Chapter Twenty-Three Gou Rich Do Not Forget(1/2)
Chapter 23: If you are rich and noble, you will never forget each other
Li Shimin has never been a person who can be subservient. He has his ideals and ambitions. Although Zhang Zhongjian is a tyrant on the sea, it is still not enough to make Li Shimin surrender to him.
At the beginning, when he was persecuted to leave the Central Plains, Li Shimin really resented Chen Ying very much because Chen Ying was too unfair. If Chen Ying did not help each other, he would definitely be able to defeat Li Jiancheng and achieve the final victory.
However, after arriving in the Fusang continent, Li Shimin's mood was changing little by little. The climate here was pleasant, the rain was abundant, and the resources were very rich. Even if it was known as the country of Tianfu or the 800-mile Qinchuan, compared with this place, it was simply a remote mountain.
There are sweet, crisp and delicious fruits here, there is a corn plant that can be produced at least 4 taels, as well as countless gold, silver, steel and copper. Li Shimin didn't know how many times he saw the leaders of the indigenous tribes here use gold to make beds and build houses with silver.
This made Li Shimin originally thought that he would never return to the Central Plains in this life and slowly come back to life. The people here are hardworking and simple, but they all encountered stupid pig-like leaders.
Now, Li Shimin understood Chen Ying's true intention. Zhang Zhongjian would only abuse his force. He could dominate for a while and would never be able to unify the Fusang continent. Li Shimin insisted that he could do this.
Cheng Zhijie was a little hesitant, and Hou Mo and Chen Xu were also hesitant.
After all, the strength of the two sides is too great. If he had 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hand, Cheng Zhijie would dare to seize Teotihuacan City. But now, he had to think about it again.
Li Shimin looked at the troops around him, no longer cared about it, and shouted at the top of his voice: "There are no cowards in the Qin Palace. Every soldier who can enter the Qin Palace is a real man, and he is my life and death brother of Li Shimin."
Cheng Zhijie and Hou Mo and Chenxu stood silent.
Li Shimin roared in his thunderous voice: "Did you forget the oath we made?"
Cheng Zhijie shouted: "The black military uniform is the glory of the warriors, and the Qilin battle robe is the symbol of the hero!"
Li Shimin shouted: "The sky above our heads is the sky of the Tang Dynasty! The thick soil under our feet is the land of the Tang Dynasty! The people behind us are the people of the Tang Dynasty! We swear to shake the guards to the death!"
All the guards of the Qin King's Mansion shouted in unison: "Slay the guards to death!"
At this time, the battle in Teotihuacan City had ended, and the attacking side won the final victory. The leader of the lord of Teotihuacan City was cut down with a knife and held in his hand.
The leader yelled at the people around him.
Li Shimin pointed to the tall man with his upper body exposed and his chest covered with vigorous hair, saying, "What did he say?"
Although he has been in Fusang mainland for more than three months, Li Shimin still cannot understand the indigenous languages here, but Du Ruhui can listen roughly.
Du Ruhui explained: "He said, listen... from now on... the men among you are all my slaves! The women among you are all my concubines! You belong to me like a cow, you are not allowed to resist or run away! Otherwise, they will be chopped into meat paste!"
The indigenous soldiers on the attacking side held their weapons like ghosts and howling. Then the indigenous leader was croaking and saying something to his own troops. Although Li Shimin couldn't understand his words, he could basically feel that it should be a sharing of spoils.
Sure enough, these soldiers began to scatter, some rushed into the crowd kneeling on the ground, pulled up a woman they liked, and then carried it up, venting their original animal desires on the spot.
Teotihuacan was in panic. The arrested women struggled and begged for mercy. The enemies laughed loudly. A young and strong man jumped up to resist and was immediately dragged aside and chopped off his head and hung it on the wooden stake, and his body was cut into pieces like meat paste.
Li Shimin yelled: "Capture the thief and capture the king!"
As he said that, Li Shimin directly targeted the tall leader and rushed forward.
Cheng Zhijie then shouted: "Run!"
These enemies had already discovered Li Shimin and other uninvited guests. They were stunned and immediately rushed towards Li Shimin and others with weapons.
Li Shimin raised his sharp horse spear and stabbed it straight down with one spear. He stabbed it in from the mouth of an indigenous soldier in the lead, and the sharp spear blade penetrated from the back of his head.
The soldier stared at Li Shimin with his eyes as if he was a dead fish. Li Shimin did not hesitate. He pulled out the horse spear in his hand, then pulled and twisted it. The sharp spear blade cut the enemy's throat and cervical spine, and blood sprayed Li Shimin himself.
Li Shimin's wrist shook, and the blade of the spear lifted up the head. Before the head could roll down, the horse spear in Li Shimin's hand swung up and slapped towards the head, just like playing a baseball. With one spear, the head flew away like a ball, and blood was pouring all the way.
Everything just happened in the flash.
The two sides officially fought, and the well-trained Qin King protected 124 warriors, formed a diamond formation, and rushed towards the position of the enemy leader.
If Li Shimin's style of fighting at this time is in the Central Plains, it is simply not worth mentioning. It is nothing more than a shield in front of him and a spear in the second place. There are more than forty crossbowmen on the inner side, shooting archery rains into the distance frantically.
Li Shimin and others attacked decisively and resolutely. At this time, the soldiers of the Qin Palace guards seemed to be hungry for many days and looked weak. Now, they suddenly put them into a sheep pen. In just a moment, after smelling fresh flesh and blood, the hungry tiger, which was originally lying on the verge of dying and standing bones, suddenly burst out with light and roaring for a long time...
Seeing that Li Shimin and others had only more than 100 people, the indigenous leader didn't care at all, because he still had more than 3,000 people, but he didn't understand that no matter how many sheep there were, he was not a match for the tiger.
The battle lasted for only about a quarter of an hour, and Li Shimin was like chopping melons and vegetables, killing all the flesh and blood. Finally, Li Shimin led 124 people and rushed into the enemy formation for about 500 steps.
In fact, fighting is definitely not as simple as one plus one equals two.
The Qin Prince's Mansion under Li Shimin's command was one of the best elite troops in the entire Tang Dynasty. Unfortunately, these natives still don't know what war is.
Li Shimin felt that it was necessary for him to teach them how to fight.
Originally, Li Shimin formed a diamond formation because he was in a desperate situation and fought with his back. However, during the battle, he realized that these natives would not fight at all, and would only rely on brute force to kill randomly. The most important thing is that they did not understand what cooperation was.
Li Shimin felt that this style of playing was too conservative at this time, so he temporarily changed the order: "Three people in a group, kill the enemy!"
Therefore, the guardians of the Qin Palace changed a three-man team, two attacks and one defense, or two defenses and one attack. These indigenous soldiers were soon so scared that they dared to step forward because of the deaths of five or six hundred people.
When Hou Mo Chenxu shot over the indigenous leader with an arrow, he was soon killed and defeated.
After the death of the indigenous leader, Teotihuacan, which was originally like a sheep, also began to join the battle. None of the indigenous enemies were spared from being immune to being corpses. The angry people of Teotihuacan could not forgive the group of robbers who killed their relatives. None of the enemies' corpses were intact. After the battle ended, some people still bit the bodies of the indigenous enemies, and some even bite their flesh and swallowed them.
The battle finally ended, and Li Shimin became the king who was above all else. They seized the city of Teotihuacan at the cost of three people killed and thirty-one wounded.
All the survivors of Teotihuacan City knelt in front of Li Shimin.
Li Shimin was like a bloody man on his body, laughing and said, "Du Ruhui, what... Teotihuacan City changed its name immediately, it was changed to Qin Wang City. You have the Prime Minister of Qin, Cheng Zhijie is the left general of Qin, Hou Mo Chenxu is the right general, I will go to sleep for a while..."
Du Ruhui was also so angry that he was so angry that a big city with a population of 200,000 was actually built like this?
All of this made Du Ruhui feel a little unreal.
However, the whole point of view was that all the surrendered people had to accept this fact.
Du Ruhui knew that Li Shimin was exhausted and did not disturb him. So he ordered Cheng Zhijie and Hou Mo and Chenxu to recruit an army respectively, with ten Zhechong Mansions.
It took not long, and the "Qin King Flag" on the Chinese official script was rising slowly.
Du Ruhui also selected more than a dozen craftsmen according to Li Shimin's instructions to chisel out the indigenous texts above the city gate and reopened to the Qinwang City.
...
Chang'an, Imperial Study Room.
Wei Zheng took Li Jiancheng's appointment and quickly shied away: "Your Majesty, I am not qualified to be the Minister of Shangshu Right Pushe. There are many ministers in the court with older qualifications and stronger abilities. If Your Majesty asks me to take office, all the officials will definitely complain that Your Majesty is a nepotist."
Li Jiancheng shook his head and said, "I want you to be the Minister of Shangshu, not to be an official, but to do things."
Chen Ying nodded with relief and said solemnly: "Simplify the official posts. Someone must do such offensive things. If you don't do them, then your Majesty can only do them yourself."
Wei Zheng smacked his lips and looked at Li Jiancheng helplessly.
Li Jiancheng nodded slowly and smiled: "You don't have to bear this infamous reputation, I still have this kind of burden!"
Wei Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "I know that in the end, I will take the blame. Since Your Majesty wants me to be the right servant of the Minister of the Shang Dynasty, then Fang Xuanling, the initiator, cannot be left out of the matter."
Chen Ying looked at Li Jiancheng and Wei Zheng without saying a word.
He smiled bitterly in his heart. In history, Wei Zheng was famous for being upright and good at admonishing. However, he did not expect that in this time and space, Wei Zheng actually exchanged roles with Fang Xuanling. Wei Zheng became the right servant of the Shangshu, and Fang Xuanling became the censor, the right minister of the Shangshu, and the minister of the disciples.
It's really impermanent.
Li Jiancheng smiled and said, "I am ready to appoint Fang Xuanling as the right chief of the Shangshu, and still serve as the subordinate minister. I will help you take charge of the Ministry of Personnel and take charge of this matter in the center."
...
In the lobby, the envoy of Xiangqianzhong read out the imperial edict and handed it to Fang Xuanling.
After reciting the imperial edict, Fang Xuanling took over the imperial edict.
All the officials surrounded Fang Xuanling.
The doctor of the Menxia Provincial Department smiled and said, "Congratulations to Xuanling, Gao Ju, the Right Chief of the Shangshu!"
Fang Xuanling gave a faint gift.
The junior official from the ministry said: "Xuanling has experienced hardships, and has three ups and downs, and he will definitely be the minister in the future."
Another official said: "Oh, how do you explain this?"
The little official smiled and said, "Fang Xuanling was the chief minister of the King of Qin (the fourth rank). He was defeated in the Battle of Qianshuiyuan. He lost his official position and was appointed as the chief officer of the King of Qin (the seventh rank). Later, he became the chief officer of the chief general of the chief general of the prince of the King of Qin and became a prisoner for the case of abolishing the King of Qin. Thanks to His Majesty the Emperor, he ignored the past and re-activated it. In a few months, he was transferred from the chief clerk of the seventh rank to the chief clerk of the fifth rank, and also served as the counselor. In less than three months, he was promoted to the position of the right prime minister. The fourth rank, the right prime minister of the Shangshu, was only one step away from the prime minister..."
The doctor under the disciple nodded frequently.
An official squeezed to Fang Xuanling and said, "Xuanling, I will go to the cabinet to become the prime minister in the future, don't forget that we are here!" The officials agreed.
Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "Where, where? If you are rich and noble, you will never forget each other. If you don't dislike it, can you let Wei Zheng write down your names?"
The officials agreed.
Before Fang Xuanling was arrested, he picked up his pen and began to record the names of his colleagues one by one.
The doctor at the disciple smiled and said, "Xuanling is a kind person with a temperament and kindness! He was born in the Liu family in Xiahedong, Liu Zhiyong!"
Fang Xuanling really wrote the eight words "Liu Zhiyong, the doctor of the Ministry of Education."
"Yes, it's so refreshing!" Another official smiled and said, "I'm Zhang Nianzu, Fufeng Zhang, and I'm also a member of the Ministry of Education.
Fang Xuanling wrote down Zhang Nianzu's name again.
Another official said: "Just Guo Donglin, I will pick up the remains of the people in the province!"
...
While Fang Xuanling was chatting and laughing with officials in the Junxia Province, Wei Ting had already reported to Li Jiancheng at this time.
Li Jiancheng, who was preparing for lunch, threw all his chopsticks out of anger, slapped the table, and shouted: "Is this really the case?"
Wei Ting said with contempt: "The province of the country is so lively, just like the East City."
