The Concubine Wushuang of Red Mansion

Chapter 250 I just want blood to wash away the shame.
Wang Ying thought that Marquis Ning Guo would listen to his story immediately, but unexpectedly, Marquis Ning Guo didn't seem to be interested. The look he looked back was full of disappointment, even though he was well treated in Jia Cong's military camp. I bathed in hot water, put on clean clothes, and ate hot meals.

Wang Dahai, a servant of the Wang family, devoured the food. Seeing that his young master was worried, he could understand his mood, "Young Master, we have been exhausted all the way to escape. When the Marquis asked about Fushun City, the young master must have been very sad again. Sadness will inevitably harm the body. The Marquis ordered us to bathe and change clothes, and then eat food to replenish our spirits. The young master can also think about what to say later."

These words made Wang Ying suddenly enlightened.

He began to lower his head and eat slowly, chewing the food carefully. While eating, he was thinking, what should he say?
Talking about his father's tragic death?Talk about Li Yongfang’s crime?Talk about the brutal plunder of slave-building?Or is it the sad fate of the people of Fushun?
By the time Wang Ying thought about what to say, the bowl of rice had already reached the bottom. He seemed to be not full yet, but he did not dare to eat anymore. As Wang Dahai said, he was suffering from hunger along the way. , always in a state of ravenous hunger, suddenly unable to eat too much.

Wang Ying and his servant came outside Jia Cong's tent again. They seemed to be discussing something inside. The sound could not be heard, but they could feel the tense atmosphere inside.

The night was already deep, and the autumn night chill of Guangning Guard came. Gradually, when the clothes on Wang Ying's master and servant could not withstand the cold, the personal guards of Ning Guohou came out and invited Wang Ying and his servant to come in.

Inside, Jia Cong was sitting at the top of the central barracks. On two rows of chairs on both sides, his generals, about 20 of them, sat in the same posture. It can be seen that his military discipline was strict. They all looked solemn and did not say a word.

Wang Ying grew up in a military camp. At this moment, she could not help but feel frightened. She stepped forward and saluted, "I have met Marquis Ning Guo!"

This person was obviously younger than him, but Wang Ying didn't dare to be disrespectful at all.

"Sit down!" Jia Cong said with a friendly voice, "I invite you to come here because you escaped from Fushun City. You should be very clear about the situation there. Can you tell us about the situation?"

Wang Ying, who was originally in a somewhat calm mood, became excited again. The first chair on his left was given up. He sat on it in a daze and began to recall what happened that day.

"...My father heard rumors in the city that a large caravan would come to do business from Jiannu, so he became suspicious and went to discuss with the thief guard Li Yongfang, saying that these people must not be allowed to enter. The city is coming.

Li Yongfang said that Nurhaci was the most loyal dog in the Dashun Dynasty and helped guard the gateway to Liaodong. General Li trusted Nurhachi very much back then, so why should we not trust him? This would hurt the feelings of both parties. "

The generals under Jia Cong couldn't help but look at each other. The information reported by Liaodong to the court was not so detailed. They only knew that Nurhachi led an army of [-] to attack Fushun City, but was defeated. Fushun City was destroyed, Xia Jin died in the city, and Li Yongfang surrendered.

"At that time, Mongolians such as Zasai and Nuantu from the west happened to come to Fushun to collect rewards. The defenders in the city were wary of these people. They did not take my father's words to heart. At that time, Li Yongfang was worried that these Mongolians would suddenly He even thought about asking Nurhaci to send troops to help.

My father strongly opposed it. Nurhachi had already established himself as Khan and was clearly planning to fall out with me, Dashun. If Nurhachi was invited to come, wouldn't it be inviting a wolf into the house?In addition, two uncles, Wang Xuedao and Tang Yaoshun, also opposed it, so Li Yongfang could not persist..."

Hearing this, Wang Lang couldn't help but sneer and said, "I wonder if Li Yongfang is an insider? Jian Nu has already bribed him?"

Jia Cong didn't speak, only looked at Wang Ying. Wang Ying wiped away her tears and said viciously, "I heard that Li Yongfang became Jiannu's deputy general as soon as he surrendered. Nurhachi also promised to make him Jianzhou's consort. , he is quite old, but he is willing to be Nurhaci’s grandson-in-law, and he is not shy!”

Jia Cong raised his hand and pressed it, signaling him not to say this, and asked, "Tell me about the Battle of Fushun, and don't say more about the rest for now."

"Yes!" Wang Ying bowed and said, "At that time, there was a large caravan coming to Chuanma Market in the city. The people in the city were very excited. My father caught a spy in the city. Only then did he know , it turned out that someone actually came to bribe the soldiers guarding the city. My father reported this matter to Li Yongfang, but Li Yongfang did not take it seriously and did not report it.

It was quiet for the next few days. Then, on the morning of the 1000th, nearly [-] people drove dozens of carts filled with mink and ginseng into the city to trade east of the city.These merchants attracted a large number of people, and the scene was extremely chaotic. At this moment, five thousand ambush troops led by Jianzhou Huang Taiji also arrived at the city. At this time, the caravans in the city drew their weapons from their cars and cooperated inside and outside.Nurhaci also came with a large army..."

Hearing this, everyone's face showed sadness. Wang Ying sobbed, "My father and several uncles died in the battle. General Xia had been unconscious for several days. When the city was destroyed, he suddenly woke up." He came out of the government office with a knife in his hand, and met Nurhachi head-on. General Xia killed three people in a row and died of exhaustion. When he died, he held the big knife on the ground, and he was breathless. Not fallen.”

Jia Cong closed his eyes. There was a dead silence in the camp. Everyone had tears in their eyes. The scene of Xia Jin's unyielding death seemed to appear in front of him. The old general woke up before his death and sacrificed his life for the country. This is every day. A soldier's ultimate dream!

"General Xia died well!" Jia Cong stood up, walked around the camp twice, and said, "Do you all understand? Nurhaci is the enemy we will face in the future. I have to say that he is cunning, good at fighting, and strategically courageous. If he excels in fighting against Fushun, it can be said that he won't die without any blood. Now, we have to figure out what his next step will be."

As he finished speaking, the map of Liaodong slowly unfolded in front of everyone. The geographical mountains and rivers were in front of them. Fushun City, facing Hetuala, had been painted white. The nearby two forts of Dongzhou and Magendan were buried with him. It is also no longer highlighted in red.

Jia Cong's fingers traced the city of Hetuala, along Gule, to Ohun Emo City, then turned to Dongzhou Fort, and then from Magendan Fort to Fushun.

Although he didn't say anything, all the generals understood what he meant. Nurhaci marched for two days with [-] troops and horses, and brought a large siege baggage, but there was no news that the Liaodong ministries were alert at all?

As soon as Xia Jin fell into coma, Nurhachi came running thousands of miles away, which made people suspicious.

"No matter what, we cannot underestimate the Jianzhou Army. Our Dashun Army does not have the capability of surprise attacks. We must be more prepared. Since Li Yongfang has surrendered, our Dashun Army's firearms must have fallen into their hands." in the hand."

Jia Cong waved his hand, and Kong An came over and asked Wang Ying and Wang Dahai to leave. After the tent curtain was closed again, he said, "Tomorrow morning, we will go to Fushun as originally planned. Although Fushun is an empty city, it is only temporary. Yes, if the displaced people see us coming back, they may also find a way to return. This is one of them!

Secondly, traitors are not that easy to be, Yuan Qianhu! "

"The general is here!" Yuan Yongkang hurriedly stood up. "I hate traitors the most in my life. I don't care what methods you use. I will try every means. Within ten days, I want to see Li Yongfang's head hung on the wall in the north of Fushun City!"

"Yes!" Yuan Yongkang knew that this task was extremely difficult, but he gritted his teeth and agreed.

And following Jia Cong's military order, all the generals in the camp were frightened. From now on, let's see who dares to surrender to the enemy again!
"Confronting the Jianzhou slaves is a last resort. How can we still have our own people in the other side's camp!" Jia Cong laughed at himself and ordered, "Order Gu Tingxiang, the deputy commander-in-chief of Liaoyang City, and Pu Shifang, the general of Haizhou. Lead an army of five thousand, prepare your own provisions, and go to Fushun. We must arrive in five days!"

"Yes!"

After sending the troops down, Jia Cong discussed Nurhachi's next step with the generals, and Jia Cong also had a rough plan for the situation in Liaodong.

Early the next morning, Zhao Ansheng turned back to the south alone, while Jia Cong's army rushed thousands of miles to Fushun. Liaoyang City and Haizhou Guards did not dare to neglect after receiving the military order. Gu Tingxiang and Pu Shifang ordered their troops and set off quickly. , rushed to Fushun.

After passing through the Shenyang Central Guard, Jia Cong's scouts discovered the armies of the Liaoyang and Haizhou Guards and meandered toward Fushun. Jia Cong ordered the Three Thousand Battalion and the accompanying Jinyi Mansion Guards to slow down.

Wang Lang was very puzzled. He stood on a high hillside, looked at the army below, and said to Jia Cong, "Master Marquis, it is difficult for such an army to face the enemy. If it is not repaired, it will be like this if it goes up." Die!"

Jia Cong looked at the army with a cold look in his eyes, "As a soldier, if you are afraid of death and can't fight, and would rather be a soldier, you might as well die to avoid burdening the people. Send the order, follow them, and wait. After arriving at Fushun City, we will occupy favorable terrain and be ready to fight at any time."

Wang Lang couldn't help but shudder. He hesitated for a while and said "yes". Looking at the army below, the discipline was loose and there was no formation at all. Although he felt extremely regretful in his heart, he also knew that there were currently three thousand people in the battalion. There were only more than 1000 Jinyi Mansion guards accompanying the army. After they were scattered to work as spies, there were not many left. If they wanted to reverse the bad situation caused by the loss of Fushun City in a short time, they would have to use surprise to win.

Nurhachi marched in a hurry for two days, but the cities, guards, and posts in Liaodong were completely clueless. It was time to take thunderous measures to give these people a wake-up call!

Since Nurhaci's spies were able to reach Shenjing City, there was no secret in Liaodong that could be hidden from this old slave. When Liaoyang City and Haizhou Guard mobilized troops, the old slave soon knew about it.

At this time, Nurhaci withdrew from the city of Fushun, leaving Jia Cong with an empty city in which the war was still going on, in ruins, with rats occasionally infested, like a dead city.

Nurhachi's Chinese army camped on the east side of Fushun Pass, only one pass away from the camp of Gu Tingqiang and others. Nurhaci entered the pass on horseback and saw Dashun's camp occupying a dangerous place in the mountains. He divided his troops into three groups, dredged trenches and arranged firearms. , although the queues were scattered and the military discipline was loose, the number of people was large.

Nurhachi pointed his horsewhip at the camp of the Dashun Army and said with a smile, "I thought that the so-called Marquis of Ning Guo could be so capable, but what he sent was such an army. Early tomorrow morning, we will send this army to Marquis Ning Guo. A great gift and a warning to the Emperor of Dashun!"

Azig is still in Shenjing City, and even now, the emperor of Dashun does not dare to kill Azig, which makes Nurhachi look down upon him!
On the other side of the mountain, Jia Cong looked far into the distance. Because he was too far away, he could only vaguely see someone peeping at the top of the mountain.

"Master Hou, there must be slaves over there!" Wang Lang said.

Jia Cong was inevitably a little regretful, as he was too far away. If he wasn't sure of hitting the target with one hit, he couldn't alert the snake yet. Since Fushun was lost, he had to pay for it with blood. If Nurhachi was allowed to go back so arrogantly, , Liaodong is difficult to treat!
"Don't act rashly for now!" Jia Cong asked the people on his side to hide themselves and sneered, "Nurhachi thinks that the 1 people led by Gu Tingxiang are my trump cards. Those who came to attack him, let him do it tonight. Have a sweet dream!"

In the camp of Gu Tingxiang, Pu Shifang and guerrilla Liang Rugui sat around a table. Several dishes were placed on the table. In front of each person was a pair of bowls and chopsticks and a wine glass. Half a catty of dendrobium was filled with wine. In front of each person, A glass was filled, but no one was in the mood to drink.

"There is Jiannu just outside the pass, and the Marquis has not been able to contact him until now. No one has given us an explanation on what we should do tomorrow!" Pu Shifang picked up a chopstick of vegetables, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly. Somewhat absent-minded.

Gu Tingxiang was a little depressed and smiled, "Fushun City was lost, and Li Yongfang's crime must not be pardoned! General Xia looked back and killed three people. Up to now, the bodies are still hanging on Fushun City, and the Marquis did not ask anyone to remove them. His intention couldn't be more obvious, he wants General Xia to see with his own eyes that he will avenge General Xia!"

As soon as Gu Tingxiang's words came out, no one spoke in the camp for a long time. Pu Shifang and Liang Rugui fell into silence. Li Yongfang's surrender caused the entire Liaodong Army to lose face. It was precisely because of this that Gu Tingxiang and the other three were silent. He obeyed the military order and led his troops. He was not afraid of death, but he wanted blood to wash away the shame.

"Needless to say, since we are facing off against the Jiannu slaves, tomorrow will be a fierce battle. We don't want to live, but we want to die!"

"Tomorrow, Jiannu will definitely attack, and a fierce battle is inevitable. Today I have wine and I am drunk today, let's do it!"

Liang Rugui raised his wine glass and the three of them drank it all in one gulp. Since the war was about to begin, the three of them did not dare to drink more. They gathered together and discussed the strategy for tomorrow's war, and then they each took precautions.

At night, the camp was quiet, with patrolling soldiers coming and going, not daring to relax.

On Nurhachi's side, the map near Fushun Pass looked very crude under the light. He drew on the map with his stubby, calloused fingers and gave orders to Daishan and Huang Taiji, "Tomorrow morning, you will turn around and attack here." Dashun Army.

This place is surrounded by mountains on three sides, so you attack from the mountains on three sides and conduct a ring attack.These stupid generals from Dashun must not have known that my army, Dajin's, would appear from here, and they would be caught off guard. When the time comes, the army formation will inevitably collapse, and it will happen that we can win with less! "
