【0339 Mao Chenglu】

"Fight! It's time to fight! I want to fight too! Who wouldn't want to kill Jiannu? If you don't kill Jiannu, you will either be killed by Jiannu or be a slave of Jiannu! Mao Chenglu nodded heavily, and continued to say in a deep voice: "However, working hard with Jiannu, that is the last resort, the last step!" When there's no way back, take this step, right? ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't understand what Mao Chenglu wanted to say, so they nodded one after another.

"We're not there yet! We're not at the end of our rope yet! I told my father many times that at least don't block the road with the Manchurians, but my father didn't listen, and he didn't take the good road! Mao Chenglu said, looked at the crowd, saw that some people looked uncertain, and hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean that we want to take refuge in Manchuren and Jiannu, I definitely don't mean that!" But the support given to us by the imperial court is not enough, military salaries, grain and grass, arrows, what do you want, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice! Don't do everything, do you? ”

Everyone said yes, hearing Mao Chenglu say this, their eyes widened, and they didn't look at Mao Wenlong, they all looked at the ground in front of them. All secretly wondered, what did Mao Chenglu's words mean, did he take everyone to join Jiannu?

"Tell me, there are tens of thousands of people in Jiannu, how long have you been fighting with the thousands of people in Zhangpan? Isn't this a clear plan to destroy the defenders of Jinzhou City? How many people are there here, count them yourself, can the sailors of several islands together beat a hundred-man Jiannu cavalry team? Not to mention a hundred people, can we fight thousands of sailors on land who are good at riding and archery? Brother Qianshui slashed and killed the Jiannu Iron Rider head-on on the case, and didn't let people chop it all like a watermelon? Seeing that no one contradicted him, Mao Chenglu couldn't help but increase his tone, raised his voice, and looked like he was bitter and heart-wrenching: "But Jiannu is not ten people, but tens of thousands!" What is it? If you really want to fight, isn't it like an egg hitting a stone? Isn't it? It doesn't matter if I'm dead, I can't watch you good brothers who follow me touch stones! ”

Everyone didn't say anything anymore, because what Mao Chenglu said was the truth, and everyone was silent and frowned, and there was a lifeless atmosphere.

There was only the sound of heavy breathing and the beeping sound of a charcoal basin.

"Zhang Pan Lin Maochun defended Jinzhou City, and refused to break through to death! They are powerful, they are not afraid of death! I asked myself. For I have brothers in my heart, and you in them. I don't take the lives of my men as seriously as they do, and I can't watch everyone die! Mao Chenglu saw that his words seemed to work, and continued: "Isn't it?" Do I ignore what I'm saying? Let's talk about it. ”

"Big brother, what do you do to your brothers, everyone looks at them every day, you didn't say anything to everyone!"

"Yes, we all obey the words of the eldest brother!"

"Big brother will do what he says!"

"Big brother asked me to go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire, I don't have a word."

A group of people stood up excitedly and made a statement.

Originally, they didn't have any faith, they all relied on food and a place to live, and the army that was kneaded together by emotion was not much different from Liuzi and bandits.

They don't have a court, only the boss, Mao Wenlong is the boss, and their boss is Mao Chenglu.

Mao Chenglu saw that everyone's attitude was unanimous, and those few people who were loyal to Mao Shuai also nodded in agreement, and his heart settled down a little, and hurriedly said to everyone: "Okay, brothers, okay, everyone sit, sit down and say!" ”

The crowd sat down again.

"I have a letter here, I've been writing it for a while, and I haven't sent it out, let's discuss it, okay, let's send it! No, I'll burn it now, let's just treat it as if there is no such thing, where to start, where to go. What do you think? Mao Chenglu regained his deep voice.

Everyone looked up at the letter in Mao Chenglu's hand.

You can probably guess what is written.

"Big brother, there are few of us who can read, what is written, you can just talk about it, you don't need to show it to us."

"Yes, big brother, tell me about it."

"Okay, let me tell you, it's nothing, it's just to tell the Jiannu Khan that it is our duty to defend the land, not to be an enemy of Jiannu, as long as they don't come to attack the islands around our Jinzhou Peninsula, the sailors on our island will not go ashore to be the enemy of the Jiannu army." Mao Chenglu understated. In fact, the content of the letter is all flattery, and it is already a standard book! Mao Chenglu wants to leave a way out for himself in advance before the situation deteriorates.

No one is a fool, no one present said anything, and the army understands it, but including Mao Chenglu's cronies, they are not willing to go over to join Jiannu, everyone is Han, and they all know what Jiannu is like to the Han people. Even if these people don't have much sense of state and nationality, they don't want to be slaves in their bones.

Mao Chenglu saw the knot in everyone's hearts and said: "This is an expedient measure for me, not a book." If we can have a good relationship with Jiannu, we won't suffer! Think about it, how many people are there to build slaves? How much territory is Liaoxi alone? And Mongolia, and North Korea, and the Northeast, how much territory? When the time comes, they will have to provide for us, at least a large piece of land for each of us! When we secretly accumulate strength, and then recapture Shenyang in one fell swoop, how much credit is this? ”

Everyone didn't believe this, and said that you were close at hand, and you didn't even dare to rescue Jinzhou City, so you dared to attack Shenyang?

However, this fig leaf makes most people feel that it doesn't seem so shameful to take refuge in Jiannu, after all, it is to accumulate strength, and then turn back, not to mention that Mao Chenglu did not directly say that he surrendered to Jiannu.

"What does everyone mean, let's talk about it, seeing that Jinzhou City is about to be broken! What is going on on the Dongjiang side now, we don't know yet, if it drags on, when the entire Jinzhou Peninsula is returned to Jiannu, on the Dongjiang side, Mao Shuai can't stand anymore, it's too late to beg with Jiannu. Mao Chenglu urged while the iron was hot.

"Big brother, I'll see it!" One of Mao Chenglu's cronies took the lead.

A few people immediately chimed in, but half of them remained silent.

Mao Wenlong frowned, "It's useless for just a few of you to agree, this matter is everyone's business, and everyone has to agree!" We must all speak up today! I still say what I said just now, everyone thinks it is true, so I will ask people to send the letter by fast boat, and then take the dry road to Shenyang to ask to see Nurhachi! If you don't think it's okay, we shouldn't have it. However, when Jiannu really called, and we had no way out, don't say that I didn't find a way out for everyone in advance. ”

"You all talk!"

"I think it's very good for the eldest brother to retreat into advance, anyway, we don't really surrender."

Several of Mao Chenglu's cronies began to lobby other sailor generals.

After a while, everyone agreed to send someone to deliver the letter.

"It's not enough to just agree, it's all signed! One of us counts one, and we are all brothers in the same boat! Mao Chenglu said spicily. His meaning is very clear, if you fail, everyone will be unlucky together, there is no reason for me to pave the road alone, I am unlucky alone, you just take advantage.

Everyone looked at each other, and then looked at Mao Chenglu and several of Mao Chenglu's hardcore cronies, and they all secretly thought, if they don't sign, I'm afraid that they won't be able to get out of this big account today! I had to agree to sign them one by one.

After everyone signed it, a collective cooperation letter was completed!

"Good! Chen Guangfu, you take a few brothers, take a fast boat by water, take a few horses, and then take a dry road to Gaizhou, and try to meet Nurhachi! Mao Chenglu saw that the overall situation had been decided, and happily said to a cronie beside him.

Chen Guangfu patted his chest, "Big brother, don't worry, I'll take my brother with me!" I hid the letter in the insoles of my shoes, and the people I brought with me were dressed in the clothes of a farmer, and no one could find out! ”

Mao Chenglu nodded: "Let's go now!" ”

"Big brother, brothers, I'm leaving!" Chen Guangfu said, then took the letter from Mao Chenglu and left.

Chen Guangfu got Mao Chenglu's order and took a dozen people to drive the fast boat to leave Shuangdao and go north, while Hou San, Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun and others were boarding the boat and preparing to go to Shuangdao.

Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun were secretly surprised when they saw two large treasure ships.

This is by no means an ordinary fishing boat, this is a big sea ship, even ordinary pirate gangs will not have such a big sea boat, this is a sea ship that only a big pirate gang can have.

Zhang Pan even confirmed his previous conjecture in his heart, this Weijiazhuang is not an ordinary person!

Moreover, as far as Zhang Pan knows, none of the big families in western Liaoning have developed on the sea, including the Wu family, who is only engaged in some land business.

In addition to the two big treasure ships, the Weijiazhuang Coast Guard, which has more than 100 people, is also particularly eye-catching.

The army has not yet popularized military uniforms, but the coast guard in Weijiazhuang has all changed into standard military uniforms, mainly because Wei Bao wants to naturalize the hearts of a group of pirates as soon as possible and give them a sense of belonging, and the coast guard is mainly active on the sea, and does not have much contact with people on land, and is not worried about attracting people's attention.

The Coast Guard men each wore a blue-black military uniform, a long coat, and a long gown, instead of a long shirt of this era, which was a strange style for people of this era.

People like Hou San, as well as people led by Madman Tan, go out to do tasks, and they are just wearing the animal skin suits that Orion often wears.

"Brother Hou, is this your person?" Zhang Pan asked quietly.

Hou San saw the other party's doubts and said with a smile: "You must think they are dressed strangely, right?" Good fishermen, why do they all wear like this, and they all wear the same clothes, don't they? ”

"Yes, Brother Hou, what's going on? They were not like fishermen, but like an army. Lin Maochun also asked.

"What kind of army, it's our Weijiazhuang's owner Wei Gongzi who likes to tinker with clothes, which are all designed by our son, and our fishermen in Weijiazhuang basically wear them like this." Hou San explained with a smile.

Although Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun were skeptical, they didn't say anything, how to wear what they like, this is people's freedom, and the Daming Law does not stipulate clothing styles, besides, people's clothes are not made by them with money, do they care how people wear clothes?

Hong Sheng, who was waiting for Hou San, saw a group of people coming, including Hou San, and saw that Hou San and the Ming generals who came were talking and laughing, and knew that Jinzhou City had been relieved, so he was very happy and got off the boat to greet him.

"I would like to introduce the two adults, this is the steward of our Weijiazhuang fishermen, called Hong Sheng, our Weijiazhuang fishermen go to sea, and they all go to sea together with a group of people." Hou San introduced with a smile.

"Hello two adults!" Hong Sheng hurriedly saluted.

Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun saw that Hong Shengsheng's shoulders were big and his waist was round, his strength was powerful, and his face was murderous, where was there any fisherman's posture? At first glance, you can tell that it is a bandit-like figure on the sea. But it doesn't break.

Because Hou San helped Jinzhou City to relieve the siege, they still met politely.

Hou San briefly talked about the withdrawal of Amin's army outside Jinzhou City, and asked people to get on the boat first, and there were more than 100 unused wine bottle bombs left, which were also on board.

Hong Sheng nodded, seeing that Hou San did not shy away from Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun when he spoke, and did not pull Hou San to the side, he said to his face: "Do you want to go to Shuangdao now?" Then I'll leave a boat to the coast and wait for Steward Tan and Steward Chen, right? When they saw that the Jiannu army had withdrawn, they were about to return, so they could not find it. After letting them meet, they will also come to the twin islands. ”

"Okay." Hou San nodded, satisfied with Hong Sheng's arrangement.

The group then set off for the twin islands.

Hong Sheng's sea boat met Chen Guangfu's clipper on the sea road, and more than a dozen sailors paddled quickly, traveling faster than the treasure boat.

Having just left the twin islands, the sailors had good physical strength and speed, and the ships of this era either relied on sails or manpower, just these two powers.

Hong Sheng made people shout, but unfortunately it was too far away.

"This is supposed to be a ship coming out of the twin islands." Hong Sheng reminded Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun suspiciously, because he felt a little strange, the boat from Shuangdao was either going to Jinzhou City to contact Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun, but what were they doing north? Hong Sheng originally had good intentions, but he was afraid that the other party would go wrong and run many roads in vain.

Zhang Pan was also very strange, but said: "It should be something to find someone on several other islands, right?" Maybe not to go to Golden State City, we still have a few islands in this part of the Golden State Peninsula. ”

Lin Maochun said with a smile: "They must be going to other islands, where do they dare to go ashore?" Go ashore for fear of meeting Jiannu! ”

Chen Guangfu and the others on the fast boat naturally saw a big sea ship they didn't know, and vaguely heard the other party shouting that Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun were on the boat, and secretly wondered if Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun were not besieged in Jinzhou City by Jiannu? And Zhang Pan doesn't have a sailor in his hands, where did he get such a big sea boat?

However, Chen Guangfu did not dare to delay because he was carrying a 'very important' letter, so he directly asked people to speed up, and the two ships were separated by a distance of several hundred meters, and they staggered by.

"Master Zhang, you are both Mao Shuai's soldiers and horses, but the sailor seems to care about your life or death at all?" When Hou San heard Lin Maochun's words, he deliberately instigated and stirred up contradictions.

"Not really! They are called under the control of Lord Zhang, but they don't actually buy our accounts! Jiannu didn't come, and occasionally asked people to contact him, since the Jiannu army arrived near Jinzhou City, they couldn't even find a ghost. Lin Maochun said angrily.

"It can't be said that the sailor has the difficulty of the sailor, they have no more than a thousand people in total, and they don't have heavy firearms, and they go ashore, where is the opponent of the Jiannu Iron Cavalry? More than 1,000 sailors came ashore, and they might not even be able to defeat the iron cavalry of a dozen or so Jiannu squads. Zhang Pan spoke for the sailor very generously.

"That being said, you can let someone come and harass the assembly on the periphery, right? Otherwise, Brother Hou, how could they come? Our own people don't dare to come? Lin Maochun was unconvinced.

"Brother Hou, they have a bottle bomb." Zhang Pan said.

"Then our sailor at least has a bow and arrow, right? There are also horses! Let people ride horses and fire arrows on the periphery, and come to harass them from time to time, which can also distract Jiannu a lot! Still don't want to help! Not to mention the people of Liaodong, even our Mao Shuai's own people are also so intrigued and detached, it is strange that this battle can be won. If it weren't for the help of Brother Hou and the other brothers of Weijiazhuang this time, the two of us would have died in Jinzhou City! Lin Maochun said.

Zhang Pan was teased by Lin Maochun and couldn't say anything, and said gratefully to Hou San: "It's good, thanks to the Hou brothers and the brothers of Weijiazhuang, I will definitely let Mao Chenglu release your ships and people, and the grain will also be returned." ”

"Thank you, Lord Zhang, the things that helped me have passed, and adults don't need to mention it all the time, it seems to be out of sight." Hou San smiled and said politely.

The twin islands are not far away and will arrive quickly.

Mao Chenglu was drinking and having fun in the camp with the others, and more than a dozen North Korean women were singing and dancing.

Hearing that Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun were coming, Mao Chenglu was so frightened that he almost choked on wine, coughed a few times, and raised his hand to signal the singing and dancing to stop.

A group of dancing North Korean women wore light clothes, exposing their navels and arms, and had long skirts underneath, but the underwear was faintly visible, and it was just a strip of cloth that covered important places.

Seeing Zhang Pan's hideous face, he was frightened and stunned in place.

"My lord, what's the matter?"

The generals were playing happily, and when they saw Mao Chenglu signaling to stop, they asked one after another.

Mao Chenglu impatiently waved his hand to a group of North Korean women: "You go down first!" ”

The dancers saluted together: "Yes, General. Then he hurried down.

"It's Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun who brought people here!" Mao Chenglu said.

The crowd will be amazed! Although Mao Chenglu said that the matter of building slaves was very vague before, no one is a fool, and naturally they all understand, but a layer of window paper has not been pierced!

Thinking that if the matter is revealed and the Ming court knows, not only will they be unlucky, but even Mao Shuai may be implicated a little.

Mao Chenglu saw the frightened appearance of everyone, and fixed his mind, "You don't have to panic!" They don't necessarily know! Hurry up and send someone to check and see how far Chen Guangfu and they have gone? I will definitely not be able to catch up, I will take a look at the reality first, and see if Chen Guangfu has let Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun meet! ”

Seeing that Mao Chenglu was not panicked, everyone was determined, and felt that Mao Chenglu's words were very reasonable.

Su Yougong, another confidant of Mao Chenglu, said: "Big brother, it's okay to meet him, he knows what Chen Guangfu is going to do?" Chen Guangfu wouldn't be stupid enough to say it himself. ”

Mao Chenglu nodded and said, "Yes, everyone is like usual, just do what you want!" ”

And they all agreed.

"Invite them!" Mao Chenglu said to the leader of his own soldiers with a grin. Originally, according to his position, he should have gone to meet Zhang Pan, but he thought that he was Mao Wenlong's subordinate, and he was in the first place, with this relationship, in the Dongjiang Army, he was almost a prince-like existence, and he didn't have to bend down to Zhang Pan.

The leader of the pro-soldiers took the order.

Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun and others got off the boat, waited on the dock, and talked to Hou Sanle, Mao Chenglu heard him coming, and he must have personally greeted him, but after waiting for a long time, he waited for a personal soldier, and he could only enter the island angrily.

"You General Mao are so busy?" Zhang Pan said to Mao Chenglu's personal soldiers.

Mao Chenglu's personal soldiers saw that Mao Chenglu didn't take Zhang Pan in his eyes, so they didn't respect Zhang Pan very much, and said with a smile: "I'm drinking with the generals, so I can't spare time." ”

When Zhang Pan heard this, he snorted angrily.

Lin Maochun and a few attendants were also angry, damn it, Jinzhou City is in crisis, you have never sent anyone to save it, that's it, now that General Zhang and I have arrived in person, you don't even greet you, what is this? There's no one in the eyes, right?

And there was also Hou San present, which made Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun, as well as several partial generals and generals of Jinzhou City, feel so embarrassed.

When Zhang Pan and the others arrived outside the big tent and were about to enter the big tent, Mao Chenglu was very good at being a person, and suddenly stood up from the main seat, smiling: "Yo, is Brother Zhang here?" Why didn't anyone say anything to me? Faux pas, what are you still sitting for? Why don't you meet General Zhang together? General Lin? And the generals who are guarding Jinzhou City? ”

Not to mention Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun and others, who are Mao Chenglu's subordinates, seeing Mao Chenglu's hypocritical face, changing his face faster than turning a book, they are all a little sick to their stomachs.

However, everyone still had to get by on face, so they all stood up and stood behind Mao Chenglu to greet Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun and others.

"Quick, quick, clean up the cups and plates again, I want to have a good drink with General Zhang and General Lin who have worked hard." Mao Chenglu affectionately grabbed Zhang Pan's hand, and after giving instructions to his subordinates, he asked Zhang Pan with a smile: "General Zhang, Jiannu was repelled by you?" I was still planning with you just now, how to go ashore to relieve you from the siege! ”

Zhang Pan felt uncomfortable, no matter how generous a person was, seeing that the other party was so hypocritical, and he didn't shy away from it, he was also angry, and sneered: "General Lao Mao is worried!" We haven't had serious food for more than a month, where do we still have the strength to repel Jiannu, it was Jiannu who retreated by himself! ”

When Mao Chenglu heard this, the difference was incomparable, and Jiannu retired by himself? Impossible, right?

Mao Chenglu couldn't help but regret that he shouldn't have let people send some ghost letters to Nurhachi! Isn't that looking for something to do?

Never thought that the army of Jiannu would be so unbearable that they couldn't even take a small Jinzhou City?

"It's good to retreat, it's good to retreat, presumably Jiannu must be afraid of the prestige of General Zhang and General Lin, and he fought hard for many days, knowing that it would be in vain to fight again, so he withdrew the army, this is the blessing of Mao Shuai, the blessing of the Ming Dynasty, and the blessing of our peers here." Mao Chenglu happily congratulated: "Congratulations to General Zhang, General Lin and all the generals guarding Jinzhou City, you have made another great achievement this time." ”

A group of Shuangdao generals also congratulated a few guards from Jinzhou City on their lips like honey, all of them were enthusiastic, and their brothers were almost the same.
