General Shi is right, although it is a decision made by him alone to mobilize the army in such a big way, but other people, including Shi Youcai, will also be affected.

Wang Laohu also has nothing to do.

King Ning's attack on Anqing was imminent, and the capital was exposed in front of King Ning, but Wang Laohu had no way.

"General Shi, I know it's a little difficult for you now, and everyone, if we do this, we may bring disaster to ourselves, but if we don't do this, King Ning will capture Anqing and Liudu, do you know the consequences?"

"Is there only our Hangcheng Guard in the entire Ming Dynasty, General Wang, if there is a rebellion in Hangzhou, we are duty-bound, the capital wants us to deal with King Ning, we are duty-bound, but now we have these, no, there is no order, we can't act privately, this is the red line."

The red line, of course, Wang Laohu knows that this is the red line.

"General Shi!" Wang Laohu finally couldn't help it, "This matter is related to the safety of Daming, I can't take care of so much, come here." ”

Several guards rushed in through the door.

"General Wang, what are you going to do here?"

"Time is running out, I have to move troops to save Anqing immediately, offended."

"You...... You are rebelling, you know, if you do this, what is the difference between you and King Ning. Shi Youcai said.

"Lock General Shi up." The guards who rushed in immediately arrested General Shi.

"General Wang, you have to think twice."

"I've thought it through, I'm doing it on my own, and it's none of your business."

"Don't be naïve, do you think that this has nothing to do with me, and you can't escape from me if you move troops." Shi Youcai said.

"Take General Shi down and entertain him." Wang Laohu ordered.

put Shi Youcai under house arrest cleared the way for himself to send troops, but Wang Laohu knew that he was simply a nameless soldier when he sent troops to Anqing, and it was not clear what responsibility he would have for this matter in the future, and now he had to take one step at a time.

Wang Laohu gathered the generals of the guard.

This was a voluntary outburst ceremony, and it was not authorized by the Ministry of War, nor did he get the permission of the emperor, so he didn't want to hide anything from the generals in the guard.

"Generals, I have an important matter to discuss with you today, which is related to the safety of the Ming Dynasty and also to the plastic bags on the generals' own necks. Wang Laohu said.

"General Wang, we are the generals of the Ming Dynasty, we should contribute to the Ming Dynasty, the so-called raising troops for a thousand days, using the troops for a while, we are ready, please give the general an order."

Wang Laohu nodded to the general who had just spoken, this general should be conscious, but after listening to the latter words, whether he would have such a high consciousness as just now, Wang Laohu couldn't tell the difference.

"Well said!" Wang Laohu first affirmed the general, "Please listen to what I have to say, and then make a decision." King Ning of Jiangxi set up his own banner and wanted to be the emperor, he killed the governor of Jiangxi, Li Press, and Xu Ting, the deputy envoy of the inspection, and appointed himself the prime minister of the left and right, and the secretary of the military department, he wanted to call himself the emperor, and he was plotting rebellion. ”

The generals below all whispered.

"Rebellion?"

"He is King Ning. King Ning's rebellion is already a fact. When they quieted down a little, Wang Laohu continued: "Now that he has broken through Jiujiang and Nankang, and is heading towards Anqing, maybe he is fighting a decisive battle with the defenders of Anqing. ”

"The general wants to fight in Anqing?" A general asked.

"Every time King Ning occupies a city, he will kill the generals there, or capture them alive, and if Anqing is defeated, King Ning will go straight to the capital of Daming. Therefore, I am going to send troops to Anqing. Wang Laohu said.

"Cross-government operations, can there be authorization from the Ministry of War?" General One asked.

"On the first day of King Ning's rebellion, I asked General Shi to go to the capital and report the situation to the Ministry of War, but I have not received any news from the Ministry of War so far." Wang Laohu said truthfully.

"So the general didn't get the authorization of the Ministry of War."

"My generals Chang Yuchun and Qishun have both been sent by me to Jiangxi to stand by less than fifty miles from Nanchang. I will send troops in two steps, on the one hand, to intercept King Ning in Anqing, and on the other hand, to attack Nanchang. Wang Laohu said.

"I know that General Chang is your general, and he can go with you every day, but the people in the guard station have to be mobilized in a large area, and they have to go to the outer house, and we can't go without the order of the military department." There is a general's road.

"You're right, I didn't get a response from the military department, so I sent someone to the capital to see the emperor, but there is no news so far."

"Are we empowered?" Another general asked.

"I'll tell you the truth, no."

"No?" The general below whispered again, everyone knew that not being authorized meant that he was acting privately, and what was the difference between this private and Wang Ning's rebellion.

"Generals, rules are meant to be observed, but it depends on the specific situation. If we know that the king is wrong, but we stick to the rules of the battle and do not do it on the grounds that there is no order, are we still worthy of being a soldier of the Ming Dynasty? Lord Yushi Wang, he is a highly respected adult, I believe that some people here have also heard of his prestige, he has raised the banner of righteousness and crusaded against King Ning, if he is afraid of the east and the west, will he still do this? ”

"We can't fight without authority." One general said, and many of them were embraced, "Yes, yes." ”

"The country is in trouble, and the husband is responsible, we don't have to rely on the military department for everything, and we will not be outside the army, and if the emperor knows about this matter, he will definitely support my actions today." Wang Laohu said, "I asked the generals to come today, just to beg the generals to put the overall situation first and come out with me."

Bing Anqing, crusade against King Ning. ”

"General Wang, this unauthorized battle is going to lose our heads, we don't want to lose our heads."

"What does this matter of King Ning have to do with our Hangzhou, whether it is Jiangxi or Anqing, they all have their own officers and soldiers, what kind of hearts are we copying here." Another general said.

Many generals did not speak, and Wang Laohu knew that in their hearts, most of them did not agree to send troops to fight, which was a normal idea.

"Do you know why General Shi didn't come today?" Wang Laohu asked.

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, I don't know why General Shi didn't attend today's meeting.

Seeing that everyone was speculating or doubting, Wang Laohu said: "General Shi, like you, has his own ideas, he sticks to the rules of the formation, and he does not agree with me to send troops. So I locked him up. ”

"Locked up? General Wang locked General Shi up. The general whispered again, and this time he was even more surprised.

"You don't have to panic, I also understand your thoughts, I understand General Shi, I don't want to agree with my idea of sending troops, I locked up General Shi, on the one hand, because he didn't agree, on the other hand, it was also to protect him, this crime of sending troops is not trivial, and I don't know how the above will deal with it, so I detained him, the whole thing was done by me alone, and it has nothing to do with General Shi." Wang Laohu said. "A good man serves the court, for the Ming Dynasty, I am not reluctant to you, if you agree, please make a statement, if you don't agree, I will not force you."

Seeing Wang Laohu say this, everyone knows that Wang Laohu is for everyone to choose. But now it's best for everyone to do it.

"I'll give you some time to think about it, but not too much." Wang Laohu said.

After touching half a pillar of incense, Wang Laohu said to everyone: "If you want to send troops to Anqing with me, please stand up if you want to fight against King Ning." ”

As soon as Wang Laohu's words fell, one general stood up, followed by five or six more generals one after another. Wang Laohu nodded, at such a time, there are still these generals who are willing to stand up, and these generals don't seem to be of a very big grade, because they are the generals in the back part.

"Okay, it is worthy of being my king Tiger's soldiers, and there are no bad breeds in our Tiger Army." Wang Laohu asked the general who stood up first, "What's your name?" ”

"Back to the general, the last general is called Qiu Shihuai."

"Okay, Qiu Shihuai." Wang Laohu wrote down his name, "Other generals, this general does not blame you, but in order to protect you, you will also be locked up in one place, and I will release you when I return in triumph." ”

"General Wang, you can't do this to us." There is a general's road.

"There is a reason for it, and now is an extraordinary time, and there is no way to do it." Wang Laohu said, "When this matter is over, I will let you out." ”

These generals were detained by Wang Laohu.

Wang Laohu wanted to do a big thing, and without the approval of the capital, he wanted to send troops to Jiangxi to block King Ning, effectively disrupting his steps and laying the foundation for the final defeat of King Ning.

Wang Laohu's Mansion.

"Feng Sheng, now we haven't received the order from the military department, but time can't wait, King Ning has broken Jiujiang and Nankang, and is now concentrating on attacking Anqing, if Anqing is lost, the remaining capital will be directly exposed under King Ning's nose."

Feng Sheng was worried about what Wang Laohu said, and he said bluntly: "Childe, if you do this, you won't be able to turn back." ”

"I know, I know." Wang Laohu, "But there is no way now." ”

"Childe, with all due respect, King Ning is in turmoil, he committed a crime in Jiangxi, and now he is in Anhui, and we have nothing to do with Zhejiang, do we look at the next situation, maybe there will be news in the capital soon." Feng Shengdao.

"Can't wait, can't wait. Soon after I return to Hangzhou, King Ning will attack Anqing, and I am afraid that Anqing will not be able to hold on for many days. ”

"But, have you thought about it, Childe, if you take all the soldiers and horses in Hangzhou away, Hangzhou is empty, and there are thieves to attack and attack, what do we use to resist? If you leave some soldiers and horses behind, and you don't have enough soldiers, how can you fight with King Ning? Feng Sheng said.

"You're right, isn't there no way to do it now?" Wang Laohu said, "I plan to take 50,000 soldiers and horses, and the others will continue to stay in Hangzhou." ”

Feng Sheng nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Childe's mind has been decided, and I will no longer persuade him, this matter is not a trivial matter, and it may even affect Madame." ”

Feng Sheng reminded him kindly that what Wang Laohu is doing now is also a crime of rebellion, and the crime may also affect his family or relatives. "That's what I'm worried about right now." Wang Laohu admitted, now he can't let them go, "Feng Sheng, of course I bear the guilt of one person, and my relationship with my clan relatives is inseparable, there is no way, I want to ask you to fly pigeons and pass the book immediately, let the mountain seals come back, once I have something, please please take my clan relatives and old mother to a safe place." ”

"Under the whole world, it is not the imperial land, where does the prince want me to take them?" Feng Sheng asked.

"You're right, the things of the whole world are not the emperor's land, but there is always a place for them, you go all the way to the west, bring the old lady, my clan to Yungui, where the mountains are high and the clouds are dense, maybe you can escape."

"How does Childe plan to arrange the ladies?"

As soon as Wang Laohu heard Feng Sheng talk about his wife, their shadows immediately appeared in his mind, Feng Liu'er, who was able to write and martial arts, and was reasonable, "'Childe, I will be your person soon, if you have anything to say, please say.'" Feng Liuer said.

'Today is a big day for me and you, I shouldn't have said these words, but I don't want you to regret it, I'm going to ....... today' Before Wang Laohu's words were finished, Feng Liu'er interrupted him and said, "Today is a good day for me and you, whatever you want to do, I promise you." ’”

"Wang Laohu really wants to sleep, Feng Liu

Er hugged in his arms, Feng Liuer is a woman with kung fu, seeing Wang Laohu hugging herself into her arms, she waved a fist at Wang Laohu, Wang Laohu didn't expect Feng Liuer to come to this trick on the wedding night, Wang Laohu was pushed away by her on the other end of the bed. Wang Laohu had no choice but to play tricks, he also made a move Li Zhen Dai Tao, and attacked Feng Liu'er with one hand, Feng Liu'er resisted with one hand, but kicked with one leg.

Wang Laohu thought, what a fierce man, it seems that the training uniform still needs some wrists. He blocked Feng Liu'er's foot with his right hand, and the person jumped up with the momentum, and then rushed forward, Feng Liu'er dodged and leaned to the side, Wang Laohu stretched out his hands and hugged her waist from behind. ”

There is also a noble second lady who was born in a Qinglou, and has the wisdom that a little woman does not have, and can write and quotient. Cheng Cheng said: 'To solve this matter, as long as they let their own people fight in their nests, they will not get angry, but on the contrary, they can watch a lively scene? The little girl is only a shallow learner, and she doesn't understand the mysteries, and I believe that the son will definitely participate. ’”

"'Since the old lady wants to listen to poetry, then I will be ugly.' It was Cheng Cheng who spoke, 'Tonight, the family is in the moon, and the feast is in full swing. The lonely guest who knows the hometown alone. It's rare to be grateful, and the chant is endless. Thousands of wines should be divided to wash away a hundred years of worries. ’

The old lady was shocked, and she took a closer look at this woman, this woman in the Red Moon Building, who could also recite poetry, which she never expected. ”

There is also the third lady who has a hard life, she was robbed into the house by herself. There are also four ladies and five ladies. These people all flashed in his mind, Wang Laohu's eyes were red and wet, he wiped his eyes with his cardiopulmonary resuscitation hand, and said to Wang Biao: "Bring a pen and paper." ”

Wang Biao took a pen and paper, wrote on the paper, he wrote several sheets in a row, and handed them to Wang Biao.

Feng Sheng asked, "Childe, do you want to divorce your wife?" ”

When Wang Biao heard what Feng Sheng said, he was also taken aback, because he now knew that Wang Laohu loved his woman very much, and he didn't expect that at this time, he would do something to divorce his wife.

"Wang Biao, you have followed me for many years, and now I will send you back to Telly, you will stay in Telly, if anything happens to me, please protect the old lady, and Feng Sheng will protect the old lady all the way to the west."

"Childe, I won't leave you, I've followed you since I was a child, I'll go wherever you go?" Wang Biao cried.

"There is no such thing as a feast, do you know what I am doing now? I have no turning back, you follow me when you are young, so I am at ease with you. So the old lady asked the two of them. Wang Laohu said.

"Childe ......" Wang Biao is of course more emotional.

"Okay, Childe, leave the affairs of the family to me and Wang Biao," Feng Sheng said, "But, has Childe ever thought about how to deal with King Ning?" ”

"Fifty thousand soldiers and horses, if you have time, you can arrive before King Ning captures Anqing, my people and the guards of Anqing can always reach King Ning for a while, and when there is really an order from the capital, let General Shi and them come to Anqing together and join me." Wang Laohu said.

"I know." Feng Sheng said, "But now that there are no reinforcements, does Gongzi have any good strategies to retreat from the enemy?" ”

"King Ning's rebellious heart has been going on for a long time, and this time he is fully prepared, not only with the participation of people from the rivers and lakes, but also with the gathering of some other county kings, the strength should not be underestimated." Wang Laohu said.

"Other county kings?" Feng Sheng read, "This is King Ning's advantage, but also his disadvantage. ”

When Wang Laohu heard this, he asked, "How do you say this?" ”

"In the face of the same interests, maybe they will be united, but no one can guarantee whether they are really united, maybe we can work these county kings."

"Stir up their relationship?" Wang Laohu felt that this was one of the methods, but now that the war had started, it was not easy to separate them.

Could there be any other way?

Feng Liuer and Bian Chengcheng of Hangzhou successively received Wang Laohu's letter of resignation. Feng Liuer was very surprised to receive Wang Laohu's letter of resignation for no reason, and Bian Chengcheng did the same, and the two of them reacted the same: "Is this true?" ”

Wang Biao said: "It's true. This was given to me by Childe himself. ”

"No, you tell me, why did Xianggong divorce me?" One is in the house, the other is in Bian Yifang, they all asked Wang Biao like this.

"I don't know."

"I'm going to ask my husband in person." They both asked.

"Childe is no longer in Hangzhou."

"Where did he go?"

"Before the son left, he told me that you should find Feng Sheng if you have something."

Night.

"Madam, the son asked me to tell the two of you, Hangcheng Bian Yifang is jointly owned by Mrs. and the second lady, the eldest lady belongs to Mrs., and the two ladies in Hangcheng Mansion can continue to live." Feng Shengdao.

"Feng Sheng, tell me honestly, why is this resignation so sudden?" Bian Chengcheng asked.

"I don't know why Childe did this? In addition to the two ladies, the third and fifth ladies of Telly, the son has also written a letter of resignation, and I am planning to send it to the house tomorrow? Feng Sheng said.

"Xianggong, is he crazy?" Feng Liu'er said, "Wang Biao, Feng Sheng, you two tell me, where did he go?" ”

"Madame Hui, Gongzi didn't tell us where we were before he went out." Feng Sheng looked at Wang Biao and glanced at him.

"If you don't say it, I'll go to the guard tomorrow and ask General Shi about the whereabouts of Xianggong, and he should be clear." Feng Liuer said.

"Madam, General Shi has been arrested by Gongzi." Feng Shengdao.

Hearing such news, the two of them were stunned again, they no longer knew what Wang Laohu was doing. Bian Chengcheng asked, "Wang Biao, what is Xianggong doing?" ”

Feng Sheng said: "Second lady, don't ask or care about this matter, and don't spread the news about what happened in the guard. ”
