(Strive to conceive, try to dedicate a wonderful war to the brothers, the generals of both sides, fight wits and courage.) Can you think of Lian Zining's plan? There are many hidden mysteries in this chapter...... ）

Before he could finish speaking, Hairi Chagai had already interrupted his words and sneered: "What kind of property is not counted, how much is the thing you brought back worth?" ”

Ha didn't glared at him: "Shut up!" ”

Waving his hand, he gestured for Qinggeltai to continue.

Qinggeltai didn't seem to hear Hairi Chagai's provocation, and continued: "I have interrogated many people, and I have already obtained definite information, five days ago, Yang Xuezhong, the general of Liaobei, ordered all the belongings, strong men, beauties, and all valuable things of the vultures and right guards to be moved to the vultures, and now it has lasted for five days, and it is already entering the end. ”

"In other words, the right guard of the vultures is also like this?" Ha Bu asked with a gloomy face.

"Even worse." Qing Getai said truthfully: "The right guard of the vultures moved earlier. ”

Ha Bu's face became more and more ugly.

For him, it is true that he jumped into the whirlpool of this chaotic battle because he couldn't resist the huge temptation, but how to protect himself is the most important thing. So his original plan was to temporarily refrain from provoking those powerful and concentrated forces - such as Amin, such as the White Lotus Sect. It's not that you can't beat it, but even if you can beat it, what can you do? The losses of the troops were heavy, and the gains outweighed the losses, and Fu Yuwei was not strong enough to start a war with both sides at the same time, so he had to beware of being picked when both sides were defeated.

As a result, there are very few targets to choose from. To be exact, only Yang Xuezhong is left.

He had intended to attack the weaker defenders and right defenders first. First of all, go on a rampage, and catch as much as you can. For the time being, the nobles in the clan who have been suppressed for a long time will be stabilized, and then wait and see what happens, and Xu Tu has a big plan. Unexpectedly, Yang Xuezhong's move disrupted all his plans.

There is a strategic goal in war, and only when a strategic goal is achieved can the next one be carried out, and the strategic goal of his plan to attack the Vulture Guard and the Vulture Right Guard is to get back the book first, and at the same time stabilize the nobles and soldiers. And now that one of these two goals has not been achieved, this is going to be a problem, after all, the soldiers are here to loot and make profits. After entering the city, nothing was caught, and after the news spread, the morale of the army was extremely impetuous and frustrated.

Hairi Chagai laughed and said, "Father Khan, what is there to worry about?" Let's go fight the Vultures! Then Yang Xuezhong put the other two guards of the golden silk women in one place, but it saved our strength, as long as we take down the vultures, wouldn't those things fall into our hands? ”

His suggestion attracted a group of generals to agree, but they couldn't get much of it, they were very unwilling, so the desire to fight was also extraordinarily strong.

He slammed the table. yelled: "Shut up Lao Tzu!" ”

He pointed at Hairi Chagai and scolded: "Hairi Chagai, you brave and unscrupulous fool, have you ever thought that if we attack the Wuzhiwei, what will Amin do, who is less than sixty miles away from us? Will he sit back and watch us defeat Xishenwei? When the time comes, we will suffer from the enemy. I don't even know how to die! You idiot! ”

Hairi Chagai was speechless.

The crowd was silent.

"First send someone to intercept the Ming army's team, catch as much as you can, and then go to the right guard of the vultures to get all the valuable money there. We're here and we're going to see what happens. ”

I couldn't say a word coldly. Go off in a huff.

Ali Zhiwei, black smoke rises in the city. The flames were raging, and buildings were constantly being consumed by flames. Screams, begs for mercy, painful moans, and the laughter of the abusers were endless, and countless Jurchen soldiers rushed in through several large openings in the city wall, venting their anger and desires inside.

Amin stood on the high watchtower of the camp, his face like water.

That's right, Ali Zhiwei took it down, but it wasn't taken down that day. Rather, on the third day after he gave the order for a general attack, on the sixth day when Tashanwei was breached.

Those Ming rout troops supported for as many as three days before they exhausted the last drop of blood, and finally they couldn't resist and were killed in the city.

And the price Amin paid was also extremely heavy, the Han slave soldiers were killed and wounded more than 60,000, if it weren't for the Jurchens' mace and sharp arrows behind to supervise the formation, I am afraid that these Han slave soldiers would have collapsed long ago.

For these Han slave soldiers, no matter how many deaths Amin will not have mercy, just rush to catch the Han people and train them a little. But the problem is, the battle is missed!

Just now, Amin received a secret report from the spies, and this morning, tens of thousands of cavalry of Fuyuwei appeared outside the guard of the vultures.

They finally couldn't help but make a move!

These three days made a once-in-a-lifetime battle fleeting.

Three days ago, the Vulture Guards were panicked, their forces were scattered, and they were not ready for anything, so they could easily take it.

And today, three days later, the Wuzhiwei is already a large number of soldiers, full of materials, everyone has the heart to fight to the death, and more importantly, the Fuyuwei army has arrived, eyeing the side! As long as they were in the day, Amin would not dare to risk attacking the Vultures. Once the enemy is attacked in front and behind, the consequences will be unimaginable. And once Fu Yuwei gets the opportunity, he will definitely not be polite to him.

So Amin didn't know what to do for a while.

If you can't attack, you can't go back like this, and you're very unwilling.

There was a creaking and groaning sound from the thick wooden nails of the watchtower, and the bloody child walked up and said loudly: "Amin, those Ming troops surrendered, basically they were all wounded, and some were disabled, the people below counted them, there were 30,000 in total, what should we do with them?" ”

He still treats Amin so aggressively, and it seems that there is no change, but what he thinks in his heart, only he knows.

A murderous aura flashed in Amin's eyes, and he groaned for a moment with a cold face, and four cold words popped out from between his teeth: "All the pit kills!" ”

"All the pit kills?"

Bloodthirsty and tough like a child, I couldn't help but be startled. I shuddered in my heart, this is 30,000 lives!

"What? Do you want me to say it again? Amin asked with a cold look at him.

"Yes. I'll go down and give orders. ”

I held back the anger in my heart and showed a deferential gesture. Ha ha, ha, go down.

Amin didn't notice the slightest strangeness in him, he looked at Ali Zhiwei who was moaning in pain in the distance, and said loudly: "Pass the order, put out the fire in the city, pull the dead to a remote place outside the city and bury them, and the army will enter the city and camp to rest!" ”

By mistake, because of their fear of the other party, Fu Yuwei and Amin's subordinates did not dare to take action against Wuzhiwei first.

Hence the garrison guard. One stationed in Ali Zhiwei, the two sides gathered for sixty miles, and they actually confronted each other.

For a time, the territory under the jurisdiction of the general of Liaobei actually stopped fighting, and the White Lotus Sect, the Ming Army, the Jurchens, and the Fuyuwei formed a short-term balance between the forces of the Quartet.

It's just that this balance is going to be broken eventually.

Just see who stirs up the storm.

―――――――― Dividing Line――――――――

On April 18, the 53rd year of Zhengde, the army of Wu Yi arrived at Orimi Station.

Local officials had already received an order from Lian Zining to requisition more than 1,000 ships. Transporting large armies across the river. However, the lack of water power of Wu Yi's army was still exposed, and although the local officials had tried their best, and even requisitioned all the boats in the upper and lower 500 miles of the river, it was still not enough.

The four infantry corps, each with two guards, totaled 13,600 men. The total number of guards in each of the five cavalry corps was 12,000, of which the fifth army and the sixth army were 11,200 men, and the more than 10,000 cavalry of the personal guard battalion plus one artillery unit for 1,000 households. A total of nearly 130,000 troops took two days to cross the Songjiang River. In the early morning of the 20th, the Songhua River was finally crossed.

After crossing the river. Wu Yi's army advanced twenty miles and camped in Partridge Town.

The town is located by the river. To the north is a large area of dense forest and deep mountains, which is rich in a variety of rare birds, hence the name. In these years, the world is peaceful, it is a prosperous and prosperous era, those princes and nobles, children of rich families, lackeys and birds do not know how many. The birds abundant here are either rare or birds of prey, and even Haidongqing is produced, so many merchants from Kannai come here every year to buy. This town is also prosperous because of this, the people in the town are living on it, although this rare bird is not so easy to catch, but as long as you catch one, it is enough for the old snacks at home for three or four years.

This transaction is also a sure win.

Therefore, this town is very prosperous, with thousands of households, within a radius of two or three miles, just like a small city.

It's just that such a rich place naturally can't escape the sack of the White Lotus Sect.

After the sack, a scorched earth.

For these landlubbers, crossing the river by boat is a manual work, and after crossing the river, it is a rapid march of dozens of miles, and the body is also tired. As for errands such as patrolling the camp, guarding posts, and scouting and scouting, he naturally didn't have to worry about it, and his own generals arranged it.

At this moment, Lian Zining and his party were surrounded by dozens of guards, and they were walking among the ruins of the broken wall by themselves.

There were obvious signs of burning, the roof was basically burned out, only half of the broken adobe walls and pitch-black beams remained, and there were a large number of black and gray embers on the ground, among which the white bones were unknown. It's walking down the street, and if you're not careful, you can kick a skull or some other part of the bone.

I really don't know how many people died here.

There are ruins everywhere.

The cruelty of war can only be truly experienced when you are in it.

Although Cui Wanrong's life experience is very hard, the character she has developed is also ruthless and decisive, but she has never seen such a big scene. Along the way, her face was already extremely ugly. Passing by a large mansion, through the big hole in the house, you can see that there are layers of corpses piled up inside, I am afraid that there are as many as thirty or fifty corpses, these corpses are curled up, like a giant egg, the description is extremely miserable, extremely weird.

Cui Wanrong finally couldn't hold back anymore, vomited, and ran to the side to retch.

King Liang also really has feelings for her, and if he is another prince, he is afraid that he feels that this woman has lost his own person and is so unruly, he must be bored in his heart, but he stepped forward and patted his back lightly and comforted him carefully.

"This man is a lover, and it's no wonder that his women are willing to die for it."

Lian Zining glanced at King Liang. He walked over to the edge of the hole and muttered for a moment, saying, "These people are here to rush in." Then the door was locked from the outside and set on fire. ”

He said this. Cui Wanrong vomited again. On the contrary, it was Ye Nai who followed him to fight in the north and south, and he was used to killing, so he really didn't take this scene to heart.

King Liang frowned: "How do you know?" ”

Lian Zining said lightly: "In the past, when I led a large army to conquer the north, I also did this to the Jurchens, and some of them were worse than this. ”

King Liang couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

After a long while, he foiled his teeth and said fiercely: "That's a national war, naturally it's all about doing everything, these White Lotus Sects." It's also the people of the Ming Dynasty, they are all the people of the Han family, but they are so brutal and slaughtered. Kill it! ”

Lian Zining nodded silently.

He has come all the way, in fact, he has long been angry in his heart.

For the survival of a certain ethnic group, for the growth of a certain nation, or for the selfish desires of certain people, there is nothing wrong with war. But war should be a means to acquire land, population, resources, not to be the destroyer of these things. The army crossed, and the people were killed. The city burned, and all wealth was lost, so what is the point of fighting this war? What's the point?

When the people are dead, who will you rule?

It's a very simple truth. But there are always some people who can't figure it out.

Not everyone thinks like Lian Zining, such as Zhang Xianzhong. Zhang Xianzhong slaughtered Sichuan, killing only tens of thousands of people from the millions or so of Sichuan when he entered Sichuan. There are only a few dozen families left in Chengdu. Why do you say such killings?

With Lian Zining's careful and rational thinking. This kind of killing is simply not understood.

And right now, it is obvious that the White Lotus Sect is also such a thing.

For such opponents. Lian Zining not only hated, but also despised.

Look down on them at all. This is a bunch of pure destroyers, parasites that humans should not exist, ignorant but scumbags who have a certain power, this kind of people, living is a waste.

To put it bluntly, this is a group of opponents who can't be on the stage but have to pay attention to it, Lian Zining feels that it is really a very dishonorable thing to be an enemy of this kind of person, but he has to fight.

If Xu Hongru knew that he was such a white lotus saint king in Lian Zining's eyes, he was afraid that he would die of anger.

Everyone continued to walk forward, this town is not small, from south to north, it will take a long time.

It's already a dead city, but that's not a good idea, because there are still inhabitants here.

The White Lotus Sect can be said to come and go in a hurry, because they will grab it and leave, and they will not stay in a certain place for too long. Before they came, many of the people of Partridge Town had taken refuge in the nearby mountains and forests, and when the White Lotus Sect retreated, they returned to their hometown, which had become scorched earth.

Even though it's scorched earth, it's also home! And if the house is tidied up and put in order, it may not be impossible to continue to live.

There are still about 100 families left in the entire Partridge Town, with a population of three or four hundred. When the army of Wu Yi arrived, these people burst into tears of excitement, they had long heard of the prestige of Wu Yi Army, and finally looked forward to the army. Just now, a group of people knelt down to see Xie En under the leadership of a few village elders, and took out what little food they had to work for the army. Lian Zining also came out to meet them, naturally he didn't ask for their things, but allocated some food for them, and these people wept and kowtowed outside the camp before leaving.

At this time, I saw Lian Zining and his party, and some people kowtowed on the side of the road from time to time, and they didn't dare to stand up until they passed.

When they reached the west side of the town, about two miles from the camp, they invited a large open space. The ruins of that piece of the wall were demolished, and a vast ground with a radius of about fifty or sixty zhang was cleared, and a large number of stones, giant trees, green bricks, and cement and other materials were piled up on one side. About a thousand coolie laborers were busy in the open field, doing this and that under the command of a few craftsmen, and it seemed as if a building was going to be built here, and it was quite majestic and gorgeous.

Around this vacant land, many houses have been demolished, ashes have been cleared, and many prototypes of barracks have been formed on the basis of the original foundation.

King Liang couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Chengbi, what is this building?" ”

"Naturally, it is for His Highness to build a palace! His Royal Highness is an angel of Qincha, and he is also the respect of the prince who listens to the government. If there is no palace, wouldn't it be a loss of identity? ”

Lian Zining smiled slightly. He pointed to the barracks around him and said, "As for these barracks, they are for the soldiers of the forbidden army under the command of His Highness. ”

"Build a palace for this king?"

King Liang's brows immediately furrowed.

He immediately sensed that something was wrong.

Get along these days. He also has a lot of understanding of Lian Zining, knowing that although Lian Zining is also respectful to him on the surface, he is not rude, but in fact, this bold guy does not take the imperial authority in his eyes at all. He treated himself with neither contempt nor respect, but as if he were a partner—nothing more. Getting along like this, it's quite a little light as water.

You didn't even see any respect for Zining who treated me so plainly in the past. Why are you so respectful and courteous when you come here? Even built a palace?

This is not Lian Zining's actions, King Liang knows that he will never do useless work, and every action he makes, no matter how small it is, has its intentions.

He's not like a guy who wastes his physical strength and money for the sake of pomp. Besides, what does it mean to build a palace here?

Wait a minute. Forbidden Army? Forbidden troops are going to be stationed here?

King Liang suddenly made a wit, and his body was cold, he was willing to release my forbidden army soldiers? He's not afraid of leaks? What is his intention?

It turned out that since the soldiers of the forbidden army entered the Zhenyuan Mansion, they were welcomed into the post house. Then Lian Zining asked Shi Dazhu to surround the post house, and the people inside were not allowed to enter but not leave. Only His Royal Highness King Liang and a few of his henchmen can come out, and the rest of the people. Stay honest!

Lian Zining did this, naturally because he was afraid that someone would be angry. Sneak back to the capital to ventilate the news. Although King Liang has made an agreement with him, these soldiers are forbidden troops and not King Liang's private army, they are loyal to the royal family, Emperor Zhengde, not King Liang, so King Liang can't control it. Those soldiers of the forbidden army were naturally very dissatisfied, but there was the coercion of the army outside, and the pressure of King Liang inside, and they were also in vain. Later, King Liang simply took Cui Wanrong and them to move out, and even the faces of those forbidden soldiers were gone.

Speaking of which, it's been a few days since we've met.

Lian Zining was unusual, but he wanted to release those forbidden troops.

"Could it be that he is going to be against me?" King Liang looked at Lian Zining, his eyes shrank slightly.

"Your Highness has misunderstood."

Lian Zining knew that he was thinking about something wrong when he saw his expression, and smiled slightly: "Your Highness, do you still remember what the lower official said to you on the parade platform that day?" ”

"Naturally, I remember." Hearing Lian Zining say this, King Liang's heart is wide, people are swords, I am fish and meat, Lian Zining really wants to kill himself, with his decisive nature, he doesn't need to be so pretentious. It seems that he really misunderstood.

He asked, "What did Wu Yibo say that day have to do with the construction of this palace?" ”

"It's a big deal." Lian Zining leaned into King Liang's ear and whispered a few words.

King Liang's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

Lian Zining's eyes stared at him tightly, and after a long time, King Liang finally nodded, and said in a difficult voice: "Okay, Uncle Wu Yi, this king will believe you this time!" ”

"Okay, Your Highness is really bold, if you ascend the throne as the emperor, it will really be the blessing of all the people of my Ming Dynasty!" Lian Zining laughed.

He turned around and commanded loudly: "Shi Dazhu, pass the order, and Shi Kai immediately drive the Jurchen slave soldiers to build a large camp, and it will be in a ring shape to wrap the entire Partridge Town." In addition, all the people in Partridge Town moved to the land of Jiangdong and assigned them to the subordinates of the Orimi Station, and told the officials of the Orimi Station to divide the land and grain with them. ”

"Yes, sir!" Shi Dazhu hugged his fist and went down to execute.

After walking around the town for a while, Lian Zining smiled and said, "Your Highness, the time to come out is not short, why don't you go back and rest first?" ”

Since King Liang heard Lian Zining's words, he has always looked heavy and worried, just nodded, but did not answer.

When I returned to the camp, it was about nine o'clock in the morning, and the non-commissioned officers had already gotten up one after another and began to practice under the leadership of the officer.

Wu Yijun's military rules are strict, and you can't slack off in training for a day, even if you are on the march, as long as the conditions permit, you must also practice. (To be continued.) )
