The easternmost important town of Shunde Mansion is called Qinghe, because of the important geographical location, there are heavy troops, and the city wall has also been strengthened in the Wanli period, and now it is a deep ditch and a high gully and is very strong.

The cold wind blowing the yellow sand made the flags on the city hunt sound, and it also blew the Ming army next to the arrow battlements to open their eyes.

From time to time, some people are fascinated by the fine grit in their eyes, and they turn their backs and keep rubbing them with their hands, but the more they rub them, the more red and swollen they become, and the tears keep flowing.

"Qinghe, a place where birds don't poop, is really cold!" Not far away, a middle-aged general wearing a round helmet and silver chain mail grinned when he saw this, and the general Zuo on the side listened to it and echoed it.

The middle-aged general ignored the generals, but his eyes fell on a scribe wearing a square scarf and a green shirt beside him.

I saw that this person looked like thirty-five or sixteen, with a square face and scattered eyebrows, and a pair of black bean eyes flashing with a cunning light from time to time.

This man's name is Yao Wenchang, he has been with him for more than ten years, and he is resourceful and his most effective staff.

The general saw that the other party was twisting his beard, smiling evilly, knowing that something was wrong, and asked with triangular eyes.

"Wenchang, has the letter from the senior supervisor arrived?"

After hearing this, the corner of the green-shirted scribe's mouth deepened, took out a letter from his hand, took two steps and handed it over.

"Liu Shuai, the letter only arrived in the morning."

The middle-aged general smiled and tapped the other party's nose with his index finger, took the letter but saw that there was no payment on it, and muttered for a while, stabbing open the envelope and pulling out the letter.

After unfolding the letterhead, the middle-aged general's face changed, and his two eyebrows became deeper and deeper, almost squeezing into one strand.

Seeing this, everyone was curious and padded their feet and pulled their necks to look, like ducks with their wings and neck stretching their necks to fight.

"Wenchang, do you know what it says?!" The middle-aged general looked at it and handed it to the scribe in Tsing Yi.

Seeing that the other party's tone was not good, the scribe in Tsing Yi hurriedly took the letter and looked at it carefully, and the generals on the side all gathered up.

When!

I don't know which school Zuo accidentally threw the sword hanging from his waist to the ground, bluffing the surrounding generals to wipe their sweat and rub their chests.

"Lu Xiangsheng, the Middle Route Army is completely annihilated! How can it be?! The staff in Tsing Yi looked at the middle-aged general incredulously.

This middle-aged general's name is Liu Zeqing, and he was only added to the rank of prince and prince and general of the second rank in August, and he was the commander of the right army in this campaign.

Since the combat effectiveness of the Tongzhou Army was far inferior to that of Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army, its task was to attack from Qinghe and cooperate with the main force in combat.

According to the Ming Army, the guards are hereditary guard troops, and many people have fled due to their low salary, and their Tongzhou Army is no exception.

Although he recruited some more soldiers, several of his guards were not yet full, and some of the old, weak, sick and disabled, he had no more than 10,000 people on his hands.

Now that the Middle Route Army is completely wiped out, it is difficult to say whether his army can hold Qinghe City in the face of the brave and warlike Manchu cavalry.

Thinking of this, the middle-aged general's face was also very embarrassed, and he pointed to the letter and said with difficulty.

"Keep watching."

Woooo

Who knew that the staff in Tsing Yi tore up the letter in his hand several times and threw it into the air, and those snow-white fragments were immediately swept up by the wind and floated into the distance like snowflakes in the sky.

The generals exclaimed, and some people were so anxious that they scolded in a low voice.

The corners of the middle-aged general's mouth moved slightly, and he looked around knowingly.

Yao Wenchang glanced viciously at the officer next to him and said loudly.

"Dashuai, this letter is fake! The Manchu spies made a strategy! The Tianxiong Army was well-trained, well-equipped, and its commander, Lu Xiangsheng, was a famous general who had experienced a hundred battles, how could such a powerful army be wiped out? ”

As soon as this statement came out, the generals around said yes, and they all knew that the Tianxiong Army was a strong army in the Ming Dynasty, and it had never been defeated in more than 100 battles.

Moreover, the letter came in a hurry, saying that it was sent by the director Jun Gao Qiqian, but there was not even a payment on the letterhead, which is really debatable.

"Let's all go down!" The middle-aged general waved his hand at the generals behind him, and the group shook their heads and groaned.

When everyone walked away, a trace of coldness flashed in the eyes of the Tsing Yi staff, and he whispered to Liu Zeqing.

"Liu Shuai, you have to listen to Lord Jian Jun about this! Something has to be taken. ”

After hearing this, Liu Zeqing looked at the wind in the distance and was silent, Qinghe is good at everything, but the wind and sand are too big, and his hair and body are dirty here all year round, even if he takes a bath every day, it is useless.

"What about Lu Xiangsheng's escaped soldiers?" Liu Zeqing glanced back at Yao Wenchang and swallowed his saliva.

"Kill!" Yao Wenchang's eyes were cold, and he made a knife in his hand and drew an arc in the air.

He saw that the other party was holding the black hilt of the sword and turning around, knowing that he was hesitating, so he took a step forward and said gloomily.

"Liu Shuai, just because we didn't deal with this point, it's a capital crime!"

Liu Zeqing was shocked, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he was speechless.

He knew that as the other party said, even if he took the lead in denouncing the other party and did not give them the order to attack, he would be bitten by the other party and be killed first in violation of the general order, and the relationship in the court was extremely strong, and it was said that Yang Sichang, a cabinet scholar, was one of his queens. Platform.

Today's cabinet advocates passive defense against the Manchus, while Shang, Zhou, Zuo, Lu Xiangsheng, and others are rare main fighters in the imperial court, and are hated by the cabinet.

It was not Yang Sichang's instigation to kill Lu Xiangsheng this time, and Liu Zeqing couldn't help but shudder when he thought of this.

Yao Wenchang held a shaking flagpole in front of him with his hand and said hesitantly.

"The other party has actually been planning for a long time and has prepared a backhand, and if we are disobedient, we will be eliminated. Besides, Lu Xiangsheng's death is also good for the general! ”

Poop!

Liu Zeqing pulled out his sword and slashed at the corner of the wall, and before he could speak, he heard the nearby soldiers shouting in the distance.

"Look, there's cavalry over there!"

Sure enough, a few black spots appeared on the dirt slope in the distance, and Liu Zeqing hurriedly asked left and right to pass a brown clairvoyant and looked up: several horsemen in bearded clothes galloped towards Qinghe City......

******

"Bring in!"

There was a stir outside the hall for a while, and several tattered and dirty "Tartars" were carried in by heavily armed Ming soldiers.

As soon as the hand was released, several people fell to the ground with a puff, and they were covered in injuries!

The buzzing discussion in the tent was stagnant, and everyone's eyes instantly shot to the only "Tartar" standing.

This man's face was full of black-red blood scabs, the cotton armor on his body was only scratched by swords, and there was a half-broken arrow shaft stuck in his shoulder, and the arrow blade was deep into it, which could be described as miserable!

When the generals saw this, they shook their heads and sighed, and some of them couldn't bear to bow their heads.

"Handsome! Under the mark is the Tianxiong Army, a hundred households and Chu Suifeng, not a spy! The "Hu man" slanted Liu Zeqing on the handsome seat and hugged his fist, but it seemed that he also had an injury on his leg and fell to the ground without holding it steady.

The surrounding generals were moved, and some people unconsciously walked a few steps forward, but they heard the handsome green-shirted staff cough a few times, and stopped helplessly.

Liu Zeqing heard that Chu Suifeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at the intact cowhide envelope on the desk, and the token that was about to be thrown was suddenly closed.

Last year, I heard that Lu Xiangsheng's subordinates had more people who would make money, and they were nicknamed Crazy Fox, not only did they have many ideas for fighting wars, but they also knew how to make money.

He has always wanted to recruit the other party to the account, and he discussed this matter with Lu Xiangsheng several times, who knew that the guy was very slammering, he used five guerrillas and twenty firecrackers to make his lungs hurt because the other party did not breathe.

Now there is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!

Yao Wenchang saw that the black token in Liu Zeqing's hand was put down, and he immediately knew the other party's thoughts, and said on the side.

"Bold! At the city gate just now, you rumored that the Middle Route Army was wiped out, so how did you kill it from the tens of thousands of Eight Banner cavalry? Could it be that you are Changshan Zhao Zilong? ”

After speaking, there was laughter around him, and the generals on both sides covered their mouths and pointed.

Chu struggled to get up from the ground with the wind and glared around, and the generals, including Yao Wenchang, were shocked, and the laughter stopped abruptly.

The other party's gaze is as cold as two ice knives, and it makes people shudder when they look at it and go straight to their hearts!

Seeing that all the people around him were closed, Chu Suifeng leaned over and said to Liu Zeqing on the handsome seat.

"Governor Lu was killed in ambush, and his subordinates should be beheaded for their ineffective guards! But my brother is not guilty! Please let them go. ”

These words were sonorous and powerful, and several "Hu people" lying next to them shouted vigorously after hearing this.

"Handsome! If you cut off a hundred households, we will never be alone! ”

"Dashuai, ahem...... Hundreds of households have been wronged! ”

Seeing this, the generals on both sides turned their heads and tried not to look, and the soldiers around them hung their heads one after another.

Yao Wenchang saw that Liu Zeqing's left hand was constantly holding the token again, and he whispered to the side of his body.

"Dashuai, let them go, I'm afraid that something will happen to us!"

The corners of Liu Zeqing's mouth twitched slightly, and he picked up the arrow and pointed it downwards and shouted.

"Boldly build a slave, actually quibble! Come on, pull these spies out and cut them down! ”
