But just after Zhang Mingtong stopped talking, Zhang Shihui stared at his eyes and said: "Mingtong told me that I am the main general, I should know!" ”

Hearing Zhang Shihui say such words, Zhang Mingtong was silent for a while, and finally couldn't help but inform Zhang Shihui of the casualties and losses.

And Zhang Shihui knew about this, and his eyes looked at the roof of the tent blankly, but he couldn't help but be silent again.

"There were more than 4,300 casualties, and more than 5,000 pairs of plate armor were lost, and it was really a fiasco, it was really a fiasco! cough, cough, cough, cough ......" gritted his teeth and muttered, but Zhang Shihui couldn't help coughing violently.

Seeing this, Zhang Mingtong and the others couldn't help but be shocked, and couldn't help but hurriedly hail Doctor Chen, who was waiting on the side.

"General, you have to take care of yourself, General." When Zhang Shihui's emotions calmed down, the wounds on his body did not open again, and Zhang Yang, the deputy Wanhu, looked at Zhang Shihui and couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.

However, in this regard, Zhang Mingtong smiled miserably, but said: "Take care of your body, take care of your body." Because of my incompetence, the 4,000 soldiers who were killed lost their lives in vain. I hate it, I hate it! As he said this, he couldn't help coughing violently again.

And this time, the few wounds on his body that had just healed couldn't help but open again.

"General! General! Seeing this, the three of Zhang Mingtong, who were shocked, couldn't help but exclaim again.

But at this time, the doctor surnamed Chen turned around abruptly and scolded Zhang Mingtong and the others: "What's the name of the ghost, don't you think the situation is not enough?" If you don't let me out, I won't let you in, so don't come and disturb the patient's rest!" ”

Such a reprimand can also be described as merciless.

However, Zhang Mingtong couldn't help but obediently close his mouth, not daring to say anything more. After all, Zhang Shihui's safety is not to mention, this Dr. Chen Yi Chen is really one in a million surgical miracles.

Over the years, the black-clothed sergeants who were rescued by this Divine Doctor Chen, before and after, add up, there are really hundreds of people.

Therefore, for this Doctor Chen, Zhang Mingtong and the three of them are also very respectful. Therefore, after being scolded like this, Zhang Mingtong and the three couldn't help but bow silently, and then withdrew from the camp with their heads down.

……

Another day passed, on May 29. Because the Suizhou fiasco was really important, it only took one day to rush under the rush of one person and three horses. Then, on the morning of May 29, the heralds sent by Zhang Mingtong came to Xiangyang City without a single person or three horses.

"Lord, there's an urgent report from De'an Mansion, look." In the marshal's mansion, at the first time he received the urgent report, Li Wu, as the commander of the guard, didn't look at it, so he couldn't help but hand it over to Zhang Shihua at the first time.

In response to this, Zhang Shihua took the urgent report, with a slight smile on his face, but he couldn't help but say: "The urgent report from De'an, could it be that Shihui and they captured Suizhou so quickly." Saying so self-consciously, Zhang Shihua couldn't help but open the urgent report that was sealed.

"This ......" silently finished reading the urgent report, but Zhang Shihua's face couldn't help but be gloomy all of a sudden. That complexion even feels like a dark cloud.

"Lord, is it ......" Seeing Zhang Shihua's appearance suddenly, Li Wu was cautious, but he still didn't dare to say the worst guess in his heart.

However, at this time, Zhang Shihua sighed silently: "That's right, Shihui and they were defeated." Moreover, it was a fiasco, with 14,000 soldiers suffering more than 4,300 casualties, and even more than 5,000 pairs of plate armor were captured. ”

"What! This ......" suddenly heard such news. Even though he had just guessed that De'an's side should attack and should have suffered a setback, Li Wu couldn't help but be stunned on the spot. Because he really didn't expect that Zhang Shihui's side would be defeated to such an extent when his troops far exceeded the enemy.

At the beginning, he Li Wu thought that after the army captured Suizhou, the casualties were a little too great. But they never expected that they would fail, and it was such a fiasco.

"Lord, then, General Zhongyao, he ......" After reacting a little from the huge shock, Li Wu couldn't help but sweat for Zhang Shihui.

After all, suffering such an unprecedented defeat, Zhang Shihui, as the main general, cannot escape his responsibility no matter what. Therefore, Li Wu couldn't help but start to guess what kind of punishment Zhang Shihui and Zhang Mingtong, the two leading generals, would suffer.

However, what Li Wu didn't expect again. Hearing him talk about Zhang Shihui, behind the table, Zhang Shihua looked at the urgent report, but couldn't help but sigh silently: "Zhong Yao, he was seriously injured, and the rout of the army was also because of this." ”

"This ......" Hearing this, Li Wu's heart jumped, and he couldn't help but close his mouth. Because the matter is already unclear at this point.

Although it is said that from the perspective of the law alone, no matter what the reason for the defeat of the army, Zhang Shihui, as the chief general, cannot escape the responsibility of unfavorable command. But on the other hand, from the perspective of human feelings, the main generals were seriously injured because of the battle, and if they had to be punished in this way, it would be too harsh.

In particular, Zhang Shihui, who is the main general, is also a cousin of his father-in-law. In this era when helping relatives does not help, and the family is greater than the sky. Zhang Shihui was defeated, even if he was not injured, it was impossible for Zhang Shihua, as his brother, to punish him with military law, let alone after being seriously injured.

So at this time, Li Wu couldn't help but close his mouth tightly and pretended to be a wooden man. After all, if he is an outsider involved in something like this, it will only be Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror - he is not a person inside and out.

"Hey!" The room was quiet for a long time. After a long time, Li Wu couldn't help but hear his lord sigh.

"Ah Wu, give the order. Ordered Mingtong to temporarily take the position of the chief general, and then lead the army to withdraw, and the De'an Mansion will not attack for the time being. Zhang Shihua said this, and his face couldn't help but be slightly ugly.

After all, this is the first defeat suffered by Zhang Shihua since the uprising, and the depression in his heart can be imagined. Therefore, even if Zhang Shihua wanted to hide his emotions, the strong feeling in his heart couldn't help but be revealed.

So after seeing Zhang Shihua's appearance, Li Wu couldn't help but sing a promise, and then prepared to leave the study.

But he didn't expect that at this time, Yu Junda, the secret guard Qianhu, couldn't help but take a newspaper and came to the door in three steps and two steps.

"My lord, there will be something important to report at the end!" Yu Junda said aloud outside the door. Then he saw Li Wu walking out of the study, and he couldn't help but bow to Li Wu.

And when Li Wu saw this, although he was a little curious about what 'important things' Yu Junda had. But Li Wu, who knew what to be curious about and what not to be curious about, just nodded to Yu Junda, and then left with a step.

"It's Junda, come in." Hearing Yu Junda's voice outside the door, Zhang Shihua took a deep breath, and after putting down his previous emotions, he couldn't help but let Yu Junda enter the house.

"The last will meet the lord!" And over there, Yu Junda was after entering the house. When he saw Zhang Shihua, he couldn't help but kneel on the ground and saluted Zhang Shihua.

Seeing this, Zhang Shihua smiled and nodded, then waved his hand, said "no courtesy", and let him stand up from the ground.

"Lord, this is the latest newspaper of the Yuanmeng Imperial Court, but twelve or thirteen days ago, a great event happened in the Gaoyou Mansion. Lord, please see. After getting up from the ground, without waiting for Zhang Shihua to ask anything, Yu Junda couldn't help but pour beans into a bamboo tube and tell the matter as it was.

Then, he couldn't help but respectfully present the report to Zhang Shihua.

Seeing this, Zhang Shihua raised his eyebrows slightly, and couldn't help but reach out and take the newspaper. Then he couldn't help but look at the key position marked by Yu Junda.

"What, Zhang Shicheng made a mess of Gaoyou, trapped Gaoyou Mansion, and the country was called Da Zhou, claiming to be King Cheng, and Jianyuan Tianyou." I suddenly saw such a news. Zhang Shihua couldn't help but read out the contents of the newspaper in surprise.

However, after such a surprised emotion, Zhang Shihua slowly put down the newspaper, but a smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

But I didn't expect that not long ago, I was worried that I would attract the siege of the Yuanmeng court because of the 'tree big wind'. But I didn't expect that at this time, a mocking Zhang Shicheng suddenly appeared.

Occupying Gaoyou to block Caoyun, Zhang Shicheng even called Wang Jianji and established his own country, he really didn't exist when the Yuanmeng court didn't exist.

Thinking so silently in his heart, the smile on Zhang Shihua's face couldn't help but become more and more intense.

After all, in the original history, it was because of Zhang Shicheng's ridicule that the prime minister of Yuan and Mongolia got rid of it, and raised millions of troops to march south again. And it was because of this southern expedition that he was defeated and died with the full "assistance" of his pig teammates in the Yuanmeng court, and even lost the last family of the Yuanmeng court.

Therefore, from a historical point of view, Zhang Shicheng's uprising in Gaoyou also represents that the era of warlord melee in the late Yuan Dynasty will be completely reached.

Because after the death of Totok, the Yuan and Mongolian courts will completely lose control of the local power. From then on, even on the side of the Yuan and Mongolian courts, there will be a chaotic situation of 'if there is a soldier, you are the master, and you will not listen to the announcement'.

And only at that time did the rebel forces like Zhang Shihua begin to develop unscrupulously.

So when Zhang Shihua heard that Zhang Shicheng was occupying Gaoyou like history, he didn't care so much about the failure of De'an.

Because at this time, the Yuanmeng court will obviously take Zhang Shicheng, who blocked Caoyun, as the primary target of attack. Even the importance of attacking him is estimated to be higher than that of the remnants of the heavens.

After all, Yuan Dadu is a metropolis with a population of more than one million, and if such a metropolis is not supplemented by Caoyun, then what kind of chaos will occur can also be imagined.

You must know that when Sesame Li occupied Xuzhou, the price of grain in Yuan Dadu suddenly increased by three or four times. Later, even the Yuanmeng court had to open all the granaries in Gyeonggi to level the grain price.

But even so, there was still a food shortage in Yuan Dadu. Even according to the news received by Zhang Shihua, because the sesame plum blocked the Cao Yun, the Yuan Dadu added up before and after, and more than 100,000 ordinary people starved to death. So much so that the capital of Yuan was in chaos to the point where it had to rely on the army to maintain law and order.

Therefore, with the experience of sesame lee, it is impossible for the Yuanmeng court to block Caoyun.

Because the current Yuanmeng court really can't afford the harm caused by the blockade of Caoyun again.

In the past, when the sesame plum was used, the Yuan capital could still use the grain from the granary of Gyeonggi to level the price of grain. But now, especially in this process, in June of the previous year, there were 716,980 hungry people in the eleven counties of Daming Lukai, Slippery, Junzhou, and Yuancheng. The granaries in Gyeonggi are now empty and ready for horses.

Therefore, when the Yuanmeng court received the news that Gaoyou was occupied and Caoyun was blocked again, it was also completely panicked. Even an iron-blooded prime minister like Tokhoff is ready to come up with a way to recruit an to solve the problem of Zhang Shicheng occupying Gaoyou.

And the conditions offered this time are really as Zhang Shicheng thought before, and he is ready to give him a real Wanhu official. As for Zhang Shicheng's previous killing of Zhao Lian, who participated in the provincial government, no one cares about it at this time.

Therefore, after receiving the order from the court above. As the prefect of Gaoyou, Li Qi couldn't help but take the holy decree of the imperial court and came to Gaoyou City again.

But this time, what the Yuanmeng court never expected was that after calling Wang Jianji, Zhang Shicheng had no feeling for the Wanhu officials he had been thinking about before.

So as soon as Li Qi came, Zhang Shicheng didn't even see him, so he was imprisoned. Then Zhang Shicheng took Li Qi as a hostage and began to delay time with the Yuanmeng court and fight each other.

However, in this process, Zhang Shicheng also met Li Qi, but it was precisely because of this meeting that Li Qi's death was also caused.

History Shuyan: The thief took Li Qi as a hostage and made him kneel. Li Qi said: "My knees are like iron, how can I be willing to give in to the thief!" Zhang Shicheng was angry and forced him to kneel, Li Qi stood upright and was pulled down, then his knee was crushed, and then he was chopped to death. At this point, the champion of the left list in the first year of the Yuan Yuan Dynasty also died in humiliation for the court he was loyal to.

Later, people talked about the three leaders of the Daoyuan Imperial Examination: Tai Buhua was lost at sea, Li Hao fell in Jiujiang, and Li Qi died in the city, all of which lived up to what they had learned.
