Blood from Daming

Chapter 584 Alliance
Lu Yaojin insisted on asking the Dongjiang army in Amin's Daishan to replace the Jurchen women. Seeing that his opinion was not accepted by Xue's army, Halgen had to go back and report to his master Amin, and then Halgen asked Lu Yaojin Asking to retreat to the left and right, Lu Yaojin froze for a moment and nodded in agreement, so Lu Yaojin's personal soldiers stepped forward, held Haergen down from head to toe, and collected it carefully. All the soldiers withdrew.

Haergen glanced at Zuo Ming, then turned to Lu Yaojin without saying a word, Lu Yaojin understood what Haergen meant, but Lu Yaojin felt that Zuo Ming was safer, and if there was any situation, there should be one more person to discuss, The most important thing is that although Zuo Ming obeys his command, his status is not much lower than his own, and he is from Xue Zhuang, a direct descendant of the young master's direct line. Lu Yaojin naturally treats Zuo Ming as a general of the same level.

Lu Yaojin said: "This is the general of my Xue family's army, Zuo Ming Zuo General, you must have heard of it, this general and Zuo General are in charge here, you have something to say, but you can say it."

Halgen was silent for a while and said: "My banner owner is willing to secretly stop fighting with your Xue family army."

Lu Yaojin's heart moved when he heard this, this Amin is only Nurhachi's nephew, and he has no right to inherit the Khan in Houjin, but Baylor of Amin's level, secretly making peace with Daming, this is a good thing for Daming and Xue's army. , Lu Yaojin felt that he was dreaming, grandma, the interior of this Jianlu is not monolithic.

Lu Yaojin said, "Hargen, tell me something specific."

Hargen said: "General Lu, General Zuo, my banner owner and Huang Taiji's family had a feud against their father. My father and brothers were all killed in the hands of Nurhachi. The tribe is dragged to the point of destruction, it is really the sinner of the Jurchen tribe, my banner owner and father Shu Erhaqi have always envied the style of Ming Dynasty, and always hoped to repair with Daming and form a brotherly alliance forever."

After hearing this, Lu Yaojin was still a little unreliable, so he said to Hargen: "If you have anything to say, Amin, the banner leader, just say it."

Halgen thought that General Lu didn't understand, so he also came up and said straight-forward: "General Lu, what the banner owner means is that Xue's army and our Xianglan Banner are not going to fight, and I hope that Xue's army can support them when necessary." Xianglan Banner, one day Xianglan Banner has the right to speak in Jin Kingdom, and it will definitely form diplomatic relations with the Xue family army forever."

After hearing this, Lu Yaojin said: "Thank you, Banner Master Amin, for your kindness. My Xue family army is not a warlike army. As long as your Xianglan Banner doesn't take the initiative to attack Daming and North Korea, the Xue family army will not use weapons against Xianglan Banner. "

Halgen said: "General Lu, my banner owner hopes to get the support of Xue's army."

Lu Yaojin said: "Hargen, the status of the Xue family army in the Ming court is not high. For such a matter, you should go to Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Liaodong, or this general to express your sincerity to the court on behalf of your banner owner."

Halgen hurriedly said: "General Lu, the Banner Master of my family only wants to contact your Xue family army. The others, including the Ming court, don't trust them at all."

Lu Yaojin said: "Hargen, what you said is too big. This general can't be the master. I need to ask my master for instructions. If my master is interested, I will arrange someone to discuss it with Amin in detail."

Halgen replied: "Everything is arranged by General Lu."

Lu Yaojin asked Haergen to go back and tell Amin, and then he would report to the Patriarch, and then contact Amin according to the Patriarch's wishes, or ask Haergen to tell Amin.I hope that Amin will exchange Dongjiang army soldiers for the Jurchen women in the hands of Xue's army, and then let the soldiers send Hargen to Wu Dahai, and send Haergen back to the blue flag on the west bank of the Yalu River at night.

After Haergen left, Zuo Ming asked Lu Yaojin, "Brother, this Amin is also planning to fall to us. I don't know if this situation is reliable."

Lu Yaojin smiled and said: "It doesn't matter that his Jianlu is ever-changing and we will stay the same, but if Jianlu Baylor like Amin seeks the cooperation of our Xue family army, it is not up to our brothers to decide, let's wait for the young master to make up his mind. "

Zuo Ming was overjoyed: "Brother, if the young master strategizes properly, and with the help of the North Korean army, and Amin cooperates with the outside world, it is not impossible to destroy the Jian captives."

Lu Yaojin smiled wryly and said: "Xiao Mingzi, things are not so simple. Even if Huang Taiji is down, Amin is not a good person to come to power. If our Xue family army can wipe out Jianlu, the imperial court will immediately turn around and deal with our Xue family army. This game of chess is very complicated, and those of us who lead troops to fight are not able to handle it well."

Zuo Ming sighed and said, "Young Master, too. Instead of fighting in Beijing, he went to fight Taiwan. If we procrastinate like this, we will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey."

Lu Yaojin said: "Zuo Ming, what nonsense are you talking about? What is the identity of the young master? How can the people of Ming Dynasty be plunged into dire straits because of the brother's quarrel? .”

In the next few days, there was no movement in Jianlu's bordered red flags, Zhenghong flags, and bordered blue flags. At the end of June, Halgen contacted Shanglu to ask for gold, and Amin sent the five hundred soldiers of the Dongjiang Army in Dabeile Daishan's hands. After getting it with the civilian husband, Lu Yaojin agreed to the exchange. In the final exchange, Lu Yaojin generously released the seven hundred Jurchen women, which was regarded as a return of kindness to Amin, and Amin also understood Lu Yaojin's kindness. , In this way, the pursuit of Jianlu, Xue Jiajun, and North Korean troops stabilized.

The Second Fleet led by Wu Yang arrived at Changtu Island on the second day of July. In addition to leaving more than 4 furs, more than 300 catties of Liao ginseng, 10 taels of gold and silver, and the wounded and sick, the remaining [-] cattle, sheep, mules and horses were left behind. With two thousand Mongolian and Liao people women, after replenishing vegetables and fresh water on Changtu Island, they led the second fleet to escort the Xue family and the Mancijia fleet to Taiwan.

Hangzhou City welcomes back the merchant fleet to North Korea in June. This time, Haizhou merchants and officials have made a fortune. Yan Sanniang has become the God of Wealth of Hangzhou people. She has seen the strength of the Xue family in North Korea. The right to speak, the places where Hangzhou businessmen run the most frequently are not government offices or temples, but Yan Sanniang's Yan Mansion to give favors and gifts.

The biggest beneficiary of Hangzhou City is Pan Ruzhen, the political envoy of Zhejiang Chengxuan. Disgraced, Pan Ruzhen knew his soldiers well-known in court, and even the cabinet, which had always regarded itself highly, asked Pan Ruzhen in Hangzhou, Zhejiang for advice.

Pan Ruzhen is a civil servant, he is good at governing the civil affairs of a place, or reciting poems and painting. It is really embarrassing for him to give advice to the imperial court on military and state affairs. Fortunately, Pan Ruzhen has Yan Sanniang as a senior counselor, so Pan Ruzhen naturally asks for advice Yan Sanniang, according to the information she got, told Pan Ruzhen that Ming Dynasty must win the battle of Ningjin, the key is to get the support of Mao Wenlong Department of Dongjiang Army and North Korea.

Pan Ruzhen wrote "The General Situation of Military Affairs in Liaodong" written by Pan Ruzhen to the emperor and the cabinet, which stated that the Ming army in Liaodong, Yu Jianlu, the Dongjiang army, and the Korean army played a multi-party game, and the method of the Liaodong Ming army's battle defense. Officials of the imperial court read Pan Ruzhen's "General Situation of Military Affairs in Liaodong" again. Pan Ruzhen's words were nine out of ten, and some officials in the court even doubted whether Pan Ruzhen was possessed by Zhuge Kongming.

Pan Ruzhen not only gained fame by relying on Yan Sanniang, but also made a fortune in the merchant fleet that came back from North Korea. The civil and military officials in Hangzhou who drank soup with Pan Ruzhen all gained a layer of fat. Yan Sanniang watched Pan Ruzhen was very keen on official fame and fortune, so he asked the North Sea Fleet to bring a letter to Pan Ruzhen to get some Tartar heads, flags, armor, and weapons for Pan Ruzhen.

On the second day of July, the Second Fleet led by Wu Yang arrived at Changtu Island, leaving behind more than 4 furs, more than 300 catties of Liao ginseng, 10 taels of gold and silver, and the sick and wounded. The remaining [-] cattle, sheep, mules and horses He and two thousand Mongolian and Liao people led the second fleet to escort the Xue family and the Mancijia fleet to Taiwan, and the Changtu Island fleet took part of the fur, Liao ginseng and The belongings that Yan Sanniang asked for were shipped to Hangzhou City.

Now the whole city of Hangzhou has become a sensation again, and the opportunity to make a fortune in Hangzhou city has come again. Liao ginseng is not unusual. After all, Hangzhou city is now full of high-quality Korean ginseng, but the fur is terrible. It comes from Liaodong Jurchen tartars The quality of the fur here is much better than that of Mongolia. This may be the reason why Jianlu's territory is more lush.

The most important thing is that in these furs, there are many rare tiger skins, bear skins, and mink skins. These are the best products that Hangzhou merchants have rarely seen before. Think about it, these treasures are the bottom of the Jurchen's box , Basically, it is used for tribute or for weddings and funerals. Generally, it is not easy to sell it. It is copied by Xue Jiajun's family.

Unlike the merchants and people in Hangzhou City who were about to make another fortune, Governor Pan Ruzhen is now concerned about the credits sent by Yan Sanniang. On the other side, there are more than 200 real Tartar heads, more than 200 flags, more than [-] pairs of armor, [-] weapons, bows and crossbows, and ten boxes of trophies, all of which are fur, old ginseng, gold and silver wares. And some Dongzhu of different sizes.

Now, all the officials in Zhejiang Chengxuan's political department are red-eyed, hoping that Mr. Pan Ruzhen will give him a share of the credit, but Pan Ruzhen said that there are still some credits, and he will be punished by the Procuratorate, the Commander's Department, and the Hangzhou government. Yan Sanniang's Dongchang and Jinyiwei must not be left out, and the officials in Chengxuan's political department suddenly became much weaker.
