The matter of setting an ambush for the Yinliang thief has been decided.
Ask Sun Shangwen to write a letter and send the Sun family to Liangrong. The general content is that Sun Shangwen can invite Ma Rujing to the Sun family for a banquet. On the way back to the city, he passes by the mountains and forests of the border city and lets the Liang thieves hide in the mountains and forests in advance.
Ambush the commander-in-chief of the border army.
Ma Rujing called Chu Qing into the main hall and rarely asked the latter's opinion.
It can be seen that Lao Ma no longer excludes Chu Qing from participating in "important military matters", and unknowingly, Chu Qing also has the right to speak.
"Very good, this plan works."
After hearing this, Chu Qing thought for a while and then said: "But to be on the safe side, let's add more details. This matter cannot be rushed. Sun Shangwen's impression on Liang Thief should be that he is extremely greedy, so in the letter
, don’t talk about the conditions, let Liang Zei promise, no, to give the Sun family some benefits in advance, such as how much leather goods, how much medicinal materials, it would be better if you have cash, give the benefits first, and then talk about the date of the ambush. After giving them, Sun Shangwen
Someone will be sent to lead the way."
"Good." Yang Baobei nodded repeatedly: "What did I say? This person who has read the book has a bad heart... He is very clever. Hahaha, you can win the trust of the cold thieves with one arrow. Let's trick them.
It can also take advantage of it."
Ma Rujing nodded slightly: "It coincides with my commander-in-chief."
No one in the room paid any attention to him.
Since Chu Qing came to the border, the prestige of Ma Rujing, the commander-in-chief of the border army, has been steadily declining.
In the end, everyone felt that Chu Qing had to do this kind of underhanded thing, and unanimously agreed that Chu Qing should take the lead, letting Sun Shangwen write how to write, set a date, design the route, etc., and then let the six battalions be the best at it.
It is enough to set up an ambush in the Ruishi camp for infantry fighting, which means that Chu Qing is the leader and Yang Baobei is the auxiliary.
After all, it was Chu Qing's two big mouths who slapped the traitor out. Seeing that everyone was putting the blame on him, Chu Qing did not refuse.
The discussion that needed to be discussed was over, but Ma Rujing and a group of generals refused to leave.
Chu Qing ran to the door and squatted down again. Seeing that it was almost noon, the group still didn't leave.
Tian Hailong rubbed his hands and walked out, looking slightly embarrassed: "Mr. Chu, the brothers came early and haven't had lunch yet. You guys are thinking, maybe..."
Chu Qing rolled his eyes fiercely: "No wonder the ink stains are still there. Stop dreaming. Let's eat naan bread and pickles for lunch."
Chu Qing's voice was very loud. After the people in the main hall heard it, no one stopped talking and walked away without saying a word.
Naan bread and pickles can be found in any camp, so why eat them here.
After a group of people left the Marshal's house, Zhang Chengxiao said angrily: "Chu Jianzheng, you are really stingy, and you don't need these few mouthfuls of wine and meat."
Xiao Yi, who was escorting everyone out, explained: "Generals, please don't misunderstand me. On weekdays, Inspector Chu also eats naan bread and pickles."
"Is this true?" Ma Rujing frowned and asked, "Why are you so frugal when you obviously don't need a few mouthfuls of food?"
"There is food and wine, but most of it has been sent to the south of the city and the southern suburbs. Mr. Chu said that Wangyuan City is too short of supplies now. Whoever works hard will eat more meat. He has nothing to do. He can just deal with the two.
, when supplies are sufficient, he will eat meat every day."
Upon hearing this, many generals had complicated expressions.
Zhang Chengxiao's old face turned red: "I didn't realize that this Supervisor Chu is..."
For a moment, Zhang Chengxiao didn't know what to say. He was a little impressed, but he was embarrassed to say it.
Yang Baobei laughed loudly and said: "As expected of General Chu, he looks like a man from our frontier army."
Xiao Yi smiled broadly: "This is natural, on weekdays..."
Before Xiao Yi could finish speaking, Yang Baobei interrupted: "He-pei, traitor!"
Xiao Yi: “…”
Everyone got on their horses, went back to their respective camps, and ate their own bread.
Xiao Yi looked at Tian Hailong with a slightly depressed expression, and the latter looked helpless, and the two returned to the Marshal's house.
The meal was served, it was indeed naan bread and pickles, but it was served by Chef Lvzhu.
Usually, Tong Gui and a group of rough guys from the Imperial Guard cook the food, which is very unpalatable.
It was different after Lvzhu was replaced. His craftsmanship was very good, he was willing to add oil, the pickles were fragrant, and he was willing to use ingredients for the naan. Otherwise, Chu Qing would not be so "frugal" every day.
Maybe it was because he had been at the border for a long time, or maybe he had an unexplainable premonition. Chu Qing subconsciously adapted himself to the life at the border and tried his best to experience the hard life of the border army. Only in this way, he would not
Forgetting some things will also prepare you for certain things.
Fu San, who was squatting next to Chu Qing while eating his meal, said something incoherently.
"Master, do you know that among the major camps in the pass, only the Jingzhong Fengqi Camp has ever left the pass to fight. General Tan Zhongping and Tan, with six thousand people, followed the path of the wolf-catching army. Six thousand people left the pass and returned to the pass.
By that time, there were only two thousand people left.”
Chu Qing stuffed pickles into his mouth and said "oh".
He did know about this. Three years ago, when the Supreme Emperor first ascended the throne, it was considered a big crisis.
That time it was true. The Eight Dragons seized the throne, and there were some rebellions in various provinces in the pass, from south to north. The Liang Rong army circled the border city and massacred thirteen border towns. The emperor was furious, and the foundation was not stable.
Against all odds, the Fengqi Battalion was transferred from central Beijing to the border. Along the way, a total of 50,000 people were gathered at Zhechongfu and Tunbingwei. They were known to the outside world as 80,000. After leaving the border, the large army basically made no gains except for finding
It's just a few small tribes. The revenge has not been avenged, and the losses are still huge.
Fortunately, the Fengqi Battalion became a partial division. It went deep into the hinterland of the grassland to support the war. There were 6,000 cavalry. In the end, only about 2,000 people were left when they returned to the pass. They brought back more than 80 heads of the Liangrong nobles and killed them.
There are tens of thousands of enemies and thieves.
Of course, generals are more capable of bragging. Tan Zhongping's military report should be accurate. If you fold it in half, the accurate figure should be that more than 5,000 people were killed in formation.
Even though there were only 5,000 people, those who were killed did not count those who were beaten and run away. If those who were defeated were included, the number would be ten times higher.
"Young Master, General Tan has never read any books since he was a child, but in this battle and the battle out of seclusion, at least three generations of his Tan family can rest on their merits and wait to die."
Fu San chuckled: "Even so, General Tan also said privately that if the wolf-catching army comes out of seclusion, the gains will be more than three times that of Fengqi Camp, and the losses will be less. If you can reorganize the wolf-catching army and come out of seclusion,
With majesty and majesty, the Chu family has no worries for the five generations."
The actual situation is really like this. Although Tan Zhongping is poor and has never read a book, he is very tough in the Ministry of War. Civil servants are unwilling to listen to him and impeach him. This is not because this guy is a big boss, but because he has merit and merit.
The credit for the Guan campaign is indeed as Fu San said. At least the third and fourth generations will not have to worry about it. No matter which emperor they change, they must remember this credit.
"You are my master's only son."
Fu San looked at Chu Qing with great expectation: "It will only happen if you have military merit."
Tan Ma ran in, waving the letter.
"My lord, my lord, my lord, my lord, there is a letter, there is a letter from Beijing."
