Chapter 121 Liu Xingzuo Sanniang, the deputy general of the Dongjiang Army, looked at those warships and gunboats, slowly stopped the boats, the distance between the two sides became farther and farther, and she looked at Quan Xu with some puzzlement: "Xianggong, what's wrong with them!"
”"Because, they think we are allies!"
Jeon Wook held on to the fence on the deck, with a faint smile on his face, but he scolded MMP in his heart.A long time ago, Quan Xu read the novel of Wu Laowolf, a writer who started from the great god, and there was a setting in his book, and he remembered very clearly that in Wu Laowolf's book, Yuan Chonghuan and Wu's, Zu and other Liaodong generals established an interest group, and Yuan Chonghuan was the head of this group.Through trading, they sold grain, blades, armor, gunpowder, artillery, people, land, everything sold to Houjin.Quan Xu naturally knew that this was a novel, and he didn't believe it at first, so he tried to throw three bags of grain into the sheepskin raft with the words "grain" written on it.He didn't write whose grain belonged to, but only wrote the grain, and put the real grain.Sure enough, the Ming gunboats and battleships did not pursue.Why not pursue?
It was because the Ming army had naturally thought that this batch of grain was given to Houjin, and they were secretly releasing water.To say that Yuan Chonghuan has nothing to do with Houjin, Quan Xu can only hehe.For this reason, he also consulted a lot of information in later generations, starting from Shou Ningyuan, Yuan Chonghuan knew that at the critical moment, Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang Army was needed to take the opportunity to attack the heart of Houjin, and as a result, after he grasped the real power, he immediately took Mao Wenlong.Four months later, Huang Taiji took the elite of the Eight Banners, poured out of the nest, and directly entered the Guannei, and Yuan Chonghuan led more than 9,000 elites of the Guanning Army, following Huang Taiji all the way, he originally had the opportunity to snipe Huang Taiji in Jizhou and Tongzhou, but the strange thing is that no matter Yuan Chonghuan, he has never had a battle with more than 200 people with Houjin.Until now, Quan Xu understands that in addition to being a mouth cannon, Yuan Chonghuan is still very likely to be Litong Houjin, the biggest traitor in the Guanning Army.Quan Xu's face was a little gloomy, and he did not escape the joy of ascending to heaven at all.Sanniang thought that Quan Xu might be seasick, so she helped Quan Xu and said, "Xianggong, do you want to go into the cabin to rest?"
”"No!"
Quan Xu shook his head and said, "I'm fine, but I'm not feeling well!"
”Indeed, Jeon Wook was in a rather bad mood.He would rather believe that Yuan Chonghuan was incompetent because he was short-sighted and selfish and killed Mao Wenlong.Sure enough, there is never love for no reason in this world, and there is no hate for no reason.The biggest problem at the end of the Ming Dynasty was actually the system problem, the imperial court no longer had the strength to check and balance the generals of all parties, and also lacked effective control over the military towns from all walks of life, so that in the later period, small general soldiers like Zuo Liangyu had more than 300,000 troops, separating the localities, exploiting the people, and the court could not move him at all, and even the more rampant he was, the more the court had to appease him, and he wanted grain to be paid and paid, and he was promoted to the rank of knight, so he was afraid that he would rebel.In the fifth year of the Apocalypse, Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang Town had 150,000 troops, which were criticized by the logistics supply and the ministers in the court.In the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the number of employees was reduced to 110,000.By the time of the first year of Chongzhen's check, Dongjiang Town only retained 36,000 soldiers.But this is based on the number of soldiers used by the imperial court to provide military salaries, in other words, no matter how many soldiers you have, I will only provide you with 36,000 people for food and grass and military salaries.In fact, Mao Wenlong said bluntly many times that there were more than 100,000 soldiers on the island, and the military salary was not enough.On the one hand, it was unwilling to provide a huge amount of food and salary, and on the other hand, it was also out of distrust of Mao Wenlong, and Mao Wenlong did have a false behavior, so he had the intention of restricting his development, which led to the untimely supply of grain and grass for the soldiers and soldiers in Dongjiang Town, which laid a hidden danger for the later collapse of Dongjiang Town.Quan Xu let out a long sigh: "It's really a good death!"
The Ming Dynasty was not unjustly destroyed, but it just took pity on my country and my people!
”…… experienced the delay of Quanxu's sea ship incident, but actually saved Mao Wenlong's life.Yuan Chonghuan originally planned to take the opportunity to kill Mao Wenlong when the Marshal Mao Wenlong's mansion announced the decree.Liu Xingzuo is the key person who Yuan Chonghuan can kill Mao Wenlong.Yuan Chonghuan's Fubiao personal guards are Liu Xingzhi, and he is also Liu Xingzuo's fifth brother, and Liu Xingzuo is by Mao Wenlong's side and controls some of Mao Wenlong's personal guards.As long as Liu Xingzuo led his guards to ignore it, even if Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, he would not be able to leave Shuangdao, don't look at Yuan Chonghuan with thousands of Fubiao people, and enter Shuangdao.Compared with the tens of thousands of horses of the Dongjiang Army, it is really not enough to see.Mao Wenlong was the general who paid the most attention to firearms in the Ming Dynasty except for Qi Jiguang, and his Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, and Shang Kexi were all Mao Wenlong's adopted sons, and they were all generals who were good at using firearms.However, after Mao Wenlong was killed, the three of them surrendered to Houjin one after another, became hardcore traitors, were driven by Houjin (Qing), became the three of Sishun, and killed the Quartet, which seems to have become the "criminal evidence" of Mao Wenlong's death.However, as the three traitors of the adopted son, they are not weak in terms of troop command ability, let alone Mao Wenlong.Mao Wenlong was originally a smart man, when he saw that the Ming gunboats and warships encountered the "smuggling boats", he began to pursue, and the pursuit lasted only half an hour, seeing that the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and he could immediately enter the range of artillery.At this time, Yuan Chonghuan actually ordered to stop the pursuit, and Mao Wenlong ordered Liu Xingzuo to use the personal relationship of his fifth brother Liu Xingzhi to inquire about the situation.Soon, Liu Xingzuo reported to Mao Wenlong: "Marshal, it was Inspector Yuan who ordered the pursuit to be stopped, and the specific reason is unknown!"
”"The raft!""
It's grain, it's all good rice and wheat!"
Liu Xingzuo stretched out his hand and took out a handful of blue-white, round and plump rice from his arms.Mao Wenlong looked at the rice and sneered with a sneer: "This kind of rice can't be grown without a good paddy field!"
”"This ......
The end will not be clear!
”"When Ben Shuai was young in Hangzhou Mansion, he could grow such a land of colored rice, and the entire Hangzhou Mansion would not exceed 300,000 mu!"
Mao Wenlong's face became more and more heavy: "Xingzuo, you say, why didn't Inspector Yuan pursue this smuggling ship?"
”"This ......"
Mao Wenlong said indignantly: "I have long suspected that he is collaborating with the enemy, but there has been no evidence, and now, it is up to you whether you can get the evidence!"
”The two sides of "I ......" have deep grievances, and Mao Wenlong has been trying to find evidence of Yuan Chonghuan's illegality and try to bring down Yuan Chonghuan."
Xingzuo!""
The last general!""
You take the sailor and go to sea quietly, we are familiar with the land, the big sea ship can't run fast, we must catch up with them!""
What does the marshal mean ......"
Mao Wenlong sneered: "Many people have seen that the ship is heavily loaded, and it is loaded with grain, and it is from the direction of Dengzhou, this batch of grain ......"
"It is definitely not for our Dongjiang Army!"
”"Yes, if Ben Shuai expects it to be true, these grains must have been sent to the Tartars!"
Mao Wenlong said indignantly: "As long as Ben Shuai still has a breath, the Tartars don't want to get a grain from the sea!"
”The Dongjiang Army did not only have Shuangdao and Phi Dao, such as Guanglu Island, Ludao, Dachangshan Island, Xiaochangshan Island (not Changshan Island in Yantai, Shandong, but in Changhai County, Liaoning), Seri Island, Zhangziliu Island, Ocean Island, Wangjia Island, Zhimichuan Fort and so on.With hundreds of thousands of troops and millions of people, this is not an imaginary number, but a real number of people.Mao Wenlong has more than 140 large and small warships under his command, but most of them are small and dilapidated ships of three or four hundred materials, and this kind of small ship has an advantage, that is, speed.Liu Xingzuo was originally a native of Kaiyuan, Liaodong.Later, it was "plundered by Shiyi" to the Jurchen area of Jianzhou, when it was the thirty-third year of Wanli (1605).In Jianzhou, he was outstanding in talent and "clever and understanding", which won the respect and appreciation of Nurhachi, and was assigned to the red flag of the Great Belle Daishan.He participated in the Later Jin attack on the Ming Dynasty and the battle of Liaoshen.With the defeat of the enemy, chasing and fleeing and other merits, and quickly promoted, until the deputy general, he was ordered to govern Jinzhou, Fuzhou, Haizhou, Gaizhou, and the land of the four guards in the south.Later, Liu Xingzuo surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and was called Mao Wenlong's general, and he controlled more than forty percent of the forces of Mao Wenlong's sailors, in fact.Liu Xingzuo quietly attacked with the sailor, which made Liu Xingzhi, who was about to contact Liu Xingzuo, pounce.Without Liu Xingzuo, a general who controls the strength of the Dongjiang Army, as an internal response, Yuan Chonghuan really has no way to move Mao Wenlong.Although Liu Xingzuo and Liu Xingzhi are brothers of the same mother, the ideological concepts and motivations of the two are absolutely different, Liu Xingzhi is a person who wants to climb up, simply put, as long as he has milk, he is a mother, he doesn't care what is right or wrong.Liu Xingzuo is more pure, and his heart is towards Daming, otherwise, when he was in Houjin, he was already a high-ranking official, at least six levels higher than Fan Wencheng Fan traitor.He took refuge in Mao Wenlong and Yuan Keli, and what he asked for was not an official position and a lord, but the righteousness in his heart, however, this was the most lacking thing in the late Ming Dynasty.The navigation at the end of the Ming Dynasty was different from the navigation of later generations, and the later generations rarely met each other unless they encountered a route, but in the Ming Dynasty, they all sailed along the coastline.After a night's rest, Quan Xu slowly calmed down.Anger can't solve any problems, even if Yuan Chonghuan really kills Mao Wenlong, he will try his best to recruit the officers and soldiers of the Dongjiang Army, not the generals, and can buy the people and soldiers of the Dongjiang Army from these generals in the way of purchase.In this way, the three traitors who have no soldiers, even if they take refuge in Houjin, it will be difficult for them to do anything, and he can even get rid of the three traitors in advance."
Master, something is wrong!"
Jeon Wook hurriedly put on his clothes and came to the deck, where he watched more than a dozen centipede ships appear on the sea in front of him.Jeon Wook turned to look behind him, and was also surrounded by more than a dozen warships.The banner on the warship was Liu, the deputy general of Dongjiang Town.PS: Thank you very much for your support, this book has been ordered to break one thousand eight, high order two thousand three, for the great god, this is the result of hitting the street can no longer hit the street, however, this is the best result that Lao Cheng has achieved for many years, thank you very much, tears, continue to update, ask for a monthly pass, ask for a subscription.
