Chapter 388 Persuasion
"Everyone, everyone, please listen to me first." Han Zhaoxuan stood up at the right time, raised his hands falsely, and shouted loudly to the leaders: "Everyone can follow Lord Hou to Jiaocheng, I think you must have a good feeling for Lord Hou in your heart." The heart of attachment, I have a word, which is the voice of the heart, and I want to share it with you.”

Everyone slowly quieted down, staring at Han Zhaoxuan with either full of expectation or indifference, while Han Zhaoxuan puffed out his chest and belly, spouting saliva and talking eloquently.

"Hou Ye came here on order to save the army and people in Shanxi from the fire and the fire. The imperial court did not send anyone else to be a supervisor. The intention is obvious. This is to let Hou Ye lead the overall situation!"

"Jiang Zongbing was in Datong and was besieged by the Tartars. The long trench was dug so heavily that even the mice couldn't get out. How could he lead us to fight? Everyone, including me and Yu Yin, surrendered anyway. Officer, you have braids on the back of your head. Naturally, you are not expected to be a leader. Only Hou Ye, with the emperor's sword and the seal of the general army, came here by decree. This righteousness is here. Whether you accept it or not, Yu Yin and I will obey Already! From now on, I am willing to be a pawn in front of Lord Hou’s tent, and obey my orders!”

This is to express his position. Han Zhaoxuan gave full play to his eloquence when he was a censor, and bowed his hand towards the south while speaking, showing that he was attached to Wang Huan and obeyed the court.

The leaders below kept their mouths shut and did not speak. To raise an objection at this time is to disrespect the Ming court and openly oppose Emperor Yongli's decree.

In anticipation of everyone's reaction, Han Zhaoxuan went on to speak loudly: "As for the future of everyone, please think carefully about it. In our Shanxi province, the Jiang family has been cultivating for decades, and there are countless members of the gang. Is it our share? Everyone here, the biggest official in the past was only the fifth-rank magistrate, why? It is nothing more than not entering the Jiang family circle. If the Jiang family becomes the co-lord of Shanxi, the Tartars will be beaten away in the future, leaving many The job site is not cheap for the Jiang family's children. At that time, everyone, don't say that Ma Mingtu's official position and title can keep his previous position. Think about it, everyone, is this the truth?"

After hearing this, everyone's expressions gradually changed from those full of worries and deep doubts, and many people began to nod their heads thoughtfully.

Wang Huan glanced at Han Zhaoxuan, with a smile on his lips, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

This was a good agreement in advance. Wang Huan knew that it would not be so easy for the leaders of the rebel army to follow him willingly. The sword can only make them surrender on the surface, but they may not be willing to surrender in their hearts. Such teammates are extremely unreliable, and if there is any trouble, they will turn back. Therefore, when a big local tyrant like Han Zhaoxuan shows up and speaks, the effect is not the same up.

Encouraged by Wang Huan's eyebrows, Han Zhaoxuan immediately felt overwhelmed with motivation. Wang Huan had secretly promised him that once he got Shanxi, at least he would be given the position of chief envoy, which was much higher than what Jiang Tuan could give him, so this is Immediately struck while the iron was hot, puffed up his cheeks and spoke again.

"But Pinglianghou is different. Lord Hou is from the middle of Shu, and the soldiers he leads are guest troops. Even if Shanxi is occupied in the future, it will have to be governed by Shanxi officials. Let's look at Wang Yongqiang from Shaanxi. A small general in the town, because he followed Lord Hou, made great contributions to the pacification of Shaanxi, and now he is the commander of South Shaanxi Town, and he is named Yan'an Bo, and he is actually leading the army!"

"It can be seen from a glimpse of the leopard. Wang Yongqiang is a reckless man who can recognize the general situation and distinguish likes and dislikes. Can we Shanxi heroes not match him? I, Han, read the books of sages, but I claim to be much better than the illiterate Wang Yongqiang. Therefore, as soon as Lord Hou arrived, he immediately led the crowd to join him, without even hesitating."

What he said was righteous and forceful, and his facial expression was serious and majestic, as if it was true. The faces of the generals of the Kuizhou Army who knew his details twitched, secretly thinking that this person is a genius when he lies to such an extent. .

Because his back was facing Wang Huan, he couldn't see whether his face was red or not, but he continued: "Under the rule of Lord Hou, Vientiane is renewed, and the treasures of heaven and earth are renewed. If you don't see the Bashu area, it's not like it was before." The scene of thieves raging and the people living in poverty during the years is already worthy of the name of the Land of Abundance; the land of natural disasters in Shaanxi was originally full of bandits, and there were more thieves than good people. Now, after less than a year of possession by Lord Hou, he has turned the bandits into the people and the barren land into fertile land. Well, in another year or so, I believe there will be a big change. If you love the people like your own son, will you still break your promise to us?"

He turned to Yu Yin who was standing aside: "Really? Lord Yu?"

Yu Yin is a martial artist, not good at speaking. At this moment, he was touching the bruise on his face when he fought with Monk Hou, thinking about something, when Han Zhaoxuan called his name, he opened his mouth hastily, but he didn't know what to say, he held back After a while, he raised his hand and blurted out, "I'll be in a hurry with anyone who doesn't believe in Lord Hou!"

Everyone looked at him with a trace of surprise in their eyes, which made Yu Yin very bored and a little embarrassed. To cover up the embarrassment, he raised his hand and shouted: "It must be urgent!"

Han Zhaoxuan nodded approvingly, then turned around, knelt down on one knee to Wang Huan, lowered his head, and shouted, "Han Zhaoxuan, the general who leads the Shanxi anti-justice army, is willing to serve the Lord with all his heart and soul. I will go through fire and water, and I will die!"

As soon as he took the lead, the people behind looked at each other, immediately knelt down and shouted in unison: "The last general (lower official) is willing to fight with the Marquis and die!"

Among them, Yu Yin has the loudest voice. His eloquence is far inferior to that of Han Zhaoxuan, and he cannot play the role of a white face. He can only rely on his loud voice in the hope of leaving a deeper impression on Wang Huan.

Looking at the black heads kneeling in front of him and the various hats on their heads, Wang Huan laughed. He knew that even if some of them were not sincere, they had already achieved their goal. The Shanxi Rebel Army, at least in Ming Dynasty On the surface, it will be a friendly army that he can command.

"Please hurry up, everyone, there is no need for such a big gift!" Wang Huan waved his hands, and said in his mouth: "We are all ministers of the Ming Dynasty, fighting for the king and the people. Remember, in the future, you will be named an official Yinzi, and you will have your own fortune!"

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard the words, and stood up one after another. Under the leadership of Yu Yin's loud voice, they once again shouted in unison: "Thank you, Lord Hou!"

Wang Huan invited everyone to sit down, and accompanied by the sound of "squeaky" buttocks falling on the mat, he signaled to Ma Wannian to erect a long pole beside him and hang a huge cloth map on it.

If you take a closer look, you will find that this is a rough map of the whole province of Shanxi. The mountains are drawn with ink, the rivers are made of cinnabar, the cities are made of dots, and the mountains are made of curves. Do the whole picture of Shanxi.

Those who know the goods, naturally know that this map is based on the Ming military map, and it is more detailed and accurate.

"Everyone, now let's talk about the next move." Wang Huan stretched out his hand and flicked the map: "According to spies, Dorgon, the Tartar chieftain and pseudo-regent who has just left, has taken over The soldiers of the Eight Banners are coming east, a fierce battle is inevitable!"

　ps: I'm really sorry, the update has been delayed in the past two days because of my son's study, but it has been completed today, so the normal update will start tomorrow.
