The reason why Li You didn't bring all the Song troops with him on this expedition was because he still had to keep people to guard the capital, and now he already regarded those civil officials as enemies, and the previous series of actions also greatly damaged their interests, so when he drove the expedition himself, the ghost knew what kind of things they would do in the rear, and Cao Huachun and Luo Yangxing alone could not completely control the situation in the capital, and a more reliable force must be left. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

So Li You simply left Yue Yun and 20,000 Song troops in the capital, this force is definitely something that the officials of the Ming Dynasty can't interfere with, with them, plus the convenient Luo Yangxing, Cao Huachun, and Zhang Zhiji, Wang Qia and others who have long been dead to Li You, can still break their wrists with those civil officials.

This time the royal expedition is completely different from the last time, the last time it was accompanied by the corrupt Ming Jing camp, along the way people continue to fall behind and flee, almost no one thinks that Li You may win, but this time he led 30,000 combat effectiveness far beyond the Song army of this era, and 30,000 new troops, they are not only well-trained, disciplined, well-equipped, but also extraordinarily loyal to the reason, there are also Lu Xiangsheng, Cao Wenzhao, Cao Bianjiao, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Guo and other famous generals, After receiving the training of Li You and Yue Yun, these people's eyes were opened, and their attainments in the art of war had already surpassed themselves in the same period.

There is a precedent for defeating Huang Taiji, and he has such a powerful army in his hands, and the logistics supply is sufficient, so almost no one doubts that Li You will win the final victory this time, in this case, it will become his enemies who should be anxious, Huang Taiji is still far away in Shenyang, there is still a long distance from the capital, and there is no need to be too anxious for the time being, and Guan Ningjun is different, Zu Dashou and others have been in a state of panic since they got the news that Li You decided to drive the expedition, I don't know how to get through the difficult time in front of me.

Those people in the court are really waste, they said that they can solve the emperor, as long as there is another emperor, we can still make a fortune with peace of mind, I didn't expect that the people they sent to poison were actually recognized by the emperor, and immediately made the decision to drive the emperor in person, did someone buy us? Zu Dashou frowned and thought, judging from the news that came out, there were already a lot of Jinyi Wei and Dongchang manpower in the Guan Ning Army, and although the number of people involved in this matter was small, it was not foolproof.

If it was just that he couldn't embezzle money anymore, Zu Dashou might still be able to grit his teeth and set up this wealth, resign to His Majesty and return to his hometown, with the wealth accumulated over the years, he would be able to choose a good place to be a rich man, but at the moment he didn't dare to guarantee that he would be safer if he stayed in the army with the protection of more than 100,000 Guan Ning troops.

"Who leaked the news that we bought the head from Huang Taiji? If I had known it, I would have to cut him with a thousand knives! Someone scolded, if it wasn't for this matter reaching the emperor's ears, maybe they could continue to stay in Liaodong and live comfortably with a rich salary.

"Even without this, our lives would not be easy." Zu Dashou calmly analyzed, "Since the first battle of Zunhua, our Guanning army is no longer the only army that can block the construction of slaves, and its usefulness has been greatly reduced, so Your Majesty will press forward step by step." "The reason why no one dared to move the Guanning army in the past was because they could barely block the Jiannu army, if they were solved, the Jiannu would probably immediately wave their troops south, and now His Majesty with a group of "Jingying" men and horses will beat Huang Taiji to the ground, and it is still in the field, after this battle, no one dares to say anything "Jurchen is not more than ten thousand, full of ten thousand invincible" nonsense, then the Guanning army, which holds millions of taels of silver from the imperial court every year but does not have much gain, has become a thorn in the emperor's eye, a thorn in the flesh, and must be eliminated quickly.

"Step by step, building a castle to lock up Jiannu is the best policy, my Guanning army used to prepare for this, and now Your Majesty is in a hurry to let us go north and fight with Jiannu, so easy to change." Wu Xiang complained that from the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty to the generals of the Guanning Army, they all raised their hands in favor of the strategy of building a city in Liaodong, on the one hand, they could give full play to the advantages of the Ming army being good at defending the city and avoid field battles with Jiannu, and on the other hand, because the cost of building the city was huge, which gave them too many opportunities to get up and down and make a windfall, and they didn't have to worry about someone checking at all.

If there was a rumor in the imperial court that they wanted to investigate, they would immediately report that Jiannu had entered the Kou and destroyed some cities, but fortunately, the soldiers of the Guanning army used their lives to block Jiannu back; By the time the officials from the imperial court arrived, the city that had gone wrong had already become a ruined wall, where else could they find out? And the need to rebuild the city afterwards is a huge expense, and it is an opportunity to make a windfall, and Zu Dashou used this means to make a fortune.

"It's too late to say these things now, and now Your Majesty seems to be determined to clean up our Guanning army, and the army of the imperial army has left the capital, and it looks like it is about to arrive in Liaodong, what should we do?" Zu Dashou stopped everyone's complaints and brought the topic back on track.

"This ....." Everyone couldn't help but become hesitant when they heard this, in the final analysis, no matter how corrupt they were, they were all officials of the Ming Dynasty after all, except for a few people such as Zu Dashou who knew that they could not escape the blame and had completely let go, the rest of them did not dare to confront the emperor head-on.

"Haven't you heard what happened to those court officials who colluded with the Jin merchants before? Those are civilians! Everyone is from Jinshi, and if they are still like this, what will happen to us? "Now that the civil and military are lowly, even the civil officials with prominent backgrounds and deep connections have been uprooted by Li You, do these generals dare to want to escape easily? Zu Dashou saw that people's minds were unstable, and immediately warned, "What we have done over the years is probably worse than that of Jin Shang, Your Majesty will never forgive us, if you don't want to take good countermeasures, not only will I die and have no place to be buried, but even my family members will be beheaded all over the house if they stay up all night!" ”

This terrible reality made those who were lucky immediately extinguish their hopes, yes, what they have done for so many years may have been enough to destroy the Nine Clans, "Lord Zu, can we just wait for death?" You must find a way to save us! Everyone bowed to Zu Dashou in unison.
