Chapter 57
When the DPRK and China were trying to decide whether to send troops and horses to protect the guards of Hami, they sent 800 miles from Hami and Ningxia to the capital in an expedited manner. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Outside the south gate of the capital, the sound of hurried horses' hooves was heard from a distance, and then there was a shout "Eight hundred miles of border passes, pedestrians dodge, eight hundred miles of border passes, pedestrians dodge!" With the shouting, a man and a horse galloped past, only slowing down slightly in front of the guards of the capital, raising the expedited customs clearance document in his hand, and galloping into the city.
When the DPRK was arguing, there were hurried horses' hooves and shouts outside the noon gate of the imperial city, "Express, Jiayuguan 800 miles expedited..." ”
After saying that, he fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
The captain of the noon gate guard took off his briefcase and rushed into the city. "Quick, carry it down for emergency rescue." The other garrisons hurriedly carried the men away.
"Eight hundred miles expedited, Jiayuguan eight hundred miles expedited..." As soon as Chu Han heard that Jiayuguan was in a hurry, he stood up from the dragon chair.
"Report, Jiayuguan 800 miles to rush to the pond."
"Quick, bring it up." Chu Han unfolded the Tang report with trembling hands, "The leader of Wara, Ma Hachiqin, led an army of 100,000 to break through Hami and Shazhou, and now he has reached the outside of Jiayu Pass. ”
The Tatars, who had been worried, did not come, and it was Varat who broke through the Hami sandbar first.
Hami Sandbank has been lost continuously, and everyone in the DPRK and China is no longer arguing, so hurry up and think of countermeasures, otherwise Warat will really enter the customs, and the matter will be big.
Therefore, some people proposed to send troops to go immediately, and some people advocated that troops should be transferred from Ningxia Wei and Xining Wei first.
Su Zhefan stood up at this time and asked, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is inappropriate to transfer troops from Ningxia Wei, and now Warat suddenly swept the border and attacked the city, passing through the Tatar region, why didn't the Tatars stop it?" The front line in northern Xinjiang cannot move troops for the time being.
You can first ask Xining Wei to help, and the minister will immediately lead troops to Jiayuguan for reinforcements. Before the ministers could react, it was reported that Ningxia Wei was in an urgent hurry for 800 miles, and the younger brother of the Tatar Khan, the famous Tatar general Aruda led 100,000 troops to attack Ningxia Wei and Chen soldiers at the foot of Helan Mountain.
This is an instant chaos in the DPRK, this is to watch the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty, and Warat and Tatar have reached a certain agreement!
Finally, after discussion, Chu Han ordered, "Order Su Zhefan, the Duke of Yanguo, to be the general of the hussars, the chief officer of the Hami army in Gansu, Sichuan, and personally lead an army of 50,000 to set off in two days."
He ordered Ding Dahe, the commander of the original Taiyuan capital, to be the general of Shao Yong, the chief military officer of Xi'an, Ningxia, and personally led an army of 50,000 to set off two days later. ”
At this point, the Ming Dynasty completely opened the curtain of war, there are rebels in the southwest, there are Warat, Tatar in the northwest, and another Tatar part in the north, and the Uliangha and the savage Jurchen have also been eyeing the Ming Dynasty.
After Su Zhefan went down to the court, he did not go back to his house directly, but went to the mansion of Hou Zhikun of Xining.
Xining Bohou Zhikun was the deputy marshal and staff of Su Zhefan's father, and after his father died, he had been in Xiningwei and Ningxiawei, and later returned to Beijing with a broken arm.
Su Zhefan went to Fuzhong this time and wanted to invite Hou Yi, the son of Hou Zhikun, to go to Jiayuguan together.
As soon as Su Zhefan entered the main hall, he hugged his fists and saluted, "Uncle Hou, the matter is urgent, the little nephew makes a long story short, Jiayuguan and Ningxia Wei are eight hundred miles in a hurry, and the leader of Wara, Ma Hachiqin, has led 100,000 soldiers and horses to break through Hami and Shazhou, and has now reached Jiayuguan." The younger brother of the Tatar Khan, Aruda, also led 100,000 soldiers and horses to Ningxiawei.
The little nephew was ordered to lead 50,000 soldiers and horses to Jiayuguan two days later, and this time he came to ask Brother Hou Shi to lend a helping hand and help the little nephew. ”
Why do you want to invite Hou Yi, there is no other reason, Hou Yi has always been by the old uncle's side, and Zhimou is not under the old uncle, but he has never been involved in officialdom, so after the old uncle returned to Beijing, Hou Yi also followed back to Beijing.
When the old man heard this, he didn't care about saying anything, and immediately asked someone to call Hou Yi over.
"Nephew, sit down first. Although this matter is urgent, it is not urgent. Warat Tatar committed the border attack strategy at the same time, this is to see the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty, and some are a little constrained! It seems that the two sides have reached some kind of agreement, and we will not have time to take care of it at the same time! Is there anything else going on in the DPRK? ”
Uncle Hou is Uncle Hou, in a word, in this panic moment, he does not forget those obscure unstable factors in the court.
Su Zhefan told everything that happened in the early dynasty.
"Humph! It seems that some people are really old, and some people really don't know what to do! You don't have to worry about it, I'll find a way, some people really need to go home to retire! The old marquis was a little emotional.
"Brother Xian, is it a matter of the border!" A middle-aged man in his thirties, tall, clear-faced, gentle and elegant in a blue robe hurriedly walked in outside the door, and he couldn't wait to ask before he entered the door.
"I was drinking tea with a few old friends just now, and I heard that Jiayuguan and Ningxia Weidu were rushing eight hundred miles, so I knew that you would come, and I would rush home immediately."
As soon as Hou Yi entered the door, he knew that Su Zhefan would come over.
Su Zhefan got up and bowed deeply to Hou Yi, "Big brother, the younger brother also asks the eldest brother to help the younger brother!" ”
Hou Yi waved his hand, "I'm not busy, I also brought one over today, you must be happy to see it!" ”
"Come in," Hou Yi turned around and shouted out the door.
I saw a person walk in outside the door, about thirty years old, wearing an off-white brocade robe, clean and dust-free, except for a white jade pendant on the top and bottom of the body, there is no extra embellishment, the posture is beautiful, the steps are like a leisurely stroll, unhurried and slowly walked in.
"Fifth brother, when did you arrive, why didn't you go back home?" When Su Zhefan saw this person, he took a few steps and bowed excitedly.
Who's coming? Make Su Zhefan so excited? The descendant of the Meng family in Lushan, the third son of the eldest brother of Su Meng, the old lady of the Yanguo Mansion, and Meng Weiqi, the fifth in the family.
Meng Weiqi smiled lightly, "As soon as I arrived in the morning, I met Senior Brother Hou, didn't I hear about the border pass and the urgent Tang report, Senior Brother said that as soon as you come to the house, I will follow you." "Simple and straightforward.
Several people sat down and discussed with each other, and finally decided that Su Zhefan would go first, and when he arrived at Jiayuguan, as long as he strictly guarded the border pass, he would not be in a hurry to recover Hami and Shazhou for the time being. Hou Yi and Meng Weiqi still had some things to deal with, and after dealing with them, the two of them followed them on the road and went to the border together.
After the discussion, Su Zhefan left the Bofu with Meng Weiqi.
When Su Mengshi saw his nephew coming, he was naturally excited with tears in his eyes, "Qi'er, your grandfather and grandmother are good!" Your parents and a few aunts and uncles are good..."
Su Mengshi excitedly took Meng Weiqi's hand and asked her mother's family if it was okay.
Meng Weiqi shook his head helplessly with a smile on his face, patted Su Meng's hand with his hand, first knelt down and bowed to the old lady, and then stood up.
Yunqing took Peng Peng and Brother Xuan to Meng Weiqi again, and everyone sat down separately.
"Grandmother don't be surprised, my aunt is so happy to see her nephew. This time, my grandfather and grandmother asked my nephew to take them to the old man's house to ask you how the old man is doing. Everything is fine at home, Brother Jin is also fine, Brother Jin followed his father to study in the spring, so that your old man and aunt don't worry about Brother Jin. ”
