In the early hours of the morning, Jin Shenghuan was woken up by his own soldiers in his sleep. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

If it had been in the past, no one would have dared to brush the tiger's whiskers while he was sleeping. But since Nanchang was surrounded by the Qing army, he set a rule for his soldiers, no matter how long he slept, he must wake him up once something big happened. If there is a moment's delay, whoever is on duty that night will have their head cut off.

Today, his sleep was as light as usual, and as soon as he was called by his own soldiers, a spirit crawled up: "What's wrong?" ”

"Marshal Qiqi, Deputy Marshal Wang is here, waiting outside the door." The pro-soldier answered honestly.

Wang Deren came over in person, so it will definitely not be a trivial matter.

Jin Shenghuan glared at the bull's eye and kicked his soldiers to the ground: "You fucking revenge!" Didn't Lao Tzu say it? He's coming, you just bring him in! The knives are all on the neck, and I still need you to help with this shelf? ”

"Dashuai...... Forgive your sins! The pro-soldier trembled.

"Get out! Next time, Lao Tzu will directly slaughter your sacrificial flag! ”

"Thank you...... Xie Dashuai! The soldier kowtowed, stood up and fled.

Wang Deren walked in in a hurry, with a happy look on his face: "Handsome, Nanchang...... Nanchang is saved! ”

From Wang Deren's face, it could be seen that this was definitely good news, Jin Shenghuan's mood instantly improved, and his excited tone was full of expectation: "What's the matter?" ”

"There is news from outside the city, a few days ago, Huguang Town has gone north from Ji'an, and fought with He Luohui twice south of Fengcheng and Xiaojiangkou, and He Luohui has not been able to stop them. It is estimated that in these two days, they will be able to reach the outskirts of Nanchang. Wang Deren said in an effort to calm his tone.

It was as if the person who fell into the water finally caught the help from the shore, Jin Shenghuan got up and laughed, and the haze of many days was swept away: "I'll just say, my Jin's life is not so thin!" If you want to take the tartar, you really need to have a better pair of teeth! ”

Wang Deren was also overjoyed: "It is estimated that Tan Tai and He Luohui did not expect that Pang Madman would come so quickly." It's good now, the lives of the whole city of Nanchang can be saved! The food and grass in the city are limited, and if the crazy man Pang comes a month late, this situation may not be what will happen! ”

"After walking around in the tiger's mouth, I finally got out of the way!"

"Fuck Tan Tai and He Luohui two mongrels of the Tartar court, Wang Bacao's Tartar court, I have preserved my useful body today, and I will definitely fight with them again once I have the opportunity in the future! Anyway, this life is picked up, and it is already enough, and if it goes down no matter what, it will be a sure profit. ”

......

The two smiled and expressed their opinions, releasing the clouds that had accumulated in their chests for many days, enjoying the joy of the rest of their lives. If it weren't for the fact that there was no alcohol around them at this time, and it was a special period when the city was besieged, only a drunk party could express their mood at the moment.

After the initial excitement, Jin Shenghuan gradually calmed down, and the smile on his face faded little by little after thinking of something else.

Wang Deren noticed the change in Jin Shenghuan's expression and asked, "What's wrong, Dashuai?" ”

"Aren't we happy a little early?" Jin Shenghuan sat back in his chair and lowered his gaze to think.

"Why did the marshal say that? Aren't reinforcements coming soon? That Huguang Town, we have fought against them before, and their combat power ......"

"If we're just trying to save our heads, it's really not too early to rejoice." Jin Shenghuan raised his head and interrupted Wang Deren's words, "But we have made such a big determination to raise troops against the Qing Dynasty and return to the Ming Dynasty, just to save our heads?" At the beginning, although Zhang Yutian and Dong Xuecheng were too deceitful, they were far from enough to threaten our lives. Although the Tartar court is not kind, it will not easily take the local town generals who are safe and defend themselves. Even if we can't afford to fight, we won't have to worry about our lives, at most we will be a little aggrieved. If you look at the point and change the heartless way of living, you will definitely not lose the wealth in the second half of your life. But now? Our lives are saved, but what can we get compared to before we started the army? ”

"At least...... At least ......" Wang Deren was a little unwilling, but found that he really couldn't find anything to refute Jin Shenghuan.

"At least? At least what? Don't tell me, at least we have crowned ourselves as the Duke of Yuguo and the Hou of Jianchang, and we have also sealed a large number of scholars, scholars, governors, governors, and soldiers. Hehe, do you think that when the madman Pang comes, he will respectfully call us Yuguo Gong and Jianchang Hou? The large number of governors and general soldiers we have sealed out, will the Longwu Imperial Court send them a seal according to the list? Although we saved our lives, we were no different from the situation we were in before the army. Before the army, it was controlled by the Tartar court, and in the future, the person who took care of us was probably going to be replaced by a madman. Fought hard, went around in a big circle, and finally returned to the original place, time, luck, and life! Jin Shenghuan smiled bitterly and sighed.

"That Pang madman is not the king of heaven! We just don't have to be controlled by him, so what can he do? The truth in Jin Shenghuan's words, Wang Deren is naturally not difficult to understand, but he can't accept such a big psychological gap for a while.

"He doesn't need to do anything, after arriving at the outskirts of Nanchang, he just needs to stand still and wait quietly for the grain and grass in the city to run out, until we agree to his conditions. Don't think about any temporary expedient measures, promise to come down first, and then look for an opportunity to regret it later. Look at the rest of our old book, will we still have the capital to play with him when the time comes? ”

"He dares! When we raise an army against the Qing Dynasty and return to the Ming Dynasty, the world will shake, and the people's hearts will be desired, will he not be afraid of being poked in the backbone by the world if he does this? ”

"He really didn't dare. This time, as long as the people of Nanchang do not die, the great merit of rescuing Nanchang will have to fall on his head. As for us, even if he died in the battle to defend the city before the Tartars withdrew from the siege, as long as he went to the Longwu court to posthumously confer a knighthood on them and then sympathize with our family, the people of the world would only say that he was benevolent and righteous, but not that he was not. ”

Wang Deren sat down dejectedly and listened to Jin Shenghuan's analysis, and the cruel reality made him feel a deep sense of powerlessness. At the beginning, I was unwilling to accept the status quo and fought hard, tying my head to the waistband of my pants, but I didn't expect that I couldn't jump out of the original circle in the end.

"Okay, how did the famous Wang Zamao become like a girl when he encountered such a little thing?" Jin Shenghuan walked out of the loss first, "The old man does things, and he does it, and he does it, and there is nothing to regret." At least we fought hard and cleared our own pounds, which is not necessarily a bad thing. As for the future, I'll talk about it later. I can't sleep anymore anyway, so let's go to the city together. ”

Wang Deren was still unwilling, but he was helpless, and followed Jin Shenghuan out of the house.

In order to facilitate the command of the battle, Jin Shenghuan has been living in a private house near the Yonghe Gate in the northeast of the city these days.

Seeing the arrival of the commander, the officers and soldiers of the Jin Department who were on duty at the head of the city cheered up and saluted. Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren checked the defense of the city, and then walked along the city wall all the way to the Jinxian Gate in the south of the city.

Standing at the head of the city and looking south, under the dark night, the Qing army's camp was full of shadows, and everything was no different from usual.

Jin Shenghuan looked into the distance expressionlessly, lost in thought.

............

More than 100 miles south of Nanchang City, Huguang Town has set up a continuous camp here.

Before dawn, Pang Yue had already gotten up, and after processing a few official documents, he came to a hill near the Central Military Headquarters for a walk.

At this time, the sky will be bright, and above the eastern horizon, a morning star is very eye-catching. In the past year, Pang Yue has gradually developed the habit of going out for a walk at this moment. Because the heaven and the earth are very pure at this moment, and people are not as tired as in the middle of the night, it is the best time to think about problems.

While observing the scenery around him, Pang Yue thought about things, what had happened recently and what he was about to face.

After heading north from Ji'an, Huguang Town engaged the southbound Qing army twice south of Fengcheng and at the mouth of the Xiaojiang River, and both successfully repelled the Qing army's interception, winning two battles and two victories. Regardless of whether the Qing army was determined to intercept or mainly probing, for Huguang Town, the positive significance of these two small victories cannot be ignored.

In both battles, the soldiers showed tenacious will to fight and efficient execution. The Flying Tiger Battalion's long-trained wall charge tactics have also worked wonders. When the two battles were at their closest, the Flying Tiger Battalion defeated the Qing cavalry wandering on the flanks of the battlefield with a wall charge, and then opened up the situation. If it weren't for the experienced He Luo, who would have left enough back, I'm afraid he wouldn't even have a chance to retreat.

Through these two battles, the soldiers gained greater self-confidence and suppressed the Qing army in terms of momentum. Pang Yue also roughly figured out the reality of the enemy from it, and the next thing to consider was what happened after the army arrived at the periphery of Nanchang.

Just when Pang Yue was thinking about it, Zhang Yunli also came up: "Hehe, this habit of the handsome is really good." I knew that you were here, and you didn't even go to the Central Military Department and went straight here, and you didn't make a splash. ”

"Zibin said that, I'm a little ashamed, I can have this little spare time, don't you help me share most of the pick?" Pang Yue smiled, "But there is new news coming back from the direction of Nanchang?" ”

"That's right, I just got back from the scouts this morning." Zhang Yunli handed over a drawing contained in a cowhide bag to Pang Yue.

Pang Yue opened the drawing and looked at it in front of him.

The drawings were drawn by scouts who went to reconnoiter the periphery of Nanchang, indicating part of the deployment of the Qing army outside the city of Nanchang, and marking the trenches and walled walls. Due to the strict defense of the Qing army, only part of it was detected. However, it is not difficult to deduce the tightness of the siege of the Qing army from this part.

"It's about the same as we expected, it's hard to get out of the city, and it's hard to get in from outside the city. Tan Tai and He Luohui are really battle-hardened old foxes. After reading it, Pang Yue handed the drawings back to Zhang Yunli, "However, he has his own plan, I have my bridge ladder, and when the time comes, it will be implemented according to the established plan." ”

"Then when the time comes, will you go to the city to contact Jin Shenghuan as planned?" Zhang Yunli asked again.

"Let's do it that way, compared to the Tartars, we can be regarded as benevolent and righteous." Pang Yue stretched. When I looked to the east again, the morning star was already looming, and the last of the darkness was being driven away by the light.
