Ren Weiyong asked Ren Dalong to help him promote the Zombie God Sect.
Ren Dalong was a zombie, and Ren Weiyong was his uncle who had taken care of him since he was young. Ren Dalong had no reason to reject him.
However, Ren Dalong still refused.
And the reason was very good: he was not suitable to show his face in the army recently.
"Uncle, you don't know, but the world is more chaotic than before…The Qing Dynasty is dead!”
Ren Dalong lowered his voice and whispered into Ren Weiyong's ear.
It was obvious that the news of the fall of the Qing Dynasty had not been announced to the world yet. It was only limited to the higher-ups of the warlords.
When Ren Dalong mentioned this, his eyes lit up with excitement. He was even more excited than when he had just turned into a zombie.
However, Ren Weiyong's reaction surprised him.
When Ren Weiyong heard this earth-shattering news, he was not excited at all. Instead, he looked dispirited.
"The Qing Dynasty is dead." Ren Weiyong yawned and asked," What does this have to do with you?”
"Of course it's related!"
Ren Dalong explained to him,"I'm a warlord from Xiangxi. I was originally a new army under the Qing court. I'm an army loyal to the court!" However, General Yuan is our leader. If he wants to overthrow the Qing court and become the emperor himself…we can't object!”
This scene had been played out many times in history, and it was commonly known as " wearing a yellow robe."
"Then you should support Big Head Yuan!" Ren Weiyong did not understand what Dalong was conflicted about.
"It's not that simple!"
Ren Dalong turned his head to look out of the window again. After making sure that there was no one around, he came back and whispered,"I received reliable news that the sixth prince of the Qing court, Xuan Song, has already raised his flag to the capital to help the emperor! Xuan Song has thousands of elite soldiers under him, and the imperial court still has some power left. It's hard to say if General Yuan can sit firmly on the throne…"
When Ren Weiyong heard this, he looked at Ren Dalong's sneaky appearance and immediately understood.
This guy wanted to bet on both sides, and he would follow whichever side won!
Sigh, the bad habits of the warlord class…
Ren Weiyong was a little speechless.
In Ren Dalong's eyes, the powerful royal army was just a paper tiger and a silver spear in Ren Weiyong's eyes…In short, they could not withstand a single blow.
In his memory, the royal army did not have the slightest impact on Yuan Shikai's declaration of emperor.
Perhaps it was because the royal army was too good-for-nothing that Yuan Shikai's self-confidence was so high that he fought a war of restoration with various warlords... The result was that he was defeated and died.
Of course, there was no need to explain these things to Ren Dalong.
Ren Weiyong said in a tough tone," Don't worry about Xuan Song or Xuan Ye. You just need to train your army well and make them trust you. When the time comes, no matter who becomes the emperor, they will have to put you in an important position!"”
"Sigh, Uncle, you are definitely powerful in a one-on-one battle, but you don't understand the world's general trend! How could changing dynasties be so simple? I can't show my face now. Once I show my face, someone will force me to make a statement. "If we stand on the wrong side, we'll be dead for sure…" Ren Dalong was still nagging.
"You can choose Big Head Yuan. He will definitely win this battle!”Ren Weiyong interrupted him impatiently.
" No, no. In my professional eyes after more than ten years in the army, Xuan Song has the righteous slogan of 'protecting the king'. For example, Cao Cao, who commands the princes by holding the emperor hostage, has at least a seventy percent chance of winning! " On the other hand, although General Yuan has a slight advantage in terms of military strength, he is just a commoner. He lacks prestige…" Ren Dalong tried to reverse his uncle's wrong view through professional analysis.
"Shut up! If this venerable self said that Big Head Yuan would win, then he would definitely win! You don't trust me?" Ren Weiyong did not want to hear his explanation at all.
Ren Dalong naturally did not dare to say that he did not trust Ren Weiyong.
However, it was obvious that his aggrieved eyes showed that he was dissatisfied with his uncle's arbitrary judgment.
Ren Weiyong was angry when he saw his cowardly appearance!
No wonder Ren Dalong, the warlord, was not famous. With his knowledge, even if he did not become a zombie, he would not be able to achieve much in the future!
However, he was his nephew after all. Moreover, he had turned into a zombie and was also his younger brother. He could not let him do anything stupid.
"Listen up, now that you're back in the army, declare your support for Yuan Datou! If anyone has objections or suggests that you help the king, you can kill them directly! Anyway, you're a zombie now. It's not difficult for you to kill a few ordinary people!”
"But, this…"
"Not only that, but you also need to recruit refugees and give them the royal family's land to cultivate. This is called land reform…You don't have to care what it's called. In short, it means robbing the rich to help the poor.”
"There's no time to do this now…"
"If you don't listen to me, I'll make sure you can't even be a zombie!”
"Alright then…"
Ren Dalong agreed gloomily.
Uncle was a good person, but he was too arbitrary.
Ren Dalong concluded that if he did this blindly, he would definitely be killed by the enemy or his subordinates in the future.
But if he didn't listen to his uncle, he wouldn't have a future…
He could only choose the lesser of two evils and obediently obey.
……
A few days later.
The world was in turmoil.
Xuan Song's Royal Guards and Yuan Shikai's new army fought in a nameless place less than a hundred miles from Yanjing.
The result of the battle was one-sided.
The result of using cold weapons against the modern army was shocking. This could not even be called a war. It was a one-sided massacre.
Xuan Song's heavy cavalry only launched a round of charge before they were scattered by the two Maxim heavy machine guns that the new army had just equipped.
Killing people was like cutting grass, and his voice was like thunder!
The first time the heavy machine gun appeared in the East, it became a nightmare for the royal family.
The royal army was known as the last elite of the Eight Banners, and they began to crumble in less than an hour.
Xuan Song was so angry that he spat out three liters of blood on the spot. He fell off his horse, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
……
When Ren Dalong received this news, he was shocked by Ren Weiyong's divine-like judgment.
"Commander Yuan won…"
These days, Ren Dalong had already followed Ren Weiyong's instructions and stood on Yuan Shikai's side.
At that time, many of his subordinates objected, afraid of offending the imperial family's elders.
When the news of Xuan Song's defeat came, everyone knew of Marshal Ren's foresight and became even more respectful to him.
The next step was to snatch the land of the royal family and give it to the refugees to cultivate…
Because they had seized the initiative, Ren Dalong earned a lot of money this time, and the team directly doubled.
As for the other warlords, because they were at odds, some of them even joined the royal army. Most of them suffered heavy losses.
Ren Dalong took the opportunity to expand and split up more than half of Xiangxi. His prestige was even higher.
Ren Dalong was overjoyed and came to Zombie Temple to find his uncle to fulfill his wish.
However, this time, Ren Dalong waited for three incense sticks to burn out, but his uncle did not show up.
Because Ren Weiyong was busy upgrading zombie domain…
