"Damn it, it's another Ming army firearm." More than 300 steps away from the west city wall, Amin watched the pursuing Qing soldiers fall off their horses amidst the "bumping" gunshots, and shouted angrily: "These
The despicable and shameless Ming army has nothing to gain by relying on the power of firearms. If you have the guts, fight like a man with me."
The attendant next to him looked at the furious A Min and did not dare to say a word, letting him ride on the horse and curse his mother.
Following Amin's roar, there was a "bang", and the heavy city gate slowly closed as the last Ming army entered.
Not to mention Amin who was jumping around, Pang Gang finally had a chance to look at the city after entering the city. The dusty road was filled with dust due to the large influx of cavalry.
The cart was pulled into a nearby shady place, and clean water was brought for the mules and horses pulling the cart to drink. Dozens of army doctors in the team were busy treating the wounded soldiers. Everything was in order under the command of their respective commanders.
Implement.
Pang Gang didn't bother to rest, so he ordered Wang Zhi to count the casualties and asked the cavalry, which was currently out of duty, to help the transport troops and medical officers, and then led his soldiers up the city wall.
After climbing the city wall, they saw many North Korean officers and soldiers along the way. When they saw the posture of Pang Gang and his group, they knew that this must be a high-ranking official from the Shang Kingdom, and they all saluted him respectfully.
Pang Gang hurriedly came behind the city wall and saw that the west wall was already full of riflemen. Looking from behind the crenellations, the Qing soldiers seemed to know how powerful they were and retreated to a distance of more than 300 steps.
He didn't dare to rush to the city wall to show off his power as before.
"call!"
Seeing that the Qing soldiers finally stopped attacking, Pang Gang let out a long breath. The battle situation just now was very dangerous. If the riflemen on the city wall hadn't suppressed the Qing soldiers' pursuit in time, he and his group would have lost many more people before they could return.
Come on, it seems that I was a little too confident. I thought that with the new rifles I could ignore the fine cavalry of the Qing soldiers. This was a big mistake in itself. It should be noted that before automatic weapons appeared, the cavalry relied on its high-speed maneuverability.
Sex and sharp attacks are still the protagonists on the battlefield, but it is so naive to think that you can be invincible with these front-mounted Mini rifles.
Just when Pang Gang was doing self-examination, there was a commotion ahead. Pang Gang looked up and saw a group of people coming in front, led by two middle-aged people, a man and a woman.
This man was wearing a red dragon robe with a thin face. There was a touch of joy on his face at this moment. The golden dragon on the dragon robe sparkled in the sunset. Next to him was a charming and charming man.
, a beautiful middle-aged woman in her thirties, and behind them were dozens of people wearing red and yellow clothes, who looked like North Korean ministers, hurriedly walking towards Pang Gang.
Standing behind them, a man in his forties wearing blue clothes and with a white face and no beard shouted in a sharp voice: "The king of Korea has arrived with his concubine!"
When Pang Gang heard this, it turned out that the leader of North Korea couldn't wait for him to come to see him, so he ran over in person. It seemed that he was really anxious. The leader of a country came to see him in person, so he had to give him face.
After all, although he is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, he is actually Prince Xubi in name, and his rank is much higher than his own.
Pang Gang took a few steps forward and cupped his hands and said, "Pang Gang, the commander of the Qingzhou capital, General Dingyuan, and the three-state counselor guarding the East Road, has met His Highness!"
"General Pang, there is no need to be polite!" Li Zhu saw a tall Ming general in front of him, wearing a mandarin duck jacket and a chainmail, bowing his hands in salute. He quickly stepped forward and said with a smile, "General Pang."
Traveling thousands of miles to aid North Korea, this high-spirited and honorable attitude is truly admirable. If the general had not come to my aid in time, I would have passed away with my concubine."
"Your Highness, thank you. The Ming Dynasty and North Korea are allied brothers separated by a strip of water. It is natural for them to help and protect each other. Why do you need to be polite, Your Highness?" Pang Gang had seen too many of these cliches and empty words on TV in his later generations, and he just spoke out.
ah.
However, the reason why empty words and clichés have been prevalent for so long must have their uses. You see, the smiles on the faces of the leader of North Korea and the dozen or so ministers behind him at this moment show the power of these polite words.
Concubine Xian, who was standing next to Li Zhu, nodded secretly. Although this general was a warrior, his speech and behavior were quite polite. It seemed that Xuezhu would be a good destination if he followed him. It turns out that above
When Pu Shunyi came back to report, he also specifically mentioned General Pang in Qingzhou and said that Princess Jiayi was now living in General Pang's mansion. The implication was that Her Royal Highness the Princess was already living in General Pang's mansion.
Lived in the inner courtyard. You know what and what...
Although Concubine Xian agreed with her daughter to go to the Ming Dynasty to seek help last time, as a mother, her concern for her children is unmatched by others. In these days, she was always worried about whether her daughter would be criticized by others without her parents around in the Ming Dynasty.
Bullying, unaccustomed to eating habits, etc. Although Pu Shunyi had already reported to her that Princess Jiayi lived in the mansion of the commander of Qingzhou, the general was a third-grade military general of the Ming Dynasty, with a high position, and he seemed to like Jiayi very much.
Princess, although he already has a wife, he will not treat her badly.
Having said that, Concubine Xian is still worried about her. Now she sees that her son-in-law has personally led troops to help. He has grown taller, and although his appearance cannot be said to be that of a jade tree, he still has good features and a dignified appearance, which makes him worthy.
Having sex with her own daughter, thinking of this, Concubine Xian couldn't help but look at Pang Gang with a mother-in-law look that became more and more interesting the more she looked at her son-in-law.
Pang Gang also felt that something was wrong with the way the virtuous concubine looked at him. There was a hint of heat in this kind of kindness, which made Pang Gang scratch his head a little. Of course, he would not be so arrogant as to think that he would be the best when a beautiful woman appeared.
She would cry and throw herself into her arms. I guess it was for Li Xuezhu's sake that I could enjoy this kind of gaze.
After the two parties met and chatted for a while, Li Zhu suggested that someone take the troops Pang Gang brought to go down to rest first and recharge their batteries before defending the city tomorrow. Pang Gang thought about it and nodded in agreement. After all, he was a long way away.
Come here, the sergeants carried supplies as soon as they got off the ship, and then marched to get here. Their bodies were already exhausted.
Seeing that the Qing soldiers immediately retreated as soon as the reinforcements arrived, Li Zhu was in a good mood. He said with a smile: "General Pang immediately overwhelmed the Qing soldiers as soon as they arrived. It can be seen that the Qing soldiers are really unstoppable. I admire you so much. Now I invite you to join me."
Come to the house and tell me, so that I can show my friendship as a landlord."
Pang Gang also laughed and said: "I dare not ask for my ear even if I wish!"
"Okay, okay, general, let's go together!" Li Zhu came over and extended his hand in a gesture of invitation. Pang Gang also raised his hand in a gesture of invitation, and both of them walked down the tower together.
Everyone came to Li Zhu's temporary residence in Nanshan Seoul. It was a small courtyard with only a few houses surrounding it.
Li Zhu and his wife, Pang Gang and the ministers entered the courtyard on the east side. After both parties took their seats, Li Zhu, who was sitting on the main seat, looked at the ministers around him with a satisfied look on his face, and a feeling of excitement rose in his heart.
The look of satisfaction.
"A few days ago, these ministers objected to me sending the princess to the Ming Dynasty to ask for reinforcements, but what happened now? Not only did the reinforcements come, but my son-in-law came in person. There is such a third-level official who holds heavy troops in the Ming Dynasty.
In the outer courtyard, let’s see who else dares to have second thoughts.”
Regarding Pang Gang, although Li Zhu called him a general on the surface, he actually regarded him as his father-in-law in his heart. He was very satisfied with Pang Gang's arrival so quickly. This also proved that his daughter was blowing pillow wind in his ears.
Still very successful.
After everyone sat down, a maid came forward to serve tea. Li Shu picked up the tea cup and took two sips and said: "General Pang, you came to the rescue of North Korea this time and saved millions of people in North Korea.
Millions of people thanked me."
"I don't dare to take it seriously. I just fulfilled my duty as a general." Pang Gang shook his head and said, "But there are still tens of thousands of Qing soldiers surrounding the city. It's not the time to celebrate yet. You should wait until all the Qing soldiers are gathered to express your gratitude."
Let’s talk about it after we get out of North Korea.”
"Being brave and resourceful, not arrogant in victory and not discouraged in defeat, he is indeed a great general!" Hearing Pang Gang speak like this, Li Zhu became even more satisfied with his son-in-law. He raised his head and said to all the officials in the room.
"My dear friends, the Qing army is attacking the city fiercely and our army is unable to resist. Now that General Pang has arrived, I would like to hand over the command of the troops and horses in the city to General Pang. What do you think?"
As soon as Li Zhu said his words, everyone was shocked. Is it possible to hand over the command of the Korean army to the Ming army generals?
An old North Korean official wearing a red robe immediately stood up and said: "Your Highness, although the Ming Dynasty is the mother country of North Korea, there has been no example of letting other countries command troops since the founding of North Korea. This matter depends on your Highness."
Think twice."
Li Zhu was displeased when he heard this and said: "Why did Li Yanshu say this? Today's battle has proved that our soldiers alone are unable to resist the Qing army. Since reinforcements have come from our mother country, we should let the generals of our mother country
The only way to lead our country's soldiers is to jointly fight against the Qing soldiers. Is there anything wrong with that?"
The official said without any sign of weakness: "Although the Ming Dynasty is my mother country, as a foreign country, is it inappropriate for North Korea to allow generals from other countries to command its own troops? As a court official, Wei Chen believes that this matter
It needs to be considered in the long term.”
Pang Gang on the side couldn't help but feel a little angry when he heard this. Although he didn't care about being the leader of North Korea's tofu soldiers, anyone who was so denied always felt a little uncomfortable.
"Ahem..."
Just as Pang Gang was about to speak, a North Korean official on the other side coughed a few times and then started speaking......
