"Damn, it's the Ming army firearms again." At a distance of more than 300 steps from the western city wall, Amin watched the pursuing Qing soldiers fall off their horses in the sound of "bumper" gunfire, and shouted angrily: "These despicable and shameless Ming soldiers, relying on the power of firearms, are they capable of fighting like a man with Lao Tzu." ”

The entourage next to him didn't dare to say anything when they saw the thunderous Amin, and let him ride on the horse and scold his mother.

With Amin's roar, there was a "boom", and the heavy city gate slowly closed as the last Ming soldier entered.

Not to mention Amin, who was jumping on his feet, Pang Gang finally had a chance to look at the city after entering the city, the dusty road was dusty due to the large influx of cavalry, and the baggage soldiers who entered in advance were pulling the cart into the nearby shady place, and brought clean water for the mules and horses pulling the cart to drink, and dozens of military doctors in the team were busy treating the wounded soldiers, everything was implemented in an orderly manner under the command of their respective commanders.

Pang Gang didn't care about resting, ordered Wang Zhi to count the casualties and asked the cavalry, who had no task for the time being, to help the baggage soldiers and medical officers, and then took his own soldiers to the city wall.

After going up the city wall, they saw a lot of Korean officers and soldiers along the way, and when they saw the posture of Pang Gang and his party, they knew that this must be a great official from Shangguo, and they all saluted him respectfully.

After Pang Gang hurriedly came to the city wall, he saw that the west city wall was already full of riflemen, and looking from behind the battlement, the Qing soldiers at this time seemed to know that they were powerful, and retreated far away to a place of more than three hundred steps, and no longer dared to rush to the city wall as unscrupulously as before.

"Whew!"

Seeing that the Qing soldiers finally stopped attacking, Pang Gang let out a long sigh, the battle situation just now was very dangerous, if it wasn't for the riflemen on the city wall to suppress the pursuit of the Qing soldiers in time, his party didn't know how many people they would have to lose before they could come back, it seemed that they were a little too supportive. It is a big mistake to think that with the new style of rifle, you can ignore the elite cavalry of the Qing soldiers, you must know that before the advent of automatic weapons, the cavalry was still the protagonist of the battlefield with its high-speed mobility and sharp attacks, and how naïve it was to think that only these front-loading Mini rifles could be invincible in the world.

Just when Pang Gang was doing self-examination, there was a stirring in front of him, and Pang Gang looked up and saw a group of people rushing in front of him, led by two middle-aged people, a man and a woman.

The man was wearing a red dragon robe, his face was emaciated, at this moment his face had a faint joy, the golden dragon on the dragon robe was shining in the light of the setting sun, next to him was a middle-aged beauty who looked beautiful and about thirty years old, and behind them were dozens of people wearing red and yellow clothes, who seemed to be the appearance of the Korean minister, were hurrying towards Pang Gang.

I saw a man in his forties wearing blue clothes and a white beard standing behind them shouting in a sharp voice: "The lord of the Korean state has arrived with a virtuous concubine!" ”

When Pang Gang heard this, it turned out that the lord of North Korea couldn't wait for him to go over to meet him, so he personally ran over, and it seemed that he was really in a hurry. The lord of a country came to see him in person, but he couldn't help but give face, after all, although he was a subject of the Ming Dynasty, he was nominally a prince of the order, and his rank was much higher than his own.

Pang Gang took a few steps forward and arched his hand: "The commander of Qingzhou, the general of Dingyuan, and the general of the three states of Zhenshou East Road, Pang Gang has seen His Royal Highness!" ”

"General Pang doesn't have to be polite!" Li Liang saw a burly general in front of him wearing a mandarin duck battle jacket and chain mail bowing to him, and hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and said with a smile: "General Pang has traveled thousands of miles to help North Korea, this kind of high wind and bright festival is really admirable, if it weren't for the general coming to the aid of the widow in time, I am afraid that he and Concubine Xian would not have died." ”

"Your Highness has won the award, Daming and North Korea are friends and brothers with a strip of water, and it is natural for them to help each other and watch each other, so why should Your Highness be polite." For these clichés and empty words, Pang Gang has seen too much on TV in later generations, and he will come as soon as he opens his mouth.

However, the reason why empty words have been prevalent for so long must also have its usefulness, you see, the smiling appearance of the Korean lord and the more than a dozen ministers behind him at this time knows the power of this polite words.

The virtuous concubine standing next to Li Liang nodded secretly, although this general is a martial artist, but judging his speech and demeanor, he is quite polite, it seems that Xuezhu is a good destination with him. It turned out that when Park Shunyi came back to report last time, he also specifically mentioned the General Pang in Qingzhou, saying that Princess Jiayi is now living in the mansion of General Pang, which means that Her Royal Highness the princess has lived in the inner courtyard of General Pang. Well, you know

Although Concubine Xian agreed with her daughter to go to Daming for help last time, as a mother, her concern for her children is naturally incomparable to others, and she is always worried about whether her daughter will be bullied by others without her parents in Daming, and she is not used to eating habits. Although Park Shunyi had already reported to her that Princess Jiayi lived in the mansion of the Qingzhou commander, the general was a high-ranking military general of the Ming Dynasty, and he seemed to like Princess Jiayi very much, although he already had a wife, he would not treat her badly.

Having said that, Concubine Xian is still very concerned, and now she sees that this son-in-law personally led troops to help, and he is tall and tall, although his appearance cannot be said to be Yushu Linfeng, but he is also with good facial features and dignified appearance, but he is also worthy of his daughter, thinking of this, Concubine Xian looked at Pang Gang with a look in her eyes that her mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law and became more and more interesting.

Pang Gang also felt that the eyes of this virtuous concubine looked at him as if something was not quite right, this kind of kindness with a hint of hot gaze made Pang Gang scratch his head a little, of course he would not be so arrogant that he thought that as soon as he appeared a beautiful woman, he would cry and shout to throw himself into his arms, and he could enjoy this kind of gaze, probably for Li Xuezhu's sake.

After the two sides met and greeted for a while, Li Liang suggested that people lead the men and horses brought by Pang Gang to go down to rest first, recuperate, and wait for tomorrow to defend the city, Pang Gang thought about it and nodded in agreement, after all, he came from afar, and the sergeants just got off the boat to carry the supplies, and then forcibly marched here, and the body was already exhausted.

Seeing that the reinforcements would immediately withdraw from the Qing army as soon as they arrived, Li Liang was in a good mood, and he said with a smile: "General Pang immediately looked invincible as soon as he arrived at the Qing army, it can be seen that the Ming soldiers are really unstoppable, and the widow admires it. ”

Pang Gang also smiled: "I don't dare to ask for ears if I want to!" ”

"Okay, good, the general and the widow will go together!" Li Liang walked over and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation, Pang Gang also made a gesture of invitation, and the two sides walked down the city tower together.

The group arrived at Li Liang's temporary residence in Namsan Hanseong, which was a small courtyard with only a few houses sitting around.

Li Liang and his wife, Pang Gang and the ministers entered the courtyard located in the east, and after the two sides were seated, Li Liang, who was sitting on the main seat, looked at the surrounding ministers with a satisfied face, and couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

"Some time ago, these ministers also objected to the widow sending the princess to Daming to ask for reinforcements, but what about now, the reinforcements not only came, but also the widow's son-in-law came in person.

For Pang Gang, although Li Liang calls him a general on the surface, in fact, he considers himself a father-in-law in his heart, and he is very satisfied with Pang Gang's arrival so quickly, which also proves that his daughter's pillow wind blowing in his ears is still very successful.

After everyone sat down, their own maid stepped forward to serve tea, Li Liang took the teacup and drank two sips and said: "General Pang, you came to the aid of North Korea this time and rescued millions of people in North Korea. ”

"Don't dare to be, the last general is just doing his duty." Pang Gang shook his head and said: "But there are still tens of thousands of Qing soldiers besieging the city, and it is not the time to celebrate, so you should wait until all the Qing soldiers are driven out of North Korea." ”

"Brave and strategic, not arrogant or discouraged in victory, he is indeed a general!" Hearing Pang Gang say this, Li Liang was even more satisfied with this son-in-law, he raised his head and said to the hundreds of officials in the room: "Ladies and gentlemen, now that the Qing army is attacking the city fiercely, our army is powerless to resist, since General Pang has arrived, the widow intends to hand over the command of the soldiers and horses in the city to General Pang, how about you?" ”

As soon as Li Kun's words came out, everyone was shocked, can he hand over the command of the North Korean army to the generals of the Ming army?

I saw an old North Korean official wearing a red robe immediately stood up and said: "Your Highness, although the Ming Dynasty is the mother country of North Korea, there is no example of North Korea letting other countries unify their troops so far. ”

Li Liang was displeased when he heard this: "Why did Li Jushu say this, today's battle has proved that our soldiers alone are no longer able to resist the Qing army, since the mother country has come to help, then we should let the generals of the mother country lead our soldiers to fight against the Qing soldiers together, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

The official said without showing weakness: "Although the Ming Dynasty is my mother country, but North Korea, as a reading country, is it a little inappropriate to let the generals of other countries lead their own soldiers and horses?" As a judgment of Licao, Weichen believes that this matter needs to be considered in the long run. ”

Pang Gang on the side couldn't help but be secretly annoyed when he heard this, although he was not uncommon to be the leader of those tofu soldiers in North Korea, but anyone who was so denied was always a little uncomfortable.

"Ahem"

Just as Pang was about to speak, a North Korean official on the other side coughed a few times and began to speak
