Chapter 786: Building Resentment and Prospering Nine Thousand Miles (Part 2)
However, former prime minister Zheng Cong-sei, who was left behind in the local area, was no less than Cui On-qian, who was held hostage by them, and was even better in local prestige and people's hearts.
Therefore, under his personal leadership, the military and civilians of Taiyuan City, refused without hesitation, and took over the request/persuade of Taiyuan City in the name of replacing the North Entrance of the Zhu Xieyi Holy Formation. Instead, after counting the many serious crimes of rebelling against the vassal headed by Zhu Xie, the foreign coalition forces were rejected.
Therefore, at this moment, the trusted general An Jingsi, who was standing next to Zhu Xieyi Sheng, was covered with new and old blood and had several arrows inserted, but without blinking, represented another attempt to retreat without success in the siege.
However, in the large-scale joint camps farther away, it was filled with a certain joyous atmosphere; because there was a constant stream of teams, they all returned with all kinds of plundering gains, or led a series of captured women and young men.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Xieyi Sheng couldn't help but frown, but remembered the advice from civil servants and others in the central army tent; "The king wants to take Hedong as the foundation, so please restrain yourself a little to stabilize the people's hearts."
However, when he made a call, he remembered Anqing, Sage, and even Zhuxie's subordinates' attitudes, and finally turned into a heavy sigh. He could not make up his mind after all.
After all, what he needs most now is the efforts of these generals in the ministry, which drives them to endure hunger, suffer and suffer, and damage the motivation for many cattle, sheep, and the elderly and weak to persevere. Isn’t it just a wanton plunder and a promise from Hedong?
I am afraid that this restrictive order will make the huge Taiyuan City not yet captured, but this forced coalition force will be disintegrated and disintegrated. At this time, another subordinate brought bad news, and Cui Anqian, who was walking in the army, had another problem.
A moment later, in the camp, I just wanted to take the opportunity to commit suicide but was discovered again, and I was restrained by Cui Anqian, and I also stared at him with disheveled hair:
"I am useless to them, why don't I let myself be loyal to the ministers?"
"If I have the kindness of knowing and meeting, how dare I be lazy and even less dare to humiliate and harm my body..."
Zhu Xieyi Sheng sighed helplessly:
"So your repayment is to use my lifetime reputation as a deceitful way, and to slaughter our soldiers, civilians and people at will?"
Cui Anqian, who had a mess of hair and beard, sneered more and more:
"This is also a temporary measure that has to be done in order to practice the great righteousness of the king. If we can get the cooperation of our husbands, we will naturally achieve half the result with twice the effort without such a big effort."
Zhu Xieyi Sheng sighed more and more:
"That!! I just regretted that I misjudged the wolf ambitions of the sheep and horse slaves, and that I could have such a disaster."
In the end, Zhu Xieyi Sheng, who was almost spitted on his face, came out without anything. He was also quite troubled and embarrassed about this. His previous actions offended this person fiercely.
Therefore, although he used the other party's name, he did not dare to let him really come forward to do anything; otherwise, with this unthreatening or threatening behavior, he would be afraid that something would be killed.
At this time, several cavalry suddenly came from afar, and randomly turned into an emergency military situation sent to Zhu Xieyi Sheng:
"The army and horse envoys who went south to Fenzhou encountered the banner of Hezhong (army) outside Yindi Pass. They broke their first three formations in one go, and then saw most of the Hezhong area arrive, so they retreated to Jiahu Fort to be guarded..."
——I am the dividing line—
In Ezhou, under the roof of the whistle shed on the banks of the river.
The old general with gray-haired and thick bearded hair and thick beard, Ezhou defense officer Wang Chongyin sat cross-legged on the ground, and looked at the opposite shore like a swimming fish, and was rowing boats. They were refugees from Jiangbei who were constantly fleeing under the rule of Liu Hanhong in Huaixi.
In front of him was the food from today's camp. Sauce made of spicy and sour diced diced pork with chopped dried beans and bacon, and salted tofu, salted vegetables and oil residue, covered with brown rice, mixed bean dumplings or pasted cakes, which was a delicious lunch.
And beside him, there were still many people with different expressions surrounded by people, looking at him with anticipation or praying, waiting to speak.
"Is the Grand Governor's Office going to disarmament for the third time this time? This is a good thing... It is possible to update and replace the fittest in time with a ban, and survive the fittest among the army. This is the common sense of basic military governance since ancient times."
However, Wang Chongyin disagreed with this and wiped his mouth:
"Is it true that we should be like the vassal army in "The Northern Dynasties' Disputes", which is the following party to reverse the public opinion of the soldiers. If you have any dissatisfaction or difficulty in filling the gap, you will be willing to play the trick of killing Yishuai?"
"Even the personal interests and desires of the small gang have turned their efforts to cheer up and improve their strengths or to reform and eliminate evil again and again, or have to surrender a capable minister and kill them with ruthless hands to stop them?"
Speaking of this, Wang Chongyin put down the soup bowl again and asked:
"Are the Taiping Army arriving in retired and sent soldiers, or have deducted military merits and land? Or are the disabled old soldiers in Rongyuan who are not enough to keep warm and spend the rest of their lives? Or are the old soldiers who retreated and transferred to the local area to settle and serve, and aren't they enough to support themselves and their families?"
"To be honest, everyone is a good man with great hands and feet. Why can others support themselves with the help of the governor's office and maintain their own strength? Some people just want to get something for nothing, or be able to be arrogant and do good deeds in the credit card. Why can such people expect to stay in the army?"
"All things in the world are like the cycle of reincarnation in the four seasons. There will be advancement and retreat. This is the vitality and vitality of things that are incompetent. What can you not understand? Or is it that someone doesn't want to think about it at all?"
Finally, Wang Chongyin stroked his beard and said with some meaning:
"I want to tell me, this is because some people are confused about their selfishness and gains and losses in their personal reputation and power, so they are so upset about returning. But if someone is deceived to cause trouble, that is the greatest injustice for those brothers who are bleeding, sweating, and sacrificing their own lives to the present."
As for the fact that there may be the Great Governor, who has further reduced and reduced the number of new and old, these are the plans of the hills and the influence ratio that belong to the background of the rebel army. Wang Chongyin really has no need to put it into words.
Because this is something that any mature and wise superior will inevitably do. Under any structure that loses checks and balances and constraints, it represents endless troubles and disasters.
In his early years of following Huang Wang, he had actually experienced or seen a lot of this. In recent years, he was able to calm down and read the designated bibliography again, study and often reflect on the past, and gradually understand the truth.
Just like when Huang Wang had the opportunity to stand at the top of the world, he was too concerned about his old feelings and was surrounded by his relatives, and the result was that his excess human feelings turned into partial divisions and chaos in the military palace, the biggest hidden danger and root cause.
Therefore, he also used this to criticize and warn the existence of those in the army who still blessed with luck and fantasy; after all, as the origin of the old rebel army, there were few people who finally came out of the sea of corpses and blood, and could keep up with the Great Governor Ding and Reform.
If you miss the opportunity to continue moving forward in this large group because of temporary hesitation and wavering of gains and losses; or you will gain a position in the future and the opportunity to pass on the name of the new dynasty, it would be particularly regrettable.
Therefore, he would rather speak a little badly here, so that those who want to test and seek help will give up and hold grudges; it is better than letting them join in a group and make some demands, but inexplicably break the taboo and ruin their future.
At the same time, the Hanshui Ferry Crossing outside Xiangzhou City
"Xiaoke has seen all the great masters..."
The monk in black clothes and cloth who had just walked off the boat, quickly clasped his hands and bowed:
"You're finally here..."
The monks also responded in anticipation:
In fact, with the large number of people moving away from the pass, the scholars and people in the capital were not only those women from Pingkangli and merchants from the east and west cities, but also monks and Taoists from many temples inside and outside the city.
The reason is also very simple. Although they are known as transcendental affairs and practice in a closed-door manner, they also need a lot of human and material resources from the world to support and maintain their daily livelihoods.
What's more, the temples inside and outside the capital are now in ruins and withering. Those Buddhist lords (supporting temples) attached to temple property and monks (supporting monks) who farm and rent land are also dead and fleeing, and one or two of them are gone.
However, the monks who survived the surviving battles of the government and the rebels were still facing the subsequent liquidation of the Xin Dynasty of Daqi, which was exhausted, were really unsustainable.
Therefore, even the Taiping Army was equally harsh and strict with these Buddhists, searching many places and filling in various offerings, and forcing many ordinary monks to return to secular life. However, when the troops were withdrawn, many monks spontaneously followed and went south to avoid disaster.
The monks who were present to welcome were one of the people who stood in front of the battle. After confirming the attitude and measures of the Taiping Army towards the temples and monks under their rule, several groups of people went south one after another; the Daqinglong Temple, which was born in the country, was one of them.
Unfortunately, as the last inheritance of the Tang Dynasty's Secretology, Master Bengjue/Wisdom Wheel (Ding Jianwu, a native of Duling, Jingzhao), who had served as the last generation of Master Bengjue (Ding Jianwu, a native of Duling of Jingzhao), who had served as the Zuojie Monk, passed away eight years ago, no longer had a decent figure who could lead the improvement of the sect.
