Early the next morning, Yang Fan got up on time and stretched out.
I didn't sleep well last night. I always feel a little crazy. I stayed up most of the night and yelled, disturbing my dreams. Really annoying.
As for what happened last night, Yang Fan didn't intend to ask about it.
The opportunity has been given to you. Whether you can seize it or not depends on your ability.
If you bring 20,000 people here, you won't be able to win over the business group. That means you are a piece of shit.
Waste is not worthy of sympathy. Adults only screen, not change.
If you can't do it, move aside quickly.
When Yang Fan was sitting at the breakfast table, Zhang Shize reluctantly opened the door of the tent and walked in. Yang Fan is already addicted to the breakfast here. He couldn't eat the food cooked by the cook in the military camp.
Zhang Shize was not polite and first brought over a basket of steaming soup dumplings. Let the orderly serve a bowl of raw beef porridge. Here are four more pickles. Xili started eating loudly.
Yang Fan took a look and saw that this guy obviously didn't sleep well either. I have two dark circles under my eyes.
It was really noisy last night.
"Damn it, these bastards have been causing trouble all night. I couldn't sleep well all night." Zhang Shize carefully took a small bite of the bun with his mouth, sucked out the hot soup, and blew out the hot soup. , while complaining.
"Me too, it makes me feel uncomfortable when I wake up in the morning." Yang Fan said helplessly.
"Just watch them fight. If a few third- and fourth-grade ones die, we will also have to suffer."
Yang Fan took a sip of preserved egg and lean meat porridge and put down the spoon. Said: "Those old men, who have matured with age, will not make it difficult for us. They will not touch those people sent by the emperor. Last night, it seemed that the fight was lively. In fact, the deaths were caused by the secrets of both parties. manpower."
Zhang Shize said: "These two groups of people are bastards. They came with so many people behind our backs. This time the civilians sent from Shanxi to conquer 13 counties, with more than 18,000 people. They came from South Zhili There are 20,000 people. Do they think this is a place where villagers fight with each other?"
Yang Fan finished the porridge, put down the bowl, wiped his mouth, and took a sip of boiled water. Said: "Actually, have you ever thought about it, it is a good thing that Zhangjiakou was razed. Whether it is Shanxi merchants or Donglin, we cannot trust it. Zhangjiakou Fort is an important node in our logistics line. Hand over this place We don’t trust anyone.”
"Yes, the power of these business groups is too great, and there is some confusion between them and Jiannu. To be honest, I have been worried about this place. This time we go on an expedition, and the soldiers are in danger. If something happens later, Problem, but it’s over.”
"So, it's best to let them expose themselves, and we can see clearly who among the civilians have sneaked in. Since they are so capable of fighting, let's give them a chance on the battlefield and let them have a good fight with the Tumuts. Fight. Otherwise, such an elite manpower would be in vain."
Zhang Shize raised his thumb and said: "If you want to talk about evil, I will obey you even if you don't support the wall. Okay, 40,000 people. We have the cannon fodder for the siege. The Beijing camp should die less, and I can explain to His Majesty when I go back. He only has this little capital, and if the loss is too big, he is a man who wants to save face and will not say anything, but he will definitely hold a grudge in his heart."
Yang Fan smiled and asked himself to take care of it. Zhang Shize was simply an Internet otaku from later generations, spouting all kinds of trendy words.
Among the 100,000 civilians, 40,000 actually sneaked in. No one knew what they were going to do except themselves. This is a big hidden danger.
They have to be separated out and looked at along the way. When you get to the battlefield, first consume these things with ulterior motives. Otherwise, Yang Fan would not be able to sleep well.
Zhang Shize and Yang Fan looked at each other, they both had this plan in mind.
Neither the Jin Party nor Donglin can be trusted. They all have conflicts of interest with Xun Gui. If they didn't have some conspiracy, how could they have so many people mixing in the ranks of civilian husbands.
Yang Fan did it on purpose this time.
I just want to try it out and see how deep the water is in Minfu. After all, all the baggage was transported by the civilian husband. I don’t have a clear idea of the situation over there, but I don’t feel reassured.
It is a thousand miles from the capital to Guihua City. Any discrepancy in the intermediate transportation line will be fatal. Yang Fan knew something about Donglin's thoughts. They just wanted to take over the military power. If you can't get it back, destroy it.
How did the Jingkang Incident in the Northern Song Dynasty come about? How the Western Army was wiped out by the Jin soldiers. It was someone in the imperial court who was causing trouble and kept leaking top-secret military information to the Jin people.
Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji of the Ming Dynasty conquered Jiaozhi and failed miserably. Someone also tipped off the people of Jiaozhi.
Yang Fan can trust them, trust a ghost.
The emperor just wanted to prevent Yang Fan's family from becoming the dominant one, and wanted to check and balance Yang Fan. I didn't expect that these grandsons were all evil-minded. They can do anything.
They were even happier when the whole army in the Beijing camp was wiped out. An elite army in the hands of the emperor was the last thing they wanted to see. The emperor became a tiger with its teeth pulled out and could only rely on their money, food and army, which was what they wanted.
The more important reason is that Yang Fan knows that this winter, Jiannu will break through the Great Wall and enter the pass. At this time, the business group placed more than 18,000 people among the people. What do they want to do? The two families have been colluding for a long time. And it's deep.
Do they also hope that Jingying has gone to Hetao and will not come back?
After all, Beijing camp also poses a great threat to Huang Taiji.
This is also one of the reasons why Yang Fan is disappointed with Chongzhen. The layout is really not good. Penny wise and pound-foolish. If it were an official of Yang Fan's level, it would be okay without a big picture, but Chongzhen would definitely not be able to do it without a big picture. Because he holds a country in his hands. The fate of twenty million people.
Donglin and the business group each have their own plans and different purposes. However, they are definitely not here to help Yang Fan. They definitely don't mean that well.
Yang Fan and Zhang Shize started plotting at the dinner table, how to deal with these 40,000 guys of unknown origin. No matter what their purpose is. In short, just don’t waste human resources.
At six o'clock in the morning, Yang Fan beat drums to gather the generals and announced that a regiment of 3,600 people would be left to guard Zhangjiakou Fort. The rest of the army continued to march.
Yang Fan has finished making arrangements for the expedition. The heads of the business group came to ask for an audience.
"You stay and rebuild the shop. Well, I will support this. If you need anything, just ask. I will let the remaining group cooperate with you."
Send away the old men of the business group. The censor and civil servants also came.
"What, many of you are sick. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll ask the military doctor to take a good look at you."
"Recuperate for a few days, it's easy to talk, it's easy to talk. Leave three thousand civilians behind. Well, well, there are so many of you and we really need some manpower. When you are almost recovered, take the civilians and rush to Guihua City as soon as possible to meet up."
When Yang Fan opened his eyes and told lies to them, Zhang Shize looked up at the sky.
It's so blue today. The wind and snow have stopped, the temperature has warmed up, and it's even a bit civilized. We had to set off quickly, because it would be difficult to keep going until the ice and snow melted, and there would be mud and water all the way.
