Chapter 708

In the flower hall of Hu Mansion.

"Yes, we are too swollen..." The seven monkeys stopped trying to make themselves fat at this time, and said dejectedly: "I thought I had an iron ticket to protect me, so what's the point of killing a spy? I didn't expect that the emperor had so much. Find a way to deal with us."

"You idiots, that iron plate may be of some use to your descendants, if your descendants can survive into the future!" Hu Weiyong said coldly:
"But what's the use now? That's not what the emperor sent to you. If he says it's useful, it's useful. If he says it's useless, it's useless. You don't even need to say anything. I'll torture you like Liao Yongzhong until you're still alive and send him home. .Even if you die that night, it won’t be considered a renegade!”

"Alas..." The seven princes nodded dejectedly when they heard this. Before, they would have thought that Hu Xiang couldn't eat the grapes and said the grapes were sour.But over the past few months, they have experienced firsthand that the emperor has many ways to circumvent the iron bonds to deal with him.

"When you are in power, you always practice what you say. Who would have thought that when you become the emperor, you will have nothing to say anymore." Tang Shengzong said in a dull voice.

"You guys, you still don't study enough." Hu Weiyong sighed: "How could any of the founding emperors of the past dynasties not withdraw their military power? The seven of you originally held more than [-]% of the country's military strength. You still don't know how to restrain yourself. Can the Emperor not deal with you?"

"Yes, it will be a matter of time..." Wu Liang also calmed down at this time and began to cooperate with Hu Weiyong.

"Originally, if you obediently handed over your military power and iron bonds, you might have become a rich man." Hu Weiyong then threatened:
"But now, you have slapped the emperor hard on the face, and you have made a deadly feud with the fourth child. If you are completely powerless, do you still want to have a happy ending?"

"Impossible." Lu Zhongheng's fear was the strongest, and his voice was naturally the loudest. "Haven't you seen it yet? Everyone in the emperor's family will retaliate. Except for the prince, no one can tolerate others. When the time comes, they will definitely be played to the point of death."

"Yes, Prime Minister Hu is an example." Tang Shengzong and others nodded in agreement: "He is still the prime minister, and he has been treated like this. If it were him, we would not be able to resist."

"The prince is not a good bird either. He looks like a Bodhisattva, but in fact he is full of evil..." Hu Weiyong felt disgusted in his heart.If you are paralyzed, you won’t give examples if you don’t know how to give them. There is no need to lift them blindly.On the face, he agreed very much:

"That's what it means. Now you will die if you advance, and you will die if you retreat. You all want to be safe in front of you. When the time comes, you will be slaughtered by others, and your wife and daughter will be sent to the office to receive guests. It is better to give me a fight - even if it means death , I want to bite off a piece of their flesh too!"

After a pause, he tilted his lips again and said domineeringly: "Besides, we may not lose!"

"That's right, if a person dies and a bird looks up to the sky, he will not die for tens of thousands of years!" Li Cunyi, who had been silent all this time, slapped the table and shouted: "If you win, you will be rich and noble, and you will never have to be criticized by anyone again!"

"Nothing wrong!" Wu Liang also echoed loudly: "Back then, when we were desperate, we dared to rebel! Now that we are desperate again, the worst we can do is do it again!"

"What a coward!" Fei Ju and the others also got excited and slapped the table and yelled: "Fuck you!"

~~
After reaching a consensus, the next step is what to do.

Rebellion, an extremely difficult undertaking, cannot be accomplished by talking big and boasting.You have to have that strength, understand?
Moreover, they have all worked with Boss Zhu once. They have never eaten pork and have seen Zhu Pao.At least they knew that in order for the rebellion to succeed, they needed an army and the support of the gentry.

Of course, it all depends on the number of days. If it wasn't fate for him to be in the position, or divine help, it wouldn't be his turn to be the emperor.

"What do we have with these?" All eight of them were a little confused.

"If things were going well before, we would have soldiers in our hands, and we would just work hard to do our damn thing." Zhao Yong, the former Nanxiong Marquis, said in a dull voice: "But now, the military power has been taken away by the emperor, so we just have to rely on what we have The servants rebelled and couldn't even break through Chang'an Gate." "Yes, Prime Minister Hu, why didn't you tell me earlier." Lu'an Hou Wang Zhi also muttered.

"I told you earlier, how dare you do it?" Hu Weiyong said to himself, if I hadn't been turned into a destitute old man, I wouldn't have rebelled even if I was beaten to death.He said angrily: "Wasn't it because the emperor gave down the military power that everyone knew that a disaster was coming, so they couldn't help but fight?"

"Yes." The monkeys murmured, and the former Marquis of Yan'an Tang Shengzong asked: "But Prime Minister Hu, do we still have a chance of winning?"

"If you start a rebellion, you will definitely be defeated." Hu Weiyong said calmly: "He is the first person in history to rise to the throne. From a beggar to the legend of the emperor, he is the great master of rebellion! Don't say that you are now, even if you still have military power. With this in hand, what are your chances of winning against a superior?"

"That's negligible." The monkeys said in frustration. They had been fighting with Boss Zhu all their lives, and they knew that the most powerful military god in the Ming Dynasty was not Xu Da or Chang Yuchun, but their big boss Zhu Yuanzhang.

Although after the Battle of Poyang Lake, Boss Zhu only sat in the rear and no longer personally led troops into battle.But before every war, he would personally preside over military meetings to analyze the situation between the enemy and ourselves for the generals participating in the war, deduce the progress of the war, and formulate detailed combat plans for them.

Moreover, Boss Zhu is different from micro-manipulation masters like Che Shen and Kai Shen. Those two are blind commanders, but he is a genius military strategist who has a clear understanding of war and can make accurate predictions.

He can make the soldiers know clearly before the battle when to advance, when to retreat, when to stand firm, and when to fight to the death. When fighting, they will naturally understand clearly, work together, and cooperate with each other tacitly. .

Let's just say that from the beginning until now, Boss Zhu's instructions have not gone wrong.Even the only defeat of the Ming Army, the Battle of Lingbei, was caused by the generals of the Central Route Army being dazzled by the victory, failing to follow Boss Zhu's established combat strategy, and going deep alone.

This only deepened the Ming Dynasty's officers and soldiers' superstition that Boss Zhu used his troops like a god.

So even if it was bragging, no one in this group of arrogant warriors dared to brag that they could defeat Boss Zhu.

~~
"So, it doesn't make much difference whether you have military power or not." Hu Weiyong said lightly.

In fact, the difference is huge, but that’s all I can say at this time.Otherwise, everyone would be so frightened that they would pee, and why would they start a rebellion?

"But if we don't have soldiers, how can we rebel?" The military leaders' understanding was so simple.

"Who said I was going to rebel?" Hu Weiyong said quietly: "I said it was a coup and rebellion. This has never happened before in the Ming Dynasty. Everyone said it was a 'big girl getting on the sedan chair - this is the first time'. The emperor is good at fighting. , he has no experience in dealing with coups, so this is our opportunity."

"So what is a coup?" Lu Zhongheng couldn't help but ask, and the others looked at Hu Weiyong with a blank expression.

Boss Zhu is not good at what he does, but the monkeys are even less good at it.

"..." Hu Weiyong was speechless for a while. With such a group of insects, could they really pull off a coup?
