Chapter 35 Struggle
Yang Chengying returned home angrily.
As soon as he entered the door and saw a chair, he raised his leg and kicked it away.
Then he sat down behind the table in a puff.
The reason why Yang Chengying was so angry was because his kindness did not exchange for the other party's kindness, and on the other hand, he was also a little angry.
His own careful thinking was easily seen through by these old fritters in the city, and it tasted uncomfortable.
Shang Kejin moved the kicked chair back to its place without saying a word.
"Your Excellency!"
Shang Kexi hurriedly stepped inside, "The sentry has reported that an unknown number of Ming troops have appeared in the north, and it seems that they are coming for us." β
"Oh? It came so fast. β
Yang Cheng gently tapped his fingers on the table, thinking about countermeasures.
He did not want to have a head-on conflict with the governor of Liaodong Yamen at this time.
Not only because of lack of strength, but also because of the lack of strength, will also be labeled as "committing chaos".
The governor of Liaodong, Yamen, was really angry.
In their eyes, Yang Chengying was not ordered to go to Liaoyang City to explain the situation, and forced the gentry in Jinzhou City to be cornered, and he had to be punished.
"What should I do?" Yang Chengying couldn't make up his mind.
The servant walked in with a cup of tea and placed it on the table.
Yang Chengying touched the teacup, was scalded, gasped, and subconsciously pinched his ears.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind.
Things are like this cup of hot tea, it's naΓ―ve not to burn your hands. And if you want the other party to give in, you must become this cup of hot tea, so that the other party subconsciously shrinks his hand.
Struggle for unity!
"Order, Xu Shang quickly gathered all the soldiers and horses and followed me out of the city."
"In addition, send someone to inform Qi Dazhuang. He was asked to recruit young and middle-aged people among the homeless people, go to the Great Black Mountain to station, and display a banner. β
"Then order Han Yunchao to hold the city gate, and surround Tianfu for me by the way."
Yang Chengying gave several orders in one breath, and after speaking, he took a long breath.
Shang Kexi asked in surprise, "Do you want ......?"
"Force the opponent to withdraw his troops!"
Yang Chengying replied in a deep voice.
At the same time, a Ming army marched over the field, forming a long queue.
The leader of the general was the famous general Jiang Bi, who had participated in the bloody battle of the Hunhe River and the defense of Liaoyang. He is in his forties this year, burly, and a member of the Western Military Department.
This time, he led an army of 5,000 and a cavalry of 500, with the purpose of escorting the Jinzhou gentry led by Tian Chonggui back to Jinzhou City, and preventing Yang Chengying from dividing their fields.
"General Jiang, walk through the grassland in front of you, which is the Great Black Mountain. After the Great Black Mountain, it is not far from Jinzhou City. β
Tian Chonggui said in a flattering tone, "If it is convenient for the general, can you go to the villain's house for a day, and the villain will do his best to be a landlord." β
Jiang Bi glanced at him, he was not as optimistic as him. As a group who has defended Liaoyang City, they can know that Yang Chengying's means are powerful, and the chances of winning are not great.
"Tian Gong's kindness, the general understands it. It's just that I was ordered by the governor to send you to Jinzhou City and then go back to restore your life, and I didn't have time to go to the house. Jiang Bi said.
"General Jiang is in such a hurry?"
Tian Chonggui thought about it, and suddenly exclaimed, "What if after General Jiang leaves, what should Yang Cheng do to poison us?" General Jiang can't ignore our lives or deaths. β
Jiang Bi said: "When the governor was leaving, he told him not to have a head-on conflict with Jin Zhouwei, so as not to affect the great cause of fighting against the slave chieftains. Therefore, this trip is just a reminder to Jin Zhouwei and let them not go too far, that's all. β
In fact, even if Wang Huazhen didn't advise, Jiang Bi didn't want to clash head-on with Yang Chengying. On the one hand, after all, the two sides have a friendship of working together to resist the enemy, and they can't just turn their faces; On the other hand, Jiang Bi estimated that he couldn't beat Yang Chengying.
If Yang Chengying was an ordinary person, he would not have done so many things in just a few months at Jinzhouwei. The combat effectiveness of his subordinates is estimated to be stronger than his own side under his training.
In case of defeat, not only will the overall situation be destroyed, but southern Liaoning will not be at peace from now on.
After hearing this, Tian Chonggui was anxious: "This, this, this...... Isn't it miserable for me to wait? As soon as the general leaves, he will definitely blame us. β
"Tian Gong, do you have any misunderstanding about the current situation? At present, there are homeless people everywhere, Yang Chengying just wants to find a place to settle the homeless people, and you can do it with a little patience, but now you are making such a fuss. β
Jiang Bi didn't want to talk too much about these, and was about to whip up the horse and change his command position.
A sentry Pegasus arrived.
"General, it's not good!" The sentinel reported on the horse, "Jinzhou Wei poured out, set up a formation in the area of the Great Black Mountain, and built a point platform. β
"What? What does Yang Chengying want to do? β
Jiang Bi frowned, building a starting platform means commanding the troops to fight.
In ancient times, it was not good to rely on the voice to convey the commander's orders. It is necessary to use flags or gongs and drums, and it is necessary to build a military platform to command from a high position.
Tian Chonggui on the side listened to this, and was secretly happy in his heart, don't you want to conflict with Yang Chengying? It's up to you now.
The sentinel hadn't left yet, and another sentinel arrived.
"General, an unknown number of displaced people are stationed on the Great Black Mountain, which seems to be detrimental to our army."
"It's going to be desperate with us."
Jiang Bi was shocked in his heart, isn't Yang Chengying afraid of taking on the charge of "committing chaos"?
As soon as the two sentinels left, another detective arrived.
"General, Jinzhou Wei has all landed in the city. Also, it is rumored that Jin Zhouwei surrounded the homes of all the big families in the city, with unclear intentions. β
Hearing this, Tian Chonggui couldn't laugh anymore: "He wants to kill them all." β
"Don't make a noise!" Jiang Bi scolded, "Yang Chengying didn't dare to turn his face with the imperial court yet, but he found out that the army was coming, so he prepared for the worst." β
Sure enough, it was the same as Jiang Bi guessed.
A moment later, an envoy sent by Yang Chengying arrived in front of Jiang Bi and told Jiang Bi that he wanted to talk to him in front of the battle.
Jiang Bi readily agreed.
Tian Chonggui said: "You can't go!" Yang Chengying wanted to force the general to leave, and it was possible to ...... Capture the general and force the army to retreat as a hostage. β
"You're unfounded! Let me tell you, Yang Chengying was able to be recognized by the governor of Liaodong at a young age, and he was the actual ruler of Jinzhou Wei! β
Jiang Bi said a little impatiently, "The actual commander of the Liaoyang Defense Battle was him. And me! He was also one of the members who listened to his command. β
Tian Chonggui was stunned.
No wonder he has been ignoring himself, it turns out to be an old acquaintance.
Jin Zhouwei and the Western Army faced each other, and the swords were tense.
However, Yang Chengying and Jiang Bi, who were the supreme commanders of the two armies, were smiling and reminiscing about the old days in front of the battle.
"General Jiang, don't come unharmed."
"General Lao Yang is worried, I'm fine."
"Compared with a few months ago, General Jiang has gained a lot of weight."
"As long as this person is old, it is inevitable that he will be blessed. When General Yang is my age, he will understand. β
Both laughed at the same time.
After laughing, Yang Chengying asked, "How to solve today's matter?" β
"Of course, according to the order of the governor of Liaodong, the yamen, first, the gentry must not be tortured again. Second, the fields must not be inspected, and everything can be restored to before. Third, I ask General Yang to follow me to Liaoyang to meet with Governor Wang. β
"What if I don't say yes?"
"General Yang, I'm afraid I can't help you in this matter."
The smile on Jiang Bi's face was even stronger.
