Volume 1 Mountains and Rivers Change Hands Chapter 10 I still remember General Li 9
When the southern army under the city saw it, they hurriedly ran back to the front of the battle to tell Sheng Yong. Sheng Yong rode to the edge of the moat, looked at the city, and saw that the woman was richly dressed, young and beautiful, but he did not recognize this person, so he pointed at the city with his horsewhip and shouted: "Who are you, and who is your grandfather?" ”
When the woman in the city saw Sheng Yong coming, she thought it was the enemy's commander, so she shouted loudly: "I am Concubine Guo of the King of Gaoyang County, and my grandfather is Guo Ying, Marquis of Wuding, who are you, I want to see my grandfather." ”
Sheng Yong gasped when he heard this, he had heard that Guo Hou had a granddaughter who married the prince as a concubine, but he didn't expect that it was Zhu Gaoxu, the son of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and the king of Gaoyang County, this matter was really difficult to do. If he forcibly ordered to continue the siege of the city, in case he injured Concubine Guo, it would be difficult for Guo Hou to deal with him. If the siege of the city is stopped, in case the imperial court investigates it and says that he communicated with the Yan thief, then his head will not be safe. After thinking about it, Sheng Yong decided to invite Guo Hou to come and solve the matter, and everything would be fine as long as he was ordered.
So Sheng Yong ordered Pegasus to go to the camp to inform Guo Ying of the matter, and ordered the soldiers to withdraw to the front of the battle for the time being, waiting for the order.
After Guo Ying heard the announcement, his face was expressionless, but he said lightly that he knew, and then ordered the messenger to retreat.
He already knew that his granddaughter Guo Xianrong was married to Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Gaoyang County, as the main concubine, and there was a granddaughter Guo Derong married to the son Zhu Gaochi as the side concubine, their Guo family and the Yan Wang family are sons and daughters, and have a close relationship. See, if he is referred to by the imperial history, saying that he colluded with traitors, it is indispensable to lose his official position and remove his lord, and even lose his life. I don't see it, after all, she is her granddaughter, and she is connected by flesh and blood, and it is not easy to see her second son Guo Ming when she goes home.
After much deliberation, Guo Ying decided to meet again to see what they wanted to do.
In order to hide people's eyes, Guo Ying boarded a watchtower car, ordered someone to push to the city wall, the watchtower car is high and the city, everything on the city wall can be seen clearly, only to see a young woman lying on the battlement mouth and looking around, it is his second son Guo Ming's second daughter Guo Xianrong, Guo Ying whispered: "Xianrong, Xianrong, I am grandpa." ”
That Guo Xianrong raised his head, followed the prestige, saw Guo Ying, jumped up happily, and greeted the city tower: "Sister, sister, come quickly, grandpa is here." ”
Guo Ying made a silent gesture and said, "Be quiet, Xianrong, if you have anything to say, hurry up, it will be troublesome for people to see it." ”
At this time, a young woman rushed out of the city tower and came to Guo Xianrong's side, it was her sister Zhu Gaochi's concubine Guo Derong, the two bowed down together, and said to Guo Ying: "Grandpa save us." ”
Guo Ying hurriedly waved his hand at them and said, "Good granddaughter, don't be polite, there are many people here, you have something to say quickly, how do you want grandpa to save you?" ”
Guo Derong's teary-eyed Guo Ying said: "Grandpa, please don't attack the city for the time being, I will go back and persuade the prince to return to the court, as long as the court can forgive his crimes." ”
Guo Xianrong also said: "I will also go to persuade my husband and let him return to the court." ”
Guo Ying hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Okay, what you asked, I already know, go back quickly, I can't do anything about this matter, I have to ask Cao Guogong to decide." ”
With that, he hurriedly ordered the men who were pushing the cart below to leave the city wall and turn back to the front of the battle. He climbed down the watchtower, returned to the camp and sat down, and urgently invited Sheng Yong to discuss the matter, and when Sheng Yong came, he retreated left and right, and told Sheng Yong what his two granddaughters had invited.
Guo Ying urged: "Commander Sheng, I regard you as a confidant, how to deal with this matter, you have an idea." ”
Sheng Yong didn't want to get involved in this matter, for fear of getting into trouble, but when Guo Ying asked at this moment, he had no choice but to ask rhetorically: "Guo Hou, is it war or peace, what are your own plans?" ”
Guo Ying saw that he had the intention of prevarication, so he sighed and said, "I am in Lushan, and every inch is in chaos, so I asked Commander Sheng to come and guide me." For the sake of how old the old man is, he treats you well on weekdays, even if he is your brother, please give me advice. ”
As soon as Sheng Yong heard this, he hurriedly stood up and apologized to Guo Ying: "Where did Guo Hou speak, Sheng Yong regarded Guo Hou as his father on weekdays, how dare he call him a brother." However, the matter is serious, in case of the Yan thief's delaying plan, we will be punished by the imperial court, and from the next point of view, this matter should be reported to Cao Guogong to decide. ”
Guo Ying saw that he didn't have any good ideas, so he nodded helplessly and said, "You are right, this matter should be done according to the order." If Cao Guogong does not allow the invitation, he will definitely ask us to attack the city with all our might? ”
Sheng Yong comforted Guo Ying and said: "On the day the city is broken, the subordinates must instruct the soldiers not to hurt the two Guo concubines. ”
Guo Ying had no choice but to sigh and say, "Now it seems that it can only be like this." If my two granddaughters have three longs and two shorts, when they return to Beijing, the old man really doesn't know how to face the second child. ”
While he was talking, the guards came to report, saying that it was Zhang Shixing, the commander of Xiaolingwei, who asked to see him, Guo Ying was taken aback when he heard the report, could it be that something happened to Pingzemen? He hurriedly ordered someone to invite him in.
Zhang Shi marched into a big tent, and after the ceremony to Guo and Sheng was finished, Guo Ying invited him to sit down and asked, "Commander Zhang, how is the battle situation on the other side of Pingzemen?" ”
Zhang Shixing said: "It's hard to say. So he told in detail how he climbed the city wall, how he captured Xu Miaoyun, and how he negotiated peace with Zhang Xin, but omitted the story of accidentally injuring Xu Miaojin.
Guo Ying and Sheng Yong listened, the two looked at each other and smiled, Guo Ying said: "It seems that this Yan thief is really desperate, and he actually used the palace girl to guard the city." ”
Zhang Shixing hurriedly said: "Guo Hou and Sheng are in command, it just so happens that the two of you are here, whether you are fighting or peace, take an idea." ”
Guo Ying smiled: "What does Commander Zhang want? "Worry-free love book network
Zhang Shixing didn't think about it, and said quickly: "After all, King Yan is His Majesty's fourth uncle, and the emperor doesn't want to kill them all, so he once issued an edict saying that Uncle Wang should not be injured, and he must be captured alive." I thought that the troops of Beiping City were weak and could not be broken in a few days, and the prince could not hold on, and it was normal for people to want to surrender. The court should grant his request, grant surrender, and pardon his sins. They are all the people of the Ming Dynasty, so why fight to the death. ”
Guo Ying and Sheng Yong nodded again and again when they heard this, and said, "Commander Zhang is reasonable. ”
Zhang Shixing saw that both of them agreed to the peace talks, so he took out Zhang Xin's letter and the general book of Tianmu in Beiping Mansion from his bosom and handed them to Guo Ying.
Guo Ying looked at it and praised Zhang Shixing again and again: "Commander Zhang is really proper, and even the evidence has been brought." Now it's easy to talk about Cao Guogong's side. ”
Sheng Yong also praised on the side: "In black and white, I can't help but Cao Guogong doesn't believe it." ”
Zhang Shixing said to Guo Ying: "Since Guo Hou agrees to surrender, I will sign this letter, and I will go to Cao Guogong's office to ask him to make a final decision." ”
Guo Ying thought for a while, then signed a "four" letter at the end of the letter, returned the letter to Zhang Shixing along with the account book, and said, "Then there is Lao Zhang's command." If Cao Guogong asked about this, he would say that I also agree. ”
Guo Ying was at home for four, and Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang called him Guo Si, so Guo Ying used this character as his own signature.
Zhang Shixing was deeply disappointed when he saw that Guo Ying was just signing a flower charge, and he didn't say anything, but he couldn't say anything, took the letter and the account book, put it back in his arms, and got up to say goodbye.
He went out of the camp, beat his horse out of the city, looked to the northeast direction, and came to the camp of Li Jinglong in Zhengcunba in less than an hour.
I saw the flags in front of me, the embroidered ribbons fluttering, the camp back to the city facing the river, stretching for dozens of miles, people shouting horses neighing, orderly. Zhang Shixing not only secretly admired that this Cao Guogong Li Jinglong was really good at leading the troops, no wonder Taizu had a good eye for him when he was alive.
Zhang Shixing showed his waist card, slowly came to the big tent of the Chinese army, jumped off his horse, and explained his intention to the guards. The guards went in and came out after a while, leading Zhang Shixing inside.
As soon as Zhang Shixing entered the account, Li Jinglong stepped forward and shook his hands and said, "Commander Zhang is really brave, he single-handedly killed the head of the city and almost captured Princess Yan alive." ”
Zhang Shixing was secretly frightened, this Cao Guogong news is so well-informed, presumably someone in his own camp or Guo Ying's camp has already reported to him in advance.
Zhang Shixing hurriedly bowed down and saluted: "Humble and untalented, insulting the mission, please punish the general." ”
Li Jinglong said with a smile: "What a crime you have, although you have not completed the whole work, it is enough to make the enemy frightened and set an example for the whole army." This duke will definitely ask for credit to the court for you. ”
Zhang Shixing saw that he didn't mention the surrender at all, and he didn't know what he meant, whether he didn't know it or he really didn't know, so he boldly said: "I came here this time, and I have something important to tell you." ”
Li Jinglong looked at him, his smile gradually disappeared, and he said, "Commander Zhang, what do you have to tell you?" ”
Zhang Shixing took out the letter of invitation to surrender and handed it to Li Jinglong, and told Zhang Xin what he said.
After Li Jinglong saw it, he didn't say a word, and handed it to Gao Wei, the counselor of military affairs next to him, and after Gao Wei saw it, he said to Zhang Shixing seriously: "Commander Zhang, if this is a delaying tactic for the Yan thieves and delays the siege, you and I can't afford to bear the blame." ”
Zhang Shixing thought for a while and said: "In order to save the people in the world, it is worth waiting for us in the past three days, even if we will break my Zhang Shixing into thousands of pieces in the future, we will not hesitate." ”
Li Jinglong smiled slightly and said: "Commander Zhang, you sent an order to Guo Hou, just say that the city will be attacked for days, the soldiers are tired, and after three days of repair, the city will be attacked again." ”
Zhang Shixingqi said: "Does Cao Guogong still want to attack the city, don't you write a pardon document?" ”
Li Jinglong said coldly: "Although the emperor gave me the right to expropriate, but the situation is unclear, how can the pardon be issued indiscriminately." When I enter Beiping, I will make a decision. Commander Zhang asked him to return to the camp as soon as possible to prepare, and then attack Beiping in three days. ”
Zhang Shixing had no choice but to quit the camp.
Li Jinglong snorted when he saw him walking away, and said to Gao Wei: "A person like him who doesn't know anything and doesn't understand popular things, if he is not an old man in the East Palace, and the emperor is promoted again, how can he be a young man with a high position as a commander of the three ranks?" ”
Gao Wei said: "I heard that Commander Zhang has Mongolian blood, so he has a simple atmosphere, so he is deeply favored by the emperor and will be of great use in the future." Cao Guogong still has to accept this person deeply. ”
Li Jinglong said lightly: "I know, I have my own measure." ”
