Sigh to sigh, scold to scold. He knew that the five-star army in the east line was responding to the 20000 cavalry. They wanted to forcibly open a channel with the situation of double attack.
"Hum! There are hundreds of thousands of Khanate alliance cavalry here. You can open it if you say so." when thinking that the ditch more than ten miles outside the city is enough to stop the attack of the five-star cavalry, King Baolide's face showed confidence.
It is precisely because of this trench which is more than ten miles long that the cavalry of the five-star army can not launch an attack at all, and it has blocked the opponent for so long. Baolide is confident that he can continue to block the main force of the five-star army this time. As long as he can block this wave of attack, I believe that other Khanate will not ignore the 20000 enemy cavalry in the rear.
Baolide has this confidence. He is confident that he can defend the capital city of alimali, but what he doesn't know is that one of his top generals, uliji, is secretly meeting an old friend at this time. At this time, he is engaged in a fierce struggle between health and non health.
When urigi's old friend appeared in his mansion in black, he really startled the general. And surprised, he came forward with a happy face and said happily, "Xiangguo, where have you been in recent years, but you think bad of us all."
Yes, it was arip, the prime minister in Yili.
Nearly four years have passed since Yang Chendong sent someone to rob him. During this period of time, under the supervision of intelligence personnel, he went to the red inlaid city of Yang, Shishi and other provinces and regions. It can be said that he has been walking and never stopped.
These years of walking have greatly expanded his horizons. As Yang Chendong said when he first met him, your so-called governance is just a child. Under your governance, powerful people are still high above the world, and ordinary people still live a life without hunger.
Arip once sniffed at this and thought that Yang Chendong was also a big talker. At least from the history he knows, no nation or country has ever been able to eliminate the privileges of dignitaries and enable all ordinary people to live a rich life, such as no lack of food, many clothes and houses.
In his opinion, no one can do this, but anyone who can make 50% of the people live such a life is a famous King. Let 60% of the people meet this standard, that is a great emperor. It is something that can make more than 70% of the people dare not think about.
But after a real visit for four years, he found that Yang Chendong didn't talk big, but really did what he said. Although the people's prosperity rate has not reached 100%, at least 80% has, and this proportion is still increasing year by year. In other words, as long as the hard-working people, their own people and people willing to make efforts have led a rich life, which he dared not think before. Now someone has realized it and let him see it.
Among them, it has touched him a lot. How he hoped that his country would also strive to make the people in the country live such a life. In this way, it was worth dying right away. But he knew in his heart that it was impossible.
If we don't talk about anything else, let's talk about the power and privilege, and no one can abolish it. If anyone does, it will be overthrown by those dignitaries, even if they join hands with the king.
That is, a bold idea jumped into my mind. That is, if he can't do it, he might as well give it to someone who can do it, such as Yang Chendong, the leader of the Yang family.
With this idea, arip soon shook his head to keep it at the bottom of his mind. Isn't this tantamount to betraying the country? Isn't it equivalent to giving your country's hands to others? This is a traitor.
He wanted to press down this sudden idea, but since it appeared, arip found that it was not what he wanted to press down. In particular, when he visited some other provinces and regions under the Yang system, he saw many people who had moved here from other places and lived and talked with them. When he asked each other, he remembered where he was from, whether he wanted to return to his hometown or rebuild his country, the answer was so unified.
"Of course I want to go back home. After all, it's my hometown. But if I have to live a life without food and clothes, I'd rather stay here. My family and I live well here. I don't have to worry about whether there will be a last meal, whether my property will be swallowed by dignitaries, let alone my own safety. Is there anything wrong The enemy will come suddenly. This is what I want to live. As for the past, forget it. It's just a kind of memory. By the way, it's a painful memory. "
When such an answer did not come from one person, but asked ten people, at least nine and a half answered like this, arip knew that the eyes of the people were bright, and Yang Chendong was right.
If not, why should the people speak for him?
Why does it win the support of the people?
Why can people achieve real satisfaction and even forget their hometown and country?
Slowly from never understanding to understanding, arip began to slowly believe in his mind. Yang Chendong is correct. This method can also be applied to his country. Although Baolide will lose his kingship, it is worth it compared with so many ordinary people who can live a better life.
At the beginning, his wish was to let the people live a better life? To this end, he also vowed to sacrifice everything, including himself. Even if he had such a chance, what would he have to wait for?
Four years later, arip, who finally figured it out, asked someone to send a telegram to Yang Chendong, expounded his views and ideas, and was willing to give everything for it. He wanted to do something to promote it.
Of course, Yang Chendong is very happy that arip can figure this out, which is one of the important reasons why he wanted to capture arip at the beginning. At that moment, he arranged personnel to escort arip to the front line of the east line for the purpose of returning.
Bai Shuang, the commander of the different army who got the order, received the order, which led to arip's appearance in front of uliji.
When entering the city, although arip was in a carriage, he saw the current situation of people's life in the city through the window. Compared with four years ago, the people here are even more bitter. They are yellow and skinny one by one. Some can even be blown down by a gust of wind. Their eyes are empty and godless. They are like walking corpses alive, without pursuit, ideals, or even any expectations for tomorrow.
Compared with the people under the Yang system, they are energetic, broad and strong, completely like people from two worlds.
This also strengthened arip's idea. He also hoped that the people here could enjoy the same treatment as the people in other provinces of the Yang family. By the way, in Yang Chendong's words, it is called liberation!
Is to be liberated, must be liberated!
Under this firm thought, arip met ulji and the other party's enthusiasm.
Speaking of today, ulji is naturally recognized by King Baolide, but it depends more on arip's recommendation and promotion. In a sense, he is the other party's bole.
It is precisely for this reason that arip chooses the first person to see is ulji. He firmly believes that even if the other party does not agree with his own point of view, he will never betray himself.
Seeing the excited look on uliji's face, arip stretched out his hand and patted the other party on the shoulder. "General uliji, is there any safe place? I want to talk to you alone."
"Hmm? Oh, yes, yes, please come with me." Ulrich's look became more serious for a moment, and he had a feeling in his heart.
They soon appeared in the secret room of the house. No one can get close to it unless they get permission. Otherwise, ulji's own soldiers will kill on the grounds that their motives are not pure and threaten the general's safety.
In the quiet secret room, they looked at each other and sat down. After uliji poured out tea, arip slowly opened his mouth and told him about what he had experienced in the four years since he disappeared.
Wu Liji has been listening carefully. He is also very curious about the five-star army. He also wants to see what kind of force can cultivate such a powerful cavalry team. Are the Han people really powerful and unmatched, so powerful that they have changed their foreign strategy?
All this has found the answer from arip's words. It is no wonder that the relationship between the king of Wunan of Daming and Daming is not subordinate at all, but belongs to the existence of an emerging force.
In a sense, Yang Chendong is like a founding monarch and belongs to an emerging force. They are constantly developing and expanding on the basis of the surrounding areas of the Ming Dynasty. There are no so-called dignitaries and constraints in the forces of the Yang family. Once they want to do something, they can devote themselves to it, And don't need to think so much.
This alone is unmatched by other old forces. Just the existence of a powerful force, I don't know how much it has dragged down. Some kings of knowledge want to rise but can't. For a simple example, power is not concentrated, wealth is not concentrated, most of the land is controlled by a few dignitaries, and people's life is miserable. Under such an environment, it is very difficult for you to have all kinds of good ideas and want to become a reality.
