Chapter 216: Qiu Luan Dispatches Troops

Qi Jiguang picked up his pen and wrote the word "war" and simply asked questions.

"How to break through this battle?"

Xiao Feng let go of all his emotions and looked at the word "war" intently, all kinds of thoughts gradually appeared in his mind, becoming clearer and clearer, but he hesitated for a long time this time before he spoke.

"The left side of the word 'war' is a single and double mouth, this is a sign of strife, I am afraid that there will be a dispute between the two of us when we break through, which is not a good sign. If that happens, will you follow my wishes? ”

Qi Jiguang was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and said firmly,

"For the sake of the general, make a decision at the right time, and should not be controlled by others. But if it is what Brother Xiao said, as long as it does not endanger the lives of all soldiers, the brothers will all obey! ”

Xiao Feng nodded and smiled: "It's not a loss to have the style of a famous general!" He also agreed with me in advance not to endanger the lives of all soldiers. ”

Qi Jiguang's face flushed: "If it is my brother's life, I can give it to Brother Xiao at any time, and I can die for Brother Xiao at any time, but how can I be in danger because of my personal relationship." ”

Xiao Feng stared at his face and said in an accentuated tone: "This is what you promised me, as long as it doesn't endanger the lives of all the soldiers and there is a dispute, everything will listen to me!" ”

Qi Jiguang felt that what he spoke just now was a little heavy, and he was regretting it a little, and when he heard this, he hurriedly expressed his position.

"I can swear that I will never go back!"

Xiao Feng breathed a sigh of relief, ignored him anymore, and continued to look at the word "war".

"There is a soldier on the right side of the word 'war', which is a sign of battle, and it can be rushed out in this direction. There is a lack of one inside and bottom on the left side, and there is no soil under the field, so after rushing out, rush out along the soilless road, not inward. ”

Qi Jiguang was stunned: "You mean, after rushing out, follow the mountain road and rush in the direction of Gubeikou, not in the direction of Miyun City?" If the enemy army had set up an ambush at Gubeikou, wouldn't we have been flanked from front to back? ”

Xiao Feng put down the word apologetically: "I only know the reason for the word measurement, but I don't know why." If you ask me, I can't tell why. If you believe me, do so. ”

Qi Jiguang thought for a long time, and finally nodded: "I believe you." ”

Xiao Feng raised his head speechlessly and looked at the dark sky: "Pigeon, you should have flown to Taiyuan City a long time ago, right?" ”

Qiu Luan walked in the middle of the team, with four guards in front of him, Miao, Tian, and Fan, each holding a telescope and looking into the distance, to ensure that he could retreat to the rear of the enemy as soon as he found the enemy.

"Why do I always feel like I've been fooled?" Qiu Luan muttered to himself.

Three days ago, Hu Zongxian suddenly came to visit and told him that Xiao Feng Feige had passed on the book, and asked him to join Qiu Luan and go to attack the Tatars outside the Gubei Pass.

Qiu Luan naturally refused, and he patted Hu Zongxian's shoulder with his heart.

"Lao Hu, we both defended Taiyuan and Datong, this is a meritorious service! If you go out of the city to fight, you will lose your life! Why did Xiao Feng think so? ”

Hu Zongxian told Qiu Luan mysteriously that Xiao Feng tested the words and found that there was a big advantage to take advantage of outside the Gubei Pass, and this good thing could not be cheapened by others, and he had to take care of his brother.

Qiu Luan hesitated, he did trust Xiao Feng very much, but he cherished his life even more. I heard that Gubeikou has been breached, and when I went there at this time, didn't I brave the sword mountain and the sea of fire?

"General Qiu, Brother Xiao said, Gubeikou missed, long live the anger. Now the Tatars may follow the line of Miyun City at any time to kill Huairou, Tongzhou and even the capital!

Guess who will be the first person to think of when the soldiers are in the city? ”

Qiu Luan was stunned for a moment, and said hesitantly: "Although Gubeikou also belongs to the Xuanda defense line, it has its own guards, and it is not the responsibility of my Datong general army, and I will not be blamed for the ...... on my head."

Hu Zongxian took out a piece of paper with the cabinet seal of the imperial court printed on it. This thing Qiu Luan knows, and it is the court record of the imperial court.

In the Ming Dynasty, there was a newspaper, which was external, mostly propaganda things that the imperial court wanted the people to see, and it would not be stamped with the cabinet seal, but with the seal of the department to which it belonged.

The court notes, however, are internal, which is actually equivalent to meeting minutes. That is, what happened during the last dynasty was recorded by a special person in case the cabinet or the emperor forgot to check it.

Because the court records are above board, different from the emperor's personal living records, the relevant officials can also ask the cabinet to provide a copy of the manuscript for reference if necessary.

This is a transcript of the court records, which records the minutes of a meeting held above the court on a given day.

Long live asked Xiao Feng, a scholar from Zhongshushe: "What doubts do Xiao Sheren have?" ”

Xiao Fenghui, a member of the Zhongshu House, returned to Long live: "I have no doubts, but I just think that Datong's location is important and it is the gateway to the capital." Now that General Qiu is guarding the town, I am afraid that Altan Khan may not dare to fight Datong. Then he can only take a detour to fight Gubeikou, if so, I don't know how General Qiu should deal with it? ”

Qiu Luan, the new chief soldier of Datong, replied: "I am too worried about people, if I fight Gubeikou, the soldiers should pass through Datong City, how can I not know the reason?" Naturally, they will send troops to block him, how can they let him go to Gubeikou? ”

Long live Dayue: "It is rare for Xiao She people to be able to ask such questions on the first day of listening to politics. Qiu Luan replied like a stream, and I was very pleased. ”

This court official is really conscientious, and has the speed of being single for 20 years, not only recording everyone's conversations word for word, but also recording "Long live the joy"!

How happy was it at the beginning, but I was afraid that after being sent to the city, I would be so angry when I saw this court record.

Xiao Feng reminded you at the beginning of your tenure that you were good, and you swore that you bragged, and as a result, you let the Tatars run from Datong to Gubeikou and hit Gubeikou until I was right under my nose!

What kind of sin is this? At worst, it's incompetence, and at worst, it's bullying! Are you electing a dismissal officer, or are you a copyist?

Qiu Luan immediately jumped up.

"Come on, order the soldiers and horses, and the soldiers and horses brought by Lord Hu will be reorganized, all the cavalry will go first, half of the elite infantry will be escorted to the grain and grass, and the remaining infantry will stick to Datong!"

In this way, Hu Zongxian and Qiu Luan rushed out of Datong with 15,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry, and went straight to Gubeikou.

Hearing Qiu Luan's muttering, Hu Zongxian smiled secretly in his heart, but his face still looked serious.

"General Qiu, Brother Xiao's Taoist skills are profound, and he has a deep friendship with his subordinates, so he will never let me and Brother Qiu be fooled.

To tell the truth, if it weren't for the deep friendship between Xia Guan and General Qiu, Brother Xiao might not have reminded General Qiu of the matter in the court! ”

Qiu Luan nodded worriedly, and suddenly a shout came from front of him and asked, "Who is it?" ”

Qiu Luan jumped up like a frightened bird, stretched out his hand to draw his knife in panic, and the people in front of him shouted:

"It's a scouting horse, and Tatar cavalry is found ahead!"

Qiu Luan was even more nervous, the big knife hung next to the saddle, and he didn't grasp it firmly after holding it twice.

"How much...... How many people!? ”

"General Yu, no more than three thousand cavalry, carrying a large number of slaves and carts, should be a convoy escorting the booty!"

Qiu Luan really jumped up this time.

"Are there any soldiers and horses in the rear?"

"The horses didn't find it, at least there were no soldiers and horses within twenty miles!"

Qiu Luan glanced at Hu Zongxian and motioned for you to speak. Hu Zongxian nodded, although he was a civilian official, he was more reliable in fighting than Qiu Luan.

"Send 3,000 cavalry, advance quickly, and cut off the route between the convoy and the Gubeikou. If you find that there are soldiers and horses coming in the direction of Gubeikou, you will fight immediately, and at the same time Pegasus will report! ”

"Yes!"

"Send five thousand cavalry, quickly ride around the front of the convoy, and block the convoy's route into the grassland! If there are soldiers and horses coming to help in the direction of the grassland, they will fight immediately, and at the same time, Pegasus will report! ”

"Yes!"

"The rest of the cavalry, according to the position reported by the horse, speed up, and meet the enemy before dark!"

"Yes!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, the convoy must be escorting slaves and property looted by the Tatars in the Gubeikou area, everyone should be careful not to kill slaves without horses when rushing to kill! After this battle, half of the escorted property was taken out to reward the whole army! ”

The army suddenly roared with a tsunami, and its morale was greatly boosted, and it was surrounded on three sides according to Hu Zongxian's arrangement. 33

Qiu Luan nodded again and again with satisfaction, but the last sentence made him feel very distressed, and then he thought about it again.

"Half of it left!"

Some people died, but not completely......
