Chapter 44
44: The whole city cheers, what a wise and enlightened emperor! The assassin is coming!
“That’s right!” Zhu Gaoxun nodded and said,”If money cannot be circulated, it will be dead money. I will distribute money to the people through work, and then let them buy food…….”
At this point, Zhu Gaoxun looked at Zhu Youjian who was spitting in his face and said,”Is there any food left in the capital?”
“Yes, there are quite a few in the household warehouse.”
“Very good, the people’s hearts can be won in this way.”
At this point, Zhu Gaoxun actually didn’t need to explain in detail. The details can be understood with a little thought.
Work-for-relief is definitely an excellent method, and it has many hidden benefits!
“This is a good move. Gao Yu, you are really amazing. If it weren’t for you, it would be hard to save the Ming Dynasty during the Chongzhen period…….”Zhu Yuanzhang first praised Zhu Gaoxun, then glared at Zhu Di and said,”Unlike your father, who only knows how to rebel, I haven’t seen him do anything these two days.”
Old man, you didn’t do anything either!
Zhu Di complained in his heart, but the suppression from his bloodline made him dare not even think of talking back.
He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and laughed,”I know how to fight. When Li Zicheng comes, I will deal with him.”
“You bastard, what are you dreaming about?” Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily,”All matters in the capital are handled by Gao Xun, you have no part in it!”
“Emperor Grandpa……”Zhu Gaoxun replied,”It’s better for my father’s army to be commanded by himself. My army’s flags and flags are different from yours.”
This question actually involves the difference between ancient and modern combat methods.
From ancient times to the present, the army has been commanded by the general, which is almost the same.
But the ancient command is that the generals fighting on the front lines at all levels listen to the signal from the drums and then command the army to fight.
To give a simple example, when the gongs and drums are very urgent, it is a signal for a collective charge. Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, you must move forward.
This is why cold weapon warfare attaches great importance to morale and requires the command of generals.
Because once morale is lost, there will be a collective collapse.
But in modern warfare, without morale and command, the guns in the hands of the soldiers are not vegetarian. With extremely high tactical literacy, a small team alone can also burst out extremely terrifying power!
Zhu Gaoxun’s military combat instructions are a unique way of listening to signals made by combining modern instructions with ancient instructions. Naturally, they cannot be mixed with the armies of Zhu Di and Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang naturally understood the different flag signals and stopped worrying about it.
Zhu Di’s command was not bad. It was a good opportunity to see how much this guy’s military ability had grown….
“Has Tiande left the city?”
“My grandfather has left the city. I will go to deliver food and supplies tonight!”
“Please pay attention to safety”
“”My grandson understands. Don’t worry. I have magical powers. No one can hurt me.”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a smile after listening to Zhu Gaoxun’s words. This is true. His grandson is not comparable to ordinary people.
After discussing the matter, the car fell into silence. Only Zhu Di’s eyes became brighter. He made a decision in his heart…….
Let’s talk about two things separately.
When Zhu Gaoxun and others returned to the Forbidden City, under the leadership of Fan Guang, the people fell behind and came to another mansion, which was the residence of Li Jiantai, the cabinet minister and the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
In the correct timeline, this person should have stayed in Baoding after the defeat of Li Zicheng.
But at this time, he was taken back to Shuntian Prefecture in advance by Zhu Youjian, who was entrusted by Zhu Gaoxun.
This guy is also a two-faced guy who only knows his own interests.
In the first month of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng’s army approached Shanxi. This guy was afraid that his hometown would be in trouble, thinking that the family’s wealth could be used as a subsidy, so he asked Zhu Youjian for permission to kill the thief. When
Zhu Youjian heard that this guy still had this wish, he immediately agreed. He also personally saw him off, gave him the Shangfang sword, and let him”act at his own convenience”.
Before this guy arrived at his hometown, he heard that his hometown had fallen, his family’s wealth had been lost, and the expected food and salary had gone down the drain.
Passing through Guangzong, the county magistrate who was guarding the city refused to let him enter the city for three consecutive days. This guy was so angry that he ordered an attack on the county.
After breaking the city, this guy killed the gentry and whipped the county magistrate. As an important minister of the Ming Dynasty, this guy’s first battle against Li Zicheng was to attack the county of the Ming Dynasty, which was ridiculous.
After the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, this guy also surrendered to the Qing Dynasty.
How could Zhu Gaoxun forget such a person?
Therefore, the people at the scene watched another big drama. The prime minister who was high and mighty in the past was carried out by the soldiers like mud.
Behind him were mountains of money and food…….
Next, it was Sun Zhixie, who was”reinstated” by Zhu Youjian by Zhu Gaoxun.
This guy was not just a corrupt official, he was a complete traitor.
Most of the scholars and officials in the late Ming Dynasty would find an excuse for surrendering, but not this guy. He surrendered voluntarily and took the initiative to issue the”Hair-Shaving Order”.
That’s right, the reason why the infamous”Hair-Shaving Order” was implemented so urgently and quickly was all thanks to this guy.
Countless people died directly or indirectly at his hands!
Such a person, Zhu Gaoxun naturally would not let him go…….
The whole day, the capital was very lively. Large numbers of corrupt officials were taken away by soldiers under absolute evidence.
The people in the city cheered, and some even set off firecrackers to praise Zhu Gaoxun’s wisdom.
In a teahouse, on the second floor corner, two people were whispering.
“Brother, this emperor doesn’t look stupid! Do we still want to assassinate him?”
“Let’s see what happens first.” The man called the eldest brother looked at the people cheering in the streets, and was shocked. He sighed and said,”If there were fewer corrupt officials in the world, why would you and I start a rebellion?”
