248. All the way to the war

Nangong Jin followed the junior colonel out of the conference hall, and several junior colonels didn't know if they had heard of the Nangong clan, and they were quite polite to Nangong Jin, and they were not tied up or detained. It's just that the backyard is where the people in the house live, even if the firewood room is in the corner, there is no outsider escorted into the backyard firewood room to be punished.

Nangong Jin didn't care, and the little schools didn't know. As soon as a few people left the council hall and turned a corner, they were stunned when they saw a familiar figure in front of them.

Yao Fangyu didn't expect to meet Nangong Jin here, so she was stunned, stood still, and nodded at him.

The little colonel behind Nangong Jin saw him standing in a daze, and gently pushed him. Nangong Jin took a few steps forward, and suddenly turned back to Yao Fangyu and said, "It's going to be a war, leave here and go back to the Central Plains immediately!" ”

didn't wait for Yao Fangyu to respond, the little colonel behind him heard him say this, and this time he didn't push it so politely, "Hurry up, what nonsense!" ”

The discussion in the council hall continued, but as soon as Nangong Jin made such a fuss, Tianchengwei entered a pre-war state, which made some officers have a lot of opinions, after all, the Tartars may only hit Datong Mansion and return? It may also be another time to skip Tianchengwei and go straight to Gyeonggi. Therefore, Liang Lie's approach is really a fuss.

For Liang Lie, if Tianchengwei starts a war this time, it will be his first battle after taking office, but the general opinion of the generals under his seat is to close the city and not come out, or send things without fighting. He had been in naval battles for a long time, and he really had little experience in defending the city with the Tatar cavalry. The opinion of the generals in this first battle is particularly important, but it is always right to stick to it no matter what. Therefore, it was ordered to strengthen the patrol force, depending on the situation of the enemy. Everyone in the audience hurriedly dispersed, and they all went away according to their respective duties.

Yao Fangyu had been waiting outside. Liang Lie came out to see her, and without waiting for her to speak, he ordered: "Tianchengwei may have a war, Uncle Liang will not leave you, leave immediately." ”

Yao Fangyu was stunned, slightly flustered, and said hurriedly: "I, I can stay and help ......." ”

Liang Lie waved his hand, "Fighting a war is not something you can imagine. And if Tianchengwei really fights, Uncle Liang is also the first time to cooperate with these soldiers, and everyone doesn't know their temperament. Also, if you don't want to follow your master, Uncle Liang supports you. After you leave, help Uncle Liang go to Shuzhong's hometown to have a look. After I left home, I never went back, and my sons rarely got together. Take my letter and you go now. ”

Yao Fangyu looked at Liang Lie and burst into tears. This is because she is afraid that she will have nowhere to go, so she will have a place to stay, although she accepted Liang Lie's letter, she never nodded.

Liang Lie sighed, patted her on the shoulder, and said apologetically: "You are a good boy, it is Uncle Liang who is sorry for you." ”

Yao Fangyu wiped her tears and whispered, "I just seemed to see ...... Nangong Jin. ”

Liang Lie nodded, "Let's talk about your business." When the war is over, Uncle Liang will make decisions for you. You go now. ”

"Okay." Yao Fangyu looked at Liang Lie and said with some reluctance, "Master asked me to say goodbye......." ”

Liang Lie nodded, with a smile of unknown meaning on his face, "Let's go, Uncle Liang won't send it." When the war is over, you want to come again. ”

**********

Although Tianchengwei has not fought for a long time, it is a military town after all, and the most prosperous place on the front line of Xuanda is still based on the military establishment. At this time, the shops and private villas had already closed, and the caravans that were originally waiting to leave the customs also put away the goods and waited for the ban to be lifted in the inn, but they seemed to be used to it, and they didn't have much nervousness.

And the streets, which are usually lively, are no longer empty, only soldiers who hurriedly run through the streets. The gates were closed, and there were twice as many troops on the walls as usual.

Yao Fangyu came to the inn where Xu Bao was staying. Xu Baoshen had already packed up and waited anxiously for her, "Why did you come?" How long does it take? Xu Baoshen's tone was not good.

Yao Fangyu said embarrassedly: "Let the master wait for a long time." Uncle Liang was in a meeting, and I waited for him to be empty before ....... ”

"It's going to be a war, and you're still waiting for him to be empty?" Xu Baoshen said angrily: "The city gate is closed, I have been waiting for you." Did he give you the paperwork? ”

Yao Fangyu nodded.

"Alright, let's go." Xu Baoshen saw that there was only the army on the street, so he was really anxious, so he picked up his luggage and stepped out of the door, but Yao Fangyu suddenly grabbed Xu Baoshen.

"Master, let's stay."

Xu Baoshen shook her off in an instant, and said unhappily: "Hurry up, don't make trouble." ”

Yao Fangyu looked at him and pleaded, "We are also helping everyone in the South China Sea. Last time, when the Japanese invaded Nanhai City, Master rescued the villagers by the sea and took refuge in the Nanhai Sect. Now that the Tartars are here, I don't want to leave as soon as I leave, just as the people who help Uncle Liang and Tianchengwei. ”

Xu Bao took a deep breath, as if thinking of his usual image, so he said with a pleasant face: "This is not the same thing as us taking in refugees in the South China Sea. No matter how many people there are in a boat, there are only a few hundred, even if there are ten boats, there are only a few thousand, and there are sailors in the imperial court, and what we do is to assist. But the Tartars were regular armies, and each time they invaded tens of thousands of people, it was small. Ono, this is a war, and it is not the same thing as fighting the Japanese invaders. ”

Seeing that Yao Fangwei was still reluctant to leave, he could only continue: "Listen to Master, we will not help the people of Uncle Liang and Tianchengwei if we stay, they are all well-trained. There are only two of us, and staying will only add to the chaos. Walking, is to help them. ”

Yao Fangyu was still hesitating, and whispered: "Just now, I heard those officers say that Tianchengwei has not fought in the past few years, and the Tartars don't like it here, sometimes they only hit Datong Mansion, and sometimes they just go directly to the Beijing Division." Uncle Liang wants us to leave now because he is afraid that it may be dangerous for us to stay......"

Xu Baoshen had a flash of inspiration, if Tianchengwei had never been the target of the Tartars, now he would end up with a bad reputation for escaping, and it would be an opportunity to fight. That's right, go to the General Military Mansion, wait for the war to end and let Liang Lie write a stroke, get a war exploit and return to the South China Sea, what face do the Ying and Zhang families have to force the palace? At that time, as long as you don't hand over the position of head of the house, the 30,000 taels of silver will be hung up until death. Besides, with Xiao Ye by his side, he was not afraid of Liang Lie's small movements at all, no matter how he said it, it was impossible for that soldier to hack her to death like hacking her father with a big sword.

Xu Baoshen turned around, changed his expression, and nodded deeply, "Yes, no matter how we say it, we have more skills than those people, and it is also the responsibility of each of our Ming people to protect the family and defend the country." Taking Yao Fangyu's hand, "Let's stay, go to the General Soldier's Mansion, and obey General Liang's dispatch." ”

**********

It was already a few days ago that Yang Hewei was defeated. Zhao Yingfeng took more than a dozen carts, rode horses with dozens of fellow disciples, and walked at a high speed on the road to Gao Shanwei.

When leaving the Tumo River, Altan Khan actually gave 50,000 cavalry. Although the 50,000 cavalry were gathered from at least ten tribes, this was not Zhao Yingfeng's original intention at all. I thought that Altan Khan would not give many people in order to see the effect of the medicine man, so maybe he only needed to go to Yang and Wei, and he could go home after demonstrating the formation.

Now, it's 50,000 cavalry! What else is needed for this? After all, Altan Khan did not believe in the so-called 'army of immortals'. This is like the position of the White Lotus Sect in Tumochuan, which seems to be strong, but in fact it is embarrassing.

Zhao Yingfeng didn't want to be a big commander, and he hadn't fought a war, and the most important thing was that he couldn't go fast at all with more than a dozen carts of medicine people. Therefore, the army of 50,000 under his name had already gone to the front, and they were completely independent, thinking that others would come out first.

Thus, a peculiar method of warfare was born.

The army besieged the city first, and each tribe took turns to send a horse to attack every day, waiting for the commander Zhao Yingfeng. Even with such a fight, the Ming army's thousands of households still couldn't resist the black pressure of tens of thousands of troops outside the city. And Zhao Yingfeng, who walked very slowly, met several thousands of households on the road, but they were easily taken down when the coach did not arrive.

But Yang Hewei doesn't seem to have reacted from the information about the defeat of Datong Zuowei. When the Tatar army had just arrived and the siege had not yet begun, Yang Hewei was so frightened that he surrendered because he was afraid that the black cars would blow up the city.

I have to say that the moment when the carriage full of thunder rushed to the city gate and exploded was huge. The mere wave of the explosion could knock over the city gates, not to mention the soldiers standing on the city walls and urns. Some of the walls that were not repaired were destroyed in an instant under such an explosion. The sky-high fire, combined with Uncle Pang's proud formation, coupled with the cavalry's storming of the city after the bombing, was almost invincible. Yulin Wei, Datong Right Guard, Datong Left Guard directly collapsed.

Early in the morning received the military report, the three guards suffered heavy casualties, and the Tartar army plundered and marched east. But Yang Hewei didn't think of it, why was the next one not Datong front, back, and middle guards, but Yang Hewei?

However, the surrender of Yang and Wei Kaecheng also made the Tatar troops who arrived first entangled. Tangled and tangled, burning, killing and robbing, these necessary steps are still needed.

However, the troops who entered the city were not happy for long, because the people and defenders in the city had long since run away and were only old, weak, sick and disabled, and the commander of Kaecheng had committed suicide, and the materials obtained were not enough for a few days of military rations.

I don't know which tribe's soldiers set fire to the city in a fit of rage. When Zhao Yingfeng arrived, it was such a scene. So, I had to wait until they had enough of playing and ordered to switch to Tianchengwei.

What made Zhao Yingfeng depressed was that the two hundred warriors in the car didn't use it once along the way. What's worse is that the 200 medicine men who didn't fight in a battle have already died. I didn't expect that the time on the road would consume these medicine people to death.

Helpless, those cavalrymen, talking to themselves, beat Gao Shanwei in their own way.

However, this time, Gao Shanwei had taken precautions and closed the city gate early. Zhao Yingfeng was thinking about it, try these medicine arrays. Who knows, I received a report that Gao Shanwei had been captured. What's going on? Didn't you say that all the good soldiers didn't work hard? sent the little junior brother to spy on it, only to learn that half of the defenders were members of the White Lotus Sect, and after opening the city, they asked to follow Tumochuan to join them.

So, before Zhao Yingfeng arrived at Gaoshanwei, he inexplicably added a thousand infantry.
