Section 307 The decision is made

Ji Qingwen had dealt with Shen Liangzuo a lot, and he knew Shen Liangzuo's idea of "hugging his thighs" clearly, so he said with a smile: "Although Grandpa Shen's idea is a little selfish, it is also secretly in line with me. ”

"So...... Brother Ji wants to gather the whole army to fight the whole army of the White Lotus Sect? Li Yan asked.

Ji Qingwen nodded, which can be regarded as an acknowledgement.

But I heard Li Yuanyin say: "It's not me who poured cold water on Lord Ji. Don't forget, Lord Ji, in addition to the three-way attack, there is also a large group of people coming to support. If our army is held together and does not move, I am afraid that it will be easy to be besieged by the opponent in several directions, and it will be dangerous. ”

Li Yuanyin's opinion is very pertinent, and it can be regarded as a wake-up call for Ji Qingwen, saying: "Commander Li is reasonable, but we are not alone. In this way, he also asked Commander Li to find a few capable brothers to go to the north of the Oujiang River and tell Liu Kongzhao and Han Zanzhou that the day of breaking the enemy was today, and he asked them to immediately cross the Oujiang River south and rush to help in the war. ”

"And." Li Yan added, "The team of Zou Weilian, the governor of Fujian in the south, told them not to cross the river to fight, but to garrison the Feiyun River, in case the dog jumped over the wall after the White Lotus Sect lost." ”

Li Yuanyin, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, is worthy of being a responsible senior spy, and after only a dozen days of work in Zhejiang and Fujian, he has reintegrated the Jinyi Guard organization stationed here, and specially selected a few people who are quick and reliable to run errands for him. So according to Ji Qingwen's request, he sent people to convey orders to the south and north respectively.

At this time, the Ming Wu Army, the White Pole Soldiers, and the sergeants of the Beijing Division Battalion had all finished eating and drinking, quickly sorted out their equipment, lined up the team, and waited for the commander to give an order, and they were going out to put down the rebellion.

Since the Ming Wu Army became an army, except for the battle of Jingshi of King Qinwang in the north, it has never suffered any big losses, and every time it has been a battle, it has quite a success, so the morale is very high, and when it is heard that there is a big battle to be fought, it does not care about the number of opponents at all, but only feels that there is a big business to do, and shouts to run for this wealth.

The white pole soldier had fought with the White Lotus Sect once before in Liyukou, and although he did not lose anything, he had the incident that the main general was almost captured by the opponent, which can be said to be a big loss. Now hurriedly rushed from Fujian to Zhejiang, there was immediately a chance for revenge, the morale of the white pole soldiers was immediately aroused, after eating and drinking, they picked up the two-zhang long white pole spear in their hands, and waited to go into battle to kill the enemy.

As for the soldiers of the Beijing Division, since they went south, several small battles have been fought side by side with the elite Ming Wu Army. However, the opponent in this battle is said to have tens of thousands of people, and the whole army is besieging it, and he has to engage the opponent in a short fight. Therefore, the officers and men of the Beijing Division Battalion, who had previously been powerful in the Beijing Division, were all trembling and at a loss, and their hands holding sabers could not help but tremble.

Ji Qingwen saw the appearance of the Jingshi Battalion, pulled Shen Liangzuo, the nominal commander of the Jingshi Battalion, and scolded: "Look at these soldiers you brought out, they haven't fought with the enemy army yet, and they are scared of their courage, how can they win the battle?" ”

Shen Liangzuo was scolded by Ji Qingwen for being submissive, and quickly bowed his head to admit his mistake.

Ji Qingwen ignored him, stretched out his hand and pointed to the general of the forbidden army, who was standing in the middle of the ranks, and said, "Hey, Chengyi, do you still recognize me?" ”

Cheng Yi is the Wupin Zhenfu of the Jingshi Shenji Battalion, and has had contact with Ji Qingwen in Beijing and Nanjing, although he is not too brilliant in speaking and doing things, he is also a reliable general - of course, no matter how unreliable he is in commanding operations, he is much more reliable than Shen Liangzuo.

Cheng Yi heard Ji Qingwen greet him, and hurriedly stepped forward and replied with his fists clasped into his fists: "The end will be!" ”

"Good!" Ji Qingwen said, "Chengyi, it is said that you are also a serious martial artist, and you were transferred out of Beijing and worked under a eunuch, did you wrong?" ”

This really said to Chengyi's heart.

However, in front of Shen Liangzuo, Cheng Yi didn't dare to say anything clearly, so he could only arch his hand and say: "They are all working for the imperial court, and the last general will not dare to complain." ”

Ji Qingwen said: "Don't dare to return, there is still something, right?" It's inconvenient for you to speak in front of your boss, and I won't force you. However, leading soldiers pays attention to rewards and punishments, if you really have the ability, the court will not treat you badly. ”

Cheng Yi hurriedly said: "The last general is in his thirties, and he is already a five-grade town, and this grade is not slow to advance in the same year as the last general......"

Ji Qingwen didn't expect that Cheng Yi was still a general who didn't care about fame and fortune, so he deliberately provoked him, and suddenly remembered Napoleon's famous words and scolded: "Fart!" Impotent! Don't want to forge ahead! A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier! You are not a good general if you are not motivated! If you think that the position of this calming is enough, then you can go home and pick up the children to play with your wife, what kind of battle are you fighting? ”

Cheng Yi was scolded by Ji Qingwen's words, and his face was flushed, and he held back for a long time before saying: "Lord Ji scolded well!" Weekend...... The last general is out of the way today, so let's make it clear. The last general is not without motivation, but Lord Ji looks, last year, Yuan Chonghuan's commander rushed thousands of miles to relieve the siege of the Beijing Division, and defeated the main force of the Manchurian Eight Banners head-on several times, such military achievements are unparalleled in the sea, but what is the final result? Master Ji also knows - Inspector Yuan finally fell into prison and asked for the crime! With such a Yin Jian in front, how can Lord Ji still tell the last general to be motivated? ”

"I see!" Ji Qingwen said with emotion.

Yuan Chonghuan was executed by Emperor Chongzhen Ling Chi, which was a public case in the late Ming Dynasty. The rights and wrongs here have always been divided into different opinions until the 21st century: some people say that Yuan Chonghuan was unjustly killed, and some people say that he deserved it; There is a record that the world is wronged, and there is also a record that the people of the capital rejoiced; Some people say that Chongzhen made a decision after careful consideration, and some people say that it was a counter-strategy of Huang Taiji......

Before Ji Qingwen crossed, he had browsed the story here as if he was reading a book, and he actually didn't have an idea about the truth of Yuan Chonghuan's death, but now that he heard Chengyi's statement, he remembered that Zu Dashou almost ran back to Guanwai, and then he knew that this matter had a great repercussion among the generals in the late Ming Dynasty, and it could be said that it directly hit the morale of the Ming army.

At this moment, Ji Qingwen had already made up his mind: since he had traveled to the end of the Ming Dynasty, he would always find out whether Yuan Chonghuan was guilty or not, regardless of the thirty-seven twenty-one? Should I be killed or not?

If you shouldn't kill it, you must rescue Yuan Chonghuan from under the butcher's knife.

should be killed, and he must be killed clearly, so that the people of the present and future generations can be convinced!

However, this is all for later, and the first thing Ji Qingwen has to do is to inspire the fighting spirit of Cheng Yi and the soldiers of the Jingshi Battalion.

So he pondered his sentence and said, "Chengyi, you don't have anything to do with me here." Lord Yuan Chonghuan is my senior brother, we worship under Master Sun Chengzong, he is guilty or not, the crime is big and the crime is small, I know better than you! Let's talk about things now, if you have made a contribution, I, Ji Qingwen, will naturally protect you in front of the emperor and ensure that you will be added to the official rank! ”

After speaking, Ji Qingwen said to the soldiers of the Beijing Division Battalion who were standing behind Cheng Yi: "You all listen to Lao Tzu. The Ming Wu Army under my command is not a regular army of the imperial court, but a village warrior regiment recruited by the Yamen under my command, who won the battle and made meritorious contributions, so it was naturally rewarded by Lao Tzu. The white pole soldiers under General Qin Xiangzhen are the soldiers under the Sichuan Tusi, and the rewards are naturally the responsibility of their Qin family. You are different, you are a serious Jingshi battalion, you are the elite of the imperial court, winning the battle is to fight for the imperial court, and the imperial court will naturally not treat you badly. Lao Tzu is here now, you are willing to work hard in this battle, you want to be promoted, Lao Tzu personally wrote a chapter to report your merits, and I want the silver Lao Tzu to reward you out of his own pocket. It's just that you died in battle, and Lao Tzu spent money to feed you and your father and mother! If you retreat? ”

"Hey, hey!" Ji Qingwen sneered and took a sword from Huang Degong's hand, held it flat on his chest, and said loudly, "Lao Tzu, please take out the emperor's 'Son of Heaven Sword' to kill you speechless!" ”
