A young officer immediately questioned Sun Jingting, "Lord Sun, why did you ask the surnamed Zhou to escort Ma Wu back?" ”

"This is simply a shame for me and the Yusheng soldiers!"

"Call a group of pole bandits to escort our people back, what does Lord Sun mean by this?"

Zhang Shixiong took a step forward, his eyes burned with anger, he looked directly at Sun Jingting, and said calmly: "Lord Sun, whether Ma Wu violated discipline or not should be judged by the military judge, and then what should be done, how can you ask Zhou Yao to escort him back like a prisoner before the battle?" Isn't this too much attention to the honor of our soldiers? ”

Under Zhang Han's deliberate training, although the soldiers were in the name of the merchant group training, the sense of honor of the soldiers was more than a hundred times stronger than that of the border army under the control of the imperial court.

Sun Jingting looked at Zhang Shixiong and said, "The military judge has already judged that Ma Wu violated discipline, and I ordered Zhou Yao to escort Ma Wu back, which is to enforce military discipline." ”

Zhang Shixiong said stiffly: "Then you can't ask Zhou Yao to do such a thing!" ”

Sun Jingting said: "What's wrong with General Zhou's military status? ”

Zhang Shixiong said: "Lord Sun has been delayed in sending troops to save the lord, and now he is causing civil strife in our army, Shixiong doesn't know what kind of calculation and proposition Lord Sun has in his heart?" ”

"Presumptuous!" Wang Changfu shouted on the side: "You are talking to Shangguan like this? ”

Zhang Shixiong glanced at Wang Changfu, took another step forward, and replied with an impeccable military posture: "The subordinates only know that Lord Zhang's rule is that they can give opinions, obey orders in wartime, not wartime, and do not prohibit subordinates from raising doubts to their superiors. ”

"Good." Sun Jingting stopped Wang Changfu, who was still about to scold, and said to Zhang Shixiong: "The military department has decided to delay the time with the northern captives, and then send out the division after his self-change, and there is no problem for Lord Zhang to stay for a few months, so he is not in a hurry to send troops." Master Li also has the same view, and the military departments of the two places have already communicated and made a decision on this matter. I know you have a lot of doubts, but as long as you are brought out by Lord Zhang, you must keep in mind for me that the military regulations are the fucking military rules, and if you don't obey the fuck, fucking fuck out of Lao Tzu! ”

Sun Jingting has always had an elegant temperament, and at this time, it suddenly broke out, and the surrounding area was silent!

Zhang Shixiong's eyes were red, but he had to salute and retreat.

All the young officers around him were the same, with an unyielding face, but they could only endure it!

Zhou Yao escorted Ma Wu and others back, and reported after giving a military salute to Sun Jingting: "Lord Sun, we assisted Ma Wu and others in their encounter with the main force of the Northern Captives, and after our army raided it, we cooperated with Ma Wu and other troops to defeat it, beheaded more than 300 levels, captured more than 200 military horses, and captured more than 100 people, our army killed 11 people, seriously injured 27 people, and minor injuries were not counted. In this battle, Captain Ma Wuqi personally led his subordinates to break through the enemy formation and capture Taiji Omu Buhong......"

"Ombhuun?"

Sun Jingting was taken aback, and only then did he take a closer look at the captured Mongols in the team, and sure enough, he saw a teenage young nobleman, dressed luxuriously, but his expression was listless, and he looked like he couldn't come back to his senses after being frightened.

"Very well, it's him!" Sun Jingting stayed in Guihua City for a long time, and was often invited to the Khan Palace for banquets, Ombuhong is the eldest son of Bu Shitu Khan, and also the next Great Khan in the future, the young man is noble, and his status in the splendid Khan Palace is second only to Bu Shitu Khan, Sun Jingting has seen him a lot, and he has spoken, so he naturally recognized this young man at a glance.

"Taiji, we're meeting again." Sun Jingting stepped forward, staring at Ombuhong with a smile on his face.

The young Taiji said with a frightened face: "Uncle Sun, please don't kill me, just ask my father Khan to redeem me." ”

"Why is that?" Sun Jingting said with a smile: "Catching you is also an accident, go and rest first, and let's talk in the evening." ”

"Very well done." Sun Jingting nodded slightly to Zhou Yao and said, "Let's go back to the camp as a whole team." ”

Zhou Yao saluted, hesitated, and said to Sun Jingting: "Lord Sun, you should pay attention to it, the mood in the army may be unstable. ”

"I see."

Sun Jingting was also a little hesitant to use Zhou Yao, originally there was some opposition between these newly subordinated people and the merchant soldiers, but fortunately, many of Zhou Yao's subordinates were officers of the merchant group who had communicated to Lingqiu Mountain, and they could still be regarded as a group with each other, after today, I am afraid that this antagonistic sentiment will grow, but using Zhu Dayong to arrest his own subordinates is another damage to Zhu Dayong's prestige and status, and in desperation, he can only ask Zhou Yao to go.

The atmosphere was indeed a little depressing, Zhang Shixiong and the others all had gloomy faces and did not speak, watching Ma Wu being taken away by the people of the Military Justice Department.

After Sun Jingting left, many officers said to Wang Changfu: "Lord Qian, even if Ma Wu is wrong, he is also very meritorious, and he has captured Bu Shitu Khan's sister-in-law, even if he has it, he has resisted it." ”

Wang Changfu waved his hand and said: "Don't say these words, or you will say them to adults in the future, and see if Lord Zhang agrees with your words." ”

Wang Changfu said that this was also a bit of a disappointment, and today's events made him feel a little disappointed and embarrassed.

After dark, Wang Changfu rushed to Sun Jingting, and Sun Jingting said when he met: "The army is arrogant and acts without authorization, this wind cannot be long, what do you think of Changfu?" ”

"Of course I agree." Wang Changfu said: "What I mean, Ma Wu will either be dismissed from the military position, or punished by a lower level, and put him to the end, so that he can start again from the soldiers, so that even if he is promoted again in the future, his qualifications will be greatly affected, and it can be regarded as a reminder to the future." ”

Sun Jingting thought for a moment and said, "Just follow the latter plan, and Changfu will announce it with the military judge." ”

Wang Changfu smiled bitterly and said, "You really found me a good errand." ”

"I've already asked Ombuhong, this kid doesn't know much, only know that there have been a lot of soldiers and horses in the direction of Jining Fort recently, there are already tens of thousands of people before and after, in addition to the soldiers and horses guarding the city on this side of Qingcheng, there is also a garrison in the valley of the east ten miles, and now it is also crossed by us. Omu Buhong was heavily protected and sent to the direction of Jining Fort, because the area around Qingcheng was already very empty. As a result, Ma Wu attacked without authorization, but he caught the northern captives off guard. ”

Wang Changfu pondered: "Could it be that the northern captives really have the courage to attack?" ”

Sun Jingting said: "Last time we withdrew from the Han people, there were thousands of people who were as reluctant to leave as Zhao and Rong, and later I learned that they were all members of the White Lotus Sect, and they were not allowed by my Ming Dynasty, and they have been serving here in Tumut for a hundred and ten years. During the Jiajing period, when Altan Khan proposed peace with the Ming Dynasty for the first time, he also asked for corn for cattle and horses, but the court did not allow it, and when he negotiated peace for the second time, Altan gave up this request, the reason is that tens of thousands of Han people have reclaimed a large amount of arable land, and the tax of Tatars is low. The rest of these people, when their hearts are towards Mongolia, have even been Han Hu, changed their surnames, and are willing to serve the Beiyu, they can make a large number of ordnance, listen to Omu Buhong said, Jining Fort, recently brought a lot of this kind of Han people to serve in front of the army. ”

Wang Changfu wiped his face with his hand, and said half-loudly: "I still think it's too much bluffing, and it doesn't feel right." In my opinion, for the time being, we will still hold our troops, send more personnel from the Military Intelligence Bureau to inquire about the news, strengthen contacts with Xinghebao, and wait for more definite news. Of course, it's up to you to call the shots, I'm just suggesting. ”

Sun Jingting glanced at him and didn't make a sound, Sun Jingting has been obviously emaciated recently, and his eyes are often bloodshot, Wang Changfu is responsible for the military, this kind of battle defense plan can only be decided by Sun Jingting.

……

In the middle of summer in the grassland, the weather is changing, before and after the change, suddenly thunder sounded in the sky, and then lightning flew in the air like a golden snake.

The soldiers had long since fallen asleep, and the streets and courtyards where the merchants lived were occasionally heard talking and moving.

Now they can't do business, and they can't do anything else, and the merchants who have always been busy are particularly uncomfortable when they are idle, and there are no restaurants or brothels in the city, so these merchants can only gather together to play horse hanging, play backgammon and Go, and chat to relieve their boredom.

In the dim light and faint human voice, Li Gui was dressed in oil, feeling the power of heaven and earth and the greatness of manpower, he had just come down from the city, the vast grassland was raging in the wind and rain, I don't know how many wild animals died under such wind and rain, if people stand outside, they feel very dangerous, the individual is too small, but walking on the streets of the city, the feeling of wind and rain is just wind and rain, which makes people very emotional.

Tonight's party was held on the other side of the castle, in the cave of the hidden soldiers, Li Gui intuitively felt a danger, it seemed that the sixth sense was opened, similar to a person walking in the wilderness, and felt the attack of the crisis for no reason.

If it weren't for this feeling, Li Gui might not have participated, he felt that the young officers were too anxious and impatient, and consciously wanted to distance themselves a little.

But if Zhang Shixiong and other people do something dangerous, Li Gui hopes that he is the first to know, just like Xia Xiping stopped himself, and can stop these partners as soon as possible.

Li Gui was also a little moved in his heart, the matter was leaked by him, and he was not excluded......

"Click!" There was another flash of lightning in the sky, Li Gui couldn't help but raise his head, and a silver snake flew in the air, illuminating the entire front of his eyes into a snow.

The Tibetan Soldier Cave in the east was in front of him, and Li Gui also saw many officers and even soldiers gathered here, and the sense of unease in his heart was even stronger.

Li Gui took off his oil coat, a lot of water droplets were sprinkled on the ground, people were wearing oil clothes, the originally dry ground was already wet, Zhang Shixiong sat in the middle of the crowd, looked up and saw Li Gui coming, just nodded.

After a few more people came in, Zhang Shixiong said: "I already have definite news, the Beiyu is transferring troops to Jining Fort. Qingcheng is already extremely empty here, this time the son of the Great Khan of the North was escorted to the direction of Jining Fort is proof, because the Naturalization City is empty, even the remnants of the Han people asked them to send to Jining Haizi, you can imagine how critical the situation there is. ”

Everyone's breathing was a little heavy, Li Gui also thought about this matter today, and there were hidden worries in his heart, after being told by Zhang Shixiong, his mood changed again.
