please make me king

Chapter 510

When Chen Qiyu received the imperial decree, the weather turned cold and it was already the end of October.

At that time, Chen Qiyu put a lot of charcoal fires in the tent, which was warm like spring, but his heart shivered as if he had been blown by the cold wind outside the tent.

Emperor Chongzhen's reprimand and relegation were a very obvious signal, showing that he was beginning to be disappointed with Chen Qiyu.

Once the holy family is gone, the bureaucrats that Chen Qiyu offended during his tenure as governor of the five provinces will surely counterattack and devour him completely.

Chen Qiyu arranged for the middle officials who came to deliver the decree with great sincerity, and then hid in the tent and secretly opened the letters brought by the entourage.

The letter was written by his in-law Zhang Fengyi, Minister of the Ministry of War, and there was only a short sentence on it: "Wanwu is to exterminate the 'Yu Bandit'!"

This seems like nonsense, but at their level, it is enough to express a lot of things.

It shows that Emperor Chongzhen was extremely dissatisfied with his deceitful actions in the "Chexiang Gorge" incident, and the fact that he threw the "black pot" on the emperor's head, and he had already moved to kill.

If he still has no results in exterminating the "Yu bandits", death and family extermination are probably the best end.

Thinking about Yuan Chonghuan, the supervisor of Ji Liao who was delayed by [-] knives, Chen Qiyu couldn't help but panic.

As for the matter of suppressing thieves, Chen Qiyu is not afraid.Since he served as the governor of Yansui, dozens of leaders of the rebel army, large and small, have died under him, and he has never been soft-hearted.

It's just that Chongzhen wants to transfer him to the post of governor of Henan, but it makes his scalp tingle.There is no other, just because Henan is an inland province, the major generals are weak and there are no soldiers available.

Even Xuan Mo, the Governor of Henan, could only lead Zuo Liangyu, Li Bei and other guest soldiers sent by the imperial court to Zhuyang Town to encircle the rebels. Even a surrendered general like Wei Zhiyou could serve as the garrison of Song County. One can imagine.

In fact, Henan is not without elite soldiers. The "hair gourds" and miners in western Henan, the monks in Shaolin Temple, and the elite soldiers in government officials in Kaifeng are all famous in the world.

However, now that Chen Qiyu is too busy to take care of himself, how can he have time to recruit and train soldiers?
After thinking about it, the only way is to lead troops from Shaanxi to encircle and suppress.Thinking of this, Chen Qiyu had no choice but to go to visit Hong Chengchou, the new crown prince who had just returned from a big victory over Huduntu in the Han Dynasty and the Minister of the Ministry of War, and the governor of the five provinces of Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, Huguang, and Sichuan.

The two were courteous at first, and after Chen Qiyu carefully congratulated Hong Chengchou on being promoted to governor of the five provinces, he tentatively proposed to second some Shaanxi troops to Henan to suppress the bandits.

Then Hong Chengchou is a domineering person, how can he agree to it?Generals like Ai Wannian, Zuo Guangxian, Bai Guangen, Wang Chengen, etc. who were more daring to fight, he held them all in his hands and refused to let others use them.

Now that Chen Qiyu, who has lost power, wants to ask him to borrow troops, how can he give it?Hong Chengchou, the new governor of the five provinces, sneered and said, "When Chen Junmen suppressed bandits for a long time, you should know that every soldier in every town in Shaanxi has a place to use. If I borrow it from you now, and the bandits take the opportunity to escape, who is it? "

When Chen Qiyu heard this, he couldn't help being a little angry, and couldn't help but sarcastically said: "If only three forces can be used to suppress it, what's the use of me, the governor of the five provinces?"

"Borrowing or not borrowing is a matter of affection. Since the supervisor does not follow, Chen has nothing to say. Just let the supervisor know that our Henan soldiers and horses followed the imperial order and went to Luoyang to suppress the bandits. Surround the Qin bandits. For the matter, please do your best to do it!"

After finishing speaking, he was about to leave in a huff. The new governor of the five provinces, Hong Chengchou, saw that he was going to die without a little blood, so he stood up and grabbed Chen Qiyu, and said with a smile, "Why should the army be angry? I will join you with a few troops That is, what is worth between us?"

It's no wonder that Hong Chengchou subdued, since Chen Qiyu has served as the governor of Henan, he naturally has the right to mobilize the troops led by the governor of Henan Xuanmo.

If the two broke their faces, and the new governor of Henan, Chen Qiyu, simply took away the soldiers and horses defending the "Chuangwang" and "Chuangjiang" in the west of Henan, then the thieves who were finally besieged in southern Shaanxi might take the opportunity to escape. Birth day.

At that time, no matter how many soldiers and horses he has under Hong Chengchou's command, how will he besiege these people together again?

Chen Qiyu saw that Hong Chengchou was subdued, and when there were steps, he went down the slope.After all, he, Chen Qiyu, was the one who caused the bandits to wreak havoc on Shaanxi.

If this group of people can really escape, Hong Chengchou, the new governor of the five provinces, will be punished, what good will he, the "instigator", end up with?
Although Hong Chengchou had just taken office, he was familiar with the arrangement and strength of both the officials and the bandits, so he said with a smile: "I don't think it's better than this. , there are about [-] elites, I will lend them to you for the time being, what do you think?"

"No, no!" Chen Qiyu couldn't help but shook his head when he heard the words, "These four people are well-behaved, they may not be the opponent of the gangster Zhang Shun, why don't you second your commander-in-chief Wang Cheng'en to me, it can be regarded as a backbone!"

Wang Chengen, as a representative of a series of military generals in Qinghai, had a sudden performance in this battle against Huduntuhan of the Han Dynasty. How could Hong Chengchou be willing to fight?
He laughed and said: "Chen Junmen don't want to keep thinking about beating my people. Isn't Cao Wenzhao, the general officer who was ordered to hunt for thieves, even more famous? Why don't you go to him? Then Cao Wenzhao and him There is blood and deep hatred, and I will definitely not sit idly by!"

"What's more, I heard that although the 'Shun Bandit' is powerful, he only has four or five thousand soldiers. If there is no natural danger in the Yellow River, I am afraid that it would not be necessary for Chen Junmen to go out, and then Cao Wenzhao would be able to capture and kill this person. "

"If you still refuse to follow me, I can allow you to mobilize the capital camp in Henan. The commander-in-chief Ni Chong and Wang Pu have [-] troops under their command, which you can use!"

Chen Qiyu did some calculations, and found that if he could do this, he would have about [-] soldiers under his command, which is about four times that of the "Shun Bandit".

The Art of War says: Ten will surround it, five will attack it, double it will divide it, and the enemy will be able to fight it.Even if the standard battalion and the Beijing battalion under his command are not very capable of fighting, can't he still destroy a small "shun thief"?

Chen Qiyu was overjoyed when he heard the words, thanked Hong Chengchou, said goodbye and left.

When he returned to his tent, he couldn't wait to write a letter to Shanxi governor Wu Zhen.The general meaning of the letter is to say:
That Cao Wenzhao was originally appointed by the Holy Majesty to be the commander-in-chief to encircle and suppress the "Yu thieves". Because the entrustment was not effective, it bothered me to go to war again.

I heard that Cao Wenzhao had a deep blood feud with that "Shun thief", and even his nephew died at his hands.Because of this, Cao Wenzhao Chen Bingmao, only seeking revenge day and night.

Now I want to lead the army to destroy the thieves, but I don't know if Cao Wenzhao, the commander-in-chief, has any intentions?Now the bandits in Shanxi are almost wiped out, but the people in Henan Province are still suffering from the bandits. Governor of Shanxi, shouldn't you also think about them?

Shanxi governor Wu Wei received the letter from Chen Qiyu, the new governor of Henan Province, and smiled, and handed it over to Cao Wenzhao, the current general aid officer.

Cao Wenzhao took it over and looked at it, and couldn't help plopping down on his knees and said, "I will never forget Wu Fujun's kindness to me. It's just that I have a deep hatred with that 'shun thief', and now is the time for revenge. Please Fujun allow me to go to Henan."

Shanxi Governor Wu Yan hurriedly helped Cao Wenzhao up when he heard the words, and laughed loudly: "I help you not because of selfishness, but because of public interest! But I have a plan, and it is impossible to escape the 'following thief' if you discipline it. Stay at my place for a few more days, and I will write a letter to that Chen Qiyu!"
