Chapter 55: Miscellaneous Reinforcements

"The lowly Zheng Guo was ordered by Lord Futai to go to the aid of Daling River with the general!"

"The last general, Liu Zeyi, led 200 soldiers from his department to come and receive the order!"

"The last general, Wang An, led 300 soldiers from the right guard to come to the aid of the general!"

"The last general, Ge Qing, led six hundred soldiers to receive the order!"

“……”

Qiu Hejia did not break his promise, he really gathered soldiers and horses for Shi Dayong. With the successive arrival of the transferred departments, Shi Dayong calculated that the soldiers and horses that Qiu Hejia transferred to him belonged to six different places.

Among them, the 500 soldiers led by Liu Zeyi and Wang An were not the border soldiers of the Liaodong military system, but the guards of the guards. Ge Qing, who led the most troops, was trained by the Jinzhou Regiment, and Zheng Guo led Qiu Hejia's guards. The other two groups together were less than 200 people, belonging to the remnants of the guest army that went north during the Apocalypse, and after the main force was annihilated that year, these people did not return to their hometowns, but stayed on the spot.

There are more than 1,200 soldiers and horses in the six divisions, except for Zheng Guobu, who is cavalry, and the remaining five are all infantry. Not only that, many soldiers did not even have cotton armor on their bodies, nor did they even have a decent weapon in their hands.

Shi Dayong was dumbfounded, but he could only accept it helplessly, because he knew that Qiu Hejia had done his best to transfer these 1,500 soldiers for himself, and he couldn't be too harsh on Qiu Hejia, and the old governor also had too much bitterness in his heart.

has promised to lead the troops to help, and the manly husband will not regret his words. Even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of you, you can only go on a hard time.

Although there are few soldiers and horses, the hearts of the people are there.

After settling the six troops and horses, Shi Dayong gave an order: "Xia Desheng and Li Yizhong's troops will go to battle with the generals." The cavalry battalion was temporarily led by Cao Bianjiao, and there was no need to go into battle. ”

Xia Desheng and Li Yizhong were originally Zu Dashou's generals, and when they heard that Shi Dayong was going to take them to aid Jinzhou, they were naturally obliged to prepare.

Cao Bianjiao was dissatisfied with Shi Dayong's order, he had heard that it was the main force of the Jin army surrounding Dalinghe City, and it was their slave chief Hong Tai who personally led the troops, and all the banners and sizes of Baylor came!

Xiao Cao was young and vigorous, and often heard his uncle say how powerful the chief of the Nanu was, how the Eight Banners were good at fighting, and when he heard it, he felt that his uncle was a little exaggerated, and he just wanted to have the opportunity to fight with Jiannu in the future, and now he was finally waiting for the opportunity, it was still a big scene, but Shi Dayong ordered him to lead the remnants of the cavalry battalion to stay at home and not fight, and he couldn't help but lose his temper on the spot.

"Didn't the general think that I Cao Bianjiao was young and unbearable? Will you mistake the general's big thing? There was a look of unwillingness on the young face.

"Xiao Cao is too careful, where would he have this thought, leaving you at home is for the wolf cavalry." Shi Dayong couldn't explain why he wanted to leave Cao Bianjiao behind, so he leaned on the wolf cavalry, hoping that Xiao Cao could understand his hard work.

Cao Bianjiao shook his head and said: "The armor is still small, and the wolf cavalry army can't form an army in a short time, in this case, why doesn't the general take Xiao Cao to the Daling River?" Why do you have to keep Xiaocao at home! ”

"Mr. Xiao Cao Qian, I went to help, I died for a lifetime, it was too dangerous, and it was kind to leave you at home." Guo Yi was a few years older than Cao Bianjiao, and he was kind enough to persuade him.

However, as soon as he heard this, Cao Bianjiao became even more angry, and said angrily: "How can I, Cao Bianjiao, be a person who is afraid of death!" The general is kind, Xiao Cao is heartfelt, but this is to help, Xiao Cao, as a Ming soldier, has no slack! Even if he dies, he sacrifices his life for the country and dies as he deserves! The eldest husband was born as a horse leather shroud, how can he be greedy for life and afraid of death! ”

"It's easy to die, but it's hard to survive. For the general, think about how to live, not die. ”

Shi Dayong has decided not to take Cao Bianjiao with him, so no matter what he says, he will not let go. Walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "I have decided not to take you there, no matter what you say, I can't change it." If you still obey my orders, go and train the wolf cavalry for me now, and if you don't obey my orders, I will transfer you away immediately!" ”

"General!"

Cao Bianjiao was anxious and angry, looking at Shi Dayong in a daze, wanting to see a trace of shaken on his face, but soon, he realized that there was no room for accommodation in this matter.

With a swallow in his throat, he choked and said, "General, take care, Xiao Cao is waiting for you to come back." He turned his head and walked away, never looking back again.

For a long time, Shi Dayong smiled bitterly, how could Cao Bianjiao really transfer him away, but it was really a last resort to go to help, and it was much more convenient to keep him in Jinzhou.

instructed Li Dashan: "All the people in the baggage camp plus the people who escaped back last time, no one is missing, and all of them will go with me to help." ”

Li Dashan was stunned: "General, these people will be afraid when they see Jiannu, what do they take them for?" ”

Shi Dayong said unhappily: "If you want to bring it, don't ask what it is." ”

Li Dashan hurriedly said: "Yes, the last general will go and gather people." ”

After half a pillar of incense, Li Dashan led the baggage camp and the people who fled back from the grain to gather, a total of 700 people.

The 500 cavalry of Xia Desheng and Li Yizhong also drove out of the battalion and gathered together with the six troops and horses, and after counting, a total of 2,500 people.

At this time, it was only three minutes later, and Shi Dayong ordered the stove to be opened in advance. After the soldiers had eaten their fill, Fang ordered them to leave the city.

…………

The news that the governor ordered the general Shi Dayong to lead his troops to aid Daling River spread in the morning, and the generals of Liaodong felt incredible. Although Shi Dayong fought with Jiannu under the city of Dalinghe not long ago, and achieved a record of more than 200 beheadings, it was a fluke, if it wasn't for Jiannu's inexplicable retreat, I am afraid that his head would have been cut off.

Now that his headquarters Songshan soldiers have long been disabled, I heard that most of the corpses have been transported back to the pass, and the only thing that his subordinates can use is the five hundred cavalry that Zushuai gave him, what will he do to help?

Subsequently, the news that the governor Yamen had transferred more than 1,000 troops to Shi Dayong's command came again, and this time, there was an uproar in Jinzhou City. The governor of Dudaoqiu is not confused, that is, if he really wants to send help, he should also transfer some Liaodong soldiers, how can those guards and regimental training soldiers be used, isn't this to Shi Dayong leading them to death?

They didn't want to think about it, if Governor Qiu could really transfer the Liaodong soldiers, why did he need to transfer some guards, regimental training, and even transfer his own personal guards out of Lu. This is not because the generals of Liaodong are domineering and do not listen to the tune.

How did the generals of Liaodong see that he had come to the aid of Daling River, Shi Dayong didn't have time to think about it, he only had one thing in his head now, and that was how to come back alive.

There were no officials to see him off, and there was no strong wine to send the heroism of the strong man, everything was carried out in silence.

Two thousand five hundred soldiers walked out of the city gate quietly, and everyone knew what they were going to do, and the team was desolate.

At the head of the city, Wu Xiang and Song Wei looked at Shi Bu's distant figure, sighed at the same time, glanced at each other, and silently walked down the city.

Inside the governor's yamen, Qiu Hejia looked at each other by the railing, and a sense of guilt arose.

Perhaps, their decision was wrong; Perhaps, because of his own thoughts, he buried Shi Dayong in vain.

However, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty and the emperor, even if you know that it is wrong, you have to do it.
