Jinyi Night Walk

Zhu Di defeated Sheng Yong, Sheng Yong retreated to Dezhou, unable to shrink back, Ping An and Wu Jie also fled back to Zhending and held on to the city, refusing to fight. Seeing this situation, Zhu Di made another plan, and he ordered his soldiers to disperse Camp, collecting food and grass everywhere" made a lot of momentum.After the fleeing people fled into Zhending City, they all talked about the fact that King Yan's food and grass were about to run out, and the officers and soldiers left the camp to look for food and grass.Shining gold.

Pingan and Wu Jie called several fleeing civilians into the tent and questioned them carefully, confirming that their identities were undoubtedly, they couldn't help but move their minds.These two people think that their skills, military exploits and seniority are all above Sheng Yong, but now they are ruled by Sheng Yong." They are quite dissatisfied in their hearts, and they want to make a great contribution. Since there is a shortage of food in King Yan's army, the morale of the army is bound to be stubborn. Because the officers and soldiers of each battalion searched for food everywhere, the battalion must be empty." The two of them thought of greed for merit.

The two first sent scouts to find out what was going on in Yan's army camp, and the news they got was exactly as the fleeing people said. They were overjoyed, and immediately led the troops out of the city to "surprise King Yan's camp." Zhu Di was overjoyed when the two were caught in the trap." Immediately assembled a team and rushed forward, when Wu Jie and Pingan found out that they had fallen into the trap, they were already unable to retreat.

How can two legs outrun four?At this time, retreating is tantamount to death. Wu Jie decisively ordered to form a formation to protect himself. When Zhu Di saw that Wu Jie formed a square formation, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Wu Jie is an experienced soldier. He is good at defending the city and not good at field battles. How can you win against the enemy?It was originally thought that it is only necessary to attack one corner with soldiers and horses, and if one corner is defeated, the rest will collapse by itself! "

So Zhu Di feigned attack on three sides and main attack on one side, but his army has many cavalry pawns, which side to feint and which side to actually attack can change at any time according to the changes in the enemy camp. Later, "only Ping'an's soldiers and horses were left to barely support it.Zhu Di saw that Ping An had set up a watchtower in the army, "from the watchtower condescending to respond at any time, so he organized a group of dead soldiers" to rush into Ping'an's army forcibly, not wanting to fight, but just went to the watchtower.

This cavalry is the elite of the three guards of Yanshan Mountain. They are not afraid of death and strive to be the first. They can be killed under the watchtower, but they are safe and helpless." They had to abandon the watchtower and mount their horses to fight. After being cut down, the soldiers and horses of the Ping An Department lost their "clairvoyance", and were eventually overwhelmed by the frenzy of the Yan army.

Pingan fought bloody battles, fled back to Zhending City with Wu Jie, and checked the troops a little more. The result was worse than Sheng Yong." The two of them died or were captured in this battle alone, and lost [-] troops. The two of them originally It was to compete with Sheng Yong, but I didn't want to have such a disastrous defeat, and I couldn't help but feel panic." I don't know how to explain it to the emperor.

Sitting opposite each other for a long time." Wu Jie suddenly said: "Sheng Yong can do it, so why can't we do it? "

Ping'an's heart moved." He tentatively said: "What is Hou Ye saying? ", when the two eyes met," it was already a tacit understanding.

Soon, another well battle report was sent to the capital.

The report said, "It's windy again.

This time the wind was stronger than the wind that Sheng Yong encountered. The wind that Sheng Yong encountered was nothing more than dust and sand, but this time the wind turned out to destroy houses and pull down trees, violently blowing the watchtowers in the army. It fell, and the imperial army was defeated.

Fang Xiaoru and Huang Zicheng believed again.

Luo Kedi was furious again.

He made up his mind, put aside the secret spies of the King of Yan for the time being, and tried his best to build momentum, and started the anti-yellow movement.

He finally understood that if those trash don't step down, Daming's world will change hands sooner or later.

Zhu Di won twice, and the haze of the previous defeat in Dongchang was swept away, and morale was unprecedentedly high.However, Wu Jie, Ping An, and Sheng Yong stood firm in the city, no matter how much you scolded and lured soldiers, even if they refused to go out to fight in the field, Zhu Di was helpless. At this time, Xia Xun's people quietly found Zhu Di's camp, Seeing the detailed information sent by Xia Xun," Zhu Di couldn't help laughing up to the sky!

Pei County is affiliated to Xuzhou Prefecture, adjacent to Weishan Lake and Zhaoyang Lake in the east and Weishan County in Shandong Prefecture. This is the hometown and birthplace of Han Gaozu Liu Bang, and also the ancestral home of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang. Compared with the front line of Dezhou, This is still the rear, and the people still live and work in peace and contentment.

The weather in June is very hot.

In the evening, after dinner, the people of Xiaowangzhuang came out with their wives and belts to enjoy the cool. The old man spread out a small table in the yard, brewed a pot of coarse tea, and chatted leisurely. The young people gathered in the yard, sitting on the ground, talking and laughing laugh.

Suddenly, a group of officers and soldiers came on horseback. There were thousands of people, and they were all cavalry. Although the battle has not reached here, the people here are used to seeing the army "going from south to north, There are imperial troops passing by constantly, how can they not be familiar with it?But it was the first time they had seen such a well-groomed military appearance of this team of officers and soldiers, and they couldn't help but secretly praised the mighty.

These thousands of people are indeed veterans of all battles. The ranks are neat and disciplined. They ride horses without looking sideways, let alone whispering. Even in the hot summer, they are well-armored. Although they are sweating, there is no one An army like this is a mighty and majestic army.

Amidst the admiration of the people, this team gradually disappeared into the night.

The general of this cavalry was Li Yuan, the commander of Weizhou. To be precise, he should be the former commander of Weizhou, because when King Yan attacked Weizhou, he had surrendered to King Yan.Hundreds of people in Pei County never imagined that this team turned out to be the legendary King Yan soldiers and horses. The imperial army was stationed all over the Chengzhuo pass along the way. How could the soldiers of King Yan appear here?Pei County has never been attacked by King Yan's troops.

The next day, an astonishing news spread that King Yan's soldiers and horses, like heavenly soldiers and generals, suddenly appeared at the Peixian wharf, storing up tens of thousands of ships of grain and grass that the court had secretly stored up and could send to the front at any time. The fire burned out.Sheng Yong learned the lesson from the previous Dezhou million dan military rations that were taken away by the Yan army. This time, he put the military rations in the rear and shipped them at any time when he needed them. There is a fire in the backyard, that is the food and grass for tens of thousands of ships!

This fire boiled the river, and countless fish and turtles floated in the lower reaches of the Cao River, all of which were boiled to death.

Sudden news of the bad news" Sheng Yong almost fainted.

The enemy's [-] light cavalry can go to the rear without anyone noticing, the route of food and grass transportation, the distribution of the garrison, the customs inspections along the way, the route of the Yan army's retreat, all of this...how did all this happen? did it?

The grief-stricken Sheng Yong didn't have time to beat his chest and stamp his feet." He quickly ordered the general Yuan Yu to lead his troops to chase and kill Li Yuan. "Yuan Yu has [-] elite soldiers under his command." He has just armed the horses brought back from North Korea, which is considered a relatively strong team.

When this team, most of them riding donkey-sized war horses, hurriedly caught up with Li Yuan's six thousand cavalry, they found sadly that "it's not their own horses that are fast, but that they are waiting for him intentionally, and Li Yuan's retreat In fact, there was already an ambush by King Yan." The result can be imagined.

Zhu Yunxuan also started to go crazy when he heard the news." Immediately after Sheng Yong's memorial arrived, Sheng Yong, who was enraged, severely accused the imperial court of improper employment, which caused the imperial court's rear deployment to be detected by the enemy. I remember Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng and others' kindness to him for promotion, but they didn't directly name these people.

The ear is the young and strong faction in Beijing, the Yihe faction, and even the newly established Luo Kedi's anti-yellow faction, but they don't care about them. Arrived at Zhu Yunwen's desk.

Zhu Yunwen couldn't take it anymore.

In the middle of the night, the lights in Fang Xiaoru's study room were still bright.

Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng, and Qi Tai sat silently facing each other.

It took a long time." Huang Zicheng said in a hoarse voice: "Successive defeats" and now even the tens of thousands of boats of food and grass that were piled up in the rear have been burned by the Yan army." Aroused resentment, alas!Our situation is very difficult..." Qi Tai said coldly: "The family property saved by the Taizu during his lifetime has almost been exhausted, and the originally full treasury has been emptied." It will be difficult to recruit enough soldiers. In the first year of Jianwen, Jiangnan's taxes were greatly reduced. As a result, the household department has been unable to make ends meet in the past two years. Now it is stretched, and there is no enough money to pay for the soldiers in the front. These are all the results of your administration. , shouldn't the emperor be annoyed?"

Huang Zicheng said angrily, "You..."

Fang Xiaoru sighed, "cut off their words, and said: "When you two are in trouble, you and I should help each other and stop quarreling."

Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai snorted coldly.

After pondering for a long time, Qi Tai said: "Nowadays, people like Li Jinglong and Ruchang are constantly attacking us, and people like Jingqing and Lian Zining are also writing letters of impeachment." Jinling City is full of complaints. Don't take us under the knife, so as to stabilize the morale of the army.Instead of sitting still and waiting to die, let's take the initiative! "

Fang Xiaoru's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly asked: "Adopt the etiquette and plan to make it safe?" Qi Tai said with emotion: "I am in charge of military affairs" and in charge of political affairs. "The two of us are to blame for such a situation. Therefore, we The two should take the initiative to write a letter to plead guilty and take all the responsibility for the crime. In this way, Mr. Xiaozhi can still stay in the court. "

Fang Xiaoru suddenly stood up when he heard it: "It's a courtesy, no!"

Qi Tai held him down and said: "Mr. Xiaozhi, don't decline, we are being pushed out by treacherous ministers and people who are greedy for profit, and we have a handle. Now we have to make a gesture. As long as you are in the court, we will be able to fight against you." One day in the early days, what are you afraid of. It's just that after the two of us leave, Mr. Xiaozhi is the only one left in front of the emperor. Jiangshan Sheji and our emperor will be entrusted to Mr. Xiaozhi. "

Fang Xiaoru saw that he was speaking solemnly, so he didn't dare to refuse any more, but stood up and bowed to them solemnly: "You will live up to your trust!"

Huang Zicheng opened his mouth, but finally said nothing.

Qi Tai said again: "Mr. Xiaozhi is alone in the court, and there is no way to support him alone. He must find a strong helper. Chen Shangshu is the mediator for the son of the husband, and Wei Guogong has already moved. After we leave, the husband must make an appointment with the Zhongshan Palace as soon as possible. As long as the marriage is certain and you have the support of the Zhongshan Palace faction, Mister "can continue to control the court and avoid being taken advantage of by traitors! ", Fang Xiaoru solemnly said: "Xun Zhi will go all out! "!~!
