Chapter 783: Struggle for power and profit
On the first day of the first month of August, the wind and the sun were beautiful, the white clouds under the blue sky were long, the cattle and sheep that were originally everywhere were gone, and several rolling dragons were heading in the direction of the Moren Royal Court. Eighty miles away from the royal court, Su Bu Naying led a team of indifferent people to seek peace to see Emperor Zheng Shi Fangzhen.
Shi Fangzhen rode on his horse and marched with the army, and when he heard the report, he laughed loudly and said, "Go and tell the messenger of the desert that this place is not far from the royal court, and it is not too late to come and sue for peace when I enter the golden tent of the royal court." Command the three armies, speed up, I will reward the meritorious soldiers in the royal court. I heard that the Desert Saintess was good at singing and dancing, so I asked her to dance for me at that time. "
There was a thunderous roar of joy, and the speed of the march of the army increased. Wang Keming was behind Shi Fangzhen, looking at the proud Son of Heaven, who was beating his horse and whipping, and couldn't help but remind: "Long live, those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, and the indifferent people will never be willing to fail, long live must not be careless." "
"I know that the desert people want to delay the march of the army by suing for peace, how can I be fooled." Shi Fangzhen said with a smile: "But what the marshal said is reasonable, the closer you get to the royal court, the more careful you must be, there are still more than 200,000 soldiers and horses in the desert who can still fight, how to use the troops is the responsibility of the marshal, I don't care." It was only eighty miles from the royal court, and I hoped to see the golden horde of the royal court as soon as possible. "
Jiang Anyi was in a dream for the past two days, he heard Shi Chongren tell him privately that the Son of Heaven was going to make a big seal of merit after conquering the Moren Wangting, and he was named "Pingshan Marquis", grinning from time to time, the scholar Wanhu Hou, the goal of his life was reached before he reached his early thirties, and then he didn't seem to know what to do.
At three o'clock in Shenzheng, the sun was still some distance away from setting, and Wang Keming ordered the army to camp. This place is fifty miles away from the royal court, and Wang Keming plans to use this place as a base for attacking the Moren royal court, and the distance between it and the royal court will be the battlefield of the decisive battle.
The battle has been fought so far, the Zheng army is only less than 800,000 troops left, Wang Keming will organize the army into four groups, Miao Tieshan, Qi Xinwen, Zhu Jinfeng each led 200,000 horses into an arch to protect the Chinese army, behind the Chinese army is the baggage, the servant, the army is condensed into a fist, occupying a radius of more than 30 miles, as far as the eye can see, the camp tent is next to the camp tent, the sound of horns, shouts, horses' hooves, the whole camp is like a lively market.
Wang Keming did not dare to slack off at all, and after settling down the Son of Heaven, he immediately ordered Huang Xi, the envoy of the Military Intelligence Department, to send people to find out the news of the desert people, and then rushed to the camp ten miles away to inspect and discuss the battle plan with Miao Tieshan and others.
Jiang Anyi's camp tent is not far from the right side of the Chinese army's imperial tent, which is the residence of King Luo Huai. Shi Chongren's big tent was several times wider than that of ordinary sergeants, with felt blankets on the ground, tables and chairs, and sandalwood on one corner of the tent.
"Wonderful, Jiang Shi's sentence 'push the hub out of the fierce general, and even the flag on the battlefield. The military power rushed into the desert, and the murderous spirit was overwhelming, and the tense atmosphere of the battlefield was vividly put on the paper, and the father and emperor would definitely applaud when he saw it. Master Jiang, I've been learning poems from you for so long, why can't I write them, or give me these few sentences, just say that I wrote them, I wonder if my father will believe it? "
Shi Chongren took a few pages of paper, chattering and pacing in the tent, Jiang Anyi didn't answer him, stroked the short beard on his chin and muttered, is it a sad autumn moon or a withered autumn moon, will the poem of triumph feel a little sad, and will the bow shoot the king of Khan exaggerated, after all, the heads of some small tribes are killed?
army
The residence of the intelligence department is in front of the imperial tent, Huang Xi recalled that those Jianghu people were encouraged by themselves and couldn't help but feel a little proud, these reckless people were willing to fight with their lives for the fame they promised, it was sad and lamentable, even if they had the life to come back and reward their merits, they were just some petty officials of seven or eight grades, and they would succeed in ten thousand bones, and these Jianghu men were destined to achieve their own dry bones. This time he won the expedition to the north, and as a military intelligence envoy, he didn't know what reward he could get, maybe Feng Zhong, the old thing, would give way to himself.
Huang Xi's eyes became hot, if the eunuch could be knighted, he should be able to get an earl, Guangzong Yaozu, Guangmen lintel. In an instant, he thought that he was not Zhang Bojin back then, but the eunuch Huang Xi, Huang Xi's face became pale, his eyes became vicious, and he gritted his teeth and hissed: "Jiang Anyi, if I don't kill you, how can I stop this hatred." "
Jiang Jian lifted the curtain and came in, Huang Xi whispered to himself that he couldn't hide his ears, so he didn't know how to bow his hand and said, "My lord, the spies of the Military Intelligence Department have gone to inquire about the news in batches." "
Huang Xi took a sip of tea, and when he put down the teacup, his face was already as usual, and he asked unhurriedly: "How many people are left in the Military Intelligence Department?" "
More than 3,000 Jianghu people who went out with the army in the Northern Expedition joined the Military Intelligence Department, and nearly half of the casualties in the confrontation with the desert people remained, and the rest was only more than 1,700 people.
Jiang Jian was puzzled in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "There are still 1,786 spies in the Military Intelligence Department, and I will send 1,200 people, hoping that after the war, the adults can fight for these Jianghu men to make more contributions, and they will not sacrifice their lives to serve the country in vain." "
Huang Xi said: "Don't worry, the person who worked hard for our family will naturally not be able to treat him badly, our family is a eunuch, it is useless to take credit, and naturally I will speak for you in front of the Long Live Lord." Long Live Lord intends to keep the Military Intelligence Department and become a separate system in the army, Long Live Lord intends to let me continue to be the military intelligence secretary, the military intelligence secretary is the official rank on the fourth grade, and the Zhongshu Shilang and the Ministry Shilang are at the same level, and the military rank is the loyal general. "
Seeing the flash of joy on Huang Xi's face, Jiang Jian congratulated: "Congratulations to your Excellency for your success and longevity." Following Huang Xi all year round, Jiang Jian also learned a few words of compliment.
Huang Xi said with a smile: "Qingshi Liufang? Hehehehehe. "
Jiang Jian couldn't figure it out, he didn't know if he had said the wrong thing, so he simply kept silent.
Huang Xi suppressed his laughter and said indifferently: "The Military Intelligence Department will set up two deputy envoys, who are General Xuanwu from the fourth grade. Jiang Jian, can you be intentional? "
Jiang Jian was overjoyed, bowed down and said: "Thank you for your cultivation, Jiang is willing to drive for adults." "
"There are many monks and few porridges, and I don't know how many people are staring at the position of the deputy military intelligence envoy, even those old commanders in the army also want to take the military intelligence department in their hands, even if I have the heart to speak for you, I am afraid that people will speak lightly, and the key is to rely on yourself." Huang Xi picked up the teacup again, slowly and logically.
Jiang Jian said: "The subordinate is a rough man, please make it clear." "
Huang Xi smiled lightly, looked at Jiang Jian, and said, "Whether you Jiang Jian is a rough person or not, our family knows very well, so there is no need to say anything." Zheng Mo's final battle is imminent, if you want to sit in the position of deputy military intelligence envoy, it depends on who has the most credit, no matter how high your Jiang Jian's kung fu is, you have no chance to go to the battlefield to capture the flag, so it depends on the intelligence of the Mo people. You also saw it just now, the Kang Shaomen master of the Wind and Thunder Gate took all the people out of the sect, and he didn't think about it the most
Give it a back. Kang Qianfeng's qualifications are far inferior to yours, but the credit for the Northern Expedition Wind Thunder Gate is all on him, the young master, and the young master Kang is catching up, and it is not far from you. "
Jiang Jian's face froze, although the Liuhuamen he was in was one of the top ten sects, stronger than the Fenglei Sect, but Kang Qianfeng was the master of the Shaomen, and the whole sect fully supported him, Kang Qianfeng was willing to spend money, and he gathered a group of people in the Military Intelligence Division, but he was only a disciple of Liuhuamen, the master left the sect at an early age, and Liuhuamen's support for himself was limited, which was inferior in comparison, if he was not a cronie of Lord Huang, I am afraid that he would be surpassed by Kang Qianfeng.
"Our family doesn't hide it from you, Fengleimen has a close relationship with King Chu'an, and the Lord Kang Shaomen will naturally speak for him if he has made meritorious contributions, and our family is the master of King Chu'an, so naturally he will not refute the prince's face." Huang Xi is not salty or light.
Huang Xi didn't like Kang Qianfeng, although this young man was very respectful in front of him, but the jade hope that climbed up on his body couldn't hide it, how could such a person be willing to become his subordinate.
For the prince, whether it is Kang Qianfeng or Jiang Jian, they are just useful minions, and whichever one is capable can be used, but for Huang Xi, Jiang Jian has the same enemy as him, and after years of running-in, he is much more useful than Kang Qianfeng, and Kang Qianfeng was picked up by Shen Wenqing, so it may be a trouble in the future.
Jiang Jian arched his hand and said: "My lord, my subordinates understand, so I will set off to investigate the news of the desert people, and I will not disappoint my lord." "
When it was dark, Jiang Jian rode through Qi Xinwen's camp and galloped towards the north.
As soon as the news that Emperor Zheng refused to see him and threatened to surrender to the Golden Horde in the royal court, there was indignation in the Golden Horde, and Kun Bo shouted: "The dog emperor is so rude, Lao Tzu has to screw his head off." "
Li Man also said with a cold face: "Zheng Jun is arrogant and arrogant, don't you know that the arrogant soldiers will be defeated, according to Mr. Qu's clever plan, they will definitely be able to defeat Zheng Ren." "
Enhan said: "The Zheng army is stationed fifty miles away and poses for a decisive battle. Our army wants to paralyze the Zheng army, send people to make a false appearance of digging a river to block it, and let the various departments step up the delivery of hay. Also, Zheng Jun has a master to investigate the military situation, and King Lao Fa sent capable people to intercept and kill, so Zheng Jun cannot be allowed to find out the true intentions of our army. "
Ba Duojie said: "General rest assured, I will let Benhu take the Venerable of the Sect out of the city to meet the enemy, and the thirty-six iron attendants under my seat will go together, and more than 700 people who are outstanding in martial arts in the Sect will also go together." "
Enhan said with a smile: "The guards under the throne of the law are extraordinary, and there will be no way for them to escape from the secret agents of the Zheng people. "
The thirty-six iron attendants under the throne of the Dharma are fanatical believers selected from the sect, and in addition to practicing martial arts and penance, they do not even deal with teaching affairs very well, and often travel thousands of miles of penance without taking anything with them, fighting horse bandits, wolves and bears along the way, and also going through the baptism of wind, frost, rain and snow before they can forge a body of steel.
These servants are only sent when His Holiness encounters something tricky, and these people only respect His Holiness's orders, and even the Venerable Master cannot command them. Enhan once fought with an iron servant, and after ten moves, he took the initiative to admit defeat, and those iron servants were ruthless, and ordinary battles were like life and death fights, like murderous demons.
There was no moon in the sky, darkness shrouded the grassland, countless black shadows fought in the night, and the howl of wolves was interrupted by screams.
