Follow Zhu Yuanzhang to conquer the country

Chapter 227 Zhu Yuanzhang learned that Shi Jian Yin Shan lamented that this turned out to be my hometown in China!
After Taifeiyin asked, Xu Youwen handed over to Taifeiyin and said:
"Reporting to Zuo Cheng, although I have no good plan to deal with the two thieves Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Cheng, I have a friend Yang Wensu who has a detailed understanding of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Cheng."

"He even had contact with Zhang Cheng when he was in Chuzhou, but because he was squeezed out by Jiangnan Xingtai Fushou, he was unable to help Fushou deal with Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Cheng's Datong Society. Now he is just a guest next to me. If Zuo Cheng wants to know how to deal with Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Cheng, he can call him. "

It turned out that after Yang Yuangao designed Fu Shou and Ren Zhigong to be captured by the Chinese army, he secretly lurked next to Xu Youwen in order to find a way to continue to penetrate into the Yuan Dynasty.

Now Yang Yuangao can be mentioned by Xu Youwen in front of Tai Feiyin.

And Tai Feiyin is now wary of people like Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Cheng of Datong Society.

After all, Datong Society now occupies the richest area in the world, is also the most determined in anti-Yuan, and has the most unique ideas and technical methods.

Therefore, after Xu Youwen said this, Tai Feiyin immediately sent someone to invite Yang Wensu, that is, Yang Yuangao.

Yang Yuangao originally intended to enter the Yuan court as an official again so as to spy on secrets, so when he saw Taifei Yin, he bowed respectfully:
"Yang Yuangao, the former Central Secretary and Councilor of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provinces, met Zuo Cheng!"

"As colleagues, please sit down and talk."

Taifeiyin said something very polite and asked Yang Yuangao for some information about Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Cheng. Yang Yuangao answered fluently, which made Taifeiyin very satisfied and asked him if there was any way to deal with Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Cheng. .

Tai Feiyin echoed.

Because Yang Yuangao spoke what was in his heart.

"Isn't this kind of behavior contrary to ordinary ethics? After all, why do parents need to ask their children to understand their actions? This will undoubtedly lead to confusion of dignity!"

In this way, Yuan Ting will have less time to rectify its internal affairs.

Yang Yuangao nodded: "What Zuo Cheng said is that the key is that the ruling officials in the DPRK and the Central Government are willing to do this. But now, the ruling officials in the DPRK and the Central Government are all ordinary people, and they are obsessed with taking advantage of the enemy and supporting the bandits. Therefore, in my humble opinion, no one should be the first to do so. Only by getting rid of the traitors can we wipe out the bandits and restore our great Yuan!"

"Zuo Cheng, our newspaper is not to explain to the people, but to educate the people and guide them. It is a father teaching his son."

Then, Yang Yuangao said: "In addition to running newspapers, we should also immediately recycle banknotes to limit the proliferation of banknotes. At the same time, we should ban the planting of cotton, clear the land, and clarify the taxation policy to prevent the court from being like Zhang Shicheng in the future, and Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Cheng will waste no time. One soldier can control it."

Especially now that the situation is so bad for Yuan Ting.

After Yang Yuangao said this, Taifei Yin nodded: "That makes sense."

"Yes, this is indeed the scariest thing."

"The thieves want to seek wealth for the people, which undoubtedly means that these thieves are really determined to steal the world."

Yang Yuangao said: "What Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Cheng are best at is to deceive people in the name of the welfare of the people. For this purpose, they also set up a Datong Society to express that everyone in the Datong Society must be loyal to the Datong Society, which made many scholar-bureaucrats and common people. They were deceived, so even people like Liu Ji, Song Lian, and Wang Guangyang joined them. "

As someone who sympathized with the Tuotuo faction, he had long been dissatisfied with Wang Jianu, Hama and others.

Taifeiyin nodded after hearing this: "What you said is all right, but it is difficult to do it."

Yang Yuangao's true intention was revealed at this time.

And his real intention is to plunge Yuan Ting into a fierce party struggle again due to the current bad situation.

After hearing this, Tai Feiyin couldn't help frowning: "I once thought about suggesting to the court to set up a newspaper to refute the rebellious remarks of the China News, but I just thought about it later. Isn't this equivalent to admitting that the people can participate in world affairs? Isn't this Is it equivalent to the court exercising its power and having to explain it to the people? "

Yang Yuangao then said: "So, in my humble opinion, in order to deal with them, we need to ask the imperial court to organize the great scholars to publish newspapers to preach to the people, expose the hypocrisy of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhang Cheng and other Datong thieves, and let the people understand their The sinister intention also makes the people understand the benefits of observing etiquette, and know that the shame of breaking the rules is worse than starving to death! "

Even if the emperor wanted to rectify it, he was unable to rectify it.

Tai Feiyin did not see through Yang Yuangao's true purpose.

"So, even if I haven't come into contact with Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Cheng yet, I still feel that these two people are very scary."

Tai Feiyin nodded, and even shouted: "The treacherous officials are hateful! Even now, all the political affairs of my Yuan Dynasty have been abolished, and there is even a tendency that they will be controlled by thieves and bandits!"

Xu Youwen on the side is also a Confucian scholar who sympathizes with Tuotuo.

In his opinion, if Tuotuo hadn't been killed, Dayuan would not be where it is now. Most of Jiangsu and Zhejiang were occupied by bandits, and most of Huainan, Huguang and even Henan were occupied by bandits, and he would not have committed himself. A thief.

Therefore, Xu Youwen also said at this time: "Zuo Cheng, getting rid of the traitorous officials in the court is a top priority right now, and filing a report is a top priority. In my humble opinion, Zuo Cheng might as well ask Zhang Shide if he is willing to return to the court as a public servant. Help eliminate traitors."

Taifeiyin glanced at Zhang Shide.

Zhang Shide glanced at Xu Youwen with a complicated expression: "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is that you secretly attached yourself to Zuo Cheng, but you lied to Zhu Yuanzhang to the outside world, saying that you were following the orders of your brother in the Northern Expedition, but you were confined to Jining City and could not conquer it. At the same time, as long as the treacherous ministers in the court want to deal with Zuo Cheng, you Just cooperate with Zuo Cheng to continue to raise troops to the north, so that the traitorous officials in the court will have to rely on Zuo Cheng to resist you. At the same time, it will also give Zuo Cheng a reason to refuse the order of Jiao Zhao, and even use you to force His Majesty to get rid of the traitorous officials. "

Xu Youwen said so much, but he actually meant to let Zhang Shide cooperate with Taifei Yin to "raise the bandits to respect themselves".

In other words, Yuan Ting's central authority has also declined a lot due to successive unfavorable wars.

The feudal officials in many places have long had the idea of ​​​​supporting their troops and respecting themselves. This kind of mentality will intensify in history at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.

Taifeiyin was naturally willing to do this, so he nodded:

"This is a great plan!"

Then, Tai Feiyin looked at Zhang Shide: "If you don't want to, I will have to punish Qian Mingzhengdian, and the 20,000 brothers who were captured with you will also be buried alive together!"

Zhang Shide thought to himself that he could not accept the ideas of Datong Society. Now that his brother Zhang Shicheng was unwilling to rectify the internal affairs, he might as well join Yuan Ting and cooperate with Taifei Yin. Maybe Yuan Ting could be restored under Taifei Yin's control. He was energized and able to fight against the Datong Society, so he replied: "I am willing to surrender to the imperial court!"

Yang Yuangao on the side couldn't help but smile when he saw this.

But no one noticed his unfathomable smile.

Tai Feiyin and Xu Youwen were both smiling with joy at this time because Zhang Shide was willing to join their side.

Tai Feiyin then asked someone to untie Zhang Shide, and also asked him to sit down, and said: "I know that you are willing to join the imperial court, but you do not want to accept the concept of great harmony."

"Exactly."

"It's not that I'm humble and afraid of death and is willing to join Zuo Cheng, but I'm humble that I don't want to see that Datong Society can really take over the world in the future."

"A humble person only knows that loyalty is to the emperor, but does not agree with what concept of loyalty is loyalty."

Zhang Shide replied.

Taifeiyin nodded.

At this time, Xu Youwen smiled and said: "In that case, why not ask General Zhang to surrender your troops immediately."

Tai Feiyin also nodded.

Zhang Shide therefore accepted it and wrote a letter to Zhang Shicheng shortly afterwards, stating that he had secretly surrendered to Tai Fei Yin, the left prime minister of Huainan Province of the Yuan Dynasty, and that the general was pretending to be a soldier who fought against Tai Fei Yin during the Northern Expedition. Horse confrontation.

at the same time.

Yang Yuangao also had people pass the truth back to Jiqing Zhangcheng.

After learning about it, Zhang Cheng informed Zhu Yuanzhang of the situation.

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but said: "These rebel generals are landlords after all. Even though the China Newspaper has been promoting the concept of Datong and Chinese civilization for so long, it still doesn't take China to heart!"

"In order to keep enslaving the people, they still prefer to accept the captives as their masters, which is the same choice as many Confucian scholars! They are not even as smart as some Confucian scholars. At least many Confucian scholars still know which side the trend is, so they still choose Datong Society."

"Of course, Zhang Shide may also know. After all, he has no choice but to accept the captive as his master now."

"But regardless of whether he had no choice or not, there are still many people who don't want our Datong Society to win the world."

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhang Cheng as he spoke.

Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "They don't want to go back, but the general trend of the world cannot help them."

Zhu Yuanzhang asked Zhang Cheng at this time: "There should be news about Tang He soon?"

"It should be soon."

Zhang Cheng replied.
-
Yuwa had indeed led his warships to Ishimi Country at this time and occupied it. He also loaded all the silver mines here on ships, captured the Japanese here, and forced them to continue mining.

At the same time, Tang He also sent people back to inform Zhu Yuanzhang that he had occupied Shijian Kingdom and hoped to send some skilled miners to increase the mining of Shijian Yinshan.

Because Tang He had to admit that the Japanese were generally short in stature and were not good at mining silver mines. If domestic miners were sent here, it would undoubtedly greatly increase the mining speed.

Not long after Zhu Yuanzhang learned that Zhang Shide had defected to Taifeiyin, he received the news that Tang He had sent people to bring him back, and he also saw with his own eyes the large amount of silver that Tang He had sent people to bring back.

"There are still five hundred thousand taels on the way?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked Zheng Yuchun who had returned, with a look of surprise on his face.

Zheng Yuchun nodded: "I dare not hide it from the superiors. Shi Jianguo does have a large silver mine. The one million taels brought back are the savings of the local Japanese talents. Mr. Zhang is not wrong."

"So, that is indeed my hometown in China. Otherwise, how could Mr. Zhang know that there is a large silver mine there?"

"I, the Chinese descendants, are incompetent, and now I have completely forgotten this homeland, so that it is only now known to us people again!"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed with enlightenment.
