Chapter 72 The Monolithic Yun Family’s Authority
After Tan Boming left, Zhou Guoping said to Zhao Xiuqin: "The government orders should be unified."
Zhao Xiuqin said: "Of course Only my sister is qualified to be the leader of Nanjing."
"This is a must. In Lantian County, the most capable people come first. Of course, the first principle is to benefit the task."
"Only when my sister is the leader can we complete the mission."
Zhou Guoping pinched Zhao Xiuqin's nose and said, "It will be different after we come out. You used to have a big opinion against me."
"The county magistrate asked me to keep an eye on you and not allow you to act alone. Wang Zhong died in Yueyang. The county magistrate was very sad. He said that you are restless now and are anxious to regain your glory. This will be easy. We are eager for success and do some risky things.
The county official also said that in the past two years, we have been trying to achieve our goals as quickly as possible, so bad news has continued to come. This is his fault. He asked us to try our best as a team. We must put personal safety first and try not to take risks. He also said that time is generally beneficial to us."
Zhou Guoping shook his head and said: "We don't stick to small things when doing big things. What we do is the world. The biggest thing in life is that sacrifice is unavoidable. The county minister said that we still have time, but it is just to comfort us. Don’t we know if there is time?
In this world, the chaos has begun to unfold. When the emperor in the capital was unable to control the place, all the heroes came together in an instant. Although we controlled half of Mongolia, the Manchu Qing Dynasty had also been building up its troops in the past two years, ready to take advantage of the chaos to enter the Central Plains.
< p>Generals such as Zuo Liangyu, Huang Degong, Liu Zeqing, etc. are also waiting and watching. Their thoughts are not on annihilating Li Hongji and Zhang Bingzhong. They are all waiting for the opportunity to dominate one side.Ying. This is especially true in Tianfu. People's support has long been away from the imperial court. In the Jiangnan area, the landlords and wealthy families seem to be living and drinking, but in fact they are secretly accumulating their own strength in order to protect themselves.
We come to Yingtianfu. The real purpose is not to invade Jiangnan, but to help Shi Kefa stabilize Jiangnan, and use Shi Kefa's name to divide the landlords and make the chaos slower.
As long as this goal is achieved, personal safety is not enough. "
Zhao Xiuqin sighed and said: "The county leader hopes that those of us who conquer the world must also be the ones who will govern the world in the future. Only in this way can our ideals be implemented consistently. That's the most time-saving way."
Zhou Guoping smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. If I die, come to my grave when you have time and tell me whether the new world is really what we dreamed of. That's it."
"You must listen to the words of the county magistrate."
"I will not accept your fate."
Li Hongji lost it. Guanzhong, this is very inconvenient for him. If he wants to reach the Central Plains directly from Xiangyang, it is most convenient to go through Guanzhong. He does not have to fight with the government over and over again for Nanyang Mansion.
Sun Chuanting hasHe couldn't remember how many times he had left Nanyang Mansion, nor could he remember how many times he had occupied Nanyang Mansion. The tug-of-war between him and Li Hongji had been going on for a whole year.
At this time, he regretted why he didn't knock Li Hongji down in Hancheng and let him escape, which ended up becoming what he is now.
After the Qin army left Guanzhong, Lantian County gave up funding for them. Whether it was military rations, military pay, weapons, or material supplies, they all needed support from the local government.
After these years of military disasters, today's Henan Prefecture is already a place where bones are exposed in the wild and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles.
Even Sun Chuanting himself could not see any signs of the end of the war.
The army slowly returned eastward. On the endless plain, dry weeds were as tall as a person. Bones appeared from time to time on both sides of the road. Fat wild dogs stared at a distance with a pair of blood-red eyes. Follow the army. ’
These beasts also know that as long as they follow the army, there will be endless fresh corpses to eat.
The wilderness in winter is not quiet. Crows and groups of crows fly up from the wild forest from time to time, flying over the army with squawking cries, and finally land on some strange and tall trees. Looking at this lonely army like a ghost.
After years of fighting, there is no longer any morale. War has become as frequent as eating and sleeping every day. It has become a part of life-just use a knife to fight when you encounter the enemy...
There are not many soldiers who followed Sun Chuanting from Tongguan in the past, and the uniform Qin accent in the army is no longer the same. There are many more Central Plains accents and Lianghu accents. If you listen carefully, you can also vaguely recognize the Shandong accent. smell.
Some soldiers surrendered to Li Hongji after their defeat. Similarly, many bandits were recruited by the army after their defeat. At this time, it was difficult to distinguish who was the bandit and who was the bandit. The officers and soldiers are gone.
Many times Sun Chuanting doubted the purpose of his fighting. Why he was fighting before had a clear concept: for the king, for the country, and for the world.
Nowadays, when there is no distinction between officials and thieves, all this has lost its meaning. If it continues, the result will be that the two groups of people fight each other and eventually end up dying together.
This is not the result Sun Chuanting wants.
At this time, the affluent and peaceful life in Lantian County had a great temptation for him. He wanted to drive up to Longshouyuan to see the green Zhongnan Mountain and bask in the warmth there. In the sun, I spread a mat and a pillow by the stream, and sent two or three boys to collect firewood to make tea. I held a book in my hand and savored the meaning of it while reading the clouds of Zhongnan Mountain.
When he was tired, he covered his face with a book and fell asleep. When he woke up, he climbed up the path, asked questions and answers to the woodcutter, and discussed the Tao with the immortal.
The bumpy carriage quickly disrupted his thoughts. The soldiers delivered a letter. Sun Chuanting glanced at the cover, sighed and cut the seal with a knife. After just one glance, he sat upright.body.
After reading the letter carefully, I burned the letter.
The lieutenant general was summoned and said: "Let's go back to Kaifeng."
The lieutenant general hesitated and said: "Sir, the Yellow River has been frozen, and Kaifeng is unsafe to defend."
Sun Chuanting said: "Let's go."
When the Qin army passed under Funiu Mountain, Yun Zhao stood on the top of the mountain and looked at this army that was capable of conquering and fighting.
"The Qin Army is no longer as brave as it used to be."
After seeing the Qin Army, Yun Zhao was very disappointed. He thought he could take over this old army. Judging from today's scattered military formations and delayed march, the strength of this army has been seriously exaggerated.
Yun Yang stretched his neck and looked at it for a while and said: "The battle damage is too serious and the replacement soldiers are too poor. The combat power of the Old Qin people is far more than this."
Yun Zhao looked at Yun Yang's bald head and said: "Look at things fairly and don't be emotional."
"Whoever is emotional is like that."
Yun Zhao looked back. Looking at his subordinates who were full of pits, he said to Yun Yang: "Where are their scouts? Passing through such a dangerous place as Funiu Mountain, why didn't they send scouts to search the mountain?"
"That's our rule. The troops outside don't have the extra energy to search the mountains. Even if they are found, they will still fight when it's time to fight."
"Your hair is damaged because you don't have the concept of searching and moving forward. A fire burned it down."
"I was trying to gain the upper hand. Otherwise, I wouldn't have to go through the fire wall and just take a detour."
" Huh? You are much smarter."
"I have always been smart, but I always have to act stupid in front of you, so that my aunt will not be suspicious and think that I am going to do something bad, and I will be less likely to suffer. "Two family tricks."
Yun Zhao nodded with satisfaction and said: "That's good. Position yourself correctly so that I don't always have to think about where to place your bald head. It’s a difficult question to look at.”
“The head should be placed on the neck.”
“It doesn’t necessarily look good on a gold lacquer plate.”
< p>Yun Yang seemed unwilling to discuss the fate of his head with Yun Zhao, so he changed the subject and said: "After Sun Chuanting leaves, Li Hongji's front troops are coming, and the leading general is Liu Zongmin, who will arrive two days later.< /p>I will stop Liu Zongmin. The meeting place between you and Li Hongji is in front of the Funiu Mountains.
If you want to kill Li Hongji or Liu Zongmin now, tell me now. This is the last chance, I will arrange it."
"How to kill them?"
"It's very simple, use cannons, delayed mines, even dead soldiers. It's not impossible to kill them together with gunpowder."
Yun Zhao shook his head and said, "You fool, there's no need."
Yun Yang looked at Yun Zhao sideways and said, "Who are you targeting?" Is it arranged to be with Li Hongji? His wife or his brother?"
Yun Zhao shrugged his shoulders and said: "Nothing! "
"Then I don't care, but Sun Chuanting wants to see you.
Yun Zhao sighed and said: "What's there to see? It's just that the hero is short of breath." ”
Sun Chuanting coughed so badly that he could only sit down for a stick of incense while wearing a black fox fur cloak. The cough alone took up half of the time.
Yun Zhao gave Sun Chuanting He poured a cup of tea and said, “Don’t force yourself when you are sick. "
"If you are willing to fight for me, I will definitely return to Xi'an to recuperate. "
"The emperor refuses. ”
“Do you still need the emperor’s approval for what you do now? "
"Righteousness is indispensable! To this day, I am still paying taxes to His Majesty. Half of his Nourishing Heart Palace collapsed, and I paid five thousand silver dollars in the hope of repairing it. ”
“That’s because you will live there in the future and repairing the palace for His Majesty is actually repairing a house for yourself.” "Sun Chuanting said it bluntly.
"There are many heroes in the world, but I may not have the last laugh. "
"If you suddenly make a mistake in the middle, of course you will not be able to make it to the end. As far as I know, based on my understanding of you, the chance of you making a mistake is too small, even if you are dead in the middle. , you still have two sons. With the remaining power you left behind and the influence of your Yun family in Lantian County, even if your son is only one year old, he can sit firmly in the highest position and grow up well.
So, sooner or later, this world will belong to you, Yunshi. "
Yun Zhao nodded and asked Yun Yang on the left: "If I die, you won't take my son's position, right? "
Yun Yang immediately replied: "After you die, I will go to the residence to guard your son every day from the palace. "
Yun Zhao then smiled and said to Sun Chuanting: "What you said makes sense. ”
