Chapter 0260 What if you can't win?
Chongzhen weakly piled the folds aside, closing his eyes and recuperating. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
From Zheng Chongjian's letters from Ningxia, he knew that the situation in Ningxia and Daming was very bad, but he was still helpless, and he luckily thought that maybe the matter would not be too serious, so he did not order any action, until Hong Chengchou's twist and turn told him about the situation on the three sides, because he was also anxious
Ningxia, Gansu, and Yansui are all out of control?
Gansu Hong Chengchou means that he can't beat it, yes, it's very simple, Chongzhen shook his head, compared to other monarchs, he is not a person who likes to shirk responsibility to his subordinates, don't talk about Ningxia, but the matter of Gansu is completely Hong Chengchou's responsibility, isn't it? And Yansui, fight hard!
Chongzhen wanted to order Hong Chengchou to be cut down, but he also knew that if he cut it, there would be no one to use
In any case, Hong Chengchou is still a very capable person, as for his request to go to the letter, let Cao Wenzhao go to help, because the anti-thief soldiers are very elite, Chongzhen doesn't want to care, but thinking of the loss of Yansui and the loss of all three sides, such a result is not acceptable to him, so he had to order Hong Chengchou to try his best to resist, and then Cao Wenzhao suppressed the bandits as soon as possible
Could it be that the power of the White Lotus anti-thief has reached this level?
and Ning Zhiyuan's letter, so let's go with him
Gao Yingxiang was still organizing men and horses to break through, but they did not succeed once, and they deeply felt that the officers and soldiers this time were obviously different.
It is not that the officers and soldiers have become more elite, but that the attitude has obviously changed.
In the past, when the northwest was in the northwest, the officials and bandits met, it was roughly just a play, your subordinates were merciful, I also pretended, and then gave the officers and soldiers some benefits, and the anti-thieves broke through smoothly, and the casualties were infinitely equal to zero, and then the best of both worlds, but now, it is obvious that the officers and soldiers have the upper hand, it is a good opportunity to exterminate the anti-thieves, and no one dares to relax, if the anti-thieves escape from there, the officers and soldiers will die and die, they know that Chongzhen will not let him go.
Then Zhang Xianzhong finally connected with Wang Pu.
At first glance, Zhang Xianzhong felt that this was definitely a person who was very happy, and he was a little angry in his heart, just such a straw bag, because he was born well, his father was an official, and he was also such a big official, but on the surface, Zhang Xianzhong still admired him.
"Lord Wang, it's better to meet than to be famous, adults are more powerful than the villain imagined." Zhang Xianzhong said with flattery on his face.
Wang Pu, as a military general, is naturally tall and mighty, and it will not be a simple straw bag, otherwise even if it is a hereditary officer, it will not be his turn, at this time, he was a little happy in his heart, looking at Zhang Xianzhong's expression with a smile on his face, and seeing the silver he signaled to bring up from outside, the smile on his face suddenly became brighter.
This must be ten thousand taels of silver
"Alright, let's talk about something." Wang Pu smiled, his tone was very gentle, and he also had a bottom in his heart.
"The villain and the others don't want to go against the court anymore, it was a natural disaster before, and they really can't live anymore, so they have to do stupid things in a moment of confusion, and now they want to return to the court, and ask the adults to surrender." Zhang Xianzhong secretly cursed in his heart, 'See the money', and replied quietly.
"You want to surrender," Wang Pu said in a long voice, "You have surrendered many times before."
Zhang Xianzhong's heart tightened, and then he looked at the playful smile on Wang Pu's face, sneered in his heart, asked for money to die, and said with a sycophancy on his face, "It wasn't because of natural disasters before, and I didn't get food after surrendering, but now the drought is not over, and a group of good officials have been replaced."
Wang Pu looked at the table playfully, as if he was a little absent-minded, he had heard about this group of anti-thieves before, and he couldn't make any waves if he thought about it, and the success of the surrender was also a great achievement, but the benefits were still needed.
He didn't know that if he really succeeded in surrendering these rebels, Cao Wenzhao would kill them one by one, but Zhang Xianzhong knew that his purpose was not to really surrender.
"As early as when I came, the eldest brother told the villain, among the generals, you have seen the world of the Salvation King, and you are the best to talk from the capital, so let the villain find the adult to surrender." Zhang Xianzhong reasoned his thoughts and said, "After all these years, the villain and others still have some savings in their hands, and there are no more, but there are still millions of taels of silver."
The smile on Wang Pu's face became thicker
Zhang Xianzhong obviously felt that Wang Pu's body trembled excitedly at this time, and he was more confident in his heart, now he didn't have to think about using this money to buy a life for himself, he could buy a life for all his brothers.
"As long as the lord agrees to our surrender, then the silver will be all the adult's, and half of it will be shipped after three days, and before the surrender, all will be handed over to the lord and the court" Zhang Xianzhong continued, feeling a lot more relaxed, feeling that this matter had been done.
Wang Pu was not very reluctant to accept the surrender, he had worked hard in Beijing for more than ten years, and he had only saved more than 100,000 taels of silver in total, and now he had made a million taels even more joyful, and he nodded for a while, he was afraid that if he didn't agree again, this good thing might fall into the hands of others.
"Since Lord Ben has accepted your surrender, you must disarm as soon as possible." The smile on Wang Pu's face retracted.
"Adults, villains, etc., how about time to settle the brothers, how about this, ten days, we will come out one after another to be surrendered," Zhang Xianzhong said with a bitter face.
Wang Pu nodded, and then said as if he remembered something, "Don't make a noise about the surrender of you, otherwise the official is worried that things will change, if someone attacks, although it is better to resist but surrender as soon as possible."
Zhang Xianzhong nodded, sneering in his heart, just what he wanted, if Wang Pu didn't say it, he still wanted to remind him, wouldn't it be just to shoot others to rob him of his credit and money? If Cao Wenzhao knew about it, he wouldn't know what to do.
Wang Pu was very satisfied, looking at Zhang Xianzhong's distant back and smiling.
Cao Wenzhao received Chongzhen's urging and was ready to plan a general attack, not because of Chongzhen, as an excellent general, he knew that when he chose the right time, Chongzhen could not be controlled, but he should still listen to the emperor within the right range.
And Zhang Xianzhong returned to the city and told the people who were anxiously waiting for his result this time, looking at the unconcealable joy on everyone's faces, his heart was already happy.
He's definitely not someone like that, I'm happy because you're happy, it's just that he knows that after this time, his status in this team will be very different.
"Big brother, I still have an idea" waited until everyone's mood calmed down a little, Zhang Xianzhong said.
"Say, you said, you have done a great job this time," Gao Yingxiang said with a smile.
"We can break through the next night, so we don't have to give that Wang Pu silver" Zhang Xianzhong said, glanced at everyone's expressions, and found that they were all surprises, this kind of thing can be thought of in a while, but now when it is brought up, the effect is absolutely good.
Just as he had to put away the spare money of the leaders before, he was prepared for the worst, and now the situation is much better, giving them the feeling that he has saved so much money for them, this is the means to do things, Zhang Xianzhong is such a person who uses cleverness to take advantage of small advantages.
In Datong Town, Shanxi, Ning Daguan has been training on the school field with a group of people for more than ten days, and the mood here seems to be changing every day.
Compared to the jealousy and imbalance of many soldiers, the soldiers from the Daimyo's Mansion were full of feelings and gratitude, and just over a month ago, they were peasants who could not have enough to eat, but now they have become the envy of everyone.
Ning Zhiyuan said to them, you eat meat every day and get a full amount of military salary, are you not as good as those who eat dry rice? So they train very hard, and they want to prove by their actions that the preferential treatment of themselves and others is not because of the charity of adults, but because they themselves are worthy.
Ning Zhiyuan now has a holy decree in his hand, which is also the trump card he has been waiting for.
The low-level soldiers here in Datong may be dissatisfied with their superiors, because they have deducted their salaries, but they will not starve to death, so they will not resist because of this kind of thing, and the smell of meat floating on the school field at noon every day can only exacerbate the dissatisfaction in their hearts, but with this holy decree, everything is going smoothly.
Theoretically speaking, the holy decree is not needed, Ning Zhiyuan has this Shangfang sword, and he will cut it first and then play it under the three grades, but he knows that this is just Chongzhen for him to break the situation in Ningxia, it is okay to scare people, if it can be used casually, it is not countable, wouldn't it be possible to cut down all the local officials of the entire daimyo?
In the tent stood five or six thousand households.
The difference between a thousand households and a hundred households is that one is not allowed to go to the battlefield, and the other needs to charge into battle, so most of the white tigers are bloody men, and among the thousands of households, among fifty or sixty people, maybe only a few of them have clean buttocks.
"You should wait for the military salary to be paid in full." Ning Zhiyuan joked that in his mind, no matter how short of money he was, the imperial court would not shorten the salaries of these high-ranking officers, otherwise they would all be messed up.
Sure enough, a few people nodded.
"In that case, what are you doing here?" Senior Officer Ning asked, and Kou Baimen sat quietly aside.
"Because it was said, 'My lord, you can make our soldiers eat meat every day.'" Someone replied.
"How many of your soldiers can be mobilized?" Ning Zhiyuan asked slowly.
"All." Several people said almost at the same time.
"What this official means is that if there is a rebellion, how many of your men are willing to follow." Ning Daguan is humane.
Several people's bodies trembled, and then they all looked at Ning Zhiyuan in confusion, but seeing that Ning Zhiyuan was expressionless, Xu Ming gritted his teeth and said, "Thousands of subordinates can be under the officials!" Dao Xia Guan would never do this. ”
Everyone nodded one after another, Ning Zhiyuan was very satisfied, his subordinates were willing to rebel, then this is a good general, Ning Zhiyuan's definition is very simple, just like Zhou Chang at that time.
"Naturally, this official will not want you to rebel, but just let you gather soldiers under your command to arrest all the officials of more than 1,000 households, are you willing?"
"Something happened, and the official was the first to carry it in front."
Five or six thousand households were silent.
"If it's really as the adults say, then the subordinates and others will do it." It was Xu Ming who opened his mouth and said in a deep voice.
This is what he meant, and it is what everyone conveyed to him through their eyes.
"Very good" Ning Zhiyuan nodded, then took out Chongzhen's secret decree and wrote lightly, "Take a look for yourself." ”
Several people took their hands and looked at them, and then suddenly their eyes widened, they looked at each other a few times, and said in unison, "Follow your lordship's orders." The joy in his tone was obvious, if it was just Ning Zhiyuan's order, it would not be very reliable at this time, but they knew the nature of the Datong group of officials and they were also willing to be Bobo, and the imperial court did not pay the full military salary, but because of the false report, the silver received by the chief soldier could definitely be paid.
Now that they have the emperor's secret decree, they are completely relieved, benefiting others and themselves, and they have also made meritorious contributions
They weren't worried that this was fake, they didn't know what the crime of falsely spreading the holy decree was, but it was inevitable to behead Ning Zhiyuan.
"You can secretly contact others when you go back, but remember to be reliable, don't leak the news of the night action," Ning Zhiyuan waved his hand and ordered.
Xu Ming and the others nodded excitedly in response, and then retreated with interest, and the guards also retreated with interest
There were only two people left in the tent, and Kou Baimen neatly got into the arms of Ning Daguan, and a gust of fragrant wind hit his nose.
"Will you have anything to do this time" Kou Baimen asked seriously, of course, in the eyes of Ning Daguan, Kou Nuxia is always a serious and cold fan.
"No, at most, it's just that he defeated Houjin and became famous in the world, hehe" Ning Zhiyuan said with a smile, it was really a too wise decision for Kou Baimen to follow, and it solved his physiological impulses.
Kou Nuxia pouted rarely, "I don't understand, but if it's so simple, the emperor still has to wait until now, there must always be a scapegoat." ”
"You're the scapegoat, otherwise you wouldn't have to send a secret decree." Because Ning Zhiyuan didn't avoid her about anything, she knew everything from beginning to end.
"And then?" Ning Daguan smiled and asked, "Even if this son is a scapegoat, what if this battle is won, the immortal merit is enough to offset the merits, right?" ”
"Can't win?" Kou Baimen asked with a slightly red face, letting Ning Zhiyuan's hand wander around her.
"Then what if you say you can't win?" Ning Zhiyuan froze for a moment, and then asked.
Kou Baimen thought about it, and wanted to say something like killing you, but he still shook his head.
Ning Daguan smiled, proud, proud, and arrogant
