The Soldier of the Ming Dynasty

The next day, Shen yourong's birthday party was held on time.

However, although there were a lot of guests and friends at the banquet, and Yuan Keli was in charge, all the discerning people could see that the gold content of these guests was

The only thing to be thankful for is that the famous Li Yuanqing has been here in person, which has preserved enough face for the Shen family at the military level.

Li Yuanqing also became the center of the birthday party. No matter whether there were any gentry and rich people who had dealt with Li Yuanqing before, whenever they had the opportunity, they must come and have a word with Li Yuanqing and mix their faces in front of Li Yuanqing.

Although Li Yuanqing is a martial arts man, his achievements lie here. If he can have a word with Li Yuanqing, even if he goes back to brag with others, it will be a huge talk.

People in Huahua sedan chair carry people.

On such occasions, even though he was a little irritable and tired, Li Yuanqing still kept smiling and exchanged greetings with every dignitary and gentry who came forward, without any impatience.

Although he was sober, he didn't go back to the birthday party in person.

Yuan Keli, on the other hand, has been sitting on the seat next to Shen yourong's main seat. Even though few people have come to say hello to him, the old man is very happy, which means that he will not be surprised.

Li Yuanqing tried several times to lean over and say a few words to the old man, even if it was just a token of his will. Thank you.

Unfortunately, he was stopped by the old man's eyes. He didn't want to have much communication with Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing also knows that there are different ways to be civil and military. Even though the old man shows his concern for Li Yuanqing at a certain point, he is obviously not willing to show too much on this occasion.

Li Yuanqing had to give up.

As the old saying goes, "say it ten thousand times, but it is far from practical to do it once."

Li Yuanqing knows that when he really does that, even if he doesn't go to the old man, he will certainly come to him.

When Li Yuanqing was about to catch his breath in the small garden outside the hall, Zheng Zhihu came over with a smile, "Li Shuai, it's really hard to have a word with you."

Although he had a bad hangover last night, Zheng Zhihu was in a good state of mind at this time. It can be seen that his ambition is not bad.

Li Yuanqing a smile, "brother Zheng joked, Yuan Qing now head pain is fierce."

Zheng Zhihu couldn't help laughing, "Li Shuai, Zheng is also so."

The two exchanged greetings, and the atmosphere gradually became more lively. Zheng Zhihu said with a seemingly casual smile: "Li Shuai, I heard that your fleet has been planning to trade with Nanyang?"

Li Yuanqing a smile, "in this respect, Yuan Qing still needs to learn from Zheng family a lot."

Li zhishuai said with a smile. How can Zheng's family compare with Li Shuai? However, if Li Shuai wants to do business, the Zheng family has some ways and is willing to have a good talk with Li Yuanqing. "

Li Yuanqing nodded with a smile, "the love of the Zheng family, Yuanqing is flattered. Let's see. Second, if you have time, how about visiting Changsheng island? If yuan Qing had leisure, he would accompany him in person. Although the scenery in the south is beautiful, the mountains and rivers in the north are more magnificent. "

Zheng Zhihu said with a smile: "Li Shuai is very kind and Zhihu is remembered in his heart. However, there are still many trivial matters at home. Zhihu will return to his hometown overnight. At Li Shuai's invitation, Zhihu can only stay until next time. "

Li Yuanqing nodded with a smile, "the gate of Changsheng island is always open for the second leader and Zheng family. Second, when the head of the family has leisure to come to Changsheng Island, Yuanqing will come to meet him

For the first time, Zheng Zhihu did not agree with his elder brother Zheng Zhilong, so he did not dare to reach any cooperation with Li Yuanqing.

For this, Li Yuanqing is not in a hurry.

Zheng family at this time has not completely washed white, rashly and Zheng family involved too much, on the contrary, will leave others with a handle.

According to the general situation at this time, the Zheng family has basically mastered the trade progress of the southeast coast, while Li Yuanqing, together with Mao Wenlong and Chen Zhong, firmly controls the control of the vast sea.

In terms of financial resources, Li Yuanqing's three people were obviously unable to compare with the Zheng family, but in terms of military strength, the ten Zheng families could not compare with the three of Li Yuanqing.

However, with the energy of the three li Yuanqing at this time, even with the support of the imperial court, the Zheng family was deeply rooted in the southeast, so it was difficult to win if they were rashly hostile to them.

In such a state, Li Yuanqing can only seek cooperation first, and then Xu Xu.

The luncheon was held as scheduled.

Although it was a little chilly, Li Yuanqing's personal coordination made the atmosphere maintain very good. Although it was not perfect, it gave the Shen family face, which was regarded as the joy of the guests and the host.

Because of the impending expedition, and his political and military affairs were entangled, Li Yuanqing saw Shen yourong after lunch, and left directly and went back to Changsheng island by boat.

At this time, it is about to enter the middle of April. According to Mao Wenlong's plan, the real battle is about to start.………

There was not much difference with Li Yuanqing's expectation. In early April, after sleeping in the mountains and woods in Kuandian for most of the month, Mao Wenlong finally showed his ferocious military front.

On the first day of April, Mao Wenlong led more than 10000 elite troops. The soldiers were divided into two routes. One was led by Chen Jisheng, deputy general of the right association, and more than 5000 people were forced to enter yangbao.

On the other hand, Mao Wenlong himself led the way, crossed the Changhe River, went into yuntouli and went out of yingergou. On the seventh day of April, he arrived at liangmadianzi, captured two Tartars Daba, and obtained an extremely important intelligence: "because the old slaves were fighting in Mongolia, the hinterland of the old village was empty, and there were only two out of ten soldiers left to guard the village."

At this time, good news came from the aspect of Yuyang. After two days of bombing by Chen Jisheng, he successfully conquered the fort and seized a large number of materials. He was rushing towards this side and converged with the main force.

How could Mao Wenlong waste such a good opportunity?

At that time, he led the army to attack Donggu village overnight.

Donggu village was one of the strongholds when the old slaves started their family.

Among the high mountains in the south of the old village of hetua, there are three important villages. Donggu village is the southernmost one. To the north, there are Niumao village and yanwang village. After passing yanwang village, you can face the old capital of the later Jin Dynasty, Hetu ala.

These three stockaded villages were the core of the old slave when he started his family.

Mao Wenlong, who came from the family of Yu Yang garrison, has been working for more than ten years in this deep mountain forest.

Among the generals in Daming, no one knows the terrain better than him.

In the morning of the eighth day of April, Zhang pan was the vanguard and attacked for half an hour, successfully conquering Donggu village.

However, Mao Wenlong did not stop at all and went straight to Niumao village.

At this time, among Mao Wenlong's main forces in Dongjiang, there were about 500 rods of new-type blunderbusts in Changsheng camp. Although Li Yuanqing did not supply Mao Wenlong with the secret weapon of grenade, he gave a lot of explosives to Mao Wenlong.

In addition, Zhang panbu learned a lot of nutrients from Changsheng camp before, and Li Yuanqing also gave him a lot of armor equipment, sharp and prosperous.

On the 10th of April, Zhang panbu was still the pioneer and successfully conquered Niumao village.

On April 14, the main force of the right association of Chen Jisheng's Ministry arrived, and the whole army, with all his might, conquered the yanwang village and went straight to Hetu ala, the old village.

Unfortunately, Mao Wenlong's speed was fast enough, but it was still too slow. After receiving the news, the gold soldiers poured into the old village one after another, and fought hard to defend it according to the benefit of the city.

Mao Wenlong and Dongjiang's main force bombed and bombed for several days, and even collapsed the wall of the South Gate of the old village, but they still failed to take down the old village.

As reinforcements from all aspects of the later Jin Dynasty continued to rush in, Mao Wenlong had to take a step back and take a rest temporarily.

………

When Li Yuanqing got the news of Mao Wenlong's main force in the eastern line, it was late April. At the same time, intelligence also came from the direction of northern Mongolia. He was in the Huangtaiji Department of the western grassland, and was rapidly marching toward Shenyang and Liaoyang in the East.

After the truce for just three months, a new round of military confrontation in the Liao area began to be staged again.

In the official hall, Duan Xiliang, Guan Canghai, Xu Heizi and many other generals of Changsheng camp gathered together. They were excited to hear that Li Yuanqing read out these news in person.

"General, what are we waiting for? According to the estimation of foot distance, it will take at least seven or eight days for Huang Taiji to get to the old village. This is our chance. Maybe they can approach Shenyang and Liaoyang directly. " Duan Xiliang clenched his fist with excitement.

"General, Duan Xiliang's words are not bad. Gaizhou and Haizhou have been idle for so many days. It's time to take them! "

"General..."

Looking at all the excited generals, Li Yuanqing's blood in his chest and abdomen could not stop rising.

Mao Wenlong's eyes are too poisonous.

It's fast, accurate and cruel.

He inserted a sharp knife directly from the back into the old slave's heart.

However, Li Yuanqing is also very clear.

According to the firepower of Mao Wenlong and Dongjiang headquarters, it is still very difficult to attack the old stronghold that the Tartars are fighting for.

This is mainly because Dongjiang headquarters does not have a front-line troops, can not directly tear open the defense line of Houjin, let the children behind rush in.

This is the most important factor that they blow up the gate of the city, or they can't directly destroy the city.

Although Zhang panbu was also elite at this time, their time to become an army was too short, and their firepower was not enough. In a small-scale battle, there were more people and fewer people to attack, which seemed to be very strong. However, when they met this kind of real war, their original form was revealed.

Of course, the location of the old village is too important, and the Tartars on guard have to work hard, which adds a lot of difficulties to Mao Wenlong and the main force of Dongjiang.

According to the original plan, Mao Wenlong asked Li Yuanqing to send troops in June. But at this time, the situation on the eastern front was so smooth that Li Yuanqing could only speed up the original plan.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I will not say more. It's in the present day to make contributions and make contributions! Pass on our military order, and the whole army will be in combat readiness. Tomorrow evening, the whole army will go out for battle! ""Yes

………

Along with Li Yuanqing's order, Changsheng Island here for a moment then quickly run up.

With the implementation of the main responsibilities of the various departments of the political affairs department, the responsibilities were further refined, and Shang Laoliu and Ma housekeeper also had more energy to personally supervise the operation of logistics materials of the army.

There is food in hand, and the heart is not flustered.

In terms of expeditions, Changsheng island has already had rich experience. In addition, Changsheng island has sufficient supplies. Even if things are urgent, there is not much disorder.

However, Li Yuanqing was deeply worried about the selection of generals and troops for the expedition.

At this moment, he suddenly found that there were too many soldiers, too many soldiers, too much firepower. It was really a happy worry.
