Chapter 20 Poor Drinking Horse Riverside Bone 5

Walk three or four miles again, cross a small bridge, there is an earthen wall under the mountain, it is the garden of the Yuan Dynasty, there are several old willows still existing. More than 20 miles, over the Aoer Mountain, the road is as dangerous as the rooster mountain. The mountain rock is pressed down, there is a pressing trend, the river is under the river, the mountain road is steep, there is snow next to it, and it is condensed on the bank. It is also possible on the snow, but from time to time it collapses, which is terrifying. The traffic is so sudden that it makes people's hair tremble.

After crossing this mountain, the road gradually flattens. Zhu Di Lema climbed the high hill, summoned the left and right ministers, and pointed to the continuous mountains and mountains behind him: "The reason why this day is limited to the north and the south. ”

After a few days, after the army passed Xuanfu and Wanquan, it was stationed in Xinghe. Emperor Yongle ordered people to sacrifice the famous mountains and rivers where he passed through this trip. This is already outside the mouth, and there is a vast grassland in front of you, and the gray earth extends to the horizon, and at the end is the gray mountain, which lies across the sky.

Zhu Di stationed in front of the horse and said to the ministers: "You look at the terrain in the distance, it looks like a high fu, and when you get to it, it becomes flat again, which is the ridge of Yin Mountain, so it is cold, and it will be warmer after staying here." If the mountain is a trench and a gully is a pool, who can be light? ”

Yang Qi, Jin Youzi and others suddenly said: "It's like a holy oracle. ”

He Fu, Marquis of Ningyuan, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Emperor Taizu Gao has placed Dongsheng, Kaiping, Xinghe, Daning and other guards outside the Sai, and ordered the vassal king to guard the border. ”

The ministers listened to the face of the change of color, just because after the Yongle Emperor ascended the throne, the cutting of the domain was better than the Jianwen Emperor, Daning, Kaiping and other places were abandoned, Ning King Zhu Quan migrated to Nanchang, Liao King Zhu Zhi changed the title of Jingzhou, the King of Zhou was cut off the three guards, and studied medical books all day long, and the whole Ming Dynasty did not return to the grand occasion of the vassal king guarding the border, and at this moment He Fu mentioned the old things, isn't this a move against the scales?

Sure enough, Zhu Di's face immediately became gloomy, squinted his eyes and stared at He Fu, and looked at him for a while. Since he ascended the throne, the military generals of the Jianwen Dynasty have been almost cleaned up, and they no longer have the ability to make waves.

Sheng Yong, Ping'an and others were forced to commit suicide, Geng Bingwen and Guo Ying also died, and even Li Jinglong, who opened the door to welcome and surrendered, was also imprisoned. Now why did He Fu, who had fought with him, jump out and dare to openly accuse him, it seems that after returning to the court, Chen Ying must be asked to inquire carefully.

At this time, Yang Qi suddenly shouted to He Fu: "Marquis Ning Yuan, how to deal with the border guards, Your Majesty has his own measure, why bother you, you just have to obey orders." ”

He Fu was drunk by him, and suddenly woke up, although he was from the bottom of his heart, he was afraid that he had annoyed the emperor, so he hurriedly jumped off the horse to apologize.

Although Zhu Di had thousands of thoughts in his heart at this moment, he couldn't wait to kill this ignorant He Fu immediately, and said with a smile on his face: "Marquis Ning Yuan's words are reasonable, but I will send troops this time to destroy this remnant, and then set up guards everywhere, which can get twice the result with half the effort." ”

He Fu nodded again and again.

Zhu Di comforted him and said: "Marquis Ning Yuan, if you have been in charge of military affairs for a long time, I am afraid that you will attract criticism from many people." However, you are a veteran of the former dynasty, and I rely on it very much, so please don't worry. In the future, we must still be sincere. ”

He Fu hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed in thanksgiving.

The next day, Emperor Yongle swore an oath in the Xinghe military parade, only to see the six armies lined up, stretching for dozens of miles from east to west. The army is very prosperous, the banner is clear, the halberds are lined up, the iron horses are leaping, and the golden drums are vibrating.

Emperor Yongle was overjoyed, and said to the ministers on the left and right: "I have this array, who dares to be a baby!" You have not been in a big array, and you seem to feel a lot when you see this, and those who are used to seeing it are not aware of it. ”

Suddenly, the wind rose, the yellow sand was all over the sky, and there was no one on the opposite side, and everyone hurriedly collected their troops and returned to the camp, Zhu Di sighed: "I know the atmosphere of Shuofang today." ”

Suddenly saw that there was one more person under the tent, it was the British Duke Zhang Fu, Zhu Di smiled and said: "The British Prince, when did you come here?" ”

Zhang Fu knelt down and kowtowed, "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen has been here for a while. It happened that the wind was blowing, so he followed His Majesty back to the camp. ”

Zhu Di ordered him to be flat, and briefly asked about the affairs of Jiaozhi.

After Zhang Fu replied one by one, he advised Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, this place is already outside the fortress, our army has not set up a guard here, and the enemy situation is unknown. If the enemy army had taken advantage of this strong wind to attack our battalion just now, our army would be in danger. Therefore, Weichen is willing to ask His Majesty to move to Shuntianfu, and Weichen will lead his troops north to defeat Hulu. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Di said unhappily: "The British Duke traveled thousands of miles to Xinghe, and he worked hard all the way, so he stayed here to train and supervise the grain. ”

Zhang Fu was hit with a nail, so he had to retreat silently and stay in Xinghe to train troops and supervise food.

After a few more days, the army set out from Mingluanshu, climbed the mountains and crossed the mountains, and passed through a valley, only to see that the surrounding hills were flat and not very high, and there were antlers stuck in the ground in the road, about several feet long, and the teeth were like branches. After a few miles, the flat mountain gradually ends, and there is a mountain in the northeast that is quite high.

The personal soldier who led the way said to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, this is Da Boyan Mountain." Zhu Di nodded. Turning the mountain road again, there is a mountain in the northwest that is very long, faintly haunting among the clouds and mist, like sea waves cascading. The soldier said: "Your Majesty, this is Xiao Boyan Mountain." ”

Zhu Di looked at the map and said, "This mountain is also known as Lingxiao Peak. We must climb high and look far away, and feel the momentum of the overwhelming peak. ”

After a short time, Zhu Di led everyone to climb to the top of Lingxiao Peak, this mountain is stony, the barren grass under the mountain is endless, looking north dozens of miles away, only to see the barren grass and vines, thousands of miles of depression, and there are flat mountains very long.

Zhu Di said to Yang Qi, Hu Guang, Jin Youzi and others: "When the Yuan Dynasty was prosperous, there were all residential houses here. Now it's all abandoned. ”

Jin Youzi said: "Your Majesty's trip will definitely be able to annihilate the remnants and return the people to a peaceful world." ”

Zhu Di smiled: "Borrow your auspicious words." 126 Chinese Net

Yang Qi said: "Your Majesty, the ministers have benefited a lot from this trip, and there is a way to get it on paper, and they will never know that they have to bow to it." ”

Zhu Di said: "You are right, people who have not done this, every word is stuffed in the north, but imagine the ear, An can get the truth." ”

Zhu Di watched for a long time. Seeing that there are two ways in the grass, Zhu Di said to the three ministers: "The road traveled by this yellow sheep and wild horses is also." ”

The three of them were amazed.

At five o'clock on this day, Zhu Di's car set off from the East Road, and Yang Qi, Jin Youzi, and Hu Guang traveled to the West Road, walking about 30 miles, and the sky was bright, but there was no trace of Zhu Di's car.

Yang Qi and the other three were led by the whistle horse but strayed into the unknown valley, only to see the mountains overlapping, the top is full of stones, there is a spring at the bottom of the mountain and a ditch is very clear, everyone is a little tired, so they drink the horse. The water and grass next to the spring are abundant, and the huge valley is empty. But seeing the antlers all over the ground, or occasionally seeing the tombs of people's abandoned residences, it makes people feel creepy.

Suddenly, an arrow flew out of nowhere, and it actually hit Jin Youzi's saddle bridge, and the arrow was so powerful that it actually shot his saddle bridge.

Jin Youzi was so frightened that he shouted: "There are thieves." And he fell from his horse.

When Hu Guang heard that there was a thief, he didn't look back, and hurriedly fled with the sentry scout.

Yang Qi hurriedly helped Jin Youzi onto the horse, but his saddle was cracked and he couldn't ride, Yang Qi hurriedly gave his horse to him to ride, he rode Jin Youzi, a war horse without a saddle, and the two also fled in a hurry.

Dozens of arrows flew next, all behind their horses.

It turned out that it was the soldiers who lured the enemy led by Zhang Shixing who were ambushed here, and the sergeant under him was puzzled: "Commander Zhang, there are only a few of them, why don't you capture them, it can be regarded as a great achievement." ”

Zhang Shixing said: "They are just a few civil servants, what's the use of capturing them?" I let them go, just to report to Zhu Di and lead his army to chase him. ”

Only then did the sergeants understand what he meant. In fact, Zhang Shixing saw his compatriots and didn't want to kill more, so he really had to make a move.

Yang Qi and Jin Youzi traveled dozens of miles in the canyon, and gradually saw several soldiers driving donkeys by, and asked where the camp was, but they didn't know anything. The two of them went forward for dozens of miles, the mountain turned deep, climbed the high hill to look at the northwest of the river, the depression was unmanned, and then rode back to the main road, suddenly a military commander passed by, saw the two of them, also dismounted and sat in the grass together, and asked where to stay and did not know. The military commander went to the southeast valley to find the big camp, and Jin Youzi and the others went from the northeast, and there were more and more chariots and horses, but they couldn't find them. Walk more than ten miles, meet the person gradually return, is from the northeast mountain gorge in the middle of the line, the south mountain of the gorge is all soil, and the north mountain is full of stone walls, the rock is steep. There are small stones and big stones, and the stacking heights are like those made by people. Since Xinghe has come to this point, there is no inch of wood in the land, but there is only grass in the wilderness. However, half of this stone wall, a raw cypress tree, very verdant and lovely, such as the one planted in the flower garden of the people in the south of the Yangtze River. Jin Youzi shouted to Yang Qi: "This is also a wonder. ”

The two traveled more than ten miles in the canyon and returned from exhaustion. Suddenly, they met two lieutenants, saying that they were coming to look for them by the emperor's order, and the two of them were relieved.

At this time, it was already dark, and everyone dismounted and walked slowly, climbed over mountain after mountain, hovering on the top of the mountain, not knowing where the road was going. After two more mountains, there is a trail between the mountains to the southeast. The moon was dim, the phosphorus fire was shining in the distance, and the wind was gloomy. After traveling more than ten miles, crossing a large river, looking northeast, bypassing the foot of the mountain, there is a spring gurgling and flowing, and everyone rests for a night among the barren grass.

Early in the morning, everyone looked southeast from the mountains for more than dozens of miles, and faintly heard the sound of copper horns across the valley. After another mountain, seeing the Ming army advancing, everyone immediately pressed their horses forward five or six miles, went to investigate, and the soldier replied: "This is the Zuoye military horse." He also said that the chariot drove fifty miles forward to camp, and then went with him.

At noon, everyone finally saw Zhu Di, and Zhu Di was overjoyed and said: "Why is Shanshan too late?" ”

Yang Qi and Jin Youzi described the story in detail.

Zhu Di praised Yang Qi, and Yang Qi said modestly: "This is where the affection between wingmen and friends lies, and in terms of friendship, I just did my duty." ”

Zhu Di was a little dissatisfied: "Isn't Hu Guang your colleague?" ”

Yang Qi explained: "At that time, the enemy situation was urgent, and he also focused on the overall situation, so he wanted to come back as soon as possible to report the news. Luckily, we're all safe. ”

Zhu Di nodded and said: "It seems that Hu Lu is close to the left, and he should be chased away with light horses." ”

Zhu Di then selected 100,000 light horsemen, each with a ration for 20 days, and rushed north. The rest of the sergeants, led by Wang You, Marquis of Qingyuan, followed.

Yang Qi and other ministers asked to go with them. Zhu Di said affectionately: "If you can't fight, it's useless." The future is difficult, and I can't wait for it for a while, or because I'm tired, wouldn't it be better for you to stay in the camp? Yang Qi, Jin Youzi and others kowtowed and thanked them, and they were grateful.

On the first day of the first month of May, the army crossed a hill, saw the Luqu River in the distance, Zhu Di climbed to the top of it, looked at the following around, only to see the northeast flow of the river, the water flow is fast. The two sides of the strait are mountainous, very beautiful, and there are many elm willows on the shore. There is a sandbar in the water, the reeds are luxuriant, there are more than a foot long, it is said that this grass can not be fed to horses, and horses are sick after eating. There are many fish in the water, and the fat is abnormal.

Zhu Di rushed down the hill, came to the Yuqu River, immediately for a long time, recalled that a year ago the Ming army was defeated here, 100,000 troops were wiped out, and the Jingnan Ming General was lost, he couldn't help but feel sad, so he ordered people to place offerings by the river to pay tribute to the heroic soul. And renamed the river "Drinking Horse River".

Suddenly, dozens of horsemen rushed across the river, seeing that the armor was dressed by the Ming army, but they all took off their helmets, and they were the first person, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, looking familiar.

The man shouted to Zhu Di: "Yan thief, do you still recognize me?" ”

Zhu Di looked at it intently and couldn't help but be surprised.
