Chapter 283 One Year

In the blink of an eye, it is the 61st year of Daliang calendar.

This is also the 11th year of Hongzhi, and many major events have happened in the previous year.

Among them, there are two things that attract the attention of people all over the world!

The first one was the situation in the grasslands of northern Xinjiang. Timur, a descendant of this generation of Tianjiao Maodun, first commanded the grassland alliance to attack Daliang and directly took away Jiayuguan.

It was only later that General Zhou Wu blocked Temur's invasion of Daliang outside Beiliang City, and he thought this was the end.

But the news after that has attracted the attention of everyone in the world - that is, the grassland has been unified!
Not an alliance, but a unity!

This is the second unification in the history of the grassland. The previous time was Moton, and this time it was Timur, a descendant of Moton!

Later generations will always remember that in the 61st year of Daliang, the great Han of the Temur tribe unified the grassland, known as Mude Yihan, and the grassland language means the eternal big man of the grassland!
Facing the unified grassland of Northern Xinjiang, Daliang also had to attach great importance to it. He directly left General Zhou Wu in Beiliang City in Northern Xinjiang, and then conscripted [-] new troops to Beiliang City.

At this time, the 30 Chen soldiers in Beiliang City, together with dozens of surrounding cities, formed a line of defense, forming a solid wall of iron and steel, carefully guarding the grassland, and always preparing to face the invasion of the grassland.

The second thing was the previous flood in the south.

A huge flood disaster directly displaced millions of people. Even though Daliang had a deep foundation and continued to send officials to the south for disaster relief, it was only a drop in the bucket.

Under such circumstances, there was a remnant of the previous dynasty—the rebellion of Shang Fu, who claimed to be the grandson of the Great Zhou Dynasty Emperor.

Although Zhang Yuan raised the butcher knife against the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty and cut off many bloodlines of the Great Zhou royal family, there were still survivors, such as Shang Fu's father, Shang Liang, the eleventh son of the Great Zhou emperor.

At that time, Shang Liang was still in his infancy. In order to avoid the bloody case in the palace, he was taken out of the Dazhou Palace by some elders and children. After that, he kept his name incognito and secretly accumulated strength.

But seeing Daliang becoming more and more powerful, it was obvious that there was no hope of restoring the country, so he pinned his hopes on his son.

Shang Fu - this word Fu is the meaning of restoring the country!
Shang Fu has inherited his father's wishes since he was a child, constantly recruiting customers and forming forces, he has become a powerful gentry in the local area.

With the support of some elders and children in the past, Shang Fu has accumulated a lot of power over the years. He originally wanted to sit and watch the situation in the world. Pass it on to younger generations!
This can be described as endless descendants!

But a flood immediately gave Shang Fu an opportunity!
Millions of refugees, these are all objects he can use!

Shang Fu decisively took years of accumulated strength, directly captured a county, and then recruited refugees to serve as soldiers.

Shangfu's provision of food and clothing is undoubtedly a chance for these refugees to survive. Since they can survive, what is rebellion?

If you don't rebel, your family will starve to death!
On the one hand, he was full to live, and on the other hand, he was starved to death!

At this time, can we still expect these refugees to have any patriotism?

People who have never experienced hunger will never know that they are very hungry, even if it is not uncommon for Yizi to eat each other.

Compared with such a human tragedy, the price of rebellion is undoubtedly much lighter.

Rebellion is nothing but death after all, which is the worst possible outcome.

But it is also possible to gain a fortune without dying!
Choose the lightest of the two.

So these refugees went to respond one after another.

Relying on these refugees, Shang Fu conquered several counties again. Using these counties as the foundation, he began to make his name as Shang Tianzi, which meant that he officially started recruiting troops!
In just a few months, there were tens of thousands of troops, and the tens of thousands of troops engulfed hundreds of thousands of refugees, directly disrupting the surrounding counties.

Relying on the foundations of several places, coupled with the smooth news at the beginning of facing the imperial army, Shangfu also gained the support of many self-proclaimed people with lofty ideals.

Some aristocratic families in the south are also willing to send a branch of disciples to join them. This branch has been drawn out of the clan, and the court has nothing to say.

The aristocratic family never puts all eggs in one basket. Since Shangfu has shown a certain potential, it is naturally worth their investment.

There are many capable people under his command, and some clans have added fame to him. For a while, the name of Emperor Shang spread among the refugees in the south.

King Pan created the world, and the flood destroyed the world.

The water floods the sky and the south, at the beginning of the extinction of the world.

The emperor of merchants, the savior of the world!
Three lines of folk songs have also been circulated in the world. This song has added some fantasy color, but it is just right with the verification of the flood in the south!
For a while, countless fools and fools in the south were superstitious about the Emperor Shang. Even if they were not refugees, they put up an altar for the Emperor Shang in their homes, hoping to be blessed and prevent the flood from continuing to wreak havoc.

Moreover, although the imperial court reacted, it was affected by the terrain and floods, so it was not easy to send a large army to wipe them out.

Water and fire are ruthless, even a large army can't stop the flood. If the large army is unlucky, or the enemy is cunning, and the seven armies are flooded, wouldn't it be a big loss?
Moreover, under the flood, it is not easy to march, and it is difficult to go to suppress it in time.

The floods in the south are still not dealt with, and the situation in northern Xinjiang is tense again.

Faced with such a situation, the imperial court could only dispatch tens of thousands of troops under the leadership of a veteran to suppress it.

……

The veteran marched hard to avoid the flood and arrived at the battlefield that should be suppressed, but seeing the situation on the opposite side, forcibly suppressing would only kill him in vain.

After all, he is a veteran, he is also skilled in the art of war, and he is even more stable, since he knows that he cannot be suppressed.

Just try to stop the speed of the other party's chaos and prevent the other party from doing shit.

When the flood is dealt with, and the imperial court really frees up its hands and feet, it will be able to completely resolve the disturbance.

The veteran also ordered decisively, and dispatched soldiers to the surrounding counties.

In the city, with the cooperation of the people in the city, with the help of the power of the surrounding city, it is enough to stop these refugees.

Don't ask for results, just ask for the city to be held firmly!

This is a sound policy, but it hinders the speed of Shangfu's expansion in the short term.

But after discovering that his own strength is expanding slowly, Shang Fu is not a fool. After knowing the opponent's thoughts, he directly shifts the direction of expanding his strength.

Is it not worth it to bump into a bag knowing that there is a wall in front of you!

Changed the direction directly, and continued to expand wildly!
At the same time, Shang Fu is not a simple role, and before leaving, he also tricked the veteran!
Send people to various places to publicize this veteran's fear of war!

Even saying that the veteran wanted to surrender, he kept flirting with Shang Fu.

It is proof that the veteran did not attack Shang Fu's army!

He had a good idea, he wanted to see the scene of suspicion among the rulers and ministers of the Great Liang, if the Emperor Hongzhi of the Great Liang really recruited the old general back, he would change generals temporarily.

It's just that this time, the time wasted, was worth it in Shang Fu's view.

Moreover, if the new general sent later dares to take the initiative to fight, it will be self-destruction, and naturally let him do so.

If he can swallow the army of the imperial court, his reputation in the south will not only be even bigger.

It is even more able to use the power of this stock to completely expand in the south!
The name Shang Tianzi is a little more real!

……

However, in the capital city of Daliang at this time, after hearing the news, Emperor Hongzhi of Daliang just smiled slightly: "A traitor who is still a lonely king is a stupid king? Forced to give way to Zhang Yuan, and even drank poisonous wine!"

"This Shangfu boy underestimates the lonely king too much! Hahaha!"

Emperor Hongzhi was not said to be wise and powerful, but he was also a qualified and successful monarch. The stable development of Daliang in these years is absolutely indispensable to his credit.

The reason he sent the veteran was because he liked the stability of the veteran.

He understood that it was completely unrealistic for tens of thousands of troops to go to the flood to suppress an army with hundreds of thousands of refugees.

Even the refugees, without strict training, are not as effective as the real army, but they can kill an elephant if there are too many ants.

What's more, the comparison between hundreds of thousands of refugees and tens of thousands of troops?
So for this army, Emperor Hongzhi always wanted to delay the speed of Shangfu's expansion of strength as much as possible. Of course, he would not object if he could really defeat the strong with the weak!

The veteran failed to defeat the strong with the weak, but he delayed Shangfu's expansion and prevented Shangfu from becoming bigger.

In this regard, the veteran did a good job!

Although the outside world said that the veteran was afraid of war, Emperor Hongzhi could see clearly that the pace of Shangfu's expansion had not only slowed down in the past few months, but also directly changed the direction of expansion.

It can be said that the veteran directly forced Shang Fu to turn around!
Of course, after turning around, although Shangfu's expansion speed will increase again.

But if tens of thousands of troops can protect one side, can they ask for more?
What's more, the tens of thousands of troops went to the south, which can be said to be a lone army. As long as the flood is not resolved, it will always be a lone army going deep!
This is a lone army, how can we change generals before the battle?

No matter how fatuous he Hongzhi Emperor Liang Ye is, he still knows the taboo of military strategists!

Also facing the messages from the outside world, Emperor Hongzhi just smiled and didn't speak!
Not only will he not be affected by outside messages, but he wants to cast a shadow over the descendants of this veteran. Even the wife of the veteran was promoted to the second rank of Mrs. Haoming because of her virtuous guarding of the family.

As for Lao Jiang's hand, there is an extra Shangfang sword at this time!
It shows Emperor Hongzhi's trust in this veteran. As for the achievements of this veteran, it can only be rewarded after returning to Beijing!
After the veteran got the Shangfang sword, he could only say that he was moved to tears, and deeply felt the greatness of the emperor's grace!

Continue to guard one side in the south!
……

The 61st year of the Daliang calendar is a year of turmoil, and this is the beginning of everything.

Future influential figures have begun to appear on the stage one after another!
At this time, Ren Taixu was still lurking in Anlu County, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

Of course, if he hadn't met someone from Cangsheng Sect, this might have nothing to do with him in the first place!

During this year, he only did two things, one was to prepare for the examination, and the second was to buy hundreds of acres of land next to the attic in the countryside.

Of course he doesn't have so much money, but his father is the third person in Anlu's officialdom, so he will not lose money if he has power.

The right to use it, expired void, this sentence has never been empty words!
Of course, he also got the support of his father and grandfather.

Because their family has only risen for three generations so far, and their background is too far behind.

The talents of these three generations are the ones who have the current great situation. At present, their expectations are pinned on Ren Taixu, and they hope that Ren Taixu can lead them to become a real aristocratic family.

But no matter whether Ren Taixu can do it or not, it doesn't affect them to buy a family business, there is no conflict between the two.

So if Ren Taixu can't bring them into a real family, only after they have their own family business in the local area, can their family become a local wealthy family, a real scholarly family!
The land will not depreciate, even if the younger generation is unfilial, they can still have a foundation for survival.

Of course, if Ren Taixu could become a member of the dynasty, staying in Anlu would not be able to meet the political needs of the younger generations, and they might move to the capital.

But even if they moved to the capital, they still needed a decent piece of ancestral land!

Therefore, a piece of land is very important!

A piece of land in a small remote county seated the expectations of two generations of Grandpa Ren Taixu and his father!
As the third generation, Ren Taixu has a heavy responsibility at this time!

Ren Taixu knew that he had placed the expectations of his fathers on him, if he hadn't come into contact with the Cangsheng Sect in the past, his ambition was not here, and he might live up to this expectation.

But maybe it's a blessing in disguise, knowing that it's not a blessing. Although the result of coming into contact with Cangsheng Sect is not too satisfying for Ren Taixu, at least his future path will not conflict with the expectations of his parents!
He will even truly lead the Ren clan to become the most noble clan in the world!
With the land, there is no need for Ren Taixu to urge, but the old grandpa Ren began to recruit tenant farmers, and these tenant farmers helped Ren Taixu's family cultivate the land.

After several generations, the Ren family has really become a landlord class, and some of the descendants of these tenant farmers have also become the sons of the Ren family, and they are the most trustworthy servants!
Ren Taixu wanted to buy this land, of course not because he wanted to grow it secretly, but it was actually a stable way to develop slowly by farming.

It fits Ren Taixu's temperament very well!

It's just that there is not much time left for Ren Taixu, and it is not enough to develop slowly.

Now one south and one north are already two powerful figures. In ten years, if Ren Taixu can't proceed quickly, he can only become a loser under others' hands!
He has two purposes, one is to reassure his parents, and the second is to attract a few loyal disciples and followers while buying this family business!
He always has a few cronies under his command, can he still trust all the people of Cangsheng Sect?
