With the opening of the city gate, for the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp who fought hard, it meant that they had escaped.

Thinking that they had just walked away from the ghost gate, the first thing everyone did when they entered Yulin City was to collapse to the ground, and then there was a burst of cheers, glad that they were still alive.

At this time, Shen Xi did not ride a horse with Yu Niang, he stood on the wooden board in front of the carriage, holding the top of the carriage with his hand, like a general standing on the chariot and leading his troops to triumph from the battlefield into the city.

The convoy resumed moving forward, and before passing the urn city, the city had sent a car to meet it.

Shen Xi jumped down from the carriage and saw a general surrounded by a crowd coming over, and asked on the spot: "I waited for the emperor to send cannons, why didn't I open the city gate?" ”

In a word, the officers and soldiers behind the general were tense, and some of them couldn't hold their breath and even pulled out their waist swords and looked at each other angrily. The general, who was in his forties, had a square face, blushed when he heard this, and was slightly ashamed, smiled awkwardly, and asked, "Your Excellency?" ”

Shen Xi was furious: "I am an envoy of the Qin order, who are you?" ”

"Bold." Someone next to him shouted, "Dare to be so rude to grandpa!" ”

Shen Xi was angry, and he didn't pay attention to proportionality when he spoke, but when he heard "Grandpa", he immediately thought that it was Zhu Hui, the prince of the country, who was guarding Yansui now.

This Zhu Hui is the prince of the raid, his grandfather and father have made great achievements, especially his father Zhu Yong, who has been awarded the seal of the general eight times before and after, has experienced a hundred battles, and is in charge of the twelve regiments and battalions and is in charge of the governor's office.

This Zhu Hui is a famous "wreck" in the "History of the Ming Dynasty".

In the fourteenth year of Hongzhi, Zhu Hui took over from Pingjiang Bo Chen Rui to meet the Tatar fire screen to invade Datong and Yansui's soldiers and horses, but the army slowed down all the way from the beginning of the departure, and when it reached Datong, the Tatars had already plundered away.

Zhu Hui was not in a hurry, continued to lead the army to Yansui Town, and after arriving at Yulinwei, he led his troops to attack the Hetao area, but at that time the Tatars had withdrawn their troops, and only 1,500 horses, camels, cattle and sheep were returned.

Later, the Tatar army entered Guyuan, and instead plundered Pingliang and Qingyang, and Guanzhong was shaken. The two towns did not dare to fight, and Zhu Hui was also timid and did not rush to go. When the army arrived, they killed only 12 men and recovered 4,000 of the plundered mouths. The battle was not won, and the army was undisciplined, disturbing the people and causing a lot of money, and the gains were very small.

The courtiers and imperial histories were impeached each other, and Emperor Hongzhi did not pursue them.

At that time, it was reported that there were more than 10,000 meritorious soldiers who smashed the nest, but Ma Wensheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Liu Jian, a university scholar, did not hold the book. And Emperor Hongzhi still gave Zhu Hui more than 200 people who had been rewarded before, and sent Zhongguan to welcome him with sheep wine.

The officials were impeached one after another, but Emperor Hongzhi did not listen, and still ordered Zhu Hui to be the governor of the regimental camp, lead 3,000 battalions, and the governor's mansion of the right army.

History changed with the appearance of Shen Xi, although Zhu Hui went to Yansui Town to lead the troops, but the specific person responsible for sending troops became Liu Daxia, obviously in terms of work ability, Liu Daxia trusted Emperor Hongzhi, Zhu Hui was ordered to stay in Yulinwei, and he didn't want to almost let Shen Xi lose his life.

Although Zhu Hui is a timid person who is afraid of things and likes to be greedy for merit, he has been by his father's side for a long time, knowing that Corporal Lixian did not put on the stand of the grandfather of the country, he waved his hand to his subordinates, and then hugged Shen Xi with his fist and apologized:

"The little hero has killed countless enemies outside the city, and he is an envoy of His Majesty's order, so it is also appropriate to lose a few words of temper after being wronged. I don't know who the little hero's surname is? ”

Song Shu and the others present didn't expect that the dignified duke would be so polite to Shen Xi.

It's no wonder that Zhu Hui is good-tempered, because Shen Xi was outside the city just now, and the number of Tatars who led his troops to exterminate with artillery has exceeded the number of Tartars killed by the three sides in the past years, and it is far more than several times.

That's why the Tatars retreated!

The ghost knows why today's Ming army is like crazy, in the past we rushed to the front of them were all tied up, but now it's good, they actually beat us to the ground, and if we don't leave, we will be wiped out!

Shen Xi saw that even the dignified Guogong was saying soft things to himself, and the anger in his heart suddenly disappeared, and he arched his hand and said, "I am Shen Xi, the right commander of the Zhan Mansion." ”

Zhu Hui thought for a while and asked, "Shen Xi?" This ......"

Someone next to him hurriedly stepped forward to tell Zhu Hui, and Zhu Hui said in surprise: "It turned out to be the champion of the prince, disrespectful and disrespectful, this side of the Xinjiang plan is in need of a talent like Shen Zhuangyuan......

Shen Xi couldn't help frowning when he heard this, this is the fucking Duke of the Ming Dynasty?

Sounds more like those incompetent people who sloppy and slap horses!

The men and horses of the Beijing camp entered the city, and this time they achieved the biggest victory of the Mengyuan army in Beiguan in recent years, but the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp suffered extremely serious losses, and finally counted, together with more than 400 people sent by the military department, only more than 200 people remained. But most of them died because of the rout halfway, and only a few dozen people who really followed up the mountain were killed and wounded, and now there are still deserters outside, and they don't know that this battle ended with the victory of the Ming side.

"Grandpa, please get in the car." The Yulin Ministry of Health will come over to pay tribute to Zhu Hui.

"Don't dare, don't dare, let's ask Shen Zhuangyuan to get in the car." Zhu Hui personally came over to help Shen Xi.

Shen Xi coughed, quickly returned the salute, and said respectfully: "Baoguo Gong is polite, I have my own carriage." ”

After speaking, Shen Xi turned around and climbed into his carriage, but the carriage didn't take a few steps, the wheel broke, and Shen Xi rolled off the carriage directly...... The previous battle had been fought in a state of haste and flight, and the carriage had been severely tested, and it was good that it had been able to hold out until this point.

Shen Xi got up from the ground, Zhu Hui personally stepped forward to help him up, this time Shen Xi finally didn't shirk anymore, and followed Zhu Hui into the wide and gorgeous carriage. At this time, Song Shu, who had followed Shen Xi to win a big victory, had already commanded the border army to do things arrogantly: "Have you seen the power of artillery?" Don't hurry up to the city! With it, Yulin City will be solid in the future. ”

Zhu Hui said to Shen Xi: "Shen Zhuangyuan, do you think it can be like this, the Tatars are now in the east and north, can you set up artillery on both sides of the city?" ”

Shen Xi thought to himself, sure enough, it is only with hard fists that he has the right to speak!

I just fought a victory with the Tatars, and even the dignified Baoguo Gong had to discuss with me, I was a petty official from the fifth grade, and it was good to see that he didn't salute him, so he could ask me everything?

"Just do what Bao Guogong said."

After Shen Xi finished speaking, he got into the carriage, and before he sat down, he suddenly remembered something, quickly opened the curtain, waved his hand, and motioned for Zhang Lao Wu to come over.

Zhu Hui asked in astonishment, "This strong man...... is so powerful, but Shen Zhuangyuan's general? ”

Shen Xi thought to himself, you and I are you, and there is a general?

This is just a servant I brought back from Quanzhou! The height of the Fujian and Cantonese races is generally not high, even if Zhang Laowu is relatively stout, but he is only less than 1.65 meters tall, where can he be called mighty? It's just killing people and having a murderous aura.

Shen Xi replied: "I am a civil minister, how can I come to the general, this is a deputy sent by the Ministry of War, who is responsible for teaching and firing artillery." ”

"There are strange people under the talents."

Zhu Hui's face was full of admiration, and he was extremely envious of Shen Xi having such a group of subordinates around him who could fight tough battles with the Tatars, and he still couldn't understand why so many generals in the Ming Dynasty couldn't complete it, and a Wenchen with two or three hundred Beijing battalions could complete it?

The car finally left the urn city and entered the Yulin City Gate, and Shen Xi sat in his position and looked weak.

Zhu Hui said: "Shen Zhuangyuan has worked hard in this battle, but presumably he is tired at this time, how about writing a war report to the imperial court by Benjue?" ”

Shen Xi leaned on the wall of the carriage, feeling that the carriage of this dignified grandfather was comfortable to sit in, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but look at Zhu Hui, who was eagerly eyed.

Only then did Shen Xi know that it was not him that Zhu Hui admired, but what he cared about was this military exploit.

People had to bow their heads under the eaves, Shen Xi couldn't argue with Zhu Hui for anything, and nodded: "I'm tired of protecting the country." ”

"No annoyance, no annoyance."

The carriage went all the way to the governor's yamen in the center of the city.

In Yulin Weinei, the biggest official office is the Yansui Governor Yamen, and now Zhu Hui is temporarily acting as the governor of Yansui, which is equivalent to the military and administrative supreme leader of Yansui, and both the military and the people must accept his temperance.

"My lord, the carriage has arrived, do you think it is agreeable?"

As soon as Shen Xi got off the carriage, someone from the governor's yamen found a new carriage for Shen Xi.

Zhu Hui saw Shen Xi nodding again and again, and said with a smile: "Just put it outside, I still have something to discuss with Lord Shen, don't come over and disturb." ”

After speaking, Zhu Hui made a gesture of invitation to Shen Xi, and while walking towards the governor's yamen, he told about the current situation facing Beiguan.

When he first entered the city, Shen Xi was full of anger when he escaped death, and he didn't care so much about the Baoguo Gong in front of him, but now that he thinks about it carefully, you Ming Gong will do everything to grab the merit, but it is really cheap.

“…… Now there is a lot of noise around Yansui, and the officers and men of the three armies dare not move! Speaking of which, Zhu Hui looked embarrassed.

Shen Xi asked, "Where is Liu Shangshu now?" ”

"This is where Benjue hesitated, Liu Shangshu has been leading the troops north for more than 20 days, and there has been no news before, until yesterday, I heard that the soldiers and horses of the Tatar Fire Sieve Department have made a detour to the flank of Liu Shangshu's headquarters." Zhu Hui said.

Shen Xi was slightly stunned and asked, "Then what's the difficulty of Baoguo Gong?" Just send reinforcements! ”

"Lord Shen, don't laugh, this Tatar ...... can go and return at any time, if Yulin City is lost, who can afford the responsibility? ”

Shen Xi finally saw Zhu Hui's personality clearly.

In fact, Zhu Hui's father Zhu Yong also has mixed reputations, for example, Liu Jian, a scholar of the dynasty, commented that his "merits are pretentious", and Wang Shizhen, Chen Renxi and others also wrote books pointing out that he killed good people and risked his merits, and his military exploits were very large. Now that Zhu Hui has taken over the title from his father, he has also inherited the temperament of exaggerating his military exploits, coupled with Zhu Hui's cowardly personality and forward-looking behavior, he cannot be expected to fight a bloody battle with the Tatars.

Shen Xi asked, "What if Liu Shangshu's troops and horses can't safely withdraw to Yulin?" ”

Zhu Hui hesitated: "This ...... This ......"

I don't want to send troops to rescue, and I don't want Liu Daxia to have an accident, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world!

If Liu Daxia is defeated, the largest mobile force on the entire three sides will be lost, and the Tatars will see that the Ming army is nothing more than this, then the natural morale will be greatly boosted, since you can't hold out one by one, then I will concentrate the superior forces and pull out the nails one by one, as long as the border barrier is exhausted, the day when the Tatars go deep into the hinterland of the Central Plains is not far away.

"Could it be that there is something difficult for the public to defend the country?" Shen Xi's tone of questioning at this time was a little more fierce.

Zhu Hui raised his face when he heard this, don't think that I have to be kind to you as soon as I have made a great achievement, I am the master of my land, you dare to speak to me like this as a petty official from the fifth grade, and he replied coldly at the moment: "Lord Shen has just arrived in Yansui, you might as well rest for two days, if there is any news, I will definitely notify you as soon as possible." ”

This is another skill that you must know as a member of the imperial court...... Prevarication!

Since it is risky for me to send reinforcements, and not sending them will lead to the erosion of the overall war situation, then I will not make a decision for now, and wait to see what the situation on Liu Daxia's side is.

Shen Xi felt sad for Liu Daxia at this time.

Now it has reached a life-and-death juncture, and everyone around knows that Liu Daxia is almost in a desperate situation now, but no one has sent troops to help.

Because the guards everywhere are thinking that it is Liu Daxia's responsibility if something happens, if I follow and send reinforcements, then I will have to carry the black pot with Liu Daxia.

Therefore, the border armies everywhere would rather sit back and watch the Tatars do whatever they want in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and did not take the initiative to attack at all, and even sent reinforcements.
