Chapter 549: Fujian Soldiers and Horses Arrive
Cheng Yue accompanied Xie Daoqing to have dinner and said goodbye and returned home. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Chen Hangyan waiting at the door, chatting with Shi Song.
Seeing Cheng Yue coming back, Chen Hang hurriedly got up and grinned innocently, and when Cheng Yue came closer, Shi Li said: "Governor Dadu, the army is only one day's journey from Lin'an, and my brother-in-law sent his subordinates to report to the Governor of Dadu." ”
Cheng Yue let out an "oh" and said, "It's here tomorrow evening?" ”
Chen hung his eyes and said, "Yes." ”
Cheng Yue nodded and said: "Okay, you rest here for one night, tomorrow I will send someone to meet you with you, after arriving, immediately train with my army, and set off north in half a month." ”
Chen Hangyan said loudly: "Yes." ”
Cheng Yue said a few more words to him, and then asked Shi Song to be in charge of entertaining him. The two men were very agreeable and left happily.
Cheng Yue summoned Ma Fu and ordered him to inform Zhang Gui that nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses would arrive tomorrow and asked him to be responsible for arranging.
After arranging these things, Cheng Yue entered the study, thought about it carefully, and drew up a list, that is, the civil and military generals who would follow him on the Eastern Expedition this time, among which only Li Ting and Liu Guojie were the generals who accompanied him on the Northern Expedition, and the rest were all replaced. There are many generals in the army, and there will be more henchmen under them, so they must be leveled with a bowl of water and give them equal opportunities for meritorious service.
The next day, Zhang Gui sent Wu Jiang and Chen Hangyan to meet the Quanzhou army, and after arriving, they camped thirty miles outside the city. The camp was set up by Zhang Gui in advance, and he could live directly after putting down his luggage. Zhang Gui also personally entered the camp to ask for warmth, which won the voice of gratitude from the Quanzhou army, and Qi exaggerated that the capital supervised the army in a good way, and the confidant general Zhang Junchang was amiable.
Just settled in. The generals of Quanzhou gathered together. Go to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to meet Cheng Yue. Xia Jing's hometown is revisited. The mood is extremely complicated. When Li Dashi heard that Xia Jing had returned to Lin'an, Pegasus rushed from the army to the gate of the Dadu Governor's Mansion to wait, and met him first.
When the two met, they were full of emotion, and they stood at the door and kept talking. Li Dashi held Xia Jing's arm and said, "Big brother, now that I have led an army as a commander, my eldest brother will go on an expedition with the Metropolitan Governor this time. We must also find a way to make more contributions, our brothers are all serving under the command of the Metropolitan Governor, so that this skill is not in vain. ”
Xia Jing sighed: "It's not as good as you as a brother!" You asked me to come to Lin'an three times and twice, but I didn't say anything, I was too late. ”
Li Dashi said with a smile: "It's not too late, it's not too late, isn't it the second time that the Metropolitan Governor has sent troops, the eldest brother can fight well, are you afraid that there will be no chance of meritorious service?" ”
Ma Fu was afraid that Cheng Yue would be impatient to wait, so he urged: "General Xia can go to meet first, and then have a long talk with Commander Li after he comes out." ”
Li Dashi immediately said: "Exactly." Big brother, the coming day is long. Let's talk when the big brother is done. ”
The two hugged their fists and parted.
All the generals went to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion for the first time, and they were full of praise when they saw the excellent scenery. Tian Zhenzi, Sun Shengfu and others were especially happy to be able to enter the room.
When they came to the door of Cheng Yue's study, all the generals became sincerely afraid. You must know that this is now the real center of the Great Song Dynasty, and the fate of the Great Song Dynasty is not above the court, but in this study!
Mrs. Luo took them into the study, Cheng Yue was still commenting on the chapters, and Wan Ze and other women were busy around him.
When Cheng Yue saw them come in, he got up to greet them, and the generals were flattered and hurriedly saluted.
Cheng Yue waved his hand and said: "No need, sit down, we don't have much time to talk, I have already ordered Toulon and Nangjiazhen to train with you, after leaving from here, you will immediately go to find them, sweat more in peacetime, and shed less blood in wartime." ”
The generals said respectfully: "What the Metropolitan Governor said is very true. ”
Cheng Yue asked Ma Fu to step forward, handed him the set list, and said, "You go and send this list to the desk of the generals participating in the war, so that they can get ready." If there is no name on the list, you must not relax, and you must accompany the training well, next year I will march south, and there may be more people to use. ”
Ma Fu took the list, put it in his arms, and walked out quickly.
Cheng Yue spoke to the generals for a while, talking about the way of military training and the situation of the Japanese army, and it was useless to talk a word of superfluous nonsense, and in less than half an hour, Shi Song was ordered to take the generals to train with other armies.
Xu Hanqing and others lifted their spirits and didn't want to be looked down upon by others. He went back and gathered his troops and horses, grabbed the weapons used in the exercise, and soon found the army of Khutouloon and Nangkajin.
The two armies looked at each other from a distance, and Xu Hanqing and the others just wanted to fight and immediately stepped forward to meet each other. Suddenly, with a wave of the banner of Kutolon, she and the two thousand elite Mongolian cavalry of Nangjiazhen immediately swept over! The iron hooves are flying, as fast as thunder!
Xu Hanqing and other generals were shocked, what was going on? Got me wrong?
They can't be allowed to figure it out, Kutoulon and Nangjiazhen have rushed to the front, and the 2,000 cavalry are like wolves and tigers, rushing nearly 20,000 Quanzhou soldiers to pieces, and they can't form an army!
Xu Hanqing and the other generals were dumbfounded, looking at each other, at a loss.
Mrs. Xu was not convinced, and led her five hundred personal soldiers to follow the pursuit, and met Kutoulun who turned around and rushed again, Mrs. Xu saw that Kutoulun was superior, secretly frightened, but not afraid, pulled out two wooden swords, and fought with Kutoulun wielding wooden sticks.
The two female generals are the top masters in the world, and the Toulon is powerful and heavy, and the stick technique has to be more and more subtle, adding dexterity and ferocity. Mrs. Xu's double sword shot, invincible, one sword is faster than the other, and the sword shadows are connected!
Although Ku Toulon is young, he has extremely rich experience in warfare, and these days he has benefited a lot from frequent attacks and defenses with Cheng Yue's generals Zhang Xiaozhong, Totoku and others, but he never thought that there were female generals in the world who could fight with her!
Cheng Yue once mentioned Mrs. Xu in front of them, saying that she was strong in martial arts and a good general. But Kutoulon has not tasted defeat against many Mongolian generals, how can he take a Han woman to heart? Now Fang knows that what Cheng Yue said is not an exaggeration, Mrs. Xu is indeed the only fierce rival she has seen in her life!
In addition to being surprised, he secretly admired Mrs. Xu, so he simply let go of his hands and feet, and the wooden stick in his hand was like a poisonous dragon, bringing a gust of wind to sweep towards Mrs. Xu, and all the moves were killing!
Mrs. Xu became more and more courageous, and she had never met a woman who could put her in a bitter battle! In addition to the excitement, he drank endlessly and launched a confrontation with Kutoulon.
The two went all out, and after a stormy battle, they were tied!
Nang Jiazhen was behind Kutoulon, she wanted to rush from Kutoulun first, she swept behind the formation, and then found the weak point to attack, but she never expected that a handsome woman in front of her wearing men's clothes and holding double swords would actually block Kutoulun and fight with her!
The more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, the generals of the Southern Song Dynasty were really hard to underestimate, Zhang Xiaozhong and others were even so powerful!
Since Kutoulon was blocked, of course Nangjiazhen couldn't just stay and watch, she had to rush their formation more chaotically before the opponent's army was not fully formed. The opponent's Fujian elite soldiers are basically infantry, and it is not difficult for cavalry to do so.
Nang Kajin raised the wooden knife and shouted, "Come with me, rush!" A thousand horsemen immediately followed her and rushed forward.
didn't rush out a few steps, a big man with a wooden axe in his hand, blocking the way of Nangjiazhen, it was Chen Hangyan! When Nangjiazhen's horse came to the front, Chen Hangyan waved his wooden axe and swept towards the wooden knife of Nangjiazhen's hand!
Nang Jiazhen's riding skills are exquisite, and he is short in an instant, dodging the wooden axe, and the wooden knife pierces out from under the horse's belly, cutting Chen Hangyan's right leg.
Chen Hangyan applauded loudly: "Good knife!" The wooden axe was wielded freely, and it reached the side of the leg like lightning, dissolving the real treacherous knife of the bag.
At this time, Xu Hanqing and other generals also came to their senses, and took advantage of Mrs. Xu and Chen Hangyan to entangle Kutoulon and Nangjiazhen, and quickly gathered two thousand personal soldiers and rushed over to help Chen Hangyan.
The two armies fought together, and fierce battles were raging, and from time to time people with broken heads and bleeding withdrew from the battlefield and went to the side for treatment.
After nearly an hour of fighting, Kutoulon's and Nangjiajin's troops were insufficient and gradually unable to support it. Seeing this, Xu Hanqing hurriedly ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops. The two armies were separated from each other and rested and healed.
After waiting for the generals to come to greet him, he asked Mrs. Xu, "You are Mrs. Xu who has been mentioned many times by the Governor of the capital, right?" Sure enough, good martial arts! ”
Mrs. Xu said with a smile: "Don't dare, the two princesses have opened the eyes of the last general, and the Mongolian bow horse really deserves its reputation!" ”
Nang Jiazhen looked at Chen Hangyan with interest and said, "Is it Chen Hangyan?" ”
Chen Hangyan said humbly: "Yes, my subordinate Chen Daju, nicknamed Hangyan." ”
Nang Jiazhen said with satisfaction: "Xianggong's trip to Quanzhou was not in vain, you are very good, and you will try your best to serve the governor in the future and make contributions." ”
The generals said in unison: "Yes, thank you for the princess's teachings." ”
Xia Jing cautiously asked, "Two princesses, I would take the liberty to ask why you suddenly attacked us and others?" Was it the command of the Grand Governor? Do you want to see the combat power of the Quanzhou armies? ”
Hu Tulun said: "This does not need to be ordered by the governor of the capital, the governor of the capital has always been about actual combat, when you see us, our two armies have already started a war, do you still want to say hello?" Is there such a rule on the battlefield? ”
The generals suddenly realized, Tian Zhenzi sighed: "It is no wonder that the Metropolitan Governor is powerful in the world, and his subordinates are all elite soldiers, and they can only understand the subtlety today." ”
Nang Jia was really in a good mood and said with a smile: "Is this a lesson?" It's still early, and there is a lot of knowledge in the use and training of soldiers, and we still haven't understood it thoroughly. ”
Mrs. Xu said happily: "Do we have to practice like this all the time these days?" ”
"Yes, we have been practicing for almost two months, and you are late, so you have to work harder. However, the minister has an explanation, and seeing that the battle is imminent, he should strike lightly, so as not to be injured and unable to go on the expedition. ”
Xu Hanqing hurriedly said: "Since this is the case, the two princesses also ask their subordinates to be merciful." ”
Ku Toulon hooked his finger at Mrs. Xu and challenged: "If you are tired, rest for a while, and we will come again." ”
Mrs. Xu smiled coquettishly: "Is the princess scaring the last general?" The last general is not tired, and he didn't fight enough just now. (To be continued.) )
