After the army entered Sichuan, the weather became hotter and hotter, and on this day, the sun was blazing.

The rain and the scorching sun are intertwined and blended, and the baking of the sun has never stopped the growth of all things.

The fresh air after the rain also made Zhu Youxiao feel good.

Outside the camp, there was a stream for drinking horses, and Zhu Youxiao chatted with Qi Jin about preparations for the storming of Wangjiang Pass, and unknowingly came to the shore.

This small river has a clear flow, and it doesn't even have a name, and it is precisely this nameless river that nourishes tens of thousands of pro-conscripts.

Zhu Youxiao walked with his hands in his hands, and said as he walked:

"This is the first battle after the army enters Sichuan, and it is also the first battle of the Yongwei Battalion.

"Your Majesty rest assured, the minister has sent people to infiltrate the pass, and when the army attacks, they will set fire to the pass to assist the momentum."

"Okay." Zhu Youxiao said lightly, walked on the bank of the river, looked at the stream, and said:

"Yesterday, the king of Shu sent me a letter, saying that Zhang Tong's rebels all the way trapped twelve counties in three states and besieged Chengdu, and eastern Sichuan was in danger."

Qi Jin consciously took a step slower, and secretly raised his eyes from time to time to look at the emperor who was walking with his hands in his hands, and felt that there was something in this, so he didn't answer.

Sure enough, Zhu Youxiao sighed and continued: "More than 100,000 soldiers and civilians suffered from this hardship, which is the failure of the imperial court to suppress the rebellion. ”

"The king of Shu suggested that Hou Liangzhu be the general soldier of Sichuan, and Xu Ke of Zhu Xie's Yuan Dynasty asked for the governor of Sichuan, and I want to hear your opinion."

Hou Liangzhu, now the deputy chief soldier of Sichuan who is being elected by the imperial court, after the death of Du Wenhuan, the chief soldier of Sichuan, in terms of prestige, he is indeed the best of the best.

As for Zhu Xieyuan, who is currently the political envoy of Sichuan Zuobu, Qi Jin does not know very well.

He thought for a moment and said:

"The minister and Hou Liangzhu have had a relationship, Chen Ce, Tong Zhonghua and others have formed a brave guard camp, and His Majesty has another important use. Sichuan generals, he is the chief military officer, the most convincing. ”

"As for the matter of the governor of Wenchen, the minister really can't say much..."

When Zhu Youxiao heard this, he turned his head to look at him, then turned his head again, was silent for a long time, and said:

"Passed on the edict and promoted the political envoy of Sichuan Zuobu Zhu Xieyuan to the imperial history, the governor of Chengdu, Songpan, Tongchuan, Jiading and the Liuban Recruiting Division."

"Added the deputy commander-in-chief of Sichuan, Hou Liangzhu, the governor of the five armies, and the governor of the left, and was promoted to the chief military officer of Sichuan. As for Xu Keqiu, the governor of Sichuan, when I arrive in Chongqing, I will settle accounts with him! ”

At the mention of Xu Keqiu, Zhu Youxiao's voice became cold, although the sun was blazing, Qi Jin still felt shuddered, and hurriedly hugged his fists:

"Your Majesty."

At this time, Huang Degong rushed over and said from afar: "Your Majesty, An Bangyan and An Xiaoliang are here, saying that they have something to offer." ”

Zhu You didn't reply, nodded and said, "Tell them to wait for me in the camp." ”

Soon after, the box in the camp was gradually opened, and a bloody, terrifying head appeared in front of him.

Qi Jin, who was guarding Zhu Youxiao's side, quietly pressed his hand on the saber and stared closely at An Bangyan and An Xiaoliang in front of him.

Battlefield veterans like him know that the first-level seal inspection is particular, and the head of Song Wanhua in this box is drenched in blood, and it is difficult to say that it was not intentional.

Qi Jin has shown his killing intent, An Bangyan, An Xiaoliang is good-hearted, and he can be punished!

In his past and present lives, it was the first time for Zhu Youxiao to see such a bloody scene at such a close distance, his eyes were tight, and the fingers in his sleeves were clenched together.

However, Zhu Youxiao still sat upright on the chair, upholding the majesty and composure of being a king and a father, and his exit was also a faint compliment:

"The two thieves have merit, this 300 miles of land in the east of Shuidong, after the court is peaceful and extravagant, it will be assigned to your Shuixi and Wusa."

An Bangyan and An Xiaoliang watched the emperor's every move when he saw this head, just to see his first reaction.

But it's a pity that Zhu Youxiao behaved extremely calmly, as if he had seen anything more terrifying than this.

The two looked at each other, their expressions were a little solemn, and after hearing the words, they became overjoyed again, and said in unison:

"Thank Your Majesty, and I am willing to die for Your Majesty!"

"The army has stopped for a few days, Wangjiang Pass is in front of you, and the imperial court still needs two Aiqing to be loyal, this first battle..."

As he spoke, Zhu Youxiao stopped, and the meaning was self-evident.

An Bangyan naturally understood, and was eager to show his loyalty, so he hurriedly said: "The minister is willing to lead the Shuixi Army and take the lead for the imperial court!" ”

"In that case, Aiqing will quickly go and attack the problem."

After saying that, Zhu Youxiao smiled slightly, and covered the box with his own hands as if nothing had happened.

After the two retreated, Zhu Youxiao knocked the box to the ground with a palm, looking gloomy.

Qi Jinnuonuo stood on the side, let go of the hand pressed on the saber, and muttered worriedly: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, do you want to go—"

Zhu Youxiao sneered: "No need, I still need them now." ”

Hearing this, Qi Jin instantly understood what the emperor really meant, and it was not as simple as soliciting An Bangyan.

Immediately, his expression was also relaxed, and he beckoned Chen Ce, the two of you said a word, I said a word, and whispered something.

......

Under the Wangjiang Pass, the luxury army looked at the endless army in front of them, and only felt that his scalp was numb.

In the distance, the banner of the Ming Dynasty fluttered, and a man wearing armor led thousands of cavalry to rumble, and the sound of hooves stopped at the range of the rebels' arrows.

Zhu Youxiao pulled out the imperial sword, Jin Ge Iron Horse, reflected a long cold light, his wrist flipped suddenly, pointed straight ahead, and made a sound of the underworld.

"Soldiers, kill the enemy with me!"

An Bangyan immediately came out first, and An Xiaoliang was on the left and right, leading the Shuixi and Wusa Tusi armies, making a mess and rushing towards Wangjiang Pass.

In a moment, arrows rained down at the head of the city, and countless screams rang out from the attacking Tusi soldiers, and the battle had broken out.

The Tusi soldiers of Shuixi and Wusa set up ladders and hurried to the pass, and the rebels at the head of the city were also prepared, constantly throwing down big stones and sassal trees.

Caught off guard, Shuixi and Wusa Toast were smashed and hurriedly erected a ladder, but there was nowhere to dodge on the narrow ladder, and they soon fell down like raindrops.

Two Tusi soldiers, who had just reached the top of the city, were stabbed in the torso by the rebels with improvised spears.

They were not like the Ming soldiers who were watching the battle behind, they didn't have any armor on their bodies, and their spears pierced into it so easily.

Immediately, the rebels quickly pulled the spearhead away, and saw the blood mist spewing out from the wound, the two screamed, fell to the ground one after another, spit out blood, and saw that they could not survive.

The ferocity of the rebels caused the Tusi soldiers to panic and retreat, but the back was crowded with attackers, and the two sides were crowded together, and in an instant, chaos was ensued.

Zhu Youxiao found a convenient earthen slope to watch the battle, and stood with Qi Jin riding a horse in front and back, holding the reins of the horse in his hand, and behind him were tens of thousands of troops waiting for battle.

However, in an hour's effort, Shuixi and Wusa Tusi, who were superior in numbers, were repelled several times by the rebels at the head of the city.

An Bangyan and An Xiaoliang organized attacks several times, but they all suffered heavy injuries and returned in vain.

While Zhu Youxiao looked at it coldly, on the other side, Chen Ce was also carefully studying the tactics and equipment of the Tusi armies on both sides.

Not long ago, he heard Qi Jin say that, and he was already preparing in secret.

Seeing that An Xiaoliang had reorganized the team and rushed forward in a chaotic manner, Chen Ce sneered, it seemed that he still thought about these barbarians too tricky.

From the point of view of this battle, whether it is Shuixi, Wusa Tusi, or the luxury army that sticks to the city pass, there is very little armor in the team.

As for weapons, the most they use are simply made spears and spears, which are not of the same level as the standard spears distributed by their subordinates.

Even the combat knives that are commonly equipped by the officers and soldiers are rarely available among the Tusi soldiers, but they cannot be taken lightly.

Judging from the defeat of the previous reinforcements, the Tusi army has a large number of people, almost all of them are natives, and they still have the strength to fight.

Carelessness underestimates the enemy, and this kind of mistake cannot be made by oneself.
