Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 470 Heavenly Wizards
"Report, Your Majesty, you are still twenty miles away from Shanhaiguan!"

"Report, Your Majesty, you are still ten miles away from Shanhaiguan!"

He continued to report that when Emperor Chongzhen was still ten miles away from Shanhaiguan, Hong Chengchou did not dare to neglect. He immediately tidied up his appearance and led a group of people from the Governor's Mansion out of Shanhaiguan to greet him.

Ten miles away, for the infantry, it still takes some time.However, this time, it was the Hussar Battalion and the Jingying Cavalry Army that had been reorganized for more than half a year, with a total of more than 5000 cavalry, led by Emperor Chongzhen to Shanhaiguan.

Not long after, Hong Chengchou saw a long dragon appearing in front of Ye Bushou's continued report.There were about ten riders in a row, marching neatly, and it was obvious at a glance that the soldiers of the Ming army had excellent horse control skills.

The war horse trotted very rhythmically, and the pennant was hunting with extraordinary momentum.When the captain of Jinyiwei, who opened the way, separated to the left and right, he could see the imperial driver of Emperor Chongzhen.I saw Emperor Chongzhen wearing battle armor, reflecting the shining light under the sunlight, like a god of war in golden armor.

"My emperor, long live, long live, long live!" Seeing this, Hong Chengchou and others immediately greeted the holy driver loudly.

Emperor Chongzhen was in a good mood. He waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty, please come in and talk!"

With each victory of his imperial conquest, his power has become more and more serious, and there has been no voice of dissuasion from the imperial court against the emperor's personal conquest.Mostly, it was the emperor's will, and the relevant courtiers in the court made preparations for the emperor's expedition.

This personal conquest by the royal driver was already the way that Emperor Chongzhen left as soon as he wanted to.

It didn't take long for Emperor Chongzhen to occupy Hong Chengchou's governor's mansion and sit on Hong Chengchou's original seat.As for Hong Chengchou himself, he could only stand at the bottom, including the civil and military officials from the original Shanhaiguan side, as well as the various chief soldiers and supervisors who accompanied him on the expedition.The lobby of the Governor's Mansion, which was a bit empty at first, suddenly seemed a bit crowded.

Wu Sangui was also among the military officers who accompanied him on this expedition, and he returned to Shanhaiguan. He glanced at the people standing in the lobby. They were all the highest-ranking civil and military generals in Shanhaiguan, but not many people knew him anymore.This made him feel very emotional: I have only been away for a few years, and that's it.The familiar people are no longer there, and no one is more respectful to me, for fear of offending me.

At that time, here, the strongest was the ancestral army headed by my uncle, and all those who had some strength in the army were related to the Zuwu family.Sometimes, a word from my uncle carries more weight than the governor of Liaodong or the governor of Jiliao, and even in the past, he was able to lead them to fight against the edict.

But now, those people are gone.Even my uncle didn't know what he was thinking. He surrendered after being unable to defeat Jianlu.However, Jianlu did not accept the surrender and instead killed him.As a result, there is no chance to even enter the Martyrs' Shrine.

Now standing here, whether it is the hussar battalion under the imperial horse supervisor or the cavalry army of the Beijing camp, they are much stronger than the original ancestral army.If the uncle knew about it underground, he wouldn't have surrendered to Jianlu again, right?
No matter what, since he dared to kill his uncle, this time, he must take revenge!

When Wu Sangui was thinking about it, he heard the movement and came back to his senses. He saw that it was Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiliao, who came out to play against the emperor. Meaning, should Shanhaiguan prepare food and supplies on the spot?"

Speaking of this, before Emperor Chongzhen could speak, he complained: "Before, the minister was ordered to resettle the Karaqin tribe, and the Guan Ning army attacked the grassland, which consumed a lot of food. This year's harvest has not been obtained, and the food stored before It was also used in the Battle of Tashan, no matter how crowded I am here, there might not be much. Please let Your Majesty know about this."

Although the emperor's majesty became more and more serious, Hong Chengchou knew that before the war, he always spoke freely.I am right according to the facts, the emperor will not mind.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen didn't feel any displeasure, but nodded and said, "Of course I know the situation at Shanhaiguan, and I don't expect to prepare much food from Shanhaiguan!"

Hearing this, Hong Chengchou felt a little strange, and quickly asked: "Your Majesty, could it be that this war is just...just a small-scale war?"

He didn't know the overall plan, and originally wanted to talk about small fights, but the imperial conquest, how could it be small fights, so he had to change it to a small-scale war.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen shook his head and said with a smile: "No, this battle is all about feeding on the enemy. Our army doesn't need much food and supplies!"

Hearing this, the civil servants and generals in the lobby, as well as the supervising army were very excited.A war in which you can feed on the enemy is the most refreshing war.Not only do I not have to worry about preparing food, but I also don't have to think about transporting food, which can save a lot of trouble.

After hearing this, Hong Chengchou was happy for a while, but he was still a little confused and said: "Your Majesty, Liaodong does not seem to be rich, and if you want to attack the strong city fortress, I am afraid that cavalry alone will not be able to do it. This..."

This time, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Emperor Chongzhen with a smile, and he said, "Who said I was going to attack Liaodong?"

Speaking of this, he saw that the people below were all stunned, including the generals who followed him out of Beijing.Knowing that they didn't know the situation and were still confused, they knew it was time to explain, so they smiled and said: "On the Liaodong side, I have sent an order to the Dongjiang Army before, and now the fighting in Liaodong is fierce!"

"The more than 1 infantry troops of the Yumajian Office set off from Jinzhou to attack Haizhou a few days ago. The Gaizhou Jianren were afraid of being smashed with money and dared not resist. They have already withdrawn to Haizhou. Our army laid down After Gaizhou, while resting, make a move to attack Haizhou."

"And the army led by Lu Qing is also attacking Xinjin, but it is just a false soldier, and it will not really attack Xinjin."

"Also, the Dongjiang Army's [-] cavalry troops are now galloping across the hinterland of Liaodong, killing Tartars and destroying grain fields."

"The Jianlu people have been driven crazy. They urgently summoned the cavalry sent to the grassland, together with the cavalry from all the grassland ministries, to return to Liaodong to aid Liaodong. They want to fight the Ming Dynasty decisively!"

Hearing Emperor Chongzhen talking eloquently there, introducing the situation in Liaodong, and the crowd waiting, he was a little dumbfounded.Just listening to them, they felt that Daming was aggressively counterattacking Liaodong, and that he was going to knock down Liaodong in one go.If the slave chieftains on Jianlu's side heard urgent reports from all over the country, it would be strange if they weren't scared!

However, they were also a little confused about Emperor Chongzhen's introduction. He Renlong was short-tempered and asked curiously: "Your Majesty, I wonder how you used money to hit Gaizhou Jianlu? Is it money?"

When the others heard this, they immediately looked at the emperor, wanting to hear the answer.Just now the emperor said that he used money to beat Jianlu out of fear, and they were also very surprised. How did he use money to beat Jianlu out of fear?
Emperor Chongzhen laughed when he heard this. This He Renlong is actually thick and thin, and he added a sentence of silver at the end of the sentence, in fact, it was just to enliven the atmosphere. He must know in his heart that he definitely didn't want to smash Jianlu with silver. of.

With this thought in mind, he pointed at He Renlong and said: "Of course not, they used hundreds of Hongyi cannons and general cannons for a whole day to bombard Gaizhou City, and other artillery bombarded Gang Gang. Attack the Jianlu in the car camp, and then use hundreds of thousands of enemies to throw them into the city. After this battle, not to mention the money spent on ammunition, I don’t know how many artillery pieces will be scrapped. Do you think these are all Is it money?”

Upon hearing this, the generals present, as long as they knew the power of artillery, could not help but mourn for Gaizhou Jianlu.The emperor was right, he was indeed scared to throw money at them!

Thinking of this, they were very emotional again.Just a few years ago, the border troops could not even pay their salaries.But now, it has reached the point of killing the enemy with money.

The emperor is showing his power, and the future is changing with each passing day!

Hong Chengchou paid more attention to another matter. After the laughter in the hall died down a bit, he played: "Your Majesty, if Governor Lu uses false troops to attack Xinjin, will it be difficult for Jianlu to take the opportunity to counterattack?" withstand?"

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen shook his head and said with a smile: "No, on Xinjin's side, the Azig leader who was sent back last time is just bluffing. He doesn't know how many soldiers and horses there are on Lu Qing's side. I dare not really go out to fight in the city."

This kind of slave chief who was captured once by the Ming Dynasty has lost his previous courage and will always doubt whether the Ming army has any conspiracy.Emperor Chongzhen could guess this from the feedback from the Class A eavesdropping seeds on Azig.

Hearing this, Hong Chengchou's eyes finally brightened, and he analyzed the whole battle situation and said: "In this case, Gaizhou has been captured, Haizhou is threatened, Jinzhou is also attacking, and the cavalry of the Dongjiang Army is overwhelming the hinterland of Liaodong. No wonder Jianlu wants to transfer back the cavalry army on the grassland immediately. What does His Majesty mean, is that the Hussar Battalion and the Jingying Cavalry Army take advantage of the opportunity of Jianlu and the main cavalry troops of various Mongolian ministries to return to Liaodong to wipe out all the ministries on the grassland?"

Upon hearing this, the commanders of the hussar battalion, including those supervisors, couldn't help drooling.

Although they are already expensive as the commander-in-chief and supervisor of the army, the material of this era is not rich after all.There are still relatively few days when you can't corrupt the military salary, just rely on normal income, eat meat every meal, or eat meat casually.Especially beef, it is rare to eat it last time.

However, in the last battle with the emperor in Guihua City, various cavalry troops raided the camps of the Chahar and Urad tribes. The cattle and sheep could only be killed and the meat brought back because they could not return quickly.That time, eating mutton and beef in large pieces was really enjoyable!

Thinking of this, they immediately looked at the emperor, hoping that this time, they would really go to wipe out the tribes in the grassland, and just eat at the enemy. Such a day, it's really not too exciting!

Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen did not disappoint them, and said with a smile: "That's right, after the Jianlu cavalry army and the Mongolian cavalry returned to aid Liaodong, we will kill the grassland. Invading the land of Gyeonggi, no matter what, we must let them pay with their blood and avenge the people of Ming Dynasty!"

"Yes, revenge!" He Renlong echoed loudly after hearing this, "We want them to pay in blood, kill their people, eat their cattle and sheep, and rob their horses!"

Relying on his image as a rough man, he spoke a bit unscrupulously, but he expressed what the military commander was thinking. At least, that was what Wu Sangui thought in his heart.Cutting off Jianlu's right-hand man first would be equivalent to avenging his uncle and the others!

When other generals heard this, they also shouted, demanding that the eastern Mongolian tribes, those who invaded the capital of the Ming Dynasty and worked in collusion with the captives, should pay with their blood!As for the civil servants, although they did not shout, they nodded.

Hong Chengchou did not nod, but looked at Emperor Chongzhen with admiration in his eyes.

Such a war seems to be very simple in the hands of the emperor.But for him, who is familiar with military affairs, this war is very difficult for the commander in charge of overall planning.

To lure Jianlu to send troops to the grassland, the various ministries of the Ming army will fight here, and Jianlu and the Mongolian cavalry will return to help, and then send troops to the grassland here. , it is very likely that you will fall short, or even lose money without stealing chickens.

Only the emperor can handle such a large and complicated battle with ease, as if everything is under control, and even the movement of Jianlu can be predicted.

In this regard, others thought that Jin Yiwei's spies were powerful and able to spy on the news.However, as the leading minister on the front line of the Ming Dynasty, he didn't feel the presence of Jin Yiwei's spies.The most abnormal thing is that even if Jin Yiwei's spies can find out a lot of news, it is impossible to pass it out so quickly!
Want to say through carrier pigeons?It is possible to have a fixed point on Daming's side.But in the hinterland of Liaodong, and even on the grasslands, it is simply impossible, and it can only be transmitted by manpower.

That is to say, the reason why the emperor was able to accurately grasp Jianlu's movements and deal with them accordingly was entirely because the emperor had a clear understanding of the details and could deduce Jianlu's reactions everywhere.To put it more mysteriously, it is a magic trick!

Monstrous... No, no, no... The genius of the sky, the genius of the sky, a rare talent in a thousand years!Hong Chengchou couldn't help feeling so emotional in his heart.

In the next few days, Hong Chengchou saw how lightly the Emperor Chongzhen lifted his weight. From what he saw with his own eyes, no one came to report to the emperor, but the emperor began to issue orders one after another.Some sent pigeons to pass orders to the Dongjiang Army, and some sent fast boats to Gaizhou and so on.

Of course, on the Shanhaiguan side, since the arrival of Emperor Chongzhen, all martial law has been imposed. Except for lieutenants and soldiers, other people are not allowed to enter and not to leave.

Emperor Chongzhen was like a fierce tiger, lurking in the mountains and forests, waiting for the prey to appear in front of him at the right time, and pounced on it.

Naturally, Jianlu didn't know about these things.Yue Tuo, Duoduo, and Hauge were still on the grassland at this time, and together with the Mongolian cavalry, they were encircling and suppressing the coalition forces led by Jin Guofeng.
