Four hundred and thirtieth chapters urgent report

Zhong Jinwei knew that something big must have happened, so he would send such an unreasonable edict to him.

He immediately did not dare to neglect and rushed to the Forbidden City despite the pain in his back.

Sure enough, when he entered the Wenhua Hall, he found that all the cabinet ministers and the six ministers were there. And all of them had serious faces. When he saw Zhong Jinwei entering the hall, they just nodded slightly.

Normally, after yesterday's wedding, I would at least say hello and congratulations.

Zhong Jinwei was thinking about what would happen at this time, but he really couldn't remember what happened in history.

Emperor Chongzhen stopped Zhong Jinwei's salute and introduced him first: "Master Zhong, there is an urgent report from the front line, so I have to send you here."

When Zhong Jinwei heard this, he immediately thought of the battle against the prisoners, but the Battle of Daling River seemed to have happened in 1631. He had not heard of any action on Sun Chengzong's side, so he couldn't figure out what it was, so he hurriedly

Asked: "Your Majesty, why are you reporting so urgently?"

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen turned to his first assistant, Wen Tiren, and said, "Send the urgent report to Master Zhong."

So Wen Tiren handed the urgent report to Zhong Jinwei after it was turned around and returned to his hand.

Everyone in the Wenhua Hall looked at Zhong Jinwei, waiting for what suggestions he would have after reading it.

In the war against the captives, no one achieved the glory of Zhong Jinwei. Naturally, his opinions played a decisive role in the war against the captives.

But in the minds of Emperor Chongzhen and Wen Tiren, there was another meaning. They knew that Zhong Jinwei came from later generations, so they wanted to know the specific situation from him.

Because the emergency report from Sun Chengzong only said that Jinzhou was surrounded by tens of thousands of Tatars at night, including about 20,000 Mongolian Tatars. With so many accomplices dispatched, it was unknown that Jianlu was launching a war this time.

How big the scale is and what its purpose is are only described in the emergency report without being clearly stated.

Because there was no bottom line, it was difficult to gauge whether Emperor Chongzhen would meet Sun Chengzong's request in the emergency report. After all, long-distance dispatch of reinforcements would cost a lot of money and food.

Zhong Jinwei now has no difficulty in reading the traditional Chinese characters, and punctuation marks have been forcibly popularized in important official documents, so he quickly read the emergency report without any problems.

After reading it, his face became serious. He raised his head and said back to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the reinforcements sent by Mr. Sun will be defeated, and I am afraid they will not achieve much of a containment effect. I believe that Mr. Sun's request must be implemented as soon as possible.

Just be satisfied.”

When Liang Tingdong, the Minister of War, heard this, he was a little curious about why Zhongxing Hou was so sure. He questioned: "Zhongxing Hou, why are you so sure that the reinforcements will be defeated?"

Others also had this question. When Liang Tingdong asked, they all looked at Zhong Jinwei, waiting for his answer.

Zhong Jinwei turned around and looked at Liang Tingdong and said: "Because I know something about the reinforcement general, this person is as timid as a mouse and has no intention of fighting against the prisoners. I'm afraid that if the soldiers put a little pressure on him, they will flee back to Ningyuan or run away directly."

It’s not necessarily possible to go back to Shanhaiguan.”

After hearing this, Wen Tiren frowned and asked Zhong Jinwei: "Marquis Zhongxing, do you mean Wu Xiang or Song Wei?"

Sun Chengzong sent Wu Xiang and Song Wei with 6,000 troops to rescue Jinzhou. He did not ask them to defeat the Jianlu, but only asked them to contain the Jianlu and let Jinzhou City know that the imperial court would send troops to rescue them and that they were not fighting alone.

.

Zhong Jinwei didn't know what happened to Song Wei. But Wu Xiang was a famous runaway general, and he also had a son who was a traitor, Wu Sangui. Therefore, Zhong Jinwei had an impression of Wu Xiang.

"Wu Xiang." Zhong Jinwei answered directly without any scruples. Generally speaking, when generals of the Ming army encounter Jianlu who are stronger than themselves, they will basically choose to run away, let alone a famous general who ran away!

"Wu Xiang is as timid as a mouse? He was a martial arts scholar, and he is related by marriage to the Zu Zongbing who was besieged in Jinzhou. Is this impossible?" Liang Tingdong didn't believe it.

However, Emperor Chongzhen and Wen Tiren believed that Zhong Jinwei had not had any contact with Wu Xiang beforehand, so they came to such a straightforward conclusion. Obviously, Wu Xiang was famous in history for this aspect.

Emperor Chongzhen immediately said: "In this case, I agree with Master Sun's request!"

His words had an affirmative tone, indicating that he had made a decision in his heart. But in terms of form, since it was a meeting to discuss, it was natural to seek the opinions of the ministers.

"I second the proposal." Zhong Jinwei bowed in agreement.

"I second the proposal." Wen Tiren agreed immediately.

When the other ministers heard this, Emperor Chongzhen, Marquis Zhongxing and the first assistant all agreed, and they no longer had any objections.

Only Bi Ziyan, the Minister of Household Affairs, complained slightly. With the war, money and food were flowing out like water again.

Emperor Chongzhen saw that none of the ministers had any objections, so he ordered: "It is said that Qin Liangyu, the commander-in-chief of Shizhu, has an audience."

Qin Liangyu was training the fifth military camp in the capital camp, which was not far from the Forbidden City. Hearing the urgent edict, he immediately rushed over.

"Qin Liangyu, the commander-in-chief of Shizhu, bows to Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live." Qin Liangyu, a hero among women, pushed the golden mountain, toppled the jade pillar, and knelt down to salute.

"Qin Qing, please get up quickly." Emperor Chongzhen ordered while holding his temper.

After all, not many people can be treated like the Marquis of Zhongxing. Qin Liangyu is still a military commander, so under the gaze of these ministers, there is no lack of etiquette. This is because Emperor Chongzhen is doing Qin Liangyu's favor, otherwise there will be a lot of chattering ministers.

Few things.

Qin Liangyu looked at the situation in the palace and knew that something important was happening, so after standing still, he raised his head and looked at Emperor Chongzhen.

"Qin Qing, how is the training of the fifth military camp?" Emperor Chongzhen asked.

This question was relatively vague and not easy to answer. Qin Liangyu thought for a while before replying, "Your Majesty, the Fifth Army Camp at this time is one of the stronger ones compared to the border troops. Even if they encounter Jianlu, they can still fight against them."

Heart."

The Fifth Military Battalion was originally selected from the meritorious soldiers of King Qin's army. Coupled with the military discipline training during this period, it was not surprising that everyone could achieve this result.

However, hearing these comments from the battle-hardened Qin Liangyu was more authoritative and reassuring.

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said: "That's very good. Now there is something that requires Qin Qing to lead your white pole army."

"Your Majesty, but the Liaodong Jianlu invaders have invaded again?" Qin Liangyu raised his eyebrows and asked Emperor Chongzhen.

She had already made some guesses just now and felt that this should be the reason.

Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said: "The Jianlu and the Mongolian tribesmen are trapped in Jinzhou. We don't know the scale of the war at the moment. Commander Sun has sent some troops to investigate and contain them, and will then prepare to organize a large army for rescue. I have specifically requested an explanation from me."

The pole army is going."

When Qin Liangyu heard this, he replied without saying a word: "I obey the order."

It was as if she had just received an ordinary mission, and what she faced was not the prestigious Jianlu, but just a bunch of chickens and dogs.

Qin Liangyu's answer was crisp and clear, which made Emperor Chongzhen nod with satisfaction. He turned to Bi Ziyan, the Minister of Household Affairs, and said: "Bi Qing, you will give Qin Qing enough military pay and food today. The military situation is urgent, and the White Army will have to set off tomorrow."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Bi Ziyan accepted the order.

Everyone thought that the matter was settled like this, but an urgent report came immediately, overturning this response.
