One Hundred and Fourteen Black Clouds Crush the City (3)
Listening to the words of the man in Tsing Yi, the entourage was a little curious: "Master, do you know Zhu Kun?" ”
The man in Tsing Yi shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't know, but I've heard of his reputation, like us, what don't you know?" Zhu Kun is a very capable person, give him a little strength and give him a little power, he can quell the rebels, do you think it is easy to deal with? Not to mention that he is extremely loyal to the Ming family, he will never do anything to betray the emperor, and what we have to do is exactly the opposite of what he wants to do, for his own life, he doesn't dare to mess around, the emperor has already killed more than one southeast minister.

The entourage smiled and said: "Since the master said so, there must be a way to deal with Zhu Kun, so the old guy who eats the ancient should be eradicated as soon as possible." ”
The man in Tsing Yi said with a smile: "Eradication is inevitable, but when Zhu Kun first came to Susong, he won over Zheng Guang, who has a great reputation in the land of Susong, this is not easy to do, although Zheng Guang is young, but in the southeast, especially in Nanzhili and Zhejiang, Suzhou City was rescued by his family twice, and he is still the only student of Tang Shunzhi, if he tries his best to help Zhu Kun, we may not be able to get benefits." ”
The attendant asked: "But Zheng Guang's father died at the hands of Xu Hai and others, we and Xu Hai are in a cooperative relationship, how can Zheng Guang help us and others?" ”
The man in Tsing Yi said with a smile: "That's Xu Hai's business, it's not our business, it's Xu Hai's subordinates who killed Zheng Guang's father, not us, besides, we didn't object to Zheng Guang's killing of the Japanese Kou, he killed him if he wanted to, what does those untouchables have to do with us?" What we have to do is to persuade Zheng Guang not to stand on Zhu Kun's side, and when we make a move, don't help Zhu Kun, let Zhu Kun be defeated and killed, then that's fine. ”
The attendant said worriedly: "Will Zheng Guang agree?" ”
The man in Tsing Yi shrugged: "Who knows? But as the saying goes, things are man-made, the key depends on how we do it, Zheng Guang and Zhu Kun have only known each other for a month, and they don't have such a deep relationship, besides, Zheng Guang's family is in Suzhou, as long as we ensure that Suzhou is safe and sound, it has nothing to do with Zheng Guang, but Zhu Kun is the governor of Su Song, and any place in the land of Su Song is invaded by Japanese invaders, and Zhu Kun is duty-bound. ”
The entourage was still a little uneasy, and continued to ask, "Then what if Zheng Guang really doesn't agree?" ”
The man in Tsing Yi took a deep breath, narrowed his eyes, and was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke: "I am not too sure about this matter, so let's wait for a hotel to stay in first, and then go to see Zheng Guang when the situation is clear, if something is slightly wrong, we will leave immediately, lest Zheng Guang follow the vine and find out something that should not be found, then we will be to blame." ”
The entourage nodded: "Then the villain will do it." ”
The man in Tsing Yi waved his hand and asked his entourage to run errands, and he stayed here, looking at the hot project in the distance, thoughtfully.
At the same time that the man in Tsing Yi and his entourage checked into the hotel in Yiwu County, an urgent document was delivered to Zheng Guang, which was sent by Zhu Kun, Zheng Guang, who was drinking with Xu Wei to celebrate the completion of the achievement, immediately changed his face after reading the paperwork, his brows were furrowed, Xu Wei was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Did the Japanese attack Su Song? ”
Zheng Guang put down the paperwork, nodded and said: "The Japanese invaders dispatched more than 3,000 people to attack Taicang Prefecture, killing more than 800 people of the Taicang Prefecture army, Taicang Prefecture suffered heavy losses, and now the Japanese Kou have rushed straight to Kunshan, and there are signs of advancing Susong's inland, Futai has mobilized more than 10,000 Su Song's soldiers who are being trained to support in the direction of Kunshan, so that I can prepare here, once the front line is defeated, my new army has to be used." ”
Xu Wei was shocked, hurriedly took the document and looked at it, and put down the document with a solemn face: "This is not an ordinary temptation, this is to coerce you to make a move, Pingzhi, there are no elite soldiers and strong generals in Futai, even if all the Suzhou soldiers are dispatched, they can only defend the city and set off firearms and the like, the Japanese are very good at field attacks, once the soldiers of Futai are intercepted and killed by the Japanese in the middle of the way, they will be defeated." ”
Zheng Guang nodded and said: "I'm so worried, even if I train firearms, they can only be used in the battle to defend the city, once they are raided by the Japanese in the field, the firearms have no chance to be used at all, those guards will only run away, and they won't do anything, Tang Kekuan and Lu Bo have not been in Susong's area to suppress thieves recently, there are no reinforcements to help, once Futai is defeated, we must be dispatched to support Futai, otherwise Suzhou Mansion will be very dangerous." ”
Xu Wei nodded and said: "Now the Japanese are still wreaking havoc in Taicang Prefecture, once they attack Kunshan, it will be equivalent to entering Suzhou Mansion, not only Futai is in danger, but your benefactor Fan Qing is also in danger, he is now Su Song's army, the two of them are in trouble, you have to dispatch, now, how is your new army training?" Can I play? ”
Zheng Guang hesitated: "It's only been less than a month of training, how elite can it be, even if the Yiwu soldiers are of high quality, the soldiers are brave and good at fighting, but the battle array and their fighting are not the same concept, the Japanese are so fierce, they are facing the Japanese for the first time, I really have no confidence, I was going to take them back to Suzhou to train firearms after training here, but there was this incident again, Wen Chang, Zhejiang really has no soldiers to fight to support Futai?" ”
Xu Wei shook his head: "It's not that there are no soldiers to fight, but there are no soldiers who dare to fight and generals who dare to fight, there are soldiers, tens of thousands, and there are generals, at least hundreds, but they don't dare to fight!" ”
Zheng Guang closed his eyes and sighed slightly, and said for a long time: "If Futai really needs it, I don't have any way, I must send troops, now, we have to race against time to train the new army, so that it can come in handy when necessary, anyway, sooner or later, they will have to face the Japanese Kou, they have all seen blood and are not afraid of the Japanese Kou, even if they are right, they may not necessarily lose, Wen Chang, you reply to Futai for me, just say that Zheng Guang is always ready to support Futai, as long as Futai gives an order, within three days, the army will arrive!" ”
Zheng Guang is ready to fight against the water, and repay Zhu Kun's kindness and trust with practical actions, and also repay Fan Qing's kindness of help, but Fan Qing is Fan Qing, Zhu Kun is Zhu Kun, two capable officials get together, they can still do something, even if the Japanese are still fierce and the guards are still incompetent, but Fan Qing still entered Kunshan County with the fastest speed, facing the menacing Japanese Invaders, and posed the same artillery group as Zheng Guang to bombard the Japanese Invaders. He actually repelled the Japanese invaders.
This is the third day of October in the twenty-fifth year of Jiajing, Suzhou prefect and Su Song soldier Fan Qing led 10,000 troops into Kunshan, rushed to set up defense before the Japanese invaders, when the Japanese invaders came, they only saw the guards and crooked flags on the head of the city, and thought that Kunshan had given up defense, so they relaxed, led the army close to Kunshan to prepare to easily break the city, they also had artillery and firearms, but they did not expect that the artillery and magic rockets on the city were dozens of times more than theirs.
Waiting for the Japanese to enter the range of artillery, Fan Qing gave an order, the Ming army suddenly pushed all the artillery to the battlements, the Japanese under the frightened, before they had time to escape, more than 30 artillery pieces were quickly fired, the Japanese were caught off guard, heavy casualties, followed by the shooting of the divine rocket, and the counterattack of the crossbowmen at the head of the city, the Japanese invaders were defeated in this burst of artillery fire and arrow rain and retreated to the direction of Taicang Prefecture, failed to further capture Kunshan County, Fan Qing once again made a military exploit.
But this time Fan Qing did not go out of the city to pursue like Zheng Guang last time, but he just defended the city and did not come out, he knew that now he did not have the same fierce generals as Zheng Guang, and he could not fight with the Japanese invaders, so he suppressed several officers with troops, and did not let them pursue, and it turned out that Fan Qing was right, because a day later, the spies sent by Fan Qing to probe the news of the direction of Taicang Prefecture reported that more than 2,000 Japanese invaders organized themselves to invade Taicang Prefecture, and the remnants of Taicang Prefecture were defeated and killed again, and invaded Kunshan County again.
Fan Qing became nervous again, and once again sent a warning and a request for help to Zhu Kun -- the Japanese invaded Kunshan by 2,000 troops, a total of more than 4,000 troops to attack Kunshan, and the previous plan could no longer be used, and the Japanese were bound to increase the number of firearms and the intensity of the siege, and our army was afraid that there would be trouble, so we asked Futai to reinforce as appropriate, and the other subordinates intended to move the people of Kunshan County out to Suzhou to resettle in the direction of Suzhou, so as not to harm the people, and asked Futai to send someone to answer and serve Fan Qing.
Without waiting for Zhu Kun's reply, Fan Qing began to arrange for the people of Kunshan County to withdraw from Kunshan in large quantities and go to Suzhou, and he led the army to defend in Kunshan County to buy time for the people, and the people of Kunshan were very grateful to Fan Qing, but what made Fan Qing feel angry and sad was that more than 2,000 soldiers took advantage of the chaos in the city and the migration of the people to change into the people's clothes and fled out of Kunshan County, and they were nowhere to be found, and many of the wounded soldiers before also fled, and did not obey Fan Qing's orders at all.
Now Fan Qing completely understands why Zheng Guang does not use the ready-made troops instead of going to Yiwu to recruit new troops, these guards who don't even care about the life and safety of the main general, it is really not worth continuing to give them a chance to the limit, if they can survive this time, Fan Qing decided to suggest to Zhu Kun that these guards should be removed!
