Bastard’s Resurgence

Chapter 674: Make a decision!

The current situation of the Dakang Dynasty is torn apart, and the Dakang New Capital City, which occupies half of the country, has actually been determined to be in Jinling. With the big river as the boundary, the north of the Yangtze River is already in a mess, and the various forces are entangled, although the prince Long Zhaohuan nominally represents the prince. In fact, Long Zhaohuan is not only unable to put down the rebellion, but he is always worried that he will be made dumplings by the forces of Longyou, Shandong and Liaodong.

Jiangnan is not to sit back and relax. Although Jiangnan has the boundaries of the big river, Jiangnan has no soldiers. Under such a situation, the formation of the Nanfu Army is imminent.

The game of the Nanfu Army is naturally very fierce. Who will be the chief governor of the Nanfu Army? The cabinet center and the six ministers have been discussing the issue of this candidate for a month and have not yet been able to formulate it.

This candidate is difficult, because first of all, this person must have enough prestige and ability after all, otherwise it is not enough to lead a Jiangnan army who guards the court.

In addition, the two most important points are that this person must first agree with his majesty. Emperor Xin De nodded his head to determine the seat, but Emperor Guang Xin De agreed not yet, because now the treasury is empty, and the Southern court has hurriedly stood up. There is simply no ability to build an army quickly, so to build the Nanfu Army needs to rely on the powerful Jiangnan clan. Therefore, the candidates for the chief governor of the Nanfu Army must be recognized by the Jiangnan power lords.

Now Jiangnan Lu family is the core, so the generals recognized by the Lu family can serve as the chief governor.

Originally, the best candidate for the general governor of the Nanfu Army was Lu Zheng, because Lu Zheng not only had the right prestige, but more importantly, Lu Zheng was good at leading the army and fighting wars. With his methods, he would be able to build the Nanfu Army and let Nan The government army is sufficient to defend half of the southern part of the country.

However, Emperor Xinde made it clear that Lu Zheng will continue to serve as the official secretary, and it is impossible for Lu Zheng to concurrently serve as the chief official of the Nanfu Army as the official secretary. Therefore, the candidate for the chief governor is still uncertain at the moment.

Jiangnan Lufu, Gu Tiansheng and Chen Zhiqian made a visit together today. Since the Lu family returned to Jiangnan, the two of them have become regular visitors of the Lu family. They both have a good relationship with Lu Shan on matters large and small. In the situation of Jiangnan power sects to re-emerge, they have to rely on the Lu family, if not, if they dare to produce moths in private, the Lu family can easily let them fly into an ashes and annihilate them.

Therefore, the so-called four families in the south of the Yangtze River should not be evenly matched. Uh, evenly matched, there must be someone to take the lead. As it is now, the Lu family dominates the other two, Jiangnanquan. Only by the valve can we work together and unite with each other.

Chen Zhiqian and Gu Tiansheng are here today, naturally because of Lu Zheng's return. Now everyone knows that the real master of the Lu family is actually the young Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng keeps his promises, and even Lu Shanzhang will never violate it. The meaning of Lu Zheng.

Now, the court is blowing, and the court cabinet and the six departments need to be fully shuffled. In this case, many powerhouses are eyeing this. At the moment, Lu Zheng took the lead in the position of Shangshu of the official department, and the imperial court's will had already come down. With this, the Lu family immediately became the envy of all parties.

Although there are countless people in the Shangzhezi and Lu Zheng's use of troops in Lianghe is not cautious and serious mistakes, but Lu Zheng is still a holy favorite! The Lu family is still the number one power in Jiangnan, and this cannot be changed.

"Masters, seniors, Lu Zheng is here to be courteous to everyone!" Lu Zheng came forward and bowed to Gu Tiansheng and others.

"Master Lu, please don't be too polite. The so-called ambitious are not young. This time we came here to visit the adults, hoping to be enlightened by the adults!" Gu Tiansheng said, although he is very old, he is a weak young man named Lu Zheng. In front of him, he didn't dare to have the slightest support.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Lu Zheng’s status in Dakang is now unmatched except for a few prime ministers. Compared with Gu Tiansheng, Chen Zhiqian has only served as a minister of six departments at the highest level, but from the official rank. In other words, everyone is not on the same level.

Besides, how high the Gu family and the Chen family can climb and how far they can go must depend on Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng can also play a key role in the future development of the two big families. So at this time, apart from desperately cooperating with Lu Zheng, they are no longer alone. There is no other choice.

Everyone sat down as the guest and the host, and Lu Zheng said: "This time the establishment of the Nanfu Army in Jiangnan is imminent! I have asked Liu Song to temporarily prepare 20,000 horses, and the 20,000 horses are now in Jiangning!

Twenty thousand horses are only enough for the guards of a few of us. If we really want to build the Nanfu Army, it must be able to protect half of the country for the country. In terms of scale, it cannot be small! Two seniors, I will give you the bottom, the size of our first batch of Nanfu Army, at least one hundred thousand horses! "

Gu Tiansheng and Chen Zhiqian looked at each other, and both could see surprises in each other’s eyes. Lu Zheng revealed his ambition in one sentence. A hundred thousand horses is not a small number. Jiangnan has never had such a large army. Lu Zheng obviously had a great picture.

Lu Zheng paused, and then said: "Today's Dakang is already in troubled times, the world is full of smoke, and there will be wars soon. Since wars are inevitable, we must not be stingy in preparing for war.

The 100,000 horses I just mentioned is only the first stage. After our 100,000 horses have formed combat strength, we will continue to form the Nanfu Army in the future, and strive to make the Nanfu Army support the entire Jiangnan! "

Gu Tiansheng said: "Okay, this is great! I am very in favor of it. Jiangnan cannot be without an army, otherwise we can't stand this half of the country!"

Chen Zhiqian said: "Yes, Jiangnan is rich. We have never been short of silver, grain and rice in these years, but we have not eaten much or used much. We have all used it to transport north to the court to raise soldiers!

Right now, we are raising soldiers in Jiangnan, raising our own soldiers! It's justified! "

Lu Zheng said: "Two seniors, since both agree with this point, I hope that the two people in their respective homes can also participate in this matter. At the moment, our Lu family has raised 20,000 soldiers, and the Chen family and Gu family can also raise 20,000. Our three families have a total of 60,000 soldiers. With these 60,000 soldiers and horses, when we establish the Nanfu Army, we will have a lot of experience and confidence. Two seniors, don't you think?"

When Lu Zheng said this, the expressions of Gu Tiansheng and Chen Zhiqian changed again? Lu Zheng, is this to let the families raise private soldiers? However, they immediately understood what Lu Zheng meant. The court is now looking for a candidate for the chief governor of the Nanfu Army, but it is difficult to finalize the candidate for various reasons.

Lu Zheng now suddenly asked each family to raise private soldiers. This was actually a feedback to the court that the Nanfu Army was never an army of the court, and the Jiangnan power lords themselves could raise troops. If the court was unwilling to engage in the Nanfu army , That simply each family can raise their own soldiers and protect their families, and the three families can also raise a strong team.

"Master Lu's plan is very good, I agree, our Gu family can raise 20,000 soldiers!"

Chen Zhiqian nodded and said: "Okay, I also agree, we can also recruit troops and expand our strength!"

Lu Zheng smiled and said: "Well, the affairs of the Nanfu Army have come to an end. Next, let's talk about the affairs of the court. Recently, there has been news from the court that your majesty hopes that the veterans will rise again and serve the country again. I very much agree with this point!

The two seniors must also be prepared to be able to enter the dynasty as officials, and we Jiangnan people must fight for it, and we must not fall behind! "

Gu Tiansheng said: "Okay, Lord Lu's remarks gave us peace of mind! Now the country is in a crisis. It is a major event that we can serve the country. Our family in Jiangnan does not serve the country. Can we still count on the family in the north? ?"

Lu Zheng nodded lightly and said: "It is best for the two seniors to declare righteousness in this way. This matter seems to have nothing to do with the formation of the Nanfu Army at first glance. In fact, it is deeply related. In this situation, your Majesty needs someone who is vigorous and powerful. Family. Therefore, the Chen family and Gu family are particularly critical in the formation of 20,000 troops. If they are procrastinated, I am afraid that your Majesty will not have a good impression!"

Lu Zheng said that he must be called Emperor Xinde, in fact, there is also the meaning of the Lu family behind this. For the Lu family to control the situation, it not only needs to play against all forces in the south of the Yangtze River, but also against the world. Even the Lu Family needs to play with Emperor Xin De, so whether Lu Zheng's will can be implemented quickly, this is his important bargaining chip.

Lu Zheng is now going to quickly pull up an army. Liu Song has already organized 20,000 people. Lu Zheng asked the Gu family and Chen family to organize another 20,000 people. This time, the Nanfu Army has 60,000.

More importantly, based on this, Lu Zheng tied Chen and Gu to death. In the future, they must be consistent with Lu Zheng in the court. Otherwise, Lu Zheng can easily mutilate a family with these tens of thousands of Nanfu army. It's too much for them.

In addition, Lu Zheng needs to use this method to tell Xinde that the Nanfu Army Jiangnan Power will not retreat. If Xinde fails to finalize a suitable candidate for the governor of the capital, Lu Zheng will build the Nanfu Army into the Jiangnan Power. By that time, I am afraid that the court will find it harder to control this group of private soldiers!

The meeting between Lu Zheng and Chen and Gu quickly determined the overall situation of Jiangnan. After Chen and Gu returned, wherever they dared to neglect, they immediately used all family resources to quickly organize recruitment within the Jiangnan area. The two private soldiers Formed at an astonishing speed.

This is not a joke, they all know that building a private soldier quickly and efficiently is related to the future of their family. As soon as the imperial court is employing personnel, how to arrange the positions of Chen Zhiqian and Gu Tiansheng? They need the support of the Lu family. How well they go out this step directly affects the future of the family!

After Lu Zheng sent the two away, he quickly called the boy over and said, "How is the situation in Jiangbei these days? Is there any new news?"

The boy said: "On the other side of the capital, Long Zhaohuan is recruiting troops and horses! The disasters in Henan and Hebei have been brought under control in the Lianghe area. The entire army of the Yuzhou army has built embankments, and the embankment of the river has been stabilized again!"

"On the side of Shandong, King Qi has led his army back to Shandong. The situation in Shandong is controlled by King Qi. It is said that he is full of ambition and self-confidence. Not only is there not a few soldiers under his hand, but there are more than 10,000 more soldiers. Look at him. The posture is fierce, and it seems to be competing in the Central Plains!"

Lu Zheng's brows wrinkled slowly, and for a long time he shook his head slightly and said, "I have really underestimated King Qi for so many years. This King Qi has a deep and powerful way. Among the three sons of your Majesty, this person has the most city mansion. It's rare!"

The boy said: "What should we do now? Are we trying to find a way to contain him?"

Lu Zheng slowly closed his eyes, lay down on his back, and said, "The Nanfu Army cannot afford to delay, but why is your Majesty not rushing about this? I feel quite disturbed after thinking about it, and I think it must be. There is a problem! Thinking about it now, maybe your Majesty King Qi still quite trusts, and even their father and son still have a tacit understanding..."

"Ah..." The boy's face changed drastically, his eyes widened and said: "This...this..."

The hairs on the whole body of the boy are standing up. If this idea of ​​Lu Zheng is true, it would be terrible! Is there a tacit understanding between King Qi and Emperor Xinde? Then what kind of tacit understanding is there, why did King Qi put his soldiers in Shandong if there is a tacit understanding? Where does he go next?

Lu Zheng was lying on the chair, and he was indeed a little scared by the tricks of Emperor Xinde. This majesty, the city is extremely deep, and no one knows what he thinks in his heart! He treats the people of the world as chess pieces, and he hides behind him to control the situation. I have to say that such people are actually very scary!

Lu Zheng is now more and more eager to build an army by himself. Only in this way can he protect himself. If not, if one day the royal family really wants to destroy the Lu family and Lu Zheng, they gently raise their hands, and Lu Zheng will not have it. Resistance.

"Go, go to the execution ground, Lu Changhe is going to die today!" Lu Zheng said.

Outside the Miyagi Meridian Gate, today there is a huge crowd, and the imperial convict Lu Changhe of the imperial court's major rebellion has been pushed to the guillotine. This infamous, no one in the whole Jiangnan knows, and no one knows of the intelligence chief has finally reached the last moment of his life!

Look at what he looks like now, where is the demeanor of the head of the Xuanjing Si? He has white hair, bowed his head, the expression on his face is sluggish, and his eyes are muddy and godless. He is a dying old man!

Lu Zheng looked at this person from a distance, and sighed secretly in his heart. He knew best in his heart whether this person was Lu Changhe or not. Even now, Lu Zheng still has the ability to save him. Because with Emperor Xin De, he still hopes that such a scene can happen!

But Lu Zheng had made up his mind long ago, and Lu Changhe couldn't stay!

"Haha!" Lu Changhe suddenly opened his eyes and laughed. At this time, the inspector had already decided to make a decision, and Ling Jian had been thrown out.

"Do you think that when I die, you can be at peace? You can't be at peace. My today is your tomorrow! I sold Xinde my life for a lifetime, and this is my destination.

The more proud and arrogant you are now, the more miserable your future is, haha, have you all heard it? Lu Zheng, have you heard? I'll take a step on Huangquan Road and wait for you on the road, haha..." Lu Changhe laughed, seeing how crazy he looks like...
