Speaking of which, this matter is really surprising, the Shandong army used to be extremely low-key, no matter how difficult Chongzhen was, Wang Zheng has always been obedient to the imperial court.

But this time, the 200,000 soldiers of the Shandong Army came to an unprecedented military admonition without warning.

Wang Zheng suddenly ordered troops to go north, and the Shandong army incorporated the remnants of the Ming army in Cangzhou City within a few days, and firmly controlled the north-south Cao Yun in his hands.

After hearing this, many people suddenly remembered that under Wang Zheng's hands, the Shandong Army was actually a tiger!

In the past, many people regarded it as a sick cat because of its dormancy, but they didn't think that once this tiger got up, the whole Ming Dynasty would tremble and be uneasy.

The story of the military admonition spread all over the streets and alleys, and when many people first heard about it, Wang Zheng had actually occupied Cangzhou.

Knowing that this army of soldiers and horses was in Cangzhou, which was less than 200 miles away from him, the important ministers and nobles of Beizhili finally couldn't sit still and began to discuss countermeasures.

But how to deal with it, the Shandong army is still carrying the banner of the imperial court officials and soldiers, and even rumors have arisen in the Beijing division.

What to say that Wang Dashuai, who was loyal to the monarch and the country in the past, has repeatedly suffered from the suspicion and suppression of the imperial court, no matter how the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division are arrested, and batch after batch of people are thrown into prison, the rumors are still not good for the imperial court.

There has never been a local military general who can threaten the imperial court like Wang Zheng, this threat to the imperial court is not only in strength, but also in the hearts of the people.

If ordinary soldiers and horses enter Beizhili, even if it is the official army of the imperial court, the people are often panicked, but this time they can't wait for the Shandong army to fight directly to Beijing.

To say that this turn of public opinion is not Wang Zheng's doing, even Chongzhen will not believe it, but in addition, what is more frightening is Wang Zheng.

This person is less than thirty years old, but there are too many of these overt and covert methods, which are really difficult to guard.

In the past, when there were more than 10,000 Shandong troops, they had been constantly victorious, attacking thieves in the south and rejecting the Tartars in the north, and there was no defeat yet.

At present, Wang Zheng waved 200,000 troops into Cangzhou, who can know what the real purpose is.

Although I don't know how many real numbers there are in the Shandong army going north, what is certain is that even if the Shandong army has only 100,000 soldiers and horses, who in the world can resist it.

After the Ming army of Beizhili heard about the incident in Cangzhou, they were already frightened, and there were not a few people who had the idea of guarding Cangzhou.

Everyone knows that with the current strength of the Shandong Army, even if it directly takes the Beijing Division, it is not difficult at all.

But why did Wang Zheng willingly work for the Ming Dynasty?

In the first battle of Cangzhou, the Shandong army defeated and incorporated thousands of nearby Ming troops at a cost of almost zero casualties, and successfully controlled Cangzhou, an important town in Hejian Province.

As soon as this news came out, the important ministers and relatives above the court were even more in danger, and many people even thought that Wang Zheng made such a big move, was it really just to change the title?

However, if you take a closer look, you will find that in fact, Wang Zheng has always been "respectful" to the court from his inception to the present.

Even in this war, there were no rumors of rebellion, but it only gave people the feeling that they were suspicious and had to do so.

To say that the biggest time bomb in today's Ming Dynasty is nothing more than the Shandong Army.

With a heavy army like Wang Zheng, the only person left on the side of the army was the coastal Zheng family, but the Zheng family and the Shandong army could not speak the same day.

The Zheng family is the main sea, blocking pirates, pirates and foreigners for the imperial court, although the infantry is also very strong in the south of the Yangtze River, but it cannot achieve the status of the strongest Shandong army today.

In contrast, the Shandong Army was not.

First of all, Wang Zheng's base camp is in Shandong, which is very close to Beizhili, if you look at the speed of the surprise attack on Jiannu Xingjing in the past, the Shandong army will be able to come to the city of Beijing within a month, and there will be enough time to react and take the lead.

Of course, this has seriously threatened Chongzhen, and it is precisely when he sees this that the imperial court will repeatedly stimulate and test whether Wang Zheng is loyal.

This also leads to a conclusion. Although this Shandong general soldier seems to be decent, he is not desperate to do things for the imperial court.

Although Wang Zheng is deeply hidden, there are also people who can vaguely discover his hidden ambitions.

In the second half of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Wang Zheng launched the Cangzhou army on the grounds that the title was inappropriate, and took the Cangzhou area with thunderous speed.

In this operation, not only did the imperial court have a new definition of the strength in Wang Zheng's hands, but also let the civil and military generals of the Shandong army see the weakness of the imperial army and their own prosperity.

Before leaving the territory of Shandong, the Cangzhou garrison heard that the Shandong army was going north, and did not hesitate to abandon the official and abscond, followed by the Ming army in the city to kill each other.

After the first battle, the Shandong army was discussing how to deal with the surrounding towns, but it received many letters one after another.

As a civil and military general of the imperial court, he did not think of resisting at such a time, but he rushed to write a letter to express his intention of seeking perfection, which has to be said to be a great irony.

They all expressed their willingness to accept the reorganization of the Shandong Army, which was really a surprise, which not only made Wang Zheng's eyes shine, but also made the entire Shandong Army see a hope - the hope of changing the dynasty.

Looking at the thick pile of letters in front of him, Wang Zheng couldn't help but smile, until now, he finally understood Li Zicheng's mood in history.

Many generals and civil officials of the Shandong Army are actually more anxious than Wang Zheng, and almost half of Hejian Prefecture is surrendered to the wind, if it is the same in other places, then why not directly capture the Beijing Division.

……

About half a month after entering Cangzhou City, the generals of the Shandong Army and the clerks of the Military Council Department all gathered together, arguing with red faces.

"Li Zuojun discussed, we Mingren don't say secret words, this world is in chaos like this, why don't we go directly to the Jingshi and pull the old emperor down!"

It was Dong Youyin who said this, Deng Heizi and Gao Liang also nodded, and the soldiers and generals of the Shandong Army around them were constantly echoing, and their eyes were shining with excitement.

"This kind of court, what's the use of respect, it's better to hit the Beijing Division, with the strength of our Shandong Army, who would dare to stop it?"

In fact, Li Yan also had a little itch in his heart, what did he assist Wang Zheng for so far, isn't it to overthrow the Ming Dynasty and change the dynasty, but it is indeed not time yet.

Thinking of this, Li Yan smiled and suddenly asked:

"It's easy to beat Jingshi and pull Chongzhen off the horse, but after that, who will be the emperor?"

This question is not up to standard, and the generals didn't think about it, and shouted one after another:

"This still needs to be asked, of course the handsome emperor is the emperor!"

"What does Li Zuojun mean by this?"

Hearing this, Li Yan shook his head, glanced at the south, and said quietly:

"Even if the Beijing division is defeated, before the marshal ascends the throne, someone in Nanjing will immediately claim the emperor and ascend the throne, even if a prince comes out casually, it is nominally orthodox."

Speaking of this, Li Yan asked with a smile:

"At that time, our Shandong army will collect the whole world and attack it, what's the use of laying down a Beijing division, it's not that you can't stay?"

As he spoke, Li Yan's eyes flashed with deep worry, and he frowned and said:

"What's more, the current Ming Dynasty is not uninhabited."

Dong Youyin was a little impatient, shook his head and asked, "Who else can compare with Dashuai?" ”

"That's it, I'm afraid Li Zuojun's discussion is a bit alarmist!"

"Say that the left army doesn't want to go, just let the right army go!"

Huang Yang has always been very calm, no matter how excited the people around him are, he always stands aside in a low-key manner, but at this time, he suddenly opened his mouth and said in a deep voice:

"Sun Chuanting."

After saying this, the room suddenly fell silent, Sun Chuanting's loyalty to the imperial court should not be underestimated.
