Come to think of it, there is no reason to refuse at all.
First, being under the control of Zheng Xiong, military orders are not easily rejected.
Second, Zheng Xiong led the doctors to save his own life.
Besides, it's just a letter. What Zheng Xiong said was mysterious, but in fact, it didn't matter to his own people.
Fighting on the battlefield, life and death have long been indifferent, just do it if you don't accept it, now this is childish.
It's just that the benefits are not enough. After all, the danger is still great. Being a soldier, not to mention becoming a marquis or general, is to leave a future for the family and gain some benefits.
Even if you are the Marquis, you will take care of the Fu family, so there will be no worries.
But the amount given was too little, the capital needed to risk one's life was not enough, and it was a bit stingy.
"Mr. Marquis, we feel relieved to have you take care of us. However, there are many young and old in the family. It's embarrassing to have the Marquis take care of us all the time. If we can give them a foothold, it will also save the Marquis from having to worry about us. .”
The military order was in Zheng Xiong's hands, and it was hard for them to refuse, but because Zheng Xiong was easy to talk to, they still took the opportunity to raise the price of their lives.
Things that can be solved with money are all trivial matters. Anyway, that's what Zheng Xiong is thinking right now. If he wants the horse to run, it won't work without enough fodder.
Faced with the price increases from several people, Zheng Xiong said more cheerfully.
"Just ask for whatever you want. The conditions are not excessive and I will try my best to satisfy you."
After hearing Zheng Xiong's reply, several people felt reassured that good opportunities were rare, so they tentatively mentioned a few words.
“A few acres of fertile land is enough to feed the family’s young and old.”
What kind of requirement is this? In the current situation where the land is vast and the population is sparse, there is a fear that there will be no land for farming, and the protection of farmers will be so severe that they no longer want to farm. However, this spirit of being an old scalper is worthy of recognition.
"Okay, it's simple. Let's do this. Each of you will be given five guan of settlement allowance. What do you think?"
Seeing that his request was accepted, and Zheng Xiong even gave him the money directly, as long as he got five thousand dollars, this was a great deal.
Liangtian made a promise and got the money, and several people looked happy.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis. We dare not die in service."
Sure enough, money is not everything, and nothing can be done without money. With money and good farmland, a few people are more active.
Ordinary people are easily satisfied.
In this way, Zheng Xiong solved the matter democratically.
The soldiers got benefits, no worries, and everyone was happy.
On that day, several people chose fast horses and rode fast all the way to their destination.
The success of fishing and law enforcement depends on God's will. If someone comes to Yanmen to kill someone, he can be worthy of his title.
At this time, Zheng Xiong was a little more relaxed.
Life is like this. When you are free, you are really free, and when you are busy, you are so busy that you feel like you are sleeping.
Fortunately, Zheng Xiong's official position is not bad, and he doesn't have many mothers-in-law above him. He can just do his job well and no one will care about him.
Especially since I have achieved my current position, I have even fewer people to take care of myself.
No one disturbed him, so Zheng Xiong just read the letters he had received in his own area.
The level of military commanders is too low, and it is even worse than the level of curses used by civil servants. They are unworthy words.
After reading a few letters, I lost interest. After all, I am not a masochist and I like to watch them curse.
"Lao Li, have you found out where my eldest brother was robbed? Let's set off after a while after the wounded soldiers are healed. Don't find the place by then."
"Master Marquis, your elder brother didn't say it clearly. He left in a hurry and didn't ask for the specific location. I guess they have to go back and walk around again before they know the specific place."
It's a bit euphemistic, just run away, panic and don't choose the road is more appropriate.
"Take a step and see what happens!"
"How long do you think it will take for the wounded soldiers in this camp to recover?"
"If you want to set off, you can do it at any time. If you want to wait for them to fully recover, you have to wait a little longer. Half a month is almost enough."
Half a month, almost, is just the time it takes to send a few letters and go back and forth.
In this way, there is just enough time, no delays at all, and seamless connection.
"If the general can send envoys to clear up old questions, contribute good horses, and tolerate them, and follow the water and grass, he can still succeed in his own way."
Zhaozong was captured and the grassland war came to an end. The pressure of logistics and the plundering of Japanese pirates along the coast made Lao Zhu still focus on appeasing the situation in Liaodong.
The will of appeasement appeared in Naha's head pressing.
Gently rubbing Lao Zhu's imperial edict in his hand, a letter of admonition from Zhaozong was also delivered, and Naha was noncommittal.
The situation collapsed at this point. Zhaozong and his son were guests at Yingtian Mansion and bowed their heads.
The legal principles on the surface are not on his side, and the name of Zhaozong Beiyuan is gone.
If you don't surrender, you can only separate one side and become a local emperor, but it is destined not to last long.
The current conditions are good, but if he waits for Lao Zhu to free up his hands, his life or death will be uncertain, and the conditions will not be so favorable.
Nahachu was in a dilemma, and surrender seemed to be the best option now.
I and Lao Zhu are considered acquaintances. As a descendant of Mu Huali and a descendant of a famous family, I want to be here. At first, I was let go by Lao Zhu. There is a friendship here, but it is not that strong.
But after all, it doesn't look good on my own face. You just call yourself to surrender with empty words. You already have face. Where can I get my own face? My subordinates are watching.
There are thorns everywhere, and there are always a few strong-willed ones. They may not be able to do big things, but they can definitely cause some trouble for themselves.
There may be many such people, and you can only know what fear is if you convince them.
No, just after reading Lao Zhu's letter, several people came outside, waiting for Naha's summons.
"Lieutenant, what did the emperor say?"
"What else can you say? It's nothing to persuade us to surrender, but His Majesty has also sent a letter. You all should read it!"
Lao Zhu's decree was put aside, and he focused on the letter that accompanied Zhaozong.
After reading the letter, several people remained silent. The boss was spineless and told himself to surrender.
If you continue to resist stubbornly and your reputation is not justified, how can you fight?
"Lord Lieutenant, what do you think?"
No matter how you watch it, lie down and watch it.
There is no flag to guide me and others in the direction, and my faith is gone. How can I see it? I am also confused?
"I don't know, tell me what you think!"
"In my opinion, it is better to surrender. The emperor's promise is quite generous. If we continue to do so with a dishonest name, we will only die."
"Hmph, when did my warriors on the prairie become so cowardly? It's a shame for us to be with you."
"Zhaozong is the same. It's better to commit suicide to thank the world and embarrass their ancestors. In my opinion, Taiwei, you can just call yourself the king. In this one-third of an acre of land in Liaodong, you are not afraid of anyone. If Zhu Yuanzhang dares to invade , so that they can’t eat and walk around.”
As soon as this proposal came out, Nahachu was indeed moved for a moment, but he quickly suppressed his thoughts.
The hope of winning if we continue fighting is really slim.
Before Naha could say anything, another notification came from outside the door.
"Captain Taiwei, there is a man coming from outside the palace. He claims to be an envoy from Yanmen. He has come to deliver a message under the orders of the Champion Marquis."
