[1023 Fan Wencheng came to persuade him to surrender]
Wei Bao smiled: "Thank you uncle for your love and care for me, it's okay, I'm so happy today, and I said that I want to use a big bowl, so I will use the amount of three bowls I grasp, and I will work with you for two bowls!" ”
Then the crowd applauded again.
After drinking two bowls of wine, Wei Bao said, "I really can't drink anymore." You can drink as much as you want, and when you are tired of playing, you can stay here for one night, as long as you don't delay three days, the military and civilian materials from Ningyuan City and Juehua Island will be transferred to Gaotai Fort and Qiantun Fort. ”
Everyone was silent again when they heard this, and Wei Bao didn't want to pour cold water on the high atmosphere, but it didn't mean to remind him again.
In order to elevate his status among the crowd and achieve the goal of separating Wei Bao from the generals and officials, Yuan Chonghuan couldn't help but say: "If the lord leaves like this, the banquet will not be lively, and today the lord is the protagonist." I have heard for a long time that the lord is both civil and military, so it is better to take advantage of today's lively atmosphere, which general and the lord have two tricks, which will open everyone's eyes, isn't it a talk between the military and the United States? ”
As soon as Yuan Chonghuan said this, several generals immediately applauded.
Passing the trick competition, especially taking advantage of the wine in the wine field, is a habit of the northern border army.
Wei Bao was unhappy in his heart, it doesn't matter if Lao Tzu is an ordinary general or official, what is Lao Tzu's identity? The second-grade member of the imperial court who has just issued an order, the dignified Marquis of Ming!
What are you? Who is qualified to fight Lao Tzu?
"This is fresh, I'm a person from Tanhualang, what kind of martial arts do I know? How? Senior Brother Yuan, you ask this, do you want to teach me, or which general wants to teach me? Wei Bao asked.
When everyone heard Wei Bao's words, they didn't dare to coax anymore, thinking that this short man Yuan Hei really didn't know what the sky was high and thick, so he had to make a good move.
"I heard that the lord is both civil and military, and I want the lord to show his hand in front of the generals, there is no other meaning, the lord must not misunderstand." Yuan Chonghuan is a typical wall-to-wall grass, seeing that it seems that the method of provocation has not worked, it seems that no one in the entire Liaodong will dare to challenge Lord Wei's authority anymore.
Originally, Yuan Chonghuan felt that with Man Gui's martial arts and Man Gui's violent temper, as well as Zu Dashou, who likes to be in the limelight, it was possible to take this opportunity to beat Wei Bao to extinguish Wei Bao's prestige and raise their personal prestige, what a good opportunity this is.
Wei Bao smiled slightly, and said to Yuan Chonghuan: "It seems that no one in this Liaodong dares to teach me a lesson except for you Yuan Ningqiandao, how about it?" Ning Qiandao? You're going to deal with the Governor? ”
When Yuan Chonghuan heard this, he smiled embarrassedly, and when he heard Wei Bao call himself Ning Qiandao's official position, and no longer call himself a senior brother, he knew that Wei Bao was angry, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I can't do it, how can I have those two times, let me mess with the morale of the army." ”
Wei Bao smiled: "Then you can go and quickly improve the morale of the army." ”
Wei Bao arched his hand and said to everyone: "Everyone drink slowly, I have the habit of taking a nap." ”
What you want is this fan, and those who are big guys have to be casual, and they can come late and leave first, so as to reflect the style of the big guys.
Everyone hurriedly saluted, and they all said to let Lord Wei go to rest.
"Sir, what if the people of Juehua Island refuse to leave? The guard general of Juehua Island has just passed away from illness, and now he is a few partial generals and has no head. Yuan Chonghuan asked.
Wei Bao frowned: "Didn't I already say it very clearly just now?" Isn't it enough to leave this matter to you, and let the four generals Man Gui, Zuo Fu, Zu Dashou and Zhu Mei assist you? Which one of you can't control a few partial generals? If you don't have the ability to do it, then tell the old man to return to his hometown! I can approve you now on behalf of the court!" ”
Yuan Chonghuan was taken aback, knowing that Wei Bao was a little troubled with himself, but he didn't expect Wei Bao to suddenly be so faceless, and he couldn't get off the stage so much? Isn't this a chase?
If you are a hot-tempered person, you will definitely hang up and leave.
But although Yuan Chonghuan's temper is hot, and his skin is thick and black, he is addicted to officials, and he is really reluctant to lose the good future of the imperial court, he is only in his early forties, so he can't just go back to his hometown to teach.
Wei Bao looked at Yuan Chonghuan, "What about you, did you hear that?" Do you have what it takes to do this? As a happy word, I don't have as much free as you, and time is precious. ”
"Yes, the next official can do it." Yuan Chonghuan's black face was flushed, as if burning charcoal, and he leaned over and replied respectfully.
Wei Bao smiled contemptuously at Yuan Chonghuan, then changed his face to the others, smiled and waved his hand to everyone: "Everyone eat and drink well, I'll go sleep for a while." ”
Everyone hastened to salute again, each more respectful than the other.
Everyone thinks that Wei Bao is sixteen years old, and he can be a second-class member at a young age, and he is a lord, and he is indeed based on his ability, just by virtue of Wei Bao's affinity for a while, and coldness for a while.
In fact, it's nothing, as long as you mix in the officialdom of the capital for a period of time and go to the countryside, you can give people this feeling.
Wei Bao's set, compared to Wei Zhongxian and those cabinet ministers, is a big deal.
When Wei Bao woke up, it was already dusk, and a large group of officials and generals did not dare to eat and drink well as Wei Bao said, and as soon as Wei Bao left, they hurried out of the city, and with Wei Bao, there was indeed a lot of pressure.
In this regard, the 6,000 Bao army completed the change of defense to Ningyuan City in only one afternoon.
"I don't know if Yuan Chonghuan and they can successfully persuade the soldiers and civilians of Juehua Island to withdraw, more than 20,000 people, more than 200,000 stone grain, once it falls into the hands of Jiannu, it will be very troublesome." Wang Qiuya said while helping Lord Wei get dressed.
"No problem." Wei Bao analyzed: "I have already ordered in public, and I have also told Gao Di and Wang Zhichen, my ministers and ministers have orders, and there are official documents to prove it, I am definitely not responsible, if they don't withdraw, they will find their own death." Besides, those are all soldiers and civilians in Liaodong, Gaotaibao and Qiantunbao are also the land of Liaodong, I asked them to retreat for their good, they don't lack food, they don't lack shelter, why don't they withdraw. ”
"Well, these people are all family members of the Liaodong Army, and there is indeed no reason to stay." Princess Zhenming nodded on the side, agreeing with Lord Wei's analysis.
"Let's go for a walk outside, and we will have dinner soon!" Wei Bao smiled: "I haven't been out of the customs for a long time, let's go to the city to enjoy the snow and enjoy the customs outside the city." ”
Wang Qiuya and Princess Zhenming were naturally happy to accompany Lord Wei for a walk, and Mrs. Zhang Meiyuan and Mrs. Wu Xuexia were pregnant at the same time, and they both went to Weijiazhuang to have a baby, which made them all breathe a sigh of relief.
Especially Wu Xuexia, Wu Xuexia has been fully in charge of the presidential secretariat, and this time Wu Xuexia temporarily left, making the presidential secretariat changed to Wang Qiuya and Princess Zhenming to be in charge together, which gave the two of them a chance.
Since Princess Zhenming slowly got used to the life by Lord Wei's side and saw herself as the president's woman, she has become more and more devoted to the work of the entire organization of the Heaven and Earth Society.
For ordinary people, men's and women's families, lives and careers, and hobbies may be separated, but for a No. 1 person like Wei Bao, it cannot be separated.
Because the Heaven and Earth Society is already the organizational situation of the country, Wei Bao is equivalent to the emperor, everything belongs to the emperor, and there is no way to separate, no matter what women do, they like mystery, they are all under Wei Bao's control, all in one box.
Cong Gulen Gege was taken by Wei Bao's side, but he was accompanied by someone and did not enter Wei Bao's life, if Wei Bao did not summon Cong Gulen Gege, even if the two were in Ningyuan City, they would not be able to meet.
The dusk of Ningyuan City is very beautiful, snow-capped, the sun is setting, and the scenery of the Northland Plain is endless.
Wei Bao's face was inside the collar of the black da, and he watched the castle tower for a few minutes before going back, after all, it was too cold outside.
At this time, several horses suddenly came in the distance.
Wei Bao's eyesight was good after practicing martial arts, and he saw it.
These people came from the west, and there should be no Ming soldiers and civilians in the west, which made Wei Bao a little strange.
If it is a Mongol or Han Chinese who ventures to trade outside the customs, there should not only be a few light horses, but a fleet of horses with goods.
These few light horses are very much like Jiannu's scouts.
Can Jiannu's sitting, dare to come to Ningyuan City so straight?
The five horses quickly arrived at the gate of Ningyuan City, fifty meters away, Wei Bao was on the city tower, and he could clearly see the other party's clothes, and with binoculars, he could even see people's faces clearly.
Wei Bao saw that these five people were wearing Mongolian clothes, but they didn't look like Mongolians, especially the first person dressed as a literati, which aroused Wei Bao's suspicions, "Eighty percent is Jiannu's sitting probe, see if you can be caught?" ”
Wei Bao said to Lin Wenbiao beside him.
Lin Wenbiao replied: "I'm afraid it's difficult, they're too far away." ”
Wei Bao snorted, still observing with the telescope, and the other party seemed to be observing his side as well.
Wei Bao suddenly remembered one thing, the flags at the head of the city were all the flags of the Ming army, and there was no problem with this.
However, after the Bao Army changed guards with the Ming Army, the Bao Army still wore the unique military uniform of the Bao Army, all yellow-gray military uniforms, long pants and long sleeves, with a belt in the middle, and an iron helmet on top of his head, and a cloth military hat inside the iron helmet.
The military uniform of the Baojun is very different from the clothing of any army of this era, and it is easy to distinguish.
"It's over, I forgot to let you wear Ming Jun's clothes, and now these people must see the problem! I'm afraid that if they know that our treasure army has been replaced to guard Ningyuan City, they won't dare to come and fight. Wei Bao said to Lin Wenbiao.
"It's possible, Jiannu has long been scared by our army, and he can't take advantage of the treasure army at all, if he knows that it is my treasure army guarding the city, he really won't dare to come to sneak attack." Lin Wenbiao said.
Wei Bao slapped his thigh, annoyed.
After so much hard work and so much turnover, he got the opportunity to defend Ningyuan City from Yuan Chonghuan, and then everything seemed to fall short.
If Jiannu didn't dare to attack, and there was no way to recreate the slave and seriously injure Nurhachi, wouldn't everything be in vain?
Princess Zhenming seemed to see the president's thoughts, "President, it's okay, just from the military uniform, they can't tell whether it is the treasure army or the Ming army, the Ming army is very likely to blapp in order to enhance its prestige and wear the military uniform of our treasure army." ”
When Wei Bao heard this, his eyes lit up, and he nodded and smiled: "Yes, if you want to come, you will always come, it doesn't matter what clothes you wear." Maybe this will make us even more bluffing. ”
"Also, although it is not easy for Jiannu to send spies in the Baojun, but in the Liaodong border army must have sent a large number of spies, whether they fought against Liaodong, or against North Korea, or against Mongolia, they were all spies to make trouble first, respond from the inside, raid from the outside, and attack the opponent, so it is difficult for our Baojun and the Liaodong border army to change guards, and it is difficult to hide from Jiannu's ears and eyes." Princess Zhenming further analyzed.
Wei Bao nodded: "Yes, there are tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians on Juehua Island, and it is impossible for Jiannu not to know about such a large-scale retreat." ”
Wei Bao couldn't help but feel that it was really the earth that everyone would turn the same way, Wu Xuexia was by his side before, Wu Xuexia liked to analyze, and also showed intelligence and talent, so Princess Zhenming rarely spoke, and now that Wu Xuexia is gone, Princess Zhenming's words have increased.
"Then you say, Jiannu knows that our treasure army has arrived in Ningyuan City, do they still dare to come to fight? Will they take the opportunity to chase after the centaurs of Kyaw Island? Wei Bao asked.
"Jiannu knows that the Ming army on the front line of Jinzhou has withdrawn, and now it is withdrawing the soldiers and civilians of Juehua Island, which means that the soldiers and horses in Liaodong have been withdrawn, they must know that this is the Ming court to let this happen, and it is estimated that the Ming court will give up all the gates. They must be very clear about the stationing of the Bao Army and the Liaodong Border Army, and they must be able to analyze that our Bao Army is either coming to help the Liaodong Border Army evacuate, or our Bao Army is coming to take over Ningyuan City. No matter what the purpose of our treasure army is, I think Jiannu will definitely come to Ningyuan City to test our strength and test our intentions. As for the pursuit, it depends on whether the people of Juehua Island withdraw quickly or slowly, if they can withdraw in these two days, Jiannu will definitely not dare to pursue, they have suffered many times in the hands of the treasure army, and they will definitely not dare to bypass Ningyuan City to chase to the hinterland between Ningyuan City and Shanhaiguan, they will be afraid that the treasure army will make them dumplings. Princess Zhenming said.
Wei Bao was overjoyed when he heard this: "Well, the analysis is very accurate!" I think so, too. ”
Wei Bao asked Lin Wenbiao: "Where is our cavalry now, and are they still stationed near Karaqin?" ”
"Yes." Lin Wenbiao said.
"Find a way to contact the cavalry and let them come to the vicinity of Ningyuan." Wei Bao Road.
"This is easy to do, one day to deliver a letter, one day to march quickly, and the cavalry can arrive in two days." Lin Wenbiao said.
"Well, don't be in such a hurry, let them rush between Ningyuan City and Gaotai Fort within five days, they are just on standby, not that the situation has changed, basically there is no need to use cavalry, and the cavalry is useless in the cold weather." Wei Bao laughed.
Lin Wenbiao nodded in agreement, and hurriedly asked someone to pass the order.
Karaqin is already within the control of the Bao army, and there is no occupied area of Jiannu in the middle, so it is very convenient to send messages.
Wei Bao originally thought that these Jiannu would leave after watching for a while, but who would have thought that Jiannu would actually come over.
"Brother of the defenders of the city, are you the treasure army? Please ask your generals to come out and speak. Jiannu shouted thirty meters outside the city, holding a shield, as if he was afraid of the cold guns of the treasure army.
Wei Bao felt amused and shouted in person, "Who are you?" Is it Jiannu's spies? If there is anything, just tell Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is the defender of this city! ”
When Wei Bao shouted, he hid behind the parapet on the city wall.
Wei Bao knew that at the forefront, Jiannu and the Ming army often shouted at each other like this, so it was not surprising.
This is mainly because Jiannu has an absolute advantage in the field, and he is not afraid of the Ming army going out of the city to catch up, so he is so arrogant.
"You're a guard? Dare to ask the general's official position, the general's surname? The man asked.
Wei Bao thought about it, his voice seemed to be somewhat similar to Yuan Chonghuan, and Wei Bao could pretend to be Yuan Chonghuan's Cantonese accent, so he said: "Lao Tzu's surname is Yuan, what is your name?" What the hell is going on!? ”
"Below is Fan Wencheng, the secretary of the Great Khan, and Your Excellency is Lord Yuan Chonghuan of Ning Qiandao, right?" The man shouted.
Wei Bao sweats, is this Fan Wencheng?
Wei Bao almost met Fan Wencheng several times, it turned out that when he was in southern Liaoning, Wei Bao once personally pretended to be a guy from the Tiandi Firm and ran to Huang Taiji's side, and he almost saw Fan Wencheng at that time, but Wei Bao never saw Fan Wencheng's face.
Now that the face is matched with the person, Fan Wencheng's tall literati image coincides with the image of a traitor like Fan Wencheng in Wei Bao's heart.
In fact, Wei Bao didn't particularly hate people like Fan Wencheng.
Because as far as Wei Bao knows, Fan Wencheng did not take the initiative to take refuge in Houjin.
Fan Wencheng himself was actually one of the many Han Chinese slaves captured by Nurhachi after conquering Fushun.
However, Fan Wencheng later became the head of the Wenchen in the early Qing Dynasty, which is really not glorious, and it also exposes the national conquest policy of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Fan Wencheng himself was just a slave before he was appreciated by Huang Taiji.
Fan Wencheng himself did not have any merits during the Nurhachi period, in fact, he first appeared in the old Manchu files, and it was already during the reign of Huang Taiji in the Qing Shilu, and his status was very low at that time, even lower than Bao Chengxian and Ning Wan.
Saying that Fan Wencheng was appreciated by Nurhachi is obviously a beautification of him by later generations.
If Fan Wencheng really took refuge with a sword, with his later status, he would definitely be greatly exaggerated in the Qing Record, but there is no written record in the Qing Taizu Record.
Fan Wencheng was really not a down-and-out talent, Fan Wencheng was only 21 years old at that time, and he had already entered school, became a student, and had a bright future, so he really couldn't talk about anything down.
Wei Bao felt that Fan Wencheng, as one of the few show celebrities in Liaodong, should have seen it through, knowing that there was no hope of taking the Zhongxiang Examination, and that he had no chance to be lifted, and he caught up with the captives, so he simply voted for Jiannu.
When you are a traitor, you don't have too many reasons, you can do it for any reason, and saving your life is the best excuse.
And the definition of a traitor has always been vague from ancient times to the present.
Zhang Hongfan and Shi Tianze of the Song Dynasty would definitely not consider themselves traitors, and it was difficult to treat others as traitors.
Confucius has been inherited for thousands of years, the change of Jingkang, the orthodoxy of the descendant line followed Zhao Gou to the south, known as the Confucian Mansion Nanzong, and later the Yuan Dynasty, the Nanzong was abolished, and the ruler said that it was orthodoxy is orthodoxy, not yes, it is not orthodoxy, it is not orthodoxy, yes and no.
The warlords of Sun Dianying and his ilk were in order to preserve their strength, and the politicians of Wang Jingwei and his ilk were in order to gain power.
Therefore, Wei Bao can understand Fan Wencheng, Fushun has fallen, in order to protect his wife and children, he can only take the initiative to kneel and lick Jiannu, and in order to protect his wife and children, he can only prove his use value with his life.
Talking about righteousness and not changing in the face of danger, how many people can do it.
Wei Bao heard that the other party really regarded himself as Yuan Chonghuan, and secretly laughed, thinking that he really regarded the Baojun as the Liaodong border army, so he said: "Don't care who I am!" I haven't heard the name Fan Wencheng, what's the matter with you!? On a cold day, I don't have time to grind foreign workers with you, if it is another slave to persuade you to surrender, I advise you to save it! ”
Fan Wencheng probably didn't talk to Yuan Chonghuan either, and when he heard the other party's words, he was a little strange, but he could still understand the general meaning immediately, so he said: "Lord Yuan, I know that you are the Ming Army, and you have changed into the clothes of the Baojun and are here to make a fool of yourself!" The soldiers and horses of the Liaodong border army outside the pass were originally only about 30,000, and today we see that many people and horses have been withdrawn from Ningyuan City, and the people and horses of Juehua Island are also withdrawing, it must be your emperor who intends to give up Liaodong! In that case, why did you die here in vain? ”
Wei Bao thought it was quite interesting, but he didn't expect to come out for a walk, and he could meet Fan Wencheng to persuade him to surrender.
From Fan Wencheng's words, Wei Bao could judge that Jiannu's army must be very close to Ningyuan City now.
