The 921st Meeting

Sun Chuanting has been imprisoned for too long.

So long that the walls of his prison were carved with the word "Zheng".

It's just that the news he got after he was released from prison diluted half of his joy at being released from prison.

A Fu Zonglong and a Wang Qiaonian "sent" the Qin soldiers he worked so hard to build.

Before he had time to be sentimental, he had to enter the palace to face the saint after freshening up.

Under the service of the servants, he took a bath happily, changed into clean clothes, trimmed his beard, and followed Cao Huachun into the palace.

Sun Chuanting was not in a good mood, and Chongzhen was also very sad.

The heavy army group of the Ming Dynasty in the Central Plains, except for You Shilu, who was yang and yin, was gone.

This means that Li Zicheng will lose his restraint in the Central Plains, and where he will go next, Chongzhen has no bottom in his heart.

So when he saw Sun Chuanting, the first thing he said was: "Sun Qingjia, I ask you, how many men can you use to eliminate Li Zicheng?"

Sun Chuanting thought for a moment and replied, "Back to Your Majesty, if Your Majesty can give the minister 5,000 elites, the minister will definitely be able to defeat Li Zicheng."

Does he know that Li Zicheng got Qin Bing?

Know!

Do you know that Li Zicheng has tens of thousands of elites, and now it is not what it used to be?

He knows.

Then why did he answer Chongzhen like this?

No way!

Sun Chuanting encountered the same situation as Yuan Chonghuan.

It's too ugly to say, the emperor is displeased, and if you don't do it, he will put you in prison.

I can only say it in a big way, and I will talk about the later things, at least I have passed the call first.

Chongzhen didn't care about it, so he said, "I give you 5,000 soldiers from the Beijing battalion, and you take them to Shaanxi to take up your post, and the governor is on three sides."

As soon as he heard the word "Jingying", Sun Chuanting's head became bigger.

He hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, if you can allow, please give the minister some silver, and the minister will go to Shaanxi to recruit local soldiers, and he will get the elite in less than half a year."

"Jingying was trained by Ma Dengyun, and it is not what it used to be. It's better for you to take it to Shaanxi than those Qin soldiers who run away as soon as there is a battle."

Chongzhen was a little angry.

Sun Chuanting knew that the emperor was not angry with him and Qin Bing, but someone else.

"Your Majesty," Sun Chuanting said, "The chief soldier He Renlong used to be Hong Chengchou's favorite general, and he has worked hard all these years without merit. But he retreated without a fight when he encountered the enemy several times, which is really hateful. Your Majesty, please make a judgment."

"He Renlong, this person is really hateful, you can capture him on the spot, and punish him in a canonical manner, so as to warn the rest of the general soldiers."

Chongzhen acquiesced in Sun Chuanting's idea - to kill the dragon.

Sun Chuanting received the order and thanked him.

Soon, he left the Beijing division with the unbearable soldiers of the Beijing camp in Fira and hurried lightly.

Due to the lack of silver and sufficient grain and grass, Sun Chuanting did all kinds of evil wherever he passed.

When Sun Chuanting rushed to Shaanxi, Yang Chengying also led his army to Jining.

After such a long expedition, the Liaodong Army could finally rest for a few days.

Compared with the beginning, Jining has long been very different, as if it has become the second big town outside the Saiwai.

Li Guoying had already prepared food and wine for the expeditionary army.

Yang Chengying took advantage of the time to go to Datong and meet with his "old friend" Lu Xiangsheng.

The two met at the Chunyan Building in Datong, and the table was filled with local specialties from Datong.

Compared with Yang Chengying's comfort, Lu Xiangsheng was full of sadness.

"It's still the wine from the Central Plains that smells fragrant."

Yang Chengying sniffed the wine glass, and then drank it again.

Lu Xiangsheng sat across from him, silent.

Yang Chengying put down the wine glass, and the shopkeeper stepped forward to pour the wine with a very good eye.

"Lord Governor, what is it that makes you feel depressed?" Yang Chengying asked knowingly.

Lu Xiangsheng poured down the wine in his cup and said bitterly: "Half of my distress is because of the peasant army, they have already risen in Henan, and it is not easy to exterminate them."

"I heard about Sun Chuan

The court has been reinstated, and with him, the situation is not as bad as you think."

Yang Chengying sandwiched the dishes and said while eating.

"You're well-informed." Lu Xiangsheng was not surprised.

"Hey, I've heard people talk about it, but I don't know if it's true or not."

Yang Chengying continued to eat.

Lu Xiangsheng chuckled lightly and said, "Sun Chuanting is certainly powerful, but the Qin soldiers he has worked so hard to train are already Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses."

"You also have Datong soldiers, who are also trilateral elites."

"Datong soldiers? Hehe...... The emperor and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty didn't know that the Datong soldiers were already in your Yang Chengying's pocket."

"You can't say that, it will cause Your Majesty to misunderstand."

"That's what my other half is frustrating. I know that the horses I bought are all left over from you, but I can't tell the truth to the court. The better the Datong governs, the more it will fall into your hands."

As he spoke, Lu Xiangsheng, who had an upright personality, raised his hand and poured a glass of bitter wine.

Yang Chengying held chopsticks and looked at him quietly.

"Brother Yang!"

"Huh?"

"You are the only one who can turn things around in the world. If you ......"

"Brother Lu, who is it that provoked the people to rebel? Is it His Majesty the Emperor, or is it a civil and military official?"

"Well......

"Even if I am willing, Your Majesty is not willing. Even if Your Majesty were to do so, my soldiers would not be involved."

"This ......"

Lu Xiangsheng was speechless for a while.

This non-participation means that you are not able to participate.

Soldiers must have enough food to fight in order to fight, but the Ming court has a law, and whenever they pass through a county, they must provide for the army locally.

The problem is that the county can't take it out, so it can only close the city gates.

Fighting a war on one's own land is like going to a foreign country, how can this war be fought?

Therefore, Yang Chengying said with emotion: "There is no Yang Pavilion in the world."

When Yang Sichang was still there, he covered the Liaodong Army and helped mediate all forces, so that the Liaodong Army would not run out of food and sleep in the wilderness.

Many governors are far inferior to Yang Sichang.

For example, Ding Qirui, as soon as the people arrived in Xuchang, they plundered everywhere and did all kinds of evil.

"Actually, you have another way." Yang Cheng pointed at himself with chopsticks, "Arrest me and send me to the imperial court, and then command my soldiers."

Lu Xiangsheng smiled dumbly: "Yang Jingluo, you treat me as a fool. Catch you? Who can I move now except for the standard battalion command! From officials to ordinary people to soldiers, who does not treat you as your own father, this is pure delusion."

"Then let's come the other way around, you follow me to Jining for a few days to see the scenery outside the Saiwai." Yang Cheng should be invited.

"Going outside?" Lu Xiangsheng hesitated.

He is the governor of Xuanda, how can he casually follow Yang Chengying to go outside the Saiwai.

He is not Hong Chengchou.

However, Lu Xiangsheng thought about it carefully for a while, nodded and agreed: "Since it was His Royal Highness's warm invitation, I was disrespectful. It's just, what do you want me to do outside the plug?"

"I'll take you to see something new." Yang added, "Something new that you've never seen before, you've only heard of."

"You've developed a lot of new gadgets in Liaodong, and I've heard of them for a long time. Well, just let you see it, and let me open my eyes."

Lu Xiangsheng was not worried about accidents on this trip.

If there was to be an accident, it would have happened a long time ago.
