Blood from Daming

Chapter 386 Raising Account
Yuan Chonghuan said with a smile: "Shoulian, come and talk."

Zhou Shoulian and Zuo Fujun hurriedly came to Yuan Chonghuan, and Yuan Chonghuan asked, "Shoulian, how is your battle with Jianlu?"

Zhou Shoulian said: "My lord, I have led the army and civilians in Youtun City to fight bloody battles, and have defeated the attack of the Jianlu Xianglan Banner Ji'erhalang. Now Jierhalang has led his troops to flee."

Yuan Chonghuan was shocked when he heard this and asked: "Shoulian, it's really your army and people in Youtun who defeated the attack of the Jierhalang Department."

Zhou Shoulian replied: "Yes, my lord, more than 3000 soldiers and civilians were killed in the battle, more than 3000 were injured, more than 1000 enemies were killed, and countless prisoners were injured. In the end, Jierhalang even gave up his promise. .”

Yuan Chonghuan was overjoyed when he heard this: "Shoulian, you are really a blessed general of our army."

At this time, Yuan Chonghuan felt that his sleeve was pulled by Zu Dashou a few times. Yuan Chonghuan immediately woke up from the surprise, and felt that what Zhou Shoulian said was too exaggerated. Yuan Chonghuan knew the abilities of Zhou Shoulian and Zuo Fujun. A general who is more than successful but not aggressive can now eliminate more than 1000 Jiankui in one day, which really makes people have to have doubts.

Yuan Chonghuan turned his eyes and said: "He Shoubei, go and inspect the heads of the more than 1000 Tartars. You must distinguish between real Tartars, Mongolian Tartars, and Han soldiers with shaved heads. This soldier must go to the court to protect integrity."

Guard He Kegang replied: "Of order." Said I was ready to leave.

Now Zhou Shoulian was in a hurry and shouted: "Sir, wait a moment, I have a lowly position to report."

As soon as Yuan Chonghuan heard Zhou Shoulian's words, his heart "thumped", thinking that Zhou Shoulian was up to something this week, so he could only call He Kegang and said: "He Shoubei, wait a moment, Shoulian, if you have anything to do, tell the truth quickly."

Zhou Shoulian began to sweat and said tremblingly: "My lord, there are only 310 Tartar heads in my hand. Except for the Jianlu Jierhalang Department who took away most of the Tartar corpses, the former chief soldier Zhao led the Ministry of Education. They snatched hundreds of heads of Tartars that were deserved by the soldiers and civilians of the low-ranking Youtun army."

Yuan Chonghuan was taken aback and asked, "Shoulian, what's going on here?"

Zhou Shoulian told Yuan Chonghuan about the offensive and defensive battle of Youtun and the rescue of Zhao Ledjiao and Xue Jiajun, avoiding the seriousness and ignoring the truth and the false. After listening to Zhou Shoulian's story, Yuan Chonghuan's face became very ugly. for a while.

At the end Yuan Chonghuan asked: "Shou Lian, in this way, Yu Anxing, Zhao Suijiao and Xue Polu saved you from Youtun, cut off the heads of the Tartars under Youtun city, and sent Jierhalang to you. Is it true that the supplies and animals in the camp that were not taken away were looted?"

Zhou Shoulian said in a low voice, "Yes."

Yuan Chonghuan asked: "In addition, you said that the Xue family's army rescued Youtun because they spared a large circle to join forces with Zhao led the church to force Jierhalang's army."

Zhou Shoulian replied: "My lord, it is like this."

Yuan Chonghuan asked: "Did the Xue family army really not cut off a Tartar's head under the city?"

Zhou Shoulian replied: "My lord, probably not."

Yuan Chonghuan turned to Zu Dashou and said, "Fuyu, the military discipline of Xue's army is not so strong, it is really not easy to deal with."

Zu Dashou said: "My lord, the Xue family's army has violated the military regulations by framing the friendly army and timidly facing the enemy. He also privately shared the spoils of Zhou Canjun and theirs. It is justifiable for my lord to deal with the Xue family's army."

Yuan Chonghuan pondered for a while and said to Zhou Shoulian: "Shoulian, if there is anything to cover up in the future, our soldiers will not be able to save you."

Zhou Shoulian said: "Yes, yes, I understand."

Zu Dashou asked Yuan Chonghuan, "My lord, should we pursue the Jian prisoner Jierhalang, or camp on the spot and rest?"

Yuan Chonghuan thought for a while and said: "Kill it, it's getting late now, let's camp outside the city to rest, and report the news of the great victory in Youtun to Lord Jinglue."

Zu Dashou nodded and went to arrange these things, Zhou Shoulian quickly said: "Master Yuan, I respectfully welcome you into the city."

Yuan Chonghuan looked at Youtun City after the fierce battle, and couldn't help but frowned and said: "Shoulian, maybe there will be military operations tomorrow, and my soldiers will not disturb the soldiers and civilians in the city."

What else Zhou Shoulian wanted to say, Yuan Chonghuan waved his hand and said: "Shoulian, it's settled like this. You have to appease the soldiers and civilians in the city when you go back. Besides, you dare not say that you have made great achievements by defending Youtun City. Well, don't worry. Yes, the credit is indispensable to you."

After Zhou Shoulian kowtowed in great joy, he left Yuan Chonghuan's central army with the guerrilla Zuo auxiliary army. Yuan Chonghuan decided to camp near the south gate of Youtun. This time Yuan Chonghuan brought [-] reinforcements. After a distance of nearly ten miles, Yuan Chonghuan ordered the Chinese Army to send people to invite Yu Anxing, Zhao Liaojiao, and Xue Poluli Jinzhou Army to discuss matters.

This time Yuan Chonghuan's rescue of Youtun was a bit procrastinating. Since he received the news of the siege of Youtun yesterday, he sent troops slowly this morning. Yu people, the left battalion is the 8000 guards of Chen Zhaolan, the capital of Ningyuan Zhongzuo, the right battalion is the 3000 men and horses of Zu Dashou, the general of Ningyuan, and the rear battalion is 1 soldiers and horses guarding He Kegang, [-] civilians, and the middle battalion. There are [-] officers and soldiers in the army Zhang Xian, Du Si Lu Zhong and Yuan Chonghuan's standard battalion, with a total of [-] officers and soldiers, and the total number of civilians in the five battalions of the Ming Army is more than [-].

About half an hour later, Yuan Chonghuan met with the generals of the battalions in the large tent of the Chinese army that had just been set up. Gang, General Zhang Xian, General Lu Zhong, General Zhou Shoulian, General Wu Xiang, General Liu Guoyong, General Xiao, General Xue Zong, etc.
Among Yuan Chonghuan's invited Yu Anxing, Zhao Shujiao, and Xue Polu, only Yu Anxing and Zhao Shujiao arrived. The lower head sat down and enjoyed the privileges with the Mangui General Soldier opposite, while the rest of the generals stood in the tent.

Seeing that Xue Polu did not arrive with Governor Yu, Yuan Chonghuan asked Yu Anxing, "Master Yu, why didn't Xue Polu come with Your Excellency?"

Yu Anxing said: "General Xue is not feeling well, so Ben Fu, the supervising army, will take care of it."

Yuan Chonghuan's face darkened immediately, so he yelled at Yu Anxing loudly: "Master Yu, what does Xue Polu mean, does he just despise his own soldiers? Doesn't he know that Ming's king's law is not successful?"

Yu Anxing made a gesture to quiet Yuan Chonghuan and said: "Ziroom, look at your temper, if Xue Polu comes, you must not draw your swords to face each other."

Yuan Chonghuan bowed and said: "Master Yu, the lower officials are a little impatient, but even if Xue Polu can't come by himself, he should send a department to hold a meeting anyway."

Yu Anxing said solemnly: "Ben Fu doesn't want them to come to Xue Polu's side. Ben Fu, the superintendent, has full authority to represent them. Ziru, how about I say one thing before everyone discusses things."

Yuan Chonghuan understood what Yu Anxing was going to say, but no matter how arrogant Yuan Chonghuan was, he couldn't seal Yu Anxing's mouth, so Yuan Chonghuan had no choice but to say to Yu Anxing: "Master Yu, you have something to say, but it's okay to say it."

Yu Anxing looked at Yuan Chonghuan and said, "Master Yuan, why did General Zhou in Youtun not provide food and supplies to Xue's army?"

Yuan Chonghuan asked innocently: "Master Yu, why didn't Xue Polu's team receive food and grass?"

Yu Anxing said: "It's very rare that Mr. Yuan doesn't know."

Yuan Chonghuan said aggrievedly: "My lord Yu, I really don't know, why don't you let the lower officials know about the situation?

Zhou Shoulian, the general of the Right Tun, quickly asked, "The end is here."
