Chapter 164: How Much Is Conscience Worth?

~~~~~~~

The field of vision was dark, and he couldn't see the specific state of the two parts clearly, but according to the position of the two parts at this time, Li Yuanqing could guess the approximate situation. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After discovering the main force of the Later Jin, the two divisions should have wanted to converge and break through to the west, but the reaction of the Later Jin army was resolute and prevented the movement of the two divisions.

Zhang Pan and Chen Zhong should have been killed from the east coast of southern Liaoning, in this state, there is no rescue to the east, only to the west, it is possible to encounter Li Yuanqing's immortal camp.

Both of them are generals, and they have no problem in terms of strategic vision, but a day and a night have passed, and neither of them has succeeded, which can only show that the attitude of the Houjin Army is very tough and does not want to let the two go.

This is also inevitable.

The existence of the three departments in southern Liaoning simply makes these big and small masters with red flags and blue flags smeared with chili water on their buttocks, how can they sit steadily?

How could they let go of such an opportunity?

Presumably, it won't be long before Yue Tuo and Mang Gurtai will also come in person.

At around half past nine, the Changsheng camp had just set up camp, and before he had time to rest, a heavy rain suddenly fell in the sky.

Late July and early August are the storm seasons by the sea, and although this year is dry, the location and climate of southern Liaoning are very different from those inland.

With such a violent wind and rain, the temperature could drop by more than ten degrees at once, and the bonfires in the camps of the various departments were also extinguished by the heavy rain.

Li Yuanqing had no choice but to temporarily retreat to the camp tent to take shelter from the rain.

For a time, there was nothing but wind and rain in the whole world.

Li Yuanqing also took advantage of this opportunity to convene a small meeting of the officers.

In such a state at this time, the Houjin army can keep people, but it is difficult to attack, plus the defenders in Fuzhou City, they have a maximum of 10 Niu Lu's troops, and attack the well-defended Ming army camp with cavalry, unless the Ming army itself makes a major mistake, otherwise, it is a very difficult thing.

As long as the Ming army held on, they didn't have much to do.

But once the Ming army wants to break through, it is like a herd of horses on the grassland, targeted by hungry wolves, and will always show flaws and give them a chance.

The three Ming armies in southern Liaoning, with almost no cavalry, could only rely on 11 roads to walk, and this time, they were firmly stuck under the city of Fuzhou.

And once the main force of the red flag and the blue flag arrives, it will ......

"General, we must get in touch with Chen Zhong and Zhang Pan as soon as possible. Tonight's heavy rain is a great opportunity. In the middle of the night, the ground is muddy and slippery, and the action of the Houjin cavalry will inevitably be affected, and our three divisions can directly break through to the temporary camp by the sea. Duan Xiliang said a little anxiously.

Xu Heizi shook his head, "You can't be in such a hurry." Our sons have just been on the road for a day, and it is the time of exhaustion, and it would be unwise to break through tonight. In addition, mud has an impact on Houjin, and it has a greater impact on us. Relying on the camp, we still have room to defend. If they were caught up by the Houjin cavalry in the wilderness, the consequences would be unimaginable. ”

"What then? Can't you just sit back and wait here? Duan Xiliang was very anxious, and the green tendons on his forehead rose.

Shunzi said: "General, let's get in touch with Chen Zhong and Zhang Pan first, and find out their state at this time first, and then it's not too late to make a decision." After all, we are here to save people. ”

Li Yuanqing nodded, and said to Huang Guoshan: "Guoshan, you immediately send someone to contact Chen Zhongbu, Zhang Pan's side, try as much as possible, if it doesn't work, don't mess around." ”

"Yes." Huang Guoshan hurriedly left.

Li Yuanqing glanced at the officers, "What are you panicking about?" Is Tartar so terrible? Now there are a lot of us. Are you panicking? Now, go back and guard the camps in all places, so that the sons and daughters can rest well. Wait for orders at any time. ”

"Yes."

The officers left, and Li Yuanqing rubbed his temples tiredly.

This kind of 'night pot' thing is troublesome after all, even if Li Yuanqing has absolute control over the Changsheng Camp, it is inevitable that there will be disagreements.

But at this time, it also gave Li Yuanqing a new understanding.

Just like when the Red Army climbed snowy mountains and crossed meadows.

A truly iron-blooded army that has not experienced the extreme cruel environment will never be able to grow into a true iron-blooded lion.

The Changsheng Camp seems to be thriving at this time, but at the root, the ingredients are a little too mixed.

This most brutal wave is often a good way to wash away the sand.

Tonight's rain helped a lot, and Chen Zhong quickly sent back the news, his headquarters was temporarily unharmed, and there were more than 1,900 available troops, more than 800 auxiliary soldiers, the number was close to 3,000, and the grain and grass were enough to support a month.

This made Li Yuanqing breathe a sigh of relief.

On the side of the Changsheng Battalion, there are more than 2,000 soldiers, more than 1,000 auxiliary soldiers, and grain and grass can support more than 20 days.

Chen Zhong's meaning is also to break through as soon as possible, and at the worst of all, he also wants to be with Li Yuanqing, which is also the greatest wish of his sons and daughters at this time.

Li Yuanqing understood what Chen Zhong meant, and the two have come together until now, almost never separated.

Chen Zhong's subordinates actually regarded Li Yuanqing as the main general, and to some extent, Li Yuanqing was their spiritual leader, especially in this most difficult time.

At this time, Chen Zhongbu was located in a low-lying area, and the heavy rain did not know when it would stop, and once the rain continued, Chen Zhongbu's camp would inevitably suffer.

This should have been something that Chen Zhong did not expect when he set up camp.

He should have only taken into account the ease of access to water in the camp, but did not take into account the bad weather.

And once the water backs up, there is no need for the Houjin army to fight at all, and their camp is estimated to collapse first.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Yuanqing agreed to Chen Zhong's request, but not now, he had to wait a little longer.

With such rain, although the Houjin army did not make a big move, Li Yuanqing's Changsheng battalion rushed over, and they must have been firmly staring at this side.

If the fish really die and the net is broken, it is Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong who suffer more.

On Zhang Pan's side, he couldn't get in touch, such a rain, and so far apart, and he had to avoid the ears and eyes of the Houjin army, which was too difficult.

Li Yuanqing had to give up this idea for the time being.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and it seemed to pour directly from the sky, and the raging wind made it feel a lot colder all at once.

Li Yuanqing wore an oilcloth and came to the front of the formation, carefully probing the surrounding situation.

Chen Zhongbu's camp is about 2 miles away from the Changsheng camp, and the Chen Zhongbu camp is very tightly built, with simple fences and ditches outside, while the Changsheng camp, due to the short time, is only temporarily camped, and there are no such complete protective measures.

But the Changsheng camp is a high slope terrain, not far from the north, is a small river, at this time such a heavy rain, the river flooded, invisibly upgraded to a natural barrier, after the Jin army wanted to fight, there was only the east side, and there was Chen Zhong's block.

If the two divisions can meet smoothly, the advantages of both sides will be added together, and they will definitely be able to strengthen their own defense more effectively.

It was 11 o'clock, and the rain was getting lighter, but the wind was raging, and it didn't seem to stop.

In the Houjin camp, there were no new torches, Li Yuanqing immediately ordered Duan Xiliang to gather 4 general pikemen to cover in front, and the two bird soldiers of Shunzi and Yang Xiaochuan responded to protect Chen Zhong's troops and converge on the Gaopo camp of the Changsheng camp.

Chen Zhong's side reacted quickly, and the soldiers removed the fence on the west side, filled in the trench, and began to move towards the Changsheng camp in an orderly manner.

Houjin quickly discovered Chen Zhongbu's movements, but the horses were not very obedient in this rain, and they did not dare to come forward rashly without the support of war horses.

Mainly due to night blindness, these post-golden tartars, mainly meat-eating, lack a large number of microbial elements, in such a rainy night battle, let alone their specialty.

From the time of the child to the early morning, Chen Zhong's troops rushed to the high slope of the Changsheng camp one after another, and the two sides met victoriously.

However, neither Li Yuanqing nor Chen Zhong dared to slack off, and they did not have time to greet each other, so they immediately ordered the soldiers to continue to build fortifications, dig trenches, build fences, and use everything that could be used.

Seeing that everything was on the right track, Chen Zhong had time to talk to Li Yuanqing.

He let out a long breath and lowered his head in annoyance, "Yuanqing, brother, brother can't stand you." You, why are you here? ”

Li Yuanqing smiled and shook Chen Zhong's big hand heavily, "Big brother, you and I are brothers, brothers." What is past is gone. If I am in trouble one day, I believe that you will come to my rescue, big brother. ”

"Yuanqing ......"

Chen Zhong's tears were about to flow out, but he was a down-to-earth man, and he knew Li Yuanqing's temperament better, knowing that Li Yuanqing was not angry with him, so he hurriedly wiped a handful of tears and said hurriedly: "Yuanqing, in such a situation, the main force of Houjin should be coming soon." We must not stay here for long. Rushing to the sea as soon as possible is the way to survive. ”

Li Yuanqing nodded heavily, how could he not know about this?

However, although he has joined Chen Zhong, there is still a plate over there. The two of them can't leave the plate behind and run away like this.

If this is done, even if Zhang Pan is besieged and killed by the Houjin army later, and there is no proof of his death, the conscience of the two of them will probably be uneasy forever.

Although conscience is worthless, and Zhang Pan is indeed not authentic, but at this time, Li Yuanqing does not want to leave him.

After all, he was a brother who crawled out of the trenches.

And this kind of rain will definitely slow down the pace of Yue Tuo and Mang Gurtai's main forces, and there may not be much time, but it is the last chance for Li Yuanqing's three divisions.

"Big brother, don't be in a hurry about this matter, eat first, and talk about it after eating." Li Yuanqing avoided this topic and immediately ordered the firefighters to have dinner.

The rain still shows no signs of stopping, but it is much better than last night, and Chen Zhong has a lot of wood here, and it is not difficult to light a bonfire with the help of tents.

In such weather, people are prone to colds, and drinking hot water is especially important.

Chen Zhong already knew Li Yuanqing very well, Li Yuanqing didn't say anything, he didn't ask much, he knew that his brother would never harm him.

As the bonfire was lit, the camp on the high slope gradually warmed up and began to come to life, and likewise, it also attracted the attention of Zhang Pan not far away.

Today, Zhang Pan got up early in the morning, how could he sleep in such a predicament?

As the sky gradually brightened, he also saw that Chen Zhongbu had already left camp and went to the Ming army's position on the hillside not far away.

At this time, in southern Liaoning, there were only three.

Zhang Pan didn't have to think about it, he could know that this must be Li Yuanqing.

In fact, the reason why Chen Zhong was invited to fight Fuzhou was that Zhang Pan was also holding his breath, and he also wanted to prove himself, especially let Li Yuanqing see that he Zhang Pan was the mainstay of southern Liaoning and the leader of the Dongjiang Army in southern Liaoning.

It's a pity that the reality gave him a slap in the face, this time, it is likely that he will not only have to put himself on the hook, Chen Zhong and Li Yuanqing, but also be dragged into the bottomless abyss by him.

The entire structure of the Dongjiang Army in southern Liaoning is likely to collapse completely.

"Let's go. You'd better go quickly. What are you doing here? Do you want to save Lao Tzu? ”

"Li Yuanqing, aren't you quite good on weekdays? Why are you still stupid at this time? ”

"Can the save me? Do you really think you're a god? ”

Seeing that Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong had no intention of leaving, and even, on the Gaopo camp, it seemed that there was going to be an army to fight, Zhang Pan couldn't help but scold in a low voice, and soon, he began to curse loudly, but tears couldn't help but pour out......
