A companion is like a tiger, this is really true!

When encountering an ambitious king like Zhu Youzhen and a city government, the courtiers should be more careful!

Isn't it?

This guy is very good at pretending to be a grandson!

A few days ago, in the face of the impeachment of the ministers, Zhu Youzhen couldn't wait to stab Yuan Chonghuan to death with a knife, but he took off his fur and draped it on him diligently!

The words "It's windy in the city, be careful of catching a cold" coaxed Yuan Chonghuan into a fog!

Unexpectedly, it has only been three days, and Huang Taiji is still outside the city, and this guy will turn his face and deny people!

Also a few days ago, Mangui's descendants bullied Shen Fu's newly recruited troops, fired arrows at Shen Fu's camp to scare, and shot people to death!

The matter was reported to the superintendent Yu Shi Jin Sheng, and Jin Sheng went to the table for impeachment overnight, and Zhu Youzhen wanted to deal with Man Gui very much, but he didn't say a word!

He knew that Yuan Chonghuan was imprisoned, Zu Dashou had defected, and only Man Gui could go into battle!

Only the prestige of Man Gui can suppress all kinds of soldiers and horses!

Therefore, Zhu Youzhen chose forbearance!

At the end of the stormy Ming Dynasty, Yuan Chonghuan's ability was not enough to turn the tide!

He is not a national hero, not even a "patriotic general"!

However, among the many ancient generals, Wang Li remembered Yuan Chonghuan's name because of "Blue Blood Sword"!

Whether he died unjustly or unjustly, he is a tragic figure and thought-provoking!

Because he knew little about the history of the late Ming Dynasty, Wang Licai wanted to keep Yuan Chonghuan!

After all, the only person who can defeat the Eight Banners twice outside the Guan, and the one who can defeat the Eight Banners twice in Beijing, is him!

If he can be kept, the national glory of the Ming Dynasty may last for a few more years!

And by yourself, you can make a few more years!

Man Gui's defeat, Zhu Youzhen is unavailable, it is the best time to save Yuan Chonghuan!

However, seeing Man Gui going into battle with an injury, leading generals such as Heiyun Dragon, Ma Dengyun, and Sun Zushou to set up a fence and meet the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry with foot soldiers, Wang Li was a little unbearable!

Even, there is a sense of foreboding!

In Wang Li's plan, Man Gui doesn't need to die!

All he needs is one defeat, and that's enough!

After all, there are only a handful of generals who can handle it!

"Song Zhe!"

"Factory, what do you command?"

"In this battle, Mangui will be defeated! You protect him by his side and try to keep him safe! Can it be done? ”

Song Zhe hesitated slightly, and said with a straight face: "Factory father, subordinates...... You can only do your best! ”

For Song Zhe's skills, Wang Li is still confident!

But, I also understand Song's hesitation!

After all, it's a chaotic battlefield!

Life and death fight, the sword has no eyes!

Song Zhe promised that he would retreat with his whole body, maybe there would be no problem!

To ensure that Mangui is safe and sound, no one dares to pack tickets!

"Go ahead! Just do your best! Save your life first! ”

These words moved Song Zhe so much that he didn't want it!

I followed the factory father, and I really didn't follow the wrong person!

……

Outside the city, drums rumbled, smoke and dust rose everywhere, and the sound of killing shook the sky!

The cannons in the city let out sporadic roars, sending weak and weak support to the Ming soldiers who were fighting in front of them!

Actually, it doesn't take much!

As long as there is the sound of artillery in the city, there is hope for the Ming army under the city!

The person who instructed the gunner to open the gun, in addition to Sun Chengzong, there was also a thin old man who looked like a scholar.

"The old minister... Who is it? ”

"Gong Chang, that's Lord Xu Guangqi, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, a newly relocated squire of the Ministry of Rites, and an auxiliary minister of the cabinet!"

Xu Guangqi!

I'll go!

I almost forgot, Daming still has a Xu Guangqi!

Wang Li is not unfamiliar with this person's name.

He is one of the few modern astronomers, mathematicians, agriculturists and military strategists in ancient times!

The "Geometric Originals" he co-translated with Matteo Ricci, and the "Pythagorean Meaning" and "Measurement Similarities and Differences" written by himself, greatly narrowed the gap between the mathematical level of the Ming Dynasty and the world's frontier!

The Ming Dynasty was able to introduce the world's advanced artillery, and was able to understand the manufacturing technology of artillery and imitate it, which was inseparable from Xu Guangqi's efforts!

With his mathematical and military talents, he was able to command the gunners to open fire, which was understandable.

It's a pity that in the stormy Ming Dynasty, under the ambitious and self-righteous Zhu Youchen, it is difficult for him to give full play to his talents!

Alas!

At this time, Xu Guangqi was sixty-eight years old, and he was old!

If he had been discovered two years earlier, he might have been able to help the Fujian Ordnance Bureau make some cannons!

But well...... As long as he's alive, there's a chance!

"Help me gather all his information, as fast as possible!"

"No!"

……

A battle outside the city, from noon to evening!

The bad news keeps coming one after another!

Adjutant General Sun Zushou was killed!

The lieutenant general Black Cloud Dragon was captured!

Adjutant Ma Dengyun captured!

Man Gui was seriously wounded, but he still didn't fight or retreat!

Even Song Zhe couldn't drag him away from the battlefield!

can only protect his left and right, fight hard, and stain his clothes and armor with blood!

Fortunately, the chief soldier Ma Shilong led reinforcements from all walks of life to kill!

Seeing that the Ming army was huge and the sky was about to get dark, Huang Taiji refused to fight, and finally retreated!

Man Gui was finally carried into the camp tent and was half dead!

Just when the two armies were fighting outside the city, Wang Li sent a letter to Yuan Chonghuan in prison through Wei Zhongxian.

In the letter, Wang Li told Yuan Chonghuan that his family was safe;

He also analyzed the situation between Korea and China, analyzed the deployment of troops between the enemy and us, and also warned him: No matter who advises you to recall Zu Dashou, you must refuse!

Even if your mentor Han Yi comes forward to persuade him, or his old superior Sun Chengzong comes forward, you have to refuse!

Only in this way can we put it to death and come back to life!

Wang Li does have a plan to rescue Yuan Chonghuan!

But, that's the last plan!

Don't dare to use it lightly until you have to!

If he can be released from prison before he is convicted, even if he cannot be reinstated, it is countless times stronger than the "last resort" rescue plan!

Wang Li persuaded him to "live in the place of death", which seemed reckless, but in fact it was not!

Because, the Guanning Iron Horse that Zu Dashou took away is the only capital he has left!

It is also the most important capital!

Firmly grasp this capital, maybe there is a glimmer of life!

If you don't have this capital, you can only let people eat it!

Such an approach will definitely anger Zhu Youzhen, but there is indeed a glimmer of life!

Because, Zhu Youzhen had already moved to kill!

At this moment, it no longer makes any sense to worry about whether to anger Zhu Youzhen!

Why don't you gamble!

Wang Li's prediction was indeed correct!

The afternoon battle outside the city was reported in detail to Zhu Youzhen.

He realized that if there was no Guanning Iron Cavalry, it was indeed not a way to rely on foot soldiers to resist the Eight Banners!

Zhu Youzhen's first thought was not to release Yuan Chonghuan, but to ask him to write a letter to persuade Zu Dashou to bring back Guanning Tieqi!

It's just that if you want to convince Yuan Chonghuan, no one wants to go out!

After discussing for a long time, pushing back and forth, this heavy responsibility fell on the shoulders of Yu Dacheng, the "director of the Ministry of War"!

In the middle of the night, Yu Dacheng came to prison.

At this time, Yuan Chonghuan, because he had read Wang Li's letters, knew everything outside the city well.

Of course, he still maintains trust in Wang Li!

"Lord Yu, the offender...... It's not that I don't write to Zu Dashou!

You also know that the reason why Zu Dashou obeys my orders is because I am the Jiliao Governor!

At this moment, I am in prison, and I may be beheaded at any time!

Let's ask, if you are Zu Dashou, will you obey the orders of the person who is about to be beheaded? ”

These words made Yu Dacheng so angry that he blew his beard and glared!

Isn't this talking nonsense with your eyes open?

If it is said that Zu Dashou obeys the orders of his superiors, then why does the emperor not obey the emperor's order to be the governor of all walks of life?

How can you put the emperor in your eyes?

So, this guy only obeys you!

You have to write this letter!

So, Yu Dacheng had an idea, first affirmed Yuan Chonghuan's merits, and then moved out of what national righteousness, and what made meritorious contributions.

However, Yuan Chonghuan kept Wang Li's words in mind and had a resolute attitude, just don't write!

I'd rather die than write!

Yu Dacheng can only return in vain!

Hearing this, Zhu Youzhen gritted his teeth in anger!

Kick the table as far as you want!

Yu Dacheng was so scared that he kept shivering, and he broke out in a cold sweat!

"Rebel! It's a rebel! Even if Ling Chi is ten times, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart! ”

"The Emperor...... Your Majesty, rest your anger, stop your anger!

If our army loses the Guanning Iron Cavalry, Jiannu Iron will definitely not retreat!

If you continue to fight like this, all reinforcements will be defeated!

The siege of Jingshi, I don't know when it will be solved! ”

After speaking, Yu Dacheng quickly shut up and carefully observed the subtle changes in Zhu Youzhen's face.

Soon, Zhu Youzhen calmed down slightly, and Yu Dacheng took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, Yuan Chonghuan is the commander of the border army, and he has few contacts with courtiers, and few people can persuade him!"

Unless...... Unless it's the second dog of the West Factory Admiral, or is it ...... The military department is still the secretary of the military department, Sun Ge Lao, or the first assistant of the cabinet, Han Yi......"

"That's right!"

Zhu Youzhen nodded, thinking of Wang Ergou, but shook his head again.

This guy has a close relationship with Yuan Chonghuan, and everyone knows about it.

With him coming forward, he will definitely be able to persuade Yuan Chonghuan!

But, in this way, he made another contribution!

At present, Wei Zhongxian, Wang Ergou, and the Chinese courtiers of the dynasty and themselves, this "four-cornered relationship" of mutual constraints has taken shape;

In terms of ability, he is no less than Wei Zhongxian!

However, the West Factory is not as good as the East Factory!

This is not because his strength is not good, but because his qualifications are too shallow to recruit a lot of minions;

Of course, the west factory is not as good as the east factory, but it restricts the east factory, which is the best state you want;

It's a pity, because of the ports of Fu and Zhejiang, because of the subsidence of the people in Shanxi, this guy's reputation is in full swing, and he has the potential to surpass Dongchang!

If he succeeds in persuading Yuan Chonghuan, many courtiers will move closer to him!

If he is out of his control, the balance of the "four corners" will be broken!

Most likely, out of control!

After all, the East Factory, which has big roots and deep roots, has already given itself a headache!

Then come to the West Factory with big roots and deep roots, Daming will surely become the world of the eunuch party!

So......

"Just do as you say, let Elder Sun Ge and Han Yi persuade Yuan Chonghuan! Persuade Zu Dashou as soon as possible, don't let me down again! ”

……

Xiaoice River period, the Beijing division in December, dripping into ice!

It was already dawn, but Wang Li hugged Liu Ruyan and hid in the quilt and refused to get up.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

There was a knock on the door outside the door: "Factory Gong, Factory Gong, Wei Gong is waiting in the main hall, saying that there is something important to meet!" ”

"Something important? What could he do? ”

"Gonggong Chang, according to Gonggong Wei, Han Yi and Sun Chengzong persuaded him repeatedly, but Yuan Chonghuan still refused to write a letter!"

"I know that! You tell Wei Zhongxian to make him wait! ”

After speaking, Wang Li pulled the quilt again and wrapped the two of them tightly.

Outside the door, there was another voice from Jinyiwei: "Gonggong Chang, Gonggong Wei also said that there were two eunuchs who were captured by Jiannu and fled back to Beijing!"

These two people hold ironclad evidence that Yuan Chonghuan collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country! ”

I'll go!

Cold?

What ironclad evidence?

It's like the truth!

Wang Li lifted the quilt, turned over and got off the kang, and hurriedly put on his robe.

Alas!

Yuan Chonghuan listened to his own persuasion, and just had a glimmer of life, but he was caught with ironclad evidence of "collaborating with the enemy"?

Is this possible?

Anyway, I don't believe it!
