Zhang Tinggong only felt that he was chilling all over his body now, and he couldn't stop swinging. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

If the imperial court strictly ordered Datong Town to send troops to the west, then at that time, the entire military town would only have to give desperate advice.

Although Li Jian is a Beijing official, he is no stranger to the place, and he was shocked when he heard this, "Could it be that Datong Town is so erosive that it is also eroded?" ”

Where did Zhang Tinggong dare to give him the truth, if he participated in a book, he would not be able to make it difficult for him to be a man, but if he didn't talk about it, he would inevitably be called to be a substitute for the dead, thinking of this, he couldn't help but resent Gao Xun.

Gao Xun, who originally belonged to the imperial court general, in the orthodox history, should have been ready to take over the post of Shanxi town commander of You Shilu at this time, but after Datong was attacked by Lin Dan Khan, the court was furious and held all the military attaches of the town guilty, and Gao Xun was promoted to the post of chief soldier without fault.

At this moment, Zhang Tinggong had already called someone to invite.

But Li Jian asked too quickly, and Zhang Tinggong didn't answer well, so he could only avoid the important and said lightly, "So that the angel knows that Datong Town was poisoned by the Mongolian Tartars before, and it has not been cured so far, and all departments are short of soldiers and horses. ”

"The security of the country is at stake, and Futai must not shirk." Li Jian doesn't know what to say now, he inspected Datong Shanxi, originally to understand the degree of local civil unrest, deep imperial grace, but he didn't want to be stunned by the chaos in Shaanxi as soon as he arrived at the jurisdiction of the Shanxi Political Envoy Division, and he was not in tune with his words at the moment.

Coupled with the fatigue of the journey, he didn't want to say anything, but the situation was critical, and he had to hold his body and chat with Zhang Tinggong without a match, until Gao Xun walked up quickly, he pinched the official tone and said, "Is the chief soldier okay?" ”

Gao Xun glanced at Zhang Tinggong hesitantly, but did not answer, but his eyes changed, and he heard Zhang Tinggong cough, "The chief soldier sits first." ”

"What's the matter with Futai looking for me?" Gao Xun saw that the two adults were in the ranks, and their faces were not so good-looking, so he was worried and did not dare to sit down.

Zhang Tinggong shook his head and pointed to the vacant seat beside him, "You sit down first and then talk." ”

"Shaanxi mourned the five mansions, Hanzhong general Tang Tong, sent an envoy to the north through Shanxi Town, and the governor Zhang Daren wrote a letter at the same time, and Datong Town is afraid that it will move south."

"Huh?" As soon as Gao Xunfang sat down, he jumped to his feet in shock when he heard this, "How can this be done?" ”

glanced at Li Jian who was staring at him again, and only felt that his scalp was numb for a while, but he didn't dare not say it, for fear that he would be withdrawn from the top tank, so he hurriedly said, "Two adults, Datong Town's military equipment is not repaired, and it has been abandoned for two years. ”

He was newly transferred, and he didn't want to take his back on his predecessor's, if it weren't for Zhang Tinggong to ask him about this, he wouldn't dare to say it, so as not to tear his face.

But now, the situation has reached this point, and if he doesn't lift the lid on this muddy pond, I'm afraid that when the time comes, he will have to go up.

"Why, come quickly." When Li Jian heard this, he was immediately worried, and he didn't care about taking care of the face of Zhang Tinggong, the governor of Datong, and asked hurriedly.

However, Gao Xun is not a bad person, he has something to say, and it is good to put aside a little of his guilt, if he talks about it in detail, he is afraid that he will offend Zhang Tinggong ruthlessly, so he looks at him hesitantly, and does not dare to say more.

"Cough~" Zhang Tinggong slowly took a pot of tea on the balcony, several thoughts flashed in his mind, after pondering the situation, he felt that it was unnecessary to hide it any longer, as long as the imperial court transferred troops from Datong, it would be able to know sooner or later, why bother to ask his own family to carry this big cauldron.

Therefore, he said to Gao Xun Yuese, "The chief soldier just talk about it, the angel and I will not blame." ”

Li Jian knew that the matter was urgent, so he asked for the holy decree in his arms, and said in a loud voice, "This official asked on behalf of the Holy Son of Heaven, how are the military preparations in Datong Town, and it is not as quick as possible. ”

When Gao Xun heard this, he was immediately stupid, and looked at him with a playful look, and Li Jian's constant persecution, so he had to simply lose his head, take a few steps back directly, and kneel down towards the east, "Gao Xun, the chief military officer of Datong Town, long live my emperor,"

After the first salute, he said slowly, "The military affairs of Datong Town are in vain." ”

"Huh?" Li Jian was almost unable to stand up by the news, and thanks to Zhang Tinggong's support, he barely stood on his feet, and shouted wildly, "Don't talk nonsense." ”

Gao Xun laughed miserably, "Angel, how dare I talk nonsense in front of the Holy Son of Heaven, it is really Datong Town, and there are no soldiers to adjust!" ”

"Tell the truth." Li Jian only felt that his heart was empty and there was no one to rely on, but where his responsibilities were, he couldn't help but ask clearly.

"Back to Qincha, Datong has five guards in the left and right of Zhongtun, and there are 28,000 registered soldiers, but in fact there are less than 6,000, and more than half of them are old, weak, sick and disabled," Gao Xun said without tears, hearing this, even Zhang Tinggong's face changed, he always knew that the shortage of soldiers in Datong Town was serious, but it was by no means clear and thorough.

Even Datong Wuwei has reached this point, so what about the others? Wouldn't it be even more?

Sure enough, I heard Gao Xun continue, "The rest of the eight guards such as Yunchuan, Yanghe, Yulin, Gaoshan, Tiancheng, Weiyuan, Zhenlu, and Pinglu, or thousands, or hundreds, are all eight or nine out of ten are insufficient, and there are 47,000 registered military horses, but in fact there are only 3,000. ”

Anyway, it was all said, Gao Xun no longer concealed it, and simply lost it, "There are thousands of guards and so on, all of them are old, weak, sick and disabled troops, so calculated, Datong Town actually has less than 20,000 soldiers and horses, of which those who are good at fighting can go out of the wilderness, less than 5,000, and the previous Andong Zhongtun guard elite soldiers went south to Taiyuan Town to quell the chaos, in fact, the whole army was wiped out, and there was not a single soldier and a pawn." ”

"Bang~", Li Jian's hands and feet were cold, and he sat directly on the stool, bringing down the pot of tea, but let him wet his clothes and official robes without paying attention.

"Hugh is going to mention it again, Hugh is going to mention it again." Just said two mouths weakly, and the entire pavilion instantly quieted down, Gao Xun knelt on the ground, lowered his head but didn't dare to raise his head, and Zhang Tinggong opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time.

Who knows, the huge Datong Town, on the paper there are fifteen elite soldiers in the guard, the account book says 100,000 elites, 40,000 horsemen, in fact, there is not one in ten, if this situation is reported, I am afraid that the court will be angry, and the governor will have to be below the general army, and all of them will be asked.

Gao Xun didn't dare not mention it, but kept touching the ground with his head, and soon brought up a piece of redness and swelling, which made people very unbearable, "My lord, Datong Town, it is already a void, please have mercy on my lord, call my emperor Shengshang, Hugh will transfer troops to Ma Xi to help, otherwise Datong Town will be closed!" ”

"Then what about your Tao now, if there is no elite soldiers to help from the west, then the three sides will no longer be there, and the Son of Heaven will be angry, and he will break our corpses into thousands of pieces." Li Jian didn't know where the strength came from, and roared directly, thinking that he could encounter such a difficult thing when he inspected the place, it was really the smoke of the ancestral tomb.

"My lord, now His Royal Highness King Han doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, Tang Tong sent someone to report urgently, there must be a straight way to the capital, the imperial court will inevitably order the transfer of a town of elite soldiers to the west, Taiyuan Town can not be transferred, Xuanfu is responsible for the defense of Gyeonggi, and it cannot be moved lightly, and now only my Datong Town family can be transferred." Zhang Tinggong thought about what was about to happen, and there was a convulsion.

"Futai, there is still a military horse that can save me and wait." When Gao Xun heard this, he immediately spoke.

When Zhang Tinggong heard this, his expression did change, "You said that the soldiers and horses that recruited An?" ”

Li Jian also changed his complexion when he heard this, and another important purpose of his visit was to supervise this recruiting army of soldiers and horses for the imperial court, and it was best to disintegrate them and eliminate their threat to the local area, but in the end, he had to stand up for this army and horses, which was really impermanent.

I have to say that Gao Xun still has a bit of a brain, at least this plan to drive away the wolf and devour the tiger is still good, "Exactly, I heard that this soldier and horse, known as a strong general, if you can call the imperial court to give an order, allow it to aid Shaanxi in the west, you will be able to extinguish the rebellion, even if it doesn't work, it can also consume the strength of the thief army, and wait for the imperial court to mobilize an army and annihilate it together, wouldn't it be happy?!" ”

When the two of them heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, the secret way is also a good way, Zhang Tinggong naturally has to think about Datong Town, otherwise once the paper is punctured, he will be in prison alone.

As for Li Jian, with the emperor's grace, he came to weaken Li Jing, and this plan is also in line with his heart, plus he is doing an errand for the imperial court, after considering it thoroughly, he also feels that if Datong Town is chaotic again, I am afraid that the country and society will not be protected, so he nodded and said, "If this is the case, it is the best of both worlds." ”

But soon, he wondered, "If the thief goes to Shaanxi, if he occupies his heel, his momentum will be even greater, wouldn't he send birds into the forest?" ”

Zhang Tinggong can only explain stubbornly for the sake of the prospects of Datong Town, "Angels don't worry, how elite the soldiers and horses on the three sides of Shaanxi are, but they can't go three rounds in the hands of the thief army, I expect the thieves to be huge, and then there is the Hanzhong general Tang Tong to corroborate, saying that the thieves have dozens of roads, and there are four or five hundred thousand military horses." ”

He also said, "The army of Taiyuan Zhao'an is nothing more than 100,000 people, if it is sincere to recruit and serve the imperial court, it will inevitably obey the order, lead the troops westward, and fight the thief, then the thief will be free to fight; If it harbors evil intentions and pretends to appease them, it will inevitably seek an opportunity to grow, and this imperial court order, the name is justified, and I expect that it will inevitably lead its troops westward, fight with thieves, expand the territory, and also fight thieves without worry. ”

"If it is the words of Lao Chengmou for the country," Li Jian nodded, and replied with great satisfaction, "Wonderful, it should be so!" ”

stepped forward to help Gao Xun up, and then said, "I will wait for an urgent report to the imperial court overnight for 800 miles, and ask Li Jing, the deputy chief soldier of Ningwu, to lead the army to the west to quell the rebellion. ”

"Whoa." Gao Xun saw that the hot potato was thrown out, so he was overjoyed, as for the military horses in the south to appease what happened, he sneered, went west to suppress the thieves, said four or five hundred thousand people, if it really fought, it must be a defeat for both sides, then the court went to a big hidden danger, Datong Town can also breathe a sigh of relief, after all, there are 100,000 people in the south eyeing each other, and no one is at ease.
