It has been more than half a month since Lu Xiang was promoted to Taiyuan, and at this time, the recruits have not yet come to report, but the camp has been flattened by his personal guards. On this day, he was leading a group of guards to divide the area, and a convoy of horse-drawn carts slowly drove towards the camp, and the carriages of the convoy were one after another, and they stretched for I don't know how many miles, and they couldn't see the end at a glance!

Lu Xiangsheng was not surprised by the arrival of the convoy, Fan Yongdou, the shopkeeper of the Shanxi branch of Rixinglong, informed him a few days ago that there would be goods sent over one after another in the near future, and asked him to be ready to receive them. Isn't he dividing the area with his personal guards, five thousand men and horses in one square, and a whole twenty squares.

Sure enough, it was a prosperous convoy, and I heard Fan Yongdou's hearty laughter from afar: "Hahahaha, Lord Governor, Fan has delivered the goods to you." ”

After going back and forth, Lu Xiangsheng and Fan Yongdou are also old acquaintances, and he still values this veteran military businessman, after all, they have been engaged in military supply for decades, and they are much more experienced than him, the governor of Xinzha. Hearing Fan Yongdou's laughter, he personally greeted him and said, "Shopkeeper Fan has worked hard all the way. ”

Fan Yongdou hurriedly replied: "Your Excellency the Governor praised it, Fan Mou ate this bowl of rice, what hard work can there be to deliver a product, but the Governor did not go to Taiyuan City to enjoy it, but he personally led people to level the camp here, which is admirable." ”

Lu Xiangsheng's old face was red when he was slapped by his horse, and he snorted, leading the topic away: "Don't talk about this, don't talk about this, how many goods have you sent this time?" ”

Fan Yongdou introduced like a few treasures: "10,000 people of cotton clothes, boots, quilts, military tents, grain and 30,000 catties of forage, a whole 2,000 carts, no way, there are so many carriages in the business, I can only send them to you in batches." ”

Lu Xiangsheng understood: "It's good to have 2,000 carriages, let's divide them into batches, anyway, it will take more than ten days for the recruits to arrive, and they will be able to send them all then." ”

The two of them were polite for a long time, and the convoy had gradually entered the camp, Fan Yongdou hurriedly asked, "I don't know where to unload this goods for you?" ”

Lu Xiangsheng pointed to the two pieces in front of him and his guards camping place, and said: "Just unload those two pieces, unload them in half, and pile them directly next to my guards' tent, so that it is convenient to guard." ”

When Fan Yongdou heard this, he arched his hand and said, "The villain will arrange it." ”

With that, he beat his horse and ran towards the convoy.

Before the material was unloaded, there was a sudden sound of dense horses' hooves in the distance, and more than 1,000 cavalry soldiers lined up in a neat four-way charging formation, led by a general wearing armor, rushed towards the camp.

The guards present were startled, and they all removed the flintlock pistols on their backs, pulled out the bayonets at their waists, and gathered behind Lu Xiangsheng to put bayonets on their guns. The faces of the Rixinglong convoy turned white with fright, and they looked at the cavalry approaching quickly in fear, not knowing what to do.

Lu Xiangsheng couldn't cry or laugh when he saw this, he naturally knew who was coming, but this situation was too scary, he quickly raised his hand and shouted: "You don't have to panic, it's your own people." ”

When everyone heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief, this formation is too similar to the Houjin Iron Cavalry, although they are wearing the uniforms of the Ming Army, who knows if they are the Ming Army, Huang Taiji is famous for his love of sneak attacks!

In fact, it is not the Houjin Iron Cavalry, but the Guanning Iron Cavalry, Zhu Cijiong can be said to be very caring for the five tiger generals under him, especially Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng, although the two of them are not famous generals, but they are all things in the Chongzhen Dynasty, and they are just emerging in the Chongzheng Dynasty.

Shanxi and Shaanxi are the nests of the peasant rebel army, and the two of them are a little uneasy to face the hundreds of thousands of peasant rebels alone, but don't break these two famous generals because of their carelessness, then there is really no place to cry. So, he sent a seal of 800 li to Liaodong urgently, and begged Sun Chengzong, the prince of Zhenguo, to transfer two fierce generals to assist them.

Sun Chengzong's subordinates can be described as fierce generals, Zhao Shujiao, Man Gui, Zu Dashou, and He Kegang don't need to say it, they are all fierce generals, Cao Wenzhao and Zu Dabi are also fierce people who tremble when they see the Houjin Tieqi, and he naturally has no opinion when the two come out.

It just so happens that the establishment under his command is full, and fierce generals like Cao Wenzhao and Zu Dabi can only be promoted to deputy generals, so let them go to the northwest to establish meritorious deeds, Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting are both governors, and the establishment of several general soldiers under him is still there.

Anyway, Zhu Cijiong also informed him that there would be no big war in Liaodong in the past two years, and it would mainly be based on defense, and it would be a waste to let these two stay in Liaodong.

So, he did not hesitate to recommend Cao Wenzhao and Zu Dabi to Zhu Cijiong, and faintly begged Zhu Cijiong to promote them.

How fierce are Cao Wenzhao and Zu Dabi?

According to historical records, Cao Wenzhao often led one or two thousand Guanning iron cavalry to pursue tens of thousands of peasant rebels, and won each time. In the end, it was because he was too fierce that he led 3,000 light cavalry to pursue Li Zicheng's 200,000 main force, but was besieged by tens of thousands of iron cavalry and committed suicide in defeat.

In later generations, there was a poem that said: There is a Cao in the army, and the thief escapes when he hears the wind. It can be seen that he is famous for his bravery.

Zu Dabi may not be as good as Cao Wenzhao in leading troops to fight, so he has no record of success, but compared to bravery, it is estimated that Cao Wenzhao is not as good as him. This cargo is nicknamed "Zu Er Stunned", Cao Wenzhao has to bring at least a thousand cavalry before he dares to rush into the enemy formation, and this goods alone dares to rush into tens of thousands of enemy troops!

A person rushing into tens of thousands of enemy troops can kill hundreds of people, so his record is not as good as Cao Wenzhao, but his bravery is not lost to Cao Wenzhao at all, there are historical records, the first warrior of the Manchu Qing Dynasty Ao Bai had fought with Zu Dabi, but Ao Bai was beaten by Zu Dabi and wanted to escape, but he couldn't escape.

Huang Taiji still has a lot of eyes, and shouted in the distance: "It's been a long time since this fight, and the two warriors are hungry, so it's better to go back to the camp and fight again when they're full." ”

Zu Er was stunned and found that he was really hungry, so he let go and let Ao Bai go back to the camp. As a result, when he was full, he came to call the battle, but Ao Bai never dared to fight again, and Zu Dabi's bravery can be seen from this.

Zhu Cijiong naturally heard of these two fierce men, and it was naturally good that Sun Chengzong could recommend them, so he directly promoted the two to the general army, and asked them to each lead a thousand Guan Ning iron cavalry to assist Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting. At the same time, according to Liaodong's past achievements, a group of generals were promoted in the Liaodong Army to assist together.

It was the fierce general Cao Wenzhao who came to assist Lu Xiangsheng, and he led a group of generals and a thousand Guanning iron horsemen to gallop to a mile outside the camp and raised his hand and shouted: "Slow down." ”

When Lu Xiangsheng was still a hundred meters away, he raised his hand again and shouted, "Stop." ”

More than 1,000 horsemen stopped neatly at a hundred meters in front of Lu Xiangsheng, Cao Wenzhao and other generals turned over and dismounted, came to Lu Xiangsheng, knelt on one knee and said loudly: "

The last general of the Tianxiong Army, Cao Wenzhao;

The last general, the deputy general of the Tianxiong Army, Zhang Hongye;

The last general, the Tianxiong Army, Wang Chengyin;

The last general, Tianxiong Army, Zhang Shujia;

the last general Tianxiong Army guerrilla, Li Mingfu;

The last general Tianxiong army guerrilla, Zuo Guangxian;

The last general Tianxiong Army guerrilla, Cui Zongyin;

The last general Tianxiong Army guerrilla, Li Guoqi;

See Lord Governor. ”

Looking at these mighty and majestic men like steel cast iron, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but cheer loudly: "Okay, with all of you joining the Tianxiong Army, it will be invincible and invincible." ”
