Chapter 142: Cowardly 3
These words were said in front of Zhang An, Yang Rong and other Ming border army bosses, as well as Batu Munch and his son, after hearing this, basically those who could speak frowned.
The idea of the Ming army is what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd? Could it be that there is one less Batu Munch, and the governor still wants to support another little Tatar prince to come out?
The Tatar side thought that this young general was kicked in the head by a donkey, and if he said this in front of us, he was not afraid that we would break the net and let the 100,000 army and the Ming army fight to the death?
Manduhai's face became very calm, his eyes were lifeless, and he spoke very fluent Chinese: "Isn't the ending of the two paths that this general said the same?" ”
Zhang Ru looked at this charming beauty for a long time, different from the woman of the Ming Dynasty, this woman seems to have both the softness of a difficult woman and the boldness of a northern woman. Even, she still has a kind of Huguang woman's pungency in her bones.
Xu was stared at by the naked gaze of an enemy general who was much younger than himself, and a trace of unnaturalness flashed on Man Duhai's face: "If you want to talk, did the general bring my nephew over first?" ”
Zhang Ru came back to his senses and nodded: "Your nephew will naturally let you see it, but before that, Ben Jiang still wants to ask Ke Dun, how do you choose these two paths." ”
Manduhai's face was filled with a sneering look: "If it were a normal person, I would definitely choose the first one, but I betrayed your Ming Kingdom and let your subordinates be beaten half to death by Batu Munk, even if I can make my poor nephew become the Great Khan of Mongolia, it is nothing more than a puppet in the hands of your Ming Kingdom."
The general can say that those grassland generals who are loyal to the golden family must not be idle. The general's desire to control the development of the tribes in the steppe was easily in the face of the great loss of vitality of the Mongol Empire.
Things have come to this point, Batu Munk has become a prisoner of your Ming Kingdom, and my so-called Kedun is just a fish to be slaughtered. The general thinks, is it still useful to talk about those so-called conditions? ”
Alibu interjected, "Kedun, we."
Manduhai scolded sharply: "Shut up! Alibu, you've let me down so much. Let a general of the Ming Kingdom be fooled with a few words, do you want to make all the thousands of warriors on the grassland become vassals of the Ming Kingdom. ”
Before he could speak, he was scolded, but Alibu couldn't refute it.
Zhang Ru had no choice but to help: "Ke Dun, you can't say that, Alibu also took risks for the sake of the little prince." Besides, I don't think I'm as good as you think, what you want is nothing more than grain, cloth, and tea from the Central Plains, and what we want is a fair trading place.
In the past, the Ming Dynasty and you Tatar traded with each other, and every time the people who broke the rules seemed to be grassland people, you had no silver to exchange for cattle and sheep, but you couldn't rob it.
Today, Your Majesty is benevolent, you come to fight the grass valley every year, and you take a lot of things every year, as long as you don't go too far, Your Majesty has not raised troops to fight.
Now I give a chance to trade with each other, a good thing once and for all, General Alibu has already agreed, but I don't know what Kedun means. ”
Manduhai glared at Alibu, and then the resentment in his eyes turned into resentment: "It's because he easily agreed to your request that such a Mongolian warrior die outside this Datong city."
In the past, it was not all the fault of the grassland men when they traded with each other, they took out cattle and sheep to exchange things at the beginning, but your merchants in the Ming Kingdom bullied the grassland people to be sincere, the goods were shoddy, and the shortage of catties and catties happened from time to time, and the grain was full of sand.
You can't be bullied by others when you are a man on the grassland, but we can't get it back by ourselves after being bullied.
Instead of investigating the truth, your officials detained our people, and in the end their families got only a corpse. ”
Both of them are evasive, and what they say is the actual situation, but neither of them is what the other side says.
When there are both parties at fault in the mutual market, no one knows what the specific reason is, after all, the parties have already died.
However, some grassland people and some merchants in the Central Plains have their inferior roots, which is like a monkey laughing at a rabbit without a tail, and a rabbit laughing at a monkey's red buttocks.
Knowing that there was already some confusion on this issue, Zhang Ru didn't want to get entangled with this woman, so he waved his hand and said, "General Alibu, persuade your Ke Dun well." I will take Batumunk and his sons with me, and after you have convinced the 100,000 soldiers of the confrontation, I will tell me the rest. ”
Alibu nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll do my best." ”
After speaking, Zhang Ru walked out of the Golden Horde of the Khan King with a swagger, and the Tatar cavalry watching from a distance did not dare to move, for fear that Zhang Ru would kill Batu Munk.
In this way, tens of thousands of Ming soldiers returned to Fort Security with the bodies of their dead brothers, leaving thousands of foot soldiers to swagger to clean up the battlefield before leaving. Of course, they didn't go too far, but they took some of the horses and Tatar scimitars and left, leaving the bulk for Alib's men to clean up.
The two thousand Hukou recruits, who didn't take Zhang Ru's order as an order at all, were really panicked at this time, and cheekily embellished the end of the team under the leadership of a few bold recruits.
They also felt lucky, glad that the Ming army had won this battle, otherwise they would have been miserable.
As soon as the clinker entered the gate of the security fort, Zhang Ru suddenly ordered: "Come on, take down the more than 2,000 people who are decorated in the back." ”
The recruits have never experienced the battle formation, so they are naturally no match for those old pawns, and many of these old pawns have already killed the red eye. In addition, the Soaring Cloud Rider under Wang Zhou has been staring at these people all the time, so the guards at the security guard easily took down more than 2,000 people.
Surrounded by everyone, he went to the head of the city, which was not a wide fortress, Zhang Ru looked down and saw dead bodies everywhere, and the soil on the ground was plowed all over by the iron hooves of the war horses, and a lot of the soil was stained red with blood.
He looked down quietly and said to Yang Rong: "I still have a few thousand brothers outside, please ask Yang Zongbing to send someone out of the city to answer, as long as they leave a mark along the way, they will be able to find a place." ”
Yang Rong nodded and said, "The last general will obey the order." ”
Zhang Ru glanced at Zhang An and said sharply: "Bring those more than 2,000 people to the general." ”
Under the escort of the Soaring Cloud Rider, 2,000 people lined up in a long line at the head of the city, kneeling in a row at the head of the city, many people were terrified, and some people were trembling with fear.
"Lin is invincible." Zhang Ru shouted.
Lin Wushu came out of the crowd, and the arrow wound on his body hadn't had time to clean up, and he didn't think that this small injury needed to be treated.
A small folding fan was handed to Zhang Ru, and there were traces of dried and blackened blood on the folding fan.
The folding fan was an item carried by a southern scholar, and it was also the only item left by the weak scholar.
Zhang Ru raised the folding fan and said loudly: The owner of this folding fan is a scholar, and he has no power to tie the chicken, and he came to Datong just to study and study, not to join the army and fight.
His name is Liu Peng, his body is now lying on the cemetery outside the tiger's mouth, before he died, the tiger's mouth guard Lin Wushu asked him a word, is it worth it for you to do this, you could have been a high school champion and live in the temple, why did you lose your life for this senseless war?
He said that men don't bury their bones, even though this is a senseless war, but seeing so many Pao Ze brothers bleeding on the battlefield, let me hold the Four Books and Five Classics and chew the words, Lao Tzu can't do it.
Look at him, look at you!
You are Datong's border army, and you are all recruits who have never seen blood like him, but he faces life and death, but you disobey on the battlefield.
This folding fan is Liu Peng, raised his head, and looked at Lao Tzu, looking at this folding fan, imagining who its owner is.
Wen is dead, and martial arts are fighting to the death!
Open your dog's eyes wide, look at this scholar who died on the border of Datong, look at this scholar who should have spit on the temple, look at this scholar who can't bear to see more brothers die on the border.
Each of you holds a spear in your hand, wears a sword at your waist, and keeps saying that you are the son of the Ming Dynasty. Now, all fucking patted Lao Tzu's chest and asked himself, are you worthy?
Two thousand, a whole two thousand people are timid, you might as well touch the bird under your crotch to see if it's still there. Looking at this folding fan, are you ashamed, ashamed! ”
The veterans present were all stunned, and even some of the recruits who were not afraid of death were also angry.
They are warriors, and they don't want to face the enemy on the battlefield, and there is a group of robes behind them that drag their own pace, these so-called robes, don't do it.
Some of the kneeling people wept silently, as if they were touched by Zhang Ru's words; There are also people who are numb and take it for granted to let themselves live; Some people even lowered their heads and pondered, as if they were thinking about whether Zhang Ru's words were in the end.
However, the unanimous reaction of all was silence.
"Zhang An, these two thousand people are your people, what do you say should be done?" Zhang Ru looked at the veteran beside him in a daze.
For these temporarily recruited soldiers, Zhang An's heart beat the drum, he didn't know what medicine Zhang Ru's gourd was selling, and he didn't dare to answer rashly for a while.
Seeing that Zhang An didn't speak for a long time, Zhang Ru said again: "If you don't say it, I'll say it for you, according to military regulations, those who disobey orders on the battlefield will be killed!" ”
"Overseer." Zhang An subconsciously wanted to ask for mercy, these people were not old soldiers, and it was not their own will to come to be soldiers.
Zhang Ru's tone took a big turn: "However, for the sake of you all recruits, remember it for the time being." From now on, the nine-sided border army will have one more military regulation, and those who are cowardly will be killed! There will be a next time, the general's knife will drink blood. ”
A group of recruits who were already desperate suddenly ignited their hope and immediately kowtowed to the ground.
The people who rode the clouds carefully observed everyone's expressions, and those who were truly repentant would naturally let go, and those who were still numb had unfortunately become sacrifices to the flag.
