Chinese people have always had regional discrimination. To put it bluntly, local people despise outsiders. Even poor locals despise rich foreigners. This sense of superiority is given to them by their native hometown.
Therefore, whenever we defend our families and homes, we have considerable appeal. When facing the invasion of foreign enemies, the Imperial Army collapses, and many squires can summon many people to work together and resist the enemy.
In order to protect their homes and relatives, they do not want compensation and are not afraid to die.
Moreover, there are many poor people and refugees these days. As long as you give them a full meal, you can pull people into the army. That's what Fang Youpeng thought, so he delayed to buckle the silver in his hand.
He buckled the silver in his hand and changed hands to lend it to usury to earn higher interest. He called it "borrowing chicken to lay eggs".
But now he is stupid. With so much silver, no one is willing to be a soldier. No one is willing to be a soldier for him. This is silver. White silver. It has been said since ancient times: black eyes can't see white silver, but these people now feel that silver is hot and dare not move.
If other people's armies surround Chengdu, the armies of other places may arouse the common hatred of the local people. The people will unite and unite with each other to fight against foreign enemies and protect their families from poisoning.
The residents of the city know that the army surrounding the city is mainly the army of shopkeeper Dai. They are all local children of Sichuan. Many people began to feel excited and have other ideas.
Everyone knows Dai Qianyuan. Most people can be right. Since he is an acquaintance, can he kill? Do you want this face?
It's inevitable that the two armies will fight each other and fight to the death, but we are willing to be your little brother and your shunmin. Do you dare to cut our head with a knife with a thousand yuan? Do you want to be a Sichuan person? Do you want to have a foothold in this area of your hometown?
The squires of this era generally pay great attention to their reputation. Their lives are temporary and their reputation is from generation to generation. Especially in their hometown, they generally establish a high reputation. When they have money, they will build bridges and pave roads and do some good deeds. This is to establish their good reputation in their hometown. Because of this, they can have high prestige and shout at the critical time, Responders from the cloud.
Moreover, when Dai Qianyuan surrounded Chengdu, they thought of this festival, so they ordered countless archers to shoot a large number of surrender letters into the city. The archers of the Chinese Army shot arrows into the city along the four walls.
The content of these letters is nothing more than to persuade everyone to lay down their arms and surrender, but not to die, fight in a desperate corner and kill.
Because of this, the resistance of the army and the people in the city has been successfully disintegrated. Maybe some officials are brave and want to fight with the Chinese army and earn some reputation. However, for these ordinary people, they don't want to do it for a long time. They just want peace in the world and make money early.
The people of this era, who are not hand-in-hand and mouth-to-mouth, and their families are starving, have delayed their work in the war around the city, and their families can only drink thin, so their only hope is to end the war as soon as possible.
Fang Youpeng was really stupid. Only then did he understand that what is called betrayal and separation. What makes him feel even more angry is not to call more servants and officers and soldiers to help. Even many officials who announced the Government Secretary yamen have left and no longer serve as officials.
The first hand was originally reserved by Fang Youpeng. As a result, it was robbed by his men. It became that he was not an official.
But Fang Youpeng, an official, is still here. The problem is that he doesn't know how to give orders.
What this means is that he doesn't know how to give orders. Usually, he is a chief envoy who gives orders and commands the eight offices and 120 counties of Sichuan chief envoy. However, when all his men run away, he doesn't know how to convey the orders. After he gives orders, he can't write documents and then print them, Then trot all the way to other departments?
When he found that the whole Chief Secretary yamen was left out in the cold, he was terrified and found that great disaster was coming.
At this time, there were only a dozen servants who followed him from his hometown to become an official. Everyone was very helpless and didn't know what to do?
In desperation, Fang Youpeng led his men and horses to the city wall. First, he took a look at the wind. As a result, when he climbed the city gate and saw the prosperous military capacity and boundless camps of the Chinese army under the city, he was afraid. The Chinese army under the city formed one array after another in groups and was preparing to attack the city.
Although they didn't prepare any large siege weapons, he was afraid just to open such an array.
Looking around him, there were no soldiers available. There were very few soldiers on the wall. They looked sparse. They couldn't see a soldier even in the five mouths. Everyone was afraid and trembling with weapons.
Now the only thing that can give them the last protection and psychological barrier is the tall Chengdu city wall.
Seeing so many enemies and such a prosperous military appearance, he felt powerless. At this moment, Fang Youpeng felt that things could not be done. Under the agitation of his heart, he wanted to climb up the dole mouth of the wall and jump down. Once he died, he would avoid these troubles, but he was held by the soldiers around him and was not allowed to die.
Fang Youpeng was pulled back by many soldiers, sat on the wall and cried loudly. What should we do.
It's good that the Chief Secretary didn't cry. When he cried, all the people around him were silly. This is the Sichuan envoy of Daming, who announced that the Chief Secretary Zuo, a second-class senior official, was responsible for managing the Chengdu government and the whole Sichuan frontier officials for Daming.
In Chengdu Prefecture alone, there are three prefectures and seventeen counties, including Chengdu County, Huayang County, Shuangliu County, Pixian County, Wenjiang County, Xinfan County, Xindu County, Peng County, Chongning County, Guan County, Jintang County, Renshou County, Chongqing state, Hanzhou, Jianzhou, Jingyan County, Zixian County, Neijiang County, an County and Mengyang county. Among them, Chengdu county and Huayang county are Fuguo County of Chengdu Prefecture.
There are eight prefectures in Sichuan; Six Zhili Prefecture Cities; Five military and civilian cities; A Xuanfu city; There are 15 prefectures and 120 counties.
In so many places, so many local officials and tens of millions of soldiers and civilians in so many places, he is the only political envoy who follows his orders. Since Zhang Youwei led his troops out of Sichuan, he has higher status and more power. Even the king of Shu has been blackmailed by him.
Don't mention that he went to blackmail the king of Shu without being teased by others and talked about with relish. Many people think that he is the right chief envoy, so he has such means to squeeze the king of Shu's money. He is a man with a way.
Everyone also hopes that he can shout at the critical moment and lead the people in the city to resist foreign enemies.
At least as he said, "all the people are united and stand by for help.
We should not only stand firm and wait for help, but at least strengthen urban defense, mobilize elite troops, strengthen defense, and then make various targeted arrangements? He was so scared to cry when he saw so many enemies under the city?
Of course, Fang Youpeng thinks that he is crying, not because he is timid and afraid, but for the imperial court, that is, for the Ming Dynasty. The enemy is so powerful, how can the imperial court defeat him? I have studied the books of sages for ten years and received the emperor's favor, but I don't think I can repay the emperor's favor. What should I do?
In the eyes of these ordinary soldiers and ordinary people, he is usually high above the top. There are five or six people. He knows that the chief envoy who bullies the people is frightened and cried by the powerful military power of the enemy.
This makes them feel very shameless and humiliated. Many people still have some morale. If an enemy dares to attack us, we will respond with swords and bows and arrows to let the enemy know that we Chengdu people in Sichuan are not easy to bully. If you dare to come, we dare to fight and ask you to come back.
Of course, this is not something that a small squire or soldier can do, but under the leadership of these great people who have read the books of sages and know astronomy and geography.
As a result, when the enemy came to the city and there were difficulties in the city, and everyone looked forward to the stars and the moon and the Savior, Fang Youpeng appeared, but he appeared in this bear way, which also made many people feel very ashamed.
Even their boss was frightened and cried by the enemy's powerful military power. Can they be opponents of others? Many people felt cold when they saw this section. Officials were scared and cried. Nothing can be done.
Fang Youpeng's heart was full of sadness and anger, so he burst into tears. This is a common gesture of these writers, but he didn't know that his true feelings revealed at this time, which brought such a great shock to the soldiers.
Not to mention ordinary soldiers, even the personal soldiers and servants who have been following him to get promoted and become rich have a cold heart. At this time, the chief envoy should not be light and light, stand on the wall, talk and laugh, command and layout skillfully, and wait for the enemy to fight. Usually, they don't boast. They are planning strategies to win thousands of miles away In, do you know the ox man of a thousand years? If the enemy doesn't come, they will be leveled quietly. This is called playing between the fingers and forcibly killing the enemy.
But when the enemy really arrived, he came under the city and threatened to seize the city. What was he like?
