Chapter 1016 Strong Army
Fuwang Zhu Changxun is a big fat man, this is certain, Yang Feng visually measured it, and his weight was at least two hundred catties or more.
At this moment, Zhu Changxun's smiling appearance is no different from the shopkeeper in an ordinary shop, the only difference may be the eight-clawed python robe on his body that only princes can wear.
It is recorded in the history of the Ming Dynasty that Zhu Changxun is purely a person who wants money and does not want to die, when Li Zicheng attacked the city, the civil and military forces of the city begged him to pay for the reward of the defending army, but this guy did not pull out a dime, and finally Li Zicheng captured him after entering the city, and specially opened a Fulu drinking party, washed him and put him into the Ding and cooked it with a deer, so that the whole army could enjoy it together.
However, this statement was despised by later historians, after all, although Zhu Changxun was greedy and lustful, he still had a sense of crisis at least, how could he give up his wealth and his life to such a point.
Fortunately, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, a more famous scholar Peng Sunyi's "Liukou Zhi" had a more detailed record of this history, when Zhu Changxun sensed the crisis, he summoned the generals of Luoyang, and after the good words, he opened the treasury and moved out the grain and rewarded the soldiers of the three armies with heavy money.
It is precisely because of this that Li Zicheng paid a lot of casualties to take Luoyang.
After taking Luoyang, Li Zicheng hated Zhu Changxun, the initiator, and after catching him, he summoned the generals to come, and cut off a large piece of his meat in front of everyone, chopped it and stirred it with venison as a snack to share with the generals.
And this history was also adapted by the Manchu Qing Tartars who liked to play the word prison to tamper with history, and it was directly written into the "History of the Ming Dynasty".
At this moment, the Fu Wang, who was eaten by the Liukou in another historical time and space, was enthusiastically holding Yang Feng's hand, "The Lone King has long heard of the name of the Duke of Xinguo, but unfortunately he didn't see it, and today he finally got what he wanted, he was really full of joy, and he also invited the Duke of Xinguo to enter the palace with the Lone King, and a banquet has been prepared inside, and the Lone King wants to wash the dust for the Duke of Xinguo." ”
Yang Feng smiled slightly, broke free of his hand without a trace, and then said: "The last general has thanked the prince for his love, but now tens of thousands of soldiers under the command of the last general are still sleeping outside the city, how can he leave the soldiers to enjoy it first." I also hope that the prince can allow the last general to come to the palace to listen to the prince's teachings after settling the soldiers of the three armies. ”
As soon as Yang Feng said this, the faces of many people around him changed slightly.
Yin Luzhong, the governor who had just arrived, hurriedly took a few steps forward and said dissatisfiedly: "Duke Xinguo, the prince invited you to enter the mansion to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you, how can you live up to the prince's kindness?" This is not the way to be a courtier. ”
Yang Feng laughed: "Lord Yin, don't you hear that the generals will not be subject to military orders abroad." This duke came to Henan to suppress bandits by His Majesty's will, how could it be because of his appetite and delayed His Majesty's major affairs, presumably this is not what the prince wants to see, right? ”
"This ......"
Yin Luzhong paused for a moment and secretly looked at Zhu Changxun.
To be honest, Zhu Changxun was also very unhappy at the beginning, King Gu knew that you were the emperor's confidant, and he came to understand the siege of Luoyang this time, so King Gu was so polite to you, but this is not a reason why you don't take King Gu in your eyes.
You must know that even if Zhu Youxiao sees this king, he has to shout Uncle Huang, you kid dare to refute my face?
originally wanted to get angry, but he thought about it, although he was nominally a dignified vassal king, there were really not many people in the entire Ming Dynasty who could put him in his eyes except for the emperor, but in fact? Except for the seven or eight hundred guards, palace maids, and eunuchs in the palace, the others of the vassal king can't command at all, not to mention a prince like Yang Feng who has a heavy army, if he really wants to get angry, he can only bring humiliation on himself.
After thinking about this, Zhu Changxun's anger that had just emerged immediately disappeared without a trace.
"It's okay...... Xin Guogong is reasonable, for the generals to fight outside the natural to share weal and woe with the soldiers, since Xin Guogong is concerned about the soldiers outside the city, then the lonely can not be indifferent. Someone's coming......"
"Whoa!"
Immediately a eunuch stepped forward.
"Go...... Tell the steward to prepare 500 stone of grain, 100 pigs, 100 jars of wine, and 30,000 taels of silver, and go with Gu and Xinguo Gong to reward the three armies outside the city. ”
"Ah......h
The eunuch next to him was stunned, the sun came out of the west today, is this still the stingy prince on weekdays? He actually wants to reward the three armies?
Ignoring the stunned eunuch, Zhu Changxun's eyes widened.
"Are you deaf and didn't hear Lone's words? Hurry up! ”
"Whoa! The slave and maid will go right away! ”
Ignoring the eunuch who was running away, Zhu Changxun turned his head to Yang Feng and smiled: "Xinguo Gong, the Lone King is making his own decisions this time, you won't be surprised, right?" ”
Yang Feng glanced at Zhu Changxun with some surprise, and then said with a smile: "The prince has a great Ming soldier in his heart, that's a good thing, how can the last general be strange, since this is the case, the prince and the last general have been wronged." ”
"Hahaha...... that's good, in that case, let's go!"
As a dignified vassal king, Zhu Changxun's prototype naturally can't be too simple, in addition to the sedan chair dedicated to the vassal king, there must also be eunuchs, palace maids and guards to accompany him, after a chicken and dog jump, the group finally set off.
The ability of the Chinese people to gossip has always been first-class, and in less than half an hour, the news that King Fu was going out of the city to reward the Jiang Ning army who came to the aid immediately spread all over the streets and alleys of Luoyang City.
In this era of lack of entertainment, it is rare to have such an opportunity to see the excitement, how could the people in Luoyang City miss it, and soon countless people in Luoyang City who got the news began to call friends and flock to the north city gate, and when King Fu and his party arrived, the outside of the city was already densely packed with people who came to see the excitement.
Under the expulsion of the guards of King Fu's Mansion, Zhu Changxun and his party finally came to the north gate, and the figure of Jiang Ningjun and his party also appeared in front of them.
The snow was still falling, and a sergeant in a green uniform was standing in a line in the open space outside the city, down to his ankles.
Despite the howling north wind, this army remained motionless in the cold wind, and the team that had been lined up was a straight line from any angle, and there was no sound except the neighing of horses in the tens of thousands of troops, and a solemn atmosphere came to the face.
The people who had come to see the excitement were still pointing and laughing at the army, but gradually the sound of laughter slowly disappeared, and even the naughtiest children were too frightened to speak, and the whole land began to become silent.
However, Yin Luzhong, the governor of Luoyang, Lu Dayou, the political envoy, Yue An, the envoy of the procuratorate, and Zhou Yan, the chief soldier of Luoyang, looked pale. It was the first time they had seen such a solemn and strict strong army.
