Chapter 351: Scholar's Rebellion Failed After Ten Years
Beijing, Mi County.
There are five powerful families in Mi County, namely Wang, Zhang, Wu, Liu and Tang, and the Wang family is the leader of the five families.
Today, the heads of the four families, Zhang, Wu, Liu and Tang, gathered at the Wang family to discuss important matters.
Usually, the five families had some unpleasantness due to interests, but today, the five families put aside their past grudges and gathered together to discuss things, which shows the importance of the matter.
Outside the study of Wang Youren, the head of the Wang family, there were many servants holding swords and other weapons. Without the order of the head of the family, Wang Youren, anyone who dared to approach the study would be killed without mercy.
In the study, the person who presided over the meeting was not Wang Youren, the head of the Wang family, but a middle-aged scholar named Mr. Wen Yang.
"We have money and people, and we have sufficient weapons, equipment, food and other military supplies, and intelligence support. You will be aware of any actions of the court in the first time, and the official troops going out to the expedition will even secretly assist you. What else is there to worry about?" Mr. Wen Yang frowned, with a dissatisfied expression on his face.
Although these guys are dominant, they are obviously not good at doing big things. However, they are the most suitable to act as pawns.
For the big things of the big guys, he had to suppress his dissatisfaction and anger in his heart, and patiently explained and analyzed the current situation to them, so that they could understand the pros and cons. If they didn't want to resist, they could only let themselves be slaughtered.
"What if it fails?" Liu Chengwei, the head of the Liu family, stammered, with a worried look on his face.
Every family's history of wealth is inevitably filled with some dark things that are not allowed to be seen in the light, even with blood, murder and looting. He is not afraid, but today, they are discussing the big thing of rebellion. If it fails, killing three clans is a light punishment, so he has to be careful.
"If it fails, let them disperse and deal with those who know about it. There are big guys helping to cover it up. What can the Jinyiwei find out?" Mr. Wen Yang said with a smile.
"Besides, you don't need to show up for this matter. Everyone present knows that if the matter is leaked, hehe."
Mr. Wen Yang didn't finish his words, but just chuckled, but anyone could hear that if the matter was leaked, it could only be one of the five of you. I am not only responsible for matchmaking, but also for commanding troops to fight. It is impossible for me to leak secrets, let alone betray Dong Weng.
The five heads of the family exchanged glances, and finally gritted their teeth and nodded, agreeing to Mr. Wen Yang's request.
They were unwilling to be taxed and slaughtered by the tyrant. Mr. Wen Yang's method gave them hope and decided to take a gamble.
According to Mr. Wen Yang's analysis and planning, the chances of success are very high. Even if it fails, according to what Mr. Wen Yang said, those confidants who knew the truth will evaporate from the world. Who knows that they were secretly instigating it?
After some bargaining, the Wang family contributed 2,000 people, the Zhang family contributed 1,500 people, the Wu family contributed 1,500 people, and the Liu and Tang families each contributed 1,000 people. The five families added up to 7,000 people.
However, they also have their own conditions. They only provide people, and Mr. Wen Yang will solve the weapons, equipment, and food.
"Gentlemen, just sit back and wait for good news." Mr. Wen Yang said, with a confident smile on his thin face.
Well, he is still very confident in his talents.
He is not only talented, but also well-versed in military books. Unfortunately, he failed the imperial examinations several times. Due to the pressure of life, he had to be a teacher and help his boss with strategies, but he was very ambitious and wanted to stand out. Now, he finally waited for the opportunity to soar to the sky.
Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, two mud legs, can play so big. He is talented and crushes the two a hundred times. He has the advantage of time, place, and people. Can't he play?
Mr. Wen Yang said goodbye to the five people and left with confidence. In the next few days, he needs to organize the army and will be busy for several days. In addition to the 7,000 troops from the five great tyrants in Mi County, there are 13,000 troops from the seven great tyrants in Jin County, making up a total of 20,000.
With 20,000 troops, well-equipped and high morale, and planning before action, they were fighting an attack war, so how could they not win?
"Your Majesty, something big has happened." Jinyiwei Commander Tian Boguang received the secret report, and was so scared that his face turned pale, and he crawled into the palace to report it.
"You are the commander of Jinyiwei, but you are so scared. I am very disappointed. Get out." Zhu Youjian read the secret report and just sneered in his heart, but Tian Boguang was so scared that he kicked him down.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me." Tian Boguang was so scared that he was sweating and secretly cursed himself as a bastard. Fortunately, the emperor did not really lose his temper, otherwise, he would be in trouble if he was stripped of his position as Jinyiwei Commander by the emperor.
"It will take ten years for a scholar to rebel, hum." Zhu Youjian sneered.
