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

Chapter 60: Li Shanchang Comes to Vote!
"What's wrong?" Zhu Yuanzhang was a little puzzled.

Zhu Han knew that his elder brother hadn't realized the importance of Li Shanchang yet.

"Brother, it's better to go out and greet him in person!" Zhu Han said.

Hearing what Zhu Han said, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately paid attention to it.

He understood that the Li Shanchang that Zhu Han was talking about must be very talented, otherwise he would not have let him go out to greet him in person.

"Okay, then let's go in person!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said loudly.

Soon, he tidied up his appearance and strode out.

Outside the gate, a middle-aged scholar in a blue round-neck robe was pacing calmly.

He is Li Shanchang, a well-known scholar in Dingyuan.

With the chaos of the Red Scarf Army, there are already signs of vying for the throne in the world. Li Shanchang also felt that the Mongols' spirits were probably doomed, so he wanted to make contributions.

It happened that the Red Scarf Army led by Zhu Yuanzhang came to attack Dingyuan. In just a few days, they conquered Lvpaizhai and Hengjianshan Tuanlian one after another, and broke through Dingyuan City and captured Timur alive. Not only that, this man named Zhu Yuanzhang The generals of the Red Scarf Army are still restraining the troops, not stealing, robbing, prostitution, or disturbing the people. He can be called the king's teacher.

This red scarf thief general from Haozhou immediately aroused Li Shanchang's great interest.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Shanchang decided to pay a visit to Marshal Zhu Yuanzhang of the Red Turban Army.

If Zhu Yuanzhang is really a hero, then he plans to come out to assist.

But if Zhu Yuanzhang is just a thieves in disguise, then Li Shanchang will continue to stay behind closed doors, and will never mess around in the muddy water.

Just as Li Shanchang observed the soldiers entering and leaving the Marshal's Mansion, he admired their military appearance.

suddenly.

There was a burst of hearty laughter from inside the gate.

"Xiao He in this world, where is Mr. Li?"

Immediately afterwards, a tall and imposing general of the Red Scarf Army came out from the gate. Behind him were two people. .

The soldier of the Red Turban Army pointed to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Marshal, this is Mr. Li!"

Seeing this, Li Shanchang was overjoyed at first, but his expression remained unchanged, and he saluted respectfully.

"My humble Li Shanchang, come to bother Marshal Zhu!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Li Shanchang, he felt that he was extraordinary, not the sour and corrupt scholars he had met before.

"We have heard for a long time that Mr. Li is a famous person in Dingyuan, comparable to the ancient Xiao He and Zhuge Liang. When I saw him today, he really has extraordinary bearing!" Zhu Yuanzhang said loudly.

On the road just now, Zhu Han sternly praised Li Shanchang's reputation, directly comparing it with Xiao He and Zhuge Liang, Zhu Yuanzhang was naturally full of expectations.

"I can't be praised by the marshal, Li is just an ordinary man!" Li Shanchang laughed.

For the general of the Red Scarf Army in front of him, Li Shanchang's initial impression was that he gave a big high score.

After all, people who can recognize talents with discerning eyes will never be too bad.

All of a sudden, the host and guest get along well.

Zhu Yuanzhang personally invited Li Shanchang into the Marshal's Mansion.

When they entered the hall and took the seat, Zhu Han was the only one to accompany him.

Li Shanchang was full of curiosity about this young man, so Zhu Yuanzhang naturally introduced him.

"Zhu Han, our real brother!"

Zhu Yuanzhang then introduced Zhu Han's achievements again, which immediately shocked Li Shanchang.

"The first battle in Haozhou, and the second battle in Dingyuan, the first victory was actually by the little general?" Li Shanchang looked surprised.

He originally thought that Zhu Han was just a boy, but he didn't expect to be a hero boy.

"It's not all due to me, it's all due to the hard work of the soldiers! There will be more battles in the future, and we will need a real talent with both civil and military skills like Mr." Zhu Han said.

He will definitely help his elder brother win over Li Shanchang.

In history, Li Shanchang was an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs, and he was a top-notch talent in temple calculations. His only weakness was his greed for power and fame in his later years.

This kind of weakness is usually praised by others.

Sure enough, after Zhu Han's praise, Li Shanchang immediately felt that Zhu Yuanzhang was a person who could be assisted, not only because Zhu Yuanzhang was extraordinary in martial arts, but also because of Zhu Han, his own brother, and his own words, it must be a perfect combination.

really.

In the ensuing conversation, although Zhu Yuanzhang didn't read much, he had a lot of knowledge, and he had compassion for the common people in his heart, which made Li Shanchang admire him.

Zhu Han also introduced the topic from time to time, which made the old brother Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Shanchang chat very speculatively.

Before I knew it, it was time to light the lamp.

"Come here, serve the food, and prepare a jar of wine, we want to have a good time with the husband!" Zhu Yuanzhang ordered happily.

The military law in the rebel army prohibits alcohol, not only because drinking is a mistake, but also because Zhu Han included spirits in military supplies and weapons.

However, the arrival of Li Shanchang today made Zhu Yuanzhang an exception for the first time.

Li Shanchang also admires the open-minded Zhu Yuanzhang very much.

With good wine to add to the fun, the two of them talked more and more happily, but Zhu Han could only smell the good wine and mutter.

"I'm still underage, so I definitely can't drink alcohol!"

After drinking for three rounds, Zhu Yuanzhang was already slightly drunk.

He asked Li Shanchang.

"We heard that Mr. is a great talent, you can know 500 years before and after, so we want to ask, now that the world is in chaos and the people are struggling to live, when will it be the end!"

Li Shanchang heard the words, hiccupped and said.

"When the world is in chaos, chaos can lead to great order. When a great hero is born, it will be the end of the troubled times."

Chaos and chaos, Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't like this statement.

My parents, elder brother, second brother and other relatives all died in the messy world.

"Sir, where is the great hero?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

Li Shanchang pointed at Zhu Yuanzhang and said loudly.

"A hero in troubled times is the Marshal!"

Hearing Li Shanchang's words, Zhu Yuanzhang was not complacent, but said very seriously.

"Sir, to be honest, we were forced to rebel when we rebelled. If we want to say what kind of heroes we are, we are ashamed of ourselves!"

Li Shanchang said with a smile: "Since ancient times, which hero has been forced to revolt, and Han Gaozu has no choice but to fall into the grass on Mangdang Mountain, but it is not far from Haozhou!"

"What do you think, sir, what should we do to be considered a hero?"

Zhu Yuanzhang has traveled all over the world since he was a child, but he has never heard of the story of Han Gaozu Liu Bang beheading the white snake.

Li Shanchang immediately suggested to Zhu Yuanzhang that if he wanted to be a hero, he could directly learn from Han Gaozu Liu Bang.

First of all, if you don't kill people indiscriminately, you can be a subordinate of the people.

And if the people are attached, they will be able to obtain sufficient food, grass and soldiers.
