Chapter 1207: Senior Brother, It's Really You
The flag is in the city, the civil fort has not fallen until now, and the fortifications built by Shenxi have made great contributions, but now it has finally completed its historical mission. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The Ming cavalry infantry was exhausted, and the battle ended in only half an hour, and the more than 2,000 Tatar iron cavalry finally escaped very few, almost completely annihilated.
At the end of the war, Shen Xi tied the Daming Sun and Moon Flag to the flagpole, and came down from the city unhurriedly, he was ready to go out of the city to meet the triumphant soldiers, and the reinforcements were incorporated into the team as soon as possible, and then returned to Juyongguan.
There is no accurate number of cavalry outside the city for the time being, based on Shen Xi's previous observation in the city, there should be about 4,000, and the cavalry under Liu Daxia was almost all sent out this time.
"My lord, we are triumphant!"
Zhu Lie, the commander of the front-line command, was extremely excited, and when he appeared in front of the city gate with a few Tartar heads hanging from his waist, only a few guards followed behind him.
At this time, most of the officers and soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield in front, desperately searching the Tartar camp.
The reinforcements were all cavalry, and it seemed a little troublesome to enter the city, because there were too many ravines and ravines, and it was too troublesome to build temporary bridges, so you could only go through trenches.
But even if the Ming army itself, if the trench is not the defense area for which it is responsible, it is difficult to grasp the specific direction of the ravine, so it needs to guide the cavalry.
Zhu Lie saw Shen Xi from a distance, and before he could care about sighing a few more words, he felt that his body was being pulled violently, even if he was steady and did not fall, but he was involuntarily pushed aside.
"Which turtle son ......"
A curse word, stopped halfway through, because he turned around and saw the person who pushed him, burly and tall, with big shoulders and round waist, extremely powerful, walking with a tiger spirit, but seeing this person leading a tall horse, if no one came over, after pushing him away, he ran straight towards Shen Xi, and his thick voice sounded: "Senior brother!" ”
was deafening, and the surrounding Ming officers and soldiers couldn't help but cover their ears.
It's the king's tomb!
Wang Lingzhi didn't know what politeness was, he hadn't seen him for a few years, he recognized Shen Xi at a glance, but at this moment his own appearance had changed a little, he had a beard under his chin, his skin had turned wheat color because of the wind and sand in the northwest and the sun and rain, and his voice was even rougher than before, if it weren't for the fact that his title of "senior brother" hadn't changed, Shen Xi almost couldn't believe that this was Wang Lingzhi.
"Senior brother?"
Shen Xi was stunned, he didn't realize that the mighty Silver Armor General who had been on the battlefield before was actually his childhood friend.
"Hahaha, senior brother, it's really you!"
Wang Lingzhi ignored Shen Xi's small body that was sick, went up and hugged him, the laughter was full of joy, and the strength of his hand was amazing, Shen Xi was only hugged by him for a while, and he already felt breathless.
Seeing their commander hugging tightly with the silver-armored general who had been invincible on the battlefield before, the soldiers were puzzled, and the titles of "senior brother" and "junior brother" made them even more confused.
Zhang Yong and the others didn't dare to rush forward to disturb, but they guessed from the title that Shen Xi and the young cavalry generals who came to help should be brothers from the same sect, but the two of them were literate and martial, and the development direction was different.
"Hahaha...... Wow wow wow...... Woowoo woo ......"
Wang Lingzhi was majestic in front of people, but when he came to Shen Xi, he immediately exposed his true nature.
To the three sides of the army for four years, during which he has not returned to his hometown, although the official position has been continuously improved, but the loneliness and loneliness of a person outside is indescribable. When he saw Shen Xi, he was first surprised and excited, and then he couldn't hide the sadness in his heart, and actually hugged Shen Xi and cried.
This made the soldiers feel even more rare.
The general of the Ming army, who killed the Tatars on the battlefield, actually cried here, and the cry and shape were still very cold, and the tall image in his mind collapsed.
Shen Xi comforted: "General Wang, you have a lot of credit for winning this battle...... Please put your troops in order, and then go to the city command post to discuss the matter! ”
Wang Lingzhi can vent his emotions regardless of time and occasions, but Shen Xi can't, he must maintain his image as the commander of the Chinese army, so that he can better command and dispatch troops and horses, he can only remind Wang Lingzhi with more formal words, let Wang Lingzhi restrain himself.
Wang Lingzhi put his snot into tears, but fortunately, Yun Liu had the strength to see it, so he hurriedly handed over the handkerchief, so that Wang Lingzhi could wipe the dust and blood on his face at the same time, and also wiped away his tears by the way.
After more than an hour, the Ming army in front cleaned up the battlefield, almost demolished the Tartar camp, and escorted the booty and prisoners into the city in a steady stream.
Because the trenches were narrow, they could usually only accommodate two horsemen in parallel, and the team marched slowly. Shen Xi stood at the gate of the city and personally welcomed the soldiers into the city.
The officers and soldiers under Shen Xi's command, whether it was the original Beijing battalion soldiers or the reinforcements sent by Long Qingwei, respected Shen Xi like a god, while the cavalry under Liu Daxia seemed unruly.
The cavalry has always been the elite of the border army, Wang Lingzhi has been in the army for four years, and now he is the deputy general of the cavalry, under the command of four general banners, that is, four hundred men and horses, but when fighting, he acted as the vanguard officer of the whole army, because his boss found that this goods did not want to die on the battlefield, and every time he destroyed the city and uprooted the village, he made meritorious deeds, and Liu Daxia personally received Wang Lingzhi who rushed into battle and beheaded dozens of Tatars, and praised it.
Although Wang Lingzhi did not take the Wujin exam, he was a martial artist in the eleventh year of Hongzhi, and he belonged to the "professional background".
Wang Lingzhi completely relied on his own real ability step by step to get to the present, like him, a general who charges ahead in battle, usually enjoys last, and never fights for merit after winning battles, is most appreciated by his superiors, Wang Lingzhi has become the deputy thousand households of the cavalry army in just four years, and has become the person in charge of the army.
Wang Lingzhi's soldiers and horses don't seem to be many, but the Ming cavalry is originally very scarce, and he is not comparable to Hu Songyue, a Beijing battalion general, and has an outstanding position in the border army system.
When the soldiers and horses entered the city, Shen Xi came forward to greet him as the governor of Yansui, emphasizing that he was the commander of the three armies, and the reinforcements and horses must be included in his banner.
"Adult ......"
Just when Shen Xi was standing a little tired, suddenly a familiar voice came.
It was none other than Shen Xi's brother-in-law Lin Heng who came over this time.
Lin Heng is Lin Dai's brother, who has been in the army in the northwest for many years, before knowing Shen Xi, he was already a hundred households in Yansui Town, and later got Shen Xi's recommendation and was promoted to become the deputy general manager, and in the past four years, he was promoted to the general manager because of the accumulation of military achievements.
Lin Heng is a standard soldier, and his knowledge of the rules in the army is much stronger than that of Wang Lingzhi, so although Lin Heng was also very happy to see Shen Xi, he maintained great restraint, stepped forward to salute Shen Xi with a fist, and then pointed out his men to Shen Xi.
Shen Xi arched his hand: "General Lin, please!" ”
There were actually two acquaintances of his own in the reinforcements, and Shen Xi finally had the confidence to take this road of soldiers and horses for his own use. The defenders of Tumubao have obeyed him, and now with the help of Lin Heng and Wang Lingzhi, these 4,000 cavalry believe that they will not be able to get out of control.
Whether it is the reinforcements or the defenders of Tumubao, the officers and soldiers are excited after the victory, and their faces are full of joyful smiles when they enter the city, many of the cavalry know Shen Xi, many of them have personally participated in the battle of Yuxi, and they have fought with Shen Xi, and they all greeted Shen Xi politely at this reunion.
"Lord Shen, you are tired, go back to the command post and have a good rest, now the Tartar captives have been escorted into the city...... Even the coach was captured! ”
Zhang Yong listened to the report of the generals below, and Mei Zizi came over to convey it to Shen Xi.
"Got it."
Shen Xi waved his hand, "After counting the loot, report the detailed figures to me, as for the merit booklet, this official will prepare it in the next two days and report it to Father-in-law Zhang for approval!" ”
Zhang Yong said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry, we will withdraw our troops next, and it will not be too late to make a decision after returning to Juyong Pass!" ”
At this time, Lin Heng, Wang Lingzhi and a group of cavalry generals of the border army all arrived at Tumubao, and Shen Xi knew that he should immediately establish his dominant position in the integrated soldiers and horses, if he could not win the right to command the troops, then no matter how good the plan was, it would be in vain.
"Raise the account!" Shen Xi ordered.
Zhang Yong looked sleepy, and when he heard this, he said, "Lord Shen, don't be in such a hurry, right?" After all the soldiers enter the city to rest, can they raise their accounts? ”
Shen Xi turned a deaf ear and turned around and walked towards the command post.
Wang Lingzhi seemed to be like a fart, he had been following Shen Xi, and on the way to the meeting place after following Shen Xi, he thought he had entered a rotten vegetable field.
"Senior brother, why...... Is this different from other places? ”
In his eyes, only the place where horses can gallop freely is the stage for him to display his skills, and that is a good place.
Shen Xi explained: "If this is not the case, how can I hold out until your reinforcements arrive?" Then he instructed: "Senior brother, this is my territory, and all the rules can only be made by me." After entering the command post, don't talk nonsense, and change my address to Shen Futai or Lord Shen, understand? ”
