Chapter 137
Zhang Yuan jointly
Luo Yulong and Zhang Xuan stayed in Xiao Yuan's camp, accompanied by Wang Xianzu. Yuan Shizhong first went to Cao's camp to worship Luo Rucai as his nephew.
Li Zicheng comforted Yuan Shizhong and treated him with great honor. It seemed that the crying child had milk. Li Zicheng probably didn't want Yuan Shizhong to make any more troubles, so things went smoothly. It seemed that Li Zicheng had already forgotten Yuan Shizhong's previous departure without saying goodbye.
Yuan Shizhong also seemed to have forgotten all the threats made by Li Zicheng, and it seemed as if nothing had happened on both sides.
As for Li Zicheng's wife Gao, a maid died silently and she recognized Yang Hao's great-granddaughter as her adopted daughter. This small matter is not worth mentioning.
Of course, it was only then that Zhang Xuan understood that the so-called Mr. Feng Yun and the so-called Duke Yang were the famous commander Yang Hao, who was responsible for the defeat of the four-pronged attack on Liao.
Although Yang Hao's four-pronged attack on the Liao Dynasty was defeated, the Jurchens became powerful and were later executed, which was considered worthy of their punishment. But in the hearts of his hometown people, he was a good official. Even if he was an official for Yan Song's sake, he was also very good to the villagers.
Yes, at least in the Ming Dynasty, there was no official who could make everyone in his hometown angry and unable to stay any longer.
oh,
One of them is Hong Chengchou.
Therefore, although Yang Hao left, the Yang family in Shangqiu also declined, but it was still considered a gentry family.
If it weren't for Guide City, in fact, Shangqiu County would be captured. How could it be so easy for Yang Hao's great-granddaughter to marry Yuan Shizhong.
During the war, the wedding ceremony was kept simple. On the same day, the bride was sent from Chuang Camp to Xiao Yuan Camp, which was regarded as a ceremony.
During the banquet, the generals from Cao's camp and those from the camp were still clearly distinguishable, but I don't know if it was intentional. The generals from Xiaoyuan's camp were classified as Cao's camp. And Li Zicheng didn't come either. It seemed that as his adoptive father, he didn't have the gift of a bride.
.
Zhang Xuan was not good at drinking, so after a few drinks, he pretended to be too drunk and ran away from the banquet. Instead of drinking with these people who drank wine as water, wine was actually considered a luxury in this era. After all, on the ground in Henan,
People were starving to death everywhere, so they stopped making wine a long time ago. The wine they drink now comes from the cellars of wealthy families in Guide City.
Moreover, the military laws among the rebels were strict. Drinking was never allowed during the march, but now that they were allowed to drink alcohol, these people almost died after seeing alcohol. Zhang Xuan could not understand this kind of madness.
Zhang Xuan came out, only to see that Zhang Zhi had already come out at some unknown time.
After all, Zhang Zhi disliked being with General Chuang Cao's camp even more than Zhang Xuan.
Zhang Xuan suddenly remembered something and asked: "Brother, where did you get Mr. Yang's great-granddaughter?"
Zhang Zhi smiled slightly and said, "Do you think I'm deceiving you?" He sighed and said, "In Guide, where are you standing?
In each courtyard, there is one that is the former residence of Mr. Yang."
The house where Zhang Xuan was working belonged to Liang Yizhang's wife's family, and Liang Yizhang's wife's family was the Yang family. Zhang Xuan didn't care about this relationship at the moment.
Zhang Xuan said: "In the old days, it was common for Wang Xietang to fly into ordinary people's homes. What's more, this Yang Gong made the Liao Dynasty out of control. Huh---"
Zhang Xuan never had a good impression of Yang Hao.
Zhang Zhi said: "Really? Let me tell you something?"
Zhang Xuan said: "Brother, please speak."
Zhang Zhi said: "During the Wanli period of this dynasty, during the campaign to aid the dynasty, there was a man who, as a civil official, pacified North Korea and made the North Koreans grateful. To this day, people even come all the way to Shangqiu to take a portrait of this man and put it in the
North Korea set up temples to offer sacrifices, and now the incense continues. Who do you think this person is?"
Zhang Zhi made it so obvious. If Zhang Xuan still couldn't guess who it was, he would be too stupid. He said, "Is it Yang Hao?"
Zhang Zhi said: "Is it Yang Hao?"
"Exactly." Zhang Zhi said: "The military preparations were lax, the weapons were not useful, the Liaodong clan was established to support thieves, there were disputes between the DPRK and the Central Government, and Shenzong was lazy in government. All these led to the defeat of Liaodong, which was attributed to Yang Gong.
The body is too much. Military strategists have victory and defeat, but there is no right or wrong in political affairs."
Zhang Xuan snorted coldly and said: "It is difficult to distinguish between right and wrong in political affairs, but it can also be judged by success or failure. When there is an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent. When the Ming Dynasty fell to this point, we are all guilty.
"
Zhang Xuan's words made Zhang Zhi choked and speechless. Zhang Zhi thought to himself: "Who is Zhang Xuan's background? He has insights into politics and military matters, and he knows the world's major events like the palm of his hand. Such a talent,
It is definitely not something that can only be found among the rogue bandits. If this person joins the rogue bandits, the imperial court will be in danger. Could it be that these rogue bandits really have some intentions of causing trouble."
Zhang Zhi understands very well that simple bandits cannot achieve success, but if scholars join the bandits, they can achieve success. Especially Zhang Xuan cannot be judged by ordinary scholars. Zhang Zhi does not believe that one of the side branches of his Zhang family can achieve success.
Such talent.
Where did this person come from? Why did he use the name of the Linying Zhang family on his body? Could it be that he was hiding something? Zhang Zhi couldn't help but fell into deep thinking. "That's all," Zhang Zhi said secretly: "
It's useless to think about it, he will definitely tell it in the future."
But he never expected that he was wrong. Zhang Zhi could not figure out the answer throughout his life. Decades later, when he took his last breath in bed, he could not figure out why.
At that time, everyone in the world knew that the new emperor was from the Linying Zhang family, and even the ancestors of the Linying Zhang family were supported in the Ancestral Temple.
Yuan Shizhong's wedding was a drama of the unity of the rebels. As for whether it was really the case, only the parties concerned knew.
The army would not stay in place for long. Originally, it was not far from Kaifeng to return to Germany, but with Yuan Shizhong fleeing and chasing and then rejoining the army and getting married, about ten days were wasted.
Therefore, as soon as Yuan Shizhong got married, the army set off on the second day. Not long after the army set off, Zhang Xuan was summoned by Luo Rucai.
"Dad, do you have anything to do with me?" Zhang Xuan came to Cao's camp.
At this moment, Cao's camp has already left the camp one after another, and the large group of cavalry is slowly moving forward. On the vast land of Henan, they are divided into several columns, with chariots and horses. Looking down from the sky, they look like countless ants, slowly moving towards the north.
Although the entire cavalry in Cao Ying's camp is composed of cavalry, they can't march very fast on weekdays, so they have to conserve their horse power.
Moreover, during this northern advance, several partial divisions had already been sent out to attack the counties east of Kaifeng and south of the Yellow River. Therefore, there was no need to go too fast, just maintain the momentum of Mount Tai and slowly move northward.
"Based on that." Luo Rucai said, "Do you think Yuan Shizhong is reliable?"
Zhang Xuan said: "Yuan Shizhong is a smart man. As a smart man, he knows what to do. It is in his best interest."
Zhang Xuan didn't say it was reliable or unreliable, because he understood that in the heart of Luo Rucai, a thousand-year-old fox, probably no one was reliable.
"Yes." Luo Rucai said: "Yuan Shizhong can surrender to me because of his bad relationship with Li Chuang, and he can also surrender to Li Chuang. Therefore, I want you to go to Xiao Yuan's camp."
"Supervising the army?" Zhang Xuan thought to himself.
"Of course I won't let you go alone. You go there with your troops. If Yuan Shizhong makes any changes, you should know what to do." Luo Rucai said.
Zhang Xuan said: "I know, I will definitely bring Yuan Shizhong's head to see my father."
"Okay, let's go." Luo Rucai said, "Among my nephews, you are the only one I can trust."
Zhang Xuan thought to himself: "This job of supervising the army is not easy to do."
After a day's march, we started to set up camp at about three or four o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, Zhang Xuan also had to organize his troops and go to camp with Xiao Yuan.
Arriving at the location of Xiao Yuan Camp, Zhang Xuan had to admit that Yuan Shizhong's influence was extraordinary.
When Yuan Shizhong left, he left all his vassals behind and fled south with only more than 10,000 elite troops. But this time, these vassals he left behind came back one after another. Of course, some of them were warlike.
Many of the powerful ones were also annexed by Chuangying and Caoying.
But most of them still choose to follow Yuan Shizhong.
Outside the camp of Xiaoyuan Camp, there are countless tents so densely packed that it is almost impossible to see the edge. Zhang Xuan calculated in his mind that there are at least 50,000 people outside Xiaoyuan Camp. And there are still some who can't survive every day.
The hungry people took refuge in Xiao Yuan's camp.
