The young general with a tough face and a short beard on his cheeks is none other than Kong Youde, the general of the Dengzhou Left Battalion.

This person was born as a miner in Liaodong, and later defected to Mao Wenlong on Phi Island, recognized Mao as his father-in-law, and changed his name to Mao Yongshi. Because Kong Youde was brave and good at fighting, he later became an important general in Dongjiang Town.

After that, Mao Wenlong was killed by Yuan Chonghuan, and Dongjiang Town was torn apart. The first section of the Dongjiang River, headed by Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and others, was not on good terms with the new commander-in-chief Huang Long, and finally took refuge under Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, and moved to Dengzhou to garrison.

To tell the truth, waiting at the dock today to meet the legendary Cao's soldiers and horses, General Kong's mood is actually a bit complicated: there is panic and gratitude.

He said that he was frightened because he knew that the people who came were powerful.

Thinking of the 100,000 heroes in Dongjiang Town, they fought endlessly with Jiannu outside the pass where they climbed the ice and snow...... However, over the years, the Tartar heads cut off by the whole gang in Dongjiang Town have been added together, which is not enough for the people to cut down more than the Qinwang partial division.

Of course, if you count the coats and civilians, the number of kills reported by Mao Wenlong to the imperial court will be out of line.

However, anyone can deceive, but they can't deceive themselves.

After the ceremony of the capital's victory, the imperial court did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to transfer 4,000 Jiannu heads to the nine sides for circulation, in order to promote the prestige of the country.

Dongjiang Qunhao was subverted at this time. Not only did they see the two Belle Lords, Amin and Shuoto, the big demon kings in their hearts, but they also found many acquaintances in the container truck, and those acquaintances who chased and killed everyone in the past.

Therefore, Kong Youde knows very well that the 4,000 Jiannu heads that the Cao family cut off are all real Jiannu elites.

This is the reason why he is a little panicked today: only those who have fought with Jiannu with real swords and guns know how powerful it is.

As for Kong Youde's grateful attitude at the moment, it is not enough for outsiders.

...... Prior to this, in fact, the letter from the Ministry of War had been sent to the Yamen of the Governor of Denglai by expedited express: Sun Yuanhua dispatched his powerful troops to Shanhaiguan to listen to it.

After Sun Yuanhua, a firearms expert, received the official letter, he naturally did not dare to slack off. He used to be the chief of Ningyuan and presided over the shelling of Jiannu, and he was very clear about the significance of this battle of Daling River to the Ming court. What's more, since the beginning of this campaign, the allies of the DPRK and China have written to him.

The official to the imperial court specially customized the governor of Denglai for the Liaodong front, Sun Yuanhua is duty-bound this time.

What Sun Yuanhua didn't expect was that the effect after his deployment was not good. A cadre of Liaodong generals Zuo Wenling was in a trance, first in the war on whether to send troops or not, and when Sun Yuanhua made it clear that the military order could not be changed, this generation shirked and complained about all kinds of unbearable.

Sun Yuanhua probably knew a little bit about the reason why Kong Youde avoided the war. However, as a member of the hereditary scholars, Sun Yuanhua has no reason, and it is impossible to put down his body to explore the mental journey of a martial artist.

His grandson did not rebel, and it was useful for the people to invite the people to buy people's hearts?

For Lao Sun, when his family wrote to the court for official business, so as to take in a cadre of Dongjiang called Huazi, he already belonged to sharing worries for the country and having great grace and his generation. Today, he ordered to send troops, and that was also an order that the imperial court had to obey, so this matter cannot be shirked, no matter what reason Kong Youde has, this soldier must be released.

In the end, seeing that the governor was in a bad mood and gave a tough order, Kong Youde and other Liao generals couldn't resist hard, so they could only nod their heads first and agree. There is no way, after all, people are under the roof, and if they eat people's money and food, they have to eliminate disasters with others.

As for what the Liao people planned in private, this is not enough for outsiders.

However, things soon took a turn for the better.

Just when Kong Youde was preparing the ships and grain and horse sergeants were preparing to land across the sea to support the Northeast War Situation, the Ministry of War came with another urgent official document: postpone the dispatch of troops, and after the soldiers and horses of Zhangchao arrived at the port, they would join forces and leave the Liao River estuary together.

This inconspicuous official document solved all the contradictions within Dengzhou's civil and military affairs overnight.

Who is the commander of Zhangchao? No one may have known about ꓹ before, but after the incident with King Ziqin, it is no exaggeration to say that this name is known all over the world. Now, even the guys in the grocery store in the capital know who the chief soldier of Zhangchao is.

Kong Youde was overjoyed.

There are two things to like.

As soon as ꓹ can fight side by side with the legendary Uncle Cao, who kills Tartar like killing chickens, this is a great thing for the Liao people who want to kill their homeland.

Second, there is a clear instruction on the official document that the coalition forces will take the chief general of Zhangchao as the main general. This is actually a great thing for Kong Youde, who is in the current situation: if things are not good when he goes to Liaodong, everyone can run away, right? Anyway, if something happens, the owner will be responsible, so that the contradiction will be transferred, and the Liao people will be on the side of Sun Yuanhua, who Zuo cares about the most, but there is no contradiction.

In line with these two happy attitudes, Kong Youde and his people seem to be full of war, but during this period of time, they are eager to see through, eagerly looking forward to the arrival of Cao's soldiers and horses, and they almost stand at the head of Dengzhou City every day to look at the sea.

The Liao people are like this, and Sun Yuanhua, who was watching from the sidelines, was naturally happy to see this happen: not to mention the strength of the reinforcements, Sun Yuanhua, who originally had the title of an expert in Western studies, was naturally interested in the Cao soldiers and horses armed with firearms, and he himself was very happy to communicate with Uncle Cao.

As for the last local aborigines of Dengzhou, this goes without saying. Today, the 13 provinces in the north and south of the Ming Dynasty, and even the Western Regions of the Desert outside the Saiwai Dynasty, the industrial products manufactured by the traverser have been distributed to the port. There is no such thing as a disapproval of the fleet among the business elites everywhere.

Dengzhou City, which is near the sea, is naturally not out of the ordinary. On the day that the official document arrived at the Yamen of the Governor's Palace, some of the crowd had already begun to stir.

In view of the above reasons, when the day of the defeat finally arrived in Dengzhou on the day of the defeat outside the Guan, the northbound support team disembarked at the beginning...... In the face of a huge team that includes all forces in Dengzhou, full of goodwill and warm welcome.

Sha Zhengming and others didn't expect the ending to be like this.

Sun Yuanhua, who personally led a large number of local officials to greet him, was emotionally nervous, and seemed to be a little flattered Kong Youde Geng Zhongming, as well as those "fathers and elders and county wangs" who were big bellied and sloppy in silk and satin on the periphery, and would never be lacking.

Not to mention the reason, since the local forces have expressed goodwill in all directions, Deputy General Sha and his entourage must have gone downhill and carried out their work quickly.

Later that day, the governor's yamen rarely opened its doors and set up flowing water seats. The famous dishes of the major restaurants jointly presented by the local "fathers" of Dengzhou and the "fathers and elders" of Laizhou next door who arrived early were sent to the table as if they did not need money, and the scene was much grander than when Sun Yuanhua took office.

During this period, Vice Admiral Sha, who was the guest of honor, finally had the opportunity to answer some questions that the hosts were generally concerned about...... For example, why didn't Uncle Cao arrive this time?

In ancient times, it was difficult to transmit information, so before this, the news received by Dengzhou only said in general terms that there was a fleet from the south to increase troops, and did not inform the generals in detail.

So the local officials thought that it was the same as the last Qinwang, and Uncle Cao led the team.

Sha Zhengming will quickly explain to everyone: Before receiving the military intelligence report from the imperial court, Lord Cao had already led the main force under his command to Haidong to compete for trade routes with Samoyed, and he was not in Guangdong.

And when Sha Zhengming, who stayed in Guangdong, received the military report, although he was "worried about the monarch's father", he was suffering from the departure of the army, so he had to take the only remaining battalion head thousands of miles away to help the war.

Hearing Vice Admiral Sha's explanation, the masters expressed their understanding. After all, it is not realistic to trouble Lord Cao to bring a large army to relieve the siege of the imperial court every time, and people are born in maritime business, and maritime trade is the foundation of Ansheng's life.

Then Vice Admiral Sha pushed Zhang Zhongqi out.

Zhang Zhongqi, one of the northern trio, is actually at the same level as Sha Zhengming in the military and political rankings within the traverser.

In the previous layout time, Zhang Zhongqi's public identity was only a small sum because of work needs. This time, his temporary appearance time was a bit tight, and he didn't have time to fill his official position, so he needed to be promoted.

For this so-called henchman who came out of nowhere, civil officials such as Sun Yuanhua don't care too much. However, for Kong Youde and others, this is more important, because they learned an important message without saying a few words during the banquet: Mr. Zhang participated in the whole process of the Qinwang operation.

The bustling flowing water mat gradually dissipates at the time of the lantern. After that, Sha Zhengming, the main general of the reinforcements, met with Sun Yuanhua alone.

This is the proper meaning of the title. After all, Sun Yuanhua is the governor of Denglai and the chief logistics officer of the operation. No matter what the guests want to do, including taking the opportunity to carry out industrial and commercial layout in Dengzhou Laizhou in the future, it is necessary to communicate with Sun Yuanhua in advance.

So Sha Zhengming opened the skylight and said something bright: In view of the lack of troops in the north this time, and he did not get a direct order from Uncle Cao, he probably would not take the initiative to fight with the Beiyu this time......

Sun Yuanhua expressed his understanding when he heard this, and expressed his appreciation for Deputy General Sha's outspoken style. After all, Lao Sun had just been pushed through Tai Chi by a subordinate Liao army general a few days ago, so he appreciated this style more.

At this moment, Sun Yuanhua, who knew it, nodded silently, indicating his attitude of agreement: After the two families joined forces this time, it was necessary to go to Liaodong, but they did not pursue the results of the battle.

The choice was the right one.

To put it bluntly, in this battle, the protagonists of the real singing drama are the fort-building faction led by the emperor and Sun Chengzong in the political aspect, and the Guanning warlord group in the military aspect; For example, the Cao clan who came to the north, or the soldiers and horses under the jurisdiction of the governor of Denglai, actually belonged to the supernumerary melon-eating masses.

Whoever takes the advantage will contribute, this is the basic principle, so Sun Yuanhua's bottom line is to send troops to fight in accordance with the orders of the imperial court. As for the results of the soldiers and horses sent out...... Lao Sun himself didn't believe it.

In history, Lao Sun repeatedly urged Kong Youde's 800 cavalry to go on the road, and the intention of giving the imperial court a mission in the middle could not be more obvious: what can the 800 Dongjiang cavalry do if the 100,000 people are in the general battle? If Kong Youde really had that ability, he would not be chased and cut by the Tartars every day, and he would be called Huazi by the imperial court.

In addition, there is the most important point: it is no secret that the imperial court is now suspicious of a certain general soldier in the south. Therefore, in the eyes of a scholar like Sun Yuanhua, no matter whether Uncle Cao is chasing huskies or Samoyeds, in short, it is really a wise choice to send fewer people to deal with errands like today.
