The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 152
When Hong Chengchou came here, he was full of vigor and confidence, but when he returned to Datong, he was in a mess.

He and his accompanying cavalry were led out of the valley blindfolded again, and they were not allowed to untie the blindfold until ten miles away.And the other party did not return their weapons to them.

The cavalrymen of the Ming army were very angry, but they could only swallow their anger under the cold eyes and cold blades of the opponent.

The centurion of the Jiang family army who sent them out of the valley said something that made Hong Chengchou want to vomit blood: "Those who leave with weapons in the hands of the Jiang family army can only be enemies, and they are also enemies who can win."

The implication is very clear, if you want to get back your weapons, then fight.

The more than 100 unarmed cavalrymen of the Ming army are no different from the more than 100 farmers when facing the heavily armed and murderous enemies.

Hong Chengchou held back his breath with great difficulty, and left with his people.

The centurion of the Jiang family army looked at their backs with cold eyes, and said in his heart: "If you don't know what is good or bad, I will let you walk back."

After Hong Chengchou left, Liu Ji came out from the next room.

"Have you heard the military division?" Jiang Chuan looked at him and sighed.

"Hehe, when is my lord going to give me the lightning?" Liu Ji laughed and sat down.

Of course, he won the bet between the two.

"At least let me hold a farewell ceremony with him." Jiang Chuan said helplessly.

Liu Ji laughed again, and Jiang Chuan also laughed.

After laughing, the two began to talk about business.

"Military Master, I treated Yuan Chonghuan like this today, do you think this Governor Yuan will go back and jump up and scold his mother, shouting to come to us to settle accounts?" Jiang Chuan said with a light smile.

"Curning your mother is for sure. This Governor Yuan is now at a time when he is full of energy. He has defeated even the rogues who have no one in the Central Plains. It is precisely when he is ambitious that the lord swept him so forcefully. For the sake of saving face, he must be annoyed. But he probably doesn't have the energy to deal with us for the time being. First, he is new here and needs to integrate the Datong frontier army. Second, he knows very well in his heart that his main opponent should be the Tartars, not us. "

Liu Ji analyzed slowly.

"It's reasonable, but he will definitely not be able to swallow this breath when he frees his hand. The most important thing is our current attitude towards him. He will definitely feel uneasy in his heart. He doesn't know the enemy or himself. He should fight again. If we don't fight Many things will not be clear." Jiang Chuan nodded and thought for a while.

"Yes, no matter how much you talk about, you still have to talk about strength. The battle with the Ming army is definitely going to be fought, it's just a matter of when." Liu Ji agreed.

"Military division, I'm thinking about a question, what kind of attitude should we have towards Daming?" Jiang Chuan asked again suddenly.

This involves the issue of strategic layout.Originally, it was a battle between the Ming Dynasty and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but now there is an extra Jiang family army who was born out of nowhere. This pattern has been broken, so we must have a clear attitude about how to go.

As for the Manchus, there is no need to say that they must be mortal enemies until they are completely defeated and wiped out. This is completely certain.

For Daming, it can't be so simple and rude.From an emotional point of view, everyone is Han Chinese, and all the people under Jiang Chuan’s rule came from Daming, so naturally emotionally they are more inclined and closer.

From the perspective of the general situation of the world, Daming is actually rotten, internally and externally troubled, with many disadvantages, and Jiang Chuan has no idea of ​​being Daming's savior.

If you want to change the world, you can only redecorate those old pots and pans. This is Jiang Chuan's consistent proposition.

However, Jiang's army is not yet strong enough to deal with a Manchu Qing, let alone fighting on two fronts.

Second, if he wants to take over the world in the future, Daming is still useful.

Therefore, the reason why Jiang Chuan treats Hong Chengfan like this today is also to make clear his attitude: "It is impossible for this general to seek refuge in Daming. Don't expect me to work for your empire that has only a few days to live. But if there are benefits, this general will also I don't mind accepting it."

In fact, he already had some ideas in his mind, but he still wanted to listen to Liu Ji's opinion.

Liu Ji pondered for a while and said: "Da Ming is about to decay, internal and external difficulties, people's livelihood is declining, and party struggles continue. It can be said that even if Ming Taizu is resurrected, he will be powerless. Of course we can't be tied to this broken ship. However, the broken ship also has three nails. Daming Sometimes the banner is still very useful. We are now in a corner of Liaodong, and there are almost no people in the world who know our name.

If we want to gain a foothold in Liaodong in the future, we need more talents.To attract these talents to vote, you need fame.This reputation, on the one hand, depends on our strength, on the other hand, we also need an orthodox name, otherwise, as Hong Zongbing said today, even if we can fight, we will still be in their eyes. A horse thief.My lord, what do you think? "

Jiang Chuan pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.Liu Ji thought the same as him, and spoke very clearly.

The so-called orthodox name, according to Jiang Chuan's understanding, is whitewashing.

Because no matter how strong the Jiang family's army is, because of the unknown origin and the fact that it is in a sparsely populated place like Liaodong, even if the reputation spreads to the pass in the future, people will only think that it is just a powerful horse thief.

Of course Jiang Chuan could be thicker-skinned, and make himself a king, or even thicker-skinned, he could directly proclaim himself emperor.

But that would be self-entertainment, and it would be a joke to spread it out.

Therefore, when his influence was not strong enough, he must rely on Daming to obtain a name from Daming that would allow the talents in the customs to have a just name and a peace of mind to come and seek refuge.

There is basically no dispute on this point, what needs to be considered now is how to make Daming willing to give him this name willingly.

Jiang Chuan was thinking, and Liu Ji was thinking too.After a while, the two suddenly looked at each other. Looking at each other's expressions, they knew that they had gained something, and they smiled tacitly.

Jiang Chuan said: "It seems that the military division has already thought of it, but don't say it yet, let's see if we think of it together. Bai Mu, come in."

Bai Mu, who was guarding the door, came in at the sound.

Jiang Chuan took off a token with a goshawk engraved with spreading wings from his waist, and handed it to Bai Mudao: "Go and find Miss Bai, and tell me that I have something to arrange."

Bai Mu took the token and took the order to leave.

This goshawk token is a rule set by Jiang Chuan and Bai Jinxiu: Seeing this token is like Jiang Chuan's presence.And there are only three such tokens: one for each of Jiang Chuan, Liu Ji, and Bai Jinxiu, which is a kind of identity proof.

Without this token, no one can enter the station of the Black Ice Terrace.

Hearing that Jiang Chuan wanted to recruit Bai Jinxiu, Liu Ji smiled knowingly, knowing that Jiang Chuan wanted to go with him.

　The first update arrives.I woke up in the middle of the night and saw the rewards from the big boss "Old K Luo". I was pleasantly surprised, but also felt uneasy.
