Chapter 449
There is a saying in Go called "No Regrets".As a chess player, no matter whether you plan in every possible way or just let it go, once you make a move, you can no longer regret the move.

The same is true for rebellion, either you will be a good citizen honestly, or you will go all the way to the dark.

Ren Chen and others "see only thieves eating meat, but don't see thieves being beaten". They are jealous of Zhang Shun and others who have been in high positions in just two years, so they easily become rebellious.

When they encounter difficulties, it is too late to regret it.Even if they want to go back on their word and prepare to cut off their heads with a knife, the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who receive the credit will not agree.

When Zhang Shun got the news that Ren Chen and others had raised troops in Yuzhou, Zhang Shun couldn't believe his ears.

What do you mean by "If there is a way to heaven, you don't go, but if you don't have a way to hell, you come by yourself"?These people perfectly interpreted this sentence.

Zhang Shun never expected that when he led the army to invite them to revolt together, they would shirk in every possible way.But when they turned around and left, they killed officials and rebelled by themselves, and separated themselves.

Don't they really think that the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are Bodhisattvas made of clay, and Arhats made of paper?But when the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty arrive, I'm afraid there will be a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood in the city of Yuzhou.

Zhang Shun hurriedly called Xiao Qinhu, Chen Jindou, Li Jiyu and others to discuss the matter, but unexpectedly, Chen Jindou said directly: "My lord, don't bother. After you go back, they kept me in the Ren Mansion just to ask me about what I said in the past."

"Master Ren is not a person who has lived under others for a long time, and he has always made friends with heroes, and he has a wicked heart. Now they are taking advantage of my rebel army's absence, so they have the heart to compete with us. If the lord goes to help him now, On the contrary, it caused suspicion, on the contrary, I was afraid that the lord would seek his territory."

"Anyway, this bandit bird has already raised his troops, so I'm not afraid of his repentance. In this way, the lord's goal of attracting officers and soldiers has been achieved, so why not do it? But when they are all killed, the lord will come forward again." Only by cleaning up the mess can we show the benevolence of the lord!"

Zhang Shun also knew that this was the truth, but still couldn't help sighing: "But these many lives are going to be lost here, how can I bear it!"

Chen Jindou curled his lips and said, "It doesn't matter much, as long as we don't die!"

Zhang Shun is not the Holy Mother, let alone the Holy Mother whore.If you want him to sacrifice himself to save others regardless of the consequences, that is absolutely unwilling.After feeling a lot, how should I live my life?
Originally, according to Zhang Shun's plan, after attracting the attention of the officers and soldiers to the east, they took the opportunity to return to Baodu Village and continue farming.

It's just that the government has not yet had time to mobilize officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress, and Ren Chen and others are rioting nearby, so it would be a waste of effort to just wander around like this.

It happened that Zhang Shun had earned a lot of food in Songxian, Yiyang, Dengfeng and Yuzhou successively, and there was no danger of food shortage for a while.

By the way, near Dengfeng, Zhang organized and trained Yu Dazhong's "Mao Hulu", Wei Zhiyou's [-] elite soldiers, and Tang Jiuzhou's [-] to [-] elite soldiers to form a real combat effectiveness.

Originally, Zhang Shun's infantry were [-] under the command of Li Jiyu, "King of Troubled Times" and "King of Governing Times", and Xiao Qinhu had more than [-] newly trained infantry soldiers, totaling about [-].

The elite troops under Wei Zhiyou's command and Tang Jiuzhou's elite soldiers were all usable soldiers. Zhang Shun directly broke them up and reorganized them into [-] people. The strength has grown to [-] elite soldiers under each man's command.

The remaining one thousand "hair gourds" are proficient in martial arts but have not been trained. Zhang Shun entrusted Xiao Qinhu to lead them.

Anyway, this second brother Xiao already has relatively mature experience in military training, and there are more than [-] well-trained "child soldiers" under his command who can suppress them.

So by the way, Zhang compiled the "hair gourd" of more than [-] people, mainly miners, under Xiao Qinhu's command, and asked him to use it with training from time to time.

While Zhang Shun was making up his pawns, Chen Jindou and Li Jiyu, the local "head snakes", came to visit Zhang Shun again.

Then Li Jiyu was the first to remonstrate: "Songshan is one of the five mountains, and the terrain is dangerous. From here, you can see Zhengzhou and Kaifeng in the east, Yuzhou and Xuzhou in the south, and attack Luoyang with the rebels in the west. It is a military site. land."

"Now that Ren Chen and others are raising troubles in Yuzhou again, since the lord intends to rely on this man's strength, how can he just sit idly by and let him fend for himself? It's just that this place is too close to the capital city of Henan, and the shallow water can't hold a real dragon. If the garrison If there are too many, they may be broken by officers and soldiers.”

"In my opinion, you should leave a general here, take advantage of the situation on the mountain, set up camp, and seek far-reaching. If Ren Chen and others are powerful, you can see their ambitions; if Ren Chen and others are wiped out, you can surrender their remnants and think that Rebels help."

As soon as Zhang Shun heard it, he felt happy. This is Li Jiyu's self-recommendation, in order to stay here.

Since the generals left the Lu clan, they already knew that this Eastern Expedition was just to attract officers and soldiers to the east.Even in Song County, everyone knew that this was just a stopgap measure.

This Li Jiyu is also an ambitious person. He failed to rebel on his own before, so he had no choice but to vote for himself.Now that the rebel army has arrived in his hometown, it is inevitable that he will have some thoughts again.

Zhang Shun was noncommittal, and looked at Chen Jindou again.Then Chen Jindou said with a smile: "Brother Yuyu and I just met by chance, what we said is not the same thing."

"I've heard that since ancient times, there was no one who didn't pay attention to talents and scholars. My lord is now accepting the order of the heavens and pleading for the people. You must follow the example of your ancestors."

"Zhongzhou has been a place where culture and education have flourished since ancient times. There are many talented people and outstanding talents everywhere. Although the cultural movement is declining today, it is not as good as the land in the south of the Yangtze River, but there are still merits. According to this place, there is an academy named 'Songyang Academy'."

"It is one of the four major academies in the Song Dynasty. Twenty-four people, including Fan Zhongyan, Sima Guang, Cheng Hao, Cheng Yi, Yang Shi, Zhu Xi, Li Gang, and Fan Chunren, gave lectures here successively. The style of writing was very prosperous for a time."

"At the end of the Song Dynasty, it was destroyed by the flames of war. In the Jiajing period, Hou Tai, a county magistrate, rebuilt the Songyang Academy on its original site, opened the Ercheng Ancestral Hall, hired teachers and gathered disciples, and Canggu Wang Shangji named it for him, and the college was restored. In the end, due to the four hundred years of military disasters, it was revived and abolished, and it will no longer be as prosperous as it used to be."

"Fortunately, there are more than a hundred students here. Although they are not very talented, they can also be clerks with swords and pens. My lord, please take this opportunity to invite them. It is worthwhile to come to Dengfeng for nothing!"

Before Chen Jindou finished his words, Li Jiyu couldn't help glaring and said: "How shameless Chen Jindou is! Please behead Chen Jindou to thank the world."

"Cough, cough, cough!" Chen Jindou almost choked on the saliva when he heard the words. In the past, he was the one who told the truth and slandered the lord, "Behead so and so to thank the world", but he never thought that one day it would be his turn.
