Chapter 242: The Old Enemy
He Shixian looked Zhang Ke up and down, much stronger than a year ago, with a thick stubble on his chin, his scholarly spirit had long been gone, replaced by a general's self-confidence, and his majesty was not worse than his own old rivers and lakes. His eyes flashed with the brilliance of wisdom and confidence, as if he was bathing in a spring breeze.
He Shixian rubbed his rough hands and sighed with emotion: "Yongzhen, your famous uncle has been full of ears for more than a year. has become a general soldier, and he has been busy with his uncle for a lifetime, and he is a good boy! Uncle is happy, so happy! β
He Shixian's tone was choked, the words were blocked in his throat, and he couldn't speak, so he could only pat Zhang Ke's shoulder hard. A little tear flashed in the corner of his eyes, and the man who fought on the battlefield, even if he was stabbed a few times, did not shed tears. He Shixian couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head.
"When people are old, they will have no interest, and if I can watch you make contributions, my uncle will have no regrets, even if it is ......"
He Shixian wanted to continue, but Zhang Ke hurriedly stretched out his hand and stopped him.
"Uncle, the little nephew knows that you are in a difficult situation, but this is not here to serve! Let's join forces, and we can see what we want, and the old slaves are not a problem at all. β
He Shixian knew that Zhang Ke was comforting him, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face, and he sighed: "Yongzhen, ten old slaves can't stand up to a foolish official!" That's right...... How did you kid get here? β
He Shixian only remembered at this time that he had not heard the news that the soldiers of Yizhou had been transferred to the front line, even if Zhang Ke was transferred over, he would get a report on the journey of more than ten days along the way. But Zhang Ke suddenly had a small hat in green clothes, as if falling from the sky, and He Shixian's head was not enough.
"Yongzhen, tell Uncle SΓΉ quickly, did you come by yourself, or did you come with soldiers?"
"Hehe, what can you do without soldiers! The little nephew brought 3,000 elite soldiers, traveled day and night, and walked for five days before arriving. The centaurs are thirty miles away from Shenyang. β
He Shixian nodded, and suddenly his pupils shrank into a little essence.
"Five days! Impossible, impossible! He Shixian's head shook like a rattle.
"Uncle, nothing is impossible, some people take curves, and the little nephew just takes the straight road."
With a fluttering sentence, He Shixian couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
Those who are familiar with the Great Wall of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty know that at the location of the Liaohetao, the Great Wall has a V-shaped depression, and the army in the interior has to be within the Great Wall. It took a long detour to reach Liaoshen, and the distance was more than doubled.
This time, Zhang Ke went directly out of the Great Black Mountain, directly through the Liaohe Loop, and entered the Great Wall at Jingyuan Fort, and because of this, he was able to rush to Shenyang in five days.
Three-year-olds know that it's closer to the straight, but not everyone dares to walk. Liaohetao is the pasture of Mongolian Bahrain, Wuliangha and other departments, and Jiannu is also often haunted.
Plus the terrain is complex. The river network is dense, and wild beasts are frequent. Without adequate preparation, it is unknown whether one or two thousand people will come out alive if one or two thousand people go in.
He Shixian heard that Zhang Ke had arrived from Liaohetao. My heart was warm, and I couldn't stop crying.
"Yongzhen, for the sake of your uncle, you took a risk!"
Truly. Zhang Ke's journey was not smooth, it can be said that there were many dangers, and he hired Mongolians who were familiar with the terrain to lead the way. He promised the tribes along the way to buy their wool, and sprinkled a great deal of silver before he bought the road.
The real trouble is when crossing the Liao River, as spring approaches, the rivers in Guangning and other places have melted, and Shenyang is further north, and there is still a thick layer of ice on the Liao River, but the ice becomes loose and brittle, and the ice surface is wet and slippery. Thousands of troops have walked over it, and there is a great risk.
Zhang Ke was not a man who admitted defeat lightly, and he ordered all his soldiers to dismount, tie them with ropes, and cross the river together. Choose a thick surface of ice, set up a wide plank, and let the wagon pass over it.
While laying the plank, three soldiers fell into the ice cave, only one was rescued, and the remaining two disappeared into the cold river in full view, and each soldier's heart was heavy.
Zhang Ke didn't dare to risk the lives of his brothers, he could only wait.
God is merciful, but after nightfall, the cold wind blows, and the river freezes harder. The Yizhou soldiers crossed the river overnight, and after three hours of struggle, after paying the lives of two carriages and twelve soldiers, they finally crossed the Liao River.
The moment I crossed the river, there was a cracking sound from the ice in the river......
"Uncle, how can the little nephew take a little risk to compare to you, let's hurry up and discuss the countermeasures, I heard that Yang Lian ordered to attack Fushun."
At the mention of this, He Shixian's face was extremely dark, and he slapped his thigh fiercely.
"Yongzhen, I didn't agree to attack Fushun at the beginning, Yuan Yingtai and Yang Lian insisted on going their own way and pushed Yu Weiliang into the fire pit! Now Jiannu has besieged Fushun for almost a month, and the city is running out of ammunition and food, and Jiannu does not attack the city, so it is clear that Fushun is used as bait to fish!
According to me, it is long overdue to send someone to respond to Yu Weiliang and stick to Shenyang with all his might, but ...... Ay! β
He Shixian shook his head and sighed, very speechless.
"Uncle, Yang Lian and Yuan Yingtai are both scholarly and hard-headed, they regard the restoration of Fushun as the greatest feat, how can they give up lightly!"
"Then you can't lose Shenyang!" He Shixian said angrily: "Yang Lian actually asked me and Zhu Wanliang to lead the troops to rescue Fushun, and only You Shigong was left to guard Shenyang. If Jiannu takes advantage of the weakness and doesn't say anything else, his Yang Lian's brain will have to move! β
He Shixian said: "Yongzhen, you can be eloquent, just go and persuade Yang Lian to change his mind." β
"Uncle, the little nephew has that ability, and he won't come to see you in disguise!" Zhang Ke smiled bitterly: "Yang Lian went to Liaodong to be the governor, or thanks to me, how could he listen to the little nephew!" It's good that I don't go, if he sees me, I'm afraid I'll be even worse! β
"Hey, poor and sour!"
He Shixian was so angry that he slapped the table hard.
Zhang Ke rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Uncle, I think it's better to have a plan!" β
"Yongzhen, what can you do?"
"It's easy to say." Zhang Ke said with a smile: "Uncle, you still go to rescue Fushun, according to the estimate of the little nephew, Jiannu will definitely intercept and kill halfway, and then attack Shenyang." The little nephew led the troops behind his uncle, gave Jiannu a counter-encirclement, ate them in one bite, and then went to save his brother. β
"Good!"
He Shixian couldn't help but nodded, Jiannu can dig a pit, and they can also give back to him, so that Jiannu can suffer the consequences! For the combat effectiveness of the Yizhou soldiers, He Shixian is 100% trusted.
"This plan is wonderful, but ......" He Shixian was still a little embarrassed, and said: "Yongzhen, there is still trouble, even if we win, we will rescue Yu Weiliang again." But what about Yang Lian, will he pursue the crime of abandoning the city and abandoning the land and disobeying orders? β
"Hahaha, uncle, Yang Lian is the governor, and the little nephew also has Shang Fang's sword in his hand, it's a big deal, I'm still afraid of a scholar?"
Zhang Ke is not bragging, he is a saint, and he has the support of the inner court, it is good if he doesn't hack others, which civil official dares to touch him!
He Shixian's waist suddenly stiffened, and he laughed: "Just do what Yongzhen said!" β
β¦β¦
A three-zhang high flag flutters in the wind, and in the middle of the flag is a striking red, a golden dragon with teeth and claws, surrounded by white borders, embroidered with flame ornaments.
Under the banner, there were cavalrymen in their early 5,000s, sweeping in. The armor on the cavalry was also similar to the banner, bright red, and the collar and hem were white. Look at the dress and the flag, you don't need to ask about the red flag of the Tartars.
At the front of the group was a young man, in his early twenties, with a bearded face, a majestic physique, and sharp eyes, which smelled of an eagle looking at a wolf.
He is Dai Shan's eldest son, Yue Tuo, the owner of the Red Flag Banner...... Shuoto's brother who was caught by Zhang Ke!
Five days ago, there happened to be news that after the Ming Dynasty held a grand ceremony to sacrifice prisoners, Shuotuo and An Feiyangu, who were re-arrested, were all tied up at the entrance of the vegetable market and executed by Ling Chi!
The flesh on his body was cut off with a knife, his younger brother roared in despair, wailed in pain, and his bloody body seemed to be in front of him, Yue Tuo screamed and fainted directly.
After being rescued by his subordinates, Yue Tuo woke up, his eyes were straight, and there was no trace of tears in his eyes...... His tears flowed down his heart!
Yue Tuo is the eldest son of Daishan, young and ambitious, and looks infinitely beautiful. But just like the dragon son and grandson of the Ming Dynasty, everyone has a scripture that is difficult to read.
Yue Tuo lost his mother at a young age, his father Daishan and stepmother were very mean to their brothers, and the wild boar skin had to send Yue Tuo to Huang Taiji's biological mother to raise, and Yue Tuo and Huang Taiji grew up together.
The mother died early, having a father is like having no father, Yue Tuo matured quite early, his talent was revealed, and he was appointed by the old slave as the flag master with the red flag.
When dividing the two red flags with Dai Shan, Dai Shan deliberately assigned the poor people to Yue Tuo, and when he moved the capital to Hetuala, because Yue Tuo's mansion was better than his, Dai Shan still wanted to snatch it, and when his father arrived at this, it was also the best!
Yue Tuo and Dai Shan seem to be father and son, but in fact there are many estrangements, and his closest person is his brother Shuo Tuo!
But the brother became a prisoner in Fengjibao, Yue Tuo almost went crazy, he sprinkled all his anger on Dai Shan, in his opinion, it was obvious that Dai Shan did not work hard to rescue, so that the brother was captured.
He rushed to the gate of Dai Shan's mansion with a knife, scolded, slashed countless guards, and almost staged a big scene of father and son, but fortunately the old slave stopped it in time......
Thinking of his brother's tragic death, Yue Tuo was almost mad, if he didn't leak, he would explode.
"Second brother, watching from the sky, Brother will definitely take revenge on you!" Yue Tuo looked up at the sky and prayed secretly.
"Qi Qi Baylor, there are traces of the Ming army twenty miles ahead, the number is about three thousand, look at the banner is the men and horses of He Shixian, the general soldier of Liaodong!"
Yue Tuo laughed wildly and said: "It's so good to come, He Shixian is known as the first fierce general in Liaodong, kill him, and Shenyang will be broken without attack." Warriors, with Benbel killing the dogs!! β
Jiannu's cavalry roared, and a whirlwind rushed towards He Shixian's men.
Almost at the same time, there was a night of running away in front of Zhang Ke.
"My lord, we have the red flag of Jiannu and are coming soon."
Inlaid with red flags!
Zhang Ke laughed loudly: "It seems that it is an old enemy, brothers, let us teach Jiannu another bloody lesson!" (To be continued!)
