"Piercing Monkey, has Luo Ru just left?"

Liu Zongmin asked one of his generals.

The general held a piece of chicken leg in one hand and a palace maid in the other, and said loudly: "The donkey begging for a son has not left yet!" Big brother, he only has 2,000 people, no, brother, I'll take someone to rob it directly! ”

All the henchmen echoed one after another, and a general scolded loudly: "Big brother, King Chuang is gone, so Cao Cao is still there with a chicken feather as an arrow!" Fucking give him face! ”

Another henchman also chimed in, saying: "Yes, he was chased by the official army back then, if it wasn't for our brother to take him in, he would have gone to see the king of Hades a long time ago, would he still have the opportunity to show his face to his brothers here?" ”

Liu Zongmin's face was gloomy and uncertain, he wanted to do it a little, but he didn't make up his mind, after all, Luo Rucai protected Chen Yuanyuan is an order from King Chuang, and he has now delayed the order given by King Chuang to leave Beijing to fight Jianghuai for more than ten days, and then disobeyed the order to rob Chen Yuanyuan, and sent troops to beat his own people, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain to King Chuang.

"Mr. Chen, what do you think?"

Liu Zongmin asked an old man sitting on his right hand, he turned out to be Chen Yan, the first assistant of Emperor Chongzhen's cabinet, and when King Chuang's army arrived in Beijing, he immediately surrendered in Kaicheng, but he didn't expect that this would actually take refuge in Liu Zongmin and become his military advisor.

Chen Yan repeatedly wisped his beard and said: "The general's intentions are old and understandable, but this Luo Ru is the general personally ordered by His Majesty, and it would be unwise to directly clash with him." ”

Liu Zongmin sighed and said, "Could it be that General Ben just watched this great beauty, but couldn't kiss Fang Ze?" ”

Chen Yan said with a smile: "No, if you can't fight the enemy, the general can outwit it." ”

Liu Zongmin suddenly became interested and said, "Oh, Ji will be released?" Please sir advise me! ”

Chen Yan thought about it, pretended to smile mysteriously: "Mountain people have their own clever plans, don't be in a hurry, wait for the opportunity, soon the general will be able to taste what he wants!" ”

At this time, the sergeant guarding the door outside the hall entered the hall and reported: "General, Marshal Li Yan brought his wife and red lady to ask to see!" ”

Liu Zongmin said angrily to the sergeant: "What are they doing? Missing! ”

Chen Yan hurriedly laughed and said: "General, the time has come for the old man to say, and it is not impossible for the general to see Li Yan!" ”

Liu Zongmin's face was full of suspicion, and he said to the sergeant: "Call them in!" ”

Li Yan and the others entered the hall angrily, and the red lady was even more hot-tempered, and when she saw the situation in the hall, she was immediately angry: "Liu Zongmin, what do you mean by this?" Outside, the capital has become a mess, are you still in the mood to eat, drink and have fun here? ”

Liu Zongmin was so angry that his nose was crooked, and he said, "Presumptuous! What does General Ben do, and when will it be your turn to be in charge of a woman's family? ”

Li Yan hurriedly grabbed the red lady, turned his head and said coldly to Liu Zongmin: "General Liu, Madame has a bad temper, please forgive me, but now you neither carry out Your Majesty's military orders to go south, nor help us defend the capital, Li wants to know, General Liu, what are you going to do?" ”

Liu Zongmin snorted coldly and ignored it directly.

Chen Yan on the side smiled and said: "General Li, madam, don't be in a hurry, listen to the old man slowly!" General Liu is not not not carrying out His Majesty's military orders, but the soldiers have been fighting for many years, sleeping in the open all year round, and now they are going to expedition to the south, this lonely army is going south, I am afraid that there will be countless casualties at that time, General Liu is sympathetic to his subordinates, so he let them rest in the capital for a while, there are thousands of miles in the south to face the rivers and mountains, this expedition, I am afraid that there is no ten years can not be attacked, and why rush for a while? ”

Sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy, and his words are reasonable, and Li Yan and his wife can't refute it.

Li Zongmin hurriedly added: "Yes, the general will not be subject to the orders of the foreign monarch, and this general was ordered to march south, as for how to march south, this general has his own arrangements, and there is no need for Generalissimo Li to worry." ”

Li Yan was stunned and said depressedly: "Okay, this matter is not something that Li can manage, but since you are still in the capital, General, now the capital is short of food, and the people are hungry!" Chaos, how can the general sit idly by? ”

Chen Yan took over the topic again and said: "This matter is not General Liu's ignorance, now Marshal Du has 50,000 new troops, and there are only more than 30,000 people under our General Liu's command, not to mention that His Majesty handed over the defense of the capital to the marshal, although General Liu sits in the palace Although it is His Majesty's favor, if he rashly interferes in the defense of the capital, it is inevitable that there will be rats who will join General Liu in front of His Majesty. ”

The red lady can't listen to it anymore, this Chen Yan's words are angry, he said that he has 50,000 people under his command and needs help from others, isn't that clearly saying that Li Yan is useless?

So he scolded angrily: "Liu Zongmin, you will shirk it, our Beida battalion is all new soldiers, and we don't even have weapons, there are only more than 2,000 veterans, and now there are many new soldiers participating in the violence!" Chaos, how to govern such a large capital? Don't you think about it for Dashun Jiangshan, and you are so ruthless that you don't send a single soldier? ”

Liu Zongmin was a little weak and didn't dare to answer.

Chen Yan smiled again: "Madam, the reason why our General Liu didn't make a move, just now the old man has already explained it to you, but since the lady has said everything about this, everyone is a minister in the same court, and the old man will come up with an idea for the lady, and now in this capital, in addition to our general, there is also a general of Dashun, and the lady can find him to send troops to help!" ”

The red lady was full of suspicion and asked, "Who are you talking about?" ”

Chen Yan laughed and said: "Naturally, it is Cao Cao Luo Rucai, a general known as the righteous man, he is now stationed in the Wu Mansion in Xicheng, and the two of you will be able to get what you want if you go to him for help." ”

Li Yan thought about it, although this Chen Yan was cunning, what he said was not unreasonable, Cao Cao had an excellent reputation in the righteous army, and he was righteous, if he found the door himself, he would definitely help, saving him from dealing with this coquettish Liu Zongmin.

The two hurriedly said goodbye and left.

As soon as the two of them left, Liu Zongmin laughed and said: "Old Chen's tricks are high, so he will send Li Yan away, so that he will not be noisy in Lao Tzu's ears all day long, and he will be transferred away from Cao Cao's house, it is like killing two birds with one stone!" ”

That's right, when it comes to playing this kind of conspiracy, it is naturally none other than those ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and this is how the Ming Dynasty was played to death by them.

……

Yang Xin left thirty soldiers, led by Daniel Zhang, to guard the temple, including the twenty musketeers who had participated in military training, and the remaining ten were also equipped with the Fan family guards who had been killed earlier, and were no longer homeless people with wooden sticks.

This is almost all of Yang Xin's belongings at the moment.

In this battle, four people were killed, one was seriously wounded, and three were lightly wounded, which can be described as heavy losses, Yang Xin led the rest of the people to carry the corpses and wounded back to the barracks.

In the barracks, I saw that they went to fifty people, but only more than ten returned, and they carried a few corpses, and at first they thought they were defeated.

Yang Xin could only say vaguely, there were still thirty people who did not come back, he won the battle, he didn't dare to tell the truth, and hurriedly beckoned his henchmen to enter the house to discuss secretly.

Including Uncle Tian, Aunt Chen, Zhang's family, princess, Carpenter Chen, and other seven or eight military centers, the rest of the guards did not come back, so they couldn't attend the meeting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have made a fortune, we have made a fortune! From now on, each of you is rich! ”

Yang Xin has always been calm, but at this time, he was extremely excited, which made everyone start to get excited.
