Seeing Shangguan Shen Yourong coming to visit him, Ziren hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and said with a smile on his face:

"Ding Shouming, a son in Xiahu Prefecture, has heard of Lord Shen's name for a long time when he was in Jiangnan. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Not to mention, at the beginning of this year, the Haixi Jurchen Yehenala Department repeatedly sent troops to bully and oppress the Hada Department, which was also a Haixi Jurchen, and seized the edict given by the Ming Dynasty. The adults accompanied Gu Yangqian and Li Chengliang to send troops to Ye He. Seeing that our army was strong, Yehebu Beylena Limbulu led his troops to retreat into the city and refused. This city takes the stone as the Guo, and there is a wooden fence inside and outside the city, and it is built on the peak of the mountain, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Our army stormed for two days, the city was full of stones and trees, the soldiers were killed and wounded, and Lord Shen was also wounded, and all the generals thought that the city was impregnable.

Thanks to Lord Shen, regardless of his injuries, he and the soldiers set up two general cannons, fired huge cannons to hit the city, and pierced the building and broke the eaves. There were countless dead in the city, and the city was crying, and the army took advantage of this to cover up and break through the outer city. The lord also wanted to use the ladder cannon to directly attack the place where the chieftains of Yehe were located. Seeing that the situation was not good, Bunarimbulu went out of the city to beg and surrender, and asked for a part of the tribute with Hada. Adults should be the first to take credit. In the next long admiration of prestige, into the day of the Lord to visit, it is a great honor, if the Lord does not dislike to call me Ziren. ”

(Haixi Jurchen, one is the fourth part of Hulun.) The Ming Dynasty was a general term for the Jurchens who lived in the Songhua River and the Ash River valley east of present-day Harbin. In the Ming Dynasty, it was divided into four parts: Ula, Hada, Huifa and Yehe. Between the 27th and 47th years of Wanli, it was successively annexed by Nurhachi, the leader of the Jurchens in Jianzhou)

When Shen Yourong set out to fight against Yehe at the beginning of the year, he was hooked by the Jurchen Tartars with a hook and was almost dragged into the city. Thanks to Zu Chengxun, who was Ningyuan's deputy general at the time, he saved his life, and there was finally no danger. I came here today precisely because Zu Chengxun entrusted Li Runan and Li Rugui brothers to take care of Ziren in the future. In order to repay the favor of the ancestors, I came to visit. Originally, I was quite dissatisfied in my heart, but when I was praised by Ziren like this, I suddenly smiled. Laughing and asking, "Your boy is not a scholar, he is really good at talking." No wonder Zu Chengxun, this old boy, specially asked me to promote you well. I heard that you make good use of firearms, what do you do? Let me hear it. ”

Seeing Shen Yourong asking, Ziren replied respectfully:

"Back to the adult's words, the best of the fire guns are the bird guns and the three-eyed guns, which are not only used but also made by hand. Among the artillery, the bowl mouth gun, the Zhankou gun, the tiger squat cannon, the Furlong machine gun, and the general cannon have all been tried, but there are not many wars in the south of the Yangtze River, so it is not good to talk about making good use of it. I use some firearms, but it's far worse than adults.

In Liujiakou, Jizhen Town, the lord personally led 29 people to the city to fire firearms to resist the leader of the Duoyan Department, Changang, and the soldiers shared the joys and sorrows, and more than 70 Mengnu were killed in this battle. After being wounded by the hidden arrows of the Mongolian Tartars, the adults led their families to attack the enemy's tent at night, rushed into the enemy formation, and slashed desperately. Duoyan Changang was defeated because he could not distinguish the number of our troops in the dark night. It can be seen that Lord Shen is not only good at using firearms, but also brave and strategic, and sighs to himself. ”

Hearing that Ziren would use a lot of firearms, Shen Yourong was still suspicious. But Liujiakou is the battle of his fame, and Ziren mentioned it in this matter, which caused him to be very happy, and he wanted to praise Ziren a few words. At this time, Shen Wansan, a member of Shen Yourong's family outside the door, came to report. said that the Tuban Khan of the Chahar Department would not be collected at night, and led the troops to assemble in the upper reaches of the Daling River, and the governor Gu urgently recruited the adults to go back to discuss the matter. Shen Yourong saw that the army was urgent, and he didn't dare to delay. He Ziren said a few polite words, and then hurriedly turned around and left.

After Ziren sent Shen Yourong away, he felt that this time Mengnu was menacing, and Shen Yourong might transfer himself to fight together. Fortunately, your injuries are not serious, and you should prepare early at this time to avoid being caught off guard. After talking and thinking about it, I felt that Ding Bi and Tang were not lightly injured in the first battle of Shungaizhou, so they decided to leave the two to rest in the inn. The gold and silver on this expedition are soft and inconvenient to carry, and you don't have to worry about others taking care of them, so you can leave your wealth behind.

After making a decision, Ziren immediately called everyone and began to arrange various matters. This time, Ding Bi couldn't fight, so Ziren and Wang ordered him to wear iron armor. The king's order was very strong, and he decided to add another piece of iron armor to cotton armor, and Wang Xuedao and Ding Shoutie still wore cotton armor. There were many damage to the armor of the previous war, so Ding Shoutie hurried to repair it.

Ziren also ordered the Wang brothers to feed all the horses and prepare more forage for the expedition. Li Runan left seven war horses at that time, and Ziren was going to bring another pack horse. On the battlefield, one person and two horses can be achieved, which has been prepared for emergencies. At the same time, you should ask you to go outside to buy more jerky and dry food, and you can have a deal in case of lack of food and grass along the way.

In terms of firearms and blades, since this time it is not a full battle, some are wealthy, and everyone can choose the guy who takes advantage of it. Especially the fire gun, except for a bird gun for Youcai to defend himself, all the rest were brought. A few days ago, the First World War suffered a big loss in Mengnu's bow and arrow and throwing weapons, and Ziren was also going to purchase a few round shields. After a little preparation, Ziren went to Shen Yourong's mansion alone, ready to inquire about the news.

When he arrived at Shen Yourong's mansion, it was his family Ding Shen Wansan who came out to greet him. Shen Wansan had seen Ziren before, and he didn't make a fuss and took him directly into the mansion. At this time, Shen Yourong had just returned home after discussing with the governor, and he was quite curious when he saw Ziren coming. Get up and greet you.

After Ziren saw Shen Yourong, he walked two steps forward and said, "Lord Shen just left in a hurry, and there is a thin gift that I haven't had time to take out. I came to give it to the adults, and I asked the adults to laugh at it. With that, he took out a box of shredded tobacco from his arms, as well as a few pieces of pot, and handed them over.

Shen Wansan thought that Ziren was giving a gift to his adult, but he didn't expect Ziren to take out such a lowly thing, and he was quite dissatisfied in his heart.

After Shen Yourong took the gift, he took a closer look at it and said happily: "Over the years, there have been many people who have given me money and gifts, and no one has ever given these two things. This tobacco is produced in my hometown Honglin Town, I haven't seen it for many years, it must have been brought by your son from Jiangnan, right? This pot is also a specialty of my hometown, but it is not easy to carry, it should be made by you, let me taste the flavor of my hometown. After that, he broke off a few pieces of pot and tasted it.

Seeing Shen Yourong accept the gift, Ziren replied, "As the adults expected, how does this pot taste?" In the next hour, I was fortunate to go to Honglin Town and was fortunate to taste this thing. So do it according to memory, if you don't learn well, please bear with me. ”

Shen Yourong chewed the pot in his mouth, and replied with a smile: "Your kid is quite capable, and this pot does have the flavor of my hometown." However, the rice in Liaodong is not as good as Jiangnan, so it is much worse in taste. Although the price of these two things is not expensive, it depends on your careful preparation. What I have done here today, as long as I can do it, I will not refuse. ”

Seeing that the other party spoke, Ziren did not hide it, and said: "My lord, I don't know what the enemy situation is this time? I would like to ask Ying to go to battle with the adults. Fight against Mengnu and protect my eastern Liaodong border. I hope that adults will be fulfilled! ”
