Chapter 55 The hero of the country [for the small flying carpet

The impact and fluctuations caused by Jianlu's invasion of the Ming Dynasty were unimaginable. The closer one got to the place where the battle was to take place, the more intense the panic among people became.

Public opinion is a terrible thing and can even lead to extreme situations.

"Superintendent, there's a fight over in Zunhua, are we just going to watch it?" Man Gui widened his eyes, waved his arms, and said in a deep voice to Sun Chengzong who was busy at the desk emotionally.

"So far, there has been no news from Shenjing. Even if, even if His Majesty has any good plans, you can't just watch it like this!"

"Mangui, what do you want to do?"

Sun Chengzong put down the document in his hand, raised his head, looked at Man Gui with bloodshot eyes, and said indifferently: "You led the vanguard of the Datong Division, with a total of more than two thousand cavalry, and just arrived in Jizhou today. The thing about lagging behind is at least

It will take another two days to reach Jizhou.

Okay, even if you don’t need to rest, what about the cavalry under your command?

I don’t need to explain what the consequences will be if we use a tired army to attack a strong one. You, a warrior who has been on the battlefield for a long time, should also know in your heart, right?"

"...Yes, the end is clear, but..."

Mangui stretched out his hand and pointed to the outside of the hall. He was a little excited and said with slightly opened eyes: "The Jianlu slaves have all reached the pass. Taiji, the leader of the Jianlu slaves, personally led the main force of the Jianlu troops to besiege Zunhua.

Even if Yuan Chonghuan knew the situation of the battle in advance and wanted to mobilize reinforcements from Guan Jinning's front line, I'm afraid it would delay a lot of time.

It's now the second day of November. According to the general's calculation, it's damn early for Yuan Chonghuan to be out of seclusion on the fifth day of the lunar month. In this situation, if Zunhua doesn't have any foreign aid, it will definitely depend on Jianlu's strength.

This city will be captured.

Supervisor, you have always been in Liaodong and know the power of Jianlu and the situation before Liao. The general is really anxious! Can you understand the mood of the general?!

Even if we don't rush to assist Zunhua, it will be no problem to fight against the right-wing division of Jianlu. At this time, they are still stationed in Da'ankou area with a lot of troops!

If you can inflict pain on the right wing of Jianlu, it will definitely affect the war situation in Zunhua. Zunhua must not be lost under any circumstances, otherwise the Santun Camp will definitely not be protected!"

Sun Chengzong frowned and looked solemn. Deep down he agreed with what Man Gui said, but the top priority right now was to ensure Jizhou's frontline defense.

After being ordered to go out to control Jizhou and learn about the situation in detail, Sun Chengzong was under great pressure. There were very few soldiers capable of fighting. Stabilizing the advance defense headed by Jizhou was not guaranteed.

"no!"

Regarding this request from his former subordinate, Sun Chengzong thought over and over again and said categorically: "Before leaving Jizhou, His Majesty emphasized it again and again.

There was no military base to issue an edict, even if Zunhua and Santunying were all captured by Jianlu, all armies could not advance rashly.

Mangui, I understand your feelings, but you must be clear about this battle. I, the Ming Dynasty, cannot afford to lose, and we cannot afford to lose. The gains and losses of one city and one place must be given up when necessary.

You just came to Jizhou today, do you know the actual situation in Jizhou? Do you know the actual defense situation of the temporary avant-garde? There are really very few soldiers to fight!"

"..."

Man Gui's eyes flashed coldly, he clenched his fists subconsciously, gritted his steel teeth and said, "This is all because of that damn Yuan Chonghuan's touting of his so-called five years of Ping Liao.

In order to win the support of the imperial court for this bullshit good strategy, we propose to reduce the defense of Jimiyong Sanxie and reduce troops and pay. If there was no farce like this, why would our Ming Dynasty be like this!"

"Mangui, I can understand your current mood."

Sun Chengzong stood up, walked slowly towards Mangui, and said seriously: "I have also heard about the conflicts between you and Yuan Chonghuan.

But now that the country is in turmoil, I hope you can put it aside for the time being. The issue of Yuan Chonghuan will be dealt with by the imperial court and by your Majesty.

What you have to do now is to assist me in guarding the Jizhou front line, ensuring that the enemy troops are built, harassing the vanguard defense line, and resolutely driving them out!"

"Here!"

Although Man Gui was unhappy, she still answered with her fists clasped.

As the old boss who promoted him in the past, despite Man Gui's unruly temperament, he was still much restrained in front of Sun Chengzong, and he was willing to listen to what Sun Chengzong said.

As Sun Chengzong said just now, if it were someone else, especially Yuan Chonghuan, Mangui would have given up his choice long ago. This is also the reason why Emperor Chongzhen asked Sun Chengzong to sit in Jizhou and asked Mangui to assist.

"Report! Outside our Jizhou city, a group of soldiers and horses came from Shenjing. They called for brave guards to guard the camp. We have been specially ordered to prepare some water supplies in Jizhou."

A Han general in Feiyu uniform hurriedly ran in from outside the hall, cupped his fists and saluted Sun Chengzong.

"Um?"

Sun Chengzong frowned slightly, but secretly thought in his heart, why was the emperor's special Yongwei camp dispatched at this time? Could it be doing something?

Why didn't I receive an explicit edict from the Military Aircraft Department?

"Supervisor, where are the soldiers and horses from this Yongwei camp?" Mangui stepped forward in confusion and asked: "Why has the general never heard of it before..."

"This is your Majesty's special elite division." Sun Chengzong walked quickly out of the hall and said to Man Gui: "Let's go out of the city with me to find out the situation."

Seeing Sun Chengzong like this, Mangui had more doubts in his heart. Why did the elite division set up by the emperor come to Jizhou at this time?



"Eunuch Fang, are you okay?"

Zhou Yuji endured the soreness in his legs, looked at Fang Zhenghua, who was a little exhausted, and said, "Otherwise, you will stay in Jizhou to rest for a day, and then lead the team to Shimen Town?"

"Zhou Youyi, you underestimate our family too much."

Fang Zhenghua smiled, moved his swollen calves, and said, "As members of the Yongwei Battalion, how can we do such a special thing?

The current situation is so critical, our family cannot afford to be a coward. Compared with the brothers under our command, our treatment is much better."

"Um."

Zhou Yuji nodded and said: "If it weren't for the leggings prepared by Your Majesty, with such a marching speed, how many soldiers would have been left behind from Shenjing to Jizhou."

"That's strange to say."

Fang Zhenghua looked at the various units of the Yongwei Battalion resting in formation, frowned and said: "Zhou Youyi has been in the army for many years, and he doesn't know the miraculous effects of wearing leggings. Why does Your Majesty know this?"

"This general also has some doubts."
