Chang Yu was true to his word and once said to boost morale during a fierce battle: Kill the Tatars and share the money!
During the ambush in Xishan, those who survived were rewarded with nearly one hundred thousand taels of silver in addition to the head reward. The army camp was immediately filled with envy, with everyone envious of the men and horses of the fourth battalion under the young eunuch and Li Yan's tribe.
Especially Li Yan's subordinates, they feel that their backs have never been so straight. From the rebel army that everyone shouted to fight, they have transformed into national heroes who defend their country and resist foreign humiliation. What's even more gratifying is that they killed the enemy when they first arrived outside the customs.
With meritorious service, he ambushed Duduo's cavalry, picked up leaks outside Ningyuan City, defended Xishan, and attacked the Qing army camp.
Almost all of them were assists, but they were all critical hits. The main general Li Yan was promoted to the third rank of officer and subordinate based on his merit, and was awarded the title of General Anyuan and the title of Lieutenant of Light Vehicles.
When the joy was getting worse, Tu Yuan, the commander of the Black Tiger Battalion, a direct descendant of the governor, recruited troops from Li Yan's tribe. Unsurprisingly, the applicants were enthusiastic, but Tu Yuan had high requirements. Those with strong bodies were given priority, and those with good cavalry and archery were given priority. Only two
Hundreds of people.
Seeing Tu Yuan recruiting troops, Jia Waixiong and Wuzhong couldn't sit still. They had lost a lot of men in the previous battle, and they needed to replenish their troops, so they joined the poaching array one after another.
Maybe they felt a little embarrassed, so the three of them even held a special banquet for Li Yan. The relationship between the generals heated up during the banquet, just as Li Yan expected.
The military camp is already packed, and the most crowded place is that specific area, the field hospital.
After the war, there were countless wounded soldiers, and the soldiers watching the excitement made the area really crowded, making it difficult to stand. Chang Yu and his party came to comfort the wounded soldiers, but it was difficult to move. Li Tiezhu led his soldiers in front and had to use a riding whip.
Got someone.
The power of women! Chang Yu sighed, Wu Sangui and others looked at each other and smiled, and everything was understood.
More than ten people came riding fast horses, but it was the Red Lady who heard that the Governor had come to the camp to comfort the wounded soldiers, and came in a hurry. Seeing her red clothes like fire and her vigorous figure, everyone couldn't help but cheer in a low voice.
"These girls have been fighting all year round. They are wild and very energetic!" Tu Yuan looked at the female soldiers accompanying the red lady and couldn't help but lick his tongue!
"Xiao Yuan, you have a strong taste. These girls ride horses all year round, and their butts are very rough. If you use an old man to push a cart, the calluses on your butt will look too disappointing, or those delicate girls in the ** will squeeze out the water to suit my taste." Jia
Wai Xiong had a lewd smile on his face. He hadn't eaten meat for a long time. These guys were already itchy and unbearable. However, Chang Yu's army was strictly disciplined and they didn't dare to mess around. Ningyuan City was small and had no sex, so they had to endure the pleasure of oral pleasure.
"You two are so shameless." Wu Zhong listened to the two of them with a look of disdain on his face, and said seriously: "It's good to play with some, but you are also picky. When the light blows, it doesn't matter whether the old man is pushing a cart or a ****."
difference".
Tu Yuan and Jia Waixiong were stunned: "Bah! Obscene!"
The warm sun has been shining for several days, and the snow outside Ningyuan City has melted away. After the battle, the outside of the city was muddy, and it was still devastated even after several days.
Chang Yu carried his bow across his sword and put on his soft armor, and together with Wu Sangui and Tang Tong, he sent his horse out of the city, accompanied by more than 300 generals and soldiers. He first went to the entrance of the Zhengbei Valley and met the Ming army scouts. He said that the Qing army had fled straight into Jinzhou City and was unable to escape.
, in the past few days, the nearby stragglers were either captured and chased deep into the mountains by the Ming army, or they fled north to find their roots.
There was no trace of the enemy within a radius of thirty miles.
Chang Yu was determined to hunt at Mohu Mountain due west. When the group arrived at the mountain pass, they saw that the snow had melted and the mountain was slippery and unsuitable for walking. So they turned southwest to the foot of Heifeng Mountain. They saw scars from the battle and there were corpses of Qing soldiers buried in the grass at the foot of the mountain.
In the middle, the bloodstains all over the place are shocking. Recalling the fierce battle a few days ago, it suddenly seems like the world.
Everyone stopped briefly at the foot of the mountain, and Chang Yu suggested that when Wu Sangui manages Ningyuan in the future, he should make full use of Xishan, especially the cave in Shuangshan, which is the best place to store grain and station troops.
After a while, everyone went around Shandong and went east along the Ningyuan River. They hunted on horseback, but the harvest was very little and they were not very happy. When they arrived at the southeast hot spring, everyone dismounted and took off their clothes to take a bath. There were soldiers barbecuing and preparing wine.
"The governor once said that he would come here to take a dip after the war. I heard that this hot spring has miraculous effects on healing wounds. Otherwise, we will take a dip for three days and three nights."
All the generals agreed one after another, pointing out the wine and meat, and they were very high-spirited.
"After this battle, the Tatars' vitality has been severely damaged. I am afraid that they will not be able to wage war against our country in a few years. The imperial court can also calmly suppress the thieves. It will not be too late to regain the lost territory in three to five years when our country's vitality is slightly restored."
Wu Sangui was full of ambition, and everyone agreed.
"The Tatars have ravaged our Ming Dynasty for more than ten years. Just regaining the lost territory is not an advantage for them. We have to attack their lair and drive them back to the barren land where they came from." Tang Tong was indignant.
Chang Yu smiled bitterly and poured cold water: "It's not easy. Let's not talk about regaining the lost territory, let alone destroying the Tatars. Now the intruders are showing their sharpness and arrogance. How to destroy them is the top priority. Wu Shaobao said that for three to five years, it is known that the court has used
Over the past three to five years, more and more people have been suppressed."
When Wu Shaobao heard this sentence, Wu Sangui was elated: "At this moment, the governor appeared out of nowhere, and he was obsessed with military use. When the intruder first encountered you, he hit his head and broke his blood, and he was defeated in Taiyuan. At this time, the governor opened up his posture to fight with you, then
Wouldn't it be even more difficult to defeat a thief?"
"Wu Shaobao, please don't put a high hat on this governor. More than ten years ago, although our dynasty was tired, our national strength was not what it is now. There was a severe drought and no harvest, locust plagues and plagues, and capable ministers and generals died.
Who can turn things around with his own efforts? If I can’t do it, you can’t do it.”
Everyone is silent!
"Only when we unite as one," Chang Yu raised his arms and shouted, and the crowd became excited, and they all commented that he was the only one who followed suit and served the imperial court.
What Wu Sangui was most concerned about was the affairs of the Zhuguo established by the imperial court and whether he could be awarded the title. After the war, he had asked someone to send a message to his father to go to the imperial court to take care of it, but he also knew that the little eunuch in front of him had the biggest leg.
"With this great victory in Ningyuan, we can ensure the stability of our Ming Dynasty border for several years. Wu Shaobao's contribution should be the most important. There should be no suspense," Chang Yu reassured.
Wu Sangui looked slightly embarrassed: "Thank you very much, Lord Governor, for your support. I know that I am suspected of robbing beauty. This is your kindness. I am grateful from the bottom of my heart. From now on, I will only follow Lord Governor's lead."
Chang Yu chuckled: "My kindness is not a clique. I just hope that Wu Shaobao can work side by side with me in the future to kill the enemy and bandits and serve the country." He sighed slightly: "After all, the Ming Dynasty can use useful people now."
Too few, and even fewer are willing to be loyal.”
Three days later, Chang Yu led his troops to recuperate in Ningyuan City. In addition to insisting on daily morning exercises, all other trainings of the four battalions under his command were cancelled.
As for him, he also acted as the boss, going to bed early and getting up early to do morning exercises, and then wandered around the city, paying no attention to post-war city construction, aftermath, city defense, military affairs, and civil affairs. He seemed to be doing nothing, but in fact everyone knew that he was doing it to lure the killer.
When he came out and entered the city, he learned that Xiao Ran was dead and swore that he would peel off the killer's skin and cramps.
However, the killer seemed to sense the danger and never showed up again. This made Chang Yu very angry, so he temporarily focused on traveling in the mountains and rivers. He traveled more than fifty miles around Ning, trekking through mountains and rivers, hunting, and painting terrain.
picture……
During this period, Jin Yiwei sent military information from the south. Chang Yu stood at the top of the city and looked south for nearly half an hour without saying a word. No one dared to disturb him. When Wu Sangui came to hear the news and saw his brows furrowed, he asked, "Master Shi, are you in trouble?"
"
"It's not the war that's disadvantageous, it's the disaster of man." Chang Yu didn't want to say more and went down to the city.
Although he was concerned about the war situation in the south and wished he could come there in person, he could not stay away from Ning without the emperor's will.
By the Ningyuan River, the Black Tiger Battalion was arrayed for drills. Tu Yuan invited Li Tiezhu, Hu Ling and Fan Jiaqian to coach with three jars of fine wine as a promise of food and drinks.
In terms of martial arts, Chang Yu's subordinates are headed by Wu Zhong and Chen Wangting, but in terms of military training, no one can surpass the three of Fan Jiaqian. In particular, the basic formation of soldiers, basic boxing skills, military boxing, and enemy catching boxing are all common.
Yu Dang trained it personally.
If you don't believe it, ask Chen Wangting and General Fa. Take a moment, stand at attention, and look to the right to see what it is. You will definitely not understand.
The army emphasizes team combat, and training in formations and commands is the basic foundation. Of the four battalions under Chang Yu, the Gongzi battalion is the most standardized and proficient in this aspect. This is why the three members of the Fan family are now like Wuzhong and Jiawai Xiong.
, Tu Yuan, and even Li Yan’s guests.
Tu Yuan was training the new army of Black Tiger Camp, and Chen Wangting's uncle and nephew were teaching boxing skills to more than ten eunuchs on duty by the river. As for Jiang Fa, he had been hanging out with his new love Wuzhong recently and was not on duty with Chang Yu.
On the ice in the river, one person, one pole, and one horse sat quietly, undisturbed by the hustle and bustle on the shore.
At dusk on the west mountain, a few horses came south. The little eunuch looked up, closed his pole and shouted towards the shore: "Let's go" (To be continued)
