Chapter 336: Trilateral Governor

Zhang Zhang is very clear, in history, Jiannu is Chongzhen's seventh year from Xuanfu to the hinterland of Kou Daming...... Now it seems that the time is probably going to be brought forward.

"Tuanshan Fort is not dangerous, and Jiannu will not fight Liaodong." Zhang Zhang said such a sentence lightly, which immediately shocked Gao Yuanliang inexplicably.

Generally speaking, Jiannu fought the Ming Dynasty, that is, fought Liaodong. In these years, there have been wars in Liaodong every year......

"My lord, are you saying that Jiannu will follow Chongzhen's example for two years, make a detour to Duoyanwei, and enter the palace from Xuanfu?"

"Exactly!"

After Gao Yuanliang pondered for a moment, his expression gradually became clearer: "My lord, how should our Tuanshan army deal with it?" ”

Zhang Zhang didn't think about it, and said: "The country has no way, what does it have to do with the people?!" ”

Gao Yuanliang was taken aback, what my lord meant by this - the court is rotten, but the people are innocent!

In other words, adults want to save the people of the Ming Dynasty?!

As soon as Gao Yuanliang raised his head, he saw the tension with a firm expression, and his heart began to get excited-Tuanshan Army is about to fight a big battle!

……

Lu Xiangsheng originally soared into the sky in the sixth year of Chongzhen in history, because of his meritorious service in "suppressing thieves", he was promoted to the right deputy capital of Yushi, the prime minister of Hebei, Henan, Shandong, Huguang, and Sichuan military affairs, and the governor of Huguang.

The area he was in charge of was known as the "Five Provinces in the Southeast," and the "Five Provinces in the Northwest" in charge of the trilateral governor Hong Chengchou in history became two large nets encircling the peasant army.

In fact, Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou are both talents, although Hong Chengchou's character is inferior, he has to admit that he is also a person who knows the soldiers.

Therefore, when Chongzhen was six or seven years old, the peasant army had a very hard time, but it was a pity that

Tension comes through. The wheels of history have changed dramatically.

Zhang Zhang never expected that he would "yin" a handful of ancestors in order to be reinstated. As a result, Chongzhen was very worried about Zu Dashou's "collaboration with the enemy", and transferred the trilateral governor Hong Chengchou to the governor of Jiliao.

Vacant trilateral governorship. Chongzhen asked Lu Xiangsheng to take over. Whether it is the governor of the "five southeastern provinces" or the control of the "five northwest provinces", Lu Xiangsheng is already equivalent to the commander-in-chief of the later military region.

From the martial law of Beijing in the second year of Chongzhen, Lu Xiangsheng raised more than 10,000 people from the prefect of the Daimyo Qinwang, and now in just four years, he is simply swishing up like a rocket in the officialdom, which has become a rare special case in the Chongzhen Dynasty.

Lu Xiangsheng does not pay bribes, does not form a party, and does not make sycophants -- what he relies on. It's your own talent and effort.

In this dark era, neither Zhou Yanru nor Wen Tiren dared to make the slightest noise about Lu Xiangsheng's "green clouds going up"-

Because people rely on military exploits!

Heaven seems to be particularly fond of Lu Xiangsheng, not only giving him a rather handsome appearance, but also giving him the ability to "be both civil and military" - among all the civil officials in the Chongzhen Dynasty who were "born in the two rankings" by reading and taking exams, he was the only one with martial arts.

Lu Xiangsheng personally went to the battlefield, and these performances of taking the lead not only threw off the chief military officers of the Ming Dynasty. And he is especially famous for his kung fu in archery!

Lu Xiangsheng is a famous marksman, and on the battlefield several times, he personally drew a bow to shoot the enemy, and hit every shot. Strike fear into the hearts of the enemy.

Of course, the standard equipment of the Ming army was the arquebus, and the range and accuracy of the arquebus were not comparable to the bow and arrow at all. The reason for the large-scale armament of the Ming army. It's not that it's technologically advanced, it's that it's impossible to train a large number of qualified archers. So a large number of cheap musketeers shot together. It's still a lot better than not having a ranged weapon at all. In fact, the key factor that determined the war of the Ming and Qing dynasties was never firearms. It's the quality of the soldiers and the non-weapon factors behind it. The Ming army, which relied on the Hongyi cannon to defend the fortified city, only delayed the destruction for more than ten years.

However, Lu Xiangsheng's greatest talent is not only these horseback riding and archery skills, but also his strategy -- he is not just a civilian and military general, but a handsome talent.

At this moment, Lu Xiangsheng was in the residence of the Provisional Governor's Mansion in Zhangjiakou Fort of Xuanfu, quietly reading a letter.

Standing beside Lu Xiangsheng was his younger brother Lu Xiangjin.

At present, although Lu Xiangjin's position is only a small "counselor military affairs", his status in his brother Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army is quite high, one is that he is the younger brother of Lord Lu, and the other is that he is also very capable, but it is not all because of his brother's relationship.

Lu Xiangsheng read the letter carefully, handed it to his younger brother Lu Xiangjin with his backhand, and squinted his eyes slightly and began to think.

Lu Xiangjin took the letter and looked at it, it turned out that the letter was written by Master Zhang of Liaodong Patrol, and the letter only said one thing-

There is an abnormality on Jiannu's side, and I am afraid that he will make a detour to Duoyanwei in the near future and enter the hinterland of Kou Daming from Xuanfu!

After reading the letter, Lu Xiangjin looked puzzled, and said to Lu Xiangsheng: "Big brother, why didn't Zhang Xunji report to the imperial court, but wrote to you privately?" ”

Lu Xiangsheng sighed slightly, closed his eyes and did not answer.

Yes, Zu Dashou reported to the imperial court every year that "there was a change in the construction of slaves", and he needed to strengthen his precautions - in the final analysis, it was just reaching out for money and food.

Now if Zhang Zhang reports this matter to the imperial court, I am afraid that it will be like "the wolf is coming", no one will believe it, but he will have a bad reputation for "fabricating facts and greedy for food and salary".

Lu Xiangjin looked at the eldest brother's silent appearance, and it was only for a moment that he understood the truth.

"Xiang Jin, I once had a relationship with Master Zhang, he has the world in mind and is an outstanding person. If other people say that Jiannu has moved, I will just be skeptical. But Master Zhang said that Jiannu wanted to commit a crime, so it must be. ”

Lu Xiangjin's brows furrowed tightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Big brother, originally you were the new governor of the three sides, and your residence was in Yansui. You've been delaying in Xuanfu for a long time, why don't we go to Yansui to take office? ”

Lu Xiangjin is right, after all, Xuanfu is the territory of Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Xuanda. Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army was stationed here and belonged to the guest army, which was quite unjustifiable.

Originally, after Gao Yingxiang was defeated, Lu Xiangsheng was already going to move to Yansui. However, Chongzhen was afraid that Gao Yingxiang would kill the horse gun and "wander" to Beijing, so he kept asking him to help Zhang Zongheng in Zhangjiakou to help defend Xuanfu.

That is to say, some people in the court were jealous that Lu Xiang's promotion was too fast, but Lu Xiang's promotion was based on his military exploits, and it was difficult to say anything. Now that Lu Xiang has been promoted to the governor of the three sides, it is absolutely impossible for the governor of Xuanda to let Lu Xiangsheng take on the same position.

There is a saying that "three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver", if the official reaches the level of governor, it is naturally "March Governor Lian, millions of snowflakes of silver"......

Lu Xiangsheng is not greedy for ink, so his superiors and subordinates don't like him - in the eyes of the "princes of the imperial court", Lu Xiangsheng is like a "rat", and he spoiled a pot of soup! (To be continued.) )
