Chapter 652: Retreat from the Army (II)
Jiajing is really nothing to find fault with in terms of being a person, and Yang Chengzu was appointed to deal with such a big matter, and he did not send eunuchs to follow. According to the general situation, if there is no confidant such as a eunuch in this kind of negotiation with the Tatar chieftain, then the handler can easily be charged with collusion with foreign captives and conspiracy against the Tartars. Yang Chengzu did ask the Son of Heaven that it was best to send a eunuch to follow, which would also be convenient for him to call the shots.
However, Jiajing's answer was also very direct: "If I send eunuchs, it means that I don't trust my eldest brother enough, and if I don't trust my eldest brother enough, then who can I trust?" The Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, inside and outside the court, and I could trust the ministers, but the eldest brother and Wenfu were two. There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people. I may not be able to do these eight words to others, but there is no problem here, big brother, you do things, I can rest assured. Besides, if I send a eunuch, then the captive woman must think that I have doubts about the eldest brother, how dare she believe what the eldest brother says, then can we continue to talk? ”
With this attitude, even if Yang Chengzu completely lets go of his hands and feet, he doesn't have to worry that someone will break his elbow. There is no need to worry about signing a treaty of loss of power and humiliating the country, and being counted backwards by the counterattack. Due to the fact that the private soldiers of the noble families went out to fight a battle before and won many rewards, the Beijing camp and the squad army were quite jealous, and the fighting mood was high, or in other words, there were more and more blind combat behaviors.
This is also the kind of guidance that the cabinet worried about before has become a fact, the military leaders are greedy for bounties, and the soldiers are also red-eyed, lack a correct estimate of their own strength, and blindly go out to fight.
These troops seldom cooperated with each other, and friendly troops were as immobile as a mountain in the face of death, and the attack was unfavorable and turned into the skilfulness of playing like the wind, and even the killing of good people and the merit of merit often occurred. As for the record, as predicted by the cabinet, there were more defeats and fewer victories, and the battles were very sparse. Fortunately, there is the Beijing division behind it, and if you can't win, you will flee back, and the troops invested by the Mongols are also limited, so there is no big victory with a victory, and the defeat is also a small defeat, which is not enough to affect the situation.
However, taking advantage of this atmosphere, Yang Chengzu mixed in a cavalry team that went out of the city, and then encountered Luo Feihong's subordinates and was coerced to her station. After meeting, Yang Chengzu demonstrated what is the prestige of the Han Dynasty and what is the prestige of the Great Tomorrow.
It wasn't until the wind stopped and the rain stopped, and the two changed from treating each other sincerely to being well-dressed, that Yang Chengzu took out the holy decree he brought. Luo Feihong took the holy decree, and her mouth pouted slightly, "Mrs. Zhongshun?" That's it? This is inevitably a little stingy, I thought I could be crowned a king. ”
"Does it make a difference? Whether it is the king or the lady, it is the same thing in short. You have to think about it, when did Da Ming make a woman king? Actually, this is a flower head, whether it is the king or the lady, in short, you are the lord of the grassland recognized by the emperor, and this is enough. With this, you can seal a bunch of thousands of households, thousands of households, princesses, and even princes to go out, and they won't be troublesome. What's more, the border marshal may not admit the account of the previous border marshal, but it is not good to deny the holy decree. Da Ming has always been generous to scholars, but unfortunately Bian Shuai is not among them. Which side marshal dares to say that the order is not followed, and the next thing is to cut off his head and copy his home. ”
Luo Feihong carefully put the holy decree away, leaned into his arms, "My good man, as soon as you say this, I want it again." I have taken this decree and your thousands of descendants, and you must not forget the armor, the firearms, and the food. Think about it, the future lady of Zhongshun on the grassland, if you want to ride as you want, how enjoyable is it? ”
Yang Chengzu put his hand on her chest, "Don't say that it's useless, you take the soldiers away first." Not only the ironclad firearms, but even the horse market, I can also open it, but under the siege of the army, don't talk about this, if I talk about this now, it will be a slap in the face. The things you want, I will go through the business road and deliver them to you through the horse gang, but let's talk about the ugly things in front, my brother will settle the account, not to mention that I am going to marry a wife, and the private money is very limited. This batch of goods is for you, and if you want the next batch, you can exchange it for real money. ”
Luo Feihong nodded, his eyes flowed, and his veins were affectionate, "I can tell you, Daming's caravan, I only recognize you." Also, remember to bring me some of your writings, letters, in short, let me see your things, or I will miss you. ”
Although Yang Chengzu won't believe a word of this kind of words, the acting skills of both of them can be done, and they take it as true. When it was getting late, Luo Feihong sent a guard to escort Yang Chengzu and began to go in the direction of Jingshi. In the past few days, she has completed the second integration of the tribe, and the entire guard has been grasped in her hands. These twenty or so horsemen were selected from the guards, who were excellent in archery and equestrianism, and they were all wearing heavy iron armor, which was enough to ensure safety.
Now Yang Chengzu's identity is not only a messenger between the two forces, but also an investor to ensure Luo Feihong's plan, and his safety is naturally protected. The vicinity of Gyeonggi was not peaceful, the Mongolian rangers who plundered everywhere, the Ming soldiers who came out to cut off people's heads for money, the stragglers who were scattered and did not have time to enter the city, and even the bandits and horses and the so-called "protection of the territory and the people" of the rivers and lakes were all deadly enemies.
Fortunately, this team of people is not easy to mess with, and it doesn't look like there is a lot of oil and water no matter how you look at it, and few people take the initiative to provoke. There was only a team of Jianghu people under the banner of a certain sect, who did not know whether they were alive or dead, and they wanted to kill the thieves, but before they could get closer, they ate a meal of arrows, and then fled and did not know where to go.
In another mountain forest, the White Lotus Sect Master, who was alias Zhang Yin, gently threw a few stones in his hand and looked at Leng Feishuang in front of him. "Frost, you've already decided? Are you really going undercover with him? ”
"Master, Yang Chengzu's wings are growing, I'm afraid he is the second Jiang Bin. He needs the eyes and ears of the Holy Sect by his side, and he may be an extremely important chess piece in our hands in the future. When necessary, it is also convenient for the disciples to serve the Holy Sect and get rid of this great trouble. ”
Zhang Yin shook his head, "Master also understands the truth you said, but you are different from Feihong." You've never had a ...... with a man Once you are emotional, it is difficult to do it again. ”
"Master rest assured, the disciple's heart sutra has been completed, and he will not have feelings of love for men, and he will never move a love word."
"Well, since you have decided, you have fulfilled your wishes as a teacher. But you have to hurt a little bit before he can trust you. From now on, you will use all your strength to escape, and the teacher will hit you with these three stones. I won't keep my hands, you be careful yourself. ”
Leng Feishuang nodded on his toes, and swept forward like a Limbo fairy. Due to the relationship between gender, women's external skills or strength are not as good as men's, but most of the women who can break into the rivers and lakes are a little hot in light skills. No matter how strong a person's force is, after all, it is still flesh and blood, and the projection range of the stone is limited, Leng Feishuang believes that as long as he does it with all his strength, he can escape from the effective scope of the stone in an instant.
Just as her body flew up, there was an incredible sound of breaking the sky behind her, holding the wind and thunder, and its momentum was almost not inferior to the fire gun!
In the night, he could already see the lights of the Jingshi City in the distance, and Yang Chengzu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he was finally safe here. But at this moment, from a distance, a fierce sword collision sounded, and it seemed that a group of people and horses in the middle of fire moved in the direction where he was.
He didn't intend to cause trouble, nor did he think about chivalry, and the horses didn't stop, but at this moment, a man's voice mixed with the sound of tearing and killing drifted into his ears.
"Such a beautiful woman must not be hacked to death, she must be caught alive. Let's work hard, and take it and take your turn. ”
"Let's take a look."
Yang Chengzu commanded, although these Mongolian guards were not under his command, but they couldn't see him enter the dangerous place alone, so he had to urge his mount and follow him to the area of battle, and then he saw Leng Feishuang, who was half covered in blood and embarrassed.
