After hearing this, everyone was also sighing and talking about each other. Some people felt that Zu Dashou was devoted to the court and devoted himself to the court, but he was ashamed of himself. Back then, he had a good reputation, but he abandoned his adopted son and all the generals. Die without
Gu also felt that Zu Dashou did it as a last resort, thinking that the green hills left behind would not be afraid of running out of firewood. At that time, it was a helpless act for the mantis to cut off its arm and the gecko to cut off its tail.
However, as the saying goes, it is difficult for an upright official to resolve family affairs. No one can clear up the sordid matters in the ancestral family. They can only consume, solve and redeem themselves. From this, everyone felt that it was not easy for Zu Dashou. When he was in court, he endured many doubts, cross-examination and slander. In the opposition, he guarded the border alone, trained troops and prepared for war, and confronted Dorgon, who was just around the corner. At home, he had many estrangements and conflicts.
to be processed.
It's not easy for this old man.
But it is true that this kind of thing cannot be mentioned on the table, but it will inevitably be used as a source of conversation after dinner, and most people don't know about it and dare not talk nonsense. Chang Yu and his group just chatted a few words on a whim today. After some emotion, it was getting late, and everyone was exhausted from fighting all day. They should have gone to rest, but at this time Chang Yu knocked on the table: "The wrangling is over, don't be busy sleeping, make a summary of today, and give it to tomorrow." Make a mental decision
"Suppose". Everyone nodded. A sudden fierce battle today will definitely lead to a lot of uncertainty tomorrow. The Tatars were already gathering troops and eager to try, but they suspended their attack because of a heavy snowfall. Because of today's intensification, tomorrow will not be safe. There is
Big move.
Discussing the military was not just a casual chat, so they called brothers Lu Dacheng and Zukefa over. Everyone gathered around the stove, holding tea, and summarized today's conflict first.
Chang Yu was involved in this conflict almost from beginning to end, but he was willing to listen to the opinions of his subordinates, so he remained silent. He hugged Mrs. Tang and huddled beside the stove, leaning against the wall. His eyes swept over everyone's faces: "Wang Zhengnan, what do you mean? explain".
Everyone also knew that Chang Yu was determined to cultivate Wang Zhengnan, and their eyes were focused on him.
Wang Zhengnan coughed lightly: "The Tatars set up a trap to ambush General Zu, which shows that they are not only fully prepared, but also took the initiative to attack, contrary to the passive situation in the past. This shows that the other party has great confidence."
Everyone nodded slightly, and Ma Ke raised his eyebrows and said: "The Tatars have high walls and thick walls, abundant troops and horses, and are close to Jinzhou. Their logistics and supplies are timely. Their troops can advance or retreat, attack or defend, and they have taken advantage of the right time and place. He is very confident."
"I think the idiot is just because he was beaten in a hurry earlier. He has been beaten by us for the past month and has already been beaten. He has the confidence to be a bird's egg!" Tu Yuan scolded, and everyone Laughter. Chang Yu waved his hand: "It is a fact that they were beaten anxiously, and it is also a fact that they have the advantage of soldiers and horses. We cannot underestimate them just because of the small gains in the previous games. After all, they were small fights before. They took advantage and couldn't hold on, so they ate a little." Can't even lose money
But once there is a big war, the winner or loser is the family fortune. Whoever loses will have to tighten their belts for three years, and they still can’t hold their head high! "
Tu Yuanshen agreed, and put away his previous contempt: "What the Governor said is that the Tatars who have been killed in the several battles today are all elites. This shows that it is inevitable to do what they want." "At this time, the Tatars are already sharpening their swords. The swords are unsheathed and the bows are unstrung. The snow has stopped today. If we don't guarantee, there will be a big move tomorrow, but our preparations are still slightly insufficient." Marco took a sip. Tea: "The fortifications are in great shape.
But the military strength is far from insufficient."
"The offense is not enough, but the defense is still enough," Wang Zhengnan took over.
Marco glanced at him: "Are you talking about the defensive fort or the trench defense line?"
Wang Zhengnan was suffocated and nodded slightly: "The fort is the last line of defense, but if the Tatars send troops, the trench defense line will be the first to bear the brunt. With our current strength, it will be very difficult to defend the trench!"
"It's not that it's quite strenuous, but it's simply impossible to defend against it. There's a vast expanse of plains all around and there's no danger to defend it. Just a trench and thousands of soldiers and horses can't stop the opponent's army." Ji Jike shook his head lightly.
Everyone looked at Chang Yu.
"Look what we do." Chang Yu pretended that it had nothing to do with him.
Ma Ke lowered his head and smiled, while Wang Zhengnan and others lowered their eyebrows.
"That's it?" Chang Yu curled his lips and snorted.
Everyone was blushing, but Ma Ke raised his head: "Don't forget our previous strategy against the enemy. It's not that we can't defend by relying on the city, but we just defend as soon as we come up. If we are too passive, we will be led away by the Tatars later." .
"Advance is the basis for retreat, attack is the basis for defense." Wang Zhengnan raised his head and said: "Strike first to be stronger, cross the trench to advance northward, if it fails, then retreat and defend Tashan Fort with the trench as a line!"
"The Tatars are sharpening their swords and their eyes are shining. With our small strength, even if we strike first, we may not be able to take advantage. At most, in terms of momentum, if it looks better on the scene, they will eventually be beaten back." Ji Jike smiled bitterly Shake his head.
Tu Yuan was anxious: "Old Ji, what's wrong with you today? You actually make others more prestige. You... you affect morale and it's a big taboo!" "But General Ji is telling the truth." Marco smiled lightly: "With us At this time, even if we attack first, we will not be able to gain advantage, but it can disrupt the enemy's rhythm and deployment, and it can also win time for our reinforcements.
between! The most important thing is that whether we are advancing or retreating, the rhythm is controlled by ourselves. As long as we are not passively led or pressed, everything is possible."
"Mr. Ma is right, rhythm is very important." Chang Yu nodded.
"When will the reinforcements arrive? It's been a grind for several days." Tu Yuan impatiently turned his head and looked at the two Zukofa brothers. The problem was that the two brothers didn't know either, and looked slightly embarrassed.
"It's child's play to send out the army. We have to be fully prepared before we can send out the troops. But it should be soon. If the weather is clear tomorrow, it should be here the day after tomorrow at the earliest!" Chang Yu spoke up to relieve the siege.
"What if the Tatars send out troops tomorrow?" Tu Yuan asked again. "Then do it, let's kill Gouri first to dampen Gouri's spirit." Ji Jike slapped the table, and Tu Yuan stood up suddenly after hearing this: "It's just what I want, what the fuck is saying is human language , look at your bitch just now, you responded with
I'm scared for you! "
"When have you ever seen me give in?" Ji Jike chuckled.
"That's true," Tu Yuan chuckled.
"The good ones don't come, and the ones who come are not good. If the Tatars don't come tomorrow, that's it. If they come, it will be a stormy sea, and there will be a fierce battle!" Chang Yu straightened up: "Everyone, are you ready?"
"Today's killing is not fun. If tomorrow comes tomorrow, I will seize the Tatar flag!" Tu Yuan was so proud that Chang Yu praised him: "If you can seize the Tatar flag, I will protect you." Knighted!"
"The young monk doesn't want a title, the young monk only wants a first meritorious service..." At this moment, someone shouted outside the door, and then Fan Monk opened the door and tried to enter, but was dragged out by Kuang Ren in an instant.
Everyone in the room was speechless, and Tu Yuan looked puzzled: "What kind of first achievement does this guy want to achieve?"
"It seems that I came out today carrying General Zu on my back," Ji Ji said with a smile.
Tu Yuan took a sip: "If this could be considered his first contribution, I would have been crowned king by now." Outside the door, Kuang Ren, Wang Fuchen, Duoji, and Wumu Shan were on duty. With their status, they were Those who were not qualified to enter the house listened to the conversation outside the door. As he listened and heard about the first meritorious service, Monk Fan couldn't help it and shouted.
As soon as he got inside, he was pulled back by Kuang Ren: "What the hell are you yelling about? You know what a first meritorious service is!" "The first meritorious service is the greatest military merit, as the governor said, I will be credited with saving General Zu..." Duoji was sitting in the snow nest and was about to yell again. Wang Fuchen rushed over and covered his mouth, while Wu Mushan dragged his legs, almost
A group of people dragged him to the next room: "How dare you take the first credit for just carrying someone on your back? Where do you let those who climb first and capture the flag go?"
"What, what, what, what?" Fan Monk tried his best to break away from the others and said, "Master Monk carried a general on his back. Isn't that considered the first achievement? What did you say about landing first?" "Of course it can't be counted." Kuang Ren said with a stern face: "The four major military merits are killing generals, capturing flags, trapping formations, and ascending first. Among them, ascending first is the leader! Although you came out with General Zu on your back, you are nothing compared to these." Ah, unless you are carrying the emperor
Or perhaps the ability of the governor is considered "". The beheading means killing the enemy general in front of the battle, the flag capture means seizing the opponent's flag in the formation, and the trapping is the vanguard death squad. The first to kill the enemy or break the enemy's formation, this is the first to ascend, If you are the first to attack the city, do you think you are carrying it?
Can an individual compare with it?" Wang Fuchen looked contemptuous.
After hearing this, Monk Fan took a breath of air: "Good guy, this, this, can you still survive after taking these four military merits?"
"Hmph, just because you narrowly escaped death, you are called the four first meritorious deeds! If you achieve one of the four meritorious deeds, you can be crowned a king or a marquis!" Kuang Ren curled his lips and said, "You were the only one who had the nerve to yell just now, bah, I'm even ashamed of you." The panic."
"Is there really anyone who survives?" Monk Fan was stunned. He participated in the battle in Xingshan today and saw the brutality of the battlefield. He knew how difficult these military achievements were! "Of course there is. Have you heard of the Three Kingdoms? I guess you haven't heard of it either." Wang Fuchen said eloquently: "The fierce general Lu Bu of the Three Kingdoms had a subordinate named Gao Shun. This Gao Shun had a trap, and he was the most famous. He was a great general who crippled Guan Erye and Zhang Fei in the Battle of Xiaopei. Liu Xuande was defeated and even gave his wife to Gao Shun. In addition, Guan Erye, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, and Cao Ren were all Among the generals trapped in the battle, as for the first to ascend, among Cao Cao’s five good generals
Yue Jin, attacked Lu Bu and Puyang, Zhang Chao and Yongqiu, etc., all of them were the first to ascend and were granted the title of Marquis of Guangchang! There is also Huang Zhong, who captured Chen first, and Yizhou is scheduled to be appointed as the general against the captives..."
Good guy, several people were dumbfounded after hearing Wang Fuchen's words. Kuang Ren swallowed his saliva and said, "I can't tell. You know so much. You don't want to take the exam for the number one scholar."
Wang Fuchen scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I like to read and hear books. I just listen to them. In terms of extensive knowledge, I am far behind Brother Kuang." "Don't put a high hat on me. I know very little, but I have heard something from Lord Du Gong. He said that being the first to climb has the highest risk, but the reward is the highest. As long as you survive, in addition to giving money, you will also be given jobs by senior officials, and you may even be granted a title. , just imagine the charge
At that time, the atmosphere was so intense that it was impossible not to rush. If you didn't run, you would be hacked to death. If you ran slowly, you would be trampled to death. It was better to give it a try! "
"Yes, the risks are great, but the rewards are also great!" Wu Mushan also followed suit. Kuang Ren glanced at him and then said: "I heard from Lord Du Gong that at the beginning of Liu Bang's uprising, Zhou Bo was the first to seize Xiayi and ascend the city, and got the title of the fifth official, and so was Fan Kuai, who ate raw meat. Be the first to book frequent visitors
. And I heard that Zhang Juzheng, the former chief minister of this dynasty, his ancestor was a small soldier, and he was able to seal thousands of households by virtue of being the first to ascend the throne! ""Damn it, what our ancestors said is true. Wealth can be obtained in danger." Wang Fuchen licked his lips and said: "We soldiers don't know a single Chinese character. If we want to get promoted and make a fortune, we can only rely on military merit. The so-called times make heroes. Nowadays, there are Let's fight
Only then will we have more opportunities. If I don't guarantee that I will get a first achievement that day, not to mention making a king or a marquis, becoming a general will be regarded as smoke in the ancestral grave! "
Wu Mushan's eyes also gleamed, and he held it in for a long time before saying: "Me too."
"Master Monk doesn't want to be an official and he can't be that thing, so he just wants to get his first merit and go back to take revenge!" Duoji clenched his fists with a sad and angry expression: "Kill all those enemies!"
Kuang Ren patted him on the shoulder: "Everyone thinks about the four major military achievements. This thing depends on fate. If you are lucky enough to take it, you have to be lucky enough to enjoy it."
"It's as if you don't want to," Wang Fuchen curled his lips.
Kuang Ren laughed loudly: "I think about it, of course I do, but I have an ordinary mind. I'm lucky to get it, but it won't kill me." Moreover, Wang Fuchen looked disdainful: "You are the commander of the personal guard, and you are holding your thigh with the Governor. You have a more stable backing than being a general or being awarded a title. Many people are envious of you. Leave it to me. I'm just natural. Don't talk while standing
Back pain”.
Kuang Ren smiled and said nothing, and Wu Mushan exhaled and said, "I just heard someone say that there might be a fierce battle tomorrow. If we don't keep it together tomorrow, I will kill an enemy general and make him a marquis."
"Then when you become a marquis, don't forget to treat me to a wedding drink," Wang Fuchen joked, Wu Mushan waved his hand: "It's small things, enough!"
"If there is a war tomorrow, Master Seng will join us!" Duoji gritted his teeth and said, "But Master Seng has to get some armor. That thing can save his life." "That thing is so easy to do. You see, my two brothers are only regular A. If you really want to save your life, you have to do something like General Tu, General Ji. Hey, Boss Kuang's one will work too." Wang Fuchen pointed at Kuang Ren. , Fanseng took one look and shook his head.
Shaking his head: "Master Seng likes Mr. Ma's appearance!"
Grass! Kuang Ren and the three of them said in unison: "If you have the vision, go ahead and do it. What are you going to do? Do you consider Mr. Ma as your godfather?"
Monk Fan scratched his head in embarrassment: "Master Monk originally planned to steal it, but Mr. Ma kept wearing it. Hey, why are you still wearing it when you are in the fort? Isn't it heavy and isn't it cold?"
"You know nothing," Kuang Ren said angrily: "This is wartime, and conflicts can break out anytime and anywhere. It is common sense that horses should not take off their saddles and soldiers should not take off their armor!" "Why are you telling him this? He knows this." "Niao, I guess all I can think about is stealing the armor of General Ma." Wang Fuchen shook his head and sighed, staring at Fan Monk and said: "After a fight, I'll give you a piece of advice. You steal other people's or steal something else."
I'll give you a few beatings at most. If you dare to steal Commander Ma's armor...then my brothers may personally give you a ride."
"Where are you sending Mr. Seng?" Duoji didn't react for a moment, with a blank look on his face. Kuang Ren kicked him directly: "Who are they giving to Tang Miao? There's one Mr. Seng at a time, so I don't need to take care of him!" Fan Seng was After kicking a dog, he immediately became angry. He stood up and was about to fight. Wang Fuchen and Wu Mushan went up and suppressed him: "I've given you face, don't you... dare to grin in front of me, brother Kuang..."
