Chapter 1250: Disposal
The good mood of the early morning disappeared. Qin Feng returned to the house with a calm face, Tian Kang followed in and closed the door. Standing in front of Qin Feng, with his head down, he was an insider, and naturally knew that the influence of this matter was quite large, and it was very likely that it had a very bad impact on the Ming Dynasty's arrangement in Chu State.
Qin Feng was in a really bad mood at this time.
Of course, Ma Chao's purpose was not Qinghe County, nor did he want to rush to the Luoying Mountains to be a bandit. He had five thousand cavalry with him. What else could the cavalry enter the mountain? His goal should be Chu State.
Why did he run to Chu? Why did Ma Yue pay such a great price and even protect Ma Yue from running to Chu? The conclusion is self-evident, they collude with Chu.
Scratching his hair irritably, Qin Feng looked at Tian Kang and sighed: "This is really a lesson. No one can be despised by us. All along, Ma Yue gave us the image of a guy with great ambition and talent. He is a person without far-sightedness. His performance in the past has always proved this, but when a person is forced to the dead end, he will really exude amazing abilities. His IQ exploded at this moment."
Tian Kang had never seen Qin Feng lose his composure so much and bowed his head and said nothing.
"And Min Ruoying, a person who can plot against his elder brother and can kill Zhuo Dashen, how can I underestimate him? I have been so smooth over the years. It has been so smooth that I have lost myself and has been so arrogant that Min Ruoying is playing this trick! He took Bian Wushuang and then found someone to check and balance Bian Wushuang later."
"Your Majesty, maybe they haven't colluded yet!" Tian Kang was still holding on to hope.
"Impossible!" Qin Feng said decisively: "We ignored a person, Ma Ying, the eldest princess of the Qin Dynasty. This imperial concubine has always been so low-key that it makes people unable to notice her existence, but this matter is definitely her threading needles in it. Min Ruoying unconditionally accepted Bian Wushuang and asked Bian Wushuang to hold most of the troops of Chu in his hands. How could there be no way to check and balance?"
He looked at Tian Kang with a wry smile, "Since we surrounded Yongdu, Bian Wushuang was preparing to surrender to Chu, Min Ruoying was already planning this matter. At that time, anyone could see that Qin State was almost out of reach. Min Ruoying took Bian Wushuang and divided Bian Wushuang's 50,000 elite troops into three parts. Some followed Bian Wushuang to Jinghu, and some followed Bian Wenzhong to suppress the bandits, while the remaining 10,000 remained in Anyang County. At the same time, the 50,000 elite families were placed in Anyang County. Tian Kang, you said that Ma Chao arrived in Anyang, suppressed the 10,000 soldiers and held the 50,000 elite families, Bian Wushuang was afraid of the rats. Min Ruoying could draw a ladder at any time!"
Tian Kang was silent for a moment, "Your Majesty, the 10,000 people who stayed in Anyang betrayed the Ma family and son. I am afraid that Ma Chao will not be able to conquer these people so easily. Are they not afraid of Ma Chao settle the score later?"
"This is a possibility. But the danger already exists. Tian Kang sent someone to notify Bian Wushuang as quickly as possible to tell him about this situation. In this case, Ma Chao must not succeed in these 10,000 people, otherwise there will be big problems."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I'll send someone to do it right away." Tian Kang nodded and said, "Your Majesty, we have a second way, that is, kill Ma Chao. Once Ma Chao dies, everything will be easy."
"He is in the army and it's hard to attack, and he will definitely be on guard against our move." Qin Feng sighed.
"Even if there is any difficulty, we have to try it. Please ask Master Huo Guang or Master He Rentu to go." Tian Kang said: "Our Eagle Nest will help you with all our efforts. Over the years, our Eagle Nest has been working hard in the Western Army of Chu. There are still a lot of gains."
"If we kill Ma Chao like this, will Min Ruoying be alert to the relationship between Bian Wushuang and us? This person is a conspirator and has an extremely keen feeling about various conspiracies." Qin Feng was a little doubtful.
"Your Majesty, no. We will destroy Qin and kill Ma Yue. We will not let Ma Chao go, for us, for the sake of reason, but we will not let Ma Chao escape. For us, it is unacceptable. It is also the subject to come up with various means to kill him." Tian Kang shook his head and said, "Besides, if Ma Chao stops in Anyang, it will pose a threat to Qinghe County. If this is Min Ruoying's deliberate plan, it will inevitably let Ma Chao take power in Anyang. With troops and logistics assistance in his hands, Ma Chao will definitely cross the Luoying Mountains to attack us."
"Not for the time being!" Qin Feng said: "Chu State is still relying on us now. Since Ma Chao has joined Chu State, he is a minister of Chu State. He dare not have disputes with us at this time. Of course, we still have to prevent us from taking precautions. Zhaoyingxia still needs to station troops."
Tian Kang nodded, "There is a Jingjing Pass in the Chu army, and we must firmly grasp Zhaoying Gorge to prevent it."
Qin Feng shook his head: "You go and do this. The court will also put pressure on the State of Chu. I will send a special envoy to the capital. Whether it is threatening or tempting, I will let Min Ruoying feel our anger. If I can make some more money to get back through this matter, I will be considered as having no loss to vomit blood."
Tian Kang bowed silently and retreated. Next, he was a little busy.
As soon as Tian Kang left, Chen Zhihua rushed over, his face looked very bad.
"His Majesty!"
Qin Feng nodded: "You have received the news too? I already know. Can you catch up with me?"
Chen Zhihua shook his head.
"Although Yu Chao and Ma Hou are still chasing, the gap between them has been widened by hundreds of miles. Ma Chao has walked three days in advance. Our current pursuit can at most make Ma Chao stay in the place for too long and poison the place. Your Majesty, now it seems that their destination should be to pass through the Luoying Mountains to Chu State. Along the way, there are three counties, and there are no troops everywhere, only some civil servants and their guards, and then some merchant guards." Chen Zhihua was silent for a moment: "I'm afraid that these people of ours will suffer great losses. Ma Chao fled with light cavalry, and there was not enough supplies with them. They would only walk all the way and grab all the way."
With a thud, Qin Feng punched heavily on the table. Just now, he just thought that Ma Chao's escape to Chu might have a great impact on his layout in Chu. Now, after Chen Zhihua reminded him, he remembered where a cavalry of 5,000 people passed. I am afraid that the Ming people's caravans and guards would become their targets for venting their anger.
As Chen Zhihua said, the losses are probably not small, and the losses of wealth are still small, but the losses of personnel are irreparable.
"Your Majesty, this is all my dereliction of duty!" Chen Zhihua knelt down, "If I could think of this in advance and arrange a surveillance team on the periphery, there would never be such a major mistake. Please give up your crime!"
"This is not only your problem, but also mine." Qin Feng shook his head: "If you really want to hold the blame, I will be the first to bear the blame."
"Your Majesty, the military plans are all formulated by the minister, and the command of the war is also the minister." Chen Zhihua raised his head, "The minister will explain the whole matter to the Ministry of War, and then ask the Ministry of War to discuss the crimes of the minister!"
Qin Feng smiled bitterly. Chen Zhihua didn't know what happened to Bian Wushuang, and he didn't know that the impact of this matter was not just that Ma Yue would attack the Ming caravan and guard along the way, but would have a great impact on the layout of the entire Chu State. The agreement between Qin Feng and Bian Wushuang originally did not have much binding force on both sides. The factor that really allowed both sides to go on the same path in the end was the general trend of the world. But now such a variable has made everything a little unpredictable.
The only advantage is that the chess piece set up by the Ming Dynasty in Jinghu. Now the only one exposed to Bian Wushuang is Ning Zhiwen.
But he didn't want to say this to Chen Zhihua now.
"Since I'm here, it's not your turn to take the main responsibility." Qin Feng patted Chen Zhihua on the shoulder. It can be imagined how angry Quan Yun from the Ministry of War and the Political Affairs Hall would be after knowing this. This matter is too secret and cannot be made public, but they will definitely find other reasons to punish Chen Zhihua in the future.
But for Qin Feng, Chen Zhihua was generally a pretty good general. This battle to defeat Qin was basically completed by Chen Zhihua. He basically completed the tasks assigned by the court and won the entire war with minimal casualties.
If Qin Feng wanted to save him, he could only take most of the responsibility on himself. Besides, he was indeed responsible for this matter and never thought of this!
"Your Majesty!" Chen Zhihua looked up, his eyes flushed a little.
"Okay, you are my general, how do you do a childlike manner? Hurry up and do serious business! Yu Chao and Ma Hou will continue to chase. Not only will they chase, but they will also send infantry to follow up and prepare to garrison Zhaoyingxia. At the same time, they will also attack Jingjingguan. The court will send special envoys to Chu State, and the army must cooperate in this regard."
"If the Chu State does not hand over Ma Chao, we will march into Anyang!" Chen Zhihua stood up suddenly.
"It can only be a threat, and I hope to get some compensation. I have other arrangements for Ma Chao. Just do these things well, and you don't have to worry about anything else." Qin Fengdao." Yongdu was determined, and the court could not send people here for a while. Yongdu still had to implement military control for a long time. In addition, except for the army leaving the Luoying Mountains and the army stationed in Yongdu, other troops will be called back."
"Yes, I will arrange it properly. Your Majesty thinks which army goes to the Luoying Mountains?" Chen Zhihua asked.
