Ming Zuo

Chapter 538 tit for tat
"Zuo Zongrong has always been brave, His Majesty knows it very well. He often said in private: To be a general is like Zuo Kunshan. In the face of big right and wrong, I hope you don't make mistakes."

After the death threat, Gao Qiqian made another lure.

From Xie Wenju, he has learned about Zuo Liangyu's character.

This is a scum with no moral bottom line.

Greedy for money and lustful, seeking fame and fortune, forgetting righteousness for profit, cruel and bloodthirsty.

Even with Gao Qiqian's personality, he has murderous intentions towards Zuo Liangyu.

However, Zuo Liangyu is of great use, Chongzhen even solemnly warned that he must make good use of Zuo Liangyu's identity to deal with Zuo Menggeng.

The imperial court really has no soldiers to send, Zuo Liangyu is crucial to quell the chaos in Shandong.

Hearing what Gao Qiqian said, Zuo Liangyu's heart beat wildly.

His Majesty actually knew him!
Doesn't that mean...

"Zuo Zongrong, turn the tide and help the building to collapse. This achievement is as great as the founding of the country! Whether you can be appointed as a marquis or a minister is entirely up to you."

Zuo Liangyu completely drifted away.

What kind of relationship and affection?
What family blood?
All of them completely dissipated in front of the words Feng Hou Bai Xiang.

"The last general's loyalty can show the sun and the moon. In order to repay the emperor's favor, he will do anything. That little beast is rebellious, and the last general will definitely kill his relatives in righteousness to protect the safety of the Ming Dynasty."

"it is good!"

Gao Qiqian stared at Zuo Liangyu, full of praise, but his eyes were full of vigilance.

As the saying goes, tiger poison does not eat seeds.

This person in front of him, for the sake of glory and wealth, betrayed his relatives without hesitation.

The evil of human nature can be the worst in the world.

I don't know if one day, for profit, he will also betray himself?

"Zuo Liangyu, His Majesty has an order..."

Zuo Liangyu hurriedly prostrated himself on the ground, looking respectful like the number one loyal minister in Tianzi.

Gao Qiqian took out the imperial edict.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the system said: When the country is in trouble, think of good generals, and you will know your loyal ministers. Han had Su Wu Mu Festival, and Song had Danqing Puzhao. I inherited Tianze in Ming Dynasty, expelled Tartars, and revived China. There are more than two hundred statues in the country. The orthodoxy of the emperor and the Han Dynasty promotes the heavenly power of China. Although it is a small country today, there are loyal ministers and good generals who will continue to succeed. It has achievements in the court, and the report is not in the hope of things. Qin Erning Nanbo, I hope that Er will be the re-entry of Jiting, and he will not flinch from his shoulders. He is deeply loyal to Xu Guo, and he embraces the strategy of the palace gang. Sweep the house first, and then pacify the world. The elegant name of the Qingshu will shine through the ages. I admire it!"

This is knighted?
Zuo Liangyu hit the pendulum excitedly.

What did he do?
To be so honored.

But he figured it out quickly.

It's not about rewarding him for what he's done.

It's what the court wants him to do.

This reward is sweetness.

If he really does it, he will have a bright future.

Zuo Liangyu is only in his thirties now, and he has already been made an earl.

Doesn't that mean that the marquis and duke can expect something in the future?

As for the son...

Thinking of Zuo Menggeng's outrageous disobedience, Zuo Liangyu felt that his son could be reborn after losing his son.

As for the title, if you miss this time, you may be hopeless in this life.

Once thought through, the idea is clear.

Zuo Liangyu bowed three times and kowtowed nine times, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty's kindness is mighty, and I can only tie a grass ring and repay him with death."

Seeing that he really took the bait, Gao Qiqian and Xie Wenju were overjoyed.Surrounded him from left to right and pulled him up.

That explains the plan.

"The dead men of Yanzhou Mansion have arrived at the capital. His Royal Highness King Lu and the prefect of Yanzhou cried for help. Heng Fan and De Fan were killed by the Dongjiang thieves earlier, and the world was in an uproar, and the people's hearts were unstable. Your Majesty, let me come to the rescue In the name of Yanzhou, he sent troops to Shandong Province. Seeing the opportunity, he captured your son and escorted him before your majesty. Your majesty said that if your son repents in the future, it is not impossible to spare his life."

Zuo Liangyu's face was cold, and he patted his chest to express his loyalty.

"Hmph, how can you show the majesty of the law if you don't punish these beasts without a king or father? Your majesty is magnanimous and compassionate, but the general has to distinguish right from wrong."

Gao Qiqian and Xie Wenju secretly felt palpitations, they didn't expect this person to be so decisive when he became ruthless.

"Okay, come here..."

Following Gao Qiqian's call, several unfamiliar generals walked in.

"These are all warriors carefully selected by His Majesty. If you want to deal with your son, you must have these people with superb martial arts. Now I will hand it over to Zuo Zongrong. I hope you will succeed in this battle."

Accompanied by Gao Qiqian's words, those warriors stepped up from left and right, protecting Zuo Liangyu in the middle.

Zuo Liangyu immediately understood that these people were actually monitoring her.

Once he has second thoughts, the sharp blades in these people's hands can immediately kill his own head.

Originally, he still had a little hesitation, but seeing this situation, he could only feel ruthless.

"Little bastard, don't blame me for being cruel."

On the eighth day of March, Zuo Liangyu, under the supervision of Gao Qiqian and Xie Wenju, gathered a large army, broke away from the ranks of encircling and suppressing the bandits in the northwest, and sent his troops eastward, heading towards Shandong.

Before the army left Henan, the intelligence had already been sent to Shandong.

Zuo Menggeng returned to Linqing urgently to discuss countermeasures with all senior officials.

"The imperial court will not give up until the Yellow River."

Hou Xun was filled with emotion, and really didn't know how to evaluate the stupid people in the court.

Li Banghua was a little embarrassed.

"This move can be regarded as drawing fire from the bottom of the pot. The imperial court takes Zuo Kunshan as its banner, and the world knows the relationship between Zhongheng and Zuo Kunshan. If there is a real swordsmanship, Zhongheng will fall into the mouth of the world. When the infamy will come, it will be Afraid that I will become the public enemy of the world."

For a while, many people looked at Zuo Menggeng, waiting for him to make a decision.

Anyway, in everyone's mind, encountering such a thing is really difficult.

Zuo Menggeng's expression became much calmer.

"Guys, can we give up our careers?"

No one answered, but everyone's resolute looks showed everything.

Things have come to this point, it is no longer a question of ideal or not.

Even if they put down their weapons and begged for mercy, they would inevitably die if they fell into the hands of the court.

Of course Zuo Menggeng understood their intentions.

"Since we are engaged in a correct and great cause, why should we be afraid? During the Three Kingdoms years ago, the Zhuge family was an official in Wei, Shu, and Wu, and they were hostile to each other. Have they ever cared about family? My father , since he has become a thug of the old feudal forces, if he does not cut off his minions, will the cause we have created with great difficulty be destroyed?"

It's a simple truth, but it's difficult to get over the hurdle of family affection.

No one knew why Zuo Menggeng was able to do so easily and resolutely.

Even if he himself, he probably couldn't come up with the answer.

It can only be attributed to the heart that wants to save this ancient nation.

The more core reason is actually that he has been influenced by the soul of later generations, and has gradually drifted away from his original self.

Under the long-term edification and influence, the current Zuo Menggeng is completely different from his past self.

Among the relatives, such as the Huang family and Zuo Xianmei, who follow his ideas and get close to him, they will naturally be treated as relatives by him.

He really couldn't accept a person like Zuo Liangyu, who is selfish and selfish, who only wants to get promoted and get rich, and violates the laws of history, like Zuo Liangyu.

"Which troops are currently in Linqing?"

Liu Yiyuan hurriedly said, "The second and fourth regiments of the fourth division are here."

Zuo Menggeng asked again: "How many soldiers and horses did my father bring?"

Zuo Fu replied, "About three thousand."

Zuo Menggeng has a bottom line in his heart.

"Then there is no need to transfer additional troops, just use the strength of these two regiments to deal with my father."

But everyone knows that the two regiments of the new army have about [-] troops.

With the force of the new army, once it is equal to the number of opponents, it will basically be crushed.

The outcome of the battle was never worrying.

Since Zuo Menggeng, the leader, can be so resolute, they just need to be good helpers.

Liu Zongzhou thought more.

"After this battle, regardless of victory or defeat, Zhongheng will be condemned. Although our army is strong and invincible in the world, it is not enough to rely on force to conquer the world. The key is the people's will. When you come down, you have to think about it carefully, and you must fight the following debate well."

For his point of view, Zuo Menggeng only has deep admiration.

"When you read Taigong, the key to winning this debate is—the one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world."

Everyone was greatly inspired, and there was no doubt or confusion.They are gearing up one after another, ready to use paper and pen to compete with the old feudal forces.
