293 Please take the initiative to fight
This is the role of the military supervisor. It’s time to focus on making money. Eunuchs who only please people and serve others as military supervisors are really a joke. It would be better to send a few more Jinyiwei to secretly collect information.
Of course, the Ming Dynasty also produced very powerful eunuchs, and Zheng He was one of the best. Unfortunately, there was only one Zheng He in the entire Ming Dynasty.
"Sir, I heard that the caravan of the Yuci Zhai family was attacked. The Jiexiu Fan family and the Yuci Zhai family blamed each other, as if there was a conflict. The Tian family's business was also troubled. The business community in Shanxi has been unsatisfied recently." Zhao Gongchang suddenly said to Lu Haoshan with some gloating.
Finally, I heard good news. Sometimes it was a pleasure to hear people I didn’t like. Lu Haoshan’s eyes lit up and he asked with interest: “Where did you get the news?”
"It was found out by our people who left behind, but these news has also spread among local businessmen, and it is not a secret." Zhao Gongchang replied with a smile.
Zhao Gongchang is indeed worthy of happiness. This plan was decided by Lu Haoshan, but it was done by himself. Judging from the current noise, the effect is very good.
Lu Haoshan asked in a low voice: "The dog bites so quickly, and where are you hiding it from me?" Zhao Gongchang attached his mouth to Lu Haoshan's ear and lowered his voice: "I buried Mei Degui's body in the Tian family's industry. Fan Yongdou suspected that it was Zhai and the Tian family conspired to deal with him, so he started fighting."
The damage is really a loss. The key figure died and the unlicensed account was found. This became a confusing account. Lu Haoshan laughed when he heard this, patted his shoulder, and then extended it.
It was impossible to deal with these corruptions and scum of the Ming Dynasty for a while. Besides, Lu Haoshan's power is still too small now. If they don't kill a snake and let them bite it, it would be more than worth it. Lu Haoshan decided to let them go first. Just pretend that they were pigs and fatten them first, and then slaughter them with one knife.
After the eunuch in charge of the army left, Lu Haoshan's mission still did not change, and he continued to cooperate with the Yuzao Hundred Houses to guard Yuzao Pass.
Lu Haoshan was speechless. Having strength and determination did not mean he could be willful. He could not move at will without receiving the order. He held the new commander Han Wendeng in Sichuan, and was barely a figure, but as soon as he left Sichuan, he became a small character. Take this time at Yuzao Pass, which was Cao Wenzhao ordered Deng Yan to be assigned to him, and Deng Yan would assign him according to the actual situation. The order could not reach him at all. The difference between garrisoning and waiting for opportunities was too far away. Lu Haoshan missed his time in Pingyang Mansion. At that time, Dong Jian was "repaying" in Fenzhou City. Lu Haoshan could be said to be in a state of "no king's control" and could be said to be free and easy. However, Deng Yan was controlled everywhere as soon as he arrived.
Deng Yan was polite to himself on the surface, but actually he was a little jealous in his heart. He gave Lu Haoshan a lot of martial arts but no place to use his skills. In the past, he had no choice but to encircle and suppress the mud in Sichuan, and there was no such restriction.
Lu Haoshan returned to Shuaiying and was thinking about how to change this situation. He was willing to give gifts but was afraid of doing bad things with good intentions, which made people feel that he had bad intentions. If he kept waiting here, he was afraid of missing the opportunity and was in a dilemma for a while.
"News! There are new briefings and intelligence."
Just when Lu Haoshan was in a dilemma, a messenger suddenly came in to report.
"Take it"
After the messenger submitted the briefing and intelligence, he quietly retreated. Lu Haoshan opened the information first and saw that it was information about Lao Huihui. The information said that Lao Huihui appeared in the Baixiang Mountain area of Zhending Prefecture. Recently, he used it with King Jinliang, Zhang Xianzhong, the eight kings of Xiying, and others, and they had to fight. A few days ago, they had conspired to attack Zhending Prefecture, but they were hit hard by the strong and powerful counterattack of the defenders, and suffered heavy losses. Now Baixiang Mountain is resting.
Not far away, Lu Haoshan probably only took two or three days to ride a horse from Yuzaokou to Baixiang Mountain. Unexpectedly, this guy has such a big appetite. Now the court has sent heavy troops to garrison these places and dares to attack the city.
Can this be considered fate?
Now all the Wenchong Qianhu Institute thinks that Lao Hui is in his eyes and thorns in his flesh. From time to time, soldiers ask Lu Haoshan for battle. Now Lao Huihui is suffering setbacks again, and the two are so close. If they don’t take action, Lu Haoshan will feel sorry for his dead brother.
Putting down the information in his hand, Lu Haoshan picked up the briefing that was only circulating within the army. It turned out that some of the mobs had severely defeated, what kind of murders the mobs committed, and which target person was punished, etc., etc., and they didn't expect to see a heavy pound news: the Beijing camp soldiers were dispatched.
It turned out that after the court mobilized heavy troops, various rebels moved to the Taihang Mountains. Zhu Changfang, the king of Ming Lu, who was enfeoffed in Weihui Prefecture, Ji County, Henan Province, saw that the rebels were getting stronger and stronger, and his fiefdom was in danger, so he wrote a letter to Chongzhen to inquire, asking the court not to underestimate these mobs and to wipe them out as soon as possible, so as not to let them become bigger and threaten the Ming Dynasty. He also said that he was willing to donate money and food to help the court suppress the bandits.
The King of Lu was still a bit worthwhile. In addition, he was willing to donate money and food to suppress the bandits. Chongzhen, who was eager to exterminate the peasant uprising, agreed to the request of Prince Zhu, and specially ordered Ni Chong and Wang Pu to serve as general, eunuch Yang Jinchao, and Lu Jiude to serve as the military supervisor to command 6,000 elite Beijing soldiers to Henan to suppress the bandits, begging to wipe out the rebel army in one fell swoop, once and for all.
Huh, the Beijing soldiers were also alarmed. It seemed that Chongzhen had made up his mind to quell the rebellion.
However, in this way, his status in the bandit suppression army would be even lower. Not only did his status decline, but the status of Hong Chengchou, Cao Wenzhao and others also declined. These Beijing officials all had nostrils and were arrogant and came from the imperial city, as if they were older than the emperor.
It's now lively. Shaanxi soldiers, Shanxi soldiers, Henan soldiers, such as Tongzhou soldiers, Changping soldiers, Baoding soldiers, famous soldiers, and Beijing soldiers, which is a challenge for Hong Chengchou, while for Zijinliang, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others, the pressure is even more increasing.
These soldiers did not come to congratulate, but to seek their lives.
Lu Haoshan thought for a while and suddenly asked, "Where is Cao Wenzhao now?"
"General Cao should be in Dingxiang City now." Lu Haoshan suddenly spoke, stunned Zhao Gongchang for a moment, but he quickly reacted and responded.
Fortunately, not far away, they were all in Taiyuan Prefecture. Lu Haoshanteng stood up and said, "Good work, prepare horses, let's go to Dingxiang immediately."
"Sir, go to Dingxiang?" Zhao Gongchang was stunned for a moment, but quickly persuaded: "It's not good. Our task is to assist in the defense here and not leave the post casually. If someone knows, it will be punished."
Although the army is corrupt and many systems are in name only, military discipline is military discipline and cannot be destroyed at will. The four words "military orders are like mountains" are not a joke.
Lu Haoshan hesitated for a moment, quickly shook his head and said, "The opportunity is something to be fought for. I sit here and wait. I don't know when I wait. I told the public that I was infected with the cold and could not meet anyone. I would take it for a few days to find someone and I would go back."
"But sir, aren't you afraid that General Cao will make things difficult for you?" Zhao Gongchang said with some concern.
Cao Wenzhao was from the Shaanxi Dusi, but he was not as easy to talk to as Han Wendeng.
Lu Haoshan shook the briefing in his hand and said confidently: "With this, I am confident that Cao Wenzhao will not make any difficulties."
"Sir, I don't know what happened?"
"Please fight!" Lu Haoshan said seriously with a look of his face
In Dingxiang City, Cao Wenzhao sat in the study of a wealthy family who was temporarily requisitioned, frowned and looked at the imperial edict in his hand. The content of the imperial edict was very simple, and he sent 6,000 troops from Ni Chong and Wang Putong to Henan to suppress the bandits and ordered Cao Wenzhao to cooperate.
It is said that it is cooperation, but in fact, it is mainly based on the Beijing camp soldiers and Cao Wenzhao, and he is inferior to others in terms of seniority.
After looking at the imperial edict again, the wrinkles on Cao Wenzhao's forehead became even deeper.
Before entering Shanxi to suppress bandits, the court had great hopes for Cao Wenzhao. The infantry and cavalry needed were selected one by one, and before he made meritorious, he would first become one level. At that time, Cao Wenzhao was so energetic that he could wipe out those mud feet as soon as he entered Shanxi. When he was promoted and promoted, he would be so glorious. Unfortunately, things were contrary to the situation. It was not that the officers and soldiers did not fight hard, but that the mud legs were too cunning and kept wandering everywhere. Due to regional restrictions, they had to spend a lot of effort in regulation. Not only did the bandits not eliminated, but their momentum became stronger and stronger. They all fought to Zhending and Shunde Prefecture near the capital.
This is a slap in the face.
Fortunately, the court also knew the truth and knew that many things were not something that he could control. There were supervision and encouragement in the imperial edict. Fortunately, he did not pursue his fault. The court sent eunuchs to see the army and the emperor to see that the court and the emperor were very dissatisfied with the progress of the bandit suppression. Now he sent out the Beijing camp soldiers, which obviously no longer expressed hope for him.
The moment he received this imperial edict, Cao Wenzhao felt a sense of loss and frustration, or it was not an exaggeration to lose favor. Cao Wenzhao knew that he had lost a very rare opportunity.
He gently put the imperial edict on the table, and Cao Wenzhao smiled bitterly: It's really realistic. When he saw that he had no results, he immediately kicked himself aside. It's a pity that he was working hard every day to suppress the bandits, and spent most of his time on horseback. It can be said that he worked hard and sold his life for the old Zhu family. Look at the date of issuance of the imperial edict, he was a few days later.
Who told me that I had to go to various troops to inspect and coordinate? The eunuch who announced the imperial edict complained that he could not find him and caused him to suffer? Cao Wenzhao really wanted to say whether it would be fun to let him run outside?
Alas, Cao Wenzhao sighed deeply. Originally, the bandit suppression was the dominant one. First, the old boss Hong Chengchou served as the governor of the three provinces, and then sent eunuchs to supervise the army. Now he sent troops to conquer the Beijing camp, and his position became even more embarrassing.
Just when Cao Wenzhao was worried, a confidant suddenly walked up to him and whispered: "General, Lu Qianhu from Wenchong Qianhu, Sichuan, is asking for a visit outside the door."
