"Let you go back to the capital, first, Duoduo has been killed by me, the Qing army will go south in a short time, once the war breaks out, Jingwei needs the right person to lead, there are not many people in the Yixing court who are good at fighting, and only you can reassure me." And also...... After all, your family members are all in the capital, if you stay by my side, I'm afraid ...... There will be unforeseen circumstances. ”

Liao Zhongping's tears came down at once, he was actually mentally prepared, and the moment he knelt down to Wu Zheng, he treated his family as if all his family were dead.

Now, Wu Zheng mentions the safety of his family, which makes Liao Zhongping's heart feel warm, and he is really grateful.

But soon he immediately reacted, "The lord said that he had already killed Duoduo?" ”

Wu Zheng told Liao Zhongping about the general situation.

Liao Zhongping gritted his teeth and said, "Good kill!" This move will make countless families of the people who died at the hands of Duoduo thank the lord for his kindness, and can inspire the morale of our soldiers and soldiers. ”

Wu Zheng said: "So, you have to go back!" ”

Liao Zhongping bowed down and said, "Subordinates obey orders!" It's just that how can subordinates win the trust of His Majesty? If His Majesty does not trust, I am afraid that he will not be able to obtain the military power of Jingwei. ”

Wu Zheng was silent for a while, then raised his head and said, "Then General Liao will suffer." ”

"Although the lord said, his subordinates are all obedient!"

"General Liao, please cut off his fingers."

Liao Zhongping was stunned at first, then came to his senses, gritted his teeth and said, "Please borrow a knife from the lord!" ”

Wu Zheng turned his head and shouted to the door: "Song An, get a knife and wound medicine." ”

The sword light flashed, and Liao Zhongping's suppressed roar sounded, ten fingers connected to the heart, this kind of pain is beyond words.

After Song An gave Liao Zhongping medicine and bandaged.

Wu Zheng said to Song An: "Go to Duke Zhang's mansion and ask him to do the preparation on his behalf." ”

"Yes."

Liao Zhongping did not obey the decree and conspired to harm his father-in-law, which almost caused the Shaoxing war situation to be corrupted...... Condemnation should be given. It can be remembered that he is an envoy, and this prince has no intention of trespassing, so he only cut off one of his fingers to show a light punishment...... On the same day, they were escorted to the capital, hoping that His Majesty would be the master of the ministers and impose severe punishments, so as to comfort the casualties in this battle in the heavenly spirit ....... ”

After finishing speaking, Wu Zheng pointed to the severed finger and said to Song An: "Send the severed finger to the capital overnight with the song." ”

"Whoa."

Wu Zheng turned his head and looked at Liao Zhongping, who was in a cold sweat like soybeans on his forehead, and said: "This finger of yours is not what I want, but what he wants, the more ruthless I am to you, the more he believes in you, and the safer your family will be." ”

Liao Zhongping naturally understood that from hearing Wu Zheng's dictation, he understood Wu Zheng's intentions.

He grinned and nodded, "The lord's intentions, Liao understands." ”

Wu Zheng poured a bowl of wine and handed it to Liao Zhongping and said: "You are two days late, that is, the day after tomorrow, you will leave for the north, and you will have to suffer some torture in these two days." And I'm not going to come to see you again. ”

"I understand."

"The Qing army will only be ten days at most, and it will definitely launch an attack on the line from Tianfu to Zhenjiang, and the north will depend on you!" Wu Zheng picked up the bowl and said, "This bowl of wine, I respect you!" ”

Liao Zhongping took it with both hands, drank it all, and exclaimed in pain: "Happy!" ”

"Remember! What I want you to do is not a meticulous work or an undercover agent, and I don't need you for this. Your only task is to stop the Qing army from crossing the river...... If there is an emergency, you can go to the Taifu. ”

Liao Zhongping was a little stunned, but then he understood, so he nodded.

Wu Zheng said: "Taifu is bright, you are dark." It's not a last resort, don't go to Taifu. ”

Liao Zhongping responded: "My subordinates understand. ”

"I will keep an eye on the battle situation, and the two guards of Hangzhou and Jinshan will assemble in Jiaxing Mansion after that. When you really can't hold it anymore or the emperor sends someone to ask for help, the two guards will quickly go north...... Be bold and fight, you have me behind you! ”

"Thank you, Lord."

"No thanks. You and I are doing what we have to do...... Come, drink another bowl of wine, and look forward to the day when Jiangbei will meet, and you and I will conspire to get drunk again. ”

"Whoa."

……。

On the way back to the General's Mansion.

Song An asked, "Young Master, do you really believe in Liao Zhongping?" ”

Wu Zheng smiled and said, "Why don't you believe it?" ”

"Liao Zhongping changed too quickly...... This makes me a little confused. ”

"Don't be confused." Wu Zheng said flatly, "I never force people to be loyal to me, I only need them to be loyal to myself, my ancestors, and the blood flowing in my body." Liao Zhongping is a stubborn person, and his changes are similar to those of Taifu. So, you don't have to be skeptical. ”

"Yes. But I think that now in addition to the 6,000 forbidden troops and Liao Zhongping's more than 10,000 Beijing guards, the rest of the capital is only 30,000 recruits, and half of the Xingguo Gongshui Division is gone, and it is impossible to stop the Qing army from crossing the river. ”

Wu Zheng said: "In terms of troops, it should be barely enough. It doesn't hurt to recruit recruits, they have been training for several months, besides, after all, this battle is a defense of the Yixing Dynasty, and the disadvantages of recruits will not be too obvious. It's just that there are really not many people in the court who can fight, and I guess the emperor will use Xia Wanchun. ”

Song An said: "This ...... Unlikely, right? The emperor obviously knew that Xia Wanchun led the army to arrive at the Great Victory Pass before, not for King Qin, but to support the young master, but the situation in the capital was calmed down before he could take action. How could the emperor use Xia Wanchun now? ”

Song An is right, this activation is a real military power, or the military power of Jingwei.

How could the emperor put a bomb next to his couch except as a last resort?

Wu Zheng smiled and said, "If you wait until the emperor asks me for help, in the emperor's heart, is Xia Wanchun's threat still important?" ”

Song An was so little that his heart suddenly brightened.

Yes, if the emperor is not even afraid of Wu Zheng, how can he be afraid of Xia Wanchun?

Song An also laughed, "It turns out that the young master has already thought about it." ”

Wu Zheng shook his head and said, "I only want to be half better." ”

"Half?"

"Yes. Halfway! Wu Zheng sighed lightly, "There is still half of it, it depends on the baby's heart, is the threat of the Tartars heavy, or my threat?" If he thinks that my threat is heavier, then Wu Sangui's introduction of Duoduo into the customs will be repeated. ”

Song An became nervous, "That'...... The young master has to quickly transfer the Northern Expeditionary Army to Jiaxing Mansion, and if there is a change, he can also go north at any time. ”

Wu Zheng smiled bitterly: "I really want to." It's a pity that there is no will, how can our army go north? Insisting on sending troops can only cause an infighting, wouldn't it make the Tartars laugh? ”

Song An hurriedly said: "Then watch the Tartars go south?" ”

Wu Zheng patted Song An on the shoulder and said, "You think that baby is Wu Sangui and the like?" I don't think he revived the heart of the Ming Chamber, I still believe it. ”

"But what if?"

"No in case." Wu Zheng's expression was not as firm as his voice, yes, Bandang knows people's hearts.
