Chapter 78 I've seen shameless, I've never seen such a shameless one
After Zu Kuan withdrew his men and horses from the battlefield, of course he did not dare to meet the governor Lu Xiangsheng, and he did not even dare to leave the west. Because this crime of escaping from the battle is too great, even if Lu Xiangsheng doesn't kill him, Emperor Chongzhen can't spare him.
After he ran out of dozens of miles in one go, he was a little afraid of the consequences. He and his lieutenant Li Mingfu stopped to discuss countermeasures, and sent people to inquire about Lin Yi's battle.
Li Mingfu thought that Zu Kuan was completely superfluous, and there was no need to investigate, Lin Yi and the others must have been wiped out, and they were either beheaded by the Tartars or captured alive.
How beautiful they used this trick to kill people with a knife. If they were afraid that the Governor would condemn them, they could not leave Qianxi. It's a big deal to hide in the mountains and forests, and the grass is a coward.
At the suggestion of Li Mingfu, Zu Kuan traveled more than 100 miles and ransacked two villages. They want to eat, they want to women. When they withdrew from the battlefield, they brought nothing with them.
Because the people of the nearby villages had long since run out of ways to escape the war, they had to plan far away.
Fortunately, the 2,000 men under his command are all cavalry, and most of the infantry have died in battle, and those who are lucky enough not to die can't keep up with them.
Soon, the people sent by Zu Kuan to inquire about the battlefield returned. Lin Yi not only did not annihilate the whole army, but won a complete victory. Both the eastern and western camps were unharmed, and at a slight cost of a few hundred casualties, more than 30,000 Tartars of Azig and Amin were beaten to the ground, and corpses were scattered all over the ground.
"It can't be!" How high the blue tendons on Li Mingfu's forehead jumped.
There are strange things every year, and this year is especially numerous. Zu Kuan was also stunned when he heard it, as the general of the Ming army, the Ming army won the battle, and they were not happy at all.
After questioning the reporter in detail, they learned that they had miscalculated again.
"Ho, the kid surnamed Lin, every time he can get a blessing in disguise, can't he be cured?" Zu Kuanqi turned back and forth in a straight circle.
Li Mingfu also felt a little fever on his face, his dog-headed military advisor was really not very good, not only did he not cure Lin Yi to death, but the credit for this battle was all from others, and there was nothing wrong with the two of them.
The key is that now they have become lost dogs, homeless, neither advance nor retreat, people are not ghosts, even eating and drinking have become a problem, they have to rely on robbing homes and houses, the dignified deputy commander-in-chief, and the dignified deputy commander-in-chief general, where to go in the future? Is it just like that? You can be a thief, but you must not be a thief!
After Li Mingfu learned from the pain, he immediately had an idea again.
"Master don't worry, we'll go back to the camp now."
"Back to camp?" Zu Kuan's big face showed disdain, you asked me to abandon the camp and escape, and now you let me go back to the camp, are you playing me like a monkey?
6,000 centaurs, now only 1/3 remains. Four thousand men and horses died in vain, and their previous achievements were wasted, and not only did they have no military achievements in this battle, but they also bore the infamy of deserters. Not to mention the imperial court and Lu Xiangsheng, how will you explain when you see Zu Dashou in the future?
The revenge was not avenged, and the anger did not come out. Now all the credit for this battle goes to Lin Yi and Zu Keyong. Don't let me be anxious, a good battle is like this, can Lao Tzu not be in a hurry?
Zu Kuan thought about this, and couldn't wait to smoke Li Mingfu's ear scrapers.
"Yes, let's hurry back to the camp. It's not too late now, it must not be cheap Lin Yi and Zu Keyong, you two kids, don't forget, you are the chief soldier, he Lin Yi and Zhu Keyong are at best a guerrilla commander, you are the chief helmsman of this battle, they are your subordinates, we are swaggering back to the camp now, this credit is still yours of the general master. We have been away from the camp for less than two days, and it is too late to get back to the camp tonight. ”
Zu Kuan also made some sense when he heard it, his subordinates won the battle, and the credit must first go to the main general. But when it came to escaping, Zu Kuan really didn't have a bottom in his heart.
"What are we going to do when we get back to camp?"
When Li Mingfu heard that Zu Kuan was really simple-minded, his limbs were developed, and his mouth grew on your head, and you were the deputy commander-in-chief, it was not easy to deal with the two guerrilla commanders? It is to say that what is black is white, do they dare not listen?
"My lord, things are dead, people are alive, of course we can't admit that we escaped from the battle, it depends on what you say. Xing Ta Lin Yi made a big plan to empty the city and burn the grain and grass warehouse of the Tartars, wouldn't it be good for us to retreat as advance? To avoid its edge and strike at weakness, we are taking retreat as a strategy. ”
Li Mingfu shook his head and shook his head, this mouth can really fool, Zu Kuan's heart was much brighter when he said this, and his big face showed a smile again, and he couldn't stop nodding and praising repeatedly, "Clever plan, wonderful plan." ”
Zu Kuan immediately gave an order, and with 2,000 iron horsemen, he came to his original camp like a lightning speed......
Hearing that Zu Kuan went and returned, Xiaoying, Wang Jian, He Tao, Erhu and others all scoffed.
Wang Jiandao: "My lord, they must not have a good heart, but Zu Kuan is still the deputy commander-in-chief, Li Mingfu is still the deputy commander-in-chief, and the official position is much higher than ours, and there is no news from the governor's side, what should I do?"
"Easy to do!" Lin Yi sneered, and was about to clean them up, but he actually sent them to the door, just right, this time the new account and the old account are counted together!
The first time they met, Zu Kuan wanted to put Lin Yi to death, and he couldn't send someone to compete in martial arts, and then he couldn't do it himself, and then he put on a big banquet, almost making Lin Yi die in the fire. Of course, Lin Yi can't forget this, and now he has escaped from the battle, going and returning. Is it tolerable or unbearable!
Lin Ying immediately ordered someone to greet him, and he personally led people to the gate of the camp to show his solemnity.
Zu Kuan and Li Mingfu arrived at the gate of the camp, and when they saw that Lin Yi still took them so seriously, the two of them looked at each other and smiled at each other's understanding: Do you see it, this is power, and the officials crush people to death!
"See the general army, see the army." Lin Yi was polite and full of spring breeze.
"Hahaha, no courtesy, all of them are their own brothers, what is Brother Lin doing so politely, this time the general soldier is retreating to advance, avoiding its edge, beating its weakness, so that the Tartars can't figure out the size of the head, what to do outside the camp gate, just don't dare to come in, and then come in, and can't find anyone, over there Brother Lin put a fire again, the Tartars have to run away, hahahaha, this time a big victory, Brother Lin also made a miraculous achievement, this general soldier will go to the governor to report the victory, for Brother Lin to ask for credit. Come and come, please come in, please ......"
Zu Kuan and Li Mingfu, licking their chests and belly, talking with noses and eyes, laughing quite happily, still claiming to be the master and chief here, they didn't feel embarrassed at all.
"It's outrageous!" Xiao Ying, Wang Jian and others next to them were angry.
Lin Yi was also angry with them, and scolded in his heart: "I've seen shameless, but I've never seen such shameless." These two guys are really thick-skinned, and it is estimated that they will be more than enough to make a pair of leather shoes. Oh, this is to steal the fruits of victory with Lao Tzu. Okay, if you're ruthless, let's see. ”
Thinking of this, Lin Yi remained silent, and said with a little compliment: "My lord is strategic, and his clever plan is natural, admire and admire."
Li Mingfu's face turned into a chrysanthemum, "Lord Lin's empty city plan is really not good, Lord Lin guards the west camp, and the general soldier guards the east camp, which can be called a perfect combination, the Tartars have a long memory now, and they will never dare to invade again easily, and they will not worry about moving to the west from now on." ”
Of course, Lin Yi knew what he meant by this, on the surface he was praising himself, but in fact, he asked himself to hurry up and make room for them and return to his western camp.
Therefore, Lin Yi said: "The army is too famous, Lin's little trick is not enough to worry about, thanks to the strategy of the general soldier and the army, this battle can be won a big victory, since the general soldier and the army are here, the subordinates will take the headquarters and return to the west camp."
Lin Yi's words were speaking to Zu Kuan and Li Mingfu's hearts, just like eating betel nut Shunqi pills, Li Mingfu smiled even more happily.
"Hehehe, not busy, not busy."
Zu Kuan also came over and patted Lin Yi on the shoulder, putting on a very bold look: "Brother Lin, don't be in a hurry to leave, Brother Lin has a good amount of wine, and the battle has been won, we have to have a few drinks, the wine last time was indeed a little defeated, come on, prepare for the banquet!"
He turned to Li Mingfu and said, "Yuanzhi, you have worked hard, and I will go to Xiying for me to pick up Commander Zu Keyong, we will definitely have a good drink today, and we will not get drunk."
Li Mingfu agreed, turned around and was just about to leave, Lin Yi's eyes rolled, let Zu Keyong come better, just a number of helpers, this time Lao Tzu will put on a Hongmen banquet for you, come and not be rude!
Thinking of this, Lin Yi stopped him, "It's just a trivial matter, how dare you have to go to the army in person, Wang Bai has a hard trip, go to the west camp to invite my grandfather, you have to pay more attention to the affairs of the west camp, although the Tartars were defeated, they did not withdraw to prevent them from jumping off the wall in a hurry." ”
Li Mingfu smiled, "Lord Lin is thoughtful, then there will be Lord Laowang." ”
Wang Jian agreed, and Pegasus left.
Lin Yi accompanied Zu Kuan and Li Mingfu into the camp, and of course 2,000 Ning Yuan's army also entered the camp, Lin Yi gave an order, and more than 800 Tianxiong troops assembled on standby, under the pretext of course, was to make barracks for Zu Kuan's men.
The banquet was quickly set down, and at this time, Zu Keyong took Yang Fang, Zhao Sheng, Zhao Tingshou and several other relatives to the East Camp, and Zu Keyong, who was neatly draped all over his body, came with a big axe, but Lin Yi was already at the gate of the camp.
Someone came to lead the horse, Lin Yi took advantage of the fact that people were not paying attention and told him a few words, Zu Keyong suppressed the fire, but Lin Yi's plan was too risky, it was not easy to deal with Wu Zukuan, and his two thousand Ning Yuan army, our men and horses were only about 800 people, and we knew that we would bring 800 brothers from the Western Camp over.
Lin Yi reassured him with confidence, and it was inconvenient for Zu Keyong to say more, now Lin Yi is the main general, and he is the deputy general, but he knows that Lin Yi has a way, and everything depends on Lin Yi.
And just like that, the two of them were seated. It's similar to the banquet two days ago, it's still the big tent, it's still Zu Kuan who sits on the main seat, and Li Mingfu sits sideways to accompany him, and the two of them are guests, but after all, they are subordinates, and they do the drooping position.
"Come on, let's drink three glasses for this victory." Zu Kuan said, happily raising his wine glass.
"Slow!" Lin Yi interrupted him, and Zu Kuan and Li Mingfu were stunned.
