Blood from Daming

Chapter 199 Merging the Army
A group of people stood on a small hill five miles away from Xue Polu's camp. Behind them were about [-] cavalry standing there. The leaders on the small hill were well-known figures in Liaodong. Yuan Chonghuan, the deputy envoy of Ningqian Daoist soldiers, Zu Dashou, the general of Ningyuan from Liao Dynasty, Wu Xiang, Zu Dale, the family servant Zu Kuan, Zu Dashou's brother-in-law and general Wu Jinshi.

Yuan Chonghuan, the deputy envoy of the former Daoist army and the right to participate in the government, went south to the Qiantunwei near Shanhaiguan this time. Zu Dashou and others were instigated by Zu Dashou and others to covet the secrets of the Xue family's team and the explosive package. Secretly suspected that Xue Yun had colluded with Mongolia, so Zu Zerun's dead ancestor Dashou put the blame on Xue Yun. Now his nephew Wu Sangui was beaten into a cripple by Xue Polu. It would be fine, but Sangui was wailing at home every day. Seeing that the situation was wrong, Wu Xiang went to a famous doctor and a martial arts expert to check. Only then did he know that Sangui's ribs were cracked by an inch. He met a legendary master in martial arts. Wu Sangui has no problem being an ordinary person. If force is used, such ribs will be broken piece by piece.

Wu Xiang and his wife went to his brother-in-law Zu Dashou and cried, what kind of deep hatred Xue Polu wanted to argue with a child, Sangui just asked you to compete with you, even an adult won, why did he secretly play tricks, so the ancestors went up and down The same enemy and all parties colluded with allies, and it didn't take long for Zu Dashou to get the news that Yuan Chonghuan, a former rightist and rightist in Zhengning, hated Xue Polu, so he went to encourage Yuan Chonghuan to merge with Xue Polu's team, but now Xue Polu is Sun Chengzong's confidant Yuan Chonghuan Dare to do it there.

However, Zu Dashou's brain turned around and it was a ghost idea, so he offered a plan to Ning Qiandaoyou and Yuan Chonghuan, and used Ningyuan Qianzong Xue Zong Li to replace Xue Polu, so that Ning Qiandaoyou and Yuan Chonghuan got the team and explosives. , Wu Xiang can report the pain of killing his son and injuring his nephew, and Xue Zong, who everyone knows is extremely dissatisfied with the Xue family, can also be promoted to a noble and assign some leftover soldiers.

So today, the farce of Xue's parents and grandsons coming to seize the army was staged. Ning Qiandaoyou participated in politics and Yuan Chonghuan made a lot of preparations. If the army succeeds, it would be the best, if not, the second lunatic Zu Dabi will lead people to take down Xue Polu. Ninety-nine out of ten are stable, but at the end of the day, when the people on both sides became chaotic, Ning Qiandaoyou and Yuan Chonghuan, who participated in politics, could forcibly take over Xue Polu's team on the grounds of quelling the riots.

Now that Ning Qiandaoyou participated in politics, Yuan Chonghuan, Ning Yuan's general Zu Dashou and others have obtained a change that has not been calculated after all calculations, that is, Xue Polu has no scruples at all about Xue Zong, the grandson of the eldest family. People shot and killed Zu Dabi on the grounds of plotting a rebellion and brought him fifty heroes.

Ning Qiandaoyou participated in politics and Yuan Chonghuan was hesitating now. Should he lead his people to rush up and kill Xue Polu, or should he flee back to Ningyuan City in desperation? Zu Dashou: "Master Yuan, let's send troops, Xue Polu It is justifiable for the captives to kill innocent people indiscriminately and arrest him."

After hearing Zu Dashou's words, Yuan Chonghuan hesitated even more. The reason was that Yuan Chonghuan was short-tempered and suspicious. He said, who doesn't know that you killed a son and hurt a nephew. The more you want to beat me, the more you have to think about it. So as not to be used as a spear by your ancestor Dashou.

Zu Dashou didn't understand people like Yuan Chonghuan, the more you urged him, the more suspicious he would be: "Master Yuan, don't come when the opportunity is too late, it will be even more difficult if you don't take Xue Polu now, my lord, give an order quickly."

Yuan Chonghuan's head turned rapidly. Now leading the troops there is no other way to choose but to fight Xue Polu, but if he withdraws like this, how can he lead them in the future? Thinking of this, Yuan Chonghuan gritted his teeth and said: "Go, go and meet for a while." Meet that Xue Polu, and act according to the officer's password when the time comes."

Yuan Chonghuan ran towards Xue Polu's camp first, Zu Dashou University led his brother-in-law Wu Xiang, his cousin Zu Dale, and his servant Zu Kuan followed Yuan Chonghuan, followed by a brigade of three thousand cavalry follow.

Lu Yaojin ordered his soldiers to shoot and kill about fifty thugs who stormed the camp with only one round of arrows. Xue Polu was very surprised and said that these were the Ming's army, but Xue Polu couldn't say anything now. Things have come to this point, and those who are brothers in Tiandi will be in the same boat.

Xue Polu shouted: "All the soldiers obey the order, prepare to suppress the rebellion, and line up."

Zhang Sanzhu and his troops who were still hesitating were quickly replaced by Zuo Ming's firearms battalion. In just a short while, a thousand firearms soldiers and 1000 spear and shield guards walked in neat steps, shouting high-pitched slogans towards the camp. Come to the door.

"Advance", "Da Ming Wan Sheng", "Kill the Captives", "Long Live the Ming Dynasty", "Shoot the Yellow Dragon", "Catch Nurhachi Alive" shouted the usual passwords.

Because the leader Zu Er lunatic Zu Dabi was injured and stunned, and Xue Zong had no decision-making power, no one in the hundreds of officers and soldiers behind him made up his mind and became a mess. It's completely out of control to mess with each other.

Yuan Chonghuan, deputy envoy of the former Daoist military preparations, participated in politics from the right, brought [-] soldiers and horses to Xue Polu's camp, and the out-of-control officers and soldiers slowly recovered some formations. Huddling into a ball and leaning against the south of Xue Polu's camp gate, Yuan Chonghuan pretended to ask Xue Zong for a while and then sent someone to see Xue Polu.

A general banner of Yuan Chonghuan's army came to Xue Polu's camp on horseback, and shouted at Xue Polu's infantry phalanx: "Master Yuan asked Xue Polu to answer before joining the general. , Xue Shishen will go with the General Banner."

Xue Polu was about to answer when Lu Yaojin beside him spoke first: "What kind of official position is Ning Qiandao? "

The general banner of the Liaodong Army drew its horse and went back. Lu Yaojin said to Xue Polu: "Yuan Chonghuan used Xue Zongzhi to join the army. The Liaodong Army came to avenge the army. I am afraid it will not be good today. Only by insisting on coming to Shanhaiguan will there be a turning point." , Xue Zong asks General Xue to make a decision."

Xue Polu was silent for a moment and suddenly shouted: "Gather the generals, light the wolf smoke."

After a while, five puffs of smoke were ignited in Xue Polu's camp. Xue Polu stood in front of the big tent of the Chinese army and spoke to the officers above the general banner in the camp: "You all know what happened today, so I won't say much about it." Now, the purpose of the Liaodong army is to join the army. From the first day when our Xue family army set foot in Liaodong, they have been planning our Xue family army. We are a guest army and can go back after the battle. Once we join the Liaodong army, we can only die in battle. Or die of old age in the land of Liaodong, where the soldiers and wars in Liaodong are known as "ten not repaying one". I, Xue Polu, will not allow the Liaodong army to annex us, are you willing?"

The soldiers of the Xue family army all expressed their disapproval of the bullying of the Liaodong army, and they were willing to follow Xue Polu to resist the Liaodong army such as Yuan Chonghuan and Zu Dashou.

Zhang Sanzhu also responded positively. Yu Dahui, Li Bazong, Ma Bazong and other wavering elements supported him on the surface, because the experience of the guest army in the pass in Liaodong is well known.

Xue Polu said: "Everyone, rest assured that we are resisting and joining the army. There is no other purpose. As long as we persist until Master Sun of the Liaodong Economic Strategy in Shanhaiguan comes, we will win."

After receiving Xue Polu's instructions, the officers all went to work as soldiers to prepare for battle. In fact, Xue Polu completely controlled Lu Yaojin's [-] cavalry and Zuo Ming's [-] infantry, which were the backbone of Zhang Sanzhu's [-] cavalry. It was Xue Polu's former cavalry. Although Zhang Sanzhu's leader position was determined by Xue Aoren, he only controlled the thousand cavalry on the surface. Lu and Lu Yaojin considered the scope, as long as they don't cause trouble, everyone will burn the incense.

When Xue Polu rearranged his soldiers and came to the gate of Daying, Yuan Chonghuan, the deputy envoy of the right to participate in politics and Ning's former Taoist soldiers, brought Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang, Zu Dale, Zu Kuan and others to Xue Polu's camp. Before the camp, Yuan Chonghuan regretted that he did not bring Man Zhao to lead him because of the matter of defeating Xue Polu's army. , He Kegang and others took it.

Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang, Zu Dale, Zu Kuan and others clamored around Yuan Chonghuan with red eyes. They insisted on taking down Xue Polu today to make his life worse than death. Zu Dabi who had just been brought over was still unconscious, but Zu Dashou , Wu Xiang, Zu Dale, and Zu Kuan are all warriors who can step down immediately. Everyone checked Zu Dabi's body and found that at least ten ribs were broken or cracked. Chest, now it's not about the recovery of Zu Dabi's body and martial arts, but about the possibility of Zu Dabi's life being lost.

Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang and the others just couldn't figure out why the Xue family was so ruthless. It seems that everyone didn't have such a big hatred. It's funny to say that it was the Zu family and the Wu family who twisted the Xue family's money, and now the Xue family is ruthless. They couldn't take it anymore, typical owners who only take advantage of the advantages but not the disadvantages. Now that the two families are feuding, it is understandable for the Xue family to get rid of one and lose the other.

Moreover, Xue Yun clearly stated that Liaodong's ancestral family and Wu family were on the Xue family's extermination list, but no more than two slaps would be known to the Xue family for this secret, even Xue Yun's personal soldier, Lu Yaojin, also decided to come. After Liaodong, Xue Yuncai personally told him to strictly guard against the affairs of Liaodong's ancestors and Wu's family, and if the consequences were too serious, he could execute "Operation Divine Condor" in advance.

Yuan Chonghuan, surrounded by his own soldiers, came to the gate of Xue Polu's camp and shouted: "Xue Polu, you didn't follow your orders to kill your colleagues indiscriminately, why don't you hurry up and accept the crime? If you know the current affairs, the official may not care too much about your fault." .”

Xue Polu: "Yuan Chonghuan, you are not my direct superior and you are not qualified to tell me what to do. The dead people at the door are all rebels who are trying to attack our Daming barracks. I, Xue Polu, have made great contributions to the court. What fault could there be?"

Yuan Chonghuan rolled his eyes at Xue Polu's words, and he got angry for a long time before he calmed down and pointed at Xue Polu and said sharply: "Xue Polu, a traitor who rebelled against the country, is the same as your master Xue Yun, I am kind. Enlightening you is to give you a way out, since you don't know how to flatter, I will eliminate harm for the emperor and the court today."
