Chapter 742: False Qincha
Just cleaning up the battlefield took a day, and the so-called 100,000 troops of the second prince Urus outside the Great Wall lost nearly 40,000 in yesterday's battle, and the 60,000 remnants of the army withdrew far from the pass outside the Great Wall.
He knew that the remaining remnants of Urus could not be counted on, separated by a city wall, like the end of the world, before 100,000 people could not break through the city wall of 20,000 Ming army handles, now it is even more impossible, it is better to push the boat down the river and not to annoy Song Nan.
And Song Nan's purpose is actually to pick up Wang Yong and others, and look for Ye Fanggu's traces in the mountains after the Tartars retreated, since the Tartars did not take Ye Fanggu out to coerce themselves, it means that Ye Fanggu may not have been captured by the Tartars, or was captured but did not reveal his identity, or he had already died in battle, in short, Song Nan wanted to see people alive and dead to see corpses, and sent dozens of Ming army teams to search and find along the mountains.
After rummaging through all the mountains and meadows and almost confirming all the corpses, Ye Fanggu seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no sign of him. Song Nan was both a little desperate and a little lucky, with Ye Fanggu's skills, it was indeed possible to escape that day, but in terms of her temper, it was also possible to fight to death; She knows her importance, with her cleverness, it is unlikely that she will be captured by the Tartars, and she may choose to commit suicide at a critical time, which is what Song Nan is most worried about.
Song Nan didn't want the Tartar soldiers to really slaughter women and children to cook and eat, but the amount of food sent was naturally pitiful, only enough for these Tartar soldiers to boil gruel and drink, and they would not die of hunger.
As for Ma Ming's order for the soldiers to pee and spit in the grain sent up the mountain, the Tartar soldiers once thought it was poisonous food, and deliberately boiled a large pot of strange gruel to feed the horses, and only dared to eat it after the horses were unharmed, which was another small episode.
On the evening of the fifth day, news came from the direction of Yanchi that Yang Yiqing had arrived in Yanchi County, and Song Nan immediately ordered someone to inform Yang Yiqing not to come for the time being, in order to create the false impression that the imperial court envoy had arrived, Song Nan had to package Yang Yiqing; Fortunately, the costumes of the Jinyi guards were fancy enough, and they still retained a lot of honor guards when they went out on the expedition, so in the early morning of the next day, in the sound of drums, a team of dozens of gorgeous honor guards, surrounded by Yang Yiqing, who was wearing a new official uniform, rode a tall horse from under the noses of the Tartars and was welcomed into the camp by the soldiers of the Ming army.
After receiving the report, a stone fell to the ground in his heart, looking at this posture, it must be the arrival of the minister of the Ming army, the guard of honor, the leader, and the humble appearance of the generals of the Ming army, is not strange. Sure enough, as he expected, the emperors and ministers of the Ming Dynasty were still afraid of themselves, and even if they reached this point, they were still willing to make an alliance with themselves. The bald man has already thought about it, and after going back, he will not fight with the Ming Dynasty for the time being, first annex a few tribes that have been unable to take care of it in the east, and then come back to avenge the revenge of this war, let the Ming Dynasty be happy first, if he does not avenge this revenge in his lifetime, he will not be a man.
Yang Yiqing's guard of honor was welcomed into the camp, and after entering the camp, Song Nan was no longer polite, and immediately stopped and pulled Yang Yiqing into the big tent. Yang Yiqing was very helpless about Song Nan's sudden change in the past and back, he enjoyed the treatment of the minister and couldn't extricate himself, Song Nan bowed down to greet him one moment ago, and the next moment he sat on the main seat of the big tent and became his boss.
"Lord Yang, sit down, sit down, drink tea, drink tea." Song Nan smiled: "It's been hard all the way!" ”
Yang Yiqing bowed down and said: "The general is hard, I have heard the news of this battle in Guyuan, this battle is beautiful, and it shows the prestige of our Ming army; Xia Guan Zai Guyuan and Peng Yue Peng didn't sleep all night when they were excited. General Peng also thought about it, and he took a chance to give it to the adults. ”
Song Nan was surprised: "Really? Mr. Peng can compose poems, this is a talent. ”
Yang Yiqing said: "It's not a poem, it's just a few words after getting drunk, the old man thinks it's very appropriate." ”
Jiang Bin laughed and said, "Lord Yang, come and listen." ”
Yang Yiqing nodded and coughed twice: "The Great Wall is long. ”
Everyone was stunned, someone secretly laughed, Song Nan couldn't help but smile and nodded: "Yes, simplicity and nature return to the basics, but it is also a big truth, no need for too much rhetoric." ”
Yang Yiqing said again: "Tartar crying dad and calling mother." ”
"Good! This sentence is good, isn't it crying dad and calling mother? Jiang Bin applauded and praised, and the generals looked at him with disdain, looking at him not like a rhetoric, but as if he really thought it was good.
Song Nan's shoulders shook with a smile, and he said silently with his fingers: "Nian...... Read...... Read on. ”
Yang Yiqing solemnly groaned: "Whoever dares to cross the sword immediately, the only one is the general of Zhenguo." ”
As soon as these two sentences came out, the generals in the tent were stunned with their mouths half open, and Xu Tai shouted: "Okay! ”
The generals reacted and applauded like thunder.
"I didn't expect it, although it is nondescript, but Peng Zongbing's drunken work is majestic, who dares to slash immediately, only the general of Zhenguo. Isn't that so? The general of Zhenguo is here with a horizontal sword, and the hundreds of thousands of Tartar soldiers don't want to take advantage of it, only crying dad and calling mother. Yang Yiqing smiled.
Song Nan smacked his lips and said: "This is too much, this is not something I can do alone, if it weren't for the brothers working together, how could there be a victory in this battle?" ”
Yang Yiqing said with a smile: "Mo Humility, the main general is the backbone, that is the backbone of the army, and the battle of the army depends on the ability of the main general, otherwise it will not let the Tartar go free for a few months." From the moment you concluded that the Tartars would attack northward, I myself admired the five-body throw, and that day the Tartars feinted to attack Guyuan, I thought it was a mistake in your judgment, but it was my own plan to fall into the Tartars, and I was ashamed to think about it. ”
Song Nan smiled and said, "Mo Ti, if it weren't for you, Lord Yang, who was in charge of Guyuan, I wouldn't have dared to be so bold." Come on, come on, get down to business, serve tea and tea. ”
After everyone sat down in turn, Song Nan repeated the current shape again, Yang Yiqing didn't know much about the specific situation here at first, but at this moment he knew the whole story, and when he heard the words, he got up and bowed deeply to Song Nan and said: "Sure enough, I, Yang Yiqing, didn't see the wrong person, Lord Song is willing to stop the attack for hundreds of women and children, this is the real heart of the people and the people, in exchange for any person, he has already waved the army to attack." ”
Song Nan said: "Don't bring me a high hat, I just can't bear to see the Tartars killing in front of me and can't save them, I can't stand this frustration, so I thought of such a way." ”
Yang Yiqing groaned: "Has the general ever thought about the consequences of doing this, I can pretend to negotiate with the court, but this matter will definitely be attacked afterwards, I am thinking, if it is reported to the court, the court will also agree to negotiate peace, after all, both sides of this battle can not bear it." ”
Song Nan frowned and said: "I know that the imperial court will definitely agree to negotiate peace, but I don't want to do this, how can there be a reason to retreat without punishment after doing evil; Although my Ming Dynasty has also suffered heavy losses, this time is the best time to trample the Tatars into the heart of the mud. This time I will take advantage of this opportunity to fight beyond the Great Wall, recover the Hetao region, completely drive the Tatars out of the north of Yinshan, and solve the root cause of my Ming Dynasty's long-standing border troubles. This is 10,000 times better than the alliance under the city. ”
Yang Tinghe was surprised: "It turns out that you have such a grand ambition, which the old man must agree with, but I am worried that the imperial court will not agree." As far as I know, the war-weariness between the DPRK and China has been on the rise, the consumption in the northwest is huge, the state capitals have reduced their spending, and many major events have been suspended, which has triggered a chain effect. Many people have already written to the imperial court, and after driving out the Tartars, they will immediately make a truce, and some have even proposed an armistice with the Tartars. ”
Song Nan was stunned and said, "Is there such a thing?" ”
Yang Yiqing nodded and said: "How can I talk nonsense, although I am not as well-informed as Lord Song, but I still have a few friends in the court." ”
Song Nan slapped it on the table in front of him, and scolded angrily: "These things are short-sighted, why are foreign enemies not at ease?" The Tartars have come to rest and it is another catastrophe, and I will never agree to it. ”
Yang Yiqing sighed slightly and shook his head, Xu Tai said: "General, the current matter is solved first, let's slaughter the bald beast first, the army is here, let's follow the general to fight out, the court has not issued a truce, we can pretend not to know." ”
Song Nan nodded and said, "Very much, let's ignore these messy things first, let's solve the current matter first." Lord Yang, this time your duty is to make the bald man believe that you are here to negotiate peace, and after reaching an agreement with them and rescuing the people, I will attack him in a big way and break him into pieces. After that, only I will mediate, and I will take care of the present. You're going to have to play this show well. ”
Yang Yiqing arched his hand and said: "Don't worry, the general, it's over to the old man." ”
