Chapter 398: The Verge (2)
The night of the grassland is extremely beautiful, a new moon hangs obliquely in the sky, sprinkling the soft moonlight on the earth, the stars twinkle in the night sky, fireflies dance in line under the moonlight, unknown insects sing among the grass, the wind passes, the blades of grass lie low, and the grass waves roll like water waves. There is no doubt about the beauty of the grassland, even if you stay on the grassland for a lifetime, you will never feel resentful, but at this moment, the delirious Alabutan has no intention of appreciating such beautiful scenery at all, and he has been pacing back and forth in the tent for a long time, and the tangled thoughts in his heart are already a mess.
"Sixth brother, what do you think of this battle?" Arabutan finally stopped, looked at Celing Dundob with a solemn face, and asked in a calm voice.
"Great Khan, if it is according to the deployment of the Qing Emperor, he will win!" Tseringdun Dobb paused for a moment and continued, "But it is not the victory of my Dzungar tribe. ”
"Yes, if that's the case, I'm in danger." Arabutan shook his head with a wry smile and said: "How can the Qing Emperor let me go after the great victory, if it is really at that time, people will be swords and I will be fish and meat, let alone turn over, even if you want to find a way to live, you can't get it, what should I do now?" ”
Tseling Dundobu bowed down and said: "Great Khan, there are only two ways to go now, one is to leak the plan of the Qing Emperor to Lao Maozi, let Lao Maozi and the Qing Emperor come to a hard fight, both defeats and injuries, our army is also good to reap the benefits of the fishermen, but although this plan is good, there is an unsolvable problem, once the Qing Emperor is defeated, Lao Maozi will not let my Jungger Department have a way to live, and moreover, the Qing Emperor is more or less merciful, even if he wins, he will not kill my Junggar Department, but Lao Maozi wants to destroy my race. The second is to plan the plan, although you can act in accordance with the Qing Emperor's policy, but the eldest brother can take advantage of the chaos to withdraw first, go back to gather elite soldiers, once the Qing Emperor wins, attack the Qitai camp, destroy the Qing Emperor's army of grain and grass, so that the Qing Emperor is unable to fight again, forced to surrender. ”
"Oh?" Arabutan frowned, lowered his head and pondered again, and after a long time, he raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Then it's better to have two strategies in parallel." ”
"Big brother, this ......" Tsering Dundobu hurriedly spoke out and was about to admonish, but Tseling Alabutan waved his hand and said: "Needless to say, eldest brother has his own opinions, you come with your ears, so ......" Tsering Dundob listened with a changeable face, and did not say a word for a long time......
In the big tent of the Qing Zhong Army, Yinzuo, who had been busy all day, finally finished dealing with military affairs, and was about to take a breath, but before he had time to take a sip of tea, Gao Nianying, the eunuch, hurriedly walked in and said, "Shengshang, the letter has arrived." As he spoke, he handed a small note in his hand to Yinzuo.
"Huh?" Yinzuo took the text message and glanced at it quickly, but it was the latest news from "Honghu" in Beijing - the old eight moved!
Hehe, the eighth finally can't help but make a move, okay, we've been waiting for this day for a long time, get rid of the eighth, remove a huge stumbling block, and it's time for the court to reshuffle. Yinzuo chuckled in a good mood, and casually crumpled the letter written in the code into pieces.
"Holy." Zhang Tingyu, who had just finished copying the abridgement, saw that Yinzuo was in a good mood, and couldn't help but speak: "The saint, the minister is not familiar with military affairs, but the minister thinks that it is unreliable to plot against Alabutan, and now the saint has handed over the burden of luring the enemy to this person, and there is a fear that there will be mistakes, and the minister does not dare not say anything." ”
"What Hengchen said is very true, I know it in my heart, I have already deployed it in advance, I am not afraid of him making trouble, I am afraid that he will not make trouble, otherwise I really have no legitimate excuse to take down this person, there is no need to worry about this matter." Yin Zuo smiled and said, "Hengchen, there is news from Jingshi, well, the eighth child has finally started to make a move." ”
"What?" Zhang Tingyu's hand trembled, and the stack of folds in his hand suddenly scattered, and Li Guangdi, who was immersed in copying abridgements on the other side, also raised his head in surprise, the gray beard on his chin also trembled, and a pair of old eyes stared at Yinzuo with surprise.
"Hengchen, Jin Qing, why panic, the eighth is just singing according to my script, I let him act well enough, I am looking forward to the eighth being able to sing a big show." Yinzuo smiled contemptuously.
Zhang Tingyu and Li Guangdi are both old and respectful, although they already knew that Yun Xi would definitely cause trouble when the emperor drove his own expedition, and they had long known that Yinzuo had made a pre-arrangement, but when it came to the end, the two of them were still shocked. Zhang Tingyu thought for a while and said: "The saint is wise, but this matter is not trivial, if the matter is out of control, the court situation is turbulent, and I am afraid that the foundation of the society will be hurt, please enlighten the saint." ”
"It's okay, it's all trouble in the morning and evening, I'm waiting for him to make trouble." Yinzuo smiled and waved his hand and said: "This matter has nothing to do with the two Aiqing, you don't have to worry about it, I will have a claim, it's okay, I will pull out the camp early tomorrow morning, and you will all kneel down." Seeing that Yinzuo didn't want to talk about such things, Zhang and Li didn't dare to persuade more, they each knelt down and retreated......
Poor civility, wealth and military force is generally one of the characteristics of Chinese dynasties, if the civil official is not a corrupt official, it is almost the same to get a thousand taels of silver all year round, but the military general is different, as long as he is a chief military officer, play some tricks such as drinking the blood of soldiers, deducting military salaries, and reselling grain, tens of thousands of taels of silver in a year, if there is a good time to send troops, then the oil and water will be big, do something to point the people as bandits, kill the good and risk the merit and other tricks, not only can rob the people's wealth but also make war achievements, very cool! This set of tricks has been staged in the past dynasties, and it has not improved much in the Qing Dynasty, and the generals and general soldiers from all over the country are happy in it, but there is one - such things can only be done in private, if they are stabbed out, then it will be over, not to mention the future, even a small life may not be saved, of course, the guy who was stabbed through is definitely a very small number of unlucky eggs.
It was very late at night, but the current Admiral of Jiumen, Liangcheng, had no sleep, and was pacing back and forth in the study of his mansion with an impetuous heart, his face was terrifyingly gloomy. In fact, since the first month of the third year of Yuanzhuo, Liangcheng has never been happy - I don't know who took the handle of him when he was a general in Xi'an and Rehe, and he did a lot of things to coerce him, although things are trivial, but now Liangcheng doesn't even know who the other party is, even if he wants to fight back, he has no clue, how can he be happy?
Tonight, yes, even tonight, the hateful blackmailer is about to show up - Liangcheng received a letter at noon, saying that the man would come to visit tonight, but now it is two o'clock, and the mysterious man has never been seen, Liangcheng really can't sit still, but it's useless for him to be anxious, he can only wait, isn't it?
"Master, there is a guest visiting, and people are at the back door." A Goshha, who had been instructed by Liangcheng in advance to greet the visitors, hurried into the study and whispered.
"Oh?" Liangcheng frowned, and hurriedly asked, "How many people came?" ”
"Master, it's just a carriage, the curtain is tightly covered, you can't see the situation inside, and it's a coachman who calls the door." Goshha bowed in reply.
"Okay, let them in, and wait for the signal from the Governor." Liangcheng waved his hand and admonished viciously.
"Wow." Goshha snorted and retreated on his own, and Liangcheng sat down a little nervously, his face twitching out with murderous anger.
After a while, a middle-aged scholar walked into the room with Goshha, and the person who came bowed and saluted without arrogance or humility: "The grass people have seen the good handsome. ”
Liangcheng didn't answer with a cold face, waved his hand, signaled Goshha to exit the room, stared at the visitor with a pair of eagle eyes, and after a long time, he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Good thief, good dog, dare to blackmail Bendu, hey, I'm not afraid that Bendu will cut you down." ”
"Afraid? Hahaha...... The grass people are very afraid, if the good handsome is not afraid, there is no need to ambush people outside, since a certain dare to come, naturally have something, the good man can cut the grass people, but ......" the person laughed and said.
"But how?" Liangcheng's face sank, and he said coldly.
The person who came said with a solemn face: "Hehe, it's easy to cut it down, but Liangshuai is afraid that he will have to accompany the grass people to hell." ”
"Presumptuous!" Liangcheng Huo Ran stood up, roared angrily, pulled out the sword hanging on the wall, waved his hand on the neck of the person who came, and sneered: "Could it be that the sword in Bendu's hand is not good?" ”
"Good handsome, please respect yourself, the grass people are not afraid of death, why are they afraid of death, good marshal wants to cut and kill, just whatever." The visitor said without raising his eyelids.
"Okay." Liangcheng's eyes flashed, he put the long sword back into its sheath, gestured and said: "Sir, please sit down, this governor thinks that he has no grievances and no enmity with you, why do you want to blackmail Ben Shuai, if you can't say why, Ben Shuai will fight to the death and take you first." ”
"Okay, this is the true character of the general, don't hide it, the grass people's surname is Wen, the name is Ruihe, and the words are universal, I think the general should have heard of the grass people." Wen Ruihe said calmly.
"What? You are the person of the Eighth Master, you ......" Although Liangcheng had never seen Wen Ruihe's face, he knew that there was such a mysterious military advisor in the Eighth Master's Mansion.
Wen Ruihe smiled and said, "Yes, I am the person of the Eighth Master, isn't Liangshuai also a person of the Eighth Master?" ”
"Fart! This governor is an official of the imperial court, a person of the emperor, and has nothing to do with your master. Liangcheng yelled angrily.
"Why should Liangshuai be taboo, now Liangshuai is already on the eighth master's ship, and I'm afraid it's too late to come down." Wen Ruihe laughed and said: "The ordnance and military rations sent by the good marshal have long been registered, and it is also well documented to help the eighth master to intervene under the Yamen of the Nine Gates, and it is said that the sky is broken, I am afraid that the good marshal can't deny it, and I can easily spare you today, hahaha......"
"You, you ......" Liangcheng's face turned blue, pointed at Wen Ruihe with a trembling finger, he was so angry that he couldn't speak, he stood for a long time, sat down depressedly, and said with a wry smile: "Sir, you don't need to say much, this governor is deeply favored by the emperor, and it is impossible to go behind the saint's back to plot rebellion. ”
"Oh?" Wen Ruihe pretended to be surprised, and said with interest: "Is it possible for Liangshuai to expect to return to Beijing today?" Hey, I'll tell you the truth, this defeat is now decided, and there is no way back. ”
"Nonsense, you dare to curse the saint, Ben Du beheaded you." Liangcheng slammed the table and stood up, and Goshha outside heard this pre-agreed signal, and immediately rushed in with a honeycomb, and surrounded Wen Ruihe with knives and guns, just waiting for Liangcheng to give an order, he was going to take down Wen Ruihe.
Wen Ruihe didn't have a trace of panic, and said with a slight smile: "Why does Liangshuai want to move the people so much, he is just a literati, and even if Liangshuai wins it, it will be useless." ”
"Stand down!" Liangcheng's face changed for a while, and he waved his hand dejectedly, signaling the gang of Goshha to withdraw from the study, staring at Wen Ruihe and said, "You make it clear to Bendu, otherwise don't blame Bendu's subordinates for being ruthless." ”
"Well said, well said." Wen Rui flicked off his shirt and said with a smile: "The eighth master is a virtuous king, and he has always won the popularity of the people, if it weren't for the frame-up and collusion with He Tie to fabricate the posthumous photo, this big seat should have been sat by the eighth master." Today, he is warlike and does not follow the ancestral system, and he is actually a rebel of my Qing Dynasty. This thief is belligerent, regardless of the people's livelihood difficulties, brazenly sent troops to help Jungar such a feud, it is really a big loss of the people's hearts, God will punish him, this battle will not only be lost, but also this thief will die, hehe, there will be definite news in the next few days. Liang Shuai, you must know that good birds choose trees to perch, heroes take advantage of the trend, and now the situation is in the hands of the eighth master, Liang Shuai must not make mistakes. ”
"You...... The Governor will immediately go to the Ben to expose you! Liangcheng was indignant.
"It's too late." Wen Ruihe sneered and said: "Now the bones of that thief are already cold, even if he is still alive, it is useless, to tell you the truth, the entire Jingshi is already in the hands of the eighth master, even if you are the commander of the nine gates, this is thanks to the strong support of Liangshuai." What should Liang Shuai do, there is no need for Wen to say more, after the matter is completed, the eighth master will not treat you badly, and the title of a scholar of Wuyingdian is ready for Liang Shuai. ”
"You...... I ......" Liangcheng collapsed weakly in his chair, speechless, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "This governor should think about it." ”
"Cheng, Liangshuai, time is running out, tomorrow evening will send someone to listen to the news, oh, by the way, during this period, the people in Liangshuai's mansion had better not leave the mansion, otherwise there will be an accident, don't blame Wen for not reminding him in advance and say goodbye." Wen Ruihe laughed, got up and swaggered out, leaving Liangcheng alone in the study......
