Chapter 277: Guanning Iron Cavalry

"If Zu Dashou can't do it, there is still one person. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info" Jiang Beiming said again, "Wu Sangui." ”

"Beiming, do you think Wu Sangui can do it?" Zeng Guangxian asked, "He was the biggest traitor later." ”

"Guangxian, that's later." Jiang Beiming said with a smile, "Wu Sangui and his father Wu Xiang also have a part of the Guanning Iron Cavalry in their hands. When the Kong Youde rebellion was quelled the year before last, Wu Sangui became a guerrilla general and was only 20 years old. According to the original history, he will be promoted to a general next year, and at this time, Wu Sangui still listens to the Ming Dynasty government. ”

"So, let's set a tone first." Zhang Guodong finally said, "Since the General Staff Department has come up with this battle plan, and you don't have any principled disagreements, let's follow this plan first." Zhaolong, you prepare for the opening first, the Ming Dynasty's order may come down at any time. Wang Hua, do your best to engage in intelligence in the Northeast, and you must figure out Tao Min's plan. Beiming, you have to work hard to go back to Beijing, and try to move the imperial court to transfer part of the Guanning Iron Cavalry to Yulinbao. Without them, our strength would not work. ”

"Chairman Zhang, I'll go back to Beijing in a few days." Jiang Beiming said embarrassedly, "I applied with the committee, and I want to take Han Susu and the child back to Beijing together." ”

"Hahahaha." Everyone laughed together, and Xu Lang patted Jiang Beiming, "Beiming, lonely again?" ”

"Beiming." Zhang Guodong asked, "Is it safe for you to take your wife and children to Beijing together?" ”

"There's nothing wrong with security." Jiang Beiming replied, "I will go back with my wife and children this time, and Chongzhen can still put snacks." ”

Jiang Beiming took Han Susu and the child back to Beijing after walking for more than a month.

After Jiang Beiming, Han Wantao, and Zhang Hai introduced the situation in Yulin Bay, they immediately went to visit Lu Xiangsheng with Han Wantao. Jiang Beiming felt that before discussing with Wang Chengen and Wen Tiren, he should listen to Lu Xiangsheng's opinion.

After Lu Xiangsheng returned from Guihua City to relieve the siege of Beijing, he continued to lead the army to clear out the peasant army of Li Zicheng and Gao Yingxiang.

"Subordinates, see Lu Shuai." At Lu Xiangsheng's temporary residence, Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao knelt down together to pay respects.

"Two generals, please get up." Lu Xiangsheng stepped forward and pulled one with one hand, "Last time I said goodbye, the old man missed the two of them very much. ”

"Thank you Lu Shuai for your concern." Jiang Beiming replied, "My subordinates learned that Lu Shuai had returned to Beijing, so I came to see him before, and my subordinates missed Lu Shuai very much. ”

The two sides sat down and exchanged a few polite words, and Lu Xiangsheng asked, "The two generals don't know what happened to the old man today?" ”

"Return to Lu Shuai." Jiang Beiming said straight to the point, "Lu Shuai knows, our Yulin Army has planted a few eyeliners in the Tartars outside the pass, and according to the news that came back, the Tartars are likely to enter the customs again next year, and the place of entry is in Xuanfu Town." ”

"Really?" Lu Xiangsheng was surprised how Jiang Beiming could have such important information, "General Jiang, this matter is not trivial, is the news accurate?" ”

"It should be accurate." Jiang Beiming said, "And the time for the Tatars to enter the customs should be in January next year." ”

"Next January." Lu Xiangsheng pondered for a long time, "Don't hide it from the two, there are many people in the court who impeach Chen Qiyu now, and long live means that they want to replace Chen Qiyu with Governor Hong." If Chen Qiyu is really replaced, then next January should be the time to go all out to eliminate the Liukou, and at this time, the Tartars will enter the customs? ”

"Lu Shuai, my subordinates are here for this matter." Jiang Beiming said, "If Lord Hong goes all out to eliminate the Liukou next year, then our Xuanfu Town area will definitely be empty." And according to the information we have received, the Reverse Gold Tartar has also invited some Western craftsmen from Nanyang, and they now have a certain number of guns and artillery, and the range is no worse than that of our Yulin Army. ”

"They've got firecrackers too? The range is the same as yours? Lu Xiangsheng was surprised, "If that's the case, I'm in danger." ”

Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao both looked at Lu Xiangsheng and didn't speak.

Lu Xiangsheng realized that he was a little out of shape: "Two generals, you came to find the old man today, you must have already solved it, right?" ”

"Back to Lu Shuai, I can't talk about the way to crack it, and my subordinates have some ideas that I still have to ask Lu Shuai to decide."

"General Chiang has something to say, please speak."

Jiang Beiming replied: "Lu Shuai has been fighting against the Liukou in Shaanxi, and Lu Shuai must also know that if the Liukou are not eliminated, it will definitely be a big trouble for the imperial court." In January of next year, Governor Hong will make every effort to eliminate the rogues, and the number of Tatars entering the customs may be in the tens of thousands. Don't hide it from Lu Shuai, the elite division of my Yulin Army is only five or six thousand people, and it is still stationed in three places. The subordinates were humble and light-hearted, so the subordinates were willing to ask Lu Shuai to talk to the imperial court to see if they could transfer all the elites of the Yulin Army to Xuanfu Town in order to meet the Tartars. ”

"All of your elites are going to Xuanfu Town?" Lu Xiangsheng looked at Jiang Beiming in surprise, "General Jiang is loyal and patriotic, and the old man admires it." ”

"And, Lu Shuai." Jiang Beiming said again, "I can't stop the Tartars with thousands of Yulin troops alone, and the main force of the imperial court wants to clear out the Liukou." Therefore, the subordinates also wanted to ask Lu Shuai and the imperial court to suggest if they could transfer part of the Guanning Iron Cavalry to Xuanfu Town. If there are them, then it will be no problem to block the Tartars. ”

"Do you want to move the Guanning Iron Cavalry?" Lu Xiangsheng hesitated.

"Is there anything wrong with Lu Shuai?" Jiang Beiming asked.

"Don't hide it." Lu Xiangsheng replied, "The Guanning defense line is the gateway of my Ming Dynasty, if this portal is lost, I am afraid that the world will be shocked." Even if the imperial court agreed to send a part of the Guanning iron cavalry, these Liaodong soldiers have always been unruly, and if they go to Xuanfu Town, I am afraid that there will be a lot of incidents. ”

"This Lu Shuai rest assured." Jiang Beiming said, "The Tartars must use all their strength to enter the customs, after all, they have too few people to divide their troops to fight, and there is no problem with the Guanning defense line." As for those Liaodong generals, as long as Banzai sends a capable general to strictly control them, his subordinates think that they will not act recklessly. Isn't it safe when we go to Naturalization City? ”

"General Jiang has raised the old man." Lu Xiangsheng said with a smile, "It's all because of your Yulin Army's good auction in Naturalization City. The old man now also knows a truth, as long as there is money to be made, no one will want to fight. ”

Jiang Beiming suddenly stopped talking, and Lu Xiangsheng's words just now suddenly reminded Jiang Beiming, can you do some business with Wu Sangui's Guanning Iron Cavalry? If he can do business with Wu Sangui, then Yulin Jun may have one less rival and one more friend in the future.

"General Chiang." Lu Xiangsheng didn't know what Jiang Beiming was thinking, so he asked, "Have you talked to Elder Wen Ge and Wang Gonggong about the old man's suggestion today?" ”

"Back to Lu Shuai, not yet." Jiang Beiming came back to his senses, "My subordinates want to report to Lu Shuai first." ”

"General Chiang is serious." Lu Xiangsheng stood up and said, "This matter is very important, especially if you want to move the Guanning Iron Cavalry, you can't do it without absolute certainty." The old man thinks that General Jiang should first sit on the news, and then go to report to Wen Ge Lao and the prince, they still value your Yulin Army very much. If the old man has the opportunity, he will also mention the issue of the Tartars outside the customs with the Long Live Lord, after all, they have broken the level several times. ”

"So, thank you Lu Shuai." Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao took their leave and returned to the camp of the officer training corps.

"Beiming, just now at Lu Xiangsheng's place, when Lu Xiangsheng talked about the auction of Naturalization City, I saw that you seemed to be stunned, what were you thinking at the time?" In the office of the teaching group, Han Wantao asked Jiang Beiming.

"Lu Xiangsheng's words reminded me, and I was wondering if we could do some business with Wu Sangui." Jiang Beiming said as he took out a cigarette brought back from Yulin Bay. Now the cigarettes in Yulin Bay have begun to be mass-produced, but the output is not large, and they are basically bought out by the old smokers among the traversers, so they have not been sold to the outside world. Jiang Beiming also brought some to Han Wantao and Zhang Hai when he returned to Beijing this time.

"But what kind of business can he do with Wu Sangui, and what will he lack?" Han Wantao also took out a cigarette and threw one to Zhang Hai.

"I don't know, I just have this idea."

"If you really want to do business with Wu Sangui." Zhang Hai stared at the cigarettes thrown by Han Wantao, "Then just sell him cigarettes, the Liaodong soldiers all smoke." ”

"yes, sell him cigarettes." Han Wantao shouted, "Wu Sangui will definitely want it." ”

"I'll talk about that later." Jiang Beiming's mind is not on business now, "It's November now, and I'm going to go to Lushun to trade with Tao Min in another month, and I don't know how Tao Min will react when he finds out that he has been fooled, so we have to hurry up." Wan Tao, you and I have to find Wen Tiren and Wang Chengen when we have time, and we have to let them know the possibility of entering the customs in the next year of the Ming Dynasty. ”

A few days later, Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao finally found a chance to meet Wang Chengen.

"The lower officials see the prince." Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao gave Wang Chengen a salute together.

"Don't be polite to the two generals." Wang Chengen's tone seemed to be very cold, "The two of them are dedicated to training the Divine Machine Camp for the Long Live Lord, and it is very hard. ”

"The father-in-law is serious, this is the duty of the lower officials." Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao don't know why Wang Chengen's attitude has changed so much.

"You two may be seated." Wang Chengen sat down first, "I don't know what the two of you are looking for our family today?" ”

"Back to my father-in-law." Jiang Beiming replied, "Xiaguan has just received an important piece of news, and the reverse gold tartar may be detained again next year. ”

"General Chiang is really capable." Wang Chengen's tone was still unhurried, "General Jiang can get such important news." ”

Jiang Beiming didn't answer, he really couldn't understand why Wang Chengen had this attitude today.

"General Chiang. General Han, our family has done our best for you remnants of the Song Dynasty. ”

"That's, that's, everything has Grandpa Lao." Jiang Beiming didn't know what Wang Chengen was going to say, so he could only echo it.

"But you two, you're not doing it right." Wang Chengen's face changed suddenly, "Our family doesn't hide it from the two of you, our family and Wen Ge Lao have received a lot of excerpts from you these days." Xu Lang, as a guerrilla general canonized by the imperial court, has been stranded in Yulin Bay under the pretext of family affairs and has not returned. Zhou Guerrilla and Wang Guerrilla recruited troops to expand the army in the garrison without authorization, and sold firearms. And you, General Jiang, left the Shenji Battalion and returned to Yulin Bay for more than a month. Long live Lord is not very comfortable hearing about these things. ”

"The prince and the princess." Jiang Beiming hurriedly stood up and replied, "These things are indeed for a reason. ”

"Our family also knows that you are thinking about the court." Wang Chengen's attitude finally softened, "Long live the master, our family has also spoken for you." ”

"Thank you, Princess." Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao thanked at the same time.

"General Chiang." Wang Chengen suddenly asked, "What does Lord Lu think about next year's Tatar detention?" ”

Jiang Beiming's heart was shocked, Dongchang and Jinyiwei were really powerful, and they couldn't hide anything from them.

Jiang Beiming didn't explain, and replied directly: "Lu Shuai feels that this matter is very important, and let the lower officials be sure to confirm this news." ”

"General Chiang doesn't have to think about it." Wang Chengen finally smiled, "Yesterday in the court, Lord Lu and Long Live Lord played this matter, so our family only knew that the Tartars might enter the customs next year." ”

"I see." Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao put a little snack.

"But we know too." Wang Chengen continued, "This matter must have been told by you, Lord Lu, and our family also wants to hear what you mean, after all, you are still loyal to Banzai and the imperial court." ”
