Today is the third day of October in the fourth year of Jiajing, and on the 14th day of September, Xu Jin, the governor of Zhili and the general of Pingyu, issued an assembly order to various places, and within 10 days, the Hejian Mansion, Zhending Mansion, Shunde Mansion, Guangping Mansion, and Daimyo Mansion under the jurisdiction of Beizhili, and the soldiers and horses of the five prefectures arrived in Tianjin one after another, all under the command of the prefects of each prefecture, with a total strength of 50,000 troops.

Immediately after that, the soldiers and horses of Shandong and Henan also arrived one after another, with a total strength of 80,000 troops, all of which were commanded by the governor of the province's highest commander, and the specific operations were commanded by the province's highest military attache.

As of the first day of October, the total number of troops under Xu Jin's command has exceeded 150,000, and the momentum has been greatly boosted. As the so-called people are bold, soldiers and horses from all walks of life are ready to move, and they have asked Xu Jin to give an order to immediately wave their troops to the north, drive out the Tartars, relieve the siege of the capital, and save the Son of Heaven!

However, Xu Jin knew that the so-called 150,000 army was too much, because a considerable part of it was temporarily organized government servants and militia, and the upright professional guard army was less than 90,000. Even the local guard army, the combat power is also quite worrisome, only the Shandong army has really been on the battlefield, and the Henan army is only Gui Dewei who has followed himself to suppress the Shandong mining thieves.

The gap between the army that has been on the battlefield and the army that has not been on the battlefield is quite obvious, regardless of the combat strength, there is a world of difference in courage alone, an army without courage is on the battlefield, the possibility of collapse at the touch of a touch is very great, no matter how many people there are, it is in vain, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers chased and killed hundreds of guards Xu Jin has not seen the scene.

The local guard army is still so vulnerable to the Japanese Kou, if it is faced with a more powerful and fierce Tatar cavalry, the result can be imagined, it is estimated that a meeting will be defeated or not an army, so for the sake of safety, Xu Jin chose to continue to stand still, he has to wait for the arrival of the 100,000 southern army led by Wang Shouren.

The 100,000 southern army led by Wang Shouren was mainly composed of the troops of Jiangxi, Zhejiang, and Nanzhili, and these local guards had only recently participated in the battle along the coast of the Ming Dynasty.

Xu Jin's plan was to integrate all the teams that had been on the battlefield as the backbone of the battle, and the other guards who had not been on the battlefield as auxiliaries, and the militia and government servants would serve as reserves to fight the battle. In this way, veterans lead new recruits, and after a few tough battles, the overall courage will come up.

On the third day of October in the fourth year of Jiajing, Wang Shouren, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, finally led 100,000 southern troops to Tianjin, and Xu Jin personally welcomed him out of the city.

Although in terms of status, Xu Jin is currently above Wang Shouren, but in front of Lao Wang, how dare Xu Jin stand up, this is the only one in history who combines meritorious service, morality, and speech, and is also a god-like existence in terms of military use. For example, the thieves who have been entrenched in the dense forests of the mountainous areas of southern Gan for decades will not accept them regardless of the heavens and the earth, but as soon as Lao Wang arrives, they will all be wiped out in a snap of his fingers.

Xu Jin had a heartfelt respect for Lao Wang, and he clasped his fists and saluted: "Xu Jin has seen the prince!" ”

Wang Shouren was in good spirits, but his lips were a little bloody, he coughed occasionally, stroked his beard and smiled: "Governor Xu is polite, those who increase their rank as civil officials, throughout our dynasty, only Xu Ziqian is alone." ”

Xu Jin couldn't help but sweat secretly, indeed, not to mention the Ming Dynasty, throughout the dynasties, the emperor generally only worshiped the military general, and the literati were worshiped by the emperor as a general, Xu Jin is probably the only one.

After Xu Jin and Wang Shouren saw each other, it was their turn to bow to Xu Jin, Yu Linsheng, Xiong Bai, Wang Duo, and Feng Guoqing...... Familiar faces, eager and excited eyes, revealing admiration and surprise, they brushed down on one knee and said loudly: "The last general will see the handsome!" ”

It's only been a year, and you can follow the commander to fight on the battlefield again, and all the generals are enthusiastic, and everyone is gearing up and ready to do a big job. For example, Yu Linsheng, Feng Guoqing and others, last time they participated in the battle of exterminating the Japanese along the coast of the Ming Dynasty, and later they all fished an earl, if they can drive out the Tartars to save the capital this time, maybe a marquis will be crowned, after all, this is a great contribution to saving the Son of Heaven and Kuang Fu Sheji.

Xu Jin looked at the group of arrogant soldiers in front of him, and for a while he was also full of pride, and waved his hand vigorously and chanted loudly: "The green mountains stand tall, and they will not fall into the ambition of Lingyun." The vicissitudes of the sea show the true character of the hero. This commander is willing to work with you to drive out the Tartars, Kuang Fu Sheji, Wansheng! ”

"Drive out the Tartars, Kuang Fu Sheji, Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Wansheng! ”

A group of soldiers shouted in unison, the sound entered the sky, and the fighting spirit was high!

Wang Shouren's eyes lit up, and he blurted out: "What a sea crossing, Fang shows the true character of a hero, Wansheng...... Ahem, ahem! ”

Wang Shouren was stimulated by Xu Jin's two poems, and he coughed violently, Xie Sangun hurriedly stepped forward to support the former, and gently stroked his back.

After a while, Lao Wang stopped coughing, and the handkerchief used to cover his mouth suddenly had a bunch of bloodstains, and Xu Jin and Xie Sangun both changed their faces and hurriedly asked for the military doctor.

Wang Shouren waved his hand to stop it, and said with a relaxed expression: "This is an old problem, it is not in the way, according to numerology, the old man has at least two years to live." ”

Xu Jin frowned secretly, he had long heard that Wang Shouren had lung disease, and he had been suppressing it by taking arsenic, and Wang Shouren on the calendar did not live long, and it is estimated that he would live for a few years.

"Master, don't talk nonsense, your old man will live a hundred years!" Xie Sangun said with red eyes.

Wang Shouren patted Xie Sangun's broad shoulder and smiled: "Life and death are fateful, and the teacher has already seen it through." Three guns, you are gifted and intelligent, what you have learned all your life has been taught to you, and if you sharpen it for a few more years, you will definitely make a great achievement, okay, don't be a seven-foot man in this form of a child. ”

Xu Jin couldn't help but move in his heart, it seems that Lao Wang is very optimistic about the three shots.

Wang Shouren put the handkerchief in his arms, his eyes fell to Xu Jin again, and said with a smile: "How to wave the master and save the king, presumably Ziqian has already made a plan, right?" ”

Xu Jin was not modest, nodded and said, "Prince, please follow me into the city, and then think about it in the long run." ”

"Good!" Wang Shouren and Xu Jin went to Tianjin together.

Naturally, the city could not accommodate such a large army, so the soldiers and horses of all Qinwang were stationed outside the city.

"Report, 100,000 urgent!"

Xu Jin and Wang Shouren had just sat down in the hall of the Governor's Yamen when a messenger flew in: "Report to the Governor, the Tartars attacked the Guangning Gate in the early hours of yesterday morning, the outer city has been broken, and now the Tartars are storming the inner city, and 100,000 are in a hurry." ”

Xu Jin and Wang Shouren suddenly changed color and stood up almost at the same time!!
