To have food to eat and something to do.
In the future, they would be able to have their own land, and even be able to serve as officials for the imperial court, and everyone felt a fire rekindled in their hearts.
There is also new hope for the future.
Within two days.
Refugees from all over the country began to come towards Yongmen City one after another. Even in some places in Yongmen County, people came with their families.
Feng Qi immediately followed the original plan and arranged them at their respective assembly points to perform their duties.
In the past two days, the name of Pingnan Army in Yongmen City has been spread to everyone.
Their measures and actual disaster relief actions made all the people feel at ease from the bottom of their hearts.
Not to mention the land distribution and official recruitment promulgated by the Pingnan Army. These two measures directly moved everyone.
On this day, all the local squires and merchants in Yongmen County gathered in the county government office of Yongmen County.
The three-day deadline mentioned by Zhang Yuhang that day was just right.
...
Lintai County, Baoji County.
In the county government.
Several big men with straw hats on their heads slowly walked in under the cover of night.
The leader was Mu Sanshui who came from Yongmen County, followed by people from aristocratic families in Baoji County.
The journey was smooth, heading towards the backyard.
In the backyard, Zheng Sanpao was sitting on a chair, looking at these uninvited guests with cold eyes.
"What's the matter with you secretly asking to see me?"
"If I remember correctly, you are the guard general of Yongmen County. I heard that the imperial court recently sent a Pingnan army. Could it be that you are lobbying for them?"
Mu Sanshui took off his straw hat, patted the dust on his body, and said with a smile: "The general misunderstood. I came to the general today not for anything else, but to save the general's life!"
After saying that, Mu Sanshui motioned to the two people next to him to take off their straw hats and reveal their true faces.
"It's a joke to save my life. I have enough troops in Baoji County now. It would be a great favor if I don't go to them to cause trouble. Is there anyone who doesn't know how to trouble me?" "
Standing up, Zheng Sanpao looked at Mu Sanshui and the others with murderous intent in his eyes, as if he was debating whether to kill these people directly.
"General Shenwei is not afraid of foreign enemies, but don't forget that there are people from our aristocratic family in Baoji County. If the people from the aristocratic family and the Pingnan Army cooperate with each other internally and externally, with nearly a thousand elite soldiers under the general's command, I am afraid that it may not be possible. Those three thousand Yulin Army opponents, how will the general hold his own at that time?"
"These two people are from the Xu family and the Wu family. Supervisor Tianwei has contacted them. They were originally scheduled to join forces at South Gate in three days. By then, I'm afraid there will no longer be a foothold for you, general, in Baoji County. I don't know. Does this count as saving your life, General?"
While talking, Mu Sanshui opened the bamboo basket he carried with him. There was countless gold and silver in it.
For people like Zheng Sanpao, all they can do now is to lure him for profit. Only in this way can he be used by themselves and others in the end.
Zheng Sanpao looked at the attractive gold and silver, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: 'Why do you want to help me? '
"General, to be honest, it's not a big deal if you take over the entire Baoji County. It's just that the owner here has changed. Although he is hostile to our family, he will even show his butcher's knife, but he will not kill them all."
"But I don't know if you have paid attention to the various changes that have happened in Yongmen County in just a few days. They have stabilized the situation, stabilized people's hearts, opened warehouses for disaster relief, won people's hearts, and even launched a land equalization system to let everyone have land. "
"Businessmen, aristocratic families, country gentry, all their lands have been taken back under the name of Pingnan Army. He is not here to stabilize the Southern Territory. He, Zhang Yuhang, is here to dig up the roots of our aristocratic family."
Zheng Sanpao nodded slightly, "To think that such a thing could happen. Zhang Yuhang is so brave. He caught the lifeblood of your family right away. No wonder you are willing to come to us, a bandit, for help."
As soon as these words came out, Wu Zhen, the head of the Xu family behind him, and Wu Lai, the head of the Wu family on the side, looked at each other, with a trace of determination flashing in their eyes.
Wu Lai stood up and said, "General, Supervisor Tianwei has agreed with us to take action in three days. At that time, we will make a plan. Not only can we eat all the three thousand Yu Lin troops, but we can also allow the general to take advantage of this for a long time." Yongmen County.”
"At that time, you will be the emperor of the land who owns the two counties of Baoji and Yongmen. No matter whether you choose to stand alone and become king according to the situation in the future, or you follow the situation and submit to the imperial court, you can advance, attack, retreat or defend."
"Glory, wealth, high position and salary will all be within your reach when the time comes. Why wouldn't you, General?"
In fact, the Wu and Xu families were not prepared to betray the Supervisor Tianwei. In any case, the Supervisor Tianwei brought by Zhang Yuhang this time clearly represented the imperial court. Their family and the royal family shared the world, which was not an empty talk.
But with the arrival of Mu Sanshui, they knew that Zhang Yuhang's ambitions were much greater than these bandits. Even the murder of the two county guards in Yongmen County and the destruction of the Li family and the He family seemed to have nothing to do with it. Zhang Yuhang can't escape the relationship.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that such an unknown rebel army suddenly appeared before the Pingnan Army entered the city, and even later there was no basis for it.
In addition, Mu Sanshui brought a handwritten letter from Mu Kang, the governor of Lin'an County, which made them completely determined.
Backstab the Supervisor Tianwei.
Zheng Sanpao thought over and over again and asked: "Even if the plan is successful, there are still 5,000 new troops under the Pingnan Army. What to do then? I only have more than 1,000 people. Even if I deal with 5,000 new troops, I will not be able to do it." It’s a tough battle.”
"Also, why should I trust you? Couldn't this be a play directed and acted by you and Zhang Yuhang, just to win my trust? If I fall into your trap, wouldn't it be asking for death? road?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Sanshui's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself:
Although Zheng Sanpao is a bandit, he is still very considerate, but this time he really thinks too much.
He was originally prepared to live in the Pingnan Army and wait until death. After all, with his temperament, he would not be a fool anywhere.
But since the family sent people to contact him, he had no choice.
"General, the new army is a group of new soldiers who have never been on the battlefield. They have no combat effectiveness at all. We only need to wait until you defeat the Yulin Army and take advantage of the situation. The new army will naturally collapse without a fight!"
"What's more, I'm working as an internal response in Yongmen County, so you don't have to worry about this."
"As for the plot against you..."
Speaking of this, Mu Sanshui looked at the two family heads. After getting their approval, he continued: "The two family heads will stay in the county government from today until the day of the general's victory."
"And we promised afterwards that until the situation in the southern region clears up, the two counties of Baoji and Yongmen will never be included in the imperial court's list for suppression. With such sincerity, I wonder what the general's intention is?"
