Fenghou

Zheng Ping has always been discriminated against by the Jurchens these days, so he got angry and yelled loudly while riding on the horse.

Thousands of soldiers shouted with all their might, and the large ship loaded with food moved slowly on the snow.

Although the speed of the boat is very slow, it is still much faster than other large boats. Zheng Ping grew up by the sea and has experience. He found dozens of round logs to pad the bottom of the boat to make the boat roll on the wood, and the speed is much faster. .

They were originally ranked No.12, but now they are ranked third, and they are about to overtake the big ship in front of them again.

Even Wanyan Wushu noticed this scene, and he came to inspect it on the road himself, and he quickly discovered the clues. There were actually rolling logs under this big ship, and dozens of soldiers were responsible for replacing the rolling logs. No wonder it was faster than other ships. .

Wanyan Wushu pointed his whip at Zheng Ping, "Call that Han general to see me!"

1Chapter 16 Leaked Secrets

The soldiers brought Zheng Ping in front of Wanyan Wushu, Zheng Ping reluctantly cupped his fists and saluted, "The villain sees the commander!"

"What's your name? Where are you from?"

"The young general is called Zheng Hui, from Hejian Mansion."

A general from the Jin army came over and whispered something in Wanyan Wushu's ear, Wanyan Wushu stared at Zheng Ping sharply, "You are from Hejian Mansion, why would you send food for Pingliang Mansion?"

Zheng Ping was also very nervous. The man in front of him was the coach Wanyan Wushu, and he was not such a fool.

"The villain has a clan brother who did well in the Jingyuan Army, so I ran to join him and served as the head of the capital for several years. In the Battle of Fuping, the villain's clan brother died in battle, and the villain fled to Pingliang Mansion married a wife there, life has been rather difficult recently, just as Pingliang Mansion is recruiting strong men, so the villain signed up and was appointed as the commander of the two thousand grain guards."

"What ability do you have to be appointed as the commander?"

"The villain can calm these 2000 people, and they all listen to me."

Wanyan Wushu was somewhat interested in Zheng Ping, he pointed at the big boat with his horsewhip, "How did you think it would be easier to tow the boat by placing logs on the ground?"

"Reporting to the coach, my hometown is by the sea. After we build a ship, we have to lay a layer of rolling logs and then push the ship into the sea. This is common sense in our place."

"But you are the only one who thinks of so many people! Yes, a certain family sees that you can hold not only two thousand people, but also 5000 people. If you send the supplies to Xin Daying as soon as possible, the commander will reward you!"

Zheng Ping thought he had been exposed, but he didn't expect to be rewarded in the end, which made him secretly relieved, but he was also annoyed when he thought about it. Zhang Jun, the top coach of the Song Army, never paid so much attention to him like Wanyan Wushu.

Wanyan Wushu immediately issued an order to promote Zheng Ping's method, and the transportation of supplies, food and grass was accelerated. In just five days, Jin Bing's new camp was built in front of Heshangyuan, which was the former Jinbing's camp in Heshangyuan.

At the same time, Zheng Ping was promoted to the command of the Concorde Army, and the number of the Concierge Army under his jurisdiction reached 5000. This was a treatment that Zheng Ping could never have dreamed of.

But at this time, Zheng Ping's troubles came quietly.

In a large tent, the top generals of the Confederacy Army are holding an emergency meeting.

The Xie Cong army was also divided into left and right armies. The top general of the left army was Douzhi Zhang Zhongfu, who was originally in command of the Jingyuan army. After the Battle of Fuping, he surrendered Wanyan Wushu.

Because of his firm opposition to the entry of the Qi army into Guanzhong, this person was appreciated by Wanyan Wushu and promoted to the governor of the capital.

The commander of the right army is called Li Yanqi, and there are more than [-] subordinates in the army.

Zheng Ping was under the jurisdiction of Zhang Zhongfu, and in the big tent, more than a dozen commanders gathered together.

Zhang Zhongfu said solemnly: "I just came back from the commander-in-chief and got a shocking news. Chen Qing's subordinates have joined the Xie Congjun. There are 300 people in total. The leader is Chen Qing's confidant General Zheng Ping. Start a strict internal investigation, and count all the generals surnamed Zheng."

Zheng Ping slapped the table, stood up and said angrily: "His grandma's, my surname is Zheng, so why should I be the first to check on me?"

Zhang Zhongfu quickly comforted him and said: "Zheng Tongzhi is too worried. You are a general promoted by the fourth prince himself. How could he suspect you? It has nothing to do with you. I estimate that he brought two to three hundred people, which should be the following. Heads and the like are more likely to be suspected."

Another commander, Li Nong, said: "The humble official thinks that the surname Zheng is definitely wrong. How can the enemy army lurking in will use their real name, at least they will change their surnames, such as Zhang Ping, Zhao Ping, Wang Ping, etc. It is more likely. "

Everyone laughed and said, "Li Tongzhi is right, he must have changed his name."

Zhang Zhongfu laughed dryly and said, "The coach didn't say what his surname is now. It's because I didn't think carefully. He should have changed his name. Don't be angry with Zheng Tongzhi. It must have nothing to do with you!"

Zheng Ping's heart was pounding with nervousness. How could Jin Bing know about such a secret thing as sneaking into Jinying himself?And he also knew that he had sneaked into the Golden Camp, and there were spies around the commander!Who could it be? It couldn't be Yang Zaixing!Only this kid is the most suspicious.

Zheng Ping was thinking wildly in his heart, but his face was as if nothing had happened: "There are too few clues, so there is no way to investigate. I wonder what other clues the commander has provided?"

"There are no details. The commander asked us to investigate by ourselves. We must find Zheng Ping in three days, otherwise everyone here will have no good fruit to eat."

After a pause, Zhang Zhongfu said again: "There is another important piece of information. Chen Qing never withdrew to Dasan Pass. After the battle of Jiwangpo, he should have retreated westward. That idiot Wanyan Alupu insisted that Chen Qing has returned to Dasan Pass, and now there is a lot of trouble, Chen Qing is on the periphery, and our Union Army will not have a peaceful life."

Hearing that Chen Qing was on the outskirts, the big tent suddenly exploded. You must know that Chen Qing's reputation is already as famous as Wu Jie, surpassing all other Song army commanders. The person who is most afraid of Wanyan Wushu is Chen Qing. At the mention of this name, everyone in the big tent became emotional.

"Chen Qing is on the periphery, and the goal must be the logistics camp. We must let the commander know this."

"To strengthen the defense along the transportation, 5000 guards are definitely not enough. At least [-] people must be added."

Zheng Ping also slammed his fist on the table and shouted: "I heard that Chen Qing is particularly good at assassinating generals. Each of us needs to increase our personal guards. 50 people are definitely not enough. We must increase to at least 500 people, and at least 300 people."

Increasing the number of soldiers is related to everyone's vital interests!Everyone followed suit and shouted: "Zheng Tongzhi is right, we need to increase the number of soldiers, otherwise our lives will not be guaranteed!"

Everyone chattered, Zhang Zhongfu waved his hands and shouted: "Everyone be quiet! Please be quiet!"

The big tent gradually became quiet, Zhang Zhongfu glared at Zheng Ping, "Let's talk about the matter of the soldiers later, let's talk about the business first, the commander has given the task of exterminating Chen Qing to the Alliance Army, and our left and right Alliance Army have to act. But at the same time, we have to keep 1 people to continue guarding the camp, which two rulers are willing to stay."

Before Zhang Zhongfu finished speaking, Zheng Ping raised his hand first, "The commander asked me to build a new grain depot, and I will definitely keep it."

"Okay! Zheng Tongzhi stays, what else?"

Only then did the crowd react, and they scrambled to raise their hands to ask to stay. Only when his head was kicked by a donkey would they want to encircle and suppress Chen Qing.

"Li Nong also left you! You are in charge of patrolling the perimeter of the grain depot, so you don't have to participate in the encirclement and suppression of Chen Qing."

……

After the discussion was over, everyone came out of the big tent one after another. Zheng Ping walked a few steps quickly, patted Li Nong on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I have a bottle of good wine hidden there, let's have a drink together?"

Li Nong said with a smile: "You are so courageous, Zhang Dutong has repeatedly ordered you not to drink alcohol, and you actually hid a bottle of wine?"

Zheng Ping curled his lips disapprovingly, "If you have the ability to ban the Jurchens from drinking, since you can't do it fair, leave us alone!"

"It's true, the Jurchens drink every day, there's nothing wrong with it, we Han people will go to war if we drink alcohol, in such a cold day, how can we patrol at night without drinking?"

Li Nong is in charge of patrolling the perimeter of the grain and grass camp. He also has a lot of resentment towards the prohibition order. Since Zheng Tongzhi wants to make friends with him, he is also happy to have a drink.

1Chapter 17 Borrowing a Knife

Zheng Ping’s camp is half of the Fourth Army’s, consisting of 30 large tents. The Jurchens have ten people per big tent, and the Xie Congjun’s camp has 50 people crowded into one big tent. The treatment is not bad now, if there is no war , That is, [-] people squeeze into a large tent, and the treatment is very bad.

Zheng Ping was promoted to be in command, and he had an independent big tent, and fifty personal soldiers. Naturally, he was pretended by his Song army subordinates. With this commanding status and fifty personal soldiers, it would be much more convenient for Zheng Ping to deliver news. .

The two sat down in the big tent, Zheng Ping took out a bottle of sake from the box, asked the soldiers to warm the wine, and asked the cook to serve some side dishes.

Not long after, when the food and drink were served, Zheng Ping filled a glass of wine for Li Nong, and said bitterly: "You actually said in front of me that you want to arrest someone with the surname Zheng. I wonder if Dutong secretly guessed that I am that Zheng Ping?"

Li Nong smiled and said: "That's not true. I probably didn't expect that if I suspected brother Zheng, I wouldn't notify you to participate in the discussion, or in other words, I would arrest you on the spot."

"It's a question of idiots. That Zheng Ping will use his real name to lurk? Thanks to Brother Li for reminding Du Tong, otherwise my surname Zheng would be a serious crime."

"This is actually common sense. Du Tong was obviously scolded by the fourth prince and his mind was in a daze, so he didn't think about this problem."

Zheng Ping and Li Nong touched a glass of wine, and asked with a puzzled look: "You said such a secret thing, how could the fourth prince know?"

"I've heard a little bit about it."

Zheng Ping suddenly asked with a smile of great interest: "Tell me, I am most interested in this kind of thing."

Li Nong smiled mysteriously, "I heard that this morning, the golden soldiers patrolling the city of Dasan Pass picked up a letter of arrows. I guess that's what happened."

Zheng Ping widened his eyes, "Are there any spies in Dashan Pass?"

"It should be that someone betrayed this matter, but it seems that the information is not complete. For example, how Zheng Ping got into the barracks was not mentioned. It is estimated that the person who leaked the secret is not clear, but only knows that there is such a thing."

Zheng Ping's brain turned quickly, "So it's not the people around the commander, so who is this bastard who betrayed himself?"

Li Nong took a sip of wine and asked with a smile: "I heard that you are going to build a new granary?"

Zheng Ping's thoughts were pulled back, and he quickly asked: "Tomorrow I will take people to build a granary. It is said that the management is very strict inside. Brother Li, can you remind me of the taboos to be careful about?"

"Actually, I just want to remind you of this matter. You must know such trivial things as not being allowed to bring tinder. I don't need to remind you. The key is that your subordinates must not run around and will be executed."

Li Nong looked at the door of the big tent, leaned forward and said in a low voice: "I'll tell you a secret, the Jurchens have secret sentries hidden in the granary, you can't see them, but they can see you, your men just need to move a little If you cross the line and run around, you will be shot with an arrow. This matter is very secret, and I am afraid that even the general does not know it. If I did not see it with my own eyes, I would not know that there will be a secret ambush."

Li Nong left and left. Zheng Ping squinted his eyes and sat on the chair thinking for a while, then ordered a soldier, "Go and find Wang Jian!"

Not long after, a general in his thirties walked into the big tent, and without saluting, he asked in a cold tone, "What does Zheng Tongzhi want from me?"

This Wang Jian was a thorn in Zheng Ping's subordinates, and also a commander. He was Zhang Zhongfu's confidant. Originally, Zhang Zhongfu recommended him as the commander. As a result, Wanyan Wushu personally appointed Zheng Ping as the commander and squeezed him out.

Zhang Zhongfu had no choice but to appease him, let him bear it a little longer, and wait for the right opportunity to promote him.

Wang Jian was very dissatisfied and kept causing all kinds of troubles. Zheng Ping wanted to kill this bastard a long time ago, but he had no right to kill generals above the commander-in-chief, so he had to report to the commander-in-chief. Will not spare myself.

Zheng Ping was not afraid of causing any trouble, but he was afraid of ruining Chen Qing's important affairs.

Now the news about him hiding in the Golden Army has been leaked, and this Wang Jian has secretly investigated him. Although he didn't find out anything famous, he knows that he brought two or 300 people to participate in the Pingliang mansion.

It is very likely that he would think of Zheng Ping lurking in the golden soldiers with two or three hundred people.

This is a big loophole, and Wang Jianming will know about it from Zhang Zhongfu the day after tomorrow. Zheng Ping is very worried that Wang Jian will find out this loophole. There is no time, and he must get rid of this person in time.

Zheng Ping laughed dryly and said, "Go build the warehouse tomorrow, and you will take [-] brothers from the camp to take charge. I will oversee the work then, so you don't have to be as lazy as last time!"

"It's not our turn to build the warehouse tomorrow!"

Zheng Ping glared, "I'm the control, so go if I tell you to go, if you dare to disobey the military order, see if I don't tie you up to see Du Tongzhi, how will Du Tongzhi explain?"

Zheng Ping pinched Wang Jian's braid, so he couldn't refuse anymore. He stared at Zheng Ping viciously for a while, snorted coldly, turned and left.

Zheng Ping watched his back go away, squinted his eyes and said to himself: "This person will definitely spoil my affairs!"

……

In the morning of the next day, Zheng Ping brought a dozen of his men to the granary. The granary camp was located between the sheep and horse camp and the military camp. All the soldiers and supplies are piled up in the granary camp.

There are not enough warehouses now, and fifty large warehouses need to be built, and Zheng Ping's army will undertake the construction task.

The granary camp is guarded by the Jurchens. Under normal circumstances, Han people are not allowed to enter, except for the construction of granaries, but they must also undergo strict searches. Fire and any weapons are not allowed. Anyone who violates the order will be shot and killed, and must be within the specified range During construction, no random running is allowed.

Even Zheng Ping, the commander in chief, went through a strict search before letting him into the granary camp. He led his men down to the northeast corner, which was the construction site. First, ten warehouses were to be built on this open space.

Two thousand soldiers were busy building the framework of the warehouse, and the commander Wang Jian stood aside on horseback to supervise the construction of the soldiers.

Zheng Ping urged him to go forward immediately, and said to Wang Jian with a dry smile, "Just now I met Ma Canjun, and said that today the southwest corner is going to feed materials. You are more familiar with that than me. Go and see, where is the best place to put the materials."

"The lowly position should supervise the construction, and the control should let others do it!"

Zheng Ping stared and said angrily, "I can't call you, can I?"

Wang Jian hated so much that he had to grit his teeth and said, "It is stipulated that you are not allowed to leave the construction area. If you encounter a Jurchen patrol team along the way, I can't explain it to you."

Zheng Ping took out the control gold medal and handed it to him, "Take my gold medal and go, and the Jurchens won't embarrass you."

This ruling gold medal was something that Wang Jian dreamed of. He caught it with trembling hands, staring at the ruling gold medal, with a hint of greed that could not be concealed flashed in his eyes.

Zheng Ping was afraid that the night would be full of dreams, so he urged him: "Ma Canjun is still waiting there, go!"

Wang Jian turned his horse's head, called two soldiers to follow him, and galloped towards the southwest corner.

He was riding on a horse, and two soldiers ran behind the horse. Zheng Ping narrowed his triangular eyes and stared at Wang Jian closely.

After running less than three hundred steps, several cold arrows were suddenly shot from the tops of several warehouses. The arrows were powerful and extremely fast. Wang Jian was unable to dodge, and hit five arrows in a row. Fall down.

The two soldiers were so frightened that they lay on the ground, not daring to move.

Zheng Ping chuckled, "It turns out that the dark whistle is hiding on the roof of the warehouse."

He suddenly became worried again, he couldn't bring in the fire, how could he set fire to the barn by himself?

Chapter 148 The Tiger's Lair

The death of Wang Jian caused an uproar, and the governor Zhang Zhongfu became furious. He immediately found Wanyan Wushu and demanded that Zheng Ping be severely punished. In the afternoon, Wanyan Wushu sent someone to call Zheng Ping over.

In Wang's tent, Wanyan Wushu's back was straight and mighty, and his big copper bell eyes stared at Zheng Ping, "Zhang Dutong accused you of using a knife to eradicate dissidents. Tell yourself, what happened to Wang Jianzhi's death? "

Zheng Ping coldly glanced at Zhang Zhongfu next to him, straightened his back and said, "Wang Jian deserves to die!"

"you--"

Zhang Zhongfu was extremely annoyed, and said to Wanyan Wushu: "Commander, he admitted that he deliberately killed Wang Jian, he..."

Wanyan Wushu waved his hand, stopped Zhang Zhongfu's words, and stared at Zheng Ping with sharp eyes like a leopard, "Why did you kill him?"

"He is my subordinate, but he doesn't listen to my orders, and he fights against me everywhere. I can't kill him, and I can't transfer him away. This morning in the granary, I accused him of making too slow progress, and he contradicted me again, saying that he is At this speed, if you are not satisfied, you can find someone else to do it, I am really angry... If the commander thinks that I have done something wrong, he can directly remove me and kill me."

Wanyan Wushu was stunned, "There is such a thing, if you offend the next one, why don't you just kill him?"

"I'm going to ask Zhang Dutong about that!"

Zheng Ping glanced at Zhang Zhongfu, and said with a sneer, "Wang Jian was originally Zhang Dutong's confidant. If Zhang Dutong hadn't supported him, he would dare to talk to me like that?"
