315 new thorns in the eye

(Today's chapter is presented, please collect and subscribe!!) ）

After the banquet began, Jia Wenru summoned the singing and dancing prostitutes to cheer up.

In this newly decorated lobby, there are not only opera troupes playing music, but even a few delicate singers, singing small songs in Jinse Yinzheng.

Sure enough, Fucheng is different, this kind of charming style, how can Li Zixiao and others see it in White Snake Village.

Looking at the table full of delicacies in front of him, Li Zixiao couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, did these Ming officials ever think of the massive homeless people outside who were not covered with clothes and hungry!

Looking at the scantily clad official prostitutes, their flattering eyes were thrown over one after another, and Zhou Dazhu, Sun Dazhuang and others had already seen their eyeballs, and they were about to stand out.

These women with sultry postures and sassy postures have too much impact on Zhou Dazhu and others.

After all, they are just young men in their twenties, and they can't stand these teasing.

When Jia Wen ordered several official prostitutes to serve Zhou Dazhu, Sun Dazhuang and others to drink, these young men who grew up in the poor countryside and had never experienced these scenes almost made a fool of themselves on the spot.

Only Li Zixiao's expression is quite normal, after all, he has seen all of them in the later life, and compared to those, these official prostitutes are nothing at all.

Therefore, he also ignored the two official prostitutes sitting next to him, but his appearance, in Jia Wenru's eyes, became the meaning that he didn't look down on these vulgar fans.

Seeing that Li Zixiao was not interested in these official prostitutes, Jia Wenru glanced at a singer who was a foreman beside him.

The foreman singer understood and immediately retreated, and after a while, she brought up a beautiful woman wearing a plain yellow petticoat and fair-skinned twenty-eight years old, and came to Li Zixiao's side.

and waved his hand to the two official prostitutes who were originally sitting next to Li Zixiao, and when the two official prostitutes saw this, they hurriedly retreated, and then the foreman singer sent this twenty-eight beauty to Li Zixiao's side.

The singer accompanied the smiling face and said: "The slave knows that adults don't look down on it, and the original two vulgar fans also know the arrangement of suitable talents, which is very inconsiderate.

Therefore, the slave and maid specially arranged for you and arranged another Qingqi person for you, I hope you will not dislike it. ”

After Li Zixiao heard this, he couldn't help crying and laughing, if it was on weekdays, he would naturally not refuse to send an affair to the door.

But at present, the enemy is at present, more than 7,000 Tartar soldiers are still eyeing the outside of the city, if he is still addicted to women, if he really let the Tartars break the city, his head is estimated to be hung on the city gate.

Looking at the generals around him, Li Zixiao knew that he would try to avoid entering this kind of occasion with these Ming officials in the future.

For their team in the rising period at this time, the most taboo is that their generals are greedy for comfort and do not want to forge ahead, which is simply poison.

"Lord Jia, let's drink the wine too, I have to deal with the siege of the Tartars tomorrow, I have to go back to the camp to rest, recuperate, and I can fight with the Tartars tomorrow."

Li Zixiao stood up and said politely to Jia Wenru.

Seeing Li Zixiao stand up and say goodbye, Zhou Dazhu and several other generals of the White Dragon Army also pushed away the official prostitutes next to them, straightened their armor, and stood behind Li Zixiao.

Seeing Li Zixiao's farewell, Jia Wenru, who was sitting in the first seat, thought that Li Zixiao was still dissatisfied with this Qingqi person.

Got out of his seat, came to Li Zixiao, and asked, "General Li, are you still dissatisfied with the official's arrangements tonight, even if you bring it up, the official should do his best to be a landlord!" ”

Li Zixiao shook his head and said half-truthfully: "Lord Jia, right now, the Tartars are still eyeing the outside of the city, and the enemy is now, the general really doesn't dare to relax for a moment, and I have no choice but to understand your good intentions." ”

"I see, it's rare for General Li to fulfill his duties, and this official admires it, so the official doesn't force it."

Jia Wenru secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, originally he thought that Li Zixiao was not satisfied with his arrangement.

In that case, Li Zixiao refused to do his best when defending the city, or suddenly picked on his son, then he would be miserable.

Now hearing Li Zixiao say this, Jia Wenru is like a stone hanging in his heart, and he can be regarded as letting go.

Thinking of this, Jia Wenru asked tentatively: "General Li, you led the army to reinforce Shunde this time, which can be described as a high degree of hard work, as long as you can defend this Shunde Mansion."

This official will report your merits to the Ministry of War, and after a period of time after the Tartars retire, the court will reward them for their merits, and I believe that General Li will naturally be promoted again! ”

Li Zixiao's society over the years has not been in vain, as soon as Jia Wenru's words came out, he understood the meaning of this Jia Governor's Mansion.

He was worried that after the Tartars retreated, Li Zixiao would still lead the troops to stay in the city and not leave.

I saw Li Zixiao smile slightly and said, "Lord Jia, please rest assured, this trip is the king of Qin, who went north."

After helping Lord Jia defeat the group of Tartars outside the city, the general will continue to go north, but our army has not much food and grass, and I hope that the adults will help more. ”

Li Zixiao's meaning is very clear, you can rest assured, I will not stay, but continue to go north.

But I'll help you drive the Tartars away, but you have to mean it, and you need to get all the food and grass I need.

What kind of person is Jia Wenru, it is an old fritter who has been up and down in officialdom for half a life, Li Zixiao's words, he naturally understood it as soon as he heard it.

Li Zixiao's assurance finally let go of his heart, he was really worried that Li Zixiao would stay in Shunde and not leave, you must know that he can't afford to raise such an elite army of more than 3,000 people.

And he didn't even want to give up this grain and grass in his heart, who let his treasury be empty.

But he also knew that people helped him defend against the Tartars and defend the city, if he didn't even provide food and grass, then Li Zixiao would probably really roll his eyes with him.

Therefore, Jia Wenru immediately raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "General Li, don't worry, if you bring your soldiers to help, can this official still make all the soldiers hungry, and the problem of grain and grass is on this official." ”

"It seems that this grain can only be obtained from the big families in the city."

Jia Wenru thought in his heart, but then he thought of the big families in the city who were struggling to pick and choose, and if he wanted to get food out of their hands, he probably had to be busy.

Li Zixiao doesn't care where Jia Wenru gets grain, as long as he gives him food when the time comes,

So, he raised his wine glass, the two touched it lightly, and suddenly made a crisp "clanging" sound, and then returned to the barracks with his generals.

……………………………………………………

"Brother Chen, let's say goodbye back then, I haven't seen each other for five or six years, you are still the same, a rigid face, nothing has changed, hahaha!"

"I haven't changed, you have changed too much, I really didn't expect you to follow this General Li.

A year ago, I saw the imperial court's wanted warrant for you, and I was really worried about you, and now I am relieved to see that you are not only alive and well, but also a general, and so many elite soldiers under your command. ”

On the city wall of Shunde, Chen Luo and Liu Zhong were inspecting the city wall and talking at the same time, and the two were old acquaintances.

Li Zixiao took Quartz, Zhou Dazhu and Sun Dazhuang and others to Jia Wenru's mansion for a banquet, but Liu Chong asked himself to stay in the camp, and Li Zixiao approved.

Liu Chong's hometown is Shunde, and the two families were still friends in the early years, Chen Luo can be said to be Liu Chong's brother who played since he was a child, not a brother, but better than a brother.

It's a pity that Liu Chong's parents passed away early, and Liu Chong left Shunde early and went out to join the army, while Chen Luo stayed in Shunde.

"I was framed by traitors before, forced to leave the border army, and wanted by the government, but in the end it was the general who saved me, and since then I have sold my life to the general.

Fortunately, God favored me to meet the Lord, and now I really want to thank those traitors and villains back then, if it weren't for their frame-up, how could I have met the general, and I wouldn't have today's achievements. ”

Liu Zhong said with emotion.

"Yes, I have never heard of this General Li before, but when I saw his subordinates today, all of them exuded a fierce aura, and their eyes were full of murderous intent, they were really a tiger and wolf army.

Especially when you fought a short battle with the Tartar cavalry outside the city, since the Tartar cavalry, who had always been arrogant, suffered such a big loss, it really looked like a brother and my blood was boiling. ”

Chen Luo also belongs to that kind of rectum, a dead face, after meeting Liu Chong, he finally smiled, but he still looked so stiff.

"What is this, you don't know, a month ago, the general brought us to a place called Ma Guanying in Baoding, and ate 3,000 Tartars in one go.

In that battle, we killed the Tartars with rivers of blood and corpses all over the place, which was really painful! ”

Liu Chong said excitedly that so far, he has regarded it as his honor to participate in and command the battle of the Maguan Battalion.

"What, brother, that's true." After Chen Luo listened to Liu Chong's words, a look of shock also appeared on his face.

He knew Liu Chong's personality and would not deceive him, but hearing such shocking news still made Chen Luo suspicious, and couldn't help but ask again.

"Brother Chen, my brother can't lie to you, it's just that the general is worried about the retaliation of the Tartars, so he deliberately didn't spread this battle, you just listen to it, but don't go out and tell people!"

Liu Chong whispered to Chen Luo.

"You have surrounded and annihilated 3,000 Tartars, and your General Li is just a guerrilla, and it is very good to have these 3,000 elite men and horses under your command.

With just your 3,000 people, how can you encircle and annihilate a 3,000-strong Tartar army, brother, do you really think that the Tartar soldiers are so easy to kill! I don't know if I should trust you or not.

Don't worry, I won't say it, because if I say it, people will laugh at me. Chen Luo shook his head and said.

Liu Chong just wanted to see what he said, but he held back again.

He actually wanted to tell Chen Luo that when they went north this time, Li Zixiao brought nearly 10,000 horses, like the elite team under him, and there were two more outside.

But Liu Zhong remembered Li Zixiao's order that at any time, they must not disclose the military situation of their White Dragon Army to others.

So at this time, even in the face of Chen Luo, Liu Chong still chose to conceal it.

"Brother Chen, why don't you come and do it with the general, it is better than you to be a soldier and horse garrison in this Shunde Mansion, with your ability, when you get to our army, you will definitely be reused by the general."

Even you can lead a battalion of men and horses, just like me. At this time, Liu Chong even had the idea of pulling Chen Luo to the White Dragon Army.

Liu Chongke knows that his eldest brother's ability is by no means below him, and he is also a rare brave and resourceful general.

After Chen Luo heard this, his heart was also moved, and he also hoped that he could lead an elite team of men and horses like Liu Chong, which was what a general longed for the most.

Anyway, he, the Shunde soldiers and horses, really didn't mean anything, the group of old and weak soldiers under his command, it was okay to scare and scare ordinary people, and he could only count on them to go to the battlefield and fight with the Tartars.

But in the end, Chen Luo still shook his head and said, "Brother, my mother has just passed away for two years, and I want to keep filial piety for her at home for three years, and I still have the last year left, so I can't leave for you." ”

"Auntie died?" Liu Zhong said in surprise.

"Yes."

"I'm sorry, big brother, I don't know, I'll take me to pay a visit to my aunt!"

"Yes."

"Big brother, when your filial piety is over, it's not too late to bring it to our General Li, a talent like you, no matter when you come, our general will welcome it."

"Okay, let's talk about it."

……………………………………………………

The night passed slowly, and the Tartar soldiers who took advantage of the night to steal the city did not happen.

For night raids and sieges, for the Tartar soldiers, they are not good at it, but with the entry of the White Dragon Army, Abatai will not give such a stupid order.

In the northern land in December, the weather is very cold, and it is the Xiaoice era, the climate is even colder, and the coldest temperature can reach minus ten degrees.

Such a cold weather will cause a lot of trouble for the White Dragon Army, but fortunately, every soldier of the White Dragon Army is equipped with cotton clothes, and the impact of the cold climate on them is minimized.

The next day the weather was good, it was a sunny day, and the wind was not strong, and the day was just dawn, and the camp of the Tartar soldiers was already busy.

Thousands of Tartar auxiliaries, pushing hundreds of large shield carts, wheelbarrows and other things, slowly pushed towards Shunde City.

At the same time, a large group of Tartar army cavalry also began to collect money to Shunde City.

Looking from the head of Shunde City, a red and blue flag forms a large sea of flags, and behind this flag, there is a huge woven gold dragon silk, which is particularly attractive.

Countless Tartar soldiers looked back at this golden dragon weaving dragon, their eyes were full of a burning gaze, which was the location of the main general of Abatai.

Under the countless banners, there stood Tartar soldiers in delicate armor, their shining blades, shining brightly in the sunlight.

Originally, Abatai's siege of Shunde Mansion this time was just for show, hoping to lure out Lu Xiangsheng to appear, so that the main force of the Tartars who followed closely behind could eat the 20,000 Tianxiong army in Lu Xiangsheng's hands in one go.

But Abatai didn't expect that Lu Xiangsheng was not brought out, but such an equally elite Ming army was introduced.

Moreover, after the loss of 3,000 men and horses in the Maguan camp last time, and the strength of the White Dragon Army that Abatai saw with his own eyes this time, Abatai put the White Dragon Army in the same position as the Guanning Iron Cavalry and the Tianxiong Army.

So today, Abatai no longer intends to feint to attack Shunde Mansion, he wants to really capture Shunde Mansion, and the most important thing is to completely eliminate this elite 'Ming army'.

Abatai even sent someone to report the details of the situation to Dolgon in the north.

I hope that Dolgon can take the main force of the Tartars to the south, eat this elite 'Ming army' in one go, and not give Li Zixiao a chance to grow up.

Early in the morning, Abatai mobilized all the troops in his hands that could be mobilized to the city of Shunde, preparing to eliminate the new thorn in his eyes in one bite.
