The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

"My lord," Wang Meng bowed to Zhang Fan and said, "The lowly positions are all ready."

"So fast," Zhang Fan seemed a little surprised, but he was not surprised. Although several places are very close to the capital, it has only been more than a day now, and Wang Meng has already prepared everything. Well, Zhang Fan was a little surprised, "Where is he now?"

"It's all in the yamen," Wang Meng said here, his brows slightly frowned, "My lord, please forgive the words of the humble official, but these people are the first choice for this matter, but the humble official always feels that letting them Go, I still can't let our people look at them, I'm really worried, I'm not afraid that they won't be able to do it, after all, it's something that can't be helped, but I'm afraid... I'm afraid that they will not only fail to do it, but also do bad things, "

"Well, your worry is not unreasonable," Zhang Fan said, but his smiling face really didn't look like he was worried, "But now, we have nothing else to do except these people." I can only leave the matter to them, "

"Your Excellency...you are right," Wang Meng was choked by Zhang Fan's words for a moment, and then he spoke again after a while, "It's just...you understand what Your Excellency said, but, don't you worry about it? , in case...if things are messed up by them, then I'm afraid..."

"Wang Meng, I know what you're worried about," Zhang Fan said with a smile on his face, "It's just that no matter how much we worry about this kind of thing now, it's useless. If you are physically and mentally exhausted, you might as well trust them and get things done,”

"...Yes..." Wang Meng sighed helplessly. It's not that he didn't understand what Zhang Fan said, and he even knew that what Zhang Fan said was completely reasonable. Over there, although the appearance has not yet been revealed, the inside is actually a mess. At this juncture, Zhang Fan wants to do something to help, but he is worried about what will happen because of Li Chengliang's personal reasons. It had the opposite effect, so I had to send these people.

However, even if Wang Meng understood what Zhang Fan said, and understood that they had no choice but to pin their hopes on these people and these desperadoes, he was still very troubled in his heart, but then again, How could this situation not annoy Wang Meng?

After all, the Northeast operation this time is not only to help the Northeast to stabilize the situation, nor is it just to help Nurhachi for Zhu Yijun, but also Wang Meng's own personal factors are mixed in it. The three major concerns are now It is really not a pleasant thing to rely on such a group of desperadoes, who will never have a good impression of the court.

If possible, Wang Meng didn't want to see this kind of thing at all, but now, it actually happened in front of his eyes. It is the truth.

"However, I think Wang Meng, you are a little worried too much," Zhang Fan said with a sudden smile, "Yes, you are right to worry. Although these people are all Han Chinese and hate foreigners, they are all some people after all. Compared with the gangsters who kill without blinking an eye, our imperial court is as worthy of hatred as those foreigners in their eyes.

"But now we can only use them, and, one more thing, this time we are just trying to disrupt Wang Gao's plan. In fact, we can't help the current situation in Northeast China at all, even if they If it succeeds, it will only make future wars more beneficial to the imperial court. Of course, it will also make the situation of some people safer.

"However, speaking of it this way, I always feel that it doesn't matter whether we do it or not. However, knowing that we don't do it is still very uncomfortable. If this can make the future war end sooner, If one less life was sacrificed, it would all be worth it now.

"It's just that, I'm afraid these people are really close to death,"

"My lord..." Wang Meng felt a lot of gratitude in his heart for Zhang Fan's words. Although Zhang Fan didn't say it clearly, people who knew a little bit of the inside story might think that what Zhang Fan meant was to protect Nurhachi in order to help Zhu Yijun. But Wang Meng understood very well in his heart.

When it comes to making Nurhachi's situation safer, Wang Meng naturally believes it, but Wang Meng also understands that Zhang Fan's actions are only strengthening a line of defense. If he trusted him, he didn't tell Zhu Yijun about it. It can be seen that Zhang Fan's original intention of doing this was not the case. He really wanted to help Zhu Yijun.

As for starting from the principle, if Zhang Fan is concerned about the situation in the Northeast, he is right. After all, is the world peaceful? Zhang Fan is naturally willing to see it, but there are some things that are worth discussing. After all, when it comes to matters in the Northeast, it is also the matter of the Jurchens.

And now, although the war in the Northeast is imminent, Li Chengliang has already made complete preparations, just waiting for Wang Gao to launch an attack, so he has a reason to send troops to wipe out Wang Gao's group, but Li Chengliang is not a man who only knows how to fight Crazy, among the preparations he is making now, the protection of the people is also the top priority. After all, he is also a military general in the court, the commander of one side. In the future, even if he wins the battle, the people will suffer countless casualties If you don't, I'm afraid there will still be troubles, no, there will always be troubles, even if you go out and return with a complete victory, wipe out the enemy, and none of your own people die, there will naturally be someone in the court who will make trouble for you, Li Chengliang Doing this just makes the trouble a little less.

It is normal for soldiers to be killed or injured. In the future, only the Jurchens will die. Zhang Fan doesn't care about these foreigners, but he doesn't care that much. That is to say, even if Zhang Fan doesn't do anything now, in the future The situation will not change much.

However, Zhang Fan still did this, and this matter was very troublesome, but Zhang Fan still did it.

Naturally, Wang Meng understood that Zhang Fan would do this because he wanted to help him. How could Wang Meng not understand this, but there are some things that he understood in his heart That's fine, don't say it anymore.

"But my lord, just letting these people go, I really don't feel at ease in my heart." Although the decision has already been made, Wang Meng still expressed his uneasiness.

But after hearing what Wang Meng said again, Zhang Fan did not veto impatiently, but after serious thinking, he finally said: "Well, what you said is also reasonable, although we have the support of these people In hand, but these people are really not the ones who can make people feel at ease, "

"Or, let the humble officials go too," Wang Meng suggested, "let the humble officials take them with them. In terms of martial arts, the humble officials are fine. If you think those people have something in our hands, they don't dare to do anything to the humble officials. What's more important Yes, if you go to a lowly position, you can also take care of them, lest they act recklessly and cause any trouble, "

"No, you can't," Zhang Fan immediately vetoed Wang Meng's proposal, "You must not go, not to mention that they will be hostile to you, and I'm afraid they will be even more incapable of doing things." Pay attention, and the most important thing is that we have already said this action before, and we must not let Wang Gao or Li Chengliang know that it is the people we sent.

"If there is any accident, if anyone among those people is arrested by Wang Gao's people, even if it is confessed that we sent them, but if there is no evidence, no matter whether it is against the court or Li Chengliang, we will It’s good to have an explanation, but if they confess your identity, it will be troublesome.”

"This..." Hearing what Zhang Fan said, Wang Meng hesitated for a moment. However, what Zhang Fan said was not wrong at all. The most important thing about this matter is not whether it will succeed or not. , will cause trouble to Wang Gao, this is the most important thing.

But other than that, the most important thing is that Wang Gao or Li Chengliang must not be allowed to know that it is the manpower sent by the Jinyiwei, and even, I am afraid that even the court does not know it is the best. After all, this operation can be regarded as Zhang Fan made his own claims. Although it is said that no matter it is Jinyiwei or Dongchang, there are quite a few times of self-assessments. Compared with the troubles solved, it is not worth mentioning. However, the current situation in the court and China is so chaotic. Fan didn't want to make any trouble at this juncture.

"However..." Zhang Fan thought for a while and said, "What you said is also reasonable. Don't be afraid of [-], just in case, if these people know that they will die this time, and they insist on causing something to happen, I'm afraid the handles in our hands can't settle anything, "

"Then... Your Excellency means..." Hearing what Zhang Fan said, Wang Meng knew that Zhang Fan had an idea, so he couldn't help asking.

"How about this?" Zhang Fan suddenly thought of something, and said, "What we have to do now is to keep those people from knowing that we have also sent people to go with them."

"My lord means..." Wang Meng also understood Zhang Fan's meaning, "Find someone of my own and mix with them,"

"That's right, that's exactly what it means," Zhang Fan said, "It's just that, in this case, it's necessary to find someone who is unremarkable, but if they are unremarkable, I'm afraid I can't tell them what to do, um... In this way, Our people are inside, so we don’t need to tell them what to do, we just need to monitor them, and if there is any trouble, we will inform Li Chengliang with a secret report and ask him to send troops to wipe out this group of people.”

"But my lord, in this way, Li Chengliang will know," Wang Meng asked.

"It doesn't matter," Zhang Fan said with a smile, "Could it be that you have forgotten that our Jin Yiwei's job is not good enough?"
