First Minister of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 431: Zhang Xianggong broke the city

"You do not deserve!"

These three words deeply hurt Chen Youliang, isn't he worthy?

Although he came from a humble background and was just a fisherman, he was better than a beggar like Zhu Chongba.

He was the last to join the Red Scarf, but his power developed the fastest. At one point, he was sitting on the territory of three provinces, with hundreds of thousands of troops and thousands of ships.

If Chen Youliang devoured the master and killed Ni Wenjun and Xu Shouhui in a row, then Guo Zixing would end just fine? Are you Zhu Yuanzhang so clean?

"Zhu Chongba, I was just unlucky for a while and ended up where I am today. But don't be complacent, one day, you will be 10,000 times worse than me!"

"No!" Lao Zhu sneered: "No!"

"You're deceiving yourself!" Chen Youliang leaned out and grinned: "Zhu Yuanzhang, you're a hypocrite. At this time, you're still pretending! I don't think you'll end well!"

Lao Zhu said: "Chen Youliang, you are just saving others by yourself, your mind is filthy, and everything looks like this... To be honest, we thought we would meet a character who could match our opponents, but we didn't expect it to be like a shrew. Generally, what a disappointment."

A shrew completely broke Chen Youliang's defense. He was so angry that he wanted to grab a bow and arrow and shoot Zhu Yuanzhang, but it was too late to be 200 paces away.

If he wanted to bring the crossbow arrows over, Lao Zhu wouldn't just stand there and wait for him to shoot.

All that Chen Youliang was left with was his incompetence and rage, and Zhu Yuanzhang turned his horse around and wanted to leave.

Zhang Ximeng suddenly said: "My lord, it is indeed a waste of energy for you to talk nonsense with this shrew. Why don't you tell him a few words!"

Old Zhu paused, nodded and said, "Alright!"

Zhang Ximeng raised his head, looked at Chen Youliang at the duokou, and suddenly smiled, "Chen Youliang, you still think that you are unlucky today... This is somewhat similar to Xiang Yu of Gaixia. Incompetent, I can only complain about the number of days, but unfortunately I am not talented. I have written articles long ago, refuting the theory of destiny, and I don’t believe in any sense of heaven and man! Today, when things come to an end, you are still a fool, which makes people laugh. !"

"You, what are you, you deserve to teach me a lesson?"

"Hahaha! I'm not really an expert, but after all, I still have a pen in my hand. You Chen Youliang's eulogy was probably written by me. Hundreds of years later, when the coffin is finalized, it is estimated that I will also quote this. This article." Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "Chen Youliang, after saying that, do you still dare to underestimate me?"

Chen Youliang's face was ashen, staring at Zhang Ximeng, and suddenly said viciously: "So you are Zhu Yuanzhang's son of a bitch, you are the one who deceived people and made plans for Zhu Chongba, I, I will kill him!"

How could Zhang Ximeng care about the threat of a future dead person? He just smiled lightly, "Chen Youliang, you are a hero, but now, let you be a clear ghost! If you say anything about destiny, you probably can't answer the simplest ones. The problem."

"Chen Youliang, under the Ming Dynasty, under my Ming Dynasty, there were people in the early 20s and 20 million, and the summer grain collection totaled 8.5 million shi, of which about 3 million shi was used to support soldiers and officials, and the rest were used to build roads and build water conservancy projects. , to build a school... Autumn grain is more than summer grain, and it is basically distributed in the same way, in addition to relief for disaster victims, debt relief and other items..."

Chen Youliang gritted his teeth, and when he heard Zhang Ximeng reporting the bill to him, he was furious, "You, are you showing off how much food and money you have? Back then, Yuan Ting had an army of one million, but it still collapsed at the touch of a button! You can't scare me!"

Zhang Ximeng couldn't help shaking his head and sighed, "Chen Youliang, you are really confused... I tell you this number because I want to say that in addition to tax collection, take Jiangnan Plain as an example... A family of five can have almost three leftovers. Ten shi of grain, an average of six shi per person, according to our current standard, one shi shi is 120 catties, and six shi shi is 720 catties, almost two catties per person per day.”

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said: "This is the livelihood of the people under the Ming Dynasty... Although some places are poor and the yield per mu is not high, there is also a lot of corresponding land, so the overall surplus grain is not much different. Calculated according to the head, after a year, The worst is 300 to 500 kilograms... Although this figure is incomparable to the prosperous Tang Dynasty, even Zhao Song is inferior. But we have eliminated the tyrannical powers and equalized the land and wealth, so that the common people do not need to be exploited any more. exist."

"In addition to the farmland, there are mulberry fields, fruit trees, and some fish ponds and ditches, which can be used to raise silkworms and reel silk. Besides, we encourage the prosperity of various industries in rural areas and make money by craftsmanship. Therefore, in Jinling and other places, the first ones were taken down. On the site, people can basically eat and clothe themselves.”

"There is one more thing, I also want to tell you that we have been vigorously promoting learning recently. Taking Yingtian as an example, more than 30% of the school children have entered the school and can study. The gap between the rest of the places is not small, but it is also actively promoting. Sooner or later, we will enable more than 70% of the people to read and read."

Speaking of this, Zhang Ximeng's face was full of calm smiles, "Chen Youliang, didn't you say that the destiny is not there and the luck is not good? I ask you, how much tax can you collect under your rule? Your people can eat it. How much food is there? How many people can go to school and study and make progress?"

Chen Youliang did not speak for a long time, and the city was silent.

Zhang Ximeng laughed loudly, "Chen Youliang, you are also the master of one party. Do you know these things? Since you don't know everything, how can you have the face to say the destiny? Could it be that God sent the food to us?"

"You...you lied!" Chen Youliang was furious, shook his head and said angrily: "Zhang Ximeng, you are shaking your lips, rhetoric, and you want to weaken my prestige, so you make a swollen face and become a fat man. Does anyone know?"

Tani

Hearing this, even Zhang Ximeng couldn't help but laugh.

"Chen Youliang, I'm not telling you this to show off... I just want to tell you that we still have a lot of room to work... Food can fill our stomachs, we also need to eat some meat, some chickens, ducks, fish eggs, and house clothes... We have never I don’t think I’m doing well. Since you think we’re showing off, we’re slapping our faces and making us fat. That means you’re still clear about how people’s livelihood will be under your rule? Is it true or not?”

Chen Youliang was stunned, what else is there to say?

yes!

If Chen Han's livelihood was far better than that under Zhu Yuanzhang, how could he break the defense after listening to Zhang Ximeng's report?

If you can't reach it, you can't reach it.

"Zhang Ximeng, you, you are so eloquent! Insidious and cunning, don't worry, I won't admit defeat easily!"

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said: "Chen Youliang, even at this time, you are still stubborn and hopeless. I say this, I hope you understand that Wang Chengkou defeats, everything is the heart of the people. Divide the fields, cherish the people, restore the people's livelihood, and make the people have enough food. We have been going all the way, and this will not change. How can tomorrow's son be confident and not repeat the same mistakes. Because we are different from the upstarts like you. Fortune, jump up and become a hegemon."

"Someone scolds you for continuously eating the master, but you are not convinced. But if you do well, let alone bite the master, even if you kill your brother and imprison your father, you will still be a famous emperor! Ni Wenjun and Xu Shouhui are just getting rid of two hemorrhoids. The world will only praise you for your wise, wise, and courageous people. But until now, you are still arrogant and conceited, and you don't even know where you lost."

"Chen Youliang, you only need to go for a walk in the countryside, see what the people eat and wear, and ask them what they think, and you will know how badly you are doing! Jinghu is the granary of the world, and the population is not dense. How can people starve to death? It's not you, you don't have any idea of ​​people's livelihood and disease, all you think about is building ships and gathering soldiers, thinking that relying on hundreds of thousands of troops and going down the river, you can destroy us!"

"Chen Youliang, don't you think it's ridiculous? If you are like you, knocking the bones and sucking the marrow, and squeezing the marrow, it is not difficult for me to get a million army! But I am overdrawing the people's strength, and I don't want to give the people a benefit, how can I win the support of the people? People's hearts Like a river, it is rolling. You and I, tomorrow, are both boats on the river. We have a solid foundation and are safe and sound.

"Chen Youliang, to this day, you are just taking the blame for yourself and you are dying. I would like to see how many people are willing to burn with you and die together!"

After Zhang Ximeng finished speaking, he also turned around and rode away, returning to the military camp with Zhu Yuanzhang... When the monarch and ministers returned, the voice of Long Live could be heard in the military camp.

Zhang Xiang said it too well, Chen Youliang is not even a primary school child in front of our Zhang Xiang, and can only be taught by ears.

The morale of the Ming army is high and people are excited.

On the other hand, Chen Youliang's side, especially those soldiers who heard Zhang Ximeng's words, were all shocked. Facing the enemy's prime minister, they couldn't lift their heads.

And ordinary soldiers are even more stunned... Each person has several hundred catties of grain a year, an average of one or two catties of rice a day... There are raw silk and other income.

Can eat enough, can read... This, I'm afraid this is not the day of the gods!

I didn't see our majesty being so angry, everyone said, if your life in Chen Han is really good, do you need to be angry?

Why don't you tell the truth and slap the other person's face?

No no no no!

In this battle between kings and kings, Chen Youliang was completely defeated, a complete defeat.

Chen Youliang also knew about this matter. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com he was impatient and ordered that he was not allowed to discuss this matter. The prospect depicted is really alluring.

Even if it's only half, it's much better than it is now.

The night was shrouded, Zhang Ximeng was eating, and suddenly Guo Ying came in from outside.

"Sir, you are amazing!"

Zhang Ximeng put down the tableware and said with a smile, "What's the matter?"

"Sir, don't you know? Just now, a few soldiers from the city sneaked out and joined us. The superior said that this was Zhang Xiang's words, which opened up Wuchang City, please come over and discuss the military situation!"
