Chapter 201: The Merits of Su Manzi
The imperial court's edict has not come for a long time, Zheng Xunrui is a little breathless, after all, he has thought carefully before he made up his mind to write a fold, and he also wrote a letter to Wen Zhenmeng, explaining the necessity of the court to mobilize the border army to exterminate the Liukou, the fold should have arrived at the court a long time ago, but there was no reply, what is the situation.
The imperial court's edict did not arrive, but Yang Tingshu's letter did, talking about important adjustments in the imperial court.
Yang Cheng was allowed to be appointed to the office because of his advanced age, and Fan Jingwen, the left attendant of the Ministry of War, was appointed as the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, the imperial history of the right capital, and the counselor of the machine, which indicated that the top leader of Nanzhili was adjusted, Hong Chengchou was no longer in charge of Shaanxi, and Gan Xuekuo was appointed governor of Shaanxi.
As early as the fifth year of Chongzhen, Liu Zongzhou, Yin of Yingtianfu Mansion, was adjusted to Shuntianfu and served as the Yin of Shuntianfu, and Tang Shiji, who supervised the imperial history, served as Yin of Yingtianfu Mansion.
This adjustment is closely related to Yang Tingshu, after all, Yang Cheng is Yang Tingshu's grandfather, and Yang Cheng Zhishi means that Yang Tingshu has a large shortage of strength that he can rely on.
Zheng Xunrui didn't pay much attention to this adjustment, all his energy was on Zheng Jiajun's side.
Nearly two years have passed, Zheng Jinhong's intelligence network has slowly spread out, focusing on Liaodong, Beijing, and Nanjing, and at the same time began to infiltrate the interior of the Liukou, after all, Yan'an Mansion is the hometown of many leaders of the Liukou, so this kind of infiltration work is very easy to carry out, everyone cares about the situation at home, and the Liukou who are not strong-willed, after learning of the changes in their hometown, they left the team and went home, and the strong-willed people stayed in the team, but they would also ask someone to bring a letter to the family, and then among the Zheng family's army, There are a lot of people who used to be rogues.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zheng Jinhong vigorously developed the inside line of the Liukou.
The development speed of this inner line is the fastest, especially after the battle of Chezhou Gorge, Zheng Jinhong's main energy is to concentrate on the development of this dark line, through guò efforts, and the information about the Liukou has continuously converged to Yansui Town.
Although the speed of development is fast, Zheng Xunrui is still not very satisfied, after all, few people can break into the inner circle of the Liukou, and only by entering their inner circle can they know the most important information.
December has arrived, and the imperial edict has not yet arrived.
Xu Wanghua smiled, and took Su Manzi to the governor's yamen, in just one month, Su Manzi went through all the harsh training in the pro-military camp, and survived, even Zheng Jinhong and Yang He were surprised, after all, it was the young master who personally arranged it to the pro-military camp, and it was Xu Wanghua who introduced it, they paid special attention to it, and in the process of training, they increased the intensity of training, but Su Manzi endured it all, and he didn't say a word.
Zheng Jinhong and Yang He spoke highly of Su Manzi, believing that Su Manzi was a natural soldier and had a great future in the future.
Zheng Xunrui also knows these situations, and has absorbed Su Manzi as one of his core guards, directly following Hong Xinyu's side, Zheng Xunrui's core guards, need to take turns to guard the governor's yamen and guard the safety of the governor's yamen.
Su Manzi was absorbed as one of the core guards, and this was the first time he came to the governor's yamen to perform the task of guarding.
Zheng Xunrui knows the situation of every core guard, after all, these guards follow him all the time, if he can't grasp the details, he doesn't know when the danger will come.
When he entered the wing room and met Zheng Xunrui, the look on Su Manzi's face was much better, and the haze had long since disappeared.
"Su Manzi, you are very good, General Zheng and General Yang have a high evaluation of you, but don't be complacent, don't think that being by my side is satisfied, you have to think about the future, maybe one day, you will lead thousands of troops to fight."
Su Manzi's body trembled slightly.
"The subordinates obey the arrangement of the adults, and they obey the orders of the adults."
Zheng Xunrui smiled, he knew that these words must have been taught by Xu Wanghua, otherwise Su Manzi was a soldier who couldn't read big words, and he couldn't say such words.
"Okay, you are a soldier, not a scholar, don't be so literate when you talk to me, Mr. Xu taught you this, you must have studied for a long time, and you are uncomfortable, I also listen to it weirdly, Zhang's five big and three coarse, soft-spoken, if you speak in front of General Hong like this, he will definitely be impatient, and he will reprimand you."
Su Manzi's face turned red all of a sudden.
"The subordinates know, the subordinates just can't speak, and the gentleman teaches."
"Anyone can speak, it depends on how much you say and how little you say, when you are training in the barracks, you have a lot to say with many soldiers, who dares to say that you can't speak, you are a soldier, if you become a general in the future, in the face of the sergeants below, there are a lot of them, can the sergeants understand, so just keep your true colors, you don't want to become a scholar."
"Yes, but subordinates can't talk too casually in front of adults."
Zheng Xunrui smiled bitterly and waved his hand.
"Okay, okay, what Mr. Xu has taught you, don't follow along, otherwise you won't be able to speak in the future, how you spoke before, how you will say it in the future, the guards around me speak very directly, and they won't hide it, if you listen to Mr. Xu, they will definitely not be used to it, I'm afraid they won't be used to it."
"That's no problem, when the subordinates talk to them, it's very casual."
"In front of me, you have to be casual, you say that my personal guard, if you have to think about what you can and can't say, what you can say and what you can't say, in case of emergency, how to deal with it, do you have to think about it and say it, wouldn't it be a delay in time, you used to be a soldier in Ningxia Guard, and you know the rules of the army."
"The subordinates know that Zheng Jiajun's military regulations are much stricter, and they are not comparable to Ningxia Wei at all."
Zheng Xunrui nodded, ready to ask Su Manzi to go out on duty.
At this time, Su Manzi suddenly took the initiative to speak.
"My lord, when my subordinates were in Ningxiawei, I had a good relationship with Lord Baihu, and not long ago, Lord Baihu brought a message, saying that I should follow him."
"Oh, what are these hundred households doing now, where are they?"
"He is in the team of the rogue, saying that he is following Luo Rucai, and he is an officer under Luo Rucai."
Zheng Xunrui smiled, but the smile on his face quickly solidified, Su Manzi said these words, probably thinking of expressing loyalty, but in his opinion, it was different, this is an excellent dark line, if you can rebel against this hundred households, then you can get absolutely important information.
In the past, Ningxia Wei Baihu, the official position is indeed not big, it belongs to the grassroots officers, even if it stays in Ningxia Wei, after a few years, it can be promoted to the deputy thousand households, even if it is not simple, but such a person enters the Liukou team, it is different, you must know that the vast majority of the Liukou sergeants are farmers and homeless people, and there is not much military literacy, and the mutinous officers and sergeants are the absolute main force in the Liukou team.
"How many years have these 100 households taken refuge in the Liukou?"
"Chongzhen took refuge in the second year, and his subordinates went home because their father died."
Zheng Xunrui's expression became even more strict, which made Su Manzi's face change a little.
It can be expected that the status of this hundred households in the Liukou is not ordinary, it is a very important general, as the identity of the Ming Army Baihu, entering the Liukou team, it must be an officer, six years have passed, and it can be said that it is one of the core officers, I am afraid that it is one of the most important officers under Luo Rucai.
"Su Manzi, you won't do what you are on duty today for the time being, just wait at the governor's yamen, and General Zheng will look for you later."
Su Manzi was so frightened that he knelt down, and his face changed.
"My lord, my subordinates are loyal, I don't think about anything, my subordinates' lives are given by adults, and my subordinates will never surrender......"
Zheng Xunrui hurriedly pulled up Su Manzi.
"Su Manzi, I didn't doubt you, you think too much, General Zheng will find you in a while, you will understand the meaning, you have a heavy responsibility, if you do this well, you can make a great contribution, and then the Zheng family army will reward you for your meritorious deeds."
After Su Manzi stood up, he was very confused, he didn't know what kind of task he would accept.
Zheng Jinhong and Xu Wanghua entered the wing, and before the two could speak, Zheng Xunrui's words came out.
"Su Manzi just talked about a situation, his former boss, Ningxia Wei's Baihu, Chongzhen took refuge in Liukou in the second year, brought him a message, asking him to follow, after the Battle of Chebox Gorge, Liukou wantonly recruited people, this Baihu entrusted someone to Su Manzi to bring a message, it is normal, we have been trying to understand the core information of Liukou, but we have always been unable to do so, this is the best opportunity, Zheng Jinhong, you talk to Su Manzi directly, quickly find the person with the message, and strive to pull this Baihu over."
"As a hundred households of Ningxia Wei, in the team of Liukou for six years, the identity is definitely not ordinary, Su Manzi said, this hundred households are under the command of Luo Rucai, I estimate that this hundred households are the most important officers under Luo Rucai, and the identity may be second only to Luo Rucai, Zheng Jinhong, your task is to completely pull this hundred households over, he used to be the hundred households of Ningxia Wei, knowing that Liukou has no future, and he can join the Ming army again, he must be willing, you can make it clear, as long as he is willing to provide information about Liukou, I can guarantee that he will return to the Ming army and restore his former status. ”
After Zheng Jinhong listened, he quickly got up and went out to find Su Manzi.
"Mr. Xu, it's a shame that you saved Su Manzi and let him enter the Zheng family's army, otherwise it would be really difficult to deal with such a person when he entered the ranks of the rogues."
"My lord, my subordinates just thought about it, my lord's arrangement is very good, but to make this hundred households believe, they must be given a token, so that it is possible to make the hundred households die."
"What you said is right, I will immediately inform Zheng Jinhong that I must give this 100 households a token."
Zheng Xunrui stood up and looked at the map on the wall, a smile appeared on his face, he hoped that Zheng Jiajun would be able to take every step solidly
