Wang Zhizheng's strategy of closing the door and beating the dog, so that Emperor Chongzhen is quite in favor, Emperor Chongzhen is the same as Wang Zhizheng, he also believes that "the Jurchen is invincible", if you do not take the strategy of eliminating the source of soldiers, only rely on the strategy of driving, the Jurchen will never lose, if the Jurchen has no loss, the two powers will face off, one will lose the other, and the loss is the Ming Kingdom.

After formulating a strategy, Wang Zhizheng didn't dare to play with it, so he immediately went to the forbidden army to order troops and verify the soldiers.

Wang Zhi is the former generalissimo of the Forbidden Army, and his successor Jiang Nai, now the general counselor of the Praetorian Guard, although compared to a few years ago, the official position remains the same, but after Emperor Chongzhen personally led the Praetorian Guard, Jiang Nai is still the actual commander.

Wang Zhizheng arrived at the forbidden army mansion, Jiang Nai quickly stood up and went out to greet him, Wang Zhizheng didn't say nonsense, Huang Zongxi on the left and Chen Zilong on the right, escorted by one article and one martial arts, he strode to the middle, carefully took out the soldier talisman from his arms and read: "Jiang Nai, Xie Zhenglong listen to the order!"

Jiang Nai and Xie Zhenglong saw that the old leader's face was serious, and hurriedly knelt down to accept the order honestly.

Wang Zhizheng put the talisman in the palm of his hand and held it up and stared at Xie Zhenglong and Jiang Nai, and said: "Emperor Shengyu: The northern line of the Great Wall is the barrier of the northern frontier of the Ming Dynasty, and now Mongolia is plotting rebellion, and the thieves frequently make detours to enter the customs and rob the strategy, and the general soldiers of each Cypriot army are fighting separately and cannot be unified together.

He was appointed as the governor of Zheng Guogong Wang Zhizheng, Xie Zhenglong, the commander of the five military camps, as the commander of the northern line, Huang Zongxi as the commander-in-chief of Datong, and Jiang Nai as the deputy governor of the northern front.

As soon as Wang Zhizheng's words fell, Jiang Nai, Huang Zongxi, and Xie Zhenglong hurriedly knelt down to receive the order.

Wang Zhizheng raised his hand and said, "Get up." Brother Jiang, put away the talismans, the time is urgent, the task is heavy, there can be no delay, I will assign the task. ”

Jiang Nai and the others hurriedly waited for the military order.

Wang Zhizheng said: "Xie Zhenglong, immediately lead 15,000 battalions and prepare to participate in the battle, with Huang Zongxi assisting. Jiang Nai is responsible for the purchase of military supplies, and the troops will be sent at this time tomorrow, and today's military supplies must be properly handled, Chen Zilong, you follow the general to the arsenal, count the weapons and armor, especially a million bows and arrows, take inventory, I ask for a bow and arrow!"

Chen Zilong hurriedly bowed down and said, "The student takes the order!"

Wang Zhizheng nodded and then held Jiang Nai's hand and said: "Brother Shiheng (Jiang Naizi Shiheng), this mission is very special, our Governor's Mansion is not ready-made, and even the governance of Datong is not in our hands at present! We don't have time to prepare slowly, we have to build while fighting!" Therefore, you must be in step with me, and we must not take the wild boar skin (Nurhachi's Chinese name, which later became the collective name of Dolgon, Huang Taiji), we must not take it lightly, we must fight together, and we must strictly implement my strategic plan, otherwise we will be beheaded and shown to the public! There must be no negligence, this time to deal with the Tatars, this is the first time that the general has confronted the Tatars head-on, if we lose, we will not be able to stand out again!"

As soon as Wang Zhizheng said this, everyone was a little nervous, dealing with Tatars, this was indeed the first time!

Huang Zongxi asked: "Guogong, it is better to secondment Ryosuke, he has fought more than 100 battles with the Tartars, and he is quite experienced." It's really a bit condescending to be in charge of the Jinyi Guard now!"

Wang Zhizheng thought about it for a while: If Liangfu controls Jinyiwei, then Jinyiwei can be used by me, at least not by the Donglin opposition, which is why he has not proposed to the emperor to borrow Liangfu.

Wang Zhizheng said: "Taichong, the emperor employs people, has its own reason, since there is no good help, it must have a deep meaning, good help is my nephew, and it is inconvenient for me to ask the emperor for him." Let's start a business with me this time!"

Wang Zhizheng's speed is quite fast, the arsenal and the Praetorian Guard are often cooperative departments, and the arsenal department is subordinate to the military department, and is in charge of the name Zeng Shaowu. This Zeng Shaowu is the brother-in-law of Zhang Fengqin, the former commander of the Praetorian Guard, and the brother-in-law of Emperor Chongzhen, and the uncle of Wang Zhizheng. His wife is Wang Zhizheng's aunt and Emperor Chongzhen's aunt. Therefore, he is not only a confidant of Wang Zhizheng, but also a confidant of Emperor Chongzhen.

Wang Zhizheng and Jiang Nai's entered the Arsenal Division, only to see Zeng Shaowu striding over and asking Wang Zhizheng for peace: Grandpa Guo.

Wang Zhizheng said with a smile: "Uncle, don't call it that, it's very uncomfortable." ”

Zeng Shaowu smiled and said: "Relatives are relatives, respect and humility cannot be messed up." Grandpa, the million bows and arrows you asked for have made me miserable, and I haven't slept for a quarter of an hour with my craftsmen in the past few days. Finally got the job done!"

Wang Zhizheng said with admiration: "Uncle, you are overworked, after I go on the expedition, you can rest and rest!"

Wang Zhizheng only then discovered that Zeng Shaowu's eyes were as black as a giant panda, his face was also black and yellow, he was already thin, and now he looked like a sharp-beaked monkey gills, a forty-year-old person, only Wang Zhizheng was seven years old. He looks like he's fifty years old.

Zeng Shaowu's fleshy and bloodshot eyes yawned, then pointed to the arsenal and said: "Guogong, you don't know, during this time, Hong Chengchou in northern Shaanxi asked me for two million arrows, and he was more ruthless than you, Yang He, Cao Wenzhao asked me for 500,000 arrows." In the past few days, I have only been making bows and arrows, and I have applied to the household department for two thousand taels of silver. This time you said that I applied for the finance of the Commercial Tax Department, and I applied for 150,000 taels from the emperor, and the emperor allocated it to me without blinking an eyelid, and the finances of the past two years have indeed been much more generous, which is also the credit of your grandfather!"

Wang Zhizheng smiled and said proudly: "Uncle, don't mention this matter to me again, because of this, your precious brother, don't ignore me now!"

Zeng Shaowu's younger brother Zeng Shaowen, who is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry of Nanzhili, also fell out with Wang Zhizheng because of the Jinling incident and has not been in contact with him so far.

Zeng Shaowu waved his hand and said, "Regardless of him, his pattern is too narrow!"

Then Zeng Shaowu walked in front and took Wang Zhizheng and Jiang Nai to take a look at the bow and arrow, Wang Zhizheng nodded and said: "You don't need to look more, Brother Jiang, you will immediately send a heavy army with grain, grass and bows and arrows to go straight to Pucheng." ”

Jiang Nai nodded, turned and retreated.

Wang Zhizheng said to Zeng Shaowu: "Uncle, you have made great contributions this time, and the emperor will definitely be rewarded! This time, I am short of time and have a heavy task, so I can't tell you too much, and when I return triumphantly, it is up to you to drink!"

Zeng Shaowu made a long gesture to the end: "Grandpa, my subordinates wish you a triumphant return!"

Wang Zhizheng nodded, then turned around and rode on his war horse, and immediately rushed back to the Forbidden Army Mansion!
