Daming: I can’t kill such a greedy prince-in-law?

Everyone is not stupid at this time. It's okay to let them talk, but if they really take action, the lives of the entire clan will be at stake!

Regarding this situation, Ouyang Lun had already seen through the true colors of these people!

After all, the purpose of Li Shanchang and the officials of the Huaixi Party was to create difficulties and obstacles for Ouyang Lun. Only when Ouyang Lun was the logistics chief of the army to suppress the rebellion would they have the opportunity to find loopholes. If they took over Ouyang Lun's responsibilities, it would be equivalent to giving the right of supervision to Ouyang Lun.

Of course, if they completely suppress Ouyang Lun and then seize all power from Ouyang Lun, this would be another way of dealing with it.

However, Ouyang Lun was now in high spirits, but he took the initiative to give up the power in his hands. This made Li Shanchang, Lan Yu and others suspect that there was something fishy going on, so they naturally did not dare to agree easily.

Just when the court was at a stalemate again, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke up, "I have listened to you all and have made up my mind!"

"Although it is indeed dangerous for millions of people on the front lines, evacuating them at this time will only cause greater losses, so the rebellion will remain the same. Feng Sheng will still be the commander-in-chief, Xu Huizu will be the deputy commander, and Ouyang Lun will be the logistics manager!"

After saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ouyang Lun and said, "Ouyang Lun, Feng Sheng will naturally be in charge of the battle on the front line. We won't look for you, but the logistics of the army suppressing the rebellion and the safety of millions of people are all in your hands!"

"If the people suffer too much damage, we will not only hold you, Ouyang Lun, responsible, but we will also make you bear the blame!"

Forehead.
When Ouyang Lun heard what Zhu Yuanzhang said, he immediately rolled his eyes.

Take the blame? You already have enough blame to bear!

Thinking of this, Ouyang Lun looked at Lan Yu with regret. Lan Yu has changed a lot, but it is difficult to change one's nature. There is still a lot of difference!
If only this guy were a little braver and took over this terrible thing, wouldn't that be a relief for me!
"I agree with my father. Brother-in-law Ouyang has foreseen the problems of millions of people and has made corresponding arrangements. I may still have to debate who is the best at fighting in the Ming Dynasty, but as for who manages logistics the best, it is undoubtedly Brother-in-law Ouyang Lun. The logistics of the rebellion-suppressing army and the millions of people on the front line must be handed over to Brother-in-law Ouyang!"

"Ministers, please stop arguing."

When Zhu Biao saw Zhu Yuanzhang's statement, he stopped hesitating and directly decided the matter.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Civil and military officials all spoke up, including Li Shanchang, Lan Yu and other Huaixi Party officials.

For them, the main commander of the army to suppress the rebellion is Feng Sheng, Duke of Song, who is originally a member of their Huaixi Party. There is no need to compete with Ouyang Lun if they cannot suppress Ouyang Lun steadily. With Feng Sheng around, their Huaixi Party can also get major credit for suppressing the rebellion successfully. Moreover, they can keep a close eye on Ouyang Lun and continue to attack after finding his flaws. Even if Feng Sheng loses, they can find a reason to drag Ouyang Lun into the water!

In this way, no matter whether they win or lose in the end, the Huaixi Party will have an advantage over Ouyang Lun!
And as long as something goes wrong with Ouyang Lun, they can also make a fuss about these things.

Of course, what ultimately forced Huaixi Party officials such as Li Shanchang and Lan Yu to bow their heads was mainly the attitude of Zhu Yuanzhang and his son Zhu Biao.

Now we just have to wait for the result of suppressing the rebellion. Different results will represent different situations.

In Yunnan Province.

The camp of the anti-rebellion army stretched for hundreds of miles! !

Everywhere you look, there are people.

Now, the number of civilians who have joined the army to quell the rebellion is no less than two million!
Duke Feng Sheng of Song was also troubled. Even though he was a general who had suppressed rebellions and had served in military service throughout his life and had led millions of soldiers, the maximum number of soldiers he had led at a single time was only a little over 200,000. He had never commanded so many people before!
At first, Duke of Song Feng Sheng was very excited, thinking that he was now the general with the most troops in the Ming Dynasty, and he would have one more thing to brag about in the future.

But with more people, there were more things to do. Not to mention eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, it took him a lot of time just to organize these people into battalions. He also had to set rules for these people, otherwise there was no way to manage them.

Tens of thousands of people are still okay, but for millions of people, it would take a day or two just to patrol the military camp.

Fortunately, these people are not simply ignorant people. The militia and retired soldiers still give them basic discipline. We only need to send a general to make unified arrangements and they will settle down quickly. Otherwise, it will take at least ten days or half a month to complete the integration.

Of course, integrating millions of people is only the first step. Next, he has to lead them to quell the rebellion, which will be an even greater test for Duke Song Feng Sheng.

Just when Feng Sheng was having a headache, Xu Huizu arrived with the logistics team.

"So fast?!"

Feng Sheng was shocked to hear that Xu Huizu had arrived.

Even though the army had arrived in Yunnan for more than a month, the roads in Yunnan were rugged and it was easy to get lost. Feng Sheng had never thought that the court's supplies could be delivered so quickly!
"Quick, follow this general to greet him!"

Logically speaking, as the commander-in-chief, Feng Sheng did not need to personally go to greet the deputy general Xu Huizu. However, Xu Huizu was not only a deputy general, but also the son of Xu Da and the representative of Ouyang Lun. Now the logistics of the 150,000-strong rebellion-suppressing army and millions of civilians depended on Ouyang Lun.

Feng Sheng doesn't dare to offend easily now.

"This humble general Xu Huizu greets the great general!"

When Xu Huizu saw Feng Sheng coming to greet him personally, he hurriedly got off his horse and saluted Feng Sheng.

"Why call me General? Your father and I are comrades-in-arms. You can just call me Uncle Feng!"

Feng Sheng spoke to Xu Huizu very gently and sincerely.

You have to know that if there was no Ouyang Lun, Feng Sheng and Xu Da would have been in the same camp. Both of them were veterans who followed Zhu Yuanzhang to conquer the world. Needless to say, their deep comradeship is natural. As Xu Huizu was one of the most outstanding people of the second generation, Feng Sheng was naturally very friendly to Xu Huizu.

"Uncle Feng!"

Xu Huizu didn't refuse and just shouted.

"Eh!"

Feng Sheng nodded and looked at Xu Huizu again. "I held you in my arms when you were little. I didn't expect you to grow up so big in the blink of an eye. You must have suffered a lot over the years to be so strong!"

"But how come you guys came so quickly? Doesn't it take more than a month to prepare the supplies?"

Facing Feng Sheng's question, Xu Huizu smiled and said, "Uncle Feng, you misunderstood. We didn't just arrive. We have been here for a long time, probably half a month ago. We haven't heard from you, so we can only wait. After learning that you were here these two days, we rushed here immediately."

"Oh, by the way, we have also joined up with Uncle Mu and sent them some supplies. Now Uncle Mu's battle line has been completely stabilized. Now it's up to you, Uncle Feng, to completely wipe out the rebels!" Huh! ?

After hearing what Xu Huizu said, Feng Sheng was stunned. He never expected that Xu Huizu not only arrived much earlier than him, but also met up with Mu Ying. You know, he had just written a letter to Mu Ying!
"No! How come you are so fast, nephew? Did you fly here?"

Feng Sheng really couldn't understand. Although he had been wandering in the mountains for a month, Xu Huizu needed to wait for the supplies to be prepared and then transported from other provinces. Transporting supplies was different from marching an army, and the transportation of supplies would obviously be much slower!

"It's not flying here, but it's almost here. The reason why the supplies were delivered so quickly this time was mainly due to these two things."

As he spoke, Xu Huizu raised his hand and pointed to the equipment behind him.

When Feng Sheng saw the tricycles and two-wheelers made entirely of steel, he was once again confused. Although these things were equipped with wheels, they were not pulled by horses or cows, only by one person riding on them.

"How can this move?"

Feng Sheng asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Seeing Feng Sheng asking, Xu Huizu immediately gave a look to one of his men behind him, and the man immediately started the tricycle.

Kaka-

The tricycle started moving.

Ah!
Feng Sheng and his men retreated as if they had seen a ghost. Just when Feng Sheng was about to fall down from fright, Xu Huizu was quick to catch Feng Sheng, otherwise Feng Sheng would have fallen down.

"Uncle Feng, are you okay?"

Xu Huizu asked.

"I'm fine." Feng Sheng waved his hand and looked at the tricycle in front of him in surprise. "Nephew, what on earth is this?"

"Uncle Feng, this is the means of transportation my brother-in-law arranged for me. It is called a tricycle, or you can call it a three-wheeler!" Xu Huizu took the initiative to introduce it.

"Tricycle? Tricycle?"

Feng Sheng's eyes calmed down a little, but the curiosity in his eyes became stronger. "My dear nephew, why can this thing move without any power?"

"Uncle Feng, I didn't understand this at first. According to what my brother-in-law told me, the power of this tricycle is actually inside. As long as it is started, it can move. Although its speed may not be as fast as a good horse, the most important thing is that it is extremely stable!"

"And they can be mass-produced! Our logistics transport team has 10,000 such tricycles, which can transport enough supplies for millions of people at a time!"

"It is because of this three-wheeled vehicle that we can reach the front line so quickly!"

hiss!
Hearing Xu Huizu's words, Feng Sheng and his generals all gasped!
Transport supplies for millions of people at once!
"This is simply a magical weapon!" Feng Sheng walked forward cautiously, put his hand on the tricycle, and stroked it carefully, as if he was stroking a magical weapon.

"Nephew, how does this three-wheeled animal eat? It must consume a lot, right?" Feng Sheng asked curiously.

Facing Feng Sheng's question, Xu Huizu shook his head and said with a smile: "Uncle Feng, another advantage of this three-wheeled vehicle is that it does not require food or grass. It only needs to consume something called gasoline. A tank of gasoline can run hundreds of miles!"

"It can travel hundreds of miles with one tank of gas! Is this thing so magical?!" Feng Sheng was more and more shocked as he listened. However, as a veteran with rich combat experience, Feng Sheng immediately thought of the disadvantages of this matter. "It takes at least a thousand miles to come here from the capital. I must have added gasoline along the way?!"

"Yes, my brother-in-law has already arranged to build several gas stations along the way and store fuel in advance. We can continue running immediately after refueling. This is similar to the post station, but more convenient." Xu Huizu explained.

"Okay, that's great!"

When Feng Sheng heard this, he immediately clapped his hands in applause.

"Prince Consort Ouyang is truly a god-like man!" Feng Sheng asked himself if he had been through many battles, including wars with abundant logistics, but this was the first time he had encountered such a comfortable battle. No wonder the generals who had followed Lan Yu to fight against the Northern Yuan Dynasty last time all came back saying that the battle was so comfortable. He originally thought that it was a bit of an exaggeration, but after experiencing it himself this time, he suddenly felt how ridiculous his past thoughts were.

The support of millions of people, more food and supplies than can be stored, and brand new equipment.

In the past, when we went to war, we were always worried about not having enough of this or that. Now, we are worried about having too many of these things.

"Prince Consort Ouyang not only thought things through, but he also thought of things before me, the commander-in-chief. I really admire him!"

Even as a political enemy, Duke of Song Feng Sheng had to praise Ouyang Lun at this moment.

Hearing Feng Sheng's words, Xu Huizu also smiled and said, "Before leaving, my brother-in-law told me that Uncle Feng is one of the few Ming generals he admires. Now that everyone is fighting for the Ming Dynasty, some things can be put aside temporarily. My brother-in-law and I trust Uncle Feng, and we believe that Uncle Feng can lead everyone to quell the rebellion in Yunnan!"

"Did Prince Consort Ouyang really say that?"

Feng Sheng was stunned at first, then asked hurriedly.

"Of course, as a junior, Huizu dare not deceive Uncle Feng, nor dare to speak for my brother-in-law." Xu Huizu smiled and said, "If Uncle Feng doesn't believe it, after the rebellion is quelled, Uncle Feng can go and ask my brother-in-law in person!"

"No, no, although I don't have much contact with Prince Ouyang, I still know him quite well! Of course I can trust him!" Feng Sheng said with an awkward smile.

Not to mention that he was thousands of miles away from the capital and had no way to contact Ouyang Lun face to face, even if he returned to the capital, he would not dare to step into the gate of the clan house! If he really went to the clan house alone, the spit of the Huaixi Party would drown him, so at this time he had no other choice but to believe it!

In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Feng Sheng quickly changed the subject, "My dear nephew, as the deputy general of the army to suppress the rebellion, you must give me good advice!"

"You've come just in time. I'm thinking about how to quell the rebellion. Let's go in and talk!"

"Let's go!"

Feng Sheng immediately and enthusiastically took Xu Huizu's hand and led them into the tent. There was no trace of alienation between them. If you didn't know, you would have thought that these two were uncle and nephew!
You should know that when Xu Huizu first became the deputy general of the rebellion-suppressing army, he went to pay a visit to Feng Sheng once. (End of this chapter)
