Chapter 239: Traitors and Thieves
Ying Yi was preparing for the preparations and was about to deport the camp.
Then a personal guard came to report: "A man from Kaifeng brought people to see his lord in the name of Lord Sun Wen!"
Ying Yi was stunned and his thoughts turned: "Bring in."
He had two troops here, and they rushed to two thousand miles in half a month. And Sun Xiucai sent people from Kaifeng to catch up with him, which was clearly urgent.
A moment later, several ingenious men were brought in. When they saw Ying Yi, they all beat their chests and paused: "Greetings to the lord!"
Ying Yi waved his hand and took a closer look: "It's the soldiers who stayed in Kaifeng."
The four showed joy: "Go back to the lord, yes."
Ying Yi nodded: "Sun Xiucai teaches you to come urgently, but what's the point?"
The leader took out a letter from his arms, bowed and handed it on it, and said, "Mr. Sun sent a villain and others to bring one person and one letter, please check it out."
Ying Yi took the letter, opened it, and finally smiled coldly. He put down the letter and said, "Bring people in."
A moment later, the towel wrapper was pushed and sent to Ying Yi.
When the man saw Ying Yi, he didn't bow to him, but he pulled off his headscarf, revealing a naked green-skinned forehead, but there was a disgusting braid with a rat tail on his back.
"You are Ying Yi?"
When the man saw Ying Yi, he became arrogant and said, "I am Bao Jing, the third-class viscount conferred by the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty. I will come to see you at the order of the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty."
Ying Yi smiled and said to Wang Yisheng beside him: "This is a traitor, have you seen it?"
Bao Jing was stunned, a traitor? He suddenly felt humiliated in his heart and shouted: "How dare you insult me? You obviously don't take the Qing Dynasty seriously, Ying Yi, you..."
"This is the first time I have seen a traitor with my own eyes." Ying Yi waved his hand, ignored it, and said to Wang Yisheng: "It's enough to take a look. Pull it out, cut it into pieces, chop it up and feed it to the dog."
Bao Jing stopped abruptly, his face turned pale in an instant, but there were soldiers like wolves and tigers, dragging him out.
"Give me your life! Please spare me!"
Only then did Ying Yi remember to beg for mercy, but where did Ying Yi pay attention to this kind of pickled goods?
In Sun Xiucai's letter, Ying Yi already knew the whole story.
Bao Jing was a contact person sent by the Manchu Tartars, and this person is not an unknown person. His son Bao Chengxian is an old traitor, almost as famous as characters like Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan.
The dignified Yan and Huang Miao people are going to be slaves to the Tartars. There is no need to say more about whether they are hateful or not. However, these dog slaves are actually not easy.
For example, Bao Chengxian seemed so powerful in front of Huang Taiji, but because of some trivial matters, he said that during the battle with the Ming army, the Ming army harmed the people of the Tartars and did not send troops to rescue him. So he was rubbed to the end and was imprisoned.
When was that? It was the Battle of Songjin. In the Battle of Songjin, the eastern and western Liao areas actually belonged to the Ming court. Even if the Ming army was in trouble, the people of the Ming court were harmed.
Therefore, the reason why bitches are bitched is that they can’t be successful in being a dog.
After Bao Chengxian was imprisoned, in order to avoid taking Bao Chengxian to arouse the opinions of other traitors, Huang Taiji gave Bao Chengxian's son Bao Jing a little sweetness, which is the so-called third-class viscount.
The fact that Ying Yi destroyed the thieves and started to rise, was long since been carefully written by the Tatars to return to Liaodong. Huang Taiji, based on the idea that the enemy's enemy might be able to become friends, planned to send someone to contact Ying Yi and agree to jointly destroy the Ming Dynasty and divide the country.
Bao Jing is a hard-core traitor. He is determined to win Huang Taiji's favor and get his old traitor back before he was imprisoned, so he asked to go south.
By the way, there are still some tricks here. It seems that the Manchus had already had some connection with the thieves.
The thief was destroyed and Ying Yi occupied Henan. In the eyes of Huang Taiji, the old slave chief, was almost the same as Li Chuang, so Bao Jing and his party were born.
These news were questioned by Sun Xiucai when he was entertaining Bao Jing and questioned other people who arrived in Kaifeng with Bao Jing.
Bao Jing concluded from Sun Xiucai's attitude that Ying Yi's forces were willing to form an alliance with the Manchus, but how did he know Ying Yi's attitude towards the Manchus?
Everything is Sun Xiucai's routine.
Bao Jing lived a free and easy life when he was in Kaifeng, but he didn't know what torture Fan Ji'an, who came with him, was tortured.
Fan Ji'an can be regarded as Bao Jing's deputy, but Fan Ji'an did not come from Liaodong, but from Shanxi. Bao Jing detoured the grassland from Liaodong, entered Shanxi, and met Fan Ji'an, and then went south.
And Fan Ji'an is from the Fan family of Shanxi merchants.
It is Fan Yongdou, the old traitor.
Fan Ji'an was tortured and quickly turned against him, which was also the reason why Bao Jing was kept in the dark. A large part of this news was learned from Fan Ji'an.
"Look at it."
Ying Yi handed the letter to Wang Yisheng and said, "No wonder whenever the bandits are weak and about to be wiped out, the Tartars will send troops to knock on the gates, divide the Ming court's attention and leave a breath for the bandits."
From this letter, Ying Yi thought a lot.
The Tartars repeatedly knocked on the gates, mostly when the Ming court was planning to wipe out the bandits in one go. At this time, the Tartars army came, and the Ming court had no choice but to let the bandits go first and mobilize troops to resist the Tartars. When the Tartars retreated, the bandits rose again.
With such a knife after another, the Ming court was so painful that he had no chance to recover.
The ones who contacted the country were some traitors led by Fan Yongdou.
Although Ying Yi did not show his anger on his face and had already decided to migrate Ming, the anger in his heart could not be suppressed when he saw this letter.
After reading it, Wang Yisheng said with his teeth: "Lord, let's destroy the Tartars when we go north this time? I will kill the nine clans and cannot let go of a single hair!"
Ying Yi's anger faded when he heard this and said, "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. If you want to destroy the Tartars, you have the chance to clean up Hebei first."
To fight against foreign countries, we must first settle the internal affairs. The Tartars are there, and they will be destroyed whenever they want. Ying Yi has this confidence. To appease the people and develop people's livelihood is more important than to urgently destroying the Tartars.
"It is the most urgent thing to take down Shanhaiguan first and block the enemy from the outside." Ying Yi said: "Let's go and decapitate the camp."
...
The night is deserted, and waves are endless outside Donglianghaikou.
This is a very deep bay. Although it is not big, the water is very deep, which is very suitable for warships to be docked. Under the night moonlight, there are about a hundred warships of all sizes docked outside the pier.
On the pier, there are a row of barracks and water villages along the mountain, and there are bustling lights.
This is the so-called Denglai Navy's residence.
When the Denglai Navy was at its peak, the entire coastal waters in the north were its amusement parks. Now, only a hundred ships of all sizes remained, with less than three thousand troops remaining.
Moreover, the navy is too old and weak, and its combat effectiveness is almost gone.
Suddenly, shouts of killing sounds broke out, immediately breaking the silent night.
In the water village barracks, when thousands of old and weak rushed out tremblingly, they only saw the stretched torches and golden armor under the torches.
