"It's a joke. If the soldiers and horses from Liaodong can come to the northwest, there won't be more than 10,000 Guanning soldiers and horses brought by Zhao Lijiao last time."
As the words fell, Zhao Yutu walked in from outside the house.
"I have met the general." After entering the room, he took the lead in bowing to Liu Heng.
Facing Zhao Yutu's greetings, Liu Heng nodded with a smile, pointed to the empty seat next to him, and said, "Find a place to do it yourself."
Zhao Yutu bowed, walked to the seat opposite Liao Wenguang and sat down.
"Senior Liao, let me introduce to you. This is Mr. Zhao from our Tiger Flag. He is currently equivalent to the chief envoy of Datong in Datong." Liu Heng introduced Liao Wenguang.
Liao Wenguang looked at Zhao Yutu.
He had heard of several important figures in the Tiger Flag, one of whom was a boy named Zhao Yutu. He guessed that the Mr. Zhao in front of him was probably Zhao Yutu.
After all, the Tiger-Character Banner occupied Xuanda University not long ago. To be able to hold such a high position as the Chief Envoy in Datong, he must be an important figure in the Tiger-Character Banner.
"Senior Liao." Zhao Yutu took the lead in raising his hand to Liao Wenguang.
Liao Wenguang also returned the courtesy and said: "Mr. Zhao came in just now and mentioned that the imperial troops in Liaodong cannot come to the northwest. I don't know why Mr. Zhao is so sure."
Although Zhao Yutu was described by Liu Heng as the chief envoy of Datong, in Liao Wenguang's eyes, Zhao Yutu was just a rebel leader who was not even a scholar. Naturally, it was impossible for him to lower his status and really call him the chief envoy.
"It's very simple. The slave thieves are powerful in Liaodong. Once Guan Ning's soldiers and horses come to Xuanda, the slave thieves will take the opportunity to seize Guanning's first line of defense in Jinzhou. At that time, the slave thieves can march south and attack the capital." Zhao Yu pictured. Lu sneered.
Liao Wenguang frowned.
He didn't expect that a rebel bandit leader would have such knowledge. Then he thought that this person had read books, so it was not difficult to understand that he had some knowledge.
He even guessed that Zhao Yutu should be Liu Heng's adviser, otherwise there are so many leaders in the Tiger Flag, but this person is the only one who can participate in the recruitment.
"The slave thieves have captured Shanhaiguan. What good will this do to you?" Liao Wenguang asked back.
Hearing this, Zhao Yutu smiled and said: "We are rebels in your eyes. Do you think it will be good for us to have slave thieves entering the customs?"
Liao Wenguang's tone choked.
Turning around, he said with a cold face: "Don't forget that you are also Han people. Do you want to watch foreigners trample on our Han territory and harm our Han people?"
"Consultant Liao is wrong. If there really is a day when slaves and traitors enter the customs, what does your court and the responsibilities of the princes in the court have to do with our tiger-character flag? The line from Shanhaiguan to Jinzhou Ningyuan, but in your In my hand." Liu Heng held the tureen with one hand and said lightly.
Liao Wenguang turned to look at Liu Heng and said: "If General Liu is willing, I can tell the court that General Liu will go to Jinzhou to serve as the commander-in-chief on the front line. I believe that General Liu and his troops will be able to put down the slave thieves and seal the throne in the future." Jue is very promising."
"It seems that you are planning to send me to Liaodong to serve as the commander-in-chief. The Jiangnan mentioned in many previous words is just an excuse. It is really a good move." Liu Heng snorted coldly and put down the tureen in his hand. on the table.
Zhao Yutu, who was sitting opposite Liao Wenguang, said sarcastically: "You can't defeat the slave thieves, but you want us to go to Liaodong to fight the slave thieves for you. Hehe, I really look up to you."
"Huh, nonsense. Now that Governor Sun is in charge of Liaodong, the slave thieves are never allowed to invade. Not long ago, the defenders in Jinzhou City defeated an army of 100,000 slave thieves." Liao Wenguang defended in an excited tone.
After hearing this, Zhao Yutu immediately asked: "Let's not talk about how much money your court spends every year to maintain the situation on the front line in Jinzhou. Let's talk about your defeat of an army of 100,000 slave thieves. Counselor Liao, tell me, you killed How many slaves and thieves were killed? How many slaves and thieves were captured? How much lost territory was recovered? Not to mention the distance, has Guangning been recovered?"
A series of questions made Liao Wenguang look increasingly embarrassed.
This battle was regarded as a great victory in Jinzhou by the imperial court. Although the invading army of slaves and bandits was repelled, the number of enemies killed was less than a hundred, and there were no prisoners. Rather than being repelled by the defenders, it was better to say that the slaves retreated on their own. more appropriate.
The imperial court had faced slave thieves for so many years, and had almost never had a big victory. This time, it successfully blocked the army of 100,000 slave thieves outside Jinzhou City. Everyone in the court celebrated this hard-won victory.
"You can't tell me!" Zhao Yutu snorted, and then said, "You said that the defenders of Jinzhou City defeated an army of 100,000 slaves and thieves, but it was just a fig leaf to cover up your incompetence. Although the army of slaves and thieves did not capture Jinzhou City, But they retreated unscathed, there is no such thing as a major defeat."
Liao Wenguang's face turned blue with embarrassment.
In any case, he did not expect that many people in the court were not aware of these things, but the rebels in Xuanda knew everything about Liaodong.
"Counsellor Liao, my conditions have been stated. If you can't make the decision, then go back and find someone who can make the decision." Liu Heng picked up the tureen and used the lid to stir the tea in the cup.
"General Liu, it is impossible for the court to agree to your request. The Ming Dynasty has never ceded territory." Liao Wenguang said excitedly.
Liu Heng blew on the hot air in the cup and said: "If you don't agree, you can send troops to announce the victory. I will hold the tiger-character flag. Zhao Wu will see off the guests."
After saying that, he put down the bowl in his hand, stood up, and walked out of the house.
"Senior Liao, please!" Zhao Wu walked up to Liao Wenguang and raised his hand to make a gesture to please leave.
Liao Wenguang stood up from his seat, looked at Liu Heng's back as he was about to walk to the door, and said loudly: "General Liu, as long as you are willing to go to Liaodong and regain the lost land in Liaodong for the imperial court, you will definitely be granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister in the future. Why bother doing so in Xuanda?" A rebellious minister always has to worry about being surrounded and suppressed by the imperial army."
Liu Heng walked out of the house without looking back.
Zhao Yutu, who was sitting opposite Liao Wenguang, stood up at this time, looked at Liao Wenguang and said: "Counsellor Liao, I think you should go back. If you continue to stay, no one will care about your food. Why don't you go back early and discuss with the people behind you whether you want to or not?" Agree to our terms.”
"Mr. Zhao, you are also a scholar. You should understand what loyalty to the emperor and patriotism means. I hope you can persuade General Liu to turn back early and not go further down the wrong path." Liao Wenguang saw that he could not persuade Liu Heng, so he continued I want to persuade Zhao Yutu as a scholar.
Zhao Yutu shook his head with a chuckle and walked out.
When he was about to reach the door, he turned around and said to Zhao Wu: "The general town office is an important military location, and it is not suitable for outsiders to stay for too long."
After saying that, he walked out the door and left directly.
"Counsellor Liao, you heard it too, please, don't force me to do anything, it will make my face look bad." Zhao Wu said threateningly.
Liao Wenguang, who was kicked out, shook his sleeves and robe angrily, but he could only leave.
