Xiaoguantun, the Sichuan army camp borders the Beijing camp, the camp is entrenched in more than two miles, the outer camp is Wang Hong's Chengdu soldiers, and the inner camp is Deng Yu's Chongqing soldiers.

The second general of King Deng was ordered to go north to King Qin in the second year of Chongzhen's second year when the capital division was in danger, and it has been nearly three years since then. In the past three years, they spent most of their time in Beizhili, and in February this year, the military department issued an official document allowing them to return to Sichuan. However, as soon as he walked to Huguang, he was recalled by Kuaima, and he was promoted by the governor of Hubei and stationed in Xiangyang to prevent Shaanxi thieves from going south into Sichuan.

After staying in Hubei for three months, the imperial court transferred them to Henan with a paper order, and placed them under the unified command of the governor of Henan to pacify the thieves in Henan.

They have been away from their hometown for three years, not to mention how many battles they have fought, but they are loyal to the king, and they will go wherever the court wants them to go, and they will not dare to delay at all.

To say that it is really a battle with the thief soldiers, it is also the king's business, but back and forth is exhausting, not even the shadow of a thief soldier, in addition to rushing or hurrying all day long, not to mention that the soldiers under their command are miserable, even Deng Yu and Wang Hong are also miserable, they even said in private that if the court transfers them around like this again, they will either be defeated by the thief army, or their soldiers will collapse and become a thief army.

Bitter to bitter, the orders of the imperial court still have to be listened to, Deng Wei and Wang Hong are also brainless, like Zhou Dunji and Qin Bangping who died in the battle of the Hunhe River, they don't know how to be flexible, and they don't know how to weigh them, they only know that Lu Dao has a will to die, and they never discount the orders of the imperial court, even if it is a mortal battle, they will not frown, and their brains will be hot as soon as they are hot. Therefore, knowing that it would not be possible to go on like this, they still complied with the order and brought soldiers and horses to Denglai.

This loyalty is worthy of appreciation, but it is a pity that since Zhou Dunji and Qin Bangping died in the battle of the Hunhe River, the Sichuan army no longer has any soldiers and horses that can fight. In addition to Qin Liangyu's 3,000 white pole soldiers who stayed in the capital, the huge Sichuan was put together, and only 10,000 soldiers came out, and the ones who could go to the battlefield to kill the enemy were actually Deng Yu and Wang Hong's family members, and the two families added up to only more than 900 people, and the rest were mostly made up. In other words, the 10,000 soldiers of Deng Wei and Wang Hong are actually not much different from the rebels, and may even be inferior, after all, the core and main forces of the rebels, the Dongjiang Liao soldiers, have all fought with Jiannu, and many of them are outlaws. But the elite family members of Deng Wang and Wang have never participated in any battles except for fighting some bandits in Sichuan. Compared with the Dongjiang Liao soldiers, this is obviously much weaker.

In good conscience, Deng Yu and Wang Hong also knew their own situation, so they didn't want to participate in any field battles, they wanted to defend the city, for example, after arriving in Henan, they wanted to be able to enter Kaifeng, Luoyang and other big cities, no matter how bad it was, the city wall of Guide Mansion was still tall. With the city wall to rely on, the second general still has some confidence to fight with the thief army, but if the team is pulled out and set up to fight, the second general will be too weak to do it.

If there were white pole soldiers, they would dare to let go, but the white pole soldiers were all in the capital now, and without the emperor's will, who could transfer them over. Besides, Qin Liangyu's official position is much higher than theirs, and when the white pole soldiers come, it can only be the Qin family who commands them, not them who command the Qin family. After the battle is over, the credit must be the Qin family, nothing to do with them, since this is the case, why do you need to think about any white pole soldiers. Carrying it on his head, he is worthy of both good and evil

When it comes to Qin Liangyu, Deng Yu and Wang Hongna are quite admired, and they show the exploits of Qin Liangyu and the white pole soldiers, and there is no one in the world who is unconvinced.

In the second year of the Apocalypse, Qin Liangyu led the white pole soldiers to relieve the siege of Chengdu, returned to Keerlang Pass, Fotu Pass, and returned to Chongqing. In the third year of the Apocalypse, Qin Liangyu defeated the Yongning extravagant Chongming army, pacified the whole Sichuan, and put down the "Song Rebellion" in the same year.

In the Battle of Shenyang, Qin Liangyu's brothers Qin Bangping, Qin Minping and the general soldier Zhou Dunji led the "white pole soldiers" and the Qi army in Zhejiang resolutely crossed the Hunhe River and fought a bloody battle with the Manchurian Tartars knowing that they would be defeated. Thousands of Manchurian soldiers were killed in the battle, and finally let the Manchu Tartars, who had always been invincible, know that there were still such brave soldiers in the Ming army, and they were afraid of it for a long time. Due to the disparity in numbers, Qin Bangping died in battle, Qin Minping broke through in blood, and more than 2,000 white-pole soldiers died in battle. But it was precisely from this that Qin Liangyu's stone pillar "white pole soldiers" walked out of Sichuan and became famous all over the world.

In the third year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji attacked Yuguan and could not enter, so he led 100,000 Eight Banner Army to invade through the Xifengkou of the Great Wall, and after capturing Zunhua, he arrived outside Beijing, and even Ke Yongping four cities, and the Ming court was shaken. The Jin soldiers took the opportunity to go straight to Tongzhou, and the situation in Beijing was very urgent. Chongzhen once again ordered all the armies in the world to suppress the king.

Shi Jiannu is powerful, and there are many soldiers and horses who come to Beijing to master Qinwang, but the generals of all parties are afraid of the enemy like tigers, and only care about self-preservation.

After Qin Liangyu received the order, she led her 3,000 white-pole soldiers to rush to Beijing day and night, and took out all her family property as military salaries to make up for the lack of military supplies caused by the imperial court's successive wars. After arriving at the Beijing Division, the white pole soldiers and the Jin army met on the periphery of the Beijing Division, and before they had time to set up camp, Qin Liangyu ordered an attack!

Qin Liangyu, who is fifty-five years old, dances a white-pole spear in his hand, like snow flying, pear blossoms fluttering, and where the blade passes, the golden soldiers either fall to the ground or split their hands and feet. All the white pole soldiers and soldiers, all of them were as powerful as tigers, and they beat the golden soldiers and fled. This courage is far from being as good as the two of them, and they are not only admired.

Subsequently, under the command of the superintendent Sun Chengzong, Qin Liangyu participated in the recovery of the four cities of Luanzhou, Yongping, Qian'an, and Zunhua, rescued the siege of the capital, and brought out the prestige of the white pole soldiers again.

After the withdrawal of the army, Chongzhen sighed for the loyalty and courage of Qin Liangyu and the white pole soldiers, specially summoned Qin Liangyu, praised the edict, rewarded the colorful coins and sheep wine, and gave four poems to show his merits.

Subsequently, it was the Ming Zhao Shizhu soldiers (white pole soldiers) who could be stationed in the Beijing Division, which made other military towns in the world envious, because the Beijing Division was important, except for the Beijing camp, there has never been a local army stationed for a long time. Today, the emperor clearly allowed the stone pillar soldiers to be stationed in the capital, which shows how much he values Qin Liangyu and her white pole soldiers. Not only that, but the white pole soldiers enjoy the treatment of the Beijing camp, and the food and supplies are sufficient, compared to those border troops, it is simply the difference between heaven and earth.

is also a Sichuan soldier, one is favored by the Son of Heaven to be stationed in the capital to eat and drink spicy, and the other is running back and forth from north to south desperately, and has to be subject to the locality, often worrying about what to eat next, this difference can not but make Deng Wei and Wang Hong both sour and have to admire the white pole soldiers.

People are more popular than people, people are fighting with a knife and a gun, what is there to be red about. Let's take care of the immediate situation, if the rebels in Denglai are not destroyed, his Sichuan soldiers will not be able to return to their hometown for a day.

After receiving the holy decree, Deng Wei and Wang Hong urged the soldiers to march for days, and hundreds of people were left behind on the way. After rushing for more than ten days, I finally met with Jingying

After arriving at Xiaoguantun, Deng Wei and Wang Hong immediately reported to Gao Qiqian, they thought that they would attack the rebels outside Laizhou City in these two days, but Gao Qiqian asked them to camp in Xiaoguantun with the Jingying and Jizhen army, without mentioning when to send troops.

The grain and grass required by the Sichuan army were also allocated by the Beijing camp, and the thistle, Liao soldiers and horses allocated to Jin Guoqi were different, and the grain and grass allocated to the Sichuan army by Gao Qiqian was given by heaven, and there was no more than one day. This made Deng Wei and Wang Hong very angry, isn't this a clear bully, everyone is also an official soldier, why can he Jin Guoqi receive more grain and grass, but they can't. But under the eaves, people have to bow their heads, their subordinates are dressed in tatters, and even the weapons are not ready, but the soldiers and horses of Jingying and Ji and Liao are tall and big, and the clothes and armor are distinct.

On the heavens, the heavens will give it, as long as the grain and grass are given, Deng Wei and Wang Hong had no choice but to admit the reality of injustice, thinking that Gao Qiqian would send troops to attack the rebels as soon as possible, and they would have left as soon as possible.

But for more than half a month, Gao Qiqian did not mention the attack on the rebels in Laizhou, and nearly 20,000 troops spent food and salary here every day, and I don't know what medicine he sold in Gao Qiqian's gourd.

Deng Wei and the commander of the Beijing camp Lin Jiantai have some friendship, when he went north to Qinwang, he had seen this commander of the Beijing camp in Tongzhou, although he can't talk about how thick the friendship is, but there is finally a relationship. Therefore, after discussing with Wang Hong, Deng Wei wanted to visit Lin Jiantai so that he could find out some news from the other party's mouth, what does this high eunuch mean by staying still here. In addition, I also want to ask Lin Jiantai to talk to Gao Qiqian about whether he can replenish some cotton clothes and cold materials for their Sichuan soldiers. When they came from Changyi, the soldiers did not have many cotton clothes on them, and some of them had been wearing them for several years. Now that the weather is so cold, seeing that their soldiers are frostbitten because they are not tolerant of the cold, Deng Wei and Wang Hong feel a little guilty, although these soldiers are not their own soldiers, and they do not expect them to fight any battles and kill any enemies, but they are all children of their hometown, seeing them cold and hungry, the second general is always uncomfortable.

Wang Hong's heart is more lively, and if he really can't do it, he will spend some money to make it, eunuchs love money, and if they get benefits, they will definitely be able to relax.

Deng Yu thought about it, so he and Wang Hong took a total of 1,000 taels each, a total of 2,000 taels of silver, and another person took 250 taels, and made up 500 taels to Lin Jiantai, and asked him to dredge Gao Qiqian on his behalf, and handed the 2,000 taels over, hoping that Eunuch Gao could take care of their Sichuan army after getting the silver, and at least he had to allocate some weapons and cotton clothes.

Two thousand five hundred taels of silver is already a small half of the family of Deng Wang and the others, the guest army is poor, the guest army is poor, this has been said for decades, but it is not false at all. When they were in Sichuan, Deng Wang and the others responded to every call, full of local snakes, and there were many ways to make money, and they didn't care about a few thousand taels of silver at all. But after leaving the territory, they wandered around like rootless duckweed, and they were not welcomed everywhere, not to mention the military salary, before and after nearly three years, a total of two military salaries were paid, one was four thousand taels, one was given three thousand taels, and two times plus a piece was only seven thousand taels of silver, but they had 10,000 soldiers under their command, which counted, one person did not even have one or two silver!

When the army is outside, eating, drinking, eating, drinking, sheltering, and traveling, what kind of money does not need money? Even the maintenance of weapons requires silver!

The imperial court wants the horses to run, but also does not let the horses eat, what kind of thing is it!

Asking for money from the imperial court, the reply is the same, it is nothing more than saying how difficult the country is, the treasury is empty, and I hope that they will take state affairs as the priority, cut down on food and clothing, and replenish the treasury when there is a surplus in the future. To put it bluntly, it is up to the Sichuan army to find a way by itself, except that you can't rob it, you can solve the military salary by yourself.

How to fix it? Deng Yu and Wang Hong have no choice, they can only take care of the family members who save their lives, and the rest of the people can't manage it if they want to, and you can do it if you don't starve to death.

Speaking of which, Deng Yu and Wang Hong have really lost their blood, and they have successively paid a lot of money to make up for it, and now they are also terribly poor.

If these two thousand five hundred taels can have an effect, the second general will also admit it, if it is lost, the second general is afraid that he will definitely not do it. Officialdom has the rules of officialdom, as long as you take this silver, this thing must be done, otherwise, you can't take this silver.

The second general is not afraid that Gao Qiqian will take the money and not do anything, if they really dare to do this, they will immediately expose this matter and expose it to those officials in the capital, these people have not looked down on the eunuchs, and they are idle and have nothing to do. At present, Lin is in charge of the Middle East, and it is not the eunuch party of the former dynasty who is in power, and it is really troublesome, and it is not good to raise the potential!

With this killer feature, Deng Wei and Wang Hong were not afraid to raise their silver and dare to ignore them, and after collecting the silver tickets, Deng Wei came forward to find Lin Jiantai.

The Beijing camp and the Sichuan army are camped together, and in front of them are the camps of Jizhen and the Liao army, and they don't care about each other on weekdays.

Deng Wei did not dare to go to Lin Jiantai during the day, but chose to rest in the middle of the night before leading the two personal soldiers to take advantage of the night to walk towards the Beijing camp.

On the way, I met a group of patrol soldiers from the Beijing camp, and the sentry officer who led the team saw that it was a general soldier, and did not dare to stop them from letting them in.

Deng Wei went directly to Lin Jiantai's camp, and the commander's camp was naturally different from other camps, so it was not difficult to find. Outside the tent, Deng Wei explained his intention to Lin Jiantai's personal soldier captain, and asked him to enter the tent and spread the word, saying that it was Deng Zongbing of the Sichuan Army who asked to see him.

The chief soldier asked to see his own commander, and the captain of the pro-soldier naturally did not fail to pass it on, and came out after a while after entering the account, saying that Lord Lin invited Deng Zongbing to enter.

Deng Yu hurriedly told the two soldiers to wait outside the tent, and walked into the tent, but after entering the tent, he found that in addition to Lin Jiantai, there were three people in the tent.
