Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 400 Sudden (add more)
In Huangmei County, Huangzhou Prefecture, Li Dingguo's troops in the Beijing camp are stationed here, as well as his original subordinates, that is, Wu Sansheng and others, are also here.

Wu Sansheng and the others couldn't understand the sudden passing of the military order to stop the attack.

Hearing that Li Dingguo, who had received a military order to attend a meeting, had returned, Wu Sansheng and others rushed out of the city to greet him.

To their surprise, there was another army that followed, and it was under Fang Guoan's department.In addition, Li Ruolian, commander of Jinyiwei, also came over.

Is this preparing to attack Wuchang?When Wu Sansheng and the others saw this, they were all guessing in their hearts, and hurriedly greeted Li Dingguo to ask about the situation.

Li Dingguo let Fang Guoan and Li Ruolian advance into the city, and then he said to Wu Sansheng and others: "The Liaodong Jian captives have started to make trouble again. Your Majesty has issued an order to transfer Uncle Zhongwu back to the defense capital. He is probably going to Shanhaiguan. I am Zhongwu. Under Bo's command, he will naturally go back."

Hearing this, Wu Sanxing and the others couldn't help being very surprised, but it wasn't too surprising.

What surprised them was that the war in Huguang was going smoothly now, so if the army was transferred back like this, would they still be fighting here?

Not surprisingly, such things often happen, even if they were thieves before, they have experienced it several times.Fighting and fighting, the imperial army was transferred back to deal with Jianlu, and then wiped out by Jianlu.

Therefore, after hearing this, Wu Sanxing had something to say.

Li Dingguo saw it, and without waiting for them to speak, he said to them first: "I will report to the governor and get his consent. You have two choices, and it depends on how you choose!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at him and listened to what he said next.

I just heard Li Dingguo say: "The first option is that you go north with me, and with a high probability, you will belong to my subordinates to participate in the battle against the Jianlu; the second option is that you stay here, but the next There will be a big battle, and you will be reorganized first, and then you will be dismantled and mixed with other troops."

This matter to be reorganized has already been mentioned at the beginning, so Wu Sanxing and others are not surprised.

After Li Dingguo finished speaking, he looked at his brothers to see how they would make a choice.

Relatively speaking, Jianlu is more brutal, at least because of his reputation.Even if Jianlu was defeated in the battle of Jizhou, in the eyes of most people, Jianlu's combat effectiveness is definitely stronger than that of Zhang Xianzhong's troops!
Therefore, if someone chooses to live here and accept the adaptation instead of facing a more vicious enemy, Li Dingguo can understand.

However, after he finished speaking for a while, Wu Sanxing and Wang Zhibang said almost in unison: "Let's go with eldest brother!"

The governor is an official position granted by Zhang Xianzhong, and now he has surrendered to the imperial court, so naturally he can't be called.

Everyone is brothers, so they are naturally willing to call Li Dingguo big brother.In fact, several of them are older than Li Dingguo.However, this does not prevent them from calling Li Dingguo that.

When the other people heard the two of them speak, they all followed suit and wanted to go with Li Dingguo.

Obviously, in their eyes, it doesn't matter even if the enemy is a ferocious Jianlu. The most important thing is that they can follow Li Dingguo.

Seeing this, Li Dingguo couldn't help feeling a little moved.

In fact, there was one thing that he didn't tell the brothers in front of him.

In the military discussion, the governor actually considered letting Li Dingguo stay.

However, Li Dingguo thought to himself that he would face Zhang Xianzhong next.This cannot be persuaded to surrender, and the emperor also decreed that Zhang Xianzhong was not pardoned.If he had a choice, he would not fight Zhang Xianzhong directly on the battlefield.

Therefore, Li Dingguo finally decided to go north to fight Jianlu, and he also brought up his original subordinates to Ma Shiying, saying that going north to fight Jianlu would be more handy if he had familiar subordinates.If they are willing to follow him north, they hope to take it away.

As mentioned above, Ma Shiying is actually very concerned about the situation in the capital.He also noticed that Emperor Chongzhen had a good impression of Li Dingguo and the others.

In addition, Li Dingguo's request was also reasonable, so he agreed.

Of course, as for whether the emperor will make other arrangements after arriving in the capital, he doesn't care, and he doesn't care.

At this time, when Li Dingguo saw Wu Sansheng and others, he expressed his willingness to go with him, and said to them without saying a word: "In this case, we should clean up as soon as possible, and go north immediately after handing over the defense."

Later, after Li Dingguo entered the city, he reported the situation to Li Ruolian.

Li Ruolian heard this, and said with a smile: "You guys are so loyal! If that's the case, I'll come here for nothing. That's fine, let's go north together!"

He came here originally to monitor the reorganization of Li Dingguo's subordinates, and to arrange a mixed reorganization with Fang Guoan's subordinates.Since Li Dingguo's men were going to fight Jianlu, there was no need for him to stay.

Soon, the northbound team set off and hurried to Fengyang to meet up.

After arriving here, Wu Sansheng and others discovered that Liu Wenxiu's side was in the same situation as Li Dingguo's side.His subordinates also chose to go north with Liu Wenxiu.

However, the purpose of going north is to fight Jianlu. Therefore, when the two armies first rest in Fengyang, they will weed out the weak and retain the strong.

The subordinates of Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu each retained 5000 people.The large troops still stay in Fengyang, those who are willing to stay in the army can join other armies, and those who don't want to stay in the army can be resettled.

Besides them, Wu Sangui's troops were also ordered to transfer to the north.In the end, Zhou Yuji led nearly [-] troops back north.

Among them, some were originally Huang Degong's men, soldiers who participated in the Battle of Jizhou.

As for Huang Degong himself, according to Emperor Chongzhen's will, he still has to stay in Fengyang to sit in charge.

Zhou Yuji led the army back to the north, just after the autumn harvest, so there was no need to carry a large amount of military rations, and there were supplies along the way. After passing Xuzhou, ships were recruited in the canal, and the speed was accelerated by both water and land.

Finally, at the beginning of October, after a little less than a month, I finally arrived at the capital.

........................

Besides, Emperor Chongzhen was busy with infrastructure construction, water conservancy, cement roads, railways and other things to restore people's livelihood. Unexpectedly, Xie Xuelong, the governor of Jiliao, sent an urgent report saying that there was a change in Jinzhou Jianlu. Large-scale troops crossed Ningyuan and invaded Ningyuan to these places in front of Shanhaiguan, and a lot of food was robbed.

However, in the hands of Xie Xuelong, only the white pole army defending the city was unable to fight Jianlu in the field, so he asked the capital for help and asked for more troops.

Regarding the situation outside the pass, Emperor Chongzhen was also blindsided.

History has changed a lot. Even with Liu Weichao, there is no way to cheat and know the situation of Jianlu.

When Emperor Chongzhen received the military information, he immediately held an imperial meeting.

His ministers, including chief assistants He Fengsheng and Zuo Maodi, all went up to request that part of the elite troops be transferred back from Jiangnan to deal with Jianlu's change.

They were afraid that the defense line of the Great Wall was not strong enough. Once the Jianlu broke through again and ravaged the land of Gyeonggi, all the reconstruction would be wasted, which the court could not afford.

Especially steel plants, railways, etc., are all defenseless and built outside the city.

After all, a victory in the Battle of Jizhou did not make them feel that Jianlu was vulnerable.The psychological impact of Jianlu's victories over the years is still playing a big role.

Not to mention, most of the army that defeated Jianlu in the Battle of Jizhou, or the main force, was transferred to the south to quell the chaos.

Even though many of these court princes were from the south, they were still afraid of the threat of Jianlu, so they wanted to transfer some elites from the south.

Regarding this situation, Emperor Chongzhen would naturally ask Liu Weichao for his opinion.

On Liu Weichao's side, he did not directly give any opinions. According to Liu Weichao, after all, he was separated by a world, and he came directly to give advice, and he was afraid that he would talk about it on paper.

Of course, despite such a statement, Liu Weichao would feel that there are some shortcomings if he doesn't point out Jiangshan.

Therefore, his proposal to Emperor Chongzhen was that, to be on the safe side, it would be better to call back some of the elite.

Besides, it has been a year since the battle of Jizhou, and Jianlu will definitely cause trouble, either at this time or at that time, and he will not be safe.

If it is possible, fight Jianlu again and hurt Jianlu again, then Jianlu will be at ease again for a while.

In short, during this period of time, Jianlu deserves a beating!

In addition, Liu Weichao also analyzed it to Emperor Chongzhen, reminding him not to forget that the most fundamental purpose of the Jiangnan side is to put down the riots and at the same time to rectify the place.

If the army quells the chaos too quickly, the local government will not have time to rectify, and one goal will be missed.

Although it is said that the place can be rectified after the event, but without the army in charge, I am afraid that the effect will not be very good.If possible, use the pressure of the thieves to rectify the place under the command of the army, the effect will be the best!
Emperor Chongzhen felt that it made sense, so he finally decided to transfer back to Zhou Yuji and Wu Sangui's troops.

The army on Sun Chuanting's side, because the defense line was too large, could not allow the bandits to return north and rush into the Central Plains, so they did not transfer.

In addition, he was worried that Xie Xuelong would be more defensive than offensive. In a word, he was worried about Xie Xuelong's ability to lead troops.

Of course, the best thing is to call Sun Chuanting back to host, but now Sun Chuanting's affairs are also very important, and he doesn't feel relieved to hand them over to others.

In the end, Emperor Chongzhen made the decision to transfer Du Yinxi back to serve as the governor of Jiliao, while Xie Xuelong was changed to be the governor of the three sides.

Because at this time, he had already received a quick report from Du Yinxi, and knew the situation in Qin and Shu.After Xie Xuelong changed to the governor of the three sides, he only needs to keep it!
On this day, while he was busy, Wang Chengen came to report that Zhou Yuji's troops had arrived in the capital.
