[Chapter 549] Zhao Nanxing is here!

(0549)

Of course, it is not surprising that Lin Danhan has such fantasies at all. Now, the whole situation is a bit complicated. In the north, Mo Rigen and his troops are besieging Bayannur grassland. In the south, a large number of Mongolian cavalry gathered. On the surface, the situation of the White-Clothed Army is indeed a bit passive. If the White-Clothed Army is dispatched, it will inevitably be entangled with the Mongols. The Mongols of 60,000 to 70,000 are quite difficult to deal with!

However, in Xu Xingxia's view, after Lin Danhan broke off contact with the Tatars, the pressure of the White Army was reduced a lot. What the White Army feared the most was that a large number of enemies gathered together and stood firmly together. In this way, it would be difficult for the White Army's scattered soldiers to have the opportunity to divide the other side, and it would be difficult to cause a major blow to the enemy's team.

On the contrary, if the enemy is dispersed, the opportunity for the white-clothed army's scattered soldiers will come. They attacked each other and attacked everywhere. Eliminated more than a dozen here and dozens there, which will accumulate a small amount, which is also a good record. It will also be a huge blow to the enemy's morale. No matter who it is, it will feel a headache when facing a group of elusive guys all day long, right?

Of course, there is more than one good news for the White Army. In the east, the Shooting Army led by Chi Hu is heading towards the northwest of the Kubuqi Desert. With Chi Hu's personality, as long as the troops arrive one after another, he will definitely find a way to touch the Tatars' butt. If possible, he will also explode the Tatars' chrysanthemum. Morigen's chrysanthemum was suddenly exploded. I wonder what kind of reaction will be? I guess his expression will be very exciting.

The Leopard Cavalry led by Mao Shisan has also set out. They have improved the necessary equipment, adjusted the number of some war horses, and carried various materials. In addition to making rectifications based on the suggestions put forward by the Leopard Cavalry officers and soldiers, Xu Xingxia also proposed many methods commonly used by later troops when they drove straight into the army.

It is certain that this long-range raid by the Leopard Cavalry was definitely beyond the expectations of the Mongols. They never dreamed that the White Army would do such a crazy move. Moreover, they had the ability to do such a crazy move. It is estimated that when the Mongols received the news of the attack on Guihua City, the expression on Lin Danhan's face would definitely be more exciting than Morigen.

As long as the Mongols retreated in a hurry, the Tatars would not be able to support themselves. At that time, Morigen's only choice was to run back to the north of the desert in shame. If he was still unwilling to retreat, the fate of annihilation would be waiting for him. This means that both the Tatars and the Mongols would soon come to an end.

...

"Sir, there is a letter from the capital." Suddenly, footsteps came from beside him, followed by Zhang Tianhao's voice. He came to Xu Xingxia and handed him a letter to Xu Xingxia with both hands.

"Beijing?" Xu Xingxia's expression moved slightly. He was a little sensitive when he heard the word "Beijing". Of course, this was not the reason for Zhu Hengzhi, but the changes in the court's movements. Logically speaking, he made such a big fuss in Ningxia Town, with the Tatars and the Mongols, and it was impossible for the court to have no changes at all. However, strangely, over such a long time, the court's reaction was indeed very negative.

How to say the court of the Wanli Dynasty? It is quite strange. Emperor Wanli is famous for his lazyness. Even more lazy than Emperor Jiajing. Although Emperor Jiajing did not attend court or held court meetings in the deep palace, he summoned ministers almost every day to understand political affairs and handle state affairs. The two major institutions of Dongchang and Jinyiwei also operated quickly and effectively. Therefore, the government can be described as "sensible and sensible". It is really not easy for others to deceive him. Those who have the ability to bring down Emperor Jiajing are Yan Song, Xu Jie, Gao Gong, etc.

If another emperor, such as Emperor Chongzhen, after learning that Xu Xingxia was causing trouble in Ningxia Town, he would definitely dispatch troops and generals as soon as possible and demand that the frontline quickly wipe out the rebels. Every time he met, he would ask for advice, punish, promulgate, and make timely adjustments to the front-line bandit suppression strategy. When he was not in court, he would summon ministers every day to discuss to see how to quickly settle Xu Xingxia's affairs. Anyway, he would never be so slow and passive to the current court.

However, Emperor Wanli was completely different. This emperor was selective in dealing with political affairs. He felt that it was necessary to deal with things. He felt that it was unnecessary or dispensable, so he was too lazy to deal with things. Is this necessary? How to judge whether it was necessary? I can only say, in one sentence, the dictatorship of the Sacred Heart. Emperor Wanli, like Emperor Jiajing, hated other people's fingers and fingers. Therefore, the various matters accumulated on Emperor Wanli's desk can almost be traced back to the tenth year of Wanli. In the past ten years, Zhang Juzheng helped him handle it.

In addition, because of the issue of fighting for the foundation of the country, Emperor Wanli fought with his ministers for decades, and both sides accumulated a lot of resentment. This resentment had a very bad influence on the court. Those who are emperors always find ways to cause trouble for their ministers, making them unhappy and making them sad. His attitude naturally made the ministers feel unhappy and uncomfortable. Under the pressure of Emperor Wanli, even the life of the chief minister was very depressed and unhappy.

Everyone was in a bad mood, so naturally they had no intention of working. There were some things that Emperor Wanli didn't want to care about, but the ministers could actually care about. However, when they saw that the emperor didn't care about, they were too lazy to care about. Anyway, the world belongs to your Zhu family, and you don't cherish it yourself, so why are we so anxious to do? So many things are in a state of no one to care about.

During the Chenghua period, there was a saying of the three old men of paper and the six ministers of clay sculpture. It means that it is a satirical that officials do not do anything, but only know how to live a life of drunkenness and dream and make money to live. During the Wanli Dynasty, the situation was similar. Such a situation was naturally harmful to the ruling class. However, it was unprecedented freedom for the people among the people. During the Chenghua period, all kinds of cultural achievements were the highest. It can be seen that the government's random actions were more terrifying than inaction.

Ningxia Town made such a big noise, and the court did not make any major moves. The chief minister Fang Congzhe convened a meeting before. Afterwards, Emperor Wanli went to the court for a rare time. However, there was no further information later. Basically, it was limited to Shaanxi. The main reason was that Ningxia Town was a bit remote and had little impact on the core area of ​​the Ming Dynasty. Before, with Zhang Juzheng's accumulation, the court could also say that it would use swords and guns to immediately send troops to eliminate the roots. Now, it is much more difficult to use swords and guns.

In addition, since there are no refugees, other provinces do not care much about the rebellion of Ningxia Town. Even because Ningxia Town absorbed a large number of refugees, some nearby provinces deliberately and consciously guided refugees in the territory to Ningxia Town to eliminate their own hidden dangers. In this case, they certainly would not want the rebellion of Ningxia Town to be quelled so quickly. Of course, there are very few knowledgeable people exceptions.

"I wonder what the court has to do this time?" Xu Xingxia took the letter and took out the new building inside, and found that it was written by Sawanna. The queen of Khorasan is indeed very capable of learning. The font this time is much better than last time. It seems that even without Zhu Hengzhi's seven success power, she is still half of the level.

Unfortunately, Sawanna still did not mention Zhu Hengzhi's words. The content of this letter is purely official. Sawanna said in the letter that her car had arrived at Zhending Prefecture and would arrive in Taiyuan soon. At that time, she would go south from Taiyuan Prefecture to Xi'an Prefecture, then go south from Xi'an Prefecture to Fengxiang Prefecture, pass through the Hexi Corridor, and return to the Western Regions.

Since you have to pass through the Hexi Corridor, you naturally have to obtain Xu Xingxia's consent. Sa Wanna's letter expresses this meaning. After leaving Fengxiang Mansion, her carriage will enter the area controlled by the White Army. Of course, some areas are not recognized by the court. However, the officials below must make changes quietly.

"What does this mean?" Xu Xingxia said to herself after reading the letter. The court didn't know what it was doing, but at this time, he actually asked Sawanna to return to China. On the surface, it seemed that this was a very normal thing. There was news that Sawanna would return to China at the end of the year. However, for some reason, Xu Xingxia always felt something strange.

Suddenly, another figure came quietly. Xu Xingxia looked up and saw that it was Wang Qinian. As the strength of Xuanying Guard continued to increase, the intelligence collected was increasing, and Wang Qinian was really busy. If there were no very important things, the owls came to report. Now, this guy came in person, there must be something important.

Sure enough, after Wang Qinian gave a simple salute, he said bluntly: "Sir, when Zhao Nanxing comes, he hides in Sawanna's car and rarely shows up. In addition, there seem to be two other big names in Sawanna's car, and I don't know who it is for the time being."

Xu Xingxia was slightly stunned and her mind was running at high speed. Zhao Nanxing? This is a well-known figure in the late Ming Dynasty. He actually came to find himself in person? Is it because the kind person does not come, the person who comes is not good? Or is the drunken man not drinking? No matter how he looks at it, it seems very complicated! After pondering for a moment, Xu Xingxia subconsciously said: "You say, Zhao Nanxing comes to find me in person? Sa Wanna is just a cover?"

Wang Qinian nodded and explained in detail. No wonder he had to come to explain in person. This information was really a bit complicated and no one else could explain it clearly. Among them, the core content of the information was Zhao Nanxing, a powerful figure in the court, who was hidden in Sawanna's convoy. The purpose of his trip was Ningxia Town. And his purpose of coming to Ningxia Town, no need to ask, was naturally to find Xu Xingxia.
