Dragon King Temple, the camp of the Prince Taibao, Zuo Dudu, and Qi Jiguang, the chief military officer of Jizhen.
Qi Jiguang, dressed in military uniform, sat in the tent with his eyes closed. His subordinates lined up in two rows, but strangely no one spoke. Except for Qi Jiguang, everyone was staring at the hourglass on the side.
Suddenly, Wu Weizhong said: "Commander, the second quarter of Yin Shi has arrived."
Qi Jiguang slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the hourglass, and said calmly: "Li Rusong should be almost at Harashen, Li Yincheng, Li Chengliang, and Haoyincheng should also have detoured to Xingzhong, blocking the way from Subang Hainan to Harashen. , now it depends on what results the father and son will achieve."
"What about us?" Wu Weizhong was stunned for a moment: "Are we going to watch the show at the Dragon King Temple?"
Qi Jiguang sighed and said, "I was supposed to watch the show, but" he waved his hand, stood up, his momentum suddenly changed, and said solemnly, "break camp and head northwest towards Tangtu. When we reach Qinglong River, we will turn around again." Heading north, let’s go to Daning.”
The generals responded to the order without saying a word. Wu Weizhong then asked: "Commander, it's a bit far for us to go to Da Ning. I'm afraid Chang'ang will know the news in advance and run away."
"Of course he will run." Qi Jiguang said calmly: "The intention of the emperor and Gao Shizhong is to let Chang Ang run to find Tumen and affect Tumen's mood."
Wu Weizhong was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly said: "We are working so hard just to influence the mood of the Tumen?"
"Of course." Qi Jiguang nodded.
"Why is that?" Wu Weizhong said with a lawsuit on his forehead.
"Because it's not our job to defeat them, it's Hannaji and Chatterji's business. We don't need to waste our troops. Our job is to create conditions for Hannaji, Chaterji and others to defeat Tumen. .”
"Oh, what about Li Yincheng and his son?" Wu Weizhong asked again.
Qi Jiguang said: "They don't have a clear goal. Gao Shizhong just asked them to hold Su Bahai and Dong Fox back. But based on my understanding of their father and son, I'm afraid they will want to give them a severe beating this time."
"How did the commander guess it?"
Qi Jiguang smiled and said: "Because this is the first time that Gao Shizhong has asked them to do something. What a holy family member Gao Shizhong is. A smart person like Li Yincheng, wouldn't he know? Would he not work hard?"
"It turns out that according to Li Yincheng's style, it seems that he is going to be really cruel this time." Wu Weizhong said, and frowned: "But it seems that the troops he brought are not enough?"
Qi Jiguang shook his head and said: "He only brought more than 10,000 people out. Could it be that he really only used more than 10,000 people? Even though Li Rusong is not with him, can't Li Rubai, Li Rumei and others be able to mobilize the troops? It's nothing more than playing tricks. It's just a plank road to cross Chencang secretly, but it's enough to trick him and defeat him quickly."
Qi Jin, the nephew of Qi Jiguang clan who was only fifteen years old, asked: "Commander, there is something I can't figure out despite my humble position."
Qi Jiguang's military regulations were very strict. Even if Qi Jin was his nephew, he had to be called Marshal in the army, claiming a humble position.
But after all, he was his nephew who was being taught by his side. Qi Jiguang was still willing to give more advice to the younger generation. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "Ask."
Qi Jin then asked: "Although Li Rusong is the son of Duke Li Yincheng, his current identity is the right deputy general of the Shenji Camp. Gao Shizhong did not seem to have designated him to fight Dong Fox at first, but the emperor sent him here. , do you think the Emperor is a little biased in this matter?"
Qi Jiguang immediately gave him a serious look: "The emperor used him to fight this battle because he considered two points: first, he joined the army with his father when he was young, and is familiar with Duoyan and Chahar; second, this battle requires him to fight with The Liaodong Army cooperates, but no one can cooperate as well as him. What is the emperor's partiality? This time, I will forgive you for being young and ignorant. If you dare to do it again next time, I will punish you severely!"
Qi Jin shrank his neck and did not dare to speak anymore.
In fact, all the generals under Qi Jiguang had this idea, but they were not named Qi after all, so they encouraged Qi Jin to ask, but Qi Jin also received a scolding.
Wu Weizhong hurriedly said: "Commander, there is no need to be angry."
"Should I be angry with you?" Qi Jiguang glanced at him.
Wu Weizhong coughed dryly and retreated angrily, not daring to say a word.
Qi Jiguang then ordered again: "Okay, don't be stunned, break camp immediately."
However, even though he explained to Qi Jin like that, he actually knew in his heart that this was not the case, because according to Gao Pragmatic's previous arrangement, his and Li Rusong's jobs should be reversed. The emperor did seem to have a favor for Li Rusong, but he didn't know why. Why.
Li Rusong is thirty-two years old this year. He is not particularly young. He is about the same age as Ma Gui, but he looks more energetic than Ma Gui.
Of course, it can also be said that Ma Gui seems more calm compared to him.
In the words of Gao Pragmatic when he introduced the current "famous generals" of the Ming Dynasty to Zhu Yijun, Li Rusong is "as fast as the wind", Ma Gui is "as fast as the forest", Liu Wei is "aggressive as fire", and now the only thing missing is "immovable" Like a mountain".
In fact, there is someone who is immobile as a mountain, but Gao Qingshi feels that now is not the time to talk about him.
Li Rusong was very tall, with a body as thick as a city gate, and the typical appearance of a giant man holding his head high, so that the already powerful BMW under his crotch seemed a bit dwarfed.
He is riding a horse, but it does not mean that he is leading cavalry. In fact, he is not leading the Liaodong Army this time, but the 5,000 squadron troops from the Beijing Camp and the 5,000 border troops trained by Jizhen, a total of 10,000 People, but the good news is that these two teams are from Shaanxi.
"Has Ye Bushou found anything?" Li Rusong suddenly asked.
"Back to the eldest young master, no." The person who answered him called him the eldest young master. He was obviously a servant of the Li family.
Li Rusong looked calm and nodded: "No discovery is the best discovery. This place is only more than ten miles away from Dong Fox's old camp in Harashen. There may be Dong Fox's scouting horses at any time. Don't be careless. Especially when we lead this time It’s the Shaanxi soldiers, not our Liaodong cavalry. If they are discovered, it’s hard to say whether they will be able to gain military exploits.”
"Don't worry, young master, the younger ones will all be spared." The Li family's servant seemed to have a relatively high status, and he still had a smile on his face when he answered Li Rusong.
Li Rusong nodded, turned around and looked at the Shaanxi soldiers, and said, "Jizhen really has a good way of training soldiers."
Those servants were used to watching this. They must be the Shaanxi soldiers who had been trained in Jizhen and followed closely without saying a word, while the Shaanxi soldiers from the Beijing camp were complaining and making noisy noises.
However, they still echoed: "Qi Nantang's military discipline is very strict. There is no semicolon in the world, so naturally there is a way."
The word "ye" is used very mysteriously. It means that it is not only the Qi Jiajun who "has a way", but the Li Jiajun is not far behind either.
Of course, in terms of military discipline alone, the Li family's Liaodong cavalry can't keep up with the soldiers led by Qi Jiguang, but in terms of combat bravery, the Li family's army at this time is really worthy of it, provided that the rewards are in place.
After walking for a while, Ye Bu took the report and said that he had found Harashen's sentinel. After Li Rusong asked carefully, he felt a little relieved.
It turns out that the current location of Harashen is actually near Jianchang County, Huludao City in later generations. This place is not a serious grassland, but belongs to the hilly and mountainous areas of western Liaoning, and the Yanshan Mountains extend here.
Dong Fox used to be stationed further north, where the real pasture of their tribe was. The reason why he is stationed here now is mainly for the convenience of the tribute market.
The Duoyan tribe is also known as the Duoyan Three Guards. I will not go into details about their historical origins. I will only talk about their relationship with the Ming Dynasty. It is true that there is peace during times of war. Needless to say, during wars, the tribute market must be stopped, but during times of peace, it will usually be was allowed to pay tribute to the market.
A few years ago, Changtu was captured by Qi Jiguang. This man was Dong Huxu's brother and Changang's uncle. So the three Duoyan guards relented and swore to the Heavenly Alliance that they would follow the Ming Dynasty in the future. Therefore, the Ming Dynasty approved the mutual trade. Dong Huxu and Chang Ang's uncle Ang's stations are all much closer to the south.
The news that Li Rusong asked from Ye Bushou was that the sentinels sent by Dong Hushu basically did not go into the mountains, but only scouted along the mountains, valleys, basins, and plain terrain. Therefore, if you want to catch them off guard, there is still hope. There are ways. Just take the mountain road.
There may be something going on at home in the near future, so the daily updates will be reduced by about 10%. After the 2nd, there may be 34 days where the updates will be slightly reduced. The rest of the time, I should be able to maintain a basically normal amount of updates. I hope you all know and have a good time.
