Chapter 99: Li Wenzhong, Xu Da!
"Fifth Highness, I am here to apologize to you." The big man with a scar on his face took a large bowl of wine, signaled to Zhu Su, and poured it on the spot. "The previous incident was that my family's Jiujiang was not well guarded, so I taught you to suffer such a big ......" said and was about to slap Li Jinglong.
"Brother Bao'er, what are you doing!" Zhu Su hurriedly hugged the big man's hand. "What do you call me Your Highness! Just call me Little Five. Besides, Jiujiang is also enthusiastic, what does it have to do with him? Didn't he suffer too?"
This big man is Li Wenzhong, the commander of the Eastern Route Army who returned from the Northern Expedition, Lao Zhu's nephew, and a famous general.
He used to be Lao Zhu's righteous son, and he was called Bao'er because of his nickname. Therefore, Zhu Su and his brothers all called him Brother Bao'er.
"Why doesn't it have anything to do with him? If he hadn't fooled around and let that group of bare-faced family members guard Xiao Wu, how could those rebels have the opportunity to commit murder!" As he spoke, he patted Li Jinglong's head again and again, "You don't need to leave you a hundred battles of elite soldiers to protect your family, you have to use those hairy boys you trained yourself!" Those soldiers who accompany you in the house, can they be called soldiers?"
"Just three people can't stop it, and they even let people rob your fifth uncle and lose our family's face!"
"Daddy! Daddy!" Li Jinglong covered his head, but he didn't dare to hide, his cynical appearance was gone, and only his embarrassed face remained. "Son...... My son doesn't want to! The elite soldiers you left behind, and your sons stayed at home to protect grandpa."
"My son didn't know that the soldiers he trained were so useless......
It can only be said that he is worthy of the first generation of the Ming God of War. When Zhu Su read history in his previous life, he still thought that this product might be pure and pure playing Zhu Yunwen. Looking at his appearance now, I think this possibility should be unlikely......
"Don't blame Jiujiang. At that time, Jiujiang was in front of me." Zhu Su couldn't cry or laugh. If others might have Zhu Su suspected that it was a show, Li Wenzhong really showed no mercy in these few hits. For this matter, it is said that some time ago, Li Wenzhong specially asked Lao Zhu to ask for guilt, and was sent back by Lao Zhu. If Zhu Su hadn't stayed in the inner palace for the past few days, he would have come to apologize in person, and he wouldn't have been able to delay today.
Zhu Su was really worried that Li Jinglong would be directly beaten stupid.
It's easy to talk about it, so he grabbed Li Wenzhong. Li Jinglong was beaten with tears in his eyes, and looked at Zhu Su with a touched face: "Uncle wow, you are really a good person!"
This guy is really moved, next year he will be older than Zhu Su, but at this time, he is envious. It seems that Li Wenzhong has tortured this baby a lot these days......
"Brother Bao'er, the scar on your face ......" Zhu Di is the best friend of Li Wenzhong on weekdays, seeing that he has a new arrow scar on his face, he knows that the situation of the Eastern Route Army of the Northern Expedition must be extremely dangerous, and he can't wait to ask for details.
So Li Wenzhong sat down and told their brother the story of going all the way to Helin in the desert. They nearly lost their way in the desert, how the soldiers resisted the bad weather and the endless wolves, and how the scouts spotted the enemy. Speaking of the fact that they finally approached Helin, only to find that the Northern Yuan had gathered heavy troops, the eyes of this famous Ming general who had experienced a hundred battles were red.
….
"When we arrived at the Aruhun River, the Northern Yuan army gathered more and more. I fought on horseback, but I accidentally lost my horse, so I had to dismount and fight. Fortunately, Li Rong gave me the war horse, otherwise, I am afraid that I would have died on the banks of the Aruhun River." Li Wenzhong said.
He said it lightly, but the Zhu Su and Zhu Di brothers felt a golden iron horse aura rushing towards them. Even the commander had arrow marks on his face, and the horses were shot to death and he dismounted to fight, which shows how tragic the battle situation was at that time. Just like this, the Daming East Route Army was able to fight back, and finally forced the enemy to Chenghai, and captured tens of thousands of enemies.
If it weren't for the lack of military rations and the lack of strength in the rear, Li Wenzhong might have been able to withstand the disadvantage of the defeat of the Central Route Army, and only rely on a partial division to enter Helin, complete the battle plan that originally required the joint cooperation of the three route armies, and completely annihilate the Zongmiao Sheji of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in Helin.
This is a wise and courageous, but loyal and humble general.
"It was my improper command that caused Xuanning Marquis Cao Liangchen, and the commander made Zhou Xian, Chang Rong, and Zhang Yao all die in battle." Li Wenzhong tilted his neck
Drink a bowl of wine and slam it on the table. The tone couldn't stop regretting. "They are all the backbone of my Ming army, but they lost their lives because of my mistakes."
"I, Li Wenzhong, am sorry for them!"
"Brother Bao'er, it's not your fault......" Zhu Di opened his mouth to persuade him.
"Wen Zhong, you are also a general of a hundred battles, why don't you know that we are generals, and our own needs are like iron stones, and we regard death as home. Xuanning Hou's horse leather shroud is the best destination, why is Wen Zhong sighing here?"
A magnetic voice broke the tragic atmosphere of Li Wenzhong, Zhu Su and others. Zhu Su looked up and saw an elegant-looking middle-aged man holding a wine bottle in his hand, speaking to Li Wenzhong. Beside him, Xu Yungong, the little grandfather he had seen once, followed step by step, and when he saw Zhu Su, he lowered his head quite unnaturally.
"Xu Shuai!" Li Wenzhong wanted to stand up, but the man stretched out his hand and pressed it on his shoulder with a smile. "I've already handed over the talisman, so I don't need to use the name of the army!"
This person is the current military god of the Ming Dynasty, Xu Da, the Duke of Wei.
Zhu Su and the others hurriedly got up and saluted, and Xu Da returned the salute one by one, and even Zhu Di, who had been unhappy before, did not skip it. Zhu Su secretly admired: Xu Da, who is worthy of being famous in history, can still get a good death in a situation like the beginning of the Ming Dynasty with such a great achievement.
With this practice alone, it is far beyond the ability of other generals to compare.
When he saw Zhu Su, Xu Da's eyes flashed, and he quickly smiled: "The minister hasn't seen the Fifth Highness for several years, but he has grown so big."
"Inuzi Yungong was taught arithmetic by His Royal Highness, and he is also very respected by His Highness in the house. As a parent, you should bow to your Highness on behalf of your dog."
"Wei Guogong is polite." Zhu Su hurriedly waved his hand. "I am the same age as Grandpa Xu, and you and my family have always been friends. We are just learning from each other, and we can't say that we don't teach anything."
"His Royal Highness King Wu is humble. I am ashamed of your profound learning, and I should thank you for your teachings." By Xu Da's side, Xu Yungong also bowed down and thanked him. It's just that after all, he doesn't have Xu Da's skills, and his voice is a little dry.
"Brother Xu Shige is polite." Zhu Su hurriedly saluted. Xu Yungong straightened up and still stood behind Xu Da.
Xu Da observed his words and looks, and saw that Zhu Su really didn't seem to hold a grudge against Xu Yungong, Xu Da nodded secretly in his heart. He is used to being cautious, and naturally he doesn't want his children to bury mustard in the hearts of the Zhu family.
He turned his head and smiled at Zhu Su, "By the way, the minister is still in the mouth of the little girl, and I heard His Highness mention to her the 'three-stage blow, the method' of the fire gun."
"The minister dared to ask, I don't know where Your Highness got this method?"
