Chapter 52: Zhou Yu Huang Gai

Chapter 52 Zhou Yu Huang Gai

"Brother Xian, the peace talks are already in place, I'm afraid it won't be long before we can go back. " Wang Gao said expressionlessly.

Even so, Jue Chang'an, who was sitting on the side, could guess what he was thinking.

This time, he led the troops to fight in Korea with Shen Chongming, and he didn't make much credit, but the 20,000 horses and horses added up by the two guards lost more than 8,000, almost half, which can be described as a heavy loss.

And so far, I haven't figured out what Shen Chongming's plans are, and no one can guess what kind of situation will be in this return. If it is still the same as usual, then there is nothing to be afraid of, I am afraid that the imperial court will have some bad intentions against the three guards of Jianzhou, with the current comparison of forces between the two sides, I am afraid that it will be difficult to deal with.

"Brother, the younger brother thinks that it is a complete calculation, let's think about it carefully, so as not to mess up when we get it." Jue Changan said helplessly. At a disadvantage, I can only act cautiously step by step.

Wang Gao nodded, "Didn't we talk about staying in North Korea a few days ago, what do you think?" ”

"Don't hide it from my brother, my younger brother also has this intention. If we can really stay in North Korea, our situation will be much better, and now the worry is that the imperial court will not let this matter go. Jue Changan said with some worry.

Just drove away the Japanese invaders, but when the king of Korea came back, he found that the Jurchens were stranded and did not leave, so he had to die of anger. When the time comes, he will definitely complain to the imperial court and ask the imperial court to send the Jurchens back. However, once you disobey the order, you are afraid that you will summon a large army to conquer it.

"Leave nothing else at that, I'm afraid that Shen Chongming won't let us stay. Now that he has a heavy army, we can't resist it at all, Brother Xian, what can you do? Wang Gao's face was full of sadness, he didn't go, he didn't stay, he was really sad.

Speaking of Shen Chongming, Jue Changan couldn't help but laugh out loud. During these days, he already had an understanding of Shen Chongming's temperament and hobbies.

"Brother, Shen Chongming is young but in a high position, although he is not shallow, but he is only afraid that he is also a person who is good at slapping horses. And judging by his words and deeds, this person is really a greedy man for money. If we want to get some benefits from him this time, we can only make some fuss about the money. ”

Shen Chong's name is good and wealthy, which Wang Gao can also see, since he reached a preliminary agreement with the Japanese and set a compensation of eight million taels of silver, this guy's mouth has never been closed.

"There is some truth in what you say, if a million taels of silver are placed in front of him, this matter will definitely be a matter of course. But how are we going to raise such a large sum of silver taels to give to him? Wang Gao frowned, the Jurchen tribe who hunted for a living did not have such a thing as silver taels at all. All the silver on hand at the moment is the military expenses allocated by Shen Chongming before leaving, but this is far less than one million taels.

Jue Changan nodded, it is indeed a big problem to raise such a large sum of silver taels. After pondering for a while, Jue Changan tried to say: "Brother, didn't Shen Chongming say that there would be a heavy reward for us after the big victory, and although this silver is still less than one million taels, it can also be tempted." ”

Wang Gao frowned, and then he was a little embarrassed: "I'm afraid this matter is not easy, now that peace has been negotiated, we are dispensable roles for him, but I am afraid that the things he promised us at the beginning will be gone." ”

Jue Chang'an was also in trouble for a while, the Han people were cunning, and it was really difficult to get them to keep their promises. "What my brother said is reasonable, but the matter has come to this point, and we can only give it a try. If it works out, if not, think of something else. ”

"Ugh." With a long sigh, Wang Gao nodded helplessly and said, "I can only give it a try, and we will quietly look for him tomorrow evening." ”

Just when the two were discussing this matter secretly, Shen Chongming, who lived in the big tent of the Chinese army, was also anxious. The war was too smooth, and it was about to end before he could dig the big hole. As a result, the plan for Jianzhou Sanwei will be put on hold.

At this time, Shen Chongming would never have imagined that his relationship with Wang Gao and Jue Changan was already that of Zhou Yu and Huang Gai, one was willing to fight and the other was willing to suffer, but no one proposed it for the time being.

"Erdan, use your pig brain to think of a way quickly, how to make Wang Gao and Jue Changan make up their minds to stay." Shen Chongming rushed to the hospital in a hurry, and directly asked the second brother on the side about the strategy.

Shouting his pig brain but letting himself think of a way, Brother Erdan's mood can be imagined, and he said reluctantly: "My lord, where can I come up with any way to come up with this pig brain." ”

How could this complaining tone be concealed from Shen Chongming, and immediately his eyes widened and he shouted: "Bold, if you can't think of a way, you and Miss Xin'er don't have a marriage!" ”

The master made a move, and immediately grabbed the weakness of Brother Erdan, and saw that he instantly put on a flattering smile, and said with a flattering face: "My lord is angry, aren't my subordinates also in a hurry, let's find a way, let's find a way." ”

Shen Chongming snorted coldly, sat there and drank strong tea in a big gulp, and got on fire.

"My lord, otherwise you will directly order them to stay, and they will not dare to disobey!" Brother Erdan used his brains for a long time, and sure enough, he came up with a bad idea.

"Rice bucket, if this is the case, they will definitely guess the official's intention to kill people with a knife, and by then we have withdrawn our troops, and the North Koreans are eager for them to leave quickly, so they will just leave." Shen Chongming glared at him and reprimanded.

"This ...... There is no way for this subordinate, if you are good, you can figure one out yourself. Brother Qian's donkey skills are poor, so he can only look at Shen Chongming with a sad face and say.

"Well, it's good that time is pressing." Shen Chongming frowned, and now he not only has to find a way to get Wang Gao and Jue Changan to voluntarily stay in North Korea, but also has to find a way to bring Li Sunsin, who is in his picture, into account.

"My lord, outside the tent, the Jeolla Province Navy Festival envoy Yi Sunsin asked to see him." Just when Shen Chongming was worried, the guards reported in the account.

"Ah, please." Shen Chongming's expression was overjoyed, he hadn't seen Li Sunsin for a few days, and he didn't know why he came to find him this time.

"The last general, Yi Sunsin, meet Lord Shen." Li Sunsin is still the same, although he is already very familiar with Shen Chongming, but every time he sees him, he has to make a big salute.

Shen Chongming smiled, stepped forward to help Li Sunchen and said, "Lord Li, you must promise this official today, and this courtesy will not be so heavy in the future." ”

Yi Sunsin promised with his mouth, but he did not take this to heart. The so-called difference between respect and inferiority, Lord Shen has a lot of kindness to himself and his brothers, and he can't be less polite.

During the interval between ordering someone to sit and serve tea, Shen Chongming could already see from Li Sunchen's appearance that he had come to find him something, and immediately asked with a smile: "Lord Li, what is the matter with you coming to this official?" ”

Li Sunsin smiled and said with a flushed face: "My lord, the lower officials came this time, but they have something to ask for. It's just that...... Alas. ”

"Hehe, Master Li has something to say, what else can't be said between you and me." Shen Chongming pondered for a while, and guessed Li Sunsin's intention, it must be that the grain and grass in the department were not enough.

"My lord, there is not much food in the army, it is only enough for my Jeolla Province Navy Army for three days, and the lower officer has no choice but to come to your lord for help." When he said this, Yi Sunsin was not depressed and embarrassed.

In fact, before coming to Shen Chongming, he had already gone to Li Futong, who was waiting for news of peace talks in Incheon, three times, if not for anything else, but to ask him to allocate grain and grass for his troops and horses. However, although Li Futong's attitude is much better than before, he just does not let go of his mouth in this matter, and always shirks it in every possible way.

After all, Li Futong is the boss, although Li Sunsin is also extremely angry because of this, but there is nothing to be done. There is no way, so I can only ask Shen Chongming here.

Why this happened, Shen Chongming could guess without thinking about it. "Hehe, didn't the official agree to you a long time ago about the grain and grass, if you need it, you can just come and get it."

"Your Excellency's kindness, the subordinate officials and their brothers will always remember it." Yi Sunsin's gratitude was overflowing, and he almost burst into tears.

"Hehe, Lord Li is polite, we are good friends, if you have a problem, how can I Shen Chongming stand by and watch" Shen Chongming's face was full of pride, and then smiled: "Lord Li, forgive this official for saying too much, is this Li Futong dissatisfied with you, otherwise he wouldn't always be embarrassed by this matter." ”

Li Sunchen paused, then sighed and nodded: "What the lord said is right, and the lower officials also feel that the prime minister has a bad tooth for the lower officials. But why is this, Xia Guan couldn't think of it after thinking about it, and he was really distressed. ”

"Alas, the merit is high." Shen Chongming picked up the teacup and muttered, seemingly talking to himself, but his voice happened to be heard by Li Sunsin.

Yi Sunsin's face changed instantly, and he opened his mouth but swallowed back his words.

Seeing off Li Sunsin, who was full of thoughts, Shen Chongming couldn't help laughing: "Oh, God really helped me, this Li Futong is really a good helper." ”

"My lord, what are your schemes?" Brother Erdan asked with a licking face.

In a good mood, Shen Chongming didn't care about the lack of words, and said with a smile: "Erdan, immediately send people to spread rumors in various places, just say that Li Sunchen is arrogant and intends to establish himself as the king." ”

Brother Erdan was stunned for a moment, and said hurriedly: "My lord, why spread such rumors, are you planning to frame Li Sunsin?" But you and he are not ......"

Shen Chongming stretched out his hand to interrupt his words, and said mysteriously: "Don't ask so much, my lord, I did this to save his life." You have to do this as soon as possible, if it's too late, we won't have time to get him out of danger. ”

Brother Erdan didn't dare to ask more, so he went out to arrange this matter after answering yes. Although this errand seems simple, it is even more difficult to do it without leaving a trace in a foreign country, which Brother Erdan knows very well in his heart.

"Tsk, God bless." Shen Chongming muttered, feeling a lot more relieved. After all, there is already a way to do this, and the certainty of success is not small, just wait patiently.

Before the good news of the second egg arrived, Shen Chongming was confused by Jue Chang'an, who came to visit late at night, could it be that he also had something to ask for himself?

"Lord Shen, please forgive the officials for daring to ask what reward the imperial court has for my right guard in Jianzhou this time?" As soon as he entered the house, Jue Chang'an went straight to the point, and he must not give Shen Chongming a chance to think carefully.

"This ...... Hehe, of course there is. This time, you have made a lot of contributions to the establishment of the state and the three guards, and this official has already presented it to the emperor, and I believe that the reward will come down in a few days. Shen Chongming said with a smile, he had to stabilize them now.
