Chapter 90: Adults are like fathers.
Xinchang County ordered to surrender to the enemy, and he deserved to die.
But the innocent people in Xinchang County were harmed, and no less than 3,000 people were slaughtered this night.
Fortunately, the Tartars were also in a hurry, and did not have enough time to slaughter the city like Yangzhou and Jiading, and most of the people of Xinchang escaped this catastrophe.
But in this way, the news cannot be hidden.
Only then did the scout report to Wu Zheng.
After Wu Zheng learned about it, he immediately sent someone to transmit the information to Shaoxing Mansion.
Shaoxing Mansion's response this time was very fast.
Maybe it's because of the elite of Wei Wenyuan's 3,000 Ming Army.
There was no more mention of transfers.
The court is able to cooperate like never before.
In only three hours, Wei Wenyuan led 3,000 Ming troops to the south and went straight to the Three Realms to meet the enemy.
That's not all, Zhu Yihai made a lot of money this time, he ordered Liao Zhongping to lead all the guards to serve as a reserve team to press Wei Wenyuan's position.
Three thousand six to one thousand, Zhu Yihai is determined to win.
It is strange to say that from top to bottom of the imperial court, no one mentions Wu Zheng's Lianghu Guard, and it seems that at this time, more than 1,000 people in the Lianghu Guardhouse were selectively forgotten by the imperial court.
The entire Shaoxing Mansion was thus mobilized.
At least tens of thousands of civilians were recruited or spontaneously joined the coming battle, carrying them shoulder to shoulder and participating in the task of transporting grain and grass.
Although Wu Zheng was a little disappointed after hearing about the scout's return.
But the heart is still excited.
At this time, is there anything more exciting than being united as one?
Wu Zheng believed that the Ming army would definitely win this time, although when he met Wei Wenyuan before, Wei Wenyuan was a little arrogant, but this did not prevent Wu Zheng from judging him, Wei Wenyuan was a veteran.
Veterans know how to fight, and the battle itself tends to be weak and avoid the strong.
Veterans know how to work hard, and there is no ambiguity when it is time to work hard.
Therefore, Wu Zheng judged that even if this battle was not smooth, the final result must be the victory of the Ming army.
When Wu Zheng announced his judgment against the hundreds of households.
Li Ruhai disagreed.
He said: "It's not that subordinates have the ambition of others to be majestic. What the adults said sounded like it should be, but the adults forgot that after the Ming army retreated from Jiangbei, it never overcame. Of course, adults are the exception. ”
These days, Qian Qiaogong, who has always stood on the opposite side of Wu Zheng, has poured cold water on Wu Zheng.
"Wu Qianhu, although his subordinates do not have such outstanding achievements as adults, they have seen a few battles, the Ming army has been defeated repeatedly, and the people who have always been afraid of the people of Jianzhou. This time, if you hit the crowd well, it is indeed not difficult to win, but if you start unfavorably, you will definitely disperse in a hurry. Lianghu is a hundred miles away from the Three Realms, and it is still too late for adults to pull out the camp at this time. ”
Wu Zheng was a little unhappy.
No matter how big his opinion is about Zhu Yihai, Wu Zheng hopes that the Ming army will win this time.
Not for anything else, Wu Zheng understands the truth of cold lips and teeth.
Regarding Li Ruhai's words, Wu Zheng didn't believe a word.
From the official road outside Jiaxing Mansion to Jinshan Port, and then to Shining Street, three battles and three victories.
This was not fought by Wu, but by the Ming army and the civil righteous soldiers.
The soldiers of the Ming army did not lack the courage and skills to fight.
The Ming people do not lack the courage to protect their homeland.
For Wei Wenyuan's department, Wu Zheng knew very well that this was a well-trained army.
Even if the Tartars are cavalry, it is impossible for the Ming army to really fill in the flesh, Wu Zheng is not familiar with the terrain of the Three Realms, but there are mountains and rivers in the Three Realms, and Wu Zheng always knows.
Since there are mountains and rivers, the Ming army can rely on the advantages of mountains and rivers to resist the cavalry of the Tartars.
The most important thing is that the Tartars are alone in the depths, and if they do not solve this Ming army, they will not dare to come to Shaoxing Mansion.
Because then it is in danger of being encircled.
Coupled with the pressure of Liao Zhongping's department, it is difficult for Wu Zheng to imagine that with Liao Zhongping's calmness, even if Wei Wenyuan loses control for a while and loses his mind, Liao Zhongping's department can also arrive in time.
Calculated horizontally and vertically, Wu Zheng came to the conclusion that the Ming army would also win, it was nothing more than how many casualties there were.
For Li Ruhai and Qian Qiaogong's suggestions, Wu Zheng chose to enter the left ear and go out with the right ear.
It's right to worry about defeat before you fight, but it's too much to worry about the sky.
Wu Zheng ordered that all battalions of the guard station continue to train according to the original plan.
Five battalions and hundreds of households carried out the order and turned back, only Qian Qiaogong did not leave.
"Lord Wu, my subordinates think that it is better to send troops there, even if it is to catch up with a hundred miles and watch the excitement, that is, to lose a day's training time."
Wu Zheng frowned and said: "Qian Baihu, do you really think that this official is a small-bellied chicken intestine and has an awkward relationship with the imperial court?" Do you know why His Royal Highness would rather send Liao Qianhu's subordinates than give orders to this official? The official is moving too fast, hindering the eyes of some people, if you don't even know this, the official will become a thorn in everyone's side. This time, since the Ming army is victorious, why should this official join in this excitement again, melon fields and plums, and cause a commotion for no reason? ”
Qian Qiaogong smiled and said, "Lord Wu is expensive this year? ”
"I'll be eighteen after the New Year."
"That subordinate spends a year more than adults."
"Hmm."
"But my subordinates feel that adults are much older than my subordinates."
Wu Zheng replied casually: "Oh? ”
"Adults are like fathers."
"Uh......, Qian Baihu is serious, how dare this official compare with Lord Qian?"
Qian Qiaogong was a little angry, "The subordinate means that the adults and the father of the family have a city government. ”
Wu Zheng's face became uneasy.
"What exactly does Qian Baihu want to say?"
"I want to ask your lord to give an order to pull out the camp and go to the Three Realms."
"Not really."
"Then the subordinate will lead the cavalry battalion to go, and if there is nothing to do, it will only take half a day to return to the guard."
"Is this official right? It's not that the official doesn't want to go, but he wants to avoid suspicion! When your cavalry battalion goes, the matter of the war horse will be exposed, and not only the official will be punished, but Zhang Shangshu and Ling Zun will be affected. Forbid. ”
"Your Excellency has promised that the cavalry battalion will not be under the command of your Excellency."
"Uh......? But you are under the control of this official, do you dare to disobey? ”
This is true, Qian Qiaogong is a hundred households under Wu Zheng, so he is naturally controlled by Wu Zheng.
Qian Qiaogong was silent.
Wu Zheng was a little embarrassed, didn't say hello, and turned to leave.
……。
Wei Wenyuan has been in the military for more than ten years.
can climb to the position of pacification, not only by Wang Zhiren's support.
It was even more up to him to fight out.
Whether it is the Dashun rebels, or the Tartars.
Wei Wenyuan has faced it all.
It's just that the results of the two are different, against the rebel Wei Wenyuan, against the Tartars, lost.
But Wei Wenyuan doesn't think that he is a bad seed, he thinks that the reason for his failure still comes from the imperial court.
The imperial court was not strong-willed, and the military ministers refused to use their lives, which led to the collapse of the Hongwen Dynasty.
Now, he led 3,000 men to meet the Tartar Thousand Horsemen.
Wei Wenyuan was completely sure.
But Wei Wenyuan is not arrogant.
As soon as he arrived in the Three Realms, he ordered the people of the Three Realms to be recruited, set up fences along the official roads along the mountain, throw iron nails, and place horses to be rejected.
And set up crossbowmen and stones and rolling logs on the mountain.
It is done with a board a little, and it is decent.
Almost impeccable.
