Chapter 34 Zhu Yuanzhangs four chapters of agreement!
"What you said Qiwu makes sense, we really think highly of them." Zhu Yuanzhang was still a little unwilling.
If a good rebel army is not restrained by military law, wouldn't it harm the people and ruin its reputation?
"Brother, there is actually another reason, but they didn't say it." Zhu Han said.
"What's the reason?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked immediately.
"Brother, I see that Guo Zixing, Sun Deya and others are very motivated. We attacked Haozhou too quickly and didn't give them a chance to show their faces. They are all holding back their energy!" Zhu Han said with a smile.
During the conversation just now, he had been observing from the side, and it was easy to see some situations by observing the details.
Guo Zixing, Sun Deya and others should have cooperated internally and externally, and achieved great success in capturing Haozhou City, thereby gaining more say.
Well now, all the hard work of conquering Haozhou was left to Zhu Yuanzhang alone.
Guo Zixing, Sun Deya and the others just killed a few small fish and shrimps without unleashing their talents. The great achievements of Haozhou were also taken away by Zhu Yuanzhang.
"If they don't accept it, they are really getting an advantage and being obedient. If we hadn't destroyed the city, even if they raised troops in the city, there would have been many casualties!" Zhu Yuanzhang said dissatisfied.
"Brother, you can see that they are not very generous. This will save them face and make it easier to command when guarding Haozhou." Zhu Han said.
The next few days.
After dividing the territory of Haozhou with Guo Zixing, Sun Deya and others, they immediately began to search and liquidate the Mongolian spies from house to house in the territory.
They are said to be Mongolian spies. In fact, most of the officials and wealthy businessmen who were originally attached to the Yuan court were either the enemies of the five powerful commanders. These people are not really good people. They used to be the lackeys of the Mongolian Tartars. They have long since
It makes everyone hate him.
Zhu Yuanzhang naturally would not intercede on their behalf.
Even the Haozhou Capital Marshal's Mansion, composed of some of the most evil corrupt officials, Zhu Yuanzhang, Guo Zixing and others, unanimously made the decision to behead them in public and confiscate their homes for military expenses.
Suddenly, the people inside and outside Haozhou saw hope of survival, and many people enthusiastically joined the rebel army.
The number of the entire Haozhou rebel army suddenly increased to more than 10,000!
Fully doubled.
However, most of them were put under the command of the five great commanders such as Guo Zixing and Sun Deya. Apart from accepting a small number of several hundred young men, Zhu Yuanzhang's army did not expand the army as much as they did.
Because after discussing with Zhu Han, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that the Tatar soldiers of Daruhuachi Timur were coming soon. They had no time to train new recruits. Recruiting too many would affect military discipline, so he tried his best to push them to Guo Zixing and Sun Deya.
There they are.
Anyway, they don't have any decent military discipline now, so it won't have any impact.
Zhu Yuanzhang did this, and Guo Zixing, Sun Deya and others were greatly moved.
They all felt that Zhu Yuanzhang was not only young and promising, brave and resourceful, but also broad-minded. Not only was he not greedy for power and money, but he instead recommended young men to join the army. He was definitely a man and a hero!
When these words reached Zhu Yuanzhang's ears, he couldn't help but said to Zhu Han.
"Brother, do you think they really praise us, or do they think we are being taken advantage of and making fun of us?"
Zhu Han couldn't help but laugh at this situation: "Brother, I think they are serious. You didn't look at Guo Zixing. I heard that you haven't gotten married yet. Not to mention how happy I am. I guess in two days, Guo Zixing will
He’s coming to propose marriage, and he wants you to be his son-in-law.”
Zhu Han's words were not nonsense. Guo Zixing actually asked him whether Zhu Yuanzhang was married, and also asked about his age and birth month. It seemed that he was looking for a son-in-law. Zhu Han asked him back at that time,
It turns out that Ma Xiuying has been in Guo Zixing's home for two years.
A few years ago, Ma Xiuying mourned her parents and delayed her marriage. She was already considered an older girl.
Guo Zixing planned to make the decision and let her marry Zhu Yuanzhang, not only because they were of the same age, but also to win over Zhu Yuanzhang.
As for the younger daughters Guo Hui and Zhu Han.
Ever since he found out that Zhu Han was only twelve years old, Guo Zixing gave up the idea and decided to wait two years before talking.
Hearing Zhu Han's words, Zhu Yuanzhang disagreed.
"Nonsense! You kid, don't scare us. Guo Zixing is as black and strong as a tiger. We dare not marry his daughter." Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and scolded.
Zhu Han rolled his eyes. He, the old monk, had stayed in the temple for a long time, so he had to give him some enlightenment on his own.
"Brother, you are really confused. Guo Zixing is so tall and tall, and his wife was a famous beauty in Haozhou back then. If you don't believe it, look at the three brothers Guo Tianci, they are not bad in appearance! What's more, I found out that Guo Zixing was interested.
She is his adopted daughter, not his biological daughter." Zhu Han said.
"Adopted daughter?" Zhu Yuanzhang was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Yes, I heard that the girl's surname is Ma. Her father is Guo Zixing's sworn brother. He was killed by Yuan Ting a few years ago. Miss Ma fled and took refuge with Guo Zixing. She is also a poor person." Zhu Han said patiently.
I must facilitate this marriage no matter what!
Queen Ma is one of the rare wise queens in history, not just for Zhu Yuanzhang.
He was also very kind to Lao Zhu's sons and concubines, and he treated his adopted son Mu Ying, nephew Zhu Wenzheng and others as if they were his own children.
In history, the eldest nephew Zhu Wenzheng committed a serious crime that was tantamount to rebellion. Empress Ma also interceded and even allowed Zhu Wenzheng's son to become the king of Jingjiang and share the country with the Ming Dynasty for nearly three hundred years!
Such a perfect and virtuous sister-in-law must not be missed by my eldest brother.
"This girl Ma must have suffered a lot like us." After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a sense of sympathy in his heart.
"I also found out that Miss Ma is not only knowledgeable and reasonable, but also kind-hearted and virtuous. She can be regarded as a model of a good wife and mother. Brother, I want to ask you something!" Zhu Han suddenly changed the subject.
"What's the matter?" Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned and couldn't figure out which gourd medicine Zhu Han wanted to sell.
"Brother, if Guo Zixing proposes marriage and asks you to marry Miss Ma, you must agree!" Zhu Han pleaded very seriously.
In this life, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying did not meet each other or experience any hardships. Zhu Han was really afraid that he would miss his beloved.
Seeing Zhu Han's appearance, Zhu Yuanzhang knew that his younger brother was really begging for him seriously.
His heart was touched and he nodded seriously.
"If it's true what I told you, Miss Ma and we are destined to be together. Since we are destined, what are we afraid of? I will promise you that as long as Guo Zixing proposes marriage, I will definitely agree!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said very boldly.
What a joke. We Lao Zhu dare to rebel, but are we afraid of marrying a girl?
