Chapter 196: Internal Response
One hundred and ninety-six chapters
Today's defeat is really unexpected.
I thought about it before, such a large mobile castle, it is impossible to fall apart with a few or even dozens of cannons, as long as the springboard is put on the wall, Chengdu Mansion will be broken! When the time comes, the king of Shu will be held in his hands, and he will have the capital to negotiate with the Han officials, and it is a big deal to let Chengdu out and we will return to Yongning...... But who knew that the Han dogs would hit the cattle in the tow truck first! When the cow died, the whole car was paralyzed and couldn't move, and the Han dogs blindly bombarded with cannons, and the eight oxen crossbows shot one after another!
Seeing that the warriors were going to die there, it should be the ancestor apparition, the cannon of the Han dogs exploded, and then all the cannon sounds stopped-well, Yu Chongming carefully observed after the battle, there were a total of seven cannons on the head of the city, only two or three zhang apart from each other, and they were arranged very tightly. The Eight Bull Crossbow was no longer fired, and after confirming with the herald beside him, at least a hundred and ten iron spears had been shot out just now - such a military heavy weapon, which was extremely expensive and not much use in normal times, would not have a lot of reserves, and even if the Han dogs were not all fired, it would be almost the same......
Yu Chongming smiled. Most of the warriors who rushed forward retreated safely, because there was a giant Lu bus blocking it, and today's battle loss was probably a little more than 2,000 people. Our Miao people (who have always been called Miao Man by the Ming Dynasty, and Lu'an also calls themselves Miao) are not like those useless Han dogs, the army will collapse before they die, and our warriors are not afraid of death! Today's defeat is worth it: the cannon defending the city is dumb, and there are no more spears left in the eight-bull crossbow, and tomorrow the city will be broken in one fell swoop! The Han dogs are burning the Lu bus, very good, this king wants to do the same, just to clear the attack route for tomorrow. King Hao waved his hand and sent a team of Yi soldiers to hold the oil tank to add fuel to the fire, although it was a little distressing to burn down the big killing weapon that took so much effort to build, but Ci is not in charge of the troops - as long as Chengdu Mansion is defeated, a huge and real strong city, where is the value of a wooden cart can be compared?
Because Shen Gang led the main force to protect nearby, and the new capital further north was also firmly controlled by Li Fang's tiger camp, the north gate of Chengdu was always open. In the afternoon of the same day, Shen Gang took a few horsemen to gallop into Chengdu Mansion and came straight to see Sun Jie. After seeing Shen Gang, Sun Jie went to find Lord Zhu, and in the evening, the governor's yamen held a banquet, and according to the subordinates, Lord Zhu Xieyuan wanted to set up a banquet to personally work the army.
said that it was the labor army, but there were not many people who went to the banquet, except for Lord Zhu himself, only Sun Jie, Shen Gang, and another masked man dressed as a guerrilla of the Ming army, and even the patrol press Liu Ziqi and Shen Jishan did not call it, let alone Lao Shun. Before entering the table, Sun Jie and Shen Gang habitually untied their sabers, and the masked man hesitated for a moment and was about to remove his waist knife, when Lord Zhu, who was greeted in person, stopped by a burst of laughter: "General Luo doesn't have to!" The old man knows that your habit is to never leave the knife. Sun Shuai and Vice Marshal Shen are both good men who can trust their lives, if their two friends and old men still can't believe it, won't they be secretly laughed at by you juniors? Where is the old man's old face going? Hahaha. ”
The masked man was stunned, his face was covered by a cloth towel and he couldn't see his expression, but his chest rose and fell violently a few times, obviously moved. hugged his fists heavily, didn't say anything, lowered his head and followed Lord Zhu into the seat. was about to take a seat at the end of the seat, but he didn't expect Zhu Xieyuan to signal him to sit next to him. Where did the masked man dare to sit, desperately excused himself, but in the end he was forced to be pressed by Sun Jie and Shen Gang in the second seat, Sun Jie sat on Zhu Xieyuan's right hand, and Shen Gang sat opposite Lord Zhu.
Seeing that the food and drinks were already ready, Zhu Xieyuan waved his hand and called the people down, and the masked man took off the cloth towel on his face...... With a dark face and a wide nose and deep eyes, it is actually a Miao man!
Sun Jie said in a deep voice: "My lord, let me officially introduce you, this is General Luo Ganxiang of Shuinan (now Shuiyan Yi Township, Xuyong County, Luzhou), and it can be regarded as an old man who has never met. However, General Luo and the kid's eldest brother Ma Qiancheng are friends of life and death, and with this, the kid can be trusted. ”
Without waiting for Zhu Xieyuan to answer, Luo Ganxiang stood up and saluted a few people with his fists, and said in a half-baked official dialect: "Brother Ma saved the lives of our whole village, I can't speak, but I never dare to forget my kindness." Brother Ma told us that he was handsome, and his brother was my own brother, so I didn't have much to say. Then he stammered again, and added, "Well, there's not much to say. ”
"Hahaha good! He's a good man! Manly, the bento should be like this, know each other in your heart, why bother talking. Zhu Xie Yuanlang praised.
Sun Jie said again: "The kid occasionally thought about it on the way to help, this time it was extravagant...... When the extravagant Chongming clan came to attack, he would definitely pull the Shui Nao Luo family, so after settling down in the city, he asked Brother Shen to contact him, but he didn't expect to be really found by him, which was also providential. ”
Zhu Xieyuan groaned: "Water brain Luo...... Is it the Lu clan of 'Lu Luman' recorded in the "History of the Song Dynasty"? ”
Luo Ganxiang replied: "Yes." During the Hongwu period, the Han surname that we changed after joining the imperial court was called Luo. ”
Sun Jie and Shen Gang were both tongue-in-cheek: "Adults are so knowledgeable!" ”
Zhu Xieyuan stroked his beard and smiled: "Well, the old man has indeed read a lot." But Gordon and your people are also amazing, fighting is not a problem, and you can even find good friends here! The ancients said, 'It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books', and I am not deceived. In this regard, the old man is not as good as you! Hahaha. ”
Sun Jie and Shen Gang were about to be modest for a few words, and Zhu Xieyuan asked again: "General Luo, how did General Ma save you, can you tell the old man about it?" ”
Luo Ganxiang replied: "Lord Zhu. When Banzhou Yang was in turmoil, we followed the imperial court to fight, but we were few and surrounded by Yang thieves. When he broke through, he fought so fiercely, so miserable, the big dad and many warriors died, and the remaining brothers also lost their strength, they couldn't run, and they couldn't go back to the mountains. Brother Ma brought people over, from behind, killed, Yang Thief's men and horses and Brother Ma killed, sister-in-law's Zhongzhou soldiers came, Yang Thief's soldiers were all killed and ran away, well, that's it. ”
With a "snap", Zhu Xieyuan slapped the table: "Shake your gut!" General Luo's description, the old man seems to have seen the heroism of the battlefield with his own eyes, and he said it well, it is a hundred times better than the flowery article, and the old man is full of blood when he hears it! Come, such heroic deeds are the most accompaniment to wine, let's float a big white first! ”
Seeing that Luo Ganxiang was still stunned and didn't understand what Master Zhu said, Sun Jie picked up the wine glass and compared, raised his head and drank it all.
After three rounds of drinking, Zhu Xieyuan said again: "General Luo, you are a straight man." The old man still has a question, and we have to explain it in person. You and General Ma are brothers, and General Ma and Guodong are brothers, so you won't fight him, this old man can understand. But you can lead the army to avoid it, why do you have to fight back? After finishing speaking, he looked at Luo Ganxiang with blazing eyes.
Where did Luo Ganxiang understand the etiquette of the Han people to avoid the gaze of the elders, and looked back at Zhu Xieyuan's gaze in a daze: "Extravagant allegiance is dead, extravagant Zhou is dead, Ah Jie has no birth, and Brother Luo should be inherited." Gao Chongming beat Brother Luo, and Brother Luo was killed. Extravagant Chongming taught us to fight the Han people together, and we won it. Among the Han people, there is the elder brother of the Sun family, a good man, let's not fight. Shuixi rebellion, not good. The water brain does not want to rebel. Brother Sun taught Brother Shen to tell us that Brother Luo should not be killed, and if you beat Brother Luo's Xuan Chongming, the Han people did not kill Brother Luo, so they didn't beat them. Let's play extravagance. Well, that's it. ”
Zhu Xieyuan's eyes were as wide as cow eggs, and he secretly wondered: "What kind of thing is it?" What kind of scolding and beating is this, what a mess this is......"
Seeing this, Sun Jie smiled and said, "My lord, let me explain." Extravagant allegiance to the main room gave birth to a son, extravagant Chongli, died early, and the main room also died. At that time, Shuixi Tusi An Guoheng's mother was Luo, and Luo had two adopted daughters, one named Ah Jie, and the other was called Pu Shu, so they all married to Hao Xiaozhong. Ah Jie is the luxury of the world, and the scolding is the continuation of the luxury of the world, and both of them took the Chinese name with their husband's surname. Extravagant Shitong had no children, and accepted the son of extravagant loyalty to his younger brother extravagant loyalty, that is, extravagant Chongming as his righteous son. The extravagant world continued to give birth to extravagant Zhou, whose clan name was Luo Ge. It stands to reason that if there is no heir, it should be extravagant to Chongzhou to inherit the position of Tusi. General Luo had a deep relationship with Pu Scolding, so he helped Luxury Chongzhou, and had a few fights with Luxury Chongming, and many clansmen died, and he had a blood feud. You know the rest of the matter, the imperial court ordered the two to strike the army, and the territory was divided into two, and then extravagant Zhou died, and General Luo and they all suspected that it was extravagant and secretly underground. These things were all unintentionally talked about by Brother Ma when he was drinking with the boy. Hao Chongming rebelled, and told all the tribes that the court would kill everyone, so General Luo was blinded. When the kid remembered this, he asked Lao Shen to go to General Luo, and asked him: Who killed Brother Luo, was he killed by our Han people, or was he extravagant Chongming? How can you help the enemy who killed his people to fight his brother? So General Luo decided to fight the enemy, afraid that the adults would not be able to believe it, so he came in person. ”
Luo Ganxiang nodded seriously: "Well, that's it." ”
But...... The gaze clearly revealed a kind of "This plus one equals two, why don't you stupid old man understand it?" Disdain.
Lord Zhu, who had been through the wind and waves, pretended not to see it, but instead showed a look of sudden realization, and praised in his mouth: "I see! The old man understands! General Luo rest assured, Brother Luo's grievances are all wrapped up in the old man...... As soon as he finished speaking, he felt that his feet were lightly kicked by Sun Jie.
Luo Ganxiang said gloomily: "Brother Luo is dead, he died at the age of ten. ”
Zhu Xieyuan was stunned: "That's General Luo!" The old man's favorite thing is a loyal man like you. ”
Sun Jie hurriedly said: "The kid thanked General Luo first. My lord, General Luo's clansmen, by the way, and several of General Luo's good friends were all deceived by extravagant Chongming. You see......"
Zhu Xieyuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and secretly said, "How many friends? This is a new force out of thin air all of a sudden! Hurriedly said: "No problem, it's all on the old man!" General Luo, go back and tell me what friends you have, the old man will teach people to write them down, and he will ask the court for you to take credit for them! ”
Now that we're done talking, let's drink......
Lord Zhu, who was in a big mood, was in a good mood, and after drinking a big wine, he actually did something that shocked everyone with the strength of the wine: he grabbed Luo Ganxiang, wanted to sleep with him, and fell asleep!
It was this move that completely subdued the simple Luo Ganxiang, and the defeat of extravagant Chongming was irretrievable.
