Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 277

Those who dare to betray Daming will be punished no matter how far away they are!

When Sun Chuanting heard this, he immediately remembered Fang Yizao's threat just now that he might be forced to rebel against his ancestors.He couldn't help thinking in his heart, could the emperor be a prophet of the future, so he specially sent an angel to say this?It's a bit ironic that Wu Sangui was sent by the emperor to arrest the traitor.If the ancestor's family really wanted to rebel, what would Wu Sangui do?
Thinking of this, he looked at Fang Yizao, and said in a cold voice: "Aren't you on good terms with Zu Dashou? Most of the people under his nephew are also servants of the ancestor's family, right? In this way, you will forward these letters to them Bar!"

Hearing this, Fang Yizao came back to his senses, and seemed to have regained his composure before he said: "As the governor of Liaodong, I naturally need to appease the generals under my command and let them be loyal to the emperor and serve the country. !"

"Then what did the official say? Don't think too much!" Sun Chuanting said blankly when he heard it, "After you go, tell Zu Dashou by the way that he has been in charge of the farmland for so many years. I hope he can do it himself. All the credit is due, so the food from the past will be used by the military, otherwise, if the official comes to the door in person, the food from the past will also be counted!"

After hearing the imperial decree, he became more confident in his heart, so he didn't hide his words, and explained the conditions directly.

Fang Yizao looked at the angel and found that the angel seemed to be watching a play, so he knew that the angel must be on Sun Chuanting's side, so he didn't say much, let the guards take those packages, and bid farewell to the angel gone.

As soon as he left, the angel said to Sun Chuanting: "The emperor has another explanation, saying that Jianlu has decided to send troops to Ningyuan. I hope the governor will make preparations in advance!"

Hearing this, Sun Chuanting was taken aback: Jianlu has decided to send troops to Ningyuan, the emperor knows such news?how did you do that?
He thought about it for a while, but he couldn't think of it, but he had to treat the emperor's warning with caution.

However, Sun Chuanting thought for a long time and found that he could not effectively use this news.Because he doesn't have a strong army in his hands!Now, if they were to fight in the wild outside the pass, the Ming army would really not be able to defeat Jianlu.

The so-called ambush?That's also impossible.Jianlu's scouting horses are all released far away, and all of them are veterans of war. They will scout out places that may be suitable for ambush.

Unless the strong army is hidden in Jinzhou first, and when the soldiers and horses of Jianlu go deep into Ningyuan, they will defeat their army monitoring Jinzhou, and then cut off their retreat, so that they will not have the opportunity to return to Liaodong and be trapped to death in this Ningyuan. In the brocade corridor.In this way, he might be able to defeat Jianlu.

However, the strongest army in Guan Ning's army is in the hands of Zu Dashou.As far as the present is concerned, it is absolutely impossible for him to use his troops to consume Jianlu.The most important thing is that even if he is willing, his men may not be able to defeat Jianlu.Jianlu who was trapped in the Ningjin Corridor would jump over the wall in a hurry, and his combat power would be stronger than usual.

In fact, Emperor Chongzhen had thought about this method.However, the strongest army in his hands is only three battalions.

In terms of strength in field battles, if he fought head-on with the Manchu Qing army, he was still not optimistic that the three battalions would win.One is because many of the three major battalions are recruits selected from among the refugees. Let them bully the Mongol Tartars and those rogues.

The second reason is that even if they are all veterans, if they just come back from the expedition and head to Liaodong without rest, it will have an impact on their strength.Originally, it might be difficult to build a captive army, but now it becomes even more impossible to win.Unless the three major battalions have been rested, trained, and then equipped with ordnance and armor, and fully armed, then they will have the strength to block the retreat of the Qing army.

Although he couldn't seize this opportunity, in the future, Emperor Chongzhen felt that there would still be an opportunity. Therefore, he never thought of trying the current three major battalions.

When the training of the three major battalions is almost the same in the future, you can do it like this.In addition, if Dongjiang Town has been re-established, it can also take advantage of the time when Jianlu sent troops to Ningjin to harass them in the hinterland of Liaodong.

Besides, Sun Chuanting thought about it for a long time, and there was no particularly effective way to use this news, but it didn't mean that he didn't use this news.

Therefore, he ordered Jin Guofeng, the commander-in-chief of the Ningyuan regiment, and Zu Dashou, the commander-in-chief of Jinzhou, to switch defenses. Jin Guofeng was stationed in Jinzhou, and Zu Dashou was stationed in Tashan.

The reason for doing this is because Tashan is the barrier of Jinzhou.If Jinzhou is to be captured, Tashan must be captured, otherwise it will be right across the Jianlu's retreat route. It will be very inconvenient to transport supplies, such as artillery, gunpowder, and food.

At the beginning of the 12th year of Chongzhen, when Huang Taiji led troops to attack Dorgon in Jinzhou Coying Pass, he attacked Tashan.However, this battle was not fought ideally, but instead it helped Jin Guofeng, the deputy commander-in-chief at the time, and was eventually promoted to the training commander-in-chief of the Ningyuan regiment because he defended Tashan.

Speaking of which, this Jin Guofeng is also a capable general, good at defense.At that time, only less than [-] people were brought with them, and they defended Tashan.Of course, this is also related to Huang Taiji not attacking Tashan with all his strength.

This is recorded in later generations, which means that after Huang Taiji retreated, the Jianlu in Shenyang City learned that "most of the army was defeated, and several generals were also killed. In the distance outside the city, between Zefang and Qu, the crying sounded through the sky." This is an exaggeration.But no matter what, it is indeed capable to defend Tashan with less than 3000 people.

Now, if Jianlu wants to attack Ningyuan again, he must attack Tashan first.Let Zu Dashou lead the troops to garrison Tashan and show his banner. Sun Chuanting doubts that Jianlu will continue to advance to Ningyuan regardless of the rear?

If Jianlu can be dragged to the Tashan side, it will be a good thing to reduce the fighting on the Ningjin Corridor.

Of course, the purpose of Sun Chuanting asking them to switch defenses like this was not all to beat Zu Dashou.But Jin Guofeng's 1 soldiers had already fought almost. Although they later added [-] troops, they didn't have any combat effectiveness.If he is allowed to continue to garrison Tashan, the Jianlu will attack again so soon, I am afraid that Tashan will fall.Therefore, transferring Jin Guofeng to defend Jinzhou, relying on the strong city and sharp guns, can make up for the shortcomings of his recruits.

Another point is that Jin Guofeng is not from Zu Dashou, but from the avant-garde of Shanxi Xuanfu.It is also necessary to support the military forces other than the Zuwu family in the Guanning army.

Sun Chuanting didn't know that after such a change, he saved Jin Guofeng's life.

In the original history, when the Manchu Qing attacked Tashan again, although Jin Guofeng had [-] men, they did not dare to fight in the face of the Jianlu outsiders.If we only defend without attacking, the city will fall sooner or later.In desperation, Jin Guofeng took his two sons and dozens of men to attack him unprepared and destroy Jianlu's intention to attack the city.But he didn't expect to be surrounded by Jianlu. In the end, he and his two sons went to battle and all his men died in the battle.

A few days later, the military order was mobilized for the garrison, and Fang Yizao, the governor of Liaodong, arrived in Jinzhou.

Originally, Zu Dashou had already heard the news, knowing that Sun Chuanting, governor of Jiliao, was going to take him to the knife, and asked him to spit out all the farmland, so he was already very unhappy, and he was going to show Sun Chuanting a little color.

After receiving the military deployment order, he immediately became angry.

Although both Zu Dashou and Jin Guofeng were chief soldiers, Zu Dashou had been the chief soldier many years ago, while Jin Guofeng was just a newly promoted chief soldier.Needless to say, which one is better for stationing in Jinzhou and Tashan, and which has a higher status as a commander in chief!

"Why do you want Jin Guofeng to overwhelm me?" Zu Dashou slapped the table angrily and roared in hatred.

When his brother Zu Dale heard this, he immediately stood up and said to him: "I have already said, just do as before, find an excuse to stage a rebellion, what will Sun Chuanting do?"

"Yes, even if you don't kill him, you still have to humiliate him. It's best to make him so ashamed that he hangs himself!" Zu Dacheng, another brother of Zu Dashou, also said angrily.

"..."

Seeing his brothers shouting, Zu Dashou, who was furious at first, calmed down instead.He sat back on his seat, frowned and said, "A rebellion against wages is the easiest to justify. However, the court has now made up for the previous wages owed; and what Sun Chuanting is doing now is also in the name of Qingtun." The slogan of paying the salary is to find food for the soldiers. In this way, the excuse of the mutiny due to lack of payment can no longer be used!"

He didn't have any conscience to make things difficult for this at all, he just thought that if he did it, he wouldn't be able to leave a loophole.Therefore, he rejected his brother's proposal from this aspect.

After thinking for a while, he shook his head again and said, "If you want to cause a mutiny to humiliate the governor, ordinary things are absolutely impossible. Even if we want to do it, those soldiers will not follow."

If you want to do such a big thing, of course you can't tell the whole world, but secretly encourage a few people to come forward and encourage others to make a mutiny.But as Zu Dashou said, unless he owed it for a long time like arrears of wages and could not live without hunger, then the mutiny would be logical.

"Then what should we do? Or threaten him, and force us to go to Jianlu!" Zu Dale was a little annoyed, he slapped the table, and said in a hateful voice.

His proposal did not attract the support of other brothers.

Therefore, none of them were willing to give up Ning Jin's influence, but defected to Jianlu and found a new master.What they want is to be independent between Daming and Jianlu and become another force.

There was a moment of silence in the back hall, and then the ancestor Dacheng said: "Is there no way? It can't be what Sun Chuanting says, right? Are we really going to Tashan? Anyway, whoever wants to go, I am don't go!"

"I won't go either!" Zu Dabi, who had been silent, echoed at this time.

Zu Dashou looked at them, and suddenly sighed and said: "Sun Chuanting is the governor of Ji Liao, we are mere warriors, and it is not enough to confront him head-on. Now it seems that the only way to see him is Lord Zhongcheng. It is best to let him The supervising army and all the adults in the court impeached Sun Chuanting and removed him, even if he is transferred, we will be fine!"

"Brother, Gao Qiqian's eggless person, I don't know how he did it. It's very different from before. I remember that he had a good relationship with Mr. Zhongcheng before. But now, he's currying favor with that Sun Chuanting. There will be an impeachment report at the meeting." Zu Dacheng said helplessly.

After Gao Qiqian and Prince Qin were over, he took the initiative to hand over the dirty money and was pardoned by Emperor Chongzhen, who sent him to Shanhaiguan to supervise the army.

If in the original history, he colluded with Yang Sichang and Fang Yizao in an attempt to negotiate peace with the Manchus.

However, on this plane, he had seen the emperor's means during the battle of King Qin, and he also knew the importance of Sun Chuanting in the emperor's heart, so he wanted to die to embarrass Sun Chuanting for money and so on.

In this way, in the eyes of Zu Dashou and others, Gao Qiqian is flattering Sun Chuanting and is on Sun Chuanting's side.

Zu Dabi seemed to be calmer, and after thinking for a while, he said to Zu Dashou: "Brother, let's see what Master Zhongcheng is doing. If he can't stop Sun Chuanting's arrogance, you can also ask Ji Yu by the way. After all, their civil servants like fighting each other the most, knowing how to do it in court can make Sun Chuanting go away!"

"That's the only way to go." Zu Dashou also sighed, nodded and said, "Contact Lord Zhongcheng immediately..."

Speaking of this, he paused, seemed to think of something, and then said: "It's a pity that my nephew is not here, otherwise he would go and tell Mr. Zhongcheng that he is the most suitable candidate!"

The nephew he was talking about was naturally Wu Sangui who sworn brothers with Fang Yizao's son.

Zu Dacheng was silent for a while, then suddenly sighed and said: "It's a pity that the nephews are all at Jianlu's side, otherwise, it would be more appropriate for them to go on behalf of us!"

During the Battle of Dalinghe, several sons of Zu Dashou surrendered to the Manchu Qing along with Zu Dashou.But then Zu Dashou fled back, but his sons did not come back, and made a lot of contributions to the Qing Dynasty, including leading troops in the pass to expand the territory for the Qing Dynasty.

When Zu Dashou heard this, he was about to say something when he suddenly heard a servant hurried in from outside and announced: "Master Zhongcheng is here!"

Upon hearing this, Zu Dashou and the others immediately stood up and glanced at each other, feeling that Fang Yizao's sudden approach might have something to do with what they were discussing.So, they immediately went out of the house to welcome them.

It was indeed Fang Yizao who had arrived. Originally, he hadn't arrived so quickly.But when he heard on the way that Sun Chuanting had sent a new military order to Jinzhou, he was a little worried, so he rushed over immediately.

Seeing his tired appearance, Zu Dashou felt nervous, knowing that there must be something important.So, they immediately asked Fang Yizao to speak in the back hall.

Fang Yizao nodded, then turned to tell his personal guards: "Take these packages!"

When Zu Dashou heard this, he turned around and looked a little puzzled. He didn't know why Fang Yizao brought several big packages here and why he wanted to take them to the back hall?
