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

Chapter 80
As soon as Hong Niangzi returned to Tongzhou, she called Wu Sangui and Huang Degong over, and said directly.

"Both of you, the governor will not hide from you that there is not much food and grass in the camp, and it can last for two months at most, and His Majesty has no food and grass to allocate any more. If the stalemate continues, our army will undoubtedly be defeated!"

"what?"

Both of them were shocked when they heard this.

The army must not be without food for a day, this is not just talking, although it can last for another two months, but now even a fool can see Jiannu's abacus.

What if two months later, there is no food and grass to send 30 troops?
Only take the initiative to attack, but this is almost exactly the same as the Songjin battle.

Thinking of this, Wu Sangui's heart immediately sank.

"Now our army has only two options. Either take the initiative and fight to the death with the Tartars, but the opponent is waiting for work. There are as many as 15 cavalry alone, and the chances of winning are extremely low.

So there was no choice but to choose another way. After the discussion between the governor and His Majesty, it was decided to send an elite group to attack Shanhaiguan by sea. "

After the red lady finished speaking, she stared straight at Wu Sangui: "Marquis Wu, this heavy burden belongs to you, are you willing to attack Shanhaiguan?"

"This... Your Majesty, it is my duty to serve the country, but my subordinates are all cavalry, and I am not good at water. I am afraid that I will fail the great trust of my Majesty and Your Majesty!"

While Wu Sangui was shocked, he was also furious and yelled at him. When he was to be used, it was Marquis Wu, and when he was not to be used, it was Wu Sangui.

What's more, this kind of thing is absolutely close to death, and the devil is willing to go, but among the generals, he is the most familiar with Shanhaiguan, so he must not be able to refuse directly.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have access to water. At that time, the governor will send the Dengzhou navy to Tianjin Wei to meet them. Wuhou's [-] family members will dismount and fight on foot. They will also be able to fight ten with one. The governor believes that Wuhou will be successful."

The red lady waved her hand, not giving him a chance to shirk.

"Your Majesty, even though this is the case, the Tartars will definitely keep heavy troops in Shanhaiguan, and take strict precautions. I'm afraid it will be difficult to succeed with only three thousand servants."

"Naturally, the governor will ask Mr. Huang to choose another seven thousand brave men to assist you. Mr. Huang, are you willing to go with Marquis Wu?"

"It's my duty to live up to your majesty and empress' trust!" Huang Degong knelt down on one knee without hesitation.

Seeing the eyes of the red lady, Wu Sangui had no choice but to bite the bullet and knelt down on one knee and replied: "With the trust of His Majesty and Your Majesty, even if I am smashed to pieces, I will definitely take Shanhaiguan!"

"Okay! Marquis Wu really lives up to his reputation of loyalty and bravery. If this happens, who in Ming Dynasty will not know Marquis Wu's name from now on?"

"It's not too late, let's set off tonight, Wu Hou can go back to prepare first, and gather at the pier at dusk."

"Yes, I retire!"

After Wu Sangui left, Huang Degong was about to leave and go back to prepare, but was stopped by the red lady.

"Mr. Huang, this sneak attack is related to the destiny of our Ming Dynasty, and there is no room for loss. If Wu Sangui does his best at that time, you will help him wholeheartedly. If he has another heart..."

Speaking of this, he took out a token and a secret decree from his bosom, and continued: "You take out this gold medal and the secret decree and kill him directly to seize the military power, and there will be someone among his three thousand family members Respond to you."

She originally planned to send Li Dakai there, but although Li Dakai is loyal and brave, he is upright, and I am afraid that he will not be Wu Sangui's opponent by then.

And this Huang Degong is mature and prudent, and he is also considered loyal to the court, which happens to be able to defeat Wu Sangui.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Huang Degong accepted the gold medal and the secret decree with a serious face, and then knelt down to worship, not surprised.

It is normal for the imperial concubine not to trust Wu Sangui, but if she trusts him completely and does not hold back, then it is abnormal.

But here Wu Sangui has already returned to the camp, and has no idea that Hong Niangzi sent Huang Degong to monitor him.

"Second brother, what's the matter?"

"What's the big deal, won't your mother...?"

Seeing that the second brother's face was so dark that it was the bottom of the pot, Wu Sanfu was also taken aback, and asked hastily.

"Well, this time I was tricked by that bitch."

Wu Sangui took a sip of tea, slammed the bowl on the ground, and explained to him.

"what?"

"Second brother, isn't she forcing you to death? Why don't you accept such an errand?"

"No?"

"You said it lightly, do you think the second brother will come back if you don't pick me up?" Wu Sangui gave him a white look.

"Second brother, this sneak attack on Shanhaiguan is too dangerous. If there is a bad one, you have to explain everything. I think we just turned the mother against it. Didn't the third brother's letter say..."

Wu Sanfu looked around, then whispered.

"Fourth brother, you are too young. Gao Jie is on the left of our camp, and Liu Zeqing is on the right. Without the order of that girl, as long as we dare to gather troops without authorization, a 10,000+ army will pounce on us in the next moment. We may even rush There is no chance of leaving the camp.”

Wu Sangui shook his head, sighed and said.

Don't say you can't escape, even if you can escape, Lao Die and Yuan Yuan are still in the capital.

"Damn, that girl usually speaks nicely, but she is so insidious in secret. So she has been guarding against us."

Wu Sanfu thought about it, it seemed that this was really the case, and couldn't help but curse.

"Then what should we do? Is it possible that the second brother really wants to go?"

"What can I do if I don't go?"

"Besides, although it is a little more dangerous, if the Dengzhou Navy can really send us to Shanhaiguan, there is still a lot to do."

"And once it succeeds, I will no longer have to be afraid of that girl from now on. Even if His Majesty wants to kill me, I have to take care of it."

At the end of Wu Sangui's words, there was a bright light in his eyes.

"But second brother, now that you're gone, I'm worried that that girl will have ideas about our cavalry?"

Wu Sanfu was a little apprehensive.

Hong Niangzi, Liu Zeqing, Gao Jie and others are all human beings, even the second elder brother can only barely parry, let alone him, and they will have to be played to death by them.

"Don't worry about this. I went through life and death for Daming. If she dares to do such a thing behind her back, won't everyone be chilled? How can she convince the public?"

Wu Sangui waved his hand, he was not worried about this.

Then he gave him some instructions to pay attention to, and then took the three thousand family members to the pier.

At this time, on the pier, seven thousand elites had assembled, a small half of them were Huang Degong's own subordinates, and the rest were all Hong Niangzi's people.

Each of these 7000 people has armor. In addition to carrying dry food for ten days, each person who can shoot arrows also carries a bow.

With 1 people standing there, the fierce aura emanating from their bodies may make the recruits' legs weak when they see it.

"Brothers, this mission is related to the fate of our Ming Dynasty, and your names and places of origin have all been recorded in the book.

If the task is successfully completed this time, everyone will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver, promoted to a higher level, and given a hundred acres of fertile land.

Even if you are killed or injured in battle, the governor will give these rewards to your relatives, this is His Majesty's own promise.

These wines were supposed to be reserved for the celebrations after defeating the Tartars, but now the governor is using them to practice for you personally! "

The red lady stood on the stage and raised a booklet and said loudly, and then pointed to the wine jars piled up on one side.

Immediately, 1 female soldiers began to hand out bowls to pour wine. After pouring, each of the [-] soldiers held a bowl full of wine.

Only then did Hong Niang pick up a bowl of wine on the table, held it up high, and said loudly: "This Governor represents His Majesty, and I would like to ask all brothers here!"

After finishing speaking, he bowed down, drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp, and then threw the bowl heavily on the ground.

The 1 people also blushed from the stimulation, drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp, and threw the bowl heavily on the ground.

Then Qiqi knelt down on one knee and shouted: "We are willing to serve your majesty, and my mother will go through fire and water, and I will die!"

Immediately, 1 people began to board the ship, and there were more than 200 large and small ships. After all boarded, they went southeast along the canal in the dark.

In order to prevent the news from leaking, Hong Niangzi dispatched a large number of Ye Bu Shou in advance to drive out all the tartar sentries lurking on the north bank of the canal.
