Chapter 1618 Ren Zijuan Thunder Falling Serial Killing (1)
Feng Tang used his eloquent words to brainwash the generals in the northwest towns, and finally made them realize that the Governor-General of the Three Sides, who was also the Governor of Jiliao, was not just visiting the Northwest to appease everyone. To put it simply, this is a posture that aims to lead everyone on the road to rapid success.
But how to take this road, the Governor has not yet revealed it.
Feng Tang had already vetoed the idea of flag-raising and rebellion, which made everyone feel more at ease. Previously, everyone thought that this and that could not be fought, so who else could be fought?
Could it be that this man has gone crazy and wants to rebel? He had no one to accompany him, and he even thought of cutting off his head as a way to advance to the next level.
Of course old subordinates like He Shixian must believe that this old boss would not be so unwise.
Fortunately, Feng Ziying blocked this possibility early on and only said that he should recharge his batteries and wait for the opportunity to fight a big battle.
Those who are more well-informed, such as He Shixian and Xiao Ruxun, have heard more or less about the grievances between the emperor and Prince Yi Zhong, the restlessness in Jiangnan, and the princes competing for favor and credit. They also have different backgrounds behind the election of the crown prince. The Chu incident is imminent and becoming increasingly fierce.
Rumors about the emperor's poor health are also circulating among high-ranking border generals. Perhaps the governor is thinking about this. Of course, the merit of following the dragon is the greatest, and no one can compare with it, but you have to choose correctly.
Those who were less informed, such as Qi Bingzhong and Ma Kongying, speculated on the possibility of a popular rebellion among the refugees in northern Shaanxi and Shanxi due to severe drought.
A simple civil uprising will not lead to anything, but if there are ambitious people inside who want to rebel, then a great thing will happen to them. The Governor has said that Xuanda and Ji Liao will not be able to fight against the foreign enemies outside the border wall. No matter how much mobile troops are sent, only the four northwest towns can send troops. I hope we can catch up with such a good thing this year.
Seeing that the eyes of all the people were flickering, they were all wondering who they were going to hit when they said "Who to hit" in their words. Feng Tang knew that this was the only way he could say this.
Too much is not enough, let them think and guess and use it on their own. Whether it is the Mongols, the rebellion, the White Lotus Sect and the refugees, or even going south to attack Bozhou, they want to go, but if they want to fight, they have to Look at your own performance, and those with outstanding performance will be given priority to send troops. You must understand that this is the purpose of Qingyang's training!
While Feng Tang was cheering up a group of cadres and generals, Niu Jizong was also receiving visitors.
"What did the prince say?" The visitor took off his cloak after entering the quiet room. Niu Jizong's eyes were serious.
Chu Qi was a Yanqing guard who entered with the caravan, and all his entourage stayed outside, so there was no trace of it.
"Just follow what we agreed on." Chu Qi nodded heavily, "We can't place our hopes on any one person. We must have enough backup to avoid being helpless if we fail."
Niu Jizong nodded with satisfaction. He had never really approved of such methods and always felt that it was a bit of a child's play.
Although there is a hunting palace there, the emperor is stationed there, and the Longjing Lieutenant, Warrior Camp and Jingying Camp are accompanied by large armies. Whether it is a small raid or an assassination, it seems untrustworthy.
Of course, Niu Jizong also knew that Prince Yi Zhong must have some special arrangements, and there must be internal personnel at Lieyuan to provide support, otherwise he would not have such an idea.
"Okay, you guys will follow your own path, and I'll follow my arrangements." Niu Jizong paused, "No matter what your final move is, I only hope for one result, the Chahar bandits will be defeated." Bian must make an impression, and cannot just put on airs. You Shigong is a veteran, and he can't hide it from his eyes. I need at least five days, which means that the Chahar people's offensive must be maintained for at least three days!"
Chu Qi's words made Niu Jizong's face darken. After a long time, he said in a low voice: "We have no choice. We can't bear to let the children trap the wolf. We didn't add a lot to You Shigong after last year. Chahar If you still think that you can break in as easily as last year, you will suffer a big loss. Mr. Chu, you also need to remind the prince, but even if the Chahar people break in, they won't be able to cause much trouble. As long as we can take over smoothly, we may be able to return the favor. You can trick these Mongols."
Chu Qi shook his head, "Niu Gong, Lin Dan Batur can control the Chahar people at such a young age. I'm afraid they are not so easy to be fooled. We don't expect anything. We just need to delay Ji Zhen. With a time difference, Youshi Gong is still at Santun camp, but I estimate that once the emperor goes to Tiewan Mountain, he may lead his troops to Miyun Huairou."
"So we cannot let him go to Miyun Huairou, and we must hold him back from Jiangjunshi to Longjingguan." Niu Jizong's eyes became colder, "We must grasp his whereabouts in time, and when he reaches Zunhua, we can let him The Har people launched an attack from Longjing Pass to Luowen Valley, but the attack should not be too fierce. Just attract You Shigong's attention. If he does not stop, then they must strengthen the area from Huangya Valley to Catfish Pass. The offensive must not let You Shigong defeat General Shi."
Chu Qi nodded, "Your Majesty has made arrangements for this, and we also have people there. However, the western front of Ji Zhen is more troublesome. Although the Ji Zhen Army troops stationed at Caojiazhai, Fengjiabao, and Shichengxi There are not many troops, but they are all elite. If the Chahar people harass this line, the prince is worried that it will alert the enemy and prevent the emperor from staying at Tiewan Mountain..."
Niu Jizong stood up and paced back and forth, "Among these troops, those stationed in Gaojiabao and Fengjiabao are direct descendants of You Shigong, but those stationed in Caojiazhai and Shichengxi are two newly formed groups after the Mongolian invasion last year. There is a guerrilla unit, and the generals are all young boys. Although they are somewhat aggressive, their subordinates are all newly transferred from Minzhuang, and their number is not large. If possible, let a small group of Chahar people in Gao Choose an opportunity to attack from Jiabao to Feng Jiabao, don't make too much noise, just try to contain You Shigong's direct descendants a little."
“From Huanghua Town to Changping…” Chu Qi asked again.
"Mr. Chu, you don't think we can only rely on the Chahar people, do you?" Niu Jizong smiled proudly: "In the end, we have to do it ourselves, from Dashui Valley, Mutianyu to Bohai Institute, Longhu Terrace, Zhenbiancheng , I have made all arrangements, raising troops for a thousand days and using them for a while, it is time for my Xuanfu army to show off its swords."
"Well, I'm worried too much. Mr. Niu must have made arrangements." Chu Qi also knew that Niu Jizong was not easy to talk to, so the prince asked him to contact Niu Jizong. Considering that this man was arrogant, Wang Zinian must have touched him. With a gray nose and an angry stomach, he still had some friendship with Niu Jizong, and he was quite polite to him, but he had to be careful with his words to avoid offending the other party, but there were some words he couldn't remind him: "But , over there in Datong Town and Shanxi Town..."
"Well, the prince is interested, but I have also considered it." Niu Jizong muttered: "There is no need to worry about Datong Town. I have arrangements. Sun Shaozu now controls an army of 20,000 people. Shi Nai cooperates well. The generals below are basically We can all be sure, Shanxi Town is a problem, Chai Guozhu is not very obedient, but I plan to send him to Piantou Pass."
“What’s the reason?” Chu Qi also knew that Niu Jizong could not do anything to Chai Guozhu.
Chai Guozhu was transferred from the deputy commander-in-chief of Jizhen Town to the commander-in-chief of Shanxi Town at the beginning of this year. Originally, Feng Tang wanted Zhao to take the post, but the court felt that Feng Tang's reach was too long, so they rejected Feng Tang's suggestion and chose him instead. Chai Guozhu, who had a good relationship with Feng Tang but was not directly related to Feng Tang, went to Shanxi Town.
“Simple, Su Nang Kou Bian.” Niu Jizong said calmly.
These Mongolian tribes and border generals all have overt or covert connections. Just as Niu Jizong knew that Bu Shitu and Su Nang had contacts with Feng Tang, Feng Tang also knew that Su Nang and Lin Dan Batur also had dealings with Niu Jizong. The secret is the same, so among the Tumut people, Feng Tang secretly supports Bu Shitu, while Niu Jizong secretly supports Su Nangtai Ji.
Chu Qi instantly understood that this was just like the prince told the Chahar people, Niu Jizong also told the Tumote people that they were coming to invade the border, so that Chai Guozhu and the main force of Shanxi Town could be dragged to the west, making them unable to attack the Xuanfu This side of town poses a threat.
It is no wonder that the imperial court was so wary of these border generals. They controlled large armies, but all of them had close contacts with the Mongolian noble chiefs. Every war was a war, and as long as it was not a matter of life or property, they could all play a role in it.
"That being the case, it couldn't be better." Chu Qi finally finished asking the questions, "The Lord Niu has arranged it so well, the prince can rest assured."
"The prince is relieved, but Niu is still not at ease." Niu Jizong smiled half-heartedly, "Mr. Chu, can't you reveal a little more about the prince's arrangements at Tiewang Mountain? Just tell him that Niu should be ready. , it’s hard to say whether it’s useful or not, is the prince so sure?”
Chu Qi smiled bitterly, "I only know part of the prince's arrangement. I have told Mr. Niu everything that needs to be said. What I can't say, or what I don't know, I have nothing to say."
"Mr. Chu is not happy." Niu Jizong pretended to be dissatisfied. "They are all loyal to the prince. Does Chu Gong think that now that the Niu family is on the boat, they can still get off the boat?"
"Mr. Niu, I can only say that the prince's arrangements are very careful and everything that can be considered has been taken into consideration." Chu Qi also noticed the dissatisfaction on Niu Jizong's face, and finally lowered his voice and said: "I am thinking about the emperor's great treasure. There are quite a few people in this position, but there are still some who do not know their own abilities, so let them go ahead and give it a try for the prince."
