"Wu Sangui!?" Wu Shigong suddenly screamed. After traveling to the Ming Dynasty, I finally met a second historical celebrity besides Wei Zhongxian. But at this time, Wu Shigong's first thought was ...... It is...... It's Chen Yuanyuan!!

For so many years, Wu Shigong arranged for people to inquire secretly, but he couldn't inquire about Wu Sangui's whereabouts, but he didn't expect that he would suddenly appear in front of his eyes today, which was an unexpected surprise. So where is Chen Yuanyuan? Wu Shigong couldn't help but crooked in his mind again.

But Wu Shigong calmed down and thought about it, and couldn't help grinning. This Wu Sangui looks like a teenager, and it is estimated that the hair on his body has not grown, so don't talk about Chen Yuanyuan's hair. How, though...... Why did you think of Chen Yuanyuan's body again?

Seeing that Wu Shigong was smiling very weirdly, Liu Zeqing on the side stabbed Wu Shigong with his elbow, and then whispered in Wu Shigong's ear: "What are you smirking at?" Even if you can't get used to seeing the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, even if you feel that your credit is greater than that of Wu Sangui, you don't want to show this expression in front of the big tent! It's not good to be seen by others. ”

"But according to my brother, only you can be called a young hero, and Wu Sangui was also praised by the Liaodong Army. Don't take it to heart. ”

Wu Shigong immediately accepted Liu Zeqing's kindness, and there was no explanation for Liu Zeqing's misunderstanding, so they returned to their camp with a smile and chat.

After returning to his tent, Wu Shigong pondered. Four historical figures of this era that I know have appeared. Not to mention Chen Yuanyuan, Wei Zhongxian, Emperor Chongzhen, Li Zicheng and Wu Sangui. Therefore, what should be traveled by yourself is the original history of the Ming Dynasty.

But I don't know the historical process at all, for example, the current inexplicable Kong Youde Denglai rebellion, I didn't know about it at all in my previous life. But that's okay, just go with the flow and try it yourself.

However, Wu Shigong also analyzed a good news: since Wu Sangui has appeared. Then it will not be too far to prove that the time for him to release the soldiers into the customs will not be too far away. However, the age of Wu Sangui seen today is too young, and he knows that his status in the Liaodong Army is not particularly high, so the time when he is in charge of the First Army stationed at Shanhaiguan will not be too close.

Then there is still some time left for Wu Shigong, even if it is ten years. Eight years. As long as you have enough strength in eight years, you will still have your own place in the disputes of the world's heroes.

And in just four years, he started from scratch to develop the Runing Camp to the current level, and there will be another eight years. Reaching your goals is also not out of reach.

Wu Shigong didn't know that unconsciously, with the enhancement of his shili, he had raised his goal from keeping the safety of his family to becoming a prince on one side.

But if you don't hurry, it's definitely too late. How much should the army be expanded? At least 30,000 or 50,000. And 100,000 troops must be mobilized at any time. But what about the salaries and supplies of these armies? Where will the Runing Camp go to develop new sources of income? How should the coercion of the local government be broken? ……

Anyway, Wu Shigong thought more and more. He had a rare insomnia. It wasn't until the middle of the night that Wu Shigong fell asleep grogily.

After suffering the defeat of the Sand River. Kong Youde's rebel army Zuihou only collected more than 11,000 people. But the rebels did not break their bones. Except for the loss of more than 800 Lao Liao troops (basically all of them were wiped out by Wu Shigong's coalition forces), the rest of the Lao Liao army, cavalry, artillery and other weapons were safely withdrawn.

Kong Youde is also very decisive, he knows that the current rebels may be attacked by the Ming army from both sides, and it is unrealistic to besiege Laizhou City anymore. So he joined up with Li Jiucheng's army, which was besieging Laizhou City, and raised all the artillery, gathering more than 25,000 people. Evacuated to the line of Huangxian County.

After arriving in Huangxian, Kong Youde gathered the rebel cavalry and chariots that were sweeping around Huangxian, and gathered more than 8,000 people, plus more than 6,000 people from Laizhou to reinforce him. A total of 40,000 rebels, known as the 100,000 army, are preparing for the next decisive battle with the Ming army.

After resting for a day, the Ming army was still in the vanguard of the Liaodong Army and the coalition army, and first drove to Laizhou City to relieve the siege of Laizhou City. At this time, the Ming army had a total of 53,000 men and horses, more than 20,000 people, and claimed to be 200,000.

There was no battle at all in this battle to relieve the siege, but when I was marching all the way, I saw the desolation brought about by the military disaster.

However, when the vanguard cavalry of the Liaodong Army drove under the city of Laizhou on August 5, the city of Laizhou did not open the city gate no matter what. And when the large forces of the Liaodong Army and the coalition army came, Laizhou City still did not open the city gate.

The officers and soldiers in Laizhou City did not believe in the identity of the Ming army under the city at all, which was also to blame on the cavalry of the Liaodong Army.

No way, wait for the leader. When the main force of the Ming army arrived on August 6, Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian personally wore official robes to call the door, and Laizhou City still did not open the city gate. Then find some officials who are familiar with the chief soldier Yang Yufan to persuade him, but Yang Yufan still resolutely refuses to open the city gate. At this time, the only remaining high-ranking official in Laizhou City, the general soldier Yang Yufan, had been made a little mentally ill by the deception of Kong Youde's rebels.

In desperation, Gao Qiqian could only send a few little eunuchs around him to persuade Yang Yufan. This time Yang Yufan reluctantly agreed, and Yang Yufan ordered to use hanging baskets to hang those little eunuchs into Laizhou City.

And after enjoying the good show of calling the door for two days, all the officials of the Ming army were angry and funny. I saw the little eunuchs being hung up on the city wall. Liu Zeqing asked Wu Shigong with a smile: "Brother Changjing, do you think this time will the door be successful?" ”

Wu Shigong didn't answer, he laughed and shouted loudly: "I'll make a gamble!" The dealer is the success of this call! Whoever wants to come to the gambling and call the door is unsuccessful, come to me to press the lottery! The training rate is one to two, the opportunity is rare, come and buy it! ”

Wu Shigong's shout attracted the military attache of the coalition army to be daxiao. Just think about it, how will those little eunuchs persuade them? Of course I can't use my mouth, I must have taken off my pants to persuade me! This eunuch can't fake it. What fool would take part in such a losing game?

Sure enough. It didn't take much effort for the gate of Laizhou to finally open. Of course, it was impossible for the army to enter the city, so Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian entered Laizhou City with their personal entourage. As for the tragicomedy of how the chief soldier Yang Yufan cried in front of Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian, Wu Shigong, a military attache who couldn't enter Laizhou City, couldn't appreciate it.

Anyway, the first stage of the Ming army's military operation to exterminate Kong Youde's rebels was successfully completed. Although there was no battle with the rebels, the siege of Laizhou City was finally relieved, so Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian sent messengers again to report the victory to the imperial court. The Ming army also ushered in a long period of rest in Laizhou City.

The successive victories made the entire court jubilant. Emperor Chongzhen also showed a long-lost smile. When he saw that Wu Sangui's name was in the list of the first meritorious service, he smiled and said to Wang Chengen: "He is worthy of being a filial son and a loyal minister!" This young military general is also loyal and brave. ”

"It's not the Son of Heaven who knows the hero yet!" Wang Chengen also smiled on the side and joked, "Therefore, it is said: Tiger father and dog son, but his Wu family is dog father and tiger son upside down." If it weren't for the emperor's wisdom, his Wu family wouldn't have had that chance to turn over. ”

Emperor Chongzhen was touted as very comfortable, but he still smiled and waved his hand and said modestly: "It's not so exaggerated, it's just that the soldiers use their lives." Don't talk about Wu Xiang anymore. This time he punched the thief, and his exploits were not small. Let him be reinstated. ”

Emperor Chongzhen was very interested and then looked at the list of meritorious personnel, and when he saw Wu Shigong's name, he put away his smile and frowned. This son-in-law who stole the little widow was too impressed.

Wang Chengen is very good at observing words and feelings, he secretly glanced at the list, and immediately made a decision, not wanting to cause any trouble.

But Emperor Chongzhen did not let go of Wang Chengen, he knocked on Wu Shigong's name, and said to Wang Chengen: "Although you have the ability, your character is poor, and you can't reuse it!" ”

"That's it!" Wang Chengen must have followed Emperor Chongzhen's words, "Xue Hou has also asked the old slave to trust him a few times, and he is still thinking about transferring his son-in-law back to the capital." ”

Emperor Chongzhen was very satisfied, he was satisfied with Wang Chengen's honest attitude towards him. So the mood changed again, and Emperor Chongzhen said: "Xue Hou is also confused, let his inferior son-in-law sharpen himself in the local area for a few more years." In any case, his son-in-law has made a lot of meritorious contributions, and I can't be rewarded for his merits. And his son-in-law has been transferred back to the capital, what official position do I have for him to sit on? ”

"The emperor is really wise." Wang Chengen saluted and complimented.

When he saluted, Wang Chengen was thinking in his heart: It's not that I don't want to help, but that the emperor doesn't agree! Xue Hou, don't blame me anymore. But if you tell Xue Hou about the emperor's words today, how much benefit can you get from Xue Hou?

Xue Lian's once again kind attempt to transfer Wu Shigong back to the capital failed. However, if Wu Shigong knew about Xue Lian's efforts, he would not call Xue Lian's father-in-law, but kneel and call Xue Lian's grandfather!

At this time, Jiang Cheng and other Ming troops in the rear also took advantage of the rest period to come up, and Qingzhou and other places also sent people to send a large amount of grain, grass and ordnance to the Ming army. The Ming army also requisitioned more than 3,000 people on the spot in Laizhou City. Wu Shigong's Runing battalion was also divided into 300 people. However, Wu Shigong found a big surprise among those people. (To be continued......)
