Longevity Begins with Jinyiwei

Above the city tower, Li Xiu stood beside Zhu Youjian, and both of them watched the army of the Yongwei Battalion pouring out of the capital along the city gate.

Unlike Zhu Youjian's excitement as he watched the mighty soldiers, Li Xiu frowned at this moment, as if he was thinking about something.

After a long time, Zhu Youjian turned his eyes away from the cold army with some reluctance. Perhaps because of Li Xiu's subtle influence, even if Zhu Youjian ascended the throne, his love for military affairs was not only never before. weakened, but became significantly stronger.

It's just that soldiers and weapons are also weapons. Ever since Zhu Youjian came to the throne, he went to the Yongwei Camp to inspect once, and after being criticized by the civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty, Zhu Youjian had to suppress his love for military affairs. .

Although there are also internal military troops in the palace, but the army with eunuchs as soldiers, no matter how well equipped, is always just an appearance.

"If Da Ming's soldiers and generals are all so elite, how can I still be so worried!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, there will be such a day!"

Li Xiu was silent for a while, then cupped his hands.

"Hope it!"

Zhu Youjian sighed softly and shook his head:

"Aiqing, you have a special status, you must be calculated by others, you must be careful!"

"I have asked Dongchang to keep in touch with you, Aiqing..."

After speaking, Zhu Youjian paused for a while, and then said: "In extraordinary times, extraordinary things are feasible, and you should focus on protecting yourself!"

These words sounded to his ears, and Li Xiu's frowning brows could not help but ease a little, and said with a smile, "If this is the case, then I am afraid that Your Majesty will have to clean up the mess for the last commander!"

Zhu Youjian shook his head with a smile. He didn't say anything. He had known Li Xiu for so long. He naturally knew that the Li Xiu in front of him was far more cautious than he thought.

Whether it's to Baiguan, or to him, the Son of Heaven...

…

More than 10,000 soldiers, soldiers and soldiers lined up, plus the soldiers and civilians who escorted food, grass and weapons, spread the official road for several kilometers, it can be said that it is impossible to see the end at a glance.

Riders with orders galloped at both ends of the army, and at the same time conveying military orders, they also maintained the order of the army marching.

The army is in the middle, the handsome flag is fluttering, and the extremely conspicuous Li Ziqi clearly proves where the army's heart gathers.

Li Xiu straddled the war horse, and the map in his hand that he had studied many times was also occupying all his attention at this moment.

According to the planning of the imperial court, the scope of activities of the Yongwei Camp is naturally within the scope of Beizhili. Strictly speaking, it is to suppress several grass-headed kings in Beizhili, and to prevent the peasant army from Shaanxi and Shandong from fleeing to Beizhili.

The task can naturally be considered simple. Of course, this time, the main purpose of taking the Yongwei Camp out of the capital is naturally not for these peasant troops.

On this point, whether it is Zhu Youjian or Li Xiu, the two have already reached a consensus!

After all, the Yong Guard Battalion was in the capital, and the slightest movement would immediately attract everyone's attention. Even if the Yong Guard Battalion did nothing, the Yong Guard Battalion had already become a thorn in the eyes of many civilian officials.

Not to mention that Zhu Youjian and Li Xiu are both eager to expand their troops!

It is estimated that if there is a slight movement, the person who greets the two will be the words of the court officials.

But outside is naturally different, as the saying goes, the sky is high and the birds fly.

There is no shortage of food and grass, and the ordnance has already been prepared. As for the source of troops, let alone the disaster victims everywhere, if they stutter casually, they can collect a lot.

After the expansion of the army is completed and the return to the capital is complete, it will be useless for anyone to say.

This point, Li Xiu and Zhu Youjian have long been tacit.

After thinking about it for a long time, Li Xiu picked up the charcoal and circled a few points on the map before putting it away. He glanced around at the marching sequence, and his eyes couldn't help but look at the far north, and his brows were wrinkled again.

The news that Houjin sent troops to Mongolia took more than a month, and naturally it had already reached the capital.

Naturally, Li Xiu also learned from Zhu Youjian's office that there is no doubt that history has diverged again.

I just don’t know if Houjin sent troops to Mongolia simply to subdue Mongolia, or did he ask for something else?

Thinking of Houjin's fine works now stirring up the wind and rain all over the Ming Dynasty, coupled with Tianqi's death, Zhu Youjian, the new emperor, came to the throne, there were many turmoils in the court, and the Houjin attack on Ning Yuan was defeated, and Li Xiu had to feel that later Jin's march into Mongolia this time may have something else he wanted.

Of course, the most important thing is that so far, there has never been news of Nurhaci's death...

Nurhaci is not dead, and he is still marching into Mongolia...

All kinds of thoughts flowed in his mind, a possibility that had happened in history became more and more certain, and the sense of urgency in Li Xiu's heart also rose more and more.

"Send the order down and let Xu Feng and Zhou Yuji come over!"

"As ordered!"

The messenger took the order and rushed out. Soon, Erwazi and Zhou Yuji, who were ordered to patrol the army, came quickly, got off their horses, and half-kneeled on the ground.

"Last general, see General!"

The rules in the army are strict, and Rao is a second child. Under the subtle influence of the military rules, except for the two of them on weekdays, they are also called generals at other times.

After signaling the second general to get up, Li Xiucai handed the map to the two of them.

"According to this marching speed, UU reading www.uukanshu.com will take at least half a month to reach the predetermined area. I would like to take the lead with the two of you leading our headquarters as the vanguard."

When Li Xiu's voice fell, Erwazi didn't rush to reply, but tacitly looked at the map. The two place names circled by Li Xiu were no strangers to them. .

Today's Beizhili, although there is a lot of chaos among the big and small people, there are only three places that are really noisy, and all of them are on the edge of the border between Beizhili and other provinces.

Of course, no matter how noisy it is, it can't change the essence of the peasant army. Before it has undergone several transformations, the peasant army, no matter how strong it is, can't change its current vulnerable nature.

Even if Zhu Youjian had not forcibly pushed the Yongwei Camp out of Beijing, the strength of the guards in various places would have been enough to make these peasant troops drink a pot.

"I won't say much about the thief suppression. The most important thing is to select strong and strong soldiers and train auxiliary soldiers. I will give you three months. After March, I will lead the troops to join this general."

"The last will obey!"

The military order has been issued, and the two naturally dare not have the slightest objection, and they go away in unison.

Looking at the figures of the two hurriedly leaving, after a long time, Li Xiu seemed to come back to his senses and looked at a man who looked like an **** beside him.

This person is naturally the contact person of the East Factory arranged by Zhu Youjian, named Li Zhi.

"Eunuch Li! I have to trouble you to send someone to go."

To the eunuch, Li Xiu's attitude is still quite kind.

"General, please order?"

Li Zhi's attitude was quite correct.

"Please send someone back to the East Factory, please pay more attention to the situation in Mongolia. If there is any change, please notify Li in time..."
