Before Wang Fuchen walked into the big tent, Jiang Hao was drinking with Jiang Xuan and his subordinate Yang Zhenwei.

Since the surrender of Jiannu, Jiang Jiu's mood has not been good, although the Qing court ostensibly asked him to supervise the military affairs of Datong, Xuanfu and other places, and he can be regarded as a feudal official, but he did not give him a knighthood.

Don't say that he is the same as Wu Sangui to be crowned king, and the princes are not on their turns.

Not only did he not be knighted, but Dolgon even summoned him to Beijing and admonished him.

This made Jiang Hao feel very aggrieved, they are also generals, why should Wu Sangui and them be crowned kings and dukes, no matter how bad they are, they can make a marquis, but he Jiang Hao can't take the turn of the third-class Jingqi Hanifan?

However, what made Jiang Hao even more aggrieved was that the surrendered army was reorganized into a green battalion.

The 20,000 troops in Datong Town and Xuanfu Town were reorganized into ten battalions, and Jiang Hao only led one of the pacesetter battalions.

Although Jiang Hao nominally has command and dispatch authority over the other nine battalions, the only thing that can actually command is the pacesetter battalion.

Jiang Hao didn't think about returning to the Ming Dynasty, but firstly, it was too far away, and secondly, Chongzhen's various measures in Jiangnan also made him scruples, and the result of returning to the Ming Dynasty might be ten times worse than now, didn't he see Gao Jie, Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing all let Chongzhen kill? Huang Degong made so much contribution in Xuzhou and was relieved of his military power.

"Alas, it's really impossible to live this day." Jiang Hao let out a long sigh.

"Brother, let's take a look." Jiang Xuan persuaded, "No matter how bad it is, it's better than Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing." ”

"yes." General Yang Zhenwei also said, "Gao Jie, Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo were wronged, and they made so many contributions to the Ming Dynasty, but they were slaughtered by Chongzhen, the dog emperor, and they were miserable." ”

"Yes." Jiang Hao said self-deprecatingly, "Right now, we have no other choice than to be a dog for the Qing court, the Ming Dynasty will not let us go, and the pseudo-shun and pseudo-shun can't spare us, there is no other way to go." ”

As he spoke, the curtain was lifted from the outside, and an armed man walked in.

When Jiang Hao and the three of them looked back, they saw that the face of the general was like white jade, his eyebrows were like lying silkworms, and his body was also tall.

"Harrier, why are you here? Quick, come and sit. Jiang Xuan quickly stood up and gave up his seat.

Wang Fuchen has two nicknames, one is a living Lu Bu and the other is a horse harrier, but few people call him living Lu Bu.

Jiang Hao also picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for Wang Fuchen personally, and said with a smile: "Fuchen, no matter what, we are all old brothers who were killed from Datong Town, and we can't have any shares in the future." ”

Wang Fuchen hurriedly took the wine glass with both hands: "The military gate is serious. ”

"Hey, what kind of military gate is not a military gate, there are only brothers here."

Jiang Hao raised the wine cup and bumped it lightly with Wang Fuchen, and said, "It's done." ”

Wang Fuchen's neck dried up after drinking, and he praised sincerely: "Xinghua Village, good wine." ”

Jiang Hao was about to persuade Wang Fuchen to eat dried meat, when the curtain was suddenly lifted again.

Immediately, a large group of people walked in, and when they looked at it urgently, it was Prince Zheng Zierharang who was at the head.

Jiang Hao was startled, quickly got up and flicked his sleeves, and knelt down on one knee to greet Jierharang: "Admiral Jiang Jiu, military affairs of Datong Xuanfu and other places, please say hello to the prince." ”

Jiang Xuan, Yang Zhenwei and Wang Fuchen also hurriedly knelt on the ground to say goodbye.

Zilharang hummed softly from his nostrils, waved his hand, and said, "Get up." ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang." Jiang Hao thanked him, got up and stood on one side tremblingly.

Zilharang didn't pay any attention to Jiang Jiu, but walked straight to Wang Fuchen.

"You are Wang Fuchen, who is known as 'Living Lu Bu' and 'Ma Harrier'? Sure enough, he looks like a talent. ”

Zilharang's eyes showed undisguised appreciation, and he said with a smile: "This king heard that you are very good at kung fu immediately, I wonder if you can demonstrate it on the spot?" ”

"Why not." Wang Fuchen suddenly perked up when he heard this.

Because he had a hunch that a broad avenue had been presented in front of him, if he hugged Prince Zheng's thigh, wouldn't it be a hundred times better than Jiang Hao?

Jiang Hao had a melancholy look on his face.

This is clearly digging into his corner.

But Jiang Jiu was powerless to stop it.

Zilharang immediately ordered a good horse to be brought in.

He also asked the green battalion soldiers in Jiang Jiu's camp to light torches.

Then in front of everyone, Wang Fuchen turned over and showed his riding and archery skills.

I have to say that Wang Fuchen's riding and archery skills are really good, not only can he pull a stone hard bow on horseback, but he can also shoot arrows within 30 steps, and he can hit 8 shots out of 10 steps outside 50 steps.

You must know that this is on top of a galloping war horse, not standing in place to shoot.

After performing the riding and archery kung fu, Wang Fuchen showed off the slashing kung fu on the horse.

I saw where the war horse passed, the horse chopping knife in Wang Fuchen's hand danced like snow practice, and the heads of the scarecrows on both sides rolled to the ground, if this was a real battlefield, at least twenty people would be killed at this moment, which was really good.

"Good!" Zilharang couldn't help but praise, "I thought that the stories in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms were all made up, how could it be that Lu Bu and other fierce generals in the world, but today I saw you Wang Fuchen, and this king finally believed that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms did not deceive people, there are really fierce generals like Lu Bu in the world, and your Wang Fuchen is Lu Bu today!" ”

"The last general would not dare to be the prince so ridiculously praised." Wang Fuchen is modest on the surface, but he is extremely proud in his heart.

"This king is not falsely praised, this is the case, you are today's Lu Bu." As soon as Ji'er Harang's words came out, Wang Fuchen had a new nickname, now Lu Bu.

Jierharang turned his head to Jiang Hao and said, "Jiang Hao, quickly gather the Datong camps." ”

"Now?" Jiang Hao was stunned when he heard this, now is the ugly early hour in the second half of the night, at this time, the drums are gathered, don't let us sleep?

"Yes, now." Zilharang said solemnly.

"The military situation is urgent, and we must hurry."

"Huh!" Jiang Hao had no choice but to order the army to be summoned.

Soon, the five green battalions of Datong Town were summoned.

A quarter of an hour later, in addition to Wang Fuchen's battalion, the other four battalions of 8,000 green battalion soldiers quietly entered the periphery of the Ming army's platform under the cover of night and began to work on earth.

……

The next day, Yan Yingyuan and Chen Mingyu climbed to the watchtower again early in the morning.

With the help of the telescope, Yan Yingyuan could easily see the four trenches that the Green Battalion was digging, because the Green Battalion was not digging underground tunnels, but open ones.

"Jiannu has become smarter." Chen Mingyu said.

"Learned trench tactics so quickly."

"There's nothing to worry about." Yan Yingyuan was stunned.

As early as when they were in Nanjing, they had already deduced it many times.

They have not only deduced trench warfare, but even deduced tunnel tactics.

But the final result is the same, as long as the logistics supply line of Dagukou is not cut off, Jiannu will never want to recapture Dagukou, not for a month, not for a year!

Chen Mingyu was still cautious and asked, "Wan Heng, do you want to let the artillery battalion use the tiger squat cannon to obstruct it?" ”

The new army, which followed Yan Yingyuan to Dagukou, had a brigade of infantry, plus a battalion of artillery, totaling 5,130 people, including nearly 6,000 medical soldiers.

Among them, the artillery battalion is 1080 people.

The artillery battalion has two field artillery and two tiger squat artillery generals.

One field gun (270 men) was armed with 10 4-inch field guns plus 90 mules and horses.

A Tiger Squat Cannon (270 people) is equipped with 30 5-inch Tiger Squat Cannons plus 60 mules and horses.

So far, the artillery battalion that came to Dagukou has not made much use of its power, and only fired 20 shells yesterday morning, and the charge was temporarily halved, and the Tiger Squat Cannon has not fired a single shot.

"Not yet." Yan Yingyuan shook his head and said, "It's not time to use the Tiger Squat Cannon yet." ”

Speaking of this, Yan Yingyuan probed again to the communication soldiers under Wangdou and said: "Pass the order, as long as the trench of Jiannu is dug into the outer trench of the platform, the sea water will be immediately diverted." ”

The signal corps immediately waved the command flag to the front gun.

……

"Horse harrier, this knife was handed down to this king by my father."

"This king will give it to you today, hoping that you can use this knife to make contributions to the Qing Dynasty."

Jilharang took out a treasure knife and handed the horse chopping knife inlaid with Dongzhu and precious stones to Wang Fuchen solemnly.

"Lord Wang, how does this work?" Wang Fuchen didn't dare to stretch out his hand to take it, and waved his hand again and again and said, "This knife is a family heirloom knife of Prince Zheng's mansion, and the last general will never dare to accept it." ”

"Hey, as the saying goes, pink gives beauties, and swords give heroes."

"Only a tiger general like you, an auxiliary minister, can be worthy of such a peerless sword."

As soon as Zilharang gave the sword in his hand, he said solemnly: "Next, otherwise this king will be angry." ”

"In that case, the last general will be ashamed." Wang Fuchen took the sword with both hands, and said solemnly, "The prince is so heavy on the end, it really makes the last general honestly afraid, and the last general has nothing to repay, only on the battlefield for the prince and for the Qing Dynasty to fight bravely to kill the enemy!" Although the liver and brain are smeared, there is no regret, and there is no fear even if the sword is a mountain and a sea of fire. ”

"Okay." Zilharang was overjoyed when he heard this, and this king was able to take his place.

At this time, Tun Qi came over to report: "Master, the trench has been dug through." ”

"Okay." Zilharang then said to the king's ministers, "Ministers, now it's time for you to play. ”

"Lord, just look at it." Wang Fuchen held his knife and said, "The last general will take down the platform in front of him." ”

After speaking, Wang Fuchen strode to the front of the formation, only to see two thousand pacesetters resting on the ground, and the other four battalions of green battalions in Datong Town dug a trench overnight, only Wang Fuchen marked these two thousand green battalion soldiers to recuperate overnight.

Seeing Wang Fuchen coming over, the two thousand green battalion soldiers who were originally sitting on the ground to rest got up one after another.

As a strong general, Wang Fuchen is still very popular with his subordinates, which can be seen from the eyes of the two thousand green battalion soldiers looking at him, these green battalion soldiers still trust him very much, and are willing to die with him.

Wang Fuchen also has a set, and from time to time he will stop and sort out the cotton armor for the green battalion soldier, or check the leather belt for the green battalion soldier, and the morale of the officers and soldiers of the whole battalion will gradually climb to the top.
