Blood from Daming

Chapter 381 Move troops
When Xue Polu got up in the morning, he knew that the Jianlu Xianglan Banner had started to attack Youtun. Attacking the west wall of Youtun, Xue Polu was a little dumbfounded when he heard it. Are the defenders in Youtun made of tofu? Jierhalang's inlaid blue flag doesn't even have decent siege equipment, so why did it attack? The west city wall of Youtun.

Xue Polu stood in front of the Chinese army's big tent for half a stick of incense, but none of the generals came to the Chinese army to inquire about the news, that is, Xue Polu saw Wang Ping and Tao Yaofu, and Wang Ping and Tao Yaofu The man immediately hooked his head and slipped away, Xue Polu knew how dissatisfied his soldiers were with the Liaodong Army in Youtun.

Xue Polu didn't wait for his generals, but he waited for Yu Anxing, the governor of Shanhaiguan, the supervising army. He was very anxious to tell that Youtun was attacked by Jianlu and that Youtun was already in danger.

Yu Anxing said: "Polu, Zhou Shoulian is incompetent, and he couldn't hold it for half an hour. Our army should go to support Youtun."

Xue Polu said: "My lord, it is common for the enemy to attack and defend a city. The defenders in Youtun are several times that of Jianlu Jierhalang. Jierhalang is doomed to fail if he attacks less and more. My lord. How about the West Lake Longjing tea brought by the fourth brother of the first-grade humble official in the tent?"

Yu Anxing didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard that, but Chu Yi, the aide next to him, poked Yu Anxing and said in a low voice, "My lord, it's not bad to have some tea."

Yu Anxing understood what the staff member Chu Yi meant, as long as he sat in Xue Polu's tent, he would have a chance to persuade Xue Polu to send troops, so he nodded and walked towards Xue Polu's Chinese army tent first. Warmly greet Chu Yi, Yu Anxing's staff, to go to the tent to taste tea together.

Xue Polu's soldiers brewed West Lake Longjing tea for the three of them, and Yu Anxing looked at the Jingdezhen porcelain that made the tea and said very comfortably: "Polu, you are really elegant, and you brought such an exquisite tea set with you when you went to war. "

Xue Polu said proudly, "My lord, these tea sets were brought from Hangzhou, Zhejiang."

Yu Anxing took a sip of tea, then rolled it in his mouth, and then swallowed slowly, and then took another sip for a while and said: "Polu, what kind of tea is this? A faint fragrance, slightly bitter and mellow in the mouth, it is really endless aftertaste, Ben Fu has never drunk such a good tea."

Xue Polu smiled and said, "My lord, drink two kinds of tea, this tea tastes better."

Yu Anxing asked: "Polu, you said this is West Lake Longjing. I drink a lot of West Lake Longjing. The taste is very similar, but I don't know how many times better the taste is."

Xue Polu said: "My lord, this tea is West Lake Longjing tea, which was made by the young lady to honor her grandfather, but there are only two taels of West Lake Longjing tea. The owner of the family saw that it was bitterly cold in Liaodong, so he specially asked his fourth brother to bring it here. This is from a wealthy businessman surnamed Zhang in Hangzhou who honored his young wife, and the tea is picked from eighteen top tea trees in front of the Hugong Temple at the foot of Shifeng Mountain."

Yu Anxing knows the value of the eighteen tea tree shoots in front of the Hugong Temple at the foot of Shifeng Mountain. One tael of tea is priced at ten taels of gold. They are either rich or expensive, either for their own enjoyment, or as a gift to dignitaries. Yu Anxing understands that he is not qualified enough to be given such a West Lake Dragon Well.

Yu Anxing asked: "The young lady that Polu is talking about, could it be that General Xue Yun's Mrs. Ru and Mrs. Yan of the Shuntian Mansion are arresting the head?"

Xue Polu replied, "It's Mistress Yan."

Yu Anxing knew that Datong Xue Yun had wives and concubines in groups, but he didn't have an official wife. The official wife was Yu Dahui's niece and the eldest daughter of Datong Deputy General Yu Dacheng. Vice President Yan's status in Xue's family is very high, even if this Xue Polu was gifted with the best West Lake Longjing by the patriarch Xue Rui, the status of Xue Polu in Xue's family has far exceeded his own judgment.

At this time, a soldier came into the tent and reported: "General, General Sun Jian, the deputy general of the former Zhao Zongbing, has arrived."

Xue Polu said, "Quickly please."

Yu Anxing was very happy now, Sun Jian, the deputy general of Zhao Lijiao, must have come to invite Xue Polu to send troops, so he just saved himself a lot of trouble, Xue Polu owes Zhao Lijiao more than 100 flat vans Favor, let's see how you, Xue Polu, explained to Zhao Ratejiao.

Soon, Sun Jian, the deputy general led by Zhao, accompanied by Lu Yaojin, came to Xue Polu's tent of the Chinese army. The deputy general Sun Jian said: "General Xue, the commander-in-chief of my family sent troops to help Youtun. The general can help."

Deputy General Sun Jian's official rank is higher than that of Xue Polu, and he respects Xue Polu very much to be able to call Xue Polu a general. Almost no one in the Xue family army was willing to rescue the officers and soldiers in Youtun.

Xue Polu had no choice but to say to the deputy general Sun Jian with a distressed face: "General Sun, I am afraid that no one of the last general's men is willing to rescue Youtun, which makes the last general very embarrassed."

Vice-General Sun Jian said: "General Xue, what General Zhou Shoulian of Youtun did to Xue's army, Zhao Zongbing and the last general are also very shameless, but Zhou Shoulian was also instigated by others, and it was not his original intention to fight against Xue's army. I hope General Xue For the sake of seeing the vast number of soldiers and civilians in Youtun City, I sent troops to rescue Youtun once, and I believe that the generals of Youtun Zhou will definitely repent."

Xue Polu hesitated for a moment and asked, "If you want gold, what do you think?"

Lu Yaojin said: "General, the army is short of food and people's hearts are scattered. If you rush to rescue Youtun, you will end up worrying that the soldiers in the army will flee or mutiny."

Xue Polu said: "General Zhao has a great kindness to our Xue family army, and our Xue family army must support Zhao Zongbing's request. You should immediately organize the team and set off."

Lu Yaojin said, "Second Uncle, you'd better consider the feelings of the generals and soldiers."

Xue Polu said, "Will you go or not? I'll find someone else."

Lu Yaojin said, "Okay, I'll go, and I didn't say no."

Lu Yaojin quickly walked out of Xue Polu's Chinese army camp. Xue Polu knew that his subordinates were complaining to the Youtun Ming Army, but it was not to the point of disobeying his command. Xue Polu knew that Yu Anxing would come to invite him. When the Xue family army sent troops, they arranged a good show with Lu Yaojin and others, but now there is one more spectator, Sun Jian, the deputy general of Qiantun, during the performance.

Sure enough, after a while, Zuo Ming, Zhang Sanzhu, Yan Laoyao, Wang Ping, Tao Yaofu and others came to the big tent. These generals were enthusiastic and refused to rescue Youtun. Feeling uneasy, the matter of rescuing Youtun may be a little overhang.

Xue Polu slapped the short ones suddenly and said, "Don't make any noise, just talk one by one if you have something to say."

Xue Polu's words startled the generals of the Xue family's army, and they all shut up. Xue Polu said: "It is necessary to send troops, so the tone is set. Let's discuss how to send troops.

"

Zuo Ming said: "Second Uncle, this battle cannot be fought. Fourth Uncle said earlier that the family will lose money this time, and the compensation will be almost bankrupt. If you save Youtun and die a group of comrades, the Xue family must go bankrupt. He will be seen as a joke by those who punish our Xue family army."

Yan Lao Yao said: "That's right, that's right, you can't do business at a loss."

Xue Polu said: "Then why did Zongbing Zhao make a loss-making business for our Xue family army?"

Youngest Yan said, "It's about saving Youtun, not Zongbing Zhao."

Xue Polu scolded: "Yan Yaoyao, you are full of bullshit, get the hell out of here."

The youngest Yan stuck out her tongue when she heard Xue Polu's words, and hurriedly slipped behind the generals. Lu Yaojin said: "Second uncle, this battle is not easy to fight. Xue's army kills and fights alive, not to mention pensions and rewards." No, not even a grain of rations, but Zongbing Zhao is a good friend, and it’s hard for us Xue’s army not to send troops.”

Yu Anxing and Sun Jian listened to the Xue family's generals fighting to no avail, and they both became more worried about the battle situation in Youtun. Jianlu will relieve the danger in Youtun, and the Xue family army will not have to confront Jianlu, and they will make great achievements without bloodshed."
