Chapter 93: Worries
Mao Wenlong's concerns are not groundless, but well-founded. When he was in Dongjiang, he needed to face the Later Jin Dynasty and the imperial court, and at the beginning, if he turned against Yuan Chonghuan.
Then he may only have two ways to go, one is to fight with everyone, whether it is the imperial court or Houjin, all of them will be beaten.
And the consequences of this can be imagined, and the possibility of being destroyed can be said to be 100%. Although the tens of thousands of subordinates of the Dongjiang Army were all brought up by him, you must know that once he stands on his own, there will be very few tens of thousands of subordinates who can follow him.
Rebellion is not a trivial matter, once defeated, no one can be spared, and it is even more common to implicate the clansmen.
And the other way is naturally to take the subordinates who are willing to follow him and surrender Houjin. But this road is not easy to walk, after all, he Mao Wenlong has worked with Houjin in the Dongjiang River for so many years, and he has killed countless Tartars.
Even if Huang Taiji is willing to accept him Mao Wenlong, it is estimated that his subordinates who are deeply affected by it and have a deep hatred with Mao Wenlong will definitely not let him have a good time.
After many considerations, Mao Wenlong chose to abscond elsewhere and develop incognito to survive.
Fortunately, some of the old subordinates in Dongjiang Town still followed, but to Mao Wenlong's regret, there were still two generals missing.
These two people are Shang Kexi and Kong Youde, both of whom are resourceful and brave generals, and they were Mao Wenlong's right-hand men before.
If these two people came to help, the court and the hungry people would not have to worry at all!
Chen Jisheng was inexplicable, he really didn't know why Mao Wenlong was so sentimental all of a sudden, and even his tone of voice was outrageous.
This is not the performance that Mao Wenlong should have at all, as the supreme commander, he exudes such an emotion. If the soldiers below knew about it, the morale of the Dongjiang Army would definitely fall to the bottom.
Chen Jisheng frowned and said solemnly: "Although my subordinates don't know why the general army has no confidence in our Dongjiang Army, judging from the current situation, our situation is very optimistic. ”
Mao Wenlong was slightly slighted, he understood what Chen Jisheng meant, he was indeed too decadent. Packing up his mood, Mao Wenlong returned to normal, and a smile resurfaced on his face: "You're right, at least our current situation is very optimistic, it's me who is too worried!" ”
Hearing this, Chen Jisheng was relieved, he Chen Jisheng was just a third-rate person in Dongjiang Town. Now he has finally become the number two person in the army!
It was all hard-won, and he didn't want to lose it like that. Mao Wenlong gave him all this, so Mao Wenlong's every move affected him.
Without Mao Wenlong, he Chen Jisheng would be nothing, there is no doubt about it!
People go to high places, water flows to low places, Chen Jisheng can't talk about what kind of gentleman. His loyalty to Mao Wenlong is also based on interests!
But there is nothing wrong with this, and the loyalty that involves interests is the most stable. As long as Mao Wenlong can guarantee Chen Jisheng's interests, what does it matter if he Chen Jisheng gives him his life!
The two were silent for a long time, each thinking about it in their hearts, but Mao Wenlong suddenly spoke: "Jisheng, do you know the news of Kong Youde and Shang Kexi?" ”
Chen Jisheng was stunned for an instant, and his heart suddenly felt uneasy, the situation he had been worried about for so long finally appeared.
On the Dongjiang Army, who is most favored by Mao Wenlong, there is no one more than Shang Kexi and Kong Youde! The two are the main generals of the Dongjiang Army, and it can be said that Mao Wenlong can be like a fish in water in Dongjiang Town, and these two people have made great contributions.
"Lord Commander, this is ......."
Chen Jisheng, who was overturned in his heart, hesitated to speak.
Mao Wenlong stared at Chen Jisheng for a long time, and suddenly sighed softly: "I know your mood at the moment, don't worry, they can't replace you." ”
Chen Jisheng was seen through by Mao Wenlong, and his old face suddenly turned slightly red. But with Mao Wenlong's sentence, they can't replace you, but it makes him very excited.
With Mao Wenlong's words, it means that he, Chen Jisheng, will have a place in Mao Wenlong's heart in the future.
Without any worries, Chen Jisheng was also much more relaxed, and replied: "Don't hide it from the chief soldier, my subordinates have heard Xu Fuxuan mention it before, and General Shang Kexi is at odds with Shen Shikui, who was sent by Yuan Chonghuan to govern the Dongjiang Army. Soon after the commander-in-chief and I fled, they disappeared with thousands of their subordinates. ”
"As for General Kong Youde's whereabouts, I have never heard Xu Fuxuan mention it, and it seems that he disappeared shortly after General Shang Kexi disappeared."
Mao Wenlong frowned, so it seems that it is obviously impossible to find the two of them? After some consideration, Mao Wenlong had no choice but to give up the idea of looking for someone.
waved his hand to let Chen Jisheng retreat, and Mao Wenlong walked around the barracks alone. The pressure brought by Hong Chengchou to the Dongjiang Army was lifted, and the Dongjiang Army could return to its usual ordinary life.
The faces of the soldiers were filled with happy expressions, and Mao Wenlong's somewhat depressed mood was also infected by these soldiers, and he was much better.
walked around the barracks, and when he was leaving, he ran into Xu Fuzuo, Mao Wenlong finally couldn't hold back and asked him about Shang Kexi and Kong Youde.
As a result, Xu Fuzuo's answer was like a glimpse of Chen Jisheng's answer, and at this point, Mao Wenlong was completely dead.
Mao Wenlong returned to the city, and as soon as he entered Mao's mansion, he was sent by a personal guard who had just sent a letter from a spy in Luoyang.
Hurriedly opened it and glanced at it, Mao Wenlong found that the Shaanxi side was indeed as he expected.
Hong Chengchou did take over the post of governor of Yanghe's trilateral and has now begun to fight the rebellious peasant army with all his might. In just a few days, Hong Chengchou has quelled all the riots around Hancheng.
Now he is uniting the forces of other cities to continuously expand the results of the battle, if nothing else, Shaanxi will inevitably be temporarily calmed down in a month's time under the strong suppression of Hong Chengchou.
A smile appeared on Mao Wenlong's face, this is Hong Chengchou's typical new official who took office with three fires. He continued to behave so that he lived up to Ming Ting's expectations of him!
The last message in the letter attracted Mao Wenlong's attention, saying that Ming Ting was very satisfied with Hong Chengchou's performance. Chongzhen was also very generous, and allocated him a batch of grain and grass.
Such news should not attract his attention to Mao Wenlong, who no longer needs to worry about the lack of food and grass in front of him.
And what really caught his attention was the last sentence. Along with the army escorting grain and grass, there were also hundreds of brocade guards.
Hundreds of brocade guards were dispatched, there must be a reason for this, Mao Wenlong frowned, and he was a little flustered for no reason.
A trace of bad premonition quietly surfaced in his heart, and Mao Wenlong felt that he couldn't ignore these brocade guards!
