Luwangfu,

In the quiet courtyard, a person quietly looked at the secret report in his hand.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Zhu Zaichang put down the secret report with an expressionless face.

"King Lu" Hanamichi often stood behind him and said respectfully: "Master Hou, Ningxia has started an incident, and the news will arrive in Beijing in the near future." ”

"The imperial court will inevitably send troops to suppress it, and it will be a good time for the defense of the capital to be empty at that time."

Zhu Zaichang glanced back at him and said, "Do you know? ”

"Just today, the emperor summoned hundreds of officials to the court to discuss matters."

"What?" Hanamichi was often slightly stunned, his face full of surprise.

"Isn't this time of rest?"

"Yes......" Zhu Zaichang sighed faintly and said meaningfully: "You say, why did they enter the palace?" ”

Hanamichi's face immediately changed and became gloomy.

"Ningxia matter!"

Hanamichi blurted out in shock, looking shocked.

"How could the news reach the capital so quickly?"

Zhu Zaichang didn't speak, but just glanced at Hanamichi Chang with an indifferent expression.

He knew that his men couldn't wait.

It's not necessarily that he betrayed himself, but the temptation from the dragon's skill is too great.

They wanted him to sit in that seat more than they were.

Zhu Zaichang stood with his hands in his hands and said quietly: "But this matter is a foregone conclusion, even if the court learns in advance, it won't change anything." ”

"Wait, I believe there will be news from the DPRK and China soon."

Not a bad thing.

He also didn't want the Ningxia Rebellion to spread to all around, and when the Beijing incident was over, he would be free to completely quell the Ningxia Rebellion.

Things have come to such a point that he can no longer hesitate.

Even if he wanted to retreat, these people who followed him would not be willing.

……

As night falls,

In Fusi, Beizhen, it is still brightly lit.

The brocade guards were busy almost without touching the ground, and their faces were unprecedentedly solemn.

Lin Mang sat in the room, waiting for news from the court.

At this moment, the room was exceptionally silent.

The candle flame flickered gently.

A slender shadow was reflected.

At this moment, Tang Qi walked in from outside the hall and arched his hand: "My lord, there is news in the court." ”

"The DPRK and China sent the deputy commander-in-chief Li Yunfeng to lead the army to clear out the rebels."

"Mobilize 100,000 soldiers and horses from the Beijing camp to quell the rebellion."

Lin Mang's brows furrowed slightly.

I am afraid that this person alone will not be able to quell the rebellion at all.

At this time, Yuan Changqing walked in, looked at Lin Mang, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty has an order to let Jinyi Wei go with the army." ”

Lin Mang looked at Tang Qi and ordered: "Arrange two thousand households to lead the troops to Ningxia." ”

"Yes!"

Tang Qi bowed and quickly turned to leave.

Yuan Changqing looked at Lin Mang and said in surprise: "Why do you feel worried?" ”

Lin Mang stretched out his hand and tapped lightly on the table, and sighed, "According to the information sent back by the Jinyi Guard, there are people from the White Lotus Sect involved in this matter. ”

"This group of guys has disappeared since the last Huguang rebellion, and now they have suddenly reappeared, I'm afraid it's not that simple."

"The specific situation can only wait for news from Ningxia."

Now I only hope that Yan Jue and they can send the news back to Ningxia as soon as possible.

Yuan Changqing sighed: "It's just that the people of Ningxia have suffered." ”

When the war is together, it is the people who are most affected.

……

Nothing was said all night.

On the second day, the 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp began to assemble.

In addition to the 100,000 soldiers and horses in Beijing, the troops from Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Xuanfu were requisitioned at the same time, totaling 200,000 soldiers and horses.

Beizhen Fusi Jinyiwei went to Ningxia first.

However, the assembly of a large army is not an easy task.

Five days later,

The news of the Ningxia rebellion reached the capital.

For a time, the hearts of the people in the capital fluctuated, and there were many voices of discussion.

Ningxia Bibai proclaimed himself the king of Ningxia and quickly captured the forty-seven forts, with great momentum.

The Mongol tribes also took the opportunity to attack the border and capture many places.

Lin Mang looked at the latest secret report sent back by Feiying, his expression solemn.

Yan Jue has led the elite of the Zhenfu Division to enter Ningxia day and night.

But the war situation is far from optimistic.

The White Lotus Sect intervened this time, which changed the situation of the battle a lot.

The low-level disciples of the White Lotus Sect can be said to be pervasive, and in this rebellion, the generals from all over the country have suffered the losses of the White Lotus Sect.

Many of the generals are surrounded by people from the White Lotus Sect, and they can't be guarded against.

The White Lotus Sect even dispatched a large number of masters to implement the "decapitation tactic".

The army was leaderless, and the Mongol tribes attacked fiercely, resulting in a rout in the battle.

If not, it would not have been defeated so quickly.

At this moment, the vanguard soldiers and horses of Jingying and the two provinces, Xuanfu had just arrived in Ningxiawei.

Lin Mang put down the secret report, reached out and pinched his eyebrows, and leaned back on the chair.

……

The sixteenth year of Wanli, February.

The rebellion in Ningxia intensified, and the offensive of the imperial counterinsurgency army was blocked, losing 40,000 soldiers and horses.

The battle report came, and the whole dynasty was in an uproar!

In the eyes of many people in the court, this rebellion could be put down within a few days as long as the imperial army was dispatched, and there were not a few people who had such ideas.

In this quelling of the turmoil, many officials in the DPRK and the central government installed their own people into the army.

Many of the nobles' descendants and nephews are among them, and most of them are for the sake of mixing qualifications and making credit.

But this incident gave everyone a slap in the face.

Zhu Yijun was furious in the court and dismissed many officials.

Wu Yingdian,

Lin Mang stepped into it and saluted, "Your Majesty." ”

"Sit down."

Zhu Yijun sighed lightly, his face was full of sadness, and the whole person looked a lot thinner.

Ningxia is one of the nine border towns, and if Ningxia is in chaos, it will endanger the border.

"Ningxia's battle report has been received, right?"

Lin Mang bowed slightly.

"Rubbish!"

Zhu Yijun couldn't help but scold, and said coldly: "Hundreds of thousands of troops, fighting for two whole months!" ”

More than 200,000 people consume an astronomical amount of grain and grass every day.

This year, droughts and frequent floods throughout the country, and the imperial court's disaster relief have caused the treasury to be empty, and he has subsidized the military expenses for these two months from the inner treasury.

In a few more months, he is afraid that he will not even have the money to repair the mausoleum.

Zhu Yijun has already been upset and upset during this period of time because of the rebellion in Ningxia.

Zhu Yijun looked at Lin Mang and asked, "You have participated in the pacification of Huguang and Jiangxi, do you have any suggestions for Ningxia?" ”

The group of guys in the DPRK and China argued endlessly every day, but no one came up with a good suggestion.

Lin Mang arched his hand and said: "The minister doesn't know about military affairs, but he knows that if he wants to quell the chaos, he needs to have a good general." ”

Hearing this, Zhu Yijun nodded and sighed, "I have this intention. ”

"I have transferred the general soldier of Datong, Ma Gui, to Ningxia to quell the chaos."

Lin Mang got up and arched his hand: "The minister is brave and recommends one person." ”

As a Jinyi guard, saying this is actually arrogance, and it is inevitable that there will be a suspicion of collusion with the generals in the army.

But since Zhu Yijun asked, he was not arrogant.

"Who?" Zhu Yijun was surprised.

Lin Mang arched his hand and said: "When the minister was in Liaodong, I saw Li Chengliang's son, Li Rusong is brave and good at fighting, brave and strategic, and can take on heavy responsibilities. ”

Zhu Yijun pondered for a moment and said coldly: "Spread the message!" ”

"Transfer Li Rusong as the chief soldier of Ningxia, and Ma Gui as the deputy chief soldier to go to Ningxia to quell the rebellion."

"Requisition Datong, Xuanfu, and Zhejiang troops will go to Ningxia together."

Zhu Yijun is obviously clear about Li Rusong, and even he has always valued Li Rusong.

Zhu Yijun stood in front of the window with his hands in his hands, his expression was cold, and he said coldly: "Since 200,000 people can't quell the rebellion, then 300,000!" ”

"Four hundred thousand!"

"I don't believe it, I can't put down the rebellion in Ningxia!"

The celebrant and eunuch on the side bowed down.

Zhu Yijun looked back at Lin Mang, and said in a deep voice: "Lin Mang listens to the order!" ”

"Order Jinyi Wei to pacify Lin Mang as the supervisor of the army to quell the rebellion, but you can act cheaply, I promise you the right to cut first and then play!"

"Obey the order!"

As early as when he entered the palace, he had a guess.

After all, Ningxia is one of the important towns on the nine sides, and its geographical location is special.

The war lasted for more than two months, and if it continued to fight, the imperial court could not afford to spend it.

Zhu Yijun had never summoned himself before, and this time he suddenly summoned himself to the palace, which must be for the sake of Ningxia.

And Yuan Changqing is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and this mission can only be carried out by himself.

Zhu Yijun turned around, looked at Lin Mang, and said, "The Ordnance Supervision has developed twenty new artillery, and I will go to Ningxia this time and bring them with me." ”

When the original camp left, it did not carry these guns with it.

As the saying goes, when the cannon goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold!

Although these cannons are powerful, they are also extremely costly.

A cannon alone costs thousands of taels, plus cannonballs, more than an army of 50,000.

Zhu Yijun was completely reluctant.

But the war in Ningxia has not been settled for a long time, and Zhu Yijun has been completely angered.

……

As soon as Lin Mang returned to Beizhen Fusi, he went to Yuan Changqing's courtyard.

Yuan Changqing saw Lin Mang coming, put down the teacup, and asked, "Your Majesty should want to send you to Ningxia, right?" ”

Lin Mang bowed slightly, not surprised by this.

Yuan Changqing picked up the secret report on the table and handed it to Lin Mang, and said in a deep voice: "This is the secret report from Liaodong that has just been delivered. ”

"Liaodong secret report?" Lin Mang's expression moved slightly.

Stretched out his hand to take it, glanced at it casually, and his expression was slightly cold.

Yuan Changqing said in a deep voice: "The Savage Jurchen and the Haixi Jurchen Five Divisions have joined forces, and a total of 150,000 people have gone south with the Tuman, so it is really a good time. ”

"I'm afraid the Liaodong side has no time to draw troops."

If the three parties converge, it will become a flank attack, and the threat will be the capital.

Lin Mang put down the secret report, his eyes flickering.

"Lord Yuan, do you think the barbarians want to take advantage of the fire to rob, or do they have other plans?"

Yuan Changqing was slightly stunned, and said in surprise: "What do you mean?" ”

Lin Mang said softly: "The Jurchen incident had a clue as early as the Ningxia incident. ”

When Nikan Wailan sent a secret report, it was mentioned in this matter.

Yuan Changqing looked startled and said in surprise: "You mean they secretly have a union?" ”

"If that's the case, it seems that they have a lot of plans."

Lin Mang said in a deep voice: "This matter needs to be clarified as soon as possible, Your Majesty. ”

Yuan Changqing got up and said, "I'll enter the palace to face the saint." ”

……

"Your Excellency!"

Tang Qi walked into the hall.

Lin Mang pulled his cloak and said coldly: "Gather a thousand brocade guards and follow me to Ningxia to quell the rebellion." ”

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that he had to transport twenty new guns this time, he would have gone alone, and the speed would have been faster.

Soon, a thousand brocade guards were assembled on the martial arts training ground.

Silence!

The strong evil aura seemed to be condensed into substance.

With many colleagues going to Liaodong, everyone was already gearing up.

Lin Mang stepped into the middle and said softly: "Pixiu! ”

As soon as the words fell, a behemoth-like figure fell in the courtyard, exuding an incomparably fierce aura around it.

Today's Pixiu aura is getting deeper and deeper, and his body is four meters tall, but the strength of his physical body alone is enough to crush many Five Realm Grandmasters.

Lin Mang stretched out his hand and patted Pixiu, turned over and jumped up, and shouted, "Let's go!" ”

"Squeak~"

The door of the North Town Fuji slowly opened.

"Boom!"

On the streets, horses' hooves thundered.

Thousands of brocade-clothed guards galloped out of the city.

In many restaurants and tea shops, many people in the rivers and lakes are looking at this scene from afar.

Recently, the news of the Ningxia rebellion has reached the capital, and it has also caused great discussion in the rivers and lakes.

"Even that one went?"

In the restaurant, some people looked surprised.

"It seems that the war in Ningxia is not optimistic."

Someone laughed and said: "These are all matters of the imperial court, why should you and I worry." ”

"I heard that the White Lotus Sect has been making a lot of trouble over there recently, if this person goes, it is estimated that the White Lotus Sect will be miserable."

The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.

Lin Mang is now quite prestigious in the rivers and lakes.

But whoever offends this one seems to have no good end.

But some people sneered: "Ningxia rebelled, hundreds of thousands of troops have not been quelled, can he alone be able to quell the chaos." ”

Everyone looked at the person who spoke, looked at each other, and shook their heads and laughed.

Young people, arrogant and jealous, can be understood.

……

Luwangfu,

Inside the secret room.

Hanamichi Chang slowly pushed open the door of the secret room and said respectfully: "Master Hou, Lin Mang has left Beijing." ”

"There has been news from Liaodong that the soldiers and horses of Liaodong have been pinned down in Liaodong."

In the center of the secret room, Zhu Zaichang sat cross-legged on the ground, and around him sat a withered figure, resembling dry wood.

The crowd had long since lost their breath.

Hearing this, Zhu Zaichang slowly opened his eyes and said calmly: "Is there any news from the various factions in the rivers and lakes?" ”

Hanamichi Chang smiled and said softly: "Several factions have agreed that they will secretly enter Beijing soon." ”

"Many sects have also rushed to Beizhili."

"Now it's almost Shaolin's news."

Zhu Zaichang stood up and said coldly, "Wait a little longer." ”

"With our current strength, it is still too risky to revolt."

As a member of the royal family, he is well aware of the background of the royal family.

It's just that Yuan Changqing and Cao Huachun need two great masters to contain them.

……

Ningxia City,

General Military Office.

Bai Wanying sat at the bottom of the hall, her two snow-white feet swaying gently, and the bell on her feet and necks rang softly.

He sat on the top with a stomach, but at this moment there was no greed in his eyes, but it gave people a feeling like a tiger.

Bi Bai put down the secret report and played with the taste: "It is worthy of the White Lotus Sect, and I learned the news of the DPRK so quickly." ”

Bai Wanying chuckled lightly and said faintly: "Thank you for the compliment." ”

Bibai glanced at her, turned his head to look at the person on his left hand, and said in a deep voice, "This person is tired of the master." ”

"Amitabha."

"Don't worry, I will get rid of this person."

Sitting on one side is a monk with half of his body naked and holding a string of huge Buddhist beads.

This person is from the steppe tantra.

Bi Bai had already secretly planned something, and he didn't fully trust the White Lotus Sect.

In other words, he deliberately let the two fight, and did not want either to dominate.
