"My lord, there are eight hundred miles to expedite." Wang Laohu was in the guard house when a soldier walked in from outside, and at the same time he took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Wang Laohu.

Wang Laohu took the letter and said to Feng Sheng: "Let people entertain this messenger." ”

Feng Sheng led the people out.

Wang Laohu took the letter, this letter came from the capital, Wang Laohu knew that this was likely to be the emperor's reply, the emperor replied to himself, and it is very likely that he also replied to Linhai Mansion.

Wang Laohu opened the letter, and when he opened the letter, Feng Sheng also returned to Wang Laohu's room.

The content of the letter is very much in line with Wang Laohu's meaning, this time the emperor did not blame himself, but greatly appreciated his decision to go to Linhai to fight against the pirates.

His actions were finally approved by the emperor.

But Wang Laohu understands that there are many uncertain factors around the emperor, and there are many Liu Jin's minions around him, but now he can write letters and reply, which explains some problems, maybe the emperor has some freedom, some room for flexibility, or maybe there are other possibilities, judging from this situation, there is still some progress.

Wang Laohu no longer thinks about the story behind this letter, this letter meets his own requirements, and with the emperor's will, this teacher will be famous, and it will come in time.

"Childe, is there any news from the emperor?" Feng Shengdao.

"The emperor just sent me news and agreed with me to do this." Wang Laohu said, "The difficulties of Linhai are not for him alone, and the difficulties of one place are also for us as a whole in Zhejiang." ”

"With the emperor's will, the prince can show his strength."

Wang Laohu nodded and said, "Yes, the division is famous." ”

"What are the chances of that son winning this time? You just heard about the sea disaster over there, and you didn't go to the field to check or contact them, you don't know what this opponent is, but this time you sent the eldest brother and they sent troops, Childe, this is not like the cautious you. Feng Sheng was skeptical.

"Your caution is right, Brother Yuchun went over there, facing the opponent, you can learn about their situation through many channels, and I also explained something to him."

When he heard this, Feng Sheng said incomprehensibly: "We haven't seen Haikou at all, how can you explain to my eldest brother?" ”

"Have you ever heard of the unpredictable prophet, now these pirates are just their vanguard, and there will be more pirates to disturb my Ming in the future, so this first battle must be fought beautifully. These people are very difficult to entangle, although we have a lot of Ming soldiers, but there is still more power to deal with these people, I taught Chang Yuchun some effective methods for them, I hope to help them. ”

"Childe can command soldiers hundreds of miles away while staying at home, if he can win the battle, it is not only like a god, but also a command like a god."

"When will Feng Sheng start patting horses?" Wang Laohu added, "The most important thing is that they can win this battle."

It's not in vain that I've worked so hard. ”

"Yes, Childe. I believe that the big brother will be able to win. Feng Sheng said.

"In the past few days, Qian Kebai, how is the situation on Qian Liangyu's side?" Wang Laohu asked.

"Qian Kebai may have known that there was a problem with the people he sent, and he had already sent people for the second time, and this time he was different from the last time, he sent people out of the mansion in the second half of the night."

"This money is in vain, and he still doesn't change his life, I'm going to teach him a lesson this time." Wang Laohu said a little angrily.

"This person is going to King Ning to complain, that's an ironclad fact, if he finds that this operation has failed, he will send a third group, a fourth group. We are so passive that we can't prevent it. ”

"That's true, I'm going to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger." Wang Laohu explained to Feng Sheng.

At this time, a soldier came in and reported: "General Wang, General Shi is visiting." ”

"Let him in." Wang Laohu said to Feng Sheng as he spoke, "You do what I say." ”

Shi Youcai entered the room, and Wang Laohu greeted him: "General Shi, please take a seat." ”

Shi Youcai sat down.

"General Wang, just now the emperor sent me a letter, praising you for sending troops to help Linhai Mansion fight against the Haikou Invaders."

"General Shi is here for this." Wang Laohu asked. He knew that he should have other things to tell him when he came this time.

"General Wang, I'm not talented in Shi, I went to the Hangzhou Guard to be your deputy and sent troops to Linhai Mansion, this is also a big deal, if there is no letter from the emperor, I don't know that General Wang has such a big decision." Shi Youcai said.

Wang Laohu understood that when Shi Youcai said this, he emphasized that he was a deputy, and a deputy had the right to know about it, but Wang Laohu did not consult with him, but directly sent people to fight, there seems to be a complaining meaning here, and the deeper meaning is that the emperor sent him to make them a good partner.

"The use of soldiers is fast, the Haikou in the sea has been in the sea for several days, and the Taizhou Mansion has written to the emperor several times, indicating that this matter is urgent. I knew that the soldiers of the guard station had their own business, and it was more important to protect the family and the country than anything else, so I sent my three brothers, Chang Yuchun, to go alone. I also knew that they were also from the court, so I wrote a letter, hoping to get the emperor's approval. ”

"The emperor was taken aback by your move."

"General Shi, what do you mean by that?"

Shi Youcai lowered his voice and said softly: "No one in the Ming Dynasty dares to do this, and only you dare to do this, and the emperor does not blame you, this is full trust in you." ”

"General Xie Shi reminds."

Shi Youcai waved his hand, indicating that he was not welcome.

"I just became an official, and I don't know a lot about officialdom yet, and I still need General Shi to mention it on the side." Wang Laohu said, "No, in the guard

Is there some resentment towards me? ”

"Many of the soldiers in the guard station are former generals, and General Wang still has to work hard to control the situation all at once."

Health Clinics Meeting.

Wang Laohu held a meeting with a dozen generals, which was the second meeting since he took command of the guard.

"It's been so many days since Wang came to the health center, and he didn't get together with his brothers and have a meeting, why? There are several reasons, one is that I have just arrived at the health center and I don't know much about the situation inside, so I need to get to know it well. Second, the generals have better qualifications than me, so this meeting has been delayed again and again, and it has come to this day. ”

"General Wang." General Han stood up and said, "Since it's a meeting, then we can talk freely, I heard that we also sent troops to Linhai Mansion this time, I wonder if there is such a thing?" ”

"It does." Hearing Wang Laohu's answer, the generals below began to discuss.

"General Wang, the last general is brave, Hangzhou Mansion and Linhai Mansion do not interfere with each other, do not govern each other, how can our Hangzhou Guard Station send troops to Linhai? Isn't this a mess of the rule of law? General Han asked. This question is not only shared by General Han, but also by many other generals.

"When you send troops to the sea, do you discuss with the soldiers, and do you have any imperial decrees from the emperor?" Another general stood up and asked.

Wang Laohu smiled.

Shi Youcai said: "General Wang is the new commander, of course he understands the legal system. This time, he sent troops to Linhai, and he got the emperor's imperial decree, and without the emperor's will, General Wang would not dare to come nonsense if he had ten dares. ”

"Although we are the Hangzhou guard, but also the soldiers of the court, this time there are Haikou openly disturbing my sea frontier, harming my people, all my Ming soldiers have the responsibility to protect the homeland, whether it is the soldiers of the sea, or my generals of Hangzhou, in the face of such a big right and wrong, there is no Hangzhou, there is no sea. We are all the people of the Ming Dynasty, and we should unite with the outside world and fight the enemy together! Wang Laohu said.

"Has General Wang ever been to Linhai?" General Han asked.

"I haven't been there yet."

"I haven't been there, do you know that this is a foreign enemy, not an internal strife?"

Wang Laohu smiled and said: "Although I have never been to Linhai, the news I have heard from all sides is that the clothes of this group of pirates are different from those of the fishermen along the coast of our country, and the words are also different, this is one of them; Second, there are countless other sea robbers coming in a steady stream, my Ming Dynasty has always been safe, the people are happy, where along the coast there are so many sea disasters all at once, so I think these people are foreign enemies. ”

Some generals on the field agreed with Wang Laohu's statement.

"Since the general is going to send troops, I also have to discuss with the generals sitting here, who should be sent to fight, and how to fight?" General Han said.

"The matter is urgent, General Wang is not not discussing, he discussed it with me, and made a decision immediately." Shi Youcaidao.
