"Doctor, what happened to my general, is there any help?"

After the old doctor Li Shihe came out of the room, Guo Yi couldn't wait to greet him.He had been waiting outside for an hour, afraid of hearing the bad news from the old man.

Li Shihe's hands were covered with blood, and he was exhausted. Seeing Guo Yi's anxiety, he sighed inwardly. Nai shook his head and said politely: "General Shi's right cheek was cut off half of the flesh and blood. The injury is too serious. Do your best, but... oh..."

Hearing this, Ma Zhong, whose face was still wrapped in gauze, became anxious. He stepped forward and hugged Li Shihe and begged bitterly: "Doctor, doctor! If you can save me, you will definitely be able to save my general! I beg you, on No matter how you want to save my general, I, Ma Zhong, kneel down for you! In the next life, I, Ma Zhong, will also repay your great kindness, please!" After finishing speaking, he knelt down on the ground, unable to stop sobbing. [

"No, no, Mr. Ma Qian please get up, please get up!" Li Shihe hurriedly wanted to help Ma Zhong up, but no matter what he did, Ma Zhong refused to get up.In fact, Li Shi and He Zeng didn't want to rescue Shi Dayong, but Shi Dayong's injuries were too serious, worse than Ma Zhong's, his breathing was very weak right now, depending on the situation, he might not be able to survive today.

After Jiang Wanli, who was stunned by the Hongyi cannon, woke up, he was carried into the city. Hearing that General Shen was seriously injured and unconscious, he hurried over regardless of his blood.At this moment, with tears on his face, he stumbled forward and held Li Shihe's hand tightly, begging: "Doctor, please save my general no matter what, I will kneel down on behalf of the brothers to thank you for your kindness!" , also knelt down.

"Doctor, please save my general, I, Xiao Cao, knelt down for you too!"

Outside the house, Cao Bianjiao was sobbing. Behind him, dozens of wolf cavalry knelt down on the ground, and everyone wept bitterly.

Seeing this, Li Shihe couldn't help being moved, his nose was sore, and he choked up and said: "Well, the old man will fight with Lord Yan, but whether General Shi can survive depends on his own luck."

.........

Inside the governor's yamen, three white-haired old men sat facing each other, their eyes were almost fixed on an official document, and no one spoke.

Among the three, Sun Chengzong is 54 years old, Qiu Hejia is 57 years old, and Zhang Chun is 63 years old.In terms of age, Zhang Chun is the oldest, but in terms of body, Zhang Chun is the best.With such a great deal of effort, Sun Qiu and the two of them coughed several times in succession.

Among the three, only Sun Chengzong was born as a Jinshi, while Qiu Hejia and Zhang Chun, the teachers of Emperor Tianqi, were both famous candidates. Compared with those high-ranking officials in the court, this fame is somewhat pale.But in terms of knowing soldiers, it can be said that these three people in the hall are the most knowledgeable soldiers in the Ming Dynasty.Not to mention, Sun Chengzong supervised the division of Liaodong during the Tianqi period, and commanded King Qin's army to drive the Jin army out of the pass during the "Jisi Change". .

Although Qiu Hejia and Zhang Chun were newcomers, they showed military talent when the Qing army entered the customs. In the battles to regain Yongping, Changping, Zunhua and other cities, the performance of the two was remarkable. Can order.After the war, one was promoted to governor of Liaodong, and the other was promoted to Shaoqing of Taipusi, which was regarded as the imperial court's recognition of their military capabilities.

In fact, Sun Chengzong should be the commander-in-chief of the closed army in Jizhen this time, but he is not in good health.Excluding Sun Chengzong, the second candidate should also be Qiu Hejia, the governor of Liaodong. The original candidate for the Ministry of War was also Qiu Hejia. Xiong Mingyu is his deadly enemy, so it is naturally impossible to support Qiu Hejia as the commander-in-chief.In the end, Zhang Chunlai, the Shaoqing of Taipusi, was appointed as the commander of the army under the appearance of Cifu Wen Tiren.

Zhang Chun's talents were not inferior to Qiu Hejia's, so although some people were dissatisfied with this appointment and thought that a senior official who was familiar with Liao affairs should be chosen to lead the army, but the cabinet and the Ministry of War had already appointed Zhang Chun, and they had nothing to say.

It stands to reason that the rescue plan has been finalized and the first battle has been won. Even if the three of them are unhappy, they should immediately start deploying a war. But now the three of them are sitting there, but none of them can cheer up.

The reason was that the official document that had just been sent by the horse was sent by the Ministry of War, and there was only one content in it, that is, to order the Liaodong side to make a quick decision and not to ask the imperial court for reinforcements.

This time Zhang Chun brought 7000 soldiers from Jizhen and [-] Shanhaiguan defenders, a total of [-] soldiers, most of them infantry, and only [-] cavalry.Three days ago, after finalizing the troop plan with Sun Chengzong and Qiu Hejia, the three of them jointly sent a memorial to the imperial court, requesting that the cavalry from Ji Town and the Imperial Horse Supervisor of the Capital Division be dispatched to Liaodong to participate in the rescue battle. some.Unexpectedly, what they waited for was such an official document, which immediately chilled the hearts of the three of them.

A few days ago, the battle with the Jin army outside the city had told Zhang Chun that without a strong cavalry as a reserve, infantry alone would not be able to break through the Jin army's defense line.However, this official document completely shattered his hopes. For a moment, he couldn't believe it, and wished he could ride to the capital immediately and ask those grand scholars what they wanted to do!

Qiu Hejia was a little absent-minded, he was secretly praying for the comatose Shi Dayong, hoping that God would show mercy and not take away his confidant and beloved general.The reinforcements were commanded by Zhang Chun. Although he was the governor of Liaodong, he no longer had the right to speak. All he could do was to ensure the logistics of the army as much as possible.Although he also hoped that the court would send some more cavalry to join the battle, but if the court refused, he could do nothing but chill his heart.Song Wei and Wu Xiang still have some cavalry in their hands, but whether they can be mobilized depends on whether Sun Chengzong is willing to put all his eggs in one basket and transfer all the Guanning iron cavalry that he personally built.

But Sun Chengzong didn't speak for a long time, and Zhang Chun wanted to say something several times, but he didn't say it. The three of them just sat there, and the atmosphere was a little stiff.

Just sat there for a long while, Qiu Hejia, the host, felt that he could not sit like this any longer, and said angrily: "Liang's troops have only been in the field for half a month, and the military department is so passive about the Daling River battle. Don't they fear the cold? our hearts!" [

Hearing this, Zhang Chun, who was not wearing an official uniform but only in a Confucian robe, gave a wry smile: "I was ordered to leave the customs. I originally wanted to send the elites from the customs to come with me. In the name of the mausoleum, he didn't want to lead his troops out of the customs, so he only sent a general, Zuo Liangyu, with five hundred soldiers to listen. How do you say it? He actually said that I should deal with this matter on my own, and the Ministry of War will not interfere. A joke, what a big joke. His majestic Minister of the Ministry of War said that he could not rule a general. Isn’t this a big joke? What is it! According to me Said, his Kumamoto department doesn't want to fight this battle at all, he wants to give the Daling River to Jiannu Caixin!" The more he said, the more angry he became, and his beard grew taller.
