Chapter 744: Two Brief Words

"General Zu!"

A group of officials, including Sun Ge Lao, surrounded Zu Dashou the moment he landed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Ahem!" Zu Dashou's face turned blue, and he kept coughing lightly, and with each cough, the blood spilled from the corner of his mouth increased. Sun Ge was panicked, and hurriedly raised his head and shouted, "Someone! Hurry up and help General Zu in! Call the doctor! ā€

Xu Liang stood back among Dai Feng and the Liang soldiers, and watched coldly as the civil and military officers of the Liaodong Department hurriedly carried Zu Dashou into the Governor's Palace.

Sun Ge Lao only had the strength to look at Xu Liang at this time, and seeing Xu Liang standing calmly, he arched his hand from afar, and sneered: "Did Sun Ge Lao finally remember this official?" ā€

Sun Ge Lao's expression was complicated, some were shocked, some were puzzled, but more were annoyed. He looked at Xu Liang for a while before he said, "Since Lord Xu is here, let's go in together." ā€

Xu Liang sneered, "The eight guards of this official are inseparable from this official, and the Governor's Mansion is so tightly checked, I'm afraid I won't be able to get in, right?" ā€

Sun Ge's old face was bruised, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, "The old man let you in!" ā€

Xu Liang touched the tip of his nose, hehe sneered, turned his head and nodded at Dai Feng, and followed Sun Ge Lao into the Governor's Mansion, behind him, eight Tsing Yi guards followed closely! This time, the soldiers guarding the front of the governor's palace did not stop any longer.

The hall of the Governor's Mansion was already full of Liaodong civil and military, and when the officials saw Xu Liang, Dai Feng followed Sun Ge Boss and walked in, and Xu Liang was followed by eight guards with knives with cold faces, and they couldn't help but be taken aback, and they all looked at Xu Liang in surprise. Then someone in the know carefully told the people next to him about Xu Liang's defeat of Zu Dashou outside the governor's palace, and the officials looked at Xu Liang with shock and fear.

Xu Liang walked to the first vacant seat on the left and sat down, Dai Feng sat diagonally opposite, and eight guards stood behind the two like javelins, their sharp eyes guarding the surroundings.

Sun Ge's old face sank like water, sitting behind the big case, stroking his forehead with his hand, as if he was thinking about something. The Liaodong civil and military forces below talked cautiously.

Xu Liang's side is also a red-robed official. The man accompanied Xu Liang with a smile and arched his hand, "The senior engineer of the Xiaguan Ningyuan Prefect has seen the governor. ā€

Xu Liang turned his head and saw a face full of smiles. Xu Liang nodded lightly, "The Kochi Mansion doesn't need to be polite. Seeing this, the Kochi Mansion smiled more and more cordially, approached Xu Liang, and said with a smile: "The governor is new to Liaodong, and most of the adults here are not very familiar with it, right?" Xia Guan Xi is the prefect of Ningyuan, and how about letting Xia Guan introduce the governor to him? ā€

Well? Xu Liang was slightly surprised, but he didn't know much about these Liaodong officials originally, and the Kochi Mansion was in the middle of it, so there was a slight smile on his face, and he nodded towards the Kochi Mansion and said, "There is the Lao Koprefect Mansion." ā€

The Kochi Mansion was deeply encouraged, so he carefully introduced to Xu Liang the civil and military officials of Liaodong present.

Sun Ge Lao's eyes drifted towards Xu Liang, glanced at the Kochi Mansion, frowned slightly, and then quickly skimmed over.

After another cup of tea, the chatter of the adults in the hall was a little louder.

Gao Zhifu's eyes lowered, and he whispered: "The long-bearded old general who is two seats away from General Dai, Lord Xu must not underestimate him, he is the commander of the Dongjiang Water Division, Huanglong!" When Yuan supervised the prime minister of Liaodong, he once said that there were two hidden worries about the Dongjiang River, one was Mao Wenlong, and the other was Huanglong, the commander of the navy. After Inspector Yuan chopped Mao Wenlong with a knife, under the pressure of the court, he never found a chance to move Huanglong, which allowed Huanglong to escape......"

Xu Liang heard the Kochifu introduce Huanglong so solemnly, and couldn't help but look at it twice. I saw that Huang Long, the commander of the Dongjiang Water Division, was about fifty years old, with a long beard and fluttering, quite a bit of Guan Gong's demeanor, but his face was gloomy, not smiling, and the officials next to him were talking quietly with the officials who were familiar with him, only this Huang Long was sitting there like an old monk in his meditation, looking at his nose and nose and heart.

The Kozhi Mansion was about to elaborate further, when they suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, and the officials looked up, and saw three Liaodong generals striding in, each finding a place and sitting down. Xu Liang recognized three people, He Kegang, Wu Xiang, and Wu Sangui.

Immediately, a resentful gaze fell on Xu Liang, Xu Liang looked up, and saw Wu Sangui staring at him viciously, and when he saw Xu Liang looking over, Wu Sangui withdrew his gaze.

Elder Sun Ge raised his head and asked Wu Xiangdao, "General Wu, there is nothing wrong with General Zu's health, right?" ā€

Wu Xiang's face was gloomy, and he bowed his hand to Sun Ge Lao, and said in a deep voice: "The doctor has seen it, there should be no major problems, but he has to recuperate for a few days." ā€

"Well, that's fine." Elder Sun Ge breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Xu Liang intentionally or unintentionally, coughed lightly, and said, "Since everyone has arrived, let's start the meeting." ā€

"In the fourth year of Zheng Chongzhen, the Qing soldiers besieged my Dalinghe Fort for two months, causing my Dalinghe Fort to almost fall into the hands of the enemy, and the Dalinghe Fort that had been built with great difficulty was almost abandoned. Today, the old man gathered everyone together to discuss the rebuilding of Dalinghe Fort! ā€

Xu Liang listened and thought in his heart. Sun Ge Lao said that the Dalinghe Fort is located in the north of Jinzhou, if it is established, it is a barrier of Jinzhou, and Jinzhou and Songshan take care of each other, which can greatly restrain the invasion of Qing soldiers. As early as the fourth year of Chongzhen, Qiu Hejia, the governor of Liaodong, asked to build a city on the Daling River to consolidate the defense of Jinzhou, and the person responsible for building the city at that time was the chief soldier Zu Dashou, but the city was halfway through, the Qing soldiers heard the wind and came, and fought for nearly half a year, the Qing soldiers retreated, and the Dalinghe Fort project was stranded.

Now that Sun Ge has brought up the old things again, it obviously has the meaning of restoring Dalinghe Fort.

After Sun Ge Lao finished speaking, when everyone made suggestions, many of the Liaodong civil and military forces present agreed with it. However, these things were originally controlled by Sun Gelao, Xu Liang just came, and he didn't want to develop on the Guanning defense line, so he became more and more interested in interfering.

Chief soldier Dai Feng's opinion was mainly Xu Liang's, and seeing Xu Liang's lack of interest, he simply kept silent.

Sun Ge Lao listened to the opinions of all the Liaodong civil and military officials, although most of them agreed, but he frowned slightly, because Sun Ge Lao also found out that Xu Liang, the governor of Liaodong, had not spoken.

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, Sun Ge suppressed his hand and said, "Okay, since you are all in favor of rebuilding the Daling River, then this matter will be settled." Now let's talk about the personnel and troops responsible for the restoration of the Dalinghe Fort. When Chongzhen was four years old, it was Zu Dashou and He Kegang who built the city in the Daling River, and this year's rebuilding work, the governor decided not to bother the two masters, and still the Zu General and General He were in charge...... Of course, General Zu was temporarily absent from the meeting, and the old man would explain it to General Zu after the meeting. Well, General He Kegang, what is your problem? ā€

He Kegang pondered for a while, glanced at Xu Liang with ill will, and then arched his hand towards Sun Ge Lao and said, "Your Excellency the Governor has arranged what the last general will do, and the last general will definitely go all out." However, the project of rebuilding Dalinghe Fort is huge, and there are many manpower and material resources required, and the soldiers and horses wielded by the last general and General Zu must not only undertake the defense along Jinzhou, but also draw troops to build the city. Moreover, with the lessons of Chongzhen's four years, the last general thought that the rebuilding of the Daling River should be done as quickly as possible, and the restoration of the Daling River should be completed before Huang Taiji reacted. ā€

Elder Sun Ge nodded slowly when he heard this, and he strongly agreed.

The Liaodong officials below also nodded, obviously agreeing with He Kegang's words.

"It's just...... In this case, it is necessary to ask the Governor to coordinate more troops into the Daling River project. He Kegang said, glanced at Xu Liang and Dai Feng as he spoke, the corners of his mouth twitched, and said: "According to the last general's understanding, although my Liaodong Army has more than 100,000 people, it is divided among the various important areas of the Guanning defense line, and it is easy to use it. The last general heard that the governor brought General Dai Feng, the general of Tongzhou, and 30,000 soldiers and horses to Liaodong, and now he is stationed on Juehua Island in the east of Ningyuan City. The last general was willing to ask the governor to send 25,000 Tongzhou soldiers to the Daling River to help build the city! ā€

He Kegang finally revealed his goal, which was to transfer 25,000 soldiers and horses from Xu Liang's hands!!

As soon as Dai Feng heard this, his face became ugly, and he glared at He Kegang with a gloomy face.

The matter involved the new governor of Liaodong, Xu Liang, and the officials below had just heard that Xu Liang had defeated Zu Dashou in public, so they all restrained their smiles and stared at Xu Liang and Dai Feng in unison.

Elder Sun Ge looked at Dai Feng and asked, "General Dai, what are your different opinions on General He's proposal?" ā€

Dai Feng glanced at Xu Liang and said bluntly: "General Ben obeys the arrangement of Xu Liang, the governor of Liaodong. ā€

Hiss! Many officials gasped in surprise, Dai Feng's words were too direct, in front of the cabinet minister, Sun Chengzong, the governor of Jiliao, he actually said bluntly, obey the arrangement of Governor Xu Liang!

It was the governor Xu Liang, not the governor Sun Chengzong!

Elder Sun Ge frowned, then stroked his beard and chuckled: "Your Excellency the Governor has always put state affairs first, taking into account the overall situation, and will definitely support this proposal very much." General Dai, you can rest assured. ā€

Dai Feng raised his eyebrows, "General Ben is more realistic, I want to be personally assigned by Xu Liang." ā€

Hiss! Hiss! This time, there are even more adults gasping. The Liaodong officials looked at Dai Feng in shock, they originally thought that Xu Liang, as the governor of Liaodong, would fight Zu Dashou in public, and it was arrogant enough to beat Zu Dashou down, but they didn't expect that even the people he brought were so straightforward and direct, and they didn't give face to the dignified Jiliao Governor at all!

Sun Ge Lao's face sank, and then he looked at Xu Liang, the muscles on his face seemed to smile, and asked, "Then ...... Lord Xu, can you just say a few words? ā€

Xu Liang raised his head, glanced at Sun Ge Lao meaningfully, then straightened his official robe, glanced at a circle of officials present, drew a sneering arc at the corner of his mouth, and said loudly: "Since the governor wants the official to say two words, then I will simply say two words: I don't agree with the matter of transferring Dai Feng's men and horses to build Dalinghe Fort!" ā€

The tone is resolute and unquestionable.

The Liaodong civil and military officers looked at Xu Liang with a stunned expression, and even Huang Long, the commander of the Dongjiang Naval Division, who had always been indifferent, raised his head in surprise and looked at Xu Liang with interest.

He Kegang, Wu Xiang, Wu Sangui and others glared at Xu Liang in shock and anger. The senior engineer of the Ningyuan prefect next to him felt the hostility in the eyes of the officials in the hall, and couldn't help but quietly move his chair away from Xu Liang as far away as possible. He regretted it a little, and he had just deliberately offered his hospitality to Xu Liang!

He Kegang's face turned red, glared at Xu Liang, and shouted in a deep voice: "Lord Governor, the matter of rebuilding Dalinghe Fort is the proposal of Lord Governor!" ā€

Sun Ge's face sank, and he turned his face to stare at Xu Liang, "Xu Liang? You give the old man a reason! ā€

Xu Liang looked at He Kegang with a sneering face, and sneered: "General He has a good calculation!" Gently moving his mouth, he wants my 25,000 Liang soldiers to go and die for you! Hehe, you and I are not related, why should this official give you such a big face! Dalinghe Fort, if you want to rebuild, then just go ahead and build it! As for wanting to transfer my Liang soldiers, don't even think about it! ā€

"You!!" He Kegang trembled lightly with anger, clenched his fists, and glared at Xu Liang viciously.

"The Governor is so majestic!" A young voice sneered, Wu Sangui spoke, he stared at Xu Liang, and mocked: "Didn't you forget that Liaodong is not the governor alone, there is a governor above." It seems that the governor is so dissatisfied with the dispatch and does not obey the orders, but he can't support the army and rebel?! ā€

Yes? Wu Sangui's tone was vicious, and when he opened his mouth, the big hat of supporting the army and rebelling knocked on Xu Liang's head. All the Liaodong civil and military officers looked at Xu Liang in horror.

Xu Liang sneered and said: "Wu Sangui is young, and his ability to lead troops to fight is commonplace, but his ability to indiscriminately charge people is impressive. The 30,000 Liang troops under the command of this official are more useful than being a mason to repair the city wall! ā€

"Huh?" Elder Sun Ge looked at Xu Liang suspiciously, and asked in a deep voice, "What does Lord Xu want to do with 30,000 Liang troops?" ā€

Xu Liang smiled lightly, pointed to the east, and arched his hand towards Sun Ge Lao: "This official is about to report to the governor, and this official has decided that in a month, the army will be sent to Jinzhou!" Based on Lushun, Nanguan and Jinzhou, unite the surrounding islands, advance to the north step by step, expel the Qing army, and recover the Liaodong Peninsula! ā€

Sun Ge Lao was shocked, Xu Liang's ambition was so big, he had just arrived in Liaodong for less than a month, and he wanted to recover the Liaodong Peninsula? Sun Ge Lao had not thought about recovering the Liaodong Peninsula first, but the Liaodong Peninsula was separated by a sea before the Guanning Defense Line, and the ability of the Dongjiang Naval Division was not enough to control the entire Weihai Sea. Not to mention the manpower and material resources spent on recovering the Liaodong Peninsula, even if it is successfully recovered, the city after the recovery will always send troops to garrison, right? This further dispersed the forces of Liaodong, and the Liaodong Peninsula and the Guanning defense line are still far away, if the Qing army wants to attack the Ming Dynasty, it can still directly attack the Guanning defense line, and from the Liaodong Peninsula to send reinforcements, the waterway will take five or six days, if you take the land route, you have to detour to the Sancha River, and when the reinforcements arrive, the daylily is cold!

Based on the above reasons, Sun Ge Lao extinguished the idea of recovering the Liaodong Peninsula in time, leaving only the Dongjiang Naval Division and the Dongjiang Army to fight guerrillas near the Liaodong Peninsula and harass the Qing army.

Now, Xu Liang actually said that he wanted to recover the Liaodong Peninsula? Where did he get the confidence?! (To be continued.) )
