Chapter 263: Conflict in the Barracks (2-in-1)

"Boom ......"

The words of this Han general were like a spark falling into an oil pot, completely detonating the originally oppressive atmosphere in the main hall.

"Your Majesty!"

Everyone turned their eyes to Chongzhen, and many people had a hint of panic on their faces. Although everyone knows that the Qing soldiers will come sooner or later, there are many people who bury their heads in the sand like ostriches, and they are constantly comforting themselves, maybe those savage Qing soldiers will retreat by themselves when they have grabbed enough things, and they can still go back to the old days when they went to the Qinglou and drank the same wine. But now this qiē was broken like a bubble floating in the air, and the Qing soldiers still came, and 100,000 vicious Qing soldiers rushed towards Gyeonggi.

"Your Majesty, please make an order quickly, and order Lu Xiangsheng to meet the enemy quickly, and Yue Yang, isn't he very powerful? Let him get rid of the Tartars! "The first person to speak out was none other than Tang Shiji, the imperial history of Zuodu, who was still arguing with Yang Sichang just now.

At this time, Tang Shiji had long since lost the momentum of forcing Chongzhen to give an order to deal with Yueyang just now, as early as when he heard that the Qing soldiers had arrived at the city of Gyeonggi, the blood on his face faded completely, and his legs began to tremble, and the hundreds of famous officials and imperial historians who were originally lying on the ground also looked at each other at this time, it seems that this time the Qing soldiers are going to play for real.

Seeing Tang Shiji's changing face, and the official behind him who suddenly lost his voice collectively, Yang Sichang felt tired in his heart, you said that these are all stupid people, just now you had to shout and kill at others, now you can use others, and you will immediately ask others to go into battle to die for you, if you are a fool, you will run stupidly to die.

Tang Shiji didn't give himself face just now, but Yang Sichang remembered it clearly, and now that the opportunity has come, if he doesn't get this field back, then he won't be Yang Sichang.

I saw him cough lightly and said, "Lord Tang, didn't you say that you wanted to arrest Yue Yang and bring him to Beijing?" The official thought that Tang Dacai was the most suitable candidate, so it was better for Tang Daren to take Tiqi and hurry out of the city to arrest Na Yueyang. ”

"How does this make ......"

Tang Shiji was shocked and angry. Although he had never seen the ferocity of a tartar, he had never eaten pork or seen a pig run. Take Tiqi to the camp outside the city to capture Yue Yang, are you sure you didn't drink too much? I'm afraid he'll go out vertically and come back sideways, right?

"Lord Yang, at the moment of the great enemy, you let this official personally go out of the city to arrest that Yue Yang, what do you mean?" Tang Shiji glared angrily at Yang Sichang.

"Haha......" Yang Sichang smiled, "Feelings, Lord Tang also knows that the enemy is current, do you shout from time to time to arrest Yue Yang to correct the law of the country?" Why don't you make trouble now? Since Lord Tang is unwilling to go, who among the other adults is willing to go? You...... You...... Or are you? ”

When Yang Sichang's finger pointed at someone, he couldn't help but take a step back and shake his head. Are you kidding. Brother is a pillar of the court who plays with his mouth, fighting, killing and killing is a rough thing to do, how can the body of a daughter be lightly suspected?

Seeing that none of the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were willing to go out of the city, Chongzhen was only full of bitterness in addition to the disdain on his face. This is his minister, this is the Ming minister who flaunts the words of the saint all day long, shouting to help the world and the people, these people have no use at all except intrigue and climb up on the shoulders of their colleagues. Looking at the more than 100 Yanguan Yushi who were kneeling in front of him, a poem couldn't help but spit out from Chongzhen's mouth.

"140,000 people took off their armor, but not one of them was a man!"

Silence, deathly silence in the hall, as soon as the poem came out. All the ministers in the hall bowed their heads, and the officials kneeling in the center of the hall were even more ashamed and wanted to go to the ground.

"That's it!"

Chongzhen sighed and waved his hand weakly. Wang Chengen, the great eunuch who was standing aside and waiting, hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and motioned to the officials kneeling in front of him to stand up quickly. Let's go back and forth from where we come from.

"What are you doing? Don't hurry back to work yet! Haven't you lost enough people? I don't know who whispered, and the officials who knelt on the ground stood up and retreated to their original positions as if they were amnesty. Tang Shiji saw his subordinates retreat as if they had lost a battle, and he felt that he was weak, and he slowly returned to the crowd.

I saw that the center of the main hall was calm again. Wen Tiren then stood up and bowed to Chongzhen and said: "Qi Xiyi, now that the Tartars have hit the city of Gyeonggi, it is out of place to discuss how to punish Yueyang, the most important thing for today's plan is how to retreat from the enemy, please show your Majesty!" ”

Listening to Wen Tiren's words, Yang Sichang pursed his lips with some disdain, this Wen Tiren is probably old and confused, and he actually said such foolish words, aren't you looking for a smoke?

Sure enough, Chongzhen's brows gradually furrowed, and he said unceremoniously: "Wen Aiqing, as the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty, and my right-hand man, the Tartars are still in the city, and the other courtiers should discuss and discuss the strategy of retreating from the enemy and report to me, please make a decision." How do you get me to think hard about how to retreat from the enemy? So what's the use of waiting? ”

At this time, Chongzhen was also really anxious, otherwise he would not have said such heavy words in front of Wen Tiren, the first assistant, in front of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs.

As soon as Chongzhen's words came out, Wen Tiren felt a burst of heat on his face. Get...... was despised, in order to make up for his image in the boss's heart, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the ministers and others are in the capital all day long, and they don't know anything about things outside the city. ”

Wen Tiren deserved to be the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, and gently lifted the ball to the feet of Lu Xiangsheng outside the city.

Chongzhen thought about it, and felt that it was very reasonable, after all, he stayed in the Jinluan Palace all day long, and he definitely didn't know as much about this kind of thing as people like Lu Xiangsheng who stayed on the front line, it seems that this kind of thing has to find professional talents.

Thinking of this, Chongzhen spoke: "Spread the decree...... Hurriedly sent someone to the camp to ask how Lu Xiangsheng was doing? By the way, tell him that he must fight well, if he can drive the Tartars out of the pass, it will be a great achievement! Also, the order goes down, presses the city gates, and sends additional soldiers to patrol day and night in case of accidents! ”

"Obey the will of my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

In the midst of a long cry, today's court meeting ended in a dramatic form, but the battle outside the city had just begun......

On the morning of June 21, the ninth year of Chongzhen

Just when the Ming Dynasty and the Manchu Dynasty were helpless against that group of uninvited robbers. Azig, the king of Doluo County, led the Manchu army led by Rao Yu Bel Abatai and Yanguli to Liangxiang and set up camp ten miles away from the Ming army camp. Although the army has not yet started a battle, the small groups of cavalry on both sides have tested each other countless times, and both sides have suffered damage, and Lu Xiangsheng urgently convened the generals to discuss the matter in the big tent.

In the big tent, Lu Xiangsheng sat on the first place, looked at the generals below with blazing eyes, and said loudly, "Everyone! As the saying goes, it takes a thousand days to raise soldiers, and now is the time for the court to use us. Now that the thieves are still in the city, all the kings should fight bravely to kill the enemy to repay the king's kindness, do you understand? ”

Everyone agreed in unison: "I will obey the orders of the governor's army, and we will fight bravely to kill the enemy to repay the king's kindness!" ”

Looking at everyone's energetic appearance, Lu Xiangsheng nodded secretly, since Yueyang got a large amount of silver taels and grain and grass from the capital yesterday, Lu Xiangsheng immediately allocated it to the various ministries, and the officers and soldiers of the various departments who got the grain and silver taels were all demoralized, and the generals of the various departments were naturally refreshed. At this time, everyone looked at Lu Xiangsheng and waited for him to give an order.

Seeing that the military heart was available, Lu Xiangsheng was about to speak, but the voice of the guards came from outside the tent.

"Enlighten the Governor. An angel arrives with a holy decree, and the governor is invited to come out of the tent to greet him! ”

Lu Xiangsheng and the generals couldn't help but be shocked and stood up one after another. Lu Xiangsheng also tidied up his clothes and took the generals out of the big tent. Before they had left the camp, they saw a white-faced, beardless eunuch in his forties, looking at the sky with his nostrils turned upward. Behind him stood three or four brocade guards, dressed in flying fish suits and wearing embroidered spring knives at their waists. There were also more than a dozen Jingying soldiers accompanied by horses, all of them were fully armored, wearing bright red cloaks, and they looked very good-looking.

Lu Xiangsheng led the generals to the eunuch, bowed down and bowed: "Lu Xiangsheng greets the angels, it's been hard all the way, how about inviting the angels to rest in the tent?" ”

Hearing Lu Xiangsheng's words, the eunuch put away his posture of looking up at the sky and the moon, looked at Lu Xiangsheng, and said in a sharp voice: "Excuse me...... Our family is here to announce the decree according to the emperor's will, not to rest, let's get down to business first. ”

"Huh...... Who is this damn eunuch, his tone is so impulsive!" Yue Yang's brows furrowed when he heard this, but Lu Xiangsheng, who was the person concerned, still said respectfully as if he didn't have the slightest anger: "What the angel said is, then ask the angel to announce the decree!" ”

The eunuch shouted again: "Lu Xiangsheng takes the order!" ”

Because he was in the army, there was no condition to put any incense offerings, headed by Lu Xiangsheng, everyone knelt down to receive the order, and all the soldiers in the camp also knelt down on one knee, and a neat voice sounded: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

At this time, there was silence around, and the eunuch took a brocade box wrapped in yellow silk from the hand of a brocade guard next to him, and inside was a dragon box painted with gold plate, and he carefully took out the holy decree with the yellow silk dark dragon envelope from the box, and sang loudly: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: ...... Slaves and thieves calamity to the country, the people are miserable, all my subjects are gnashing their teeth, now the right capital of the Imperial History, the prime minister Xuanda five provinces governor Lu Xiangsheng was ordered to lead the troops to the king, I am very relieved! Lu Xiang was promoted to the rank of secretary of the Ministry of War, and was given a sword of Shang Fang, a golden box rhino belt, a golden chest and a red unicorn round neck, five hundred taels of silver inside, and 20 silver medals for the purpose of rewarding merit before the battle......"

When he heard this, Lu Xiangsheng, who was lying on the ground, couldn't cry anymore and was extremely excited.

The eunuch recited a long list of them, for about several minutes, and when Yue Yang was a little impatient when he heard it, he finally recited "Qin this!" The two words that Yue Yang had been looking forward to for a long time.

Lu Xiangsheng stood up, his trembling hands respectfully accepted the holy decree, followed by Shang Fang's sword, flower silver, python satin and other gifts, looking at Lu Xiangsheng's excited expression, Yue Yang sighed lightly in his heart. From here, it can be seen how loyal Lu Xiangsheng is to the Ming Dynasty, and Yue Yang estimates that Lu Xiangsheng's loyalty must have reached a full value of one hundred at this time.

After receiving the holy decree, Lu Xiangsheng said to the eunuch again: "My father-in-law has worked hard all the way, but I still have to bother my father-in-law for a while, Lu will go back to express his gratitude, and my father-in-law will bring it back!" ”

The eunuch nodded, "Lord Lu, please take care of yourself!" ”

Lu Xiangsheng hurried back to the big account, after all, the boss had given so many benefits, he had to write a thank you letter for people to take back.

After Lu Xiangsheng left, the generals would look around those holy decrees, Shang Fang's sword, and the golden rhino belt. After all, for them, these things are rare, and the people who have always been able to get these things are important ministers of the court who are highly valued by the emperor.

After Lu Xiang ascended in, the eunuch looked left and right in the camp with his hands behind his back, and when he saw the generals gathered around the holy decree monk Fang Sword and other things and made an exclamatory sound from time to time, he snorted softly from his nostrils, as if he was despising the loneliness of the generals, but when his eyes slashed at Yue Yang's body, he looked at the full set of black and gray closed Goethe armor on Yue Yang's body. He couldn't help but feel a move in his eyes, and slowly walked to Yue Yang's side and looked at Yue Yang carefully.

Yue Yang, who was a little inexplicable by this eunuch, also looked back curiously, and this eunuch asked: "You are the general of the North Shanxi Road, the general of Zhenguo, Yue Yang?" ”

Yue Yang arched his hand and said, "The last general is Yue Yang!" ”

As soon as Yue Yang's words came out, the eunuch's face began to slowly turn cold, and he snorted coldly: "Our family only arrived in the capital yesterday, but your ears are full of your Yueyang's name, and now you are already a famous Jingshi!" ”

Hearing the sarcastic tone in this eunuch's words, Yue Yang naturally didn't think that he was praising himself. It's just that what makes him puzzled is that he doesn't seem to have offended this guy, why is he so impulsive when he speaks.

It is said that ordinary people endure such a thing, after all, the eunuch accompanies the emperor all day long, and sometimes he has such a crooked mouth in the emperor's ear. I have to walk around without food. But Yue Yang is different, although it has been four years since he came to this era, and he even has two children, but with the improvement of his status and the increase of power in his hands. His temper also increased, and people who grew up in modern society did not have much reverence for imperial power, let alone the eunuchs around the emperor.

Yue Yang's face also slowly sank. He looked at the eunuch and asked lightly, "Dare to ask this father-in-law's surname!" ”

The eunuch sneered: "If we don't change our name, we won't change our surname, and our surname will start with a high name!" ”

"High dive?"

After hearing this name, Yue Yang was stunned for a moment, then walked around the other party, and tilted his head to look at the other party for a while, as if he was looking at something rare, and stopped for a long time.

At this time, Yue Yang's heart also appeared in the information of this guy, in the later life, Gao Qiqian's reputation is definitely stinking on the street, greedy for money and afraid of death, bullying superiors and subordinates, framing Zhongliang, etc., from this person's body can find almost all the bad roots of human beings, for such a superb scum Yue Yang is naturally full of curiosity.

I have to say that Yue Yang's move is very impolite in both ancient and modern society, not to mention that the generals looked at Yue Yang in shock, Gao Qiqian himself was also angry by Yue Yang's actions, and his face turned a little pale. I saw him ask angrily, "Yue Yang, what do you mean by looking at our family like this?" ”

"Nothing?" As a party to the case, Yue Yang smiled faintly: "This official has never seen such a heroic figure as Gonggong Gao, so if you look at it twice, Gonggong Gao won't blame this official for this little thing, right?" ”

"You...... You are presumptuous! Gao Qiqian's finger pointed at Yue Yang's trembling, and he couldn't speak for a while, this Yueyang's courage was too great, even Lu Xiangsheng, a member of the imperial court, and the governor of the five provinces, only dared to call himself Lu in front of him, but this little general dared to call himself an official in front of him, this is simply naked contempt! And although Yue Yang praised him for his heroic appearance, in fact, everyone could hear that Yue Yang was saying the opposite, since he had been fighting high and diving into Chongzhen, no one in the court had ever dared to treat him like this, but he didn't expect to be despised by a small general today.

But Gao Qiqian can't say this kind of thing, because according to the rules of the imperial court, he, as the head of the imperial horse prison, is just a fourth-grade official, and Yue Yang is a general and a general of Zhenguo, a second-grade official of the Eight Classics, and the grade is three levels higher than Gao Qiqian, strictly according to the imperial court system, if Gao Qiqian sees Yue Yang on weekdays, he will kneel down and kowtow.

But things in the world can't be looked at so simply, as eunuchs around the emperor, these people are born to see the first level of officials, and Gao Qiqian, who is used to the respectful courtesy of the ministers, met someone who didn't buy his own account for the first time, and for a while he could only point at Yue Yang, his body trembled with anger but he couldn't speak.

At this time, the generals on the side also discovered that Gao Qiqian and Yue Yang had a conflict, and the generals led by Wu Sangui and others were stunned at first, and then they were overjoyed, while the generals of Xuanda were shocked.

Several Xuanda generals hurriedly came over to separate the two, Wang Pu, who had a good relationship with Yueyang, hurriedly walked to Gao Qiqian's side and said good things to make amends, while Yang Guozhu grabbed Yue Yang and shouted in a low voice: "General Yue, you are crazy, you offended Father-in-law Gao, you still don't want to mix in the army!" ”

"Scared?" Yue Yang spat fiercely: "It's just a eunuch who fights with people, what's so spirited!" ”

As soon as Yue Yang's words came out, everyone was shocked...... (To be continued......)
