Seeing Zhu Zhi'e's figure, Zhu Shenxuan was stunned. When he saw Chang Yu, his eyes suddenly lit up. Cai Maode and other officials were also a little surprised. They just wanted to salute him, but saw Chang Yu wink.
Knowing that he didn't want to reveal his identity, everyone just nodded slightly.
"I heard that you were back early in the morning. I thought I would look for you later, but unexpectedly you came. What is the situation in the south?" The safety of Taiyuan is related to the rise and fall of the Jin Dynasty. Zhu Shenxuan was very concerned about it and dragged Chang Yu into it.
He asked quietly to the side.
"Delay the bandits temporarily," Chang Yu responded casually. He was more concerned about the results of Zhu Shenxuan's charity dinner?
"We raised 500,000 yuan in silver and 200,000 shi in grain. I have dragged all the famous officials, gentry, and wealthy people in the city." Zhu Shenxuan looked at Chang Yu as if he was asking for credit: "You asked me to do this.
Yes, I have done everything I can do, and then it depends on how the factory owner shows his power."
Good guy, Chang Yu was a little surprised. In his opinion, being able to raise 100,000 taels was pretty good, and being able to raise 50,000 dan for food was considered an unexpected blessing. Unexpectedly, Zhu Shenxuan gave him a super gift package.
"It's unexpected. I used a trump card to achieve such a harvest." Zhu Shenxuan looked proud.
What's the trump card? Chang Yu was curious.
"Seal the city gate, only allowed in, not out!"
Chang Yu suddenly realized that they were indeed vicious. Historically, when the bandits marched eastward, wherever they went, most of the wealthy officials and gentry in the city immediately fled north after hearing the news, or directly sneaked into the mountains.
Zhu Shenxuan's move to seal the city is a cruel move. If I don't leave, you can't leave either. If I die, you will be buried with me. No wonder these rich people are so generous. They have no choice but to defend the city. Everyone will die.
!
Awesome! Chang Yu gave Zhu Shenxuan a thumbs up!
"Now that we have money, food, and soldiers, if we still can't defend Taiyuan City, we'll be really useless!"
Zhu Shenxuan was immediately overjoyed: "You are 100% sure."
No! Chang Yu shook his head,
Zhu Shenxuan was startled: "Did you just say..."
"What I just meant is that everything is ready and we can let go, but whether we can hold on depends on the morale of the military. Soldiers are willing to go through life and death, and only if they dare to kill and fight can they be fully confident." Chang Yu said and sighed: "You have the morale of the military now.
I also know it.”
Zhu Shenxuan's face suddenly turned gloomy. Of course he knew the Ming Dynasty's current military morale. Most of the soldiers were just dawdling, and few were willing to fight. Once they started fighting, they would surrender if they could, and run if they could.
Someone who is willing to sacrifice his life.
"Then, then, do you have any good ideas?"
Chang Yu smiled bitterly: "What is a good idea? Now we only have one hand of silver and one hand of sword. Those who obey are rewarded and those who are disobedient are cut off. A two-pronged approach should be effective."
Zhu Shenxuan nodded slightly: "Fortunately, I still have a hand of silver. If there is no silver and only a knife is useless," he said.
"Sir, Mr. Factory Master, if ordinary people have something to say, can they express it?"
Chang Yu and Zhu Shenxuan were talking to the side, and Cai Maode and others were not far away. Everyone could hear the conversation between the two, but no one interrupted. At this time, someone interrupted, and it turned out to be the shepherd who had just come from Luliang Valley.
Yu Chenglong.
"Brother Yu, just say it," Chang Yu said with his fists in his hands. Yu Chenglong had no official position at this time and was actually just a commoner. However, Chang Yu respected him and was respectful in his words and deeds. This is why other officials did not dare to look down on Yu.
The reason for Jackie Chan.
"Your Majesty, your words are serious."
In fact, Yu Chenglong never knew what Chang Yu, the powerful eunuch, liked about him. To be honest, he, like other literati, also had great prejudice against eunuchs. This was a kind of natural hostility between literati and eunuchs, but he
I was extremely conflicted about Chang Yu in my heart and couldn't hate him at all.
These days, he has heard a lot of legends about Chang Yu. Even Cai Maode, a veteran natural enemy, praised Chang Yu highly. Although he thought Chang Yu was young and behaved strangely, he deeply felt that this person had
Those legendary supervisors are very different, so I feel vaguely close to Chang Yu.
"Sir, since we can use extraordinary methods to stabilize the people's morale, why can't we use the same method to stabilize the military's morale?" Yu Chenglong's gentle words made everyone present suddenly enlightened!
Yes, the traitor army spreads rumors and kills innocent people indiscriminately to stabilize the people's morale. Why can't the traitor army spread rumors and pretend to recruit surrender, but actually massacre the surrendered troops to stabilize and unite the morale of the army?
Chang Yu slapped his head hard, turned around and said to a follower beside him: "Go and find General Ying and ask him to discuss matters at the top of the city."
"Brother Yu, in the battle of Taiyuan, I will remember you for your contribution!"
Chang Yu looked at Yu Chenglong and gave him a heavy fist.
Yu Chenglong smiled silently and returned the gift.
"The plan is a good plan, but it may not be easy to implement. It is best to have practical examples," Cai Maode said softly at this time.
Chang Yu fell into deep thought.
Soldiers are all veterans, they are not as stupid and naive as the common people, who just believe a rumor. That requires solid evidence to speak for itself.
If few people believe it without concrete evidence, how can we make the soldiers believe that the rebels massacred the surrendered soldiers?
"Mr. Factory Lord, come to Jiaocheng to report, Chief Zhou asked you to come back as soon as possible."
At this time, several Jinyi guards hurried over and whispered to Chang Yu.
Everyone's eyebrows were furrowed. Jiaocheng was at the forefront and separated from the rebel army. To them, any movement was like a rumbling noise.
"What's the matter?" Chang Yu's heart also jumped.
"The bandit army is raiding Qi County in the east and killing three hundred of my soldiers!" Jin Yiwei said in a low voice.
Shit! Chang Yu was immediately stunned. He actually did something within two days of the promise! There must be something fishy in this.
Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in Chang Yu's heart, as if he had caught something, and he suddenly smiled. Everyone was inexplicable.
"I'll give them what they want. Really, they're here!"
Then he said to Cai Maode: "Mr. Cai, get ready and go to Jiaocheng immediately." Without waiting for Cai Maode's reaction, he hugged his fists towards Zhu Shenxuan and others: "Everyone, perform your duties, do your job well, and do your best.
Welcome the coming storm."
Everyone's expressions turned aside, knowing what he meant. What was supposed to come was finally coming.
After Chang Yu finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. Suddenly he glanced at Zhu Zhi'e next to him and smiled, "Would the princess take you to the front line to play?"
Ahem, cough, cough, Zhu Zhi'e suddenly lowered her head and turned red with embarrassment. This guy is so shameless, in front of so many people...
Chang Yu chuckled and ran away quickly, because he felt a pair of sharp arrow-like eyes piercing him. Is Zhu Shenxuan jealous? Hahaha!
After discussing with senior generals such as Chang Yu and Ying Shisheng on the South Gate Tower for more than half an hour, they quickly left the city with a few followers.
At this time, Cai Maode's carriage had just arrived at the city gate. He was so thin and frail that he could not bear the pain of riding a horse, so he could only ride in a carriage.
Chang Yu asked him to go to the front line. Although he was puzzled, he agreed. In addition to Chang Yu being the top leader in Taiyuan City and being able to order the whole city, he was also a very responsible governor. Going to the front line was not his first priority.
Once, he immediately gave some instructions to his subordinates, went home, packed up, prepared a carriage, and left the city.
