stubborn thief

Chapter 298: Peace in the World
The news from the north disturbed the whole of Kangning, and the people in the seven counties across thousands of miles were panicked for a while.

Liu Chengzong set off from Dajian Furnace on April [-], day and night.

Zhang Tianlin advised him not to run in such a hurry, and let the messenger run back first, but he flatly refused.

He said: "Tang Qi is in Nangqian."

Zhang Tianlin said with a smile: "That impatient man with a knife can do everything without the army to investigate information by himself, so he must have gone north."

Tangqi is directly under the Marshal's Mansion, and the Lion Army has no such non-wartime emergency plan. Strictly speaking, there is no transfer order. Tangqi cannot leave the station without permission, but the officers of the Lion Army have great autonomy, and Liu Chengzong's control over the officers is also great. Not to the extent of a robot.

Dai Daozi is likely to be on his way to do what he should do as Zhang Tianlin said.

But Liu Chengzong shook his head and said with certainty: "This time he won't, because Cao Yao is in his pocket."

Zhang Tianlin didn't understand what this meant, and couldn't hold back Liu Chengzong, so he could only dispatch fifty veterans who were good at riding, and they galloped along the same road. Arrived in Nangchen on the evening of April 27.

Arriving at Nangqian, Zhang Tianlin was dumbfounded. Tang Qi was dispatched to the northernmost territory of Yushu Hundred Households in Nangqian. The magistrate's yamen dispatched horses and transported armaments, ready to head north at any time.

But Dai Daozi stayed in Nangqian obediently, and made all preparations. He only waited for Liu Chengzong's order to be delivered, and then started to investigate northward.

From the first time she saw Dai Daozi, Zhang Tianlin didn't care about rushing to Laodun along the way, and asked with her sore legs, "Why are you still here, didn't you go north?"

Dai Daozi folded his arms around his chest and said in a bad mood, "Ask General Cao, he won't let me go."

Immediately, Zhang Tianlin admired Liu Chengzong so much that he couldn't understand the reason, and he couldn't say a word with his eyes wide open.

Cao Yao was also extremely surprised by Liu Chengzong's arrival: "I haven't received this order, and the commander came here first? I think it will take four days."

Liu Chengzong only raised his thumb and pointed backwards, and then walked towards the manor with the torches on: "The orders are coming later, not as fast as me, Dai Daozi will set off now; Brother Cao, I will talk about the gossip later, let me talk about it first." Nangqian's situation and your preparations."

Dai Daozi took the order to leave, and he couldn't hold back long ago. If Cao Yao hadn't stopped him stubbornly, he would have crossed the Yellow River by now.

Liu Chengzong didn't say much about Tangqi. Zhang Tianlin's cavalry would take at least ten days to arrive at Nangqian.

Besides, this is the most standard system of the Lion Army. Dai Daozi will not blame Liu Chengzong for going to investigate on his own, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with lying in the nest.

He knew Cao Yao very well and knew why Cao Yao persuaded Dai Daozi to stay and wait for orders, so there was no need to spread the matter out.

Cao Yao didn't think there was any need to explain this matter, he persuaded Dai Daozi to stay not because of military discipline, moral values, military law and military discipline, life and death of others, victory or defeat in wars were all trivial matters in his eyes, as long as he lived.

Only being alive is a big deal, and the unity of the Marshal's Mansion directly affects whether everyone can live, so it's a big deal.

If he was the guard of Lin Cong, Dai Daozi who was stationed in Nangqian would like to go wherever he wanted, but as the highest ranking officer in Nangqian, he had to persuade Dai Daozi to obey Liu Chengzong's orders.

Unity, isn't it about being united around Liu Chengzong, and anything that challenges prestige is not unity.

Cao Yao walked and said, "Nangqian was the first to receive the news. I drew [-] artillerymen from Huang Xiao, who was guarding the fort, and called all the nobles of Nangqian to come and join us in the camp. Now, let's see what the commander-in-chief arranges, I suggest that they be organized into an army and sent to the north."

When Liu Chengzong first heard the name Huang Xiao, he thought it was a little strange, but after thinking about it, he realized that it was Huang Shengxiao who was stationed in Nangsuoqianmo Palace.

Cao Yao's order to recruit nobles made him smile, and he raised his hand and said, "Brother Cao is a godsend, my order to recruit nobles should be in the bag the day after tomorrow."

"What kind of predictor is this?" Cao Yao sighed, shook his head and said: "The war in the north, the army marching north, Kang Ning's people's hearts fluctuate, and the rebellion is certain. It's nothing more than a matter of size."

"I think so too, regardless of the situation in the north."

The two walked into the manor while talking. Liu Chengzong held on to the handrail of the ladder and stopped. The army goes back and feeds the lion soldiers."

As he said that, Liu Chengzong glanced at Cao Yao and said: "When the rebellion starts here, kill a group of aristocrats who are determined to carry out restoration, and the food problem of emigrating to Kangning will be solved, and the turbulent situation will be completely stabilized. Dazhi."

While talking, everyone climbed up to the third floor and entered the hall. Liu Chengzong sat on the couch in the hall, his sore legs and back were finally relieved, allowing him to squint his eyes comfortably. After everyone sat down, he continued to ask: " Don’t you know who the opponent is going to fight in the north?”

Cao Yao nodded, and then said: "There is some guesswork, it might be Chuck Rabbit."

Chuck Rabbit?
Liu Chengzong asked blankly, "Who is that?"

"Taiji from Daiqing has been running from Mobei to the border of Gansu for some years, and there are stories about them in Chen Qindai's secret language book."

Liu Chengzong closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, and suddenly realized, he opened his eyes suddenly, raised his hand and patted his thigh: "You are talking about that unlucky Khalkha, right?"

Chuck Rabbit, Chen Qindai told him.

But at the time it was just a joke, Liu Chengzong didn't take it to heart, so that he had to rely on Cao Yao's reminder to remember that there was such a person.

He was born in Mobei and was beaten by Mongolia in Mobei; he moved to the border and was beaten by Huihui from the border; he went to Gansu and was severely beaten by the Gansu frontier army.

His life experience is so fine, he has not died after tossing, he has a lot of experience in being beaten, and he is not easy to deal with.

Liu Chengzong raised his hand and scratched the back of his neck, puzzled: "He can't beat anyone, and he came to beat me. Is it because my Qinghai Marshal's Mansion has such a prestige outside the border, or is it because his mother eats too much sand when she is pregnant in October?" Is it? You must have made a mistake, where did you find out."

Cao Yao shook his head lightly: "It's more or less the same. Dai Qing said that he originally stationed in Haibei to scout the way for Chuoke Rabbit, but because we entered Haibei too quickly, he didn't even go back."

Liu Chengzong leaned back on the back of the chair, closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.

The leader of the Wara alliance made a large-scale eastward expedition, the governor of Yarkand Hami committed a crime, the tiger rabbit was full, and Huang Taiji got epilepsy, anyone can come... How could it be the Chuoke rabbit?

Liu Chengzong was very distressed. He really didn't want to accept the news that he was invaded by Chuoketu's troops.

"It's okay, Commander. Look at the virtues of being beaten wherever he goes. This person must not be very smart." Cao Yao said: "If it is him, it should not be difficult to deal with."

Liu Chengzong waved his hand: "I'm not afraid that he will be difficult to deal with. How can I say this? You can't just look at one side of everything. Let's say it as a joke. You can say that he is not smart and has been defeated repeatedly. But on the other hand, he has never surrendered. He is tough, and the soldiers who follow him are also good men."

A person who has been beaten every day since he was a child will most likely become a low self-esteem ghost who nods and bows when he sees everyone when he grows up, but a very small number of people will become very vicious, and he is even more cruel to others and himself.

Liu Chengzong's eyes also became fierce: "If the opponent is Chuck Rabbit, we can't lose a single battle. It will affect morale too much...Call Shi Li and ask about Chuck Rabbit's information."

A plan to conquer the border has already taken shape in Liu Chengzong's mind. If the opponent is really Chuck Rabbit, this battle will be of no benefit to him at all.

Defeat the Yeerqiang, which means that the Qinghai Marshal's Mansion is the number one separatist regime in the row; fighting back and forth with the four Oirats can establish the Qinghai Marshal's Mansion's dominance in the south of the Tianshan Mountains; One, can stop the offensive Qinghai Marshal's Mansion is the powerful Northwest power that shakes the Quartet.

What's the point of fighting a bare-boned bird like Chuck Rabbit?Winning a game is not considered a hero, and losing a game can throw people back to their hometown in Shaanxi.

In such a battle, just winning the Chuoke Rabbit will not be able to meet Liu Chengzong's needs.

Shili, the Turpan envoy living in Kangning Mansion, couldn't say anything meaningful to Chuoke Rabbit. They had fought with Chuoke Rabbit a lot, but in their impression they were a bunch of desert bandits, and they never knew much about it.

Liu Chengzong simply ignored the enemy and devoted himself to the affairs of staying behind in Kangning Mansion.

Cao Yao organized the battalion very quickly, thinking that he could take the new battalion to participate in the Northern Expedition, but was appointed by Liu Chengzong's pleading to be Kang Ning's deputy commander-in-chief as the general guarding Kang Ning's mansion and the prime minister of Kang Ning's military.

Even Luo Rucai and Li Laozheng were promoted, and both of them took the post of generals, one was stationed at Lin Cong and Luhuo; counterinsurgency war.

By the way, I gave Uncle Cai Zhongpan an official position as the general manager of the village, responsible for gathering immigrants in the west of Changhe.

The same is in Tuntian, Chengyun has experience in managing the military's supplies, so he was appointed by Liu Chengzong to a very high official position to assist Yang Dingrui in managing government affairs as a deputy magistrate of the Kangning Mansion.

Liu Chengzong believed that he left this civil and military team for the Kangning Mansion, which was enough to deal with anything that might happen in this land.

As for the army to be taken to the north, Liu Chengzong issued a target of [-] nobles for the seven counties. There are not so many nobles in this land, so the coverage of the recruitment is very wide. In the past, the nobles served as cavalry and heavy infantry All are nobles.

Of course, Liu Chengzong did not forget to make a wish. When he asked the counties to recruit soldiers, he told people that the soldiers who joined the army had enough food and fought bravely.

No matter whether it is a landed noble, a landless noble or a landless soldier, as long as they follow and fight, the past will be forgotten. Moreover, as long as Han and Mongolian are integrated, as long as they can speak Chinese, they will get the same chance of promotion if they make meritorious service in the army.

Those who can't speak Chinese have to remember the credit first, send it to study, and then get promoted after learning it.

Of course, this kind of treatment of painting cakes is a psychological comfort given after the strong-armed nobles, and the main purpose is to catch all the talents who are willing and capable of rebelling in the Kangning Mansion.

The composition of Liu Chengzong's troops in this Northern Expedition is three numbers, three, three, and four, that is, [-]% of the direct line troops, [-]% of the attached soldiers, and [-]% of the recruited nobles.

Soon, as the information from Huangyuan Station in the north further determined the size of the enemy army, the troops of Kangning Mansion also marched towards Nangqian from all over the place.

Zhang Tianlin was promoted to be a general, and as the chief general of the direct army this time, he commanded the [-] cavalry of the headquarters and the [-] artillery of Huang Shengxiao's department, and the [-] cavalry belonged to Gao Yingdeng. Cao Yao.

Immediately after, the reinforcements on foot and cavalry arrived from the west of Changhe.

The general is about to fight, and there are still many troops stationed on the west bank of the Dadu River. Mu Ya received the news and reciprocated, providing [-] cavalry and [-] heavy infantry as support, led by the steward's eldest son, Gas, to participate in this expedition.

It was really an expedition. For all the soldiers sent by Muya, including Gas, this dispatch was no less than a farewell to death. They counted eight lifetimes, and none of their ancestors traveled so far to fight.

Muya's dispatch of troops is really a huge support for the Marshal's Mansion. A few days after the arrival of the army led by Gas, the envoys from all counties brought good news...Muya is a living example. As long as he is loyal enough, Marshal Liu can Collaborated with nobles.

In return for this support, Gas was appointed Zuo Qian Zong Zong.

This Zuoying is very powerful, and Gas thought to himself that these are some fellow gods.

The participating general is General Basang, who is well-known in Xikang, but his name is unknown. The battalion headquarters is equipped with an army doctor, named Ngawang, who is dumb; A crazy woman who has done meritorious service.

There are also two hundred bosses, one old and one young, both named Qijia, who sent the bandits, Old Bingdan and Little Bingdan. It is said that both of them are tiger heroes. He hid on the snowy mountain from autumn to the end of winter. In the end, the little Bingdan was almost frozen to death, and the old Bingdan carried him down and surrendered.

At that time, the lion soldiers were all preparing to go to the New Year, and no one surrendered at all. In the end, the two of them ran to Nangqian and declared themselves home, and that was how they got along with each other.

The two Bingdan'er had learned Chinese for a whole spring, and Basang allowed them to write on the military flag as a reward.

Anyway, in their army, everything written on the military flag is the same, and they can be identified mainly by the color of the cloth. A monk Awang can't raise the cultural level of the whole camp, but there are more people who know how to write Chinese characters.

Now the two centurions are each holding a flag, except for the different colors, and on the Baizong flag flying the Fengma flag, there are three-sided characters written by the two of them in crooked ways.

The left book is placed on Ma Nanshan, the right book is long-term peace and order, and the top one says the world is peaceful.

Two generations of tiger heroes were sober after being frozen in the cold winter on the snowy mountains. The first Chinese sentence they learned was Long Live the Marshal, the second was Peace in the World, and the third was Bring me another tsampa.

Complete the unification of the destiny of the family and the country and the future of the individual.

In May, Ah Liucai, the older generation of Sichuan rebels, former general of the Daliang King, and general of the Right Battalion, arrived in Nangqian with a huge army mixed from the Yongning camp and the nobles, and all the troops were ready to go.

Without giving them much time to rest, this ostensibly northern expedition army was actually an armed escort brigade escorting more than a thousand nobles' heirs and two thousand nobles' supporters. March.

　good evening!
