No, no! I mean you pretend to be defeated... let's, let's put on another show."
Xu Da thought for a while, "Acting is okay, but there has to be a price!"
Cheri stopped grinning. The last time he gave away thousands of armors and thousands of war horses, and even stripped him naked, he almost couldn't survive. How much will he pay this time?
Cheribuhua thought for a moment and suddenly asked: "Brother Xu, I heard that someone helped you pick your name?"
Xu Da said with a sullen face: "You want to spy on secrets?"
"No, no... I just want to ask and give it to you. As long as I have it here, I will give it to you with both hands!"
Xu Da thought for a while and said: "Sir, he loves reading. When he wins someone else and collects the spoils, he only wants books and pictures."
"Oh! Then you will listen to him when you are in charge?"
Xu Da nodded, "Follow your words!"
"That would be great!"
Cheli Buhua was happy. He quickly ordered to search for books. He rummaged through the warehouse and found a lot of books in the corner, and then sent them to Xu Da... Xu Da didn't have anything to say, so he hurriedly gave them to Xu Da overnight.
Zhang Ximeng sent it.
With this gift, I guess we can discuss it and the play will be finalized.
Cheri Buhua had a beautiful thought, and when Zhang Ximeng got these books, he looked through them carefully. He didn't pay attention at first, but he saw one with a stamp on it...Yunzhuang Zang!
Isn't this their family's collection of books? My father took it with him when we went south together.
