Chapter 78 Heroes come out of youth

Zhang Cheng's military tent had not yet finished the discussion, and Zhang Yan's soldiers came over to send a letter saying: "Yang Junmen's relatives came to inspect the capture of the Battle of Shiqiao, and the generals ordered all officers above the sentinel to gather at the gate to greet each other." .”

He ordered Sun Dashan and the three people who came with him to rest first, and hurriedly led the sentry chiefs to the official road outside the camp gate to meet the chief soldier Yang Guozhu.

……

Yang Guozhu, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town, led his own main barracks alone. The garrison area was located about ten miles south of Xiaolong River. He also occupied an abandoned village fort to build the main barracks.

More than ten li to the west of the place where Yang Guozhu camped is the Linyuan Internal Supervision Office.

After Ming Chengzu Zhu Di moved his capital to Beijing, he expanded the dismounted horses of the Yuan Dynasty into a royal hunting ground in Nanhaizi. "Haihutun" is in charge of guarding and managing Nanhaizi.

Yang Guozhu was so surprised when he learned that the general Zhang Yan's troops had captured more than 370 heads of the Tartars, he suddenly stood up from his seat.

Guo Yingxian, the guerrilla general of his Chinese army, also asked suspiciously: "Is it true? Brother Xiaocheng actually captured a Lazhangjing? Old Guo, I have been patrolling day after day and fought fiercely with the Tartars for many days. Only a dozen heads were chopped off, and the governors are already full of praise, if Brother Xiaocheng really captured a living Jialazhangjing, then it's not..."

Guo Yingxian couldn't help twisting his boxy and strong figure, shaking the huge head on his head, his eyes were full of inconceivable expressions.

Zhang Yan's relative Lin Zhiyi, who came to report the good news, saw that Yang Guozhu and Guo Yingxian were somewhat skeptical, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "I report to Yang Junmen and General Guo, the leader of the Tartars, and the Jia Lazhang of the Tartars." Jing and his official flags are all in my family’s general’s camp, if Yang Junmen doesn’t believe it, he can go and inspect it for himself, and then he will know that what the general said is true.”

General Yang Guozhu said eagerly: "Okay, I'll go to the place where General Zhang Shen is stationed to check."

Lin Zhiyi hurriedly asked to leave, and went back to the camp first to report to Zhang Yan.

Here, the commander-in-chief Yang Guozhu also hurriedly ordered Guo Yingxian, the general of the Chinese army, to summon a few guards of the army, and the group rolled out of the camp gate at the entrance of the village fort, heading south all the way to the place where Zhang Yan was stationed. Run to the abandoned castle.

……

In the 11th year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, on October [-], at You time, the autumn wind rolled the dead branches and leaves, and they kept rolling in the wilderness.

At this time, it was Youshi in late autumn in the northern part of the Ming Empire, the sky was already very dim, and the sun was crookedly lying on the horizon. Everyone's face and body can still make people feel warm, even if the bleak autumn wind hits their bodies and faces, they won't feel so cold!

After receiving Lin Zhiyi's report, General Zhang Yan hurriedly ordered his own soldiers to summon his nephew Zhang Cheng, and Chief Qian Liang Song led all the sentry chiefs to gather on the official road outside the gate of the camp, waiting for the incoming general Yang Guozhu and his party.

General Yang Guozhu and his party rode over on horseback, he didn't care about greeting the general Zhang Yan, he was impatient to see the achievements of Zhang Yan's subordinates.

General Zhang Yan led Yang Guozhu and a group of people into the camp inside the abandoned castle.

Guo Yingxian, who was following the commander-in-chief Yang Guozhu, pulled Zhang Cheng past him, and shouted loudly: "Little brother, why did you really catch a tartar Jialazhangjing?"

Seeing Guo Yingxian's strange expression, Zhang Cheng almost burst into laughter. He forced himself not to laugh, and replied, "I've caught it, and I'm still alive. There are big banners, armor and tiger guns inside. If you don't believe me, you can do it yourself." Look. Hehe..."

Guo Yingxian still had an incredulous expression on his face, his big head was shaking back and forth.

A group of people came to an empty field in the camp, and the soldiers under the command of General Zhang Yan were busy using lime to nitrate these newly captured heads of the Qing army.

Looking at the piles of bald heads of the Qing army, the commander-in-chief Yang Guozhu had a very rich expression on his face, and his Chinese army general guerrilla Guo Yingxian couldn't help panting beside him.

Guo Yingxian rushed forward quickly, grabbed a few heads and held them in his hand to observe carefully. He is an old soldier who has been in the army for many years. Are these heads real Tartar heads, or did they come here to kill good people? You can tell at a glance.

After looking at a few, he went to another pile of heads next to him, grabbed a few more heads and looked at them carefully, and they were all true slave heads.

Chief Soldier Yang Guozhu didn't care much about these heads, because Zhang Cheng had gained more than a hundred heads of the Qing army in the previous Battle of Mafang. He believed that this time they must be the heads of real slaves, and Zhang Cheng, Zhang Yan's uncle and nephew would not have checked the wrong number.

Ever since he entered the camp, his eyes have been looking for the official banner of La Zhangjing of the Qing army. There are nearly [-] real slave heads of the Qing army together, and there are no such piles of heads. At the back, there is a big flag of Jiala Zhangjing official stamped obliquely.

Yang Guozhu looked at the official banner not far away, although his expression was not obvious, he has been in the army for many years, why hasn't he seen it?
But at this moment, under the agitation of his mood, his body was already trembling slightly.

After a long time, General Yang Guozhu pulled Zhang Cheng over, looked at him kindly, and loved him more and more. He laughed and said, "Xiao Zhang Cheng, brave and invincible, is really a hero, not only beheaded, but also beheaded." Many people captured Jiannu Jialazhangjing alive and handed over the official flag, which really boosted the morale of the officers and soldiers in Xuanzhen Town, and I think the governors would be very pleased if they heard such good news."

It turned out that just a few days ago, the Qing army of the brigade bypassed the defense line of Zhang Cheng and others in Liangshuihe, attacked Lugou Bridge and Gongji City westward, and defeated the commander's army defending that place. .

In order to evade the crime, Gao Qiqian joined forces with the cabinet minister Yang Sichang to suppress Lu Xiangsheng's achievements in the past few days and the achievements of guarding the place, and pushed the blame for the loss of Lugou Bridge and Gongji City to Lu Xiangsheng.

For several nights in a row, Emperor Chongzhen went to Meishan to look at the southwestern countryside outside the capital. The burning fire all night made him extremely anxious.

At the same time, all the information about Lu Xiangsheng was deliberately suppressed by Yang Sichang and was not uploaded to Tianting. Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen had no idea that Lu Xiangsheng was leading his generals to guard the Liangshui River defense line, and fought fiercely with the Tartars day and night.

Because of being deceived by Gao Qiqian and Yang Sichang, Emperor Chongzhen spread all his resentment and anger on Lu Xiangsheng. He took Lu Xiangsheng's title of Minister of the Ministry of War, demoted him to the right servant of the Ministry of War, and took back the Shangfang sword bestowed by the emperor.

This matter is now only known to the commanders-in-chief. Although the other generals and guerrillas have heard of it, they don't know the detailed reasons. That's why Yang Guozhu thought that this great victory is enough to comfort the hearts of the governors, and this time the great victory of the cabinet minister Yang Si Chang also will definitely not dare to hide and not report again.

Zhang Cheng didn't know the thoughts in Yang Guozhu's heart, he hurriedly said: "This time it is all thanks to the blessing of the military family, the last general has such a harvest."

　　But the first time I tried to write a book, the technique was still a little immature and blunt, and I couldn't write fast, but the snail has been working hard and has never been lazy.

　　I can guarantee that I will never be a eunuch, and I will insist on stable updates. If one day the writing is fast, I will burst out a chapter or two from time to time.

　　Finally, thank you for your support and subscription!
