The monks called Amitabha Buddha, but they agreed with Zhu Si's words in their hearts, and Fu Shan resonated with his own mental journey, and Zhu Si also recited a poem by Cangyang Gyatso, the son of the Buddha in later generations, at the end of this topic: "I was worried about hurting the Brahman, and I was afraid that I would not fall into the city when I entered the mountain." The world is safe and perfect, and it lives up to its promise. All praised it: good poetry. The great monk Huiyuan even said: "Your Majesty, as the king of a country, has a benevolent heart, but if a politician can take the rise and fall of the world as his own responsibility, even if some past behaviors are to be discussed, as long as his heart is right, it will be benevolent." As for its original intentions, it will definitely be forgiven by everyone. It can be said that regardless of whether the human body has escaped into the empty door or not, everyone has the nature of becoming a Buddha. The cycle of life and death, this nature does not change. Whether you are in a temple or a palace, whether you are living or killing, whether you are crossing others or yourself, are all in one thought. As long as the heart is good, everyone can attain Bodhi. ”

The afterglow of the setting sun brought carrier pigeons, and after reading the secret letter that Deng Kai handed over to him, Zhu Si frowned. Then immediately said goodbye, left Longxing Temple, rushed to Fengyang City's Xihua Gate, to the garrison of the army to find Du Yinxi and Hong Chengchou, as soon as they met, they said to the two of them: "In Yucheng with Gao Bizheng for more than ten days, it is really the main army of Dolgon, I thought that relying on Gao Bizheng's tens of thousands of horses, it would not be a problem to hold on to Yucheng for more than a month, but what I didn't expect was that the Qing army's offensive was progressing so fast, Gao Bizheng said that at most three more days, Yucheng will be broken!" ”

。

Zhu Si's words made Gu Yinxi and Hong Chengchou greatly shocked, Hong Chengchou said: "Long live, if Yucheng is lost, Hao Yongzhong will be in great danger outside Xuzhou, and I am afraid that Dolgon may not be aware of the gathering of our army in Fengyang, if Yucheng cannot be rescued, we should be prepared for a decisive battle with Dolgon in Xuzhou." ”

Zhu Si saw that Hong Chengchou was avoiding the topic, and everyone knew that after just getting the news that Yucheng was about to break the city, Zhu Si only found what the two commanders of the imperial camp and the five armies of the imperial camp were talking to, that must be to let the two of them lead the five armies of the imperial camp to Yucheng to rescue. However, Hong Chengchou had already done the buy one get one free thing, and he had already become a frightened bird, afraid that he would suffer the kind of fiasco that happened when he rescued Jinzhou Zu Dashou in the Battle of Songjin again.

Zhu Si was also able to understand Hong Chengchou's state of mind, and did not reprimand, but Du Yinxi stood up and said: "The minister thinks that Gao Bizheng should be rescued, the first reason is that the morale of my army is currently strong, so if we don't rescue a heavy army group and let it fend for itself, it will have a negative impact on the morale of the army, and it will chill the morale of the army." Second, once the main force of the Qing army arrives at the city of Xuzhou, our goal of destroying the enemy in a decisive battle will definitely not be achieved. First, the main force of the Qing army was more mobile than our army, and he defeated Da Ke to abandon Xuzhou and Meng Qiaofang and Li Guohan in the city, and then withdrew from the battlefield; And with the strength of the main force of the Qing army and the strength of the defenders of Xuzhou, it is really difficult for our army to have any chance of winning. Once our army is defeated, it will immediately face the danger of annihilation, and the minister implores to lead the imperial army to rescue Yucheng. ”

Zhu Si nodded and said: "The two Qing families are all masters of the art of war, so they naturally know the truth that Cao Di's polemic is one go, then declines, and three is exhausted. We can use Yucheng as the first decisive battle, and the two of you will lead the troops to Yucheng quickly, no matter whether Yucheng is still in our hands at that time, we must line up outside Yucheng to meet the enemy, and then we will do this again...... "Academy."

Since Zhu Si had already given the order, Hong Chengchou naturally couldn't escape anymore, although he complained a little in his heart about Gu Yinxi's volunteering, but he also knew that Du Yinxi's analysis of meeting the enemy in Xuzhou and Zhu Si's design of using Yucheng as the decisive battle location were correct. It's just that this kind of correct military order is very likely to take the lives of him and the Qingqing of Plug Yinxi.

After the two of them came out of the tent, on the way to the camp of the imperial camp, Du Yinxi asked Hong Chengchou: "Is Hong Gong already cowardly in his heart?" Hong Chengchou shook his head and said: "Hong is not a coward, nor is he afraid of death, otherwise after being captured in Shenyang, Hong would not have gone on a hunger strike." It's just that "soldiers, murder weapons, saints have to use them as a last resort". In such a big battle, Hong only hopes that the saint will not make mistakes in deployment, and only hopes that my Ming will not repeat the mistakes of the Battle of Songjin. ”

Plug Yinxi said: "The battle of Songjin, if it weren't for the order to go out of many doors, Daming might not be defeated." Today, you and I should take this as a warning, and blocking someone will never hinder you like Zhang Ruoqi, the prison army of Hong Gong back then. Hong Chengchou exclaimed: "What does Lord Block mean ......" Block Yinxi nodded and said: "Exactly, although someone is the commander of the five armies of the imperial camp, this battle should also be made virtuous to you, the commander of the same knowledge." ”

Hong Chengchou arched his hand and said: "Blocking the adult's wrong love, the lower officials don't dare." Du Yinxi waved his hand and said, "Eh, what did Hong Gong say?" I think the five armies of my imperial camp are good at the car formation, and the car formation is Hong Gong's strength. If Zhang Ruolin listened to Hong Gong's opinion in the Battle of Songjin, forced him to form a chariot formation, did not fight lightly, and advanced steadily step by step, why was the army defeated to such a point? This time we will fight Yucheng again, and all the troops of my imperial camp will obey the command of Hong Gong, and you and I will definitely be ashamed of the defeat of Cedar Brocade! ”

Hong Chengchou said excitedly: "Okay! Hong will definitely live up to the high hopes of Long Live Lord and Lord Du. Gu Yinxi nodded and said, "Okay, you and I swear by high-fives!" Du Yinxi and Hong Chengchou clapped their hands three times and swore: "This time I swear, the two of us will lead the five armies of the imperial camp to fight to the end, and we will be ashamed before the defeat of Cedar Jin!" After taking the oath, the two laughed and walked into the gate and led the army to march.

At this time, Zhu Si was still holding Gao Bizheng's letter in his hand, and said to himself: "Lao Gao has always dared to fight, and he has never served anyone in the military journey in the past decades. If it weren't for the fact that he could no longer save the situation on his own, he would never have written such a letter. Zhu Si sniffed the letter again, and the smell of gunsmoke on it was still there, which showed the intensity of the battle. Zhu Si's heart sank, and he hurriedly wrote a reply letter, in which he said to Gao Bizheng: "Be sure to defend the city for another four days, within four days, the army will arrive!" Live well, I don't want you to die. Your battle is related to the decisive battle of the entire Central Plains, Yucheng is defeated, the Ming army will be defeated, and the city will be defended for four days, and the Ming army will win a complete victory! ”

The pigeons flew away, and these carrier pigeons have always been the magic weapon in Zhu Si's hands, relying on these angels of peace to convey the message of the battle seems to have become the only weapon that the Ming army can surpass the Qing army in this decisive battle. The five armies of the imperial camp immediately rushed to the battlefield without a moment's delay. After Gao Bizheng received Zhu Si's reply, he said to Jiang Jianxun with mixed feelings: "Long live the letter really said that Yucheng defended the city for four days, and the army will win?" ”
