"This battle is the battle of Lushun's life and death, Yang Boshi is powerless to distract him, so he is to ask the military gate and Lord Yang to maintain a few more words from Changping's side" Lushun General's Mansion, Yang Bo said to Yan Kunzhi, the governor of Jiliao, and Yang Wenyue, the governor of Jiliao.

The imperial court sent two imperial historians of the Imperial Court and a military department squire, and a Jinyi guard commander named Luo Yangxing, under the leadership of Yan Kunzhi, the governor of Jiliao, to Dengzhou, Yang Bo did not go to Dengzhou under the pretext of the military emergency, Yan Kunzhi and others had to take a boat to Lushun in person.

Yang Wenyue nodded and said: "The general can rest assured, this Fuzi will play with the name of the governor, and it will not make it difficult for the general, the military situation of Yangguanbao is like fire, the general's righteousness is the most important, and the court will definitely give the general an explanation for the matter of Changping." ”

Yang Bo sneered a few words in his heart, and said with a pale face: "It's just that the weather is cold, the coastal ice is beginning to freeze gradually, and it is difficult for tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Lushun to report to the imperial court, but the military horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and the soldiers can't fight hungry, but the household department has repeatedly seized the grain and grass support, and the expenses are ......unknown."

Yang Wenyue looked at Yan Kunzhi, Yan Kunzhi closed his eyes and was silent, Yang Wenyue was a little displeased, but he forced a smile and said, "Isn't the 20,000 reward promised by the imperial court last time in place?" ”

Yang Bo snorted and said: "It's only a little more than 10,000 yuan, that's it, the silver can't be eaten, the supply of rice and grain can't be cut off in a day, at present, there is not much grain in Yangguan Fort, and I also ask Lord Yang to play the imperial court, please allocate three months' salary, 200,000 taels of silver in Anjia, 30,000 stones of rice grain, 3,000 rods of Lumi gun, and a number of other ......forage equipment."

Yang Bo's lion opened its mouth to surprise everyone, and the imperial historians who traveled with him all showed indignant expressions. Even Yan Kunzhi opened his eyes.

"The last general is willing to be at the disposal of your lords, but the news that the regimental training camp was forced to rebel has reached Lushun, and the local soldiers and civilians are panicked. The soldiers have no fighting spirit, the Yangguan Fort is in danger, and if they can't be appeased, the last general will not dare to guarantee what the soldiers below will do. ”

These Yang Wenyue didn't dare to nod, Yang Bo's words were already obvious, if the court didn't agree to his blackmail, the consequences would be unimaginable, but this person's official position was not high. The status is indeed extraordinary, and once something happens, the consequences are worrying.

Yan Kunzhi came with a secret decree, and some words were difficult to say clearly. Then he said lightly: "The governor will report to the court truthfully, and the general also needs to appease the people and work together to destroy slaves." ”

Yan Kunzhi's words are meaningful, this time he came to Lushun. Many people along the way were quite indifferent to their Qincha and his party. He didn't know that Zhang Dabao had mobilized all the means and forces of the Propaganda Department, including storytelling, singing, and newspapers, under the overwhelming propaganda offensive. The tragic experience of the regimental training camp made everyone indignant, and the imperial court treated the regimental training camp of King Qianliqin like this. So that many people with the original belief in loyalty and patriotism were shattered, even the officials in the Denglai area were quite sympathetic to the plight of the regimental training camp, they were either sparse or privately discussed, and they all stood on Yang Bo's side, and Emperor Chongzhen's seizure of power this time can be said to be worth the loss.

But Yan Kunzhi had no choice, Emperor Chongzhen sent him to appease Yang Bo for a very simple purpose, that is, through his personal friendship with Yang Bo, he tried to make Yang Bo accept the results of the rebellion of the regimental training camp, and prevent Yang Bo from any possible misdeeds. The imperial court also seems to understand that the critical moment should not overstimulate the Lushun army and the people, this time the holy decree on the Lushun generals were rewarded, Yang Bo was named the chief soldier of Lushun Town, stationed in Lushun, plus the prince Shaobao, the governor of the left army Governor Mansion Tongzhi, the first award of Ronglu Doctor, Yin a son hereditary brocade clothes thousand households, the gift of three generations are a product, plus the "Zhennan General" seal, give the department its military name Hussar Army, the original guerrilla battalion is named Hussar Battalion, the rest of the meritorious people, etc., all merit awards......

In all fairness, the imperial court reward must be rich, Yang Bo as a Lushun general directly promoted to the general army of the town, it is already shocking, the scattered rank is directly promoted to the Ronglu doctor, hanging the seal of the general of Zhennan, has reached the peak of the general, not to mention the crown prince Shaobao, the status has been on par with Zu Dashou, in case this time can repel the siege of the Jiannu Eight Banners, the court can only be crowned the marquis and the king if it rises again, at that time, what should the court do?

Yan Kun's heart is like a mess, the court's lavish reward did not let Lushun's grievances disappear at all, from this point alone, Emperor Chongzhen's political wisdom is very worrying, Yan Kunzhi once asked to severely punish the backer behind Ni Pet, the deputy general of the Beijing camp, even if Emperor Chongzhen pushes a scapegoat, and then rehabilitates the regimental training camp, and there is no need to reward Yang Bo in a big way, nor do you have to endure Yang Bo's price of sitting on the ground, a small move bought the hearts of Lushun people, why not? It's a pity that His Majesty deeply hated the heavy losses of the Beijing camp, and even more so the dignity of the court and himself, he refused to admit his mistake to death, and turned a rebellion that could have been easily resolved into a defeat for both sides.

The recent movements of the imperial court have made Yan Kunzhi vigilant, Wen Tiren has been sick for more than ten days, and Emperor Chongzhen's attitude is very intriguing, but he made two painless wills, and sent an imperial doctor to visit, and then everything was as usual, as if he acquiesced.

Obviously, Emperor Chongzhen has been deeply jealous of Wen Tiren, and his future future is also worrying, Yang Bo had warned Wen Tiren back then, don't spread the war against Donglin to the eunuchs, Wen Tiren did this, climbed the first auxiliary throne and the ministers after a honeymoon period, but since the Donglin Party through Sun Chengzong's son and Cao Huachun got into a relationship, the situation began to become unfavorable, Cao Huachun was originally the confidant of the great eunuch Wang An, and Wang An is a person from Donglin, it is through this relationship, The strength of the Donglin Party in the court has increased greatly, Wen Tiren has been invisibly defused several times to Zhejiang Donglin, not only that, Wen Tiren also made Emperor Chongzhen more and more disgusted, the Donglin Party collected evidence of Wen Tiren's party affiliation and private interests through the ministers directly to the hands of Emperor Chongzhen, and the involvement between Yang Bo in Lushun especially made Emperor Chongzhen vigilant, the image of Wen Tiren and lonely in the heart of Emperor Chongzhen has been bankrupt, Emperor Chongzhen was disappointed, more trust and reliance on the ministers, after the rebellion in Changping, he sent more than ten eunuchs, or supervising the army, or guarding. In fact, it was a manifestation of distrust of the Manchu civil and military ministers.

Just as everyone was pondering, several guards ran in quickly, and one of them walked up to Yang Bo's side and whispered a few words. He handed over a few more letters.

"Idle, but the war is repeated?" Seeing Yang Bo frowning, Yang Wenyue hurriedly asked, what they are most concerned about at the moment is how Lushun is fighting against Jiannu, which is related to the political stance they will take.

Yang Bo looked up at everyone present, smiled and said, "Adults can take a look for yourself, right?" The military situation is like fire, and Yang lacks skills. Adults, please take care of yourself."

After speaking, Yang Bo confessed to everyone and left in a hurry with a few guards. Only everyone was left looking at each other, and they couldn't care about the indignation Yang Bo s arrogance, and what the court was most worried about happened, because they had it in their hands. It was the persuasion that Huang Taiji shot into Mopan City......

Three days later. Yang Bo, who was in the dust, finally arrived at Mopan City and learned that the Tarnus outside the city did not attack the city with all their might, which made Yang Bo breathe a sigh of relief.

"The Nu Chief has been waiting for his brother's reply, saying that he will give me three days to think about it" Tie Niu accompanied Yang Bo to inspect the city defense, and said in a low voice.

Yang Bo nodded and said lightly: "I know, let's discuss this matter again." ”

That night, Yang Bo summoned the Intelligence Department. The General Staff Division and the Battalion Commanders' Meeting ......

"Is it possible to lure Huang Taiji into the range of a rifled gun and shoot him?" Yang Bo asked bluntly.

Liu Bingwen of the Intelligence Department pinched Huang Taiji's letter of surrender, looked at it and shook his head and said, "Although the Slave Chief pretended to be heroic in his tone in the letter. But the villain thought it was unlikely, the special forces sniper company had made countless contributions during this time, killing many Tatar low-level generals, and the range of the rifle gun was already well known to the other party, and the slave chief would never be fooled. ”

Yang Bo snorted and said, "Then forget it, by the way, where is Tang Baocheng from the Foreign Affairs Department?" ”

Liu Bingwen hurriedly replied: "It's almost time to Tianjin." ”

Yang Bo asked again: "Is Zong Yuanfang still stranded in Tianjin?" ”

Liu Bingwen shook his head: "The imperial army besieged Changping very urgently, but there were heavy casualties under the counterattack of the regimental training camp. After Zong Yuanfang learned of the plan, he had already used the excuse of contracting a vicious illness to hold on to his illness, but the imperial court issued several holy decrees and was ready to send a royal doctor to visit, and Zong Yuan did not dare to delay any longer. ”

Yang Bo's fingers unconsciously tapped on the table, and his mind was still imagining various possibilities.

Wang Xiaoyu broke the silence and said: "My lord, according to the deduction of the General Staff Department, the situation of the regimental training camp is not optimistic, mainly because the equipment and logistics cannot keep up, and without the deterrence of firearms, the losses will increase a lot under the siege of the imperial court." ”

Cui Yong, the chief instructor of the Thunder Division, shook his head and said: "The second battalion Wu Zhongcun has always been steady, in the battle of Iron Mountain, he led Team B to behead more than 30 levels, including 16 levels of foot armor, and the casualties of Team B were only three people, and he was promoted to the position of battalion commander by virtue of this merit, and the instructor of the second battalion, Bai Siwen, was also full of resourcefulness, and the two cooperated seamlessly, as long as the imperial court did not adjust Xuanda, the strong army in the Jiliao area was encircled and suppressed, and the regimental training battalion was under their leadership, and there should be no problem in sticking to Changping. ”

Wang Xiaoyu sighed and said: "Having said that, how long can you hold on to Changping's grain storage without being caught off guard, and besides, winter is coming, and the regimental training camp lacks food and clothing, how can you persevere?" At that time, Dalinghe had a lot of grain in stock, but he ignored the inconspicuous firewood reserves, which caused the soldiers to freeze to death and frostbite countless times, and their morale was greatly lost. ”

Liu Bingwen shook his head and said: "The Department of Foreign Affairs has formulated corresponding countermeasures, with Tang Baocheng presiding over the overall situation, these problems are not big, but now that the army outside Changping City is gathered, and there is no communication between inside and outside, this is the biggest headache." ”

Yang Bo said: "Let the special service team end their rest and recuperate, find a way to infiltrate Changping City to contact them, no matter how difficult the regimental training camp is, you must firmly nail me in Changping, tell them that the longer they hold out, the more beneficial the situation in the entire Liaodong, the two factions of the imperial court are fighting endlessly, Wen Tiren is scheming, but he is only secretly accumulating, that is to say, the regimental training camp will not only not get our assistance, nor will it be treated fairly by the imperial court, they can only rely on themselves, if they win, Wen Tiren will make a move, if they are defeated, they can't count on anyone." ”

Li Dali scolded angrily: "Let's desperately resist the Tartar slaves here, the emperor Lao'er is not counted as a black hand behind his back, these adults in the court are full of benevolence and morality, and they are all thinking about how to use the chaos to make profits for themselves, if those heroic souls who died on the battlefield have spirits underground, I am afraid that they will die without turning a blind eye."

Everyone was already indignant after learning about the encounter in the regimental training camp, and it was only in the past few days that they gradually calmed down, and it was even more difficult to hear Li Dali's words, so they got up and scolded non-stop.

"My lord, do you want to reply to the letter of the slave chief?" Liu Bingwen asked Yang Bo in a low voice

Yang Bo woke up from his contemplation, thought for a while and then smiled: "What is there to reply?" We are the henchmen of Houjin, and Huang Taiji can be regarded as a generation of heroes, do you really think he wants to lure us down? He just wants to shake the morale of our army, and on the other hand, let the Jingshi's fine work trumpet that he is discussing the surrender with us, so that the court can deepen its suspicion and prevention of us. ”

Yang Bo's words silenced everyone, Lushun is currently in the imperial court and the Tarnu inside and outside, and life is indeed not easy.

"Huang Taiji has suffered losses, and he knows our attitude towards Houjin, of course, we also know that our Lushun soldiers and civilians would rather die than surrender to the Tatars, but the court doesn't know? Therefore, now is a good opportunity to bargain with the imperial court, I have already passed on the news through several imperial histories, but I am afraid that this news will make our Emperor Chongzhen even more headaches."

Just as they were discussing, Hu Mazi, who was in charge of patrolling the city at night, ran in and said, "My lord, the time for the slave chieftain's reply has passed, and it seems that the Tartars are preparing to attack the city overnight......" (To be continued......
