Chapter 186

Li Qiufeng shook his head and said: "General Sang, although Zhao Zhen is said to be a squire of the military department, but among the Beijing officials, with his rank, can he do such a big thing? I'm afraid that if you send him to the capital, you will fall into the hands of those big guys." At that time, Zhao Zhen will either be killed, or bite back, and all the felonies of rebellion will be blamed on General Sang. At that time, I am afraid that General Sang will not be able to distinguish between ......"

Sang Liangtian gritted his teeth and muttered: "I shouldn't have listened to the words of this dog thief surnamed Zhao in the first place, so I ended up like today, and there is no basis for advancing and retreating, alas, ......"

Li Qiufeng said: "Since Master Sang doesn't care about humility and wants to listen to Li's words, Li has an idea......"

Sang Liangtian said: "Li Baihu said yes. ”

Li Qiufeng said: "Who transferred the soldiers and horses from Shanhaiguan here, I think General Sang also knows it." At present, the situation is treacherous, and it seems that there are clear camps, but in fact, everyone is a wall-to-wall grass, and they are all waiting to see the changes in the political situation. Li Mou dared to make a bet with the general, as long as the situation changed, those bigwigs who were still shouting for loyalty to Emperor Jiajing today would be the first to hand over the letter of surrender tomorrow. ”

Sang Liangtian scratched his head and said, "Li Baihu is not bad at what he said. To tell the truth, since the general was transferred to the imperial mausoleum, there have been many envoys sent by important figures in the capital to contact the general, some are lobbyists for the vassal king, and some are the cronies of the celebrities around the emperor today. General Ben listened to Zhao Zhen's words this time, and it was he who got the alliance of the four Shangshu lords......"

Sang Liangtian said this, got up and walked to the entrance of the big tent, lifted the curtain and looked, and saw that the tent was heavily guarded, and there were more than 100 elite soldiers standing, so he returned to his seat and whispered to Li Qiufeng: "I heard that the first emperor is still alive......"

Li Qiufeng's heart sank, and he said, "General Sang, this is not a joke. ”

Sang Liangtian said: "How dare General Ben joke about such a big matter? When Zhao Zhen found me, in addition to holding the alliance letters of the four Shangshu lords, there were also several handwritten edicts from the cabinet scholars. The most important thing is that he said that the first emperor left an edict to eliminate the rebels. And it is said that the first emperor is still alive in the world, manipulating everything behind his back. ”

Li Qiufeng suddenly remembered that when they were in the Gu family's old store, Liu Kang and Yang Tinghe had both said that they were looking for someone. Now that they think about it, the person they are looking for is likely to be Emperor Zhengde, the first emperor. It's just that Emperor Zhengde died twelve years ago, if he was still alive, how could he be so easily usurped the throne by King Xingxian? Moreover, Emperor Zhengde behaved frivolously and had an impatient temperament, even if he was forced to abdicate by King Xingxian, how could he endure so many years before he became troubled?

Sang Liangtian saw that Li Qiufeng's face was cloudy, and then said: "The old thief surnamed Liu just said that the little cub is the dragon species of the first emperor, but I'm afraid it's not fake. But this thing is too weird for us to believe it. Li Baihu, at present, the major forces in the DPRK and China are entangled, you are from the capital, and you are on an errand in the Jinyi Guard, and I hope to give General Ben an idea. If he can get out of this difficulty, this general will definitely have a very heavy reward. ”

Li Qiufeng said: "Li doesn't want anything in return. It's just that there are many friends in Yong'an City now, General Sang continues to fight like this, and the city will be broken sooner or later, but I am afraid that when the jade will be burned, Li and these friends will be turned into ashes with Yong'an City, so they are willing to take risks to beg the general to stop the army. ”

Sang Liangtian said: "Li Baihu's words are serious. General Ben was only deceived by Zhao Zhen, and now that his conspiracy has been exposed, this Yong'an City will not be attacked again. ”

Li Qiufeng shook his head and said, "No, General Yong'an City will continue to attack." ”

Sang Liangtian was stunned, not knowing what Li Qiufeng meant by this. I only heard Li Qiufeng continue: "Since the general wants to get out of this difficulty, there is only one way now, and that is to make great contributions to the imperial court." The soldiers and horses of Shanhaiguan hid in the Nanshan Mountain, and sat and watched General Sang besiege Yong'an City, which was to wait for the rescue troops of Xuanfu and Datong to come to help, and took advantage of the emptiness of the capital to attack the capital and seek to usurp the throne. At present, the reinforcements of Xuanfu and Datong have already set off, and the general can leave a small number of soldiers and horses to continue to besiege Yong'an City, make the appearance of fighting hard, and secretly transfer most of the troops and horses to the road that the soldiers and horses of Shanhaiguan must pass through to attack the capital, and suddenly attack when they pass by, thwarting their conspiracy, this merit is very great!"

Sang Liangtian's eyes were good, he thought for a moment, stood up and paced a few steps in the big tent, and said to Li Qiufeng: "Li Baihu's plan is good. There is only one way to live or die, and this is the only way to do it!"

Li Qiufeng said: "To do this big thing, there are three things that need to be done well. The first thing is to confirm which road the soldiers and horses of Shanhaiguan will attack the capital by. If the judgment is wrong, then the matter is not only useless, but has been done. Second, General Sang is the biggest target of Shanhaiguan's military surveillance, and I think there must be a detailed work of various factions in your army. The soldiers and horses left behind to besiege Yong'an City must be commanded by you personally, so that the matter will not be leaked. In this way, the general sent to lead the ambush must be your confidant and favorite general, and this person must be very cautious. Third, General Sang must send a reliable person to directly submit General Sang's note to the emperor and make the matter known to the emperor. It's just that the song has to go through the cabinet and then hand it over to the eunuch of the celebrant and the eunuch before it can be handed over to the emperor. Through the hands of these people, the matter must be leaked out. I have to think of a way to be able to go straight to the heavens......"

Sang Liangtian said: "This thing is easy to do. To tell the truth, although General Ben has been leading troops outside these years, he also knows the rules every year, and he has given a lot of gifts to his father-in-law who works in the palace, which is to make a few trustworthy eunuchs. Among them, there are the cronies of the eunuch Bingbi, and it is not difficult to send it directly. General Ben led his troops to continue the siege of Yong'an City, and the ones sent to intercept the rebels were naturally my henchmen. I don't dare to say that my army is as strict as the Yue family's army, but it is also united. Since the day of Xuan and Da, this army has been under my command, that is, every squad has a spy from the general. The generals under him are also old men who have been used by this general for many years, and they have a temperament, but I am afraid that I know better than their wives, so I don't have to worry about this. As for which way the soldiers and horses of Shanhaiguan will attack the capital......"

Sang Liangtian said this, walked to the front of the long case, took a large map made of sheepskin from the side of the case and spread it out, looked at it carefully for a long time, and then said to Li Qiufeng: "If the rebels want to attack the capital, they must be dominated by cavalry, because they will not choose rugged mountain roads, and they will not choose waterways, so there are only two roads left." One is to go straight to the capital along the road west of Yong'an City, which is also the closest road from Yong'an to the capital. It's just that after the reinforcements from Xuan and Dafu arrive in Yong'an, they will inevitably camp in Xicheng. If the rebels march towards this road from Nanshan, they must first pass through Nancheng, where there are also our troops, and then go to Xicheng Road. It's just that in this way, it will be difficult for the cavalry of the rebels to hide their tracks. They will not choose this road, but will only choose this road from the south of Nanshan to the west to attack the capital. Although this road is fifty or sixty miles farther than the first road, it is located south of Nanshan, and when the soldiers and horses move, they will not be noticed in the south and west directions of Yong'an City. Moreover, the rebels were mainly cavalry, and the extra fifty or sixty miles were only a meal for them. If you want to ambush the rebels, you only need to choose the main road south of Nanshan. ”

Li Qiufeng said: "Li Mou doesn't understand these things on the battle formation at all. General Sang has been in battle for a long time, and it must be a good arrangement if he wants to come. ”

Sang Liangtian excitedly turned around the tent a few times, turned to Li Qiufeng and said: "The reinforcements from the Xuan and Da Prefectures will inevitably arrive at Yong'an City within three days, and the rebels will also sneak attack the capital in these days." I will send my troops to ambush the rebels, and the soldiers and horses who ambush the rebels will quietly set off tonight. As for the siege of Yong'an City, it will be led by General Ben himself. There happened to be more than 4,000 Tartar soldiers of Duoyan Sanwei, these people were all cavalry, and I asked them to attack the city. In the past few years, we have listened to Zhao Zhen's arrangement, and have stored a large number of grain and grass equipment in Yong'an City, with no less than 300,000 feather arrows. You go back and tell the guards in the city that you must not go out of the city to meet the battle, take out hundreds of thousands of feathered arrows, and wait for the Tartars to attack the city, and the city will shoot ten thousand arrows in unison, shooting fucking salted duck eggs. Moreover, the general only let the Tartar soldiers attack the eastern gates, and the other gates did not need to be defended. In the past three days, it is estimated that the Tartar soldiers have almost died. Lao Tzu had already seen that the Tartars were not pleasing to the eye, and he didn't want to borrow troops from Duoyan Sanwei, but Zhao Zhen, the dog thief, insisted on letting these bastards come here. Just borrow the hands of the defenders of Yong'an City to kill them all!"
