Seeing that the Qing soldiers had completely withdrawn, Yu Xiang ordered the battlefield to be cleaned up, and two huge pits were dug on the spot, one pit to bury the bodies of the refugees, and the other pit to bury the bodies of the Qing soldiers.

Lu Xiangsheng stood aside, wanted to speak several times and stopped, but then he couldn't help it, and said: "Your Excellency, why don't you cut off the heads of Qing soldiers?" Report to the court, you can be rewarded for your merits! ”

Yu Xiang shook his head and said: "Forget it, it's enough to be lucky to live this time, if the imperial court really cares about you and me, it won't let you and me take risks alone, and we won't save you, although these soldiers are invaders, but if the Ming Dynasty is strong and politically clear, they will not come to invade." They are also warriors, so let them settle in the ground. ”

Lu Xiangsheng saw that Yu Xiang had made up his mind, so he didn't say anything more.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the New Guard evacuated the giant deer. As soon as he was walking on the road, a soldier came to report: "Guangzong County closed the city gate, saying that the refugees were mixed with the Qing army, and said that they would not let the refugees enter the city." ”

Yu Xiang was anxious and happy, knowing that he would let the refugees move towards Jize, and then transfer to Anyang together.

...

Speaking of the Qing soldiers, Yue Tuo was killed by a red-coated cannon, the Qing soldiers were in a mess, in the process of inspecting Yue Tuo, a few more shells fell on the position of the Qing soldiers, the main generals of the right wing army were almost all killed, and the Qing soldiers were in chaos, so they sounded the horn of the collection of troops, quickly retreated, and moved closer to Dolgon on the northern front.

Dolgon learned about the battle situation, extremely shocked, they can be described as heavy losses this time, the loss of the Qing army and iron cavalry amounted to thousands, this is the elite of the elite, the general Yue Tuo was also killed in the battle of the giant deer, this battle, greatly injured.

Yue Tuo's military command ability was not under Dolgon, and he was a well-known victorious general in the Qing army. Therefore, they did not dare to rashly attack the New Guard. Yue Tuo's death was a great blow to Dolgon, and he was afraid of the New Guards, not only did he not dare to take the initiative to attack the New Guards, but he was worried about being attacked by the New Guards, because this time they were alone in the depths, without the slightest follow-up supply line, relying on grabbing all the way, fighting all the way, and fighting to feed the war, if they really met a tough opponent, their team would be in danger of being wiped out.

After confirming that the New Guard had no intention of pursuing them, Dorgon did not rush to leave, but pointed the finger at Chen Xinjia's subordinate to the north of him. Defeat Chen Xinjia's subordinates, and you can defeat the chasing soldiers who are crushing behind you!

Dorgon will do what he plans and plant more flags on his positions!

Chen Xinjia received the battle report, and the Qing army suffered a heavy defeat and suffered heavy losses. After observing that more flags were planted on the Qing soldiers' positions, Chen Xinjia believed that the Qing soldiers were still bluffing, which was a sign of insufficient troops, and immediately launched an all-out attack and stormed the Qing soldiers' positions.

As soon as the troops were dispatched, they entered the ambush circle of the Qing army, and Chen Xinjia's department was not the opponent of the Qing army's iron cavalry at all, suffered heavy losses, threw down more than 20,000 corpses, and fled back to the city in embarrassment, and the gate was closed.

Dolgon was worried that the new guards would return and become frightened birds, so he didn't dare to stay longer, so he led his troops back to Saiwai in a hurry, and the history of breaking through Jinan and plundering a large number of people and animals did not appear, but Dolgon still left a lot of Han spies and spread rumors that Yu Xiang had massacred refugees.

Besides, Chen Xinjia was defeated by the Qing soldiers, and he was angry and angry, and scolded the New Guards for not coming to the rescue, but fortunately, the Qing soldiers did not continue to attack.

After the Qing troops retreated, Chen Xinjia hurriedly sent people to inquire about the movements of the New Guards, and learned that the New Guards had returned to Anyang, leaving behind two huge mass graves. And did not cut off the heads of the Qing soldiers.

Chen Xinjia was overjoyed, and in the middle of the night, he made people dig open the pit of the Qing soldiers, and cut off the heads of the Qing soldiers one by one, as many as 6,000, and all of them were the heads of the Qing people, and achieved such a fruitful success at one time, which was unique before.

Although Chen Xinjia was defeated, he was still glorious, and he returned to Beijing with a puff of heart. He was ceremoniously received by the Manchu culture and the Chongzhen Emperor.

Chen Xinjia's villain first sued, first accusing Lu Xiangsheng of disobeying the military order, not sticking to the giant deer, and fleeing from the battle, causing Chen Xinjia's army to be attacked by the Qing people and suffered heavy losses.

The second complaint that the New Guards suddenly appeared, assisted Lu Xiangsheng to escape, disrupted the original military deployment, and did not assist the army led by Chen Xinjia against the Qing soldiers.

In the end, they boasted about how to kill the enemy bravely and how to achieve great feats.

Chongzhen was originally a little skeptical of what Chen Xinjia said, but he couldn't bear the accuracy of what Yang Sichang and a group of courtiers said, and unanimously supported Chen Xinjia, and then saw the head of the Qing people brought back by Chen Xinjia.

Everywhere Chen Xinjia went, the people cheered and were deeply loved by the people.

Emperor Chongzhen was very happy, he didn't expect that Chen Xinjia, who was recommended by Yang Sichang, would achieve such a feat, and beat the Qing people back to the gate in one fell swoop, and a false alarm was resolved like this.

Promulgation of the holy decree: Because Chen Xinjia had a good way to resist the enemy and made outstanding achievements, Chen Xinjia was immediately appointed as the secretary of the military department. Yang Sichang has a good eye for people, and he is recommended well, and he is appointed as a scholar of Shoufu University.

History has been interpreted in a different way, which Yu Xiang never expected, shameless people are incorruptible and shameless under the feudal autocracy, and they deceive their superiors and subordinates, but they live like a fish in water, left and right. Lu Xiangsheng was worried about the country and the people, and after he died, he ran into walls everywhere and was ostracized.

After Chen Xinjia became the secretary of the military department, he was worried that those things on the Julu battlefield would be exposed, so he was careful and took action again and again. First suppressed Lu Xiangsheng's old subordinate Xuan Dabing, transferred his main generals, and some disobedient generals were either imprisoned or secret. executed, sent his own henchmen to take charge of Xuan Dabing, created an atmosphere of terror, and ruthlessly attacked some soldiers who did not obey the control, which made Xuan Dabing panic.

At this time, the Qing people spread rumors about the massacre of refugees in front of Yu Xiang's array, because these refugees were ordinary people near Kyoto, and many people in the capital were more or less related to them, and the huge grief of losing their relatives intensified in the case of people with ulterior motives fanning the wind and igniting the fire, Chen Xinjia took the opportunity to fan the wind and add fuel to the fire, so that the whole capital wanted everyone to eat Yu Xiang's flesh and drink Yu Xiang's blood, and everyone hated Yu Xiang very much.

In the end, the lie actually made the liar himself believe the truth, Chen Xinjia even felt that he had done a good thing in Julu, and it was the right move not to help Yu Xiang on the Julu battlefield at the beginning.

The plot reversed, it turned out that although Yu Xiang's faction saw the wind and turned the direction of the wind, they were still panicked, not all day long, afraid of settling accounts after the autumn, but Yu Xiang's faction felt that they were angry, and felt that the end of Yu Xiang had come, and Yang Shao and their gang would not let go of this good opportunity to humiliate Xue Shao.

Full Spring Pavilion, Spring Full Pavilion, Yang Shao laughed loudly

Although Xue Shao is still an official of the imperial court, he is trembling, walking on thin ice, sleeping unsteadily, and waking up in the middle of the night by nightmares, yes, these days are very low-key. Even if he is low-key, how could Yang Shao let him go, after Xue Shao received Yang Shao's invitation to the banquet, although he was reluctant, he didn't dare not come, he didn't dare to offend these old men, he was afraid that when the autumn queen settled the account, they would come to the ground, Xue Shao only hoped to exchange for a little vitality for the future by admitting himself.

As soon as he entered the room, Yang Shao pointed to the upper seat and said to Xue Shao: "Lord Xue, the upper seat is reserved for you, sit on it!" ”

Xue Shao nodded hurriedly and said, "Young Master Yang, you are our eldest brother, you should sit in this seat first." ”

"Oh~! Then I wasn't your big brother before? Aren't you sitting pretty steady? "Yang Shao is domineering.

Xue Shao hurriedly said: "It's the little brother who has no eyes, and the little brother is wrong!" I'll slap myself to my eldest brother, you admit your mistake. "Anyway, I really slapped myself.

Xue Shao snorted coldly and said, "Okay, okay!" It's rare that you have a heart, you find a place to sit! After saying that, he was unceremonious and sat down straight on the upper seat.

Xue Shao was very knowledgeable and sat down in a corner. His face was flushed by himself just now, and a group of Yanei saw it in their eyes, and they were extremely relieved.

At this time, a plate of fish came up on the table, and everyone just looked at the plate of fish, and no one made a sound.

Xue Shao waited for a long time, but he didn't see any other dishes, but he didn't dare to ask, he saw everyone looking at him, he felt a little inexplicable, and he didn't know what to do.

I heard a group of yamen say in unison: "Fish have thorns!" ”

Xue Shao understood what was going on, and hurriedly said with a smile on his face: "Yes, the fish has thorns, and I have them, don't I pick the thorns and there will be no thorns, no matter how prickly the fish is, after passing through my hands, I guarantee that he will become thornless!" ”

After that, he picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece, first picked a thorn for Yang Shao, and then picked a thorn for everyone present, until the end, a piece was clamped for each person, but unexpectedly, Major General Yang pushed the plate in front of him and shouted: "Mom. It's ruined, the thorns are picked, the fish are cold, fishy and smelly! Appetite, old. Don't eat it, brother, go! ”

The other Yanei frowned and glanced at Xue Shao, and together they came out, leaving Xue Shao alone.

Xue Shao looked at the fish and meat on everyone's plate, and didn't have to sneer, for a while, in the sky and underground, it is conceivable that if the accounts are settled in the autumn in the future, these grandsons will definitely fall into the ground.

Back at home, he secretly took the housekeeper Cao Qi, and the next morning, as soon as the gate of the capital opened, he took a carriage and galloped towards Henan.

Now in the capital, I can't stay any longer.

...

Besides, Yu Xiang, since returning to Anyang and burying the soldiers who died in the war, he raised pension silver, the New Guard killed 5,325 people, and almost all the 5,000 people in Lu Xiangsheng's department were killed in battle, and in the battle of Julu, there were more than 10,000 people during the war, and the pension silver needed 1 million taels of silver, which was a huge amount of money. Yu Xiang pondered how to raise the money.

At this time, Miss Xu San and Chen Siyi rushed to Anyang, and now Miss Xu San is eight months pregnant, with a huge belly, and rushed from Henan.

When Yu Xiang saw Miss Xu San, he was very distressed, so far away, risking extreme danger, running to the front line to find Yu Xiang, it was simply fatal. Originally, Yu Xiang wanted to borrow money from Miss Xu San, but seeing Miss Xu San like this, he couldn't open his mouth anyway.

On this day, Miss Xu San and Chen Siyi were in Yu Xiang's study, Chen Siyi helped Yu Xiang tidy up the table and tidy up the room, Miss Xu San accompanied Yu Xiang to chat with each other, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.

Miss Xu San asked coldly: "Xianggong! Are you still worried about the silver? ”

Yu Xiang was taken aback and hurriedly said, "Hmm! Oh, no! ”

Miss Xu San said with a smile: "More than one million taels of silver is not a small amount, this pension silver will be tight at once, I only have more than 30 taels of cash here, you can take it out and use it, if it is not enough, I will sell some more properties, but it will take some time to arrange the layout." ”

Yu Xiang shook his head resolutely and said: "Everyone is responsible for protecting the family and defending the country, this money must have a long-term mechanism, and there will be a lot of funds for the war in the future, even if you sell all your property, it will not be enough." This money should come out of the military spending, but at present, the financial situation is tight, and I can't come up with that much at once, so I have to think of a way. You can raise the fetus with peace of mind, don't think about other things, it's enough for me to think about business! You can give birth to our baby with peace of mind. After speaking, he put his ear on Miss Xu San's belly and listened to the movement of the child in her belly. doesn't care about his identity, and he is not afraid of Chen Siyi's jokes.

Miss Xu San didn't stop her, and when she saw Yu Xiang's focused, she smiled sweetly.
