Chapter 376 Yang Sichang's Secret Letter

Let’s talk about Ma Xianglin frowned and thought for a moment, with a hint of undetectable sneer, and said, “Mr. Li, please make a clarification. Lin Chunhong has long stopped taking the imperial orders seriously. This time he led 30,000 troops out of Nanyang, but he also stationed the Luzhou line without authorization. The intention is really interesting. If the expected one is not bad, Lin Chunhong should send a protective grain road to expel Li Ding’s troops, and then lead the main force to Ruzhou to drive Zhang Xianzhong to the south of Ruzhou. In this way, Luonan, Lu’s counties will inevitably be harmed by the bandits. The last general is worried that the bandits will harm Luonan and Lu’s affairs are small. If the scene in Nanyang is repeated, the two places will not accept the ownership of the court!”

Huang Degong and Liu Zeqing were startled and couldn't help but change their faces. Ma Xianglin's words were tantamount to accuse Lin Chunhong of rebelling! Huang Degong couldn't help but curse in his heart: Ma Xianglin is really hated. Are you not afraid that Lin Chunhonghong will settle the score later?

Huang Degong looked at Li Shaoyi secretly, but saw that Li Shaoyi's face was not changing and his heart was not beating, and he had no reaction at all. Huang Degong was very strange, and I wonder if Li Shaoyi didn't understand Ma Xianglin's words or because of this matter being too sensitive, he had to choose to ignore it.

Let’s hear Li Shaoyi ask, “That’s it? Deputy General Ma finished speaking?”

Ma Xianglin was puzzled. According to the saying, he said so clearly that Li Shaoyi was not up to the truth? He had to reply: "I'm done with the last words."

Li Shaoyi said with a cold face: "What do you mean is that Lin Chunhong will divide his troops to go south, and the main force will attack Zhang Xianzhong, who is entrenched in Ruzhou?"

Ma Xianglin clasped his fists and said, "Yes. So I think so."

Li Shaoyi turned his gaze to Liu Zeqing and asked, "What do you think General Liu?"

Liu Zeqing didn't dare to say much at all, so he had to clasp his fists carefully and said, "The last general's view is similar to that of Deputy General Ma, and it is no different."

Li Shaoyi nodded and said loudly: "Thank you three for your hard work. I have to rely on three to wipe out Zhang Xianzhong. If I can successfully wipe out Zhang thief this time, I will definitely ask for merit for the three in front of the emperor. The three of them will be granted the wife and the sons will be in front of me! Okay, three of them are so brave, I won't talk too much. You can go!"

The three of them were extremely suspicious and could not guess what Li Shaoyi was crazy about, so they had to slouch and say goodbye.

Seeing the three of them leaving, Li Shaoyi immediately went to find Xiong Wencan, preparing to use Xiong Wencan's hand to order the Jingzhou army to divide the troops south. Unexpectedly, before he stepped out of the hall, he received a message from his confidant: Yang Ge Lao had a secret letter.

Li Shaoyi did not dare to delay and immediately returned to the secret room and opened Yang Sichang's secret letter.

Yang Sichang informed Li Shaoyi that the Ministry of War had secretly ordered Qin Liangyu to gather troops at Wanyuan to prevent Zhang Xianzhong and Lin Chunhong from entering Sichuan; at the same time, he also ordered Lu Xiangsheng to mobilize Hu Dawei to station troops north of the Yellow River to maintain pressure on Lin Chunhong.

In addition, Yang Sichang said that although Lin Chunhong stationed troops in Luzhou, he did not know the intention, but the governor of Anlu Shi Kefaye has taken important actions, so don't worry.

Yang Sichang also drew a bottom line and ordered Li Shaoyi to stop Lin Chunhong from being in Henan and Sichuan to continue to seize territory.

Finally, Yang Sichang was extremely worried and pointed out that the Jurchen chief was moving frequently recently, and he might be in a state of going south. If there is another disaster of invading the capital, he might not be able to settle his position. If possible, it is best to have a secret contact with Lin Chunhong to see if he can push the Jingzhou army north to fight against the Jurchens while protecting Henan and Sichuan...

Li Shaoyi held the secret letter tightly, and his hands kept trembling as if he was holding a thousand pounds of objects. Finally, he sighed and placed the secret letter on the candle. As a ball of yellow flames erupted, the secret letter turned into ashes and drifted in the secret room.

Although Yang Sichang drew his bow from left to right and looked for powerful support such as Qin Liangyu and Lu Xiangsheng for Li Shaoyi, Li Shaoyi did not feel relaxed at all. These days, he was surrounded by some uneasy lamps, which made him exhausted.

Like Huang Degong, Ma Xianglin and Liu Zeqing, the arrogant generals, who occasionally hit him, would obey orders. Xiong Wencan was so cunning that he always showed a bitter face that he was controlled by him, fearing that the world would not know. How could Li Shaoyi not know about Xiong Wencan's plan? He suspected that Xiong Wencan had already had a deal with Lin Chunhong, and had the idea of ​​never leaving the corner, sitting in the mountains to watch the court fight with Lin Chunhong to the death.

As for Qin Liangyu and Lu Xiangsheng, Li Shaoyi naturally trusted their loyalty. However, he suspected that even if Qin Liangyu and Lu Xiangsheng took action, how many days could they resist Lin Chunhong? Will Lin Chunhong rebound strongly under the suppression of the two, making the whole of Henan uncontrollable?

Moreover, Lu Xiangsheng and Yang Sichang were not the same as each other. Yang Sichang's "to resilient the country first when fighting foreign countries" was released, but Lu Xiangsheng was denounced. According to Lu Xiangsheng's stubborn scholars, no matter who wants to disturb the Ming Dynasty, he can fight back and never compromise.

This made Yang Sichang and Li Shaoyi very worried. In the court, there were many people who held the same view of Lu Xiangsheng, and their power would never be ignored. Li Shaoyi also knew that in order to implement the "to fight against foreign countries, one must first stabilize the internal situation", Yang Sichang also devoted himself to attracting high and rising potential, trying to combine the inside and outside to jointly promote this strategy.

Thinking of this, Li Shaoyi sighed and seemed worried. When he asked the Jurchens to negotiate peace, he would inevitably bear the infamy for generations. Now there is no one in the court to promote this matter. The person in the palace obviously did not want to bear the infamy and would never be involved in this matter.

The more Li Shaoyi thought about it, the more frightened he became. If Zhu Youjian really couldn't withstand the pressure, would he push Yang Sichang out to replace him?

Once Yang Sichang is finished and there is no end to the nest when he is destroyed, he will immediately follow him.

Li Shaoyi was creepy and sweated coldly all over his body.

As for Yang Sichang's proposal to urge the Jingzhou army to go north to fight against the Jurchens, Li Shaoyi could see at a glance that Yang Sichang was thinking of consuming the strength of the Jingzhou army and even wanted to take the Jingzhou army to the north as hostages and force Lin Chunhong to obey the orders of the court.

Li Shaoyi felt that this was like a joke. From Nanyang to Xuanda and Jiliao, thousands of miles apart, Lin Chunhong was so stupid that he sent Jingzhou troops to Xuanda and Jiliao? Could it be that Yang Sichang was stunned in the cabinet?

Li Shaoyi knew Yang Sichang very well and knew that Yang Sichang was not a fantastic scholar. Could it be that Yang Sichang had other considerations?

He suddenly thought that Lin Chunhong built a six-masted sailboat and a seven-masted sailboat in Guangdong, and also controlled the Yangtze River through a centipede ship. Could it be that Yang Sichang hoped that Lin Chunhong would transport the Jingzhou army to the three sides to fight against the Jurchens?

Thinking of this, he suddenly realized and understood Yang Sichang's plan. He couldn't help but admire Yang Sichang and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up: Gao, it's really Gao!
Chapter completed!
