Chapter 147: The Decision of the Imperial Court
Li Biao, under the leadership of Ma Youcai, came to a restaurant.
Due to the early hours, there were not many guests, only a table of three people sitting around.
I only heard one person say: "Brother Du, I heard that you Qian Zong went to the barracks today, it's okay if you don't go back, right?" โ
"Don't worry, my Lao Du has been born and died for so many years, what can a little hairy child do to me? It's really unfortunate to think about it, and you have to be managed by a little hairy child. โ
As soon as Li Biao came in, he was furious, and shouted angrily: "Bold Du Dabao, ignoring military regulations, leaving the barracks without permission, and despising the superiors, the general has an order to arrest Du Dabao and return to the camp to correct military law." โ
went up to two guards and directly pressed Du Dabao on the table.
Du Dabao struggled and shouted: "Do you let go of me, dare to arrest Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will not let you go." โ
A guard swung the hilt of the knife and smashed it on Du Dabao's mouth, making him obediently close his mouth, and then tied it up directly.
The two people at the same table got up to stop: "Who are you, let people go quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being rude." โ
Several guards stepped forward and slashed their knives in front of the two.
"The general has an order, dare to resist, block, kill, I hope you think clearly before you start."
Looking at the bright steel knife, the two sat back obediently.
Li Biao waved his hand and escorted Du Dabao out of the restaurant.
Ma Youcai didn't speak from beginning to end, silently following behind Li Biao.
Through this incident, he has already seen that his general is a very strong person, and the guards around him are all elite soldiers, and the general's orders are unconditionally implemented.
"Devouring the Starry Sky: Signing in to Become a God"
At a young age, he parachuted directly into the air to be the president of Qian, there must be someone above, and I don't know if it's good to get along?
Everyone quickly returned to the barracks and escorted Du Dabao to Jia Cong.
Looking at Du Dabao kneeling in front of him, Jia Cong waved his hand and let people be escorted to the school field.
For this kind of person who doesn't know the times, Jia Cong is too lazy to waste saliva.
Gathering 500 cavalry to gather on the school field, Jia Cong shouted loudly: "Du Dabao, disobey military law, leave the camp without permission, despise the officials, and deserve punishment for crimes, come, cut him down for me, to correct military regulations." โ
Two guards stepped forward and pressed Du Dabao to the ground, this is really going to cut people.
Du Dabao was really scared this time, and begged for mercy loudly: "The general spares his life, his subordinates know that he is wrong, ask the general to go around me once, and I won't dare to do it again." โ
Ma Youcai arched his hand and said: "General, although Du Dabao is at fault, he is brave in battle and has made many achievements, this time it is also a momentary lake, please show mercy to the general's subordinates and spare his life." โ
Zhu Dachang, Zhang Xiaowu, and Lin Feng also stepped forward to intercede together.
"Ask the general to be merciful and spare him this time."
Jia Cong didn't expect that this guy's popularity was not bad, and several people actually interceded for him together.
When he first arrived, he naturally couldn't offend everyone, so since they all pleaded for him, let's spare him once.
"You can intercede for him together, it seems that this person still has merit, I will give you a face, spare his life, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is unforgivable, come, beat eighty military sticks to set an example."
Everyone bowed their hands together and said, "Thank you for the kindness of the general." โ
Du Dabao escaped death, picked up a day's life, and hurriedly kowtowed and thanked: "Thank you for the kindness of the general, this time it is a subordinate to Hutu, and I will never dare to do it again." โ
The soldiers stepped forward and pulled him aside, crackling and beating him with eighty sticks, and it was estimated that he would have to lie down for ten days and a half before he could get up.
Jia Cong glanced at these soldiers under his command and shouted loudly: "From today on, you are my soldiers, I don't have much to say, only one sentence, the military order is like a mountain, and those who violate the order will be beheaded."
Starting tomorrow, train all day, train in the morning in physical fitness and riding, and in the afternoon in confrontation training, sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime, I hope you can come back alive every time you go to the battlefield. โ
Ma Youcai said worriedly: "General, training all day, the military food is not enough, the current military food can only keep everyone from going hungry, if you increase the amount of training, it will not be enough." โ
Jia Cong frowned when he heard this: "How much military salary and how much military food can you get in a month?" โ
Zhu Dachang said: "Back to the general, we can get sixty percent." โ
The cavalry only received sixty percent of the salary, and these people were really dark enough.
However, this Dachu official is like this from top to bottom, and he can't manage it himself, so it seems that he can only pay out of his own pocket.
"I will find a way to deal with the military rations, so that everyone will not go hungry, you have all paid attention to the training for me, and someone will come in a few days to take you to train."
"The last general obeys!"
Jia Cong returned to the big tent and arranged for a team of personal soldiers to return to Black Mountain Village.
The recruits in Montenegro Village have also been training for three months, and they already have the appearance of some soldiers, so Zhang Dakui led a hundred recruits to the Quang Ninh military camp and was responsible for leading everyone to train together.
In addition, to transport a batch of grain from Heishan Village to Quang Ninh, his 200 personal soldiers need to be raised by themselves, and then supplement a part of it to those 500 subordinates, at least so that people can have enough food to have the strength to train.
A day later, Zhang Dakui rushed to the military camp in Quang Ninh with a hundred recruits and a thousand stone of grain.
He took over the training of the entire cavalry battalion and was responsible for the training of 500 cavalry and 200 escorts.
This cavalry battalion not only had cavalry, but also horsemen and miscellaneous servants who specialized in raising war horses.
Jia Cong took this opportunity to transfer the Black Mountain Hunting Team and the Militia Guards to the barracks as horsemen and handymen, and was specifically responsible for taking care of the war horses of the Guards, and training with the team in his spare time.
In this way, Jia Cong has nearly 900 combatable soldiers in his hands.
It is said that there are people above who are easy to do, and there is He Shiyuan, the chief soldier, who is taking care of it above.
is even more blind to his own behavior, and when others see this, no one meddles.
He Shiyuan thought that Jia Cong was a child, and he came to the barracks just to have fun and freshness, and when he had had enough, he naturally left.
He only needs to be responsible for this period of time not to let him have an accident and ensure his safety, as for the rest, let him toss.
In addition to training with everyone, Jia Cong also often went to the governor's palace and met some other generals.
He is rich and not stingy, so he often invites these generals to drink a little wine together, and occasionally gives some small gifts, and gradually mingles with the generals of Quang Ninh.
Although it may not be a deep friendship, it is very harmonious on the surface, and it is much more convenient to do things.
ยทยทยทยทยทยท
At this time, Jia Cong's twists and turns had also reached the hands of Emperor Longqing.
Looking at the folds in his hand, Emperor Longqing was a little speechless, what kind of luck is this kid?
This Sanbeile Mang Gurtai, I have also heard of it, brave and good at fighting, he is a member of the barbarian clan, and the generals who also fought Dachu a few years ago hugged their heads and had a headache.
Was killed by this kid so easily?
Is the generals of Da Chu too incompetent? Or is this kid too powerful?
If this matter is true, there will inevitably be a big war between the Mongolian Khalkha and the barbarians, and the strength of both sides will be greatly damaged at that time, which will be too beneficial to Da Chu, and this kid has really made a great contribution.
This kid is really too bold, he dares to run to the Mongolian steppe, the key is that the idea behind this is too bold.
It's really hard to make a decision on this matter, most of the military power is in the hands of his father, and he still needs to speak.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh, it's been ten years, and the emperor has interfered in government affairs from time to time, making himself an emperor with no prestige at all.
It is said that there are no two days on this day, there are no two masters in the country, and these two days are hanging in the sky, when is it a head.
Emperor Longqing came to the Taiji Palace with the fold and saluted to the Emperor Taishang who was sitting in the main hall.
"The son visits his father and wishes him good health."
The Emperor nodded and said, "Why did the emperor come over, but is there something?" โ
"Back to my father's words, my son's ministers have something that I can't make up my mind, so I came to my father to get an idea."
stepped forward and handed the fold in his hand to the Emperor.
The Emperor Taishang was also a little surprised after reading the recital.
Although he has taken a back seat in recent years, he still controls more than half of the military power, and he is also well aware of the situation between the DPRK and China and the movements of Shenjing City.
Jia Cong, this kid, has heard of it, and the Linhe tribute wine he likes to drink is made up by this kid.
I heard that he has a flexible mind, likes to tinker with some strange things, and dedicates several techniques to the emperor, making a great contribution to the country.
Unexpectedly, this time he ran to the grassland, destroyed the barbarian mission by mistake, and killed one of the sons of the old slave.
"If this matter is true, it is a great thing for my Da Chu, let the embroidered guards of Liaodong find out the truth first, and pay close attention to the movements of the barbarians.
If there is a big war, there will be movement on the barbarians' side, and as for whether to send troops or not, you can decide for yourself. โ
"Yes, Erchen will send the embroidered guards to investigate, and Erchen will retire."
After returning to the imperial study, Emperor Longqing asked Dai Quan to inform the embroidered guards of Liaodong to investigate the movements of the barbarians.
It's never too late to make a decision when you have the exact news.
I waited for more than half a month, and the news from Liaodong came one after another.
"Back to the master, there is news from the embroidered guards in Liaodong that the barbarians are gathering a large army, and the specific movements are unknown."
A day later, news came.
"Master, it has been found out that the old slave's son Mang Gurtai died on the Khalkha steppe together with the barbarian mission, and the old slave was furious, and he has ordered an army to recruit Khalkha, and the army is being assembled."
Emperor Longqing suddenly showed a smile on his face when he heard this, Jia Cong, this little guy really didn't lie to himself, this time he made a great contribution, he was really his own blessing!
"Dai Quan, go and invite a few cabinet elders, and then invite Li Guanglu, the secretary of the Ministry of War."
"The old slave obeys!"
Dai Quan agreed, exited the imperial study, went to invite a few elders, and arranged a little eunuch to inform the military department.
After a short time, everyone came to the imperial study together.
"Ministers knock to see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live."
Emperor Longqing waved his hand and said, "Zhongqing, let's show the fold to all the adults first." โ
Dai Quan gave Jia Cong's share to Shoufu Hu Yong.
Hu Yong read it quietly, passed the excerpt, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, this little guy can really toss, and he actually ran to the grassland.
Waiting for everyone to read it, Emperor Longqing asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of this performance, and what do you think?" โ
Liu Jin stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has some doubts, I have also seen Jia Cong, he is only twelve years old this year, even if he takes an escort, can he really wipe out all a hundred barbarian soldiers?" โ
Li Guanglu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, also bowed his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the minister also received Jia Cong's report, but he didn't distinguish the truth for a while, and he didn't dare to come to disturb the emperor."
That Mang Gurtai is a barbarian warrior, a person who gives me countless Great Chu soldiers a headache, was actually killed by an arrow, this sounds a bit incredible, I also asked Liaodong's subordinates to inquire, but there is no definite news yet. โ
Hu Yong said: "Your Majesty, although the minister doesn't know Jia Cong very well, he still thinks that it is impossible for him to deceive the emperor, this kind of thing can't be hidden at all, as long as you ask, you can know the truth or falsehood."
If things really happen as he expected, it will really be a good thing for me Da Chu, as for the following suggestions, some of them are too risky, and they have to be carefully considered. โ
Emperor Longqing said: "The news has been confirmed, this matter is true, the old slave can not hide the pain of losing his son, he has ordered the conquest of the Khalkha steppe, and he is already gathering troops and horses."
Today I want to discuss with you, are we going to take advantage of the great war between the two sides to send troops to recapture Fushun, Tieling, Kaiyuan and other places? โ
Second assistant Yang Huai said: "Your Majesty, I don't know what the situation is now, don't make a decision rashly, in case the old slave doesn't lose much, and then go back to deal with us, it will be more than worth the loss." โ
Li Rong said: "Your Majesty, if our soldiers are sure, when the two of them are inseparable, we can raid and take these places, if we are not sure, it is better to be conservative." โ
There is some truth in this, in the past, his own soldiers were defeated and retreated by the old slaves, otherwise Fushun and other places would not have been lost.
This matter still depends on the military, and it will be up to the military to see if it has the ability.
"Li Aiqing, what do you think of the military department, and are you sure that you will recapture Fushun and other places?"
Others don't know, as the secretary of the military department, Li Guanglu is clear about the situation in Liaodong, and the soldiers who can really fight are no more than thirty percent, in this case, he really doesn't dare to make a guarantee, so he can only throw this pot out.
"Back to Your Majesty, Khalkha and the old slave have not really fought yet, and the final result is even more unpredictable, so let's wait for them to fight, see the specific situation, and we will not be too late to make a decision."
Although it sounded very reasonable, Emperor Longqing was not satisfied with this answer.
This time, the emperor finally relented and let himself make this decision, depending on the meaning of these people, none of them are willing to fight, they are all based on safety, and if they can not fight, they will not fight.
In fact, Emperor Longqing is not like this, he doesn't care about one more city or one less city.
What he cares about is his own rights, how to be more stable, and what he cares about is when the Emperor Taishang can completely let go and let himself completely control the country.
Emperor Longqing looked at Hu Yong and asked, "Hu Aiqing, how do you think this matter should be decided?" โ
Hu Yong arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, although this matter is an opportunity for us, we also have to see how far they can fight, if their losses are too small, we still have to stay put." โ
Seeing that Hu Yong also said this, Emperor Longqing could only admit it.
"Li Aiqing, give an order to Liaodong, let them always pay attention to the movements of the two sides, and wait for the opportunity to move according to the actual situation. By the way, where is that kid Jia Cong now? โ
"Back to Your Majesty, Jia Cong has joined the Guangning Army and served as a thousand-year-old general."
