Fang Jifan came out of the Forbidden City and deliberately went to the military department.

Here, Zhang Mao and Ma Wensheng have received the order, and they are as anxious as ants in a hot pot, and they are discussing countermeasures with civil and military officials.

However, after pondering for a long time, the countermeasures they discussed were not countermeasures.

This is actually understandable, this person can't be rescued.

Zhou La was surrounded outside the pass, and the Tatars besieged it without attacking, the purpose was to attract the Ming army out of the pass, and the biggest battle of the Ming army was the pass, so let them face the Tatar iron cavalry outside the pass?

The number of Tatars gathered there is already increasing, in the thousands, and God knows if there will be more and more in the future.

What if the elite of the Ming army is exhausted?

It is almost conceivable that once the Ming army poured out, even if the Tatars were defeated, it would be easy to kill Zhou La before they withdrew.

Zhang Mao pretended to study the map for a while, this is what His Majesty asked him to think, but ...... He couldn't think of this method.

Ma Wensheng was also pretending to look at the map, just blindly sighing, and when the two raised their eyes from the map, they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

Zhang Mao sighed and said, "This person ...... I'm afraid I can't save it. ”

Ma Wensheng bitterly faced, nodded and said: "This person is really hateful, so decent, he actually went out to hunt, he is not small." ”

Zhang Mao didn't make a sound, he was different from Ma Wensheng.

Ma Wensheng is a civil servant, and he can scold anyone if he catches him.

And he is a martial artist, in fact, he needs to be more cautious.

Zhang Mao said: "What will you say about the charter that Your Majesty wants?" ”

Ma Wensheng frowned and said, "I have to say that we need to send more scouts to find out the details." ”

Zhang Mao nodded, and said helplessly: "Since this is the case, then it is decided, and I will go to the book." ”

"Wait." Ma Wensheng waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about the discussion." ”

"What do you mean?" Zhang Mao squinted and looked at Ma Wensheng, he couldn't get any results from the discussion at all, and he was still a fart.

Ma Wensheng glanced at Zhang Mao meaningfully, and then said: "British Duke, Zhou Lanai is the grandson of the Empress Dowager, it is not trivial, now in the palace, it is said that it is no longer possible, Your Majesty ordered you and I to try our best to think of countermeasures, but I want to save people without sacrificing a large number of military horses, and I can't negotiate peace with the Tatars and save people...... This is impossible, and you and I both know this in our hearts. But...... Your Majesty is anxious, you and I have been studying for such a moment, and then we are helpless? British public, there is no way, this is one thing, but ...... Those who are ministers can't be perfunctory. ”

Zhang Mao was silent for a moment, and suddenly felt that he had lived on a dog for most of his life.

No wonder Wenchen is getting more and more mixed, this is not reasonable.

Look at people, think deep enough, pay attention to it......

Zhang Mao nodded and said, "Tomorrow again?" ”

Ma Wensheng shook his head and said, "At least the day after tomorrow." ”

Zhang Mao nodded: "Then the day after tomorrow, why don't we discuss it again?" Well, old man, look at it, here, here...... These ......"

…………

discussed with Ma Wensheng until late at night, and Zhang Mao came out of the military department.

Zhang Mao couldn't help but scold angrily in his heart, these guys in the military department are really good at pretending, and I don't know anything else, whether they are also working so hard, but in fact, they have already thought of nothing to do.

He went out of the yamen of the military department with a heavy heart, but saw that Fang Jifan happened to come on horseback.

Zhang Mao was happy: "Nephew Fang Xian, I haven't seen you for a few days." ”

Fang Jifan dismounted and said, "I've seen Shibo." ”

Zhang Mao slapped Fang Jifan on the shoulder affectionately, and said, "What do you mean, why do you need to be so polite?" What kind of friendship do we have, what, what are you doing in the military department? ”

Fang Jifan endured the pain on his shoulder and said, "Let's check on Zhou La's affairs." ”

"Zhou La?" Zhang Maoyi raised his eyebrows and said: "This guy, it's over, you are here by order......"

Fang Jifan shook his head and said, "No, I just want to know when he will die and where he is surrounded." ”

Zhang Mao's eyes widened, looking at Fang Jifan, with his understanding of Fang Jifan, this guy ...... It can't be gloating, right?

But...... It doesn't matter.

Zhang Mao is a martial artist, and he doesn't look down on those imperial relatives, especially the Zhang family brothers and the Zhou family...... It's just a little better than the Zhang family.

Zhang Mao was easy to talk about this, and continued: "This is easy, the map and other reports, later, the old man will let someone send it to you." ”

This is not a confidential matter, not to mention that Fang Jifan is also a close minister now, so there is no big hindrance.

Zhang Maole continued: "Come to my house and have a few drinks with me." ”

Fang Jifan was relieved when he learned that Zhang Mao would send all the reports, and said, "That won't work, you have to do it next time." ”

After that, he turned over and got on the horse again: "The little nephew still has something, next time." ”

"This man...... It's realistic. Zhang Mao saw that this guy fled on horseback, shook his head and said: "When Lao Tzu was young, he was very polite. ”

………………

Early the next morning, the detailed report was placed on Fang Jifan's desk.

Fang Jifan looked at the reports one by one, after all, Zhou La was lost in Shanhaiguan, and the civil and military officials were already frightened, although they couldn't save people, they released many scouts, trying their best to investigate, in addition, the Beizhen Prefecture Department has been paying more and more attention to the movements of the Tatars recently, and among the Tatars, there are also some details buried secretly, and these details have also probed a lot of accurate information.

Fang Jifan sometimes really had to admire Jin Yiwei.

Location...... It's been figured out.

Zhou La was surrounded, and now there is only one person left by his side.

As for the Tatars, they were only stationed on all sides one or two miles away from him, in fact, they were not worried that Zhou La had escaped, their target was obviously not Zhou La, but the Ming army waiting to come to the rescue.

The Ming Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, although the Tatars were not sure whether the Ming army would go out, but who knows, this person is the nephew of the grandmother of the Ming Emperor.

They deliberately left so little hope for the Ming court, and their essence was to attract the Ming army.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the Ming army doesn't come, the dream will still be there, what if it comes true?

Fang Jifan looked at the map, confirmed little by little, and roughly determined the location.

Immediately, he rode to the west mountain.

He decided to do it big.

It was the first time he felt bold.

Zhou La, that guy, it doesn't matter if he dies or not, but the important thing is the Queen Mother, ah, no, it's Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Because...... Only people who work so hard will have a girlfriend.

rushed to Xishan in one go, Fang Jifan immediately asked Wang Jinyuan to find him, and said, "The balloon I made last time, let people clean it up and send it to Shanhaiguan quickly." ”

Wang Jinyuan was taken aback, and said in surprise: "Go to Shanhaiguan?" Didn't you say that it was put on top of the farmhouse to attract tourists? ”

Fang Jifan smiled and said: "It's a matter of urgency, don't solicit it, take it to do something important first, and pick a few more people for me, to be strong, oh, bring that Yang Biao with you, he is already proficient in manipulating balloons." Yes, and that Shen Ao was also called, this apprentice is a good person, he is not small, and his medical skills are also very clever. ”

Wang Jinyuan was full of surprise, and couldn't help but say, "Uncle, you are ......?"

Fang Jifan had a bad temper, so he didn't bother to explain, and said directly: "I'll go if I tell you to go, what are you talking about, I don't want your legs?" ”

Fang Jifan was still very prestigious in this West Mountain, Wang Jinyuan shuddered and hurriedly ordered.

Fang Jifan asked people to prepare a carriage, although he always felt that as a useful person who could make greater contributions to the future, he should keep a suitable distance from danger, but this time, he was afraid that he would have to go to Shanhaiguan with him.

The convoy was quickly ready.

Shen Ao was flattered when he heard his master call him, and his face turned red with excitement, he was studying in Xishan, and now Baguwen is getting better and better, and his riding and archery kung fu has also made great progress, and most importantly, the whole person's body is strong.

"The student has seen the teacher." He bowed respectfully.

Fang Jifan smiled and said: "Get up, don't be polite, your master is an upright person, I won't talk in secret, I have a very dangerous thing here, I want to explain to you to do it, are you willing to do it?" ”

Shen Ao said without hesitation: "If a student can serve his master, he is willing to die." ”

Fang Jifan sighed in his heart, what a kind and good boy.

Sure enough, it is worthy of the species of Shen Wen, a scholar of Hallym University.

Fang Jifan said: "That being said, this errand is very important, and it is better to have a wise and brave person in the middle, among the young people in Xishan Academy, the master admires you the most, so I think of you." But don't talk too much, you can go if you want to, and if you don't go, you won't go, and my master won't force it. ”

Shen Ao was even more excited when he heard that his master admired him the most, he thought that he was inconspicuous in the academy, where did he think of it......

In an instant, Shen Ao's eyes were red, and he choked up: "Master, the student will go to the soup and go to the fire, and he will not give up." ”

Fang Jifan was also infected by his courage, so he said: "Strong! Sure enough, I didn't cultivate you in vain, come, here's a pleading, you come and draw a charge, lest something happen to you, and your father comes to me to ask for someone. ”

“……”

When Shen Ao saw the pleadings, his mind was dizzy, and he only saw that there was a sentence on it: "Life and death aside, everything is to blame."

He wanted to look up and say, Master, isn't it a bit wrong to take the blame for yourself?

But Fang Jifan has already sent the pen and ink clay.

After thinking about it, Shen Ao didn't hesitate much, directly picked up the pen, solemnly signed his name, and pressed his handprint.

Fang Jifan glanced at him with admiration, took the pleadings into his arms, and his heart was suddenly steady.

A moment later, the convoy set off, Fang Jifan also followed, Shen Ao rode a horse, and he thought to himself...... Suddenly, I felt a very nervous feeling, and I just felt that my right eye was constantly jumping.
