Then he said: "Another minister recommended one person to assist Dingguo Gong in exterminating the thieves. ”

When he heard this, Emperor Jiachong asked, "Who?" ”

Yang Yongchang said: "Chen Yunding. ”

"Chen Yunding?" Emperor Jiachong silently read the name.

In other words, this Chen Yunding is also a strange person in the Great Jing Dynasty, where is he strange? Strange is that he is the first person to be the first person in the three yuan since the founding of the Dajing Dynasty in the past hundred years, and what is even more commendable is that this person does not have the pedantic spirit of an ordinary scholar, and he is a literary and elegant person, and he is dignified and noble.

Now, Chen Yunding's official worships the title of Imperial History of the Left Governor of the Dajing Dynasty and leads the cabinet scholars, which is Yang Yongchang's right-hand man in the imperial court.

At this moment, Yang Yongchang sent him out, the meaning was obvious, just to not want Dingguo Gong to get this feat.

In this pool of water in the imperial court, the fierceness of the battle between the nobles and the civil ministers is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people, after all, one is a military minister, the other is a civil minister, as if born with a little unpleasant meaning, but the deeper reason is the pursuit of power.

The honors and nobles are hereditary, basically the descendants of the fathers, naturally there is a trace of arrogance, the ministers are all hard to read, and they also have such a bookish atmosphere, the two people, after experiencing the beginning of the founding of the country, after the joint harmony of the Taizu Emperor era, gradually began to fight.

What to fight, of course, is the supreme power of the Great Jing Dynasty.

When Emperor Taizong, Xu Yunxin, the Duke of Wenguo, was the first assistant of the cabinet at that time, so that the spirit of the world's scholars was taken away, and that incident also became a pain in the hearts of many Wenchen.

Now, Yang Yongchang has made every effort to come up with this ten-sided net strategy, of course, not to let Dingguo Gong Cao Lie benefit, pacify the displaced people, and sweep away the world, such a feat is enough to make Dingguo Gong Cao Lie enter the cabinet. According to his voice, he can threaten Yang Yongchang's position as the first assistant, which is what Yang Yongchang fears the most.

Although the current saint has a trace of doubts about the Dingguo Gong Cao Qianlie, the kind of trust that has been formed over the past hundred years is definitely not so easy to be knocked down by such a trace of doubt, so now the saint still trusts him.

Then, you can only take this merit to your own people.

As for failure, Yang Yongchang didn't think about it, he was a proud and conceited person, in his opinion, with his respect as the first assistant, he set such a strategy, could he still not exterminate a few thieves?

Therefore, this is why he told Emperor Jiachong today.

After thinking silently for a while, Emperor Jiachong looked at Yang Yongchang, but there were some elusive things in it, but after staying for a while, he said: "I am ready for your performance, but Chen Yunding, Dingguo Gong said a few days ago that the thieves are divided into two, one in Shaanxi, and one in Hubei, I think, Chen Yunding and Dingguo Gong will each suppress one side, what is the opinion of the Emperor?" ”

Hearing Emperor Jiachong's answer, Yang Yongchang's face changed, he knew that this was a compromise between Emperor Jiachong's opinion on him, but there was no lack of spur in it, look at your people and Dingguo Gong who annihilated the thieves first, who will be the real pillar of the country.

At this point, Yang Yongchang was also a little helpless, so he could only continue: "I implore the emperor to transfer the Hengmo army under the command of the governor of the three sides, Hong Bingxun, ......" But this sentence was directly rejected by Emperor Jiachong, he said: "Hong Bingxun is a setback, and the Yidi people are also unstable." ”

Hearing this, Yang Yongchang was also silent, so he could only bow down and leave the library.

Looking at Yang Yongchang's distant background, Emperor Jiachong, but he didn't know how, some irritability that didn't come, although he didn't know everything, but he could still know that now in the world of the Great Jing Dynasty, he really couldn't help but have any mistakes.

However, above the court, the ministers are still thinking about fighting for power and profit.

This made Emperor Jiachong sigh at the same time, but there was not much he could do, his eyes could only move to the window, looking at the gloomy sky, just like his gloomy mood, he didn't know when the sun would be able to shine there.

In this way, this strategy to determine the world was given by the characters on the two highest stages of the Great Jing Dynasty in this small study, and then it was reflected in a post text and began to be sent to important places all over the world to prepare.

It is conceivable that the whole world will once again usher in a gloom.

Ten days passed like this.

Liu Qing still led his Dingzhu camp to walk on the land of northern Henan, they didn't know that the day after they left, the army led by Cao Shinian had already come to Maishan, but even if they knew, they wouldn't care too much.

Although the officers and soldiers did not chase after them, they had already been left behind in the west of the Qinhe River, but they encountered a new problem.

That's food.

yes, even the grain that was once grown in the earth is now more precious than gold, and it is everything.

This place in northern Henan, after nearly three months of fighting between the official army and the camp of displaced people, has completely become barren, and they have grabbed food from Huaiqingfu City, that is, enough for them to eat for more than half a month.

At the beginning, Liu Qing still thought about what villages and villages he encountered, and he could loot some things, but on the east bank of Qinshui, it was even more difficult to see people than on the west bank, and the villages had long been in ruins.

The bloodstains on it seemed to tell a story from a short time ago.

Moreover, the officers and soldiers here don't know what medicine they have taken, and they have become very brave and good at fighting, and they have come to attack them to the death, Liu Qing and they don't know that this is because Cao Shinian has beheaded two guards and hundreds of households in a row.

Between life and death, how can all the people not work hard.

The weather is getting colder and colder, Liu Qing rubbed his hands vigorously, at this moment they were in a valley, and the soldiers below were either roasting the fire, chatting, or wiping their injured weapons and armor.

At this time, not far away, there was a sound of horses' hooves vibrating, which made the soldiers in the camp feel nervous for a while in the silent night, and some of them had even drawn their weapons, ready for a possible fight.

But it is clear that their nervousness is a false alarm.

The person who came was Sun Dadou.

Since Sun Dadou showed his equestrian strength in the battle with the thousands of households around Huaiqing Mansion, Liu Qing specially handed over all the horses in the Dingyu camp to him, forming a cavalry team of more than 60 people.

On the one hand, it is a special scout, and on the other hand, it is also for the rush above the battle array.

At this moment, it was Sun Dadou who came to report the news, just in case, Liu Qing distributed all the cavalry under his command within a radius of thirty miles, and as soon as there was any trouble, the camp would immediately react and make preparations in advance.

However, at this moment, Sun Dadou must have some important information when he comes here.

In other words, in the winter, Sun Dadou, who was covered in sweat, came to Liu Qing.

But said that Sun Dadou's face was full of excitement, and he saw Liu Qing is shouting from a distance: "General, in the nearby Ningguo, there is a post station for officers and soldiers in it, which is prosperous, and his subordinates have also found out that there are many good horses in Ningguoyi, it is better to ......"

After Liu Qing heard it, he was rarely silent, he understood the meaning of Sun Dadou's words, since crossing Qinshui, almost all the days spent in the Dingzhu camp were in hiding, there was not a single loot, there was not a single supply, just food and no food, life was naturally a little critical.

However, Liu Qing did not immediately agree with Sun Dadou's words, he also had his own ideas, after all, since the beginning of this time, the difficulties suffered by the Dingying camp were rare, although he still looked heroic on the surface.

But in fact, he could already smell the smell of blood in the air, yes, he seemed to see the terrible battles that would greet the camp in the near future.

This is due to Liu Qing's intuition about danger.

So, he pondered for a while and said to Sun Dadou: "How about the vicinity of that post station?" Sun Dadou said: "I have checked, although the roads around the post station are extremely convenient, and there are no officers and soldiers stationed in the town. ”

After receiving this answer, Liu Qing said again: "How many people are there? Sun Dadou said: "Probably the post station is dozens of people, and there may be some township soldiers in the town, but the horses and grain in Ningguoyi should not be too small, and this town looks rich from the outside." ”

After getting Sun Dadou's affirmative answer, Liu Qing immediately made a decision, and he said to Wang Heng: "Prepare, go with me tonight to get rid of this Ning Guoyi." Hearing that there would be another battle to fight, Wang Heng hurriedly said excitedly: "Yes." ”

Zheng Yiling said: "General, just a post station, a small town, how can you bother the general to make a move?" Liu Qing smiled and said, "I want to exercise the strength of the pro-guard team, okay, Yiling, you take three hundred people with me." ”

"Yes." Zheng Yiling also agreed.

Just do it, and soon the four hundred soldiers of the Dingyu battalion gathered, looked at them, and Liu Qing said loudly: "Let's go." ”

People have been preparing for a long time, and when they heard this order, they moved quickly and quickly.

It is said that Naning Guoyi is not very far from the place where their camp is located, and because it is located in a place where the road is accessible and there is a town, this is not a remote place, but in this year, there are no pedestrians on the road at this time, and the whole town is very quiet.

And today, Ning Guoyi is a little vigilant, without him, just now, a post envoy from the capital, with urgent documents, to rush to Kaifeng Mansion, looking at his appearance when he first came, the post guards all felt a little surprised, but when they inquired, they learned that this person actually used a day and a half of effort, and rushed here from Jingshi Shuntian Mansion, or let all of them feel a trace of urgency.

Good wine and good material to serve this post envoy and his horses, the whole post station began to be busy for a long time, and the post chief of the post station also made people vigilant, after all, in recent times, the world is not very peaceful, and there is such an envoy in his post station, it is better to be careful.

Although the post station is not as good as it used to be, it is not a job after all.

However, everything was in vain for the post master today, and they did not know that someone had already targeted them.

Ning Guoyi is actually in a small town, when Jiachong was ten years old, Huaiqing Mansion sentenced Dou Guangyi to build here, and now this town is also called Dou Gongcheng. Ning Guoyi is placed here.

The townsfolk in the town also received a notice from the post chief, but none of them were in much danger.

After all, in the image, aren't the displaced people on the other side of the river?

After tonight, though, it will leave them with a deep image.

Now, the Dingyu camp has a series of systematic things for the night siege, after all, the two famous works of the Dingyu camp are to conquer Huaiqing Mansion City, and now in the face of such a small town, a small post station, all the people are not very nervous.

However, war is war, when you are approaching, no matter what, the atmosphere of silence will always make people surprisingly serious, at this moment Liu Qing and Sun Dadou, Wang Heng, and Zheng Yiling are observing outside.

The city wall here is less than a zhang high, which is far from Huaiqing Mansion City, and from the outside, the defenses inside are not so tight, Liu Qing glanced at Zheng Yiling, and Zheng Yiling immediately understood the meaning inside.

He said to a thin man beside him, "Zhou Lingzi, give it to me." The skinny man next to him immediately said, "Yes." "This person, Zhou Lingzi, is the person who has been following Zheng Yiling, because of his thin stature, he has learned a good martial arts before, so he is very good at climbing kung fu.

Now, behind him, more than a dozen people have come out, all holding ropes and hooks and the like, which can be regarded as a siege camp composed of the Dingyu camp, and the people in it are mostly rangers.

Zhou Lingzi sneaked to the city with these dozen people, threw ropes and other items, and smoothly touched the town, on the wall of the town, there were so many people who looked like village soldiers, who were dozing there, Zhou Lingzi took out the knife tied to his leg and came to those people.

Under the knife, blood comes out and people die.

Everything went so smoothly that it was probably the easiest war the camp had fought in recent days.

In the future, there is no suspense, it is nothing more than Liu Qing leading the pro-guard team and Zheng Yiling's 300 people to kill in the town, these are actually not the point.

The focus is on Ning Guoyi.

Yes, this is the reason for their attack, here are the horses.

Cavalry, in this era, still has his very special role.

It's a king class.

Liu Qing knew that if they were going to fight on the move for a long time, they would definitely have to be indispensable for strategic items such as horses, but there were only less than a hundred horses in the camp.
