Chapter 204(2/2)

Wang Ping came over uneasily...

"Ambassador, there were rumors last night that the imperial court wanted to massacre the Jin Dynasty in five directions. Now the people are a little uneasy."

He said carefully.

Of course, it is more accurate to say that the elders are very uneasy.

These old guys are very afraid of death. Although they have Ambassador Yang's support, they still need Ambassador Yang to give them reassurance.

"Don't worry, don't say that I haven't heard this statement at all. Even if it is true, I will keep you safe and sound. Besides, your emperor is already in his twilight years. How can he have the energy to do this? His bald head will only bother his children and grandchildren. He is very busy, not to mention that the south is still conquering Annan!

Five ways to slaughter Jin?

Where can he find the army that slaughtered Jin from five directions?"

Yang Feng said.

The attack on Annan has begun.

However, the distance here is too far. The only news he can get right now is that King Chu's army has crossed Zhennanguan and the defenders of Annan have surrendered. After all, the Ming army's banner is to accuse Hu Jiya, not to destroy Annan. At this time, because The Ming army conquered the Japanese country, which can be said to have made those small countries tremble. Basically, seeing the Ming army move south, most of the Annan local tycoons were ready to welcome the king's army. However, they were not prepared to encounter real resistance in the north. , the main battlefield envisioned is still the water transportation node in Zhiling.

As for the outcome of the battle, there will be no surprises.

The war with Annan was never a matter of fighting.

As long as supplies can be delivered, as long as the plague in the rainy season is avoided, beating them is just a trivial matter. The key is to control after the attack. This is the key. Fortunately, with the Japanese model, the powerful people in Annan should not mind selling Hu Jiya.

"Young ones can just say it. There is an ambassador who can make decisions for the young ones. There is nothing to be afraid of."

Wang Ping quickly flattered him.

By this time, rumors had spread extremely quickly.

The elders were also very uneasy.

Now that we have Ambassador Yang, everyone can rest assured.

As for the rumors…

There's nothing strange about that.

More than 300,000 people crowded around Taiyuan. What kind of rumors weren’t there? They were all doing nothing, so it’s strange that there weren’t any rumors in this situation. As for the Five-Road Massacre of Jin, if you think about it, you know they are all nonsense. Still. It would be even more outrageous to say that the River God wants to equalize the land and avoid food. The River God and Ambassador Yang are both here. When have you ever heard them have similar intentions?

Besides, these elders actually know some inside information. Although it may not be complete, they are not ignorant.

The river god and so on are actually the infighting among the top brass of the Ming Dynasty.

Or the battle for the crown prince.

Emperor Taisun and Ambassador Yang took advantage of them. They took advantage of this opportunity and everyone took advantage of each other.

But if Ambassador Yang rebels, just laugh about it.

It is also a joke that Ambassador Yang is a descendant of Song Huizong. Ambassador Yang has long scoffed at this statement, and even when he mentioned Song Huizong, he was obviously still full of contempt.

"Do you have all the candidates?"

Yang Feng asked.

"It will take a day or two to get back to the ambassador. You also know that there are too many people, and each clan is dissatisfied with each other. It is difficult to choose at once. Some of them had fights yesterday because of the election. But ambassador, please Don’t worry, it will be completed the day after tomorrow. Elders, I would also like to ask the ambassador, which side does the ambassador think the people will choose in the end?"

Wang Ping asked.

In fact, they were worried that people would choose Song Dynasty.

That would be embarrassing.

After all, the elders have never thought of rebelling, but if the people choose the Song Dynasty and Wei Guogong refuses to keep his promise, they will be caught in the middle. It can be said that neither end is human. Of course Wei Guogong knows that they are the organization

Otherwise, the Duke of Wei believed that they were deliberately rebellious. For the young men of their hometown clan, they were the leaders. At this time, they needed to take the lead in forcing Duke Wei to abide by their promise.

It's a pity that they suddenly became the leaders of the rebellion.

So they are really worried!

“Did the Ming Dynasty impose excessive taxes and levies?”

Yang Feng asked.

"That's not to say that your Majesty loves the people like his own children, and he will collect as much tax as he needs to. He will not dare to collect more than a bushel in the local area. Anyone who dares to levy excessive taxes should be skinned by your Majesty."

Wang Ping said quickly.

"Is the Song Dynasty better than the Ming Dynasty?"

Yang Feng asked.

"Well, I don't know what the Song Dynasty was like. It was almost three hundred years ago. Not to mention the little ones, even my ancestors don't remember it. But it seems that Emperor Huiqin of the Song Dynasty couldn't even protect his wife and daughter. He was

People were taken away like pigs and dogs. Compared with the current emperor, he was really not worthy of carrying shoes. If I were to choose, of course I would choose the Ming Dynasty.

Even though the Ming Dynasty had some shortcomings, such as too many rules, uneasy merchants, and the title of vassal king, at least it had the backbone, could fight, and could protect the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Although the vassal kings would inevitably bully the people, compared with Mongolia and Semu,

, that kind of oppression is not worth mentioning at all.

What kind of oppression does the vassal king have? The ambassador has never seen the younger ones pass by.

The vassal king at least did not dare to kill the common people. The Jin king was tyrannical and did kill people, but the ones he killed were his military guards. He had no right to control the citizenship of Taiyuan Prefecture.

But in the past during the Hu Yuan Dynasty, the lives of our people were worth a donkey.

The young ones really support Ming Dynasty.

In the Hu Yuan era, the young people lived like dogs, but in the Ming Dynasty, they were at least human beings."

Wang Ping said.

"Then why are you following me to make trouble?"

Yang Feng said.

He didn't expect that this guy had a very high opinion of Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Well, Ambassador, people always want to have more points. It is true that the vassal kings are not as cruel as the Mongols who oppressed the people in the past, but wouldn't it be better if we didn't? Although we support the Ming Emperor, we don't also want him to have fewer rules.

Do you want to order?

When there was no chance in the past, the young ones didn’t dare. At most, they thought to themselves, but now that there is a chance, why not give it a try? There are ambassadors on the left and right to support the young ones, and His Majesty the Emperor does not dare to do anything to us.

, if this happens, won’t the little ones live a better life?”

Wang Ping said.

"People are miserable and not satisfied, so now that they have reached Long, they will return to Shu!"

Yang Feng sighed with emotion.

Wang Ping just kept smiling.

So the gentry in the late Ming Dynasty tried this step by step.

They are always dissatisfied when it comes to interests.

Always look forward to Shu.

They were not disloyal to the Ming Dynasty. In fact, even the Shanxi merchants at the end of the Ming Dynasty knew that a Han emperor was better than a foreign conqueror after all. They would not have seen slaves killing people who had no food. They knew very well that they were different from those who had no food.

Human beings are compatriots. Jian slaves could kill people without food just like dogs because of lack of food. Then when necessary, they would kill them like dogs. However, the Ming Emperor treated them as human beings after all. But in the face of interests, they always did not know

Satisfied, they will ignore everything else when it comes to interests, and will do anything as long as they can benefit themselves.

Even if you betray the Ming Emperor.

Just like now, they know that Zhu Yuanzhang is a good emperor, but in the face of interests, they will still follow Yang Feng to cause trouble.
