Chapter 66: Fleeing in a hurry
"What is this, you say, what the hell is going on?" Cai Wenyuan was furious, could it be that this dog thief was hard to change his mind and left a trick for himself.
"Strategist, my subordinates don't know what kind of artillery this is. His subordinates have been in the craftsman's prison for many years, not to mention that they have never heard of such a powerful artillery. Seeing that something was wrong, Zhou Sen said with a panicked face. If you can't say anything about this, I'm afraid that this little life will not be guaranteed.
Cai Wenyuan's eyes narrowed, how could he believe his words so easily, and immediately shouted: "Come on, drag this thief down and behead this seat!" ”
Seeking truth from facts, this is an escape rather than a move, and it is naturally impossible to take away the dozens of heavy big guys, so now Zhou Sen has become a dispensable small character, and there is no need to think too much about his disposal.
"Strategist, what your subordinates say is true, you have to be clear." Zhou Sen was shocked, he never expected that this Cai Wenyuan would be so ruthless, and he would cut off his head before the matter was investigated!
I originally thought that if I shouted these words, there would be people among the people present who would stand up and uphold justice for themselves, but as far as the eye could see, there was no one who looked at him squarely. In an instant, Zhou Sen understood, it turned out that in this rebel army, when he was useful, he was a guest, and once he had no use value, it was not bullshit.
regretted not being at the beginning, but it was useless, Zhou Sen, who was still quite strong, was grabbed by his arms from left to right, and he couldn't move.
Seeing that he was being dragged farther and farther away, Zhou Sen finally gave up, and it seems that today next year will really become his death day.
When the matter came to an end, according to Zhou Sen's temperament, he naturally couldn't just stop talking, and immediately opened his mouth and scolded angrily: "Cai Wenyuan, how can you be such a despicable villain as Shen Chongming's opponent, I, Zhou Sen, will take a step forward and wait for you below, don't let me wait too long, hahaha." ”
"Kill him!" Serangjun scolded angrily, not only did his voice change, but even a white handsome little face was distorted. Indeed, Zhou Sen's words deeply pierced his heart, why was he inferior to Shen Chongming everywhere?
Everyone's faces are also ugly, although this is the case, but someone said it so clearly, everyone's faces are still a little unbearable.
Cai Wenyuan glanced at Se Langjun meaningfully, and suddenly smiled: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, don't care about the words of such a humble villain." Although Shen Chongming has such a divine weapon, doesn't he dare to go out of the city for half a step, let's still command the men and horses to cross the river and go north according to the arrangement just now. ”
Everyone nodded yes, but Cai Wenyuan's words were just listening, and no one would take it seriously. After all, facts speak louder than words, if you don't suffer defeat at the hands of others, how can you cross the river and go north with nothing to do?
But this matter is also to think about it, everyone understands the current situation, if you don't leave, the army will not escape the tragic end of the annihilation.
Without further ado, he immediately returned to the various units and commanded his men and horses to bypass the city of Nanjing and rush towards the riverside ferry. This Cai Wenyuan finally played a role in his strategy, in just one day and one night, he was stunned to raise nearly 100 big ships, and there will be no twists and turns in this matter of crossing the river.
"My lord, the latest news, several ferries along the river are full of large and small boats, and the direction of the rebels is precisely these ferries." Yu Jiao pointed to the Nanjing city defense map and said.
Shen Chongming's expression darkened, and he asked, "Where is the Nanjing Sailor now?" ”
Yu Gao's face was also ugly for a while, and he said with some regret: "My lord, I didn't expect the rebels to move so quickly, but I'm afraid that the water division's men and horses are still wandering around Zhenjiang Mansion now, even if they start now, it will be dawn to rush back." ”
"Well, I didn't expect it." Shen Chongming shook his head, and suddenly smiled: "Providence is like this, after all, you and I are not roundworms in the stomach of the rebels, how can their minds be completely guessed." By the way, the people of Henan Dusi have made preparations? ”
Speaking of this, Yu Jiao looked even more depressed. "My lord, although your general order has been issued, the time is too short, and I am afraid that I will not be able to reach Luoyang until tomorrow morning. However, his subordinates have already notified several county governments along the river, ordering them to hold on to the city and always guard against the rebels' sneak attack. The only thing to worry about now is ...... The guards didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, and they didn't pay any attention to it. ”
"yes, how is that good?" Things were a little tricky, and Shen Chongming ran out of ideas for a while. If you are a human being and not a god, how can you control everything?
Yu Jiao also scratched his head, although things were expected, but they were far beyond expectations. "My lord, the military equipment in the north is far better than that in the south, isn't it self-defeating for the rebels to go to their own death, they can't think of taking the Beijing division directly if they can't defeat Nanjing City, right?"
"Hahaha, borrow their guts." Shen Chongming smiled, but then he was stunned. The rabbit is in a hurry to bite people, and the dog is in a hurry to jump off the wall.
Now I have answered to deter the border pass, and the elites from all over the country have quietly rushed to the border pass to prepare for war, although they are secretive, but they dare not guarantee that this news will not spread, could it be that the rebels have got some news?
Seeing Shen Chongming's face change, Yu Jiao's face was also tight, and he quickly shook his head and said: "My lord, it shouldn't be, the Jingwei elite is well-trained and well-equipped, and the rebels are going to pass through Baoding, Henan, and there must be a lot of fierce battles along the way. ”
Shen Chongming nodded, but he also felt that Yu Jiao's words were reasonable, but in the end he still shook his head: "Let's not talk about this, now the Tartars are deterring the border passes, once the rebels approach the capital, even if they are powerless, they will stir up chaos in the world." Therefore, regardless of whether their goal of crossing the river to the north this time is the capital or not, the powerful relationship between us and others as court officials must be considered. ”
As soon as Shen Chongming said this, Yu Jiao also nodded in agreement, the capital cannot afford to lose, even if it is a rumor.
"My lord, how do we deal with it?"
"There is no other way out, so I sent an order to the Henan Capital Division overnight to mobilize men and horses to arrange a defensive line from east to west, and if the rebels invade the boundary of Baoding Mansion, let them apologize for their crimes. In addition, it is also necessary to let the men and horses of Baoding Mansion be on standby, and the Gongwei Beijing Division has a heavy responsibility, and before the rebels break through the defense line of Henan soldiers and horses, no one will be ordered to transfer a soldier without authorization. Shen Chongming calmly ordered, what can be done for such a big matter is to deal with it in the most conservative way, and there can be no mistakes.
"The last general understands, and this will arrange for someone to convey this fate." Yu Jiao clenched his fists and said, but he had no objection to Shen Chongming's arrangement.
"No hurry, the most important thing now is to pursue the rebels. Now that they have crossed the river, there is no need for us to stay in Nanjing City. You immediately arrange for people to prepare the dry rations that the 50,000-strong army needs for ten days overnight, and mobilize civilian ships to wait by the riverside, and the army and horses will cross the river early tomorrow morning to pursue the rebels. Hmph, since you dare to cross the river, let them see the power of the cavalry! A sneer appeared on Shen Chongming's face.
Yu Jiao was so busy, Shen Chongming didn't dare to be idle, in the middle of the night, three watches, one after another military orders set off from Nanjing City to various places, but it was Shen Chongming who wanted to transfer the soldiers and horses from the south across the Yangtze River. Since things have become the way they are now, it is better to deal with the two things together, destroy the rebels first, and then clean up the robbery by fire!
After finishing this work, the sky was already dark, and the roaring artillery sound of the night had also fallen silent, and it seemed that the rebels had really gone clean.
To personally lead the army to pursue the rebels and go to the border pass to clean up my answer, how long will it take Shen Chongming has no bottom in his heart, and this time when he goes back, he naturally wants to say goodbye to his wife, especially our violent little sister.
There is not much to say about the warm scene of the scene, waiting for Shen Chongming to rub his ears and go out, Brother Erdan, who had stayed in the city and participated in the war all night, finally returned to the mansion happily and collided with Shen Chongming head-on.
"My lord, don't you know, last night the red-clothed cannon and the Franco's machine cannon fired in unison, and there was a sea of fire outside the city. Brother Erdan said with his teeth and claws, his face was full of smoke, as if he had been dug out of the coal pile.
Seeing that Shen Chongming didn't react, Brother Erdan saw that Shen Chongming was wearing a Yanyu mask cloak that he was willing to use every time he went on the expedition, and immediately asked in surprise: "My lord, where are you going?" ”
"This official is going to go on an expedition, you better go back and see your daughter-in-law, Xin'er has been worried about you all night." Shen Chongming didn't give Brother Erdan a good look, there were too many things last night, and he forgot to send someone to arrest this guy from the city.
"Ah, why didn't you say this earlier." Brother Erdan was shocked, and shouted as he raised his feet and ran inside: "My lord, you have to wait for me, and I will come to look for you after my subordinates say goodbye to the lady." Before the words fell, the man ran away without a trace.
Shen Chongming shook his head, got on his horse and hurried towards the city gate, it had been decided last night, and the army went straight to the ferry without swearing.
"In last night's battle, more than 4,000 rebels were killed and wounded. The rebels abandoned countless supplies, and according to the general's judgment, all they had with them now was some ordnance and dry rations. Yu Jiao stood behind Shen Chongming and said.
Shen Chongming nodded, but there was no happy look on his face, but he sighed and said: "These are no longer important, if Henan's defense is relaxed, more than 100,000 rebels can attack the city and loot the materials needed." Master Yu, time is pressing, and you and I have a heavy responsibility on our shoulders. ”
The meaning of Shen Chong's words could not be clearer, Lord Shen had always been worried that the rebels would become a bandit, and the current situation was exactly this.
Galloping overnight, Huang Wanli, who led the first 30,000 horses, actually advanced more than 100 miles. On the way, he avoided small cities and big towns, and rushed to the area of Duliang Mountain in one go.
"Eight miles to the north, Xuyi, although it is a county seat, but the mountains and rivers are not only dangerous, but also a rich land, so there must be a lot of grain in the city. According to the meaning of the military division, it is to let the general take this place first, firstly, to replenish some grain and grass, and secondly, the army can also have a place to temporarily rest and rest, even if the officers and soldiers surround it, we can resist it without too much effort. The generals around him said that this was sent by Cai Wenyuan to give advice to Huang Wanli.
However, Huang Wanli also knew in his heart that it was more to urge himself to act according to his plan.
