The road of the main god of cannon fodder female supporting role

Chapter 511 Alternative Salvation 33 [-] words

The soldiers of Jiatongguan had strict military discipline, and Fang Qizheng forbade them to answer the words of the Wushuang soldiers in order to prevent them from being taken away by the rebels below.

So none of the soldiers opened their mouths to answer the questions of the following people, but all of them answered in their hearts: "It's not fair!"

How can a general who is fair, caring for the world, and caring for the people be easily condemned and sent to remote places for many years without being reused.

However, those corrupt officials who have a vegetarian meal are promoted again and again. In this situation, who can stand it, and who can not feel resentful.

The soldiers didn't answer, and the people below didn't force it, but praised Wushuang for themselves: "If the old general is like this, life for us ordinary people will be even more difficult.

Fortunately, we met my family's wife, who also came from a poor background, and she felt pity for the suffering of us common people the most.

The queen gave us land, implemented the policy of ten taxes and two, and did not collect any exorbitant taxes. The queen also abolished corvee and replaced corvee with work.

Everyone went there voluntarily, and the overseer was not allowed to whip the common people who worked. The lady also taught us the skills of running a breeding farm, so that the common people can breed livestock on a large scale.

Because of these farms, meat is very cheap under the rule of the female monarch, and the common people also have extra money in their hands. Now everyone can afford meat, and many people can eat meat every day.

The female monarch broadens the wisdom of the people and opens free schools so that we can learn to read and write, so we don't have to be blind.

We are all poor people, and the imperial court treats us like pigs and dogs, tramples on us like mud under our feet, but we are all human beings, we want to live, and the Queen let us live.

If we can live, we want to live a better life and live a little more like a human being. The lady wants us to live a good life and live like a human being.

We are not rebelling, we just want to follow our queen, just like you loyally follow General Fang.

It’s just that the female monarch we follow loves the people like a son, and is a true wise monarch, while your old general Fang follows a fatuous and cruel monarch..."

The dozens of people sent by Wushuang were all eloquent people specially selected from the army.

Regardless of the fact that they are wearing armor worn by ordinary soldiers, they are actually military officials and aides, all of whom are full of tongues, and the soldiers of Jiatong Pass followed them unconsciously.

Fang Qizheng's face was flushed with anger, but he didn't know how to stop it. He was firm in his mind and would not be shaken by these people's words.

But he knew how much these words had an impact on his soldiers, and even the soldiers.

Finally, the soldiers below finally finished chatting with Jia Tongguan soldiers, and went back to eat.

Fang Qizheng breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly gave a lecture to the soldiers, with only one central idea, guard the Gatong pass, and don't be fooled by the other party.

The soldiers agreed resolutely. Looking at the resolute faces of the soldiers, Fang Qizheng was slightly relieved.

But at night, a group of Kongming lanterns flew into Gatong Pass, and scattered countless letters like rain, everywhere on the roof, treetops and ground.

Fang Qizheng took the letter and saw that it was not good. The words in the letter were really deceptive.

The bewitching words heard before the battle today had little effect. After all, only the soldiers on the city wall could hear them. He issued a strict order that the soldiers would keep their mouths shut and not affect the people in Jiatong Pass.

But if these bewitching remarks spread throughout Jiatongguan, the problem will be serious. If the people are moved by the bewitched mind after reading the letter, there will be endless troubles!

Fang Qizheng immediately ordered people to go out to search for all the letters that fell in Jiatong Pass, but it was too late, there were too many letters, and the ground was covered with a layer of snow as if it had fallen.

Even if Fang Qizheng hurriedly asked people to confiscate and destroy these letters, some people quickly hid one and read it secretly.

Those who could not read found someone who could read and read it secretly. Sure enough, as Fang Qizheng thought, this letter written by Wushuang aroused countless people's dissatisfaction with the imperial court, and they had infinite feelings about becoming a subject of Wushuang's rule. Yearn for.

Fang Qizheng didn't sleep all night, dealing with these letters, but the rumors still spread unstoppably.

When he was eating breakfast, he realized that the person who cooked for him was not thinking about the meal, because the porridge made by this old cook who had never made a mistake had a slight smell of burnt.

Outside, Wushuang's aides ran over to chat with the soldiers of Jiatongguan with their trumpets in hand.

Today, they chatted with Jia Tongguan soldiers about how they were oppressed in the past, how they joined the queen's command, and how they went from tenants to soldiers.

The plot is ups and downs, just like a wonderful story, the soldiers who heard the Gatong Pass were fascinated unconsciously, angry and sad for their hardships, and rejoiced for their good life.

Although the soldiers kept the military discipline and refused to speak, their eyes were peaceful, and they obviously had no killing intent or hostility towards the soldiers under Wushou.

On the third day, the people who came to chat brought a lot of jerky, and shouted that it would be a gift to give some food for the brothers to taste.

Then he pushed a catapult over on his own, and directly threw seven or eight large packages full of dried meat into Gatong Pass.

The distance of the catapult and the range of the archery are not within reach, so Fang Qizheng can only watch helplessly.

What made him most anxious was that his soldiers were not vigilant against the things thrown by the catapults.

Everyone was not too worried, but simply dodged, which showed that they had already developed a sense of identification with the rebels below.

Soldiers are agreeing that the other party is harmless, that the other party has no intention of attacking them, which is too dangerous.

Although the jerky thrown up didn't mean the soldier wanted to eat it, but the eyes drifted over unconsciously, and the instinctive movement of swallowing saliva couldn't be hidden.

Fang Qizheng sighed, and said to the lieutenant beside him: "Give them a share of the meat, first find a dog to see if there is any problem before eating."

He didn't have such a big skill to make his soldiers let go of eating meat, and he couldn't bear to stop the rare opportunity of toothbrush sacrifice.

Seeing that the soldiers were almost persuaded, Wushuang personally led people to appear outside Jiatong Pass to persuade Fang Qizheng.

Fang Qizheng looked at the young and excessively young Wushuang below, and felt a little emotional, she is really a woman who cannot be underestimated, and she is even more troublesome than all the rebels.

Wushuang looked up at Fang Qizheng, and said: "General Fang, I have admired your name for a long time, if General Fang is willing to surrender, I promise to reuse the old general.

It will never reduce the rights of the old general and disperse the soldiers under the old general. Your soldiers can always obey your orders. I wonder if the old general is willing to submit to me? "

Fang Qizheng looked at Wushuang unmoved, and snorted coldly: "I am a general conferred by the imperial court, and I am orthodox. You are just a traitor, and you dare to make me submit."

Wu Shuang was not angry either, and chuckled lightly and said: "Rebellious officials and thieves, the court is orthodox, there has never been a dynasty in this world that lasted forever.

The founding king of that dynasty was not the rebellious minister and traitor of the previous dynasty. I am a rebellious minister and traitor today, how can I know that I will not be the founding king of the country in the future.

People have life and death, and the four seasons have reincarnation, so it is naturally the same for a dynasty. When the country was founded, the emperor was wise and the ministers were virtuous, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

At the end of a dynasty, the emperor is fatuous, corrupt officials are everywhere, the common people have no means of living, and the people who are persecuted to the extreme rebel.

Are these rebellious officials and thieves wrong?It is the imperial court that is clearly wrong, just like people will die, like the four seasons will reincarnate, the decayed imperial court should be terminated.

Then, start a new dynasty that will allow the people to live and live well. At that time, the new dynasty will be orthodox. "

Fang Qizheng said: "Excessive words." He remained silent and did not speak again.

Wushuang continued: "Old General Fang, what is your original intention to lead the army to fight? To protect the family and the country?
Whose home is this home?Is it the home of thousands of people, or the home of the faint king and corrupt officials in the court?
What country are you defending?Is it a country where the country is prosperous and the people are safe, and the people live and work in peace and contentment?Or is it a country riddled with holes, where for the common people, the world is hell?
You desperately resist foreign enemies, what do you want?Are you protecting the people?But the people are not doing well either.

Or the purpose of your protection is to let the faint king continue to abuse the people, and the corrupt officials continue to run amok, to protect this dark world where the light of day is not seen, so are all your actions meritorious deeds or sins? "

Seeing Fang Qizheng's lips pursed tightly, finally showing a hint of wavering on his face, Wushuang didn't continue, leaving a sentence: "Old General Fang, I hope you can think carefully about my problem today."

After finishing speaking, Wushuang turned his horse's head and returned to the barracks with people cheering.

After Wushuang left, Jia Tong closed it, and all the soldiers were in a daze.

They are all thinking, is their desperate resistance adding more suffering to the suffering people?
Is it because they stop the army of the unparalleled female monarch, and let more people sink and struggle in hell for a day?
Fang Qizheng saw the shaking and bewilderment on the faces of the soldiers, but he didn't say anything this time because he was also in a mess.

When he left the city wall and returned to the mansion, he saw too many people with blank faces and patrolling soldiers in a trance.

The atmosphere of the entire Jiatongguan was like a tight string, as if it would be disconnected with a light flick. Everyone was confused, and there were too many people who were shaken.

In the evening, Fang Qizheng held his rice bowl and didn't move his chopsticks for a long time. His wife, Mrs. Liu, brought him a piece of vegetable and persuaded him, "Master, hurry up and eat. You still have to guard the gate. If you don't eat enough, how can you do it?"

Fang Qizheng looked at his old wife, and suddenly said, "Ma'am, do you think I did something wrong?"

Mrs. Liu smiled gently, and said: "I'm just a housewife, and I don't know much about the principles of family, country and world.

But I know one thing, the people are the most satisfied, and the least willing to make their lives turbulent.

As long as they can survive, even if they are short of food and clothing, even if they have to suffer from hunger, as long as they can survive, they will farm in peace, raise children, and reproduce from generation to generation. "

Fang Qizheng sighed deeply: "Yes, if you can survive, how can the common people be willing to rebel."

After eating a meal without taste, Fang Qizheng was still thinking about Wushuang's question when he went to bed at night.

Especially the sentence that Wushuang asked at the end, was what he did a merit or a sin?
Before that, he always felt that he had a clear conscience for his actions, but if it was really because of his protection that more corrupt officials could continue to harm the people and make the people live in dire straits, was he really right?

After thinking about it all night, Fang Qizheng, who woke up early, felt that his energy was a little weak. This was not the reason for staying up late. He had been training for three consecutive days without sleep, and he was also full of energy.

The essential reason why he was haggard and mentally exhausted after not sleeping all night was because his spirit was hit and his persistence in himself was shaken.

On the way to the city wall, Fang Qizheng had a rare feeling of cowardice and fear. It was really because the other party's words were too strong, making people feel uneasy.

All the way to the city wall, Fang Qizheng found that all the soldiers looked a little ugly, and some soldiers even threw away the weapons in their hands.

Fang Qizheng's heart tightened when he saw the state of these soldiers, and then he heard a burst of crying from under the city wall.

This distance was too short, as if it was under the city wall, already within the range of the siege, but no one was attacking the city, and none of the soldiers on the wall wanted to fight.

Fang Qizheng hurriedly ran a few steps, reached the edge of the city wall, looked down, and saw a large group of ragged people gathered below.

As soon as these common people found Fang Qizheng's probe, they knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Fang Qizheng.

One of the old men spoke first: "Old General Fang, please save us, my two sons died in the corvee, and my two grandsons were dragged into the corvee.

I'm really afraid that they will also die in the corvee. I beg General Fang, please let the lady pass by, let the lady save my grandson, please! "

The old man began to kowtow, and another bony woman cried out: "Old General Fang, my daughter is beautiful, and the county magistrate's son took a fancy to her, and forced my daughter to become a concubine.

My daughter refused and bit the county magistrate's son. The beast became so enraged that he asked his subordinates to humiliate my daughter in public. My daughter committed suicide by hitting the wall unbearably humiliated.

My son-in-law and husband went to file a complaint, but they were arrested by the county magistrate Luo Zhi and beaten to death in prison. I begged the old general Fang to let the lady go, punish the corrupt officials and avenge my family!Please! "

One after another, the common people told about the tragic injustice they had encountered. They knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Fang Qizheng crying, and begged Fang Qizheng to let Wushuang's army pass by.

Fang Qizheng's eyes were tearing up when he heard that, he wanted to kill the younger brother of the emperor's favorite concubine even though he gave up his career, it was because he had an upright character and couldn't stand the oppression of the common people.

But there was never a moment when he faced the injustice and misery suffered by the people so intuitively like now, full of blood and tears.

And all these tragic injustices that the people have encountered are all done by the corrupt officials he protects behind.

"General, general, shall we surrender?"

Suddenly a soldier spoke to Fang Qizheng weakly, his eyes were red, and he looked at Fang Qizheng with a little shame.

He was ashamed that he had let down the general's kindness to him, and wanted to surrender, but he was more determined, and he didn't want to fight for those corrupt officials and foolish kings.

With the first one to speak, the remaining soldiers also opened their mouths one after another, expressing their willingness to surrender to Fang Qizheng.

They really couldn't do anything to these people who were forced to rebel because they couldn't survive.

At this time, a group of people in Jiatong Pass also rushed to the city wall, begging Fang Qizheng to surrender, not to continue to protect the fatuous emperor and the corrupt officials who oppressed the people.

Fang Qizheng looked at the soldiers and civilians who asked him to surrender, and felt his heart shake. At this moment, he finally made up his mind, closed his eyes, and said, "Okay, I surrender."

Fang Qizheng's decision quickly reached Wushuang's ears, and she took Gu Yanzhi, Wang Ling and all her staff to accept the surrender in person.

Standing in front of Jiatong Pass on horseback, Wushuang watched with his own eyes that the suspension bridge of Jiatong Pass was lowered little by little. Fang Qizheng, who had removed his armor, walked out step by step with his soldiers.

Fang Qizheng's face was very pale, and his energy and energy disappeared. He held the surrender book in his hand, and he walked up to Wushuang's horse and was about to kneel down.

Wushuang hurriedly jumped off the horse, bent down to support Fang Qizheng who was about to kneel down: "The old general can't do it, you are a hero, and you surrendered for the people of the world, and the people will be grateful for your kindness.

I know that you have a deep affection for the imperial court, and it would be difficult for you to attack the imperial court.

During the civil war in the Central Plains, the barbarians outside the pass were still staring at each other, attacking and harassing them frequently, and the people in the border pass suffered unspeakably.

When I get through the border state capital, I will send you to fight against the barbarians, so as to prevent you from fighting with the imperial court. I don't know if General Fang is willing. "

Fang Qizheng did not expect Wushuang to arrange this for him. He has been in the army all his life and cannot do without the battlefield, and he hopes to show his strengths.

But he also didn't want to go against the court that he had been loyal to for so long. He didn't expect that the other party would think of it for him and take care of all his thoughts.

The most important thing is that he didn't reduce his military power, didn't disrupt his soldiers, and let him bring his own soldiers. How much trust is this.

Isn't what the general is looking for such a king who can trust him infinitely?
Fang Qizheng burst into tears suddenly, and knelt down sincerely: "How can I be virtuous, I have been treated so favorably by the queen, and I will die for the queen in the future, and I will never betray."

At this moment, Fang Qizheng was really convinced by Wushuang, willing to offer his loyalty to Wushuang, and recognized her as his monarch.

Wushuang helped Fang Qizheng up again, and said with a smile: "You are such a famous general who deserves to go down in history, it is my luck to have such a great talent like you."

After breaking through Jiatong Pass, Wushuang has five state capitals under Wushuang. The imperial court sent troops, and Wushuang personally led the troops to fight against the imperial court.

There are also two state capitals on Wang Meng's side. As long as they fight over, they will border the Hu people. Wushuang sent Wang Meng because he didn't want Fang Qizheng to join the war.

Unexpectedly, Fang Qizheng figured it out by himself, and took the initiative to command his soldiers to cooperate with Wang Meng in fighting.

Now that he has taken refuge in the new master, he should be loyal and not miss the old master, otherwise how can he be worthy of the female monarch's kindness and care for him.

Fang Qizheng is the best at fighting. Although Wang Meng is naturally sensitive to war, he is still young and cannot compare with Fang Qizheng in using soldiers.

Fang Qizheng cherished Wang Meng's talent, and took the initiative to teach him how to fight. In this way, the two state capitals were defeated, and there was some teacher-student friendship.

At the border, Fang Qizheng re-arranged the defense line and prepared to fight the barbarians. Wang Meng left enough logistics supplies before returning to support Wushuang's battle.

The imperial court directly gathered 50 troops to fight against Wushuang this time, because Wushuang's annexation and development were too fast.

Wushuang has already become popular, and has fought against the imperial army several times, and won two consecutive battles with the bravery of his soldiers.

Soon Wang Meng returned with his troops, and the two armies attacked back and forth, catching the imperial court by surprise, and advancing to two states, including the imperial court's money bag, Nanshui Erzhou.

So far, only 50 of the imperial court's 30 troops were left. Except for those who fled to death in the 20 miles, the 12 troops fell into Wushuang's hands and became surrendered troops.

Now that Wushuang has taken down half of the territory, the imperial army has further shrunk back.

Wushuang did not chase after the imperial court, but went back and cleared up a few scattered rebel teams, and four more state capitals entered.

The annexation and expansion were too strong, and now most of the imperial land is in the hands, Wushuang did not continue to fight, because it was already deep winter, and the soldiers would suffer if they fought.

The most important thing is that Wushuang has annexed too many sites too quickly, and it takes a while to digest.

Distributing land to the people, promulgating new policies, appeasing the people, selecting officials, etc., a lot of things are too busy to die.

After Wushuang finally settled the chores, and decided to distribute the good seeds for the common people to plant next year, it was already the time of the Chinese New Year, and Wushuang began to distribute Chinese New Year benefits to the army again.

Far away at the border, Fang Qizheng, who had just won a battle after chasing the Hu people, returned with his soldiers refreshed.

As soon as I entered the city, I found that today's soldiers were abnormally excited. Before Fang Qizheng asked, the deputy general who guarded the city ran over and happily told Fang Qizheng that the supplies for the New Year from the female monarch had arrived.

The adjutant happily said to Fang Qizheng: "This time, the lady sent a lot of livestock. She can share a chicken and a duck with each of the soldiers, and she can also share ten catties of meat. The lady is really generous."

Fang Qizheng saw the joy on the adjutant's face, and couldn't help but said: "Look at your worthless appearance, don't tell me the lady is missing your meat, don't we eat meat every day?"

The adjutant rubbed his nose embarrassingly, and said: "I'm not used to it, although I have never been short of meat, but after decades of lack of meat, I can't change it for a while. happy habit."

Fang Qizheng understood quite well, and lamented that he really met the Ming Lord.

Since guarding the border, the female monarch has sent all kinds of military supplies over on time, and they are very generous every time, with everything to eat, drink and wear.

All the soldiers only had to face the barbarian, thinking about how to defeat the barbarian, and they didn't have to worry about food and clothing. Fang Qizheng had never experienced such a comfortable life.

Whenever he fought in the past, he could not spend most of his mind and the court grinding military pay, grinding food, grinding weapons, grinding clothes, and all kinds of grinding.

The soldiers in the army were happy, and the people were also happy. Wushuang subsidized all the people with ten catties of miscellaneous grains, one fish for each family, and one catty of meat.

There are too many people, and no amount of Wushuang can afford to subsidize them. We can only temporarily subsidize these, so that the people can live a year without starvation and can eat some meat.

These people did not expect that the new queen would give them such a big benefit. Every household was very excited and unbelievable when they saw the meat delivered to them by the soldiers.

When they recovered, some knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of Wushuang, and some cried bitterly and were speechless.
