The ruthless emperor in the late Ming Dynasty forced Chongzhen to abdicate at the beginning

Chapter 64
Immediately, everyone surrounded the red lady and came to the state government hall.

Cao Huachun didn't leave either, but stayed behind as a supervisor.

But everyone understands that Cao Huachun's supervising army is mostly just to help Hong Niangzi subdue the towns.

But this is obviously redundant.

"Everyone, I would like to introduce you first. This is Li Dakai, the deputy commander-in-chief of Chizhou. After hearing that the capital was besieged, Mr. Li brought his family all the way to King Qin. , can be a model for all generals!"

After everyone sat down, Hong Niangzi took the lead in introducing, obviously, Li Dakai, who had the least impression of this soldier and who arrived last, had the best impression among several general soldiers.

Everyone immediately stood up and greeted Li Dakai affectionately, expressing their admiration and attitude of wanting to learn from him.

Li Dakai also got up quickly, flattered and returned the salutes one by one, expressing that he didn't dare to do it.

All the people present here are well-known and well-known bosses, and he dare not offend them at all.

After everyone said hello, the red lady continued: "Mr. Li came in a hurry due to the long journey, and only brought more than a hundred servants. The meaning of this governor is that everyone gather some troops for him first, so that Well, Ben Du will give five thousand, and each of you will give one thousand, so it just makes up ten thousand, how about it?"

"Your servants will obey your mother's will!"

The five commanders didn't say anything, they didn't pay attention to a mere 1000 people, so there was no need to upset her for such a trivial matter.

But the five of them cursed in their hearts, this Li Dakai was just out of luck.

"Thank you madam!"

Li Dakai himself was so moved that he didn't know what to say, because he was still a little confused.

Next, Cao Huachun reported the enemy's situation and conveyed the strategic policy that Zhu Cihong could not stick to.

All the generals resolutely expressed their support for His Majesty's policy, they were really worried that the red lady would lead everyone to a decisive battle with the Tartars.

I'm finally relieved now.

Then the red lady asked everyone to go back and inform the whole army that everyone would be paid two taels of silver first, and the rest of the silver would be used as a reward.

After all the generals returned with the money, they all honestly handed out the money, and none of them dared to withhold the money.

One is that he is afraid of being caught by the red lady to make an example of others.

Second, everyone is not a fool.

At this time, you post less and others post truthfully. If you compare the two, what will your subordinates think?
There will definitely be resentment and dissatisfaction in my heart. They are all masters in winning people's hearts, so naturally they will not make such low-level mistakes, and it is not the time to embezzle military pay.

Nearly 30 people sent out more than 70 taels at once. It was the first time for all of them to receive their real salary, and they were very grateful to the newly appointed imperial concubine supervisor.

Everyone secretly thought that the imperial concubine and supervisor were different, and everyone also worked hard.

Especially the mid-level and high-level generals under the command of the town commanders all secretly made up their minds.

I am going to wait for the Tartars to come, to perform in front of the noble concubine, to try to be favored by her, and then to speak kindly or even recommend him to His Majesty.

As long as the imperial concubine is willing to recommend and support her, she can break away from working alone and enjoy the addiction of being a general, even if it is the lowest guerrilla general.

Then Li Dakai is the best example.

In such an atmosphere.

Liu Zeqing was better, but Wu Sangui and his brothers couldn't eat or sleep, and they were worried all day long.

"Second brother, what can we do from now on?"

"Your Majesty is really telling the truth. The second elder brother has made such great achievements, but he didn't appoint the second elder brother as the supervisor, but chose the red lady and made her a noble concubine. Isn't this a lie?"

"Hey! It seems that although His Majesty doesn't trust civil servants, he is also wary of our military generals becoming stronger. However, this move is really clever. His Majesty has such knowledge and skills at such an age. It seems that Daming is really going to be rejuvenated!"

Wu Sangui sighed, the awe of Zhu Cihong in his heart far surpassed that of Chongzhen, and the small thoughts in his heart were completely extinguished.

No matter who His Majesty sends to supervise the division, whether it is a civil servant or a public official, he is sure to join forces with all the generals to take him out.

But only this noble concubine and red lady who holds more than [-] soldiers and horses and countless money and food, he can't stand alone.

It seems absurd that His Majesty appoints Hong Niangzi as the supervisor and concubine, but it actually contains great wisdom.

First of all, Hong Niangzi's more than [-] horses will definitely become staunch supporters of the emperor and the court from now on.

Secondly, not only will the general soldiers of the towns not be jealous of the red lady, but they will compete to curry favor, and their subordinates will also compete to show their hard work.

In the end, when the Jiannu were defeated, the emperor would be able to use the hand of the red lady to directly control an army of 30. With Zhou Yuji's men and horses, which general would dare to obey and violate?Which civil servant dare not obey orders?
"Second brother, what are we discussing now? What are you talking about? Why don't you just..."

"To shut up!"

Wu Sangui knew what he was going to say, so he interrupted immediately, and then waved his hand.

"Don't worry, that red lady is not a petite person, otherwise we will be finished that day. As long as she doesn't get caught, she probably won't intentionally make things difficult for us."

"But, I can't stand being bewitched by that villain Gao Jie!"

"You're right!"

"Well, go and bring my Zhuiyun here and send it to her." Wu Sangui gritted his teeth for the last time.

"Second brother, Zhuiyun, you are usually reluctant to ride, why don't you change it?"

He has been thinking about this chasing cloud for a long time, but the second brother has been unwilling to give it to him, let alone ride it, and he is not allowed to touch it. Now he wants to give it to Hong Niangzi, and he is really reluctant to part with it.

"Look at your worthless appearance, isn't it just a horse? What are you reluctant to do? Go!"

Wu Sangui kicked over.

In fact, he was reluctant, but as long as he didn't want to rebel, he had to get the red lady's forgiveness.

Sure enough, when it was reported that Wu Sangui had come to ask for a visit with a gallant horse, Hong Niangzi rushed out of the city immediately.

"Your Majesty, this is a good horse of thousands of miles that I got before. Today I specially donated it to Your Majesty, and I hope your Majesty will accept it with a smile."

"A good horse, it really is a one-in-a-million horse. I'm afraid it's not worse than the legendary hard-earned BMW!"

The lady in red looked at this bay red horse with well-proportioned body length, slender limbs, shoulder-height war horse, her eyes were straightened, she stepped forward and stroked.

Seeing her reaction, Wu Sangui thought secretly.

He knew that this lady didn't like red clothes but armed forces, so she must also like war horses, so he explained: "My lady is right, this horse is called Chasing Cloud, and it is a rarity among the rare ones. It can travel thousands of miles a day, and cross rivers like Walking on flat ground is no worse than a hard-earned BMW, and its endurance is even better."

"Oh, really?"

"Wu Hou has a heart, I will accept the horse, and the previous things will be written off!"

The red lady couldn't help herself, she turned over and jumped onto the horse, then waved her hand boldly.

She knew that she wouldn't accept him, and Wu Sangui would worry that she would take care of him even when he went to sleep at night. After a long time, he would have two minds, not to mention this bay red horse, which was really irresistible.

"Mistress, be careful, this horse has a very strong temper..."

Wu Sangui felt at ease at last, and immediately reminded her nervously when she saw her being reckless.

If this falls, Gao Jie's son-in-law will definitely take the opportunity again to accuse himself of murdering the imperial concubine.

"It's okay!"

The red lady took the reins and asked him to step aside.

Maybe the horse was male, and Hong Niangzi struggled a little after riding it, then calmed down, and then under the control of Hong Niangzi, she rushed out like an arrow off the string.

It's really fast like the wind, like chasing the clouds and chasing the sun.

Liu Zeqing just happened to lead a tall horse to the gate of the city.

Looking at the red lady riding away and the Wu brothers standing at the gate of the city, how can they still not understand what's going on?

He was so angry that he jumped up and down, scolding Wu Sangui for being shameless, but he had no choice but to take the horse back, and then replaced it with a family heirloom sword to offer.

Seeing Wu Sangui and Liu Zeqing, one delivering horses and the other delivering knives, Huang Degong and Liu Liangzuo couldn't sit still even though they had no quarrel with Hong Niangzi.

In the end, they each found a precious gift to offer.

(Ask for a recommendation ticket, thank you!)
