Zhang Fengyi, who was stationed in Xuanzhou, had always been nervous, and Wu Sangui was even more uneasy than him.

Wu Sangui followed Su Tiancheng and did nothing, but lost the base of Shanhaiguan and the army that he had controlled for many years. Wu Sangui, who felt that there was nothing to do, chose to take refuge in the imperial court and Zhang Fengyi.

After the news of Su Tiancheng's victory in Liaodong came, Zhang Fengyi was very glad that the choice he made was correct, and he left Dengzhou fortunately, although this made the emperor and the court very dissatisfied, but keeping his own safety was the first thing. But what happened after that dazzled Zhang Fengyi.

The emperor greatly adjusted the cabinet scholars, and issued a clear Zhao, including Su Tiancheng's recitals, all of which were sent to the prefectures and counties through the Di newspaper, the meaning of which is very clear, Zhang Fengyi, who was in Xuanzhou, began to worry again, and the 30,000 army he led must have become the focus of attention from many parties at this time.

Thinking of confronting the Jiangning battalion, Zhang Fengyi would never make such a choice, this is looking for death, the combat effectiveness of the Jiangning battalion is too strong, the 30,000 army led by himself is not an opponent at all, and the geographical location of Xuanzhou is special, and it is necessary to rely on ships to be able to return to Shandong, and then return to Beizhili, to put it mildly, the 30,000 army was stuck in the throat by Su Tiancheng, if Su Tiancheng did not rule out the water division, they would not be able to leave Xuanzhou at all.

By this time. Zhang Fengyi realized that Su Tiancheng was powerful, every step was calculated so accurately, without the slightest error, on the surface, the 30,000 army was stationed in Xuanzhou, which posed a threat to Fuzhou and Dengzhou and other places, the emperor and the court probably thought the same way, the actual situation is that the 30,000 army cannot do anything. As long as you leave Xuanzhou. If you don't want to get close to Fuzhou, you will face the fate of annihilation on the way.

Zhang Fengyi, who was in torment, was in a very bad mood, and the 30,000 army was supported by the military salary of the imperial court. The sergeants were not treated very well. The difference with the Jiangning camp is too great. The officials in Xuanzhou, Fuzhou and other places are also very high, and their lives are comfortable. The sergeant was already dissatisfied.

However, officials in Xuanzhou and other prefectures and counties are polite and unkind to the army, and the army is absolutely not allowed to loot in Xuanzhou and other places, and is not allowed to harass the people, otherwise officials at all levels will report to the governor's office, and corresponding punishment measures will follow.

After a short period of time, Zhang Fengyi felt that he was about to lose his ability to stabilize the army of 30,000.

If it weren't for the gold and silver treasures obtained by some sergeants in Pyongyang, I am afraid that there would have been a mutiny long ago, or they would have defected directly to the Gangning camp.

But Zhang Fengyi still wants to be loyal to the imperial court, he once served as the secretary of the military department, and won the trust of the emperor, in this case, he took refuge in Su Tiancheng and betrayed the emperor, that is something that does not need to be thought about, but he can't bring back the 30,000 army, he can't return to the court, even if the emperor understands his hardships, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty will not give up, especially those in the imperial history and giving things, standing and talking without backache, where will you care what situation you are facing.

Zhang Fengyi also discussed with some of his subordinate officers, but judging from the performance of some officers, they didn't seem to care much about the battle, on the contrary, what these officers said the most was the courage of the Jiangning battalion, in the battles of Gaizhou and Liaodong, the extermination of the Houjin Tartars of more than 100,000 people, such a victory, so that all officers worshipped, and soldiers always have a sense of honor.

Zhang Fengyi felt that something was wrong, and only then did he think of Wu Sangui at this time.

To say that after Wu Sangui followed him to Xuanzhou, Zhang Fengyi didn't pay attention to it at all, because Wu Sangui had no influence in the Jiangning camp, and he almost misjudged at the beginning, if he believed Wu Sangui, I am afraid that something would happen in Dengzhou, since this Wu Sangui can't help him anything, just ignore it.

When Wu Sangui entered the house, Zhang Fengyi's face was very bad, and he rubbed his forehead.

"My lord summoned me, and my subordinates have come down."

"Oh, it's General Wu, please sit down, this official wants to chat with you today, and there is nothing special about it."

Wu Sangui sat down at the bottom very well, completely without the previous arrogance, the cruel reality polished Wu Sangui depressed.

"General Wu, it's been okay for a while."

"Lord Qiyu, everything is fine with my subordinates, thank you for your concern."

"In this way, the official thinks of a lot of things now, just say that the 30,000 troops are stationed in Xuanzhou, and they can't go up to the world or the ground, and they say that they will go back to Beizhili, it is impossible for the time being, and they will leave Xuanzhou, there is no place to go, you see, in this case, what choice should the official make."

Wu Sangui is not stupid at all, he is very clear about the situation, to say that Wu Sangui is not simple, the main thing is to judge the situation, he has already judged the current situation, it is a matter of time before the court and Su Tiancheng turn around, and Wu Sangui firmly believes that it must be Su Tiancheng who will win the victory and rule the world in the end.

It is also because of such a judgment that Wu Sangui was very annoyed, if he continued to be in Dengzhou, even if he was idle, he would be much stronger than now, and when he came to Zhang Fengyi's side, he would not be reused, let alone get the attention of the imperial court, and when he returned to Shanhaiguan, don't think about it, the situation in Shanhaiguan has long changed, Lu Xiangsheng is the governor of Liaodong, and it is also difficult to be reused if he goes.

Therefore, Wu Sangui needs to return to Su Tiancheng's side, but just go back like this, Su Tiancheng will not look at himself with his eyes, then he needs to go back after making meritorious service, and the hope of meritorious service is in the body of the 30,000 army.

Wu Sangui has long been among the officers, preaching the courage of the Jiangning battalion, after all, he has been in the Jiangning battalion for many years, and many officers are still very envious when they hear the stories he said, and they all want to be able to enter the Jiangning battalion, not only with high military salaries, but also to be able to kill the enemy on the battlefield, how comfortable. Wu Sangui did everything very secretly, and Zhang Fengyi, who was preoccupied, didn't notice at all that the source of those changes among the officers was Wu Sangui.

Now that Zhang Fengyi is chatting about these things, he is actually asking for his opinion, how could Wu Sangui let go of such an opportunity.

"My lord, my subordinates feel the same way, but the current situation is a little difficult, it is not very possible for the 30,000 army to leave Xuanzhou, if Lord Su does not give an order, the 30,000 army will not be able to cross the sea, Haizhou and Yaozhou will be occupied by the Houjin Tartars, and it will not be possible to go to Liaodong by land."

Zhang Fengyi's face was even more ugly, Wu Sangui was talking about the actual situation, and there was no way out for the 30,000 army.

"My lord, my subordinates have thought of a solution."

"Oh, tell me what's going to be done."

Hearing Wu Sangui say this, Zhang Fengyi's spirit was slightly better.

"Your Excellency still has to let the court pay attention to the situation here, so that you can think of a way."

"This official has thought of it a long time ago, but the meaning of the imperial court is probably to let the army be stationed in Xuanzhou."

"The subordinates understand, but the imperial court does not know the specific situation here, Xuanzhou was originally a barren land, 30,000 troops are stationed here, it is difficult to play any role, these situations, the imperial court does not know the road, the subordinates suggested, the lord can go back to the capital, directly report the situation here to the imperial court, and implore the emperor to decree that the army return to Beizhili, according to the ideas of the subordinates, the emperor has decreed, and Lord Su must handle it in accordance with the will."

"There is some truth in what you said, but what if Lord Su does not allow the army to leave."

"My lord said this, my subordinates will be courageous, if Lord Su does not obey the order, even if the lord waits in Xuanzhou, it has no effect, after a long time, the hearts of the soldiers can not be stabilized, and there may be bigger problems, the lord has reported a lot of information to the court, but the court has not had an edict, in this case, the subordinates suggested, the lord or go back to the capital directly, directly report the situation here to the emperor, maybe things have a turnaround."

Wu Sangui's meaning is very clear, if Su Tiancheng wants to rebel, there is no other way out for the 30,000 army, Zhang Fengyi and others are in Xuanzhou, they are also seeking their own death, if Su Tiancheng cares about other aspects, maybe the 30,000 army will still have a glimmer of life, but no matter what, Zhang Fengyi left Xuanzhou, even if it is safe, some responsibilities are not on his head Zhang Fengyi.

Such a suggestion is indeed heartfelt.

Zhang Fengyi nodded.

"There is some truth in what General Wu said, this official thinks about it, okay, you go and get busy first."

Wu Sangui, who left the room, had a strange smile on his face, he quickly returned to the room, closed the door, took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and prepared to write a letter, Wu Sangui did not read much, but he was very smart since he was a child, he knew how to observe words and feelings, and he would grasp his own destiny at a critical moment.

Wu Sangui was ready to write a letter directly to Su Tiancheng, reporting the situation of the 30,000 army to Su Tiancheng, suggesting that Zhang Fengyi leave Xuanzhou and go to the imperial court to report, in fact, it was to support Zhang Fengyi, and the next thing was logical, encouraging the army to directly join Su Tiancheng and strive to join the ranks of the Jiangning battalion.

Zhang Fengyi decided to adopt Wu Sangui's suggestion, took a few henchmen and officers, went to the capital, and directly reported the situation, at present, it seems that there is only this way, always waiting in Xuanzhou, there is not much way out, in case Su Tiancheng and the court fall out, he may not even get the holy decree, by that time, everything is too late.

Zhang Fengyi would never have imagined that Wu Sangui had other ideas, but even if he knew the truth, Zhang Fengyi had no other choice but to go to the capital first and then think of other ways. (To be continued......)
