However, at this time, because the news of the revenge of the Ming army in Dongjiang came over, most of the Jurchen people around Shenyang had something to do with Shenyang City, and they had been transferred to Shenyang City as soon as possible. This has also greatly reduced or even eliminated the number of people in the wilderness in the surrounding areas of Shenyang. This gave the 800 cavalry led by Lu Xiangsheng the possibility of lurking.

Night was about to fall, and the two Jinyi Guard Captains who were guarding Wei Mulan each held the left and right sides of a large piece of paper, so that the paper could be erected there so that the group of people in front of them could see it clearly. And Lu Xiangsheng stood on the side, pointed to the map with his finger and said: "This is a map of the surrounding areas of Liaoyang drawn by Wei Xiaoqi, which took a lot of effort from the emperor. All the generals have looked carefully, we only have about one day, and we must complete the following. ”

The map is marked with arrows and the like, drawing circles or something, which is a battle map of the Liaoyang area. When Huang Degong and Zuo Liangyu saw this map, they couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

In fact, this map is very detailed, not only indicating the various Zhuangzi outside the city, but even any intersections, roads, fields, and terrain that are not suitable for the cavalry. Keep this map in mind and completely eliminate the discomfort of fighting in a different place. Emperor...... The emperor is really amazing!

They were thinking about it, Lu Xiangsheng had already turned his head to look at Liu Xingzhi, who had been silent, and pointed to a Zhuangzi on the map with his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Our primary goal is to capture this Zhuangzi as bloodless as possible and rescue Liu Dusi's family. This is His Majesty's special advice, and there is absolutely no room for error! ”

Seeing Liu Xingzhi looking over, Lu Xiangsheng nodded and said, "Liu Dusi is responsible for attacking Zhuangzi to save people!" ”

When he said this, Wei Mulan, who was standing on the side, took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Liu Xingzhi, and said at the same time: "This is the picture of Zhuangzi, the day before yesterday, your family was locked up in the red circle area. ”

Liu Xingzhi didn't say a word when he heard this, and silently stretched out his hand to take it. It's just that Wei Mulan was more careful, and noticed that his outstretched hand was trembling slightly.

A man who has been in battle for a long time can even have trembling hands! Wei Mulan knew in her heart that Liu Dusi was nervous. At the moment when he wanted to save his family, at the moment before he wanted to see his family, Liu Dusi was nervous!

She could understand Liu Dusi's mood, so she smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty has asked people to verify before, although your family is a little offended, they are still alive, and they will be able to see you soon!" ”

Liu Xingzhi listened, looked up at Wei Mulan, showed a trace of gratitude on his face, and nodded. But he still didn't speak, and immediately took the paper and looked at it.

Mao Chengzuo, who was standing next to him, saw it, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, but he didn't say anything, and his mind was on this beat.

After Lu Xiangsheng finished watching this scene, he glanced at the generals in front of him and said: "After the appointed moment, Liu Dusi should be able to rescue his family, and you can also start your own goals, and when you succeed, try to make the biggest movement, and the momentum should be loud, so that the Jianyu in Shenyang City can't figure out the details." In this way, we will wait until the day to deliberately show a flaw......"

By the time Lu Xiangsheng confirmed the overall plan, it was already dark. It's a starry night in the month, but it's also convenient to move at night. The four generals immediately clenched their fists and said goodbye to Lu Xiangsheng, and then went to work.

Lu Xiangsheng then turned his head to look at Wei Mulan, and said with a serious face: "The next time will be our most dangerous, you and Liu Dusi's family should go first!" ”

"No, I have to stay with Lord Zhongcheng, so that Lord Zhongcheng can keep abreast of the news everywhere, and the emperor can also know Lord Zhongcheng's actions." Wei Mulan was also very serious, shook her head and replied, "Don't worry, Lord Zhongcheng, I can do it!" ”

Lu Xiangsheng listened, stared at Wei Mulan, and sighed in his heart. This little girl is really stubborn, obviously a lot thinner than before the departure, you can see that she is very tired, but she is still persevering. Although Jin Yiwei is here, he can't manage it. But after going back, you must make it clear in the battle report that the first merit of this battle should be Wei Mulan!

The night is getting deeper and deeper, and there is almost no light around Shenyang at this time. Only those Zhuangzi have lanterns hanging, which shake with the wind and illuminate a place.

In a Zhuangzi firewood house about five miles away from Shenyang, seven women, both young and old, were imprisoned. At the small window, the bright moonlight shone into the firewood room, and I could see the clothes on the seven women, with countless patches, and their faces did not seem to be very good.

At this time, they were gathered around an old woman who was sitting. I saw the old woman pick up a broken bowl from her side, and then said to a little girl in front of her: "Yue'er, you are growing your body, you can drink this bowl of porridge, good!" ”

"No, grandma, it's saved for you to drink." This little girl named Yue'er hurriedly shook her head and excused herself.

"Yes, mother, your body...... You've got to get some porridge! Another older woman crouched down, tilted her head, and said with some concern.

The old woman listened, glanced at them, and suddenly sighed and said, "I don't know what happened to these Jurchens, they have all returned to Shenyang City in the past few days, and the food we have eaten has been reduced by more than half." There are only seven of us here, and there is only one bowl of porridge, how can we live! ”

Hearing her words, everyone in the firewood room fell silent. I couldn't eat enough before, but I was able to fill my stomach somewhat. But for some reason in the past two days, the Jurchens locked up all the Han people, and almost all of them were dying of hunger.

Suddenly, the little girl of Yue'er looked up at the old woman with a crying voice and said, "Grandma, I want to eat meat, I miss the old days, I miss my father......"

As soon as they heard this, they recalled the old days, and several women couldn't help but bow their heads and silently wipe their tears. It's hell like this day compared to before. Not only do you have to work hard, you are reprimanded, but you are often beaten, this kind of life is really difficult!

The old woman listened, stretched out a pair of thin hands and touched Yue'er's hair, then turned her head to look at the women around her, and said slowly: "Are you complaining about ......me in your heart?"

"Mother, we didn't complain about you!" When a woman heard this, she immediately interrupted, "It's just ...... It's just that sometimes when I think about it, I will never see it again, and I ...... in my heart I ...... in my heart."

Later, she couldn't seem to say any more. When the old woman saw this, she sighed and said slowly, "I don't know if their brothers can come back with the imperial army......

Speaking of this, she picked up the bowl of porridge and said to the little girl: "Yue'er, you are still young, maybe you can wait until the day your father and them come back, grandma is old, she will definitely not be able to see it, you can drink this porridge!" If one day, you can still see them, say that grandma died without regrets! ”
