On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, Jin Yiwei commanded Lu Bing to return from Datongwei. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Emperor Jiajing was in the hands of Chen Di, and Lu Bing had already compromised with Chen Di. For most of the past six months, he has been collecting Tatar military intelligence in Datongwei under Chen Di's instructions.

Xiyuan was on duty, and Lu Bing and Chen Di sat opposite each other.

Chen Di said to Lu Bing: "In the past six months, Lu Commander has always worked hard to spy on the Tatar military! The imperial court awarded the general the Order of the Handsome Ribbon, and because you were not in Beijing, you let your son receive it on your behalf. ”

Lu Bing was obviously not interested in the medal, he waved his hand and said, "I just want to know if the emperor is okay?" ”

Chen Di said: "The emperor is well! Commander Lu can leave my place and go to Yongshou Palace to greet the emperor. ”

Lu Bingdao: "Governor, I am going back to Beijing this time, first, to come back to ask the emperor for peace, and secondly, I have an important piece of information to tell you. ”

Chen Di asked, "What information?" ”

Lu Bing groped for the embroidered spring knife on his waist and replied: "On the seventh day of the lunar month, the Tatar Altan Khan captured the tent of Warat Khan, killed the Warat Taishi, and the 80,000 troops of the Warat Department surrendered!" ”

Chen Di was shocked! Altan Khan's movements are so fast! Today, only the Uliangha tribe of the Mongolian steppe is left to threaten the Tatars!

It seems that this battle with the Tatars is inevitable! After Altan Khan finished cleaning up the Warat, his next target was Uliangha. When Uliangha is defeated again, Altan Khan's next target is the Ming Dynasty! Since this battle is inevitable, it is better to fight late than early!

When preparing for the establishment of the Xingming Military Academy, it should be put aside now. After the New Year, the center of gravity of the imperial court will be tilted towards preparing for the Tatar war!

Chen Di asked Lu Bing: "How did the Tatars lose in the great war with Warat?" ”

Lu Bing replied: "The attrition situation is unknown. However, according to the information sent back by our spies, Altan Khan now has 80,000 troops and horses in his headquarters, and another 40,000 varat troops. ”

Chen Di closed his eyes thoughtfully.

The total number of Tatar troops has reached 120,000. The combat power of these 120,000 people is not as weak as the Ming Dynasty's guards! All of them are iron horsemen who are good at riding and shooting!

With an army of 13,000 Flying Tigers, he rode against Altan Khan's 120,000 elite cavalry。。。。。 Chen Di was not completely sure that he would win.

You must know that this time on the Northern Expedition, the Flying Tiger Army will go deep into the grassland! Not to mention that there is no backup, the steppe is the territory of those Mongolian cavalry! Their cavalry can maneuver on a large scale, while the Flying Tiger Army has to rely on two legs to walk step by step!

Fortunately, the manufacturing office worked overtime, and Shi Sun fought for his old life, and finally built a new firearm that was enough to arm the entire Flying Tiger Army infantry in seven months. In addition to the cavalry brigade, the rest of the infantry of the Flying Tiger Army has all been equipped with tiger guns and leech crossbows!

Chen Di said to Lu Bing: "Commander Lu will go to the emperor to ask for peace first, I will hold a military meeting tonight, and Commander Lu will come to participate!" ”

Lu Bing arched his hand and said, "Governor, then I will retire first." ”

Lu Bing said goodbye to Chen Di and went straight to Yongshou Palace.

The Yongshou Palace was full of soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army holding tiger wielders.

Lu Bing glanced at the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army, came to the apse, and met Emperor Jiajing.

Emperor Jiajing was refining the elixir in the apse. With the power on the sidelines, Xiuxian asked became the only way for Emperor Jiajing to pass the time.

Next to Emperor Jiajing, the eunuch Lu Fang, the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, stood in charge. Behind Lu Fang were four Flying Tiger Arms Fighters. These four Flying Tiger gunners received an order to stay by Emperor Jiajing's side for twelve hours a day.

Lu Bing bowed three times to Emperor Jiajing and kowtowed: "Minister, Jinyi Wei commands Lu Bing, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!" ”

Emperor Jiajing said without raising his head: "Oh, it's Commander Lu who is here." ”

Lu Bingdao: "The minister has been presiding over the intelligence spy on Tatars in Datongwei for half a year, and he has failed to come to the emperor to ask for peace, and he deserves death." ”

Emperor Jiajing sneered: "The crime deserves death? Don't, Commander Lu is now a celebrity in front of Governor Chen, last time Governor Chen awarded medals to all meritorious soldiers, what did he award to Commander Lu? Oh, it's the Order of the General, right? Governor Chen also took 800 acres of land from my sub-grain field and gave it to Commander Lu, right? Who dares to let the celebrities around Governor Chen die? ”

Emperor Jiajing's words were filled with guns and sticks.

Lu Bing's head knocked like a rattle: "The emperor atons for his sins!" ”

Emperor Jiajing put a refined pill into the box and said, "Get up and talk back." ”

Lu Bing obeyed the order and stood up.

Emperor Jiajing asked Lu Bing: "Why, I heard that the hundreds of horsemen in Nanzhen Fusi are now only ordered by the governor of Chen?" ”

Lu Bing replied: "Your Majesty, Nanzhen Fu Si Tiqi is only loyal to the emperor!" ”

Emperor Jiajing said angrily: "Only loyal to me? Well, I will order you to take Nanzhen Fu Si Ti to kill Chen Di, the governor of the usurping dynasty! ”

Lu Fang interrupted Emperor Jiajing's words, and he nodded at the four Flying Tiger Arms Fighters, and said, "Your Majesty, be cautious!" ”

Emperor Jiajing smiled bitterly: "Lu Bing, have you seen it all?" Now I even have to avoid Governor Chen when I speak! ”

Emperor Jiajing's cynicism made Lu Bing's heart full of grievances. The reason why he obeyed Chen Di's orders was officially because Chen Di controlled Emperor Jiajing! What if he, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, did not listen to Chen Di's orders, and Chen Di killed Emperor Jiajing with an order? Fortunately, the things that Chen Di asked him to do were all beneficial to Daming, so Lu Bing worked hard when he was in Datongwei.

Emperor Jiajing said: "Okay, Ann has also been invited, you kneel down!" ”

"The Emperor's 。。。。。" Lu Bing, a tough guy, had a few tears in his eyes.

Emperor Jiajing ordered again: "I'm going to rest, you kneel down!" ”

"Take care of the emperor, the ministers kneel and 。。。。。" Lu Bing's tears rolled down his cheeks, and he kowtowed and said goodbye.

Chen Di had been preparing for the Northern Expedition to Tatar since half a month ago. He secretly transferred Hu Zongxian, the governor of Zhejiang, to Beijing. Accompanying Hu Zongxian into Beijing was the old gang leader of the Cao Gang Land Rover Peng and his thirty Cao boats. These thirty boats were loaded with military rations needed for the Flying Tiger Army's Northern Expedition.

At night, Xiyuan was on duty, and Chen Di held a military meeting.

Yu Dayou, Marshal of the Flying Tiger Army, Qi Jiguang, commander of the First Division of the Flying Tiger Army, Li Chengliang, commander of the cavalry brigade of the Flying Tiger Army, Tang Shunzhi, the secretary of the military department, Zhang Juzheng, the left attendant of the household department, Long Zixing, the right attendant, Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and Hu Zongxian, the governor of Zhejiang, attended the meeting.

Chen Di laid a map of the northern frontier of the Ming Dynasty and the Mongolian steppes on his desk.

Chen Di said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the information that Commander Lu has just brought back, the Tatars have already conquered the Warat Department. Now Altan Khan has 120,000 elite horsemen in his hands! On the Mongolian steppe, the only thing that can threaten Altan Khan is Uliangha! ”

Tang Shunzhi: "This is a big mistake! When Altan Khan unifies the Mongolian steppe, he will definitely raise troops to the south to deal with my Ming Dynasty! ”
