156 Honors
"You're going to have to worry about that." Tang Shunzhi then smiled and said, "Senator Yang is not a person with a backbone, if he can't beat him, he will naturally run, do you really think he is Jie'an?" ”
Hu Zongxian followed with a smile: "Brother Yingde's figure is too high!" Looking at the millennium, there can be a few Yu Qian! ”
"I'm just confused." Tang Shunzhi turned to look at Xu Wenchang, "I have been in the same room with Yang Changfan for more than a month, he only reads a few words, and never asks for advice when he has doubts, I am in front of him, he is more willing to talk with the officials, I occasionally remind him of some of the essentials of reading, he is just a promise, is it possible that he has any more clever ideas?" ”
Xu Wenchang naturally couldn't say that Yang Changfan's ideas were more clever than Wang Mingyang's, so he only avoided the words and said: "He is not a talent, he is a genius, and he does not have any eloquence, but more of strange skills." ”
Tang Shunzhi and Hu Zongxian heard this, both of them were from famous families, and they were both Jinshi and first, and the most despised thing was probably this kind of trick and trick.
Tang Shunzhi was silent and asked, "What kind of tricks and tricks can make you refuse Ruzhen's invitation and enter Yang Changfan's account?" ”
This is an embarrassing question, and it was finally raised by Tang Shunzhi.
Xu Wenchang was thinking about how to deal with it, and the commander who hurriedly pushed the door in helped him out of the siege.
The commander didn't care about etiquette at this time, and his head and face were four big words: "Jiangning has fallen!! ”
Tang Shunzhi and Hu Zongxian froze directly on the chairs, and their hearts seemed to be emptied in an instant.
Wei Xu Wenchang trembled and got up: "When is the news?" ”
"It should have been yesterday......"
"Hmm......" Xu Wenchang thought for a while, and his expression was uplifted again. Suzhou Ministry Defense! Surround and destroy the ghosts! ”
Xu Wenchang's thinking was too jumpy. No one understood.
Xu Wenchang saw that the two did not react. Then he urged: "Give the order first, and then listen to me!" ”
In such a panicked situation, only Xu Wenchang remained calm, and Hu Zongxian was already confused, so he had to hurriedly order to send Yu Dayou and Lu Bo, who were dismissed from their posts, to lead a heavy army to Suzhou to strictly defend it, and Tang Shun felt ashamed. Please be ordered to accompany the army, and in an instant, most of the elite soldiers in Hangzhou will be removed.
With Xu Wenchang's strategy, the time for such a large-scale deployment of a cup of tea was allocated, Hu Zongxian could only be secretly surprised, and only after all the cooking was over, he closed the door and asked the reason.
Xu Wenchang breathed a sigh of relief and answered in as simple language as possible: "It is impossible for the ghosts to capture Nanjing, and General Qi will rush to help after he gets the report." Three days at most, and the ghost and widow will not attack the city for three days. Later, General Qi pursued the troops, but they had to retreat to the east. Return to Takubayashi to cross the East China Sea and return to Kyushu. At this time, Hangzhou's troops were too late to aid Nanjing, and they should guard the throat of Suzhou and seal the retreat of the ghosts and widows, so that they could be completely annihilated. ”
"What if the ghost crosses the river?"
"Ghosts don't cross the river."
"Why?"
"Because except for Xu Hai, everyone else's homes are in Kyushu."
"Then ......" Hu Zongxian asked instead, "Senator Yang ......"
"These are all deployments after Yang Changfan's defeat. If Yang Changfan wins, the Hangzhou soldiers will withdraw directly. Xu Wenchang sat down slowly, his expression gradually calming, "Now I don't have to worry, Yang Changfan's battle should have a result." Life and death are fateful, wealth is in the sky, we just wait. ”
......Hu Zongxian also sat down, wiped his sweat, and felt nostalgic, "If there is the assistance of the chief of the text, why worry about the chaos in the southeast......
Xu Wenchang did not speak, he knew very well that the Japanese rebellion was never about how powerful the Japanese were, but about the internal problems of China, and the siege of Nanjing by more than 40 Japanese invaders happened to prove this.
Yang Changfan, do what you can......
Under the city of Nanjing, there are no corpses all over the field, only patches of blood.
For more than a day, the Thirteen Gates of Nanjing were almost stained with blood. The soldiers and civilians defended the city gates, except for the occasional injuries to the ghosts, there was no victory, but more than 800 casualties, almost entirely defended by numbers. Every time the ghost attack the door, a group of people will rush up to fight hard, until the ghost wolf's knife is blunt, the ghost will lose strength, the ghost will naturally withdraw, the Ming army seized the time to collect the corpse and clean up, the news of another city gate will come again.
Zhang Shiche at least did his duty, never closed his eyes for more than a day, and always commanded the front line of the city gate, although he could not lift a knife to kill the enemy, but at least he could inspire the morale of the army, so that the sergeants went forward and blocked the city of Nanjing with flesh and blood.
It was noon, the ghosts and widows were rampant, and they actually camped in the open space outside the Ande Gate, lit a fire, and after eating meat and drinking, they even took a nap on the spot in front of the Ming army.
The soldiers of the Ming army were extremely tired, and seeing that the ghosts were so arrogant, a young general finally asked for orders to attack, but Zhang Shiche rejected them one by one and insisted on defending them. The young generals' eyes were red, and they only hated to serve the country and had no way.
The ghost widow did not sleep wholeheartedly, Xu Hai looked meditative, his mouth seemed to be chanting, and he was actually talking to the lying ghost widow.
Although the morale of the ghost is strong, although there are no casualties in the whole process, but after all, there are only 42 people, and one person will cut twenty or thirty people will eventually be short of breath, and the knife will be dull.
Xu Hai naturally knew this, and always adhered to the tactic of frustrating his spirit and forcing the government to abandon the people of Nanjing and flee from the city. But the guard general is a big coward, neither fighting nor fleeing, using corpses to block, using the heritage of a Nanjing city to fight with them, over time, the ghosts and widows are finally a little unable to kill.
"Forget it, let's go." A black-bearded ghost advised, "That's it, I'm tired." ”
"There are too many people in Daming, and we can't kill a hundred of them a day."
"Drag it down, the army with horses and guns will come."
Xu Hai withstood these pressures and remained calm: "I have calculated that the reinforcements will arrive in Nanjing in three days at the earliest, and we will fight for another day." ”
The black-bearded ghost frowned and said, "What's the point of killing a few more people?" ”
"This is Nanjing." Xu Hai opened his eyes slightly and stared at the city, "For money, for women, we have no pursuit. The rest is to engrave our name in history, which is the shame of the Ming Dynasty and the glory of Kyushu. You have given up your loyalty to follow the daimyo seppuku, don't you want to regain your honor here? ”
The black-bearded ghost turned his head sideways to avoid Xu Hai's gaze: "Ronin, you have long lost your honor." ”
"Then the opportunity to regain honor should not be passed up." Xu Hai said in a deep voice, "This must be the last day, we have figured out the strength of the Ming army, let's attack the city in two ways, the last day, it is definitely the last day." ”
Dozens of ghost wives looked at each other and finally nodded.
The black-bearded oni gently set up his katana, picked up the fine grindstone, slowly added water, and gently sharpened the knife with extremely soft force, muttering, "We believe in you, without you, we can't find an enemy, without an enemy, we don't know how to live." ”
The sound of dozens of ghosts sharpening their knives is like a prelude to the autumn wind, heralding the arrival of blood.
In the mountains and forests in the distance, Teqi was already itching with hatred. (To be continued.) )
