After walking three hundred miles, Kang Maocai's injuries were getting worse day by day, and Da Kui was not only anxious. Fortunately, it has entered the boundary of Lanzhou. Da Kui sent people into the city to report the news, and the team traveled to Xiaquan and saw the rescue men and horses sent by Lanzhou.

Back in Lanzhou, Da Kui was also ill. The military medical officer probed Da Kui's pulse and couldn't help but be amazed. Yang Xiaohu hurriedly asked the reason, and the medical officer said: "Master Zhang has lost too much blood, and he has been tired all the way. After two months of cultivation, you will be fine. It's just that the injury is so serious, but the pulse is stable and the breath is long, and the old man has only seen it in his life. After a pause, the medical officer continued with a smile: "There is nothing else to do here, the old man has retired." ”

Yang Xiaohu sent the medical officer out of the camp, but he held the prescription left by the medical officer in his hand. Most of the medicinal materials on the prescriptions are for blood and qi, but now it is a year of war and chaos, and nine of the ten pharmacies are empty, but where can they go to get medicine? When they were worried, a group of people came from afar. Yang Xiaohu couldn't help but be overjoyed when he looked at it.

It was Xu Da, Tang He and other generals who came. Yang Xiaohu stepped forward to greet them one by one, and Xu Da smiled slightly: "How is Lord Zhang's injury?"

Yang Xiaohu bowed down and said truthfully: "Lang Zhong said that he lost too much blood, and he would be fine after two months of cultivation. ”

Xu Da nodded, saw the prescription in Yang Xiaohu's hand, took it and looked at it, then turned around and handed it to General Lan Yu who was standing behind him.

"General Lan has always had a way, so I'll leave this matter to you. Xu Da said to Lan Yu with a smile on his face.

The general Lan Yu took the prescription, looked at it, and then hugged his fists and said, "My subordinates will do it." Saying that, he turned around to leave, but Xu Da smiled and said: "Even if you grab the medicine, you are not in a hurry, and it is not too late to leave after visiting Master Zhang." ”

At this moment, Da Kui is in a coma, his face is blue and his lips are pale. Xu Da and the others entered the camp tent softly, and after visiting, they quietly exited the camp. Yang Xiaohu was sent to the door, and Xu Da instructed: "General Yang will take care of Master Zhang here, and the commander will send someone to take care of him later." ”

Yang Xiaohu hurriedly thanked him, and Xu Da continued to ask, "Where is General Kang now?"

Yang Xiaohu hurriedly said: "General Kang was injured internally, and Lang Zhong was helpless after seeing it. ”

Xu Da sighed, and then said: "General Kang has been fighting horses for half his life, but he ended up with such a result, God is jealous of talents." ”

Yang Xiaohu bowed to his side until Xu Dayan said, "Take us to General Kang." ”

"Marshal, please. Yang Xiaohu stretched out his hand to invite, and Marshal Xu Dadang went first. Yang Xiaohu accompanied him on the side, always half a step behind Xu Da. Until Xu Da and others were brought to Kang Maocai's residence. Yang Xiaohu's status is low, so he stayed outside the door. After a long time, Xu Da and the others came out, and Yang Xiaohu actually saw that Xu Da's eyes were wet.

Sending Xu Da and the others away, Yang Xiaohu returned to Da Kui's residence.

The holy decree summoned Xu Da and the generals to return to Jiangnan Yingtian, and Emperor Taizu wanted to reward the three armies for meritorious deeds, so the Ming army did not stay in Lanzhou for a long time. Xu Da planned to return to Jingshi Yingtian before the beginning of spring next year, so the whole army was already prepared.

Lanzhou is a place where soldiers must fight, if the army leaves, I am afraid that Timur, who is far away in Mobei, will bring troops to take it. For this reason, the selection of Lanzhou guards has become the top priority.

The holy decree called that all generals of all armies must be teachers, so those who stay in Lanzhou should be deputy generals or partial generals. There are many capable people in the army, and it is said that they are not good generals who defend the city, but if Xu Da is relieved by wisdom, it is Kang Maocai.

Kang Maocai's life experience, many people only know one of them, but they don't know the other. Marshal Xu Da knew very well. Kang Maocai was originally a general of the Yuan Court, and he led troops to fight with the Red Turban Army for many years. Later, the Yuan court granted him the post of Huaixi Xuanhui and ordered him to guard the Yangtze River. At that time, King Wu's army went north several times to take Chuzhou, but was repelled by Kang Maocai's troops. Later, Marshal Xu Da sent 800 li to urgently invite Chang Yuchun to come, which defeated Kang Maocai with one blow.

Kang Maocai's martial arts may not be as good as the generals, but in terms of wisdom, he is the best among people. He has never lost a single battle in hundreds of battles in his life, but he was defeated in a battle with Chang Yuchun, and after Kang Maocai was captured, Zhu Yuanzhang, the king of Wu, loved his talent, but sent Chang Yuchun to surrender. The so-called: knowing heroes and valuing heroes, Kang Maocai and Chang Yuchun turned a fight into jade silk, and then he was called a minister in the same hall.

However, God is unfair, and God is jealous of talents. Chang Yuchun was killed, and now Kang Maocai is also seriously injured and in danger, but this makes Marshal Xu Da break his liver and intestines.

In the Chinese military tent, Marshal Xu Da frowned, and the generals were silent.

"This marshal wants to ask General Kang Maocai to guard Lanzhou, but he is ill and incompetent, can the generals be selected?" Marshal Xu Da was silent for a long time before he asked.

The forward general Sun Qian said: "The last general has Houji Houyong's brothers who can take on this position. ”

Xu Da's face was bitter, but he said: "The two generals Hou Ji and Hou Yong are more than brave, but the strategy is insufficient, and it is difficult to take on a big task." ”

Xu Da spoke for a while, but he didn't show any emotion. For major events in the army, it is natural that children cannot take a long-term view, which is also Xu Da's consistent style.

General Lan Yu came out and said: "The last general thinks that it takes a penny and a weapon to defend Lanzhou, so it can be guaranteed." The last general recommended the reserve army chief bookkeeper Tian Cang, who was familiar with the art of war and was as careful as a hair, and should be competent. ”

When Xu Da heard this, he shook his head again and again and said: "Although the chief bookkeeper Tian Cang is wise, he is indecisive, and he can't do it. ”

It turned out that Xu Da was the commander of the three armies, what could his subordinates in the army do, he was already familiar with it, so he could win a hundred battles like an arm. The generals looked at each other, and several generals stepped forward to recommend talents, but they were all rejected by Xu Da one by one.

Tang He didn't speak, and when Xu Da saw this, he not only asked: "General Tang has been silent, it seems that he has a bamboo in his chest?"

Tang He smiled slightly, and after a little hesitation, he came out and hugged his fists and said: "The last general agrees with General Lan Yu's words, but if you want Lanzhou to be careless, you must have a wise man and a thousand thoughts and a brave person is invincible, and the last general recommends two people here to be competent." ”

Xu Da's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, and he asked, "Who is it?"

Tang He thought for a while, and then said: "The messenger of the Jingshi, the Privy Council Qianhu Zhang Wen, this person is resourceful and comparable to General Kang. ”

Xu Da pondered for a moment when he heard this, nodded and said: "Yes, Prime Minister Liu Cheng also recommended Zhang Wen to Ben Shuai, but the capital division must not be guarded by unscrupulous generals, so Zhang Wen did not come with him on this expedition to the west." Now that Zhang Wen is in Lanzhou, this is the best. Xu Da paused, and then asked: "The wise man is good, so who is the other person?"

Tang He smiled slightly and said: "The prince is the prince, the left capital of Zhongshu Province is the imperial history, and Jeju is the Taishou Zhang Dakui." ”

As soon as these words came out, the generals not only exchanged heads.

Xu Da shook his hand again and again when he heard this: "No, Lord Zhang's fate is tormentary, and now Ben Shuai has asked the Holy Admiral to reinstate the official." Let him go back to his hometown and enjoy his blessings. "It turned out that Da Kui had begged Marshal Xu Da to retire after his success and never ask about the military again. Although Xu Da didn't agree, he kept it in his heart.

Da Kui was once the crown prince and the political envoy of Jiangnan. Later, because of 300,000 taels of silver, he lost his black yarn and became a captain in the army. But in the battle of Guanchuanhe, Da Kui retreated 100,000 troops alone, broke through Qingyang City Da Kui was the first meritorious, seized Lanzhou and forced Li Siqi to surrender to Ming, and the three great merits were exchanged for Xu Da's soft-heartedness, so he wrote to Taizu and interceded for Zhang Dakui.

Taizu received Xu Da's report, and he was also embarrassed in his heart. This prince Taibao is easy to say, but this Jiangnan political envoy is now a transit errand for local officials, and he has been taken over by Hu Weiyong. Zhang Dakui has the ability to do this work of spreading words, but he is really a talent. In desperation, Taizu had no choice but to seal Da Kui as the imperial history of the left capital of Zhongshu Province. It just so happened that Dakyu was from Jeju, so he simply did it with Jeju Taeshou.

If it were according to Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's usual temper, Da Kui would have embezzled 300,000 taels of silver, and his head would have been cut off eight hundred times. During this period, although there were important ministers who pleaded for mercy, it could also be seen that Emperor Taizu protected Dakui. If Taizu really wanted to kill someone, no one would be able to save Da Kui's head if he pleaded.

Now Tang He recommends Zhang Dakui, but Xu Da is shaking his hand again and again, one is that Da Kui is now seriously injured, and the other is Xu Da's Xu Ruo to Da Kui. Although this Xu Ruo was speechless, it weighed more than a thousand catties.

Tang He saw that Xu Da was not allowed, so he smiled slightly and looked around at the crowd: "Expand Timur Yongguan three armies, try to ask who of you present can stop it? Zhang Dakui once forced the 100,000 army of Timur to retreat, who can do it? It can be seen that Zhang Dakui is the first choice to defend Lanzhou. ”

Xu Da sighed, and then said seriously: "Now Zhang Dakui is the Taishou of Jeju and the imperial history of Zuodu. It is not appropriate to let them defend the city. At this moment, he is seriously injured, so it is better to leave him in Lanzhou to recuperate. The army sent attendants and Lang Zhong to take care of them, and it is expected that Mr. Zhang will not be able to get out of bed within two months. ”

It is inconvenient for Xu Daming to leave Da Kui to defend the city, and for today's plan, he can only excuse himself with Da Kui's serious injury and can't go far.

When the generals heard this, they said yes, and Tang He even threw himself into the ground for Xu Da's admiration. Who in the Ming army is scheming?

Originally, Xu Da planned to leave Kang Maocai in Lanzhou to recuperate, but Kang Maocai heard the news that the army was on the same day, and he actually asked the soldiers around him to bring Xu Da a sentence: The last general will be favored by the saint, and the official will know the same as the three grades. Now that his life is short, he only hopes to survive for a few days, and the class teacher will return to Beijing to see Long Yan, and Kang Mao will have no regrets although he dies.

Xu Da ordered someone to prepare a warm car, Kang Maocai set off with the army, before leaving, Yang Xiaohu sent a letter, Tang He took the letterhead and opened it to take a look, but it was for Kang Maocai. Kang Maocai was seriously injured, and in desperation, Tang He took the letterhead and entered the warm car, and read it to Kang Maocai in person: Brother Kang is like a face, Zhang Dakui is fortunate to know Brother Kang in this life. Although there is no Jin Lan oath, life and death are shared. He will meet again in the future, and he will be a big white.

Although it is just a few sentences, between the lines is the friendship between life and death brothers. After reading the letter, Tang He looked at Kang Maocai again, but saw two lines of tears on Kang Maocai's face, and his lips lightly opened and said a sentence: Be brothers again in the next life.
