Chapter 58: Ziren, You've worked hard!
It was not the first time that Ziren had staged the drama of pretending to cry poor in front of Shangguan, Wang Mingjian and others understood the intention of their generals on the spot, and immediately commanded the soldiers to prepare nervously. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Erbastard, you kid don't owe a beating, who allowed you to polish your armor, hurry up and get some mud to paint. And don't be afraid of getting dirty, put more chicken blood on your face. ”
"Sanzhuzi, I asked you to wrap the gauze on your head tightly, how did you wrap yourself into zongzi, someone will help him rewrap it."
"Iron hammer, why don't you even have a gap in that knife, hurry up and change it, it's okay to break it."
……
After making preparations, Ziren deliberately wrapped a few more layers of gauze around his legs, and pretended to limp with crutches to lead the troops to the city gate to greet him.
At this time, Li Rumei and Sun Shoulian led their generals to complete the formation outside the city gate. In order to welcome Hao Jie's arrival, the two selected soldiers who were all sturdy, not to mention that their blades and armor were also polished, reflecting bursts of dazzling light under the sunlight.
Seeing Ziren out of place and staggering with a group of "remnant soldiers", Li Rumei couldn't hide the shocked look on her face, and quickly greeted her and asked in a low voice: "Brother-in-law, where are you singing, let Hao Xun see it, be careful that he treats you for the crime of untidy military appearance." ”
"If you don't know anything about Brother Mei." After Ziren said a word, he pretended to stop mysteriously, adjusted the position of the crutches slightly, and replied softly: "After a series of fierce battles, the soldiers who came to greet him were unharmed, and all the armor was complete, don't say that it is Hao Xun, even if General Li is here, do you think he will believe it?" ”
Ziren's words woke up the person in the dream, Li Rumei suddenly realized that she wanted to follow suit, but then she heard a shout from behind her: "Hao Xun pressed!" ”
Not far away, Hao Jie led a group of family members who had already pressed the speed of their horses and slowly walked towards Shenyang City.
Hao Jie had already calculated along the way that the Mongol Tatars would come to attack with a large number of soldiers and horses, and even if they could be repulsed, it would definitely be a vicious battle. Seeing Li Rumei and Sun Shoulianjun looking neat and tidy, they looked at ease, and their faces twitched involuntarily.
Sun Shoulian had the highest official position, and hurriedly took the lead to greet him, and after making a fist salute, he said with a respectful face: "The last general, Sun Shoulian, the deputy chief soldier of Liaodong, greets Hao Xunpress, and we will defeat Mengnu in this battle." ”
Li Rumei, Sun Shoujing, Sun Shouli and others followed closely behind to greet each other, Ziren's leg injury was no longer hindered, but in order to be realistic, he deliberately slowed down, but he fell behind.
Hao Jie saw Sun Shoulian, Li Rumei and others with a flood of light, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, and when he was muttering in his heart, Ziren walked over with a staggering face, and said with a sinking face: "The last general Ding Shouming has seen Hao Xunzhi." With that, he stood beside him with a sullen face.
Hao Jie saw that among the generals, only Ziren was covered in dust, and most of the subordinates behind him were also injured, and the blades and armor he carried were full of gaps, and there were still stains of blood that he didn't have time to wipe off, and he could vaguely see the tragedy of fighting with the Tartars. Hao Jie immediately flipped off his horse and asked with concern: "Ziren, how is the battle in this battle?" ”
"If you return to the patrol, the Mongolian Tartar soldiers are at their peak, and the last general will lead his soldiers to brave the arrows and blood, and finally defeat the Tartars." At this time, Ziren took a breath and gritted his teeth and roared: "The commander of the Shenyang Wei made Cao Xixuan support the troops and did not save them, but after the Tartars retreated, they instead wanted to snatch the military merits that the last general had won desperately, and he held a grudge after failing to do so. When rushing to the aid of Puhe, it is not a pity to deliberately lead his troops to attack and expose our army's intention to die, so the Tartar dogs jumped over the wall to step up the siege of the city, causing countless casualties to the soldiers and civilians in the station.
At this time, Ziren shook his head with a sad and indignant face, and after calming his mind, he continued: "His younger brother Cao Xixuan, the imperial emperor prepared by Puhe, escaped from the battle, and almost let the Tartars break through the city, and was killed by the last general. ”
Hao Jie saw that what Ziren said didn't seem to be false, but in order to be safe, he didn't hurry to cast an inquiring glance at Sun Shoulian.
Cao Xiyuan is not Li Chengliang's subordinate, and the guards and battalion soldiers do not control each other, and this matter does not involve his own head, plus his younger brother Sun Shou has endured a lot of benefits from Ziren, Sun Shoulian naturally will not be embarrassed for the two dead people and Ziren, and said categorically: "What General Ding said is true. ”
At this time, Fan Nan came with a group of people, and after getting dressed properly, he said righteously: "Fan Nan, the student of Puhe Academy, petitioned on behalf of the squire of Puhe Institute to impeach Cao Xixuan. With that, he handed over a document signed by the gentry in the office.
Hao Jie took the document and read it carefully, and when he saw that Cao Xixuan abandoned the city without fighting, causing the Tartars to attack the city with only a hundred horsemen, he cursed with a big loss of manners: "Dog thing." ”
Although the voice was small, Ziren, who was beside him, could hear it clearly, and said with a secret smile in his heart, "The Cao family will never turn over this time!" At this time, he suddenly remembered that there was still something to do, and said: "The last general and Li Rumei and Sun Shoujing set up an ambush on the bank of the Pu River, and captured the chief Wang Shouguansheng and captured the Duoyan Department Taiji Lai Hongda, and the enemy chief Ang Xiu wrote a letter, expressing his willingness to rebuild the old friendship with the Ming Dynasty, and did not dare to make a decision easily, and asked Hao Xun to look at it. ”
After finishing speaking, he handed over two letters, and the extra one was a Chinese character version dictated by Yongwu and transcribed by Ziren.
Hao Jie was still worried that he didn't know Mongolian, but when he saw that one of the letters handed by Ziren was in Chinese characters, he nodded slightly. However, knowing that this matter was very involved, after reading it carefully, he put away the letter, ordered Sun Shoulian to take strict care of Lai Hongda, and prepared to make a decision after discussing with the governor Gu Yangqian and the general soldier Li Chengliang.
Seeing that Duoyan Taiji was captured, Hao Jie knew that the Tartars must have suffered a lot of losses, and added some trust to the results of this battle, and then ordered Jiading to inspect the heads of Mengnu one by one.
After checking the teeth, face, and bun, the family did not find anything unusual, and in order to be safe, he also ordered someone to bring clean water and throw the head of Mengnu into the water.
Hao Jie's eldest son, Hao Zhongguo, has always been wary of martial artists, worried that someone would kill good people and take risks, so after asking his family for advice, he personally stepped forward to check. When I saw the hideous heads, they all looked up to the sky. He couldn't hide his excitement and said: "Father, the face is facing the sky for a man, the face is facing down for a woman, and more than 500 heads are all real slaves." ”
Killing 500 enemies is a great victory, Hao Jie said with a smile: "Our army has less than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and it is gratifying to congratulate and congratulate on the destruction of Mengnu." This official will definitely report to the imperial court and ask for credit for the generals. At this time, seeing Ziren's untidy subordinates, he knew that Ziren was alone in this battle, and the Mongolian army besieged outside, and Cao Xiyuan's brother was too difficult to hinder, so he said guiltily: "Ziren, you have worked hard!" Say, what can this official do for you, as long as it is within the scope of authority, he will not shirk. ”
