Chapter 59 Urges (2)
. "Brother Seventeen!" As soon as the Eighteenth brother saw me, he immediately walked to me quickly and hugged me.
"Brother Eighteen, you are getting stronger and stronger!" I separated from Brother Eighteen again. I looked at my good brother and saw that he was much more burly and strong than before. The big guy was wearing a strong suit and clothes, and he was really a mighty warrior.
"Brother Seventeen, this time I came, my father sent me to deliver a letter to you." Seventeen seemed very anxious. After meeting me, he immediately took out a letter from his arms.
At this time, I don’t have to think about what is said in my father’s letter. While taking the letter, I smiled and said, “Eighteenth brother, I heard that you have joined the personal guards under my father’s command as a lieutenant. In the future, you will definitely fulfill your childhood wish to become a general.”
The eighteenth brother smiled and said, "Brother Seventeenth, if it weren't for the court's withdrawal of the vassal this time, I would have wanted to talk to my father and ask him to promise me to stay here for a few days."
Although I have been away this year, I always care about my eighteenth brothers and nineteenth sisters in Yanjing. Every time I see something good, I will always bring some to them, because I naturally know their situation. Among the brothers, the eighteenth brothers is the most powerful person. My father has always kept him by his side and he is very fond of him. And the nineteenth sister...
"How is the nineteenth sister doing recently?" I frowned and looked at my father's letter, while asking my eighteenth brother.
"The nineteenth sister is all good. Now she is very tall. She is the tallest among the sisters." The eighteenth brother took a teacup and took a sip, and said, "A while ago, the father wanted to tell the family marriage to the nineteenth sister. I think that man's family is also good, but the nineteenth sister is still alive. In the end, the father had to give up. The matter was a big deal in the mansion."
I paused when I heard this, raised my head from my father's letter and said, "Oh, is there such a thing?" As I spoke, I couldn't help but remember the scene when I left Yanjing, the nineteenth sister trotted to see me off while waving her little hands at me. Her words at that time, "Brother Seventeen, after you arrive in the capital, I don't want you to play with other girls" are still fresh in my heart.
"The nineteenth sister is old enough to get married, but she has not even decided on her marriage. Many sisters have already retired. She is still at home, and her father is anxious about her affairs!" The eighteenth brother continued to explain to me again.
After saying "Oh", I continued to read the letter in my hand, then closed my eyes and thought for a while, and said, "Eighteenth brother, go back and tell your father that I already understand what he meant!"
"Do you understand?" Brother Eighteen looked at me in surprise and said, "Brother Seventeen, Father asked me to help you. When I came, I didn't want to go back."
I thought about it and nodded, "That's good, just stay!"
"Brother Seventeen. Then when will you send troops?"
"Send troops?" I shook my head, "It's not the time."
"Brother Seventeen, you..." The eighteenth brother's face changed and he suddenly became anxious. "Yanjing City is in a critical moment. When will you wait until you don't send troops at this time?"
"Brother Eighteenth, don't worry. Brother Seventeenth will never help his father with his help, but it's not the time yet." I sighed softly and explained to Brother Seventh with a happy expression.
"Brother Seventeen, do you know that the soldiers in Yanjing City fought bloody battles every day, and more than 10,000 people died. They were all good men from our Yanjing!" After a slight salute, the Eighteenth brother looked at me with a frown and said, "Brother Seventeen, are you really like what the second and fifth brothers said to your father, who wanted to... want your father and the court to fight to the death and clean up the mess yourself?"
I looked at the anxious look of my eighteenth brother and listened to what he said. I knew that although I hadn't seen each other for so many years, this younger brother still treated me sincerely, otherwise he wouldn't have said such words to me. Thinking about it, my father gave me eight secret letters of urging me one after another, I was unmoved. For this reason, there were probably more people who were talking about my own heart, and even brothers were afraid that even brothers would not be able to avoid it.
My color was condensed and I said, "Brother Eighteen, don't you even believe in Brother Seventeen? Don't you know how Brother Seventeen is?" My words are true. In the past, no matter what happened, my brother was always responsible for him. I remember that when I was a child, I beat another brother with me, and I took all the punishment alone. It was also because I had the courage to act and take responsibility for my brother. Brother Seventeen has been the most convinced since I was a child.
The eighteenth brother thought for a while and said, "Then...when will you wait until you send troops?"
I walked up to him and patted his shoulder, and said confidently: "Brother Eighteenth, you don't need to ask more questions, even if you look at it, Brother Seventeen will definitely not disappoint you."
After hearing what I said, the Eighteenth brother looked at me half-believingly. After thinking for a while, he probably couldn't guess what I was thinking. He answered at the end: "Okay, Brother Seventeen, I will listen to you all."
"Okay, this is my good brother!" I patted my eighteenth brother on the shoulder again, and couldn't help but look at the slightly gloomy sky outside the hall. All I thought of was: "Planning is for people, and success is for heaven!"
According to the number of registered people reported by various prefectures and prefectures, the population of Sichuan Province is about one million. If one can be drawn by ten, it will probably be about one hundred thousand. However, in fact, Shu has just suffered war, and the population is mostly women and children, and there are many farmers. Therefore, according to my guess, I can only raise 100,000 or 20,000 people, and if there is more than 30,000, it will be over. If I want to use less than 30,000 troops to deal with the 200,000 troops in the Tinge area, there will be more than 10,000 troops from Yunnan and Guizhou provinces along the way. Not to mention entering the capital, even if I can survive Hunan, Hubei and Anhui, it would be a great blessing, so this is also the reason why I have been reluctant to send troops.
However, the matter is caused by humans, and it does not mean that the enemy is large and I have few, so there is no chance to turn the world around. What is also beneficial to me is that not many people can see how much strength I have always taken to train the people to practice the bravery of the countryside. Even if Zhu Changwen and Jinghua Sect have already placed a spy in Sichuan, they can only see my three thousand imperial guards, but they cannot see my real means of hiding the soldiers in the people.
The second thing is the current situation. Although the imperial army was large in number, it also consumed a lot. For example, the 200,000 people who had just set off from Hunan and Hubei to Yanjing, about 50,000 or 60,000 were transporting supplies. Among them, the hard work of the people was the only one who left. After I asked them to leave, the only remaining enemy was Yu Chengqing, the commander of both Yunnan and Guizhou provinces. As long as he could get rid of more than 10,000 people under his command, I would definitely be able to shake the world.
It is precisely because I am determined to defeat Yu Chengqing in one fell swoop that I cannot have any movement at this time. As the saying goes, it will affect my whole body. If I start to recruit local brave men from the people at this time, I am afraid that the news will leak soon. This is really no benefit to me.
Three days later, the 200,000 people rushed to Yanjing finally arrived slowly and joined the battle to attack Yanjing City. On the same day I received the news, the messenger from Yanjing sent me another secret letter. This time, the letter was not the father, but the master.
Perhaps because of my inaction, even the master began to feel a little suspicious. He finally couldn't help but write to me to ask. Although there was no word in the letter that mentioned asking me to send troops, the meaning was self-evident.
I didn't care about Master's letter. I just smiled slightly and said to the messenger, "I am free to argue" and let the messenger go back and report.
Another day later, after receiving the increasingly fierce war in Yanjing from the two factories and the security departments, I ordered Cao Fu'an to secretly capture a group of people who had inserted the capital into the palace in the evening of the same day. At the same time, I used 800 miles to send my secret orders to officials of various prefectures and prefectures, so that they could immediately recruit local charity and send people to Chongqing within two days.
This time, it is the most important thing I have done in my life. It is really a matter of success and success. Therefore, I have carefully considered what to do every step these days. Just when I sent a letter to the government offices of various states, I had already ordered people to block the road from Sichuan to other places, and prohibited any rumors from spreading outside within three days.
After saying goodbye to my wife and children, I temporarily handed over the political affairs of Sichuan to the hands of a group of wives, Li Ziru and others, and took the eighteenth brother, Hantu and Dali's three thousand people to Chongqing overnight.
On the third day, beyond my expectations, the number of people sent by the prefectures exceeded 40,000. Because I felt that in order to show my performance in front of me, the officials of the prefectures sent some of the people sent were somewhat mixed, so I spent a day choosing them, leaving more than 30,000 people to form the front, central and rear troops, and then the remaining ten thousand people were responsible for transporting the baggage, and then they drove out of Sichuan in a mighty manner.
