Profit-only people value faith and righteousness the most, they get people's money and help them eliminate disasters.

Lin Jiantai delivered 300 tons of grain and grass to Pingdugou where the Jinzhou Army was located in four batches according to the agreement, and on the 23rd, in the name of grain adjustment in Shang County, he sent Tang Yinjiu and 100 people to escort a thousand catties of gunpowder to Pingdugou.

Shi Dayong gave 5000 taels as promised, and the goods and silver were cleared, and the imminent crisis of food shortage for the Jinzhou Army came to an end for the time being.However, with the arrival of two thousand Sichuan soldiers one after another, the food consumption is also high. Optimistically, it can be supported until the fourth or fifth day of the new year.

In order to completely solve the big problem of food shortage, Shi Dayong sent Guo Yi with a secret letter to the capital to visit Cao Huachun of the East Factory and Wang Chengen, the secretary of the inner court.As long as these two inner court bosses can come forward to help, then Gao Qiqian will definitely obey, otherwise no matter how much money there is, it won't be able to withstand the oppression of Lin Jiantai's vampire.

Guo Yi went here to bring a lot of money, Shi Dayong asked him to visit the seriously ill Qiu Hejia first after he arrived in the capital, and told the old governor the current situation of the Jinzhou Army, hoping that the old governor could mediate. [

Because of Qiu Hejia's two-sleeved style, Fang jumped from being a man to a military force during the "already changed" in the second year of Chongzhen, and then went out to Fuliao, and the family had no money.The capital is a prosperous place. I heard that the old governor and his family did not have a mansion in the capital, but rented a residence outside Dongzhimen for a temporary stay.Feeling that the old governor is clean and honest, Shi Dayong couldn't bear to be controlled by money after the old governor left office, so he specially asked Guo Yi to keep five hundred gold for his family to spend in the capital, and Buy some high-quality ginseng medicinal materials to treat the elders.The reason why I want to hide it from the boss is because I am afraid that the boss will not be rewarded by his subordinates.

Ashamed of the owner of the body, Shi Dayong asked Guo Yi to go to Changping after finishing his errands, and gave him 1000 taels of silver to the younger sister who married a scholar, and told his brother that he was now climbing the bandits in Laiping and waiting to calm down the bandits. After the chaos, when I return to Liaodong, I will go home.

In addition, Shao Wu was sent back to Jinzhou on a fast horse, and [-] soldiers from the Huang'an Department who stayed in Jinzhou were dispatched to the south.At the same time, Shao and Huang are asked to contact the new governor of Liaodong, Sun Ting, to see what the new governor thinks about the situation in Liaodong.What do you think of his Jinzhou generals who are alone, can you come forward and appeal to the court for them.

Shi Dayong has done what he can, now it is up to him where the turning point will appear.

For the sake of money, Pei Shaokuan privately sent all kinds of pond newspapers and copies received by the army to Shi Dayong, and even leaked to Shi Dayong the content of the meeting that Gao Qiqian called the generals to discuss matters.

From Pei Shaokuan's mouth, Shi Dayong finally learned why Gao Qi's latent small officials and supporters did not enter. It turned out that someone in the court discussed with Kong Youde in private without telling the emperor.

It is said that Zhou Yanru, the former Chief Assistant, Liu Yulie, a scholar and Minister of the Ministry of War, and Zhang Guochen, the head of the Ministry of War, also tried their best to appease him.

Shi Dayong doesn't know how the care is going, he doesn't know how long Gao Qiqian will wait, but he knows that Kong Youde will never accept the care.This thief is cunning and changeable, and has repeatedly feigned surrender, which is not credible at all.There are lessons learned from Sun Yuanhua's past, but I don't know why those adults in the court who still advocate appeasement still want to make such a bad move.

The army was just outside the city of Laizhou, and Li Jiuzheng from the Ministry of Kong was defeated again. At this time, the army rushed over in one go. With the cooperation of the defenders in Laizhou city, they would surely be able to wipe out the rebels under the city of Laizhou.

This way of not fighting but not advancing, and waiting for the success of the appeasement, will not only waste food and pay, but also delay military aircraft. If Laizhou City cannot withstand it, it will be much more difficult to capture this fortified city, and it will increase the casualties of the officers and soldiers in vain.

Shi Dayong hates, the ruler is stupid!He hated him for not being the commander-in-chief of the army, and hated Gao Qiqian's eunuch for making mistakes, but no matter how much he hated, it would not help.His Jinzhou army is single and weak, and has become a large army and abandoned the army. If Lin Jiantai and others hadn't seen the sharp eyes, they would have collapsed early, so why would the Jinzhou army come here!

Let's caress, until now, there is no other way, Gao Qiqian wants to caress, then please caress, I hope this caress can be successful.

Shi Dayong was fed up with suffering in this unshitty Pingdugou, and wished he could lead his troops back to Liaodong as soon as possible, so as not to worry about Gao Qiqian being shot in the back someday.

On the 25th, both Deng Ke and Wang Hong visited in plain clothes. The purpose of their visit was not only to see how the two thousand soldiers were doing at Shi Dayong's place, but also to bring a definite message to Shi Dayong—the war was over.

do not fight?

Shi Dayong was startled, and immediately became happy. Could it be that the caregiver is really fucking done?

Unexpectedly, Deng Ke said that the rebels were still outside Laizhou City, and the caretakers were all pushed into the buttocks, and there was no sign of them at all. [

Since the consolation was unsuccessful, what is Gao Qiqian waiting for?Hit!The bird eunuch is still waiting for a dick hair!

Shi Dayong didn't stop, and couldn't help scolding Gao Qiqian.

Deng Ke listened and smiled lightly, so-called.Wang Hong was stunned for a moment, then cursed, and then said that this time it was not eunuch Gao who refused to beat him, but the court who refused to beat him.

"The imperial court transferred us here because of Ping Kong Youde, who relieved Denglai's danger, why don't they let us fight now?" Shi Dayong was at a loss.

Wang Hong laughed and said, "Wouldn't it be a good thing if we don't want us to fight all our lives? Brother, why do you want to fight?" Deng Ke and Shi Dayong got married, and Wang Hong and Deng Ke had a deep friendship, so they also became commensurate with Brother Shi Dayong.Compared with Deng Ke, he put more emphasis on bravery and friendship, but he played with the intention of making friends with the rich man.

"Raise an army for a thousand days, and use it for a while. We serve as soldiers and eat the emperor's rations. Isn't it for the emperor to put down the rebels in all directions? If we can put down the rebels as soon as possible, we can go home as soon as possible, right?" Shi Dayong thought more and more. feel bad.

Deng Ke sighed: "Brothers are dedicated to the country, the elder brother knows it, but now it is not up to us to decide, if the court says no to fight, then let's not fight."

"Brother, do you know why the imperial court does not allow troops to be dispatched?"

"Shandong Governor Xu Congzhi is dead."

"Which one is this?" Shi Dayong had never heard of Xu Congzhi.

Deng Ke said: "It was the former governor of Shandong, Yu Dacheng, who was escorted to Beijing, and the imperial court wanted him to be the governor."

"How did this person die?" The governor of Shandong died. This was a high official in the imperial court. Shi Dayong was slightly startled, "Did he die of illness?"

The governor of a province died, either from illness or from old age. Shi Dayong couldn't think of any other way to die. He couldn't have died in battle.If it really died in battle, it would be a big deal.

"That's not true. This Governor Xu is also a good man. He was hit by the rebel artillery when he was supervising the battle at the head of the city. He was seriously injured and died." Shi Dayong really did not expect that Governor Xu was indeed killed in battle. Yes, when Deng Ke said this, his expression was a little solemn and sad.

Wang Hong also sighed.

Died in battle?Shi Dayong became more and more confused now, and was very puzzled: "Didn't you say that you are recruiting? Why are the rebels still attacking Laizhou?"

"Can the rebels believe it?" Wang Hong glanced in the direction of the capital, and said with a "chuck": "The adults in the court will believe it."

Deng Ke said: "Once Xu Congzhi died, the pacification faction gained the upper hand again. Elder Wen Ge and the emperor wanted to fight, but now the court is overwhelmingly pacifying, and the emperor and Elder Wen Ge can't resist. The appeasement was still a secret a few days ago. Acting, but now it has become upright, and it is done in an open manner."

Hearing this, Shi Dayong jumped up against the case and said angrily: "The emperor wants to fight, the chief minister wants to fight, how dare the other officials say no to fight!"

"Brother probably doesn't know what's going on in the court?" Wang Hong was a little surprised by Shi Dayong's excitement. Your Liao Town is closer to the capital than Sichuan, so why don't you know the situation in the court?

Shi Dayong was stunned, not knowing what Wang Hong was referring to.

Seeing that he really didn't know, Wang Hong sighed and told him: "Let's put it this way, nine out of ten officials in the imperial court are members of the Donglin Party, and the former Chief Assistant Zhou Yanru is Donglin. People of the party. Whether it is the chief assistant, the officials of various ministries, or the words of the Dao, if it is not a member of the Donglin Party, you will never want to do a good job in this official, let alone get their support In short, in this imperial court, it is not the emperor who has the final say, but the Donglin Party. If the Donglin Party refuses to agree, the emperor and the chief assistant have nothing to do." [

"Now Donglin wants to appease Kong Youde, so" Deng Ke smiled wryly, "Elder Wen Ge is not a member of the Donglin Party, but because he is not a member of Donglin, it is useless for him to speak."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Dayong was so angry that he slapped his palm on the table again, cursing: "Donglin is ruining the country! With these gangs of treacherous ministers and thieves at the emperor's side, things in this world will be fine! I wish I could mention a group of elite soldiers to Qingjun's side!" , Cut these treacherous traitors under the court!"

When Shi Dayong said this, Deng Ke and Wang Hong were taken aback, they got up hurriedly, one looked out, and the other went to pull Shi Dayong.

"Brother, you can't say that. If someone hears it, it will be a great crime to punish the Nine Clans!"

As Deng Ke said, he pulled Shi Dayong who was excited to sit down again.

"This is what my brother said casually today, but we didn't hear it. In the future, you must never say this again. Was this said by a courtier? Even if the brother had good intentions, I hate Donglin and those people for being mistaken." State affairs, but it’s not up to us to take care of them. The ass decides the head, and we are just warriors who lead soldiers. The court has always ignored us. When we are needed, we will eat and drink. Immediately hit the corner. Speaking of you, brother, you are not bad, look at me, brother, alas, this is a fucking life!" Wang Hong said, thinking of being called in the past two years. Drink it, grandma doesn't hurt, and the days when grandma doesn't love, I can't help feeling sad.

After being told by the two of them, Shi Dayong also knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, he paused for a while, raised his head and asked the two of them: "You two brothers must be here for something?"

Wang Hong said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just that I haven't had any wine or meat these days, and my mouth has lost its taste, so I'll discuss it with my brothers, see if the three of us can collect some money and send someone to buy some wine and meat back?"

"Nearby counties have been plundered by the rebels, and the people don't even have food, so how can they sell wine and meat?"

Shi Dayong sent people to buy it earlier, but there were probably very few of them. The people he sent out said that they often went ten miles and eight villages without seeing anyone.There are some in the city, but they are pitifully rare, and they are also very expensive. After buying them twice, they only bought dozens of catties of meat, which is not enough for the soldiers to eat.In the end, I boiled a few pots of broth and evenly mixed the noodles.After this, Shi Dayong never sent anyone to buy meat.

But Wang Hong said affirmatively: "There are none here, but there are other places! Let's send people to Shandong. There haven't been many military disasters there. The past two years have been pretty good, and we should be able to buy them."

"Looking at the current situation, this battle can't be fought. Maybe it won't be fought until February or March next year. It's the Chinese New Year soon, and it shouldn't be too shabby. Brothers are in a foreign land to celebrate the New Year. There must be wine and meat. There is only one such a year. On New Year's Eve, you have to let the brothers eat and drink well. Brothers, don't you think so?" Deng Ke said.

Shi Dayong nodded. If Wang Hong had connections, he would naturally be willing to buy some wine and meat to come back for the New Year.

"Okay, let the two elder brothers decide this matter, it's up to the younger brother as much money as you want."

Deng Ke waved his hand and said: "Hey, how can I ask you to spend money, each of our families pays for it."

Wang Hong smiled embarrassingly, but didn't say anything.

But Shi Dayong insisted on paying the money for the wine and meat for them, but Deng Ke couldn't refuse, so he agreed.Wang Hongle had to say bluntly that when buying wine and meat, Shi Dayong must be the first to choose first, and the fat ones are full of Jinzhou's army.

Shi Dayong smiled and responded with a few words casually.Accompanied by him, Deng and Wang went to see the two thousand Sichuan soldiers who were training according to the requirements of the Jinzhou Army. After watching for a while, they left.Shi Dayong asked someone to take 3000 taels of silver for the two of them, and Wang Hong, with a big smile on his face, asked the soldiers to take them back immediately.

After sending King Deng and his entourage out of the camp, Shi Dayong couldn't help sighing, he didn't expect the emperor to be tougher than his subordinates, and instead of fighting this battle, he continued to appease, who knows when this damn thing will last!
