I am the carpenter king

Chapter 294 The Army Comes

Dang Han and Liu Fenghua looked at each other, and looked at Luo Sigong with some hesitation. They naturally knew that the 5000 people from Sun Chengzong's side must have Luo Sigong's shadow.

After pondering for a while, Dang Han said in a hesitant voice: "My lord, if this is the case, we can hand over the matter to the people of Marshal Sun. We don't trust the people here in Zhangjiakou."

"It's not that we don't trust the people here in Zhangjiakou. It's that the people here really have problems. Although I've never participated in a performance like the emperor, there are quite a few things in Zhangjiakou in our Jinyiwei's secret file. There are not many people involved. Quite a few, even though some have retired, the influence is still there. If it wasn’t because of Huang Taiji this time, or because of the Emperor’s personal order, I wouldn’t have thought of coming to this place.” Luo Sigong sighed softly, rather Said helplessly.

After listening to Luo Sigong's words, Liu Fenghua pondered for a moment, and asked hesitantly, "My lord, how can we get in touch with Lord Sun's troops? If we let them come to Zhangjiakou directly, I'm afraid they will startle the snake."

"The secret agents of Jinyiwei have already contacted them. They will camp in a valley [-] miles away from Zhangjiakou. The terrain is hidden, and no one will go there easily. We will go there tomorrow, and we still need to discuss some things with them. All at once." Glancing at the two people, Luo Sigong said solemnly.

After a night of silence, Luo Sigong and Dang Han disguised themselves as businessmen in the early morning of the next day, and quietly left Zhangjiakou with a dozen people.

When passing by Laiyuan Fort on the side of Zhangjiakou, Luo Sigong couldn't help but look back a few times. Between Zhangjiakou Fort and Laiyuan Fort, there were countless crowds of stalls.People come and go, very prosperous, it can be described as very lively.

"It's really stuffed into the south of the Yangtze River. It's really too prosperous, and the place in the south of the Yangtze River is nothing more than that!" Looking at the crowd around him, Luo Sigong said quite emotionally.

Slowly nodding his head, Dang Han also sighed and said: "This is a place of trade between Daming and other ethnic groups outside the border, and it can indeed be said to be prosperous."

"Although the Mongolian Tartars are all of the same clan, there are many factions among them. There are many differences. The trading partners of our Ming Dynasty are limited, and there are also regulations on the items that can be traded, but I am afraid it is very chaotic now. The local yamen, guarding eunuchs, local frontier soldiers, and illegal smuggling merchants are intricately intertwined. It is difficult to find clues from such complicated relationships." Sighing softly, Liu Feng Hua said helplessly.Obviously he is not optimistic about this errand, and has little confidence.

After listening to Liu Fenghua's words, the two of them nodded in agreement, but Luo Sigong pondered for a while and then smiled and said, "You two, don't forget what the emperor sent us here for? We are here to capture Huang Taiji .Other things have nothing to do with us. As for other things, we don't have to ask, whoever gets in the way of Lao Tzu on this matter, I will kill him alive."

Seeing Luo Sigong's appearance, both of them were taken aback for a moment, but after looking at each other, they both saw the joy on the other's face.

Dang Han has been with Luo Sigong for many years, so he naturally has some understanding of this lord.Liu Fenghua used to be Luo Sigong's subordinate.I also know something about this old boss.Both of them knew what he was like before he sat on the commander of Jinyiwei.This one is also quite ambitious.At the same time, the methods are not bright enough. If you want to be a good Jinyiwei, if you are not a ruthless person, you will naturally be unable to do so.

Luo Sigong has worked in Jinyiwei for many years. From Wanli ten years to now, he has been sitting in the position of commander of Jinyiwei for more than 30 years.The means are naturally needless to say.As long as you really show the vigor of the past, coupled with the increasingly sophisticated methods now, these miscellaneous fish in Zhangjiakou are still easy to catch.

But the two of them didn't know that Luo Sigong still had a trump card in his heart, and that was Emperor Tianqi's royal order.Luo Sigong remembered the appearance of Emperor Tianqi.I also remember the words of Emperor Tianqi, it is better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let one go.Luo Sigong understood Emperor Tianqi's meaning very well, as long as he could catch Huang Taiji, he would do anything at all costs.Even if all the officials in Zhangjiakou were arrested, Emperor Tianqi could keep Luo Sigong.With a royal order like Emperor Tianqi, Luo Sigong naturally has no scruples.

Several people analyzed continuously along the way. After walking for about two hours, several people arrived at the mouth of a small valley under the leadership of Jin Yiwei's spies.

After looking around, Luo Sigong found that this place was really a good place to hide soldiers, and the beacon tower could be vaguely seen on the top of the mountain.Obviously there was a garrison here during the war, but Daming had a very good relationship with the Mongolian tribes in the past few years, and formed an alliance with Lindan Khan of Mongolia, and some military facilities have been abandoned.

Luo Sigong and a group of more than a dozen people were about to ride their horses to go inside, when a group of people flew out of the valley, there were probably dozens of people.Everyone is wearing Ming-style mandarin duck armor, but the weapons in their hands are different.

When these people came to Luo Sigong and the others, they surrounded Luo Sigong and others very fast and their movements were very skillful.Obviously this scene stunned Luo Sigong and the others, but they also discovered that these people were all elite cavalry, and there were not many such troops in the Ming Dynasty at this time.

"I don't know who these people are? What's the matter here?" A chief executive came forward, cupped his fists at Luo Sigong, and said in a rather polite tone.

The three of them looked at each other, and they all saw the disbelief in each other's eyes, to be so polite?Aren't they the legendary soldiers and ruffians?Several people couldn't help but become more curious about the leader of the army.

"We are members of Jin Yiwei. If we want to see your general, please let me know." Luo Sigong and the three of them did not move, and a Jin Yiwei who was following behind rode forward and said politely.

The boss was slightly taken aback, but he didn't want to let him go, but asked quite seriously: "Do you have anything to prove your identity?"

The Jin Yiwei turned his head to look at Luo Sigong, seeing Luo Sigong nodding, he took off his token from his waist.Gently raised it up to the person, beckoning him to take a look.

When he saw the badge of Baihu, the general didn't panic, but he cupped his fists at several people and said loudly: "The rules in the barracks, please don't be offended, we will go in and report. "After speaking, he nodded to a soldier, and that soldier rode his horse and headed into the valley.

Not long after, the soldier ran back again, came to the general manager, and whispered something in his ear.

Facing Luo Sigong and the others, the general said in a deep voice, "Several, our general invites you!"

Luo Sigong nodded slowly, and Luo Sigong walked in with the general manager.After arranging Luo Sigong and others in a tent, the general manager left.

Glancing around in the tent, Dang Han said hesitantly: "My lord, there are only 5000 people here this time. It is reasonable to say that the leader is at most a general soldier, and his grade will not be very high. Since he already knows that today will It’s an adult who came, but he didn’t come out to greet him, is there something wrong?”

Luo Sigong is the commander of the Jinyi Guards of the third rank. Compared with other military officers, he is not at the same level. Jinyi's pro-army is not called for nothing.There are as many commanders of the third grade in the local area, and there is only one commander of Jinyiwei, and the status is not the same.

Smiling calmly, Luo Sigong said softly: "Since he didn't come out, there must be a reason why he didn't come out. I think the person who led the team this time has a high official position!"

Not long after, footsteps sounded outside, the curtain was raised lightly, and two people walked in outside.Walking in front was a middle-aged man, wearing armor, a red cloak behind him, and a sword at his waist, dressed like a general.Behind him is a relatively thin man who is also wearing armor. It can be seen from his clothes that this is a general soldier.

Luo Sigong was taken aback when he saw the person coming in, he knew the person in front of him, he was really inferior to him in terms of status, he should come out to greet him, but Luo Sigong also knew that he couldn't care less.

The man came to Luo Sigong's side, clasped his fists at Luo Sigong, saluted and said: "He Shixian, the lowly general of Shenyang, has seen your lord! Your lord has not been able to meet you when you come, please forgive me."

Gently helping He Shixian up, Luo Sigong said with a smile: "General He is polite, why should you be so polite when you and I are of the same rank." Although Luo Sigong's status is quite high, but He Shixian is also a third-rank Zhaowu general, and the emperor specially rewarded him If he didn't come out to meet Luo Sigong, he couldn't say anything.

After the guests and hosts were seated, Luo Sigong explained the reason for his visit, hoping that He Shixian could guard all traffic hubs to prevent Huang Taiji from escaping.

He Shixian was fine, but Sun Chengzong made it clear before he came, and asked him to listen to Luo Sigong in everything.Seeing Luo Sigong finished speaking, He Shixian wanted to agree, but the person standing behind He Shixian came to his ear and said something.

Seeing this scene, Luo Sigong frowned, but he didn't speak. If he reprimanded this person, he would offend He Shixian.Usually there may be nothing, but it is better not to have any accidents at this juncture.

"Since you think so, then you can tell Lord Luo! Marshal Sun told me about Lord Luo's character, so it doesn't matter if you think about it." Smiling at Luo Sigong, He Shixian said briskly.

Seeing that He Shixian blocked his mouth and even lifted Sun Chengzong out, He Shixian nodded slowly, and said in a deep voice: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly."

Glancing at Luo Sigong, Zhao led the teaching and said in a deep voice: "Lord Luo, as the commanding officer of Jinyiwei, represents the emperor to Zhangjiakou. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for the emperor to do so?" (To be continued...)
