Daming: Brother, there is no future for monks, let's rebel

Chapter 503 Zhu Yuanzhang was robbed by bandits
Tang He was an extremely smart person. In the original history, he was one of the few people who could escape from the court unscathed.

Such people generally have a very outstanding advantage.

Regardless of whether he saw something or understood something.

They will not show their emotions easily on their faces, and they will never take the initiative to express their thoughts.

Of course Tang He could tell that the courtiers seemed to be planning something.

However, he was only sent to protect Zhu Biao.

The role of his Qinghe Army is to maintain the stability of the court and prevent people from taking advantage of this opportunity to make small moves.

besides……

I won't do soup or any other unnecessary things.

How to compete with the civil servants in the court is a matter for the prince Zhu Biao.

A rough guy like him knows nothing and can't do anything.

I only know one thing, that is to obey His Majesty the Emperor's orders, that's all.

Seeing the confused look on Tang He's face, Zhu Biao really thought that a fierce general like him, who was good at station chief fighting, didn't understand the twists and turns in the court.

He also said to Tang He sincerely: "Uncle Tang, you don't understand, things are not as simple as they seem on the surface."

"If these ministers make a fuss today, maybe this matter can be revealed."

"They didn't say anything, and no one even expressed their opinions. This only makes me worried."

Tang He looked upright: "Your Highness, please rest assured. If anyone dares to be disrespectful to His Highness, I will kill his entire family."

Zhu Biao was speechless: "Uncle Tang, things are different now. In the past, we were conquering the world, and sometimes we had to be harsher."

"But now, we are governing the world. No matter what happens, we must abide by the law and cannot mess around."

"Even if our Zhu family is a royal family, we cannot do whatever we want unscrupulously. If that were the case, wouldn't the world be in chaos?"

"So, even if I want some people to die in my heart, on the surface, we can't attack them for no reason. We must even be nice to them."

"Uncle Tang, I know that you are a fierce general on the battlefield, and you don't bother to think about these things. But in the future, you should still act before you are thirty."

Seeing Zhu Biao's words so solemnly, Tang He also looked like he suddenly realized: "So that's it. Your Highness the Crown Prince, I have learned from you."

Zhu Biao felt quite surprised.

Tang He was one of the first people to follow Lao Zhu in raising troops. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was the true founding father of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Biao originally thought that people like Tang He would be very proud and look down on him, the Crown Prince.

This is also normal. Anyone who can participate in the cause of building a country from scratch will definitely be very proud.

But what surprised Zhu Biao was that rough men like Tang He who fought on the battlefield were not as difficult to get along with as he imagined.

Even... there is a feeling of spring breeze.

It seems that his prestige is indeed quite high.Even his father's old subordinates didn't dare to be arrogant in front of him.

Even people like Tang He can't completely guess what others are thinking.

If he knew that the Lord Biao was thinking so, he might tell Zhu Biao.

"Your Highness, you think too much."

Tang He just didn't want Lao Zhu to feel that he was getting too close to the prince.

Anyway, on the surface, he is just doing his job as a courtier.

Apart from that, please don’t go to Tanghe for any extra risks.

There are countless ministers in this court who are willing to devote themselves to His Highness the Crown Prince and even die.

Really good soup and one.

Of course, you won’t say what’s in your heart naturally.

Tang He not only did not refute Zhu Biao, but looked respectful, as if he had really been educated by Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao was calm on the surface, but he was already happy in his heart.

After all, the person in front of me who was open-minded and willing to be taught was no one else, but the right-hand man of his father, Dean Zhu.

One of the founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty.

Even if he is a prince, he can't help but feel a little apprehensive when facing such a person.

As a result, Tang He turned out to be so easy to talk to.

"My father is so wise." Zhu Biao was filled with emotion.

I am grateful that Lao Zhu left him such an "obedient" speech.

"Sneeze!" Zhu Yuanzhang, who was heading to Datong, couldn't help but sneeze loudly.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was dressed in coarse cloth.

Behind him was a small donkey with shiny coat. This was a small donkey that I bought after a break in order to be more relaxed when I was on the road.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not ride the donkey, but led him to walk leisurely.

On the little donkey, Queen Ma, who was plainly dressed but still carried a hint of nobility that could not be concealed, sat sideways on the donkey.

The two of them, one behind the other, looked like a group of ordinary young couples on their way.

Zhu Yuanzhang was also strange.

When I was dealing with government affairs in the past, I always felt tired in various ways.

Now I walk for two hours every day. Not only do I not feel tired, but I feel more energetic.

The current Ming Dynasty is in a stage of rapid expansion.

Of course, it’s not that this is bad, but for the sake of expansion, something must be sacrificed.

Just like security.

In this world, there will never be a shortage of people who want to get something for nothing.

If it were placed in the troubled times of the late Yuan Dynasty, it would not be incomprehensible for those who could not survive to become bandits.

But in today's Ming Dynasty, as long as you are willing to endure hardships, you can find a job to make a living no matter what.

Even if you are bolder, you can go to sea with the caravan or something.

After just one or two trips, you can become a small millionaire.

But some people just like to get something for nothing.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma had just entered the territory of Hebei.Because the official road was being repaired, we had to take a detour.

Not long after entering a small road, he was surrounded by more than a dozen people.

"stop!"

Among the dozen or so people, there was a tall man with a sinewy face who roared like thunder in the summer.

"I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree. I want to live from here, and leave money to buy roads!"

Hearing this man's words, Lao Zhu was speechless.

he!
Zhu Yuanzhang, the majestic emperor of Ming Dynasty, was robbed by a group of bandits in the mainland of Ming Dynasty?
Moreover, what the hell were those words that the bandit said?

Has this guy read too many stories?
Zhu Yuanzhang was not uncommon with real bandits, and no one had ever really said such words.

For no other reason than the mountain kings also want to lose face and cannot afford to embarrass this person.

Besides, why do bandits do all these bells and whistles when they are robbing?
In fact, many people are really confused about bandits.In fact, most bandits don't kill people directly when they come up.

These guys are actually more like road bullies.

They just stood on some of the more important roads and took advantage of the large number of people to extort some money from those caravans.

Under normal circumstances, if you can't help it, don't do it.

Bandits also have brains, they don't just know how to kill.

If you think about it, you will understand that it is inevitable to get killed or injured in a fight.

How big can a bandit village be?
If one dies today and another dies tomorrow, it won’t be long before the bandit leader becomes a polished commander.

Moreover, that would be fine if he really died.

They were bandits after all, so they didn't need to pay any pensions or anything like that. They could just dig a hole somewhere and bury them, and it would be over.

However, if the person wants to survive, it will be troublesome.

With so many people watching, you can't really leave your brother alone, right?

If you really do this, how can you bring others with you in the future?

When they are brought back, the injured people need treatment. Will it not cost money to see a doctor and take medicine?
Therefore, as long as they are not really forced to do so, the bandits can actually try not to do anything if they can.

Of course, the most important reason is actually another reason.

There are so many roads in the world, and those caravans may not only take this one.

If people often die around the bandit's stronghold, those businessmen will feel that the risk is too great, and at worst, they will just take a detour instead of going here.

Without the merchants coming and going, the bandit's stronghold will be abandoned soon.

So, any bandit with some brains.

I really rarely fight with the businessmen who come and go. At most, I just scare them.

Even so, this was the first time that Lao Zhu actually said the incisions in the storybook.

Surrounded by more than a dozen people, there was no look of fear on Lao Zhu's face.

This is also of course.

When he was fighting for world hegemony, he was used to seeing thousands of armies.

These dozen or so people are not even worthy of carrying his shoes.

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand and clasped his fists at several people: "I wonder if I am a friend of that line. Can you please reciprocate? We have never heard of friends doing business on this line before."

The bandit leader was confused when he heard this, and his brows almost knitted together: "What kind of thread is it for the wrist? I don't understand what you are talking about?"

"Old man, we are bandits. If you are wise, hand over all the money you have. If I am happy, I might be able to keep you alive."

"If you are shameless..." the bandit leader said, waving the big knife in his hand twice.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, his knife was also the lowest quality.

If the quartermaster in the army dares to equip the army with such a knife.

Zhu Yuanzhang could really destroy their nine tribes.

Of course the bandit leader didn't know that this little old man in front of him, who seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary, was thinking about this kind of thing.

He continued to think about himself: "Then don't blame me for being cruel."

Well, you can tell from his words that this guy is just a rookie who doesn't know anything.

At least not real professional bandits.

After understanding this, Zhu Yuanzhang finally felt relieved.

Such a person, at least, would not be sent to target him.If you specifically want to deal with him, you can't send a layman like this who doesn't know anything.

"Okay!" Zhu Yuanzhang sighed helplessly.

The bandit thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was going to pay.A look of greed suddenly appeared in his eyes.

Just by looking at the clothes of these people, you can tell that their lives are probably not very good either.

The life of a real bandit is not as comfortable as some people imagine.

They all had their heads pinned to their waistbands, and they were always there.

As a result, while the bandits were waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to pay, a group of people suddenly rushed out from the side.

There were not many people, only five people.

The bandit leader's face changed drastically when he saw this: "No! There is an ambush, retreat quickly!"

Okay, this is more laymanlike.

It's just that now it's too late to run away.

The people in front of him were each more ferocious than the last. The bandit leader watched helplessly as his men were easily knocked down by these people with three punches and two kicks.

Just blinking, the only ones still standing here were Zhu Yuanzhang, Queen Ma, and the few people who rushed out.

"Asshole, I'll fight you." The bandit leader gritted his teeth and roared, grabbing hold of his hands with all his strength and throwing himself over the head of a person who was charging towards him.

This time, the bandit leader also tried his best.With this knife, he thought that even a stone could be easily split in half.

As a result, the man didn't even blink and raised his hand directly towards the blade.Just before the bandit leader's machete was about to cut off his finger, he suddenly grabbed the blade.

In an instant, the bandit leader's sword seemed to be frozen, unable to move forward at all.

The bandit leader subconsciously wanted to withdraw his knife.

As a result, no matter how red he suppressed his face, the knife did not move at all.

"With this little ability, you still want to imitate others and go out to rob?"

The sarcastic words made the bandit leader feel that he had been greatly insulted, and he immediately gritted his teeth and retorted: "Asshole, let me get the knife if you can, and let's fight in an upright manner."

He seemed to have completely forgotten that the opponent only needed one hand to catch his full-strength slash.

The strength gap between the two sides is simply obvious.

"Okay, I'll give you this chance." The man didn't care. When the bandit leader drew his knife, he suddenly let go of his hand, and at the same time, he didn't forget to move forward gently.

The bandit leader was trying desperately to pull his knife, but he was caught off guard, grabbed the knife and staggered back more than ten steps, and fell to the ground.

It hurts, and stars are starting to pop out of both eyes.

After a long while, he finally recovered.

Just as he was about to get up, a sharp sword was already placed on his neck.

Feeling the cold edge of the long sword, the bandit leader calmed down in an instant.

He honestly dropped his own and was beaten until he screamed: "Surrender, I surrender."

The man who grabbed the bandit leader's sword before laughed and said provocatively: "Weren't you very fierce just now? Why did you give up so quickly?"

Seeing this man, the bandit leader's eyes seemed to burst out with fire, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Despicable villain."

Just now this guy had clearly promised to fight him openly, but in the end he actually plotted against him.

The man wasn't angry, he just kicked him contemptuously: "Who do you think you are, worthy of fighting me?"

After that, he no longer cared about the bandit leader and went to Xi to report to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Your Majesty..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly changed his words: "Boss Chang, how should we deal with these bandits?"
