The two of them walked in the city for nearly half an hour before they arrived at Jinglufu, during which they also said a few words, but not much, just because the soldier who had returned from Mongolia was very tired. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

There were dozens of soldiers standing at the gate of Jinglufu, and the two soldiers immediately dismounted and walked over.

"This is Lord Zhang's personal soldier who went to Mongolia, and now he is not far away, he has returned to Jinzhou City, and he wants to meet Lord Jingluo, and I hope that the old brother will report it." The night vigil soldiers of Jinzhou City said respectfully.

They were all soldiers in one place, so the relationship between these soldiers was not bad, so the head of the Shoufu just asked routinely: "You came back from Mongolia." ”

"Yes."

"Then you wait here for a while, and I'll go in and make an announcement." The leader of the guard said softly.

"Then there's Brother Lao."

The leader waved his hand, signaling that he should not be so polite, and turned around and entered the mansion.

At this time, Sun Chengzong did not sleep peacefully, and was talking with Jinzhou General Soldier Man Gui in the hall, Sun Chengzong and Man Gui had a very good personal relationship, Man Gui also admired Sun Chengzong in his heart, looked down on Yuan Chonghuan, and felt that he was a soft egg, this time after Sun Chengzong came, Man Gui was transferred to Jinzhou as the chief soldier.

Just as the two were talking, the soldier came to report that the soldier from Mongolia had returned and wanted to meet Master Jingluo.

Nearly two months have passed since he proposed this alliance and allowed it by the imperial court, and Zhang Huangji went to Mongolia for a month and a half.

Except for Yuan Chonghuan, politicians in the entire Ming court, including Zhu Youzhen, did not understand Sun Chengzong's willingness to form an alliance with Mongolia.

Does Sun Chengzong want to rely on Mongolia, no, what he needs is not Mongolia, but that paper covenant, if the covenant is signed, he can let the Houjin cast a mouse, dare not easily offend the Ming Dynasty, can buy a longer time for Sun Chengzong to arrange the army, and can also play a great policy for the imperial court in the country, to buy time, but Sun Chengzong knows that after the Houjin settled in Shenyang, his purpose has changed, the previous Nurhachi, just want to divide a land, become the emperor, but after years of southern conquest and northern war, he realized that the Ming army's combat effectiveness is low, The political purpose has also changed from separating one place to sweeping the world, so it is tantamount to whimsical to rely on this covenant to completely scare Houjin.

After hearing about the soldiers who came back from Mongolia, Sun Chengzong was anxious about the Mongolian negotiations, and hurriedly said, "Let him come in." ”

"Order." When he had finished speaking, he strode down.

After a while, the soldier arrived in the hall with the soldiers who had returned from Mongolia.

When the soldiers returning from Mongolia saw Sun Chengzong, they immediately knelt down: "The little one has seen Master Jinglu." ”

"Hurry up."

After the soldier got up, Sun Chengzong asked in detail: "How is the negotiation of the alliance between Mongolia?" ”

"Lord Jingluo, at this time, the little one returned to Jinzhou City to report the good news to the adults, Lord Zhang chatted with Lin Dan Khan for a long time, and said a lot to the Mongolian nobles, although more than once threatened and intimidated by the Mongols, but Lord Zhang led the mission to pass safely, and thirteen days ago with Lin Dan Khan formally decided to sign an alliance, but I need someone with a higher status to go, this is also Lin Dan Khan's request."

Sun Chengzong nodded and said softly: "It should be so, this official will immediately write a chapter, and send it to the capital as soon as possible, and the emperor will decide on the candidate." ”

Although Zhang Huangji was born in the army, his official position is indeed not high, even if he can speak well, Lin Dan Khan does not recognize him.

Sun Chengzong, who made up his mind, asked the soldier to go down to rest, let the soldier bring paper and pencils, write the chapter, and after it was sealed, he summoned the soldier and asked him to send it to Beijing as quickly as possible.

After everything was settled, Sun Chengzong was also relieved, and said to Man Gui: "General Man, this negotiation of an alliance with Mongolia is the official's proposition, but I don't know that it is a blessing or a curse for my Ming Dynasty." ”

The tall and swarthy Man Gui, after hearing Sun Chengzong's words, hurriedly stood up and said respectfully: "Lord Jingluo, the last general feels that it is imperative to form an alliance with the Mongols, otherwise, my Ming will face the Jianlu independently, and the pressure must be extremely great. ”

Sun Chengzong waved his hand and said: "General Man, you don't have to comfort the heart of the official, you and I both know that the first place where Huang Taiji started was not my Daming, but Mongolia, you only said the good aspects, but the things that were unfavorable to my Daming did not stop, if Huang Taiji sent troops to Mongolia after the signing of the covenant, how should I deal with Liaodong, have you ever thought about it?" ”

Man Gui shook his head, although he is a military general, but he is not a stupid person, Sun Chengzong said he also considered, in fact, according to Man Gui's thoughts, if the emperor Taiji goes west, the Liaodong army does not have to hesitate, and goes north directly, but Man Gui is not the imperial court, not the emperor Zhu Youzhen, he can't be the master, if Zhu Youzhen hesitates, the imperial court opposes, then a paper covenant is like waste paper.

And Sun Chengzong's idea is also to abide by the covenant, although there is a risk in the north, but the risk and the benefit are coexisting, if the army is used properly, Sun Chengzong feels that he can push the Liaodong defense line forward one step further, but he is the same as Man Gui, is also considering Zhu Youzhen's meaning, the emperor and the imperial court allow the Liaodong soldiers and horses to launch a war that seems to be a small victory, in fact, this is also a kind of adventure of Sun Chengzong, winning, can not destroy the Houjin, can only get a few more cities, the Liaodong defense line is built more stable, but if you lose, heavy losses, There will be an emptiness in the Liaodong defense line, which is in danger of losing the country, in contrast, no one feels that there is no need to take risks, but Sun Chengzong is not more than ordinary people, he clearly recognizes that at this time the Ming Dynasty is facing an embarrassing situation of passive beating, if you want to change, a war is inevitable, and Sun Chengzong and all the generals in Liaodong think in general, unwilling to go to war with Houjin alone, at this time pull Mongolia, North Korea to help, but also a kind of helplessness.

Sun Chengzong wanted to fight, but the emperor and the court did not agree with him to take such a risk, so it was not in his expectation, at this time the military department was Yuan Chonghuan, he knew Yuan Chonghuan's temperament, if the Liaodong affair opened, Zhu Youzhen's first person to ask must be Yuan Chonghuan, and Yuan Chonghuan must also dissuade, and will tell the gains and losses of the battle of Liaodong, at that time, what the emperor thought, he did not expect.

Sun Chengzong hesitated for a while and then said: "General Man, if Huang Taiji advances westward, this official will send 40,000 troops from Jinzhou and order Phi Dao Korea to send troops to echo, can you win this war and solve the crisis of Mongolia?" ”

"The last general doesn't know, but the last general is willing to be the vanguard of the charge of the master of the strategy, and he will never give up." Man Gui didn't dare to say enough, stationed in Liaodong all the year round, for the Houjin cavalry's combat speed and combat effectiveness is clear, although the Liaodong army is brave, the Phidao army can also fight, but what the North Korean army looks like, he doesn't know, if the North Korean army is vulnerable, it will definitely break Sun Chengzong's arrangement, and even drag down the entire battle situation.

Of course, Sun Chengzong knew Man Gui's thoughts, but he didn't want to embarrass Man Gui, so he waved his hand and said, "It's dark at night, General Man should go back to his house and rest." ”

"Yes, the last general will retire." After Man Gui finished speaking, he gave a salute and walked out of the hall.

Looking at Man Gui's back, Sun Chengzong sighed helplessly.

Sun Chengzong is the builder of the Liaodong defense line, and he is clear about his shortcomings, and Sun Chengzong, who once again led the army, wants to change the Liaodong defense line and eliminate all the drawbacks.
