Volume 2 Rampant Qilu

Chapter 5 The Brave Tiger and Wolf Sweep the Evil Thief

Section 1 Letters

The soldiers of the Hanwei battalion were assembled in the Gao family manor, preparing to move westward and take Yuncheng directly, and Sun Yuanhua was going to Beijing because he was going to Beijing, so he also went west with Liu Yunwei, preparing to go north after the matter of Wenxiangjiao was resolved.

At this time, Gao Haoran brought some heroes and righteous people who stayed behind to see off the departure son, Liu Yunwei, Lu Ying, Gao Hongguang and several other generals picked up their wine glasses and drank Zhuangxing wine with Gao Haoran.

Then, Liu Yunwei hugged his fists at Gao Haoran and said: "These days, thanks to the help of Gao Yuanwai, I have been able to force all the forces of the Wenxiang Sect out, and Yunwei has thanked the outsiders here!" ”

Gao Haoran said: "President Liu Qian raised troops to exterminate the Wenxiang Sect, that is asking for the lives of the people of Shandong, it should be me on behalf of the fathers and elders of Shandong to thank President Liu Qian!" ”

Liu Yunwei said: "How dare Yunwei be? The soldiers of my Hanwei battalion have received a lot of help from the senior officers, and when he leads the soldiers into battle, he must fight bravely to kill the enemy to thank the senior officers! ”

"Good!" Gao Haoran laughed and said: "Then I am here, congratulations to President Liu Qianqi for his victory!" ”

Liu Yunwei also hugged his fists and said: "Thank you, then Yunwei will not pass 1"

Lu Ying, Gao Hongguang and others also hugged their fists and saluted one after another, saying goodbye to Gao Haoran. At this time, Gao Haoran saw Gao Hongguang, who was dressed in armor, and specially advised: "Hongguang, from now on, you will be the general of the Ming Dynasty, and you will no longer be an unrestrained ranger, and everything must be given priority by military orders!" Don't insult the reputation of our Gao family. ”

Gao Hongguang went down to worship and be taught.

So, under the farewell of Gao Haoran and others, the soldiers of the Hanwei Battalion were ready to go, opened the Gao family manor according to the system, and stood by outside the manor.

At this time, everyone saw a person who hurried back to the Gao family manor and handed over an urgent letter to Liu Yunwei.

Liu Yunwei looked at the cover of the letter, only to see a red feather very dazzling, and suddenly shouted in his heart: "Not good!" ”

At this time, Lu Ying next to him noticed Liu Yunwei's expression and asked in a low voice, "Big brother, is something wrong?" ”

Liu Yunwei said quietly: "It's an urgent report that won't be collected at night, let the brigade set off first, don't delay the start of the army." ”

Lu Ying didn't ask much, so he went to order the leader to pull out. With a swan whistle, nearly 5,000 soldiers of the Hanwei battalion lined up, drove out of the Gao family manor, and headed towards Yuncheng in the west.

After Liu Yunwei rode his horse for a while, he stopped outside the marching team and opened the letter alone, only to see a bad news jump on the paper:

Yun Weixian's nephew revealed:

Since the virtuous nephew led the Hanwei camp south, the situation in Liaodong has taken a sharp turn for the worse. First Kaiyuan, Tieling cities fell into the hands of Jiannu, and then dozens of castles were destroyed by Jiannu, people everywhere were displaced, families were ruined, and now the defense north of Shenyang is already in vain! Although there is Liaodong Jingluo Xiong Tingbi's painstaking management, but the situation is pressing, Xiong Jingluo can only fortify everywhere and retreat step by step, but he has temporarily stopped Jiannu's offensive.

Just half a month ago, Beizhen Fuji received an important message that the Gwanghaejun of the Joseon Kingdom had sent an envoy to Hetuara at the beginning of May of the 47th year of Wanli to thank the slave chieftain Nurhachi for releasing the Korean soldiers captured in the Battle of Sarhu, and assured Nurhachi that the Korean kingdom would adopt a neutral policy in future wars between the dynasty and Jiannu.

Although this news is still being confirmed, once it is confirmed to be true, then North Korea's move will be a cut off the arm of the DPRK for the DPRK! For Jiannu, there are fewer worries, and in the future, Jiannu Iron Cavalry can attack all parts of Liaodong more unscrupulously. It's hateful that North Korea disregards the grace of the rebirth of the country, and even ends up with the first rat of the Jiannu Tartars, which is simply ungrateful!

At present, all I can know is this, I hope that the virtuous nephew can keep in mind the mission, forge ahead, and be able to lead the tiger and wolf army back to Liaodong as soon as possible. In the future, I will try my best to keep in touch with my nephew and keep you informed of the current situation in Liaodong from time to time.

Li Linbin"

It turned out that long before Liu Yunwei left Lushun, on the night when he and Yuan Mingxuan were admiring the moon, the two felt that they were about to leave Liaodong and could not know the situation in Liaodong in time, so they discussed a solution; Yuan Mingxuan sent all his remaining subordinates to the Beijing Division, and got in touch with Li Linbin, the squire of the military department, and asked him to try to inform Liu Yunwei of the recent situation in Liaodong, after all, once any major event happened in Liaodong, the imperial military department would know about it in time.

It's just that Liu Yunwei never expected that he had just arrived in Shandong and received such an amazing news! The situation in Liaodong did not begin to improve because of Xiong Tingbi's arrival, but was further deteriorating.

At this time, Liu Yunwei's good mood was all gone, replaced by thick melancholy and endless anger!

At this time, Sun Yuanhua rode his horse and said to Liu Yunwei from afar: "It turns out that Liu Qian is here, so I can find it." ”

When Liu Yunwei heard this, he put away his thoughts, smiled at Sun Yuanhua, and said, "Mr. Sun is looking for me? ”

"Yes, there is something I want to talk to Mr. Liu Qian about." Sun Yuanhua rode a horse to Liu Yunwei and said: "The day before yesterday, I received a letter from my mentor, in which I said that my mentor was writing to the imperial court, asking the imperial court to set up a new yamen to specialize in training new-style combat barracks, just like the Qi family's army. ”

Liu Yunwei was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly asked: "Mr. Sun's mentor is Master Xu Guangqi, if that's the case, wouldn't it be the Qi family's army everywhere in the future?" That's a great thing! Mr. Xu is really the dry city of the country! ”

Sun Yuanhua looked at Liu Yunwei, who was very happy, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Liu Qian, I'm afraid things are not so simple." ”

Liu Yunwei was slightly stunned and asked, "Could it be that Master Xu has encountered any difficulties?" ”

Sun Yuanhua nodded and said: "The teacher has indeed encountered some problems, one is that the opposition of the DPRK and China is too loud now, and the main excuse is that the food is insufficient, so even if this matter is done, the number of new-style war battalions will not be very large, and the situation that Liu Qian envisioned is full of Qi family troops is probably no fun; Moreover, there are no generals who are willing to lead such a new type of war battalion. ”

Liu Yunwei asked a little strangely when he heard this: "The Qi family army is famous all over the world, and the new war battalion set up after the Qi family army will definitely be the elite of the elite, why is no one willing to lead it?" ”

"Because of the silver!" Sun Yuanhua said with some anger: "Compared with the previous battalion, there are very few places where the new battalion can make money, and the leading generals can't eat empty salaries and drink the blood of soldiers, and they can't get any money if they want to break their heads, and they have to take the risk of going into battle after training, of course no one wants to go." ”

After Liu Yunwei listened, he only felt very sad and said: "Yue Wumu once said: Civil officials don't love money, and military generals don't spare their lives, then the world can be safe!" But what has become of the dynasty now? No matter how martial arts you go, you love money as much as your life! ”

Sun Yuanhua shook his head and said, "There is still a good official who is dedicated to the country." ”

Liu Yunwei sighed heavily and said, "It's a pity, it's too little, too little!" ”

"I've thought about it for the past two days, and I've always wanted to ask Mr. Liu Qian." Sun Yuanhua paused, and then said, "I wonder if Mr. Liu Qian is interested in accomplishing this big thing with his teacher?" ”

Liu Yunwei thought about it and looked very entangled, Sun Yuanhua looked at Liu Yunwei who was thinking hard and didn't interfere with him, just rode his horse and stood beside him, quietly waiting for Liu Yunwei to come up with his own thoughts.

After a while, Liu Yunwei said to Sun Yuanhua sincerely: "Mr. Sun, I'm afraid Yunwei is going to disappoint you, I have to go to Sichuan, after all, my father and wife have not yet settled in the earth, and my mother also needs my care; Moreover, I have to reorganize my grandfather's old subordinates when I return to Sichuan this time, so I can't go to help Mr. Xu for the time being. ”

Sun Yuanhua didn't seem very disappointed after listening to it, but said: "Mr. Liu Qian doesn't have to care, I know that Mr. Liu Qian also has his own difficulties." ”

Liu Yunwei hugged his fists and thanked: "Thank you Mr. Sun for your understanding, but Mr. Sun can rest assured that after Yunwei returns to Sichuan to deal with his own affairs, as long as Master Xu is called, Yunwei will definitely answer the call!" ”

"Okay." Sun Yuanhua said with a smile: "With Mr. Liu Qian's words, my heart is much more steady." ”

The two talked for a while, and then rode side by side, following the brigade of the Hanwei battalion to the west.

After a while, Wen Poyu rode his horse to find Liu Yunwei, first saluted Sun Yuanhua, and then said: "Big brother, some situations have been discovered in the front, and a group of mountain bandits have been found in Huashan in the north and Lishan in the south. Moreover, these two groups of mountain bandits are mobilizing people, and it seems that they are both coming for us. ”

Liu Yunwei and Sun Yuanhua glanced at each other, and then said, "How many people are there in each of these two groups of mountain bandits?" ”

"There are about 1,000 people each."

"What can such a small man do? Did these two gang of mountain bandits go crazy and dare to take the initiative to provoke nearly 5,000 elite officers and soldiers? Liu Yunwei said suspiciously. Immediately afterwards, Liu Yunwei reacted and said, "It's the Smelling Fragrance Sect!" ”

Wen Poyu nodded and said, "Yes, big brother, my subordinates will not be found at night, and these two gang of mountain bandits have something to do with the Wenxiang Sect." ”

Sun Yuanhua thought for a while, and said suspiciously: "Then what can they do when they come here, send them to death?" ”

Liu Yunwei sneered and said, "It's certain to die, if you don't get the Smell Fragrance Sect, you still have the intention of delaying our march." Anyway, these bandits are not very useful, just to buy some time to prepare. ”

Wen Poyu asked, "Big brother, what should we do then?" ”

Liu Yunwei snorted coldly and said: "I said when we set off, we will meet gods and kill gods and Buddhas along the way, and it would be good to crush the past directly with such a small goods!" Order: Gao Hongguang led the Eagle Yang Department to attack Huashan, Zhao Kaishan led the Tiger Ben Department to attack Lishan, and the main force of the army continued to advance without stopping! ”
