Chapter 706: A Few People Take Jiujiang
Wang Laohu has reached the designated position. At this time, he only brought 20,000 soldiers and horses, and he was still waiting for news from the capital.
"King Ning has finally moved." Wang Laohu read.
"Childe, are we going to attack Nanchang right away?" Qishun asked.
"Yuchun, do you think it's time to attack Nanchang?" Wang Laohu asked.
"King Ning has just left Nanchang, and we will attack, I don't think it's appropriate. First, we only have 20,000 soldiers and horses, and going to Nanchang is like hitting a stone with an egg. Second, if King Ning returns to Nanchang, we will have no way back. ”
"Yu Chun's analysis is reasonable, King Ning has just raised his troops, and his morale is high, so it's not the right time for us to move him at this time. Let's wait for the time being, waiting for news from General Shi of the capital city. ”
Capital.
Shi Youcai has been waiting for news from the Ministry of War, but there is no news, so Shi Youcai personally went to the Ministry of War to inquire.
The reply given by the Ministry of War was: "How do you know what has just happened?" It's better to wait and wait for the news to come. ”
Shi Youcai knew that the Ministry of War would not approve it in a short period of time, and now the fastest way is to go to the emperor, Wang Laohu said that let him go to see a little eunuch named Li Shun and let him take Zhou Liang into the palace.
Through a certain relationship, Shi Youcai quickly contacted the little eunuch, and the little eunuch told Shi Youcai to let Zhou Liang come here to find him in the afternoon.
Things seem to be going well.
This little eunuch is playing with a few other eunuchs in the palace, this is a little trick they usually play in their spare time, fighting crickets, I don't know which little eunuchs talked about it, fighting crickets, but also to get some money, happy and happy. It's good for everyone to hear it, and it's idle anyway.
"Xiao Shunzi, look at the money you have in hand, which master will reward you with this money." A little eunuch said.
"If you serve your master well, of course your master will reward you." Lee Shun said.
"Tell us which of these good masters we are." Another eunuch said.
"You guys, all of you are drama spirits, but my cricket is going to win again." Xiao Shunzi said.
Li Shun hummed a little song,
Walking in a corridor of the palace, a few people from Jinyi came to him, blocking his way, Li Shun saw the formation of this peg, turned around and left, and wanted to walk from the other side, but saw that a few people also appeared over there, one of them said: "Xiao Shunzi, where are you going?" ”
In Li Shun's hesitation, one person had already arrived in front of him, and he was so frightened that his legs were already weak.
Zhou Liang came to the designated place at the appointed time as agreed, it seems that Xiao Shunzi has not come yet, he waited for a while, and no one came, he seemed to feel an ominous call. He looked around, wanting to walk away from here, but he didn't expect that just as he was about to leave, a few brocade guards with knives appeared.
Zhou Liang stepped back from here, and he walked back. The brocade guards behind chased after them, they pulled out the knife in their hands, Zhou Liang pulled out his legs and ran forward, trotting for a while, he felt that he could no longer escape from the pursuit of these people, so he took out a note from his arms while running, and swallowed it into his mouth.
Wang Laohu waited for a few days, but there was no news from the capital, and he knew that there would be no news for a while. He summoned Chang Yuchun and others.
"There has been no news from the capital, and we can't wait any longer."
"Childe plans to attack Nanchang City right now?" Often meet the spring road.
"No, King Ning raised the banner of what seemed to be justice and demanded the emperor. Now that we are coming across the government, the so-called name is not right, the words are not good, and our troops are not enough to take Nanchang City. Wang Laohu said.
"Does Childe have a good plan?" Qishun asked.
"I'm going to wait for King Ning to capture Jiujiang."
Waiting for King Ning to capture Jiujiang, what kind of theory is this? Chang Yuchun and Qishun expressed puzzlement. "Capture Jiujiang, does this have anything to do with our attack on Nanchang?"
Wang Laohu knew that when King Ning defeated Jiujiang, the God of Flowers and other county kings would meet with King Ning, and after that, Wang Laohu hoped that the God of Flowers would be able to return to Nanchang, and then Wang Laohu would have a chance.
"I have already arranged this, but it must be after King Ning captures Jiujiang." Wang Laohu said.
"Are we not going to do anything now?" Chang Yuchun asked.
"Not really. We came to Jiangxi to learn from the unknown, so let the famous people do it. ”
"Childe has already figured out a way?"
"There is a great educator in Jiangxi, and I want to visit him."
"Great educators? Now, if there is a war, can the great educators come in handy at this time? ”
"You only know one thing, this great educator has too much aura on him, and he is virtuous and eloquent, so I want to meet him."
Chang Yuchun disagreed with Wang Laohu's idea at this time, fighting with King Ning was a real battle, how could a literati come in handy?
Just do it, Wang Laohu took Wang Biao and Chang Yuchun, and two escorts, to meet the official.
The adult Wang Laohu wants to see is also from Zhejiang, and coincidentally, he is also surnamed Wang. He received a post from his family.
"General Wang?"
"Yes, my lord, this General Wang is also from Zhejiang."
"I don't have anything to do with this General Wang, I don't know if he came to me for something." Wang Sizhong said, "Just say I'm out." ”
Jia Ding just wanted to go out, but was called back again, "Forget it, I'll go out of the house to greet me personally." ”
The door of the mansion was wide open, Wang Sizhong walked out of the mansion, Wang Laohu didn't expect him to go out in person, so he stepped forward and said: "Lord Wang, you always come to greet me in person, how can I go so carelessly." ”
"General Wang, you said that you came from Zhejiang, and a fellow villager came to see me, of course I had to do it myself
Come and greet you. ”
"I am fortunate to meet Mr. Wang, it is my honor." As he spoke, Wang Laohu bowed deeply to the great educator.
"General Wang is polite, please."
The two kings sat down in the living room.
"Mr. Wang is a great educator, and now he is full of peach and plum all over the world, and I particularly admire a great educator like Mr. Wang."
"I don't dare to be General Wang, and I can't be called a great educator, but my students are more competitive."
"I very much agree with the unity of knowledge and action of Wang Lao. Emphasizing the need to know, but also to act, know to do, and know in action. I am also practicing according to Wang Lao's thinking. ”
"Looks like you know me better. I don't know if General Wang came to talk to me about the unity of knowledge and action this time? ”
"Recently, a big event has happened in Jiangxi, do you know Elder Wang?" Wang Laohu asked.
"Something big is happening in Jiangxi? I wonder what happened? Wang Sizhong said.
Listening to his words, it seems that he doesn't know that a major event has happened in Jiangxi, and it is no wonder that the communication tools of the Ming Dynasty are not developed and have not yet reached this side, which is also a very normal thing.
"Just a few days ago, King Ning killed Li Press, the governor of Jiangxi, and Xu Ting, the deputy envoy of the inspection, and raised troops to attack Jiujiang."
Wang Sizhong said: "Why did he do this, what did he want to do." ”
"Does Wang Lao really not know?"
"If he kills the court officials, isn't he afraid that the court will blame him?"
"He's really not afraid." Wang Laohu said, "Not only did he kill the court officials, but soon he will appoint his people as prime minister and military secretary." ”
"He's rebelling." When Wang Sizhong heard this, he slapped the table suddenly.
"Elder Wang, don't get excited." Hearing Wang Laohu say this, Wang Sizhong sat down again, "Such a major news has happened for so many days, why I don't know yet." ”
"Many officials in Jiangxi have already submitted to King Ning, and this news has been sealed tightly, I think the capital may not know this news."
"Such a major event has happened, as a Ming courtier, of course, you must be loyal to the lord, others dare not stand up, I am an old man, I am afraid of what he will do."
"I know the heroism of Elder Wang, I came to visit you this time, just to your name, you old man roared, and the matter was justified."
"I'm very willing to take the lead, but I don't have many soldiers and horses under my hands, and it's not so simple to take down King Ning."
"If it were in Zhejiang, I could send 100,000 soldiers and horses, but in Jiangxi, I can't fight across borders. I have ordered someone to rush to the capital to ask for the authorization of the Ministry of War, but so many days have passed, and there is still no news. ”
"If you don't have soldiers and horses, how can you confront King Ning."
"Elder Wang, this time I came to Jiangxi, although I didn't bring enough 100,000 soldiers and horses, but I also came with more than 20,000 people."
"Okay, more than 20,000 people are enough."
Wang Laohu's temporary residence.
"Wang Lao is worthy of being Wang Lao, he does things vigorously and resolutely, and if he raises the banner of rebellion, we will be famous when we become a teacher." Wang Laohu said.
"But there has been no news in the capital, so will we take 20,000 people to fight him?"
"You don't know Wang Lao's other identity, he is not only an educator, he is also an outstanding military strategist, following him, the little King Ning is nothing."
"Childe said this, I was a little relieved. But these people are also the brainchild of the child, should we be more cautious in dealing with this matter. ”
"We're going to find the right moment, and what we have to do now is be ready and do it all right. If you want to fight, hit him with a blow. ”
"So what do we need to do now?" Chang Yuchun asked.
"There are a lot of things to prepare, first, always pay attention to King Ning's movements on the battlefield. Second, what is the movement in Nanchang City, we are going to end his lair, we must know the other side, and then we can seize Nanchang City in a targeted manner. ”
"Pay attention to Lord Ning's movements, King Ning is now leading people to attack Jiujiang, and we are so far away from King Ning's people, how can we get information from them."
"I've already arranged this, but it's not this thing that I'm most worried about now, I'm worried about General Shi and Zhou Liang in the capital. The two of them have been gone for such a long time, and there is no news so far, which is really worrying. ”
"General Shi just went to the military department, and if he wants to get authorization, there shouldn't be a problem." Often meet the spring road.
"Generally speaking, it should be like this, what I'm worried about now is that there are people in the court of King Ning, and now at this sensitive time, he went, will it." There is another point that Wang Laohu did not say, that is, Jinyiwei had already known about this matter, but he did not mention it, so at this time, it was inappropriate for General Shi to go, which was also the reason why Wang Laohu asked Zhou Liang to send a letter to the emperor.
But in the past few days, there has been no news, how can it not be worried.
"General, someone wants to see you." Someone outside the door said.
"Ask him to come in." Wang Laohu didn't know who it was, but at this time, there must be something.
"Pan Tai." It turned out that this trip, not only Chang Yuchun, Qishun's soldiers and horses, Wang Laohu also let Pan Tai come together, but they didn't know it.
"Childe, there's news in the capital." Pan Tai Dao.
I just talked to Chang Yuchun about the capital, but I didn't expect the news to come.
Wang Laohu took a note from Pan Tai's hand, but after reading it, Wang Laohu became uneasy, "There is news from the capital, I didn't expect it to be bad news, Zhou Liang was arrested by Jinyiwei's people." ”
"Zhou Liang was arrested, why? He didn't do anything bad. "I often meet the spring road.
"This is Kyung
City. Wang Laohu sighed, he also realized that it was no longer possible to go to the capital to seek the emperor's permission, and this road was artificially blocked. Jin Yiwei really wants to block this news, what are they doing this for? Zhou Liang fell into the hands of Jinyiwei, so what happened to General Shi, judging from the intelligence collected by the agents in the capital, Shi Youcai was not mentioned, indicating that Shi Youcai was at least safe.
The capital did not instruct, so it had to take this road honestly and use 20,000 soldiers and horses to fight against King Ning.
"Now it's almost certain that we don't have any more reinforcements, and now it's all on our own." Wang Laohu said.
"There should not be enough soldiers and horses in Nanchang City, and the people who want to go out of the city have gone out of the city to attack Jiujiang, why don't we send troops to attack Nanchang now, win the battle first, and boost morale." Often meet the spring road.
"Don't be in a hurry, when we find out the situation in the city, it's not too late to do it." Wang Laohu said.
Jiujiang.
Several armies have already arrived outside Jiujiang City, the people of King Ning, the people of the Flower God Society, and the people of other county kings.
"We have now surrounded Jiujiang City, how many soldiers and horses in Jiujiang City are less than one-tenth of ours, today we will go in on a big scale, take Jiujiang, and give the Dog Emperor a dismount." A county king's road.
"Jiujiang is our first battle, the first battle must be fought, we have now gathered several large armies, Jiujiang is isolated, we take it as easy as taking it in our pockets."
"Everyone is right, I am the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty. When I take Jiujiang, I will reward all the county kings, and I will appoint my prime minister and the generals. King Ning's heart was already full of ambition, and he thought that this matter was as simple as it was now.
Several large armies launched attacks on Jiujiang City from the southeast, east and west respectively.
Duanmu held an iron-blooded big ring knife and rushed into the ranks, and the defenders of Jiujiang had more than 30,000 people, and they resisted under the leadership of General Che Xun.
The iron-blooded big ring knife was aimed at the defenders and slashed over, and the huge blade slashed down, avoiding the defenders in front, and several soldiers fell in response,
Mu Huaying held the full moon scimitar in her hand, and also rushed to the forefront, two round scimitars flashed, silver light appeared, Ma Feng slashed across the chest of the defenders, and the two soldiers fell in a pool of blood.
The Flower God Society also participated in this battle, and after a period of training, these more than 20,000 people finally came in handy, and the female disciples charged forward like the male soldiers.
After several days and nights of fighting, King Ning's soldiers and horses finally captured Jiujiang, and General Che Xun and his lieutenant, who were in charge of the defense of Jiujiang, were arrested and soon beheaded and executed.
"Hahahaha, Jiujiang is simply vulnerable." King Ning entered Jiujiang as a victor, and in Jiujiang, he appointed his own left and right prime ministers and military department secretaries.
"We have a great victory, no matter which city it is in the future, it is like Jiujiang, and we will sit on Mount Tai in victory." Hou Pingdao.
"Today's victory, tonight in Jiujiang I will set up a banquet to entertain you, everyone have a good time." Ning Wang said.
"King Shainin." Everyone is in unison.
"Duanmu, you have people prepare for tonight's feast."
"Yes, General.
"Hou Ping, we entered Jiujiang, and we will also catch the main general and deputy general in the city and behead them, but there may be some bandits in this city, you go and get these people out, and whoever sneaks up on my soldiers will be killed." Ning Wang said.
"Yes, General."
"Fairy girl, this is the first time that your department has fought with us, this battle, I am very satisfied, all these years, I have not spent this money in vain."
The money that King Ning spent on the Flower God Meeting was only invested more when the meeting was just held, and later, it was the Flower God Association who raised King Ning, but the fairy said: "Lord Ning, our Flower God will have today, and it all depends on the Lord Wang's training." ”
"Hahahaha, don't go to Huaide in the future, when I lay down this country, I will seal you a city, and I will make you an official again, your hard days are over." King Ning said as he stared at the female disciple behind the fairy.
Behind the fairy, in addition to the left and right protectors, there were also two female disciples, and the right protector muttered in her heart, she hated this man from the bottom of her heart.
"I'm here to thank you for everyone." Fairy Road.
"Who is this girl behind you?" King Ning suddenly burst into a sentence.
"What are you talking about?" The fairy asked, pretending not to know.
"It's the one on your right."
The right protector was shocked, there were two girls on the right side of the fairy, one of them was the right protector, the fairy was also surprised, if King Ning fell in love with the right protector, she would be sent to the prince's room tonight, she knew the rules. The right protector is the person Wang Laohu fancies, if he fails to protect her today, maybe Wang Laohu will take a knife on himself.
Originally, the fairy didn't have too many ideas, and when she came to King Ning, she could tell Wang Laohu well, after all, King Ning was also a good backer, but with the development of time, Wang Laohu's guess about King Ning was also right, which made her hesitate, Wang Laohu seemed to have expected this rebellion, everything in his main valve became true, and she had to reconsider her future.
"Lord Wang, a few girls behind me are not sensible, I'll personally pick a few for you, how about it?" Fairy Road.
"Don't mother-in-law, mother-in-law, it's her." King Ning pointed to his hand.
The Right Protector found that King Ning was not referring to herself, but to a female disciple beside her.
Mu Huaying was also in the captured Jiujiang City at the moment, King Ning's people entered the city, and began to be powerful, they grabbed the people's things, ate and did not give money to become soldiers often too fast, and even more, as soon as the people resisted, they said that he was an old soldier of the former dynasty lurking in the city, and they were all killed.
Only now did she understand that what Wang Laohu said was right, but for her, there was no turning back.
