Blood from Daming

Chapter 845 Defending Gaoyang City

After careful questioning, Sun Chengzong found out that the martyr Peng Langjun was sent by Xue Family Army Yan Sanniang, and that the three thousand Xue Family Army warriors led by Peng Langjun had sneaked into Gaoyang City three days ago. It made Sun Chengzong very embarrassed, and he was quite puzzled about Xue Jiajun's intentions.

Sun Chengzong asked: "General Peng, Jianlu is running around in Beizhili, why did your Xue family army come to Gaoyang to help defend?"

Peng Langjun replied: "My master has always respected your lord. The mistress knew that your lord was in Gaoyang and didn't have enough troops around to protect himself, so she sent the last general to lead 3000 men and horses for thousands of miles to help. Make sure that your lord is not harmed."

Sun Chengzong felt very comfortable when he heard this, but when he turned his head and thought about it, something was wrong. Xue Jiajun actually spent so much effort to protect himself. What kind of plot did Yan Sanniang have? So Sun Chengzong said coldly: "General Peng, old man A commoner should not be protected by the Xue family's army, so please ask the Xue family's army to go elsewhere to kill Jianlu."

Sun Chengzong's words surprised his son's relatives. Now tens of thousands of Qing troops outside the city are preparing to attack the city, and the ancestors pushed the rebels out of the city, but Sun Chengzong's prestige made his son's relatives dare not speak. Peng Langjun said: "My lord , now that the Qing army is pressing down on the border, let’s talk about what’s going on after the Qing army is defeated.”

Before Sun Chengzong could speak, he was held back by his sons to persuade Peng Langjun's rebel army to join the battle. Looking at his sons, grandsons and relatives of the Sun family, Sun Chengzong knew that without external help, Gaoyang City could not be defended at all, so he had to shake it. He shook his head and didn't speak any more. With Sun Chengzong's acquiescence, Mr. Peng Lang, accompanied by Sun Chengzong's fifth son Sun Han and others, went to the city to summon the Xue family army's special forces to go to the city.

The Xue Family Army Special Forces who had been waiting on the streets of the city for a long time, after receiving the order from Peng Langjun, were led by several grandsons of Sun Chengzong, and climbed up the city tower from the east, west, north, south, north and south sides of Chenggaoyang City. The Xue Family Army Special Forces quickly determined their defensive positions. At this time The cost of casualties of the Qing army has already swarmed the city.

"呯" "呯" "呯", "呯" "呯" "呯", "呯" "呯" "呯",
When the Qing army entered a distance of 600 paces, the Xue family army opened fire. A round of musket fire fell, and the Qing army fell [-] people. At this time, there was a little confusion in the Qing army, and then they flocked to Gaoyang City. "Boom", "Boom", "Boom", Xue Jiajun's muskets did not stop at all, and hundreds of soldiers of the Qing army fell down.

In just half a cup of tea, the Qing army fell three or four thousand soldiers. The Qing army suddenly yelled, threw off the ladder all over the place, and fled back to their camp. In a short distance, there are corpses and wounded soldiers of the Qing army everywhere, as well as thousands of ladders and dozens of siege vehicles.

The Qing army was repulsed by the muskets of Xue's army. The soldiers and civilians in Gaoyang City cheered. Sun Chengzong's face relaxed, and he couldn't help asking Mr. Peng Lang who was not far away: "General Peng, your Xue's muskets have shot so far. Where was it made?"

Peng Langjun said: "My lord, it's just that the Xue family army seized a new type of fast gun from Spain at sea."

Sun Chengzong nodded his head slightly, but he couldn't help beating his heart. The Xue family army has become so strong that the Ming Dynasty is in danger. Thinking of this, Sun Chengzong frowned again. Seeing General Peng treat him so respectfully, Sun Chengzong felt that There is a slight hope of persuading Xue Jiajun.

To Sun Chengzong's surprise, the Qing army outside Gaoyang City did not attack again. At night, Sun Chengzong asked his second son to raise his grandson, and invited Peng Langjun to Sun Chengzong's study in the Sun Family Courtyard. , only Sun Chengzong, Sun ◄ and Peng Langjun were left in the whole study.

Sun Chengzong asked: "What is General Peng's position as an officer in Xue's family?"

Peng Langjun replied: "My lord, the final general is the real name Qian Zong of Datong Town, who is currently the chief commander of the special forces of the Xue Family Army."

Sun Chengzong said: "Oh, it turns out that General Peng is a general of the imperial court. Well, what does this special force mean?"

Peng Langjun replied: "My lord, the special forces refer to the units formed by the Xue family army to perform special tasks. They have the characteristics of flexible organization, capable personnel, well-equipped, fast maneuvering, well-trained, and strong combat effectiveness. They are the elite of the Xue family army's elites." Every soldier can be one to ten and one to a hundred."

Sun Chengzong nodded thoughtfully and asked, "General Peng, you are an officer of Datong Town, how did you get to Hangzhou?"

Peng Langjun half-truthfully said: "My lord, the last general was ordered to protect the general's family and was transferred from Datong to near Hangzhou."

Sun Chengzong said: "General Peng, as a general of the imperial court, has he thought about serving the imperial court again?"

Peng Langjun said: "My lord, isn't the last general going to serve the imperial court all the time?"

Sun Chengzong said: "No, the old man refers to serving the Ming Dynasty."

Peng Langjun replied: "The last general will always be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, even if his body is smashed to pieces."

Sun Chengzong was overjoyed and said: "Okay, then General Peng should set things right, abandon the dark and turn to the bright, and lead the special forces out of the Xue family army system. I will guarantee you a bright future with high officials and rich salary."

Peng Langjun smiled and said: "My lord, the current imperial court has decayed and fallen, which caused the rebellion of bandits inside the Ming Dynasty and the invasion of Jiankui outside. Our Xue family army adheres to the mission of saving the common people in the world, and strives to revive the Daming country. For the benefit of the common people of Ming Dynasty, Mr. Peng Lang is the only general who will follow him in his life."

Sun Chengzong heaved a sigh of relief, looked at Peng Langjun with cold eyes, Peng Langjun said: "My lord, my general regards you as the pillar of the country, please treat me as a disciple, sir, I hope you can do your best for the great Ming Dynasty. Mianli."

Sun Chengzong chuckled and said: "General Peng is here to be a lobbyist. I have let your general down. The so-called loyal ministers don't matter.

Peng Langjun said: "My lord, calm down, my general is absolutely loyal to Daming. In the future, the general will visit you, Your lord."

Sun Chengzong turned his face away and said nothing, the second son suddenly became curious and asked: "General Peng, has General Xue Yun rushed back to Daming?"

Peng Langjun replied: "Second son, my general has returned from Europe in triumph, and it is estimated that he will return to Daming territory in a few months. The general has admired the second son and his brothers for a long time, and I hope that the second son and his brothers can help you. The court is doing its best."

Sun Chengzong shouted loudly: "See off the guests."

After Peng Langjun finished the ceremony for Sun Chengzong, he followed Sun out of Sun Chengzong's study, and Sun returned after a while. Sun Chengzong said angrily, "Boy, why did you delay with that person for so long?"

Sun said: "Father, General Peng talked to the child a few words, and the child had to listen carefully."

Sun Chengzong said: "He wants to make an idea with you."

Sun said: "Father, General Peng just said one thing."

Sun Chengzong said "Oh", and Sun said: "Father, General Peng told the child the mystery of General Xue Yun's life experience."

Sun Chengzong asked in surprise: "Son, does Xue Yun still have the mystery of his life experience?"

Sun said: "Yes, General Xue Yun is also a dragon descendant of the Ming Dynasty, who is the direct descendant of Emperor Jianwen."

Sun Chengzong smiled coldly and said, "If you want to usurp the throne, you will become the son and grandson of Ming Dynasty."

Sun said: "My lord, General Peng said that General Xue Yun didn't want to kill the people of Ming Dynasty and let the people of Ming Dynasty suffer, so he went to Europe to expand the territory. The people of Daming are struggling to make a living, so they are determined to take over the mess of Daming."

Sun Chengzong said: "My son, do you believe that?"

Sun said: "I don't believe it, the Xue family's army has been powerful in the past few years, and it has a vast territory overseas. It is easy to win the Ming Dynasty. General Xue Yun did not raise an army to seize the throne. Thinking about it, it makes sense."

Sun Chengzong sighed and said: "Son, this General Peng is so outspoken, it seems that Xue Yun is already ready."

Sun said: "Father, General Peng said that General Xue Yun regarded his father as the No. 1 Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty, so he spread the message thousands of miles to ensure that his father was not harmed. General Xue Yun treated Father with great courtesy."
