Chapter 473: Donglin Army descends from the sky
The old man looked up at the "body" of the Daxing Emperor who had passed by slowly, and his face was calm.
However, the officials on the side were still a little worried, so they said, "But...what if the court still refuses, or bargains? You must know that the money is the treasury, not the treasury. What should we do if the new master refuses?"
"Don't be afraid of refusing." The old man said lightly: "If they really do this, then let Zhao Er incite a mutiny. Let the mutiny kill some people and act as if they want to rebel. At that time, wouldn't the court obediently send people to send the money here immediately and order us to suppress the mutiny immediately?"
"There are bandits everywhere in this pass. The Donglin Army is gone. Jiannu is still rampant. Is there anyone in the Guanning Army willing to obey the orders of the court? At this time, if you don't give money, I don't have the courage to let them down. Now I just want to lose a sum of money. But if you can't bear to give money, what will you not be able to bear in the future? It's hard to say."
The official immediately showed admiration and said excitedly: "Ming Ming has great opinions. Since that's the case, then the lower official will submit a memorial."
"Don't be anxious." The old man sighed and said, "When your Majesty's coffin is sent into the pass, and the order will be delivered. Your Majesty will be mourned again. The whole country will mourn. All the soldiers of Liaodong will shed tears. From today on, all the civil and military officials from Liaodong will mourn for 30 days, and will be kind to the Emperor of Burma."
"Yes." The man hesitated for a moment and said again: "It's just that the officials are still a little worried. The factory guards cannot not know what happened in Jinzhou. They will report to Wei Zhongxian..."
The old man sneered: "The reason why that nine thousand years old is so powerful is because of Emperor Daxing. Now that Emperor Daxing is gone, he is just a dog that is stray, so why are you afraid!"
"If he is smart, he will naturally know to turn a blind eye, but if he is not smart, he really wants to cause something, haha... how many so-called eunuchsmen are... willing to go along with him? If it really changes the sky, in this palace... it is not that Wei Zhongxian, who has kept his word."
The carriage and horse that looked over the coffin passed by.
The old man stood up and flicked the dust on his body with his hands. A servant from behind took a cloak and walked forward to wrap it up.
The old man seemed a little tired, shook his head and sighed, "You had to do these things at the beginning. Since you were determined to do it, you can't look forward to it. Only by burning your boats can you succeed. You, cherish your own life when doing big things, and forget your righteousness when you see small profits. How can you achieve great things by doing this?"
"Let's rest assured, the sky cannot fall. Your Majesty's coffin should be set off immediately and sent to the capital. Let's set off today... In the capital, I don't know how many people are looking forward to sending the corpse."
The cold wind blew the old man's cloak and he immediately got into the sedan chair.
The people who worship here did not stand up until the old man stood up.
When the old man's sedan chair left, the others still refused to disperse and were whispering something. Some were secretly happy and some were worried.
…………
At this time in Jinzhou City, there was a lot of mourning clothes, so even the opera troupe was not allowed to come out to perform.
All tea shops are blocked.
However, the Guanning Army performed its duties conscientiously.
This is a turbulent time, so the inspection is particularly strict.
The guerrilla general took hundreds of elite soldiers and went out of the city to patrol as usual, and needed to go to Ningyuan to change defenses.
Often at this time, some gentry and Liao generals took this opportunity to set off with the army.
The juren Zhao Wenyi was at this time when he was full of ambition. He needed to go to Ningyuan to inspect his own business, so he had already agreed to leave the city with the guerrilla general Wu Dingyong.
Zhao Wenyi's sedan chair was walking slowly, so he had to abandon the sedan chair and ride a horse.
In fact, Wu Dingyong is a distant relative of Wu Xiang, but Wu Xiang's affairs are not implicated in him, so he is still highly valued in Liaodong.
He and Zhao Wenyi walked together. At this time, Zhao Wenyi said: "I heard that Jinzhou is asking for salary from the court. This time the lion spoke loudly, right?"
"Ha, I don't know about this."
"I don't want to know either, but..." Zhao Wenyi smiled and said, "The Zhao family has some business. Last year, some Chen Mi came from Jiangnan and wanted to change military rations. This matter... If I didn't get the news in advance, I would be taken first. When the emperor was in great service, I would have settled a stone in my heart. A few days ago, the emperor instructed Yuan Chonghuan to bully us honest and honest people everywhere. Not only did he wrongly accuse a lot of civil and military greed, but even people like me were also affected. I almost got locked up with some people. If I hadn't had a few old acquaintances in the Ministry of War, I would have been really unlucky."
"This is the emperor, why are we going to do what the people do? Without us, can he really sit safely? Isn't this the matter of Emperor Shi and Sui Yang? But now it's better. The emperor is in great progress, and I can let go of my hands! General Wu, if there is new rice distributed by the court in your camp in the future, you have to greet me and come to exchange it. Then... hehe..."
Wu Dingyong smiled and said, "How many people can I change here? There are only more than a thousand people, I'm afraid I'll disappoint Mr. Zhao."
Zhao Wenyi said, "Although there are more than a thousand people, there are more than 4,000 servings. You ate three thousand people alone..."
Wu Dingyong coughed and said, "Okay, okay, see you later."
The two were talking and laughing, but Zhao Wenyi felt extremely comfortable at this time. Then he scolded the eunuch party and the Emperor of Tianqi. Of course, the retention program was to scold Zhang Jingyi.
The main reason is that Zhang Jingyi’s teaching of the fields in Fengqiu was too scary. For Zhao Wenyi, it was too terrible. Although it had not been promoted, it made him feel dangerous.
Zhao Wenyi finally sighed and said, "The Emperor of Daxing was a warrior and appointed a treacherous slander, and even tried to conquer Jianshu personally. Now, he has received retribution. I just hope that another wise lord will come up with us, kind people, and we can live some peaceful life. If we still occupy our people's land and compete for profit with the people, and be in a warrior, the Ming Dynasty will be really over."
Wu Dingyong only smiled. He was a martial artist, and he didn't have as much to say to Zhao Wenyi. He only knew who wanted to cut off his wealth. He raised his sword and went to kill him.
At this moment, suddenly... the sound of horse hooves came from a distance.
As soon as the sound of horse hooves came out, a scout rushed back quickly and said, "General, general... not good, a military horse appeared in front of him..."
An enemy attacked...
Wu Dingyong's expression changed suddenly, and he and Zhao Wenyi looked at each other.
What they brought this time were only hundreds of people, and the periphery of Jinzhou should be extremely safe.
"This Jiannu people are traitorous. Could it be that they are here to attack at this time? We have just..." Zhao Wenyi said in a panic.
"How many people are there?" Wu Dingyong calmly asked the scouts who came back.
The scout said, "Thousands of people are riding on horses."
Wu Dingyong was shocked and immediately said, "If it were thousands, then it would definitely not be a horse thief. In most cases, he was really Jiannu..."
The scout said, "It doesn't look like Jiannu... humble... humble."
Wu Dingyong raised his whip and stared at him, "If you have something to say, if you have farts, let go."
So the scout didn't dare to hesitate anymore and hurriedly said, "Those people, looking... like the Donglin Army, under the banner of the Donglin Army."
Zhao Wenyi, who was standing beside him, immediately screamed: "How is it possible, how is it possible! Didn't the Donglin Army be destroyed? Where did this Donglin Army come from? Could it be... a ghost?"
But Wu Dingyong said seriously: "Don't panic, there must be something strange about it. What's the use of panic? Come on, be on guard, and see who it is."
After saying that...
Hundreds of people formed a formation.
They surrounded the periphery with big carts and dismounted one after another.
After all, hundreds of cavalry encounter thousands of cavalry. In this case, it is unwise to play cavalry hedge with the opponent. It is better to set up a defensive here first.
So Wu Dingyong ordered the scout to visit again.
But it was too late, the other party came and went like the wind.
Soon, countless black riding shadows appeared on the horizon.
Immediately afterwards, the riding shadow approached and ordered the orders to be prohibited.
Wu Dingyong said: "Go and find someone, shout to the other party, and verify who the other party is."
The person who was going to shout had not yet set off.
On the other side, the opponent's cavalry had formed an encirclement.
Wu Dingyong was a little panicked. He said that those who came were not good, and those who were good did not come.
The other party directly takes an attacking attitude, which is clearly not a question of communication.
He looked out from afar and saw that those people dressed a little like Donglin Jun.
Immediately afterwards, teams of people wearing military coats dismounted.
After all, the Donglin Army is not good at cavalry warfare. Once attacking, it still likes to push directly on two legs.
"It's not a Jiannu..." Wu Dingyong made a conclusion and his scalp was numb.
If it were the Jiannu people, they would have been flying and then shot arrows.
Wu Dingyong immediately ordered with a tense face: "Hold on, hold on, let someone take the banner of Guanning Army, and see how the other party reacts."
Zhao Wenyi hid behind the cart, shivered, and repeatedly said: "Impossible, this is impossible..."
On the other side, the Donglin Army has launched an attack.
They slowly advanced, shrinking the encirclement smaller and smaller, and then...
Suddenly, on the snow field, waves of gunfire began to shoot.
They move forward three steps and shoot alternately.
Poor, most of these wooden carts cannot withstand bullets.
The advantage of queuing up to shoot is that it can directly and intensively attack.
Soon, people began to fall to the ground and howls came out.
Wu Dingyong immediately said: "Get on the horse, get on the horse...break out."
He seemed to regret dismounting the defense.
Seeing the other party's formation, he finally gave a miserable face and issued an order to break through, and then said to Zhao Wenyi: "That's right, this is the Donglin Army, this is the Donglin Army, this... what happened...... it's over, it's over..."
