King Luhuang of the Ming Dynasty: My father, Ming Taizu

Chapter 27 Rizhao County! Survival!

Then I thought again.

Tang He couldn't help but smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He had already learned about the virtues of his son-in-law through these people in Shandong.

It is simply a fantasy to expect that a foolish and ignorant prince who only cares about cultivating immortals and is ridiculous and shameless will suddenly become responsible and turn to exterminate Japanese pirates!

Ugh.
  Tang He couldn't help but sigh.

Daughter.

Father, I'm sorry for you!

soon.

The whole of Shandong is taking action!
  Go all out to save Rizhao!

sunshine.

Zhu Tan was riding a horse with a relaxed expression on his face.

Beside him was Yang Chang, the commander of Anton Guard.

Yang Chang's face was unnatural.

Originally, I thought of Anton Wei and King Lu being separated.

After all, when he saw so many captures and prisoners, he felt inexplicably distressed.

He obviously deserves all the credit!
  Tens of millions of taels of silver were seized!
  Credit for killing hundreds of Japanese pirates!
  however.

Now it has nothing to do with me!
  Just because of my short-sightedness
  If I follow King Lu honestly and my current achievements are spread to the imperial court, I guess my commander will become the commander-in-chief!

It is not impossible to even be crowned a noble and honorable ancestor!
  Unfortunately, there is nothing now.

Only the cold 40,000 Guan treasure note
  If it weren't for the fact that the amount was too large and Yang Chang was reluctant to throw it away, he would have thrown it away long ago.

So as not to feel even more uncomfortable after seeing it!
  I want this without giving up my huge achievements?
  but.

Here Yang Chang wants to leave more and more.

Zhu Tanyue refused to give in!
  Instead, he said that Anton Wei needed to accompany him to escort the prisoners, so he asked Yang Chang to follow him!

Yin Shao knew what Zhu Tan was thinking.

It was nothing more than wanting to show Rizhao’s contribution to Yang Chang.

Make him regret even more!

The prince has such a dark heart.
  1 taels of silver made people work hard for so long, but when things came to a head, they didn't get a dime of credit, but they had to wait on them from the beginning to the end!

but.

This seems to be the character of the prince
  Yin Shao couldn't help but think.

Yang Chang also cursed King Lu in his heart.

However, he is just a third-grade commander, and he certainly does not dare to offend King Lu.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue moving forward with King Lu.

Don't know where he is going.

but.

Soon, Yang Chang saw the county seat not far away.

He couldn't help but said: "Rizhao? Your Majesty, this is the territory of Qingzhou. If your army does not return to the vassal territory, do you still want to enter the county?"

Zhu Tan smiled and said: "I'm not going into the county, I'm just here to collect some credit."

talking.

Zhu Tan gave Yang Chang a thumbs up and said: "General Yang is so generous! He has done such a great service, but he is not moved at all and only wants ten thousand taels of silver! If this matter is told, who would dare to believe it!"

Yang Chang's face turned red and hot, and he cursed Zhu Tan in his heart!

Have you taken medicine and damaged your brain?
  Am I not moved?

If I knew that you could make such a big contribution, it had nothing to do with me, I would have to get some of it!

What has become now?

However, you want to take some credit?
  What does it mean?
  Haven’t you already received the credit?

Listening to Zhu Tan's success every time, Yang Chang was also a little upset!
  What do you, a prince, want to take credit for?
  No matter how meritorious he is, he cannot be promoted to an official position!

If you add more, you will become an emperor!
  All the credit goes to you, it’s a waste!
  Why is this world so unfair?

The more people who need it, the less they have, and the people who have less need, the more rich they are!
  Yin Shao wanted to laugh while listening.

soon.

As the army gets closer to Rizhao.

Only then did Yang Chang realize something was wrong!

In the distance, there is clearly another army, under the banner of King Lu Wei!

Look outside the county seat.

Yang Chang's pupils suddenly shrank!

He clearly saw dead bodies scattered on the ground!

Moreover, most of the people lying down are real Japanese!
  Looking around, there are hundreds of them!

Yang Chang looked at Zhu Tan and said with shock on his face: "Your Majesty, what happened to the Japanese pirates in Rizhao County?" Zhu Tan smiled and said: "Thank you!"

soon.

Under the command of Lu Wangwei, Zhao Quan rushed over.

"Your Majesty! A great victory in Rizhao, a great victory! We killed more than 300 real Japanese and more than 400 false Japanese! We also captured the Japanese leader Zhang Tieniu!"

Hear this.

Zhu Tan smiled with satisfaction.

beside him.

Yang Chang's eyes widened, his whole body swayed, and he almost fell off his horse!

"Killed so many Japanese pirates again!"

Zhu Tan nodded and said: "So, General Yang is so grand! He doesn't care about the merits of being knighted!"

Zhao Quan was confused when he heard this.

What is the credit for the knighthood?

beside him.

Yin Shao whispered to Zhao Quan that Yang Chang took 40,000 yuan of treasure notes and gave up his credit.

Zhao Quan couldn't help but look at Yang Chang.

"General Yang, this is a feat that can lead to a knighthood! You gave up for ten thousand taels of silver? Why? Is it because you don't like it?"

Yang Chang:.
  not far away.

Within the county.

Suddenly a large group of people came.

The leader was wearing county magistrate attire.

It was Wang Huai, the magistrate of Rizhao County.

Behind him were three squads of yamen servants and six scribes.

There are countless other people.

Wang Huai and others walked quickly to Zhu Tan.

He bowed deeply and said respectfully: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful. He killed the Japanese pirates and ensured the peace of our county. The people are grateful and have nothing to repay!"

behind him.

The station was full of people carrying rice, noodles, chickens and ducks, and even driving pigs, cows, sheep and other livestock!

Everyone knelt down together: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful! Kill the Japanese pirates! The sun shines on the people, be grateful!"

Japanese pirates are notorious on the coast of Shandong.

This time.

The people of Rizhao also saw the amazing number of these Japanese pirates!
  Usually there are only dozens or hundreds of people, but this time, there are nearly a thousand people!
  What’s even more heart palpitating is.

This time, the Japanese pirates actually had an internal agent!

If it weren't for the timely rescue by King Lu's army, I'm afraid the entire city would have been massacred by these Japanese pirates!

Yin Shao looked at Zhu Tan with a smile on his face.

Your Highness is becoming more and more wise and worthy of following you.
  Yang Chang snorted unnaturally.

He just looked sad.

Originally, I also had a share of this glory.
  Zhu Tan coughed lightly and was about to say something to calm everyone down.

Suddenly I thought about it again.

I am King Lu!

Ridiculous prince!

Why do you become so wise?
  What's more.

Even if you want to become wise, it is not now.

Moreover, in the Ming Dynasty, it may not be a good thing if the prince is too wise!
  No matter for the prince Zhu Biao or the later emperor grandson Zhu Yunwen.

If the prince is wise, it means a threat!

You can't be the emperor, so why do you get so many people's support?
  Zhu Tan would rather everyone think of him in a bad light.

In this way, you will be safer.

At this time, he looked at the county magistrate Wang Huai, frowned and said, "What are the people behind you doing with so much food?"

Wang Huai was stunned for a moment, and said inexplicably: "Laojun, Your Highness led the army to rescue all the people in my city. He has worked so hard. Of course he must be rewarded!"

Zhu Tan waved his hands and said, "Do you have any money? I don't like these worthless things!"

Wang Huai heard this.

Suddenly everyone froze.

Since ancient times, the common people and local laborers have been producing rice, flour and meat!
  No one can give money!

How much money can a mere county town put out?
  not to mention
  Right now, these things have hollowed out Rizhao County.
  Wang Huai couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Your Highness, although Rizhao County is not a small town, it does not have much money. If you really need it, I will work hard to find it for Your Highness."
