After the two left, Chang Yu glanced at Ma Ke: "Mr. Ma, don't you say a few words?"
Marco was still eating. Hearing this, he smiled lightly: "He's not a three-year-old kid anymore. What's there to say?"
Chang Yu looked a little embarrassed and laughed: "It seems that this governor is childish."
"If Lord Du Gong is naive, then all the ignorant children in this world are ignorant." Marco laughed and turned to look at Ji Jike: "General Ji, if the Tatars come, we will never be in trouble. How can we prevent the Tatars from coming?"
Ji Jike knew that Ma Ke was testing himself, so he thought for a moment and said, "Shall we go there first?"
Ma Ke looked at Chang Yu with a half-smile.
Chang Yu breathed out: "Mr. Ma felt that we all worked hard yesterday, and General Ji was the only one who was idle."
When Ji Jike heard this, he stood up quickly and said, "The Governor has something to do, and General Mo is willing to go."
Chang Yu looked outside and saw snow foam whizzing by in the cold wind. He didn't want to go out on such a cold day. He glanced at Ma Ke again: "So impatient?"
"The general is not in a hurry, he is just afraid that the governor will be bored in this fort." Marco put down the bowl in his hand and wiped his mouth: "Everything is left to the decision of the governor."
Chang Yu looked outside the room again and sighed: "It's really pleasant to have a fire and drink hot tea here, but it's also really boring. It's just that it's not suitable to do a lot of exercise when you're new here, but it's okay to move your muscles and bones."
While he was talking, a military general hurried to the door to greet him. It was Qianhu Lu Dacheng, who was originally a general under Wu Sangui.
"Yesterday, the governor attacked Xingshan and Songshan and killed dozens of brothers. Do you know?" Chang Yu said blankly. Lu Dacheng was confused. Yesterday's results of the two battalions of the Dongchang Guards had already spread throughout Tashan Fort.
The soldiers were all shocked and admired. It was true that Dongchang Guard was really awesome, but he really didn't know how much Dongchang Guard had been damaged.
"In this humble position, I only know that the Governor killed hundreds of enemies yesterday and captured the dog thief Nomuqi," Lu Dacheng said truthfully.
Chang Yu hummed, "Since the day when Dongchang Wei became an army, my governor has said that no matter whether his brothers are alive or dead, they will never abandon or give up. No matter life or death, I will take them home. Do you know what I mean by this?"
"I know from my humble position that the Governor wants to collect the bodies of those brothers who died in the battle!" Lu Dacheng felt moved and admired in his heart! As a border soldier, he knew that there is no difference between the death of a person and the death of a dog here. There are many
The best outcome for a dead person is to be buried on the spot, or more often, the body is dumped in the wilderness... But the great eunuch is so affectionate and loyal to his subordinates that he will take them back regardless of life or death!
"You led five hundred soldiers with Yingying to collect the corpses at Songshan, Xingshan." Chang Yu said casually. Lu Dacheng's heart tightened. I guess it's okay to collect the corpses. You can also go to Xingshan, but when you go to Songshan, aren't you asking me to die?
, five hundred soldiers, but there are thousands of Tatars over there.
But then he thought about it, he was going with Yingying. He would not let Yingying die, so he quickly agreed, but he was still beating a drum in his heart. Yingying was brave, but after all, there were only three hundred riders. If the opponent
If he uses all his strength, he may not be able to stop him...
"I will go with you," Marco actually said. Seeing Lu Dacheng's surprised look, he let out a laugh: "Master Du Gong's brothers cannot leave their bodies in the wilderness, how can I bear the heart of my own men feeding wild dogs?"
Woolen cloth".
"It seems that it's not the governor who can't sit still, but General Ma who can't sit still." Chang Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Since General Ma wants to go, let's take that guy over by the way. It's an eyesore here."
Pointing to Fanseng Dorje at the door.
Duoji was just stunned, but he was not stupid. Knowing that he was asked to follow the training, he immediately rubbed his hands with great joy: "Mr. Ma, can you give me a knife that I can use? I can give him credit first..."
Ma Ke frowned, wondering what this guy was talking about, and turned to look at Chang Yu. Chang Yu had an expression that said, "I don't know that guy." Ma Ke shook his head lightly and said to Lu Dacheng: "Get him a handy weapon."
After a while, Ma Ke, Ji Jike and Lu Dacheng ordered their troops and horses and left the fort.
Tu Yuan stood at the door and looked up at the sky, spreading his hands: "Are we just here doing nothing?"
"If you feel bored, go to the stable and clean up the manure." Chang Yu said casually, and Tu Yuan said, "I hurt my thigh yesterday..."
Li Muxian came over to Chang Yu and whispered: "It's windy outside and the wind is blowing loudly. I would like to advise you not to wander around."
Chang Yu chuckled and said, "The Taoist priest knows that I am." He took a long breath and said, "After all, a dog can't change its habit of eating shit, so what can we do with this one bite?"
Li Muxian sighed: "This place is no better than other places. Since they know you are coming, they will not let go of any clues, and they would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go. This way the risk will be even greater. The Governor is still
Remember what the emperor told you before you came here? In fact, you should know without the emperor’s explanation that you are not the same person you were before, and you can no longer take such risks."
Indeed, Chang Yu was just a young boy at that time, doing things without regard for the consequences, but now that he has a family and a career, his own safety is the safety of Ming Dynasty.
But……
"Daozhang Li, do you think that these words can change our minds?" Chang Yu smiled faintly: "It's still the same sentence that dogs can't change. They eat shit!" Li Muchian was speechless. He could even say that for himself.
If a dog can't change his mind about eating shit, then obviously he can't be persuaded. He said helplessly: "The poor man will follow me to the death."
Chang Yu waved his hand: "It's windy and cold outside, so the Taoist priest should stay in the fort. Besides, your outfit is really not suitable for hanging out with our family."
Li Muxian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Hey, it would be best not to let me go. I have a narrow escape in the ice and snow. I am not a good person and I don't want to suffer that kind of fate. I don't want to be frightened.
But he was still doing his last duty: "Commander Ma is gone. If you go out for a walk again, Lu Qianhu will not be there either. There is no leader in this fort. If there is an enemy attack at this time..."
"Aren't there those ancestral brothers? Although they have no military positions at this time, they are all veterans on the battlefield. Whether it is offensive or defensive, their experience is rarely matched by others. With the two of them sitting in charge, there is no need to worry."
Chang Yu casually said goodbye and Li Muchian jumped up in surprise: "Duke, you... they are..."
"Actually, it's not just Li Muxian." Even Wang Zhengnan and Tu Yuan's expressions changed.
After all, the reason for the discoloration is due to the professional resumes of the two Zukfa brothers. They have been in the Qing camp for ten years. How could they not take precautions, and Tashan Fort is the bridgehead. It would be too heart-warming to just leave it to the two of them.
If Zu Dashou were here, they would naturally not have any other thoughts, but if it was just the two of them... it would be fine if nothing happened. If there was a war, do you think they would just open the city and surrender?
"Does the Governor want to test this? It may not be too risky. If it is true... the price will be too high." Wang Zhengnan was worried. After all, it took more than half a year to rebuild the Tashan Fort and how much energy, military and material resources were spent.
Ah, it took a lot of effort to gain a foothold.
Chang Yu shook his head lightly: "It's not intentional, but the tests that should be done must be done anyway, not to mention that with Tu Yuan here to control and Daochang Li here, they can't find any tricks, and if they don't
It is said that these two men only have a few men in their hands, and the officers and soldiers in the fort are already alienated from them. If there is a war and they rise up to resist, they will obey the soldiers' morale, but if they raise the white flag, they will not respond and there will be very few followers."
It seems that Chang Yu is very confident in the loyalty of Ning Yuan's army, and in fact it is indeed the case. The foundation of Ning Yuan's army is the Guan Ning cavalry. They have been stationed at the border and worked for the Tatars for many years, and they have long been nothing more than fire and water.
They are absolutely not afraid of death and will never surrender, but whenever there is another way to go, they will rather die than surrender.
Let’s not talk about anything else, how many Ming troops refused to surrender after the disastrous defeat of the Songjin Battle and Pidao, and either ran away or threw themselves into the sea to commit suicide!
Even those who surrendered did so because they were loyal to their generals. When the generals surrendered, they followed suit.
