Chapter Eleven Deploying Troops and Generals

Qingyang has a long history. It was called Guifang during the Xia and Shang Dynasties, and was the land of Liu Yi, the ancestor of the Zhou Dynasty. It was called Beibin during the Western Zhou Dynasty. It was the land of Rongdi during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and once belonged to the Yiqu Rong Kingdom. In the 35th year of King Zhao of Qin (B.C.

'2 years), the Qin Dynasty destroyed the Qurong Kingdom of Yi and established Beidi County along the Han and Jin Dynasties. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the Western Wei Dynasty, Shuozhou was established, with jurisdiction over Pengyang (today's Xifeng District) and Yangzhou (today's Zhengning County).

Binzhou Zhaoyu County, Ding'an County, Xiangle County, Xiangle County, and Dule County (all within the territory of today's Ning County) were abandoned during the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Qingzhou was established in the 16th year of Emperor Kaihuang of the Sui Dynasty (AD 596), and during the Daye Period of Emperor Yang

It was changed to Honghua County and administered seven counties: Heshui, Maling, Huachi, Guide, Luoyuan, Honghua and Hongde. It was renamed Qingzhou in the early Tang Dynasty and later changed to Anhua County and Hue County.

In 758 years), Qingzhou was established and promoted to the Anding Army, which governed 10 counties including Hue, Heshui, Lepan, Maling, Tongchuan, Huachi, Yanqing, Huai'an, Luoyuan, and Fangqu; and the separate Ningzhou (

Jurisdiction over the five counties of Pengyuan, Pengyang, Anding, Xiangle, and Zhenning), and Yuanzhou (administering parts of present-day Zhenyuan and Pingliang) belong to Shaanxi Guannai Road. In the Liang Dynasty of the Five Dynasties, it was changed to Wu Jingjun, and later it was renamed Qingzhou.

It governs Hue, Tongchuan, Pengyuan, Lepan, Huachi (in today’s Heshui County), Tongyuan (in today’s Huan County), Zhenning (now Zhengning), Anding, Dingping, Xiangle, and Ningzhou (

In today's Ning County), Tongyuan Army and other 8 counties, 1 state and 1 army. In the first year of Jianlong of the Song Dynasty (950 AD), Qingzhou Tuanlian was established, which belonged to Shaanxi Road; in the early Qiande period, Qingzhou was restored, and in the first year of Qingli (1041 AD)

) was renamed Huanqing Road; in the seventh year of Zhenghe (1117 AD), he was promoted to Qingyang Junjiedu, and in the seventh year of Xuanhe (1119 AD), it was renamed Qingyang Prefecture, with jurisdiction over Anhua, Heshui and Pengyang counties, and the branch

Huanzhou and Ningzhou both belong to Yongxing Military Road, and Yuanzhou (today's Zhenyuan) belongs to Qinfeng Road. In the early Jin Dynasty, Qingyang was changed to Anxi, and Xuan was changed to Ding'an Jiedu; it was established in the second year of Huangtong (1142 AD).

The four prefectures of Qingyuan Road, Qingzhou, Huan, Yuan, and Ning all belong to Qingyuan Road.

Later Yuanting changed Qingyuan Road into Qingyang Mansion. Qingyang City is located at the intersection of the three boundaries of Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia. It is known as the granary of Gansu and Shaanxi. Zhang Liangchen relied on the abundant grain stored in the city to confront the Ming army with the mentality of waiting for work.

Xu Da besieged it and still failed to conquer it after more than a month. As soon as Tang He's reinforcements arrived, he immediately joined the siege battle.

'Boom, boom, boom...' Dakui held a kitchen knife and chopped up the radish and cabbage handed over by Lao Jun. No matter whether they were neatly chopped or not, he just chopped them randomly. Even if the chops are uneven in size, they can be eaten. Lao Jun

We were also very busy, cutting meat, steaming steamed buns, and steaming steamed buns.

At this moment, the Ming army was attacking the city and suffered heavy casualties. Therefore, the rear army specially prepared 3,000 pigs to feed the siege army.

There were hundreds of cauldrons on the ground in front of the rear army's tent, and soldiers were guarding each cauldron to refill the fire. Each cauldron was filled with hot soup, fragrant and full of oil, which was really delicious.

It's terrible. In the pot is either cabbage stew or radish stew. How many people have fought in ancient times? Since January, I don't know how many soldiers have spilled their blood on the battlefield. Whether they are alive or dead, let the soldiers eat better.

The only thing Xu Dan can do to the soldiers now is.

Although he was just chopping vegetables with a knife, Da Kui had been busy for nearly three hours. Others would change people every half an hour, but Da Kui had good endurance. Even though others changed shifts several times, Da Kui remained tireless.

Although it was almost early winter, Dakui's military uniform was already soaked with sweat.

While the gang leader army was busy, Pang Heihu led a group of people into the rear barracks.

"Brother Dakui, brother Dakui!" Pang Heihu shouted all the way. Dakui was busy with his work. When he heard the shouting, he couldn't help but stop what he was doing and raised his head. Pang Heihu looked in the crowd for a long time before he found where Dakui was. Then Pang Heihu

He ran up to Dakui in three steps and took Dakui's arm: "Let's go, I have something important to discuss with you."

"Brother Pang Pang, if you have something to say, just say it, why are you pulling and pulling?" Dakui said, turning back and putting the kitchen knife back on the chopping board.

"Oh, I'm not looking for you, it's Brother Tang who's looking for you." As he spoke, he pulled Da Kui far away. In desperation, Da Kui had no choice but to follow Pang Heihu and trot out of the camp gate.

Fast horses had been prepared outside the camp. Pang Heihu and Dakui each mounted their horses and ran towards the front camp, followed by the soldiers behind them.

Entering the former army camp, you can hear the roar of artillery in the distance and the sound of killing. This is the critical moment of the siege. I don't know why Brother Tang sent Pang Heihu to look for him.

Pang Heihu and Dakui got off their horses and came to a tent. Pang Heihu said: "Brother Dakui, we are here, go in."

Dakui was a little confused, but he still opened the door of the tent and entered the tent. When he saw it, Xu Da was sitting in the main hall wearing a handsome robe, accompanied by his generals on both sides, including Tang He.

Seeing this formation, Dakui was not only a little dizzy. He was about to exit the camp, but was stopped by Pang Heihu behind him.

"Brother Dakui, it's Marshal and Brother Tang who want to see you for something." Pang Heihu chuckled, then walked to the side and stood.

"Captain Zhang, I have something to ask you, and you need to answer it one by one." Xu Da said slowly and softly.

Dakui was stunned, then he immediately held up his hands and said, "If the marshal has anything to say, just ask him. Zhang Dakui will tell you everything he knows."

Xu Da nodded and then asked: "You have fought against Kuokou Timur. How is his ability?"

After hearing this, Dakui thought for a moment, and then replied: "This man's martial arts skills..." Dakui was halfway through his sentence, looking at the generals in the tent, and then said: "No one in this tent is invincible." As soon as he said this.

, not only caused a commotion.

"Oh?" Xu Da couldn't help but smile softly when he heard this, and then asked again: "How are Bi Tang and General's martial arts skills?"

Dakui thought for a moment and said, "Brother Tang can block the hundreds of moves of Timur."

Xu Da nodded and then said: "How does it compare to you?"

Dakui couldn't open his mouth when he heard the words. If he told the truth, Tang He would lose face. If he told lies, he would be bullying the army. (There is no joke in the army) After a long while, Dakui said: "I once fought against Timur.

, fought for more than 200 rounds and narrowly won."

"Hahahaha, so there are still people in our army who can defeat Wang Baobao?" Xu Da's smile was far-fetched. There are many powerful generals under his command, but those who can really fight with Wang Baobao are very rare. Now Wang Baobao's army is approaching

In Baili, to this day, Xu Da still has to rely on a military commander to support his appearance. How can Xu Da lose his face?

When Dakui heard what Xu Da said, he felt a little upset in his heart. He only heard Xu Da say coldly: "This is not a large tent of the Chinese army. I should treat your words as a joke. Please go and wait outside the tent." Dakui bowed his hands and bowed out.

I left the camp.

In the camp, Xu Da was discussing countermeasures with the generals, and only one person said: "Marshal, the last general is asking for a fight." As soon as he said this, all the generals in the tent also asked for a fight.

When the generals were fighting fiercely, Xu Da mused: "Kuankuo Timur is invincible and invincible, and he is also proficient in military skills. No matter who you are waiting for, you must be careful."

As the generals were discussing, Tang He asked for an order: "General Tang He would like to issue a military order." As soon as this statement came out, there was not only a commotion in the tent. Dakui heard it standing outside the door and was about to go in to stop him, but unexpectedly

The two soldiers guarding the door blocked the way with their spears.

"General Tang, do you know what you are talking about?" Xu Da's voice was calm and authoritative.

"The general's request for orders is not to defeat Timur, but to stop Timur's army before the marshal conquers Qingyang." Tang He said sincerely, and then added: "As long as Tang He is alive,

, never let a single soldier of the Yuan army pass through Lanzhou."

Xu Da was silent for a moment, and then said: "That's it, I promise you to lead 50,000 troops and horses, and also assign you 5,000 crossbowmen to assist in the battle." Now that the siege of the city is in full swing, the 5,000 crossbowmen are already Xu Daneng.

The maximum limit for allocation.

"Thank you, Marshal." Tang He thanked him and immediately left the tent. Seeing Dakui outside the tent, Tang He smiled and said, "Brother, would you like to send troops with me?"

Seeing that Tang He was talking and laughing freely at this moment, Dakui smiled and said: "I am your gang leader. Naturally, I will go wherever Brother Tang goes." The two looked at each other and smiled.

"In that case, I'll go back and prepare first. Maybe Marshal has something to say to you, so you can wait here." Tang He smiled and patted Dakui on the shoulder before leaving the camp on foot.

Dakui stood guard at the door of the camp. After a while, all the generals left the camp and left. Not long after, Pang Heihu came out and said to Dakui: "Brother Dakui, the marshal has invited you." Dakui nodded and entered the camp with Pang Heihu again.

"Sit down." Xu Da said.

"The marshal is on top, but I don't dare to sit down because of my humble position." Dakui was very respectful and did not dare to be careless in the slightest.

Xu Da smiled slightly and said: "You are so rigid wherever you stand, and there are some things that I can't even say."

Hearing this, Dakui smiled and said: "In that case, I don't dare to embarrass the marshal because of my humble position." As he said this, he walked to a chair aside and sat down.

Seeing Da Kui like this, Xu Da not only laughed. Then he said: "The commander-in-chief already knows what you are doing, so don't make a wrong step at all." Xu Da said earnestly.

Dakui smiled and said: "Marshal Rongzhen, although Zhang Dakui is a warrior, he has a wife and children besides Ming Dynasty in his heart. The wrong things I did were also for the sake of Ming Dynasty. Not only did some people interfere with it, but Zhang Dakui couldn't defend it."

When Xu Da heard this, he also smiled slightly and said: "Since you know your mistakes, you should correct them." After thinking for a while, Xu Da asked: "Are you willing to give up the merits?"

Dakui couldn't help but sigh: "Your Majesty ordered me to be only a cook and not a general. What can I do?"

Xu Da laughed loudly: "Those who are good at fighting are above the Nine Heavens, and those who are good at defending are hidden under the Nine Earths. Why should you care about your position in order to gain military merit?" In a flash, Xu Da said again: "This time, General Tang sent troops to stop the expansion post.

Mu'er, this is really a difficult situation. If General Tang is in trouble, I need you to take more care of him."

Dakui couldn't help but ask: "What does it mean to be a marshal in such a humble position?"

Xu Da said seriously: "Whether he wins or loses, General Tang must not make any mistakes."

Hearing this, Dakui said: "I also know very well what Brother Tang is like. Once the army is defeated, it will be difficult to do anything. With this order from the marshal, I feel really embarrassed for my humble position."

Xu Da looked at Da Kui for a long time and then said: "If you protect General Tang thoroughly, I can report to the court to commend you. But I will promote you based on military merit. I wonder what Lieutenant Zhang wants?"

This is what Dakui was waiting for. Hearing this, he immediately stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Even if the marshal doesn't tell you, Zhang Dakui still has the responsibility of guarding Brother Tang. He is humble enough to prepare and say goodbye." After saying that, he turned around and left without looking back.

Got the camp tent.
