Chapter 288: Discuss and repay the merit!

"What? The Tartars have retired? ”
Chen Zhong was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly said: "Come on, hurry!" Bring these brothers to the head of the city. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
There was still some distance from the city gate, and the soldiers around him did not dare to slack off, so they hurriedly put down the bamboo basket and pulled these sentry scouts up.
The leading sentry saluted Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong, and hurriedly explained: "The two generals, a few lowly people, have been waiting on the east side of Xiaoshan, since the morning, the Houjin army camp began to pack up and evacuate, the shape is very hurried, when we come back, most of their camp has been withdrawn. There is nothing wrong with a humble position that dares to use a head guarantee on a project. ”
Chen Zhong glanced at Li Yuanqing happily, "Yuanqing, did the Tartars really retire?" Ha ha! Hahaha......"
He couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Li Yuanqing nodded, "A few brothers have worked hard, come here, take them down to rest first, and let the firefighters add 2 taels of meat to each of them." ”
"General Xie."
Several sentries couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly followed their soldiers and left happily.
Li Yuanqing slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and looked in the southeast direction.
Although he had expected that the Houjin army would retreat, he didn't expect it to be so soon, and the Houjin army actually retreated in the rain.
According to the current situation, the Houjin army has not much food and grass, if it is hard again, and it will be harassed and attacked by the Ming army a few more times, I am afraid that the people's hearts will be scattered, and it will be unwise.
With Huang Taiji's wisdom, he would definitely not make such a mistake.
However, according to Huang Taiji's temperament, even if he wants to leave, he should be calm, why is it so urgent?
At this time, Chen Zhong also reacted and hurriedly said: "Yuanqing, could this be Huang Taiji's miscellaneous tactics to delay the army?" Want to lure us into taking the bait? ”
Li Yuanqing nodded, "Big brother, I don't rule out this possibility." Huang Taiji is ruthless and decisive, very courageous, we must not be careless, or we should act steadily. ”
Chen Zhong nodded, but smiled, "Yuanqing, I'm afraid of him." Fuzhou City is impregnable, can he still fly in? We have enough food and well-fed, so we are not in a hurry. This rain will not fall, and when the rain stops tomorrow, we will send someone to investigate again, and it will be clear naturally. ”
Li Yuanqing nodded, and suddenly said, "Big brother, you say, will it be the marshal ......of the Eastern Front?"
But before Li Yuanqing's words fell, another messenger rushed over in the city, riding a few mules, "Report ~~~, the headquarters of the Eastern Front is urgent." ”
"Bring it up."
Mao Wenlong's information, Li Yuanqing did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked his own soldiers to bring the information.
Opening and glancing, the corners of Li Yuanqing's mouth couldn't help but show a hearty smile.
"Yuanqing, what's wrong with Dashuai?" Although Chen Zhong had vaguely guessed the ending, he still wanted to hear Li Yuanqing confirm it personally.
Li Yuanqing smiled and handed the letter to Chen Zhong, "Big brother, look at it yourself!" Hahaha! The handsome and mighty, the Dongjiang River is mighty! ”
Chen Zhong took the letter and glanced at it, but his head was two big, he knew these words, but unfortunately, these words didn't recognize him.
Hurriedly said: "Yuanqing, tell your brother quickly." My brother and master are not here. ”
Li Yuanqing realized this and said with a smile: "Big brother, let's lead the army to fight, and if we want to go further, we need to know more words." If you have time to find a gentleman, let's learn together. ”
Li Yuanqing said, busy with the battle of Mao Wenlong's headquarters on the Eastern Front, and briefly introduced Chen Zhong.
When Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong dragged the main force of Houjin on the Western Front, Mao Wenlong did not disappoint.
First, Chen Jisheng set up an ambush in Jiazigou, not far from Yizhou City, and wiped out the two Niu Lu of the Dudu Department with white flags in one fell swoop.
Subsequently, Mao Wenlong led his headquarters in the west of Yizhou City, and defeated more than 20 Niu Lu of Amin and Du Du with blue and white flags from the front, and won nearly 1,000 heads.
Amin and Du Du had no choice but to retreat to Zhenjiang City to recuperate.
As a result, Eju has become an isolated city.
After besieging the city for half a month, Mao Wenlong opened up the joints in the city, combined with the inside and outside of the city, broke through the city of Yizhou, and captured the defender Sun Degong alive.
Poor Sun Degong sold the Ming army's teammates clean when he was in Guangning City, so that dozens of generals and tens of thousands of soldiers such as Liu Qu, the chief soldier of the Ming army, and Luo Yicheng, the deputy general, stained the battlefield with blood, and hundreds of thousands of people suffered a catastrophe.
At this time, he was imitated by his subordinates, and a pot was served, and none of his wife and children ran away.
Sun Degong has now been escorted by Mao Wenlong to Beijing to report his merits, and Mao Wenlong sent a letter to inquire about the battle situation of Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong's two divisions on the western front, so as to prepare for the next battle situation.
"Hahaha! Rejoice! Sun Degong of the dog day, this old dog also has today! It's really a cycle of heavenly principles, and retribution is not happy! ”
Chen Zhong couldn't help laughing, it was extremely enjoyable.
Li Yuanqing felt a little apprehensive in his heart.
At the beginning, if it weren't for Sun Degong's soldiers, he probably wouldn't have reached his current level for a while.
When he was persuaded to surrender last time, Li Yuanqing also felt that Sun Degong was not happy in Houjin.
It's just that although he sympathizes with him in his heart, the general trend is like this, and the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Guangning and Shaling are here, Li Yuanqing may mourn for him, but he will never excuse him.
After being happy, Li Yuanqing calmed down.
Zhang Pan's matter is a hurdle that can't be bypassed after all.
Chen Zhong also realized this problem at this time, put away his smile, patted Li Yuanqing's shoulder vigorously and said, "Yuanqing, the handsome man is far-sighted and understands the righteousness, he will not blame you." ”
Li Yuanqing let out a long breath of turbidity, "Hopefully." If the commander really wants to punish me, I will gladly accept it. After all, I am indeed responsible for Zhang Pan's death. Big brother, let's first summarize the battle report of southern Liaoning to the marshal as soon as possible. ”
Chen Zhong nodded, but he made up his mind in his heart, he had to write a letter to Mao Wenlong in person to explain Zhang Pan's matter clearly.
…………
When the two of them returned to the big tent, it was already dark.
The master who recruited Chen Zhong recorded that Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong carefully summarized the details of the battles in southern Liaoning during these days, and at the same time informed Mao Wenlong that the main force of Houjin in southern Liaoning might have withdrawn.
At this time, it was rainy and rainy, and the Houjin army walked by land, although there were war horses to help, but the land was muddy, and the speed must not be fast, and the messenger on Li Yuanqing's side went directly to Nanxinkou, and went to Yizhou by sea and speedboat, which was definitely faster than Huang Taiji's side.
It can be guaranteed that Mao Wenlong's headquarters received this news before the main force of Houjin rushed to Yizhou.
After doing this, Li Yuanqing said: "Big brother, the two prison lords, you can send someone to inform you." Now that the matter has not been decided, tell them this meaning first, and when it is confirmed tomorrow, we will discuss the matter of retribution. ”
Looking at Li Yuanqing's tired face, Chen Zhong nodded hurriedly and said, "Yuanqing, don't worry." You go back and rest first, and I'll take care of these trivial matters. ”
Li Yuanqing shook Chen Zhong's hand heavily, and then returned to his big tent.
To this extent, Li Yuanqing can't help but think about a back road.
Zhang Pan is Mao Wenlong's descendant, and he is deeply trusted by Mao Wenlong, he died under Li Yuanqing's nose, no matter what, it is not a good thing for Li Yuanqing.
Although Li Yuanqing was under the protection of Mao Wenlong at this time, in fact, after several years of development, the Changsheng Camp has become stronger and stronger, and it is not impossible to become independent.
It's just that Li Yuanqing is not willing to take this step until the last step, but the so-called 'villain first, then gentleman', take precautions, but he does not dare to slack off.
After all, he has long ceased to be alone.
In every move, tens of thousands of living beings have been implicated.
…………
At noon the next day, the sky had already cleared, and the warm sunlight was evenly spread on the ground, as if to announce that the hot summer was coming.
Early in the morning, hundreds of sentry riders had already dispersed in the direction of the Houjin camp, and before noon, news came back from there.
Just like the previous information, the main force of the Houjin army has been withdrawn, and the last broken rear troops have retreated to twelve or thirteen miles northeast of Fuzhou.
The Tartars are really retired.
For a time, the people in Fuzhou City were inspired, and the cheers shook the sky.
The defense of Fuzhou, which lasted for more than two months, finally ended with a great victory for the Ming army, and the sorrow of the Houjin army retreated, ending a perfect prelude.
In this battle, the Ming army did not have too many casualties, but captured nearly 5,000 Tartar heads, captured He Heli, the auxiliary minister of the Later Jin Dynasty, and successfully conquered and held the city of Fuzhou.
If you want to find an imperfect point in it, it is to die in battle.
With such a big victory, Li Yuanqing certainly would not let go of this great opportunity to buy people's hearts and gather popularity, and immediately ordered pigs and sheep to be slaughtered in the city to celebrate this big victory.
For a time, the city of Fuzhou completely became a sea of joy for the Ming army.
But the soldiers and auxiliaries went to celebrate, and at this time, Li Yuanqing, Chen Zhong, Wei Liang, and Zhang Qiliang gathered together in Li Yuanqing's big tent to discuss the most important meritorious affairs.
For Li Yuanqing, in Zhang Pan's affairs and in some other trivial affairs, he can open one eye and close one eye, how to go smoothly, how to worry, how to come.
But because of Zhang Pan's death, Li Yuanqing attached great importance to this retribution, and directly let everyone come to his big tent.
Wei Liang and Zhang Qiliang knew the news last night, and they had already made careful preparations.
Wei Liang held a booklet, which he wrote out in a hurry last night, and read it out with a smile: "General Li, General Chen, Gonggong Zhang, in this battle, my two departments in southern Liaoning, through several battles before and after, three major battles, a total of 4972 Tartar heads. Among them, the real slave is 1321 level, the northern captives are 982 level, and the armored man is 319 level. After being captured, Kim Auxiliary Minister He Heli. There is also Niu Lu Zhangjing's first level 3, Daizi's level 34, and the leader is ......"
Wei Liang had indeed made careful preparations, and the numbers were accurate to the extreme.
As he spoke, on the side, Zhang Qiliang also took two scribes to calculate beside him, for fear of making a mistake by one level.
After a long time, Wei Liang finished reading it, and couldn't help but be overjoyed: "General Li, General Chen, Gonggong Zhang, this, this is really the most brilliant victory of my Ming Dynasty in decades!" Hahaha! ”
His old face was already smiling, and the folds that were smoked by the smell of feces seemed to have disappeared in an instant at this moment.
Zhang Qiliang hurriedly smiled: "It's extreme, it's extreme!" If the emperor gets this report, he will definitely be happy! This all depends on General Li and General Chen, who work tirelessly, are loyal to national affairs, and take the lead! ”
Zhang Qiliang said, looking at Li Yuanqing with a smile, his voice trembling slightly.
He is clear and clear, and how much benefit he can share in this battle depends on Li Yuanqing's words.
Chen Zhong was also in an extremely happy mood.
Of course, he understood what Zhang Qiliang meant.
It's just that he and Li Yuanqing are brothers, and they have long been connected by flesh and blood, and this battle is mainly based on Li Yuanqing's Changsheng Battalion, and most of the achievements are made by the sons and daughters of the Changsheng Camp.
Chen Zhong knew very well that his brother Li Yuanqing would never treat him badly.
Facing Zhang Qiliang's eyes and motioning him to speak several times, Chen Zhong ignored it, smiling and playing with the dagger in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.
Although Zhang Qiliang was in a hurry, he did not dare to persecute Chen Zhong.
At this time, this merit is reported, Chen Zhong must be Jian Zai's heart, how dare he provoke Chen Zhong?
The glory and wealth of the rest of his life are all hung on Chen Zhong.
Chen Zhong didn't speak, Li Yuanqing didn't speak, Zhang Qiliang didn't dare to speak, Wei Liang couldn't sing a one-man show, he looked at Li Yuanqing busily, laughed and flattered: "General Li, look, this, the results are almost out, how should we distribute them?" ”
Li Yuanqing smiled faintly, glanced at a few people, but said, "The assigned matter, don't be in a hurry at this time." Let's take a look at the casualties of our two sons first. ”
Li Yuanqing said, as soon as he stretched out his hand, next to him, Huang Guoshan hurriedly handed the booklet that had been prepared to Li Yuanqing.
