First Minister of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 24: Resting place

   Fei Ju is a fellow of Zhu Chongba. He is skilled, and he went out of the city himself, mixed into the Yuan army camp, and investigated the military situation.

   Zhang Ximeng values ​​his opinion very much, and did not make his own claim, but asked: "What should I do with the spoils, do you have any ideas?"

   Fei Ju was asked to stop. He admired Zhu Chongba, and then he took refuge in Zhu Chongba. He was not from Guo Zixing, but from Zhu Chongba.

   It's just that Zhu Chongba is still under Guo Zixing, his name is not right, and his words are not right.

   Even if Guo Zixing gave Zhu Zhong eight points and could command a thousand households, it was easy to handle, and all the confiscated materials would be placed in the barracks.

   But now he is still the captain of the nine, and has seized so much property, and put it in his yard?

   After thinking about it, Fei Jue courageously said: "Little sir, this time you have done a great job, so the commander must have some reward, right?"

   Zhang Ximeng smiled slightly, "What if not?"

"This... the handsome man is too unfair!" Fei Ju said with a black face, "Master Zhu was born to death, and the big guys are all dead! With his head on his head to kill the enemy, how can I ask the whole Haozhou, who is better than us? Great credit? The commander dare not promote Young Master Zhu, for fear that he won't be able to convince the crowd!"

   Zhang Ximeng smiled undiminished, and asked: "If the commander just wants to go his own way, what should I do?"

   Fei Ju was asked again, what should I do?

   Overthrow the commander and become the master by himself... If the strength is not enough, he will pull the team and develop alone, and he will have the final say.

   In this chaotic world, nothing is strange.

   Just don’t know what Zhu Gongzi’s attitude is?

   He doesn't dare to talk too much now, Fei Ju is thinking about it, and can only say: "Little sir, you are Zhu's confidant. What are the arrangements? Just talk about it, I will listen to you."

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said: "We are all of En Gong’s people, so naturally we listen to En Gong’s actions... 20 miles west of Haozhou City, there is a town called Linhuai. You will lead fifty people there first. If there is no accident, Take Linhuai immediately, and if you encounter a strong enemy, come back and deliver the letter as soon as possible."

   Fei Ju thought for a while, couldn't help but brighten his eyes!

   Zhu Gongzi is going to develop alone!

   This move is good, great!

  The reason why Fei Ju chose to seek refuge in Zhu Chongba was because he felt that Guo Zixing's hope was not like a man, and it would be difficult to get things done. First of all, in terms of employment, Guo Zixing prefers his son and brother-in-law, and he is so easy to have a capable son-in-law, but he is also reluctant to promote him.

   I can’t get along with the other guys who are the same commanders.

   Before the Yuanbing siege, Guo Zixing often worked at home and didn't like to go to the barracks... As a result, Sun Deya and others were always in the barracks, mingling with the soldiers.

   When something happened, Sun Deya got together and came up with a solution, but didn't pay much attention to Guo Zixing. He was sometimes called to the handsome mansion by Guo Zixing and often argued.

   For example, Zhu Chongba and Ma proposed to build trenches and strengthen city defense, and Sun Deya strongly opposed...Speaking of it, it’s not that Sun Deya didn’t understand the importance of city defense, but he was used to arguing with Guo Zixing and couldn’t change it for a while.

   Fei Ju observed for a while, the city was messy, he wanted to go to Liu Futong.

   As a result, Yuan soldiers besieged the city, but he failed to walk, and found that Zhu Chongba had a law in defending the city, showing compassion to his subordinates, and also having rules in speech and work. Take Li Xincai’s decision to join the army. Zhu Chongba didn’t rashly accept him, but asked him to settle at home and take care of his old mother. This alone is much stronger than the head of the army who blindly grabs strong men and expands soldiers and horses. Times.

   Now he is following Zhu Chong's Eighth Great Breakthrough Army, killing heartily and happily.

   Fei Ju recognized Zhu Chongba from his heart, but the identity of Lao Zhu was really embarrassing, and their subordinates were uncomfortable following.

   It happens that Lao Zhu will develop alone at this time, which is really great.

   "Don't worry, Mr. Lin, Linhuai is a good place, I'll take it down now!"

   Feiju led fifty people, rode on the captured horses, and went down as soon as he slid.

   After sending off Fei Ju, Zhang Ximeng followed Ma to the place where the trophies were stored. This was a small village in the Yuan army. It was originally a pile of weapons and armor. At this time, it was Tang He's men who were guarding it. Since Zhang Ximeng often discussed military affairs with Zhu Chongba Tanghe during the defense of the city, the big guys also knew him and were very polite to him.

   "Little sir, take a look! This thing is much older!"

   Zhang Ximeng smiled and nodded. As far as he could see, there were all good things, swords, armors, weapons, everything, and there were even more than a dozen returned guns.

   Zhang Ximeng simply checked, and couldn’t help but nod. As expected, it was something that was made by the Ministry of Industry.

   In addition to weapons, Zhang Ximeng found a lot of grains, package by package, piled up like a hill, and it seemed to be at least tens of thousands of stones.

  Beside the grain, there are no less than three hundred horse-drawn carriages and carts of livestock, all available.

   Zhang Ximeng went around and found a pile of books and manuscripts in the corner.

The soldier next to him said with a smile: "Little sir, this was ordered by our thousands of households. He said, it was confessed by Zhu Gongzi. The little sir likes to read books. In the barracks, all those who carry words are snatched and left for Little sir...actually, Mr. Zhu was wrong. No one likes these things except us. Some Wang Ba Gaozi used them to light the fire, and I scolded a few words and brought them back."

   "Little sir, do you think this thing is useful?"

   The soldier leaned over and asked, only to find that Zhang Ximeng was holding a volume of manuscripts in his hand, and staring blankly, he was lost.

   The big guy doesn’t understand, what is it that is worth paying attention to?

   They didn't understand, and they didn't dare to ask, so they could only quietly step aside and do other things.

   Why does Zhang Ximeng pay so much attention?

   It turns out that this is a manuscript of Jia Lu... It records Jia Lu's experience in investigating the Yellow River and managing floods.

  Every river, every section of the river bank, has detailed data, which section of the river is seriously blocked, which section of the river needs to be excavated... How many people are used, how much money and food, everything is available. Even in some key places, pictures were drawn, meticulously detailed.

   In response to the serious flooding of the Yellow River, Jia Lu proposed a method of repairing the river, “One is to build a north embankment to prevent a horizontal collapse;

   After receiving the support of the Yuan court, Jia Lu personally deployed and commanded, mobilized 150,000 civilian husbands, and governed the Yellow River.

  The Yellow Governance site stretches for more than three hundred miles. Jia Lu upholds the principle of "should be dredged, dredged if plugged, stop if needed, be prevented if needed, and let out if needed".

   Especially when intercepting the breach of the Huanglinggang Dike in Cao County, Shandong Province, due to the large amount of water in the breach, and in the autumn flood, the estuary swept the bank northward, and the maneuver was rapid and difficult to intercept.

Jialu mobilized 27 large ships, loaded rocks in their cabins, and then sank one by one. The stone ship levee was built layer by layer to block the monstrous flood and finally completed the interception... When he saw this, Zhang Ximeng was dumbfounded, and the stone ship blocked the flow. This method will be used in later generations, but replaced with trucks filled with sand, gravel and soil, and thrown into the torrent one by one.

   "This old man is really a genius!"

   Zhang Ximeng closed the manuscript and couldn't help but sigh. Since the late Northern Song Dynasty, the Yellow River has continuously flooded and changed its course... Needless to say the famous Sanyi Huihe.

   Jin Bing went south, Du Chong decided on the Yellow River embankment, drowning more than 200,000 people, but did not stop the Jin Bing, speaking of the operation, almost catching up with the God of War in Huayuankou.

   Since then, the Yellow River has gone from the scourge of the Jin Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty, which lasted for more than two hundred years without any results.

   Frankly speaking, Jialu's water control was effective. In the following hundreds of years, the Yellow River has generally flowed into the sea according to the watercourse after Jialu's control.

   But it is well known ~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ Many major projects are disadvantages in the contemporary era, and will benefit the future, such as the Great Wall of Emperor Qin Shihuang, straight roads, such as the Grand Canal of Emperor Sui Yang, including this time the river control!

   Zhang Ximeng was stunned. At the moment, the common people cursed the opening of the river and changed money, thinking that this was a sign of the collapse of the Yuan Dynasty, but in all fairness, the Ming Dynasty also needed to treat the river in the future.

   These precious materials must not be destroyed casually. Zhang Ximeng immediately collected the manuscripts and ordered the soldiers to collect them as best as they could, and don't destroy them in the chaos.

After he gave orders here, Zhu Chongba and Tang He returned. Zhang Ximeng looked at their team and couldn't help being taken aback. He clearly remembered that when Lao Zhu was out of the city, there were only two hundred war horses. How could he look at people like that? People ride horses, some people have two horses, three horses!

   This is a fortune!

  Who knows that Zhu Chongba is still not satisfied, and Tang He cursed even more, "Let the old man Jialu run away, if it falls into my hands, he must be crushed!"

   Zhu Chongba took a deep breath, and temporarily set aside the affairs of Jia Lu, "Little sir, how about the commander?"

   This time Zhang Ximeng did not speak, but instead asked Ma to come over and talk to Lao Zhu!

  Ma Shi arrived in front of Zhu Chongba and told about Zhang Tianyou's arrest of her. Zhu Chongba was speechless for a while.

   Originally, Zhu Chongba only wanted to keep some of his own trophies, so as not to be completely controlled by others. To put it bluntly, it was just a small vault.

   Knowing that the Guo family and his sons are going to use his wife to hold him hostage, Zhu Chongba no longer hesitates. Independent development is imperative!

   At this moment, Fei Ju came here with a flying horse, his expression was weird, as if there was a big happy event.

   He got off the horse, hurriedly reached Zhu Chongba’s ear, and said in a low voice: "The old man ran to Linhuai, and the villain caught him!"
