Chapter 174: He is pleased, he is proud
There are more than 1,000 soldiers in Pinggang Cottage, but except for those who need to stay behind, the rest are artillery soldiers that Qian Qiaogong is training.
These artillerymen, who had been converted from bandits, had not undergone any other training, and if they were sent to the battlefield, they would probably be no different from a group of farmers.
But if they were to die, then the countless shells that Qian Qiaogong used in training and training them during this period would be in vain.
To put it simply, these people have become baby bumps, and they can't die easily, and if they die, they will lose a lot of money.
Therefore, the mobilization of Chen Sheng's battalion to defend Wuzhuang was not that Chen Sheng and Qian Qiaogong ignored Wu Zheng's order, but that Wu Zheng also had an order, that is, if something happened, the people by the sea and the people of Wuzhuang would be squeezed into Pinggang Cottage and wait for help.
Wu Zheng naturally didn't expect that Duoduo's goal was not Shaoxing Mansion, but a false shot, and even did not hesitate to use Fang Guoan as an outcast to cover up and confuse the attention of himself and the small court of Shaoxing Mansion.
He would never have thought that Fang Guoan's army would be so scattered and collapsed without a fight.
If he knew this, Wu Zheng would not have to let Zhou Dahu and Li Ruhai divide their troops at all, and he would not have to march into Fuyang.
Directly assist in the defense of Shaoxing Mansion all the way, land on the Cao'e River in Shangyu on the one hand, and then form the other party's national security attack on both sides.
In this way, even if Fang Guoan has wings, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the encirclement and suppression of the two armies.
At this time, Wuzhuang had three generals and more than 3,000 horses.
It stands to reason that it should not be difficult for such a group of men and horses to defeat Fang Guoan's more than 2,000 people, and even capturing Fang Guoan alive is reasonable.
However, Fang Guoan did not go to Wuzhuang, and after fleeing from Shaoxing Mansion, he quickly turned around and headed southwest with the pro-army sent to attack Wuzhuang, and after meeting up with Wuzhuang about twenty miles away.
In this way, Zhou Dahu and Li Ruhai had no time to react and pursued them.
In other words, Fang Guoan almost did not encounter any resistance, and led his pro-army to leave Shaoxing Mansion and leave calmly.
It wasn't until the news of Shengxian and Xinchang came that Li Ruhai and Zhou Dahu understood that Fang Guoan had escaped.
At this time, Wu Zheng led his troops to Shaoxing Mansion.
Looking at this Zhu Yihai Palace, which was once used as a court hall, Wu Zheng had a feeling that it had been several years.
It has only been two months since he participated in this last military conference.
At that time, inside and outside the house, people were crowded, but now, it is quite deserted.
The blood stains from the front of the palace to the intersection on the right have not been washed away.
Along the palace wall, more than a dozen wounded soldiers were still moaning.
In front of the palace, the bodies of several officials were still lying there.
Wu Zheng could imagine the bloody battle that took place at that time.
Uncle Zheng hurried over, "Lin Anbo, Her Royal Highness the princess has been summoned, please!" β
Wu Zheng nodded, raised his feet and entered the mansion, Uncle Zheng cautiously lagged one step behind Wu Zheng, and raised his hand to lead the way for Wu Zheng.
This is the first time that Uncle Zheng has faced Wu Zheng with a humble attitude.
The change of strength and status naturally changes the attitude.
Today's Wu Zheng, stomping his feet, can turn Shaoxing Mansion upside down.
"Minister Wu Zheng see Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"Lin Amber doesn't need to be polite, please sit down and talk."
"Your Highness."
Wu Zheng sat down honestly and unceremoniously, this is not because Wu Zheng is proud of his strength, but because Wu Zheng has never regarded Zhu Yujiao as the master.
In Wu Zheng's view, Zhu Yujiao is more like a ...... Make friends.
Facing a person who once married Jin Lan and called himself his eldest brother, even if it was a woman, Wu Zheng couldn't treat him with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister.
"Lin Anbo came to help me this time to protect Shaoxing, and the credit is in the community." Zhu Yujiao was not salty and cold, but in her heart she was blaming her indifference.
On the contrary, Wu Zheng seemed more natural, "Your Royal Highness the princess, rest assured, with Wu Zheng here, Shaoxing Mansion is here." β
This is obviously bragging, if Duoduo's target is really Shaoxing Mansion, I am afraid that Shaoxing Mansion has already fallen into the hands of Duoduo, Wu Zheng is at most to lead troops to attack Shaoxing Mansion, and Duoduo will re-stage an offensive and defensive battle, but the offensive and defensive sides have changed hands.
But Wu Zheng didn't want to brag in front of Zhu Yujiao.
Wu Zheng just wanted to appease the girl in front of him, in Wu Zheng's opinion, she was only sixteen years old after all.
Zhu Yujiao really couldn't stand Wu Zheng's nature.
This was more of a sarcasm to her.
But she didn't know why she obviously wanted to talk to Wu Zheng well, but when she spoke, she changed, "It stands to reason that Lin Anbo has made a contribution to Shaoxing Mansion this time, and the court should be rewarded and rewarded, but now that His Royal Highness has moved in, there is no one in charge in the court, and there is no one in charge ......." β
Wu Zheng was a little surprised, if the cold noise just now was because the two of them hadn't seen each other for two months, they might be a little rusty, but now that they have spoken, they shouldn't be so cohesive anymore, right?
Wu Zheng replied a little depressedly: "The minister led the army to aid Shaoxing Mansion, in order not to be rewarded and rewarded, Her Royal Highness the princess does not have to worry about this matter." β
Seeing that Wu Zheng's face had not changed, but his tone was no longer good, Zhu Yujiao became annoyed with herself in her heart.
For a moment, the atmosphere became awkward.
On the side, Uncle Zheng said in a low voice: "Lin Anbo, if you are in the future, Her Royal Highness the princess is going to Wuzhuang." β
Wu Zheng let out an "oh", got up and said, "So, then go." β
I don't want Zhu Yujiao to frown slightly and said, "I'm not going to this palace." β
Wu Zheng was stunned and looked at Zhu Yujiao.
Zhu Yujiao pursed her lips and said, "Now that Shaoxing Mansion is safe, why should this palace go to Wuzhuang again?" β
Wu Zheng was right to think about it, and responded: "Then please ask Her Royal Highness the princess to rest, the minister still has military affairs, and after everything is arranged, I will come to greet Her Royal Highness the princess." β
After speaking, he saluted Zhu Yujiao and left the palace.
Looking at Wu Zheng's back, Zhu Yujiao's face turned white, got up and stomped her feet, and went to the inner courtyard.
Uncle Zheng looked at the direction where Wu Zheng left, and then looked at Zhu Yujiao's back, shook his head, sighed slightly, and chased Zhu Yuanjiao's back.
β¦β¦γ
Zhang Huangyan returned halfway.
He did not arrive at Wuzhuang, and when he heard that the Hangzhou Mansion had sent troops to reinforce the Shaoxing Mansion, he hurried back.
He was relieved, he was proud, and there was a wave of heat in his chest ready to burst out.
He was relieved that he had not mistaken Wu Zheng, no matter what, Wu Zheng had sent troops to reinforce him.
Even if you can't save Shaoxing Mansion, having this attitude and not having this attitude are two completely different things.
Just like Wang Zhiren, he did not move.
He was proud to be like-minded with such a person.
At that moment, Zhang Huangyan had a desire to compete with Wu for a cup and a night talk.
What could be more celebrated than meeting a close friend who can put your heart into your heart in a bumpy life?
The changes in wind and rain on this day made all the subjects of Shaoxing Mansion speechless.
The strong enemy attacked, the country voted for the enemy, and even His Royal Highness the prison country turned into the sea.
