Chapter 15 Fort Layout

After all, everyone wants to live, and those who are soldiers don't necessarily want to sacrifice their lives for the country. Most people still think that it is better to die than to live.

Wang Xing was only one of the people who fled.

He was unlucky, but he was really bold enough. I saw someone here from a distance, and I dared to lean over here. With the ability to steal chickens and dogs from a young age, he successfully escaped the sentry and touched Ye Fu, who was lonely.

I thought that when I saw him sitting there as if he was asleep, I would touch him and run away. Who knows? happened to meet Jin Yichuan who came out to see Ye Fu, and he hurriedly hid, but he also realized that he was probably going to be exposed.

In order to prevent being caught, he felt that he should strike first.

So, there was that fight.

He thought he could gain a slight upper hand for a short time, and then he took advantage of the situation and fled. As a result, it is clear that the unfortunate being caught, the consequences, are really unfortunate.

Although Ye Fu did not allow Jin Yichuan to kill him, he did not stop Jin Yichuan's behavior of tossing Wang Xing.

Therefore, these days, as Ye Fu and others are hurrying, Wang Xing has really suffered a big crime and has fallen into bad luck.

During the day, Jin Yichuan tied his whole person to the saddle. Only when everyone has paused to rest will they put him down and rest for a while.

The lying position and the galloping horses really cushioned him to vomit. He had never ridden a horse before, and he was in such a position that he didn't survive the first day, and vomited on the horse's back. When it was his turn to eat, he vomited so much that he really didn't have an appetite to eat. Jin Yichuan forced him to eat, but he vomited cleanly.

In this way, Ye Fu saw that Jin Yichuan had tortured him for a few days, and tortured him to the point that he was about to collapse, so he ordered him to be loosened and released.

At this time, Wang Xing obviously no longer had any strength to resist. Even if he was allowed to run, he wouldn't be able to run far.

What Ye Fu wanted, this is exactly the result.

He asked Wang Xing to remove the rope from his body and asked him to follow him. Give him a horse to ride during the day, and sleep with the group at night.

Finally able to get out of the sea of suffering, Wang Xing, who left Jin Yichuan's 'claws', hurriedly hugged Ye Fu's thighs.

In the past few days, he knows too well.

Jin Yichuan is a righteous person, and he is good to his brothers. But he is actually a very assertive person, and he will not be moved by his subordinates. Not to mention being persuaded to change your perception or behavior.

But only Ye Fu, no matter what he says, Jin Yichuan is 100% uncompromised, and he can hardly hear his questioning voice.

At this time, if he wants to survive or even live a little better, except to follow Ye Fu and make him happy, Wang Xing can't think of any way.

Therefore, he was extremely well-behaved when he followed Ye Fu. even took the initiative to do some things that subordinates should do, and his flattering appearance made Jin Yichuan feel disdainful. I also vaguely felt in my heart that this guy really didn't look like a Tartar the more he looked at it, but he didn't look like a good person, but he was just like those traitors who rebelled in front of the dog Tartar.

In this way, after several days, everyone finally rushed to the outside of Sanyang City.

Riding on a horse, looking at the nearby Yang City, Ye Fu couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This will be where he will fight for it next. Although I am not very satisfied, I already have my own place, and it should only be a matter of time before I think it will be a matter of time.

He rode his horse forward, but was dutifully stopped by a petty officer who was guarding the city gate. The soldiers guarding the gate were equipped with firearms, and when they saw dozens of people dressed in Ming army uniforms coming on horseback, they immediately shouted nervously and told them to stop.

"Stop! What people! ”

Ye Fu didn't answer, it was still Jin Yichuan who stepped forward and shouted to the little officer: "This brother, we are from Shenyang, this is the new Sanyang garrison, Lord Ye Fuye, please report!" ”

"Lord Garrison?" The petty officer was stunned, but still did not get out of the way, and he asked, "Is there a certificate?" ”

Ye Fu was about to show him the edict, token, and seal letter he was carrying, but the little officer didn't dare to delay, so he immediately confessed and ran back to report. In a short time, the gates of the city were opened, and an officer in helmet and armor rode out of the city. He turned over and dismounted at a position more than a dozen steps away from Ye Fu, and saluted on one knee.

"Shen Zhaolin, the lowly president of Yang Qian, see my lord!"

He was followed by several officers, who followed suit, but they all said in unison, 'See Your Excellency,' without reporting their names and titles.

When Ye Fu first arrived here, he naturally couldn't be domineering, so he hurriedly dismounted, stepped forward a few steps, helped Shen Zhaolin up, and said to him: "Mr. Shen Qian has worked hard, and all the brothers have worked hard, please get up!" ”

The officers behind Shen Zhaolin stood up sparsely, and different eyes swept over Ye Fu's body, each with different ideas.

Shen Zhaolin greeted him with a smile and invited Ye Fu into the city gate.

While walking, he introduced Ye Fu to the Yang Military Fort.

In fact, for Ye Fu, who is familiar with the history of the late Ming Dynasty, he is no stranger here.

Sanyang, this place is not only famous in the Ming Dynasty, even in modern times, it is also a very famous military town, a place where soldiers must fight.

During the Chenghua period, in order to resist the Jurchens, a military fort was built here. At the same time, the Great Wall of Liaodong Town was built with Hushan Mountain on the bank of the Yalu River as the starting point. Therefore, the strategic position of the place is extremely important, and the Zhenshuo Pass was specially built in Sanyang, which is the first pass in the east of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty.

As a strategic location, it was adjacent to the headquarters of the Tartar chieftains, and was almost on the front lines of the war. At all times, there is the possibility of being invaded by the flames of war.

And from Shen Zhaolin's narration, Ye Fu also gradually knew some of the above things.

Originally, Liu Wei, as the deputy chief soldier of Liaoyang, was the top boss of the Sanyang garrison. It's just that Liu Wei has just been transferred to the Shanhaiguan General Army, and Jiang Wanhua took over the position of Liaoyang Deputy General Army. And the dangerous mountain generals under his command were promoted by Zu Tianding, the guerrilla director of Zhangkuandian. It was the actual commander of the seventy-four side platforms, the forty-nine fire-receiving platforms, and the thirteen military forts, including the Sanyang Military Fort.

Before arriving at Sanyang Fort, Ye Fu had been in a hurry. But when he really arrived in Sanyang, he was not in a hurry.

Accompanied by Shen Zhaolin, he took his brothers from Shenyang, entered the fort from the city gate, loosened the reins of the horse, controlled the horse with only his legs, and walked slowly through the streets of the fort. listened to Shen Zhaolin's explanation, and responded from time to time, but his eyes stayed on both sides of the street.

It is located on the north bank of the Sanjiang River, and according to the theory that the south of the mountain and the north of the water are yang, most of the names of the Yangyang are derived from this.

This place is the eastern section of the Great Wall in Liaodong Town, and it is also the easternmost point of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty. First there was Zhenshuo Pass, and then there was Sanyang City, in fact, Sanyang Fort itself was also part of the Ming Great Wall.

Ye Fu is the garrison of Sanyang, and at the same time is responsible for guarding Zhenshuo Pass, including Sanyang Fort, there are a total of twelve large and small military forts under his control, and the garrison should theoretically be more than 3,000 people. Among them, the garrison of Sanyang Fort is the largest, reaching about 1,000 people.

Through Shen Zhaolin's introduction, Ye Fu also had a general understanding of the layout of this military fort.

The fort was divided into two cities, east and west, and was connected by a city gate in the middle. The Middle East City is slightly larger, and the West City is slightly smaller. There were both garrisons and military dependents in the fort, as well as ordinary people.

Since the shock in Liaodong, especially after the First Battle of Salhu, there are very few civilian officials who are willing to serve in Liaodong, especially those who serve as pro-people officials. The other official offices in the military fort are now in vain, dilapidated and dilapidated, and there are no officials in office for a long time.

It can be said that Ye Fu, the garrison of Sanyang, is the highest military and civil chief in Sanyang City at this time.

It's just that from Shen Zhaolin's words, Ye Fu can also hear it. Although he did not directly say the words that hurt morale such as 'abandon the city and flee', his prediction of the war was extremely unoptimistic. The so-called garrison of Sanyang, facing the Tartar Iron Cavalry, in Shen Zhaolin's eyes, actually couldn't do it for long.

When a group of people slowly wandered down the street from the city gate to the gate of the Sanyang Garrison Office, the officers and officers who had been summoned by Shen Zhaolin's order were already waiting at the gate of the office. Everyone was wearing green official uniforms, and against the background of the surrounding snow, how could they feel extremely cold.

Ye Fu dismounted at the entrance of the office and entered through the middle gate accompanied by Shen Zhaolin.

Originally, Shen Zhaolin planned to invite Ye Fu to the lobby to accept the worship of his subordinates, but in Ye Fu's opinion, those red tapes were useless. He has no way to do it on other people's territory, but he is impatient to read from the book on his own territory.

After all, he was now the biggest in Sanyang Fort, so Shen Zhaolin took advantage of his wishes and directly took him to the second hall to guard the office.

Entering the hall, Ye Fu took the lead, walked straight towards the public case placed under the plaque of 'Xianwei Zhenshuo', went up a low platform, went around to the back of the case, and sat down on the Taishi chair.

When he looked up again, Shen Zhaolin had already led a group of young officers in green robes and green robes to stand on both sides in class order.

Although Jin Yichuan had never seen such a battle, he was clever enough in the end. With a wave of his hand, the officers and soldiers of the general banner under his command took over the entire second hall guard. Then put Ye Fu's official seal and saber on the big case one by one, and stood in front of the side of the low platform with the knife, which was really a bit majestic.

The only one who is out of place is probably Wang Xing.

It was daytime at this time, and his nondescript outfit was already very eye-catching.

He was afraid of Jin Yichuan and Jin Yichuan's soldiers, and in recent days, he has been following Ye Fu every step of the way, using Ye Fu as a talisman to keep him safe. At this time, of course, it was no exception, seeing that Jin Yichuan had sent someone to control the hall, he hurriedly trotted all the way to Ye Fu's side, his neck shrunk, and he stood there tremblingly. The appearance of the nest attracted a burst of onlookers.

Ye Fu didn't bother to pay attention to him at this time, and said to Lord Shen: "Mr. Shen Qian, I have just arrived, and I didn't know you brothers before, so I ask Mr. Shen Qian to introduce me." ”

Shen Zhaolin immediately came out of the queue and said to Ye Fu: "Don't dare!" Humble Shen Zhaolin, a native of Shanxi, was born in Wuju, with the rank of deputy thousand households, and served as the general manager of Sanyang Fort. These generals are all world-class military attaches with the household registration of the Dingliao Right Guard, the rank of 100 households is Lu Ding, the title of 100 households is Du Fubo, the title of 100 households is Tang Wang, and the title of 100 households is Tuntian, and Song Ruliang is ......"

Every time Shen Zhaolin mentioned a person, there would be a corresponding person out of the queue, bowing to Ye Fu and then returning to the train. After saying this, Ye Fu has basically figured out the situation of the people below.

What surprised him a little was that Shen Zhaolin was actually a native of Shanxi and a deputy thousand households who came up by martial arts.

The military attachés of this era, nine out of ten, will be hereditary military families. The official position handed down from the ancestors, if you don't want to do it, you have to do it. And the remaining one is probably an official position earned by recruiting soldiers into the army, fighting several battles, and earning from the pile of dead.
