Almost no one in the court spoke. Yang Sichang and others were too happy, let alone oppose it. Even when Lu Xiangsheng was fighting with Boluo, he took time out and submitted a memorial to talk about Lin Chunhong's military achievements, which was enough to be awarded the title.

There were only a few people from Huang Daozhou who continued to capture Lin Chunhong's arrogant and domineering intentions and firmly opposed the title of Lin Chunhong.

However, the nobles could not sit still when it comes to interests.

Duke of Wei, Duke of Ding, Duke of Cheng, Duke of England, and Duke of England, who had a different surname, jumped out first and opposed Lin Chunhong's title of title, and then became a marquis of different surnames, and then spread to the count... Every day, there was a clamor for Lin Chunhong's title of title, and the country was not in power.

The reaction of the kings of the same surname was slower, the main reason was that they lived outside the capital and the news was relatively low. Part of the reason was that most of these vassal kings were those who were scattered and waited for death, and they did not realize the severe reality brought about by Lin Chunhong's title in a short period of time.

When they realized this problem, the voices against Lin Chunhong's title became stronger and stronger. They seized the purpose of the imperial court's establishment of titles and claimed that the title of Lin Chunhong would disappoint the soldiers who were loyal to the country. In the long run, no one would be loyal to the court, and even lead to the serious consequences of the destruction of the country and the destruction of the ancestral temple.

At the same time, Yang Yiren, Bao Zhedong and others severely refuted the voice, claiming that if Lin Chunhong, who had made great achievements, would not be awarded the rewards of the meritorious people, which would have ruined the hearts of the soldiers and eventually led to no one fighting with all their heart and strength, and the country would have the power to destroy.

In short, the court seemed to have forgotten the Tartars who were close to each other, and they would not give up if they did not discuss the title of Lin Chunhong clearly. Even Lin Chunhong, who had been swearing to fight to the death with the Tartars, gathered Shengkun Mountain and Wu Tianzhu's cavalry in Pizhou, and then arrived in Liaocheng, and suddenly the troops stopped moving forward. It seemed that if they did not win titles, they would not go north.

Seeing that Lin Chunhong openly threatened the Ming court and sowed the relationship between the two, Dorgon summoned the Boluo tribe, joined Yuetuo, and then divided into eight routes to go south, along the Taihang Mountains, along the canals, and the six routes in the middle invaded from north to south, wantonly expanding the scope of plunder.

Now, the people in the northern Zhili area were fled south, dragging their children and daughters all the way, enduring hunger and earning their lives in the cold, which was extremely miserable. They were lucky enough to escape smoothly, and some refugees who went south were caught by the Tartars, and their food for life-saving food was plundered, the livestock pulled by the Tartars were driven away, and their wives and daughters were abused, which was a terrible sight.

At the same time, Xuanfu, Datong, Shanxi general Yang Guozhu, Wang Pu, and Hu Dawei finally arrived around the capital. Lu Xiangsheng's troops reached more than 20,000, and finally had the capital to fight hard.

Considering that the army gathered, the military orders of each unit were different and the methods of combat were different, Lu Xiangsheng simply divided the army and took charge of each unit to avoid chaos in the orders.

On the night of November 25, when he reached out to see his five fingers, Lu Xiangsheng ordered a night attack, giving Yang Guozhu, Wang Pu and Hu Dawei a murderous order: "In this battle, the sword will be bloody, the person will be injured, the horse will be gasping for sweat, and those who violate it will be killed!"

This order rushes into the sky, cutting off the retreat of the three generals who were originally intended to avoid war, making the three people extremely resentful. But in the end, they were afraid of the Shangfang sword at Lu Xiangsheng's hand, so they had to lead their troops to attack at night.

The night attack began on the first day of the first day of the first day of the night, the second commander Haoge was discovered. The two sides were in a close handicap in Daxing. For a moment, the killing sounds shook the sky, blood flowed into a river, and the battle was extremely fierce.

However, because Wang Pu was timid and relied on Cao Huachun's support, he was not afraid of Lu Xiang's military order and retreated first. There was a gap in the Ming army's front, the entire army collapsed and suffered heavy losses.

Lu Xiangsheng retreated to Fangshan, and was about to behead Wang Pu to the military law. Unexpectedly, the Ministry of War ordered him to be transferred to Tongzhou to guard.

As a last resort, Lu Xiangsheng had to order a rest and lick his wounds to wait for another fight.

Lu Xiangsheng rested for several days, worried about the situation of the war every day, but had no choice but to have no choice. He was already determined to lead his troops to Qingdu (now Baoding) to fight to the death with the Qing army, he suddenly received a report that Lu Shiming, the general manager of the Jingzhou Army General Office, came to visit.

Lu Xiangsheng was annoyed Yang Guozhu, and Wang Pu and Hu were not fighting hard. After hearing that Lu Shiming came to visit, he remembered that Lin Chunhong was out of control for his own selfish interests. He felt a knot in his heart and made his attitude clear: No see.

After rejecting Lu Shiming, Lu Xiangsheng suddenly felt that he had lost a chance to persuade Lin Chunhong to go north. He was upset and suddenly reported to his personal guard that Lu Shiming did not leave, but claimed that he had come to discuss the war. If Governor Lu refused to see him, he might have missed the big thing.

Lu Xiangsheng became active and ordered Lu Shiming to be brought in.

After some greetings, Lu Xiangsheng said coldly: "Since ancient times, I have never heard of thousands of miles away from the enemy and are still on the verge of patrols, but I plan to defend the war. If you want to discuss the war with me, please ask Lin Chunhong to launch troops first."

When Lu Xiangsheng met at the first day of the lunar calendar, he directly criticized Lin Chunhong, which made Lu Shiming feel embarrassed and said embarrassedly: "The soldiers and armor are not ready, and the food is not enough, so you need to wait for a while."

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he raised his sleeves and said furiously: "It seems that the governor is not that the army is not prepared, the food and grass is not sufficient, but that the title is not granted? At this point, since you have no sincerity to discuss the war, please leave here quickly!"

After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.

Lu Shiming suddenly became solemn and shouted: "I would like to cherish my life for the country. Never act irresponsibly and ignore my family and life!"

When Lu Shiming suddenly heard what Lu Shiming said, Lu Xiangsheng was shocked. When he went to Qingdu to fight, he was indeed ready to wrap his body in the horse. Unexpectedly, Lu Shiming would advise him to cherish his life for the country.

He couldn't help but stop and found that it seemed that he had heard of this, which seemed familiar. Finally, he remembered that in the eighth year of Chongzhen, he met Lin Chunhong in Jingzhou. When he was about to part, Lin Chunhong said this to him. He was also curious at the beginning, and I don't know why Lin Chunhong emphasized this, so he was so impressed.

Lu Xiangsheng felt that the current dilemma was beyond help, and he was already ready to serve the country with death. Lin Chunhong said two years ago that he had expected his current dilemma and proposed in a targeted manner that he would cherish his life for the country.

Lu Xiangsheng Daqi turned around and said coldly: "It was Lin Chunhong who asked you to say this? It's ridiculous! He actually has the face to let you say what he said back then! He cherishes his body, cherishes his body, but he values ​​his life very much!"

Lu Shiming did not interfere with Lu Xiangsheng's sarcasm, but continued to repeat Lin Chunhong's original words: "As the saying goes, we must first settle the country when fighting foreign countries. After the bandits are resolved, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Jingzhou army will remain with the Jurchens until they die!"

Lu Xiangsheng sneered: "He remembers what he said at the beginning. Could it be that he was hiding thousands of miles away with the Tartars forever?"

Lu Shiming said: "Governor Lin once said that if he did not take this opportunity to cut a scar on the Ming Dynasty's cancer in one fell swoop and let the pus flow out, the Ming Dynasty's knot would not be untied at all."

Lu Xiangsheng was silent. According to Lu Xiangsheng's understanding of Lin Chunhong, he felt that Lin Chunhong had nearly ten million people and had more than 100,000 elite troops in his hand, so he would not take the title seriously. The reason why Lin Chunhong was suddenly in a hurry was probably to make a hole in the cancer.

In terms of reason, Lu Xiangsheng did think so. But emotionally, he could never accept the pain of the people in the north moaning on the iron hooves of the Tartars, but Lin Chunhong held heavy troops and did not want to kill the enemy.

So, Lu Xiangsheng said two words word by word: "Quote!"

Lu Shiming bowed and said, "For what reason, Governor Lin stopped his troops, let's not talk about it. It's just that Governor General is in the evening. Please station troops for a few days before you ask for troops to advance! Governor General is the pillar of the country. When thousands of horses are silenced, only Governor General General is willing to stand up and fight several battles with the Tartars. If the Ming Dynasty did not have Governor General, the losses would be much greater than killing several Tartars."

Seeing Lu Shiming repeatedly advised him to cherish his body, Lu Xiangsheng finally looked a little better, slowed down his tone and said, "It's not my governor who cares about his life, but the Tartars bullied me, the Ming Dynasty, and they destroyed the border walls and entered the pass. Fighting against the Tartars and protecting the people, I am neither the first nor the last. I want to fight the Tartars to the death, but it is forced by the situation, so I have to do it!"

Lu Shiming sighed in his heart and thought to himself: The governor is right. Just treating him as a country and cherishing himself will not stop Lu Xiangsheng from going to die.

In desperation, Lu Shiming said: "The Tartars were brave and had more than 50,000 elite cavalry entering the pass, and relying solely on the Jingzhou Army's more than 50,000 infantry and a small number of cavalry, there was no chance of victory. Governor Lin was worried every day, and he was afraid that he would not be a match for the Tartars. He thought about it and felt that only by cooperating with the Governor, the Jingzhou Army welcomed the Tartars soldiers, the Governor led the troops to take them and attacked them from the front and back, he would have a chance of victory. I wonder if the Governor was interested?"

Lu Xiangsheng was moved. Lin Chunhong proposed that if he could take action, it was indeed the best strategy to give the Tartars the greatest possible killing. Thinking that the Jingzhou army still had more than 10,000 troops in Liaodong, Lu Xiangsheng suddenly turned red: If the Jingzhou army on the Liaodong Peninsula attacked again and restrained the Tartars in Shenyang, Rong Daming's border army calmly dispatched troops, it is very likely that more than 50,000 Tartars would be blocked in the Central Plains and would never be able to return to Liaodong.

However, Lu Xiangsheng had been in military service for many years, how could he not know that this was just an ideal situation? First of all, the Ming border army calmly dispatched troops, which was difficult to achieve. The Ming border army was not subordinate to each other and suddenly asked them to work together to fight the enemy together, which was almost impossible. Moreover, the troops he could use were less than 6,000 or more. The plan was enough, and Yang Guozhu and Hu Dawei could be transferred by the Ministry of War at any time. How could such a thin force be held to attack front and back? That was just a joke!

More importantly, he led his troops behind the Tartars and never fought. Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian would have any trouble, and who would have expected it?

Lu Xiangsheng suddenly woke up and said to Lu Shiming: "Lin Chunhong was afraid that I would go to Zhuozhou to die, so he asked you to tell me a plan to attack the front and back? This plan was not feasible at all!"

Lu Shiming wanted to advise Lu Xiangsheng again, but was stopped by Lu Xiangsheng. Lu Xiangsheng said decisively: "No need to say anything more! The governor's intention has been decided, but I hope that after the Battle of Qingdu, Lin Chunhong will see the difficulties of the court and the pain of the people, and have fewer selfish thoughts in his heart, more loyalty and righteousness, and more ways to make more life for the people!"
