Chongzhen Chat Group

When Hu Guang heard this, he became less angry. If he continued to argue with this kind of person, he would be like him. Wait a few days and watch him cry!

Seeing that Hu Guang didn't answer him, Ma Fugui seemed to be a little more arrogant, so he said again: "Don't think that you will be fine in the capital. Even if Jianlu can't attack the capital, this young master and the second son of the Fan family are family friends. They are Fans." My family is also rich and powerful in the north. As long as I ask someone to tell you, I can make you unable to live or die! Dead monk, do you dare to leave your temple name?"

Hu Guang was really angry and funny after hearing this. He even dared to threaten himself, so he immediately replied: "Okay, I live in the Forbidden City. If you can, come and see how you can make me unable to live or die!"

"..." Ma Fugui was speechless after hearing this, and then mocked, "Tell the truth if you have the guts, but what about the Forbidden City? You think you are the emperor!"

Hey, I am really the emperor! Hu Guang was thinking about it, and when he was about to speak, Ruhua's clear and sweet voice said with a hint of anxiety: "Little monk, don't tell the truth. He is talking about the Fan family of Shanxi merchants. You can't afford to offend him. Don't tell the truth." !”

Shanxi merchant Fan family? Hu Guang was very sensitive to the term Shanxi merchants. A name immediately flashed in his mind and he couldn't help but ask: "Is the Fan family Fan Yongdou?"

After he finished speaking, he thought it wouldn't be such a coincidence!

Unexpectedly, when Ma Fugui heard this, he said proudly: "Haha, don't be afraid! Fan Yongdou is my uncle's family friend. When he comes to Suzhou, he is always polite to my father. If I just say a word, he will deal with it." Can't you be a little monk? If you have the guts to leave the name of the temple, don't give me nonsense, you can't even make up a lie, and you can still return to the Forbidden City!"

Sure enough, it was Fan Yongdou, who was also connected to a large salt merchant in Suzhou! Hu Guang thought about it, and when he was about to speak, he heard some noise and exited the chat group.

"Your Majesty, General Manchu is requesting an audience!" Gao Shiyue bowed to the side and said.

After hearing this, Hu Guang looked outside the city and realized that while he was distracted, the Jianlu who were attacking the city had already retreated into the distance.

So, he turned to look at Gao Shiyue and ordered him: "Xuan!"

After a while, the sound of sonorous armor came along with the sound of footsteps. The strong Man Gui appeared on the archery tower, knelt on one knee, and played loudly: "The last general Man Gui has seen my emperor, long live, long live, long live!" "

"Ping Sheng!" Hu Guang waved his hand and asked with a smile: "How is the war going?"

What he wanted to ask was obviously not the process, but the casualties on both sides. Mangui naturally knew this, and after standing up, he replied: "Jianlu Mang Gurtai's troops advanced rashly, as if they wanted to take credit, and underestimated our army. They were repulsed by the last general and killed about 300 Jianlu armored men." , thousands of people were injured. Our army killed 832 people, 59 people were seriously injured, and more than 1,500 people were slightly injured."

If it had been anyone else, they would certainly not have mentioned the real reason for Jianlu's unfavorable war situation. Instead, he would have said that he owes the emperor great blessings and relies on his majesty's majesty, and would credit the emperor with the credit.

Man Gui's character also led him to start from a small soldier and eventually lead others to reach today step by step with military exploits that cannot be ignored. If it had been anyone else, with his ability, I'm afraid he would have been the mainstay of the army.

Zhou Yanru, who was standing next to him, was filled with joy after hearing this. He immediately bowed and said, "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty for our army's great victory. This is due to your majesty's dragon power, which made the captives..."

Hu Guang waved his hand, directly interrupting his flattery, and then just looked at Man Gui and said calmly: "The casualties of defending the city are greater than those of attacking the city. What can Man Qing do to change this?"

"Ding, the achievement value is +1, from the general soldier Mangui!"

Hu Guang was slightly startled by this unexpected prompt, but he soon realized that it was probably his reaction just now that combined with Mangui's character that made him admire him. Haha, this Mangui is really real, I have always been very pragmatic!

Man Gui's face was serious, and against the somewhat embarrassing background of Zhou Yanru, he loudly replied: "Your Majesty is wise, the city defense preparations are insufficient, the Beijing camp lacks training, and most of them are old and weak, the weapons are not refined, and the morale is low. These are all casualties in this battle." It’s more of a reason than attacking the city and building captives.”

"The general will strictly issue military orders and deploy city defenses to prevent the captives from taking advantage of them." When Mangui said this, he immediately said angrily, "The general has just conducted a random inspection and found that more than half of the firearms in the army are It is a defective product. The city defense equipment has been urged many times, but it is far from what is needed. There are also casualties in the army, and the general does not know how to provide compensation. If the general insists on forcing them with strict military laws, it may damage morale. "

As soon as he opened his mouth, he directly complained to the Ministry of Industry, the Internal Supervision Bureau and the Beijing Camp, and asked for a pension at the same time. If it were anyone else, I am afraid that he would not be able to do this kind of thing, so he would be the only one in the world.

Hu Guang recognized his attitude and immediately nodded and said: "I've helped you solve these problems, what else is there?"

"There are not enough guards in the city, so your Majesty ordered to replenish them with the people. The slaves in each mansion are afraid that they will not be suppressed enough and will not listen to the orders of the general!"

When Hu Guang heard this, he couldn't help but shouted angrily: "Is the Shang Fang Sword I gave you vegetarian?"

The reason why Mangui specifically brought this up is that these domestic slaves are not from ordinary families, but are the domestic slaves of all the famous people in the capital, ranging from ordinary officials to the six ministers, nine ministers, and the royal family. No matter how straight-tempered he is, he still has some scruples when facing such a powerful force.

After Hu Guang scolded him, he frowned slightly, and he could understand Mangui's difficulties, and immediately added: "In this way, the matter of strengthening the people will be arranged by Dongchang. You only need to tell Dongchang how many people are needed, and there are Whatever your request, Dongchang will randomly select people from various prefectures and ordinary people to give you a mixed use. Anyone who dares to declare his family status and take advantage of his power will be rewarded with merit, and will be punished by one level if he has no merit. If there is any arrogance Those who are not inferior will be punished by military law! And report them to me, and I will also punish the master for failing to teach his slaves!"

When Mangui heard that His Majesty had such consideration for him, and that this policy could also strictly restrain the servants of each house, he couldn't help but admire him, and immediately agreed.

"Ding, the achievement value is +1, from the general soldier Mangui!"

When Hu Guang heard the system prompt, he couldn't help but feel regretful. The achievement value contributed by one person is limited. It is estimated that an honest person like Man Gui will soon be squeezed out by himself like Cao Huachun.

Mangui was moved in his heart and immediately said: "Among the captives, the slave chief Taiji is the most difficult to deal with. The next attack on the city will be more intense than before. In the end, we will be afraid of accidentally injuring your majesty and other civil and military officials. Therefore, I would like to ask your Majesty to leave the city."

He didn't want anything unexpected to happen to such a good emperor, and regardless of the fact that the emperor had already vetoed his proposal before, he advised him again.

This time, Hu Guang did not object and followed the good advice. He nodded immediately and said: "Okay!"

During the siege, this city head was obviously no joke. The reason why I came here this time is mainly to let all my working men come and see Jianlu's cruelty and the consequences of having no money. If the goal is achieved, then that's it.
