At dawn, when the chill was at its strongest, a burst of noise woke up the entire camp. Tang Tong's eight thousand men and horses finally arrived after a day and night of rapid march.
The man was tired and the horse was exhausted, so he rested on the spot.
However, the Gongzi camp began to set up camp. The servants made food to feed the horses, and the eunuch army lined up for morning exercises.
Tang Tong, who came to the camp to see Chang Yu, was quickly attracted by the eunuchs who were training. The general who had been leading the army all his life had a very vicious vision. Whether a team can fight depends not only on military discipline but also on spirit.
But he never thought that he would see a group of eunuchs full of fighting spirit. When he got closer, he could feel a fierce murderous aura. This made him extremely surprised. He heard that the young eunuch took the lead in the battle of Taiyuan and even trained an army of eunuchs. , named Gongziying.
I couldn't help but look up at the big flag flying in the wind.
Chang Yu, who is dressed in single clothes, is having sex with Wuzhong.
It was said that it was a move, but in a blink of an eye, the fight started fiercely, with punches and kicks coming and shouts shaking the sky.
Tang Tong was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. He had heard for a long time that the young eunuch was invincible with his fists and kicks. It was true when he saw it today. His fists and kicks were as sharp and fierce as a meteor. But who was the strong man fighting him? Why did he seem to be the better one? , when he started, it was like thunder on dry land, or like a flash flood, destroying the dry land. Sometimes the river surged continuously, making the little eunuch panic.
What's more, the man was so aggressive that he kept saying "mother fucks father" all the time, which made the angry little eunuch gnash his teeth.
"Your mother, you are acting like a swindler again. If you dare to fight me, I will crush your bird's nest..." Wuzhong was locked on the ground by Chang Yu, his face rubbed against the ground. He was in great pain. If he moved even a little, he felt that his arm was about to be broken. .
"P, if you can't beat me, you will say that I am a swindler, and you dare to scold me. Believe it or not, I will crush your balls..." Chang Yu's mouth was bleeding, he was breathing heavily, and he was furious. Wuzhong was too fierce, and he really hit me while standing. But he is no match for playing with a knife!
Tang Tong was a bit clever, but he was full of foul talk, but he was still the calm and wise governor of Dongchang whom he had met at the Yamen. He was clearly a ruffian.
"The last general has met the Lord Governor." Tang Tong saluted forward, interrupting the exchange between the two. Chang Yu looked up at him, a little embarrassed, and stood up with a sneer: "General Tang is here, have you had breakfast? ".
Wuzhong got up and felt a sharp pain in his whole arm, as if it was broken. He couldn't help but curse again. Chang Yu turned back and glared at him. The guy immediately shut up and staggered towards his mount.
Breakfast in Gongziying was porridge. Chang Yu was treated slightly better and got a plate of pickles and invited Tang Tong to eat with him.
Tang Tong's eight thousand troops only had half of the cavalry, plus a little food and baggage, so the march was far less fast than Chang Yu's. From Changping to this point it was considered the ultimate.
Chang Yu allowed him to rest for half a day.
The two chatted a little more, and after breakfast, Gongziying set up camp and marched.
Tang Tong and several generals saw him off and stood by the road, watching the Gongzi Camp roll up dust and gradually go away, with solemn expressions on their faces.
"It is rumored that the eunuch of Dongchang is arrogant, ignorant, cruel and vicious, but it doesn't look like that." There are subordinates around him.
Tang Tong sneered: "You are no match for his boxing and kicking skills. Is this called uneducated? The attendants around him are brothers with him, and they can even scold his mother. Moreover, he rides all the way without riding in a car or a sedan chair. He is the same as his subordinates." Sweet and bitter, is this called arrogance and arrogance? As for cruelty and cruelty, who is right? The dignified butcher is not called for nothing."
Chang Yu was originally an unknown little eunuch. He became famous in the battle of Taiyuan. There are many legends about his bravery in the government and the public, such as leading the charge into the battle, going deep into the tiger's den to assassinate the bandit leader, challenging the generals of the bandits in single combat, etc... But what is spread among the army is On the other hand, he is ruthless and cruel, killing all thieves and soldiers. He has massacred more than 10,000 surrendered soldiers to serve as the capital...
Known among the military as the Butcher!
Butcher Chang didn't realize that he had such a prestigious reputation. He kept scolding Wuzhong for being useless while beating the horse and running wildly. He couldn't control the mare even after a night of gentleness, so he couldn't control it as he pleased.
From Jizhen to Zunhua in the east, to Lulong in the west (Santun Camp, the headquarters of Jizhen), to Shanhaiguan, we walked along the mountains. The mountain road was rugged but not difficult. After all, it was an official road and we had marched for many years.
There are few cottages in the mountains, and nine of the ten rooms are empty. Perhaps they went into the mountains to escape after hearing that a large army was passing by. This shows that the reputation of the Ming army is terrible.
There are many bandits in the mountains, and it is bitterly cold in the north. There is little work to make a living, but there are many military disasters. There are many people who occupy the mountains and become kings, and those who fall into the grass are bandits. Moreover, these mountain bandits are extremely brave. The mountain king in my eyes.
Ordinary officers and soldiers were robbed when they were told they were going to be robbed, and some officers and soldiers even took advantage of the situation and joined the gang.
There were less than a thousand people in Gongziying camp. After passing Ji Town and entering the mountains, we met several groups of bandits for dozens of miles. However, these bandits seemed to be a little discerning and did not take action. They did not provoke me, and Chang Yu was too lazy to go. Clean them up, say peace to each other, and say goodbye to you.
Another late night came, and Gongziying finally arrived at Santun Camp, the administrative center of Ji Town.
Santun Camp is connected to Tongji Town of Zunhua to Beijing in the west, Kuancheng to Chengde in the north, and Lulongtong Shanhaiguan in the east. The camp is three feet high and seven miles in circumference. There are five turrets, nine watchtowers and two water towers built on the city. The gate faces east and west, and there is a drum tower built in the center of the city. The town house is a small city within the city, and there is a pair of stone lions in front of the gate.
Although it was late at night, I checked the military talisman documents with the soldiers guarding the city, and Gongziying entered the city and entered the barracks. After all, I no longer had to drink the northwest wind in the wild.
Chang Yu originally wanted to stay in the military camp, but he couldn't stand the smell of the barracks. He wanted to take a bath, so he went to the town mansion, which is now Tang Tong's general military mansion.
The two stone lions in front of the house were very majestic, dancing with their teeth bared. Chang Yu stopped in front of them, closed his eyes and touched them again and again, wondering if Qi Shaobao often touched these stone lions when he was stationed here.
Wuzhong, holding a knife next to him, was puzzled by Chang Yu's behavior, and even felt a little perverted: "Supervisor, I need to find you a girl to play with. Oh, by the way, you eunuchs..."
"Shut up!" Chang Yu shouted angrily, showing no interest at all. He glared at Wuzhong: "Sooner or later I'll catch you!"
Wu Zhong suddenly felt a tightness in his crotch and couldn't help but look around, only to see Li Tiezhu and the other attendants staring at him angrily, wanting to pounce on him and cut him into pieces.
It was extremely late at night. After taking a hot bath, he was still not sleepy. Instead, his emotions became intense. Chang Yu got up and climbed to the attic of the town house. He looked down at the sentry in the house patrolling back and forth. He looked thoughtfully and looked up at the city. That encouragement made me feel excited.
The layout of the city is clear at a glance, with government buildings and private houses arranged in an orderly manner. 72 alleys divide the city into many squares. The city expansion river, fodder yard, martial arts hall and martial arts parade are all available...and these are all indispensable for the god of military commanders Qi Shaobao. credit.
Qi Shaobao was stationed in Ji Town for sixteen years, building cities, repairing walls, and training troops, so that he could have today's copper and iron walls.
I recall that he fought against the Japanese invaders from the north and Mongolia from the south, used troops like a god, and was unrivaled in the world in terms of force. He made guns and cannons... just like the sea-fixing needle of the Ming Dynasty. This is the god of war who stabilizes the country and stabilizes the country.
Chang Yu looked north at the night sky, where the stars were shining and the majestic mountains were hidden in it. There was a slight flicker of fire on the border city in the mountains. He suddenly felt heroic and shouted: "Long live the Ming Dynasty!"
"Who the hell is up late at night and yelling?" Then Wuzhong's shouting and cursing came from below.
Damn it, Chang Yu suppressed his anger, why did he find this bastard? Just when he was about to scold him, he suddenly heard Wuzhong shouting: "Who?" Then he yelled and cursed, mixed with the harsh sound of weapons clashing.
Grass! Chang Yu was startled, took out his dagger, turned around and ran straight down.
As soon as he arrived downstairs, he saw Wuzhong running in front of him with a knife. At the same time, Li Tiezhu and dozens of others were surrounding him, looking around cautiously.
"Run away" Wuzhong said and shuddered. The man looked like a ghost, erratic, missed a hit, and then ran away without a trace.
Chang Yu frowned: "I believe it now!"
Everyone nodded.
When did I provoke this elusive guy? He could disappear in front of everyone in Ji Town, but now he followed him into the city unknowingly. Is it possible... Chang Yu, who was lying on the bed, narrowed his eyes.
