The content of the meeting, the theme is to play.

Lin Shuang'er, who finally attended the meeting as a cottage secretary, muttered in a low voice, if you can't beat hard, it's better to make people unable to go back to their parents' homes.

This was originally a woman's family, and the words of a little daughter who were angry, but Zhu Zilong immediately felt that the authorities were confused, and the bystanders were clear.

Yes, I don't have many soldiers, so I can't go too far beyond the limit.

Mother's family, mother's family, the Qing army's mother's family, isn't it converted to his hometown territory?

So, Zhu Zilong began to closely let people scout the movements of the Qing army, and the little brother of the giant eagle was also released to inquire about the news throughout the day.

Soon, after a week, an accurate return was obtained.

The Qing army really made a bloody investment, and increased the army of 100,000 in Mongolia, and learned that Huang Taiji personally led the team. Coupled with the previous army, almost 150,000 troops, plus the surrendered army of the Mongols, the 200,000 army showed a posture of wanting to completely destroy Lin Dan Khan in one fell swoop.

However, in this way, the rear of the Qing army will be greatly emptied.

At most, there are 20,000 or 30,000 Qing troops left in the territory of Liaodong, and it is obviously not enough to see such a large territory defended by such soldiers.

Maybe you have to ask, with such 85% of the Qing army's strength coming out of the country, aren't you afraid that someone will hit their rear?

Actually, there's a reason for that.

Since August last year, there has been no rain in Shanxi and Shaanxi, and the land has been red for thousands of miles, the people are hungry, and people are cannibalistic. The people are hungry and chaotic, and the Ming will kill more good and risky achievements. The counties of Zhongzhou are more afraid of officers and soldiers than "thieves".

The border army could only defend the city and did not dare to fight outside, and some troops on the Shanhaiguan side may dare to fight, but this time they did not fight there.

The North Korean side finally came to the time of the autumn harvest, according to the usual situation, one is not courageous, the second is incapable, and the third is not available.

Don't worry about foreign enemies, you can rest assured that you can destroy Lin Dan Khan first.

It's a pity that Zhu Zilong's goods are open, and you can't use common sense to judge at all, so!

Of course, Huang Taiji was not completely defenseless in the rear, so he let the 20,000 or 30,000 Qing troops who stayed behind arrange a Qing army all the way to take the initiative to attack Lushun.

The significance of this is naturally to take this place and deter Shandong and North Korea. And prevent anyone from going to the coastline from here!

However, because of this, the troops he retained to defend his hometown were even weaker because of the division of troops.

At this time, the general army of Lushun Ming was Huanglong, and when he saw the Qing army attacking. Hurriedly asked Sun Yuanhua in Shandong for help!

This time, Sun Yuanhua panicked, the salary he gave to Huang Long before was discounted, and the food was given by Zhu Zilong for free. He himself embezzled part of it for the sake of making cannons.

Sun Yuanhua's first reaction was to send someone to Beijing to report the news, and the second was to find Zhu Zilong and ask him to help support, after all, the Zhu family army in the whole Shandong is the most combative.

Zhu Zilong also gave Sun Yuanhua face, and soon came. A group of other civil officials and generals from Shandong are also here!

"Jiannu covets Lushun, and the Huanglong soldiers are outnumbered, so they can't help but save them. Long Hou, you are the chief soldier of the Navy Division, tell me what to do? As soon as Sun Yuanhua opened his mouth, he relied on Zhu Zilong.

There's no way, no one can count on it, only look at Zhu Jiajun.

Zhu Zilong has been an official for a long time, and he knows that he can't say things too quickly, and he can't guarantee that things are too full, so he won't answer him too much first.

Sun Yuanhua suddenly became more anxious, and said: "This constitution can allocate 150,000 taels of silver for Lushun's military salary. In addition, the treasury has freshly harvested summer grain, which can allocate 5,000 stone of miscellaneous grain and 1,000 stone of wheat. ”

The meaning of these words is to imply that Zhu Zilong will be asked to send troops, but he will not send troops in vain, and he will give money and food.

However, Zhu Zilong had other ideas, thought about it and replied: "Zhongcheng, there is something unclear about Benhou, please give me advice." ”

Sun Yuanhua's heart was cold, but he said kindly: "Long Hou, please speak." ”

So, in the next second, Zhu Zilong sneered: "The same general soldier, Huang Long has more than 10,000 soldiers under his command. Jiannu is coming, and it is the duty of a soldier to go on an expedition. The Huanglong War Report said that the Houjin army was no less than 50,000, how big is Lushun City? That's all, he should have no problem defending the city, and he doesn't need our support! ”

Sun Yuanhua was stunned when he said this, Huang Long was his confidant.

It's just that when it comes to so many soldiers, even pigs know that this is Huanglong's exaggeration of the number of his soldiers, in order to eat empty wages and embezzle.

For a while, Sun Yuanhua felt that his face was red with Zhu Zilong's words. It's not just Huanglong's old bottom, but even his is counted.

Corruption and empty salaries, the entire Ming generals do this, it's nothing.

Thinking of this and suppressing his anger, Sun Yuanhua also asked with a cold face: "Then Longhou said, what should I do?" ”

Zhu Zilong said lightly: "Let him guard Lushun by himself, and the money and grain are out of Dengzhou." If he can defend it, he will hold it, and if he can't hold it, he will withdraw. ”

These words were obviously too slap in the face, Sun Yuanhua was furious, and stood up and shouted: "Longhou, the safety of Lushun is related to the society and the future of everyone here. ”

Zhu Zilong sneered in his heart, I used to respect you as a technical official, but I didn't expect that you were not very capable, and you also learned to be corrupt, and the more you got bigger.

Future, are you worried about your own future?

When Sun Yuanhua finished speaking and sat down again, Zhu Zilong said slowly: "Lord Zhongcheng, don't get angry, I haven't finished my words yet." Huanglong has tens of thousands of troops under his name, and if he loses Lushun, he will be responsible for taking it back. ”

Those who said this were dumbfounded!

Zhu Zilong's subtext is obviously a multiple-choice question for everyone, of course, mainly Sun Yuanhua's people.

First, Lao Tzu has long seen that Huanglong is not pleasing to the eye, so withdraw him, and Lushun will be under my control in the future. But on the bright side, it can't be said that I am a black hand, everyone goes up together, and gives an excuse to get on the table.

Second, I don't care about this, let Huanglong and his soldiers fend for themselves.

In summary, sacrifice Huanglong one, and be happy with you, me and him.

Zhu Zilong also did this for his reasons, that is, to gradually eliminate Sun Yuanhua's influence in Shandong, as well as the presence of the original local bureaucrats and generals. In addition, if you can bring down Huang Long, who has always been disobedient, and then accept his subordinates, mainly Dongjiang soldiers, and reorganize it, it will be easy to have more than thousands of capable soldiers.

When the time comes, the obedient will be temporarily retained, and the disobedient will be reduced and left one after another. And so on to all aspects, Shandong is gradually completely in the hands, and the big time is just around the corner. Now is the first step in this long-term plan!

Just when the Shandong officials were silent for a while, the eunuch Wang Quan spoke.

"This Yellow Dragon is really. In vain spent the money and food of the imperial court, and in case of trouble, it was completely poor. is so stupid and neglects state affairs, our family must participate in his book. Do you think so? ”

Immediately, some Shandong officials who took refuge in Zhu Zilong began to respond positively.

"Huanglong is incompetent, he can't fight because he spends money and silver, what's the use of keeping it? This officer agrees with the opinion of the overseer! ”

"It is claimed that it has tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and it is only Lushun that it cannot be defended, and Huanglong's problem is very big."

With the conformity of these people, some of Shandong's neutral officials also began to waver. After all, you can eat and drink spicy food if you follow Zhu Zilong, and follow Sun Yuanhua, it seems that it is just like that.

Only some Shandong officials, represented by the landlord stage, spoke out against it, but it was obvious that there were more people on Zhu Zilong's side.

In the end, Sun Yuanhua seemed to accept his fate, after all, compared to his henchmen, Lushun was more culpable for the loss, so he had to speak out and agree with taking Huanglong after the war to ask for the guilt.

It was only at this time that Zhu Zilong stood up with a smile and arched his hand: "Within ten days, the Zhu family's army will send troops to Lushun." ”-
