The little county lord said "ah" and whispered to Xia Xun: "I remember, this Gu Cheng and Zhang Bao are my third brother's subordinates." ” Xia Xun wanted to cry and said without tears: "Miss, don't you think it's a little late to think about it now?"
Xu Ming'er said strangely: "It's too late to think about it now."
"I'm a prisoner" "Ah" Xu Ming'er always couldn't adapt to Xia Xun's identity change, and when she heard him say it, she remembered it, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Then what should I do and hide it quickly?"
The two of them hurriedly looked around, this room is very small, there is only a small window and a door, Gu Dudu and Deputy General Zhang can't come alone, there are at least dozens of pro-soldiers outside, and they can't rush out, where can I hide people in this house Xia Xun and the little county lord glanced around quickly, and there was not even a cat in the house, let alone a big living person.
The little county lord suddenly jumped on the kang, tore open the two neatly folded quilts, shook vigorously, shook as fluffy as possible, threw it on the kang, and said to Xia Xun: "Hurry up, get in quickly." ” "Okay" Xia Xun couldn't be polite, and hurriedly got into the quilt, he was a big man, hiding in the quilt with his head and feet, the raised shape didn't look like no one, the little county lord was so anxious that he kicked straight with his feet: "You lie down, lie flat." ” Xia Xun was hit twice on his buttocks, poked his head out, and said with a bitter face: "County Lord, I can't lie down anymore, unless you dig a pit and bury me." ” Zhang Bao vaguely heard movement in the room, and couldn't help but wonder: "Girl, have you ever rested to fight against Gu Cheng, the governor of the rear army, and Zhang Bao, the deputy general, to see." ” "Oh, I'll wait a minute" The little county lord was in a hurry, and simply got into the quilt with his body, but he was more than half a foot away from Xia Xun, Xia Xun hurriedly said: "County lord, you go out quickly, the dignified county lord, you are actually lying in bed to see guests, who believes it?"
"That's right" Xu Ming'er, who was dizzy, hurriedly went out again, turned her head and looked, it was not at all, even if it was a winter quilt, it was extremely difficult to hide a Chengren inside, not to mention that this was a summer quilt, which was already pitifully thin, Xu Ming'er was so anxious that she turned around: "What to do, what can I do?"
Xia Xun gritted his teeth, lifted the quilt and jumped off the ground: "County Lord, open the door" Xu Ming'er said worriedly: "Then what should you do?"
Xia Xun said calmly: "Stretching out your head with a knife, shrinking your head is also a knife, if you have to die, you can't die too coldly."
Let's bet that they don't recognize me, if they don't recognize me, the county lord will say that he will summon me to inquire about the situation in Jiangnan, and he will prevaricate in the past, and the county lord will not pursue it if he says so. ” Xu Ming'er stomped her feet, so she had to bite the bullet and say to the door: "Please come in" The door creaked, Gu Cheng stepped in, and when he saw Xu Ming'er's appearance, he couldn't help but be anxious and happy: "Sure enough, it's the county lord" was just about to bow to him, and suddenly saw Xia Xun again, Gu Cheng couldn't help but be stunned, and said in his heart: "Although the county lord is still young, after all, there is a difference between men and women, this day is not early or late, how can there be a man in the room" Gu Cheng stared at Xia Xun attentively, faintly familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while, he only knew that Yang Xu of Jinyiwei single-handedly planned the shocking plan of the third son of Yanwang to escape from Nanjing City, but he had never had the opportunity to see the list posted on the street, and he had never dealt with Xia Xun head-on before, but the Governor's Mansion and Jinyiwei Yamen were next to each other, and Xia Xun often went in and out of the palace when he was in charge of the palace guards, and he had made several face-to-face greetings in and out, so he only knew his name and did not know his name.
However, Zhang Bao, who came in closely, was different, he recognized Xia Xun, when Xia Xun and the Yang family were in a lawsuit, Xu Zengshou personally heard the trial, he was the general of the station, and then met several times one after another, although they were not close to each other, Xia Xun's appearance he recognized, at this time, he saw Xia Xun standing on the side of the little county lord, Zhang Bao was shocked, and pulled out his saber with a "swish", and said sharply: "Yang Xu" "Yang Xu" Gu Cheng was shocked when he heard this, but he didn't expect that the person in front of him was the court criminal, Gu Cheng didn't say a word, choked the treasure knife out of the sheath, and Zhang Bao's two snow-bright steel knives, like open scissors, were put on Xia Xun's neck.
Xu Ming'er shouted urgently: "You are not allowed to kill him, even if he is a prisoner of the imperial court, he is also my savior, if you still put my Zhongshan Mansion in your eyes, don't touch him" "Damn, after all, people recognized it."
Xia Xun took a long breath, still maintained a calm expression on his face, and said with a smile: "Today, if Yang Xu dies under the two knives, Ming said, who will the two become under the knives?"
In the camp of King Yan, Zhu Di was looking at a sand table piled up in a simple way, Zhu Neng, Zhang Yu, the second prince Zhu Gaoxu and other generals were surrounded by him, Zhu Di looked carefully for a long time, and sighed softly: "The Marquis of Changxing is worthy of being the first good general of the Ming Dynasty, this deployment is really impervious and impeccable." ” Zhang Yu leaned over slightly and said: "Geng Bingwen moved outside the city of Zhending, and led the main force to be stationed on both sides of the Hutuo River in the south of the city, and the general Xu Kai led the troops to be stationed in the river, Pan Zhong camped in Juzhou, and Yang Song led the vanguard of 9,000 people to guard Yuxiong County.
Such a deployment, the canines and teeth are staggered, bite each other, and can attack, retreat and defend, echoing each other."
Zhu Di bowed his head and said: "Yes, if I lose the first battle, the Marquis of Changxing will rush forward like an arrow, go straight to my heart, and completely defeat me with a strong force."
If I can win, he can return to the nearest Zhending Mansion, and rely on Xiongcheng to hold on to help, this old fox is not easy to deal with. ” Zhu Gaoxu said puzzledly: "Dad, if you talk about the ability to defend the city, no one in my Ming Dynasty can be the right person of the Marquis of Changxing, he is so good, why don't you directly defend the city of Zhending?"
Zhu Di smiled slightly, and said: "He was ordered to recruit me, a rebellious man, what is the matter with the turtle cowering in Zhending City, Lao Geng has never fought with me, and now with this deployment, he is also testing my ability." ” Zhu Neng pondered for a moment and asked, "I wonder what His Highness and the generals think about this situation."
Zhu Di frowned and said: "The imperial army is 300,000, and now the number of people gathered around Zhending Mansion has reached 130,000, and our army is now full, but it is only 30,000 horses, and the enemy army is several times with me, so it is not appropriate to fight with it." ” Zhang Yu nodded and said: "What His Highness said is very true, according to the humble opinion, we should avoid its edge."
Geng Bingwen came with an order, he can't squat in Zhending City, watching us run away, we have to lead him by the nose and pull out his flaws, then it's good" As soon as he said this, he heard a noise outside, and someone shouted outside the tent: "Your Highness, Baihu Jieying heard that the imperial army has arrived under the city of Zhending, and he is afraid of death, and he led more than 100 people to escape from the barracks, and has now been arrested by us, please deal with it."
When Zhu Di heard this, his face changed suddenly, and Zhang Yu said: "Go and take a look."
Zhu Di's expression was extremely cold, and he said sharply: "Don't look at it, kill it."
More than 100 people, Zhang Yu couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, but when he saw Zhu Di's face clearly, he couldn't help but nodded, and said in a deep voice: "I understand my humble position."
On the school field, more than 100 soldiers knelt on the ground, tied their hands behind their backs, and pressed a steel knife on their necks.
The school field of thousands of people was silent.
A swallow-shaped banner hunts in the wind, and Zhang Yu, who is dressed all over, stands under the banner, his body is as tall as a pine, and his resolute facial contours are like knives under the reflection of the blazing torches: "The saying that military orders are like mountains, presumably every brother should have heard it since the day he put on this suit and picked up your knives and guns."
Military discipline is not strict, an army is a plate of scattered sand, the military prestige is sluggish, then the battle will be defeated, as a soldier, when the battle is ready to have the enemy without me, let him thousands of troops, strong enemies like a forest, only forward, never retreat.
Those who retreat from the battle and retreat are turning their backs on themselves and their robes, like such scum in the army, what should they do?"
The officers and men of the three armies shouted in unison: "Chop" Zhang Yu said in a loud voice: "I didn't hear clearly, be louder."
"Chop Chop" The officers and men of the three armies slammed their guns on the ground and struck their armor with swords, making a sonorous sound.
"The military order is like a mountain, Jieying and his subordinates, fleeing in fear of the battle, according to the order, they should obey the orders of His Royal Highness, and all of them will be killed and executed" Jieying knelt down, her eyes rolling, still thinking about how many military sticks she would have to suffer, and how to perfunctory it.
He knew that Zhu Di was now limited in soldiers and horses, and when he was employing people, every veteran was his eyeball, and he was reluctant to sacrifice in vain.
"Don't, Your Highness spares Lord Zhang, please intercede for the last general, the last general will never again" "Poof" The executioner was clean and neat, Zhang Yu gave an order, and when the cold light flashed, his head rolled to the ground, and for a while, the sword light on the school field fluctuated, and the blood light burst out, and in a moment, more than 100 people were ambushed on the spot, and people wanted to vomit in the bloody atmosphere.
Zhang Yu said coldly: "The court is unfair and the ministers are in charge, so it is difficult for His Highness to raise troops."
His Royal Highness is to support the community, where the righteousness lies, although there are many soldiers and horses in the imperial court, they are just chickens and dogs, and they are vulnerable.
With His Royal Highness under the command, we can be invincible against the Mobei Hulu, and we can also attack the unrighteous divisions of the imperial court.
As soon as the curtain was lifted, Zhang Yu walked in wrapped in blood, the wind outside the tent blew in, and the candle that Zhu Di held firmly in his hand couldn't help but sway, Zhang Yu hurriedly put down the curtain and said: "Your Highness, it's a humble duty" Zhu Di waved his hand, called his cousin, and said in a deep voice: "Shimei, this battle, we have to fight, we have to fight if we don't fight, not only to fight, but also to win."
This is the first battle after the imperial court rebel army arrived at Zhending, if I Zhu Di avoided not fighting, the army's heart was gone, and the army was defeated like a mountain, and there would be no need to fight in the future. ” Zhang Yu also knew that the soldiers of the three armies were not afraid of death, but the fear of the orthodox instinct of the imperial court, and now it was only Jieying who fled, and the rest of the soldiers and horses may not be free of military disorder, if this first battle is won, the military will be able to settle down, if it is to avoid war, although it is strategically right, but as the first battle with the Northern Expedition army of the imperial court, whether to fight or not is obviously of great significance outside the war.
He said with a solemn expression: "If this is the case, we can only concentrate on attacking Xiongxian with all our strength, if we can eat Yang Song's 10,000 horses, it will be a great victory."
Zhu Neng said: "Xu Kai and Pan Zhong are like crabs and shuangao, and Changxing Hou is wide open, he put Yang Song in front alone, I'm afraid he is trying to lure me in, if I am not careful" Zhu Di said gloomily: "The arrow is on the string, I have to send it, as for life and death, I Zhu Di has been out of the way since the martyrdom."
Zhang Yu and the other generals looked solemn, and they all leaned over and said: "Humble and swear to follow His Highness to the death" Zhu Di smiled faintly, leaned over to look at the sand table again, and a touch of imperceptible gloom quietly swept over his eyes: "Geng Bingwen is a veteran of the Wen Dynasty, attacking step by step, and defending is even more leaky, I am afraid that it will be difficult to deal with such a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and me, but where is my Zhuge Kongming?"
