"hiss!"

All the officials present gasped.

According to convention, the Ming army was fucked every day on ten days, and at most every five days. Now the governor actually asked for fuck every three days, which is really surprising.

However, even if everyone thinks that the Governor's order is difficult to achieve, no one will openly point it out at the banquet. After all, this is a matter of face. No matter how easy it is to speak, the Governor cannot tolerate such acts of blatantly challenging authority.

If they are held a grudge by the governor, will they be able to live in this land of Denglai in the future?

At this time, you must not be the one who makes you stand out when you have a hot head.

As for Yuan Weitai, although he felt it was necessary to strengthen the training of the navy, he also thought that it was too much to do it every three days.

He was not afraid of anything else, but was worried that such frequent exercises would cause disgust and even mutiny among the soldiers.

What civil officials fear most is that Qiu Ba’s troubles are caused by his subordinates. The scholar is indecisive to meet a soldier!

Yuan Weitai decided to wait for the banquet to end and talk to the governor in private to see if he could make some adjustments in the exercise time.

Overall, the welcome banquet was very successful and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Yuan Weitai clapped his hands, and the singing girls who had already prepared came in one after another to dance to cheer them up, pushing the atmosphere to the climax.

...

"Master, there is a man who calls himself an envoy of the Qing army to ask for a meeting with Master!"

In the central army's tent, Li Chengdong clasped his fists and reported to Gao Jie.

"Oh? Where is the other person now?"

"Report to the Grand Marshal, this person is outside the gate. The last general is worried that he will disrupt the morale of the army and dare not let him in."

"Bring him to see me."

Gao Jie said almost without hesitation.

"I will obey the order!"

He obeys Gao Jie and Li Chengdong unconditionally. No matter what order Gao Jie gives, he will follow it.

Not long after, Li Chengdong brought the man who claimed to be an envoy of the Qing army into the central army's tent.

Almost everyone in the account was attracted by his bare head and the tiny rat tail of money on his head.

It's indeed a Tartar!

No, the outline of the facial features should not look like that of the Jurchens, they should be a second Tartar!

The generals stared at this man fiercely, wishing to swallow him alive. They hated these Han people who were accomplices of tigers and were willing to be inferior to others, and they simply threw away the faces of the Han people.

They were all waiting for Gao Jie to give an order. As long as Gao Jie said he would take him down, they would rush forward to tear the man to pieces.

After a moment, Gao Jie asked lightly: "Are you the messenger sent by Zu Kefa?"

"That's right, my general of the ancestor sent someone to see General Gao Da, and wanted to warn General Gao Da, "The cunning rabbit dies and the lack of dogs cook, and the birds are full of good bows."

The man was also straightforward and poured out his words without hesitation.

"That's all?"

Gao Jie didn't seem to have any emotional fluctuations because of these words, and sneered: "Are you finished speaking? Here comes, let's push this bad guy who is witching the crowd and beheaded at the gate and show it to the public!"

A group of military generals were about to rush forward to get people, and the envoy hurriedly said, "General Gao is confused. It is not worth mercy to die a bad life, but General Gao will make a big mistake. If you don't say it far away, why don't General Gao learn from Li Chengliang, Liaodong?"

Li Chengliang was a famous general of the Ming Dynasty, but there were also black spots. His biggest black spot was that he raised the enemy and respected himself when he was in charge of Liaodong affairs, which led to the expansion of the Jianzhou Jurchens.

However, it is not difficult to understand from Li Chengliang's perspective.

During the reign of Li Chengliang, Liaodong had already shown a trend of vassalization. Of course, Li Chengliang had the strength to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, but if he did this, there would be no need to stay in Liaodong.

The court would definitely transfer him elsewhere out of balance.

Then the foundation he had worked hard to manage for many years was equivalent to giving it to his successor.

This is something he absolutely cannot accept.

Therefore, Li Chengliang must not "find his achievements in one battle", but should portray the enemy as a cruel giant beast. Li Chengliang cannot surrender if he is not his.

In order to achieve this effect, he had to let the Donglu continue to harass the small-scale, giving the court a feeling of restlessness in the border.

Under such circumstances, the court will naturally not transfer Li Chengliang away.

Li Chengliang originally thought that everything was under control, and the Donglu was just a chess piece he used. But who knew that he underestimated the ambition of the Jurchens, which led to the Donglu becoming bigger. Liao Town suffered years of war and the situation was out of control.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a sinner for the ages.

This guy actually dared to let Gao Jie learn from Li Chengliang.

Gao Jie sneered: "Li Chengliang? He is worthy of competing with this general. He dragged it down and beheaded!"

"General Gao, the two countries will not be killed when they are in war!"

In desperation, the messenger used his trump card.

In his opinion, this statement was enough to block Gao Jie's mouth.

Unexpectedly, Gao Jie didn't care at all and smiled contemptuously: "The Eastern Barbarians are also worthy of being called a country? Are you worthy of being called a country? At the beginning of the Jurchen tribes who requested to be affiliated with the Liaodong Dusi, and I pilgrimage to the emperor to pity all living beings, so I made a report. Unexpectedly, they not only did not want to be grateful, but also wanted to repay the grudges. The seven major hatreds were just made up by Nurhaci to despise people. From the moment he launched a rebellion, he was a traitor. Jianzhou Jurchens are just a tribe, and they are not even a vassal state like North Korea. Why are you here to ask this general to fight and not kill the envoy? Isn't it stupid and ridiculous?"

After saying that, Gao Jie waved his hand and asked his personal soldiers to pull the envoy down and behead him.

The messenger was exhausted, his legs were weak and his face was pale.

Seeing this, Li Chengdong hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Master, this person cannot be killed!"

Gao Jie frowned when he heard this: "You want to plead for him?"

Li Chengdong explained: "Master, the general is not trying to plead for this guy. He is worried that the general will arouse suspicion from the court if he kills this guy."

Gao Jie laughed and said, "How could this be? If you kill this guy, you will only see the loyalty of your general, so how could you suspect me?"

Li Chengdong lowered his voice and said, "After all, the general of the Majesty is not his master's direct line. It is normal for your Majesty to be suspicious and guard against him. If this was done by the general of the Shence Army, your Majesty would never say anything, but if it was done by the Majesty, your Majesty would probably think that the Majesty was killing people to silence him and was guilty of being a thief."

Gao Jie's good mood disappeared.

From the moment of the Northern Expedition, Li Chengdong reminded him more than once that the court would be suspicious of him.

Although Gao Jie didn't believe it very much, he almost believed it after hearing too much.

I only hate him as a bandit. Even if he has been surrendering to the Ming Dynasty for nearly ten years, this old story will always be discussed.

"What should I do? I can't kill him. Should I let him go?"

"Of course not!" Li Chengdong said quickly: "It is definitely not allowed to let go. The general might as well tie this guy up and send someone to Nanjing to ask His Majesty for the Holy Decision."
