The eighth day of the lunar month.
It's freezing cold.
"Da da da!!!" Long Qie, who was guarding Zhang Guang Fort, led a soldier from a hundred households and rode to the gate of Beishan Fort.
"Captain Long."
The Beishan Fort soldiers guarding the gate recognized Long Qie and quickly bent down to salute.
"Brothers." Long Qie returned the salute with clasped fists, and then asked most of the soldiers to stay outside the city. He led eleven soldiers into Beishan Fort and arrived at the hall of General Fu Han's mansion.
In the huge hall, there are four rows of Taishi chairs.
The civil servants sit on the right, and the generals sit on the left. When Long Qie entered the main room, he glanced at the generals and his eyes stayed on Feng Chong for a moment.
There are currently seven captains in Beishan Fort, one of whom joins the army and one of Qianhu who leads the army independently, a total of nine generals.
Feng Chong was the latest to arrive, but his temper was already famous in Beishan Fort.
This guy is not easy to get along with.
Long Qie came to his seat and sat down, and with his arrival, the civil and military personnel of Beishan Fort had also arrived.
Liu Zhixing called a soldier of Wu Nian to invite Wu Nian to come over.
"Da da da!"
Shortly after. Surrounded by a group of soldiers, Wu Nian stepped into the main room. He was wearing a winter war jacket and a steel sword on his waist. He was walking like a dragon and walking like a tiger, and he was very powerful.
"Everyone, you all already know the news that Xiong Wu from Shanhaiguan has sent troops. Now the city defense of Yingqing Mansion is empty. I discussed it with Liu Changshi and decided to send troops to attack Dingxian."
"Liu Wu, Tieniu. The two of you stay at Beishan Fort, and the rest of the generals will follow me to send troops tomorrow. Remember, this war is about surprise. No one is allowed to tell anyone, even if they are sleeping, they must keep their mouths shut. It's tight. If anyone leaks the information, I will kill him without mercy."
Wu Nian strode to the main seat and sat down. He looked at the civil and military officials and went straight to the point without any nonsense. At the end of the sentence, the tiger's eyes glared, showing a stern and ferocious look.
"yes."
Except that Liu Wu and Tieniu were a little reluctant when they got the task of staying behind. The other civil and military officials responded immediately.
"That's it. The generals go back to recuperate their strength. The civil servants arrange the logistics." Wu Nian's expression softened slightly, and after saying a few words, he strode out of the main room.
"yes."
Everyone responded again, then stood up and left with fists in their hands.
Granary officer Chen Ning followed everyone out of the main room, his eyes flickering, "So we are attacking Dingxian? Yes. Compared to Jiangxian and Yuanxian, Dingxian has a shorter city and a much smaller city. It also has a small population and the best defense. It’s weakness.”
"I have to send the news back to Zhang Wanhu quickly so that he can be on guard."
After Chen Ning made up his mind, he immediately returned to his office. As a senior official in the Fu Han General's Mansion, he was one of the few people who had an independent office.
"Sir." There were two waiters in green standing at the door. After seeing Chen Ning, they both bowed and saluted.
"Zhang Bin. Come in." Chen Ning fixed his eyes on one of the waiters in green and said casually.
"yes."
Zhang Bin responded and followed Chen Ning in.
After entering the office, Chen Ning immediately took out a piece of silk to write on. After finishing, he found an exquisite wooden box to put it in and handed it to Liu Bin.
Without saying a word, Liu Bin reached out and took the wooden box, then turned and left the office.
"Huh." Chen Ning exhaled and calmed down. As a craftsman, his situation is very dangerous.
The fewer people who know his identity, the better. So far, he has many people and cronies around him to help him work.
But the only person who really knows his identity is Zhang Bin.
This is the way to survive.
Chen Ning remembered that he had been lying in wait in Beishan Fort for such a long time and had conveyed a lot of information to Zhang Bu without being discovered. He couldn't help but feel proud again.
Be careful, discreet, and low-key.
You still have to work hard.
Thinking of this, Chen Ning immediately threw himself into the busy work, looking through the official documents on the desk one by one and processing them.
It was precisely because of his hard work that he was appreciated by Liu Zhixing. The higher the official position, the more confidential information he could obtain.
Early the next morning.
The people at Beishan Fort are ready. The men and horses of all the generals are waiting in the valley or on the road to set off.
Liu Wu and Tieniu's six thousand men and horses have been dispersed to guard the Nine Forts.
Only Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng's soldiers and horses lined up in the east of the city, waiting for Wu Nian's instructions.
The gate of Wu Mansion.
Wu Nian was wearing thick armor and a scarlet cloak tied behind him, standing facing the gate. The family members stood in front of the gate, wiping away tears.
Wu Nian's eyes fell on the bellies of Liu Xiang, Wang Ruyan, and Xiao Hong. It was already very obvious that they were pregnant. When the child is born, he may not be able to come back.
"Don't cry. Wait until I send someone back to take you to live in a big house in the county." Wu Nian smiled and laughed boldly. He turned around and clung to the saddle, climbed onto the horse vigorously, and held the rein tightly. After taking one last look at his family, he resolutely rode his horse and headed east of the city.
"Uncle. I wish you success." Zhang Zhen trotted to the street, raised his right hand and waved vigorously towards Wu Nian.
"I know. You are a man now. Protect your family." Wu Nian shouted without looking back.
"Don't worry, uncle. I'm at home." Zhang Zhen responded loudly.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!"
Liu Xiang, Wu and others also came to the street, wiping their tears and crying.
Although this is the norm for generals, their hearts are broken every time they see Wu Nian going on an expedition.
Wu Nian took a deep breath and left his family behind.
What follows is not the love between sons and daughters, but the fierce battle between them.
"Da da da!!!" Wu Nian, surrounded by his own soldiers, headed to the east of the city. The people crowded the streets, bent towards Wu Nian and lowered their heads.
I wish the general a successful victory.
Soon, Wu Nian arrived at the east of the city.
A tall wooden platform stood in front of the city gate. Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng led six thousand men and horses, arranged neatly.
Liu Zhixing and Li Yong stood on the left and right under the stage. After seeing Wu Nian, they bowed slightly and saluted.
Wu Nian nodded to them, then walked up to the wooden platform with his head held high. His eyes were extremely sharp as he glanced over the six thousand soldiers.
Three thousand households of heavily armored and heavy axe-soldiers.
Three thousand ordinary soldiers, plus five hundred divine arm bows, and five hundred auxiliary soldiers.
This is the magic weapon for victory and his capital for controlling Liaodong.
"Brothers. The Meng Yuan people came south and ruled us for two years. Two whole years."
"In the past two years, we Han people in Liaodong have been trampled under the feet of the Mongolian and Yuan people. Our women are rushing to be concubines for the Mongolian and Yuan nobles."
"Our farmers are handing over food to them."
"We've endured this long enough."
"Recover Liaodong and expel the Tartars. This is not empty talk. This time. I will lead you to occupy the city and revive the river and mountains."
"Fuck the Mengyuan people."
At the end of the sentence, veins popped up on Wu Nian's forehead, his face turned red, and he yelled with all his strength.
“Fuck the Mengyuan people!!!”
Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng led six thousand soldiers and horses, and they all roared angrily.
At this moment, the Liaodong tiger showed its fangs.
