After receiving the order of the military headquarters, it was the Chihe battalion and the guards who were on shift who hurried over. The Chihe Battalion was a branch of the Nanjing Jing Battalion, stationed in Beicheng, and its main task was to assist in the defense of the river and guard the mausoleum. The guards were the Jichuan guards who assisted in the defense of the city in shifts in the current season -- there were 49 guards in Nanjing, which were under the jurisdiction of the military department, and they were rotated into the city every quarter to assist in the defense of the city.

Although it is located in Liudu, the phenomenon of empty salaries and desertion of the guards is better than that of other places, and the weapons and equipment are also more complete, but they cannot be compared with the Qiong navy, which has just won a battle.

Although the Qiong Navy has a majority of recruits, after experiencing the fierce battle of Seeking Rain Mountain, it has undergone a transformation in spirit. Unlike the rather nervous soldiers of the Chihe Battalion and the Jichuan Guard, the Qiong Navy soldiers stood with their guns raised, without the slightest nervousness or uneasiness, and the expressions on their faces were cold and calm, and the thousands of people did not move at all, like a group of cold machines.

This situation put more pressure on Chiheying and Jichuanwei. The soldiers were nervous, and beads of sweat the size of beans also appeared on the foreheads of the Chihe battalion staff general and the commander of the Jichuan Guard, and they were ordered to come to stop the other party, but looking at this posture, the other party may make a move at any time, not a joke. With such a close distance and such a dense array, once you start to move, you are afraid that there will be a river of blood outside the Hongwu Gate.

At this moment, several soft sedan chairs hurriedly came out of the opposite street, passed through the array of Chihe Ying and Jichuan Wei, and came to the front. A scarlet-robed official took the lead in getting out of the sedan chair, came to the front, and asked loudly: "I am the Shangshu Wang Xuan of the Ministry of War, who is in front of me, and why did you trespass into the Forbidden City?" ”

Seeing that one of the three giants, the military department Shangshu arrived, Xia Nan took a few steps forward, and replied loudly across the two rows of soldiers: "This official is Xia Nan, the chief military officer of Pingnan, Qionghai Town, and he was ordered by the military department to go to Nanzhili to suppress Kou. A few days ago, in Jiangpu County, Qiuyu Mountain met the combined forces of Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong, won a complete victory, captured the thief Gao Yingxiang, and was escorted to the capital. After the war, there were many casualties among his subordinates, and he wanted to enter the city to treat the wounded soldiers, but he didn't expect the defenders to make things difficult in every way, and they did their best to insult them. ”

Several waiters behind Wang Xuan got off the sedan chair one after another, and were very dissatisfied when they heard Xia Nan's answer, and said to Wang Xuan: "This person is just a vulgar martial artist, facing the second grade Shangshu, and he also claims to be his own official, and he is extremely arrogant, and it is clear that the Lord is standing in front of him, and he also has a military department, and he does not say that it is the Beijing Military Department. ”

Wang Xuan stretched out his hand to stop their discussion, and said lightly: "These are just small sections, people with ability are always more conceited than ordinary people, it doesn't matter." ”

"My lord, do you believe his words? The thieves and thieves claim to be 100,000, how can only a few thousand people win? ”

Wang Xun shook his head: "Capture Gao Yingxiang alive and send it to the capital, no one dares to tell such a big lie, and it will be exposed in a few days." If Gao Yingxiang is really caught, then it is true to defeat Gao and Zhang's joint army, otherwise there are tens of thousands of troops around the thief, how can he be captured? ”

When everyone thought about it, this was really the truth. If you don't defeat the Liukou coalition army, you won't be able to catch Gao Yingxiang; If Gao Yingxiang is successfully captured, then Liukou will definitely be defeated, and in the words of modern mathematics, the two are sufficient and necessary conditions for each other.

Wang Xun then analyzed: "Although this general soldier brazenly led troops into the city, he did not plunder, which shows that although he is arrogant, he still has fear in his heart, and he will not make things out of control." It seems that his words are true, after the big victory, he was a little fluttering, but he was lame at the city gate, annoyed and angry, and only then did he do such an impulsive thing, and everything still has room for salvation. ”

He shouted at the other side: "Mr. Xia, what you said, this official will send someone to verify, if it is true, this official will give you an explanation." But in any case, it is a serious crime to enter the city and storm the palace, and if you are impulsive, the official will not pursue it, as long as you take the troops out of the city, everything can be discussed. ”

Since Xia Nan led the troops into the city, he didn't plan to quit obediently, and the so-called non-accountability could only deceive the children, which was a strategy to delay the army, but Wang Xun was afraid of doing it outside the palace and destroying the Forbidden City, so he couldn't bear the responsibility.

He replied with a smile: "Lord Wang Shangshu has a lot, and he doesn't care about me, so I'm really grateful." In this case, it is okay for me to leave the city, find a place to house my wounded soldiers, and then find the most clever Langzhong in the city to treat them, and when their injuries are healed, I will naturally take people out of Nanjing City. ”

Wang Xun's face sank, how could the injuries suffered on the battlefield get better so quickly, they all said that the wounded muscles and bones would move for a hundred days, and the wounded soldiers would not be good for a day, so he would have to stay in Nanjing City all the time? Isn't this a trick to change the concept?

At this moment, another group of soldiers came to the street leading to the square to the west, surrounded by a tall white horse, and at once there was a knight of about forty years of age, dressed in silver shining armor, and quite heroic between his eyebrows. The knight walked straight up to Wang Xun and dismounted, and asked, "What is it that is so tense?" ”

Wang Xun saluted and said, "Xia Guan has seen Wei Guogong. And then to make a long story short, tell the story of what happened.

This person is the hereditary Duke of Wei, the crown prince Taibao, and the Nanjing garrison Xu Hongji. After receiving the report from the Ministry of War, he was taken aback, and immediately put on his armor and mounted his horse, ordered all the soldiers in the house, and rushed to the Hongwu Gate without stopping.

After listening to the introduction, Xu Hongji frowned, shook his head and said: "Lord Wang is too tolerant, leading the troops to invade Nanjing City without permission, this opening cannot be opened, if it is not investigated, in the future, any cat and dog can lead the soldiers in and around, what kind of system?" ”

Wang Xun was embarrassed and said, "But what if you fight here, what if you hurt the Forbidden City?" ”

Xu Hongji snorted: "I'm afraid that this guy won't dare to do it, otherwise he would have been plundered a long time ago." I have already transferred the Zhenwu battalion and am on the way, working with the Chihe battalion and Jichuan Wei to force him out of the city! "The Zhenwu Battalion is also one of the troops of the Nanjing Beijing Battalion, and the Chihe Battalion and the Shenji Battalion constitute the core of the Beijing Battalion.

It didn't take long for the heavily armed Zhenwu business to arrive in a hurry. With the addition of the Chihe battalion and the Jichuan guard, the strength reached 7,000 people.

Seeing that the Zhenwu camp arrived, Xu Hongji ordered with full confidence: "Form a formation, and then shout, if you don't retreat within a stick of incense, you will bear the consequences!" ”

The soldiers with loud voices passed Xu Hongji's words word for word to the other side, and Xia Nan smiled and said: "This person is still arrogant in front of the military department, it is estimated that he is Wei Guogong, the commander of the Nanjing garrison." He guesses that he will be so tough because he will eat us. ”

He ordered: "Prepare for battle and teach the defenders of Nanjing how to behave!" ”
