Chapter 509: Three Days Later, The Night of the Full Moon

"How did His Highness find out?" Xu Guangqi was startled at first, and then laughed out loud like a true genius.

The corners of Chongzhen's mouth outlined a faint arc, and he waited for him to finish laughing before he said, "Why is Lord Xu laughing?" ”

Xu Guangqi shook his sleeves and robe and suddenly shook it to the end, panicked and hurriedly returned the salute, and said secretly: "This guy is worthy of being the first person in the Ming Dynasty to contact Western thought, and his behavior is very unexpected. ”

The four looked at each other, knowing each other's hearts, and almost burst into a long series of laughter.

"His Royal Highness King Xin really lives up to his name, and the edge between his words will be revealed. The sword of my Ming Dynasty is slightly sluggish due to the long-term battle in all directions, and there should be a person like His Royal Highness who holds a long sword and the sword goes sideways, so that the world knows that this sharp sword of Huaxia can not only point to the eight directions, thirst for the blood of the Huns, but also kill all the ghosts and ghosts. ”

Xu Guangqi was old and serious, and took the lead in putting away the thoughts of mutual temptation, on the surface he just sighed, but in his heart he openly and honestly expressed his support for Chongzhen, the latter was in the military and politics, how could he not know?

Chongzhen suddenly remembered the dying words of his master Xu Wei - you carried this bow and a sword, and traveled all the way south and west from this forest in the extreme northeast where the Han people had not arrived for a long time! Kill Jiannu, kill thieves, and clear all the hardships and obstacles in this world that are vainly trying to sink my Chinese civilization!

Compared with Xu Guangqi's secret statement and imagination, it is actually the same.

Xu Wenchang's anti-Japanese experience in the southeast and northeast made him even more insightful.

Xu Guangqi has lived in the temple for a long time, and has studied every Mingjin battle after the Battle of Salhu, and his vision is like a torch.

Both believe that when the world is bright, there is a person who holds a sharp blade and points his sword in all directions.

Jiannu is coming, kill!

The Tatars are coming, kill!

Xiyi is coming, kill!

As for Dongying? Those dwarves have been killed by Qi Jiguang and Li Rusong, and in a few hundred years, they can't give birth to the dog's mind to get involved in the Ming Dynasty, even if it is the vassal state of the Ruqin Daming - North Korea, he doesn't dare!

History and reality, at this moment, Xu Guangqi's figure is set off extraordinarily tall, and he really digs it to the end, and says sincerely: "Please also ask Lord Xu to teach me!" It's time for your idle vacation to come to an end! ”

"Vacation? His Royal Highness made witty words, and the old man regretted that he only abandoned his previous suspicions today and came to meet His Highness. ”

"Oh? Lord Xu and I don't know each other, so how can you say that you have a suspicion? ”

Xu Guangqi twisted his beard and chuckled: "How can Your Highness not know what the old decay is referring to? ”

Chong Zhense said: "The eunuch faction has become a thing of the past, and Donglin cannot be a monopoly. Today's court does not dare to say that the officials are clear and clear, but when the national disaster is at the head, the sharp blade is on the neck, and even those who are lazy have been whipped. ”

Xu Guangqi looked at Chongzhen and said, "So what about after this battle?" ”

Chongzhen said: "Lord Xu's eyes are like a torch, from the king of this king at the expense of immeasurable losses, but also to implement the plan of strengthening the wall and clearing the wilderness, when you know what this king wants, it is not as simple as driving Jiannu back to the outside of the pass." ”

Xu Guangqi nodded and said, "Your Highness has such determination, it is not difficult to rectify the court!" ”

Chongzhen said: "Lord Xu is wrong, it is a hundred times more difficult to get rid of the danger of scabies than to erase the danger of scabies!" ”

Xu Guangqi took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness is really ambitious!" Jiannu plagued Liaodong and ravaged Hebei Beijing, and in the eyes of His Royal Highness, he was only at risk of scabies!

The old man really didn't dare to think deeply, after the fall of the eunuch faction and the dominance of the Donglin family were contained, how fierce would the open and secret battles in the court be? Overturning the Society? Not really! ”

Chongzhen didn't answer him directly, but said with a light smile: "This king doesn't want to wait until the thieves and soldiers are coming to the city, and then he beat his chest and shout - the ministers misunderstand me!" Orβ€”I am not the king of the country, but the ministers of the country! ”

The last line of defense in Xu Guangqi's resolute heart was finally breached, and after his complexion changed several times, the gray goatee stabilized, and he said to the end: "Don't enter the ears of others when you talk before!" ”

Chongzhen laughed and said, "With this king escorting Lord Xu, what are you afraid of?" ”

Xu Guangqi was finally aroused by the ambition of being old and strong, and laughed heroically: "The old man's body will be handed over to His Royal Highness, but it is useful, and the old man will not refuse!" It is also said that the old man's scumbags are running and studying day and night in order to restrain the slaves, and it makes no sense that the old master is enjoying his old age in peace! ”

Chongzhen squinted at him and said, "Lord Xu also wants to join the Xiangshan Firearms Research Center?" ”

"Research center?"

Xu Guangqi's sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and before he had time to digest it, he heard Chongzhen and said: "Dream you!" Your scoundrel has long since come out of the blue, and your old theory of firearms has long since failed to keep up with this era! This king has a more important task entrusted to you, and from now on, the official will be reinstated, study new crops, and fill the stomachs of the people of the world, including this king! ”

When the kind-faced Xu Guangqi heard this, he immediately bared his teeth and said, "This task is heavy!" Dare to ask King Xin, is the old man still responsible for filling Jiannu's belly? ”

Gu Chongzhen laughed and said, "If it is my subject, it naturally needs to be fed. ”

Xu Guangqi retracted his expression and said solemnly: "Your Highness, has you forgotten the many aids that the Ming Dynasty gave to Jiannu in the past?" At that time, every Jurchen person was proud to take the name 'Li Shancheng', which means kindness and honesty, but what about looking back? After a long time in the mountains, the domestic pig becomes a wild boar with fangs! ”

Xu Guangqi said as he spoke, probably remembering several battles with the Ming Dynasty after the slave chieftain rebelled against the Ming Dynasty.

As the most senior and oldest firearms expert in the Ming Dynasty, Xu Guangqi has personally observed many battles.

Thinking of the tragic losses of the Ming army in those battles, hundreds of thousands of elite troops fell in batches in pools of blood, even with Xu Guangqi's cultivation, he couldn't help beating his chest.

"The Eight Banners drove out the armored slaves as the vanguard, and the heavy armored soldiers wore chain mail inside, iron armor in the middle, and cotton armor on the outside, and followed closely behind, oppressing our Chinese army. The light cavalry continued to weave through the flanks of our army in a roundabout way until it collapsed......"

As he spoke, Xu Guangqi couldn't help but cry silently.

Chongzhen hurriedly comforted him and said, "Old Xu, don't worry, the firearms developed and produced by your apprentice have already made a qualitative breakthrough. Not only is the penetration extremely strong, the rate of fire has also increased greatly, and one of them can even fire continuously without interruption, but it is a pity that its technology is not enough to perfectly support its theory, it is in the experimental stage, and it has not yet been equipped with the whole army. ”

Xu Guangqi looked at Chongzhen and said, "Is what King Xin said true?" ”

Chongzhen smiled lightly: "The poor monk is a poor monk in his life, and he doesn't speak. ”

Xu Guangqi laughed and said, "In this case, the old man will take it upon himself to support the Jurchen nobles who are about to fall into famine by taking those snow peas that have sprouted green due to poor storage!" ”

"Snow peas don't sound good, so you might as well call them potatoes." Chongzhen felt that this old guy was simply bad to the bone, and looked at him with a slightly tilted gaze, and said, "Does Old Xu believe in God, Orthodoxy, or Protestantism?" ”

Xu Guangqi was shocked and said, "How could His Highness even know this? ”

Chongzhen laughed and said: "This king looks up to astronomy, looks down on geography, knows people in the middle, pinched his fingers, what does he not know?" ”

"Old decay admires." Xu Guangqi arched his hand, how neat his face was, how much disdain he had in his heart.

After a moment's deliberation and making sure that the goal he wanted had been achieved, he asked, "Your Highness?" When will the war start? ”

Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, hang him the Jurchen nobleman for a few days." ”

Seeing Chongzhen's lazy appearance of covering his mouth and yawning, Xu Guangqi once again had the urge to beat him, and forcibly held back his anger and said: "In case the Jiannu dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, does King Xin have a way to deal with it?" ”

Chongzhen glanced at him and said, "Master Xu thinks why didn't Jiannu jump off the wall earlier?" ”

Xu Guangqi was slightly stunned, and suddenly twisted his beard and laughed: "It seems that it is indeed the old man who despises King Xin, and I never thought that His Royal Highness would have such a city at a young age." Huangtaiji detoured Mongolia to invade the Ming Dynasty, and ravaged Hebei and Gyeonggi in more than a month, which shocked my Ming Dynasty, and this military achievement far exceeded that of his father.

However, His Royal Highness tried his best to oppose the public opinion of moving south, and sat in Beijing with the Holy Lord, and guarded the gate of the country in the north, giving me strong confidence in the army and the people. The multiple layouts of strong men with broken wrists made it difficult for Huang Taiji to raise more grain and grass even if he sent cavalry to plunder everywhere, which made his wishful thinking of feeding the war with war frustrated.

Jiannu's logistical supply line is very long, and it is facing the danger of being surrounded and intercepted by our army and civilians, so it will fall into a crisis of running out of food in ten days. Yes...... His Royal Highness is really far-sighted, and he admires it immensely. ”

Xu Guangqi said that he was going to the end again.

Chongzhen was tired of this pedantic red tape, stretched out a slender and strong hand to drag it, and said: "Okay, okay, don't be noisy here, do you want to be lazy?" Get back to work! ”

Xu Guangqi said angrily: "Your Highness, why did you humiliate the old man so much? ”

Chongzhen scolded: "Don't you just think that the commander of the light pole is not good? Now that you've got the team in place, you just need to take up your post and get to work. To tell you the truth, this team was used by this king, and it was cheap for you. ”

"Old minister, thank His Royal Highness the Regent!" Xu Guangqi's name for Chongzhen has changed again and again, which indicates the many demands in his heart. Chongzhen answered one by one, solved his doubts, and finally firmly lassoed the big animal with a rope.

"This big animal is very real, unlike Huang Zongxi, a young Confucian who can be whipped with glory and blueprints, but must give real benefits and feed with good forage!

However, it has been more than 260 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, how can I obtain this mere forage? After years of accumulation, the time has finally come, come on, big animals! ”

Looking at Xu Guangqi's back with a straight waist, Chongzhen rubbed his chin and smiled like a wolf.

His real surname was Huang, so he was a weasel stealing chickens.

"However, the Jiannu dog is menacing, intending to bite the master, and hopes that the battle will be decided more than our army! Three days later, when the moon is full, I will become a hungry wolf who roars alone, open my fangs, and grit and swallow all its glory! ”
