I am the carpenter king

Chapter 261 Bing Jin Zunhua

In the first year of Tianqi, on the third day of the seventh month, it is advisable to marry and mourn, and avoid breaking ground and moving.

Ten miles away from Zunhua City, there is a big camp of the Ming army, and the commander-in-chief tent.

Looking at the map in front of him, Sun Chengzong frowned slightly, thinking quietly.At this time, Sun Chengzong was no longer dressed as a civil servant, with a helmet and armor, a burqa belt, a sword at his waist, and a blood-red cloak behind him.

Turning around slowly, he glanced around in the large tent, and Sun Chengzong said in a deep voice, "General He, have the scouts returned yet? Is the situation in Zunhua City the same as what those soldiers said?"

Sun Chengzong and his party arrived here one day ago, and they received many Zunhua soldiers that day, and brought back news of Zunhua City.It's just that Sun Chengzong has always been skeptical about these news. Although he has 7 horses, Sun Chengzong will definitely not make the mistake of underestimating the enemy.

"Marshal, Tanma has returned. Those soldiers who returned from defeat are telling the truth. Zunhua City has indeed been taken by Jiannu. However, Jiannu does not seem to be permanently stationed in Zunhua, but just stays outside Zunhua City. We have dismounted five thousand light cavalry, and as for the large troops, they should not be in Zunhua. We didn’t see Jiannu’s large troops in the direction we came, and I believe they are going to the Santun Camp.” He Shixian bowed to Sun Chengzong and said respectfully.

Nodding his head slowly, Sun Chengzong's eyes fell on the map again, and he pointed to the location of Santunying.Turning around and asking Li Liang, the general of Zunhua City, he said in a serious voice, "Li Liang, who is guarding these three camps?"

Although Sun Chengzong is now the governor of Jiliao, he didn't know much about the affairs here shortly after he arrived.He knew the status of Santunying, and also knew that it was the place where Qi Jiguang was established.It's just because of the imperial court that Santunying has not received attention and gradually lost its original function.

Hearing Sun Chengzong's question, Li Liang was suddenly a little embarrassed, and after pondering for a long time, he said, "Return to your lord. The person guarding the Santun camp is General Qi Jinqi, the chief soldier of Jiliao!"

Sun Chengzong was taken aback when he heard this official position, Chief Soldier of Ji Liao!This title is really unforgettable.General Qi Jiguang Qi at that time was the general soldier of Ji Liao, what a scene, what power, how God's will tricks people.What Sun Chengzong has learned all along tells him that there are some things he cannot think about, but many people know that Emperor Wanli is to blame for this matter.

It is understandable that Emperor Wanli wanted to regain his power.But some practices are unacceptable.Sun Chengzong would not think, let alone speak.

The chief soldier of Jiliao, the Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers in charge of the entire Jizhou, can be said to be the highest-ranking military officer in the entire Jiliao, and his status is far above He Shixian.Although he was in command at the same time, his status was very different, but now He Shixian is in charge of tens of thousands of horses in Shenyang, which is almost the same.

As for Qi Jin's name, Sun Chengzong was taken aback. He naturally knew who Qi Jin was.Can't help asking quickly: "But Qi Jiguang is the nephew of General Qi?"

"Yes, my lord, it is Qi Jin, the nephew of General Qi Jiguang Qi. The guards in the Santun camp are 1 Qi's army, and that is the last [-] of the Qi's army." Li Liang's tone is also a bit abnormal here. Everyone in Jiliao knew about Qi's army, and was very indignant about what happened to Qi's army.It's just that everyone in the martial arts speaks lightly and has no right to speak.I can only watch the Qi family army fall to this point.

Sighing slightly, Sun Chengzong didn't say anything.Just turning around silently, looking at Zunhua City on the map, Sun Chengzong said in a deep voice: "Zunhua City in front of us, there are five thousand Jiannu Qingqi outside the city, what do you think?"

"Marshal, I don't think there is anything to say about this. Let's just go up and destroy them. It is very easy for our 5000 army to besiege 5000 people. These [-] people can be wiped out in one battle, and Zunhua City can also be defeated in one battle." " He Shixian quickly stood up, bowed to Sun Chengzong, and said loudly.

Looking at He Shixian, Sun Chengzong smiled wryly and shook his head.All the words of those soldiers who were impressed by him for three days were all in vain. After scanning the crowd, Sun Chengzong's eyes fell on a person, and he asked with a smile: "General Zhao, what do you think?"

Hearing Sun Chengzong's question, Zhao Lijiao was slightly taken aback, he didn't expect Sun Chengzong to ask himself such a question.After pondering for a while, Zhao Lijiao said seriously: "Commander, I don't know much about the situation in Ji Liao, but I have some superficial opinions. If there is something wrong, I hope the commander will not be offended."

Nodding in satisfaction, from the bottom of his heart, Sun Chengzong prefers generals like Zhao Lengjiao, but He Shixian also has his advantages, and Sun Chengzong's outstanding talent is being able to know people and assign them well.Looking at Zhao Ratejiao with a smile, Sun Chengzong said indifferently: "General Zhao has anything to say, just say it. General He knows the old man's personality. You can ask him in the future."

"The character of the commander-in-chief, General He, has already told the humble officer that General He is a rebellious person, and there are few people who can convince him. But when talking about the commander-in-chief, General He admires him from the bottom of his heart, and he is able to convince General He. There is nothing to say about the character of the handsome." Looking for sleep, his face was very serious, and his tone was very serious, but the words he said made people very surprised.

Listening to Zhao Ratejiao's words, everyone's eyes were on He Shixian, and laughter broke out in the tent.The tense atmosphere before the battle was swept away, and everyone relaxed, full of confidence in the upcoming battle.

Stretching out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, Sun Chengzong said with a smile: "Okay, let's get down to business! General Zhao, tell us your thoughts, don't talk about these useless things."

"Yes, Commander! From the humble point of view, it is very difficult for us to wipe out the 5000 light cavalry of Jiannu. Although we are several times the enemy, they are cavalry after all. If we flee sincerely, it may be difficult for us to wipe them out. If we want to To wipe out these [-] Jiannu cavalry, we can only use tricks!" Looking around in the big tent, Zhao Lediao said in a deep voice.

He nodded in agreement. Sun Chengzong also meant the same thing. In his opinion, as long as it is fighting, it is brains that are used at any time.If you fight bravely, although you can win, you will definitely not last long.As the saying goes, soldiers are more valuable than elites, and generals are more valuable than wisdom.Looking at Zhao Ratejiao with a smile, Sun Chengzong said in a deep voice, "General Zhao, if you have something to say, go on!"

"Yes, Commander! According to Tan Ma, Jian Nu sent Tan Ma within a five-mile radius. They avoided them and were not found. But if we go there on such a large scale, Jian Nu may find us. At that time, even though it was only five miles away, we couldn’t catch up with Jiannu! So from the humble point of view, we can’t go directly to Zunhua like this, if we go there with such fanfare, Jiannu will definitely be scared away by us.” Zhao Led The teacher looked at Sun Chengzong and said in a low tone.

Although Jiannu cavalry is elite, Jiannu is not stupid, five thousand against seventy thousand, they are not that stupid.Once the news of the arrival of the army in Zunhua leaked out, the Jiannu in Santunying would definitely flee upon hearing the news.If it is like that, things will be bad!

Seeing Sun Chengzong's gaze, Zhao Lijiao was taken aback for a moment, laughed at himself, and said with some embarrassment: "It turns out that the commander-in-chief has already made up his mind, and I am really ashamed to play a big knife in front of Guan Gong!"

Waving his hands and smiling, Sun Chengzong said casually: "General Zhao's words are wrong. One person counts the short, and two count the long. The most taboo is not to listen to other people's opinions when marching and fighting. Only by brainstorming can we win the battle. I can only say that the old man and Zhao The general thought of going together, but this is not a bad thing, General Zhao continued."

"Yes, Commander! I feel that we only need to set up an ambush five miles outside Zunhua City, and send a team to lure the 5000 people who built slaves. But this team must be elite, otherwise we may not be able to return!" Scanning After seeing the people in the tent, Zhao Ratejiao said quite seriously.

All the people present nodded their heads cautiously. The task of luring the enemy has never been safe. Jianu has five thousand light cavalry, and the number of men and horses luring the enemy must not exceed this number.As the cavalry, there is a big gap between the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty and Jiannu. In the case of insufficient troops, if they are not careful, they will be wiped out.

Scanning around among the crowd, Sun Chengzong said with a smile: "Who is willing to go to the task of luring the enemy? This is a hard job. If no one wants it, the old man will appoint it."

"Master, I am willing!"

"Marshal, let the humble job go!"

"Marshal, it's most suitable to go to a humble job!"

As soon as Sun Chengzong's words fell, almost all the generals in the big tent stood up, bowed to Sun Chengzong, and begged for orders loudly.

Seeing this scene, Sun Chengzong was taken aback for a moment, then he laughed, pointed to the general below and said, "Okay, Yue Wumu once said: 'Civil officials don't love money, military officials don't hesitate to die, so why worry about the world's injustice?' Here, I saw that the generals of the Ming Dynasty were not afraid of death and dared to die, good, very good."

"Serve the commander in chief, be loyal to the emperor!" He Shixian on the side suddenly said, but he heard this sentence from Xiong Tingbi before, and it is just right to use it now.

But as soon as He Shixian finished speaking, all eyes were on him, and the solemn atmosphere in the big tent disappeared in an instant.The generals present basically knew what He Shixian was like, they didn't expect him to say such a thing, and they didn't know who couldn't hold back. They laughed first, and then everyone laughed.

There was no iron-blooded atmosphere in the whole big tent, it felt full of joy.Touching his nose, He Shixian said with some embarrassment: "Isn't that what you said?" Then he pulled Zhao Lijiao and asked: "Am I wrong? What are you all laughing at?"

"General He, it's not that the words are wrong, it's that the person is wrong." Looking at He Shixian, Zhao Liaojiao said in a teasing tone.

"Okay, don't laugh anymore. Since General He has the ambition, I will leave the matter of luring the enemy to him this time. General Zhao led the teaching and went with him. Look at He Shixian and don't make him make jokes." Sun Chengzong Looking at He Shixian, he said with a smile on his face. (to be continued..)
