Chapter 111: Recruiting Female Soldiers
Early the next morning, Chongzhen took Tianziwei to leave Xuanfu again.
This emperor should be like a general, and he is becoming more and more disagreeable, and only people like Zhu Houzhao can endure the hardships of marching!
When I arrived in Shanxi, I must rest for a few days and enjoy the treatment of the emperor!
Also, I want to recruit 3,000 beauties in the harem...... Ah no, it's three thousand female soldiers.
The history of Shanxi can produce many peerless beauties who have captivated the country and the city, including Diao Chan who fascinated Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu against his eyes, Wu Zetian, the emperor who created the Zhenguan legacy, Ban Jieyu, who is the embodiment of beauty, wisdom and virtue, and Yang Guifei who made Tang Xuanzong use the power of the whole country to send lychees to Bo Hongyan with a smile. There are so many beauties in Shanxi, I don't collect more, what is worthy of my hard work for so many days!
In the matter of recruiting female soldiers, let Liu Ru take Wang Dahu to do it.
So, when he was resting, Chongzhen called Liu Rushi and Chen Yuanyuan, as well as the generals of Tianziwei, to have a small meeting.
Chongzhen said to them: "We are ready to go to Datong, this Datong general Jiang Jiu is different from Wang Chengyin, the Jiang family is also a generation of generals, Jiang Huang has a very thick foundation in Datong, Li Zicheng once wanted to kill him but in the end did not dare to touch him a single hair." Do you have any good plans? β
Wang Dahu said: "Your Majesty, isn't this simple? Let that Jiang Hao go out of the city to greet him, and then kill him, isn't it over! β
Liu Feng immediately denied Wang Dahu's strategy and said: "The emperor said that Jiang Hao has a deep foundation in Datong, and Li Zicheng doesn't dare to kill him if he wants to, so we can't kill him directly, after Jiang Huang dies, his subordinates will definitely rebel." β
"Instead, we'll fight!" Wang Dahu said disappreciably: "Let those anti-thieves see the power of our spear!" β
As soon as Liu Ru heard about the war, he also hurriedly said: "Datong is nominally under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and if you fight with Datong, it will be civil strife, and many people will die!" β
Chen Yuanyuan knew that Liu Ru had gone to Chongzhen, and sneered: "The emperor is going to fight a war, if he is afraid of the dead, then what is he going to do?" β
"You!" Liu said a "you", but he didn't know what to refute.
Chongzhen saw that Liu Ru and Chen Yuanyuan were going to have a contradictory relationship, thinking about whether this woman wanted to go to heaven after PP with Chen Yuanyuan in the past two days, so he suppressed her and said: "We have 5,000 people, Datong 50,000 horses, not to mention whether we can win, even if we win, the casualties on both sides are also very heavy, and besides, all the people in Datong are dead, who will guard Datong?" Do I want to send the Heavenly Son Guard from the capital to guard it? β
Chen Yuanyuan saw that Chongzhen dismissed her, and stopped talking very interestingly.
Men are all the same, they say they love you for a lifetime in bed, and then they don't admit it immediately, and they are really ruthless!
Liu Ru saw that Chongzhen was with Chen Yuanyuan, but he didn't stand on Chen Yuanyuan's side, and said to Chongzhen gratefully and admiringly: "The emperor's love for the people and the concubines are deeply admired!" The concubine thinks that we can let the art troupe perform and slowly influence the soldiers of Datong! β
Chen Yuanyuan saw that Liu Ru was so naΓ―ve, and seized the opportunity and hurriedly said: "No, Jiang Hao has a deep foundation and a large number of people, if he is slowly reformed, the example of Wang Chengyin will reach his ears, he will definitely rebel, when the time comes, 50,000 people will fight 5,000 people, and we will definitely lose!" β
It is not possible to arrest directly, it is not possible to fight a war, it is not possible to reform, and everyone does not know what to do.
Chen Yuanyuan secretly looked at Chongzhen and found that the emperor was not in a hurry, thinking that the emperor must have a countermeasure, and calling them over was just to let them implement the emperor's plan, so he said: "Your Majesty, you must have a plan!" β
As soon as Chen Yuanyuan said this, everyone looked at Chongzhen, and Chongzhen said: "I do have a strategy to outwit. β
Liu Ru and Wang Dahu asked puzzledly: "Your Majesty, how can we outwit it?" β
"Actually, outwitting is very simple, I give you a task, and if this task is completed well, we can easily take it down!"
"Your Majesty, please speak!"
"After entering Shanxi, I want you to help me recruit 3,000 female soldiers!"
Wang Dahu asked puzzledly: "Your Majesty, don't we have female soldiers in the art troupe?" Why do you need to recruit female soldiers? β
Liu Ru also wanted to say: "What does recruiting this female soldier have to do with outwitting?" β
She couldn't understand the emperor's operations, thinking of the emperor and Chen Yuanyuan, as well as the Wei Chunrou in the palace, as well as the two female Jin Wuwei, and the way the emperor looked at her, she was a pervert. Now we are also recruiting female soldiers, and one move is three thousand! Where are the 3,000 female soldiers, it is clearly the 3,000 beauties of the harem!
But thinking so badly about the emperor, Liu Ru was embarrassed to say it, because there are many good things about the emperor.
"You know Zhou Yuji, the chief soldier of Shanxi!"
Wang Dahu likes to listen to Zhou Yuji's story the most, and hurriedly said: "I know, this Daming newspaper in the capital said that he was brave and good at shooting, killed a lot of Qing demons, and was promoted from an ordinary soldier to the chief military officer of Shanxi, and Ning Wuguan repelled Li Zicheng's 100,000 army many times with thousands of people, and he is a model for our soldiers!" β
Liu Ru also said: "Zhou Yuji is heroic, and his wife Liu is also a woman who does not let Xu Mei, leading twenty women, killing hundreds of enemies, and finally running out of bows and arrows, and going to the fire to die!" β
Chongzhen nodded and said, "We got more than one million taels of silver in Xuanfu, and there is a lot of food, which is enough for the army to eat." If we enter Shanxi, hype the useless male soldiers of Datong, and 50,000 soldiers and horses will surrender to Li Zicheng, it is not as good as Zhou Yuji's twenty female soldiers, so the emperor decided that since the men of Datong are useless, then recruit female soldiers in Datong, and all female soldiers who can be conscripted into the army will be paid one hundred taels a year. β
One hundred taels, many soldiers are paid less than twenty taels a year, but everyone is not surprised, Tianziwei's military salary is very high.
Everyone thinks that the emperor's plan is very good, but there is one person who doesn't know what it tastes like, and that is Yang Yuanyong.
Yang Yuanyong heard Chongzhen say that "Datong male soldiers are useless", so he said ashamedly: "Your Majesty, the last general is also a Datong person, the last general is ashamed, and the last general will follow the emperor to the death and die on the battlefield!" β
Chongzhen comforted Yang Yuanyong and said: "General Yang knows this truth, and the soldiers of Datong don't know anything, if we use female soldiers to humiliate the soldiers in Datong City like this, then Jiang Jiu's reputation in Datong will also be ruined!" β
Yang Yuanyong looked at Chongzhen gratefully, and he secretly swore that he must kill the enemy bravely and correct the name of the Datong man!
After hearing this, Wang Dahu felt that this was no different from what he said about directly arresting Jiang Jiu, so he asked: "Your Majesty, this is no different from what I just said, what if Jiang Huang leads troops to attack us?" β
Seeing that Wang Dahu was so unenlightened, Liu Feng hurriedly said: "As the so-called name is not good, what you just said, Jiang Huang's people will say that the emperor does not treat the soldiers well, and some people will rebel." And the emperor recruited female soldiers, obviously to humiliate the soldiers of Datong, but actually to humiliate Jiang Xuan, if Jiang Huang brought people here, it would be a rebellion! Our sharpshooters will not dare to come near. If he doesn't bring someone here, then the emperor will publicize it like this, and the soldiers of Datong will work hard for Jiang Jiu again, and we can take him down directly! β
"Oh!" Wang Dahu seemed to have suddenly realized.
But Chongzhen looked at him like that, and he still seemed to understand! But forget it, the purpose of recruiting female soldiers has been achieved, there are no beauties in Shanxi, wait for me, I will see you soon!
Tut-tut!
