0955 Whether to send troops or not
Cao Huachun was even more panicked when he heard this! He was really afraid that something would happen to Emperor Chongzhen! Eunuchs like him were all dependent on the imperial power or the emperor. Once the emperor had an accident, he would become an ordinary person if he died without a burial place!
What's even more terrifying is that Cao Huachun didn't say anything. Not only did he suspect that there was a problem with the messenger, he also suspected that there was an accident in the palace. After all, there is a possibility of any kind of problem in this palace!
Thinking of this, Cao Huachun's body shook even harder! He whispered: "What should we do?"
Liu Pei waved his fist and said, "Tomorrow I will ask the General to go north to serve the king!"
Cao Huachun said hesitantly: "But we don't have the will of the court!"
Liu Pei said loudly: "Eunuch Cao, when is it now? Are you still concerned about the will of the court? I will tell you clearly that tomorrow morning, no matter whether there is or not, I will raise an army north!"
Cao Huachun was very moved when he heard this and said, "But if you do this, you will be charged with the crime of resisting the order!"
Liu Pei said righteously: "At this time, the state affairs are the most important! As long as you repel the Qing army, I think Your Majesty will not blame me! But then I will ask my father-in-law to speak a few good words for me in front of His Majesty!"
Cao Huachun gritted his teeth and said, "Since that's the case, our family will go north with you!"
Liu Pei said: "No! What if the imperial decree of the court came to the future? So my father-in-law still stayed in Dezhou to watch Bao Chaoxin. I saw that this man was so arrogant and brave, and he might not dare to go north! Even if he had the imperial decree, he would probably delay it in every possible way. At that time, my father-in-law would definitely force him to go north!"
Cao Huachun gritted his teeth and said, "Since that's the case, then it's decided! I'll send a messenger to the capital tomorrow and see what's going on?"
Liu Pei nodded and said, "That's great! Then that's it, you and I will do our own things!"
After the two separated, Liu Pei ordered the soldiers to pack their bags overnight and prepare to pull the camp north the next day.
The next morning, Bao Chaoxin gathered the generals and was about to arrange today's exercises. Liu Pei stepped out of the queue first and bowed to Bao Chaoxin and said, "Sir, I want to report to the General."
Bao Chaoxin is very bad
He said patiently: "What are you doing? You should raise it after the official has arranged today's matters."
Liu Pei said: "I can't wait for this matter! The Qing army has been invading for more than ten days. Our troops gather here. We should go north to serve the king!"
This sentence poked Bao Chaoxin's pain point. At this time, Bao Chaoxin dared to go north to serve the king? He wanted to squat down in Dezhou forever and squat until the Qing army left the Central Plains. So Bao Chaoxin shouted loudly: "All nonsense! Do you think you are the official and don't want to go north to serve the king? It's just that without the imperial court's order, how can we send troops privately? You must know that this is a serious crime of beheading!"
Liu Pei said: "The Qing army has been in Hebei for many days, no matter how many soldiers and civilians were killed or injured! How could the court not issue an order for us to go north to serve the king? What's more, we are on the border of Hebei. Are there any troops that are more likely to send troops than us? So I think the court messenger had an accident on the way, maybe it was robbed and killed by the Qing army! So we should not wait any longer, but should send troops directly!"
Where did Bao Chaoxin dare to send troops? He immediately slapped the table and said, "This matter must not be mentioned again! No soldier or soldier must leave Dezhou without the imperial decree!"
After Bao Chaoxin finished speaking, he turned to Cao Huachun and said, "Eunuch Cao, you see, he doesn't abide by the court's rules at all, and he actually clamored to send troops privately. It's really inappropriate!"
Cao Huachun couldn't say anything at this time because there was no order from the court. If Bao Chaoxin had sent troops north without authorization, it would be a serious crime. But he could not say that Liu Pei and the court had a tacit understanding, so he could only sit there without saying a word.
Seeing that he had not received support from Cao Huachun, Bao Chaoxin turned around and said to Liu Pei: "General Liu, I am aware that you are the first offender, so I won't hold you accountable. Go back!"
However, Liu Pei did not retreat, but instead said loudly: "Sir, you and I are both soldiers. Don't you know that the generals are not allowed to accept military orders from abroad? The situation is critical at this time and we cannot hesitate. Please order troops to be sent!"
Bao Chao was furious in the news and shouted sternly: "I have already said that without the orders of my officer, no soldier or soldier shall leave Dezhou! If you continue to entangle, don't blame the ruthless military law!"
Liu Peileng
He laughed and said, "General Bao, at this moment, you don't want to help the king, but you just want to stay in Texas. What are you thinking?"
Bao Chaoxin looked pale and speechless! Because he was afraid that the old god would be told and died in the north, he was stunned for a moment! The old and worldly Cao Huachun sat aside and saw all this clearly, and now he felt that there must be something wrong with Bao Chaoxin! He secretly wrote down a note in his heart and prepared to investigate in the future.
Bao Chaoxin was stunned for a moment, then slapped the table and said, "What is my intention? It is my intention to abide by the laws and regulations of the court! Liu Pei, I tell you that without the will of the court, if you dare to leave Dezhou without authorization, I will be punished for your resignation without permission!"
Liu Pei laughed and said, "I'm going to punish me? I don't know how the General General punished me? The army of more than 20,000 people in the army, and my army accounted for more than 40%. Moreover, except for our army, all the old, weak and disabled soldiers, who can stop me?"
Bao Chaoxin looked around the generals, hoping that someone could come out to stop Liu Pei. But all the generals here looked at their noses and their noses, and they remained motionless.
Because they had seen through several days of exercises that their thousands of people could not stop Liu Pei at all! And if Liu Pei was willing, it would be easy to defeat these teams!
Seeing that no one dared to speak, Liu Pei bowed and said, "Sir General, just stay here in Dezhou and wait for the imperial court's order! The last one will set off the camp immediately!"
After saying that, Liu Pei turned around and left the tent to order troops, leaving only Bao Chaoxin, who was trembling with anger, Cao Huachun, who was secretly thinking about it, and a pile of puppet-like generals.
After raising the troops out of the camp, Liu Pei looked back proudly and disappointedly at the huge camp.
The disappointment was because Liu Pei really wanted someone to rush out with him. This at least proved that the blood of the Ming Dynasty's warriors was not cold yet! But reality disappointed him! Since he ordered the army to set up the camp until now, no one in the camp came out, as if Liu Pei did not belong to this camp.
