A lot of things are already in place before leaving.

On August 16 of the third year of the Apocalypse, Yang Chengying personally led his soldiers to leave Zhenyu City, looked back at this majestic city, and waved his army north.

"Troops, troops!"

Entering the Jinglu Mansion, the herald ran towards the main hall while shouting.

Jiliao Jingluo Sun Chengzong was discussing with the generals under his account, and when he heard the shout, he looked up at the door.

Entering the main hall, the herald knelt down on one knee, hugged his fists and said: "Qi Yu Jingluo, Yang Chengying led the army to attack and harass Gaizhou in the north." ”

When the generals heard this, they immediately came to their senses.

After waiting for so long, I finally heard the news of sending troops.

"Oh, show me." Sun Chengzong has always been calm.

The guards took the newspaper from the herald and handed it to Sun Chengzong.

Sun Chengzong took it apart and took a look, the joy on his face gradually disappeared, and finally turned into anger.

"Humph! This little slippery head! ”

He slammed the newspaper on the table.

Governor Yan Mingtai clenched his fists and asked, "Lord Jingluo, what happened?" ”

Sun Chengzong said angrily: "Yang Chengying actually only sent more than 1,000 troops, what is this enough for men." Could it be that the attack on Gaizhou? I don't think his goal is to build a state, but to restore.

This little slippery head prevaricates me with these words! ”

The generals discussed a lot, and they all felt that Lord Jinglu's words made sense.

There are tens of thousands of Han troops stationed in Gaizhou, although Houjin has sent Liu Xingzuo to lead the army to the Thirteen Mountain Posts to support, and the remaining soldiers are less than one or two thousand.

More than 1,000 people against 10,000 or 20,000 people, it seems impossible to think about it.

What's more, it is said that there are more than 200 women in this army.

The only explanation is that it is false that he led his army north to attack Gaizhou, and it is true that he attacked the bandits and grass robbers in Fuzhou and other places, and the people were migrated.

"Immediately send someone to order Yang Chengying, telling him not to do this for me, and to mobilize heavy troops to attack Gaizhou."

Sun Chengzong was so angry that he didn't even care about his basic image and scolded him sharply.

"Yes."

The herald obediently retreated.

"Master Jinglue, no matter what Yang Chengying's goal is, this is good news for us."

Yuan Chonghuan clenched his fists and said: "It doesn't matter how many troops he sends, as long as he sends troops, it will make Jianyu a little nervous." We instigated the army to pretend to cooperate, so that Jianyu believed it. ”

"Lord Yuan's words are right." Yan Mingtai took over the conversation, "Yang Chengying used to lure the enemy deep into the army, and then besieged it with several times the number of men.

The more times you use it, the enemy will also be suspicious, and you don't believe that he only brings so much. ”

Sun Chengzong stroked his chin and beard, thoughtfully.

Yuan Chonghuan further persuaded: "Ningyuan, Jinzhou and other areas are empty, and the Thirteen Mountains Righteous Army is struggling to support it. If we send troops at this time, build a Ningyuan defense line, and absorb the Thirteen Mountains Righteous Army, the entire western Liaoning will be alive. ”

Wang Xiangqian, the governor of Jiliao, who was at Shanhaiguan, shook his head and said: "No, if we venture like Wang Huazhen again, it is a question whether Shanhaiguan can be defended." ”

This famous minister of the Ming Dynasty, who is famous for "knowing the border", has no ambition at this time, and only seeks stability in everything.

After all, Xiong Tingbi's lesson is right in front of him.

At this moment, Xiong Tingbi is staying in the edict prison, just waiting for the knife to be beheaded.

"Governor Wang is right, we must be cautious and not let such things happen again." Sun Chengzong nodded in approval.

Yuan Chonghuan was anxious at the time: "Things are always changing, how can you stick to the rules, Nurhachi is in Shenyang, trying his best to settle the migrants, and there is no time to look west."

Once such a great opportunity is missed, it is too late to regret it. ”

His characteristic loud voice made the voice reverberate throughout the main hall.

Many people were shocked, how could anyone talk to the poor like this.

Yan Mingtai hurriedly pulled the corner of Yuan Chonghuan's clothes and signaled him not to be so loud.

Sun Chengzong's face was slightly gloomy, and Yuan Chonghuan did not give him any face in front of the governor, so he didn't give him this Ji Liao Sutra.

Wang Xiangqian snorted: "It's all for the Ming Dynasty, there's no need to quarrel so fiercely, it's really useless." ”

Yuan Chonghuan also wanted to say, but Yan Mingtai grabbed him and stood up by himself: "Governor, Lord Jingluo, although Yuan Chonghuan is rude, he is right.

Even if we can't recover Jinzhou, we must take Ningyuan and hold the throat of western Liaoning.

You all know that Yang Chengying specially built a town captive city, and the intention was to use the defense line built by this city to facilitate his advance and retreat.

Now he is attacking everywhere, but he is not worried about Jianyu going south, he is relying on this city to let the people of Jinzhou Town settle down.

We can also follow suit, build Ningyuan City, and resettle the people of Liaodong in the rear. ”

Although the analysis of every word is reasonable, it cannot shake the determination of Wang Xiangqian and Sun Chengzong.

Wang Huazhen's defeat was so miserable that the Ming army could no longer afford to lose again.

"Don't even think about sending troops, first stabilize the Zhongqian Station, the Qiantun Guard, the Zhonghou Station and other places."

Sun Chengzong set the tone.

Others can't talk anymore.

Yuan Chonghuan was unwilling, and pulled Yan Mingtai to find Sun Chengzong after the meeting.

Yan Mingtai was dragged away like an animal, and he said helplessly: "Brother Yuan, don't harm me, how can the things that have been decided be repeated." ”

"It's a rare opportunity, and you can't give up persuasion just because the above doesn't allow it."

Yuan Chonghuan said bitterly while pulling Yan Mingtai away.

Yan Mingtai was also anxious: "I want to too, but if the Governor is here, even if Sun Jingluo supports you, there is no way." ”

"Then convince Governor Wang!"

"Ha ......"

Yan Mingtai was like this, and was pulled by Yuan Chonghuan to the Jingluo Yamen.

At this time, Wang Xiangqian and Sun Chengzong were discussing things.

"Yuan Chonghuan's words, although they are frivolous, have some truth."

Sun Chengzong said tentatively: "Your Excellency, do we mean to send troops to Ningyuan?" ”

Wang Xiangqian sneered: "Master Sun, do you want to put the responsibility for the defeat on my head afterwards?" ”

"Absolutely not!" Sun Chengzong hurriedly defended.

"It's good if you don't have it." Wang Xiangqian lazily touched the lid of the tea, "You must know that the saint has been upset recently, if he hears that there will be another defeat in Liaoxi, do you think he will spare you and me?" ”

"This ......"

"Master Sun, although you have taught the emperor for a few days, the emperor respects you. But you don't know a lot of inside information, in the battle of Salhu back then, Yang Hao rashly sent troops, is it because he doesn't want to fight steadily? ”

Wang Xiangqian smiled bitterly: "How many officials in the DPRK and the central government scolded Yang Hao for supporting the army and self-respect, and forced Yang Hao to send troops. Afterwards, how many officials and ministers scolded Yang Hao for acting rashly with his troops and dividing his troops to attack. ”

Sun Chengzong knows this past.

Wang Xiangqian only needed to tap lightly, and Sun Chengzong understood.

Now that we are not completely sure, we still have to hold on.

Sun Chengzong hugged his fists and smiled: "It's still the governor who is steady, and the lower officials are not as good as the officials." ”

As he was talking, the next person came to report that Yan Mingtai and Yuan Chonghuan were here.

Sun Chengzong's face changed slightly, knowing their intentions.

Wang Xiangqian was a little angry: "How can this be reasonable, and the things that have been decided will also be disturbed." ”

"Tell them that I will accompany the Governor and will not have time to see them."

Sun Chengzong instructed his subordinates.

"Slow!" Wang Xiangqian said, "When you see them, see what they have to say." ”

Sun Chengzong hesitated, but had no choice but to do so and let his subordinates bring them in.
