309 Chapter 30(2/2)
Join forces with you."
Zhang Zhou obviously would not let Wang Shouren lead 5,000 cavalry to fight the Tatars rashly.
Zhang Zhou had to provide the necessary logistical support, which was obviously more convenient than sending troops from Xuanfu. After all, it was not even three hundred miles from Datong to Weininghai.
"Bo'an, if you encounter Tatar tribesmen, you can assess the situation and decide whether to continue using troops or retreat. After I lead the troops to Mao'erzhuang, I will also assess the situation and continue to meet you northward, or whether to stay and wait for you to go south."
"Um."
Wang Shouren felt more confident this time.
Once the most powerful armed force around Weininghai, the Mengguoljin tribe of Huoshii has now surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and Huoshii is on the way to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
As for the tribes such as Yibula, it seems that there is nothing to worry about.
Although Dayan Khan is strong, Weininghai itself is not the territory of the Chahar tribe. This battle looks like he is on vacation. Moreover, he has soldiers and horses, abundant firearms, stable and strong backup, and can attack.
Retreat and defend.
"What about me?" Zhang Heling asked from the side.
Zhang Zhou smiled and said: "You two will follow me in the middle army and go to Mao'erzhuang together."
"Okay, okay." When Zhang Heling heard that he was following the soy sauce again, that he was not in danger and had military achievements, he immediately smiled.
…
…
Because Weininghai 3.0 was not a secret operation, after Zhang Zhou explained the situation to Wang Shouren, he immediately made the news public.
This is also to dispel the doubts of Mongol Jinbu.
Of course, Zhang Zhou also wanted to guard against the Mengoljin tribe stabbing him in the back, so he issued a transfer order to move the Mengoljin tribe to the southwest of the Hetao.
The soldiers and civilians in Datong Town were very excited when they heard the news. The soldiers seemed to have not enjoyed this kind of treatment as citizens of the "Celestial Kingdom" for a long time. They knew that patrolling the Weining Sea seemed to be full of dangers, but everyone wanted to
To make achievements...
It's finally our turn!
Zhang Zhou transferred 5,000 patrol cavalry, including 500 soldiers and horses from Shenji Camp of Beijing Camp and 500 soldiers and horses from Xuanfu, 2,000 soldiers and horses from Piantou Pass and Zhu Fenglai, and 2,000 local cavalry from Datong.
It was fully considered that this was a coordinated operation in Xuanda, and both rain and dew would be affected.
When Zhu Feng arrived at Datong Town with two thousand cavalry, he was also welcomed by the soldiers and civilians in Datong City.
Zhang Zhou did not go out of the city to greet him in person, but waited for Zhu Feng's arrival in the governor's office.
"Brother Zhang."
Zhu Feng followed Wang Shouren and others to the governor's office, and the name he used when meeting Zhang Zhou was unique.
Zhang Zhou walked out from behind the desk, came to Zhu Feng, looked him up and down and said with emotion: "Zhijie, why do you think you have gained weight after going to Pianguan for a while?"
"ah?"
Zhu Feng looked down at himself.
He was also thinking, although I haven't weighed myself recently, I shouldn't be fat, right?
"You need to exercise more." Zhang Zhou said, "This time you go to Weininghai with Instructor Wang from our Yanwu Hall. It won't be too difficult for you, right?"
"Won't."
Zhu Feng's expression was still somewhat evasive.
Although he was the first person to know that he was going to Weininghai with Wang Shouren, he was also the one with the greatest fluctuations in psychological activity and the one with the greatest resistance.
"Then don't disappoint Your Majesty and me."
…
…
Zhang Zhou's report that he was going to send troops to Weininghai again reached Zhu Youtang.
Zhang Zhou only sent the memorial before returning to Datong. As Zhang Zhou, as the general commander of Xuanda, wanted to send troops to Weininghai to patrol, there was no need to ask the emperor for instructions. He just routinely informed Zhu You of this plan.
Zang, so that people won’t say that he has to hide everything he does.
"very good."
After Zhu Youtang read Zhang Zhou's performance, he felt very relaxed.
Dai Yi smiled and said: "Mr. Zhang is really serious about saying that he wants to offer gifts for the Longevity Festival."
Zhu Youtang asked: "About Bai Yuge Department? Does the Ministry of War know about it?"
"Not yet, we have to wait for His Majesty's instructions."
Although Zhang Zhou wanted to send troops to Weininghai with great fanfare, not to mention the Ming army and people, even the Tatars did not hide it, but Dai Yi did not dare to make a decision on whether to let the ministers of the DPRK know about it.
Zhu Youtang said: "There is nothing to hide, just tell me."
"yes."
Dai Yi took the memorial back.
Zhu Youtang suddenly thought of something and asked Xiao Jing on the side: "The people sent to Queli have not been delayed, right?"
Xiao Jing said: "Hurry up and set off. Change horses without changing people. We will arrive within three days."
"Yes." Zhu Youtang nodded again, "As for the people from the Kong family who have entered the court, what movements have they made in the capital in recent days?"
While Zhu Youtang was arranging to investigate the possible arson of Xuansheng Temple in Qufu, he was also concerned about Kong Hongtai... In fact, Zhu Youtang was a little unsure, fearing that Li Dongyang would really care and leak the matter.
"Back to Your Majesty, Duke Yan Sheng has visited many ministers in the court in recent days. He also paid a private visit to the Tu Butang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. It is said that he mentioned the marriage between the Kong family and the Li family. He probably wanted to let Tu The ministry will explain it." Xiao Jing carefully explained.
Although during the Hongzhi period, Dongchang seemed very low-key.
However, regarding the daily communication and rhetoric of spying officials, he has not slacked off. Xiao Jing can be considered a capable person, and there are also a number of good players in Dongchang and Jinyiwei.
In the past, it was only because of the strong civil servants that Dongchang was in decline.
"That's right. Tu Yun was the one who took the lead in setting up the matchmaking. There is nothing wrong with the Kong family looking for Tu Yun."
Zhu Youtang said, "In the past few days, we must keep a close eye on the Kong family's people in Beijing. If they make any attempt to tip off information, we must promptly stop them."
Xiao Jing hurriedly responded: "I know this."
…
…
Cabinet value.
Xiao Jing personally informed Zhang Zhou of the news of sending troops to Weininghai again.
After Xiao Jing left, Liu Jian looked a little dull. He probably felt that no matter what happened in the northwest, it was Zhang Zhou's business. The imperial court wanted to interfere unless it made Zhang Zhou suffer... plus patrolling Weininghai would help improve the situation. The national prestige of the Ming Dynasty was such that even the picky Liu Jian could not find fault with it.
Xie Qian smiled and said: "He has all the military achievements, so why bother himself? Do you think the Tatars are unprepared every time? What's more, this time they are still using their troops with such great fanfare! He is still too showy! "
In Xie Qian's view.
After Zhang Zhou went to the northwest, it was enough to establish his prestige in the northwest with a surprise attack on Weininghai. The fire sieves all surrendered and submitted. You, Zhang Zhou, could quietly develop over there, or even make a fortune quietly.
But if you don’t know how to keep a low profile, why would you send troops to Weininghai for the second time? Isn’t this causing trouble for yourself?
Liu Jian glanced sideways at Li Dongyang. He originally wanted to ask Li Dongyang for his opinion on this, but when he saw that Li Dongyang was lowering his head to write the bill, as if he had turned a deaf ear to Zhang Zhou's sending troops to Weininghai again, he couldn't help asking: "Bin, this is I've been looking at you for a few days, but what's bothering you at home?"
Liu Jian didn't know the whole story and thought Li Dongyang was worried about marrying his daughter.
Li Dongyang put down his pen, looked up at the two of them, and said seriously: "Two days ago, His Majesty summoned me and told me Zhang Bingkuan's prophecy, and told me not to publicize it before it happened. I want Mr. Liu Ge and Yu Qiao, you can understand me, right?"
"Haha." Xie Qian said with a smile, "Binzhi, you are not right. His Majesty does not allow you to show off, but you told us that this happened. Do you want us to guess?"
Liu Jian frowned and asked, "About this troop dispatch?"
Based on his understanding of Li Dongyang, since the emperor won't let him know, you can just keep it a secret. Why did you tell us in advance that there is such a secret and still not tell us?
This is not your style, Li Dongyang.
Of course, Li Dongyang had troubles that he couldn't tell, and he wanted to "pass the blame" for what might happen in a few days, so he took advantage of Liu Jian's questioning and told him something, but he didn't clearly say what it was.
I just want to use Liu Jian and Xie Qian's mouth to tell outsiders that it's not that I don't want to inform the Kong family, but that the emperor doesn't let me tell them.
"It's not about sending troops. Please don't make any assumptions. I won't say it clearly even if it's true. But please bear witness. I didn't mean to cover it up."
