Chapter 211
When Jiang Chuan told Liu Ji and the three generals Ran Wu about his decision to ask Datong to see Li Yongnian, before Liu Ji made a statement, the three generals Ran Wu clearly expressed their opposition.

"My lord, Li Yongnian, the chief soldier of Datong, is not clear about his attitude. If he is not good to the lord, he will be in trouble at that time." Ran Wu said first.

"That's right, my lord, if Li Yongnian angers my lord because we took nearly [-] Ming army prisoners, it will be dangerous." Bai Shan continued.

"That is, my lord, if a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, my lord should not take risks easily. If my lord wants the Datong City, Shanjia is willing to lead my troops to fight it down."

The three of them had the same attitude, blocking Jiang Chuan so much that he didn't know what to say.

He knew that the three of them were genuinely worried about him, so he could only smile and turned his attention to Liu Ji.

Liu Ji stroked his three strands of long beard and said with a smile: "The three generals are utterly loyal to the lord, and Liu Ji deeply admires them. It's just that Liu Ji thinks that the lord's trip to Datong is not dangerous."

The three of them all looked at Liu Ji, with a little anger in their eyes, obviously disapproving of Liu Ji's words.

"You three don't make mistakes, and listen to the military division." Jiang Chuan waved his hand.

"There are three reasons why Ji thinks that Li Yongnian won't do harm to the lord. First, he has no motive to do harm to the lord. Speaking of the past, the lord wiped out the Tartar artillery last time, and attacked Liaoyang City by surprise, helping Datong break the siege In danger, Li Yongnian's official position and head were saved. From this point of view, he owes the lord.

Secondly, after Yuan Chonghuan supervised Datong, Li Yongnian became a member of Yuan Chonghuan's subordinates who obeyed orders from the top leader.Moreover, Yuan Chonghuan only trusts Cao Bianjiao and Hong Chengchou. This is undoubtedly a kind of exile and humiliation for Li Yongnian who has led the Datong frontier army for many years. How can he bear it?If the lord hadn't driven Yuan Chonghuan away, how could he, Li Yongnian, be able to stand out again?This is the second favor he owes the lord. "

"Secondly, he has no reason or excuse to be unfavorable to the lord. Now the lord has become the Marquis of Wu'an and Liaonan Commander-in-Chief appointed by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. The imperial decree says that Li Yongnian should cooperate with the lord to quell Liaodong. So since everyone is from the Ming Dynasty My lord, the lord has a higher title than him. He has never risked the world's disgrace to harm the lord. Unless he wants to rebel, but Li Yongnian has been guarding the border for many years. opposite."

The third and most important reason is that Li Yongnian has no guts to do harm to the lord.My lord has defeated the Tartars several times, and also defeated Yuan Chonghuan, which has proved the strength of our Jiang family army.It is impossible for Li Yongnian not to understand this point, the frontier army under him is no match for our Jiang family army at all.Therefore, it is even more impossible to take the risk of Datong City being trampled by our army to be unfavorable to the lord. "

"Therefore, I think my lord's trip to Datong will be safe and sound." Liu Ji summed up his statement with a light smile on his beard.

"What the military adviser said is very much in line with my wishes, so you three don't worry about me." Jiang Chuan took the conversation and said to Ran Wu and the others.

"Since Li Yongnian wanted to meet the lord, why didn't he take the initiative to come to Guzhong, but asked the lord to go to Datong? How can this be explained?" Bai Shan still asked doubts.

"Let me explain this question. The reason is very simple. The current situation is that we are strong and Li Yongnian is weak. We want to draw Li Yongnian into our camp. I will go to Datong to show our sincerity. If I refuse , but let Li Yongnian come to the valley, Li Yongnian has always been cautious, he will not dare to come, but he will be wary and suspicious of us. In this way, it will be difficult to win over this person in the future .”

Jiang Chuan analyzed in a deep voice.

After hearing the words, the three generals were silent for a while, then Ran Wu said, "If my lord insists on going to Datong, Ran Wu asks to lead an army to escort him."

Jiang Chuan shook his head and said, "If you lead the army with you, Li Yongnian may still think that we are going to fight Datong, and I am afraid that he will never dare to meet me again."

Ran Wu said again: "Then the general will lead the army to wait for the lord outside Datong City. If the lord does not appear safely within the planned time, the general will lead the army to attack the city and force Li Yongnian to hand over the lord."

Bai Shan and Shan Jia also said in unison: "General Ran Wu's plan is feasible, my lord, I am willing to go to protect my lord together."

Looking at the three upright generals, Jiang Chuan couldn't laugh or cry, so he took a deep breath and said solemnly: "I have made up my mind on this matter. I only need Bai Mu and a hundred iron guards to accompany me to Datong. The three of you Everyone, please stay in the valley, reorganize the captives, and train the recruits. Everything is very important. If you can’t complete the task as scheduled, you will be dealt with by military law!"

Seeing that Jiang Chuan had made up his mind, the three of them were not depressed, they stood up and clasped their fists together and said, "The final general will follow the Lord's order and will not let the Lord down!"

Jiang Chuan nodded, his expression slowed down and he said: "After I leave, all affairs in the valley will proceed as planned. If there is something difficult to decide, please follow the instructions of the military adviser. If the matter is too important to decide, you can use the secret of the Black Ice Platform Report it to me."

"The final general obeys the order, and will definitely cooperate with the military division with all his strength." The three accepted the order with fists clasped.

"My lord is trustworthy, and Ji will definitely live up to expectations!" Liu Ji also said seriously.

"Okay, let's go get busy. When I leave the valley, I don't need to send it. Keep this matter secret. I will come back before New Year's Eve." Jiang Chuan added.

"No! I'll wait for the lord's smooth return!" The four said in unison.

After the four left, Jiang Chuan ordered Bai Mu to go down to prepare, and selected a hundred iron guards to accompany him.This time I'm not going to fight, so I don't need to wear iron armor. I've replaced them with soft armor, covered with plain clothes.Tiewei's big swords were also replaced with light waist knives, paired with daggers and short swords.

After Bai Mu went down, Jiang Chuan explained to Qi Xuan again, telling her not to spread the news about her leaving the valley, and told the people below that she had lived in the barracks during this period.

When Qi Xuan heard that Jiang Chuan was going to Datong, she seemed a little bit reluctant, so she gave some advice, and then went to help Jiang Chuan pack his luggage, mainly a change of clothes and some books he had read these days, and even The bullfighting uniform given by the Ming emperor, the official seal of the Liaonan General Soldier, etc., I am afraid that it will be used at that time.

Seeing Qi Xuan's busy appearance, Jiang Chuan also felt very warm in his heart, feeling like a scene where a wife packs her husband's luggage for a long trip.

In the end, after packing, Jiang Chuan's luggage alone was as much as two large boxes.Fortunately, Ma Duo of the Jiang family army, these luggage did not cause a burden.

After breakfast, Jiang Chuan and his party of more than a hundred people quietly left the Erlong Valley and headed towards Datong City.

It is more than a hundred miles from Erlong Valley to Datong City.Jiang Chuan and his party were light cars and fast horses, and they arrived outside the west gate of Datong City before dark.

 The fifth update arrives.Finally got it done before zero o'clock, I can hardly open my eyes looking at the screen, I am glad I don't have to hurt myself (crying and laughing)
