Chapter 95 Choose to persevere
As soon as he entered the house, Yang Chengying smelled a strong smell of herbs.
Fang Zhenru was shirtless, lying quietly on the bed, with a bandage on his right chest and a big bag on his forehead.
It seems that the injury situation is not optimistic.
"What about the Patrolman's injuries? When can I wake up? ”
Yang Chengying looked at the military doctor standing aside.
"Back to the general's words, the Inspector suffered a serious knife wound on his body, and when he fell off his horse, he hit his head again."
The military doctor said helplessly, "When the patrol will wake up, the villain is not sure." ”
"Alright, you take good care of the Patrolman."
Even the military doctor had no choice, Yang Chengying felt that it was useless to stay here and wait, so he turned around and left the ward.
He called the general guarding Luangu Pass out of the house and asked, "What is the situation in the army?" ”
"Luanguguan is not a key location in the first place, and there are not many soldiers and horses. If it weren't for the perfunctory attack of the slave soldiers, it would have been impossible to hold it a long time ago. ”
The guard laughed awkwardly, a little embarrassed.
After all, when Yang Chengying came in, he saw that these Ming soldiers were all like beggars, with yellow faces and thin muscles.
Yang Chengying saw his thoughts and said with a smile: "You are also doing your best, if you want, you can go to Jinzhou with me." ”
"Thank you, General." The Keeper said excitedly.
Yang Chengying asked his subordinates to take out some of the dry food they had brought with him and handed them to the soldiers who were guarding the city, so that they could eat something.
At the same time, the post-gold blue flag camp is also lively.
Although several mid-level generals were killed or wounded, both Turg and Shuo were seriously wounded, and their morale suffered.
But they were still quite optimistic, and when they returned to Gaizhou, the generals gathered in front of the campfire, drank wine, and discussed the battle.
"It's really damn, I was almost shot by Yang Chengying."
Amin, who was wearing a bandage on his body, said with a self-deprecating meaning.
Shuo Zhen pointed to his neck that he had tied so well, "Erbele, I'm miserable." The doctor said that he could not ride a horse for half a month. ”
Turg drank vigorously and didn't answer the conversation.
Because he was the most faceless, he was captured by Yang Chengying.
If it weren't for the fact that Yang Chengying didn't want to have a hard fight with Houjin, he used him as bait again, and let Houjin divide his troops again in order to send troops to rescue him, and it is estimated that he would be caught in the Ming Dynasty.
"It's a pity, Yang Chengying doesn't have any soldiers and horses in his hands. If you don't take advantage of the lack of people to capture and kill him, it will be difficult to have another chance. ”
After Amin finished speaking, he poured a sip of wine.
"It's a pity, it is said that he accepted a large number of fleeing people in Jinzhou, and he got a part of the Ming soldiers, and there should be tens of thousands of elites."
Yue Zhen also sighed.
Tens of thousands of elites are no joke, especially since Houjin has clashed with him several times, and each time he has not gained the upper hand.
While the crowd was chatting, a sentry arrived on horseback.
"On the orders of the Great Khan."
The sentinel took out the secret order from the bamboo tube, "Erbeile takes the order." ”
Amin hurriedly got up, took the secret order, and looked at it with his back to everyone.
"Great!" Amin cried out with joy.
When all the generals heard this, they all looked at Amin.
Amin turned around and said with a smile, "The Great Khan heard that we had suffered a lot of losses, and scolded me for being a dog. ”
When the generals heard this, they laughed instead of being discouraged.
One of the things that the Great Khan hates the most, suffering!
What should I do if I suffer a loss?
Get it back!
Amin laughed and said, "Let's go south again and capture Yang Chengying!" ”
"Capture Yang Chengying!"
The generals raised their bowls and shouted loudly.
Because Fang Zhenru was seriously injured and could not move, Yang Chengying was forced to stay in Luangu Pass.
Hearing that the Houjin soldiers were heading south, he did not choose to leave, nor did he send people to transfer troops south, intending to use the soldiers and horses in his hands to deal with the Houjin soldiers.
Only send envoys to ask Golden State to provide grain and grass.
First, because Houjin did not dispatch a large number of troops, he could cope with it.
The second is that he brings the most elite soldiers, and he has this self-confidence.
Thirdly, and most importantly, the enemy must be kept out of the Golden State, or they will gain an inch.
Fortunately, Jiang Chaodong led the rout, and went around in the mountains to Luangu Pass.
Jiang Chaodong learned that the situation was urgent, and he didn't care about his position, and expressed his willingness to obey Yang Chengying's command.
On the periphery of Luangu Pass, Yang Chengying had already turned around several times, and from time to time asked the guards to make a mark on the ground.
"General Jiang, you arrange for two hundred defenders to come and cut down trees."
Yang Cheng instructed Jiang Chaodong, "In addition, arrange for another three hundred defenders to transport all the trees back to Luangu Pass for me." ”
On the premise of not confronting the Houjin soldiers in the field, it is undoubtedly the best choice to use catapults and other equipment to fight against the enemy's army.
Su Xiaojing was a little puzzled.
Jiang Chaodong was here just now, he didn't want to question Yang Chengying's decision, and waited for Jiang Chaodong to carry out the order, and came over:
"General, catapults in this era? Isn't it inappropriate? We have a Franc machine and a tiger squat cannon. ”
"The problem is that we don't have it now, the artillery we got from Fuzhou is of poor quality, so don't mess around."
Yang Chengying sighed helplessly.
If there is artillery, who wants to use a catapult that is gradually fading out of history.
However, as a defender, you can throw whatever you want, whether it is a stone or an enemy's corpse.
The only trouble is that it takes time to build a catapult.
Houjin will definitely not give this chance.
Just as they were discussing the details of the confrontation, bad news came.
"General, Lord Patrol's condition is not good."
"What's going on?"
Yang Chengying frowned and looked at Jiang Chaodong, who reported the news.
"I went to visit the Inspector, and I saw that the Inspector was hot all over and his breathing was getting weaker and weaker."
Jiang Chaodong said with a worried face: "I heard from the military doctor that Fang Xun's situation is not good. ”
Although Fang Zhenru is occasionally disliked, he is a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, and he is also a capable minister that people love and hate.
Jiang Chaodong was instructed to cut down trees on the mountain, and Yang Chengying went down the mountain as fast as possible.
A group of soldiers on the periphery of the ward saw their own commander coming and gave way.
The military doctor was engrossed in treating Fang Zhenru's wounds.
Yang Chengying saw that he was busy and waited silently.
Suddenly, I heard a faint voice: "Yang Chengying is here......"
"Fang Xun, you're awake."
Yang Chengying stepped forward quickly and squatted down in surprise.
"Brother Yang, I'm ...... I was very badly injured...... I'm afraid it won't work. ”
Fang Zhenru's face was pale and he said with difficulty.
"Fang Xun just rest assured to recuperate from his injuries, and leave the matter of dealing with the slave soldiers to me, you don't have to worry."
"Hey! I'm afraid I won't get better. The general can't stay here for me, so let's hurry back to Golden State. ”
These days, Fang Zhenru wakes up and sleeps, his brain is groggy, but when he is awake, he still understands his own situation.
also understands why Yang Chengying didn't leave.
Fang Zhenru, as a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, put life and death aside before coming to Liaodong, and could not cause Yang Chengying to have an accident for one person, causing Jinzhou Wei to also fall into the hands of the enemy.
"Don't think about it, I stayed here to keep the enemy out of Golden State, and I must not let them destroy our farmland."
Yang Chengying said sincerely.
Fang Zhenru smiled bitterly and nodded.
For the first time, I really met Yang Chengying.
