Chapter 329: Darkness and Strategy

Hearing that someone was writing a letter on his behalf, the young man's steps slowed down, his body turned suddenly, and his lean lumbar spine "snapped" with a crisp sound, and when he saw that the person who came was Zhu Youzhen, his face was changeable, and finally he said lightly: "Does the master want to write a letter to his family or a letter to his teacher?" ”

"Well, I took the trouble to transcribe a passage from Mencius. Zhu Youzhen smiled indifferently, there is a classic in this article of Mencius that has been inherited for thousands of years: "Heaven will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, starve their muscles and bones, work their bodies and skin, and benefit what they cannot." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The young man glanced at Zhu Youzhen deeply a few times, and said, "Master, stay for a while, I'll come when I go."

Zhu Youzhen knew that the other party must be looking for a place to transport pen and books, this messy tavern is indeed not a good place to write letters, thinking of this, he smiled relievedly, and said: "You can do it yourself, I'll wait at this door."

The young man's jaw was about to leave, but after looking at his sister beside him, he hesitated slightly, but still grabbed it with one arm, for fear of being robbed.

The little girl's big bright eyes looked at Zhu Youzhen curiously, and when she approached, she thanked her in a low voice.

Zhu Youzhen couldn't be denied, he waited at the door for a long time, and the young man went and returned.

"Sir, you want the article"

Zhu Youzhen was overjoyed, he took the paper and carefully studied the hastily written words.

Surprisingly, the boy's handwriting is really beautiful, and every stroke in it is strong and sharp.

Zhu Youzhen sighed sincerely: "Good word, this silver is what you deserve" After saying that, he handed out a piece of silver of ten taels, which he had just asked for from Wang Chengen......

"Master, it's too much, you don't need so much"

"Your words are worth this price, I still made a bargain", after that, Zhu Youzhen handed the paper to the guards behind him.

The young man hesitated, looked down at his sister with yellow and thin faces, his face darkened, and finally took the silver, and said in his mouth: "Thank you, master!" ”

Zhu Youzhen was silent, "Such a good word, have you ever gone to school?" ”

The young man sighed and said, "I've only read for a few years, and I have no fame, and now I've even lost my guide."

Zhu Youzhen pondered for a while, and said: "Okay, if you have time, I'll let someone accompany you to make up a road guide later."

The young man went to the ground and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Shi Lang is grateful!" ”

"Shi Lang?"

The young man slowly bowed his head and said, "It's exactly below."

If Wang Teng was here, he would definitely be surprised, just shopping, he could meet the generals of the navy who could be clearly counted at the end of the Ming Dynasty......

It's a pity that Zhu Youzhen doesn't know what Shi Lang will be extraordinary in the future, "Where do you want to go after making up the road guide?" ”

"I have an aunt in Shanxi, and I want to take my sister to join my family"

"Traveling far to Shanxi, how can it be done without silver, Cheng En, and give this young man twenty taels of silver"

Wang Chengen didn't dare to say much, just took out the silver and waited to ask for it.

Who would have thought that Shi Lang had no intention of taking silver at all, "The master has already given ten taels of silver, and the 220,000 yuan is unacceptable, as long as the road guide is reissued, our brother and sister will definitely be able to go to Shanxi if they are thrifty."

Zhu Youzhen saw that Shi Lang was determined, and couldn't help but admire: "Good boy, don't be fed by the mouth, well, this is my ring, if there is a fate in the future, you and I will see you again!" ”

Shi Lang didn't want to take it, but after seeing Zhu Youzhen's sincere gaze, he still took it......

In Baoding City, Lu Xiangsheng fought bloodily, and 5,000 elites burst out with great combat power under his command.

Although there are many Abatai, it will be difficult to get hold of them for a while.

Abatai originally wanted to use Lu Xiangsheng as bait to force the Ming army to rescue, but, surprisingly, from beginning to end, the soldiers and horses in the nearby city did not have the intention of galloping to rescue.

It can be seen from this that either the city guards are at odds with Lu Xiangsheng, and he wants to kill Lu Xiangsheng with the help of Abatai's hand; Either the guard is determined and resourceful, and he has already seen Abatai's plan.

Abatai would rather believe in the former than have a prejudgment on the guards, but according to the known information, the nearby guards must have been ordered by Lu Xiangsheng, otherwise, the governor of Xuanda would be in trouble, and they would not dare not save them.

"It's a pity, it's a pity", Abatai sent tens of thousands of troops to risk attacking, in order to attack the east and west, kill Lu Xiangsheng or capture the city to echo Azig.

Slash the Heavenly Army?

It sounds like a small result, but compared to Abatai, this kind of record can only be said to be better than nothing.

Lu Xiangsheng is immortal, and there is no point in killing more people and horses.

If Baoding City is not broken, it will be difficult for the main force of the Abatai army to advance an inch.

How to beat the level?

Attack, outwit, Abatai tried his best, but unfortunately, no matter how the Qing army attacked, the defenders could always come up with a solution.

This time, Abatai finally relied on the news of the Guangling army's victory to create a trap, which led Lu Xiangsheng out of the city, and wanted to capture the city in one fell swoop, but now it is obviously difficult to succeed.

Nine times out of ten things are unsatisfactory in the world, Abatai has exhausted all the organs, but it has not been satisfactory, and Lu Xiangsheng has already become more and more ashamed.

After Baoding was besieged, the news was cut off, Abatai deliberately released the news that the Guangling army was besieged, Lu Xiangsheng could not see death without help, so he could only lead the army out of the city.

Iron bones and arrow rain poured in turns, and most of Lu Xiangsheng's men and horses had been damaged, and although the rest of the men and horses did not fall, they were also injured.

There are soldiers who die in battle every moment, this is an old soldier who has followed Lu Xiangsheng for several years.

However, reality played a joke on Lu Xiangsheng.

When Wang Teng won a complete victory, Lu Xiangsheng was unexpectedly tricked, and 2,000 soldiers and horses were not served.

Lu Xiangsheng's heart was dripping blood, and only by constantly fighting could he calm the pain in his heart.

"Puff puff", blood splashed, the Qing army died, the Qing army died under Lu Xiangsheng's gun, the Qing army had already exceeded more than ten people, with his personal bravery, if he abandoned the soldiers and fled alone, he was fully sure that he could retreat, but Lu Xiangsheng did not want to escape.

There are still 2,000 men and horses in the city, and they are the guarantee of Baoding......

It was precisely because the Tianxiong army was divided into two that Lu Xiangsheng's strength was greatly reduced and he was besieged by the Qing army.

The defenders don't dare to act rashly, does Lu Xiangsheng still have reinforcements?

At this time, the sky was getting brighter, and Lu Xiangsheng was like entering a no-man's land with one shot.

Abatai looked at it and sighed, "Lu Xiangsheng is a rare general in the Ming army, it's a pity, it's a pity ......"

Five hundred steps away, Lu Xiangsheng was already under siege.

A commander of the Qing army has already stepped forward, blindly allowing Lu Xiangsheng to fight, only by adding casualties, in the case of the overall situation has been decided, Abatai is unwilling to let his soldiers bury Lu Xiangsheng's hands.

The Qing generals attacked, and the worst could entangle Lu Xiangsheng and make it difficult to distract him.

The red sun emerges in the east, and thousands of colorful rays are reflected down.

At the head of Baoding City, the defenders held their breath, and at the end of the line of sight, the Qing army surrounded Lu Xiangsheng's soldiers and horses.

Some generals couldn't bear it anymore and begged for war: "General, go out of the city, the overseer is not a servant."

The guard was in pain, and he struggled, but reason told him that it would be useless to go out of the city at this time.

"General, please fight!"

Gao Sheng sighed and said, "Do you think I'm greedy for life and afraid of death? I'm more anxious than anyone else, but what's the use of being anxious? If there is no other support army, we alone will not be able to do anything."

"Where are Wang Teng's soldiers and horses now?"

The news of the Guangling Army's arrival finally reached the city, and the defenders were looking forward to it.

"I'm afraid I haven't arrived yet"

Everyone was gloomy in their hearts, and there were no reinforcements, which meant that they could only watch Lu Xiangsheng fight alone.

The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and the thing hurts it.

Just when Abatai thought that the overall situation had been decided, suddenly a team of red armor soldiers came out from the flank.

"Knock knock", the rapid drum beat shook people's lungs.

"Who's coming?"

Lu Xiangsheng was overjoyed, and he laughed wildly: "Haha, it's good, it's good!" ”

The red-clothed general is familiar with Lu Xiangsheng, and it is Wang Teng, the general of the Pingyuwei.

At the last moment, the appearance of Guangling Army was just right.

The Qing army's flanks were weak, and they suddenly fell into a brief chaos when they were careless.

No one expected that Lu Xiangsheng's reinforcements were not in the city, but on the mountains outside the city.

The Guangling Army and Abatai are old acquaintances, Abatai has killed the Guangling Army many times, but he has lost his own troops, for this reason, Abatai has become a laughing stock.

This time, Wang Teng led the army to attack, which was a coincidence, who would have thought that he would actually bump into the scene of Lu Xiangsheng in distress.

After a little thought, Wang Teng gave the order for a surprise attack.

Then, under the cover of night, the Guangling army quietly appeared from the foot of the mountain and rushed straight to the Qing army.

At the head of the city, the generals cheered in unison.

The defenders came, and Lu Xiangsheng was saved.

Gao Sheng was very calm: "Cao Da, you lead the troops and horses out of the city, and you must rescue the superintendent no matter what."

Cao Da Jaw headed, "Order!" ”

"Boom", the city gate opened, and Cao Da led five hundred soldiers and horses to the outside of the city.

It was a good thing that the defenders were out of the city, but at the moment, Abatai was in a hurry.

The number of Guangling troops was too large, and as soon as they appeared, they disrupted the Qing army's formation, and Lu Xiangsheng in the encirclement was not good at stubble, the two sides should cooperate inside and outside, and the Qing army's encirclement was crumbling.

By the time Cao's surprise attack came, Lu Xiangsheng had been entangled by the Qing army commanders.

Just in case, Cao Da bent his bow and took an arrow, and an arrow was shot, and the target went straight to the Qing general.

The Qing general seemed to be aware of it, and just as he was about to make a dodge move, Lu Xiangsheng took advantage of the gap to attack.

In desperation, the Qing generals had no choice but to fight.

Suddenly, a flash of light rushed in.

The Qing general's heart jumped, and the "poof" arrow hit him in the eye.

"Ahh

Xiahoudun was hit by an arrow in his left eye, and he was furious.

Lu Xiangsheng had heartache to beat the water dog, but unfortunately, the Qing army around him was well protected, and he couldn't succeed.

Who shoots the cold arrow?

The hidden arrow was not enough to hurt people, but it solved Lu Xiangsheng's urgent need.

The Qing army had no choice but to retreat, and the Qing army's offensive gradually slowed down, but it was the Tianxiong army that launched a counterattack.

"Cao Da, thanks to you this time!" Lu Xiangsheng was quite emotional.

"The adults have tormented the villain", Cao Dalian was humble and did not dare to take credit.

At the same time, Wang Teng stared at the Qing army, and said unsatisfied: "Abatai is here, can you rush to kill?" ”

Lu Xiangsheng and Cao Xiu glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison.

"No, the Qing army has the advantage of strength, and if you attack rashly, it is very likely to get into trouble"

"The troops are tired from the long battle, and they must rest well, and it will be difficult to fight again in a short time."

After hearing this, Wang Teng said with regret: "It's just a pity that Abatai's good head."

Lu Xiangsheng's gritted teeth "gurgle", "Let's let him be rampant for a few days, and when the soldiers rest for a few days, I will definitely take his head!" ”

Cao Da was noncommittal.

At this time, the Qing army had already stabilized its position, and they even pressed forward step by step under the constraints of their respective generals.

Lu Xiangsheng's troops and horses were already exhausted, and after the reinforcements arrived, they just wanted to get out of the battle group as soon as possible and rest well.

Although the Guangling army was fierce, it had come from a long journey, and it was already tired and tired, and it was obviously not enough to expect them to fight for a long time.

After the Ming army joined forces, they fought and retreated, and the Qing army was helpless.

Since the battle of Baozhou, after Wang Teng won a complete victory, he had a secret discussion with Mao Guan, first, to let the Baozhou army pretend to be the Guangling army stationed outside the city; Second, it was widely advertised that the Guangling Army suffered heavy casualties and could not easily go into battle......

While paralyzing Jiannu, Wang Teng had already led the Guangling army to secretly go north.

Abatai never expected that Wang Teng would dare to rush overnight, and he was completely caught off guard by surprise.

Not long after, the group successfully retreated into Baoding City.

Lu Xiangsheng breathed a sigh of relief, "Wang Teng, you were too risky just now, if the Guangling Army made a mistake, wouldn't Jiannu go straight in?" ”

Wang Teng said with a smile: "The adult is the mainstay of Xuanda, there can be no mistakes, since I am here, how can I see death and not save it?" ”

Lu Xiangsheng didn't know how to reprimand, "You, you ......"

Gao Sheng smiled at this time: "Inspector, don't you know yet, General Wang Counselor won a big battle and beheaded nearly a thousand Jiannu."

Lu Xiangsheng was surprised, "There is such a thing?" ”

"It's just six hundred heads, it's nothing"

What is called pretending, this is called pretending!

Lu Xiangsheng is a dignified Ming Governor, and he has only beheaded more than 300 so far.

Wang Teng had such a result in only a few days after he went out to fight, and he really envied others......

Outside the city, Abatai wanted to take advantage of the situation to attack the city, but the strength of the defenders increased instead of decreasing, so he had to give up this plan.

However, Abatai failed to make another plan, and he caused rumors to spread that Wang Teng had already descended to the Qing Dynasty, and the reason why he sneaked into the city was actually a bad intention, but it was to act as an internal response.

If there is no Lu Xiangsheng in charge, maybe the Ming army may really be suspicious of each other, but under Lu Xiangsheng's control, there is no market for any bad rumors.

In order to prove his innocence, Wang Teng stayed with Lu Xiangsheng all day long, and he completely handed over the soldiers to Zhou Yuji, Huang Degong and others.

At this time, Lu Xiangsheng knew that the Cao family had put Cao Dingjiao next to Wang Teng.

With Cao Dingjiao's endorsement, naturally no one dares to underestimate Wang Teng.

Just imagine, if you can't even trust Cao Dingjiao and other loyal martyrs, who else can be trusted? (To be continued.) )
