Chapter 586: Brightening

Deng Chengzhi suddenly remembered a saying in Taiping Guangji, "It is better to be a peaceful dog than a person in troubled times." Among these 100,000 refugees, there are few 60-year-old boys, and there are few three-year-old boys. Deng Chengzhi knows why it is like this.

, the old and weak have long died. Along the way, from the land of Ganzhou to the grassland, many people have frozen to death and died of illness. The land of Ganzhou has been in chaos for many years, and people are not as good as dogs, thousands of miles away from the land.

Shaanxi has not been raining for many years, and the drought-resistant crops organized by Lord Fu have not been harvested at all, especially in some counties near the Yellow River, Shenmu, Yulin, Suide, Huayin, Qingjian and other places, drought-resistant crop yields.

It is still very high, can the Yellow River be short of water? However, as soon as the bandits pass by, they eat up like locusts. Lord Fu only has eight thousand soldiers and horses but cannot take care of them, so he can only barely protect the important prefecture.

If there were no bandits and encountering good officials like Lord Fu, the officials and the people might not be able to survive the years of severe drought.

After stopping, Deng Chengzhi saw a girl holding a bowl of porridge and licking the bottom of the bowl pitifully. Her heart softened and she took out a piece of cheese from her waist. She wanted to hand it over but was embarrassed to find that the weather was too cold and the cheese was frozen.

After that, the girl looked at him with a thrill of eyes. Deng Chengzhi felt a sudden tug in his heart. Just as his hands were right, a slim hand reached out in front of him, holding a bowl of hot porridge in his hand.

Looking up, a frail girl in her 20s was pretty and charming, smiling at him.

Deng Chengzhi's tender face turned red and said vaguely: "Thank you, my wife."

After taking the white porridge, he stuffed it into the hand of the thin and thin girl with little meat on her body, he held her hand and walked away with a reserved hand. A chuckle came from behind. Deng Chengzhi wanted to slap himself a few times. What should he do?

But I can't look back at this time. If I turn around and smile, my masculinity will be gone. Many of my subordinates are still watching, and I can't bear to worry about my face.

After giving porridge, people's hearts gradually calmed down. Who would rebel if you have some food to eat? It was just that the little ladies who gave porridge were exhausted, and they were sweating profusely. It was cold and sweating on their foreheads. Deng Chengzhi

He was shameless and wanted to ask his troops to help him. At this time, a large group of wives broke out in the fort. Several pretty wives led a group of strong women, and the people who gave the porridge were enough. Deng Chengzhi felt ashamed that he had prepared for it.

ah.

Although ashamed, he pretended not to move and asked softly: "These little ladies are so kind."

An old soldier who had been in the army for many years chuckled and said, "Don't anyone have these wives? They are all helpers in the laundry department of the Grand Marshal's Laundry Bureau, and they are also pitiful women without fathers and mothers."

Deng Chengzhi was a little embarrassed. He made some military achievements to be promoted to a sentry officer shortly after he joined the army from his hometown to Kaiyuan. He really didn't know the origin of these girls' families. At his age, he was always promoted to a sentry officer. He knew that

It must be the general who asked him about it. He was only able to lead a sentry of 120 people in view of his grandfather, Governor Deng. He was young and had little experience and had no foundation in Kaiyuan Town Army.

However, his subordinates believed in this descendant of Deng family. He was a tiger general.

When the pretty girl turned around, Yingying smiled, Deng Chengzhi's face was burning. This was such a lively girl.

"Did General Shou touch Fan's heart? That is the bead of General Li's family on the left wing of the town army, a regular visitor in the general's mansion, and his boudoir name is Wang Xiu'er."

Deng Chengzhi looked at Gu Pansheng's girl and felt aroused his heart. At this time, a cold wind blew by, but Deng Chengzhi's heart aroused his ambitions. He won the fame immediately. Is the little lady of General Li's family? That's not high.

Unattainable. At the beginning of the next spring, Liaozhen and Jianlu will have a bloody battle, so they will use the knife in Deng's hand to kill him with a bright future.

Half a month later, in the first month, 100,000 refugees from the pass arrived in Baicheng one after another.

Some of the 100,000 refugees entered the auxiliary barracks, and some stayed in Kaiyuan to make a living. About 60,000 people finally followed the army to expedition to the north of the desert, and established settlements after settlements on the grassland, among which more than 30,000 people gathered in the Chechen area alone.

.As the Han people expanded to the north, there were more and more such settlements, which was of great significance.

On the 16th day of the first lunar month, the Beiguan period was opened.

Macheng arranged a battalion of 500 cavalry to escort Sun Chengzong over mountains and ridges, and take the mountain road to Jinzhou to pass the imperial edict. Now Jianlu huddled on the front line of Shenyang, so it should be safe to walk the mountain road. Before leaving, the two bid farewell, and Sun Chengzong's trip was on his way.

The heavy and long way to go. Whether the two troops in Guanning and Jinzhou can be rectified and strengthened the weakest link in the Liaodong war depends entirely on the ability of this imperial teacher and is worth looking forward to.

Ma Cheng pondered for a long time and still persuaded him. Changing commanders at the last minute is a taboo in military strategists. Yuan Chonghuan is still a little military talent and has a great influence in the Jinning army. If he is willing to lower his head, he will no longer be a soldier.

With a arrogant attitude, even if you pick the general in a slut, there is no better coach than him.

Sun Chengzong was quite surprised and sighed: "Your mind is worse than that of Kaicheng."

Ma Cheng was modest and said freely: "Are you a single husband? Ma doesn't have the patience. You are above all people. It's so cold that you can't stand the high ground. Life is short and you should enjoy it in time. Being a single husband is too tiring."

Sun Chengzong laughed and revealed his sincerity: "I will rely on you. If Yuan Chonghuan is of great use, why should I be this evil person?"

The two looked at each other and smiled without saying a word, and recalled the scene when they first met on Imperial College Street, as if it was yesterday.

After bowing, Ma Cheng ordered, "Go out, tens of millions, protect Sun Gong for all."

"I will receive the order under the bidding and will definitely serve the commander with death!"

Five hundred iron cavalrymen turned over their horses, and Sun Chengzong also tightened his sable robe and got on the carriage. The iron cavalry guarded the carriage into the mountain. At this time, Huang Taiji's messenger arrived and brought a secret letter from Huang Taiji, Yan Da

Jin was willing to exchange the corpses of Hai Lanzhu, Dorgon, Abatai and others for the humble tone in the letter. The humble tone in the letter was amazing.

Ma Cheng would not take a Hai Lanzhu seriously, but Huang Taiji's attitude was very subtle.

In the letter, the lord of the Later Jin Dynasty was extremely low and he even started to have a friendship, saying that Jianzhou was originally a territorial enthronement of the Ming Dynasty, and Aisin Jueluo's family was originally a territorial enthronement of the Ming Dynasty, and was established in the early years of Wanli.

The Zuowei of Zhou still obeyed the orders of the Ming Dynasty and paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty in the 23rd year of Wanli. The implication is that the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty were originally a family. If the father and son of the Liaodong Hou were willing to quit the army, the Later Jin Dynasty would be willing to

The Ming Dynasty relied on its rulings and restored the old.

Holding Huang Taiji's letter, Ma Cheng felt quite complacent. This is the surrender of the Lord of a country. Holding this surrender is floating in his heart, as if he can reach out to capture the bright moon in the sky. If he stomps his foot, Liaodong will shake.

With a shake, the sense of accomplishment was extremely intoxicating. I tore the yellow paper in two pieces, and still got into a burning greed. This set of slow-moving strategies, pretending to be obedient and wearing a high hat, may be able to make some mistakes.
