After the investigation of a case of exterminating the door, such a huge conspiracy closely related to the security of the border was actually involved, which surprised several important officials in the state yamen, and the only way that several officials could think of was to send this information to Datong quickly, and then everything was left to the boss yamen and the defenders there to decide.

But Lu Zhen obviously still has his own opinions, after listening to Tian Tao's story, he pondered for a moment, and then asked a question that made them a little puzzled: "What day is the lunar month today?" ”

"Today is the thirteenth day of the lunar month...... although he didn't understand why he suddenly asked such a question, Hao Guang still replied casually.

"Yes, today is thirteen, and Chinese New Year's Eve is only half a month away. Even if we send the news to Datong on a fast horse now, it will not be known to a few adults there until about the fifteenth, and they may not believe this unreasonable statement. Unless, we can send these people with us, but then there will be more time to travel on the road. Lu Zhen carefully analyzed the current situation.

After several subordinates looked at each other, they nodded in agreement. And Lu Jin's words are not finished: "In addition, there are only so many cards in Jin Junsheng's hand?" Since they have made up their minds to rely on the assassination of Hu Zongbing and several other important generals to disturb the hearts of our Datong army, wouldn't they have laid a lie in Datong as soon as possible? If the people there suddenly attack during this period, and General Hu has no preparations......"

Needless to say, the following words have made the hearts of several subordinates tighten tightly, which they really did not expect. Lu Zhen glanced at them and continued: "In addition, the point that this official mentioned before is still a problem, that is, if they have other accomplices outside, once they learn that their plan is leaked, will they intercept and kill us in the middle of the road?" Or would we simply make a desperate bet and launch this surprise attack before our border army is ready? ”

This kind of inference is indeed possible, but it is not something that these local petty officials present can give a solution. So after some entanglement, Xu Wentao said: "What does the adult mean?" ”

"Of course, the news must be transmitted back as soon as possible, and in addition to the future sneak attack of the Tartars, they may also report the assassination of Hu Zongbing and other important future assassinations, and as for those Tartars, they must also be sent to Datong as soon as possible. However, just in case, they will escort them as the murderers of the Huang family's murder case. ”

After hearing what he said, Tian Tao and the others were stunned for a moment, and then they were only yes for a while. That's why they reacted like this, just because Lu Jin's arrangement was not much different from what they had just suggested, just because he was the boss, so it was not easy to say it directly.

But Lu Zhen still had more important words to say: "And at the same time, since we in Ulzhou have known the possible movements of the Tartars one step earlier, we have to take action." ”

The words "Ah......" made the officials surprised: "My lord means to ......"

"Yes, staying in the city alone can't solve too many problems, and if we want to help Datong defend against strong enemies, we must go out of the city to stop their attack." Lu Zhen said calmly, while the other people looked at him and didn't know what to say, and even felt that he was crazy.

Everyone knows that the nomads on the steppe are good at attacking and the Han people are good at defending, and this is not a question of who is strong and who is weak, but is determined by their respective national characteristics. On the battlefield, they will also play to their strengths, the Han army always uses some city fortifications to compete with the powerful steppe cavalry, but rarely takes the initiative to go out of the city to engage the enemy head-on.

The only exception to this is Wei Qinghuo's illness in the Han Dynasty, and several northern expeditions of two generations of Taizu Taizong after the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Because the grassland at that time was somewhat weak compared to the Central Plains Dynasty, and the Central Plains army still had a strong cavalry team that could fight the enemy head-on.

But now, decades later, the border army of the Ming Dynasty has returned to its original appearance. Although there are 100,000 elite soldiers, they rarely take the initiative to attack. This is something that ordinary civilian officials know, because this is common sense in the military world.

And Lu Jin, today, actually proposed to take the initiative to send troops from Ulzhou to meet the invading Tartar army, which in the eyes of Xu Wentao and others is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, and they are looking for death.

Even if we don't mention the inevitable gap between cavalry and infantry, in terms of strength alone, there are only more than 1,000 men and horses in Ulzhou, and as far as those people confess, there are more than 30,000 soldiers and horses who came to attack, which is too far apart. If the two armies really met in the wilderness, with only one round of charge, the Mongolian cavalry would be able to wipe out the Ming defenders cleanly.

"My lord, please think twice." After enduring it for a while, Hao Guang finally couldn't bear it anymore and opened his mouth to dissuade him: "Rushing to send troops will not only help, but once the defenders in the city are empty, it will only bring disaster to Ulzhou City." "As a general judge of a state, he also has the responsibility of leading the soldiers and horses in the territory, so he is also familiar with some art of war, so he can naturally see how serious he is later.

"Yes, my lord, please take back your life!" When several other people saw him open his mouth, they also persuaded him. Although they are very convinced of Lu Jin, they still dare not agree on this matter.

Lu Zhen looked at their nervous looks and laughed unconsciously, he was still very satisfied with their reactions. Seeing Lu Jin's appearance, several people finally breathed a sigh of relief, at least their boss didn't seem to have an iron heart, so there was still room for redemption.

"Have you ignored one point, now the military power in Ulzhou City is not in the hands of me, the governor, and the soldiers and horses here cannot be mobilized by me with a word." Lu Jin's words made several other people stunned, and then they all laughed easily, yes, it seems that he is indeed a little worried too much, with Wang Qianzong's shrewdness and combat experience, how could he make such a serious mistake? Even if Lord Lu has a great friendship with him, he will not let him rashly lead his troops to attack regardless of the responsibility of defending the territory...... Right?

The three of them, who were already convinced, couldn't help but hesitate a little when they saw Lu Jin's calm smile, could Lu Zhizhou really let Wang Qian always obey orders?

"You are actually too worried, although this official is a civilian official, but he has also dealt with the Tartars once, don't you understand the difference between the enemy and us? If you go out of the city and confront each other head-on, not to mention that I only have more than 1,000 people and horses in Ulzhou, even if I have the same strength as the enemy, or even if I gather 100,000 elite soldiers to fight with one, I may not be sure of victory. Only then did Lu Jin solemnly explain.

"In that case, why do you still say that?" While several people were asking, they all stared at Lu Jin's face regardless of their dignity.

"Let me ask you, do you have to go out of the city to meet the enemy and fight the Tartars head-on?"

"This ......" The people looked at him hesitantly, obviously unable to turn around.

Lu Zhen smiled and said: "The intention of this official is to send troops to block their attack on Datong, that is, to do everything possible to delay them, so as to buy enough time for the Datong defenders to respond." When their surprise attacks and surprise attacks do not exist, Datong will naturally be able to defend it impregnably. ”

"But if you don't confront them head-on, how can you hold them back?"

"Well, there will be a way." Lu Zhen smiled mysteriously: "The official is so telling you this, just because I plan to go out of the city with Wang Qianzong at that time, so everything in this city will be handed over to you." ”

"Ah...... Think twice. ”

"Yes, my lord, you are a civil official, and it is better to leave such a thing as sending troops to defend against the enemy."

In the face of their dissuasion again, Lu Zhen waved his hand and refused: "No need to say it again, I have made up my mind!" ”

This decision did not come out of nowhere, but was the result of careful consideration. Because Lu Jin, he now needs to make some military achievements, so as to improve the weight of his speech in the court.

He still remembers very well that his performance in Guangling last time gave him the right to speak in front of the Son of Heaven, and now he also hopes to exchange this battle exploits for new rights!

Of course, Lu Jin's purpose is still for Daming, or for the catastrophe that Daming is about to face.

Although he was far away, he also knew how powerful Wang Zhen was now, and he had enough ability to influence the Son of Heaven to let him take charge of the invasion of the Ming Dynasty when the Wara army invaded the Ming Dynasty, regardless of the opposition of his ministers!

In the past, Lu Zhen was completely powerless about this. But now, he wanted to try again, to see if he could stop the recklessness of the Son of Heaven by his own efforts, as he had done a few years ago. But all of this needs to be won on the battlefield first, and now, it is a rare opportunity.

But this reason can't be told to anyone else, and even if he does, no one in the world will believe it. How could the Son of Heaven casually drive the expedition? In addition, if the Son of Heaven really goes on an expedition, it will only greatly increase the prestige of our Ming army, and make the Tartars outside the fortress invincible, how can there be a big defeat? If Lu Zhen insisted on saying this, he was afraid that without Wang Zhenzhi and his ilk, the subjects of the world alone would be able to say that he would die.

Therefore, he is the only one to carry this burden, and he can only try to change this history with his own enthusiasm.

The humble does not dare to forget the country, Lu Jin, as a small six-grade Zhizhou, reflects the weight of this sentence well with actions. However, the people around him couldn't understand him, at least in the eyes of Tian Tao and a few other subordinates, Lord Lu was thinking about meritorious promotion. In connection with his various performances all the way from Qipinzhi County, this point is even more confirmed.

Of course, in front of Lu Jin, they didn't dare to show this opinion, so they could only pray that Wang Bing Wang Qian would not be moved by Lu Jin's words and attack rashly!
