marquis of jingan

Chapter 815 I don't hold grudges
After the first battle at Hongze Lake, the banks of the Huaihe River were extremely quiet for a few days.

For four or five days, there was no movement, whether it was the Huai'an defense line or the defense lines in other places of the Huaihe Navy.

This is not surprising.

Because of the Qi people, 5000 people were lost in one day!
With such a huge number of people, even if a large army is in the field and a large-scale field battle, it may not be consumed in one day.

After all, the killing efficiency of cold weapons is really not high.

But the Qi people lost so much in one day, firstly because the incident happened hastily, and secondly because the soldiers they sent over were basically not elite.

If there is even malicious speculation, the Northern Qi Conscript to the Southern Army did not even intend to take down any place on the South Bank. They died 5000 people a day, and they may have died for the Northern Qi court to see!

Of course, even if it was the size of the Northern Qi Conquest to the South Army, so many people were lost in one day, and it can be described as "bruising muscles and bones".

In a short time, the people of Qi should not make any big moves.

After staying in the Hongze Lake camp for four days, Shen Yi basically recovered, and he had already received a reply from the palace, knowing the court's tone on this matter.

But he was in no hurry.

Still honestly staying in the Hongze Lake camp, and let the soldiers under him have close contact with the original soldiers of Hongze Lake.

On the fifth day, General Zhao Lu Zhao couldn't hold back at noon. He personally led the people to the gate of the Hongze Lake camp.

At this time, Master Shen in the camp was still quietly enjoying his breakfast.

Today's breakfast is fish soup, which the soldiers brought up from the Huaihe River.

Ling Su cautiously came to Shen Yi's tent, lowered his head slightly, and said, "Mr. Shen, the Marquis of Anping is at the gate of our camp. He said he wanted to see you. He said that if you don't go out to see him, he will bring someone with him in the afternoon." Break into camp."

"At that time, there will be an unmanageable situation..."

Master Shen stretched his waist, drank the fish soup in the bowl with his head up, and curled his lips in disdain: "It's just a bluff, let him try to break into the camp."

He pointed at Ling Su, then at himself, and said with a smile, "How much money do you and I have?"

"He is from three generations of the Zhao family."

Master Shen clapped his hands and laughed.

"When he broke into the camp, not only did the three-generation family business go bankrupt in an instant, but almost all his family members in Jiankang died."

Ling Su blinked, lowered his head slightly and said, "Then Mr. Shen...won't you go see him?"

"See, he's a military officer of the first rank, how can we see the Marquis of Dachen?"

He wiped his mouth, looked at Ling Su, and asked, "Are there any of our seriously wounded soldiers who can't move?"

Ling Su shook his head, and said in a low voice: "After the fight that day, a total of 36 people were seriously injured, lying on the bed and unable to move."

"Now four or five days have passed, and it's gone..."

Just because no one is unable to move does not mean that all of them have been rescued. In fact, most of the seriously injured soldiers...

It's all gone.

Shen Yi nodded silently, and asked, "How many were rescued?"

"Seven."

Ling Su lowered his head and smiled wryly: "My subordinates just asked in the morning, and one of them is still improving. The doctor said that the fever will recede before it can be regarded as alive."

Shen Yi nodded silently, indicating that he knew.

He stood up, stretched his waist, and said, "Our conscription in Huai'an did not go well. After returning to Huai'an this time, I plan to send people back to the southeast to recruit troops to supplement the strength of Huai'an."

"Let Liu Ming under your command go away, isn't there any problem?"

Ling Su shook his head quickly and said, "Of course there is nothing wrong with my subordinates."

After a pause, he bowed his head and said, "Mr. Shen, my subordinates are from Linhai, a lot of young and strong people, and they are all good at water. They can be trained. Do you think Liu Mingyuan should go to Linhai to recruit soldiers first?"

Shen Yi thought for a while, then shook his head slightly and said, "It's better to go to Wenzhou Mansion to recruit soldiers."

"We stayed in Wenzhou Mansion for a long time, and the people there recognize us."

Ling Su is a man with many eyes.

Although the behavior of pulling fellow countrymen is very, very common in his army, it can even be said to be a practice, but Shen Yi can stop it, he still has to stop it.

Ling Su nodded yes.

Shen Yi thought for a while, and continued: "I will write a letter to the imperial court in the next few days, requesting to increase the strength of Huai'an, try my best to increase it to 3 people..."

"You and Xue Wei must be mentally prepared."

Hearing Shen Yi's words, Ling Su was overjoyed, and quickly bowed his head and said, "Yes, this subordinate understands."

"also."

Master Shen walked towards the gate of the camp with his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "Get ready, we will leave the Hongze Lake camp in a few days and go back to the Huai'an defense line. If we don't go back, General Zhao will jump over the wall in a hurry."

………………

A moment later, at the gate of Daying.

Master Shen stepped forward with a smile, cupped his hands at Zhao Lu who was sleeping like frost, and said with a smile, "Isn't this Marquis Zhao?"

"We are all friendly soldiers. If the friendly army is in trouble, I, the generals and soldiers, came to support us. We should be rewarded. You don't have to be so polite, but you have to come to thank us in person."

At this time, General Zhao was quite annoyed.

He originally thought that Shen Yi would stay at the Hongze Lake camp for two or three days at most, and he should leave after showing off his abilities. He didn't expect Shen Yi to stay in the Hongze Lake camp for five days, which made him lose face .

This matter has not only spread to the imperial court, but also to the Huaihe Navy.

Seeing Shen Yi's playful smile, General Zhao took a deep breath, trying to suppress his anger with his self-cultivation, he clenched his fists at Shen Yi reluctantly, and said, "Commissioner Shen."

General Zhao pointed to the camp behind Shen Yi, and said coldly: "This Hongze Lake camp is where our Huaihe Navy is stationed. If Commissioner Shen thinks that the Huai'an line of defense is not long enough, he insists on occupying Hongze Lake." Defense line, then you and I will jointly file a letter to the imperial court, and Zhao will let you defend the [-]-mile defense line!"

Master Shen waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't be angry, General."

"It's just that our army was fighting with the Qi people, and there were many wounded soldiers who couldn't move. They could only treat their wounds here, and there was no intention of occupying the Hongze Lake camp."

"I don't mean to occupy my camp..."

Zhao Lu looked at Shen Yi, and said coldly: "Then why did Imperial Envoy Shen close the gate of the camp? Could it be that he was inside, doing some shameful things?"

"If the general doesn't believe me when I say heal the wounded, then I have nothing to do."

"I told Mr. Ling that the camp at Hongze Lake was to be borrowed for ten days. Mr. Ling didn't object, so I just took it as his consent."

Speaking of this, Master Shen touched his nose and looked at Zhao Lu: "But looking at Master Hou's appearance, it seems that he wants to repent, and that doesn't matter."

Shen Yi said generously: "Then tomorrow morning, I will take them back to Huai'an."

Zhao Lu let out a foul breath and looked at Shen Yi: "Okay, tomorrow morning."

Seeing that Zhao Lu had no objection, Shen Yi looked at the General Zhao quietly, he glanced left and right, and seeing no one around, he whispered: "Master Hou, I heard that you have sued the court about me. "

"It is said that I forcibly occupied the Hongze Lake camp, and forcibly occupied your Hongze Lake camp."

Speaking of this, Master Shen said with a smile: "Master Hou, I am accompanied by inner guards, and there is more than one inner guard."

"It's a lot of inside guards."

The gloom on Zhao Lu's face flashed across: "So what?"

"Yes, it's true that you can't do anything about Master Hou now. No matter what Master Hou makes up, the court can only recognize it by pinching its nose."

"But what about the future?"

"Hou Ye despises the imperial court and despises the laws of the Great Chen. All of this must be recorded in the imperial court's merits and demerits book."

"In the past, the Zhao family relied on the Huaihe Navy, even if they made some mistakes, such as..."

Master Shen said with a chuckle: "For example, a few years ago, the fourth daughter of Lord Hou beat me up in Jiming Temple. The court held his nose and endured it, and even wiped the Zhao family's butt."

"But what about the future?"

Master Shen said calmly, "It's been three generations."

"The incense and love left by General Zhao Chong, even if it is as prosperous as the sky, it should have been spent, right?"

"How else should I put it, you scholars have small stomachs."

Zhao Lu looked at Shen Yi, and smiled disdainfully: "A small incident a few years ago was a play between children. Commissioner Shen Qin has kept it in mind until now, and he still can't forget it."

"Although I haven't forgotten, but I was beaten at that time, but I also got the status of Hanlin because of it. It was a blessing in disguise, so..."

Shen Yi smiled and said, "I don't hold any grudges."

"But right now, I'm worried about the Zhao family, Lord Hou."

He looked at Zhao Lu, gave a "tsk", and said softly.

"Otherwise, Master Hou will go back to Jiankang with me, kowtow to His Majesty, admit your mistake, and then..."

"Go home and retire in peace?"
