Chapter 1 First Arrival at Liaodong Battlefield

"Zhizhizhi..."

In the sweltering barracks, the endless cries of cicadas on the tree trunks outside the courtyard wall were so noisy that people were distracted.

Zhu Yunfei, who was lying on the hospital bed, thought about it for several days and still didn't understand that his soul was reborn due to great luck.

Through the remaining memories of the original owner in his mind over the past two days, Zhu Yunfei basically confirmed that he had arrived at the late Ming and early Qing dynasties in history.

The current year is exactly the 14th year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, which is 1641 AD.

And the place where he is now is called Lianshan City.

Lianshan City is under the jurisdiction of Liaodong Dusi and is a military castle located within the Ningjin Defense Line of Daming Pass, between Ningyuan and Jinzhou.

Sixty miles to the north of Lianshan is Songshan City, which is also where Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiliao in the Ming Dynasty, travels.

Starting last year, Emperor Huangtaiji of the Later Jin Dynasty once again launched a military offensive against the Liaodong defense line of the Ming Dynasty in order to further expand his power.

The strategic purpose of the Qing army this time was to capture Jinzhou.

Jinzhou City is located at the first stop of the Guanning-Jin Defense Line in Liaodong. If Jinzhou is lost, it will inevitably affect the security of the entire Liaodong Defense Line.

For this reason, Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiliao, under the orders of the Ming Emperor, started from Shanhaiguan with an army of 135,000 infantry and horsemen starting in October last year.

After half a year of preparation and confrontation, seven camps were built in Songshan, Tashan and Xingshan.

They have been engaging in tentative battles with the Eight Banners of Hou Jin who besieged Jinzhou.

The original owner of Zhu Yunfei's body was a member of this Ming Dynasty army.

It is a coincidence that Zhu Yunfei before his rebirth actually had the same name as the owner of this body.

A few days ago, the original owner Zhu Yunfei was injured by Jiannu's red-coated cannon during a battle with Hou Jin's Jiannu army at the foot of Songshan City, and fell into a coma.

The unfortunate original owner finally died after being in a coma for two days.

Zhu Yunfei, the mercenary king from the future Blue Star, was also hit by a cannonball during a battle. He originally thought he would die.

But inexplicably, with the help of the original owner's body, he was reborn into the current era of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.

Thinking of the current situation, Zhu Yunfei tried hard to search his mind for his own historical memories.

However, although Zhu Yunfei was a soldier in his previous life, he was not a history buff.

Regarding the current battle, which took place in the late Ming Dynasty, he tried his best, but he had no memory at all.

On the contrary, there are several celebrities on this battlefield, and he really has some influence.

These people are Hong Chengchou, Wu Sangui, Huang Taiji and Dorgon.

The reason why I remember these four names must be attributed to the film and television dramas in my previous life.

Thinking of the names of Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui, Zhu Yunfei was stunned for a moment.

Because Hong Chengchou is now the governor of Jiliao in the Ming Dynasty, and Wu Sangui is now the commander-in-chief of Ningyuan in the Ming Dynasty.

But in my memory, these two people were both Hou Jin, that is, important officials of the princes of the Qing Dynasty in history.

"Those two bitches from Male Gobi are really traitors to the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Yunfei's poor historical knowledge finally made him realize the seriousness of the problem.

"I remember, I remember." Zhu Yunfei banged his head and muttered to himself, finally remembering some historical memories.

That was Wu Sangui who rebelled against the Ming Dynasty by "turning his crown into a beauty in anger".

As for Hong Chengchou, although his memory was not deep, he still vaguely remembered that this old boy seemed to be captured by Hou Jin Jiannu. Because he was greedy for life and feared death, he chose to surrender to the Hou Jin Jiannu Tatars.

Thinking of these historical fragments, Zhu Yunfei's originally handsome face instantly turned into a bitter melon face.

"It's really fucked. The commander-in-chief of the Ming army was captured in the end. Isn't this battle bound to be lost?"

Thinking of this, Zhu Yunfei suddenly had many thoughts in his mind.

For example, pack your things immediately and run away.

Because he doesn't want to be a traitor.

Or write to the court and complain to the emperor that Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui are both traitors.



"No, no, I'm just a little boss. If I run away, I'm running away in the middle of the battle. Isn't that asking for death?"

Zhu Yunfei was not worried that he would not be able to escape. With his skills, it would be absolutely easy for him to escape back to the pass.

Moreover, he also guaranteed that the imperial court could do nothing to him. The reason was very simple. The current Ming Dynasty and the various chief ministers and provinces in the Central Plains had ceased to exist in name only.

But Zhu Yunfei couldn't run away, because the original owner Zhu Yunfei was a "person of status".

If a person of his status dares to escape, his family will be hurt.

Of course, his so-called status is not actually noble. First of all, he is the sixth-rank Qianzong of the Ming Army. This position belongs to a lower-level military attache in the Ming Army.

Secondly, he has a cousin who is now the commander-in-chief of Dongxie Town, Songshan, and his name is Cao Bianjiao.

In addition, in his hometown in Datong, the original owner Zhu Yunfei also had a large family of relatives, especially his mother. If he dared to deserter, according to Ming Dynasty, his family would be implicated.

Thinking of his cousin Cao Bianjiao, Zhu Yunfei couldn't help but feel moved in his heart and shouted quickly.

"Li Hu, Li Hu, where did you go?"

Speaking of which, in the past few days after Zhu Yunfei woke up, it was Li Hu who took care of him in front of and behind the horse.

Through the memory of the original owner in his mind, Zhu Yunfei knew that this Li Hu was a private soldier of the Cao family and was once a personal guard of his cousin Cao Wenzhao.

After Cao Wenzhao died in battle, Li Hu led a group of private soldiers and became Zhu Yunfei's private soldiers.

Because Cao Wenzhao had no heirs, and Cao Wenzhao had intended to adopt Zhu Yunfei as his adopted son.

Although the matter failed in the end, Cao Wenzhao still loved Zhu Yunfei very much during his lifetime, and he also made a will before his death in battle, asking Li Hu to protect Zhu Yunfei.

He also told Cao Bianjiao to take good care of Zhu Yunfei.

"Coming, coming..." Li Hu, who has a loud voice, is tall and strong, has a rough appearance, eyes like copper bells, and a beard on his face, giving him a strong and aggressive image.

"Sir, are you hungry?" Li Hu may not look like a rude man, but he is a conscientious person.

"Prepare a carriage for me. I'm going to Songshan to meet my cousin." Zhu Yunfei thought over and over again, and the best way to escape from the battlefield in Liaodong was to ask Cao Bianjiao to transfer him back to his hometown of Datong.

"Sir, your injury has not healed yet. It is not appropriate to travel far at this time." Li Hu looked at Zhu Yunfei and admonished him with an excuse.

"If you have any instructions, just write a letter and I will send one of my men to deliver it to General Cao."

"The injuries on my body are not serious." To prove that he was fine, Zhu Yunfei immediately stood up and sat up.

After he got off the bed, he moved his muscles quickly.

Speaking of his body, he is as strong as a calf due to his martial arts practice since childhood and his many years of fighting in the army.

Zhu Yunfei, who has a muscular body and a muscular body and is good at shooting, is more than seven feet tall, about 1.78 meters tall.

At only twenty-one years old, he has clear-cut features, a handsome face, sharp eyebrows, and a pair of deep and sharp eyes.

With this body, Zhu Yunfei was confident that if a tiger came, he could beat it down.

"But Commander-in-Chief Cao told you to recover from your injuries in Lianshan and then stay in Lianshan and obey General Zhang's orders."

Li Hu said with some embarrassment: "If you leave without authorization and go to Songshan, General Cao will definitely be unhappy."

"Sir, if something happens to you, why don't you write a letter first and I'll send someone to deliver it to General Cao?"

"Is this the case?" Zhu Yunfei frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while he said, "Forget it, bring me some clothes. I want to take a shower and change."

"Sir, wait a minute." Li Hu agreed, walked to the cabinet on the side, and brought Zhu Yunfei a change of short coat and long gown.

Due to the muggy weather, Zhu Yunfei had been lying on the hospital bed for the past few days. Although he was shirtless, his body was indeed filled with the stench of sweat.

Zhu Yunfei reached out to untie the hair on his head, smelled the pungent smell, and couldn't help but frown.

"Li Hu, isn't there any soap in the bath? It's almost going to stink if you don't wash it." Looking at the clothes and bath towels handed over by Li Hu, Zhu Yunfei turned over but found no soap.

"Sir, the soap powder we brought has been used up a long time ago. This is the front line now, and you can't buy it even if you have money. You'd better make do with it."

Li Hu thought Zhu Yunfei wanted saponin to wash his hair, so he had to say with a wry smile.

"Should I have someone boil a bucket of plant ash water and add a bucket of rice water to wash you with?"

"What the hell?" Zhu Yunfei was stunned for a moment before he realized that this was in ancient times. There must have been no shampoo, and there seemed to be no soap either.

But this long black hair has grown to the waist. This long hair is even blacker and slender than the little lady's hair.

If Zhu Yunfei hadn't known that there was a saying in ancient times that "the hair and skin of the body are influenced by the parents", he would have wanted to call Li Hu directly, bring scissors and cut off his long hair.

"Forget it, let's do as you say." But it was really uncomfortable to have such long hair without washing, so Zhu Yunfei had no choice but to compromise.

When he came to the bathhouse, Zhu Yunfei looked at the ink-like gray water of vegetation and the turbid rice water. He also had a bitter look on his face.

"Damn, this life is really unbearable." Zhu Yunfei complained secretly, but saw Li Hu on the side, rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward to say.

"Sir, let me help you wash your hair and rub your back."

"Get out of here, I'm not incompetent." Zhu Yunfei glared at the bearded Li Hu. Thinking of the scene of two grown men washing their hair and rubbing their backs, he felt a burning sensation in his eyes.

Seeing Zhu Yunfei's disgusted expression, Li Hu suddenly felt aggrieved and said.

"Sir, didn't I have a humble job in the past, washing your hair and rubbing your back?"

"Get out, do you hear me telling you to go out?"
