Chapter 897: The country is in danger
Guo Xun is the governor of the five armies, in charge of the Shenji Battalion and the Yaowu Battalion, and now the emperor ordered the Shenji Battalion to rush to the aid of the Bauhinia Pass, Guo Xun as the governor of the camp, should have personally led the Shenji Battalion to go, but this thing was very afraid of death, and learned that I had personally led 100,000 iron cavalry to storm the Bauhinia Pass, how could he dare to go to the front line to take risks, so he prevaricated on the grounds of staying in the capital to guard the capital, and only sent his henchman Hu Wenhua to lead the Shenji Battalion to go.
Hu Wenhua is just a commodity who is used to slapping horses and whiskers, and has never led troops to fight, so when the order of the military department arrived at the camp of the Jingxi Shenji Battalion, this cargo was almost scared on the spot. 100,000 Tatar iron cavalry, just hearing this number, Hu Wenhua was terrified, and the Shenji Battalion is currently only about 3,000 people, and the disparity in strength is so huge, wouldn't it be a death to go to Bauhinia Pass?
Just when Hu Wenhua was so frightened that the six gods had no master, one of his henchmen reminded: "Lord Commander, isn't Wang Lin'er still locked up, it's better to release him and let him lead the Divine Machine Battalion to help Bauhinia Pass." If the Bauhinia Pass is kept, it will naturally be indispensable to you; If Bauhinia Pass can't be guarded, it is estimated that Wang Lin'er will have become a Tartar ghost by then, hehe...... Let's put all the blame on him. ”
Hu Wenhua's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he blurted out: "Good idea, just do it!" ”
It is said that on the night of the sixth day of the ninth lunar month, Wang Lin'er and Pi Shiyi and the eight of them got together to drink secretly, but they were arrested by Hu Wenhua and imprisoned. Hu Wenhua originally wanted to wait for Xu Jin to be beheaded, so he fabricated charges to clean up Wang Lin'er, Xu Jin's former hardcore old department, but who knew that Xu Jin suddenly turned over, so Wang Lin'er and the other nine people are still locked up.
Bang dang......
The wooden door of the confinement room of the barracks was opened, and Hu Wenhua walked in under the escort of his own soldiers, and personally opened the handcuffs and shackles on Wang Lin'er's body, and said with a smile on his face: "Wang Tongzhi and the brothers have been wronged in the past two days, but the state has national laws, and the army has military regulations, and this commander can't ignore the law and discipline, right?" ”
At this time, Hu Wenhua's personal soldiers also opened the handcuffs and shackles of Guo Jindiao, Pi Shiyi, Lu Deshui and other eight people. Wang Lin'er moved his hands and feet, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he said quietly: "What Commander Hu said is extremely true, we gathered people to drink in the military camp, which really violated military regulations and should be punished." ”
Hu Wenhua nodded, and said solemnly: "Wang Tongzhi really understands the matter, then the commander is relieved, well, this commander has just received an order from the military department, and ordered the Shenji Battalion to rush to the aid of Bauhinia Pass......"
Wang Lin'er's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said, "There is a war in Bauhinia Pass?" ”
Hu Wenhua said with a solemn expression: "Eight hundred Bauhinia Pass is urgent, and I will personally lead 100,000 iron horsemen to knock on the pass, and the situation is urgent." ”
As soon as these words came out, Wang Lin'er, Guo Jindiao, Pi Shiyi, Lu Deshui and other nine people were all shocked, the 100,000 army of Tartars actually hit the Bauhinia Pass, are the tens of thousands of border troops in Datong Town decoration? Hemp eggs, a bunch of waste!
"When did the Tartar army go south? Why did it hit the Bauhinia Pass so quickly and Datong Town fell? Wang Lin'er asked in a deep voice.
Although Hu Wenhua was impatient, he still had to rely on Wang Lin'er and these fierce generals to lead the troops to fight, so he had to answer patiently: "The situation on the Datong side is not clear for the time being, but the Xuanfu side has already rushed to play, and the 30,000 horsemen of the Tatar Yong Xie Bu Department knocked on the pass in the early morning last night. ”
Wang Lin'er's heart couldn't help sinking, so it seems that the 100,000 iron horsemen I replied obviously also sent troops south in the early morning last night, and it only took three or four hours to kill the Bauhinia Pass, this is too fast, isn't it paper to kill Hukou and the defenders of Youyucheng?
"Wang Tongzhi, now the Bauhinia Pass is in danger, and there can be no delay for a moment, on the occasion of this national crisis, I hope everyone can abandon their previous suspicions and immediately go to the aid of Bauhinia Pass!" Hu Wenhua said with a sincere face.
Lu Deshui couldn't help sneering: "I said that the sun came out of the west, dare to burn the eyebrows, let us people come out as cannon fodder, Commander Hu's good idea!" ”
Hu Wenhua's old face was slightly embarrassed, and he feigned anger and said: "Fart, this is a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain, and now that the national disaster is at hand, you are still talking cool things here, which is simply insulting that you are wearing this suit of battle jackets." ”
Ma Baliang pouted and said: "The national crisis is at the head, shouldn't Commander Hu immediately lead the army to support the Bauhinia Pass at this moment?" Where do you have the time to play tricks with us prisoners! ”
Zhang Jiuzhong also sneered: "It is estimated that some people are greedy for life and afraid of death, fool us to be cannon fodder and scapegoats!" ”
Hu Wenhua's face stiffened, and after a moment, he arched his hand at Wang Lin'er and said: "Wang Tongzhi, don't be afraid to tell the truth, this commander has never led troops to fight, and Wang Tongzhi has experienced a hundred battles, and the brothers of the Shenji Battalion are willing to listen to you, so he is really the best candidate to lead the troops." It's not that this commander is greedy for life and afraid of death, the truth is that the stakes are very high, and there is no room for the slightest mistake, it doesn't matter if I Hu Wenhua dies on the battlefield, if the Bauhinia Pass is lost, my Ming Kingdom will be in danger! ”
Wang Lin'er frowned, he was not a fool, he naturally understood Hu Wenhua's wishful thinking, but Bauhinia Pass really cannot afford to lose, compared to the safety of the country, personal life and death, honor and disgrace are secondary, so he arched his hand at Hu Wenhua and said: "Xiaguan will summon the brothers to send troops to help Bauhinia Pass." ”
Hu Wenhua was overjoyed, nodded and said: "Okay, this commander fell from a horse yesterday and injured his ankle, but he can't go with Wang Tongzhi, and the Shenji Battalion will be fully handed over to Wang Tongzhi's command. ”
Guo Jindiao, Lu Deshui and others couldn't help but roll their eyes, and couldn't help but point at Hu Wenhua's nose and scold shameless!
Wang Lin'er didn't care, anyway, Hu Wenhua's greedy straw bag was also in the way, it was better to do what he wanted, and he was not constrained by this pig teammate.
At that moment, Wang Lin'er gathered the three thousand brothers of the Shenji Battalion, and everyone was reluctant at first, but they had enough of Hu Wenhua during this time, but when they heard that it was Wang Lin'er's full command, a group of fierce soldiers became enthusiastic.
Half an hour later, everything was ready, and the fully armed cavalry of the 3,000 Shenji Battalion left the camp and galloped in the direction of Bauhinia Pass, and at this time, Ali Chi also led 5,000 Tatar iron cavalry to rush towards the location of the Shenji Battalion camp, and the vanguard had arrived in Fangshan County.
Rumble......
Alichi's 5,000 Tatar iron horsemen swaggered past outside Fangshan County, and the sound of horses' hooves shook the earth and rolled up the dust. The four cities of Fangshan County were closed, and the officials and people at the head of the city were so frightened that their faces were like dirt, and they were fighting with their upper and lower teeth, but fortunately, this imposing Tatar cavalry just went around the city and went straight to Liangxiang.
The 5,000 Tatar Iron Cavalry and the 3,000 Divine Machine Battalion were galloping towards each other, and if you were to get a bird's-eye view from the sky at this time, you would see two rolling yellow dragons approaching rapidly along the official road......
Fangshan County and Liangxiang were also about 100 miles apart, and soon, the Tanma of the Tartars and the scouts of the Shenji Battalion met in the middle of the official road. The scout on the side of the Shenji Battalion was led by Pi Eleven, and he raised his hand with a shot, and dodged and killed one of the Tartar scouts on the spot, and the rest of the Tartar scouts immediately turned around and fled.
Pi 11 sent a scout to report to Wang Lin'er, and he took a dozen scout elites to chase and kill the Tartar Tanma all the way, chasing nearly twenty miles in one go, and finally saw the figure of the main force of the Tartar.
When he saw the mighty cavalry of the Tartars, Pi Eleven's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly turned around and fled back.
"Report, the main force of the Tartars appeared thirty miles ahead, with no less than five thousand troops, and the Bauhinia Pass is estimated to have fallen." Pi Eleven Pegasus came to Wang Lin'er and reported sweatingly.
Wang Lin'er's heart was shocked, it was broken, once the Bauhinia Pass was broken, there was no natural danger to block the horses' hooves of the Tartars, he was fighting with the cavalry of Lin and the Tartars, so he knew the powerful combat power of the Tartar cavalry, and the arrival of these 100,000 iron cavalry would be the endless nightmare of the Ming Dynasty!
"Withdraw!" Wang Lin'er decisively gave the order to retreat, and the Shenji Battalion immediately turned into a rear army and turned around and retreated in the direction of the capital.
Although the Shenji Battalion is full of firearms, Wang Lin'er is still self-aware, three thousand against five thousand, the Shenji Battalion has no chance of winning at all, not to mention that there are tens of thousands of Tatar iron cavalry behind it, and it is impossible for the Shenji Battalion to resist, without the city as a support, I believe that no Ming army can resist 100,000 Tatar iron cavalry, even if it is twice the strength of the force.
Wang Lin'er was originally a very stable person, he never did a loss-making business, knowing that he was invincible, he naturally would not take his brothers to death.
Drive......
The 3,000 men and horses of the Shenji Battalion galloped towards the capital at full speed, and the messenger of the warning had already reported to the capital in advance.
"Urgently, Bauhinia Pass has fallen! Bauhinia Pass Falls!! The messenger of the Shenji Battalion galloped past the small town of Jingxi, shouting the alarm repeatedly, and the townspeople were so frightened that they immediately packed up and ran away.
When the news of the fall of Bauhinia Pass reached the capital, the whole city shook instantly, and the rapid alarm bell sounded throughout the city, and the people outside the city cried and shouted for their mothers, hoping that the defenders could open the city gate and let them in to hide, but unfortunately it was only in vain, the Tartar army was about to be killed, and the defenders in the city dared to open the door!
The hundreds of thousands of people gathered outside the city were desperate and fled in endless terror!
Wenhua Palace, Zhu Hou sat on the throne with a pale expression, his hands and feet were cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, the Bauhinia Pass was broken, and the 100,000 army of the Tartars was about to be killed under the city, a great shame!
In the years when Zhu Hou ascended the throne, he cleared the Tianzhuang, re-cleared the land of the whole country, leveled the troubles, opened the sea for trade, and introduced new crops......
In the Wenhua Palace, the ministers were either solemn or silent, and no one dared to express their opinions easily.
Zhu Houmuran looked at the helpless ministers of civil and military affairs, and the corners of his mouth flashed with a trace of bitterness and sarcasm, these people usually compete for power and profit, but when it comes to a time of crisis, no one can share their worries!
At this moment, Zhu Hou couldn't help but think of Xu Jin, if he was present at the moment...... That's it! 2k reading web
