Chapter 108: The Last General
The battle in Baigucheng was over, and Chen Mu ordered the banner army to take Chen An to recognize more than 3,000 soldiers and thousands of prisoners, but no trace of Mang Yingli was found.
The banner army continued to search among the ruins and broken walls with a bird gun with a stabbing gun, but Chen Mu thought that the little prince of Burma was likely to have fled outside the city, but now it didn't matter to him whether he could catch Mang Yingli or not, so he turned around and issued an order to escort Chen An into Guangxi and be executed by the government according to the law.
Military affairs were handed over to Deng Zilong and Bai Yuanjie, and he accompanied Ming Fan for a walk in the palace.
"Oh, the handsome man's strict military appearance is really in vain for the last general to lead the army uninvited!"
The golden helmet with two long tassels inserted in the fierce spoon had been untied and held in the hands of the servant when Lin Xiao brought it to Chen Mu, and now he was wearing a jade ring hairscarf on his head, pinching gold silk and silver thread on his shoulder-covered robe, and a pair of cowhide combat boots under his feet, one by one, a 'border general', looking more like a Ming Dynasty general than Chen Mu wearing a cuirass.
"The war situation is really urgent, Wen Tianjun from Yunnan into Sanxuan Liuhui to defeat Mang Yinglong, the last general immediately raised troops to respond to the Heavenly Army, blocking the pass to cut off the back road of Donghu. However, the Heavenly Army was worried that the last general and the elder brother of Na Buchen would make a trick and surrender, and Yu Dashuai refused to join forces with me. ”
Meng Lao said such tongue twisters without the slightest stumble, beating his chest and sudden, he was very sad, and said: "Brother has left a spy in our army, causing the soldiers to rebel, and the pain of losing the pass, can not stop his troops in Ava, listen to the news that the Beiben people brought the news that the imperial court army has broken Bago, and the last general will take advantage of the situation to run south, stop the army of Donghu in the north of Bago Mountain, and come to join the marshal!" ”
As he spoke, he hugged his fists and opened his hands and said: "Three Xuan Xuan and six condolences for the restoration of the country!" ”
Chen Mu was all praised, this was probably the most energetic fan he had ever seen in his life, and he felt that normal people couldn't pretend to be so sincere.
As far as the generals under him are concerned, sometimes they still put 'Da Ming' on their lips, but look at this fierce spoon, although the name is weird, but no matter the head or words and deeds, the whole big Ming little fan brother, others can pretend, but how to pretend to be this inadvertent words?
People have never mentioned the word Daming from beginning to end, either the dynasty or the imperial court, never mentioned me Burma, only said that he was in the east and picked himself clean!
Chen Mu looked at the handsome golden helmet held by the servant of the fierce spoon, and smiled at him: "Your Excellency has violated the rules, why do you call yourself a border general?" ”
Meng Lao glanced back at the golden helmet, his face was a little confused, and he said in surprise: "Difficult, handsome, don't the generals of the two capitals and thirteen provinces wear such a hood?" It shouldn't be, that's how "The Complete Biography of the Water Margin" is written, that's right! ”
As he spoke, Meng Lao laughed embarrassedly again, and said to Chen Mu: "The imperial court has not sent the slightest letter to the last general, and it is not more than a common man, I am afraid that the last general will also violate the system, but he brought more than 10,000 essences, and the elite villagers came here to defect, and the dynasty must always be sympathetic to the feelings of contempt, and will not condemn me, right?" ”
"In fact, the last general defected to the heavenly army for nothing else, one is to wash my father's grievances, my father has never thought of rebelling against the court, it is all reckless Yinglong's own desires; Second, I hope that the imperial court can send a letter to the last general Jinshu Yin - Sanxuan Liuwei has not received the news of the imperial court's replacement of the seal letter for a long time, and in the long run, it will be impossible to suppress the subordinate Tusi, otherwise how can anyone dare to rebel against the imperial court? ”
"That Mang Yinglong is just my father and nephew, how can He De command the six comforts, but also disrespect the court, privately appointed his son Mang Yingli as the prince, and wants to receive three Xuan and six comforts for the generations of his family's land, where is there such a reason, Dashuai, do you say yes!"
Chen Mu almost laughed out loud, he understood, it was still the old drama of fighting for power and profit, and he couldn't fight against Mang Yinglong on his own, if there was no accident, he might be in the shadow of Mang Yinglong for the rest of his life, but now that he was catching up with the Ming army, he had to jump whatever he said.
Second Master Chen nodded with a smile, he has always liked to laugh, and his smile is a very deceptive demeanor, but he really thinks it is very interesting to see Meng Lao, whether it is for him as a person, or the impact of this person's appearance on his strategy, it is worth being happy.
He asked: "The imperial court has no virtue in governing the three Xuan and six comforts over the years, and there is no restraint, don't you hate it, originally under the rule of Mang Yinglong, you may not be able to be crowned the king and marquis, why do you want to be a Tusi?" ”
"Hate!"
Meng Lao replied very simply, clenched his fists and said: "The last general deeply hates the country and the dynasty for having the trouble of being captured in the south and the north, and he can't free his hands to deal with the three Xuan and six comforts, otherwise it won't be the result like today, my father often said when he was chased into Donghu that if there was a heavenly army to help, he would not end up in such a field, and he also hated the Yunnan officials of the national dynasty for being greedy and derelict in their duties, and did not distinguish between good and evil. ”
"The most annoying thing is that Mang Yinglong's father and son still have to use those instructors from the west to Portugal in my three Xuan and six comforts, and train the elite to do their spear formation, this non-sergeant has not been trained yet, and he will be beaten to a pulp in a blink of an eye." Meng Spoon slapped his hands and said: "Don't say that they are overseas Xiaoyi, just one point, they don't have a good heart, if the court is magnanimous and benevolent, the last general will not let them train the army." ”
Chen Mu smiled, and when he heard Chen Mu's laughter, the fierce spoon that had been full of face became more serious, and said: "Don't laugh at me for being careful, they are different in color and appearance from me, and they are also spying back and forth, and they have been exterminated by the thorns, and they have come across the ocean, how can they be just for trading." ”
"The last general's heart is to the imperial court, not just because of reverence for the benevolence and righteousness of the country, as the marshal said, if Mang Yinglong can command all places, he will definitely not give me the title of king, but he can be an Awa Hou, but he is more than that, he wants to declare war on the imperial court, and intends to attack Yunnan, the last general has carefully considered."
"The two sides are at war, the imperial court Yunnan military has been in ruin for a long time, and the Donghu army is flourishing, but there is a temporary victory, but where is there a corner of the truth that wins the world, and there is a defeat in the end; He recklessly responded to the Xuanwei Division in Burma, and his son Mang Yingli was in the 800 Xuanwei Division, but I Awa faced the Yunnan soldiers, and if he wanted to rebel against the imperial court, he wanted to kill me with the sword of the imperial court. ”
"The last general doesn't want to and will never rebel against the court, even if the army with the court is not trusted, Yunnan will not give me the title of king and marquis after the war, even if it is impossible to be a general under the command of the marshal, but the court governance of the three Xuan and six comforts is always used by the last general, and I can be a toast to keep the peace forever, which has been all my heart...... What did you say? ”
He said 'probably'.
Chen Mu smiled and nodded: "I said maybe, do you have a son, for the court to defeat Mang Yinglong, I don't know if the court will set up a local official here, if there is a local official, your son will be a consolation envoy; If there is no local official, then you will have more sons and become a prefect; The imperial court is on the occasion of using troops, you go with me, I will let you be a real Ming general, with your ability, the marquis of war! ”
