Zhang Ximeng set the tone and determined the strategy to win the hearts and minds of the Miao soldiers.
We must remove all the shackles on their bodies, explain the truth clearly, and turn them into the most determined warriors.
Liu Bowen, Song Lian and others felt that this task was not easy, but they were all enthusiastic and full of fighting spirit.
Restoring China and rebuilding China are just words!
Without hard work, nothing can be accomplished!
They acted decisively, and coincidentally, Wu Datou rehearsed several new plays at this time, including the capture of Zhuji. The original white-haired girl was also adjusted, making the conflicts in the opera more intense and more enjoyable.
dripping.
Especially I found a few good actresses.
Liu Bowen directly called Wu Datou and discussed with him, asking him to act for Miao Bing.
Wu Datou happily accepted, "Mr. Bowen, the Miao people are also good at singing and dancing. I think we should communicate with each other, perform with each other, and communicate smoothly with each other, and the effect will be better."
Of course Liu Bowen agrees...
They worked hard and made all-out preparations.
On the other side, Zhu Yuanzhang felt strong pressure.
With Zhang Shicheng's capture of Hangzhou, the salt dealer's ambitions came to an end.
Suzhou and Hangzhou are paradise on earth, what more do you want!
Just be happy.
Zhang Shicheng was like this, Fang Guozhen was too weak, and he had a de facto alliance with Zhu Yuanzhang, so the eastern front was basically stabilized.
In the north, the main Han and Song Dynasty regime was Liu Futong. He and Zhu Yuanzhang were not only allies, but also partners. Lao Zhu provided Liu Futong with 200,000 shi of military rations. Liu Futong's Northern Expedition army had already entered Guanzhong and was fighting with Chahan Tiemu.
The children fought fiercely.
It has to be said that as an ally, Liu Futong did his best. He went all out for the Northern Expedition, which not only relieved Zhu Yuanzhang's pressure on the northern front, but also helped weaken Yuan Ting's power. With his efforts, he should at least be given a
Only the founding duke or something like that can be worthy of Lao Liu's contribution.
After going around for a while, there is no doubt that Lao Zhu’s biggest pet peeve is the west, Tianwan!
They have captured Longxing Road and firmly occupied the territory west of Poyang Lake, forming a confrontation with Zhu Jiajun across Poyang Lake.
In addition, Lao Zhu also received news that Marshal Chen Youliang under Ni Wenjun had captured Ji'an and had plans to plot Ganzhou.
After getting the news, Lao Zhu immediately summoned civil servants and generals to discuss the matter, putting aside even the tens of thousands of Miao soldiers.
If nothing else, Lao Zhu was already worried about Tian Wan's vigorous progress.
"Everyone, please look at the map." Zhu Sheng took on the task of explaining the strategic situation. He looked solemn and introduced to everyone, "The fundamental place of Tianwan is between Jianghan and Han. Now they have captured Huguang and most of Jiangxi.
Through the Xiangjiang River and the Lingqu Waterway, Tianwan's troops can penetrate deep into Lingnan. To the east, they encroach on Ji'an and plot Ganzhou, which means they also have the Ganjiang Waterway in their hands. If they go all out to the south and Lingnan, they will all fall.
In Tianwan's hands, if they take over the Fujian territory, it will be equivalent to besieging us in Jiangzuo and cutting off our development prospects."
Everyone stared closely at the map, it was indeed the case.
Zhu Yuanzhang's territory was roughly in Anhui, southern Jiangsu, eastern Jiangxi, and western Zhejiang in later generations... In terms of population density and affluence, it was slightly worse than Zhang Shicheng's Suzhou and Hangzhou, and it was also the most prosperous place in the world.
But Lao Zhu also has a problem.
Zhu Jiajun captured Zhuji and cut off Zhang Shicheng's way south, which was equivalent to locking Zhang Shicheng in a cage.
But if Tian Wan lets go south, seizes Lingnan, and in turn annexes Fujian, he will also lock Zhu Yuanzhang in a cage. From a strategic perspective, it will be very unfavorable.
Tianwan occupies the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and occupies the thoroughfare of nine provinces. The advantage is really great.
Especially after Liu Futong took over the main force of the Yuan army, Tianwan's space for development in all directions was opened up, and there was no longer any obstacle.
They have even planned to march into Bashu.
If this continues, Tian Wan will be able to kill Zhu Yuanzhang alive with his territory several times that of Lao Zhu!
Just looking at the map, the densely packed area made Zhu Jiajun's civil and military personnel feel their scalp numb and shudder.
It's really scary.
"Your Majesty, if that's the case, why don't we strike first and take advantage of Tianwan's unsteady footing to head west with all our strength and fight them!" Xu Da suggested.
Lao Zhu frowned slightly, "We are different from Xu Shouhui, Ni Wenjun and others. The newly captured prefectures have not been completely digested, the land equally divided, and the eradication of powerful people have not yet been completed. Especially Zhang Shicheng, he may still be
We are facing each other with weapons and weapons. Now go west with all your strength, we are afraid of endless trouble!"
Xu Da also shut up. Indeed, internal integration has not been completed, and the situation of external enemies has not been clearly understood.
It is not Zhu Jiajun's style to mobilize troops casually.
Like Tian Wan, who only cares about annexing land and expanding his territory, Zhu Jiajun may not be a match for the experienced Tian Wan, not to mention that there is a vicious dog Zhang Shicheng by his side!
Zhu Sheng muttered: "In fact, the best way to go up is to have someone who can hold Tian Wan down... But at the moment, only Aruwen from Yunnan has this strength, and he is the Liang Wang of Yuanting, so I'm afraid he won't be able to
Give us your strength."
At this time, Jia Lu said: "Even if Aruwen is willing to send troops, it will be difficult to help. After all, Yunnan's roads are dangerous and the place is barren, and it cannot support an expedition of tens of thousands of troops."
After everyone thought about it, there was only one way left, and that was the Miao soldiers. If a strong force could appear between Huguang and Lingnan to restrain Tian Wan's leg, the pressure on Zhu's army would immediately be reduced.
And Zhu Jiajun can attack Chen Youding first.
Once we capture Fujian, have a port, and have a fleet, we can march into Guangdong and Guangxi.
At that time, it will not be Tianwan who surrounds Zhu Jiajun, but Zhu Jiajun who has created a large depth to attack Tianwan.
In history, Zhu Yuanzhang carried out his grand strategy flawlessly. He finally established a base in the south of the Yangtze River, but faced attacks from both sides. He risked his life to eliminate Chen Youliang and defeat Zhang Shicheng.
Places such as Fang Guozhen, Chen Youding, Guangxi, and Yunnan were all conquered by Zhu in his northern expedition after the founding of the country, and then he divided his forces to attack and wiped them out.
When the Ming Dynasty was established, the territory in Lao Zhu's hands was really not that much. Ming Yuzhen's Daxia Kingdom, which occupied Bashu, was not destroyed by Lao Zhu until the fourth year of Hongwu.
But now, because of Zhang Ximeng's relationship, Zhu Jiajun's power has grown much faster than in history. At the same time, he has also encountered more resistance because of his proposal to equally share the land.
Between gains and losses, you still gain more.
But there is no doubt that containing Tianwan has become a difficult problem that Zhu Jiajun must solve.
"Looking at it this way, we can only hope that Mr. Zhang can transform those tens of thousands of Miao soldiers, and we can burn a big fire behind Tianwan!"
Lao Zhu expressed his thoughts, Wen and Wu present, you look at me, I look at you.
They are aware of Zhang Ximeng's ability, but the problem is that even if Zhang Ximeng is capable, there are tens of thousands of Miao soldiers with completely different customs and habits, and they don't even understand the language.
It would be unbelievable to ask them to serve Zhu Jiajun.
Even Jia Lu and Zhu Sheng, who had always taken a good look at Zhang Ximeng, couldn't help but shake their heads.
This is too difficult.
But just when everyone was shaking their heads, something happened that shocked everyone again.
It's not complicated to say this. When the two sides were performing a show, a Miao soldier rushed onto the stage with a knife and wanted to kill Wu Datou!
Fortunately, we, Wu Qianhu, were experienced and ran away quickly when we saw that the situation was not good. The escorting soldiers also hurriedly came up and stopped the Miao soldier.
Wu Datou is fine, but the shock has just begun!
After all, some things and some feelings can transcend cultures and resonate among different groups of people... For example, that poor woman with white hair touched the hearts of many Miao soldiers.
They may not understand what it means to levy excessive taxes, take bribes and bend the law, or exploit all the benefits...but they can clearly see that white hair!
The boss oppressed and persecuted people, killing people alive and forcing the elders to grow old overnight.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in Miao Village.
The Miao soldier who wanted to kill Wu Datou took a full hour to wake up from his grief. What was on the stage was a play, not real!
yes!
Not true!
But why, why is the acting so real? It’s exactly the same as what happened in my family!
My mother was forced to grow gray overnight!
Why?
Why is this happening?
Finally, someone asked the most critical question.
Because those leaders exploit and exploit Tian Ding, because they don’t treat Tian Ding as a human being!
If you want to become a human, you must take up arms, overthrow the leader's control, take back your own acres of land, rescue your family, and live with dignity!
When the opera shines into reality, the lock in the heart is opened, and the barriers accumulated over thousands of years disappear.
Liu Bowen, Song Lian, and many Zhu Jiajun officials were finally able to penetrate deeply into the Miao soldiers... Just as Zhang Ximeng expected, once the truth was explained, the fighting spirit burst out of the Miao soldiers simply made Zhu Jiajun stunned.
More than 2,000 people, almost half of whom were named Yang, were pulled out of the army and accused of crimes. They burst into tears.
Zhang Ximeng let out a sigh of relief and finally succeeded.
But just when he was about to announce the good news to Lao Zhu, Yang Zhengren and others couldn't bear it anymore. The Zhu Jiajun relieved them of their military power without giving an explanation. The Miao soldiers are not under your control.
These people have lived in the Miao Village for generations and have been our family's slaves since childhood. How could they listen to Zhu Jiajun?
Don't be wishful thinking.
Let us lead the Miao soldiers.
Xu was silent for a long time, which caused these people to have a strong misjudgment, and even proposed to Zhang Ximeng the idea of returning to the military camp.
Facing several guys who wanted to die, what else could Zhang Ximeng say.
It happens to be the day of the public trial, let you have a good experience!
Yang Zhengren, Yang Tongtai, Yang Zhongtai... They were full of confidence and returned to the military camp with a victor's attitude.
Look, Zhu Jiajun can't do anything to us!
But when these people entered the military camp, they felt something was wrong. The air was filled with murderous intent. The soldiers looked at them with different eyes. They were no longer fearful and obedient, but with strong anger.
This, what's going on?
"Old General Yang, you are all generals of the Miao Army. According to the brothers, there are many injustices in the army... You should also listen to what you guys have to say and see how the case is handled!"
Zhang Ximeng said lightly and asked a few people to sit down.
But Yang Zhengren frowned, "Xiang Zhang, what do they know? They can only talk nonsense. It's better not to trouble Xiang Zhang. Leave it to us and we can take care of it..."
"really?"
"Really, we will definitely end it impartially."
Before Yang Zhengren finished speaking, an angry Miao Bing stood up and shouted loudly, "You are talking nonsense! We will not believe you! We are also upright people, not your slaves, no!"
In an instant, the Miao soldiers broke out, with overwhelming anger directed at a few high-ranking people... Yang Zhengren was stunned. Are these despicable people crazy?
"Prime Minister Zhang, they, they are guilty below! They are all disrespectful and should be severely punished!" Yang Zhengren roared angrily. Unfortunately, he did not understand the situation at all and continued to act arrogant and domineering as before.
Zhang Ximeng smiled lightly, "Really? Why do I feel that I deserve it!"
