A decree was handed down, and Wang Chengen, the superintendent of the Beijing camp, was promoted to the commander of Dongchang. As soon as this will came out, many people were taken aback.

Wang Chengen has only been out of the inner study hall for a few years, and the previous promotion has been impressive, but I didn't expect that it would be long before he was in charge of the East Factory again.

This news is a great stimulus for some young eunuchs, they seem to have been beaten with chicken blood, and they all want to behave better, in this case, if they can become Wang Chengen's second!

For Cao Huachun, this news is also good news. No matter what the relationship between him and Wang Chengen is, there is one thing that cannot be changed, that is, after Wang Chengen came out of the inner study hall, he was assigned to his name and was regarded as a person in his lineage. Now Wang Chengen is taking over his class and taking charge of the East Factory, which shows that the emperor transferred him to the celebrant to take charge of the seal eunuch, not because he suspected that he would have any bad intentions in mastering the East Factory.

This news, for the other eunuchs, made them fully see the benefits of working hard in front of the emperor. No, Cao Huachun and his godson are in important positions all of a sudden, this holy grace is very strong!

These people who served Emperor Chongzhen all wanted to behave well, in order to attract the emperor's attention and reuse. On the other hand, those who served the slave chieftain Amin on the Korean Peninsula were all terrified, and as Amin's time limit was approaching, these people were eager to disappear in front of Amin's eyes immediately, so as not to attract Amin's attention.

Amin has been unable to get an effective reward for a long time, and he has become more and more irritable. So much so that when the North Korean envoy came to ask for a reduction in food tribute again, he was hung up by Amin and beaten severely.

Towards the end of the evening, several of them finally stormed Amin's mansion in embarrassment and told them the latest military information.

"Master, it's the Ming army, it's the Ming army who ambushed us!" The man at the head puffed a little breathlessly, "About 400 or so Ming troops and many Korean routs besieged a Tanma, but they happened to be bumped into by the minions, and they were able to withdraw after desperate fighting. ”

"Impossible!" When Amin heard this, his face was full of disbelief, and he said a little hideously, "The scouts sent out are all in groups of fifty people, plus your team is more than a hundred people, how can it be your opponent with just four hundred Dongjiang Ming troops and Korean routs!" ”

He didn't believe it, as far as the Ming army in Dongjiang was concerned, even if the number of Dajin Tanma was not as good as theirs, as long as a round of bows and arrows was shot over, the Ming army rushed to the front and shot to death, and the rest of the iron army would scatter and flee. This kind of thing, even when Mao Wenlong was around, was a common occurrence.

"Master, this time the Ming army is different, their morale is very high, and even ...... He even wanted to encircle and annihilate us, so the troops were separated, so the minions were withdrawn! The man hastened to explain.

When Amin heard this, he thought he was quibbling and wanted to get away with it, but just as he was about to get angry, another team came back to tell him.

"Master, the slave caught some of the North Korean routs, and the interrogation learned that the Ming officials came over and took a lot of Ming troops to hide in the mountains. The last time the grain army was ambushed by the Ming army. They took all the food. After this man finished speaking, he even brought the North Korean soldiers he had interrogated, so that Amin could interrogate him personally.

Amin didn't care about losing his temper, and hurriedly interrogated him personally, combined with the intelligence of several teams of scouts, and finally let him know some information.

The Dongjiang Ming army really joined in, and as for the big officials and not the big officials, it was nothing more than the Ming generals on Phi Island. Grab food, hehe, I have long expected that they are also short of food! These bright dogs are still not leaving, it seems that the shortage of food is very serious!

None of the 1,000 food guards could come back before, it is estimated that they were filled with people, and they were also hungry, and the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry!

Amin thought, and with a turn of his mind, a plan suddenly appeared, don't you want food? Okay, I'll give you food!

At the same time, Lu Xiangsheng's side also received a notice that when he ambushed Jianyu Tanma, he was partially escaped. Wei Mulan, who was on the side, couldn't help but be a little worried when she heard it.

When Lu Xiangsheng saw it, he said with a smile: "It's okay, the news will leak sooner or later, this matter is expected." Now that we are in the dark, and the captives are in the light, in this case, the most we can do is to strengthen our defenses, but we can't help them. Wait a little longer, and see what Jianyu is doing. If it were possible, with the guerrilla tactics instructed by His Majesty, it would be unknown if they would eat these prisoners one bite at a time! ”

If in the past, Lu Xiangsheng really didn't think that he could kill 10,000 Jianyu with 2,000 men and horses. This kind of thing, under the premise that the elite level is not as good as Jianyu, is simply an unimaginable thing.

But now, he understands the guerrilla tactics that Emperor Chongzhen told him, relying on Korean volunteers, hiding in the shadows, and has eaten 14,500 prisoners. If you don't have a long memory and continue to send a team, you will eat it again, and accumulate small victories into big victories!

While they were talking, there was a sudden urgent report that Jianyu was now arresting the North Koreans everywhere to repair the official road and prepare to transport the remaining grain to Uiju. As for the slave chieftain Amin himself, he agreed to the North Korean demand, reduced the food supply, and led the troops to wait for the North Korean escort to arrive before returning to Liaodong.

As soon as he heard the word food, Lu Xiangsheng's eyes lit up. But Jianyu knew that there were 1,000 grain guards and the army was annihilated, and he dared to divide his troops like this, there must be some countermeasures.

Although Lu Xiangsheng was scarce about those grains, he was also very cautious, and immediately ordered to investigate the specific information again.

At the same time, in a remote house in northern Shaanxi, a group of people were also talking secretly.

"This is my brother's gift to everyone!" As he spoke, a strong man lifted the black cloth on the tabletop, revealing a silver ingot underneath, a full twenty ingots.

A group of people sitting around the table were all wearing the military robes of the Ming army's border guards, but there were a lot of patches, and even a few holes were not patched, obviously the living conditions were very bad.

When they saw the silver, their eyes lit up, but when they looked at the two similar-looking people sitting at the table, they saw that they did not speak, and they could only keep their minds silent.

"It's inconvenient to carry, it's just a small point." The strong man looked at the person at the table in front of him and said, "My brother said that Brother God is much more capable than my brother. Now my brother eats meat in large chunks and drinks wine in large bowls, and he doesn't have to be angry with birds, how comfortable! If the god brother is willing to do it together, my brother is willing to give up his position! ”

Hearing this, the older one on the other side was obviously a little tempted. But the younger one frowned and said, "Don't say anything nice!" Say, what happened to you Wang Jiayin, who wanted to encourage my brothers to take their comrades to rebel? ”
