Chapter 580: The First Battle of Jinan

Baoding Mansion and Zhending Mansion are side by side, it is one of the two important towns in the south of Jinan, because the Ming Dynasty is mainly to prevent the enemy from the north, so most of the heavy troops are arranged in the area of the north of Jinan, even if the robbers and thieves in the south of the country are rampant, the government is also blind most of the time. This time, the top suddenly ordered people to lead troops to arrest the thieves, and the officials up and down the Baoding Mansion were all startled. However, when the three or four thousand soldiers and horses camped outside the city, the three leading generals swaggered into the city, and then they couldn't leave in the Tianxiang Garden.

Although there are disturbances from time to time, they are all trivial things, but the three noble sons are drinking in the Tianxiang Garden to have fun and recruit prostitutes to feast, which is becoming more and more smoky, and the character of the real county Luo Wenhui directly handed a fold to Beijing, but the result is like a mud cow into the sea There is no follow-up, and the other officials plucked the prefect to urge the army, and as a result, those soldiers and horses dangled to a nearby mountain for a while, and then they swaggered back, so angry that all the officials in Baoding Mansion were upside down, simply ignored these old soldiers, and even Xu Xun, who recommended the three people, was secretly scolded half to death by them.

At this moment, on the third floor of Tianxiangyuan, the most famous in the downtown area of Baoding Mansion, the drunken Qi Jiliang casually sent a few girls who accompanied the wine down, took the towel handed by the guard on the side and put it on his face, and then a spirit woke up. Most of his drunkenness was originally pretended, but when he shook his head, he slapped Zhang Zongshuo and Xu Yanche's heads one by one, and when he saw that both of them were screaming, he snorted coldly angrily: "Don't pretend, go down!" ”

"When will this day come to an end?" Zhang Zongshu complained as soon as he sat up. Then he grabbed his throat and vomited into a copper basin that had been put down on the side for a while, and after spitting out most of the filth, he took the sour soup sent by him and drank it in one go, and finally bared his teeth and said, "I knew that I would die and would not agree to come on this trip!" ”

"You know now, it's late!"

Xu Yanche vomited in the dark, and it was easy for him to feel more comfortable, and he saw that Qi Jiliang was already there with chopsticks and vegetables. He couldn't help but widen his eyes; "Xiao Qi, when did you practice such a good amount of wine?"

"Eat a trench and grow a wisdom, who has let you all stay for several days, and none of you have grown yet!" Qi Jiliang smiled, pointed to a soft leather bag in his hand, and said triumphantly, "Wouldn't it be troublesome to drink and vomit again, it's better for me." Drink here, and all of them go here, and the stomach is only 12/12......"

"Damn, you guy has a good way and doesn't know how to take us!"

Zhang Zongshu slapped the table angrily, and then exchanged glances with Xu Yanche, and the two of them had to step forward and twist Qi Ji for a while. When the three of them sat down again, Zhang Zongshu sighed and said: "It looks like a gentle township, but I know that these are related to those ringing horse thieves in the mountains, and his mother has to pay attention to whether they will be poisoned even when they drink, let alone have a happy life." It's hard to watch. This is really a murderous flower! ”

"You kid just thinks about it. Even if this is a good nest, do you know how many eyeliners you have with your eldest brother and younger brother? ”

Xu Yanche choked Zhang Zong's words speechlessly, and then he suddenly thought about the coquettish nature of the top Cui Niang, and he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. I thought it was a fake public and private good and happy life, but since I was tempted by people, I almost even vomited out important words, if it wasn't for the fact that a personal entourage outside suddenly broke in and used some emergency military information to fool around, he really suffered, and then he used Cui Niang to spoil his interest, but he recruited two charming and lovely girls, and he never dared to touch half of the woman's fingers again. ..., not to mention Qi Jiliang, who has not yet married a wife. The eldest princess Renhe promised to let her only son out. One of the major conditions is that he is never allowed to mess with those dusty women, so he has drunk and played with him, but he doesn't want to sleep with him - his princess and wife directly sent two beautiful girls to accompany him, which also made Zhang Zongshu and Xu Yanche envious. The three of you looked at me for a while, and finally sighed in unison.

If they continue like this, they will have to be driven crazy! Blowing, playing, singing, touring the lake and enjoying the mountains have all kinds of pastimes, this kind of entertainment that was not boring in the past. But after being practiced by Xu Xun for several years, now that the old skills are being repeated, they feel that they have no fun at all. Could it be that they have been abused and are used to it, and they can't even live a happy life? In other words, the days when the power was really held in the hands were far better than the days when people were respected in front of them and spurned behind them!

Just when the three of them were lying on the table almost bored, they only heard a gentle knock on the door outside, and then a woman's delicate voice followed: "Three masters, can the little girl play the pipa?" The little woman's ten-sided ambush is famous in the entire Baoding Mansion, and it is Yutang Chun, who became famous in the first game of her debut in the capital, can't catch up. ”

Xu Yanche was about to scold in annoyance, but his hand was pressed heavily, and when he saw that it was Zhang Zongshuo who sat up straight all of a sudden, he suddenly remembered the plan he had set before, and he was suddenly shocked. Aren't these words a code that was set when I left? He exchanged glances with Qi Jiliang, and when he heard Zhang Zongsay open his mouth and come in, the eyes of the two of them, which were still clear and bright just now, suddenly became blurry and cloudy.

"Come in!"

In response to the sound was a charming woman holding a pipa and wearing a pink cross-shirt, Zhang Zongshu only glanced at it, and vaguely recognized that this was one of the girls in Tianxiangyuan, who had served him wine. As for the first fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, it was obvious that she was a first-class maid. Just as he was secretly thinking about what message he was going to deliver, the door behind him had been closed with his entourage, and as soon as the pipa girl sat down, she stretched out her finger and plucked it on the string, and suddenly there was a rapid sound. And the next moment, the girl dressed as a little maid came up from behind her and said to Zhang Zong that the three of them had saluted.

"Master Hou has a life." Seeing that the three people who were still listening to the pipa in a drunken and hazy way just now, they jumped up all of a sudden, and although the little girl was prepared, she was still taken aback. After a pause, he said with a smile, "Master Hou has a fate, please ask the three sons to go out of the city tomorrow and go to the wolf's tooth show, one of the eight scenic spots in Baoding, to enjoy the scenery of the mountains and rivers, and you can bring more than 100 elites with you." ”

Wolf Mountain Show!

Although they have been eating, drinking, and having fun in Baoding Mansion for several days, the three of them have already studied the nearby topographic map, how could they not know the famous Langya Mountain nearby? Even if he hadn't heard of any mountain bandits and horse thieves there, Xu Xun specially asked people to bring a message to them. Undoubtedly the bait should be placed there. For a moment, the three of them glanced at each other, and they didn't pay attention to the rapid and sometimes slow sound of the pipa at that time, and all they thought of was the thrilling trip of tomorrow.

Therefore, when the pipa girl finished playing the song and withdrew with the little girl, Xu Yanche couldn't help but take a deep breath and asked, "How could Master Hou let such a little girl pass the word, will there be a fraud?" "I saw that the other two were all looking at themselves like idiots. He remembered that the previous code had been correct, and he couldn't help coughing dryly, "Even if she is true, but such a big thing, if she leaks the news, it is amazing, at least someone has to be sent to watch ......"

After he said this, seeing that Qi Jiliang and Xu Yanche were both smiling, he could only sit down angrily, but he didn't notice that his relatives had slipped out. After a while, the family came back. When he got closer, he said courteously: "General Xu, the humble post has been sent to your house according to your orders. They will not be allowed to leave your house without your command. Seeing that Qi Jiliang and Zhang Zongyan were all looking at him with strange eyes, Xu Yanche asked angrily for a while: "When have I ever said such a thing?" ”

However, under his annoyed gaze, the guard just bent over with a smile: "Although the lord didn't give it an explicit order, what I said just now should be like this." Master Hou asked us to follow the three generals, just to take care of everything in advance. ”

Knowing that he couldn't get rid of this burden now, Xu Yanche suddenly became more annoyed and annoyed. When I thought of that little girl, I didn't know where it came from. Where did he dare to touch it, and for a while he hated himself for having nothing to do. Therefore, when it came time to summon someone to accompany him in the evening, he simply drunk himself so drunk that he didn't even know how to get back to the house. When he woke up early the next morning, he was relieved to find himself lying on the bed on all fours.

"General Xu is awake?"

Xu Yanche hit a spirit. Then a carp jumped up from the bed, and his head almost hit the top of the bed, and then he saw clearly that he had come up with a copper basin and a soft towel. It turned out to be the little girl from yesterday. Without waiting for him to carefully inquire about the other party's origin, she said with a smile: "The humble position is a person from the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town stationed in Baoding Mansion, and he eats the general flag. ”

Such a little girl turned out to be a person from Jinyiwei!

Xu Yanche felt a little awkward when he heard that humiliation just now, but at this moment, he didn't have the slightest hint of provocative thoughts. Everyone knows that Jinyiwei and Xu Xun's confinement are almost the same, before Qiu Ju's godson was sent to the drum room because he provoked Ye Guang, life is better than death, and Qiu Ju, a once famous Daju, was sent to Beijing to Nanjing to serve as a garrison eunuch, which is just like a hairdress, unless he was kicked in the head by a donkey, he went to provoke this little girl who claimed to be from Jinyiwei!

No matter how Xu Yanche and the little girl get along, all in all, when he freshened up and put on that swaggering outfit and went downstairs early in the morning, although he still looked like the beautiful boy in brocade, many people looked at him sideways because of the blue and black circles of his eyes and the blue and black of his face, and the pipa girl and the little girl who followed behind attracted countless eyes. And when he heard Qi Jiliang lightly bump Zhang Zong with his elbow and say that he slept with him with a smile, he glanced at the two of them angrily.

When he went out, he snorted coldly in the lowest voice beside Zhang Zongshu and Qi Jiliang: "That little girl is a person from Fusi in Beizhen, eating the general flag, and the pipa girl is the dark line of Jinyiwei, if you want to be interested, you can also try it?" ”

"Thank you! It's you who provoked Mr. Xu, don't piggyback on us! Qi Jiliang sneered and stabbed, and immediately left the people and went to get on the horse. And Zhang Zong said that he remembered his two powerful brothers-in-law, so he couldn't help but pat Xu Yanche's shoulder and whispered: "Xiao Xu, although your daughter-in-law is virtuous. You don't care if you take two more after this battle, but you have to take it easy. If it's really Jinyiwei's person, if you don't want to be responsible after you get your hands dirty, don't even think about it! ”

Seeing that Zhang Zong slipped away faster than Qi Jiliang when he said this, Xu Yanche was stunned for a moment and then suddenly roared angrily: "You two bastards! ”

Since last night, the officials in the city have known that this line of old soldiers is going to the nearby mountains to enjoy the fun. Thinking that the area around this city is not a place infested by horse thieves, officials from the prefect to the prefect and so on didn't pay attention to it, and they didn't even bother to sigh. And when this group of people rushed out of the city. No one noticed that a few idlers who looked like they were busy and followed, until they were sure that the group was indeed on the official road to Langya Mountain just like the news from Tianxiangyuan, and there were really more than 100 people, so they quietly retreated. ..., Langya Mountain is in the west of Yizhou and Baoding Mansion, ten miles away from both places, although it is one of the ten views of Yan Kingdom as early as the Warring States Period, but because the mountain is steep and steep, it is not a good place for dignitaries to enjoy the scenery. What's more, whether it is the nearby Poor Dushan Mountain or Matou Village, there have been mountain bandits in the past. Only Zhang Zong said that the three of them were under the banner of suppressing bandits, and the gongs and drums were beating loudly, and there were no small thieves who stood in the way along the way. In the evening, the group found a place that had been set up in advance in the capital and set up camp, and the three noble sons who were at ease immediately got together.

Zhang Zong said that as the head of the company, he obviously lacked confidence: "It's going to be fine......

"It's okay...... Master Hou won't let us come to death. Qi Jiliang said such a sentence very firmly, and immediately cheered up the two of them, "Besides, the people brought out today." They are all the most elite in the young army, and they have one martial arts competition, and they have not won against them when they practice with the twelve regiments and battalions! ”

"The question is where did Jiang Bin's guy go with those elites of the Broken Guard!" Xu Yanche asked in a low voice, and then added, "Also, Xiao Zhang's eldest brother doesn't have a shadow, I really don't have a bottom in my heart......"

The Buddha was the two bottomless words that set him off, and he suddenly only heard a clear wolf howl. For a while, when he went to the northwest with Qi Jiliang, he encountered wolves in the area of Taihang Mountain, and his face suddenly changed greatly. However, Zhang Zongshuo listened carefully for a while. Then he shook his head: "It shouldn't be a wolf, it's someone learning how to howl a wolf and play a code, didn't you listen to this one voice, and it took a long time for another wolf to respond?" Pass the order down and be vigilant! ”

Seeing Xu Yanche and Qi Jiliang looking at him in surprise, Zhang Zongshu shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's not strange, I have followed those generals of Datong to the grassland several times. I have encountered wolves more often. Once born and twice cooked, plus in the Datong border army, there are many people who can learn wolf howl. The more I listened, the difference I heard. Wolves mostly live in packs, and this sound shouldn't be right. ”

Although most of the young soldiers did not really have the experience of fighting on the battlefield, the weekday drills were far more real than those of the Beijing camp and the 12th regiment battalion, plus Zhu Houzhao, the emperor, came to the scene from time to time to observe, this time he was rewarded with full silver, and after gnawing dry food for a while, he skillfully left two or three fires, and then began to carry out all kinds of work to cover up and confuse the enemy, of course, not to mention traps. Therefore, when the starry sky came out, more than 200 people hid behind the various natural bunkers that they had spotted after finding this campsite before. And as the place became quieter, the giggles of the women in the camp became even more harsh.

At this time, even Qi Jiliang and Zhang Zong, who had laughed at Xu Yanche at first, couldn't help but be shocked this time, and Qi Qi gave Xu Yanche a thumbs up. Zhang Zongshuo even whispered: "If you can really lure the enemy in, you will be counted as the first merit when the time comes!" ”

"Remember, don't let the two of them go wrong! In case someone bumps into a little bit, be careful that Master Hou picks your skin! ”

Whoosh –

With a piercing sound of arrows, everyone held their breath for a moment. The next moment, the soldiers who had been arranged long ago shouted loudly in the camp: "Enemy attack, enemy attack!" Hurry, protect the adults! ”

"Send someone back to Baoding Mansion for help!"

"No, it's to ask Yizhou County for help!"

This chaotic voice, coupled with the exclamations and cries of the women in the tent, the voices of scolding and the roars, but seven or eight people actually vividly interpreted the scene of chaos in the whole camp. In this chaotic situation, when the sound of horses' hooves was heard from far and near in the night with a very oppressive feeling, only the dark shadows in the camp could be seen in a chaotic mess, and sometimes the screams of stampede could be heard, which was so vivid that people were breathtaking.

Even when the man who led the way rushed into the camp, shouts of all kinds could still be heard in the tent. However, in an instant, the big man who was wielding a long knife suddenly pounced forward, and he fell straight to the ground. And after him, a dozen or so horsemen were all on their backs, although the people behind them hurriedly stopped when they saw this, but after all, the camping valley that Zhang Zongsaid and others chose was a terrain with a large and narrow entrance, and this chaos suddenly affected the people behind. Especially when there was a loud shouting and pulling of strings in the valley, I don't know who shouted.

"Fallen into the hands of these dog officers and soldiers, there are traps in it, we have been ambushed, retreat, retreat!" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to (.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
