Chapter 698: Return to Nu'er Gandusi
This battle made the name of the god of war resound in the Mongolian steppe. It has made many people want to get to know this person well. And now, this man has appeared on the grassland, has come to them. The so-called name of the person and the shadow of the tree, just after signing up for the word, I don't know how many Mongolian soldiers were scared in their hearts, and the evil claws that they wanted to stretch out had to be retracted first, and they wanted to see it.
Shicheng is still in full swing of construction, when Yang Chendong intended to let the reconnaissance battalion release the news, saying that the timber and a large number of stone mercenaries needed to build the city will be purchased in large quantities, as long as they are sent to Shicheng and the materials are suitable, they will be purchased at a price one percent higher than the market price, and more and more nearby businessmen have come here to do business.
More and more materials were sent from all over the city, and the pace of construction of the city began to accelerate. More and more people came to work here, which freed up a large number of mercenary cavalry, but the pace of city construction has not slowed down.
Twenty days have passed, and the outer city wall has begun to take shape, and from a distance, it has a majestic momentum. And what is even more surprising is that such a big move, this kind of action that is tantamount to snatching meat from other people's mouths, has never been attacked by any army until now.
This has to be said to be a miracle. But only Yang Chendong knew that this was just his name as a god of war plus the strong strength of the mercenaries that made the opponent afraid. And this fear is only short-lived, once the third division of Leng Feng transports a large number of supplies into the city, once he has a logistics supply line and trade route from Shicheng to Haizhen, under the lure of powerful interests, some people will not be tempted to make a move.
As for when that day will come, it all depends on when the third division of Leng Feng returns. At this time, the Leng Feng Third Division had already walked through the Great Xing'an Mountains, came to the side of the Liao River, and was diagonally inserting into the Jianzhou Left Guard next to the Songhua River.
At this time, the Jianzhou Left Guard, long since the past, first commanded the two thousand cavalry led by Liang Xuan and Wei Zhen Fu Hu Zhi were destroyed, and then commanded the servant Tang Longtian to lead two thousand infantry to disappear beside the Liao River, and the strength has already been greatly reduced.
For this matter, the Wei commander Abdullah sent someone to ask for help from the general of the Nuer Gandu Sizhi Office, that is, the commander of the capital, Song Quan. People are sent out, but it will take some time to get a result. And it was at this time that Leng Feng's Third Division suddenly appeared near Jianzhou Zuowei, listening to the news from the scouts below, saying that there was an unknown army, but a huge army was passing through his jurisdiction, how could this not make him frightened.
Since the incident with Liang Xuan, the commander of Tongzhi, Abdullah has sent many people to investigate the situation, and even once this incident alarmed the Jinyi Guard stationed in the Nuer Gandusi area. I have to say that the ability of this institution is still very large, and after they began to pay attention to it and sent people, the news soon came out, saying that the incident was likely to be done by the Five-Star Army.
The Five-Star Army was indeed very low-key in doing things in the Nuer Gandusi area before, and it may not be taken seriously by many people. But what do Jin Yiwei do to eat, what they are good at is to grasp the details, and even when they determine a thing, he can fake the details if you don't have the details. Not to mention that there are thousands of brothers in the Five-Star Army, they have already paid attention to such forces, but the level of attention is not high.
After visiting, Jin Yiwei first locked Ding Shan, who traded with Zhang Zhizhi, the deputy of Shuangchengwei, and when the sketch of this person was drawn, as soon as the name of the commander of the reconnaissance company of the five-star army came out, everything was settled. After the matter was reported, the Five-Star Army also became the main opponent of the army of the Northern Ming Guard, and it belonged to the existence of everyone shouting to kill. But I don't know why, all of a sudden, the target is gone, as if the world has evaporated, and people can't feel the location.
Then again, I can't find the five-star army, so I can only continue to investigate. And at this time, the third division of Leng Feng appeared, and it was still the kind that did not do the slightest sense of concealment, so it walked out openly. Not only that, but they even came straight to the guard of the Jianzhou Left Guard, and the goal was so clear that it really scared Abdullah, the commander of the guard.
While ordering people to close the city gate, which was not too high and too big, while gathering more than 1,600 infantry under his command, Abdullah personally went up to the city tower, and looked at the slowly approaching distant army, cold sweat flowed from his head.
As I said before, Abdullah is a good fighter, and he also relied on his own ability to get to this position. Because of this, unlike those who have been hereditarily held in office, he has a more accurate judgment and analytical power on the battlefield.
When he waited to see the Leng Feng Third Division coming from afar on the city tower, his intuition immediately told him that if the two sides fought, he could not be an opponent. As soon as he thought of this, his cold sweat flowed even more, and he thought to himself, what is the matter? How could such a force that did not belong to him suddenly appear, and he was completely unaware of it?
The advance speed of the Leng Feng Third Division is actually not slow, it is all cavalry, and it can maintain the speed of advance to the greatest extent. In addition, the order given to them by Yang Chendong is a big fanfare, and there is no need to hide anything along the way, and the speed is getting faster and faster.
Looking at the army that was still far away just now, it soon approached the left acropolis of Jianzhou, and the second regiment in charge of the vanguard work also came to the city and began to line up. Chen Bo, who was the regiment commander and the political commissar of the Third Division, was the first to leap out, and when he looked up, he saw Abdullah's gaze from top to bottom.
The eyes of the two looked at each other at this moment, and after about a breath of time, Chen Bo took a loudspeaker that could play a role in amplification from the hands of his own soldiers, and began to shout loudly, "The generals in the city and the soldiers of the Northern Ming Dynasty listen, I am an officer of the mercenary army under the seat of the Daming Loyal and Courageous Prince, this time there is no malice in the distance, just to use your way." As long as you don't act in vain, you can be guaranteed personal safety. ”
Chen Bo stopped after shouting this sentence twice in a row, and at his signal, a bow and arrow with a letter was fired at the tower, and it landed at Abdullah's feet.
"Da Ming is loyal and courageous?" Abdullah picked up the fallen bow and arrow, took the letter in his hand and spread it out, the content was more detailed, supporting Chen Bo's remarks just now.
When the Ming Dynasty heard that the Northern Warat intended to invade the border, in line with the idea that it was indispensable to defend against people, the Loyal and Courageous Duke had arrived at the northern grassland and wanted to build a rear base called Shicheng there. However, considering the shortage of materials, a sufficiently safe logistics channel was needed, that is, the Nuer Gandusi area was chosen, and the location of the Jianzhou Left Guard was located on the selected supply route, etc.
The letter is detailed, the cause and effect of the matter is very clear, and it also expresses a certain amount of goodwill. That is, they are just borrowing the road, and they do not have the slightest intention of staying or occupying territory in the Nuer Gandusi area, and they also ask the other party to cooperate. Of course, if the other party wants to have some ideas, then I'm sorry, it's not impossible for the sword to meet.
At the end of the letter, there was a bold statement by Yang Chendong, that is, the Han people in the world were originally a family, and this time he was helping the Han people to deal with the northern aliens. But if someone dares to use any small tricks behind his back, he doesn't mind making a move to make a move outside and inside first. At that time, whoever fights the idea of a mercenary will have to pay back ten, hundred, or even a thousand times the price.
Da Ming is loyal and courageous, that has the nickname of the god of war. Not to mention, in the year that this person went to the south, he defeated the troublesome Yellow Bandit Army one after another, and wiped out Jiaozhi and Canglan in a row. This is something that even Daming can't do, and now that Yang Chendong has done it, how can such a person be easy to get along with?
Now that this man was in his sight, Abdullah had already had the idea that he could not be an enemy before he could fight. It's just that then again, he's just a guard commander, and his power is limited, and it's not like he can do it for a big thing like this, he still needs to ask for instructions from above, and obey the arrangements from above.
In the spirit of not offending, Abdullah stood under the tower and quickly replied: "The general below, this matter is very important, please allow me to ask the above for some instructions, how is the decision made?" Of course, as a sign of our kindness, we'll try to provide you with as much food as we can while we wait, okay? ”
The supplies need to be prepared, they need to be loaded from the Red Embedded City, and they all need time to be shipped to Haizhen by sea. The most important thing for the current Leng Feng Third Division is time, and what they have to do is to use this blank time to create their invincible influence, so it doesn't matter where they stop, as long as they can play a role in deterring the enemy.
"Okay, we agreed. Please ask the general to hurry up and apply to the above. Chen Bo agreed instead of the third division. Then with a wave of his hand, the cavalry dismounted, began to set up camp, and stationed five miles in front of the left guard of Jianzhou.
Abdul pulled down the tower and returned to the barracks, and immediately wrote an urgent letter, and sent it to the city where the commander of the capital was located with his cronies. After doing this, he arranged for the soldiers of the barracks to bring some surplus food to the city in baskets. It is said that after the company lost 2,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry in battle, they still had a lot of food.
The third division of Leng Feng was also unceremonious, arranging for soldiers to go to the city to receive food, and without the slightest precaution, they showed that they had no ghosts in their hearts, which made Abdullah feel a lot more relieved. The other party's willingness to accept the food he sent is a sign of goodwill, so that the other party should not attack again, otherwise why bother?
