Chapter 1810 Get more help, another way of rebellion
Xiao Tang knew very well that it was not Ma Kuo who was deliberately being pretentious, but that he had to bear this air now. However, since Ma Kuo was willing to meet him, and he did not seem to have the principle of monarch and minister engraved in his bones at all, once he bumped into him
This rebellious and rebellious minister, regardless of whether he was a scholar-bureaucrat or a minister who benefited the people in the Xiaotang Dynasty or not, would not care about his own safety. I am afraid that he would immediately denounce the traitorous leader who always betrayed and deceived the emperor like a chicken.
After all, Ma Kuo is not only proficient in literature and calligraphy, but also has a background in martial arts. When he was sent to the Jin Kingdom, he worked with Wanyan Aguda and even Jurchen, who were highly regarded by many honorable ministers. Of course, he was definitely not that kind of rotten Confucian scholar who talked about ethics, poetry and etiquette. Otherwise, how could he
Would the founding emperors and ministers of the Jin Dynasty, who were all reckless and brutal and united to destroy the Liao Dynasty, respectfully call him "Yeli Mali"? However, Ma Kuo might think that he is a cowardly king, but he will never take the initiative.
It came out from his mouth, but Ma Kuo should also know in his heart that if he switched to Xiao Tang's command and would no longer be fettered by the ideals of monarch and ministers, it would not only be bad for himself, but also for the many people who were under the rule of Song Ting.
more advantageous.
In addition to Ma Kuo, who had a complex expression on his face, Hu Yanqing and Xiao Tang, after seeing each other, immediately looked at the rebel leaders in front of them. When his eyes fell on one of them, he couldn't help but wonder.
He said with emotion: "Brother Cong, after the brothers of my clan got together, I was appointed as the commander of the capital in Runing County, and my younger brother was transferred to be the commander of the Dengzhou Navy... Each of them performed his own duties, and we were separated by a long road.
We haven't seen each other for more than a year, but now we have the opportunity to meet here, and I feel very comforted."
Hu Yanzhuo and several brothers got off their horses one after another, and Hu Yanzhuo, who stepped forward to salute, also saw his brothers from the same clan whom he had never met before. He immediately stepped forward to greet him and said with emotion: "I heard from Tan Ma News that the good brother and the righteous Ma Kuo were together.
I led Yong Jian Erlang to expel the golden captives from two prefectures. This time I came here with my brother, and I was able to meet my virtuous brother again. Brother Fool never expected that you and I would meet again under such circumstances."
If it had been the time before the Jin Kingdom sent its army to invade the Song Dynasty, Hu Yanqing would have reunited with Hu Yanzhuo, his brothers who were both descendants of Hu Yanzhuo, the famous founding general of the Song Dynasty, and had also been national officials before.
He would definitely turn his face to his face and scold him, his brother, for letting down the favor of the imperial court and joining in the rebellion and tarnishing the reputation of his fellow sect Hu Yanqing. However, today, the current situation has undergone too many drastic changes, and Hu Yanqing has not only been able to deeply understand
The reasons and difficulties why Brother Cong defected to Xiaotang, now he himself has thoughts of returning to Juyi.
At this situation, Ma Kuo hesitated for a moment, knowing that he had no choice but to invite Xiao Tang and other rebel leaders into the city to describe it in detail. In the government offices of the prefecture, there were already people and cooks preparing wine and food, killing sheep and pigs, and organizing banquets.
Dozens of tables and seats were spread out, allowing Xiao Tang and the others to enjoy the banquet.
However, Xiao Tang and a group of brothers entered the city calmly, making it clear that they were coming to have a friendly relationship with the volunteers who had recaptured the two state capitals. This also taught several groups of anti-Jin soldiers, mainly Zhaozhou Zanhuang's Wuma Village, to fight against the Jin Dynasty.
I felt very uplifted. Except for Xiao Tang, Hu Yanzhuo, Ma Kuo, Hu Yanqing and other leading leaders, the leaders of both sides took their seats separately or simply set up a shed in the open space outside the government office and sat on the ground. They nodded to each other from the beginning.
Then I started chatting with the heroes nearby. They were all passionate men who were willing to use their passion to defend their home and country and resist foreign humiliation. Of course, most of them had the same loyalty to each other, and the conversation could go on forever.
Soon after, the generals of both sides, Zuo Erlang, started fisting each other, holding back their sleeves, drinking and chatting with each other, and the laughter became louder and louder. Ma Kuo, who was sitting at the same table with Xiao Tang, listened to the news from the Texas government office.
Waves of laughter outside came to my ears, and it became clear that the tens of thousands of men under my command had joined forces with Xiao Tang's rebel army, which was the general trend.
During the banquet, Xiao Tang and Ma Kuo were heart-to-heart. When they both expressed their thoughts about protecting the country and protecting the country, when Xiao Tang subtly and earnestly advised them, there was a sentence that seemed to hit Ma Kuo's heart.
From the bottom of my heart: "The thing that I have in common with Xianggong Ma is that we both knew at the beginning that the Jinlu owl was so powerful that it would definitely endanger the country and the country of the Central Plains. Unfortunately, the eunuch Tong Guan acted arbitrarily and acted arbitrarily, which made him a rebellious official.
Of course I know that Ma Xianggong can't help himself, so he has no choice but to endure the evil in order to wash away his unjust charges... However, since there are some things that we have long foreseen the trouble, if we still let it go and live with the world, it will eventually happen.
It can't save the overall situation. You are unjust, so it's no wonder that I don't abide by the principles of my ministers. But Ma Xianggong is still obsessed with serving the official family, and I still respect Xie. But we, brothers, gather together to do great things together, and both of us are
We treat each other with openness and sincerity, and we don't have to be like those in the court, and we don't have to suffer from the slanderous attitude of those who have been falsely accused and wronged but have to keep saying that they live up to the officialdom.
When I came here, I not only admired Ma Xianggong as a person, but also wanted to give some additional words of persuasion: Don’t say that even though Ma Xianggong served the country wholeheartedly, he was not rewarded by the Song Dynasty, and instead became a criminal. Even if he could be re-employed by the imperial court, the imperial court would
How many ministers in the country still regard Xie as a criminal who submitted to the bandits? We brothers are only unwilling to be foolishly loyal to that faint king and have been criticized by some scholars. We feel that we are worthy of doing justice for heaven. Not only are we like Ma Xianggong, I
After all, he had dealt with Cai Jing, Tong Guan and many other powerful villains back then, so he could naturally sympathize with the hardships of being wronged...but Ma Xianggong was still persistent and wanted to return to the Song Dynasty to express his loyalty to that foolish emperor.
.....But according to Ma Xianggong's thinking, no matter whether Xie was wronged or not, would the officials take it to heart? But at the beginning, Xie was depressed and aggrieved, waiting for help, and the depression that Xie felt that he could not be redressed.
How many more times do you want to experience it?”
Zhe Mo had been drinking for three rounds and was half drunk. Ma Kuo paused when he heard what Xiao Tang said.
He raised his neck and drank the wine in the bowl. Ma Kuo changed his subject again and discussed the current situation with Xiao Tang frankly. He seemed to be half drunk and was taking advantage of the alcohol, but his tone
But he seemed very sure, "Without talent, Ma Kuo, this life will be entrusted to Xiao Renxia. And the tens of thousands of sons and daughters who follow me and risk their lives to fight against the Jin invaders will also be entrusted to Yu Xun...
."
Hearing what Ma Kuo said, Xiao Tang also smiled knowingly. He knew that Ma Kuo had completely gotten rid of the shackles imposed on him by the concept of foolish loyalty of monarchs and ministers in his heart. Once this hurdle in his heart was passed, he would think about it.
I will never go back and cling to the old ways...
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
To persuade Ma Kuo, a former loyal minister of the Song Dynasty, to surrender, he must be sincere and follow the temptation, and it will take a lot of twists and turns. However, the process of convincing another force that is extremely hostile to the imperial court is very easy and easy.
smoothly.
Just as Ma was expanding, Hu Yanqing and his two men sincerely led tens of thousands of righteous soldiers under their command to surrender, while Xiao Tang captured Zhaozhou without bloodshed. The two prefectures of Xinde immediately dispatched troops and generals to prepare to continue to attack the north to capture the Jin Dynasty.
The territory of the country. Soon after, thousands of miles away, located in the Jian'an Prefecture Hall of the Jianzhou Prefecture on Fujian Road, Xu Guanzhong had previously advised him to send people south to jointly fight against the anti-military forces in the stalemate stage with the imperial court.
Chai Jin, the leader in charge of foreign exchanges and negotiations, went south by water on Xiaotang's order. First, he sent his leader to report the situation. After landing, he was immediately given a grand reception by the anti-army troops occupying several states in the south of the Yangtze River.
Nowadays, Chai Jin was chatting and laughing with a group of rebel leaders in the government office hall of Jian'an City Prefecture, and the atmosphere seemed particularly harmonious. Chai Jin and Chai Jin came together on Xiao Tang's order.
The leader pounded the chopsticks in his hands very fast, and ate the delicious food. It was not until he had eaten all the delicacies with Fujian specialties that the man released his feet from the chair without being satisfied.
He came down and laughed loudly: "I was born here and grew up here. After all, the local food in my hometown is cooked authentically! Although brother Xiaotang has been fighting for many years in the east and west, now he has a great opportunity to return to his hometown and travel south.
Chief Fan, I am also grateful for your hospitality!"
The man who seemed to be the leader among the anti-military leaders present saw this and quickly clasped his hands, and replied: "I have heard for a long time that 'the best sword in Fujian, kills tigers like mowing grass', but when we fight in the green forests of Fujian,
Who doesn't know a good man who wanders around? My younger brother Fan Ruwei has admired Brother Shi Bao for a long time. I have always missed him and had planned to meet him, but I was busy making a living and had only a shallow relationship until our brothers decided to rebel.
At that time, my brother had gone north and joined Xiao Renxia to rebel against the imperial court. He had made a name for himself by killing Tatars for a long time. Now that he is appreciated by Xiao Renxia, he is fortunate enough to have his brother Shi Bao come to visit him personally. Why do we brothers have so much hesitation? I'll wait for you.
The more than 100,000 soldiers and horses who gathered in Fujian to fight against the imperial court were willing to join Xiao Renxia and work together to achieve a great cause!"
