Chapter 27: The Prison Army's Traitorous Army

Yang Ling turned around, only to see Huang Xiancheng, Jiang Bin and a county official hurriedly stepped forward, knelt down on the ground and said: "Xiaguan Jiming County Cheng Huang Qiyin, put the general Jiang Bin to all the adults."

General Yongning waved his hand and said, "Get up, what about Min Zhixian?" ”

As soon as he moved, the armor leaves on his body were stunned. This Yongning counselor general, Lord He, is about fifty years old, not tall, thin cheeks, a pair of eyes on Li Hei's face are extremely sharp, and with that bright armor, he has a high-ranking person's spirit of not being angry and arrogant.

Behind him was a group of well-dressed lieutenants, and there were two people standing on the left and on the right, the one on the left was in his early forties, with a white face and a slight beard, and he was a tall and peach civil official, full of bookish air, looking up and down at Huang Xiancheng, who was talking back with his head down.

Yang Ling glanced at his supplement, and learned from the knowledge obtained from the evil supplement that this person was a civil official from the fifth grade, and the Ming Dynasty really had a tradition of civilian officials controlling military power, and actually sent a civilian official from the fifth grade to supervise a general of the third grade.

The eunuch is the rarest creature to Yang Ling, so he looked at it a few times attentively, unlike the fake eunuchs in the movie who were full of flattering smiles and looked demonic, the Liu Gonggong in front of him was in his fifties, with a sharp and thin chin, and a pair of shrewd but gentle eyes, except for the loose skin and flesh that were relatively white and delicate, there was nothing special to see.

Huang Xiancheng, Jiang Bin and others stood up one after another, Huang Qiyin bowed and said: "My lord, Min County ordered that he was hit by the poisoned arrow of the Tartar, unconscious, and he was in danger.

The rumbling war drums and the noisy fighting sound under the city shook the sky, but the Ming army caught the Tartars off guard, and the follow-up army continued to rush out of the city.

When Gonggong Liu saw the Tatar army retreating, he smiled and said: "The general is brave, as soon as the army arrives, it will regain the Jiming Station, and the first battle will be won, this is a New Year's gift to the saint", listening to his voice, it was not very sharp, but the tone was indeed a little sissy.

General He smiled reservedly, waved his hand and said, "Gonggong Liu praised it." Someone came, passed the order to go, and ordered He Shijie, Wang Chengxian, and Zheng Yi'e to be stationed in the eastern, southern, and western cities, and Bi Chun and Sun Dazhong to chase and kill the enemy chieftains."

Hearing this, Imperial Envoy Ye hurriedly said: "The general is slow, our military is here, I don't know the enemy's situation, how can we lightly trade with the enemy?" The Tatars live on horses, and their ability to move is far beyond the reach of our army.

Jiang Bin listened and said hurriedly: "My lord, the enemy's position is in chaos, take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and it will definitely achieve miraculous results." The so-called soldiers are fast, if they wait for them to stabilize their positions and calmly arrange, it will take a lot of twists and turns."

Seeing that he was just a lower-level official, Imperial Envoy Ye couldn't help but sneer: "Jokes, soldiers, the murder weapons in the world, use them carefully!" For example, the method of using soldiers, galloping thousands of cars, thousands of leather cars, 100,000 armor, thousands of miles of food, said to spend a thousand gold, our big army to, the foothold is not stable, the supply of grain and grass is far behind, there is no reinforcement to rely on, there is an enemy situation in front of the unknown, so rash, is it for greed? ”

Although Jiang Bin also knew a little about military books, his knowledge was limited, and he was dazzled by what he said and couldn't answer. Although Yang Ling didn't understand military affairs, he could also see that he had clearly caught the Tartars off guard at the moment, and at this time, it would be difficult for the Tartars to organize an effective counterattack.

Moreover, the command system of the army in that era was originally underdeveloped, coupled with the poor organizational surname of the soldiers, and the surname of loyalty was even worse, and those ordinary soldiers fought almost all by a sharp spirit, so sometimes tens of thousands of horses defeated hundreds of thousands of troops, which was by no means a rhetoric, but a real thing.

An army may be defeated as soon as the banner falls, and it is very difficult to organize it again. Now the Tartars are obviously in the stage of rout, but this nerd is so cautious, not seeking merit, but seeking no fault, and using some military books and war strategies, it is simply unreasonable.

But although Imperial Envoy Ye is a civil official from the fifth grade, General He does not dare to ignore his opinion, supervising the army and supervising the army, is it only the responsibility of supervising the army, but actually has the final decision on the command of the army, he groaned for a while, and asked Jiang Bin: "How many enemy troops are there in the siege?" ”

Jiang Bin hurriedly said: "Lord Hui, only one hundred and ten Tartars came to disturb the city last night, but in the early morning of this day, nearly 3,000 people suddenly forcibly attacked the city, and nearly 1,000 enemy troops pulled two cannons.

Imperial Envoy Ye listened and said, "How? The enemy army is constantly increasing, and it is clear that the support is continuous, can you not be cautious? ”

General He hesitated for a moment, then looked back and said, "What does Gonggong Liu think?" ”

These two supervisors were temporarily arrested to respond to the situation, Ye Imperial Envoy came to Xuanfu to assess the performance of local officials because the three-year examination period had arrived, and Liu Gonggong was the palm print eunuch of the Bell and Drum Division in the Twenty-four Yamen of the Inner Palace, and was ordered to go out of Beijing to buy, but on the way back to Beijing, he was intercepted by an 800-mile expedited horse, and served as a supervisor with Ye Yue.

Although he had a low status, he was the person who could see the emperor from time to time, and General He did not dare to ignore his opinion. This father-in-law Liu has a humble position in the internal prison, although he is a prison soldier, he does not dare to be arrogant, and he is very cautious along the way, lest he show his cowardice.

After listening to the words of Imperial Envoy Ye, he had secretly calculated in his heart: "As soon as our army arrived, we brought back the Jiming Station, which can be described as a great achievement." If the army advances in a hurry and makes another contribution, it is certainly the icing on the cake, but if it is really as the imperial envoy Ye said, if the Tartars have another ambush and our army is frustrated, I have not fulfilled my responsibility to supervise the army, will I not be reprimanded by the saint? It's better to be careful."

Thinking of this, Gonggong Liu smiled slightly: "General He is brave, Imperial Envoy Ye is strategic, our family is blind, and I can't say any opinions, but the army has traveled a long distance, and the fatigue is not under the enemy.

Now General Zheng and General Song are leading their troops to attack the Tatar army from Zhuolu and Chicheng, and there is a guerrilla general Qi Guangsheng galloping to the aid of Erli and Banyi, and several large armies are coming together, and the Tatar army will undoubtedly be defeated, so we think it is better to be cautious."

Since the two supervisors had similar opinions, General He said: "Okay, the Chinese army listened to the order and ordered Bi Chun and Sun Dazhong to immediately collect their troops and station them in front of the city gate to be on strict guard. ”

Yang Ling shook his head secretly when he heard this: "I'm not afraid of enemies like tigers, I'm afraid of generals like pigs, it's obviously a good time to be one-sided, and it's a pity that a scholar and a "our family" talk nonsense, and they are actually let go in vain."

General He said: "Huang County Cheng and Jiang Jiang accompanied the official to inspect the four cities, well, where is the local post Cheng?" ”

Huang Xiancheng hurriedly said: "My lord, Ma Yicheng has died in battle!"

General He said: "Where is the county master's book?" ”

Huang County Cheng Shili said: "My lord, Lord Wang and Lord Min have already gone down to the city, presumably the army has come all the way to fill the road, and it is too late to arrive for a while. This is Master Yang, who is responsible for governing the civil affairs, and the general asks for orders."

General He glanced at Yang Ling, seeing that he was so young, he was slightly stunned, Huang Xiancheng saw it in his eyes, smiled and said: "My lord, Master Yang is young and promising, and he assists Lord Min in managing the Jiming Station, which is orderly and orderly, and adults can rest assured."

"Oh?" General He looked at Yang Ling's eyes, his grim face softened, and he pointed to him: "You, transfer all the affairs of the county government to Huang County, and from now on, temporarily take the post of Jiming County Yicheng, responsible for the liaison of military documents and the transportation of grain and grass." Also, Ben and the two prison lords will live in the post office tonight, you can arrange it."

Yang Ling hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes!" Obedience! ”

General He said to Imperial Envoy Ye, Gonggong Liu and Yan: "Two supervisors, please, let's go and see the situation of the city defense."

Huang Xiancheng hurriedly instructed Wang Bantou to accompany Yang Ling to take over the post office, and then left with Jiang Bin with the three adults, Yang Ling straightened his waist, and was a little dazed for a while. Han Youniang saw him standing there stunned, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Xianggong, as a post officer, has this official been promoted or demoted?" ”

Yang Ling shook his head and said, "It's dizzy!" ”

"Huh?" Han Youniang said nervously: "Xianggong was smashed just now, or was he shaken by that Jiang general?" Really, Xianggong's body is not good, and he still works so hard. Han Youniang said, glaring at Jiang Bin's back fiercely.

Yang Ling smiled bitterly: "No, I have never been a post officer, I don't know what to do, Huang Lao accompanied the adults to patrol the city, and there was no one to guide me."

Han Youniang said: "Then go and ask the king master, it's not yet noon, and there is still plenty of time to arrange accommodation for all the adults."

Yang Ling patted his head and said: "That's right, I'll go now, you go home first to rest, and go back when you're done with your husband, I'm really tired", the young lady responded, and Yang Ling and Wang Bantou hurriedly went down to the city.
