readx; Lu Xiangsheng sprinkled wine to commemorate the heroic souls of the martyrs, and the second cup was only drunk in one go, and he was already in tears. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Li Dingguo and the others couldn't help but be moved, but Guo Zhicong was quite unimpressed, and complimented him with a dry smile: "I have long heard that when the governor was the prefect of the daimyo, he created a 'Tianxiong army', which was invincible against the thieves, and the thieves were terrified. Today's defeat in the first battle, the governor has made miraculous achievements, and he will be rewarded by the imperial court. The old decay is all over the court, all of them are mediocre people, and no one has the ability to turn the tide. From this point of view, the governor will soon rise to the top, and it is only a matter of time before he enters the cabinet to pay respects. Come, old decay to the governor with a drink! ”

Several escorts echoed one after another, and Lu Xiangsheng had to raise his glass to drink because of his face. Jin Tongwu and other officers were really hungry, and they didn't bother to be polite to everyone at the table, so they just lowered their heads and ate violently. Before the third round of wine, most of the 'chickens' had already gotten down Jin Tongwu's stomach, Guo Zhicong and the others didn't say anything, but their eyes 'revealed' their 'color' of disdain.

Ma Qianxue couldn't get used to Guo Zhicong's style, picked up a 'chicken' and 'leg', and stared at him defiantly while chewing fiercely. Although Guo Zhicong was angry in his heart, he was not easy to attack because of Lu Xiangsheng's face, so he just toasted Lu Xiangsheng with a glass of left and right, and kept complimenting him: "With the governor and your Tianxiong army sitting here, forgive Jianyu and dare not come again!" ”

Lu Xiangsheng sighed and said, "This team was indeed recruited by me during my tenure as the prefect of the Daimyo. At that time, the imperial court had no food and no salary, but fortunately, thanks to the help of local fathers and elders, and the students also sold their land in their hometown of Yixing, they barely bought some ordnance and horses. The soldiers recruited were all from the three prefectures of Daimyo, Guangping, and Shunde, and most of them were fathers and sons, brothers, uncles and nephews who enlisted in the army together, and they shared the same blood and hatred for the enemy. If one person is killed in battle, the whole army will avenge him. Compared with Jianyu, in fact, these soldiers bow horses are quite inferior, and the students only use the word 'brave' from them. ”

"Not only are the soldiers brave, but the governor is even more brave to champion the three armies!" Guo Zhicong tried his best to please Lu Xiangsheng, so he preached to the others with his eyebrows flying and dancing to others, "When the 'fierce' battle was in full swing, the old man dared to go up to the city to peek, only to see the governor taking the lead, wielding a big knife and repeatedly clashing with the Jianyu formation, and killing seven or eight Tartars with his own hands without much effort, the enemy soldiers dared not to be afraid!" It seems that the governor is such a civil and military all-rounder, and he can be called the first person since the founding of the Ming Dynasty! ”

Everyone applauded, but Lu Xiangsheng said indifferently: "The elder of the pavilion is too famous." This army was short of food and wages, uprooted from their hometowns, and suffered a lot of losses in dozens of battles with thieves, but the state affairs were difficult, and the students couldn't give them anything. Therefore, the students can only share the weal and woe with the soldiers, and the students will eat whatever they eat; Everyone couldn't eat, and the students didn't dare to eat. When fighting, we must set an example and fight hard to kill the enemy, otherwise how can we control the crowd? ”

Li Dingguo and others were deeply touched when they heard it, but Guo Zhicong listened to it but was quite useless, thinking that raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, being a soldier and fighting was originally a matter of selling his life, Lu Xiang was promoted to a local official, and he exalted ordinary soldiers so highly, which was really self-deprecating and insulting. But now he is counting on Lu Xiangsheng to protect him, so he naturally refuses to offend Lu Xiangsheng, and after persuading him to drink a few times, he leaves the table to arrange for the cook to serve the food.

Taking advantage of Guo Zhicong's departure for a short while, Li Dingguo asked Lu Xiangsheng in a low voice: "Lord Governor, didn't the Holy Lord already have a will, and the Xuan and the big officials and troops should guard the Xuanfu Mansion and not rush to rescue the Jingshi?" How did you end up surrounded by Tartars here? ”

Lu Xiangsheng drank a glass of wine, smiled bitterly, and lowered his voice: "It's not for this Guo Ge Lao. This Zhuolu Town was originally under the jurisdiction of Shuntianfu Baoan Prefecture and was not under the rule of Xuanfu. However, according to the will of the Holy Lord, the military and civilians of all prefectures and counties in the northwest of Beijing must be temporarily withdrawn to Xuanfu. Now the other prefectures and counties have withdrawn, and only Zhuolu Town is left and refuses to evacuate. To put it more clearly, Guo Ge Lao refuses to leave! ”

"The Tartar soldiers are pressing, why doesn't he want to go? Do you want to fight the Tartars? Ma Qianxue asked curiously.

"Where does he dare to go into battle to kill the enemy, it's just that he can't bear the ancestral family business!" Lu Xiangsheng snorted from his nostrils.

Ma Qianxue's eyes widened and said: "But as soon as the Tartar comes to the 'jade' stone and burns, no matter how reluctant he is, he will be finished!" ”

"Who's to say it isn't!" Lu Xiangsheng sighed, "This official doesn't understand, once he is old, such a simple truth, even Miss Ma can see it so thoroughly, why can't he figure it out!" If it was an ordinary family, the official would have sent troops to forcibly move him out. But Guo Ge Lao has been an official in the court for more than 30 years, and the "door" is born all over the world, and the foundation is very deep, and the official does not dare to make a time, so he has to come here to persuade him, and even today, this is the third time, and he didn't expect to hit the Tartar. The official really didn't expect the Tartars to come so quickly and so fiercely, and this time he brought a total of more than 1,000 people. Although many Tartars were killed, our army suffered heavy casualties. But it seems that Ge Lao still refuses to leave! ”

Everyone was very angry when they heard this, and said in their hearts that Guo Zhicong had also entered the cabinet to worship the prime minister, but they didn't expect that it would be such a selfish' and self-interested person, in order to protect his family property, he dared to disobey the emperor's edict. If Li Dingguo hadn't come in time, Lu Xiangsheng would have almost accompanied him in.

Ma Qianxue immediately said with a cold face: "Since he cares so much about the overall situation, why should the governor care about him!" After a while we have eaten and drunk enough, we will immediately leave, and if he is willing to stay here, then let him go, and the governor will only have to tell the court what is going on. The tartar will come again, and there will be a time for him to cry! ”

Lu Xiangsheng shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Miss Ma doesn't know, Guo Ge Lao is quite prestigious here, if he doesn't leave, most of the people in Zhuolu Town will not leave." The officials could have walked away, but the people were going to suffer. ”

Ma Qianxue was stunned for a moment, and then said distressedly: "What should I do!" Hey, General Li, aren't you resourceful, why don't you help the governor come up with a way? ”

Lu Xiangsheng saw that Ma Qianxue was very unkind to Li Dingguo, and Li Dingguo was not angry, he was stunned at first, and then suddenly said with a smile: "The story of Zhou Yu and Huang Gai, this official saw it in person today!" ”

Ma Qianxue hadn't watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", so she asked, "Lord Governor, what's wrong with Zhou Yu and Huang Gai?" ”

"Don't you hear that there is a folk proverb: Zhou Yu beats Huang Gai, one is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer!" Lu Xiangsheng laughed and said, "General Li, you little yellow cover, what kind of bitter 'meat' plan is the official of the sect?" ”

Ma Qianxue still doesn't know why, but Li Dingguo's face is flushed. But he still thought seriously for a moment, and whispered to Lu Xiangsheng: "The last general does have a secret message from the Holy Lord, and he is about to return to the Xuanfu with the governor. Since Guo Ge Lao is reluctant to leave, Mo Ruo is like this. ”

Lu Xiangsheng first shook his head a few times after hearing this, then thought about it, and finally said with a wry smile: "General Li's plan is really a bitter 'meat' plan. Anyway, reasoning is very inappropriate, but it is indeed the fastest way to solve the problem! ”
