~~~~~~

The reason why Man Gui rushed over in a hurry at this time, even at the risk of being spotted, to meet with Li Yuanqing was to inform Li Yuanqing in detail about the general situation and general trend of the entire capital.

After all, for this kind of thing, even if Li Yuanqing's intelligence system is very developed, it is difficult to cover everything.

Especially the issue of angle.

Li Yuanqing's intelligence system obviously cannot meet Man Gui's perspective, especially on the battlefield.

At this time, hearing Man Gui talking about Yuan Manzi, Chen Zhong couldn't help it and spat in a low voice: "Old Man, if Yuan Qing and I don't make efforts on the eastern front, how can the bastard Yuan Manzi be in the capital?"

Good thing? Just like this, this bastard still wants to repay kindness with hatred? Damn it, is he still a human being!"

Man Gui couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Old Chen, you don't know what the situation is in Liao at this time? Yuan Manzi is like this, what can we do? This time, not only Zhao led the teachings to be killed, but the front line of the capital alone

, Ningyuan’s Central Army lost only 3,000 men. Zu Dashou’s side only lost 3,000 men. Liaoxi’s vitality has been greatly damaged.”

"Lao Man, co-author~, Yuan Manzi's vitality is severely damaged, so he has to take out our brothers to vent his anger? Why does he have it? Why does he have it!"

"I, Old Chen, can't swallow this breath!"

The veins on Chen Zhong's neck bulged.

Man Gui couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Old Chen, our brothers only eat this bowl of rice. What do you think we can do?"

Man Gui also had a bad temper before. In the past, he might have been able to directly confront Chen Zhong, but now, looking at the violent Chen Zhong, he was very calm.

Man Gui is actually very...very envious of Chen Zhong sometimes...

Because~, no matter what Chen Zhong does, Li Yuanqing is there to protect him from the wind and rain. He can completely retain his temperament without deliberately changing anything.

And he is full of glory...

After this battle in the capital, his bones were sore from being beaten...

At this time, Li Yuanqing smiled and pulled Chen Zhong, threw the cigar box to Chen Zhong, took out one himself, and motioned to Chen Zhong to pass one to Man Gui to relax the atmosphere.

Chen Zhong also came to his senses at this time and said hurriedly: "Lao Man, please don't be angry. I was a little angry just now. But I am definitely not angry at you. Come on, let's both order.

superior."

Mangui hurriedly smiled and said: "Old Chen, don't say this between us brothers. If it were me, I wouldn't be happy either."

Li Yuanqing slowly exhaled a mouthful of thick fog and said with a smile: "Brother Gui, your headquarters' casualties in this battle are not small, right?"

Man Gui's expression suddenly darkened, "Hey Yuan Qing, my headquarters already has more than three thousand people, let alone the Shanhaiguan tribes. I'm afraid I won't be able to relax in two or three years."

Chen Zhong was stunned when he heard this, "Lao Man, you... ugh, it's all my fault, Lao Chen. Wait a minute, I, Lao Chen, will drink as a penalty myself."

Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Brother Gui, don't be too sad. It's not necessarily a bad thing to suffer such a loss at this time. The fighting power of the Tatars is much stronger than that of our Ming Dynasty. This time Huang Taiji is carrying a Yin knife again.

Even if I go there, it will be difficult not to suffer a loss. Shanhaiguan is a good place, and this time on the eastern front, it has not been affected. It may not take so long to recover."

Man Gui nodded heavily, but smiled bitterly and said: "Yuan Qing, you don't have to comfort me like this. I still know my own abilities. Although Yuan Manzi did not act authentically, but~, if he was in Shunyi City,

If you go, I'm afraid you won't be like me and rush into battle rashly."

Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Brother Gui, you can't say that. You are good at riding and fighting, and I am good at defending the city. In the final analysis, it is Yuan Manzi who did something wrong. However, after this severe test, the sons and sons left behind

They are all good men."

Man Gui naturally understood what Li Yuanqing meant, and finally had a smile on his face, "Yuan Qing, Lao Chen, I, Lao Man, only have so much ability as a wife now."

"Haha. Lao Man, what's the old saying that Yuan Qing always said? A single spark can start a prairie fire. As long as there are seeds, you can get up again sooner or later. Yuan Qing and I will do our best to help you."

…………

Mangui was already quite tired after driving in the wind and rain. Although everyone drank some wine at lunch, it was not much.

After the luncheon, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong personally sent Mangui to the big tent to rest.

At this time, Mangui's headquarters was still behind, and they would return directly to Shanhaiguan. Mangui rushed over with only more than a hundred soldiers.

This friendship alone needs no words.

After leaving Man Gui's tent, Chen Zhong looked unhappy and whispered: "Yuan Qing, what should we do about this?"

Li Yuanqing slowly exhaled a long breath, and after a moment, he said with a smile: "Brother, the county magistrate is not as good as taking charge now. After all, Governor Yuan is our immediate superior. We must take good care of this matter. He has not yet received the Holy Family at this time.

It's not the right way to fight against the recession and fight against him."

"Why!"

Chen Zhong couldn't help but sigh deeply, "Yuan Qing, sometimes I really... really don't want to do things without conscience."

Li Yuanqing smiled and said, "Brother, it's actually not difficult to solve this matter. We still have so much food and grass that the soldiers can't use, so just give it to Yuan Manzi. I will arrange this matter."

Chen Zhong nodded heavily and suddenly remembered: "By the way, Yuan Qing, if Yuan Manzi discovers our manpower..."

Li Yuanqing smiled: "Brother, you don't need to worry too much about this matter. I have already discussed it with the prince before. The difference is big, and the prince should be able to deal with it. Let's keep an eye on Yuan Manzi's whereabouts now. When the time comes,

, go directly to visit."

…………

Man Gui slept soundly all afternoon. In the evening, he had a dinner with Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong, and explained in detail some of the movements of the capital and Governor Yuan. That night, he hurried back to Shanhaiguan.

At this time, although he had been rewarded by the court, there were too many brothers killed in the battle, and he could not stay here.

As for Mao Yuanyi's matter, Man Gui also had a careful exchange with Li Yuanqing, and would later give Mao Yuanyi a Luocheng to handle on his own.

This way, Mao Yuanyi can be regarded as his Mangui person. At least, to a certain extent, he can increase his voice in Mangui, which can be regarded as the best of both worlds.

Back at the main tent, Li Yuanqing's concubines Shu Murong and Zhao Mei had just arrived, and they also brought back the latest news on the island.

Most of the tribesmen on Jeju Island have returned home, and the tribesmen of Shunzi, Duan Xiliang, and Kong Youde are already on their way here.

When their fleet arrives, Li Yuanqing's transportation capacity will be greatly increased several times, and it will be much easier to transport these people next.

In the big tent, four women competed for beauty, which was indescribably eye-catching.

But at this time, Li Yuanqing didn't have much thought about women.

Ten years, in the blink of an eye!

By this time, history has reached a critical node.

In history, at this time, the conflict between the Liaoxi Group and Dongjiang broke out at the most acute point. Not long after the third year of Chongzhen, Governor Yuan raised the butcher's knife against Mao Wenlong, thereby knocking down the entire dominoes and triggering a change in the entire China.

Historical chain reaction.

At this time, although Li Yuanqing's buffer greatly reduced Mao Wenlong's pressure, the conflict between the three parties was approaching a critical point.

Although Governor Yuan's visit to the capital was uneventful, the whole process was stumbling.

He must also be very aware that the throne under his butt is no longer as secure as it was when Feng Guang took office.

The key is that he doesn't have many usable soldiers.

Facts have proved that his Guanning Group can only parry in front of the Tatar cavalry, but it has almost no power to fight back.

This may be difficult for Governor Yuan to accept.

And ~~, if you want to obtain combat-ready soldiers in the shortest time and most effectively, your targets can only be Li Yuanqing and Mao Wenlong.

To a certain extent, this has actually escalated to an endless conflict between ourselves and the enemy, and there is no possibility of resolving it...

However, due to ancestors, inheritance, etiquette, regulations, and various shackles, including the general trend of people's hearts, Li Yuanqing could only continue to wait patiently.

Waiting for Governor Yuan to be anxious and break this rule...

…………

After a romantic night, Li Yuanqing was already in high spirits early the next morning.

At this time, Governor Yuan had already arrived in Funing. After a brief breakfast, Li Yuanqing greeted Chen Zhong and brought two troops with more than 10,000 elites, transporting a large amount of baggage and supplies, as well as the captured armor weapons of the Later Jin Army, to the front.

Shilipu in the northeast of Funing, waiting for the arrival of Governor Yuan and his party.

It was close to seventy miles from the seaside camp to Shilipu Town, but Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong arrived in one day, although it was already close to midnight when they arrived.

Before setting off, Li Yuanqing had already reported the news to Governor Yuan, allowing him to make preparations first.

And Li Yuanqing had already made it clear to Chen Zhong why he roped in Chen Zhong.

After all, this is an audience in the army. When the time comes, they must be fully armed. If something unexpected happens, the two of them must break out of the encirclement as soon as possible.

Chen Zhong was originally very unhappy about this matter, but when he heard Li Yuanqing mention this, he immediately became indescribably excited.

Feeling~, this guy is just looking forward to something happening...

Li Yuanqing did not wait long in Shilipu. The next day, the vanguard of the Ning army came over.

This is actually normal.

Guan Ning's army had more than 90% of the resources of the entire Ming Dynasty. Whether it was war horses or mules, they completely surpassed the Ming Dynasty. Even Li Yuanqing's men could not compare with them at this time.

The first batch of top generals who came over was none other than Li Yuanqing’s ‘old acquaintance’ Zu Dale.

Zu Dale didn't expect that Li Yuanqing would be stuck here, and he felt guilty for a moment.

But he didn't want to lose his aura, so he rode over to meet Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong.

"Haha. Li Shuai, Chen Shuai, it's been a long time."

Zu Dale and Li Yuanqing were separated by more than ten steps, smiling and clasping their fists, seemingly open-minded, but in fact, they were fully defensive.

Li Yuanqing smiled and clasped his fists and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. Vice Admiral Zu is even more handsome than before. Perhaps, in a few days, Yuan Qing will be called the Zu Army Sect?"
