Chapter 352: Returning Home
Forget the schedule, you always have to miss the Spring Festival, so you just go slower and enjoy the scenery along the way - if you say it in conscience, beauty is beautiful, but there are many inconveniences.
In ancient times, there were many places with beautiful mountains and rivers, but it was also a sparsely populated place, not to mention the mountains and forests, it was a gentle place, and it was also sparsely populated, and even the Ming Dynasty had only tens of millions of people, not to mention the land of Annam.
Entering Guangxi, a large army immediately responded.
20,000 people!
This was deliberately done by the Guangxi border army, there were already quite a few border troops, plus Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng transferred troops again, so the Guangxi guard simply gathered most of the soldiers and horses to meet the mission.
Why do you want to do this?
Because Zeng Qinglong brought back one hundred and eighty corpses of robes.
The moment he saw the corpse of Pao Ze, the guard in Guangxi stared out his eyes, grabbed Zeng Qinglong, whose injuries had not yet fully healed, and slammed him on the ground, "Annan's group of little miscellaneous skins are doing trouble, you Zeng Qinglong is capable of this?" You're back with the corpse of the robe? Aren't you ashamed? β
Zeng Qinglong silently wiped the saliva on his face.
Bow your head and say nothing.
He doesn't blame this border general named Fang Ling, not because Fang Ling's grandfather Fang Sheng is a martyr and has enough background to suppress him, a commander who has climbed up step by step from the bottom.
It was because of what Fang Ling said, Zeng Qinglong was speechless.
On the way back, Zeng Qinglong knew that his career was probably over, and Zeng Qinglong didn't care about this matter, it was a big deal to demote his official position and go to the border army to be an old fritter.
But he didn't know how to deal with the family who sacrificed Paoze when he returned to Gyeonggi.
After transporting the body back to Guangxi, Zeng Qinglong did not return to Gyeonggi, he begged Fang Ling to leave him for the time being, and if there was to be a war, he was willing to be the first to rush to the front.
If he can't fight, he will have no complaints about Ying Tian's punishment against him.
What can Fang Ling do?
Beat and beaten, scolded and scolded, others Zeng Qinglong was also physically and mentally miserable, and Hu Hancang's father and son, who hated only Annan, were too despicable and shameless, so he used the power in his hands to write to the sky, leaving Zeng Qinglong first and then playing.
The reason is sufficient: beware of Annan's accidents, Zeng Qinglong is the commander of the Beijing battalion, good at fighting, and available.
More than 180 bodies of the Beijing camp were buried on a mountain on the border of Guangxi.
It's different from what it used to be.
Fang Ling and Zeng Qinglong tacitly chose to face the tombstone of Annan, and on the day of entering the ground, Zeng Qinglong roared in front of countless soldiers, saying that you have shown Lao Tzu clearly, Lao Tzu is your commander, Lao Tzu will take your gaze and let Annan's monkey pay tenfold, hundredfold, and thousandfold price!
Zeng Qinglong burst into tears.
When the soldiers and soldiers on the Guangxi border saw this, they were all furious, and they all shouted to kill the monkeys.
Fang Ling was startled and hurriedly suppressed the emotions of the soldiers.
Therefore, when the mission returned to China, there was a picture of 20,000 soldiers welcoming each other: they were all wearing armor and hanging swords, standing in a forest of flags, and the killing intent was Xiaoxiang, which made the Annan officials and soldiers who escorted the mission back home have a haze in their hearts.
They found that the eyes of the Ming border army were like a wild beast out of the cage, wanting to choose people to devour.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
The mission went to Qinzhou for repairs.
As soon as the repair was carried out, the people from Annan arrived, sending 500 "rebel" heads and the roster of the Ming mission.
In the official office of the commander of the Qinzhou Health Station, Dusk, Xu Huizu, Zeng Qinglong, and Fang Ling gathered together.
Xu Huizu once again told Fang Ling about the battle situation of the day.
Fang Ling was stunned after hearing this, "Two hundred is one thousand? β
Xu Huizu was silent.
It's not worth showing off, after all, more than a hundred corpses of robes are in this hot land, what qualifications do you have to show off this combat exploit, your conscience can't get by.
Fang Ling suddenly got up, came to Zeng Qinglong, and hugged his fists with martial arts etiquette, "Commander Zeng, it was Lao Tzu who was wrong before, you want to beat or scold, even if you come, Lao Tzu will never return the favor." β
Zeng Qinglong shook his head slightly, "If you lose, you lose." β
Back in Guangxi, Zeng Qinglong never mentioned the war that day, as he said, if you lose, you lose, and this has nothing to do with two hundred as a thousand, or two hundred as two hundred.
Fang Ling laughed, "Kill it back!" β
He has the confidence to do so.
As long as it is to conquer Annan, Fang Ling, who is serving in Guangxi, will inevitably be entrusted with important tasks by His Majesty, don't look at Fang Ling's grandfather Fang Sheng is just a rich uncle and commander, in fact, he is an old man in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty.
In the early years, he followed Chen Youliang, and later returned to Zhu Yuanzhang, and when Zhu Di was martyred, Fang Sheng was the commander of Tongzhou Wei, leading Tongzhou to surrender to King Yan.
In this year's triage of the three divisions, Zhang Dingbian appeared in Gyeonggi, and Chen Ying, Xue Yan and Zheng Ci asked Fang Sheng, who served in the Zhili Wei Office near Gyeonggi, to determine the authenticity of Zhang Dingbian.
And Fang Sheng's son died early, because he spoiled his grandson Fang Ling.
According to the rules, Fang Ling is likely to inherit the title of Earl of Fuchang.
Dusk smiled and said: "That's true, General Fang can prepare earlier, this time Annan went too far, frantically slaughtered my Ming mission, and there is the fact of usurping the country, once this matter is not resolved, Your Majesty will send people to conquer Annan, and then Guangxi will be the place to send troops,"
Fang Ling glanced at dusk and was noncommittal.
He doesn't have a good impression of Jinyiwei.
Dusk didn't care, if you are a soldier, if you are not a Confucian general, most of them have a stinky temper, just get used to it, and said: "Your Majesty's side is not easy to say, but Guangxi should prepare early, if General Fang has time, he can send some more spies to sneak into Annan, through various channels, get the Kanyu map on Annan's side, or map it out by himself, two years should be enough to do this well." β
Sending troops is definitely going to be out.
But it will take more than a year to wait for Annan's mission to arrive in Daming, and then for Chen Tianping to return to Annanβafter all, decisions on both sides need to be carefully considered.
So the Guangxi side had nearly two years to reconnoiter the terrain on the Annan side.
Fang Ling's eyes widened.
He thought that Dusk was just a commander of Nanzhen Fusi who ate dry rice - after all, they were local generals who were not very familiar with Gyeonggi, or they looked down on Gyeonggi's generals.
I didn't expect Dusk to know the importance of the Kanyu map.
"That's doable." β
Regardless of whether or not Annan is beaten in the past two years, it is good to have a good picture in hand.
Thinking of this, Fang Ling couldn't sit still, and took Zeng Qinglong to do something.
Xu Huizu looked at this scene, shook his head secretly, and said: "Fang Ling is not very suitable for the battlefield, he is too easy to be emotional, and it is easy to put his personal feelings into the judgment of the situation, he is still more suitable to go to the Beijing Camp Guard." β
It is commendable that Fang Ling has such a temperament and leads the troops very well.
Dusk is noncommittal.
Xu Huizu asked again, "Are you sure you will fight Annan?" β
Dusk raised his eyebrows, "This matter has nothing to do with you, don't you want to come to fight the battle of Annan, when you return to Yingtian, I will give a chapter to Your Majesty, and ask him to summon you to the north, your stage should still be in Mobei." β
Fight Annan, Zhang Fu is enough.
Talents like Xu Huizu should fight the more difficult Tatars, Warats and Uliangha.
