Chapter 385: The change of people's hearts is accumulated over time
A person's change has never been achieved overnight, it is not that it is like this today. After a few days, he suddenly changed his face. If such a thing really happens, it can only be said that this person is what he is now. In the past, it was just a good disguise and it was not noticed.
Just like the more than 10,000 Shen Ce Army led by Xue Ping, they were all born in Heluo Guanzhong and were under the authority of the emperor for a long time. Naturally, they admired the emperor, feared and loyal. After all, there was under the feet of the emperor, and many things that the people from other places could not enjoy, which made them always grateful to the court that was close to them. Perhaps they all believed that the lives they lived were much better than those from other places.
This is the pride under the imperial city.
They hate and hate all the people or forces who are unfaithful to the emperor and the court from the bottom of their hearts, and wish that they all died.
Just like the ten thousand Shen Ce Army, when they first walked out of the Heluo in Guanzhong, the thoughts of these people were the same as those mentioned above. Even when they were in a vigilant manner towards Wuwei Jiezhen, which was loyal to the court, they also had a high psychological advantage.
But when they really come out, see the outside world, and understand different lives, they will find that this world is not what they imagined.
Especially those ordinary soldiers, their worldview was greatly impacted in Wuwei.
It turns out that the people here are much richer than them.
It turns out that the officials here are much more fair, just and honest than them.
It turns out that as a soldier, they can be respected like this.
Every day in Wuwei, their original pride is washed down layer by layer.
The people of Wuwei are subtly destroying the original belief of this army from the depths of their hearts little by little.
Or, the senior and middle-level officers still maintain their original intentions, but the imbalance in the hearts of ordinary soldiers is getting worse day by day. Speaking of which, we are the emperor's personal army, but look at our own days, think about Jingzi, the family members who are still in Heluo, Guanzhong, and then look at the days of these local people?
People are afraid of comparing with others.
This comparison makes the gap come out.
If you are a person from two completely different classes, this feeling of inequality, or after a wave of cursing, you will calm down and accept your fate, and you will blame yourself for your mistaken birth. But if everyone is in the same class and life has such a big contrast, how can people swallow this breath?
I was better than you!
What you got, why didn't I get it?
I work hard, diligent, and loyal. I give everything I have, but I don’t get the corresponding one. So what’s the problem? Naturally, there is something wrong with it.
Li Ze's super generous reward for the soldiers of the Shence Army who were killed or disabled in Matou Village became the last straw that broke the camel's back. It was natural to serve as a soldier to eat food and work hard as a soldier, but it depends on whether it was expensive or cheap to sell! Now it seems that the price of working for Wuwei Jie Town is much more expensive.
This undercurrent may not have been felt by Xue Ping, but Li Ze has already gained the most basic understanding through all channels, so he did not take Xue Ping's vigilance seriously.
Come on, come on! Get all your best soldiers for me.
I am disrespectful and accept it with a smile.
However, it is easy to come. When you want to take it back, you are afraid that you can no longer control this army.
It is easy to go to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality!
I enjoyed the priority care of the soldiers in Wuweijie Town, and then let them return to the ranks of the low-ranking soldiers in the past, I am afraid it is not as simple as scolding.
"Jing Shuai is so kind to Pinglu!" Xue Ping was a little angry. "I repeatedly provoked Jie Shuai and provoked the court, but I just interrupted my hand and did not teach him a lesson?"
Li Ze also looked angry and unwilling: "There is no way. Now our main force is on the line of Lu Long. It is easy to interrupt his stretched hand, but if you want to teach him how to be a human being, you will have the will but not enough strength! Besides, there is someone standing behind Hou Xiyi. I am also worried that once the war with Pinglu is easily initiated, it will lead to rebound from other towns in the mainland. At that time, I am afraid that Wuwei will be difficult to resist and the court will be embarrassed and difficult to be a human being."
Xue Ping said in a hatred: "Is it Xuan Wu?"
"Isn't it just Xuanwu? There are also towns such as Wei Bo!" Li Ze sighed: "I destroyed Henghai. Didn't Wei Bo write to the court to write a letter to the court, saying that he was arrogant and domineering and was innocent and punish Zhu Shou? If the court had not taken it down at that time and determined that Zhu Shou was a traitor, I was afraid that Wei Bo would join forces with Pinglu and other places to raise an army to punish us!"
What Li Ze said is the truth. Although Zhu Shou was provoking first, Li Ze burned Dezhou regardless of scattering. After half a year, he defeated Wei Bo again and even killed Zhu Shou's clan. At that time, it did cause controversy in the court.
"Tian Chengsi is afraid!" Xue Ping said.
"He is not afraid!" Li Ze smiled and said, "He originally wanted to get a loophole to take advantage of it, but we acted quickly. He didn't expect that Henghai would be defeated so quickly. By the time he was ready, we had already stabilized our position. With the court's endorsement, he had no excuses. This person is extraordinary! Brother Xue, you also have to write to the court. You must be careful about places like Wei Bo and Xuanwu!"
"Of course." Xue Ping nodded: "Where is the other end of Hedong? You oppose Han Qi as the governor of Hedong, and there are many complaints there!"
Li Ze sneered: "When Gao Shuai was alive, what a hero in Hedong, what kind of virtue did Han Qi do? He also wanted to take the position of Hedong Jiedu? When we fought against Lu Long, even Zhang Jia's thousands of remaining soldiers knew how to rescue me? He had tens of thousands of soldiers, but he was not caring about it. He wanted to become Hedong Jiedu Town, unless I, the Grand Governor of Qianniu Guard, quit."
"Actually, what is the difference between him and the Hedong Jiedu now?" Xue Ping sighed: "The court's meaning is that I still want me to persuade the Jiemaster to be loyal to peace. Although Han Qi now has self-respecting troops, he is still loyal to the court."
"Impossible!" Li Ze said sternly: "I am still in charge of the Northern Territory Marine General. Now he is just a descendant and dares not to obey my orders. If he really becomes the Hedong Jieshou, wouldn't he take me even more seriously? If he wants to be the Hedong Jieshou, he can do it. As long as he leads the main force, goes out of Daizhou, crosses the Sanggan River, and goes straight to Guizhou and Tanzhou, and takes these two places, then I, Li Ze, will be the first to write a letter to ask His Majesty to enthrone him as the Hedong Jieshou."
Xue Ping shook his head, knowing that this matter was impossible to reach an agreement.
Han Qi repeatedly wrote to the court, but the court could only remain silent due to Li Ze's strong opposition. In fact, Li Ze even strongly demanded the removal of Han Qi's post as a descendant of Hedong. The court can only deal with it with the compromise and no one agrees.
Li Ze sniffed his nose at this method of shrinking his head and falling into the sand to be a turtle, but he didn't care. His purpose was to not let Han Qi become the Hedong Jieshen in just right. As for the rest, he didn't care. Anyway, with his strong support, Zhang Jia's strength grew, not only steadily occupying Weizhou and Weizhou, but also had the strength to reach out to Shuozhou and Li Cunzhong to compete openly and secretly.
In the next step, Li Ze is preparing to strongly support Zhang Jia in attacking the offensive states, Tanzhou and other places that have been isolated from Lu Long's main force. Once Zhang Jia takes these two states, Li Ze is preparing to support Zhang Jia as the head coach of Hedong with this credit. Cheng and Bucheng are talking about it first. At least Zhang Jia's credit will be clearly placed on the table at that time.
Of course, during this process, Wuwei Association completely controls Zhang Jia in his hands openly and secretly. Xu Ziyuan is now following Zhang Jia, doing this work, and Yixingshe's small hand has long stretched out quietly.
Among the several bandits Zhang Jia was recruited in Weizhou, there were people from Wuwei, and Tian Bo's inner guard was responsible for these matters.
The greater the power of Zhang Jia, the greater the power of Li Ze within him.
Of course, there is no need to let Xue Ping know about these things.
Turning his head to look at Liu Chenglin, Li Ze said, "Tell me about Mozhou's situation."
Liu Chenglin nodded: "Deng Jingshan's retreat was extremely rapid. Almost when Zhang Zhongwu was defeated in Yishuihe, he began to prepare. When Zhang Zhongwu's main force withdrew from Jicheng, his retreat also began. Before that, we always thought he would fight. Fortunately, the Rangers spyed and obtained news, General Li De attacked immediately and finally gained some results, but he only defeated the main cavalry of the Khitan. For Deng Jingshan, it was not a big deal, but his plunder when he left was left with a mess. The situation in Mozhou is now miserable. Even if military rations are used, it can only set up some porridge sheds to barely survive. There are countless people who freeze to death to starve every day."
"Is it all the same?" Li Ze asked.
