Back to the end of Ming Dynasty to be a warlord

Chapter 280 Chaos
Unexpectedly, it went so smoothly, and Yang Chao was also quite happy. He drank a few more glasses at Yu Chengwu's place, and heard Yu Chengwu talk about his past demeanor. Fighting Zhang Xianzhong was his greatest contribution, but he also made a lot of contributions before that. , Even went to North Korea decades ago, it was a matter of resisting Japanese and aiding North Korea.

But at that time, Yu Chengwu was still a soldier, fighting for many years. When Zhang Xianzhong attacked Jiangnan, he was a general, and he was promoted to lieutenant general because of the official hat dyed red with the blood of Zhang Xianzhong's men.

Yu Chengwu's explanation of the battle formation and so on is not surprising, but there is a sentence that suits Yang Chao's appetite. He told Yang Chao that all formations are imaginary, and the most important thing is to dare to fight. Yang Chao is deeply impressed by this. I have experience, and I don’t want civil servants to admire the magic formation described in the book of war, but the fundamental purpose is to use the formation to reduce the chance of fighting in battle, just like they hope to solve the war with a strong city and cannons.

This is wrong from the starting point. In the final analysis, war is fought with the spirit of blood and courage. Even if you don't dare to fight hand-to-hand with bayonets, you can't win this battle.

I don't know how much wine he drank, anyway, when Yang Chao woke up, he had already returned to his barracks, Yu Jiye sent him back, and he stayed by his side to serve him.

Yu Jiye said that his father told him to follow Yang Chao from now on.

Speaking of which, Yu Jiye is also a general manager. If his father continues to be the deputy general, it will be no problem for Yu Jiye to be promoted to a thousand in two years. Yu Chengwu probably thinks so, so he has been desperately relying on this position for the past few years. Unexpectedly, he valued Yang Chao more, and would rather exchange the future for his son to follow Yang Chao and be taken care of by Yang Chao.

"Jiye, I told Lord Yu yesterday that you follow me not to let you enjoy wealth and honor. When it's time to fight, I won't treat you differently. You probably don't know, this time I'm going to sea In the state, the most casualties were my soldiers, [-] people went, only [-] people came back."

Yu Jiye said enthusiastically: "Father, don't worry. The child is not a coward. Dad, you probably don't know that the child is a martial artist. He is skilled in martial arts. I dare not say anything else. In this water camp, hehe, the child wants to be the second." .Oh, of course, compared with you, Dad, it’s a thousand miles away.”

Yang Chao was very uncomfortable, it was the cry, but he could only endure it.

But he really never heard Yu Chengwu mention that his son is still a martial artist, but judging by Yu Chengwu's character, his son should have no problem practicing martial arts since he was a child. It's just so-so.

"Okay, follow me in the future, learn more and do more. And don't be afraid of this flattery, I'm not worth mentioning."

Yang Chao is very self-aware, he knows his own abilities, and he is definitely not enough to compete with a martial artist.

"By the way, Dad, when you were asleep, someone came to post. It was an adult from Jinyiwei, please go to Jinchai Tower for a banquet!"

Yang Chao hummed, Jin Yiwei's, could it be Feng Kezong, I have to say that I really have to settle accounts with Feng Kezong.

Before Yang Chao left, he told Feng Kezong to help clean up Xu Zhongxiao, but he didn't expect that not only did he not clean up, it is said that Xu Zhongxiao is now Feng Kezong's confidant, and he is very arrogant in the south of Nanjing, and his arrogance is even worse than before. And, it's just that they haven't dared to bully the Yang family yet, but it's always a hidden danger.

"Okay, let's go!"

It was indeed Feng Kezong, it was written on the invitation.

Jinchai Building is Yang Chao's own territory, and he also brought his newly adopted godson Yu Jiye with him to let him learn more. It is said that this boy had been in the military camp with his father before, either practicing martial arts or farming, he was just a bumpkin.

But now that the military is on holiday, they can only take him with them.

After Feng Kezong saw Yang Chao, he wished he could nod his head to the ground.

Yang Chao smiled and went into the private room with him, saying that this was Yang Chao's first visit to Jinchai Tower since he came back, so he called Kang Hui to sit with him, and asked about the situation of Jinchai Tower by the way.

"Master Feng, please stay safe."

Yang Chao's words were a little weird, which made Feng Kezong break out in a cold sweat immediately.

Feng Kezong hurriedly said: "Master Yang, please don't say that, the villain is weak."

Yang Chao said with a smile: "Master Feng is too flattering. I can't protect myself now, and I have to rely on Master Feng in the future."

Feng Kezong smiled coquettishly: "Master Yang is joking, joking."

Yang Chao suddenly snorted coldly: "Joke! I don't have the leisure to joke with you. I heard that you and Xu Zhongxiao are very hot."

Feng Kezong wiped off his cold sweat undisguisedly, swallowed and said, "Master Yang must have misunderstood the slander, the officer did have a lot of contact with that Xu Zhongxiao, but it was to find evidence of his crime, absolutely no other meaning. "

Yang Chao snorted: "Then Mr. Feng has found evidence of the crime."

Feng Kezong nodded and said: "It's almost there, it depends on when Lord Yang plans to do it."

Yang Chao said casually, "It's up to you."

Today, Yang Chao doesn't need to care about characters like Xu Zhongxiao anymore, he just dismisses them casually, just to remove a hidden danger, and he doesn't need to be too concerned, so much that he seems to have no confidence.

Feng Kezong said: "Master Yang will allow the officials to deploy for two days, and the day after tomorrow will definitely take down Xu Zhongxiao, this thief, I have long wanted to get rid of him, but Master Yang has not been in Nanjing, and he has not asked you for instructions, nor will he." Dare to be your own master.”

Yang Chao couldn't help laughing. This Feng Kezong was obviously just waiting and watching. Last year, he had already prepared for a while. Xu Zhongxiao relied on Tian Wan. As long as his daughter is favored for a day, his status will not be shaken, so Feng Kezong didn't clean up Xu Zhongxiao immediately at that time.

The first time he planned to take action was when Concubine Tian Gui died of illness in the second half of the year, which meant Tian Wan's downfall. Originally, Feng Kezong had already planned to clean up Xu Zhongxiao, but Yang Chao suddenly went to King Qin on his back.

Feng Kezong was not optimistic about Yang Chao's safe return, so he reconciled with Xu Zhongxiao. After all, Xu Zhongxiao was the leader of Nanjing. At that time, Feng Kezong had just become the governor, and his seat had not yet been secured.

Now that Yang Chao is back, Feng Kezong felt that he had to choose a side immediately. He would not dare to stand against Yang Chao if he was killed. Therefore, he decided to clean up Xu Zhongxiao. As for the pit, Xu Zhongxiao had already buried it. Can be filled with soil at any time.

Yang Chao suddenly said: "Master Feng, why don't you wait and see for a few more days?"

Feng Kezong was taken aback by Yang Chao's words: "What did Master Yang say, I really don't understand what the officials are saying."

He actually knew about Yang Chao's impeachment, but Feng Kezong had developed an unforgettable fear of Yang Chao when he was making a fuss about Yang Chao. It's not fair, Yang Chao can break out even in a dead place like Haizhou. Not only can he break out, but he can also cut down [-] captive soldiers one by one. With this method, Feng Kezong has no reason to trust Yang Chao. , even if the emperor wants to kill Yang Chao, Feng Kezong is willing to put the treasure on Yang Chao.

When Yang Chao was active in Nanjing, the court was also full of turmoil.

Shi Kefa was really interesting. He fulfilled his promise to Yang Chao, and wrote to the emperor to explain what happened in Haizhou. At the same time, he said frankly that he was the one who sent Yang Chao to Haizhou for rescue. I am willing to bear it together, and at the same time resign to the emperor, expressing my responsibility.

Shi Kefa's trick was too ruthless, he went into battle shirtless and tied with Yang Chao.

But one advantage of his doing this is that Yang Chao's credit must be tied to his name, so Zhou Yanru will not be able to get it.

As a result, the Zhou faction and the Zhou faction stopped mentioning the matter at the same time, as if the Haizhou victory had never happened, and everyone tacitly suppressed the matter at the same time.

The majestic governor of water transportation is all shirtless, and it is hard for others to say anything, otherwise, if Shi Kefa is forced to go to any side, it will be a big blow to the other side, because Shi Kefa is not only in a high position, but also has a good official voice , although his political achievements are mediocre, but this man's virtue is indeed a model, and the court, including the emperor, has such a view, so sometimes his weight is still very heavy.

At this time, the Anti-Zhou faction also changed its strategy and stopped attacking Zhou Yanru, and instead attacked the Minister of War, Wu Ra. The charge was that Wu Raw sat on the sidelines in Tongzhou and allowed the Tartars to plunder the people.

Concentrating firepower on a Minister of the Ministry of War, Wu Sheng was quickly dismissed.

On the contrary, Zhou Yanru entered the court with a high profile after the Tartars left the customs, and the imperial officials who impeached him were all dismissed by the emperor, and he was given platinum, jade clothes and other things as a show of favor.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhou Yanru has failed. Wu Ra was sitting in Tongzhou with him.

Sure enough, officials from Zhou Yanru's faction fell one after another. As the wings were cut off one by one, the courtiers' firepower finally began to focus on Zhou Yanru.

In the middle of the matter, the king impeached Zhou Yanru for being cunning and deceiving the emperor, and he lost his teacher and humiliated the country!

During the incident, Yuan Pengnian was sued for the crime of sealing up the border and wasting the governor.

In the matter, Hao Ji impeached Zhou Yanru for forming a party!

Forming a party, this one is enough. With many people in the Zhou party falling, the emperor already knew in his heart that Yanru formed a party to control the government, or he always knew it, but Zhou Yanru has always been able to suppress the situation. Zhou Yanru attacked him in groups, knowing that Zhou Yanru could no longer help him stabilize the government, so there was no need to keep it.

Obviously, he will be dismissed from office and finally ordered to commit suicide.

As Zhou Yanru's son of a bitch, Wu Changshi, Emperor Chongzhen actually interrogated him in person and tortured him personally to extract a confession. The cell boss persuaded Wu Changshi that no emperor had ever interrogated him in person, but Chongzhen retorted that there had never been a traitor. The black gauze cap was cracked.

In the end, Wu Changshi was ordered to be hacked to pieces, and all his family property was confiscated, which can be regarded as allowing Zhang Pu to rest in peace.

At this time in Liaodong, after more than a month of trekking, Abatai finally led his army back to Liaodong.
