Chapter 124: Song Xiance's careful thinking
Shen Xing's greeting was also sincere. "A certain general Li Yan greeted Hou Ye Shen, and hoped that Hou Ye would reach out to save millions of Li people in Henan." After Li Yan witnessed the scene of the people of Henan who were hungry and cannibalistic, he had long put his personal grievances behind him, and knelt down sincerely after seeing Shen Xing.
Because he really couldn't think of anyone else who could save him except Shen Xing at this time, and he had the strength to save millions of people. He was accustomed to seeing life and death on the battlefield, and it stands to reason that his heart has long been as hard as steel, but whenever he sees a child of four or five years old lying on the white bones of his relatives and crying bitterly, and an old man of sixty or seventy years old gnawing on the dirt without covering his body.
He would still wake up in the middle of the night, weeping bitterly, lamenting the hardships of the world and sympathizing with the sufferings of his father.
Looking at the mentally depressed and skinny Li Yan, it is not difficult for Shen Xing to imagine how a scholar who cares about his family and country survives such a hell on earth in Henan during this time. He took a few steps forward and untied his cloak and put it on Li Yan's body, and then helped him up with his own hands.
"Brother Li is difficult for you, Ben Hou is really late, and it has also suffered the people of Henan, but since Ben Hou is here, he will not sit idly by, five million stones from Annan Hainan to raise grain and grass has arrived in Shanghai by sea, and it will arrive in Shangqiu one after another in a few days, I still have more than 100,000 burdens with the army, you can take it away first!"
Li Yan looked at Zhen Minghou, who was only seventeen or eighteen years old in front of him, he was full of emotion in his heart, and it was difficult to say a word when the words came to his mouth, and the seven-foot-tall man trembled all over his body for a while, and his eyes were blurred with tears. "Brother Li, you don't have to blame yourself, who can stop natural disasters and epidemics, as long as we wait for the dead sheep to make amends, the people of Henan will be able to resume production and live and work in peace and contentment!"
After a while, Li Yan drank a few glasses of hot wine before returning to normal, and smiled at Shen Xing with an embarrassed smile: "Let Master Hou, you have a smile, it is difficult to control your feelings for a while!" Master Hou, you won't come this time simply to help the victims, right? Although a certain general is a scholar, but for many years, he has a straightforward temperament and does not like to bend around you, if you have any plans, just say it! ”
Shen Xing lit a cigarette and handed it to Li Yan, Li Yan smoked it with great interest, "This cigarette is very popular in my Dashun army, Shen Hou Ye is really a ghost in business, so he can turn decay into magic with a roll of paper!" As the two were talking, two more horses came in the distance, and Li Yan quickly stood up.
"Master Hou, the person who came is the junior brother and military advisor of the last general." Hearing Li Yan say this, Shen Xing also stood up, and took the initiative to hand over the cigarette without putting on a score, Li Nian, who was about the same age as him, was a little panicked, and Song Xiance took the cigarette very calmly, and let Shen Xing light the fire with peace of mind.
"Master Hou, if you can't make the last general, you should come by yourself!" Li Nian bowed and hurriedly turned to the side and lit it himself. "What's the matter, Zhenming waits for a cigarette, but he will get a place in Henan Province for nothing, and he has made a lot of money in this business!" Song Xiaozi's words were amazing, and even Li Yan was nervous at this time, for fear that Shen Xing would be unhappy and turn his face and not recognize people, but he didn't expect Shen Xing to laugh, stretched out his hands and clamped Song Xiance under his armpits.
"Mr. Song, is he not a tall person, but he has great ambitions? Do you want to use such words to provoke Ben Hou, or to test Ben Hou, and then use a preach, to arouse Ben Hou's interest, you literati who are a little talented are not good at this, and you will play tricks at every turn...... What do you want to learn Zhuge Kongming? If you really have the ability, you will naturally reuse it! ”
"You! Shen Zhenming is a loss that you are still a hero in the world, and there is no one in your eyes, even if someone Song has the heart to work, but when he looks at it today, it is okay to stop it! Song Xiance struggled and scolded loudly while pointing at Shen Xing.
Li Yan and Li Nian looked at Song Xiance being messed up by Shen Xingqi's beard, and they also felt strange that this Song dwarf had always been cynical, when did he care about what others thought of him, was he so angry at this moment, could his mind really be in Shen Zhen's words.
"Haha...... Annoyed and angry, the jar was broken, was it said that Ben Hou was careful and felt embarrassed! In fact, it is not a big deal if you want to wait for the price and sell! At least you still have a pretty accurate eye for people, otherwise you wouldn't have contacted my Shen Butler privately. But I'm a little worried about what you're doing! What if you do the same in the future? ”
"You...... I'm angry, Song someone has been studying hard for ten years, but I just want to find a master to serve the country and show my strengths for the people of the world, but I didn't expect you Shen Zhenming to think of Song as that capricious villain, as the saying goes, different ways do not conspire with each other, and Song Someone left, but there is a word to tell you when you leave, please treat General Li well, his talent is not under Song! Leave! ”
Shen Xing sat there motionless and smoked, and commented with interest on the dress of the four girls of Meilan Zhuju, and the four little beauties trembled and laughed non-stop.
Li Yan saw that Song Xiance was leaving, where could he still sit, three steps and two steps and a trot stopped in front of Song Xiance, and Li Nian immediately rushed over.
"Brother Song, since you can see that Zhenming is waiting for the dragon to soar thousands of miles, why do you want to be rash for a while, he is only eighteen years old, and Li is also joking when he sees him, you don't know that he is testing you? Don't others know your ambitions? If you miss such a good master, you will regret it for the rest of your life! ”
"Uncle Song, what my eldest brother said is right, Xiao Nian doesn't understand anything else, but looking at the soldiers led by Marquis Shen, it is extraordinary, I don't know if you have noticed that since we came here just now, those guards have not moved even their eyes seem to have blinked! You can't go! Think about it, no matter where you go, you don't end up being defeated by such soldiers! ”
Li Nian didn't say that he didn't know, he was startled when he said it, just now Song Xiance and Li Yan's attention really wasn't on the guards around them, and now after his reminder, the two of them couldn't help but secretly admire after a few glances around, where is this person, it's just a sculpture, and the rows of patrolling teams in the distance even walk in order. Is this Shen Xing really the reincarnation of Sun Wusheng?
Song Xiance is in a dilemma, in fact, as Li Yan said, once he leaves, I am afraid that he can only return to the mountains and forests in this life, but he is an official and a half-official who bows to Shen Xing, what does this mean, the imprint of the capricious villain has been left, do you really have to wait until Shen Xing's son takes the throne to come out of the blue? But at Shen Xing's age, when he died, he was still alive.
"Okay, I'm kidding you? I just want to get rid of the problem of making a small report behind your back, especially the youth of my wife, Mr. Song's talent is still recognized, as long as you do your best in the future, you can't lose your benefits, presumably you have also done a detailed investigation of Shen's character, otherwise you wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous just now! ”
"Song Shorty, it turns out that you told Zhen Minghou about me and Yingying, and I was thinking about you just now! You're so disappointing! Watching Li Yan leave in a huff, Song Xiance's face was purple for a while, this Shen Xing is too unconventional, he even betrayed his good brother's affair with his good intentions, he said it all when his upper and lower lips touched, isn't this the rhythm of forcing people to die?
"Master Hou, my good Lord Hou Song has been taught, and you will be sent before and after the saddle in the future, and I hope that your Lord will do a lot of work in General Li's affairs!" "Brother Li, you wait, listen to Song's explanation! Things are not what you think, and Hou Ye has known about them for a long time...... Song is just ...... Wait! ”
Shen Xing looked at the backs of the two chasing and happily fell to the ground and rolled around, looking at Li Nian on the side dumbfounded.
Shanhaiguan, a fortress that had been heavily defended after hundreds of years of war, once again stood on the cusp of history when Li Zicheng's 500,000 troops and horses swept in by the wind and sand.
Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin, Li Mou, Niu Jinxing and others thought that they were strong and strong, and they were carrying the power of victory, facing the tattered Shanhaiguan and the 60,000 Guanning Iron Cavalry that was surrounded by water, their previous little worry disappeared in an instant, but what they didn't know was that the 500,000 Dashun army was either scraping together to pull the strong Ding, or they had just come out of Sister Yao's bed, on the noisy wine table...... Those who hurriedly put on armor and went into battle.
The rebel army who shouted to meet the king and follow the king before, and the rebel army who did not pay for food had long been lost in the prosperous capital, and now they were thinking about the beautiful wife and concubine at home, and the high-bed nephrite...... The momentum is very large, and the big one completely ignores that the 60,000 people in Wu Sangui's hands are the experienced and disciplined Guanning Iron Cavalry. The big one can't even be seen by the 200,000 tiger and wolf army of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
"Uncle, Dolgon refuses to see our messenger, he makes it clear that he wants to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, so that he can profit from it! Aren't we? The thief sent someone to surrender last night! Yang Kun said in a low voice, and then looked at Wu Sangui, who hadn't closed his eyes for three days.
Wu Sangui did not answer Yang Kun's words, but held his waist knife and looked around at Hu Shouliang, Fang Xianting, Guo Yunlong and several others. "At present, you also know that the thief Liu Zongmin killed my Wu family, and the eldest husband stood between heaven and earth.
When several people heard this, they knelt on the ground without the slightest hesitation, and including Yang Kun, shouted in unison, "We are willing to advance and retreat with the marshal, and obey the marshal's orders!" As soon as the words of several people were finished, a shocking horn sounded outside Shanhaiguan.
The corners of Wu Sangui's eyes twitched slightly. "It seems that the thieves are about to attack the city, so go and arrange the guards yourself! Tell the soldiers that in this season of life and death, don't fall into the majesty of Guanning Iron Cavalry! A few people ordered to leave, leaving Wu Sangui alone, looking at the Manchu camp with flags flashing in the distance behind him, and hitting the city wall with his fists over and over again. Dolgon, you evil mind! Do you want to exhaust my Guanning Iron Horse and force someone to beg for surrender? ”
The battle changed color together, the Dashun army was like ants like crazy ladders and bridges from all directions to the Shanhaiguan city wall, Li Zicheng used all the dozens of cannons captured from the capital, but he could watch the old Shanhaiguan was blown up by the rocks, and the fire was shining, but he was the city gate closed and did not move.
