The Soul of the Han Dynasty in the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 350 Golden State Camp
Zu Dashou fled into the city and was still in shock. After counting the troops, he found that he had lost nearly [-] armored servants, nearly [-] cavalry, and more than [-] infantry. Not less than five hundred.

Suddenly losing more than one-third of the total defenders of Daling River City, the number should reach more than 6000, Zu Dashou trembled with distress.

Two days later, there was another roar of shouting and killing from behind the Jin army's position, and the sound of cannons and blunderbusses could be heard endlessly. This time Zu Dashou was not fooled. The slave directs and acts on his own.

Hong Xie didn’t expect Guan Ning’s army to be fooled again, he still carried out the exercise, and just shouted wolf, and so on two or three times, and finally Zu Dashou even lost hearing the sound of war drums after the slave camp was built. The interest of standing on the top of the city to watch when the thunder is thundering.

The general was once bitten by a snake, and he was afraid of well ropes for ten years. The stimulated Guan Ning army was often awakened by nightmares. The three ordinary soldiers who used to laugh together have now lost at least one person, and pessimism spread in Dalinghe City , even if Zu Dashou wanted to go out of the city to do something, it might not be so easy.

The generals of the Guan Ning Army were not much better, more than [-] generals from the fourth rank and above were killed in battle, and more than a dozen were injured and were snatched back by the servants.

On September 27th, Huang Han finally returned to the Jinzhou camp with less than a thousand cavalry. Three days before his return, Fang Zhenghua and Huang Long had already returned with tens of thousands of rescued Han Chinese Aha and a large number of captured .

When he saw Huang Han, Liu Zhilun immediately congratulated him. The commander-in-chief of the right governor is already a senior member of the party, and now Huang Han has made great contributions in his hands. After another victory, it is very possible that the emperor will bestow him with a title.

Because Huang Han led the northward raid war, the results were brilliant. After more than a month, he attacked as many as one or two hundred villages of Jiannu, ransacked two fortresses of a certain size, and captured more than five thousand young men. , the vast majority of them were slaves, and no less than [-] Han people were rescued.

The highlight of the night was of course rewarding the three armies. The soldiers and civilians had a carnival for half the night. It is true that Jin did not achieve such a big victory for many years after the Ming battle. Next, the Ming army will swallow the Jinzhou in its mouth. The joy comes from the heart.

The sense of honor among the civil servants was even stronger, Liu Zhilun and Jin Sheng were slightly drunk, the two of them talked about ancient theories and gave advice to the world, and more than a dozen civil servants of different ranks played drums and passed flowers with Zheng Xiaowen and Gao Youmou until they got drunk.

Huang Long and Li Ruolian were drunk and went out hand in hand to compete with arrows. Fang Zhenghua took advantage of the wine and sang, possibly singing all the tunes he knew.

Huang Han didn't drink much, he kept his head clear under the protection of Hanzi, Song Pengfei, Yang Danian and other generals, and when he saw that everyone felt drunk, Huang Han sneaked away.

Eight personal soldiers from four majors, four minors, guarded Huang Han's camp, and Qin Yuyi, who was notified by Shen Ming, was also carrying a female soldier of the general banner to check the post, and the two met at the main lookout post.

The stars in the moonless sky were blinking, and Qin Yuyi, who was bold and unrestrained when she saw her longing lover, couldn't help but feel shy. There were thousands of words in her heart but she didn't know where to start.

Gu Kui ordered the four scouts on duty at the lookout post to rest, and the Chinese army took over the post temporarily, and all the female soldiers of Qin Yuyi's general banner dispersed to guard at the lookout post.

Huang Han and Qin Yuyi went up to the watchtower hand in hand. In the gentle night wind, they looked west to the sea and north to the mountains, then looked at the dotted tents under their feet, and saw the dotted lights of Jinzhou City in the distance. They felt relaxed and happy for a while. .

Huang Han gently held up his concubine's pretty face, feeling that all this was unreal.

"Yi Yi, am I in a dream? Are you really by my side?"

The female general suddenly softened, leaning half in Huang Han's arms and said: "Husband, I finally look forward to your return. If you don't come back, my family will go north to find you. Sister Xiu'e is just worried that you will kill me personally. Tell the servants to watch over you!"

"How can I be so delicate? Isn't it all back? Why are you disobedient? Baba came to the front line?"

"My family lives like a year at home, and it happened that sister Xiu'e wanted to send reliable people to escort the artillery and matchlock guns to the army, so my family asked for an errand."

"Remember, you are not allowed to run around without permission. Let me see you at any time. There are no eyes on the battlefield, and there are many cannons hidden in the Houjin Army. You must not make a mistake, or I will feel guilty for the rest of my life."

"Hey! I listen to you and will always be by your side!"

……

Even though his concubine Qin Yuyi was also in the army, Huang Han just designed a coincidence that the two of them snuggled up on the top of the watchtower and went back to camp after a while.

The army has always been a place of chilling and killing. Strict military discipline cannot be mere formality. As a general, you must lead by example and never indulge yourself.

If Huang Han lives with his concubine, it will break the rules, the general can sleep with his concubine in his arms, why can't other generals tease the female soldiers and officers?It is logical for lower-level soldiers to seduce female laborers who accompany the army.

Everyone is equal before discipline, Huang Han will not destroy the Great Wall by himself, so he still shares a yurt with eight soldiers.

Huang Han spoke like a mountain, and on the second day after returning to the camp, he handed out the reward for beheading that had been verified by Fang Zhenghua, Huang Long, and Li Ruolian.

All the gold and silver treasures seized were priced in cash. After deducting nearly 20 taels of military rewards, there was still a balance of 9 to [-] taels of silver. Huang Han ordered that the rewards be generalized according to the number of attacks. Take three copies.

Gao Youmou was naturally responsible for the acquisition of gold, jewelry, jade, gold and silverware, etc. He led a group of clerks to do these things with great enthusiasm, because it was profitable.

The army obtains these things by robbing, and the soldiers are willing to take cash. Basically, no one cares that jewelry and jade are intercepted by others when they are cashed out.

The Gao family’s pawn shops have opened almost all over the southern and northern Zhili. It’s easy to do this kind of business. Gao Youmou doesn’t pay much attention to profit. Of course, it is the welfare of civilian and military generals.

Gao Youmou is now in the army like a fish in water. It turned out that among the eight servants who were able to fight with him, one was killed and one was disabled. With the encouragement and support of the head of the Gao family, Mr. Gaodi, one of the six servants got the test. Hu and the two were tempted by the official title of seventh rank.

More members of the Gao clan scrambled to follow the eldest son in the army, and there were still a few scholars in the clan who thought that they would never be able to get the imperial examination by studying. Became a magistrate.
