Chapter seven hundred and eighty eighth unscrupulous father
"Fourteenth Young Master!?" Upon hearing this title, Wu Shigong understood. It turned out that this butler was sent by his father Wu Weizhong. He took another closer look and remembered who the butler was. He had also fought with Wu Shigong.
I have an acquaintance with Manager Hong who persuaded Wu Shigong to give the salt farm shares to his father.
After thinking about it, Wu Shigong's face darkened. Being taken away from the salt farm was not a pleasant thing. Wu Shigong couldn't take his anger out on his father, Wu Weizhong, but he wouldn't give Manager Hong a good look now.
"What do you want from me?" Wu Shigong asked stiffly.
But Manager Hong seemed to be unaware of Wu Shigong's displeasure. He still said with a smile: "The Marquis has made an appointment for the Fourteenth Young Master, and he wants to choose an auspicious day for the Young Master to get married. The young lady who is engaged is..."
"Bah!" Wu Shigong immediately became furious and re-filmed the big case. Then he shouted: "Here comes someone!"
A group of soldiers rushed in from outside the tent.
Wu Shigong pointed at Manager Hong, who was still not aware of his condition, and loudly ordered: "Throw him out and tell him to go back to where he came from!" The soldiers immediately swarmed up and grabbed Manager Hong's limbs, and pulled him away.
The steward carried him out, leaving only Steward Hong explaining and begging for mercy.
Are you kidding me? Now that Wu Shigong's scalp is about to explode with all the troubles, his unscrupulous father wants to find a match for him? Don't you think it's adding to the trouble? If not for his father's sake.
Come on, instead of throwing him out today, at least he will break both of Manager Hong's legs.
…
Half an hour later, Zhou Junwu walked into the big tent. When he saw that Wu Shigong had regained his composure, he smiled and reported: "Sir! The student has settled the people in your house and declined the marriage. Tomorrow we will be together."
Let them return. But...don't you want to hear about this marriage? That young lady sounds pretty good."
Wu Shigong was immediately amused by Zhou Junwu's joke: "Side! I didn't expect you to make fun of me too. You know I don't have this intention now."
However, Wu Shigong was also quite satisfied with Zhou Junwu taking the initiative to wipe his ass for him, so he thought about it. Then he ordered: "When Manager Hong leaves tomorrow, prepare a generous gift from the camp for him to take with him.
, consider it my filial piety to my father!"
After finishing speaking, Wu Shigong thought of his unscrupulous father again, and could only shake his head and sigh.
In late January of the 15th year of Chongzhen, the Runing Army repatriated troops temporarily borrowed from other Ming armies. As expected, there were only over 700 Ming soldiers willing to stay in Zhenyuan City. In addition, there was an agreement left by Wu Shigong.
, the Runing Army now only has more than 8,000 soldiers and horses left in Zhenyuan City. The other Runing Army troops, in the name of rest and reorganization, have withdrawn to the camp south of Shanhaiguan to prepare for the attack.
In early February, Wu Shigong led the final retreat of the Runing Army back to Shanhaiguan. Afterwards, he sought out Chang Qiu for a secret discussion and gave the Chang family in Shanxi where Chang Qiu was located the exclusive right to trade with the Runing Army in Liaodong. However, Wu Shigong made a request: Chang Qiu was required to
The family gave up trade with the Manchus and Mongolia. Of course, this was also a choice given to the Chang family by Wu Shigong. If they were unwilling to give up trade with the Manchus in the future, then the Runing Army would definitely let the Chang family wait and see.
On the fifth day of February, Wu Shigong brought Chang Liuqin to the camp in Guannan. Afterwards, he sent a letter to Zhao Zhiwan, the new governor of Jiliao in the pass, and Gao Qiqian, the supervisor of the Liaodong army, informing them that the Runing army would return to Runing soon.
Upon learning of this shocking thunderbolt, Ji Liao Governor Zhao Zhiwan and Liaodong Supervisor Gao Qiqian were shocked. They immediately came to the Runing Army to prevent Wu Shigong from returning.
"Commander Wu! You have been in Liaodong for such a long time. If you have offended the Zajia family, I will apologize in advance. But you must not leave without telling me. After you leave, how can the officers and soldiers of Jinzhou escape from danger in Songshan?"
?" Gao Qiqian walked towards Wu Shigong and repeatedly raised his hands, just to make Wu Shigong give up the idea of leaving.
"Commander Wu! I know that you have always been loyal to the emperor, but why did you leave without purpose today? I don't hide it from Commander Wu. I have recommended to the emperor that you should be the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, and I will give you command arrows to shoulder your responsibility.
Responsibility for rescue. Otherwise, you can stay here for a few more days and wait for the court's decree to come out?" Zhao Zhiwan on the side also advised.
Indeed, Emperor Chongzhen and the court were quite dissatisfied with the behavior of the former Governor of Jiliao Yang Shengwu who stood still, so they changed their generals and replaced them with the new Governor of Jiliao Zhao Zhiwan. After Zhao Zhiwan came to Liaodong, he really wanted to mobilize troops for rescue.
Jinzhou, Songshan and other cities, and he was already preparing to use Wu Shigong's Runing Army as the main force for rescue.
But now, Zhao Zhiwan's dream has completely come to nothing. However, this cannot be blamed on either Zhao Zhiwan or Wu Shigong. The opportunity to fight has been lost, and any good ideas are of no use.
At this time, Wu Shigong would not be shaken by the few words of these two people. So he said to Gao Qiqian: "Eunuch Gao! I have known you for many years, and there is always some affection, so I don't want to embarrass you.
You. But look at the two cities of Liaodong, Jinzhou, and Songshan now. There is no way to save them. The morale of the army is gone, and it will be a big defeat again. And the general has built a new city next to Ningyuan, leaving thousands of people behind.
Yu Huben defended it, which can be regarded as the last bit of his strength."
"The general's Runing army is always a guest in Liaodong, and it has been nearly two years since we left Runing. Now the Shaanxi thieves are rampant in Henan and Chu. How can the general's son feel at ease? To be honest, we must
If it weren't for the general's strong hand to suppress them, they might have mutinied and returned to Runing long ago. Lord Supervisors and Lord Supervisors, please show your support. It is impossible for our Runing army to leave our hometown and fight in Liaodong for a long time without protecting our elders in our hometown.
Hey——! Let’s get together and part ways! When the generals quell the civil unrest in the Central Plains, we can go to Liaodong and fight for the two adults again!”
…
In the end, neither Ji Liao Governor Zhao Zhiwan nor Liaodong Supervisor Gao Qiqian succeeded in stopping them. However, they only tried to persuade each other with good words and did not use troops to stop them. At this time, everyone was more or less successful.
I have a feeling that the building is about to collapse, so I don't want to do it all and want to leave a way out for myself.
Emperor Chongzhen and the imperial court also remained silent on the unauthorized return of the Runing Army. Even seeing that it was a done deal, the imperial court sent a supplementary order to the Ministry of War to mobilize the Runing Army to return when the Runing Army marched to Tianjin Guard.
This can be regarded as saving some face for the court!
On February 15th, Runing's army marched to Tongzhou and began to collect ships to return through the Grand Canal. But Wu Shigong never thought that his unscrupulous father, who was still haunting him, had already brought the girl who had betrothed him there.
Tongzhou is waiting. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
