Chapter 107: The City Gate Opens South

As Chang Yu expected, the more than 50 miles of mountain road takes too long, when you get out of the valley, the sky is already dark, it is estimated that it should be about seven or eight o'clock in the evening, this place is still twenty or thirty miles away from Xuanfu, but out of the mountain, the road is flat, at most one and a half hours can be reached.

"Father-in-law Chang, there is a big village a few miles ahead, the name of the village is Gujiaying, can you rest for a while" A Jinyi guard ran to Chang Yu's car to report, since he met the thief in Chimney Mountain, he asked all the spies of Jinyi Wei to report the information directly to him as soon as possible.

"It's okay, the order goes down to rest, all guards must not relax, don't be careless because you go out of the mountain" Chang Yu knows how worried he is about this way, it's okay during the day, if he is ambushed in the mountains at night, it will be miserable!

The team temporarily camped outside Gujiaying Village to rest, Chang Yu got out of the car and stretched his waist to relieve himself, and then took Chunxiang and a few people to ride into the village for a walk, but found that this was just a dilapidated village, and it was late at this time, and the villagers had already gone to bed.

Returning in defeat, Chang Yu returned to the team and began to check on the injuries of the wounded.

Before leaving Beijing, he had already explained that Chunxiang had taken a lot of wound medicine from the imperial doctor in case of emergency, and now it finally came in handy.

The injuries of the eunuch army were not serious, some were sprained by chasing thieves up the mountain, some were injured by falling from horses, and the most serious one was only cut by a thief with a leg injury.

However, the soldiers of Teng Xiangwei, who had been on the front line, were relatively serious, with arrow wounds and knife wounds, and the injuries were both severe and light.

Although Chang Yu is not a professional doctor, after all, he comes from later generations, and he has much more basic medical knowledge than these people, plus he is a boxer, injuries are commonplace, and he is full of experience in healing.

After some inspection, the team was almost finished, and Chang Yu ordered to set off immediately, and he would enter the city no matter how late he was tonight.

After traveling for more than half an hour at night, the team finally arrived outside Xuanfu City, and Chang Yu was really relieved.

Xuanfu is also Xuanfu Town (now Zhangjiagang Xuanhua) one of the nine important towns of the Ming Dynasty, the border wall under its jurisdiction starts from the east of Yongguan Sihaizhi, the west reaches Yanggao County, the total length is 1,116 miles, the side pier under the jurisdiction is 1,274, and the mouth is 192 places.

Xuanfu Town as one of the nine border towns, garrison troops are also abundant, according to the records of Longqing three years, the full amount of more than 151,000, more than 55,200 war horses, after many years of escape, in fact, the strength of more than 83,300, the remaining 32,004 war horses.

Key reminder, this is the record of Emperor Longqing, it is now the year of Chongzhen, and it is the end of the Ming Dynasty, how much is it? Chang Yu doesn't know, but it will definitely not exceed 50,000!

But the annual salary of 120,000 main soldiers is indispensable!

At this time, in the middle of the night, the city gate had already been closed, Wu Mengming drove his men to call the door, but he didn't want to be rejected by the other party, even if he took out the Jinyi Wei waist card, it still didn't work, and finally brought out the name of the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and the officers and soldiers in the city let him wait a while, and asked for instructions.

"I didn't think that the precautions here are so strict, and it is still so good to enter the city in the Guannai"

Wu Mengming felt incredible.

Chang Yu felt a little relieved, after all, it was one of the nine important towns, so it should be like this.

After waiting for a while, a guerrilla general came to the city to check the waist card, but he wanted to wait a little longer, and he needed to ask for instructions, and then Wu Mengming's face turned dark, and even Chang Yu was a little angry.

But think of the guerrilla general as a low-ranking officer, and in such a border town, he does not have the right to open the city in the middle of the night.

According to the specifications of Xuanfu Town, a general military officer was set up from the seventh year of Yongle, and then a deputy general soldier was stationed in Xuanfu Town, and then moved to Yongning City in the twenty-eighth year of Jiajing.

In addition to the chief and deputy commanders-in-chief, there are seven sub-guards, but they are not stationed in Xuanfu Town, but are stationed in various roads under its jurisdiction.

There are also three guerrilla generals, two officers in the camp, 31 garrisons, and two foremen.

After waiting for about half an hour, just when Chang Yu was a little impatient, there was finally movement in the city, and a person stood on it and shouted, but it turned out that it was Wang Chengyin, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, who arrived.

After all, it is an important town, after all, it is late at night when an army of thousands of people from unknown origin comes to the city to call the door, and it is worth the time of war, so he is not allowed to be careless.

Military Department Clerks? No!

Talismans? No!

But Wu Mengming scolded at the bottom of the city: Lao Tzu Jinyi's commander can still be fake, and the waist card and seal are not fake!

Obviously, Wang Chengyin in the city is a particularly careful person and does not want to open the door, but between Wu Mengming, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, the golden signboard is very difficult, first said that after the dawn was categorically refused to open the door, he finally had to send someone to hang down from the city, and after checking the silver car and many Jinyi Wei waist cards and other two Wei waist cards, it was confirmed that it was not fake, after all, no one can pretend to be Jinyi Weifu military guards and Teng Xiangwei at the same time these years, even if the clothing can be faked, those waist cards can not be faked!

The city gate was opened, and Wang Chengyin personally greeted him with a smile and apologized again and again: "I have to do it at a very moment"

But Wu Mengming's anger did not decrease, and he kept silent with a black face.

And Chang Yu didn't leave Wang Chengyin's figure from the moment he entered the city.

This middle-aged general military officer in his forties has been a general under Yuan Chenghuan and Cao Wenzhao, and in the second year of Chongzhen, he joined the Beijing division with Yuan Chenghuan, and also ambushed the Qing army with Cao Wenzhao, but this person has no merit and has passive war avoidance behavior, and he still mixed with the general army ten years later, which shows that there is really no general available at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

But the reason why Chang Yu remembers him deeply is because Xuanfu Town was lost by him when he opened the city gate and surrendered.

People can't look good, looking at the upright man in front of him, Chang Yu couldn't imagine why he opened the door and surrendered to the thief army without resisting.

Should this person be killed?

After Wang Chengyin welcomed Wu Mengming and others into the city, he immediately arranged for the soldiers to go to the barracks to rest, and the silver chariot was directly escorted to his general military mansion.

Wu Mengming had earlier received instructions from Chang Yu that the silver chariot must be stationed in the barracks under the protection of the eunuch army, so he rejected Wang Chengyin's proposal.

Wang Chengyin didn't insist, he passed the order according to Wu Mengming's requirements, and then under the leadership of a Chinese officer, Jinyi Wei, Fu Junwei and Teng Xiangwei went to the barracks with the silver chariot.

And Wu Mengming and others were invited to the General Soldier's Mansion, and it was at this time that Wang Chengyin noticed Chang Yu's existence, to be precise, he noticed Chang Yu's carriage and more than a dozen strong men wearing armor such as Chunxiang next to the car.

It was already unexpected for a Jinyi guard commander to personally escort the salary, how could he follow another carriage, looking at the guards outside the car, it should be a figure inside, and it seems that the shelf is not small, and he has never shown his face since he entered the city.

"Lord Wu, who is in the car?"

On the way to the General Soldier's Mansion, Wang Chengyin couldn't help but ask.

"In the Palace"

Wu Mengming replied plausibly and then stopped speaking, which made Wang Chengyin even more puzzled, the people in the palace will not be the emperor's prince or concubine, it is very likely to be the eunuch of the supervising army, but how can the eunuch of the supervising army still put such a big score now, not that the battle is big, but how can he also be a general soldier, and the eunuch of the supervising army will also say hello and be polite when he sees it, but this person does not even show his face, when he is Wei Zhongxian.
