Volume Three, The Rise of the Ming Dynasty, Chapter 28, I Don't Know
. Nonsense, how could it be such a coincidence?" Now even the old and stern were too old to be calm.
Tian Cheng opened his mouth, but said nothing. He asked several people just now, and several Yulinweis were in Jinan. He naturally knew this place name. There was no taboo about this place name. On the contrary, they were a little overreacting. If someone didn't believe it, he would ask it soon, and he didn't need to explain it.
Wang Fu also opened his mouth in surprise. If it were in his previous life, he would not believe these things at all, but in this life, he could even travel through time, so what would be more incredible than this.
"Your Majesty, it's still early now. Otherwise, order the army to move forward and set up camp ten miles." Yang Longyou suggested carefully. There was also a dragon in his name, and he didn't think that this place was the hindrance of himself.
Although Wang Fu felt like he had a thorn in his heart, if the camp that tens of thousands of Yulin Guards spent nearly an hour to build was abandoned because of a place name, and then move forward and rebuilt, I am afraid that all the officers and soldiers will be unjustly told. What is the difference between him and a foolish monarch: "No need, let everyone camp normally. As the emperor, I have the blessing of the gods and the evil people avoid it, so why fear a place name."
Two clear sounds came, and Tian Cheng suddenly slapped himself in both mouths: "Your Majesty, I blame me for being too much, go and ask what place name is."
"Didn't I say that I am the emperor and I will be blessed by the gods in the six directions." Wang Fu's face looked unhappy.
"That's right, I'm just confused. The emperor is the emperor, so naturally he will not invade all evil. It's better for the emperor to issue an order to change this place to another name." Tian Cheng had just slapped twice, and his face changed to a flattering expression.
Everyone looked at Tian Cheng's face and looked at Tian Cheng's face and they had no intention of objecting to Tian Cheng's proposal. Everyone felt that this place name was a little bit small, and changing it was no big deal. Wang Fu thought for a while and said, "I see that this mountain is green and full of spiritual energy. Birds and beasts in the mountains are still a treasure mountain. It's better to call it Baoling Mountain. The place where the army camps is called Baolingpo."
"Baoling Mountain, Baoling Po, this name is good." After Wang Fu said that, Tian Cheng was already screaming. No matter what the emperor named, Tian Cheng must applaud.
"Your Majesty, it's better to order the entire army to let everyone know the name of this mountain and this slope." Qian Qianyi said.
The emperor ordered the emperor to do so. After a while, the sound of horse hooves sounded. Teams of commanders shouted: "The emperor has an order. The mountain in front has been named Lingbao Mountain. This place is Lingbao Slope!"
Many Yulin Guards were puzzled about the actions of the commander-in-place soldiers. Some people were thinking about it. Soon tens of thousands of Yulin Guards knew about these two new names. Although everyone may not know whether changing the name is meaningful. However, even if it is the emperor's will, everyone will naturally call it by the new name.
After changing his name, Wang Fu finally felt that the thorn seemed to have left his body. He couldn't help but laugh at himself. It turned out that he was also a coward. He was actually afraid of such a vain thing.
The sun began to set. The Yulin Guard had completed the entire barrack construction. The food in the house was ready. The military camp was filled with the sound of Yulin Guard chewing loudly. Although he didn't like the taste of the food, Wang Fu still felt his stomach growling. After beating everyone around him, Wang Fu returned to his camp.
As soon as Wang Fu returned to the tent, he immediately smelled a strong fragrance in his nose. It was obviously not like bacon, but like fresh chicken. Wang Fu's nose couldn't help but sucked: "What's the smell?"
"Your Majesty, this is a stewed mushroom on pheasant." The eunuch Li responded with a smile on his face. He was holding a large porcelain basin in his hand. In the porcelain basin, a cooked pheasant was lying. There were more than a dozen fresh mushrooms around the pheasant, which made people drool at a glance.
Wang Fu was surprised to see it and asked, "Where did it come from?"
"When I was going back to the emperor, it was Zhou Laoshi who suddenly appeared in the grass when he was camping. Zhou Laoshi saw that the pheasant was dumb and stupid, so he grabbed it and offered it. When he offered it, the pheasant was not even injured. It was probably because the Landlord saw that the emperor had worked hard to fight the war and gave it to the emperor to repair his body. Otherwise, the pheasant would not even fly."
Zhou Laoshi is a guard with a very good skill. It is not difficult to catch a pheasant with weapons, but it will be difficult to even lose a hair. However, Wang Fu understood that tens of thousands of troops camped in this wilderness, and it might just be trapped by the pheasant. It was not that it could not run, but it had nowhere to run: "Bah, what kind of land grandpa came to the ground, I guess it was a scared pheasant. Well, I finally had a good time today."
"That's right, the emperor is still wise, and he can see it at a glance."
Wang Fu was too lazy to listen to Li Di's flattery and sat down on the chair. Tian Cheng had already put a small bowl of chicken soup in a spoon from the porcelain basin. Regardless of the hot chicken soup, he blew a few sips and drank it in one breath. He immediately stretched out his tongue, but he muttered in his mouth: "Scent, Master, it smells really good."
The necessary procedures for the emperor to eat to prevent anyone from poisoning. Although Wang Fu felt that he was safe, he did not abolish this procedure. There are no antidotes and no equipment for gastric lavage. Once poisoned, he will be killed by seven or eight lives.
After waiting for nearly half a quarter of an hour, the chicken soup was almost cold, and seeing that Tian Cheng showed no sign of poisoning, Wang Fu started to enjoy it. Perhaps it was because he hadn't eaten fresh meat for too long. It was also because the wild pheasant was originally fragrant. The pheasant that he had eaten in the palace before was so unwilling to smell it made Wang Fu's appetite. He even used two bowls of rice, ate the pheasant, meat and soup, and then cleaned it and cut it off and stopped eating.
Tian Cheng and Li were very worried when they saw the emperor eating too much and immediately persuaded each other. If the emperor was too full and had a stomachache after being swelled and stomachache, they would not be able to afford it. No matter how they persuaded each other, Wang Fu still drank two big bowls of rice and a large bowl of chicken soup.
However, after eating, Wang Fu immediately felt a little regretful, and his stomach began to swell. Fortunately, it was not too swelling and could barely bear it. Wang Fu was planning to go out for a walk to digest food. A guard came to report to Xia Wanchun, the leader of the scout camp, asked for a meeting.
"Well, let him come in."
"Yes." Not long after the guard went down, Xia Wanchun had already stepped into the camp and knelt down and replied: "I am here to see the emperor, long live my emperor! Long live! Long live!"
Several years have passed. Although Xia Shouchun is still not old, his face was still green and unseen. He had two beards on his lips, which seemed much more mature and majestic. A few years ago, it was Xia Wanchun who got the bribery account book of the Huai'an Salt Envoy Si Tongzhi that the emperor caught all the corrupt officials in the salt affairs system and set off a storm of integrity, which made the administration of the Ming Dynasty gradually clear. From then on, Xia Wanchun entered the emperor's eyes. He completed several stages of jumps in more than two years, and changed from a hundred households to a general. Now nearly a thousand people in the scout camp are under his command, which is equivalent to the eyes of the entire central army.
"Your dear, please be calm.
”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Have the whereabouts of the Tartars leaving the city army yet?"
"Return to the emperor, the empress is incompetent. The scout has arrived at the city of Jinan, but there is still no large Tartar army." Xia Wanchun replied with his head down.
Although Wang Fu had almost guessed the result from the moment Xia Wanchun came in, he still couldn't help but feel a little disappointed after hearing it, and asked patiently: "What's the situation of the east and west armies?"
"Returning to the emperor, the army on the east route has occupied Jiyang, while the army on the west route has just reported that it has just occupied Qihe, Changji and the two counties. They have asked the local residents in detail, and there are no clues about the retreat of a large number of Tartars."
Wang Fu nodded: "This is good news. It shows that the Tartars are still in our encirclement. As long as they do not jump out, unless the Tartars can keep eating or drinking, and hide and move, they will always be exposed and send orders to continue. The scouts will still search with all their strength tomorrow."
"Yes, my servant follows the order."
After saying a few more words, Xia Wanchun stood up and left. After Xia Wanchun retreated, Wang Fu stood next to the map hanging in the tent and looked at it. The candles had been lit in the tent. Tian Cheng quickly brought a candlestick to the emperor. Seeing the Ming army situation map marked on the map, Wang Fu couldn't help but mutter to himself: "Where will Mandahai be?"
What the Ming Dynasty is afraid of is either fighting against the other side, or avoiding the fight. Although Shandong was occupied by the Qing army for more than three years, most of the living here are still Han people, with more than 100,000 troops gathered here. If an army of more than 10,000 people could not be found where they would hide, and when they arrived at the grassland in the future, Manchuria would even look for needles in a haystack, what should we do?
Wang Fu made up his mind to annihilate most of the Manchu forces in the pass, otherwise if the Manchu main force came out of the pass, the long logistics line alone might crush the Ming Dynasty. Unfortunately, Manchu may not be obedient and would stay in the pass to fight with the Ming Dynasty. Now he can only eliminate Manchu one by one.
As the emperor and the Yulin Guard were desperately looking for the army of Mandahai, no one expected that the army was now hidden in a valley only five or six miles away from the central army, like a poisonous snake, waiting for the opportunity to give the Ming army a fatal blow.
After lying on the map, Wang Fu shook his head and threw his eyes away from the map. The three armies, with at least thousands of years of scouts, still could not find any traces of people. How could he find them by just a few glances on the map?
