Jizhen was confused, not only to fake surrender, but not even to inform the governor, what if Daniel Zhang was in a hurry and led troops to attack Pingliang? Do you want to fight back or not? If you fight back, it is equivalent to really surrendering, if you don't fight back, won't you be beaten in the face?

Wang Fuchen's face was not shocked, he took a sip of tea, and crossed Erlang's legs in contemplation. Wang Jizhen didn't dare to disturb, and thought quietly on the side, but couldn't figure out what was going on anyway.

After a while, a Goshha hurriedly came in: "Lord Admiral, the people are here, just outside the eastern city of Pingliang." ”

Wang Fuchen got up with a bullet, shook his spirits, and his eyes fell on Wang Jizhen: "Zhen'er, go with your father to meet the envoy." ”

Wang Jizhen just got up in a daze, and his father had already left the hall with his hands behind his back, so he immediately dispelled all kinds of strange ideas and trotted to follow.

Outside the east city of Pingliang, a carriage stopped at the closed door opening, a few makeup merchants Jia's Ming envoys sometimes raised their eyes to see the movement on the city wall, sometimes bowed their heads and waited patiently, the envoys of the Ming Dynasty came a total of three, headed by the Ministry of Rites Lang Lan Jinshu, the remaining two are all the sons of the Beizhen Fusi, Lan Jinshu was originally a civil official of the Jinxia Water Division, and later voted for the Ming Dynasty, working in the Ministry of Officials, six or seven years of outstanding political achievements, and was promoted to the head of the Ministry of Rites, and then the Ministry of Rites had a vacancy, and he naturally went to the top, This time, the imperial court sent a big man like him here, which also shows the importance that the Ming Dynasty attaches to Wang Fuchen.

Now the battle is imminent, the Manchurian people poured out 100,000 troops have gradually assembled in Henan and Hebei, of which the main force is naturally 150,000 Eight Banners Iron Cavalry, in addition, there are more than 200,000 green battalions as auxiliary troops, but when it comes to combat power, Mengbaqi is naturally a well-deserved elite, and the green battalion soldiers are obviously several grades worse, but the Longyou cavalry in the northwest is different from the Pingliang cavalry, although they are also Han troops, but they have been garrisoning the northwest, proficient in cavalry and archery, and also one of the main forces, the cavalry in the entire northwest has more than 70,000 people, once they participate in the war, Then the contrast between the Manchu and the Ming Dynasty is naturally not so disparity, Wang Fuchen guarded Pingliang City, guarding the passage between the northwest and the Central Plains, if Wang Fuchen surrendered to the Ming, then the Longyou cavalry did not want to rush out of the northwest, so the Ming suddenly reduced a strong enemy.

The city gate slowly opened, and with a horn whining on the city, a hundred knights came out of the door hole, and Wang Fuchen, headed by him, was dressed in civilian clothes, and he dismounted with a smile and greeted him: "The day before yesterday, I received news that Mr. was coming, and Wang Mou missed the welcome, forgive your sins." He glanced at Lan Jinshu and continued: "This is not the place to talk, please Mr. go into the city and say that a certain has prepared a banquet, please." ”

Wang Fuchen made a hand of invitation Lan Jinshu bowed slightly, this is not a place to set friendship, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, looking at Wang Fuchen's attitude, he was somewhat sure of this time.

Lan Shu then immediately got into the carriage, with the coachman's urging, the carriage began to slowly enter the city, hundreds of knights followed Wang Jizhen on the horse, a sound of horse neighing, escorting the carriage also began to enter the city. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Wang Fuchen obeys the order." _ Jin Shu entered the Admiral's Yamen. When Wang Fuchen retreated, everyone was dismissed. In the living room in the open field. Lan Jinshu is not wordy. He took out a decree from his bosom.

Wang Fuchen hesitated for a moment. Then he lifted his robe and knelt down.

"Fengtian carries the emperor. The edict said: The blood of the Han people in the world is one. Branches of the same qi. That is, the auxiliary ministers of the king are the king of Pingliang, the governor of the Pingliang army, and give a thousand taels of silver. I don't have much to say. Wang Qing went to comprehend. Chin this. This decree is very brief. But the content is down-to-earth. Directly crowned king. and let him still lead the army. It's a great honor. Zhu Jun is not an idiot. Naturally, he understands how crucial it is to win over Wang Fuchen for the whole battle. As long as Wang Fuchen is willing to surrender. Of course, Zhu Jun will not be stingy with titles and rewards.

Wang Fuchen did not accept the order. Raising his eyes, he looked at Lan Jinshu: "Wait." Wang heard that the imperial court had changed the military system. These soldiers and horses in Pingliang City are all old brothers of Wang. Wang dared to ask. If it is after Wang Mou's enlightenment. Do you want to keep the establishment? ”

Lan Jinshu was not angry. Before leaving, the emperor once said. For Wang Fuchen. What I'm most afraid of is not that he talks about conditions. As long as he is willing to take the order. You can say yes to anything first. The more he talks about the conditions. The more it shows that he surrendered sincerely.

"This... The emperor once said. Lord Wang can be a special case. Now the war is imminent. Presumably, Lord Wang also understands the current situation. As long as Lord Wang is willing to return to Ming. It's the credit of heaven and earth. ”

Wang Fuchen nodded his head in a proper manner: "Thank you, Lord Longen, and you will definitely live up to the emperor's trust." ”

Lan Jinshu immediately helped Wang Fuchen up with a smile: "King Pingliang is really a person who understands the general situation, and from then on, we will be ministers in the same palace."

Wang Fuchen also smiled and followed Lan Jinshu's hand: "Wang is really ashamed, as a Han Chinese, but he is willing to be an eagle dog for the Manchurians, and now he is enlightened, I don't know how many big mistakes have been made, if it weren't for the emperor's understanding, Wang really doesn't know how to behave." ”

"King Pingliang is still afraid that he won't find the opportunity to make meritorious contributions?" Lan Jinshu looked at Wang Fuchen with a smile and said with a pun.

"Exactly, Wang has now blocked Pingliang City, this Pingliang City is built on both sides of the mountain, if you want to enter the Central Plains from here, you have to enter the city, Gansu Governor Daniel Zhang's 30,000 Long right cavalry is outside the city, with Wang Mou, will never let them enter Xi'an."

"That's good, with the words of King Pingliang, the lower officials will rest assured, as long as the Northwest Army does not participate in the war, the day when my Ming Wang's division is in the north can be waited, and the credit of Pingliang Wang Shan can be left in history."

The two of them chatted for a while, Lan Jinshu is in a very good mood now, he didn't expect things to go so smoothly, the Pingliang cavalry reversed, then the Longyou cavalry didn't think about participating in the battle, the strength of the Manchurians was weakened by at least thirty percent, and the emperor's strategy of recovering Guanzhong was probably nine out of ten.

"Lord Lan, please, Wang has set up a banquet to suppress the adults."

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Under Pingliang City, Daniel Zhang, who had been waiting for two days, finally lost his patience, the emperor's will was very clear, the governors of each province must lead their troops to Henan to assemble, postpone the punishment for the crime of resisting the will, now Daniel Zhang has not much time, he sent a team of envoys to ask to enter the city, but the defenders of the west city gate refused, and Wang Fuchen's people did not want to see him at all.

Daniel Zhang finally broke out, but the Liangcheng city is tall and wide, the Longyou army is all cavalry, for this strong city, there is really no way at all, Daniel Zhang personally shouted a few words under the city, and then a team of archers suddenly appeared on the female wall at the head of the city, and there was a burst of random shooting towards the city, fortunately, Daniel Zhang quickly pulled the horse and turned the horse's head and left, otherwise he might not be shot into a hedgehog.

The king is reversed! Daniel Zhang only woke up today.

Daniel Zhang is not a vegetarian, he has experienced hundreds of battles in his life, Kefu County is fifty, and his reputation is far and wide. In the early years, the right foot was hit by a arrow, injured to the bone and could not walk, and sat in a sedan chair to command the battle, charging ahead, where was still willing to show weakness, and immediately mobilized a large army to prepare to attack the city, and on the other side, he sent a letter to the direction of Gansu, asking people to mobilize artillery, and for a time, the entire northwest war was cloudy and very nervous.

And Wang Fuchen Lan Jinshu leisurely came to the head of the city of Xicheng hand in hand, looked at the camp built by the mountains a few miles outside the city, Lan Jinshu stayed in Pingliang City for two days, when he heard that the defenders of Xicheng shot arrows at Daniel Zhang, the governor of Gansu under the city, he was naturally very happy, after all, Wang Fuchen is not without the possibility of false surrender, but now Wang Fuchen has turned against Daniel Zhang, and all the worries in his heart are naturally gone, looking at the Longyou army under the city with interest, and pointing fingers with Wang Fuchen.

Wang Fuchen looked at the city intently: "Daniel Zhang is a rare tiger general, although Pingliang City is strong, but still be careful, Lord Lan, Wang is here to promise to hold Daniel Zhang for His Majesty for three months, after three months, how about asking the imperial court to send reinforcements?" ”

Lan Jinshu calculated carefully in his heart, three months later, the battle in the Central Plains may have come to an end, as long as the 70,000 cavalry in the northwest do not participate in the war, the Ming Xiongshi Beiding will naturally have no problem, and hurriedly responded: "Then, there is King Lao Pingliang." ”

Wang Fuchen pointed to the city: "I see that the Longyou army under the city did not attack the city, presumably they planned to transport artillery from Gansu to attack the city, last year the Qing court cast a batch of artillery, divided into various armies, among which Daniel Zhang asked a hundred for the reason that the Dzungar Department appeared in the northwest direction, if the artillery is fired in unison, I am afraid that the wall of this Pingliang City cannot be stopped, my lord, can you ask the emperor for Wang to ask a batch of artillery to suppress the Longyou army." ”

Lan Jinshu nodded, what Wang Fuchen said was reasonable, and naturally there was no reason why he should not be: "This is natural, tomorrow the officials will go east, and ask the emperor to ask for a batch of artillery, rest assured, when it comes to artillery, how can the Tartars be my opponent of the Ming Dynasty." ”

The corners of Wang Fuchen's mouth overflowed with a faint invisible smile: "Then, there is Master Lao." ”

"Don't dare."

The Northwest is the straw that determines the outcome of the battle, so I wrote a little more, and everyone can know in the future that the success or failure of the whole battle depends entirely on the Northwest Army, well, you won't feel annoyed, today my friend came back from Beijing, went to drink some wine, pitiful, there is still a chapter without a code.
