Chapter 81: Gather People's Hearts
"Any ancient emperors who worry about the world are only the lords who start a business, the lords who revived the world, and the wise rulers who guarded the world can do it. The ordinary rulers will be happy with the world, and then the country's demise will begin from now on. Why? When the emperor gets the country, the heaven will give him virtue. If the king always has a fear and regards his ancestors worry about the world, he will be favored by the heaven forever; if he is negligent, the disaster will be added. How can he not be afraid!"
Zhu Youlang glanced at the soldiers and said in a deep voice.
"This is a passage from "The Instructions of the Emperor Ming Zu" compiled by Emperor Taizu himself. Whenever I see this passage, I will feel it."
Zhu Youlang paused and then continued: "National affairs are difficult now, and I have been in three provinces a day, for fear that the country will suffer disasters due to my personal words and deeds. Fortunately, my ancestors protect me, and the country's power has gradually improved. In order to resist the Eastern Captains and restore the Ming Dynasty, I discussed with all the ministers and decided to move the capital to Chengdu!"
All kinds of rumors have been leaked earlier, saying that the emperor wants to move the capital.
But that's just a rumor after all.
Now that it has been said by the emperor himself, it has been officially announced.
The soldiers and soldiers of the Hu Ben Army were carefully selected. As the emperor's personal army, their destiny was naturally closely linked to the destiny of the emperor.
If the emperor wants to move the capital, they naturally have to follow him to Chengdu.
"You are all natives from Yunnan. You join the army to serve the country and go to Chongqing. Not everyone can do it when you leave your hometown and go on an expedition to Chongqing. I am very grateful to you. This is my first thank you."
As soon as these words came out, the soldiers in the army were shocked.
They heard it right? The emperor just said he was very grateful to them?
The Emperor is the most noble person in the world and is the representative of God on earth.
A dignified father, actually thanked him personally?
Li Dingguo, who was accompanying him, was also shocked. His Majesty the Emperor had not said that he would make up this matter before.
How can these ministers bear this?
But he couldn't interrupt Zhu Youlang now, so he could only stand aside and listen.
"Some of you are twenty or thirty years old, and some are only sixteen or seventeen years old. This is the best time in your life. Which of you is not raised by your parents? Not the flesh of your parents? I also have children, and I can understand the mood of being a parent."
Zhu Youlang paused and choked and said, "They made great sacrifices to allow you to join the army to serve the country, so I am very grateful to them, and I am the second thank you."
"The Eastern Barbarians are fierce, and the people who fallen land still live a life of stagnation and food. Even so, many people who are interested in the Ming Dynasty secretly work for the court, hoping that one day the royal army can attack the north and recover the lost land and save them from the fire and water. They are willing to risk their lives to make secret stakes. I am very moved, and I am thankful for this."
After thanking the three times, Zhu Youlang raised his arms and shouted: "National affairs are now difficult. I hope that the king and ministers will work together to fight against foreign enemies. It won't take long for the Donghu to attack again. At that time, I will not take a step back and live and die with the capital!"
"We are with Your Majesty!"
Someone in the crowd shouted first, and then there was a tsunami of echoes like mountains and seas.
"Where is your Majesty, we are!"
"I wish to die for Your Majesty!"
Zhu Youlang was very satisfied when he saw this scene. People’s hearts are still available.
Zhu Youlang pressed his hands down, signaling the soldiers to calm down.
He cleared his throat and continued: "The Emperor Ming was in a sea and a world of people, surpassing three generations and anecdotes of the Han and Tang dynasties, and was in the extremes of heaven and earth. The western region of the Western Regions was far away, and the journey was scheming. If all the foreign countries overseas were actually far away, they all supported Chen Zhi and re-translated the dynasty. Since the third year of Yongle, they have been sent to the Western Regions, and have been sent seven times. The countries they have experienced have ranged from Champa, Java, Sanfoqi, and Siam, and have gone directly to the Southern Heaven, Ceylon Mountain, Guli, and Kezhi. They arrived at the Western Regions, the Hulumus Kingdom, Adan, and the Woodbone Du Shu Kingdom. There are more than 30 countries of all sizes and traveled more than 100,000 miles to the Cangming."
"This is a passage from the Tianfei Lingying Record. I feel a lot of emotion every time I read it. My great Ming Dynasty prospers the Tang and Song dynasties, and far away from the Han and Tang dynasties. Every inch of the country captured by our ancestors is exchanged for blood. How can we easily discard it when we get to me? If this is true, not only will I not be able to face my ancestors, but I am afraid you will not be able to face my ancestors, right?"
Zhu Youlang's attacks completely ignited the soldiers of the Hu Ben Army.
"Strike the enemy, attack the enemy, and take back all the land occupied by the Dongliu!"
"It should be from the Ming Dynasty, even from the Ming Dynasty. No inch of land can be left!"
"East caps steal the giant thief in the country, everyone can kill him!"
"The world is invincible!"
Zhu Youlang was very pleased to see this.
In fact, he originally wanted to say, "I am not in harmony in the Ming Dynasty, and will not pay compensation, will not cede land, will not pay tribute, the emperor guards the country's borders, and the king dies in the country." But when he thought of Emperor Yongli's escape in history, let's forget it.
Anyway, what he said just now has the same effect, as long as it motivates emotions, it is enough.
...
...
When he left the school ground, Li Dingguo's back was already wet.
He did not spend a short time with the emperor, but this was the first time he had seen the emperor's cleverness with his own eyes.
The emperor's ability to win people's hearts is really unfathomable.
After a short sentence, the general gathered his heart and made the soldiers willingly work for him.
Li Dingguo was increasingly grateful that he firmly supported the Ming Dynasty's decision to support Emperor Yongli.
If you want to establish your own business like Sun Kewang, the final result will be a complete failure.
After all, there are still many people who support the Ming Dynasty.
Relying on the Ming Dynasty flag can be exchanged for their support, but it would be very different if you change the flag.
Li Dingguo no longer remembers when the emperor began to awaken. Maybe it was before the Donglu attacked Kunming?
Overnight, the emperor was like a different person. Not only was he responsible, but he could also climb the city to the army to boost morale.
During the Battle of Guarding Kunming, the emperor even shot and killed an enemy soldier himself.
This can definitely be recorded in the historical books with great significance.
Li Dingguo felt that he saw hope again.
Although it may not be smooth sailing, everyone has hope again.
They are all iron-blooded men. Who wants to be whipped and enslaved by alien races like cows and horses?
We men would rather die standing than live on knees!
What's more, based on the current situation, it is still unknown who will win.
Li Dingguo felt that the Ming Dynasty had at least half of the chance to turn the tables.
You Oboi are coming, you are coming just right!
If he could annihilate the Shang Sanqi in one fell swoop, he would seriously damage the Donglu, causing him to recover his vitality within a few years.
Li Dingguo could not wait to fight Oboi head-on.
Isn’t this guy known as the No. 1 Warrior in Manchuria? Li Dingguo will test his quality!
