Zhou Zheng sat on the chair, greeted Jin Guoqi to sit down, and said, "You are right. What we have to do is to keep delaying time according to the enemy's strength. Time is on our side."
Jin Guoqi sat down on Zhou Zheng's left hand, looked at Zhou Zheng, and said happily: "My lord, what you said is. Your lord, this time you pacified the northwest is an unworldly achievement. Are there other rewards?"
Zhou Zheng's award has not yet come down, but it is rumored that he will add titles, such as the prince and Taifu, and then various rewards. There is no actual change in the official position.
Zhou Zheng’s voice for entering the cabinet was very high, but the voice of impeachment was not small. At least in the next six months, Zhou Zheng felt that he did not want to enter the cabinet.
Zhou Zheng looked at Jin Guoqi and said with a smile: "Did you blame me for not taking you to the northwest to suppress bandits?"
Jin Guoqi hurriedly laughed and said, "My lord is joking, there are so many people in the northwest, Liaodong also needs someone to guard, and the general will just ask casually."
Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "You won't move here for the time being. I will rush to Jinzhou overnight tonight. There is nothing wrong with Yang Guozhu, right?"
Yang Guozhu's transfer to the Jinzhou General Soldier was recommended by Cao Wenzhao. This man had very good abilities and conduct, but Zhou Zheng had never dealt with him.
Jin Guoqi thought for a while, and said, "My lord, Chief Yang is very strict in governing the army, and the governor Fang is anti-corruption. There are problems everywhere, but his problem is not big."
Zhou Zheng thought and said, "Okay, I'll see you."
Jin Guoqi actually wanted to chat with Zhou Zhengduo. He had been with him in rebellion in Shandong and had friendship. If he can be appreciated by this Shangshu master, he will have a bright future!
Zhou Zheng rushed to Jinzhou overnight, the governor of Liaodong Fang Yizao, and Jinzhou General Soldier Yang Guozhu all looked at Youtun.
When Ouyang Sheng was in charge of Liaodong, he did not move much northward. He built a few garrisons and was vulnerable. As soon as the captives were built, the army retreated, and some were in Youtun and some were directly south of Daling River , Hiding in Jinzhou City.
When Zhou Zheng arrived in Jinzhou, Fang Yizao, Yang Guozhu was naturally overjoyed. With the backbone, he was less worried.
Zhou Zheng was greeted into Jinzhou City, and Fang Yizao eagerly reported the recent events to Zhou Zheng.
"My lord, Jianlu was a little strange this time, the encirclement was loose, and there was no attack, but he kept persuading him to surrender..." Fang Yizao was a civil official and was a little unstable.
Zhou Zheng sat down first in the mansion and said, "What did Li Weiluan say?"
Guarding Youtun was the deputy commander, Li Weiluan, who was originally Huanglong's deputy.
Yang Guozhu answered, "My lord, Li Weiluan said, Jianlu's persuasion to surrender... a bit weak, a bit strange, and it doesn't seem to care that much."
Zhou Zheng took the tea from the soldier and turned to look at Chu Jin.
Chu Jin raised his hand and said: "My lord, Jianlu came out this time, and brought two Baylors from Horqin. With the cold of Liaodong, there is no harvest. They won't just come to scare us and go back. ."
Zhou Zheng took a sip of tea and said, "Does Huang Taiji have any other actions?"
Chu Jin said, "No, there is almost no movement in Jianluo's big tent, and the main force of Jianluo hasn't moved."
Zhou Zheng held the teacup, and then he thought, "I have ordered He Kegang from Dongjiang Town, Huang Long to lead his army northward to contain Jianli, and Jianli will receive news soon. Yang Zongbing, you lead an army of twenty thousand and go to Da Linghe, make a rescue gesture."
Fang Yizao didn't quite understand Zhou Zheng's intentions when he listened to Zhou Zheng's words, but he also knew that he didn't know the soldiers, so he looked at Yang Guozhu.
Yang Guozhu was faintly dating, and tentatively said: "My lord means that he wants to win without fighting and force him to retreat?"
Since Zhou Zheng led the army, he has fought a total of four wars without a single defeat. The most important thing is that he led hundreds of thousands of troops to wipe out the Northwest chaos that the court has not solved for more than ten years. He has unprecedented prestige and confidence in front of him. There are not many people, especially the warriors.
Zhou Zheng shook his head slightly and said, "Huang Taiji will not retreat so easily. I want to test it."
Yang Guozhu understood right now and stood up and said, "The last general will take his orders!"
Fang Yizao also nodded slightly. Zhou Zheng came, his pressure was greatly reduced, and he smiled and said to Zhou Zheng: "My lord has been all the way, and I must have worked hard. I have prepared for the next official, and I can have a banquet after I have a rest. ."
Zhou Zheng also wanted to meet many generals in Liaodong, and said, "Well, go."
Fang Yizao was relieved to see that Zhou Zheng had no arrogance, and quickly went out to prepare.
When Chu Jin and others left, they said: "My lord, there is news from Jianlu that Jianlu seems to be very interested in adults and has been collecting information about adults, and I don't know what he intends to do."
Zhou Zheng picked up the teacup and said, "Wait and see."
Chu Jin stopped talking.
Zhou Zheng was drinking tea, thinking about Huang Taiji's purpose of sending troops this time.
Is it really just anger that the Ming Dynasty tore up the agreement of the peace talks, turned into anger, and sent troops out of reason to attack
Zhou Zheng's movements were very big, without any hidden meaning. The sense of temptation was very obvious, and Huang Taiji's big account would soon be known.
In the big tent, Huang Taiji, Fan Wenchen, Ji'erhalang, Shuo Tuo and others were all present, listening to the report of the scout, each of them looked different.
When Shuo Tuo heard the change of the Ming army in Dongjiang Town, he couldn't help but panicked: "Khan, let's return to the army, the capital is very empty..."
Fan Wenchen, Ji'erhalang and others looked as usual, just glanced at Shuo Tuo, and did not speak.
Huang Taiji smiled and said, "Don't worry, Zhou Zhengyun, I really want to meet him."
Shuo Tuo hesitated to speak, and looked at Ji Er Harang, hoping that he would persuade Huang Taiji.
Jierhalang looked like an iceberg, as if he hadn't seen Shuotuo's gaze.
Fan Wenchen said: "Your Majesty, how is it going to happen?"
Huang Taiji has officially ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.
Huang Taiji smiled calmly and said: "Mr. Worrying, take a trip to Jinzhou."
Fan Wenchen didn't know Huang Taiji's thoughts yet, and said calmly: "Your Majesty just give me your orders."
Huang Taiji nodded, looked at Ji'erhalang and the others, and said, "Don't worry about the others. The Ming Dynasty has no ability to quell Liao. Zhou Zhengyun knows very well that he will not mess around."
Jierhalang and others responded, but did not panic.
They had a consensus early in the Qing Dynasty that the Ming Dynasty hadn't been able to quell Liao, and it was nothing more than a bluff.
The day after Zhou Zheng arrived in Jinzhou, he received Huang Taiji's autograph letter, all in Chinese.
Zhou Zheng read this letter for a while, and then handed it to Fang Yizao.
Fang Yizao took a look at it for a while, and pondered: "My lord, Huang Taiji wants to send Fan Wenchen to discuss the two countries' military disaster? What does this mean?"
Zhou Zheng said lightly: "When Fan Wenchen arrives, I will know what medicine they sell in the gourd."
Fang Yizao thought for a while, and said, "My lord, the court is urging the adults to send troops. If the prosecutors know that the adults and the prisoners still have discussions, I'm afraid they won't give up easily."
Zhou Zheng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I have my own measures."
Fang Yizao didn't persuade him any more, and said, "What about Chief Yang?"
Zhou Zheng said: "Dongjiang Town continues to move north, bring back everything that can be brought back to me, and it will be destroyed if not, divided into dozens of routes, and guerrilla operations. Yang Guozhu will not move and keep his eyes on the prisoners.
Fang Yizao did not know the military affairs, so he could only nod his head when he listened. (End of this chapter)
