"What Qian Ge Lao said is true. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Another person came out to refute, "If it is not my race, its heart will be different." Qian Ge Lao also knew that these two people were overseas barbarians, and now at the feet of the Son of Heaven, they dared to be so presumptuous in front of Long Live Heaven, if they were reused, it would not be my luck. ”

There was another quarrel in the court, only Wen Tiren looked at his nose and his nose, and stood quietly and silently.

"Elder Wen Ge." Chongzhen directly named Wen Tiren, "What do you think about this matter?" ”

"Long live the return." Wen Tiren saw Chongzhen asking him and had no choice but to reply, "The minister thinks that the two of them are not enough to worry about, but Yulin Bay needs the attention of the Lord Long Live." The cabinet of Chen Yingyuan, the governor of Denglai, has been voted on, but the celebrant has not approved it. ”

"Really?" Chongzhen asked Wang Chengen, "Why don't you stay in China?" ”

"Back to the master." Wang Chengen hurriedly leaned over and replied, "The minions have been busy with the inspection of the Divine Machine Camp for the past few days, so it has been delayed. ”

"Find out right away when you go back."

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, Chongzhen carefully watched Chen Yingyuan's recital several times, and then asked Wang Chengen: "Wang Chengen, what do you think of Chen Yingyuan's suggestion?" ”

"Back to the master." Wang Chengen responded, "Chen Yingyuan's idea itself is not a problem, Dengzhou City is indeed short of major generals now. If the Yazhou Sailor can be transferred to Dengzhou, the Dengzhou Sailor can be rebuilt, which is also good for preventing Tartars. It's just that the minions feel that although these people in Yulin Bay in Yazhou are ambitious, they are also unruly, so arrogant and fierce, the minions are worried that Chen Yingyuan is not easy to control, so they stay in the middle and do not send it. ”

"You have a point." Chongzhen asked again, "What do you think of the cabinet's opinion?" ”

"Back to the master." Wang Chengen replied, "The meaning of the cabinet is that it hopes to disperse the troops in Yulin Bay, station them in various places, and transfer their main forces to Beijing or Xuanfu Town, so that on the one hand, they can guard against the Tartars, and on the other hand, they can also watch them. But the minions think that this opinion of the cabinet is not complete. ”

"Oh?" Chongzhen asked, "Why?" ”

"Long live the lord, the slave has personally been to Yazhou and Yulin Bay. The minions had also carefully investigated during those days in Yulin Bay, and those remnants of the Song Dynasty in Yulin Bay had close contacts with the local magistrates, and they were similar to the Hongyi people in Haojing. They have their own militia groups, which ostensibly obey the dispatch of thousands of households in Yazhou, but in fact they are in their own right. Moreover, before the slave came back, he arranged people from Dongchang in Qiongzhou Mansion and Yulin Bay. According to the news that has been transmitted back so far, after Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao left, Yulinwan began to recruit troops on a large scale in Qiongzhou Mansion, and there were quite a few of them. ”

"Do they want to be disobedient?" Chongzhen's suspicious personality is revealed again.

"Don't worry about it, master." Wang Chengen said, "At present, there is nothing unfavorable in Yulin Bay. Now they are sparing no effort to fight against the Tartars, and the minions think that this may be the reason why they suffered from the loss of their country back then. ”

"Why do you think the Cabinet's opinion is inappropriate?" Chongzhen pulled the question back again.

"Back to the master, the minions saw their militia when they were in Yulin Bay. Their military establishment and training methods are completely different from those of our Ming army, and they can train a strong force in a few months. If these troops in Yulin Bay are stationed in various places, then they can completely re-recruit and train in Qiongzhou Mansion, and this team will not be able to break up. ”

"Wang Chengen, what do you think should be done with Yulin Bay?" Chongzhen asked.

"The minions are thinking about this these days, too." Wang Chengen replied, "For Yulin Bay, it is necessary not only to use it for me, but also to guard against them. Therefore, the minions felt that they could transfer part of the army in Yulin Bay to Xuanfu Town and Datong Town according to the opinion of the cabinet, and let them guard against the Tartars and deal with the Liukou. Transfer some more generals to Beijing, so that they can separate their generals, second, they can also help Wan Sui Ye train our Ming army in Beijing, and third, the power of Yulin Bay can be limited to Qiongzhou Mansion. As for Dengzhou, some Yazhou sailors can be transferred, but the number cannot be too much, and Chen Yingyuan must be able to control it. ”

Chongzhen was silent, and thought about Wang Chengen's suggestion several times: "Don't criticize Chen Yingyuan's recital first, you master of ceremonies and the cabinet will discuss it, and then probe Jiang Beiming's tone, and then make a decision." ”

"The minions obey." Wang Chengen replied.

Three days later, Wang Chengen and Wen Tiren hosted a banquet for Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao. The venue of the banquet was still at Wen Tiren's house.

"Ladies and gentlemen." Wen Tiren first raised his glass, "Today, the prince can go to the banquet in person, making the humble house shine, I salute you." ”

Wang Chengen dusted his sleeves: "Our family hasn't come to visit the elder pavilion for a long time, and the elder Wen Ge works hard every day to relieve the worries of the long-lived lord, which is really the mainstay of my Ming Dynasty." ”

The two of them touted each other, Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao could only raise their glasses and echo in agreement.

"Both." Wang Chengen put down his wine glass and began to talk to Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao, "The last time the Shenji Camp was reviewed, the two of them sang a good show for our Long Live Lord." ”

Jiang Beiming didn't understand whether Wang Chengen was praising himself or criticizing himself in this sentence, so he didn't dare to answer, so he had to say haha: "I am presumptuous, everything depends on Wang Gonggong and Wen Gelao." ”

"Huh." Wang Chengen laughed twice, "The two of you, one guerrilla and one thousand, have stirred up my Ming court, and you really have some skills." ”

"Princess." Han Wantao clenched his fists, "Xiaguan is just thinking about the Ming Dynasty and Long Live it, and Xiaguan doesn't think about other things so much." ”

"Han Qianhu, don't worry too much." Wang Chengen said with a smile, "That's what our family says, but if it weren't for Elder Wen Ge to speak, I'm afraid you two would have been involved." ”

"Really?" Jiang Beiming pretended to be surprised, "Xiaguan thank you for taking care of the old Wen Ge." ”

"A little thing." Wen Tiren waved his hand, "But the two of you, Banzai is a little concerned about what you did last time." ”

"I don't know how to get into it?" Jiang Beiming asked.

After Wen Tiren finished speaking, he smiled but didn't answer, and Wang Chengen took over: "Although Lord Banzai is a little dissatisfied with what you have done, Banzai knows that you are a heart to serve the country. Long live the Lord said, if my Ming soldiers are like the two, if my Ming army is like Yulin Bay, then I have no worries. ”

"Princess, Elder Wen Ge." Jiang Beiming really couldn't understand the meaning of these two people's words, so he asked, "Please forgive the lower official for being stupid, can the two adults give the lower official a clear point." ”

"Hahahaha." Wen Tiren and Wang Chengen laughed at the same time, and Wang Chengen said, "Let's talk to you about it." Long Live Lord also knows the current shortcomings of our Ming army, and Long Live Lord also asked about the current situation in Yulin Bay. Our family didn't hide it, Long Live Lord knew the Hongyi people of Haojing. ”

Wang Chengen suddenly stopped talking when he said this, and looked at Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao with a smile.

Jiang Beiming hurriedly said: "Wang Gonggong Mingjian, Xiaguan and others are different from the Hongyi people in Haojing. Although we have lived overseas for a long time, we are also the remnants of the Song Dynasty and the descendants of China. ”

"Jiang Guerrilla is too worried." Wang Chengen said with a smile, "Our family also said this to Long Live Lord, and Long Live Lord also knows it in his heart." Long live the Lord now means that he wants to transfer a part of your Yulin Bay militia to Xuanfu Town and Datong Town to defend the Tartars, and it is best for you to also send a part of the water division to Dengzhou to assist Chen Yingyuan, the Dengzhou Water Division is now short of major generals, and it is very difficult. ”

"And." Wen Tiren continued, "The old man has also discussed with the Ministry of War, and they hope that you can send some generals with troops to Beijing to help them train the army together. ”

Jiang Beiming stood up and left the table with his fists clenched: "Thank you, long live the grace, thank you to the prince and the elder Wen Ge for raising it." We will do our best to repay the court. ”

After the banquet ended, Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao found a reason to go to Ge Tao's restaurant again.

Ge Tao was not in the restaurant, Jiang Beiming and the counter shopkeeper asked for paper and pencils, and began to write letters to Yulinwan in the back secret room.

Han Wantao looked at Jiang Beiming and scratched his head: "Beiming, why do I think this thing is a little strange." ”

"What's wrong?"

"We originally meant to use the power of the Ming court to transform the army against the Manchus, I thought it would be difficult, but now it seems to be very simple. We don't need to take the initiative to mention it, they will say it first. ”

"Is happiness coming too suddenly and you can't accept it?" Jiang Beiming looked up and smiled, "Don't worry, our family made speculations before we left, Chongzhen will definitely not rest assured that there is such an army in Yazhou." But he definitely doesn't want to destroy us now, you know this, Chongzhen means to prevent us and use us. ”

"I know the truth." Han Wantao was still very puzzled, "But why did Chongzhen transfer our army to Datong and Xuanfu, and also to Dengzhou?" ”

"Divide and conquer." Jiang Beiming put down his pen, "Before we go, Lu Lao emphasized this point again and again, how can you forget it." Chongzhen will definitely divide and conquer us, and then win them over separately. Didn't you listen to what Wang Chengen said, the army went to Datong and Xuanfu, the sailors went to Dengzhou, and the generals went to Beijing. This is the way to disperse us, Zhao Kuangyin, the soldiers do not know the generals, the soldiers do not know the soldiers, and the soldiers will be separated. ”

"So what do we do? Chongzhen's move is ruthless enough. ”

"It's okay." Jiang Beiming put the written letter into the bamboo tube and sealed it again, "This letter is sent back to Yulin Bay, and the family will come up with an idea." In fact, this is also an opportunity for us, Datong and Xuanfu are nothing, but we can use this opportunity to control Dengzhou. With Dengzhou, we have a rear base, which is much more reliable than Nampo in North Korea. Chongzhen is using us, but we are also using Chongzhen and using each other. ”

"But if we transfer all our troops, what will happen to the family?" Han Wantao was still not at ease, "The mixed brigade has suffered heavy losses this time, and if the army is transferred to the north, then there will not be many troops in Yulin Bay." ”

"I also said this in my letter." Jiang Beiming raised the bamboo tube in his hand, "I suggest to my family that Zeng Guangxian and Lin Zhaolong increase their conscription." Wang Kezong is almost 100% cooperative with us now, and it is best for us to control the entire Hainan Island. If this is the case, then even if the entire mainland cannot hold it in the future, we can rely on the Qiongzhou Strait to defend Hainan Island. This is our last base and must not be lost. ”

There was a sudden knock on the door, and Ge Tao pushed the door and walked in.

"Ge Tao." Jiang Beiming handed over the bamboo tube in his hand, "Send it back to Yulin Bay as quickly as possible." ”

"Yes, sir."

Ten days later, Jiang Beiming's letter was placed in front of Lu Tianxiang and Zhang Guodong.

"Guodong, it seems that we are going to form an officer training corps."

"Elder Lu, the teaching regiment is good to say, the Military Commission has been prepared for a long time. It's just that the size of this teaching regiment is appropriate, and how many troops from Datong, Xuanfu, and Dengzhou have been transferred? ”

"You're the chairman of the Military Commission." Lu Tianxiang smiled, "It's better for you to make up your mind." ”

"Otherwise, Lu Lao." Zhang Guodong suggested, "It's better to have a meeting, and it's better to have a meeting." (To be continued.) )
