On the day when Lin Dan Khan evacuated Datong Mansion and led the army to attack Xi'an Fort, the Datong Mansion was full of joy.

They thought that Lin Dan Khan had been repelled by them, and even a civilian official proposed to report to the capital.

However, Geng Ruqi doesn't think so.

He received a carrier pigeon from Wang Zezhi, and he knew the reason for the withdrawal of the Tartars.

Therefore, he rejected the civil official's proposal on the spot and handed them Wang Zezhi's letter.

The crowd in the audience changed color, and the civil official who proposed to report the victory was even more pale, fortunately he did not report the victory, otherwise he would have deceived the king.

"What do you think?" Geng Ruqi asked, stroking his beard.

"My lord, if we lead the army to rescue, Datong Mansion will definitely not have enough troops.

If the Tartars come to attack and lose the city of Datongfu, what face will we have to face the people of the world, and what face will we face the emperor? A civil official stepped out of the crowd and bowed and said.

"My lord, it is already so difficult for us to hold on to the city, if we go out of the city to fight, I am afraid that the whole army will be wiped out." Zhang Honggong thought about it again and again, but stepped forward to dissuade him.

"Yanmen Pass guerrillas stationed in Xi'an Fort with thousands of troops, it is under the order of the governor, now the tiger squatting rabbit led tens of thousands of troops to besiege, if the governor does not go to help, what face is the face of the bloody killing of the enemy's soldiers.

If in the future, when thieves and slaves invade my Ming territory and kill my Ming people, who else is willing to be ordered to come to defend the territory and sacrifice their lives for the country?

The governor had an order to immediately send troops to aid Xi'an Fort. ”

Geng Ruqi's eyes showed perseverance, and he said sonorously.

"Wait." Wu Zimian, the chief soldier of Yansui, took a step forward, bowed and saluted, and then continued: "It is fifty miles away from here to Xi'an Fort, and it will take me three hours to arrive when I am ready.

The lord also said that the soldiers guarding the fort were only thousands, and the Tartars were hundreds of thousands, and by the time we arrived, Xi'an Fort might have fallen.

If the Tartars turn around and come to attack Datong Mansion, with our troops, wouldn't they be looking for death in the wilderness? ”

Geng Ruqi's face sank, he knew that what Wu Zimian said was the truth, this Wu Zimian belonged to the jurisdiction of the governor of Yansui, and he Geng Ruqi couldn't control it, so he couldn't force him to order troops to help.

Geng Ruqi hesitated for a while, he didn't know whether to rush to the aid of Xi'an Fort.

"My lord, with all due respect, we rely on Datong Mansion City to be attacked by the Tartars into Kuixing Tower, this Xi'an Fort, the fort has few soldiers, I'm afraid there is no one alive at this moment, please be cautious." Zhang Honggong stepped forward again to dissuade him.

"The Tartars have just retreated, and the north of Datong Mansion is in a mess, and it is a good time to repair, and the last general thinks that the top priority should be to repair the city wall and gate in the north of the city, in case the Tartars attack again." Wu Zimian, the chief soldier of Yansui, looked around, he found that everyone didn't want to go out of the city to help, he was a little more confident, raised his head and said loudly.

Geng Ruqi, the general soldier of Yansui, was very disliked, Wu Zimian was more greedy, and in the process of leading the army to aid Datong Mansion, he boldly embezzled a lot of military rations along the way, and quietly sold the military horses.

If some of the best soldiers in the army were willing to pay him a bribe, he would let them back.

The elite soldiers in his army have all run away, the war horses have also been sold, and there is no hope for combat effectiveness, and there is no decent record at all when he comes to Datong Mansion, but he asked Geng Ruqi for a lot of food.

However, Wu Zimian, the chief soldier of Yansui, did not belong to Geng Ruqi's jurisdiction, and he had no choice but to let him go, at this moment Wu Zimian, the chief soldier of Yansui, repeatedly opposed him to go out of the city to help, Geng Ruqi secretly swore in his heart that he must join him when the Datong Mansion is in trouble.

"Yanmen Pass guerrilla Wang Zezhi was ordered to come to the aid of Datong Mansion, but the Tartars blocked the road, he had to retreat to Xi'an Fort, and now he is leading his troops to defend Xi'an Fort, how can we abandon it?" Geng Ruqi said angrily with an unkind expression.

Wu Zimian, the chief soldier of Yansui, stepped forward again and said: "Xi'an Fort is fifty miles away from here, and I will wait for some soldiers and horses to rush away, and I will have to be attacked by Tartar rangers on the way, and this alone will probably cost a lot of soldiers." Hot e-books

The guerrillas at Yanmen Pass came to aid Datong, and if these soldiers died in battle, wouldn't they have come to aid Datong? Do they deserve to die?

For the sake of Xi'an Fort, which may have fallen and no one survived, do you want to bury our lives? ”

The corners of Geng Ruqi's eyes twitched, it was the first time he had seen him say that he was afraid of the enemy and cowardice so high-sounding.

He looked around, and he knew that these people couldn't move.

He clutched the letter for help sent by Wang Zezhi in his hand, and said weakly: "Repair the city defense, step up patrols, and go out of the city to find out the movements of the Tartars." ”

"Obey."

Everyone took the order and left, only Geng Ruqi sat on the chair weakly, because he knew that what Wu Zimian, the chief soldier of Yansui, was right.

Their artillery and bows and arrows at the north gate could not defeat the Tartars, and if they encountered them in the wilderness, they would only be defeated.

"Mr. Wu is righteous, and we admire it."

A group of generals who were ordered to come to the aid in Datong Mansion gathered together and toasted Wu Zimian, the general soldier of Yansui.

Wu Zimian smiled proudly, pretending to be modest: "I was reckless, and I poked the words out of my stomach without paying attention." ”

"At that time, I really sweated for you, you didn't look at Lord Geng's face, how ugly it was.

I didn't expect you to contradict Lord Geng so much, not only did he not blame you, but he also agreed to your strategy, which is extremely admirable. ”

Zhang Honggong saluted Wu Zimian with a glass of wine and said respectfully.

"Actually, there is a sentence that I haven't said, if I say it, he won't be angry to death." Wu Zimian said this and waved his hand proudly.

"Then you have to ask for advice, and ask Mr. Wu to speak." Zhang Honggong said curiously.

"Dare to ask Mr. Zhang, Geng Ruqi is just a governor of Shanxi, can he control Lao Tzu? Hahaha..."

"Oh, hahaha... What Mr. Wu said was. ”

"Oh, although Lord Geng is anxious, and he can't wait to exterminate the Tartars who invaded my Ming Dynasty day and night, but the Tartars have been rampant outside the fortress for more than two hundred years, aren't they still alive and well? Where is it that we can exterminate with the help of a small Xi'an Fort. ”

"What Mr. Wu said is extremely true."

"Besides, the sum of our people is less than half of the Tartars, we just want to go to the rescue and have to think about the consequences of losing Datong, if Datong is lost, will we still have our lives when the emperor blames us?"

Wu Zimian looked at the various generals present, drank a glass of wine and sat down.

"What General Wu said is that the Tartars have retreated to the outside of the Saiwai since the beginning of the dynasty, and now after a few dynasties and generations, they still have not perished, and it is not something that we warriors can kill as soon as we rush up."

If he doesn't go to the aid of Xi'an Fort, the soldiers will also think, if it is himself who is trapped, will Lord Geng not care about your lives, and if this goes on for a long time, he will not be able to move you in the future.

Therefore, someone must accompany Lord Geng to perform a play, and someone must set up a stage to act.

As for me, I gave Master Geng a platform, and Lord Geng agreed to my strategy by borrowing the donkey from the slope. ”

The generals looked suddenly enlightened and praised one after another.
