Chapter 361: Chess game is everywhere, smiling at the wind and clouds

The King of Rebirth was born as a local tyrant and was very indifferent to the other battalions. He was nothing more than following powerful people. This was the case. According to the conventional law, the Fifth Battalion of the Left was also in the same spirit and must have rescued him. But now the distance between the two sides is so far, Yingzhou is relatively safe. I am about to enter Henan. Is it necessary to go back to rescue? The two had a little dispute in private.

"Old Liu and the others are trapped there. Let them go. We can enter Henan in four days, so the sea and the sky are vast. If we take care of everything in such a chaotic era, then no one will be better. If we walk like this, I believe that Lao Liu and Lao He can understand our intentions."

Wang Lin, who was reborn, said it was so high-sounding, but Ma Shouying had his own persistence and said:

"The people in the world always look at us. They always look at the fifth camp of the G Zuo. They didn't say that we were talking about it alone. At present, the King of Chuang has become a momentum in Henan. If we invest in it, the more capital we will bring, the better. If we two are alone, what benefits can we have."

The guards and their personal soldiers were driven out, and they had no scruples when they spoke. Ma Shouying said nakedly and coldly:

"I heard from the soldiers who reported the news that the backbone of the Third Battalion in the city is still there. As long as it can be rescued, the Fifth Battalion of the Lezuo is still a big figure in the world. When going to the King of Chuang, he will have the status of Liu Zongmin. The King of Chuang has to make arrangements for us personally. If we were two of us, I am afraid that if Liu Zongmin came forward, we would be the first-time waiter."

This is true. Since I made up my mind to go to Henan, it would not be a free and easy life for the fifth camp, but a plan for my future origin and status. Lin Yangcheng immediately had nothing to say and immediately expressed his obedience to Ma Shouying's arrangement and went to Yingshang City to break the siege and rescue.

The old Huihui and the King of Gaishi moved. Almost all Nanzhili knew that there were quick horses and surveillances nearby who were surveillance to Yingshang to report to the gang general Chen Liu.

Once the two battalions of the Fifth Battalion of the Lezuo Camp left Yingzhou City, they sent out to the ground-sent-sentenced provocates to suffer heavy losses. The news they knew was only what the army saw and heard. Outside their vision, they were completely blind, and the rest were completely in the dark.

But he also stumbled towards Yingshang. After all, it was an army of more than 100,000 people, and the horses and whistles could not do anything to them.

The area of ​​Nanzhili is not like Henan and Shaanxi. The real dominant local areas are rich families. These people naturally do not want to have any relationship with the Fifth Gyezuo Camp composed of refugees. They all stood firmly on the side of the Jiaozhou Camp to cover the battlefield for the Yang Army of Huai in Jiaozhou Camp and informed them.

Gao Ke, the deputy general of the Huai Yang Army who was stationed in Xuzhou, led his five battalions to Hongze Lake in mid-July. At this time, he advanced west along the Huai River, and even though he went upstream, he still passed Shouzhou and headed straight for Yingshang City.

The eunuch Lu Jiude, the governor of Nanjing, lost the lawsuit with Jiaozhou Camp, and the court had to be concerned about military generals, especially the words that made the hearts of soldiers in the world cold. That was to connect the signals of causing trouble. The eunuch's power came entirely from the court, but he could speak more heavily.

As a result, in July, although the attack on Shandong's grain transport in Lijin was not stopped, the court still issued an order, denounced Lu Jiude, saying that he should not speculate on himself, so as not to cause trouble.

Lu Jiude, the eunuch in Nanjing, was extremely depressed. He, the eunuch in charge, was obviously responsible for allocating troops in Nanzhili, but the Huai Yang army, which occupied a quarter of the territory, did not obey the orders at all, and they also had evil intentions and could not beat them. It was really helpless to say that they were scolded.

Seeing that the high-tech team led these five battalions by the side of Shouzhou in a great momentum, the eunuch Lu Jiude of Nanjing had to strengthen his vigilance and looked at him in fear.

However, when the news that the old Hui Hui and the two divisions of the Changshi Wang of Yingzhou City came, there was nothing to say about him. The fifth camp of the Gezuo went to Henan and everyone was idle. This was the common idea of ​​the civil and military officials of the Southern Zhili. Who would have thought that the fifth camp of the Gezuo came back again?

The soldiers and horses in Shandong are really troublesome. Although you don’t like staying in Zhengyang Town, you just stay there honestly. Why do you need to surround Yingshang City? When the thieves run to Henan by themselves, wouldn’t it be easy for everyone to save trouble and spend so much energy to surround them, but they will kill them back, which is boring!

Now, Henan is quiet, Li and Luo coalition forces stationed in Zhongmu Xiuli, west of Kaifeng City. Zhang Xianzhong from Nanzhili has already gone to Huguang, and the fifth camp of Gezuo also wanted to go north. Who would have thought that the Huai Yang Army did not play according to common sense and completely broke the peaceful situation.

All territories are about to move again...

Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai's millions were on the edge of Kaifeng City. Although they did not move, they were like a giant beast yawning there. Although they were very calm, the people next to the giant beast would definitely be extremely afraid and trembling.

Now, more than 9,000 troops led by Chen Yongfu, Governor Li Xianfeng, General Chen Yongfu, inspector Gao Mingheng and the Zhou royal palace, everyone scolded the useless officers and soldiers in Zhuxian Town, and began to make a big fuss. Who would have thought of this in the end?

As a result, Yang Wenyue ran to Runing, Zuo Liangyu, and Hu Dawei ran to Fancheng in Huguang, and Kaifeng City had to face the threat of millions of thieves. It was really unlucky.

Although there were a million people, the camp's horse-striking posts were sent to Guide Mansion and Chenzhou and Xiangcheng areas south of Kaifeng Mansion to see what was going on in Shandong. Li Zicheng was relieved when he heard that the troops in Nanzhili and the Fifth Battalion of Gezuo were going to fight.

At present, Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai are both judging that Kaifeng Prefecture has been defeated, and only Kaifeng City is left. Is this the top five cities in the world the bottom line for Shandong soldiers? I remember that I didn’t react any way to move in Henan, but once I besieged Kaifeng, Shandong immediately mobilized a large army.

Moreover, the core personnel of Chuangzhan and Cao Cao camp were thinking about it. At the moment of high morale, they seized a large number of baggage firearms. The combat effectiveness of Chuangzhan and Cao Cao camp has reached a higher level. Can we fight another battle with the opponent's Shandong soldiers and horses to see the heights?

But in that battle between Wo Shui, the difference in combat powers between them was really too great. Although this time it improved quickly, no one can say whether the gap can be made up for it!

After Hou Xun, the former Minister of Revenue, was appointed as the governor, he led 30,000 troops from the Beijing camp to gather in Fengqiu on the north bank of Kaifeng City, and joined forces with 20,000 Jin soldiers led by the Shanxi General Xu Dingguo.

Let’s not talk about the military troops in the Beijing camp where Hou Xun brought out, many of them were still civilians in the 14th year of Chongzhen, and many of them were just refugees in the market. They only gave away the money to buy military household registration in order to make money, and they were not in the camp at all. This time, they were forced to arrest, with low morale and poor martial arts skills.

The Shanxi soldiers were no longer experienced border soldiers in Datong. The old border soldiers followed the commander Lu Xiangsheng to the invasion of the Qing Dynasty. Most of the casualties were killed or injured in Julu when the Qing Dynasty invaded. The rest were taken outside the pass by Hong Chengchou and lost almost all in Songshan.

The officers and soldiers in Shanxi are not much better than those in the Jing camp. The 10,000 Huai Yang Army in Nanzhili dared to fight the Fifth Camp of Gezuo, which is ten times more than itself. But here, there are only more than 10,000 people in the other side of Li Guo who are in the territory of the territory, and the front team is used as a warning, but these 50,000 officers and soldiers dare not cross the river at all.

The memorials from Kaifeng City were constantly sent to the capital, crying for the court to send troops to rescue the siege. Emperor Chongzhen and the ministers in the court sent them to Hou Xun's camp in Fengqiu according to the procedures, urging Hou Xun to send troops to the south bank of the Yellow River to rescue Kaifeng as soon as possible.

Why did the Minister of Revenue Hou Xun be used? Zuo Liangyu started his business back then, and it was all thanks to Hou Xun's support. Although Zuo Liangyu has suffered heavy losses at present, he is still the most powerful officer, soldier and general in the Central Plains. The court hopes to mobilize these generals who do not obey orders through the relationship between Hou Xun and Zuo Liangyu.

But the charge of Hou Xun being sentenced to the imperial edict was not because it angered Emperor Chongzhen's stubbornness or common party struggles, but because he committed a crime of greed during the Shangshu office. This was because he was imprisoned. He had never had any local political achievements. His merits were purely because he dared to speak and was just empty talk; the second was that he was right to stand in the team. He was always brave in the party struggles, so he came to such a high position step by step. However, with his high position and the efforts of his party members to protect him, he could be imprisoned for corruption. It is conceivable that his hands were so dark.

Such a person is a joke whether he is capable or character in his position as a supervisor. He hopes that he can go to rescue or make the war improve a little unless the sun comes out from the west.

As a result, when he came to Fengqiu, he would drink and have fun every day, waiting for the troops from Shanxi to meet. The commander Hou Xun was very proud of his son Hou Fangyu. Hou Fangyu was known as a great talent. Now he is studying in Jiangnan, with a vast friendship and a famous Jiangzuo. However, his reputation is more about traveling on the Qinhuai River and gaining the title of a romantic talent.

In recent years, Henan has been in turmoil and wars have been connected. Those poor mud legs have rebelled, causing the families of the gentry to be destroyed. Hou Xun also felt sad when he saw that the rabbit died and the fox was sad.

However, his hometown Guide has been good for many years. Although Li Zhenhai was a thief, he did not dare to harm a wealthy family like the Shangshu Mansion. Over the years, there has been a lot of land in the Shangshu Mansion. In recent years, Guide has promoted water conservancy and even the food he has won is no disaster. The family treasury is rich and his son is good. Of course, Lord Shangshu is very comforted. He originally thought that he would try his best to make more this time, and then he would retire and return to De to live his life, or go to Jiangnan to see the thin horses in Yangzhou and Qinhuai in his letter, but he was sued and put into prison.

Fortunately, the sky did not destroy me, but I had this opportunity to go south to lead troops. Thinking about this, it was a good game to take Zuo Liangyu back then. Unfortunately, Zuo Liangyu is now domineering. It is still a bit different to whether his old friendship could still move. Especially when he was not gentle and lingering to him, he was a little cruel.

The imperial decree urged, and Hou Xun was anxious and had to try to order crossing the river. Who would have thought that the first day of the day was that it was crossing the river the next day, but in the end, a large number of soldiers were passing away at night, and mutinies occurred in several camps. The old man was just a name to make some money, who would be the fucking man to work for you? Can you afford to serve? Even the general of Shanxi Xu Dingguo could not suppress his camp and whistle everywhere. Finally, he made a wish and pressure, so he barely suppressed it, almost causing a big mess. But even so, he went to the ten-stop three miles, and the remaining land had to be monitored by his personal soldiers to desperately avoid running away. How could such soldiers fight?

It has to be said that the imperial guards of all dynasties were mostly impersonated and gangsters. They relied on bribes to join the camp and receive food and wages. Anyway, they were free, and they didn’t need to be digging or practicing. The Shence Army of the Tang Dynasty was also a strong soldier, suppressing the vassal states and fighting against Tubo. They were very good at it, but before the world was settled, a large number of wealthy families in Chang'an came in. They would not have anything except setting fires and looting in Chang'an during the coup.

Seeing that his troops were dispersed and there was still something to talk about for rescue, Hou Xu Dingguo discussed with Xu Dingguo, and reported to Emperor Chongzhen that the situation in Henan was so decayed. The thief was so powerful that he must be treated with caution. Kaifeng City was a strong city in the world, with red cannons, and the waterways had not been cut off. The food and wages were sufficient, and he was besieged several times before. The emperor was wise and the soldiers used their lives. They all turned bad luck into good luck, and this time they must be able to support them.

Since this is the case, Kaifeng City on the south bank of the Yellow River is not critical for the time being, it is better to send people to gather border troops in Shanxi and Shaanxi to strengthen their strength. When there is enough strength, cross the river and attack again, and immediately break into the thieves and station troops under the strong city. The soldiers are tired and sick and gather to annihilate them, so they are very sure.

Of course, Kaifeng City is now in danger. Since Fengqiu's troops cannot cross the river to rescue, you can use a compromise method. What should I do if Kaifeng City was in danger in the past? Shandong soldiers came across the river. This time it would be better to follow the old examples. Sending Shandong soldiers to come, isn't it a way to have the best of both worlds?

Whether it is civil officials and military generals, anyone who leads troops outside has a greater autonomy. It is reasonable for the generals of the commander Hou Xun to say this, but since the war in Zhuxian Town started, Shandong soldiers have found various reasons not to send troops, and the court no longer expects to be able to be transferred.

However, when Hou Xun was the Minister of Revenue that day, he had some connections in the court. When he issued an edict and imprisoned, he was very strict and took some guilt on others. There were many favors. This time, someone helped him say that Emperor Chongzhen was in a dizzy state at this time. As long as the ministers below said some truth, he would be accurate.

As a result, Hou Xun and Xu Dingguo sent people to Shaanxi to collect border soldiers. The border soldiers in Shanxi were gathered by the imperial court and refugees one after another. God knew that so many border soldiers emerged there, and then God knew how powerful these border soldiers could be.

In the history without Li Meng, the commander Hou Xun led the Jingying, Shanxi and Shandong soldiers to the north bank of the Yellow River. However, there was no war. All the Shanxi soldiers and horses collapsed within a day and night, and nearly half of the Jingying was collapsed. Only Shandong Liu Zeqing's soldiers were still there, but hesitated and dared not fight.

At that time, what Hou Xun could do was to submit a memorial to the court, saying, "The ministers' name is Qizhen, and only tens of thousands of soldiers were combined. Therefore, it is better to stick to the north bank and abandon all the land in Henan to submit it."

Although the unchanging history is different from the current one, the results are actually no different. Fortunately, Li Meng only knows the major events of history, but he does not know these details. If he knew that he had made such a change of trouble, what should have happened still happened, and I don’t know what he would think in his heart.

Of course, he didn't expect that Hou Xun would think of doing this, but it was actually the seeds he planted. Shangshu Mansion was a wealthy family in Guide. In the last battle of Woshui, several relatives of Hou Shangshu were also in the formation, so Shangshu Hou also knew a lot about Shandong soldiers and horses, so he thought of this. Moreover, with a local talent like Shangshu Hou, maybe he could smell some different air in these clues. A leisurely person here may not be a clever hand.

It is still the water pavilion on the banks of Daming Lake. It is cloudy and rainy, and the air is very stuffy. Even the water pavilion in this cool place can be seen sweating while sitting inside.

However, Li Meng's mood was better than before. Sun Chuanting's iron face was replaced with a bamboo mask. There were personal guards and documents in the water pavilion. People kept asking for instructions, reviewing documents, and analyzing information. It was always people coming and going and they couldn't get idle.

On this day, Sun Chuanting was stuffy even with a bamboo mask. Sweat flowed down the gap. From time to time, he turned around and lifted the mask, and wiped the sweat with a hand towel.

"Mr. Gongsun, the weather in Jinan Prefecture City is much worse than that in Jiaozhou. At this time, several places near the sea in Lingshanwei are very cool. After a while, we will go there and don't have to suffer here in summer."

To be fair, compared to modern times, Jinan City is actually not that hot, but Li Meng has adapted to the climate of this era for more than ten years. When he came to Jinan, he naturally felt uncomfortable in this relative comparison.

Hearing Li Meng’s chat, Sun Chuanting smiled, covered his mask on his face, and replied with a smile:

"Master, don't say such things. There are still many busy times in the future. I'm afraid that when I think of today, I wonder why I'm so leisurely in the day."

Everyone in the room laughed, and now Li Meng is already the general of Zhendong and will be even busier in the future. This is really a kind prayer and good wish. Everyone is clinging to Li Meng's big tree. If Li Meng is amazing in the future, everyone will also rise with the water and the ship will rise. Everyone is happy about this.

It has been a while since Sun Chuanting changed the title of "Master" to "Master". The jokes like this today really show that Mr. Sun's mood has changed.

I was so happy today, but Sun Chuanting's second son achieved excellent evaluation in the training of the Dengzhou Army. This excellent evaluation is the highest evaluation of soldiers' performance evaluation on weekdays. Soldiers with this evaluation have the opportunity to be selected into the personal military camp, and then the non-commissioned officers and officers sat down step by step.

Sun Chuanting's second son was originally a half-year-old boy. He looked very innocent and childish. Since the Sun family was brought to Shandong, he was fascinated by the training of the personal military camp every day. After stabilizing, he begged to go out to join the army. Although Sun Chuanting could fight, he was also a talented man with both civil and military skills.

But after all, he was a civil servant, and his local children were planning to teach him to read and be polite. However, in this situation, if you don’t know what will happen in the future, it’s meaningless to stop it, so you agreed.

Because he could not use his original name, he asked for a name from Li Meng, and directly regarded it as a child of a wealthy family in Dengzhou. He was taken to his camp by Zhao Neng, the general of Dengzhou. These officials were well-educated when they were young, but were smart and knowledgeable. Third, Sun Chuanting was considered half a military general, which was also considered a family origin.

Besides, the Sun family has a low family style, and the children in the family are very real, and the second son of the Sun family is the same. He went to the army to start from an ordinary soldier. He started to practice hard and soon stood out. He was rated as an excellent person. He must focus on cultivating such good seedlings.

Sun Chuanting, who received the news, was worried about the other party's care. After inquiring, he found that his son was working hard. This father really felt a light on his face, and he had never stopped smiling these days. In addition, his eldest son is similar. He is currently working under Master Ning's curtain and is also well received and will be reused in the future.

By the way, since it is Sun Chuanting's son, of course he cannot use his original name. So Li Meng gave two pseudonyms, but the names were Zhongzheng and peaceful, one called "Sun Zhong" and the other called "Sun Shan". I don't know what the meaning is...

In the Water Pavilion, the documents collected from various places are divided into several levels according to their importance. The first is the news sent back from Luanzhou and the capital, the second is the news sent back from Henan and Nanzhili, and the third is the internal affairs of Shandong.

"Yang Chenwu was the captain of the fifth team of the personal military camp. He was the first group to be released to be the Qianzheng General. Not bad, not bad. He had such plans when facing the enemy and had such courage to fight. He was the talent of a general!"

Selecting available talents in battle is an important means to increase the talent of officers in military organizations. The more important it is to face the enemy, the more one can show a person's quality.

Li Meng took the document of Chen Liu to ask his subordinates for his meritorious service, thought for a while, and said in a deep voice:

"The overall situation is now chaotic, and the meritorious ministers will be promoted to inspire the morale of the Jiaozhou Camp. There are currently several battalions and the generals of the General Office of Guide Prefecture, Henan. After all, they are outside. They always have to make a decision on the spot. It is appropriate for Yang Chenwu to go there."

With this sentence, what awaits Yang Chenwu is going to make a fortune.

Li Meng raised his hand and waved his personal guards and documents in the water pavilion. Seeing that everyone left, Sun Chuanting took off his mask, wiped his face with a hand towel on the side, and wiped his sweat away. Li Meng said in a low voice:

"It is not worth mentioning that the single battalion of the Gezuo Fifth Battalion is taken out. Only when it is combined with one place can it have weight. We understand this principle, and the Gezuo Fifth Battalion also knows it. I thought that it could surround these five battalions in Yingshang City and directly wipe out Lisuo, but who thought that the two strongest ones would be left."

After Sun Chuanting wiped his face, he heard this and said:

"This situation is better!"

"That's right, besiege the city to fight the reinforcements, surround Yingshang, and fight against the reinforcements, but Chen Liu's battle report said that the old Hui and the reincarnated king had more than 100,000 teams in the hands of the old Huihui and the reincarnated king, and there were 40,000 in the city. He supported him 15,000 people, and it was okay to protect himself. It would be difficult to win any big victory... There is no need for Jiaozhou Camp to bear this kind of battle. Isn't there Lu Jiude's troops there?"

Speaking of this, both of them showed knowing smiles on their faces, and Li Meng smiled:

"Mr. Sun, do you think it's better to submit a memorial to the court to urge you, or to write a letter to Lu Jiude directly!"

"Master, according to Sun's wishes, it is the most appropriate method to directly submit the court. However, the old man has been in the inner court for a long time and should have a more accurate judgment. Can you disclose it?"

Li Meng thought for a moment and answered:

"During this period, my uncle was in charge of the affairs of the capital. My uncle and nephew were talking about Lu Jiude, half a year ago. I only remember my uncle had a judgment that although Lu Jiude came from the Wenya, he was more like a military general. People who were not in harmony with him at that time called him "Tong Guan".

Hearing this, Sun Chuanting laughed and said with a smile:

"With the words of the Grand Marshal, Sun knew what happened, so he would write a letter to Lu Jiude to explain the pros and cons. He naturally understood what to do. If their troops did not move, the Qingzhou army would move, and they would not be allowed to do it."

Li Meng nodded. This was the decision. He reached out and checked the notice from the capital. He couldn't find what he wanted. He asked Sun Chuanting a little depressedly:

"Mr. Sun, how much time does this mansion report usually take from copying to distributing it in various places?"
Chapter completed!
