Lu Xiangsheng said to leave, and the army set off immediately, reflecting two problems.

First, he is always ready to be the king of Qin. The second is that the Tianxiong Army created by him is very mobile.

With the roar of horses' hooves, Lu Xiangsheng led more than 10,000 cavalry day and night, and arrived in Changping in just over a day.

The other 30,000-odd infantry troops, led by Xuan, the general soldiers Hu Dawei and Yang Guozhu, were expected to arrive in three days.

Changping is known as the "pillow of the Beijing Division", and it is the location of the royal mausoleum, which cannot be missed.

Therefore, there are many armies here, and all the strategic places in the vicinity are occupied by large armies, and the tents on the outskirts are lined up, and the war horses are in groups. At night, the horses neighed constantly, the drums and horns exchanged bells, and the guards were heavily guarded.

After Lu Xiangsheng stopped the deployment of the troops, he summoned his cronies and important generals to the hall of the governor's office to discuss letting the troops rest for a while and be ready for battle at any time.

At this time, the herald came, and the national director of soldiers and horses Gao Qiqian paid a visit.

Lu Xiangsheng frowned slightly, the sun came out of the west, and the arrogant and domineering Gao Qiqian actually came to visit him, how can he think about it?

However, Lu Xiangsheng still asked people to welcome him into the governor's office. After all, no matter what, the two may still have to work together as a team in the future.

Gao Qiqian is a burly middle-aged man with no beard. Very well maintained, ruddy complexion, and looks like he is only in his early thirties.

After the two sides sat down after greeting each other, Lu Xiangsheng retreated left and right, and asked tentatively:

"It seems that Your Majesty's fighting spirit is very sharp, we can only live up to our expectations if we charge into battle and kill the enemy to serve the country, as for how to kill the enemy, it just so happens that the prison army is coming, would you like to hear about it?"

"Lu Du, field warfare is not the director of our army."

Gao Qiqian replied slowly.

"The generals of Guanning and Xuanda are accustomed to field battles, and while their morale is at present, they should seek out the enemy and fight to relieve the danger of the Beijing division."

Lu Xiangsheng was eager to fight, and he had already unconsciously said his thoughts.

"Don't rush into battle. Now that my troops are weak, how can I fight? ”

Gao Qiqian asked with a frown.

Lu Xiangsheng shook his head and said helplessly: "At present, the patient is not weak in troops, but the imperial court is not determined!"

There were no less than 50,000 reinforcements from Guanning, Xuan, Da, and Shanxi, and tens of thousands of soldiers from the three major battalions could line up on the outskirts of the city in addition to defending the city. As long as the imperial court is determined to speak and encourage the soldiers, even if the three battalions are not used, the 50,000 soldiers of the king can be a battle.

In addition, the enemy attacked on light horsemen, and went deep into Kisuke, so he had to get food on the spot. If Your Majesty sends an edict: Strictly order the county of Kifuzhou, the strong wall will clear the wilderness, so that the enemy will not be able to eat.

The officials who defend the land will live and die with the city, and those who abandon the city and flee will not be killed. The strong army commanded by Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting can be sent to help.

The people of Ji Fu have been ravaged by the Tartars repeatedly, and they are full of righteous indignation, and they are full of hatred, as long as the court is slightly persuaded by the court, 100,000 people will gather soon! ”

"Lu Du is right, but the food is difficult."

Gao Qiqian shook his head, the smile on his face was very weird, I don't know whether it was a bitter smile or a mockery.

"In the capital and Kifuzhou County, there are many wealthy gentry and households, and they can advocate donations to save the country's urgent needs."

Lu Xiangsheng still did not forgive this matter.

"Lu Du said it so lightly!"

In the end, Gao Qiqian sneered and teased.

That's true, but it's exciting.

Lu Xiangsheng flicked his sleeves up, pressed the hilt of the knife, and said loudly: "Director Gao is afraid of the enemy like a tiger, and the governor has no choice but to deal with the enemy alone!" ”

Gao Qiqian also said arrogantly: "It's okay if Lu Du is willing to fight the enemy alone, but it's just a man...... How to ...... with the Emperor"

Lu Xiangsheng resolutely cut off Gao Qiqian's words and said, "Okay, this governor understands what you mean, no need to say it."

The people and horses of Xuanda and Shanxi were originally brought by me, and they are still under my command. I don't want any of Guan Ning's elites, and they are commanded by the superintendent army himself. ”

"Is that good?" Gao Qiqian asked deliberately, in fact, he was very satisfied in his heart.

"The division of troops is weak, which is certainly not good for war. But today there is no better way to do it. ”

Lu Xiangsheng has a very tough personality.

"Then we have to divide the troops, when will we divide them?" There seems to be a sense of impatience in Gao Qidive.

"This governor will pay tribute today, and as soon as His Majesty's decree arrives, it will be divided immediately."

Lu Xiangsheng replied stiffly.

"That's good. Let's go to Beijing now and wait for the edict. No more bothering. Gao Qiqian stood up and said in an official tone, "I also do things for the emperor, and I hope Lu Du will bear with me." ”

"Well said."

Lu Xiangsheng sent Gao Qiqian out of the gate, looked at him and got on the horse, and said goodbye.

The next morning, Lu Xiangsheng summoned the generals to Xingyuan to listen to his lecture. He urged everyone to serve the country loyally and not be discouraged because of the small number of soldiers and the loneliness.

As soon as the lecture was finished, Yang Sichang came to Changping.

He welcomed Yang Sichang into the hall, and after serving tea, he asked straight to the point: "Do the Pavilion Elder and His Majesty know about the division of troops between the lowly post and the senior director?" ”
