"Hehe," he said with a sneering smile in the previous voice: "He brought a lot of people, and he came out quietly from the back camp, not even raising the fire, and walking in a hurry, I'm afraid it's not that simple." Strategist, we came here together back then, we are both fellow villagers and brothers in life and death, what can't we say? There are no outsiders here. ”

There was a slight sound of tea cups falling on the table in the tent, and Zhao Quan's voice said: "Tingfu, if I am a person who doesn't miss the old love, you and Yanwen can achieve this official position now? I've never treated you as outsiders, and you shouldn't treat yourself as outsiders. ”

The man from before laughed twice.

Zhao Quandao: "Yes, Huang Taiji's visit is indeed an important matter, but this matter is very important, and the Great Khan has strictly forbidden the spread of the news, otherwise the army's morale will be shaken, and the consequences will be unimaginable." Tingfu, you do what you should do well, and if you don't ask anything else, you should let you know, I naturally won't hide it from you. ”

Qin Juexiang felt familiar when he heard the name he called, and suddenly remembered: "Yes, An Ziteng mentioned the names of these traitors that day, and one of them was named Wang Tingfu, and there were also Zhang Yanwen and Li Zixin." Hehe, one sheep is to drive, and two sheep are also released, listen to what you say first, and then leave to put the head of this surnamed king on the other!"

Wang Tingfu said: "If you don't want to say, I can also guess one or two, what good thing can there be when someone from the family reports the news? It's not Warat to attack, or there is civil strife in various departments, alas, if it is really a fire in the backyard, then we can't advance or retreat, but we will become lonely ghosts." ”

Zhao Quan's voice was a little displeased: "There is no reason and no basis, what are you guessing randomly? If the Great Khan knows, it will not cure you to disturb the morale of the army!"

Wang Tingfu sneered twice and stopped talking, which seemed to be very unwilling. After a while, Zhao Quancai said: "Forget it! The matter is not as serious as you think! Let me tell you the truth, the messenger reported that the Ningxia general soldier Lei Long led 50,000 troops out of the fortress, and the Yuan'er Dusi couldn't resist it, so he had to ask for help. There was no way, so Huang Taiji was sent to rescue him. ”

Qin Juexiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and secretly wondered that Lord Wang Chonggu had really sent people to send troops, and he had won the battle! Why didn't he send people to get in touch with Datong? Yes, I replied that he sent cavalry to patrol around the city every day, and even birds had to shoot down, and there was no communication between inside and outside, so he couldn't get in touch. Hehe, although Mr. Lei didn't hit Tumut's lair, he stabbed me in the back, and this time it was enough for him to drink a pot.

"I see. Wang Tingfu pondered for a moment and said: "But the eldest prince took away more than 30,000 people, how can Datong fight this? In previous years, the fire gun was enough to give people a headache, and now they are equipped with Franc machine guns, we don't even have firearms in our hands, and the men and horses are diverted, isn't it a death to attack hard?"

Zhao Quan sighed lightly: "A large number of good horses that went south to loot that day filled the moat in vain, not to mention, tens of thousands of people died after a strong attack, such a tragic battle has never been before." The eagle wing kite I improvised didn't play a big role, and I couldn't take down Datong in one go, and my morale was greatly shaken. It's just that Mo Rigen sent a message saying that he had blown up the powder magazine and spread the epidemic in the city, so he was a little reluctant, so he stayed still and stayed until now. Now that the accident has happened to the company, it has to be withdrawn if it is not withdrawn. ”

Wang Tingfu snorted coldly and said: "Even if a part of the troops is divided, our main army still has 60,000 horses left, stay to besiege and not attack, hold on for a little longer, the epidemic in Datong will spread, maybe we will be able to raise the city and surrender, if it weren't for Zhong Jin's little Niangpi and Sonam Gyatso's stinky lama who continued to persuade in front of the Great Khan, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to make up his mind to withdraw his troops so quickly, hey, it seems that our plan to be the king of Tu will be delayed again." ”

Zhao Quanchang took a long breath and said lightly: "It's a pity that the artillery of the Ming army didn't kill her that day, but this is also a helpless thing." Unqi defended the lord with his body, and more than 30 pieces of shrapnel in his body did not die, which can also be called a miracle, and Zhong Jin may not be killed. I see that the Great Khan does not have the ambition to swallow the state and tear the land, even if he lays down Datong, at most he will slaughter the city after plundering, he will not stay here, let alone hand over the city to us to manage, he is scheming, very shrewd, our ideas, may not be in his calculations, this is also to blame me, that day to persuade him to follow the story of Shi Jin, is to show his feet, let him have some suspicions, now he is using us to be vigilant, not as trusting as before, everything must be cautious. Alas, it is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen, and there are some things that cannot be rushed in a hurry. ”

Qin Juexiang crouched in the shadow behind the chair and pondered: "It turns out that this traitor stayed in the camp like a rat crossing the street, hehe, this is really deserved, you are originally a Han Chinese, and when you get to the Tartar pile, it is a dog into the wolf pack, of course, you only have the share of licking the ass for others! ”

Wang Tingfu said: "What's the use of being cautious and careful? Zhao Quan asked: "What are your plans?" Wang Tingfu said in a low voice: "The eldest prince Huang Taiji is very interested in our plan, and now that I am old, sooner or later everything will fall into the hands of Huang Taiji, we might as well focus on accepting him as soon as possible, in order to plan for the future." ”

When Zhao Quan heard this, he was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "Tingfu, aren't you...... I've already taken refuge in Huang Taiji?"

Wang Tingfu smiled: "Brother Zhao, I can't hide anything from your eyes, to be honest, I did have a secret relationship with Huang Taiji." ”

Zhao Quan said coldly: "In this way, you must have known about Huang Taiji's going to save Dusi, but you came to me to make up and listen to it, what kind of heart did you have?"

Wang Tingfu smiled: "Brother Zhao, no matter how they are, they are all Tartars, they are of different races, they are always separated by a heart, think about it, if I really take you seriously, why don't you let you put your tent in the Iron Guard Camp, but instead separate it outside the fence? What is our relationship? We are both fellow townsmen, and brothers in life and death, we share blessings and share blessings, and brothers in trouble do it for you, no matter when, as a brother, I always think about your good, if you suspect that your brother will stumble on you, it will really be wronged." ”

Zhao Quan snorted.

Wang Tingfu said: "I replied that in the past, he trusted us and obeyed you, but now the situation is different, and it is the third lady Zhong Jin who obeys his words! Zhong Jin doesn't look down on us, and there is no less bad things to say, and my answer to our vigilance is getting heavier and heavier, and this tree can no longer be relied on." ”

Qin Juexiang was a little impatient when he heard their conversation, and was about to take his killer and take the heads of two traitors back to the city to ask for merit, but when he said this, he hesitated a little in his heart, and said: "Could it be that this surnamed Wang wants to betray me and abandon the darkness and turn to the light?"

I only heard Zhao Quan sigh softly on the chair, without words. Wang Tingfu continued: "Huang Taiji is simple-minded, he is a brave man, and he is the heir to the throne of Khan in the future, there is no harm in following him, I will die in the future, let's set Huang Taiji, then you can be the master of the Tartars, and when the time comes, use their soldiers and horses to start an incident, break the wild goose gate, invade the upper valley, and occupy Taiyuan, I will take these two places as the base according to the clouds, recruit soldiers and horses, accumulate grass and grain, and Wang Tu hegemony, is it not easy to do it!"

Zhao Quan shook his head and said: "Although I am over sixty years old, I am in good health, what year can I ......" He realized something, suddenly paused, and said in a dumb voice: "What do you mean......"

Wang Tingfu smiled silently.

Zhao Quan waited for a while before he said: "What you just said is indeed reasonable, but this matter still needs to be considered in the long run, I have a good understanding of wisdom and scheming, and Zhong Jin complements each other, and generals such as Wu Enqi, Sukhba Shou, and Bozhigud are even more loyal to him. The fire eyebrows looked at the front of him first, and it was better to wait for the safe withdrawal. ”

Qin Juexiang heard that the two of them did not have the intention of rebelling against me and rejoining the Ming Dynasty, but wanted to establish themselves as kings, and he took a sip in his heart, and immediately wanted to jump out and kill the two.

Wang Tingfu smiled: "Okay." There is plenty of time, Brother Zhao slowly thinks about it. By the way, on this trip to the south, I got a lot of gold, silver, treasures, horses, and livestock, and I had to escort these together with the baggage. Zhao Quandao: "I have already instructed the rear army to clean up, in order to avoid the enemy from discovering it, the Great Khan ordered to leave tomorrow night after dark." Wang Tingfu sighed: "If the matter of the Jacket Dusi is spread all over the army, I am afraid that everyone will be in danger, and the formation will be chaotic, if the Ming army notices that something is different, and covers up and kills from behind, then we can change from retreating to defeated, not to mention the wounded soldiers, not to mention the loss of these things, and the loss is immeasurable. ”

Zhao Quan snorted, leaning his back heavily on the chair: "Isn't it? The knowledge of retreating troops is no less than that of attacking, and the defeat of the troops is like a mountain! Fighting a war is all about the momentum, and if the situation is discouraged, it is useless to have more people." In order to ensure that he does not lose, the Great Khan will personally supervise the queen this time, which shows his attention. ”

Wang Tingfu said: "Anyway, I'm idle in the front army, why don't you transfer me to escort the baggage tomorrow?"

Zhao Quandao: "You have the idea of fighting these things again? Money and foreign things, with the current situation, it is better for you to restrain yourself, so as not to be caught by Zhong Jin!"

Wang Tingfu smiled: "Then you can relax, brother can still have a sense of proportion?"

Qin Juexiang crouched behind his chair, fighting in his heart, thinking that if he let the two of them go, he didn't know how many years they would have to wait for them to be in turmoil in Tatar, rather than that, it would be better to kill these two traitors now, cut off their heads and return to the city, and ask for a great success. Thinking that he could show his pride in front of others, he almost laughed out loud, and just as he was about to get up with a knife, he heard footsteps outside the tent, and someone shouted in Mongolian: "Where is the military advisor!"
