Chapter 424: Understanding People

When the generals heard Hong Chengchou talk about his exploits, they couldn't help but stretch their necks, and they all showed expectant looks. In the previous battles with the Han Army Banner, to put it bluntly, it was a firearm bombardment, and the casualties on both sides were very large, but the Jiliao Army did not get much head at all.

Kong Youde was born in the Ming Army, and he was very clear about the first level of the Ming Dynasty, so although he was cannon fodder, he didn't want Hong Chengchou to take advantage of them, and the corpses of all the fallen soldiers were transported away and cremated, and the corpses were burned to ashes.

In this regard, Hong Chengchou, Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui all hated it, but there was nothing they could do, after all, the Jiliao army relied on the trench defense, and it was impossible to go out to counterattack.

Now that the Tartars have withdrawn, maybe the opportunity will come......

was only silent for a short time of incense, and all the generals present also figured it out. Jiannu is invincible in the field, needless to say, don't even think about it; Kong Youde and other Han army banners marched and arranged in a methodical manner, and the field battle against the Jiliao army may still have a lot of advantages; Only the Mongolian two Tatars are greedy for money and good goods, and the things they plundered before were taken away by Zhang Li, and some have been added recently, but they definitely can't satisfy their greed!

This is the opportunity!

Hong Chengchou glanced at the generals, and said in a deep voice: "Although the head of the Northern Captives is not as good as the Eastern Captives, it is more valuable than the heads of the Han Army Banner, let's try to destroy a Northern Captives this time - well, the number of the Northern Captives tribe is about 3,000 people!" ”

The whole army of 80,000 people of the Jiliao army ran to destroy the Mongolian two Tatar tribes of 3,000 people, and everyone was not surprised, but their faces were solemn, and they seemed to be quite worried about whether they could eat their opponents......

Hong Chengchou took in everyone's hesitation, and said lightly: "The generals don't need to worry too much, let's send scouts to investigate the whereabouts of the Mongolian two Tartars." Be sure to fight with certainty! ”

"Obey the orders of the Governor!" The generals agreed in unison, and soon they came out of the official hall. They all returned to the camp to arrange the arrangement.

……

Just when Liaodong and Jingshi were in a mess, one side of the force finally couldn't bear the loneliness. Start tossing and turning.

"King Chuang" Gao Yingxiang broke through the encirclement and interception of Sun Chuanting, the chief military officer of Shaanxi to suppress thieves, and after jumping out of the blockade, he went straight to Hubei to kill.

After all, Zuo Liangyu, the chief soldier of Henan, did not block the "Eight Kings" Zhang Xianzhong, and the latter's army of more than 100,000 troops also flowed into the boundary of Shandong. The Ming Dynasty had no troops to resist in Shandong, and for a time it lost ground again and again, and Zhang Xianzhong's troops even went straight to the city of Jinan!

Jingshi blew up again, and it was not long ago that the Tartar army withdrew from Shunyi, and now it is heading for Xuanfu. This Nima tartar is not out of the plug yet. The thieves are making a fuss again? In the eyes of many well-intentioned people, the Ming Dynasty is really revealing the appearance of the lost country everywhere!

In Emperor Chongzhen's deep-rooted thinking, whether it is a slave or a captive, they are just robbers who burn and loot. This time, although there were some twists and turns in the middle, it was always the same as before, they grabbed enough and left......

But thieves are different. These people are Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, Zhang Jiao, and Huang Chao, and they rebelled to change the dynasty!

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen was extremely nervous. For many days, the morning court was discussing how to deal with the thieves. After many days of discussion, Emperor Chongzhen had to call Wen Tiren, the head of the cabinet, to the imperial study, hoping that he would come up with an idea.

At the moment in the imperial study. Wen Tiren still stood bent down, looking at his nose and nose. Maintain the grace of his cabinet chief.

And Emperor Chongzhen, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was watching a letter with bated breath, this was Wu Sangui, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, and Wu Gonggong. Ah, no, General Wu went to the army, and the content was to ask to lead troops to Shandong to suppress thieves.

Wen Tiren naturally had already seen this recital, and he also gave instructions on the word "can", and now it is forwarded to the emperor, it depends on how he decides.

Wu Sangui's thoughts, how could Wen Tiren not know?

In the Ji Liao Army, Hong Chengchou and Zu Dashou's official positions, resumes, and other identities crushed Wu Sangui, he didn't want to continue to mix with the Ji Liao Army, but wanted to stand on his own!

Among the first-level military exploits of the Ming Dynasty, the first is the eastern captive, the second is the northern captive, and the second is the Han military flag, and the last class is the thief. It can be said that even if you kill tens of thousands of thieves, you won't be able to earn much military merit.

The reason is naturally understood by everyone - the thieves are actually nothing more than the people of the Ming Dynasty, and the generals cut off the heads of the people, saying that he is a thief, and he is a thief...... This kind of thing happens again and again, and it is the so-called killing of good and risky merit.

Therefore, unless the leaders of the thieves are caught, such as Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, Li Zicheng and others, they will have the capital to speak. Otherwise, no matter how many heads you take, the devil knows if you killed the people?

Hong Chengchou and Zu Dashou were reluctant to go to Shandong, and they were thinking about the head of the northern captives, so Wu Sangui stood up and asked to go to Shandong to quell the rebellion.

Wen Tiren snorted coldly, and secretly said that Wu Sangui is also an understanding person, and knows that he can only drink soup with Hong Chengchou, Zu Dashou and others, so he wants to go out to eat meat by himself......

Emperor Chongzhen finished reading the recital, and his tense nerves relaxed slightly. He glanced at Wen Tiren and asked, "Wen Aiqing, Wu Sangui went to Shandong to quell the rebellion, Aiqing thinks it is feasible?" ”

What kind of person is Wen Tiren? Immediately caught the unfavorable message in this sentence - Nima, what do you think is feasible? If Wu Sangui loses the battle, the basin will be deducted from himself!

How could a person who is as old and cunning as Lord Wen leave such a flaw?

Wen Tiren looked solemn and replied loudly: "My Emperor Shengming! The minister is not very good at military affairs, and he does not dare to speak falsely. However, His Majesty had previously called Wu Sangui Wu General Soldier the dragon in the army, and then awarded him the post of General Soldier of Shanhaiguan...... Tsk, Your Majesty is really a wise man! When General Wu goes to Shandong this time, he will definitely repay His Majesty's great kindness! ”

Wen Tiren said lightly, and immediately said that his consent was "the emperor's consent", and successfully threw off the "pot" - in the future, Wu Sangui will naturally have merit in winning the battle, if he loses the battle, then no one will dare to let out a fart, is it up to the emperor to decide!

"Hmm-Aiqing is right!" Emperor Chongzhen's pale face seemed to have regained a trace of blood, everyone loves to listen to beautiful words, Wen Tiren's praise really made him feel refreshed.

Wen Tiren shut up very skillfully, waiting for the emperor to continue. Sure enough, after Emperor Chongzhen coughed, he made a decision: "I will follow the invitation of General Wu, and Wu Sangui will immediately lead troops to Shandong to quell the rebellion!" ”

Wen Tiren replied painlessly: "Long live Lord Wise!" (To be continued.) )
