Even if Qingshui Mingyue Pass could be recaptured, it would be very difficult for the current number of troops to withstand the attack of more than 7,000 Jianlu who jumped over the wall. They did not want Zhong Jinwei to take risks.
Zhong Jinwei understood that they were worried about his own safety, but he did not accept it and asked them: "I know your good intentions, but do you think it is safe to ask for help from the main force in Luanzhou?"
Zhong Jinwei did not wait for their answer, and said directly: "The people of Yongping are likely to be massacred by the Jianlu. Even if the city is not massacred, the Jianlu will probably escape immediately. Therefore, in order to buy time, we must not avoid Yongping and make a big circle."
Go back and ask for help. With my riding skills as a three-legged cat, if I am discovered by Jianlu when approaching Yongping, do you think I can escape?"
Seeing what Yan Yingyuan wanted to say, he pressed down with his hand to stop his brother-in-law from speaking, and then said: "Whether it's because of my own beauty or not, I should be considered a celebrity in front of the emperor! If I go to Qingshui Mingyue Pass,
The Ming troops around me will always be more attentive than I would be if I were not at Qingshui Mingyue Pass. Whether they do it for me or for the emperor, they will work hard to reinforce Qingshui Mingyue Pass. Otherwise, with the speed of those Ming troops, these civilians will
Zhuang, it’s hard to say whether he can stop the anxious Jianlu and hold on until reinforcements arrive.”
Zhong Jinwei also felt that it was hard to say how the battle at Qingshui Mingyue Pass would go. He thought that if he and Yan Yingyuan failed, the Archi family would have a hard time. So he immediately said: "Brother-in-law, your riding skills are superb.
, it’s up to you to lead people to ask for help from Master Sun. If you report the message, Master Sun will definitely believe it.”
Unexpectedly, Yan Yingyuan shook his head and refused: "I don't trust you. You want me to go back. If something happens, I'm sorry to Archie."
Seeing that Zhong Jinwei still wanted to persuade him, he emphasized his tone and said resolutely: "No matter what you say, it's useless. I must see that you are fine, unless I die!"
Seeing how determined Yan Yingyuan was, Zhong Jinwei finally gave up his persuasion.
Men all have their own persistence. If Yan Yingyuan is like this, why not himself? [
He turned his attention to several others, but did not consider his own bodyguards. Originally, his bodyguards were also an option, but he would have tasks for them to do later, so they were not considered for the task of delivering a letter to Sun Chengzong.
.
In fact, Zhong Jinwei didn't have much choice. He said to Zhang Fengyi: "General Zhang, the task of delivering the letter to Mr. Sun will be left to you. Please be sure to send the letter to Mr. Sun as soon as possible and ask him to send troops to Yongping quickly. If you can't
Let those bastards run away."
Zhang Fengyi took a brief look at the people present. From her heart, she would rather fight Jianlu head-on than just run errands, even if this errand task is also very important.
But apart from her, the only one present was Lu Xiangsheng. He was the leader of the Eight Hundred Minzhuang in the fight against Jianlu, so he was obviously not suitable to go on errands.
Therefore, Zhang Fengyi had no choice but to clasp her fists and accept the order: "General, I will deliver the letter to Master Sun as soon as possible."
"Okay, without further ado, you're going to leave immediately." After Zhong Jinwei finished speaking, he immediately took the pen and paper from the guard, wrote a hastily letter and handed it to Zhang Fengyi.
Zhang Fengyi took the letter and looked at the group of men in front of her. In order to bring the Jianlu who had harmed the people to justice, she was not afraid of Jianlu's bad reputation. She completely ignored matters of life and death and tried her best to fight against the seven hundred people with eight hundred people's strength.
The courage of Qianduo Jianlu was something she had never seen before.
She saluted them with an extremely serious military salute, then called to the rest of the white-poled cavalry, got on their horses, and roared away.
After Zhong Jinwei watched Zhang Fengyi go away, he turned around and ordered the guard standing behind him: "Gu Baichuan, Li Laosi."
"My subordinates are here." As soon as Gu Baichuan and Li Laosi heard Marquis Zhongxing greeting them, they quickly stepped forward and answered with clasped fists.
"The army is about to go to Qingshui Mingyue Pass to stop the Jianlu. The outcome is hard to say. I am still thinking about a few people. You must clarify their affairs for me. If I live, I will go to you. If I
If there is an accident, report it to the emperor." Zhong Jinwei explained seriously.
"yes."
"Yu Haijing." Zhong Jinwei nodded at Yu Haijing again.
"The guilty people are here."
"Before the army sets off, tell Gu Baichuan and Li Laosi about Fan Yongdou's situation. You can tell them as much as you want. By the way, there are other traitors. I remember the eight most famous traitors. Do you know other traitors?
If you are a traitor, let them know as well."[
Yu Haijing was stunned when she heard this. She didn't expect this to be the case. From what Zhongxing Hou said, he seemed to know a lot of things himself, so why didn't he deal with it as soon as possible? Now let me talk about this matter. Time is too tight and I'm afraid I won't be able to talk about it.
How much content.
"Yu Haijing, did you hear that?" Zhong Jinwei asked again without hearing Yu Haijing's answer.
"Yes, the criminal will try his best to explain in detail. But Lord Marquis, I will send two of them to avoid going back." Yu Haijing came back to her senses and quickly replied.
"Huh?" Zhong Jinwei didn't understand what Yu Haijing meant.
"Master Hou, not only are merchants big and small involved in the business of smuggling Mongolian and Jianlu captives, but the Ming Dynasty's border has been corrupted. The reason why they can transport military supplies and grain to the Jianlu captives on a large scale is because the border army generals took advantage of it and allowed it to go through." Yu Hai
Jing explained.
"You're right, I think it's simple. The size of this interest group is beyond imagination. Gu Baichuan, Li Laosi, you two take all the guards away and remember to protect yourself." Zhong Jinwei listened.
After Yu Haijing's explanation, she immediately understood and spoke to several people respectively.
"Master Marquis, you also need someone to protect you. To find out about those traitors, Lao Si and I are enough." When Gu Baichuan heard that Zhong Jinwei wanted to take all the guards away, he immediately advised him.
"Your skills are not on the battlefield to begin with. Secret investigation is your specialty. I am on the battlefield, and I am being taken care of by my brother-in-law. I also have the brave and powerful Magistrate Lu here, so it's okay." Zhong Jinwei saw that Gu Baichuan was concerned about his own safety, so he asked Zhong Jinwei
Explained his reason to him.
Lu Xiangsheng felt a little embarrassed when he listened to Zhong Jinwei praising him as a civil servant with a jinshi background for being a brave enemy.
After listening to Zhong Jinwei's words, Yan Yingyuan turned his head slightly and looked at Lu Xiangsheng. From the beginning, he recognized Lu Xiangsheng's military bravery to his brother-in-law.
Gu Baichuan still felt something was wrong, and said again: "Factory Gong." Before he could finish speaking, Zhong Jinwei interrupted impatiently: "Don't worry about the factory Gong or not. If the Wang Gonggong is here, he won't treat me."
I have opinions on the arrangements.”
At this point, Zhong Jinwei felt that what he just said was a bit inappropriate, so he changed his statement and continued: "As far as I know, compared to Hai Jing, those traitors are truly heinous things. Every time Jianlu harms a common people, this
Among them is their contribution. Under their wealth are piles of bones of hundreds of people in our Ming Dynasty. They must be brought to justice. In addition, you should not underestimate them. In their sphere of influence
Inside, you should treat it as if you have arrived at Jianlu's territory, and you must be careful every step of the way. The difficulty of doing things on your side is no less difficult than ours to stop Jianlu."
When Gu Baichuan saw that Zhong Jinwei had spoken for this reason, he stopped arguing and accepted the order with cupped fists: "Yes, Lord Marquis."
Seeing that Gu Baichuan had accepted the order, Zhong Jinwei turned to Yu Haijing and said: "As the saying goes, a prodigal son returns with gold. Although you did a lot of bad things and harmed a lot of people under orders, the military information you provided several times also saved a lot of people."
People, including me. Now it is up to you to stop the Jianlu and avenge the people who died in vain in the Ming Dynasty. I will tell the emperor the cause and effect, and ask the emperor to pardon you and let you continue to serve the Ming Dynasty."
Although Yu Haijing regretted the sins he had committed, he cherished his life no matter what.
Although he estimated that Zhong Jinwei would spare him, he still felt a little uneasy in his heart before getting confirmation.
But now Zhong Jinwei's words reassured him. He even listened to Zhong Jinwei's wishes and could be an official of the Ming Dynasty according to Liu Aita's routine, which made him even more happy.
Although the emperor has not yet agreed, it is impossible for the emperor to disagree with the words of Marquis Zhongxing. This is a certainty.
At that moment, he knelt down to Zhong Jinwei, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Marquis, for showing mercy. The guilty people must die to repay the country."
"No need to be polite, just pick up the important things and tell Gu Baichuan as soon as possible."
After Zhong Jinwei finished speaking, he turned to Lu Xiangsheng and said: "Jiutai, call all the soldiers over, I have something to say."
