Chapter 245: The Biggest Military Leader of the Ming Dynasty

Zuo Mengmei and Xu Changqing know.

She is also one of the many flowers in this era at the end of the Ming Dynasty, not only with outstanding appearance, but also with a very high level of talent.

It's just that, due to various reasons, her reputation is far less widespread than that of Gu Hengbo and their Qin Huai Bayan.

If you follow the trajectory of history, it is not surprising that she will be captured in the battle of Zhuxian Town and become Li Zicheng's trophy.

then became a tool for Li Zicheng to threaten Zuo Liangyu, and in the end, he became a victim of this struggle, and finally married Wang Si, the leader of Li Zicheng's own army.

A generation of beauties has since annihilated the mortal dust.

Xu Changqing didn't expect that at this time, Zuo Mengeng's guy actually offered Zuo Mengmei as a bargaining chip, could it be that his reputation is really so unbearable...?

Seeing that Xu Changqing didn't say anything, soon, the beads of sweat on Zuo Menggeng's forehead couldn't stop seeping out.

If this matter fails, he will not only lose the trust of his father Zuo Liangyu, but Zuo Mengmei, who took the lead in proposing this matter to him, will probably also be disappointed in him.

But at this time, he can't be too active in this kind of thing, for a while, not to mention how aggrieved he is.

Xu Changqing noticed the change in Zuo Mengeng, and the corners of his mouth curled.

There are beautiful women sent to the door, don't be stupid, let alone a daughter from a wealthy family like Zuo Mengmei, the dowry will definitely not be bad.

But at this time, Xu Changqing also saw that Zuo Mengeng was very weak-hearted.

This also means that Zuo Liangyu is likely to have an unclear attitude towards this matter, and it is Zuo Mengeng who is gambling!

In this way, if he doesn't get more things from Zuo Menggeng's side, Xu Changqing is really in vain.

Speaking of which, Zuo Mengeng is also a character.

Although he did not have the ambition of his son Zuo Liangyu, he was quite stable and had a very accurate vision, and finally preserved their Zuo family's family business and died a good death.

It is important to know that at all times, the fight is the most cruel.

Even if Zuo Mengeng's gang is extremely inauthentic and can be called a national scourge, from his point of view, he is a victor and proves his ability.

At this time, he was able to volunteer to come over to discuss an alliance, which also proved his ability and ambition.

Seeing that Zuo Mengeng was about to be unable to bear it, Xu Changqing smiled, no longer oppressed him, and said with a smile: "This matter, you can!" When the main force of the general of the thief arrives on the battlefield, our model army will provide support in all aspects, and in the war, we will also advance and retreat together! ”

"Uncle is wise!"

Zuo Mengeng couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Uncle, rest assured, this matter, the lowly will report to the father as soon as possible, and when Mengmei passes the door, the lowly will try its best to prepare Mengmei's dowry." At the same time, he is a lowly individual and is willing to give Mengmei a ...... 100,000 taels! ”

Xu Changqing laughed: "Brother Zuo is worthy of being the dragon and phoenix among people, and Ben Bo will not forget Brother Zuo's affection." However, Ben Bo has one thing, I hope Brother Zuo can plan it properly! ”

Zuo Mengeng was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly smiled cautiously: "Uncle has something to say, he will go to the soup and fight for his humble duties, and he will not give up!" ”

"Simple."

Xu Changqing deliberately showed an obscene gaze: "Ben Bo hopes that Brother Zuo can bring Miss Zuo to Ben Bo within ten days!" ”

"Forehead ......"

Zuo Mengeng was a little stunned for a while, but he didn't expect Xu Changqing to be in such a hurry......

But he quickly reacted, and said with a smile: "Uncle, in this matter, I must do my best." ”

Xu Changqing laughed: "Brother Zuo did this, after this war, I will give 200,000 taels of dowry, and first settle the family affairs!" ”

Zuo Mengeng looked at Xu Changqing's eyes, and soon understood what Xu Changqing meant, the 200,000 taels of dowry, 100,000 taels were his.

Busy said: "Uncle, that humble post will not stay here for a long time, and I will definitely try my best to complete my uncle's orders." ”

……

Watching Zuo Mengeng leave, Xu Changqing narrowed his eyes slightly.

At this time, Xu Changqing also truly realized the benefits of his uncle's name, and of course, his bloodline.

Although Zuo Liangyu was on the side of the army at this time, he was almost the same as Li Tang's temperance envoy, and it was difficult for the court to restrain him, but in the final analysis, this guy was still not right.

Even though he was unruly, he would never dare to openly rebel against the court in the open.

The imperial court did not dare to tear its face, and this time the boss used to be kind to Zuo Liangyu, but he would never give it to Lord Zuo Liangyu.

This is doomed, the Zuo family can only wait, and there must not be much sense of security.

It must be known that the situation in Liaodong at this time is completely another dimension compared with history, and the Qing army basically has no possibility of entering the customs.

It is not surprising that Zuo Mengeng made this choice at this time.

I'm afraid that Zuo Liangyu, an old fox, even if he doesn't admit it on his lips, he acquiesces in his heart.

Because once a compromise is reached with Xu Changqing, it will not only be a matter of Zuo Mengmei's victim, but also a debt involved.

To a large extent, it is almost equivalent to the money that the Zuo family owes Xu Changqing, how can Xu Changqing not stand aside with them?

And once the Xu family and the Zuo family merge, this Central Plains battlefield is undoubtedly the final say of these two families.

Although Zuo Mengeng did not talk about Zuo Mengmei's identity after entering the Xu family just now, with the passage of time and the end of the war in the Central Plains, their Zuo family will inevitably control a greater initiative.

The little abacus of these two men is shrewd.

On the contrary, the benefits of this matter far outweigh the disadvantages for Xu Changqing.

Not only can the overall situation of the battle of Zhu Xianzhen be preserved, but also the beauty can be embraced, and a lot of Zuo Mengmei's dowry can be harvested out of thin air.

Even if you have to take some political risks, as long as you can win the battle, it is not a problem at all.

Thinking about it, Xu Changqing shook his head with a smile.

Before I knew it, I had lived the most hated life!

However, it really doesn't feel bad......

……

Zuo Menggeng is extremely efficient.

Five days later, Zuo Mengmei was brought to Xu Changqing's camp.

Zuo Mengmei didn't disappoint Xu Changqing, although she was slightly worse than Li Youwei and Yishui Girl, she could at least score more than 95 points.

Moreover, it is like a star altar honey in the island country. Sister......

And with the arrival of Zuo Mengmei, Zuo Liangyu's follow-up main force has also accelerated a lot, and the main force of Jin Shenghuan's department has arrived, crossed the Shahe River with the help of Xu Changqing, and began to seize the favorable terrain around Zhuxian Town, and camped close to Xu Changqing.

The Wandering Army did not overreact to this, and as if they were afraid of the Ming army, the defense line began to retreat.

The next day, Yang Wenyue, the governor of Baoding, also rushed to the battlefield, they only had more than 10,000 men, and the soldiers could probably account for more than a third.

But the Displaced People's Army, like this, did not take the initiative to harass, but further narrowed the defensive line.

This made Yang Wenyue's mind also settled, and he soon occupied a part of the favorable terrain on the west side of Zhuxian Town.

The situation seems to be all in favor of the Ming army.

……

The night was getting deeper.

Countless bonfires were rising, and crackling sounds could be heard everywhere in the fires with pine and cedar wood as the main fuel.

Although there is another Yiren by his side, at this time, Xu Changqing has no chance to steal incense and jade......

Although Chu Xue did not express anything to Xu Changqing verbally, she used her practical actions to resist Xu Changqing. System.

Every day, in addition to helping Xu Changqing prepare meals, he always keeps a distance from Xu Changqing.

At first, Zuo Mengmei wanted to get closer to Xu Changqing and enhance the relationship between the two, but as she gradually learned Chu Xue's identity, she could only restrain herself.

has been sent under the fence since she was a child, Zuo Mengmei obviously knows the way of survival, she doesn't want to offend Xu Changqing's back house as soon as she comes up.

For this, although Xu Changqing was a little helpless, he was also happy to be quiet, and he could focus all his energy on the war in front of him.

At least, Zuo Mengmei is already by her side at this time, and she will no longer become Li Zicheng's spoils of war as in history.

In the distance, countless fires were also lit in the battle formation of the Wandering People's Army, and from time to time I saw a figure patrolling.

Their defense is even worse than that of the Model Army.

This also made Xu Changqing more sure of his judgment!

This battle is by no means easy to fight!

At this time, the strategic goal of the Liumin Army was basically clear, they wanted to encircle and suppress the main force of the official army, and the strength of the Ming Army in front of them was not taken into their eyes at all.

Fortunately, the current situation is still under control, and the Ming army has occupied a lot of favorable terrain around Zhuxian Town, which can already support the main forces of Ding Qirui's troops and Zuo Liangyu's main forces.

As for Sun Chuanting, Xu Changqing was already completely sure at this time, this master, I'm afraid he didn't want to get involved in the mud of Zhu Xianzhen from the beginning.

By the time he came, the daylily would be cold.

However, an agreement has been reached with Zuo Liangyu, and according to Zuo Liangyu's strength, the Ming army already has the capital to face the exile army.

Thinking about it, Xu Changqing looked at the isolated auxiliary tent next to his big tent not far away, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

The two women were already living in a tent at this time, so they should go back and wash and sleep.

……

Three days later, the main force of Zuo Liangyu's troops arrived on the other side of the Shahe River, and Xu Changqing had already mobilized a large number of various ships from the surrounding area to assist Zuo Liangyu's main force to cross the river.

However, these nearly 200,000 people, a total of less than 500 small wrecked ships, will take at least five or six days.

Fortunately, it is not yet the flood season at this time, and once you wait until the flood season, things will be troublesome.

This also made Xu Changqing understand that this battle still had to be fought as soon as possible, otherwise, it would drag on to the eighth. During the flood season in September, Zuo Liangyu's supply was going to have a big problem.

In the evening of the same day, Xu Changqing also met Zuo Liangyu, a cheap old man, for the first time.

At the same time, there is also the real father-in-law Qiu Lei.

Qiu Lei's guy is also fateful, and he successfully survived the catastrophe of the year, although he didn't bring Zuo Mengmei back, but with the help of Zuo Liangyu, he has become a deputy general, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

At this time, Qiu Lei's gaze at Xu Changqing was slightly concealed, but it was obviously much hotter than Zuo Liangyu.

can find Xu Changqing, his son-in-law, he is undoubtedly extremely happy for his daughter.

"Zuo Shuai, I have admired the name for a long time, I can see you today, and the younger generation is honored."

On the south bank of the Shahe River, Xu Changqing personally came over to greet Zuo Liangyu and his party, which can be said to have given Zuo Liangyu enough face.

Seeing Xu Changqing's attitude at this time, Zuo Liangyu's mood was also very good, his face was bright, and he laughed and said: "Uncle Zhongyi, you are very loving." When I saw you, the old man knew that he was old. Uncle, please. ”

Although Zuo Liangyu is arrogant and rampant, he himself is quite soft, dressed very plainly, only wearing a gray linen dress at this time, and his hair is already slightly gray, looking much older than his actual age.

After all, he is a person who is about to know the destiny of heaven.

In his early years, he had no foundation, and he was polished in Liaodong, and he basically spent these years in continuous battles, and his physical condition did not seem to be very good.

He looks like a tall old man who doesn't look very good.

However, who would have thought that the tall old man in front of him who wore a hat like an old fisherman was the biggest military leader of the Ming Dynasty at this time?

Only when his eyes really look at people can people feel his majesty and the calmness that has gone through all the vicissitudes.

After crossing the river, Xu Changqing had already prepared a grand banquet on the dock here, Yang Wenyue and several of his subordinates had been waiting here for a long time, and the group was seated with laughter.
