Please ask me to be the emperor

Chapter 50: A soldier never tires of deceit

In fact, the two of them seemed to be in love with each other, but Zhang Shun knew that this was just a show of force. The wise man is in charge of the relationship, and loyalty and treachery are in one heart. If Taoist Ma sees that "Purple Gold Liang" has a broad mind and lofty ambitions, he may not be able to sincerely help him; if Taoist Ma sees that "Purple Gold Liang" is a coward and leads to a dead end, Taoist Ma must be a loyal minister.

The two of them were just performing for each other. If he succeeds in replacing "Purple Gold Liang" in the future, this will be a good story about the relationship between the king and his ministers; if "Purple Gold Liang" destroys him in the future with the help of Taoist Ma, it will be a "subject is his minister, the king is not his king" , a typical example of good birds choosing trees to roost in.

It's not that Zhang Shun didn't want to force Taoist Master Ma to stay, but the relationship between monarch and minister is like the relationship between a man and a woman. It's hard to keep him if his heart changes, and it's hard to let him go if his heart is there. So Zhang Shun simply complied with his wishes, whether he was truly loyal or falsely loyal, it was easy to get together and separate, and everyone wanted to get what he wanted.

The next day, Zhang Shun pretended to be filled with grief and wrote a letter to "Purple Gold Liang" asking for help. After "Purple Gold Liang" received the letter, they took a short rest and mobilized the entire army to surround Gaoping County.

In this regard, Zhang Shundu had to lament the "Purple Golden Liang"'s broad-mindedness and methods, and even had some doubts about Taoist Master Ma's judgment. I was originally a new person who took refuge in me. If I made a slight suggestion, I would give my full support. I am the person who will make things happen.

So Zhang Shun re-appointed Chen Jingzhi as the general manager of baggage and Chen Jindou as his deputy, reorganized the army and headed west.

Zhang Shenyan was strangely nervous along the way. He was the person under surveillance, but he could also analyze some of the intelligence through some trivial information.

When Zhang Shun entered the enemy camp, Zhang Shenyan was surprised and happy, hoping that the two gangs would be able to bite each other, and both sides would suffer in the end, saving the government the trouble of encirclement and suppression. Of course, things eventually went in a direction that he couldn't accept. The two thieves actually worked together and helped each other. They were closer than the relationship between the government and the government.

What shocked him even more was that when Zhang Shun entered the enemy camp, the unprepared "bandit" staff actually united and temporarily maintained the normal decision-making of the team. As a figure who came out of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Shenyan certainly knew the difficulty and had a deeper understanding of the meaning behind this behavior.

This shows that this "bandit" has outstanding personality and charm, and his subordinates have initially formed relevant organizational grammar, which is the foundation for the establishment of a political power. Like the Mongolian and southwestern chieftains before the Ming Dynasty, there were often situations where the safety of the group depended on the leader. When the leader was present, it threatened one party; when the leader was gone, the tree fell and the hozens dispersed. This shows that the "thieves and bandits" in front of us are indeed more threatening and more worthy of exchanging their lives for their own lives.

It's just that for some reason, two groups of thieves spent two days together, one attacked the city and the other headed west. There was no joint venture, and I don’t know whether the two parties broke up on bad terms or reached other agreements. With no choice, Zhang Shenyan had no choice but to sit on the bullock cart, drift with the tide, and follow Zhang Shun's troops.

It's just that Zhang Shenyan doesn't want to deal with Zhang Shun, but Zhang Shun doesn't want to let him go. Zhang Shun took the opportunity to approach Zhang Shenyan on the way and asked with a smile: "How is your health, sir? Are you used to your diet? If you have any internal emergencies along the way, please inform us in time."

"No! I'm not used to it at all." Zhang Shenyan didn't want to pay attention to him, but couldn't help but choke him a few words. Talking about "old man" and "internal urgency" may sound like nice words, but they are very harsh.

"That's great!" Zhang Shun held up his hands and said with a smile, "My mother has suffered a lot, and now it's your turn."

"Get lost!" Zhang Shenyan heard this and couldn't help but said angrily, "You unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and shameless person! Don't taint my ears with your words, don't taint my eyes in front of me!"

"Unfaithful and unfilial?" Zhang Shun laughed and said, "That's exactly what you said. Do you know what I am doing?"

Zhang Shenyan closed his eyes and did not listen when he heard the words. He was out of sight and out of mind.

Zhang Shun was not angry, and continued: "But it's me who has joined the gang this time, and I need to submit a certificate of surrender. After much thought, I realized that we are all our own family members, so we can't kill them excessively. Please give me a handwritten letter from the boss. That cheap brother also saves you from fighting with swords and ruins the family relationship."

Zhang Shenyan was shocked when he heard this and wanted to get out of the car and fight him. However, the soldiers watching around him had a good eye and caught him in time.

Zhang Shun smiled and said: "Whether you want to write or not is up to you. If you come to Tuncheng Village and there is no handwriting, I will handwrite one myself and attach it to your palm. You will have no worries."

Zhang Shenyan was shocked and frightened when he heard this. He didn't know what tricks this guy was playing. Listening to his words and watching his actions, he actually wants to harm Tuncheng Village, but why should he write it in his own handwriting? In panic, Zhang Shenyan thought to himself: This person is just a bandit. Forgive him that he has not read any books. I just pretend to agree to be with him and leave some warnings.

So he pretended to be afraid and said: "We are all a family after all, why should we do this? Then I will write a few words, and you can bring me a pen."

Then, when Zhang Shun sent someone to bring him pen, ink, paper and inkstone, he wrote: "I have heard that I have been away from my hometown for a few days. How is the city? Please don't miss me!"

Then he wrote his signature and handed it to Zhang Shun, asking: "Is this book feasible?"

Zhang Shun didn't even look at it and said with a smile: "Thank you for your trouble, sir. This handwritten letter will definitely protect our family from worries."

Zhang Shenyan was doubtful and confused. He didn't know what this guy was planning to do. He felt quite uneasy, but he also thought about it and didn't have any clue.

But when Zhang Shun got the handwritten letter, he didn't even read the nonsense sentences. After thinking about it for a moment, he picked up Zhang Shenyan's remaining pen, picked up the paper, and wrote: "The Ming Dynasty personally expresses this, today." I have received a handwritten letter from Mr. Zhang Tao Shen Yan. The thieves are about to attack Tuncheng. Please ask the Ming government not to give up and lead the soldiers to ambush Tuncheng and capture the thief. Zhang Luxuan, a member of the army, pays his respects."

Afterwards, he sent people off together, and he led his troops to follow quickly. When he arrived at Tuncheng, Zhang Shun just threatened people outside and did not stop. Zhang Shenyan was frightened and frightened for a long time, but he found out that the man just made a false shot and crossed the Qinshui River.

After waiting for another day, Zhang Shenyan was taken to a remote place by Zhang Shun's messengers and was not allowed to speak. Zhang Shenyan felt even more strange and was about to find Zhang Shun and ask what the hell was going on. As a result, I suddenly heard the sound of fighting not far away. After about a stick of incense, Zhang Shun walked over with a smile. He also brought a tied-up official in front of him.

Zhang Shenyan took a look and saw that it was Chen Zhixian, the official of Yangcheng's parents. When the county magistrate Chen saw Zhang Shenyan, he couldn't help but said angrily: "Zhang Shenyan, it is untrue that you are a third-grade official. I risked my life to come to save you, but I didn't expect that you would join the bandits and use your tricks to make money for everyone in Yangcheng."

When Zhang Shenyan heard this, he asked in surprise: "Why did the Ming Dynasty come to this? Why did they falsely accuse me?"
