Chongzhen Undergraduates

3Chapter 16: Bad things happen

What Xiong Lijing said today is equivalent to putting a deadlock on the relationship between Zhu Youjian and Wu Sangui, which cannot be untied.

This is tantamount to throwing all the blame of Daming for losing half of the country on the Liaodong warlords, which is obviously a bit exaggerated.But this point of view in this era of respect for imperial power is tantamount to condemning the warlords of Liaodong for a heinous crime.

"Hehe, Miss Xiong didn't give me Wu Sangui the opportunity to serve the Great Ming Sage. It's a pity in Wu's heart." Wu Sangui instantly understood what he should choose.

"What do you want to let him go?" Zhu Youjian was obviously very upset. He actually didn't like Wu Sangui very much. This person was born with a contemptuous thinking, or he was born against everything.

"Whatever I want, the emperor can give it? Can't you?" Wu Sangui sneered at Zhu Youjian and said: "It is definitely impossible to ask for your country, and you will not trade it for a woman. I want the latest style of Ming Dynasty." A recipe for gunpowder."

Wu Sangui knew that he was able to imitate new firecrackers, but could not make new gunpowder, so he took the opportunity to speak.

Zhu Youjian was secretly happy. The technical difficulty of nitrocellulose is not high, but it is still a systematic production method.Wu Sangui's old concept, thinking that he can get the technology when he gets the formula, is too old-fashioned.

"If I give it to you, you will know the truth?" Zhu Youjian asked seriously.

"Then please ask Miss Xiong to stay with me in Bazhong for a few days. After I confirm that the formula is correct, I will put her back." Wu Sangui didn't plan to use Xiong Lijing's move at first. This person was a complete surprise to him. .Just this woman can blackmail Zhu Youjian, and he doesn't have to use other chess pieces at all.

However, if in Zhu Youjian's heart, this woman's status is not high, then Wu Sangui has to use another bargaining chip to negotiate.

"Absolutely impossible." Zhu Youjian waved his hand. It was impossible for him to accept Xiong Lijing to go to Wu Sangui's territory. Don't even think about it.

Wu Sangui felt a little disappointed, it seemed that this beautiful woman didn't have a high status in the Emperor Ming's heart.

"Then you can't blame me, Wu Sangui. Just trouble Miss Xiong to accompany me here and wait for my bodyguards to arrive. As for the rest, the emperor please take care of me." Wu Sangui played a rogue, anyway, it will only benefit him if he spends it.

Zhu Youjian looked at Wu Sangui coldly, and he found that Wu Sangui was really good at pretending.From the moment he came into contact with him today, he has packaged himself as an ordinary general who has no city government and no overall view, and can even be said to be an ordinary bandit leader.

Judging from his negotiating words with Zhu Youjian, this guy is completely in line with the behavior of a rough man.But Zhu Youjian didn't believe that Wu Sangui was this kind of person.

The famous Wu Sangui, a great traitor recorded in the annals of history, would definitely not be of this level, let alone rely on such means as kidnapping a woman to get himself out.

It's too childish.

One thing Zhu Youjian can confirm is that Wu Sangui will not be a hero, nor will he sacrifice himself easily.He is not afraid of death, but he cherishes his life.

"Ji Biao."

"To!"

"Gather all the Thunderbolts together, and after I leave, let General Wu have a good taste of the new gunpowder." After Zhu Youjian finished speaking, he stared into Wu Sangui's eyes.

Wu Sangui narrowed his eyes, and there was a sharp look in his eyes.Obviously Zhu Youjian's order hit Wu Sangui's deathbed, he didn't want to die here at all.

"Slow! The emperor really doesn't talk about the feelings between you and me as a monarch and minister?" Wu Sangui stopped in time.

"Wu Sangui, do you think we are still in the relationship between monarch and minister?" Zhu Youjian wanted to laugh, this Wu Sangui is really a snake and a mouse.

"I, Wu Sangui, have always been loyal to Daming."

"Don't waste your mouth, what cards are you holding in your hand, take them out?" Zhu Youjian didn't bother to talk to him, and went straight to the point. The way of speaking just now was too tiring.

"I, Wu Sangui, protect the emperor's prince Zhu Cihuan." Wu Sangui finally said his trump card.

Zhu Youjian didn't feel much about the name at first, but his heart still throbbed a few times, like a heart attack.

This is the feeling brought out by Chongzhen's body, the resonance of blood.

"You send someone to Chongqing to get the formula! Miss Xiong, let's go." Zhu Youjian's face was so dark that ink could be squeezed out.

After Wu Sangui heard what he said, he immediately retracted the sword in his hand.Even if this confrontation is over.Only Xiong Lijing's expression changed quickly, and she walked away silently, not knowing what she was thinking.

……

On the way back to Dazhou, Xiong Lijing didn't like to talk to Zhu Youjian much.Zhu Youjian regretted it in his heart, and he still thought of this woman simply.

"Commander Li, how many people from the No.13 Army have sneaked into the enemy-occupied area?" When he arrived in Dazhou, Zhu Youjian hurried to find Li Laiheng.

"There are two brigades with more than 1 people all sent to northern Sichuan." Li Laiheng fought guerrillas for a year, and he was lean and skinny with dark skin.

"Is the Xiong's brigade one of them?" Zhu Youjian asked.

"Yes." Li Laiheng felt very strange, didn't Zhu Youjian come back with Xiong Lijing?

"Bring me the battle report of her brigade." Zhu Youjian thought for a while and said.

"Your Majesty, that brigade has always operated independently and did not submit reports to the military headquarters." Li Laiheng said in embarrassment.

"Then bring the hunchback over here." Zhu Youjian felt that he might have done something wrong.

The hunchback is a special existence in the Thirteenth Army.According to Zhu Youjian's requirements for conscription, people like Tuozi must not be soldiers.But because he shared the hardships with Zhu Youjian, he became a special soldier, neither a soldier nor an official, and he also had a special mission.

"Humpty, do you know who I am now?" Zhu Youjian asked with a smile seeing the awkwardness of the hunchback.

"Your majesty, villain..." The hunchback never thought that he would be related to the emperor in this life, it was more like a dream than a dream.

"What are you doing? We are so familiar and still come here." Zhu Youjian quickly helped the hunchback and let him sit on the chair.Li Laiheng served tea to the hunchback himself.

"The children are all in school, the best school in Nanjing. Are you happy?"

"Happy." The hunchback was really happy.The child has been arranged by the current emperor, so there is nothing to say about the future, so there is nothing he is dissatisfied with.

"I came to you today to ask you. What is the main military operation of the Xiong family's brigade in northern Sichuan?" Zhu Youjian looked at the hunchback and asked.

"Your Majesty, they have killed many enemies." The hunchback glanced at Li Laiheng, he was afraid that he might say something wrong.

"You can say whatever the emperor asks you to say, the emperor knows it well."

"I know. They mainly killed officials. Many county magistrates and Tartar officials were killed by Miss Xiong." The hunchback drank his saliva and said slowly.

Zhu Youjian sat up in shock. He grabbed Li Laiheng and said, "Hurry up and get someone to give the other brigade an order to withdraw them all. Hurry up."

"I'll go right away." Li Laiheng was also surprised, knowing that the matter was serious.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter? What did you do wrong?" The hunchback was puzzled, but he could see that this might not be a good thing.

"The Tartars may take revenge on us."

The post-gold Tatars have always used massacres to intimidate the enemy, and they have never been assassinated by the enemy. They have never suffered such a loss from north to south.

In fact, Zhu Youjian gave Li Laiheng the order to attack the Jin army's logistics or destroy their supplies, food and grass, etc., and he really did not issue an assassination order.

But now that Xiong Lijing and the others have done this, Azig will definitely not be able to swallow this breath.

That night, Ji Biao also confirmed it.The Xiong family's brigade did assassinate many magistrates appointed by Hou Jin and the Eight Banners of Tartars in northern Sichuan.

A brigade from the Xiong family sent it up, and the number of officials and Eight Banners killed was a bit exaggerated, more than 500 people.
