Daming One Piece

Chapter 184 The Chance of Grand Superintendent Yuan
Ningyuan City!
When Fang Cunzhi and Zhuzi arrived at Ningyuan City, there was already a turmoil here, and all kinds of information were gathered here. No one knew what happened to Jiannu, but one thing is certain is that ——For the plague, Daming is also afraid,
The only thing that makes them feel at ease is that between Ningyuan and Jiannu's so-called Dajin Kingdom, there is a hundred miles of uninhabited wasteland, and there are several long trenches on the wasteland. These should be able to stop the plague from Jiannu's side .

Of course, there will be no Jiannu going here. The Mongols among them will flee to the grassland, and the Jurchens will escape the [-] guards and flee to the so-called "ancestral land" between the white mountains and the black waters. What is certain is that They will definitely not flee to Daming.

What the hell is going on there?
As a supervisor, Yuan Chonghuan has always been concerned about the plague that occurred in Jiannu. Although various information was collected in front of his case, the information prevented him from making an accurate judgment, but the arrival of Fang Cunzhi answered his question. many doubts.

"So, now Donglu is full of people infected with the plague."

"Returning to the governor, nearly ten thousand people are infected with the plague every day. When the little ones left the city, the city was already like a dead city. The Eight Banners were stationed in the city. Many people had already fled Shengjing. Some nobles from the East escaped from Shengjing."

Fang Cunzhi reported truthfully.

"This is very similar to the information received before."

Yuan Chonghuan nodded and asked.

"Then what about the old chief Nurhachi?"

"Reporting to the supervisor, it is said that he was also infected with the plague. When I was out of the city, I heard that someone in the old chief's palace had already contracted the plague and died. Even several Baylors were infected with the plague and died tragically one after another. "

God bless!
Yuan Chonghuan's heart suddenly burst into excitement. This is the best news, and it can even help him get rid of the immediate crisis.

It was a fluke to win the battle of Ningyuan at the beginning of the year. If it hadn't been for Mao Wenlong's sneak attack on the hinterland of Jiannu, how could the old chieftain withdraw his troops hastily after robbing Juehua Island of a large amount of military supplies and besieging Ningyuan within twelve days.

If there was no enemy, Ningyuan City would have fallen long ago.Of course, he, Yuan Chonghuan, would never say that it was all due to Mao Wenlong. In fact, in his opinion, Mao Wenlong's so-called "great victory" was nothing more than Yuan Chonghuan's credit.

If it wasn't for the fact that the old chieftain led the main force of the eastern captives to besiege Ningyuan, how could he, Mao Wenlong, succeed? Now the world only knows the victory in Liaoyang, and how many people know that the old chieftain was defeated in Ningyuan?
Of course, when reporting to the imperial court, he specifically said-"The Hongyi cannon is powerful, and it rotted for more than ten miles in one shot. The minister personally fired the cannon and hit the old chief, and the old chief was injured and retreated."

Whether he was injured or not is not important, what is important is to let the court know that he, Yuan Chonghuan, had made great contributions in Ningyuan, especially at that time - his relationship with the Donglin Party was too close, he was not only a member of the Donglin Party. Lin party member Han Yu's student is also Qian Longxi's close friend!For many things, Qian Longxi and Han Yu protected him, and he was promoted by Hou Xun, a veteran of the Donglin Party.

Is he the Donglin Party?

This is not important, what is important is that the court's attack on the Donglin Party must not involve him.

This will be after learning that the old chief was infected with the plague, and the first thing Yuan Chonghuan thought of was... If the death of the old chief was linked to the previous injury, wouldn't it be a great contribution? ?
Thinking of this, Yuan Chonghuan's eyes brightened, and he continued to ask Fang Cunzhi and the others about the situation in Shengjing City. In fact, he mainly wanted to ask how many people were infected with the plague, especially those high-ranking officials like Baylor, how many were infected.

After answering the supervisor's questions one by one, Fang Cunzhi reported.

"Master, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Now Jiannu is plagued by the plague. The governor just sends a large army to take Shengjing. How can Jiannu, who is seriously infected with the epidemic, be the opponent of the governor? At that time, Liaodong will be able to return to the city." It's mine."

As a native of Liaodong, Fang Cunzhi certainly hoped that the officers and soldiers would regain Liaodong as soon as possible, so that he would be able to return to his hometown in Shenyang. However, after he finished his words, what he got in return was only a light sentence.

"Well, Master Ben understands, the military affairs are important, and Master Ben has his own plans."

Yuan Chonghuan said casually.

"You have made great contributions to the country this time. This governor will accept the contribution from the court for the two of you. Come and reward the two of you with 50 taels of silver! Take them down and have a good rest."

After the two Jinyiwei spies who came back from Shengjing went down, Liang Ji at the side said with a smile on his face.

"Congratulations to the supervisor, congratulations to the supervisor."

Liang Ji was his staff member. When he served as the supervisor, Liang Ji and several fellow villagers came to congratulate him, and stayed by his side as his staff. Yuan Chonghuan has always been trusted by Yuan Chonghuan. In the Hongguang court in Nanjing, he took advantage of his position to preside over the "reversal" of Yuan Chonghuan's case.As soon as his words fell, Deng Zhen also congratulated him.

"Master, this is a very good thing. Now Jiannu is trapped by the plague. After a great epidemic, the army and people in the country must be empty. At that time, the governor will send his troops eastward to recover Liaodong. It's just around the corner!"

Yuan Chonghuan said with a frown.

"That's the truth, it's just..."

Looking at Liang Ji and Deng Zhen, he said again.

"Now Wei Xie uses the excuse of Wang Gong's rebellion to arbitrarily arrest the members of the Donglin party. Although Yuan is not Donglin, he has a close relationship with everyone in Donglin. Now Wei Xie does not hesitate to use torture to extract a confession, so that he is arrested. Those who use it to bite others, if they bite Yuan Mou, I'm afraid... Yuan Mou will have no chance to regain Liaodong!"

Yuan Chonghuan's words made Liang Ji and Deng Zhen frowned. Of course they knew about the "reverse case" that happened in the capital, and they also knew that Wei Xie was arresting people everywhere. Naturally, they were also worried about Master Yuan. Will be involved in it, once being bitten by others and involved in it, then what will be waiting for Governor Yuan?
"Feixin, how do you say this matter should be handled?"

"This……"

After pondering for a moment, Liang Ji said.

"Master, if you want to avoid being dragged down by this matter, there is only one way!"

"Oh? In what way?"

"Send troops!"

"Send troops?"

Deng Zhen said urgently.

"According to what they said, now Liaodong is full of plague-stricken people, and if they rashly send troops, wouldn't that make the soldiers of the army seek their own death?"

"As long as we seize this opportunity and regain Liaodong, even if someone tries to replace the supervisor as Donglin, so what?"

Liang Ji did not answer Deng Zhen's question. In his opinion... the lives of those soldiers are not important at all.

"Recovering Liaodong is a great achievement. Without this merit, you can't protect the governor! Please make a decision as soon as possible. Now is a great time to recover Liaodong!"
