There is a spring in the cave, which is clear and sweet. When a few people were drinking from the cattle, they heard someone calling. However, the Fan family could not wait for a long time and worried about an accident. They led everyone to look for it. They were very happy to see the size of the cave.
Wu Zhong grinned from ear to ear and found some hay to make a nest in the cave. Finally, he no longer had to sleep in the forest at night and suffer from the cold wind.
On the barbecue grill at the entrance of the cave, the aroma of game meat made people salivate and couldn't help but swallow. Chang Yu stood at the entrance of the cave and looked at Ningyuan City in the distance. The wind and snow were too thick, and a bright spot was vaguely visible.
"You are talking about whether there are wolves in the mountains?"
"There are beasts in the mountains, and it is common for tigers and wolves to appear. It was not uncommon for me to eat the meat of tigers and wolves when I was young." Wuzhong leaned against the mountain wall, the firelight reflected on his face, and his eyes looked at the green game on the grill.
The light and the words are another kind of heroic.
"Where did you drop the grass?" Chang Yu turned his head and asked curiously.
Wuzhong licked his lips: "Why did the governor suddenly mention the matter of tigers and wolves?"
Obviously he didn't want to talk about that experience and deliberately changed the topic.
Oh, Chang Yu shrugged and pointed to the valley outside the cave: "There are many fireflies."
Four or five wild wolves in the Moshi Valley were licking the offal of the game that the attendants had just cleaned. The green light was exactly the same color as the grill in Wuzhong.
"This is a pack of wolves" Fan Jiaqian muttered, everyone was shocked.
"Hold the grass, the wolf meat is getting delicious!" Wuzhong cheered and jumped out of the cave with his knife, but Chang Yu couldn't catch him in time.
This..., this guy actually wants to slaughter wolves and barbecue?
Soon wolves howled and ghosts cried in the valley, mixed with Wuzhong's roars. I don't know whether it was excitement, excitement, or excitement.
Chang Yu was worried that he had made a mistake, so he ordered the two of them to go down to help with torches at any time.
After a while, the three of them came up panting with a huge wild wolf on their shoulders. Seeing Chang Yu's angry eyes, Wu Zhong grinned stupidly: "The wolf meat is very fragrant, and the wolf skin makes a big coat so warm!"
"You've only been out of detention for a few days, but you already smell like a scumbag. You have a bit of southern dignity that's easy to attack!" Chang Yu pretended to be angry. When he saw Wu Zhongzhong, he thought of another person, but he didn't know these two.
Who is more fierce?
Wuzhong giggled: "I'm originally from the north." He went to peel the skin and get the meat.
The cave was sealed with a bonfire, the warmth was warm, and the hay was spread like brocade fur. Everyone was full of water and meat, took hay and fed the horses, and then lay down or lay down to listen to the howling wind outside and the crackling of the bonfire.
Chang Yu leaned against the cave wall, staring at the bonfire in a daze. Wuzhong held the wine bottle and stuck out his tongue to lick it non-stop. For a long time, not a drop came out. Fan Jiaqian glanced around and finally couldn't help it.
"Lord Governor, are you sure of this battle?"
Chang Yu smiled slightly and turned to look at him: "Daqian, before we went to Taiyuan, we were just escorting the payers. You had never even seen blood at that time. But after arriving in Taiyuan, we faced hundreds of thousands of bandit troops. We brothers would have killed them all the same."
The intruder fled in panic!"
Fan Jiaqian looked puzzled: "So... we can also win this time?"
"What the governor means is that he doesn't know either. Just take one step at a time, right?" Wuzhong finally threw the wine bottle aside helplessly.
"You know what a p!" Fan Jiaqian scolded him angrily!
Chang Yu chuckled and shook his head: "It's not about taking one step at a time and having a plan in advance so that you won't be in a hurry when things happen. What I want to say is that when we went to Taiyuan, we were unprepared but we were able to fight against the intruders when we worked together.
Although the Qing army is fierce and brave when fleeing, if we are fully prepared, even if we cannot attack him head-on, we can still cope with it, right?"
"But General Zhou in Taiyuan is extremely loyal and courageous, and he dares to fight hard. Governor Cai is also a very loyal minister who puts the people first. They can sincerely join forces with adults to suppress bandits, but Wu Sangui seems... not a good person."
Fan Jiaqian frowned.
"More than just being a good person, look at his subordinates who are all vicious and full of scorn. They typically bully the weak and fear the strong. How are these soldiers different from thieves? There is no distinction between soldiers and thieves. No wonder they always suffer defeat."
"You know what a p!" This time it was Chang Yu who yelled. Although what Wuzhong said was true, the reason for the defeat of the frontier army was not this. However, as he said, the frontier army now does not matter whether it is military discipline or military discipline.
The military morale or combat power has long lost the glory of the Ningyuan Cavalry, and now only a name is left.
A name that exists in name only.
"Wu Sangui is a character. His bravery and strategy are unmatched by ordinary generals. He seems to be irritable and irritable, but in fact it is just a deception. His deep scheming is something that few can compare to."
The little eunuch held a piece of hay in his mouth and said with a half-smile.
"Let's just say he's not a good person," Fan Jiaqian muttered. He didn't like Wu Sangui from the first moment he saw him.
If he wins this battle, it will be fine. If he loses and loses Ningyuan, Wu Sangui may really surrender to the Qing Dynasty. At that time, Dorgon asked Zu Dashou to recruit him but was rejected. It was not because Wu Sangui was very loyal to the Ming court.
In fact, it is because surrendered generals are usually ignored and it is difficult to hold military power. He can't let go of the high-ranking officials, wealth, wealth and military power of commanding tens of thousands of soldiers. Secondly, the Ming Dynasty is in turmoil. At this time, he holds the military power and is the favorite of all forces.
, he is naturally trying to get both sides, to see who has the higher bid and who has the greater chance of winning, he is waiting for the price to sell!
Furthermore, he was a filial son and could not abandon his family and the beautiful Chen Yuanyuan. History books say that he fell in love with the beauty in a rage. Although this was the reason, he did not know that he heard that his family, including his father Wu Xiang, was more than thirty years old.
After his mouth was chopped off by Li Zicheng, he decided to surrender to the Qing Dynasty for revenge.
It can be said that Wu Sangui's state of mind at this time was very complicated and cannot be generalized. However, Chang Yu had made preparations based on his calculations. For example, before leaving the capital, he had secretly ordered Chunxiang to send people to keep an eye on the Wu Mansion and never allow his family to leave the capital.
It seems a bit clumsy, but it is also the only way for emperors in ancient times to contain the generals who are leading the army!
Being in the deep mountains and unaware of the outside world, Chang Yu rarely slept so deeply. When he got up so late, he was woken up by the neighing of horses in the cave. He turned over and sat up, rubbing his eyes. He saw that his attendants had gotten up early, had washed up, and were adding firewood for cooking.
Feeding the horses, Wuzhong and Fan Jiaqian disappeared.
I went to the spring in the cave to wash my face, and my tiredness was gone. Seeing that the wind and snow outside had not stopped, I played a few sets of punches in the cave, and then I saw Wu Zhong and Fan Jiaqian coming back together, carrying some game in their hands.
Wuzhong was a little dejected, because none of his arrows hit the target, and all the game was hunted by the Fan family.
"A thousand arrows a day can achieve a small success in ten days. You have been practicing martial arts since you were a child and you should know the success of hard work." Chang Yu encouraged.
The wind and snow continued, the sky and the earth turned white overnight, and it was even more difficult to travel in the mountains. Fortunately, we found this cave by accident. It was a blessing from God. With enough water and meat, everyone left the cave and went down to the bottom of the valley to hunt in the snow.
After harvesting, they lead the horses out of the mountains.
The snow was knee-deep and the mountain road was difficult to walk. It took more than an hour to get out of the mountain after walking straight and out of breath. At this time, there were several people planning to enter the mountain in front of the ruined temple at the mountain pass.
Dongchang's fanzi.
"Reporting to the governor, Ningyuan's army provoked Gongziying, and the two sides fought fiercely and caused chaos in the military camp."
The little eunuch got on his horse, patted the snow on his shoulders, put on his hat and looked in the direction of Ning Yuancheng: "Who is Gong Ziying afraid of in a fight? Did he lose or did he use a knife?".
"Wu Sangui held the battle, but no one dared to use swords or guns. He set up an arena and fought with fists and feet to determine the winner and loser. Yesterday, the Gongzi camp won three and lost two. Ning Yuan's army was not convinced. Today they called for battle again and the fight will begin in the afternoon!"
"This useless thing can actually lose two battles!" Chang Yu snorted coldly and galloped back to Ningyuan City.
