Lu Xiangsheng, a scholar in the second year of the Apocalypse, is an authentic person, but he is also a rare Confucian general.

In the second year of Chongzhen, the Qing army entered the fortress and plundered in the area of Gyeonggi, and Lu Xiangsheng, who was the prefect of the daimyo at the time, recruited more than 10,000 people to enter Beijing to assist in the defense, and made a contribution.

It was from this year that his legendary life began. Over the years, he has taken the lead in suppressing the rebellion, and has been extremely brave, and has made countless military exploits for the Ming Dynasty.

Such talents have indeed been reused by Zhu Youzhen.

Today, he is the governor of Xuanfu, Datong, and Shanxi, and is the secretary of the military department of the imperial court. Now that the Qing army has entered the fortress, it has to give the Son of Heaven the sword, so that its governor can be reinforced, and his status can be described as indescribably precious.

Of course, at this time, this superintendent is not a good official position, and if he can't win the Qing army, he will come out to bear the black pot.

Soon after Lu Xiangsheng arrived in the capital, he was summoned by Zhu Youzhen. At the gate of the forbidden palace, I met a colleague who had just come out. As a result, the minister saw that he was not wearing an official uniform, but a filial piety uniform, and straw sandals were still on his feet.

When I entered the palace in this way, I saw the saint today, and if I knelt down and kowtowed, was it a dead person or a living person?

The man looked at him for a while, shook his head and said, "Jiandou, is it possible that you plan to meet the driver like this?" ”

"What's wrong?"

Lu Xiangsheng was a little stunned, and after asking this sentence casually, he thought about it carefully, it was indeed a little inappropriate for him to enter the palace to meet the Son of Heaven with such a appearance, and he hurriedly thanked the colleague, and then changed his official robe.

After dressing neatly, he rushed back to the Forbidden Palace.

Lu Xiangsheng came to the door of Wuying Palace, and after reporting his identity to the Yellow Gate, he stood at the door and waited patiently for the Yellow Gate to enter and pass the report.

After a short time, I saw a young man come out behind the yellow door. This person has a delicate face, dressed in a python robe, and is not mighty.

Lu Xiangsheng frowned, vaguely remembering such a person. Although he has been fighting abroad for a long time and does not know much about the affairs of the capital, this person has been in the limelight in recent years, and it is difficult to think about it.

If today, in addition to the people in the royal family, it is none other than Li Xiu who can be given a python robe in the year of the weak crown.

The person who came was indeed Li Xiu, who was summoned to the palace today to report to Zhu Youzhen about the military affairs of the Shenji Battalion.

Li Xiu bowed to him and said with a smile: "I have heard of Lord Lu's prestige earlier, and I am really fortunate to be able to see it today!" ”

This is more sincere, Lu Xiangsheng's prestige, he had heard of it in his previous life, but it was only to know that he was good at fighting. As for the deeper understanding, it is some information that has just been inquired about during this time.

After knowing that Lu Xiangsheng was born as a Jinshi, Li Xiu was surprised, officials can be so brave in battle, no wonder people can leave a name in history.

Moreover, Li Xiu never imagined that he would be so young, looking no more than thirty years old. This is completely different from those who are fifty or sixty years old.

For the people of Jinyiwei, Lu Xiangsheng is actually not very cold. But the attitude of the people was polite, and he couldn't lose his manners, so he had to bow and say: "Lord Li is polite, I have also heard of your deeds, and when I saw it today, it was really a hero out of a young man!" I still have something to face, so don't leave it at that. ”

Li Xiu smiled and nodded, and then left. He could see that Lu Xiangsheng didn't like to see him, and there was no need to stick to other people's cold butts with a hot face.

At this time, in the Wuying Palace, in addition to Zhu Youzhen, there were two other people, namely Yang Sichang and the eunuch Gao Qiqian.

After Lu Xiangsheng saluted, Zhu Youzhen asked: "Now that Jianyu has attacked and plundered Gyeonggi, how does Lu Aiqing think he should deal with it?" ”

He glanced at the two people next to him, and knew that these two people were the Lord and the faction.

"Warlord!"

As soon as Lu Xiangsheng finished speaking, Zhu Youzhen's face sank instantly, and he soon changed to a smiling face.

There is no way, the iron cavalry of the Manchu Qing Dynasty has come to Gyeonggi, and now it is not much point to fight or peace. The most important thing is that someone must come out and lead the army to fight.

Regarding Yang Sichang's proposal for peace, Zhu Youzhen actually agreed, but the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all opposed, so the peace was not successful. This will still coax Lu Xiangsheng to fight, so he had to shirk and say: "The peace talks are pure rumors, Aiqing can prepare for a good life and meet the enemy army." ”

"Obey."

How could Lu Xiangsheng not know that many officials were convened to discuss the matter of the peace talks at that time? By now, almost all the officials in the capital know that such a lie is really not level.

However, who makes the family the Son of Heaven?

If it comes out of the mouth of the Son of Heaven, can it still be fake?

In the next two days, Zhu Youzhen gave Lu Xiangsheng 40,000 taels of military expenses to reward the soldiers. In addition, more than 1,000 horses and 500 silver iron whips were given.

If you want these things, they are really not worth a few dollars, and if they are given to Li Xiu, they are not rare.

But Lu Xiangsheng was very moved, and only said one sentence from his father: "The minister should repay the country with death!" ”

In this way, Lu Xiangsheng rushed to the front line.

"People are fighting on the front line, and our elite can only swatt flies in the back, alas"

Li Xiu sat alone in the big tent of the Chinese army, complaining dissatisfied. Of course he knew that what Zhu Youzhen cared about more was the capital, which was absolutely not to be missed.

"Lord Admiral, I will ask for a meeting at the end!" Li Dongzhong's angry voice came from outside the tent.

"Come in."

When Li Xiu's words fell, he saw Li Dong enter in response, and he also took great pains to perform a standard military salute, and the armor on his body made a loud noise. He couldn't help laughing and said, "It's done, there are no outsiders here, and you still come with me?" ”

Li Dong got up with a smile and asked, "Young Master, do we have a battle to fight here?" ”

"Well, I don't think so."

Li Xiu answered truthfully, and when he saw that his face was dark, he asked with a smile, "What?" After talking about military training on paper, you just want to go to the battlefield like this? ”

The soldiers of the Shenji Battalion have not experienced battle formations, and the training in peacetime can indeed be regarded as a soldier on paper, and Li Xiu is not wrong.

Li Dong glared at the delicate eyes and shouted, "On paper? Our Shenji Battalion, now that it is fully armed, are you still afraid that the cavalry of Jianyu will not succeed? The more than 2,000 iron cavalry under my command are not practiced in vain, and if they really encounter the cavalry of Jianyu, they will definitely be beaten and fled! ”

Li Xiu was stunned, is this still Li Dong? Why do you talk like a big old man now?

Seeing him staring straight at him, Li Dong realized that his tone was wrong, and hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Young master, I've been staying with those bastards for a long time before I got this habit." ”

Li Xiu shook his head and said with a smile: "I think it's good, it seems that my original decision was right, you are indeed suitable for the army, I really didn't see it a few days ago, haha"

At this moment, Sun Ming's voice came from outside the door: "My lord, I want to see you if you have something to do!" (To be continued.) )
