Take a plane to the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 110 Wu Sangui Spits Blood
Jinzhou, located in the east of Ningyuan, is the gateway to Liaodong, and its strategic location is very important.It can be said that as long as the Ming army guards Jinzhou, it is tantamount to guarding the gate of Daming.

When Zhu Changyuan and his party entered Jinzhou City, the soldiers who encountered obstacles only needed to show their identification, and they passed quickly.This time is very different from being forced by Wu Sangui before.

It has been more than a month since Huang Taiji withdrew his troops from Jinzhou, and the destroyed city walls were also rebuilt by the Ming army.In the current Jinzhou City, there are not only the [-] defenders of the Ming Empire, but also the [-] Guanning cavalry brought by Wu Sangui from Shanhaiguan.The purpose is to defend Jinzhou to the death, fearing that Huang Taiji will go and return, and Jinzhou City will be lost again.

Fortunately, Huang Taiji has no plans to send troops to attack Jinzhou now, and all his energy has been spent on Phi Island.This made Wu Sangui, who was guarding in Jinzhou, relieved, but at the same time, he was also a little worried for Wu Yinglong.

Wu Sangui was well versed in the art of war and knew that Wu Yinglong had no chance of winning this time, but he would not just sit idly by. After all, he was his nephew, and Pidao was also the territory of the Ming Dynasty, so he still needed some support.

There was no need to send troops, and Wu Sangui didn't have any decent sailors under his command, so he had to send some military supplies to Wu Yinglong, and at the same time wrote a letter to Denglai Governor Yang Wenyue, asking him to support Pidao.

There are a lot of troubles and I don't have a clue, and suddenly heard a report from a subordinate, saying that Zhu Changyuan has entered the city, Wu Sangui frowned, and said: "Didn't I ask someone to get him to the capital? Why did you come to Jinzhou?" gone?"

The personal soldier asked: "The general sees him?"

"No!" Wu Sangui sternly refused, last time Zhu Changyuan was forced into a place where Liaodong had no place, now seeing him, do you want to apologize to him, just kidding.

However, he couldn't see him anymore, because Zhu Changyuan had already led the Polu all the way in.

"General Wu, I passed by Jinzhou to ask for an appointment on my next trip to Beijing. Why didn't I disappear? Anyway, I am also your subordinate!" Zhu Changyuan appeared leisurely in Wu Sangui's line of sight with Polu.

Wu Sangui's face was very dark, he looked at Zhu Changyuan and snorted coldly, and said: "Congratulations, my lord." Turning his head and putting the scroll in his hand on the table, he said to the soldiers beside him: "Please come in and drink tea, Lord Zhu. "

Zhu Changyuan raised his feet to enter the door, sat down on the chair opposite Wu Sangui without any politeness, smiled on his face, and said in his mouth: "I also want to congratulate the general, Jinzhou City has been lost and recovered, I am afraid that the general will soon supervise Ji Liao, right?"

After hearing Zhu Changyuan's words, Wu Sangui's face softened a little.Since Wu Aheng's death in battle, the court has not followed up, and it is not known who will be responsible for the job of governor of Jiliao.For this matter, he often went to Beijing for activities, but no one could vouch for him, because the candidate for the governor of Ji Liao had to be appointed by the emperor.

Zhu Changyuan took a cup of tea from the soldiers, sipped the tea carefully, but looked at Wu Sangui from time to time: This guy is obviously only in his twenties, but he is tall and mighty, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he looks like a soldier.

"Including adults, there is no alcohol in the army, so we can only use tea instead of alcohol."

"It's okay, I didn't come here to drink with you." Zhu Changyuan didn't care, and put the teacup gently on the table.

"So, the lord is looking for me for something else?" Wu Sangui frowned.

"If you don't have anything to do, go to the Three Treasures Hall. It's natural to find the general." Zhu Changyuan stood up from the chair, stretched his hand back, Polu handed over a scroll, Zhu Changyuan took it in his hand and slowly opened it, then handed it to Wu Sangui and said: "Before leaving In the near future, one point has to be explained. Our army has 3000 lieutenant officers and soldiers, which belonged to the control of the Liaodong General Army. Taking our Ming Dynasty as an example, the infantry was paid one tael per month, and the military salary in March totaled 9000 taels. When Shengjing was attacked, three thousand All the sergeants were killed in battle, and my Ming Dynasty also has regulations on the payment of silver for infantry, and the total amount of silver for soldiers is 9 taels. Please also pay the general!"

"Huh?" Wu Sangui took the roster and frowned deeply. He knew the soldiers under Zhu Changyuan. They first stationed at the Daling River, then robbed the treasure ship to get some soldiers, and then ran to the sea to fight. The pirates finally captured Shengjing, and everyone died for the country.

It stands to reason that these military salaries proposed by Zhu Changyuan are reasonable and should be given, but let alone that he has no money, even if he has money, he can't give it. Wouldn't it be in Zhu Changyuan's pocket if he paid it?

Do not admit it.

"My lord, it's a little exaggerated. As far as I know, when you were stationed at the Daling River, you had only 400 soldiers. How can you have [-] soldiers?"

"My lord, did you ask this question knowingly?" Zhu Changyuan had long expected that Wu Sangui would ask this question, and said, "Later, I subdued the pirates and the people on Zheng He's treasure ship, and naturally I got three thousand."

"What evidence is there?" Wu Sangui smiled darkly, thinking in his heart: Everyone is dead, even if you have a lot of tongue, you can't find any evidence after thinking about it.

"There is no evidence." What evidence can Zhu Changyuan come up with.

"Brother, don't make fun of me without evidence!" Wu Sangui laughed loudly, and put the scroll on the table.

Zhu Changyuan also smiled slightly, and said calmly: "There is a testimony!"

"Testimony." Wu Sangui was taken aback for a moment, then laughed again, "I'm afraid it's also unsubstantiated testimony!"

"Well, the testimony is unfounded!"

"You don't need to take it out if you don't have a basis." Wu Sangui chuckled, and stretched out his hand as a gesture of seeing off the guests.

Zhu Changyuan didn't care about him, and said: "I am a special witness. Although there is no basis, it can be concluded!"

"Tch, Mr. Zhu, please please, I advise you not to make fun of yourself here." Wu Sangui watched coldly, got up from the chair, and personally arranged the scroll and handed it to Zhu Changyuan, with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

Zhu Changyuan shook his head, stretched out his hand and took out a scroll from behind Polu, and said, "General Wu, it's better to read my testimony."

Wu Sangui didn't pick it up, so Zhu Changyuan slowly unfolded it himself, and recited it aloud: Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, the imperial edict said: I have heard that the famous emperors in ancient times have used national talents and cultivated pillars. The strong man restrained Jianlu to die, and he did a great job in recovering Jinzhou in the Ming Dynasty.

Wu Sangui didn't stand or sit after listening, his face turned livid, and he glanced at Zhu Changyuan dissatisfied.

"How is it? General Wu, can this testimony of His Majesty be used as a basis? Or do you have doubts about His Majesty?"

"Naturally, I don't dare to doubt Your Majesty!" Wu Sangui gritted his teeth, never expecting that Zhu Changyuan would take out the imperial decree as a testimony: This guy is so hateful that he even dared to use the imperial decree.

"Okay, since you admit it, give me the money! 9 taels of shirt silver, 9000 taels of salary silver, a total of 9000 taels of silver!" Zhu Changyuan sat down on the chair again, looking like a rascal.
