Wake up the dreamer with a word, Zhang Luofu hurriedly said that the preparatory troupe is all Lingdu Governor soldiers and horses, and Ling Jingyang decided to appoint a new Zhizhou in Fenzhou to balance Zhang Luofu.

Everyone watched the formation in the barracks, and Ling Jingyang affirmed Zhang Luofu's training ability, which was able to train a group of recruits in a short period of time, and Zhang Luofu's ability was worth further reuse.

However, at this time, Ling Jingyang needs Zhang Luofu to train his troops, instead of going to the front line to kill.

After watching the drill for a while, Ling Jingyang and Zhang Luofu came to the back of the military camp parade platform, Ling Jingyang asked Yue Ling to clear the field, and there were only him and Zhang Luofu in a radius of fifty meters in the entire backstage, and he and Zhang Luofu said: "Luo Fu, what do you think of the general trend of the world?" ”

Zhang Luofu didn't think much about it, he tried his best to train troops in Fenzhou, in order to drive away Jiannu and suppress the rebellion, he replied: "My lord, the general trend of the world, I and other ordinary people do our best." ”

"Well, it can be seen that after the beginning of spring, the Dashun Army, the Imperial Court, the Hongguang Imperial Court, and the warlords in Daxi and other places will fight for territory, and blood will be sprinkled all over the land at one time."

"What my lord said is that if Jiannu didn't fight, and we ourselves fought again, the last general thought that we could affect the war in the Jiannu occupation area, so that Jiannu could also taste the war."

After Ling Jingyang fought for more than half a year, Zhang Luofu's heart changed a lot, and he no longer regarded the Dashun army as the mortal enemy of the imperial court, because he realized that the Qing army was the real enemy, even if it was infighting, he had to pull the Qing army to fight infighting together, this idea was not realistic in Ling Jingyang's opinion.

Because the Chongzhen army, the Hongguang army, or the Dashun army, and the Daxi army are not opponents of the Qing army, only when they are united, can there be a glimmer of life, and it is almost hellish level of difficulty for these forces to unite and attack the Qing army.

In this regard, he was not hopeful, and said to Zhang Luofu: "Maybe our army has the courage to attack the Qing army, but what about the soldiers and horses in other places?" They can't defeat the Qing army, and they have to survive, and the only way to do this is to annex the forces that are weaker than their own forces, and there will be a vicious circle, and the Qing army can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, accumulate strength, and wait for the warlords in various places to kill the bloody rivers in one fell swoop. ”

Zhang Luofu was angry, and Ling Jingyang said again: "I came to Fen this time."

On the way to the state, I heard that there are rebels in Pingyang Prefecture, as well as in Fenzhou, Qinzhou and other places, you should pay close attention to Fenzhou, and don't be robbed of military power. ”

Speaking of which, Zhang Luofu sounded Zhang Tianlin, who was pinned on by Li Zicheng to defend Shanxi, but was successfully seized power by Jiang Xuan, who had already surrendered, and lost an important stronghold, resulting in a serious setback in the military strength of the Dashun army, and was defeated again and again in the face of the Qing army's attack.

"My lord, there is a rebellion in Fenzhou, even if the last general dies, these rebels must be killed, and the reserve army must be brought back to Yicheng."

"Well, I came to Fenzhou this time for another purpose, to get grain, grass and military salaries from Lin Erle and the family behind him, these grains, grasses and military salaries are the basis for the survival of our army, without these, our army will gradually become a plate of scattered sand."

"My lord, why did you ask them for food, grass and silver?"

"Sell officials, I sold dozens of official positions in Henan Mansion, Huaiqing Mansion, and Qinzhou to them, and the silver and grain and grass sold are enough to last until the summer grain harvest, and by that time, the reserve army must have completed its preparations, right?"

"Don't worry, it won't take so long, after the summer, I can train the reserve army into a qualified team, but without war horses and firearms, the strength of these two arms may not be as good as swordsmen, spearmen and archers."

"If you don't have a war horse, then go buy it, I have asked the Wen family, the Qiao family and other merchants to go to the Mongolian Plateau to trade with the Mongols, maybe you can exchange it for some war horses, but this firearm, there are not enough craftsmen and materials, so I have to put it aside for the time being, and wait for our army to recover more cities, gather more craftsmen and technical officials, and then pick up the cast artillery and firearms."

The strength of the Chongzhen court is too weak, whether it is the Dashun army or the Qing army, as long as the heavy army attacks, Ling Jingyang and Jiang Hao can't resist it, only in the Hongguang court, the Dashun army, the Daxi army, Zuo Liangyu and other forces are infighting, and the Qing army is accumulating strength in the wait-and-see development.

Ling Jingyang's latest task to Zhang Luofu is to build a defensive line in the west of Pingyang Mansion, not only to guard against the Qing army, but also to prevent being annexed by the Dashun army and Jiang Xuan.

Zhang Luofu has 20,000 soldiers and horses, more than enough to garrison Fenzhou, Ling Jingyang had lunch in the barracks, after lunch, Zhang Luofu took him to walk around Pingyao City, Ling Jingyang thought that Lin Erle was in charge tonight

The best Qinglou banquet for him, and asked Zhang Luofu what are the famous fireworks places in the local area?

Zhang Luofu didn't look back at it, and when he heard it clearly, Ling Jingyang asked him where there was a place for fireworks, and a weird smile appeared on his face.

"My lord, the biggest fireworks place in Pingyao City is Yihong Mansion, and the others are all wild kilns."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Luo Fuse looked at Ling Jingyang with squints, as long as Ling Jingyang gave him a look, he would immediately arrange the best girl for Ling Jingyang.

Zhang Luofu is Ling Jingyang's confidant, Ling Jingyang was not wary of him, and said to him: "Lin Erle is going to have a banquet for me in the best Qinglou in the city tonight, and I have decided to let Lin Erle be the same acquaintance of Fenzhou, and you two will only partner in Fenzhou in the future." ”

Lin Erle was a Tongzhi before, a subordinate of Zhang Luofu, and now he is a Tongzhi of Fenzhou, and Zhang Luofu is almost on an equal footing, from the lower level to the same level, Zhang Luofu was a little unwilling to accept it, but he was soon relieved, after all, he was the commander of Ling Jingyang's reserve army.

The two changed into civilian clothes and came to Yihong Mansion with a few personal soldiers, this green building is large-scale, people come and go at the door, some women with thick foundation are shouting at the door, and on the second floor, there are really a few women who are quite beautiful and laughing.

"Zhang Luofu, have you ever been here?"

Zhang Luofu's face turned red, but he still said: "My lord, I am dedicated to training, how can I be so interested?" ”

He wanted to go in for Ling Jingyang to have a look, but Ling Jingyang shook his head with him, thinking that it would be good if Fang Xiaoyan was still alive, and after the establishment of the Special Bureau, various intelligence stations could be established in various places, including the intelligence station under the guise of Qinglou, he felt a little sorry for Fang Xiaoyan. After the battle at Bailu Mountain, he specially summoned Niu Guangtian and asked him if Fang Xiaoyan and the others were still alive.

Niu Guangtian didn't know that on the day Xinxiang City was breached, Fang Xiaoyan and his subordinates had no shadow, and they didn't know whether they were dead or alive?

He fell into inexplicable sadness, Zhang Luofu thought that Ling Jingyang had a good relationship in the Qinglou, and was surprised that Ling Dudu's woman was good, there was Bai Lushui, and there were Wen Mandarin ducks, and there were still good women in Pingyao City, and then looked at Ling Jingyang's appearance, he was really handsome, no wonder women liked it.
