Chapter 13: One will be hard to find

When Ye Xiaotian and Ma Qiancheng entered the mansion together and wanted to visit General Wan, Governor Li Hualong was in General Wan's Mansion.

Li Hualong is the governor, he is already higher than the general soldier, and at this time, the civil dignity and military inferiority, the status is even more disparity, it stands to reason that if there is anything, the general soldier should go to the palace to discuss the matter, but this time for Liu Ting, Li Hualong had to condescend.

Li Hualong knew by heart the life history, temperament, and talents of the generals gathered in Chongqing. He knew that although Yang Yinglong's retreat from defense was a bad move, it was indeed not suitable to deal with the concentration of troops and the defense according to the danger.

Previously, Yang Yinglong attacked and won again and again, and then the Ming army counterattacked, and again and again, and the court was sharp. On the one hand, it is because Yang Yinglong himself is really good, and on the other hand, it is also because the generals of Bashu have not experienced a major war for a long time and lack battlefield experience, so famous generals like Liu Ting have become even more indispensable.

The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and it is necessary to have a famous general with experience in battle formations to command the battle, otherwise he Li Hualong is sitting in Chongqing, and he is beyond the reach of the whip, and no matter how wise he is, he will not be able to decide the situation on the front line.

However, Liu Ting and Yang Yinglong have always had a good relationship, and this matter has not only become a jealousy of the imperial court, but Liu Ting himself is also quite resistant to it. The martial artist especially attached great importance to righteousness, and asked him to go to war with his friends, but Liu Ting was very reluctant. So although he was ordered to rush to Chongqing, he also shirked everything, hoping to avoid a battle with Yang Yinglong.

Li Hualong had already tested his mind before, and Liu Ting bargained with the governor and the imperial court to put forward many harsh conditions, obviously wanting to deliberately avoid war. A veteran ruffian like Liu Ting is not afraid of the court's sanctions at all, he had connived at the soldiers before, and was dismissed from his post by the court once, such a piece of hob meat, Governor Li has nothing to do with him.

Li Hualong wanted Liu Ting to "take command", and Liu Ting put forward a bunch of conditions. Asking for military baggage is still secondary, and he also put forward a necessary condition: he will be the rebel general!

Liu Ting's original words were: Wan Jin, what is the big deal? I, Liu Dadao, went into battle to kill the enemy, do I still need to appoint another general soldier to point fingers behind my back? Lao Tzu doesn't do it, unless he entrusts me with dictatorship and hands over the rebellious military power to me.

Liu Ting is now the deputy commander-in-chief, he has great military achievements, even if he has no merit from now on, he can be promoted to the highest level of military generals by accumulating qualifications. is not a hot position at all, he deliberately caused problems to the imperial court, and wanted to force the imperial court to transfer him away.

However, Li Hualong recognized that only Liu Ting could preside over the overall situation with the available generals at hand, and if another member of the army was transferred to the future, it would take another three or five months, and the consumption of more than 200,000 troops stationed in Chongqing Mansion to eat and feed horses was still a trivial matter, if this gave Yang Yinglong a chance to breathe, let him set up dangers all over the newly occupied territory. To strengthen the level, you will inevitably pay even greater sacrifices in the future.

So, Li Hualong decided to persuade Wan Zongbing to give way, and Wan Zongbing was very old. I have long begged the Ming Court to return to my hometown, but the war continues, and there is no suitable candidate to replace him for a while, so he is still in office. But. He took the initiative to seek return, and with Liu Ting's deliberate difficulty, if General Wan gave way at this time. It's not nice to say.

Who is willing to convince the generals, not to mention that General Soldier Wan and Liu Ting's father, Liu Xian, the General Soldier of Guangdong, are the same generation, that is Liu Ting's elder, so Li Hualong deigned to Wanfu and persuaded Wan Jun.

Wan Li really felt uncomfortable when he heard this, but he also understood that Liu Ting was so difficult, not that he really looked down on him, but that he was unwilling to fight his old friend Yang Yinglong. Wan Cheng said to Li Hualong: "Lord Governor, it is not difficult to abdicate the last general and make way for Xian!" The difficulty is that Liu Ting doesn't want to fight with Yang Yinglong, but he is afraid that the last general will retreat, and he still has to find many excuses to prevaricate.

This is not the most terrifying, the most terrifying thing is that he barely went to the battlefield, but he couldn't really regard Yang Yinglong as an opponent. Yang Yinglong has rebelled, if he wins, he will be king, if he loses, he will die, there is no way to retreat, he will not be merciful when he is in time, once Liu Ting looks forward and backward, I am afraid that he will harm others and himself! ”

Li Hualong nodded, his brows furrowed: "Now there are 300,000 heroes and more than 100 generals, but there is only one Liu Dadao who is in the heart of the governor." If the imperial court wants to send another general who can be of great use, I am afraid that it will take another three or five months......"

As they were talking, General Wan's family would rush to report that Ye Xiaotian wanted to see him. Wan Yan suddenly moved with joy and said, "Ye Xiaotian? This kid is clever and cunning, Lord Governor, maybe this person can solve this problem! ”

As a local official who is very popular, Li Hualong also knows a little about Ye Xiaotian, but he only knows that this person has become a big toast in Guizhou from a grass man in a few years, and he also knows that he is a figure that the Eagle Party strives to woo, but he doesn't know much about his personality.

After listening to General Wan's words, Li Hualongqi said: "General Wan, that Ye Xiaotian is a local official in Guizhou, how do you understand it like this?" ”

Wan Zongbing said with a smile: "I have a close friend, surnamed Jing, who is an official in Nanzhen Fusi. but his son works under my command as a nephew. This kid often hovers in my house, once told me about the life of this Ye Xiaotian, this person is full of scheming, cunning is very cunning, when he was in Jinling, it was a piece of hob meat that went through the three departments of punishment, etiquette and officials within three days, and made the six Shangshu helpless, such a character, presumably knows best how to deal with another piece of hob meat! ”

Li Hualong sighed lightly and said: "I have also heard about this matter, it turns out that the officialdom who visited three departments in three days is Ye Xiaotian?" Legend has it that this person was born as a jailer, a day a division, Shangshu was helpless, the uncle retreated, and had to be praised by the prime minister, when the governor listened, he was also deeply surprised. It's just that there is no news of him later, it turns out that he has changed from a rogue official to a local official, this experience is really ......" After counting Ye Xiaotian's rare things, Li Hualong didn't know how to evaluate this person.

Wan Yan smiled: "Isn't this the person!" How cunning and wise this person is, after all, is just a rumor. However, he was able to go from being a jailer, but he became a toast in just a few years, at least this luck is unmatched, what does the Governor think? ”

Li Hualong stroked his beard and nodded, thinking deeply, he has been an official all his life, and he understands too well the truth that it is up to people to make things happen and things to be done. If there is a person with great luck, then there is really no reason for him to succeed.

Li Hualong said: "Okay! See him, leave him when you have finished your business, and the Governor will talk to him again. ”

General Soldier Wan agreed, and asked someone to ask the governor to serve tea in the side compartment, and here he called someone to pass on Ye Xiaotian. Wan Zongbing was sitting precariously, waiting for Ye Xiaotian, when he heard the sound of footsteps outside, and said in a big grinning voice: "Uncle, uncle, Xiaoma brought his daughter-in-law to come to see you, what about your daughter Hong, who has been hidden in the altar for eighteen years?" It's time to move out! ”
