Although these words were reprimanding, they didn't know how pleasant they were when they heard them.

Many North Korean soldiers immediately nodded to Li Laiheng, hating that they couldn't speak the official language, otherwise, they must respond loudly. Li Laiheng's name, they can be regarded as remembering.

In North Korea, the upper class not only knows the official dialect of the Ming Dynasty, but also can read and write Chinese characters, which can be said to be one of the status symbols.

For ordinary Koreans, if they often deal with the Ming people, they will also speak, but rarely write. And those who don't often deal with the Ming people can just listen to the Ming officials.

In this era, in the surroundings of the Ming Dynasty, the official dialect of the Ming Dynasty can be said to be the lingua franca, even if you can't speak it, you will listen to it.

It's also a bit strange to say, in this matter just now, Li Laiheng can be said to be very arrogant, unreasonable, and very rude. It stands to reason that this is certainly unpopular.

However, at this moment, the surrounding North Korean soldiers, as well as the North Korean people in the queue, looked at Li Laiheng with awe in their eyes. In other words, they are not only afraid, but also admired. In this case, when they faced Jianyu, there was absolutely nothing, but for the Ming army and Li Laiheng, there was.

For most of the people in Pyongyang City, most of the people of Pyongyang know the origin of the North Korean fat man just now. However, in the eyes of the Ming army, it is not worth mentioning. was reprimanded by the Ming army, and even deprived of their convoy, but this North Korean fat man didn't even dare to let out a fart. The Ming army put down a word, and the North Korean fat man obediently went back to the end of the line to line up.

This made the Korean soldiers and those Korean people very envious of the Ming army, and many of them began to think, if they were not the old Koreans, but became the people of the Ming Dynasty and the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, then would they still be oppressed by these nobles?

What happened under the city was, so to speak, just a small episode of Pyongyang's retreat. For Li Laiheng, it's about the same. After doing it, I quickly forgot about it. However, for North Koreans, the impact is huge. For such a big matter, they naturally gossip in private, and the matter slowly spread.

On the Taedong River, the ships of the Ming army's naval divisions continued to transport the population in Pyongyang. With such a big movement, it is naturally impossible to hide from Jianyu Tanma. Soon, the news was reported to Yue Tuo's side.

"What?" When Yue Tuo heard this, he immediately became anxious, and hurriedly asked, "The Ming army ran away?" ”

He had just received an urgent order from Huang Taiji for 800 miles, and if the Ming army ran away, his head would also fall off. Unexpectedly, as soon as he received the will, Tanma sent such a message, and it was strange that he was not in a hurry!

"Lord Belle, the slave looked at the city, and the handsome banner of the governor of the Ming army was still there. It seems that most of the sailors transported away were wounded soldiers and North Koreans! Tanma hurriedly said further.

In this regard, Yue Tuo did not dare to hold it up. He didn't dare to retain his strength anymore, so he immediately passed down the military order, sent all the cavalry, expelled the Ming army at night, and wanted to regain the initiative in the field. Anyway, if you hold on for a while, the cavalry on the emperor's side will soon arrive. And the troops sent to the south are also about to have news.

Not only that, Yue Tuo even personally led the cavalry to the bank of the Datong River to check the situation of the Ming army's naval division.

Sure enough, as reported by Tanma, on the surface of the Datong River, from time to time I saw Ming army ships going down the river. There were quite a few heads on the deck of the ship. Looking from afar, you can probably see that they are all North Korean people, rich and poor.

"Lord Belle, please see, the waterline of that ship ......" Some Jianyu Tanma knew a thing or two, and immediately reminded Yue Tuodao, "It is estimated that there are quite a few in the cabin!" ”

Yue Tuo nodded when he heard this, and then turned his head to look at the city of Pyongyang in the distance, and the banner of "Lu" was still fluttering in the wind. At the head of the city, there are a lot of heads, and judging from the clothes, there are Ming soldiers and Korean soldiers. Judging from these signs, Lu Xiangsheng should still be in Pyongyang, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

However, this move of the Ming army still made Yue Tuo frown. It's easy to conclude that the Ming army is going to abandon the city of Pyongyang!

As if to confirm his words, as soon as he thought of this, a horse galloped over, quickly rolled the saddle and fell off the horse, and knelt down to him: "Lord Belle, the Ming army does not seem to have any intention of fighting with our army at night, and has fully contracted and retreated to the city. ”

Hearing this, Yue Tuo couldn't help but turn his head to look at Pyongyang City in the distance again, and his brows were wrinkled into a Sichuan character.

Then, he turned around and immediately ordered, at all costs, to get close to Pyongyang City to verify whether Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of the Ming Kingdom, was still in Pyongyang.

So, following his order, the Jianyu scouts and cavalry all immediately approached Pyongyang City, and even ran to the water gate, trying to interfere with the transportation of the Ming army's ships.

At the head of the city, Lu Xiangsheng heard the announcement and immediately understood Yue Tuo's intentions.

With such a small number of troops, they are all cavalry, and they are not besieging cities at all. The reason why he didn't care about the casualties of the cavalry and did such a useless thing must be to verify whether he was still there.

In this regard, Lu Xiangsheng did not disappoint Yue Tuo, did not immediately show himself in the city, and even showed his magic shot again, and ordered a few prisoners to the ground.

The big red scarlet robe, the ability to open a strong bow, and the accuracy of archery skills, these characteristics are combined, and it is definitely Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Baoding in the Ming Dynasty, who can't be pretended by others if they want to.

Yue Tuo saw it from a distance, and finally felt a little relieved, Lu Xiangsheng didn't leave! He didn't leave, which means that the Ming army definitely didn't leave, so he didn't have to lose his head.

After turning his head to look at the Ming ships flowing down the river, Yue Tuo suddenly laughed happily.

When his guards saw it, they were a little puzzled, and they were afraid that their master would lose the battle, so they were a little crazy, and hurriedly asked about the situation worriedly.

I saw Yue Tuo pointing to Pyongyang City with his hand and said happily: "Ben Beile is laughing at Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of the Ming Kingdom, who is a pedantic person. This Lu Xiangsheng is indeed a capable person, and I am afraid that he also understands that Pyongyang City cannot be defended, and he wants to run away! However, he didn't flee at the first time, but wanted to let the Korean people go first, such a pedantic thing, only Han people like them can do it! Now that Ben Baylor knows, no matter what the cost, they must not be able to go! ”

When his guards heard this, they all laughed and laughed along with their masters.

However, some of them have heard a lot about "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and they are also a little puzzled, when Uncle Liu Huang withdrew his army, he seemed to take the people with him, this should be regarded as a pedantic person, right? However, in the commentary, he didn't win the hearts of the people, and finally established the Shu Kingdom! This Lu Xiangsheng also did this, is it really pedantic?

Of course, he only dared to think about it in his heart, and did not dare to say it.

Yue Tuo naturally didn't know that some of his guards had different opinions from him, and at this time, he immediately issued a military order, asking the cavalry to go down the river, looking for the narrow place of the Datong River, no matter what method was used, to prevent the Ming ships from passing.

Not to mention, the Datong River is indeed not always very wide, and there are narrow places. However, Yue Tuo's cavalry was a little less, so he shot arrows on the shore, although he could shoot the ships, but the impact was limited. In the final analysis, their cavalry was too small to pose a threat to the river's boats.

Soon, though, good news came for Yue Tuo.

The divisions of Duoduo and Hauge quickly returned from southern Korea, and the cavalry of the headquarters rushed back to Pyongyang first.

Immediately afterwards, the cavalry sent by the main force of Huang Taiji's side also arrived in Pyongyang.

Suddenly, outside the city of Pyongyang, there were cavalry troops everywhere, and just by looking at it, you could see that there were at least 20,000 cavalry troops, and the number of Jianyu troops suddenly occupied an absolute advantage.

In addition to surrounding the city of Pyongyang, these cavalry troops also began to assemble in the narrow area of the Taedong River, shooting not only arrows, but even rockets, as if it were raining arrows. The ships of the Ming Army's naval division, it is not so easy to try to pass through the blockage of Jianyu. One or two ships might be okay with a hard rush, but on a large scale, it's harder.

At the head of Pyongyang, Lu Xiangsheng stood there watching the enemy's situation, and his expression became very serious. They didn't expect that outside the North Korean side's Jianguo returned to Pyongyang, Jianguo actually reinforced more troops from Liaodong. There are so many cavalry troops who arrived first, so if the infantry army arrives, I don't know how many more!

"This official is still a little contemptuous, I didn't expect Jianyu to attach so much importance to my Ming army!" Lu Xiangsheng looked outside the city and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Judging from the scale of this force, it is estimated that Jianyu will evacuate most of Liaodong's troops, and if it is calculated, there should be at least 70,000 or 80,000 troops, and on his own side, there are not even 10,000, even if the North Korean army is added, it will be less than 20,000.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but feel a little more admiration for the slave chief Taiji. You must know that in order to eliminate your own part of the Ming army, it is necessary to use so many troops, and it is also necessary to be courageous. After all, Jianyu was already poor in materials, and when he used a large army, the materials consumed were also very large. Moreover, as a slave chief, you also have to consider the situation in Liaodong, consider the Ning Jinming army and other things, and make the decision to attack the main force of Jianyu, which is definitely not something that can be done casually.

"My lord, this means that we have beaten Jianyu hard!" Li Dingguo, who was following on the side, listened to this, responded with a serious face, and then changed his words, and hurriedly persuaded Lu Xiangsheng, "My lord, now that the situation is clear, the main force of Jianyu is exhausted, and the city of Pyongyang is in danger, please take a boat to leave at night." ”

There are not many sailors left, and they need to wait until the sailors return. Most of the rest of the people in Pyongyang are soldiers, but they can't be withdrawn, but if they want to evacuate Lu Xiangsheng and others, they can still be evacuated.

However, Lu Xiangsheng refused, so he shook his head and said: "As the commander of the army, if this officer leaves first, the army's morale will be chaotic, and Pyongyang will definitely fall soon, how can it be done?" ”

"However, if the adults don't leave, our Ming army won't withdraw, and once the main force of Jianyu arrives, it will be difficult to leave!" Li Dingguo listened, but persuaded again, "If I am not careful, if my Dongjiang Army is wiped out in Pyongyang City, how will the emperor explain it?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng also had a serious face, but still shook his head and said: "This official really has to give an explanation to the emperor, so he can't withdraw first." If this officer leads the Dongjiang Army to go first, the North Korean side will definitely be cold. As the suzerainty of North Korea, we must not abandon North Korea. Otherwise, the official would not have had to lead the army to reinforce Pyongyang. Could it be that the officer would not have known about the possibility of the current situation before the reinforcements? ”

Obviously, Lu Xiangsheng is a civil official, and his perspective is different from that of Li Dingguo and others. In addition to fighting wars, he also took care of politics. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty rescued North Korea, not only because Korea was a vassal state. In order to eliminate the Jianguo, it is necessary to weaken the Jianguo first, and if North Korea can firmly stand on the side of the Ming Dynasty in the east of Liaodong, then the Dongjiang Army will be able to better play a role in restraining the Jianyu of Liaodong by relying on North Korea. For example, this time, Jianguo used his main force to attack North Korea, which was to contain Jianguo, so that Jianguo did not have the time and strength to detour to the Mongolian steppe to invade Guannai.

Lu Xiangsheng looked at Li Dingguo, his tone softened a little and said, "Actually, this battle is not so easy to fight. The city of Pyongyang was originally a fortified city in North Korea. Now, the officer has evacuated the wounded soldiers and most of the people, but they have not been allowed to take away the food, grass and supplies, which are very necessary to hold Pyongyang. If Jianguo wants to break through Pyongyang and eliminate our department, this official will definitely make Jianguo pay a heavy price! ”

Speaking of this, he turned back, looked at Jianyu outside the city, and said with emotion: "You are good at thinking in the army, and this officer has always admired you." I can tell you more about the current situation. ”

When Li Dingguo heard this, he knew that Lu Xiangsheng was like a mirror in his heart about the war in front of him, and he had already expected the possibility of the situation now, so he didn't need to persuade him at all. Moreover, he still has to teach himself now, so Li Dingguo immediately listened to it.

I heard Lu Xiangsheng say to him: "The best way to deal with Liaodong Jianyu is for the Dongjiang Army and the Guanning Army to attack Liaodong Jianyu together. Regardless of which side Liaodong Jianyu wanted to attack, the other side would send troops to respond. In this way, Liaodong Jianyu will be in a dilemma, and will be pressed and beaten by our Daming, and strategically occupy the initiative. It's not that the Guanning army just shrank in the fortified city, and only the Dongjiang army attacked! ”

Hearing this, Li Dingguo couldn't help but say: "But my lord, the Guanning Army has never taken the initiative to attack Liaodong, even if they know about this operation of our Dongjiang Army, they may not send troops to the hinterland of Liaodong to contain Jianyu, right?" Besides, when Jianyu fights, the last general still looks like there are still rules, and they will definitely guard against the Guan Ning army, right? ”

Hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng nodded slightly, and then turned his head to look in the direction of the Daming Jingshi.
