Under the scorching sun, west of Jinan, more than 20 miles north of Liaocheng on the bank of the canal, tens of thousands of troops camped for more than ten miles, since Li Yan, Huang Degong and others led the main force of the south, although all the way non-stop, but the hot weather is more than 20 miles, the foot is slightly slow, but it is also helpless.

Under the shade of the tree, Li Yan just came out of the water, wiped it dry and even blew hot wind, frowning and looking into the distance: "It's too hot, and the soldiers who rush to the wounded also hurt the horses."

Huang Degong put down the water bag in his hand and couldn't help but scold: "Damn, it's cold to fight in winter, and hot to fight in summer, I just want to soak in water and don't want to go anywhere."

"Do you want to get two or two more wines, you will be more comfortable with a girl" Ma Ke came over and scolded with a smile, Huang Degong laughed: "You can have wine, girls, I......'ve been very tired lately" Saying that, his eyes rolled and looked at Ma Ke and Wu Weiying: "It's Liaocheng ahead, if you don't enter the city when the time comes...... Ahem, ahem".

Seeing his frowning appearance, Wu Weiying snorted at Li Yan, meaning obviously, can he pass his level.

Sure enough, Huang Degong sighed and looked lonely, and asked casually: "General Li, can you go into the city to get some wine to drink when you go to Liaocheng?" “

"No, the overseer has an order before leaving, and the people must not be disturbed during the march, and you are not allowed to enter the city if it is not necessary" Li Yan looked at a few people with a smile: "This is not unkind, but it is difficult to disobey the military order."

Chicken feathers are arrows, Huang Degong scolded in his heart, but he laughed on his lips: "Come on, it's not too late to have fun when you get to the ground."

"The ground? That's thousands of miles away, General Huang can bear it" Wu Weiying is not old-hearted, and smiled obscenely. Huang Degong disagreed: "It doesn't take so far, when you arrive in Xuzhou, then Gao Jie can't fulfill the friendship of a landlord?" “

It's also oh, everyone realized that when the little eunuch hired people, he would win over Gao Jie, and Gao Jie was eager to hug his thighs and naturally go on the pole to please the little eunuch, now is their honeymoon period, and when they get to Gao Jie's territory, they must have all kinds of guest hospitality, and everyone can also get a light.

When everyone looked at me and was thinking about good things, I suddenly saw a few horsemen coming in the distance, and I couldn't help frowning, could it be that there was a mess in Jinan.

Just a few days ago, Chang Yu sent someone to send a group of people to Jinan to take over the salary, it is said that the amount is huge, Li Yan sent Ji Jike and Hao Shaoqi to be responsible for escorting, but he was still afraid that something would go wrong, after all, there are many horses in Shandong, and it is not without precedent to rob officials and silver.

"Report, General Li, Wu Sangui is ten miles behind, begging to see the general!"

Wu Sangui? Li Yan and the others were dumbfounded!

What's wrong with him? If Li Yan was a little bit psychologically foreshadowed, after all, Chang Yu had mentioned this matter to him slightly, but Huang Degong, Ma Ke and the others were completely dumbfounded, which was really unexpected.

Ning Yuan is the gate of the Ming Dynasty, and among the most important, Wu Sangui did not guard the country and actually transferred troops south?

What happened!

This matter is indescribable, and it can't be said, Wu Sangui is like a dumb person who can't say the bitterness of eating Coptis chinensis, he has been holding back a fire in his belly since he was in the capital, but he has no way to vent, just desperately hurrying.

His 5,000 soldiers and horses are all iron horses, and it is a bit exaggerated to travel thousands of miles a day, but it is not difficult to travel more than 100 miles, and he has caught up with Li Yan and others within a few days of pulling out the camp.

Wu Sangui and Huang Degong Ma Ke are both old acquaintances, and Li Yan was also in contact with him during the Ningyuan War, and he heard that he came to meet him in front of him, although he felt a little embarrassed, but he also knew that these people were now the henchmen and main generals of the little eunuch, and even if he went south to make money, he had to do it on the surface, at least he had to maintain friendly contacts with these generals.

"Old Wu, why did you follow Ning Yuan south if you didn't guard it?" Huang Degong is a straight-eyed person, and when he came up and opened his mouth, he asked, Wu Sangui shrugged: "We are generals, and we act according to orders, and the emperor may think that I have not made much progress in that mountain, so I will follow a few uncles and marquis to grow my skills."

"Oh, your mouth is really bad!" Huang Degong scolded with a smile: "Seriously, why did you go south? ”

Wu Sangui said seriously: "It's really an order, at least there has been no war in Taiping outside the Guanxi for more than a year, and the strategic focus of the imperial court is in the Yangtze River Valley.

"That'...... You're here, who's going to be in charge outside the gate? Although the Tartars failed miserably this time, they should not be taken lightly! The court is like this, I'm afraid it's too careless." Marco worried.

Wu Sangui couldn't see a trace of displeasure on his face, and said with a smile: "Ning Yuan is the most important country gate, how can the imperial court not be fully prepared, now that my uncle is in charge, the Tartar does not want to take a step."

Your uncle? Huang Degong was stunned, and then shocked: "Zu Dashou? He's back? “

"Yes!" Wu Sangui nodded: "A few days ago, the little overseer personally exchanged it from the Tartars, yes, in exchange for Azig."

Just changed back, he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, sitting in Ningyuan? Not only Huang Degong Ma Ke and others were surprised, but Li Yan also felt incredible, several people looked at each other, Wu Sangui observed his words, it seems that this matter should be done by the little eunuch and Emperor Chongzhen secretly, these people are also in the dark, thinking of this heart is a little more comfortable.

Under the shade of the tree, Wu Sangui sat on the ground with Li Yan and others, chatting about various topics in the past few days, and spitting at the mouth.

"Where is the little overseer at this time?" Wu Sangui asked curiously.

"I want to eat" Huang Degong said casually, Wu Sangui looked puzzled: "Want food?" “

"These tens of thousands of mouths have to eat and drink every day, and the power of the court depends on the little overseer to fight the autumn wind everywhere" Li Yan smiled bitterly, and Wu Sangui understood: "Then, where is it now...... Beggar? “

Li Yan shook his head: "I was still in Jinan a few days ago, but I don't know now, maybe I'm in Yanzhou or Xuzhou."

"Jinan? Isn't that Liu Zeqing's territory, wouldn't the little overseer beg for food from him? Wu Sangui seemed to smile: "I'm afraid that if the bowl is broken, I won't be able to get a bite."

Hey, hey, Li Yan, Huang Degong and others laughed similarly, and Wu Sangui, who was laughing, was confused and a little weak: "Didn't you guess wrong, then Liu Zeqing is a well-known master who only enters but can't leave......"

"That guy is indeed a master who only enters but can't leave, but the little overseer is a master who doesn't go empty" Li Yan smiled: "And Jinan is not only Liu Zeqing, but also a vassal king......"

"King Nade, a poor and white ......" Wu Sangui said for a moment, looked at Li Yan and said, "Could it be the little overseer......

"Not only did I get it, but I also had a lot of money" Ma Ke said with a serious face: "800,000 silver, tens of thousands of stones, grain and grass......"

Yes! Wu Sangui had a long mouth, and he didn't get back for a long time.

The little eunuch has such a skill, what method can he use to get so much from an iron rooster and a poor vassal king!

King Nade didn't know how to be willing to help, but it was certain that Liu Zeqing must have fallen for his calculations, and Wu Sangui could be sure in his heart, because even a shrewd person like himself would be calculated by the little eunuch, not to mention that money is stupid.

"King Lu of Yanzhou Mansion has just attacked the lord for a few months, and his little overseer who has no money and no food has not come to the door to beg, and it is estimated that he will not be able to enter the door, and he should go to Xuzhou now" Wu Sangui said lightly after relieving himself.

Li Yan and others thought so.

Immediately everyone discussed the matter of marching, there are still seven or eight hundred miles to Xuzhou, the weather is hot and most of them are foot soldiers, the marching speed is slow, and Wu Sangui is all cavalry, although it can go first, but its grain and grass supply is a problem, so they discussed going south, and finally decided to go with Li Yan and others first, and listened to the decision of the little eunuch after arriving in Xuzhou.
