Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Forest Dark Grass Frightens the Wind, and the General Draws the Bow at Night (11
In fact, Wu Zhongyong was also afraid that he would go to talk about it alone, so he asked me to answer to the slaughter, but he was angry, and at this moment he saw Xia Mu's intention to speak, obviously he wanted to send him people, and he was very happy, but who knew that he was not happy, so he heard Xia Mu Dangchang come again: "Tomorrow morning, this governor will personally give a strong trip, father-in-law must not be cowardly, go to the camp alone, such a feat, this governor will definitely report to the court and reward you!" ”
As soon as he said this, Wu Zhongyong's face was extremely embarrassed. Li Rusong and the others were even more stunned and inexplicable, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so they could only hold back.
Seeing this, Li Chengliang shook his head and smiled, he could only open his mouth to reconcile, and said: "There is a cloud in the art of war: 'If you can make peace, you will fight, if you can't fight, you will defend, if you can't avoid it, if you can't avoid it, you will die.'" 'It is also reasonable for Lord Wu to act according to the will of the imperial court, then please first ask your lord to try to negotiate with Yuan Yu, if I am afraid of the prestige of my Heavenly Empire's heroic master, I will be cowardly, and I will be defeated without a fight, which is very good; If I don't die and blindly commit murder, we will take advantage of the situation and eradicate them in one fell swoop! ”
Hearing this, everyone present nodded yes.
Wu Zhongyong twitched his cheeks, and secretly scolded Li Chengliang for his old goods, this is more than ten years of bullying the border of the Ming Dynasty, just like his own back garden, he can be afraid of the prestige of the Great Tomorrow Dynasty, this is obviously a stinky bullshit.
Thinking that Wu Zhong couldn't coax himself with a secret way, he also laughed: "Even so, I'll give it a try!" In the past, Chu and Han fought for hegemony, and the cloth cloth Confucianism ate it, and he made a three-inch tongue, and in one fell swoop, he connected more than 70 cities in Qi State, helping Liu Bang to unify the foundation of the Han Dynasty. ”
When Li Chengliang heard this, he replied with a slight smile: "The adults have a heart, but the adults go alone, and the last general is really not at ease!" Saying that, Li Chengliang hurriedly looked at Xia Mu and asked for a few more guards for Wu Zhong.
Wu Zhongyong listened, the stone in his heart fell to the ground, and when he saw that Xia Mu agreed to give him thirty cavalry guards, he didn't say anything more, so he took his leave proudly.
After he walked away, Xia Mu smiled coldly: "What can't be done, what is not left to eat, and what is not left, and compares himself to Confucianism, it is really arrogant, I don't know what to say!" ”
Saying that, Xia Mu looked at the knife meteor behind him, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating, and ordered: "You escort that eunuch to negotiate with me tomorrow, be sure to carefully observe all the other party's actions, and tell me without omission when you come back." ”
Dao Meteor's closed eyes opened suddenly, nodded at Xia Mu, and then went out of the tent to select the soldiers to escort Wu Zhongyong.
Seeing this, Xia Mu got up from the tiger skin chair at this time, walked to the open space in the big tent, looked around at the generals, and said solemnly: "Soldiers, you must remember that this governor is right, for all the enemies who come to attack, delusional and peaceful talks are pure fart, this governor agreed that Wu Zhong used to appease the Yuan captive, in fact, it was just an opportunity to paralyze the Yuan captive." If those Yuan Lu can be persuaded in one fell swoop because of their three-inch tongues, why bother all the soldiers to come to this Liaodong in the dust? You must not have the slightest intention of luck in your hearts -- after you go down, you must have more exchanges with the officers and soldiers, consult more about the military situation, strive to know yourself and the enemy, have a strategy in mind, and actively prepare to kill the prisoners and make meritorious contributions! ”
"Subordinates obey!" All the generals under the tent responded loudly in unison.
On the second day, outside the city of Yiju, the yellow sand swept the sky, and the wasteland was boundless.
Xia Mu took the reins and whip handed over by Luo Kedi, flew onto the horse, and went straight out of the city of Yizhou. Li Chengliang, Gu Xian, and a group of pro-soldiers also jumped on their horses and followed him at a gallop.
A cloud of smoke and dust rose on the dry road.
At this time, outside the city of Yiju, 20,000 soldiers were ready to go, but none of them understood what this so-called military training meant.
While the soldiers were discussing with each other, the gate of Yizhou was wide open, Xia Mu took the lead and ran out of Yizhou, turned over and dismounted, looked at the noisy soldiers, and said a solemn word.
The soldiers gradually noticed that the Governor's face was not right, and they hurriedly fell silent, not daring to speak.
Xia Mu was not angry and arrogant, looked at the silent moving heads, and gave an order: "Take off the general's armor for me, go into battle shirtless!" ”
When the soldiers heard this, they looked at each other, but they didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly took off their armor and shivered in the cold wind.
"This ......" Li Chengliang saw this, and he had a lot of doubts in his heart, this Saibei is freezing in September, in case the soldiers are frozen, they will have a fart fight!
But looking at Xia Mu's majestic face, when he got to his mouth, he hurriedly swallowed it again.
At this time, Luo Kedi asked people to bring sandbags, each of which was carrying a weight of thirty kilograms, and Xia Mu had people carry them from the sand dunes outside the city overnight.
"Two bags of sand for one person, all tied to the calves with hemp rope, hurry up, deflated calf thing, so slow, the enemy will cut your head in a while!" Rokedi laughed and cursed as he inspected the soldiers.
After a while, 20,000 soldiers, all tied to heavy sandbags, Xia Mu finally showed a demonic smile, pointed at Yizhou City with a horsewhip in his hand, and shouted: "Thirty laps of cross-country long-distance running around the city, start!" ”
Luo Kedi hurriedly gave an order, and 20,000 soldiers shouted the number of one, two, three, four, and ran around the city of Yizhou.
The people of the city were curious, and they all said that this governor was a useless fellow, and he had never seen such training of troops since ancient times!
Li Chengliang returned to the house angrily, sat on the chair and sulked, secretly saying that this Xia Mu is just nonsense, what kind of army can be trained by this method!
The eldest son Li Rusong looked at his father's not very good-looking face on the side, and hurriedly wanted to leave this "land of right and wrong", Li Chengliang looked at the eldest son who was about to leave, his eyes were happy, and he hurriedly shouted: "Rusong, you go now, participate in that military training, Lao Tzu wants to see what kind of medicine is sold in this Ning Yuanbo gourd, is there really a way for this bullshit military training!" ”
"Ahh Daddy, isn't it! ”
"Bastard thing, I'm afraid of a bird, and I can't kill you, go quickly!"
Li Rusong watched his father rebel, did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly ran towards the military training army outside the city.
At this time, most of the soldiers were already lying on the ground tired, sweating like rain, and they had to follow the team and continue to run, because if anyone did not finish it, there would be no food to eat tonight.
Xia Mu stood on the tower of Yizhou City, looked at the dust under the city, smiled with satisfaction, took the tea handed by Luo Kedi on the side, and took a sip.
"Brother, can this method really train an iron army?" Luo Ke's enemy didn't count it in his heart, Xia Mu's method sounded strange, but he didn't know if it worked.
Xia Mu listened to Luo Kedi's questioning, didn't speak, just smiled.
At this time, on the mountain peak in the north outside the city of Yiju, the wind and sand swept the sky, and the people who blew could not open their eyes.
Behind a jutting boulder halfway up the mountain, there is a large ninja camp lurking in.
I saw that on the lookout platform outside the tent, Hattori Heiji was holding a clairvoyant mirror bought from the Portuguese, and looked intently at the castle of Uishu on the south side of the hillside, but he only saw that under the castle of Uishu, there was a vast dust between heaven and earth, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"What are these Ming soldiers doing?" Hattori Heiji put down the clairvoyant mirror and said to the deputy general Kameda Kojiro who was standing beside him, "Before the tenth month, General Konishi Yukinaga sent a secret order, let us be sure to eradicate Ning Yuanbo and promote the alliance with I, we did not hesitate to chase from Korea to Liaodong for this reason, but what the hell is this Xia Mu doing, he does not train the army, but lets the soldiers run around the city, what does this mean?" ”
"Yes! I don't understand, if that's the case, it seems too quiet," Kameda Kojiro muttered, "Ning Yuanbo is really a little scary!" ”
"What? Kameda-kun is a little scared? Hattori laughed mockingly, "We haven't started a war with the Ming soldiers yet!" How can you do this with such a mentality? ”
"Hattori-kun, it's not that my subordinates are afraid of facing death," Kameda Kojiro looked up and looked east, muttering, "What my subordinates are afraid of is that if they die in battle, who will take care of their gray-haired mother?" ”
"Oh...... Kameda-kun is really a great filial son! When Hattori Heiji heard this, he couldn't help but be in awe, "Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve, for the sake of the Japanese Empire, for His Majesty the Emperor, and for the sake of Toyotomi Taiko, we must swear to complete the task!" ”
"Yes, the subordinates must be the jade crushed of the Great Japanese Empire!" Kameda Kojiro hurried, nodded and bowed.
Hattori Heiji hurriedly stopped him and said, "We are the elite samurai who spread the national prestige of Great Japan to Middle-earth, and everything we do is to follow the will of Amaterasu, His Majesty the Emperor, and Taiko-sama—so we don't have to be ashamed of anyone, and we don't need to be worried. In the future, if we conquer the Ming Kingdom and realize the 'one family under heaven', then we will be the heroes of the Great Japanese Empire! ”
"Hattori-kun," Kojiro Kameda nodded yes.
Hattori Heiji pulled out his sword, looked at Yishu Castle, and said anxiously: "We can't wait here anymore!" Be proactive! So be it! Please give Kameda-kun an order to go down and gather all the samurai on the peak at once, and when night falls, we will pounce down the mountain again, go around to the back of the Ming soldiers' base camp, and give them a 'backyard fire' - let them be in a hurry, and they will be in a dilemma! ”
Kameda Kojiro hesitated for a moment, they had already alarmed the Ming army the day before, presumably the Ming army must be more vigilant, but thinking of the task of this trip, he finally gritted his teeth, put all the distractions behind him, responded loudly, and ran down the lookout to call the herald.
Hattori Heiji raised his sword, slashed at the fog-shrouded mountain, and said to himself coldly, "Look! Soldiers of the Ming Kingdom! We, the Japanese samurai, are coming! You're going to be beaten to death by us! ”
