Chapter 417

Don't look at Gao Di's body with several knives, the blood on his body flows, in fact, his injuries are not fatal, the Ming Dynasty is already the peak of armor, like the heavy armor that Gao Di is wearing, even if it is a horizontal knife equipped by the Ning Navy, it is impossible to break the armor with a knife, not to mention that the knives in the hands of these Guan Ning army generals are just ordinary Yanling knives.

However, although he couldn't inflict fatal damage on Gao Di, however, after more than a dozen knives, he was cut into a blur of flesh and blood, and he felt the coldness of despair on his body, the expression on Gao Di's face was completely frozen, and his eyes were so wide that the muscles on his face were hanging up, and the white ginseng general who stared at him with a knife hissed: "You...... You ......"

General Bai Shen said gloomily: "Gao Shuai, I'm sorry, we have to live!" ”

Gao Di pulled out the saber on his body, grabbed the knife with all his might, and scolded the generals directly: "Betrayal...... Traitor...... Traitor ......"

Poof!

A sharp spear came from Gaudí's stab, and the sharp spear pierced through his body, protruding bloodily from his chest, and Gaudí's cursing came to an abrupt end.

As the saying goes, three arrows are not as good as a knife, and three knives are not as good as a gun, in fact, the lethality of the spear is very good, but the problem is that the spear is very general when dealing with heavy armor and front armor, especially a slight knock can make the spear deviate from the target.

However, the effect of assassinating in the back is still good.

Gao Di turned his head with great difficulty, only to see Wu Chongming standing behind him with a smile, his smile even more terrifying than the roar of the devil.

Wu Chongming is Gaodi's Qingshan general, and he is also Wu Xiang's personal soldier.

The corners of Gao Di's mouth twitched a few times, as if he wanted to cry, and as if he wanted to laugh, he had always treated Wu Chongming as a confidant and treated him well, but now, Wu Chongming gave him a shot in Houbei, a fatal shot, which completely cut off his vitality!

"Anyone is qualified to call us traitors, but you Wu family members don't, never have!"

Wu Chongming's voice was a little flustered, and the mockery was overflowing: "It is your Wu family and ancestral family who sell a large amount of grain, iron, and cotton cloth to the old slaves, and it is your Wu family who does not save and bury the guest army again and again, and even provides Jiannu with information about the guest army. ”

Gao spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his words were a lot sharper: "I treat you well, but you are ......"

"You really treat us well! When our original general was killed in battle, and the whole army was beaten to pieces by Jiannu, it was you who contained our embers, when the people of Liaodong couldn't even eat enough wild vegetables, it was you who let us live a good life of eating and drinking, and when the guest army was hungry and cold, it was you who equipped us with the most sophisticated weapons, and let us become your most trusted force! ”

Wu Chongming roared: "But, we want to go home!" We want to recapture the homeland of Liaodong that was invaded by Jiannu, collect the bones of relatives who were slaughtered by Jiannu, reopen the long-barren countryside, and continue to thrive on the land opened up by our ancestors! We trust you and hope you can lead us back, but how do you do it? ”

Gaudí's eyes began to drift, and he couldn't say a word.

Although Wu Chongming's surname is Wu, in fact, he is not from Liaoxi, but from Liaodong, he is a personal soldier under Li Ruzhenhui, the third son of Li Chengliang, in the battle of Tieling, Tieling fell, he became a rout, was taken in by Wu Xiang, and later followed Gao Di, and was promoted to general because of his merits.

"You only care about drinking the blood of soldiers and making a fortune, but have you ever thought about expelling Jiannu and recovering Liaodong? You don't! Not only did you not think about it, but you also did everything possible to sabotage the great cause of recovering Liao, and now you have surrendered Jiannu, you are really not thin on us! Warlord leaders like you, who have not achieved enough and failed more than enough, should have died a long time ago! ”

Wu Chongming is a native of Liaodong, and he is a very skilled family, and he is even more welcome, very happy to take him in, and let him become a family. If you change to someone else, you may have been able to thank the Wu family for a long time, but Wu Chongming is different, he has never forgotten his coach Li Rusong, and he has not forgotten how his robe died, and hatred has accumulated in his heart for a full twenty years, and now it has finally completely exploded.

Wu Chongming roared and exerted a force, pulling the spear out of Gao Di's vest and bringing out a bloody arrow. He then waved his long knife, and Gao Di's head fell down with a thud, and those eyes were still staring at Wu Chongming, glaring at the boss!

Wu Chongming didn't care about this, lifted the head with one hand, looked at Gao Di's personal soldiers loudly and said: "I believe you have also seen that Jiannu is finished, and continuing to fight against the regent is a dead end!" Now that I have chopped this miscellaneous piece, it can be regarded as a small achievement, I plan to take his head to the regent, surrender to Cheng Shuai, and see if I can mix a small officer, it really can't be a small officer, it is okay to mix an auxiliary soldier, even if we let us return to our hometown, go back to Liaodong, and be a common man, whatever you want! What about you? What are your plans? ”

Gao Di was already dead, and the artillery of the Ning Navy came one after another, and he thought about a fart and surrendered directly.

Just when Lu Xiangsheng, Lei Shisheng and other generals watched Shanhaiguan being shrouded in gunsmoke, a white flag was actually hung on the wall of Shanhaiguan City, and Shanhaiguan actually surrendered.

"How did they surrender?"

Lu Xiangsheng is very sorry, for Lu Xiangsheng, training artillery at the training ground is actually the same as training artillery in Shanhaiguan, the same need to consume artillery shells, the same need for food, the problem is that the feeling of the soldiers is different when they lose the atmosphere of the battlefield.

But there is no way, he needs to tell Cheng Shijie about this matter.

The hooves of galloping horses pounded on the avenue, making a dense duo sound. The sturdy Liaodong war horse's hair was already soaked with sweat, and he panted violently as he ran, and streams of white foam poured out from between his mouth and nose, and then were sprayed into the air.

Although Emperor Chongzhen canceled the post station of the Ming Dynasty, as early as the winter of the fourth year of Chongzhen, when Cheng Shijie led the Ning Navy to cross Liaodong eastward, he began to rebuild the post station system of the Ning Navy.

A lot of manpower and material resources have been invested, with the expansion of the Ning Navy, originally only from Lushun, Jinzhou, Gaizhou, Haizhou's post station system, rapidly expanded to Guangning, Liaozhong, Liaoyang and other places, but thanks to the economic development of Liaodong, relying on commercial income, it can make up for the balance of Liaodong's post station system, and even some money, but not much.

With the Ning Navy conquering Shenyang from Liaodong, this post station system became larger and larger, in fact, the most important task of the Andong Metropolitan Governor's Office now is to establish this complex and huge post station system.

Since last year, the Ning Navy has occupied all places in western Liaoning except Shanhaiguan, and then western Liaoning has also been incorporated into this system, followed by Yongping Mansion, Shuntian Mansion, and Baoding Mansion.

Just ahead, a post station was already in sight, but the war horse was about to hold on, neighing, collapsed, spasmodic all over, every muscle twitched, the abdomen rose and fell sharply like a bellows, and streams of blood spurted from between the mouth and nose. It raised its head with difficulty and looked at its master, with tears in the corners of its eyes, as if begging for something.

The rider's teeth bit deep into his lips, blood flowed, his hands trembled, he didn't care about the consequences of the war horse, this war horse was already useless, even if it could be healed in the future, it could no longer take on the work of a stagecoach, and could only be used as a horse or crossbow.

"Urgent military intelligence!"

The rider spread his legs and ran wildly towards the station. In fact, the post house had already seen the rider, and the spare was already ready, and the water to drink and food was also prepared, and the post man led the horse to the rider like a relay race, checked his identity, signed, and handed the food and water to the rider.

It is more than 300 kilometers from Shanhaiguan to Beijing, even if it is self-driving in later generations, it will take three or four hours, but through this post station system, it can maintain a speed of 25 to 30 kilometers per hour, and it only takes more than 14 hours to arrive at Beijing.

When Cheng Shijie received this news, only sixteen hours had passed, although it was far from the speed of later generations, this was indeed the fastest speed of the Ming Dynasty, and the fastest speed of the handover was completed, and the rider ran four horses on the road, although the price was not low, it was still very important for the imperial court to grasp the first-hand information in the first time.

Of course, at this time, Cheng Shijie had not slept yet. The reason why he didn't sleep was really not because of state affairs, although there were really a lot of state affairs, the real reason was because of Yang Yunniang.

For Brother Da Yuan, his regret is Zhang Panpan. But for Yang Yunniang's regret, it is Cheng Shijie.

Yang Yunniang is actually very inferior in her heart, her biggest inferiority complex is her background, in the background is more important than hard work, although Yang Yunniang has worked very hard, from a person in the rivers and lakes, it took less than six years to become the female deputy minister of the Ming Empire, and she is also the woman with the highest official position in the Ming Dynasty so far.

Unlike the heroines of the Internet in later generations, Yang Yunniang is not very ambitious, if it weren't for Cheng Shijie, she wouldn't even want the president of the Ming Imperial Bank, the secretary of the audit department, or the vice minister of the Ming Empire, which is not very attractive to Yang Yunniang.

As a girl who has been living in the country since childhood, Yang Yunniang has seen countless people, from the eunuchs and nobles, down to the homeless people, in Yang Yunniang's understanding, the higher the status, the greater the power, the more money the person is, the more unkind, especially for children and wives and concubines.

Only Cheng Shijie is an outlier, Cheng Shijie is not like Daming's ordinary father and son to Cheng Jialong's son, and Cheng Jiayue's daughter is not like Daming's ordinary father-daughter relationship. Daming is not without parents who are good to their children, that is good, either doting without a bottom line, or pampering without a bottom line.

However, Cheng Shijie is principled and cares for Cheng Jiayue and Cheng Jialong, Cheng Shijie can play games with Cheng Jiayue, and he can also play and joke with Cheng Jialong.

It may be said that Cheng Shijie is the best father in the whole world in the eyes of Yang Yunniang, of course, he is different from other men, he respects women very much.

Women are sensual, and many men face women with only one result, and that is to go down three ways. In this era, unlike later generations, women have no qualifications and power to say no, or only obedience.

Yang Yunniang also thought in her heart that if Cheng Shijie was not a regent or a general, he was just an ordinary person, and Yang Yunniang would not mind becoming Cheng Shijie's woman.

But the last time it hit her a bit.

She sat in front of Cheng Shijie, hoping that Cheng Shijie would give her an explanation, if she really didn't like it, she really couldn't be together, and she didn't force it.

Cheng Shijie naturally didn't explain to Yang Yunniang, men are actually sincere and persistent, he is also like ordinary men, he likes young and beautiful girls, with his current identity and status, if he needs dozens, hundreds or thousands of women is not a problem.

It's like Brother Qiang saying that he is face blind and doesn't know what beauty is, and like Brother Xiaoma, he says that he never cares about money, and only if he lacks something, he will fantasize about something.

Cheng Shijie has never been like others, raising fish and flowers, he has never had this interest, because he was born in the countryside and has been farming for more than ten years, he has no interest in farming, and he has also raised fish, the kind of fish farming in the fish pond, because he got too much, but he didn't care too much.

Now Cheng Shijie can also say like Brother Xiao Ma that he never cares about the amount of money, because money is just a number for him, which can shake the blind gold, but Cheng Shijie never wears any gold and silver jewelry, because Cheng Shijie does not need to use jewelry to show his identity.

Yang Yunniang and Cheng Shijie were together, but they talked about the future development of the bank, not the relationship between the two people, Cheng Shijie also used his half-hung financial knowledge to tell Yang Yunniang about the development trend of the bank, as well as the loopholes and problems that exist in Daming Bank.

As this military intelligence report was sent to Cheng Shijie, he thought that the artillery of the Ning Navy had made a breakthrough and used artillery to break through Shanhaiguan.

As a result, when I saw the intelligence clearly, I knew that it was the infighting between Gao Di and the generals under his command, and the fortresses were all broken from the inside, whether it was the Ning Navy or the current Ming Royal Army, in fact, they all lacked the ability and experience to attack the fortifications.

This also means that the artillery training of the Anbei Army and the Anxi Army needs to find another way, which is a matter that affects the whole body.

Seeing that Cheng Shijie's face was not good-looking, Yang Yunniang cautiously asked, "Is the front line defeated?" ”

"No, it's a victory, Shanhaiguan has taken it!"

"How can you pay it back?"

Yang Yunniang was a little puzzled, isn't it good to win the battle?

Cheng Shijie sighed and said: "You don't know, the location of Shanhaiguan is too good, it is very close to Liaodong, it is convenient and quick to mobilize materials by sea, and it can also strengthen the Anxi Legion and the Anbei Legion, including the training of the Central Legion and the Nan'an Legion that will be formed, such a good target is not easy to find!" ”
