Xu Shiyi originally did not intend to preach anymore.
Because the relationship between father and son has become very tense during this time.
But after seeing Xu Yingwei washing his eldest grandson's feet, Xu Shiyi couldn't hold it back.
"Youzhen." Xu Shiyi frowned and scolded, "You are now a general who commands thousands of armies. How can you wash the feet of a child? This is really unbecoming and outrageous."
As a result, before I could finish speaking, my ears felt a sharp pain.
But it was his softest earlobe that was grabbed by his wife.
"Hey, a gentleman should speak but not move his hands. Madam, if you let go, it will hurt."
"I am a woman, not a gentleman." However, the lady finally gave up.
Xu Shiyi hurriedly ran away ten steps away, stamped his feet and cursed: "Only women and villains are difficult to raise, and my husband's sincerity will not be deceived by me."
"Old man, I think your skin is itchy again. I'll tighten it for you today." Mrs. Xu pretended to give chase, but Xu Shiyi quickly covered his face and ran away.
It's an insult to politeness, it's really an insult to politeness.
The young Xu Xiaowen giggled again.
"This old thing." After scolding Mrs. Xu, she turned around and turned into a smile when she faced Xu Yingwei and his son. "My good grandson, come here, let grandma hold you."
"Mom, dad wants to save face, don't pull his ears in the future."
Xu Yingwei also wanted to laugh, but he held back his laughter.
"What face does he want? Give him face so that he can take a concubine?"
"Taking concubines?" Xu Yingwei felt unbelievable that such a thing happened?
"Before you came home, the old man read Zhuangzi every day, and he only read one sentence: Duke Ling had three wives, and they bathed together. Do you think he wanted to take concubines?"
Xu Yingwei couldn't help but laugh.
Mrs. Xu suddenly said again: "But you, son, should you take a concubine? Sanniang has to serve your parents-in-law at home. You can't have no one around you to take care of your daily life. You must have someone who understands the cold and the heat."
Shi Sanniang, who was picking vegetables next to her, couldn't help but slapped her hands, and her face didn't look very good.
But Xu Yingwei shook his head and said: "Mom, I was just about to tell you this. After the family leave, my son plans to take Sanniang and Xiaowen to Nanjing. Nanjing has a better private school, and Xiaowen can directly enter the private school to learn new skills.
study."
Shi Sanniang's expression relaxed, but Mrs. Xu's face was full of disappointment and she couldn't say anything.
However, at this moment, a fast horse came galloping from the official road at the entrance of the village like lightning.
"The Holy One has an edict, and Xu Gei is urgently summoned back to the capital to admonish him! The Holy One has an edict, and he is urgently summoning Xu Gei to remonstrate and return to the capital to listen to it!"
A few potatoes in Shi Sanniang's hand fell into the sink again, and she couldn't go to Nanjing this time.
Xu Yingwei's face also became serious. His family leave lasted for three months. He originally had to wait until after the Lantern Festival before returning to Beijing, but now the Holy Father actually asked him to return to Beijing early?
Is something big happening?
…
In Xinjin, Sichuan.
The Ming army is launching a fierce attack on the low-rise Xinjin County.
After more than a year of conquests in the east and west, the rebel armies in Sichuan have been basically pacified by Li Xiangjun. Now Li Xiangjun has joined forces with Qin Liangyu to launch a fierce attack on Zhang Xianzhong's Daxi Army.
Xinjin County, as the southern barrier of Chengdu, became the main battlefield for both sides.
However, the resistance of the Daxi Army was extremely tenacious, because Xinjin County was already the last barrier. Once Xinjin County fell, the Ming army could march straight in and fight all the way to the city of Chengdu.
Qin Liangyu, wearing cotton armor, stood solemnly on the chariot, surrounded by Li Xiangjun, Ge Nenniang and other female generals.
Standing on the roof of the five-foot-high Chao Chao, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Xinjin County in front of you, and you can even see the battlefield outside the south gate of Xinjin clearly.
I saw soldiers from various prefectures in eastern Sichuan pouring under the city wall like a tide, and followed dozens of ladders to attack the city.
The south wall of Xinjin County was crowded with black soldiers, really like a colony of foraging ants, and the not-so-majestic Xinjin County in front was the prey.
However, this prey is still resisting.
Langya Pai, Yasha La, golden juice and gray bottle, and Menghuo oil.
Especially the fire oil. If barrels of hot fire oil were poured down and a few torches were thrown, the base of the city wall would be plunged into a sea of flames in an instant.
Seeing this, a look of regret flashed across Li Xiangjun's pretty face.
The poor people by the Wuding River are like people in a spring boudoir dream. Their wives and children are afraid that they will never be able to wait for the return of their husbands and fathers.
"Girl, don't you think it's cruel?"
Qin Liangyu said quietly: "After a battle, hundreds or even thousands of living people will be gone."
"Master, I know." Li Xiangjun nodded gently, and the look in his beautiful eyes became firm again, "Since it is a war, people will die eventually, and these soldiers will not die in vain. It is precisely because of their bloody sacrifices.
, in order to achieve the resurgence of the Ming Dynasty and the people's living and working in peace and contentment."
"That's right, kindness doesn't lead an army."
Qin Liangyu's voice gradually became colder.
"If you want to be a good general, you must be ruthless."
"Before a war begins, you must be as prepared as possible and be as considerate as possible to your soldiers."
"But once the war starts, you can't see any living people in your eyes. All the soldiers are just piles of chips, just cold numbers. Do you understand?"
"Disciple, I would like to be taught." Li Xiangjun said solemnly.
While the two masters were talking, the soldiers from eastern Sichuan finally stormed the city.
As time went by, more and more Ming troops stormed the city, and the Great Western Army finally collapsed.
"Empress, Commander, the bandits have collapsed!" Ge Nenniang immediately shouted excitedly.
Along with Ge Nenniang's cry, huge cheers also sounded from the top of Xinjin County ahead.
Li Xiangjun took a deep breath and said to Qin Liangyu: "Master, we will have a decisive battle with Thief Zhang next."
"It's possible that Zhang Xianzhong will escape. This traitor is always very alert and will flee decisively when the situation is not right." Qin Liangyu was worried that Zhang Xianzhong would escape to northern Sichuan in advance.
While he was talking, a fast horse galloped from the direction of Meizhou.
In the distance, I heard the messenger on horseback shouting loudly: "Urgent delivery, urgent delivery to Nanjing!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Nanjing Express?!" Qin Liangyu's face changed slightly, and he quickly got out of the nest car with Li Xiangjun.
After reading the urgent delivery, Li Xiangjun's face turned solemn and turned to ask Qin Liangyu: "Master, what should I do?"
Qin Liangyu pondered for a while and then said: "Give me the order to abandon Xinjin County and withdraw the entire army to Pengshan Pass to defend it!"
"Ah? Abandon Xinjin and retreat to Pengshan Pass to defend?" Ge Nenniang asked in astonishment, "Why is this? It took a lot of effort to attack Xinjin County, and then we can directly attack Chengdu. Why give up?"
"Young lady!" Li Xiangjun's pretty face sank slightly as she reprimanded, "This is a military order."
"Yes." Ge Nanniang agreed, then turned and left in a depressed tone.
Qin Liangyu and Li Xiangjun turned their attention to the northeast at the same time.
Ming Dynasty, finally started the Northern Expedition.
Unfortunately, they both couldn't catch up.
…
Chengdu, the former Prince of Shu's Mansion, Chengyun Hall.
Sun Kewang [Zhang Kewang] knelt in the main hall with a disgraced face.
Zhang Xianzhong held a riding crop in his hand and was beating Sun Kewang crazily on his body with his head covered.
"Idiot, you idiot, you idiot, my army of 70,000 people, I let you ruin my army of 70,000 people like this, why don't you die for me, go to hell, you idiot!"
Zhang Xianzhong was beating and cursing at the same time.
Sun Kewang was beaten until his flesh was bloody and he did not dare to say a word.
Ai Nengqi and Liu Wenxiu wanted to persuade him, but they dared not.
Wang Zhaoling sneered. He had long disliked Sun Kewang.
After smoking for a long time and feeling tired, Zhang Xianzhong finally agreed to stop.
"Prime Minister, give the order quickly." Zhang Xianzhong gasped and ordered Wang Zhaoling, "Li Xiangjun, this little girl's military power is too strong, I will go to northern Sichuan to avoid the limelight for the time being."
"There are children from Dingguo in northern Sichuan, so their lives are safe."
"However, I will come back sooner or later."
"At that time, we will not only retake Chengdu, but also capture this little bitch Li Xiangjun alive."
After a pause, he gritted his teeth and said, "I have to kill this little bitch like Li Xiangjun."
"Accept the order." Wang Zhaoling received the order and was about to walk out when he saw Li Dingguo walking in like a storm.
"Father!" Li Dingguo entered the hall, immediately knelt down on his knees, and begged Zhang Xianzhong, "I came late to save you, and I frightened my father. I will be punished by death."
"Dingguo boy, why are you here?"
Zhang Xianzhong was shocked and said: "Could it be that the northern part of Sichuan is lost?"
"Father, there is no danger in northern Sichuan." Li Dingguo said, "I heard that Chengdu is in danger, so I led my troops to come to protect you."
"That's good, as long as northern Sichuan is not lost." Zhang Xianzhong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing this. As long as northern Sichuan is not lost, the Daxi Army will not be homeless and no longer need to be a bandit.
To be honest, Zhang Xianzhong was really fed up with being a bandit.
I had never enjoyed a comfortable life before, so I didn't feel anything. But after getting used to a stable life in Chengdu in the past few years, Zhang Xianzhong really didn't want to wander around anymore.
Li Dingguo said: "Father, how is the situation now?"
"Now..." Just when Zhang Xianzhong didn't know what to say, a eunuch suddenly came in.
"Long live my Lord, the Ming army suddenly retreated." The eunuch screamed, "Tanma reported that the Ming army that had just captured Xinjin County suddenly retreated to Pengshan Pass, and the Ming army has retreated!"
"Is there such a thing?" Zhang Xianzhong was stunned when he heard this.
I have been fighting for most of my life and have never experienced anything like this.
The Ming army was actually willing to spit out the fat that had been eaten into his mouth?
Or in other words, what kind of trick is this little girl Li Xiangjun playing?
For more than half a year, Zhang Xianzhong has really frightened Li Xiangjun. You said that you are a famous prostitute in Qinhuai. If you don't play well in the Qinhuai River, why come to Sichuan to fight? What kind of ability is it to bully our old Zhang?
In the end, Zhang Xianzhong decided to let Li Dingguo go to Xinjin County to have a look.
"Dingguo, take your troops to Xinjin County to check out the situation."
Zhang Xianzhong said: "If the Ming army really retreats, you can stay there."
"My son, I have received the order." Li Dingguo didn't say any nonsense, he received the order and left.
