Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 63 The Change of Shanhaiguan

Two months passed in a blink of an eye. During these two months, Liu Hongjian basically stayed in the barracks of the Thousand Households Office on Wansui Mountain, and only went home every few days to see his wife and father.

It was the summer season in the north, and due to participating in training in the military camp every day, Liu Hongjian became obviously darker, which made Sun Xiuxiu feel distressed every time he went home.

After two months of sweating, although the current Liu Hongjian is not dark, he has become more vigorous. It is undeniable that the current Liu is sure to KO the original self within ten seconds.

Of course, besides saying hello to my father every time I go home, I am at a young and energetic age, and I have to applaud for love. Liu Hongjian, who participates in military camp training every day, makes his little wife feel overwhelmed every time, and even himself Yelling for another room.

Liu Hongjian felt quite proud at this time, and he should exercise more, unlike the listless sub-health of the later generations who sat in the office every day.

Last month, Niu Dabangchui and Xiaolan at home finally tied the knot. Thanks to Liu Hongjian's return every now and then, Niu Dabangchui, who was the guard and thug, had the opportunity to bond with Xiaolan.

The wedding of Niu Dabangchui and Xiaolan was held in the Liu Mansion, and the courtyard of Nuo Da was finally full of excitement. All the dishes for the banquet were arranged by the royal chef of the Liu Mansion, Sister Liu.

Liu Hongjian made the decision to let Niu Dabangchui's parents also move into Liu's residence, not only dividing the house, but also giving them errands, which moved Niu Dabangchui so much.

Except for the old Liangtou of Jinyiwei who had nothing to do to join in the excitement of the wedding, the rest were all young generals from the Qianhu Office of Longevity Mountain.

When young people get together, it's natural to exchange cups and drinks, and drink so much that they don't even remember who their wives are.

A month ago, three 'flat-headed brothers' came from Jiangyin County in the south. Liu Hongjian was finally relieved to see the three of them.

Because there was no clear information, Liu Hongjian originally thought that three old men would come, but only after they met did they find that Yan Yingyuan and Chen Mingyu looked to be in their early twenties, while Feng Dunhou looked more stable, around thirties.

Both Yan Yingyuan and Chen Mingyu were born as scholars, they knew mathematics and rules, and now the Longevity Mountain Thousand Households just happened to lack literati to manage grain and supplies, so they were undoubtedly a good fit.

And Feng Dunhou used to be a teacher in Jiangyin. The so-called teacher is an education official who inspects the homework performance of local talents.

The three of them had no previous occupations and no grades. When they first received the imperial decree from Chongzhen, they were all in fear, wondering if they had committed something and were found out by their superiors.

But along the way, the angel (the person who rushed to other places in the Ming Dynasty to proclaim the decree) not only did not speak ill, but entertained them all the way with delicious food and drink.

Wang Erxi was specially instructed by Chongzhen to treat Yan Yingyuan and other three people favorably. It is no wonder that Emperor Chongzhen acted like this. After all, Liu Hongjian was very solemn when he said the names of these three people.

Emperor Chongzhen, who was eager for talents, thought he had met a capable minister, but the three people he brought over surprised him. Perhaps the three had never entered the palace, and they were a little nervous when they entered the hall.

In the face of Chongzhen's questioning, he stammered and disappointed Chongzhen, so the three of them were sent by Chongzhen to the Qianhu Office of Wansui Mountain as promised, without being intercepted by Emperor Chongzhen.

Liu Hongjian also accommodated the family members of the three people in his big house. Anyway, his house had dozens of rooms, and only his family of three lived in it.

The three of Yan Yingyuan have always been in a daze. They have been exhausted all the way from the far south of the Yangtze River. They were not familiar with the place, and then they were taken to the court and were stared at by the officials. They were also very disturbed. What kind of medicine is sold here.

It wasn't until he came to the barracks in a daze and got an errand assigned by Liu Hongjian that he finally felt relieved.

Liu Hongjian gave the position of Deputy Qianhu to the three-person Qianhu Office, and the eyes of the three were straightened in shock. From a low-ranking official with no rank to a fifth-rank deputy Qianhu, it is estimated that there is only a backup. Liu Hongjian, who was relied on by Emperor Chongzhen, was able to do it.

Those who have come will be safe, and all three of them have the heart to serve the country. Given the current situation, joining the army is naturally the best way to serve the country.

After only staying in the barracks for a few days, the three of them fell in love with this place. The soldiers in the Thousand Households of Wansui Mountain are all teenagers, and they are full of heroic spirit everywhere.

And Liu Hongjian, the chief, is also easy-going. As long as he trains well and obeys the law, he will laugh every day.

Yan Yingyuan and his wife were in charge of the county government's grain collection and other matters when they were doing classic history. They came here to be familiar with the way to organize the messy military barracks warehouses and accounts in an orderly manner.

Feng Dunhou, who was a little older, put forward new training opinions many times to enhance training efficiency and improve the training enthusiasm of soldiers.

After two months of high-intensity training, not only did each of the soldiers of the Thousand Houses of the Banzai Mountain master the skills of using the AKM, they also selected a hundred soldiers with the best shooting results as the firearms of the Thousand Houses of the Banzai Mountain. Hundreds of households.

Shield soldiers, gunmen and shooters, formed a group of three, with hundreds of households as the unit, training and actual combat exercises every day.

In such two months, the Qianhu House in Wansui Mountain grew from nothing, not only gave birth to muscles and bones, but also grew wings.

On the morning of the third day of July, when Liu Hongjian was training with the soldiers of the Qianhu Institute, Chang Yu, the deputy of Qianhu, came to report that Jinyiwei had come.

It was Jiang Datong, the governor of Jinyiwei's Nanzhen Fusi, who came. Today, he suddenly received an urgent report from Jinyiwei who was staying in the border town for [-] miles.

Shanhaiguan General Ping Xibo and Wu Sangui had a private meeting with Manchu Dingguo General Duoduo. After receiving the news, Jiang Datong thought the matter was of great importance, so he immediately decided to report to Liu Hongjian who was not doing business and stayed in the barracks every day.

Can you finally bear it?Liu Hongjian's eyes were stern, and he sneered in his heart.

After going to the Palace Newspaper and Chongzhen, Chongzhen was shocked and knocked over the teacup in his hand.

According to the statistics of the Ministry of War, there are [-] soldiers in the frontier army, including [-] infantry including the firearm battalion, and [-] Liaodong cavalry.

The [-] recruits currently recruited by the Beijing Camp have just begun training, and they have not formed a strong combat effectiveness at all.

If Wu Sangui had an affair with the Manchus, would Ming still be able to withstand the trampling of the 20 cavalry of the Manchus and Liaodong soldiers?
Liu Hongjian always wondered that now that the imperial court had money, he had also made up the payment owed to the frontier army, why this person hadn't responded before, but was now asking for money and food.

As a result, Emperor Chongzhen's words directly made Liu Hongjian understand why the diligent emperor in front of him always did things with half the effort and wasted all his previous efforts.

"A few days ago, Tianbian Town sent a memorial to ask for the military salary. All the ministers were angry and asked the Ministry of Households to send someone to check whether the border troops were not paid. I couldn't be more angry.

So Wu Gan, the right servant of the household department, was sent to Shanhaiguan to work in the army, and he checked the number of soldiers in the frontier army..."

It is estimated that Chongzhen also realized the problem, so I won't say more about it.

Liu Hongjian was also speechless. You said that you gave all the money, and you still doubted him. I think Mr. Wu from the household department will not be able to come back.

"I treat him well, he wants food and I give him food, he wants money and I give money, why did Wu Sangui betray... My heart aches..."

Speaking of the latter, Chongzhen's face and eyes began to turn red again.

Well, after all, how many generals of the Ming Dynasty are not corrupt or corrupt, you are going to copy their old background. If this person is in the mainland, it is okay to say, and he can't run anywhere.

Wu Sangui has been in charge of Shanhaiguan for nearly ten years, and if you suddenly check on the old man, no one is afraid to end up as the second governor of Yuan Dudu.

Back then, Huang Taiji bypassed the Ningjin line of defense and attacked the capital directly. Dudu Yuan led Guan Ning's cavalry King Qin and repelled Jiannu, but in the end he won a Lingchi reward.

Not to mention Yuan Dudu's past merits and demerits, he saved you after all, you shaved off King Qin's leader, what do other people think.

It can be said that Yuan Dudu's chief general Zu Dashou's surrender has something to do with it. In March, the army broke into the besieged city and no one came to serve the king, which is also inseparable from this matter.

In the final analysis, it was not because Chongzhen lacked political intuition.

"Your Majesty, no matter how much you hate the matter, it will be useless, the most urgent thing is to send someone to Shanhaiguan to stabilize the situation.

The frontier army fought against the Manchus for generations, almost every soldier had a family member, and Pao Ze died under the iron heel of the Manchus. Even Wu Sangui would have to work hard to instigate the frontier army. "

Liu Hongjian frowned and expressed his opinion.

"Aiqing's words are justified. I am a little confused now. This matter concerns the survival of Ming Dynasty. I can't trust those people in the Ministry of War. Right now, the only person I can trust is you, Aiqing..."

Full of hope, Chongzhen stepped forward and placed his right hand on Liu Hongjian's shoulder.

"Since entering the court, Aiqing has saved Daming from fire and water many times, and has never disappointed me. Aiqing..."

"Your Majesty, this humble minister is to take orders..." Liu Hongjian couldn't stand Chongzhen's provocative request, so he knelt down and saluted to interrupt him.

Chongzhen didn't take it seriously, but stepped forward to help him up himself.

The emperor himself went to help the courtiers. If they were ordinary generals, they would have been excited to swear to die for the king, but Liu Hongjian seemed very calm instead.

He has never paid much attention to these etiquette things. You must have that ability first.

"Your Majesty, if you go to Shanhaiguan, sending the Beijing camp over will definitely startle the enemy, and the Beijing camp's initial training is naturally no match for the frontier army.

Wei Chen planned to send only 1000 or [-] people from the Qianhu Office of Wansui Mountain to Shanhaiguan. Firstly, the marching speed must be fast if there are fewer people. "

"Everything depends on Aiqing. All the food, weapons, and money needed for the march are at Aiqing's disposal. I will notify the Ministry of Households later..."

I want horses, Liu Hongjian almost blurted out, from the capital to Shanhaiguan, the mountains are high and the roads are far away, the sad thing is that the Ming army is currently extremely short of horses, if you run across, it will definitely delay your time.

What the hell, is it human to run hundreds of kilometers on two legs?Ma De, after this job is done, we must deal with the gang of Shanxi merchants who eat inside and out.

"Your Majesty, I'm going to Shanhaiguan. I think I will march lightly and quickly. Except for the necessary rations and weapons, I will not bring anything I can do without. It's just..."

Liu Hongjian hesitated for a moment.

"Just what?" Chongzhen asked hastily.

"If I go, I need to have the power of life and death, and the emperor has to allow me to do things cheaply, including falsely preaching an imperial decree!"

He brought such a few people there, naturally he didn't go to Liaodong Iron Cavalry, Tie Suo Xiongguan, he must outsmart them.

Of course, Chongzhen, who asked for an imperial decree from Chongzhen, would naturally not refuse, but the imperial court's imperial decree was correct, and the big soldiers in the Northeast might not understand it.

"I agree! Aiqing can do things cheaply when he goes to the border town. Aiqing should go here as if I were here in person!"

Chongzhen didn't hesitate at all when he said this, which moved Liu Hongjian very much. After all, he was going to play with his life.

"In this case, I will go back and prepare first. If there are no accidents, I will definitely send troops to Shanhaiguan at noon tomorrow!"

He himself only had such a small number of soldiers, with a total of 1000 or [-] people, and half a day was enough to tidy up a little. The extra time was just to go home and have a look.

This trip is dangerous, and he himself is not sure that he can come back alive, not to mention that lovely person at home, alas, what should be faced is still to be faced.

"Aiqing, I will definitely go to Taimiao every day to pray for Daming and you! Daming, please!" Chongzhen wept.

Liu Hongjian, who had just taken two steps, stopped, turned around and gave Chongzhen a solemn royal gift.

"The minister will live up to the entrustment!" After speaking, he got up and left the Qianqing Palace without looking back.
