When Guo Ning said this, it was obvious that he was talking bullshit against bullshit.
Pu Xianwannu used his official position as the Xuanfu envoy of Liaodong to talk about things, and of course he was holding on to the situation in order to exchange benefits. By the way, Pu Suliemeng also made the situation of his own army less embarrassing.
And Guo Ning said that he was tired after fighting for a long time...
What a long fight! The messenger who came from Xianping Prefecture said that this man and Heshi Liehuanduan joined forces to capture the city. They took Xianping City in only half a night and killed all Pu Xianwannu's men!
As for what weapons, armor, equipment, and food need to be mobilized...
Ambassador Pu Xian is a man with big ideas. He has been operating in Xianping Prefecture for several years, constantly amassing food and military supplies. With only one arsenal and one grain depot in the east and south of the city, he can gather enough supplies for 30,000 troops to fight for a year! All those supplies are now in Guo Ning's hands!
Guo Ning just wasn't in a hurry or didn't want to rescue him.
Do you want Ambassador Pu Xian to persist for three days? Three days later, camera action?
Not to mention that Pu Xian Wan Nu's troops did not have enough food and water. At this time, Pu Xian Wan Nu's troops were only defending a few rolling hills, with no forts on them, and no natural dangers that could truly resist the army.
In these three days, Brother Yeluliu will definitely use all his strength to attack. All the Khitans under that guy had deep hatred against the Jurchens. The two armies fought fiercely for three days, and the casualties on both sides must have been extremely heavy. Corpses piled up like mountains!
After all, Pu Xian Wannu was at a disadvantage. If Guo Ning didn't come in three days, he would probably have to collect the corpse for Pu Xianxuan, with the head missing.
If one of Pu Xianwannu's adopted sons were here and heard Guo Ning talking like this, he would probably rush forward and fight with Guo Ning at the risk of his life.
But Pu Sulie only took a deep breath, bowed his head and said: "I understand, I will resign, and I will report back to my envoy."
After saying that, Pu Sulie suddenly stood up and went down to the city.
The knights who followed Pu Sulie from the city were all covered in blood and stained, and some of their horses were injured. Most of the spears and spears they used were broken, and the number of arrows was also small. Several of them only held daggers in their hands.
When Pu Sulie suddenly walked up to them, they looked expectantly. Pu Suliemeng only gave a few brief instructions and then got on his horse. Everyone did not waver and responded in unison, following closely behind.
Guo Ning and He Shi Liehuanduan stood side by side on the city, looking down. Seeing this situation, Heshi Liehuan Duan immediately moved forward.
Just after taking two steps, Guo Ning called Dong Jin: "Go and change their horses, and replenish their swords, guns, and arrows! If you have good leather armor, bring some as well. Go and come back quickly!"
Dong Jin responded.
Heshi Liehuan returned at the end of the city and watched Dong Jin running down the city. He directly took some horses, weapons and armor from the guards and delivered them to Pu Suliemeng.
These were extremely sophisticated equipment. Pu Suliemeng and his men knelt down and thanked them under the city, changed them on the spot, and then rode out of the city.
Watching the smoke and dust stirred up by the cavalry go away, Heshi Liehuan said in a deep voice: "There are also good men among Pu Xianwannu's subordinates. Pu Suliemeng once served in northern Xinjiang and has experienced many battles. Although he suffered a lot in his early years, Because of Pu Xianwannu's favor, he works for him, but he is famous for his bravery. Guo Jiedu, let's..."
Guo Ning nodded slightly: "So, they must be able to persist for a long time, until the second and third diners appear one after another. At that time, it is our chance to decide the situation!"
Heshi Liehuanduan stopped talking.
He sighed quietly. How could he not know what Guo Ning said? However, when things came to a close, seeing the elite Jurchens wiped out in one fell swoop, it was inevitable that he would become depressed.
On that day, Xianping Prefecture continued to reorganize the three armies and recruit surrendered soldiers. A series of preparations for war were carried out in an orderly manner.
To the north of Xianping Mansion, at the end of Huanglonggang, there are occasional fires that appear and disappear, tearing the night apart, and shouts of killing can be heard in the distance, like rolling thunder.
Every half an hour, the scouts turned back and reported: "The battle is in full swing."
The next morning, Pu Sulie suddenly arrived again.
When he turned back yesterday, all his cavalrymen had been replaced with brand-new armors, swords and guns. This time, half of the people who came with him seemed to have been replaced. Guo Ning scanned from top to bottom and saw that all of these people were still injured.
Pu Sulie was hit by an arrow in his leg and staggered when he dismounted. He held a machete in his hand, but the scabbard was nowhere to be found. He thought for a while, tied the handle of the knife with the reins, and hung it diagonally next to the saddle bridge.
When he walked in front of Guo Ning, there was a strong sour smell coming from more than ten steps away, which was the result of the mixture of sweat and blood.
Ordinary people would be overwhelmed by the smell and change their color and vomit on the spot. Guo Ning is a veteran on the battlefield and is used to smelling it. His expression did not change at all. Instead, he took two steps forward and cupped his hands: "General Pu Sulie, please sit down."
Pu Sulie bowed fiercely and presented the letter box: "Guo Jiedu, this is a letter written by my family's envoy."
Guo Ning opened the letter box and read it with He Shi Liehuan. Later, Li Ting came and asked, "What did this guy write?"
His identity and qualifications are sufficient to see any confidential documents, so no one cares about him.
After glancing twice, Li Ting raised his head and laughed, turned around and left.
The tone of this letter is much more polite than the last one, and the content roughly says:
The wars in recent years have been fought like this. I, Pu Xianwannu, regret deeply and feel that I am not the material to lead the army in battle. Therefore, I am willing to entrust the military affairs of Liaodong to He Shi Liehuanduan, and come forward to recommend He Shi Liehuanduan as the military envoy to the Northeast.
In addition, in order to thank Ding Haijun Guo Ning for his assistance, he will make arrangements to restore the Qunmu Station's establishment on Puyu Road, Huli Gai Road, Supin Road, and Helan Road, and ensure that the Qunmu Station's military and political affairs are in full compliance Everything is independent.
At the end of the letter, there was actually a paragraph written in blood. It was probably not Pu Xianwannu's own blood, but it looked shocking. The blood writing was crooked, but to sum up the meaning, it was nothing more than to say, for the sake of the Dajin court, I should help my brother.
Heshi Liehuanduan sighed.
Obviously, although Pu Xianwannu's attitude has softened, the price offered is not high. It can be seen that he still has some strength left to defend the mountain, at least not until the critical moment of life and death.
If Guo Ning's prediction was correct, although Pu Xianwannu and Brother Yeluliu were fighting on this table, there were other diners around the table. Every eater is waiting for others to consume and destroy him, turning him from a eater into a fat man, so he will definitely not show up easily until the end.
Still have to wait.
Guo Ning put away the letter and said politely: "Let He Shilie and I discuss it in detail. To be honest with General Pu Sulie, I always feel that the current war situation is a bit strange, so I have sent more troops to various places. Scouts. When these scouts come back, we will understand the situation and send troops immediately."
Pu Sulie suddenly stood up and saluted, turned around and left.
Heshi Liehuanduan couldn't help but said: "General Pu Sulie, why not take a rest in Xianping City? There are some old troops of Pu Xian's envoy in the city. I will recruit brave people and let them report back."
Pu Sulie was startled for a moment, then slowly said: "I'd better go."
The next day, the sound of killing was still loud in the north of Huanglonggang.
The scouts sent by Guo Ning turned back one after another, and they all said: "The two armies sacrificed their lives and blood flowed into rivers at the foot of the mountain. I have not seen such a fierce battle for a long time since the fight with the Mongolian army that day."
Pu Sulie Meng no longer appears.
In the early morning of the third day, he suddenly rushed to the gate of Xianping City.
There were only three cavalrymen following him. There were two arrows stuck in Pu Sulie's back. As he ran, he couldn't cut off the arrow shafts with his sword. The arrows trembled all the way, tearing open the skin and flesh at the wound. The skin and flesh were pale due to excessive blood loss.
This time he sent letters without a mailbox. It is estimated that Pu Xianwannu directly pulled a piece of white cloth to write, and after finishing writing, he put it in Pu Suliemeng's arms.
Guo Ning took the letter and glanced briefly, but he saw that Pu Suliemeng's left hand was missing two fingers and was wrapped randomly with coarse cloth.
The letter was also blood red.
The letter read:
The Khitan thieves surrounded the mountain for three days and attacked fiercely day and night. There were more than sixty fierce battles, large and small. The puppet king of Liao, Yelvliu Ge, played the drums in person. The puppet king of the county, Yelu Sibu, the puppet marshals, the slaves of the monk family, and Tonggu took turns in the battle, and arrows rained down like rain. Our garrison has less than a thousand men, and there is only one hilltop left to defend. I think that I, Pu Xianwannu, will be killed in an instant, which will cause the Khitan and Mongolia to gain momentum.
At this time, I was in tears as I started writing, but I could only remember two things.
Firstly, He Shilie is loyal, brave and good at fighting. He can succeed me as the Xuanfu envoy of Liaodong. At this time, I sincerely recommend him. All the subordinates of the Xuanfu Department in Xianping Prefecture should understand what I mean.
Of the two, Dingjun Guo Jiedu led his troops across the sea to come to our aid. He was so loyal and brave that I fell in love with him. It is a pity that the current situation is critical and I have no chance to follow Guo Jiedu's instructions. If the sky has eyes, I can safely worship in front of Guo Jiedu. I would like to regard Guo Jiedu as my adoptive father from now on.
When Guo Ning and He Shi Liehuan bowed their heads to read the letter, Li Ting came over to poke his head in as usual.
At this moment, he was holding a vat filled with ginseng, Ophiopogon japonicus and Schisandra chinensis found in Puxianwannu Mansion.
It is said that this earthwork can cure summer heat, consume qi and damage yin. After Li Ting got married, he took good care of himself.
With a mouthful of medicinal soup in his mouth, he saw Pu Xianwannu calling Guo Ning father with sincere words.
Li Ting couldn't hold it back and spurted out a mouthful of medicinal soup, pouring it into Guo Ning's neck.
