Volume 1 Chapter 867 See you before the battle

"Li Bingxian, please get on the boat!"

When the middle-aged man heard this, he lifted the hem of his official robe and climbed the rope ladder to get on the boat.

That's right, because Fukubune is a sea ship, it is extremely tall and can only be climbed and down by a rope ladder.

Li Lin got on the boat, saw Xu He arched his hand and said: "Donkey, the lower officials got the news that the Jingshi was surrounded, and hurriedly organized the manpower, and rushed over from the sea in the starry night, fortunately, it was not too late!" ”

When Xu He heard this, he understood why the other party was so much faster than the rear army, it turned out that they got on the ship from Denglai, got off the ship after arriving in Tianjin by sea, and then came over.

"Li Bingxian is hard, how many soldiers and horses are still in Beijing from the Shandong Capital Division?"

Li Lin said: "I received the imperial decree before departure, so I immediately contacted the surrounding soldiers and roads, and later when I landed in Tianjin, according to the Tanmalai report, more than 20,000 people have passed Cangzhou, counting the footsteps, they should have arrived near Qingxian." ”

Qingxian is in the middle of Cangzhou and Tianjin, that is to say, these people can only arrive in Zhangjiawan tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow.

"That's right!" Li Lin said: "The reason why we know that the horses are fighting the Tatars here is because we happened to meet Long Xiangwei on the way. ”

"Oh? What about He Yu and Zhou Bi? ”

"Zhou Baishi and He Qianhu and others are stationed on the periphery with troops, they say that in case of accidents, it is better for the cavalry to cruise, so as not to be trapped in the battle, so that the Tatars can also cast rat traps!"

Xu He nodded, this was also the result of his discussion with Zhou Bi, He Yu and others before the war.

In this way, Xu He knew in his heart that Tan Lun should have passed south with Li Lin to find the soldiers and horses of the Shandong Dusi.

Shandong's soldiers and horses did not arrive here as quickly as they imagined.

Everything was a mistake.

And those flags that the other side waved were nothing more than a bluff.

At this time, after statistics before the battle, there were only more than 100 firecrackers left in the middle of the road, and the two wings were even more miserable, originally there were more than 4,000 people each, but now there are more than 3,000 people left on the left wing, and the right wing is not even 3,000 people, which can be described as a huge loss.

To tell the truth, with the combat effectiveness of the Cao Army, if they had suffered such a big loss in other places, these people would have run away a long time ago.

But Xu He placed the battlefield in Zhangjiawan, which is surrounded by water on three sides, to prevent these people from escaping.

Of course, Mao Bao's visit to the front line also played a role in boosting morale.

If it weren't for this righteous brother to plug the gap, this side would have been flooded for thousands of miles, and he wouldn't have been able to wait for Li Lin to come to help.

When Li Lin learned that the troops in front of the battle were all Cao Jun who bullied and oppressed Cao Gong on weekdays and gave the local government a headache, he couldn't help but be shocked: "Donkey, Cao Jun is so capable of fighting?" I saw no less than a thousand corpses of Tatars in front of the battle, could it be that they were all committed by the Cao army? ”

Xu He nodded, he didn't take the credit alone, so he told Li Lin about Mao Bao personally coming to the front line to supervise the battle and sacrificing his life to plug the gap.

Li Lin sighed again and again: "The imperial court says every year that it will dismantle the Cao soldiers, but I didn't expect the Cao soldiers to be so brave. Now it is an eventful season, and it seems that these Cao soldiers can't be cut, if they are cut, they will be in trouble, if they are not laid off, the country will have something, and they can still stand up. ”

Xu He smiled, coincidentally, isn't this the reason why he persuaded Mao Bao to send troops?

I didn't expect that so soon, a civil official would stand up and speak for Mao Yuan and their Ningguo Marquis Mansion.

Xu He and Li Lin hurriedly said a few more words, and then arranged for the two hundred firecrackers brought by Li Lin to replenish the gap in the middle lane, and the others scattered to the two wings and handed them over to their unified command.

Li Lin is also a civil official who has never fought a war, and he knows that Xu He has experience, so of course he is happy to let Xu He lead the troops.

Just when Xu He ordered to go down to clean up the battlefield in the middle and pick up the guns of the dead musketeers to equip the others, a Tatar ran in front of the formation.

Soon the front line said: "The Tatar leader Wanhu will meet with the horses!" ”

Li Lin frowned when he heard this: "Donkey, be careful of deception!" ”

Xu He, the five scumbags of the battle, naturally didn't want to take risks in front, but everyone said that they only brought two guards each, and they spoke fifty steps apart, and he didn't go, which was a little cowardly.

After thinking about it, Xu He said to Li Lin: "I'll go and find out the reality of the other party!" By the way, drag on for a moment! ”

Li Lin wanted to persuade again, but Xu He was already ready to get off the boat.

Accompanying Xu He was the captain of Xinghu and Mao Bao's personal soldiers.

It's not that Brother Mao's personal captain can go to heaven and earth, but now, there is news about the reinforcements, and Brother Mao no longer needs to hide from him to prevent the army from being unstable.

In this case, letting Mao's Cao army send someone to go with him is also the proper meaning of the question.

Soon Xu He took the two of them to the front of the formation.

Fifty paces away on the opposite side, a young man in his twenties, with a delicate face, like a Han man, had been waiting for a long time.

The other party was very surprised when he saw Xu He wearing a four-clawed scarlet robe: "You are Wei Ting's concubine Xu He?" ”

The other party actually spoke fluent official dialect, which surprised Xu He: "Are you my answer?" ”

The young man on the other side laughed and said, "I didn't expect my name, you know?" ”

Xu He sneered: "It's not a good reputation!" ”

I replied disapprovingly: "Xu Juma, after two rounds of battle, you can see how powerful my Tatar warriors are?" ”

Xu He sneered: "It's really powerful, with cavalry and attack, two thousand people died in two battles, if you come a few more times, I'm afraid there won't be many people left, right?" ”

I replied and laughed on the horse: "It's obvious that you have lost more, how can I listen to your tone, as if I have failed." ”

Xu He was surprised: "You didn't lose, did you still win?" Why did you just retreat after winning? ”

Hearing this, my face suddenly turned cold: "Xu Yuma, we have always had dealings with Wei Ting, and the relationship is not bad, if it weren't for the disaster on the grassland this time, we wouldn't have gone south." ”

"But this time I entered the customs, but I found that your Wei army is getting weaker and weaker, you look at the guard post near your emperor's capital, how many of them are my enemies? Wherever the Tatar warriors go, they are devastated, I advise you not to do useless struggles, it is better to surrender to us, I promise to tell my father Khan, marry my princess of the steppe and my sister Nazhiji to you, when the time comes, wouldn't it be good for you to be the horse of our steppe? ”

Xu He sneered when he heard this: "Guo Jing is unwilling to do the position, do you think I am rare?" ”

I turned his head to look at Zhao Quan behind him: "Who is Guo Jing?" ”

Zhao Quan looked confused: "I don't know!" ”

I replied with a cold face and scolded: "Waste, if Meng En is here, he must know!" ”

Zhao Quan: "......"

I replied at this time and turned my head to look at Xu He, and said with a cold face: "Do you think that with your two thousand reinforcements, I can't do anything with you?" ”

Xu He smiled: "You can compete with me, don't worry, my reinforcements are far away from here, and they have just left Shandong!" You've got time to spend here with me! ”

I only thought he was talking the opposite, and said with a cold face: "Since you want to die, then fulfill you!" ”

After saying that, he clamped the horse's belly and turned the horse's head and went back.

Xinghu was stunned for a moment behind Xu He, and only then did he speak: "My lord, how can you tell the Tatars that our reinforcements are still far away?" This, this, this ......"

Xu He glanced at him and said: "Don't worry, the truth is false, the virtual is real, with Li Bingxian, I panicked!" ”

"Why?"

"The Dengzhou soldiers have arrived, will the soldiers of Wuding, Jinan, and Qinglai be far away? As long as this guy's brain doesn't twitch, he must be ready to intimidate me, and then secretly withdraw the army! ”
