Chapter 245 Cao Yi’s misunderstanding

After Cao Yi read out the imperial edict, all the generals shouted long live. They were also very worried!

Lin Cunde pulled Cao Yi to sit down, took back the imperial edict, put it away, and then said to Cao Yi: "The imperial edict was given to me by His Majesty before I left the country, because at that time, the situation in Liaodong Town was not known yet, so Preparing for the worst, I have also written a memorial to His Majesty in the past few days, which also explains that General Cao and other generals have not betrayed our Ming Dynasty!

Although Jiang Chenlong opened the Yiju Guardstown, this was his personal behavior and has nothing to do with you!

I made this matter clear to His Majesty in my letter, so you don’t have to worry!

In addition, General Cao, please accept my courtesy! Lin Cunde said, saluting Cao Yi heavily!

"Hey, Uncle Luling, what are you doing?" Cao Yi quickly stood up and supported Lin Cunde.

Lin Cunde smiled and said: "General Cao, to be honest, before entering the pass, I was worried about you surrendering to the Supreme Emperor. I was also prepared for a fierce battle. Moreover, I was prepared to annihilate the entire army, wipe out the Wala army and the Liaodong Town army, and ensure that the war would only end. Happened in Liaodong Town!

If so, I don’t know how many people will die in this battle!

Later, when I arrived in Guangning, I was relieved to learn that General Cao was still holding on to Qianbei Town!

Therefore, the gift just now not only represents myself, but also represents the people of Liaodong Town, the officers and soldiers of Liaodong Town, and the officers and soldiers of Ming Dynasty. Also, on behalf of Your Majesty, thank you for believing in Your Majesty and Ming Dynasty during this difficult period! "

Lin Cunde's words were sincere. Now he had no doubt in his heart about Cao Yi and others. Zhu Qizhen had indeed been driven away, and all signs showed that Cao Yi did not betray the Ming Dynasty!

And Lin Cunde's words also made the generals present smile with joy!

Cao Yi was very moved. He did not expect that Lin Cunde would say this. He also raised his hands to Lin Cunde and said: "Sir, I am a military general of the Ming Dynasty. I am not a military commander of Zhu Qizhen alone. I command 150,000 soldiers, and There are millions of people in Liaodong Town. One of my decisions is related to the life and death of so many people. I have to be cautious. Moreover, the Supreme Emperor is kind to me. I admit this, but I still say the same thing. I am Military general of the Ming Dynasty! Since I am the commander-in-chief of Liaodong Town, I must protect the people of this area!"

Lin Cunde nodded quickly and said: "General Cao said it well! Everyone, please be patient. I also know that everyone is worried about whether the court will trust you in the future! Your previous choices are destined to come. You will be Trust, come, General Cao, please sit down!" Lin Cunde asked Cao Yi to sit down, and he also sat down next to him.

When the generals saw Lin Cunde and Cao Yi sitting down, they also sat down. Lin Cunli came with his guards and brought tea to them!

"By the way, sir, this is a letter written by the Supreme Emperor to us. We read it, but there was no reply!" Cao Yi thought of something and took out the letter from his arms, and then all the generals took out the letters!

"Well, okay!" Lin Cunde took it over, and then said to Lin Cunli: "Help me collect it, then seal it with red lacquer in a wooden box and send it to the capital!"

"Yes!" Lin Cunli first took the letter from Lin Cunde, and then went to receive other people's letters.

Cao Yi was surprised that Lin Cunde didn't look at it.

"Sir, don't you take a look?" Cao Yi couldn't help but ask Lin Cunde.

"There is no need to read it. It is just to reminisce about the past and mention that if you are willing to follow the Supreme Emperor, you will be promised high-ranking officials and generous salaries, nobles, etc. These letters are used as evidence of the Supreme Emperor's betrayal of the Ming Dynasty. Naturally, I will send them to His Majesty! Lin Cunde said to Cao Yi and the others with a smile.

Cao Yi nodded and said, "That's true!"

"Well, drink tea!" Lin Cunde persuaded them with a smile!

After Cao Yi drank tea, Lin Cunde also began to ask about the situation in Liaodong Town, and Cao Yi also answered them one by one!

At noon, Lin Cunde invited them to have dinner at the Zhongjun tent.

After eating, Lin Cunde went to rest. Cao Yi and the others did not leave, but went to the nearby tent to rest. They felt more relieved at the moment, but before the dust settled, they still needed to worry!

In the evening, Shi Heng came back, and Yang Xiangzheng continued to guard Yizhou Wei Town!

As soon as Shi Heng got off his horse, he wanted to go find Lin Cunde, but when he saw Cao Yi standing at the door of the tent, he was stunned for a moment!

Cao Yi also discovered that it was Shi Heng, and quickly ran over, cupped his hands in front of Shi Heng and said, "Greetings to Marquis Wu Qing!"

"Ah, Chief Soldier Cao, why are you here? Oh, yes, this is very close to Qianbei Town! Have you seen the Chief Soldier?" Shi Heng asked Cao Yi with a smile. Cao Yi nodded quickly and said, "I've seen you. I had dinner with Uncle Luling at noon, but the army is expected to march tomorrow morning!"

"Well, it doesn't matter. There's nothing going on anyway. I guess we'll have to go back soon!" Shi Heng said nonchalantly. The battle here is over, and the troops led by Lin Cunde are from the third battalion of the capital. Naturally, they have to go back. Beijing garrison!

"Well, Marquis Wu Qing has done a great job!" Cao Yi said with a smile as he cupped his hands.

"I don't have much credit. Oh, don't mention this. I chased Ye Xian and the Supreme Emperor for four or five hours, but we didn't catch him. If I did, I will chop off Ye Xian's head with a knife and send it to your lord. , this is called great credit, now, all my credit is small credit!" When Shi Heng heard this, he became depressed, the credit he had received was gone, it's not that he didn't work hard or work hard, it's because the horse couldn't bear it!

"Ah!" Cao Yi looked at Shi Heng in confusion.

"By the way, I'll talk to you later, and I'll go see you, sir!" Shi Heng waved to Cao Yi and said, he wanted to return to life!

"Your Excellency, it seems that you only went to bed in the afternoon. It's our fault for nagging you all morning!" Cao Yi said quickly to Shi Heng.

When Shi Heng heard this, he also stopped and said, "Oh, that's it. If you want to rest, don't bother me! Come to my tent to chat later. When you wake up, I'm going to return to life!"

"Thank you, sir!" Cao Yi said quickly, handing over his hand, thinking that he would need more help from Shi Heng this time. This time he would command the attack on Shanhaiguan and Liaodong Town. Shi Heng's contribution was huge and his majesty would definitely take him seriously. It might even be possible. Taking a step forward in the title, if Shi Heng can help, then he and his subordinates will probably be able to survive safely.

"Yes. Wait a moment, my guards are setting up tents, they will be ready soon. This time, you also have merit. Being able to stabilize most of the army from following the Supreme Emperor is a great achievement!" Shi Heng said to him Cao Yi said.

After hearing this, Cao Yi smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, how dare you claim credit! Even if we are not punished, we will be very satisfied! Sir, I need more help from you on this matter!"

After saying that, he handed Shi Heng his hand.

Shi Heng was stunned, helping himself? What can you do to help yourself? So he asked Cao Yi suspiciously: "Do you want to punish you?"

"Ah? Is this true?" Cao Yi also looked at Shi Heng in surprise, why did he ask?

"Since there is no such thing? How can I help? How did the adults tell you?" Shi Heng didn't understand even more!

"Well, your Excellency thanked us for stabilizing the situation in Liaodong Town! Moreover, he also showed us the imperial edict. He also said that the imperial edict was given by His Majesty before leaving the country. The current situation is different from what they expected. Therefore, he wrote a memorial I'm going to the capital. Just ask His Majesty to send the Ministry of War and the people from the Ministry of Punishment to come over. That's what he said!" Cao Yi thought for a moment and explained to Shi Heng.

When Shi Heng heard this, he said with a smile: "Then we'll get married, right? The adults have said so, what else do you have to worry about? But, having said that, your choice this time is really good. If you choose to follow Your Majesty, hehe, you guys, it’s probably hard to win! You don’t know the combat effectiveness of the Third Capital Battalion now. It can be said to be the most powerful Third Battalion of the Capital since the founding of the Ming Dynasty! Even if you defend the city, it’s useless, Yizhou It took us less than half a quarter of an hour to capture the Acropolis! We entered it!"

"Ah? Of course, the Third Battalion of the Capital is of course the elite of our dynasty!" Cao Yi could only agree. Cao Yi had not considered whether he could not win, but thinking about it, it might not be possible!

"Don't believe it? Hehe, that's because you haven't seen the third battalion of the capital attacking the city. By the way, your cavalry knows about it. You can just ask when the time comes!" Shi Heng knew that he didn't believe it, so he didn't say more!

"Yes, but it's also the Marquis that you commanded the troops well!" Cao Yi continued to flatter him, feeling a little uncomfortable. Shi Heng didn't seem to want to help!

"This is the Third Battalion of the Capital. It is not an army trained by me. It is an army trained by adults. Moreover, I just defeated Yizhou Guards. Hey, I feel depressed when I talk about this! You said Shanhaiguan attacked Asashi. At that time, why did I defend the city? If I wanted to attack, the Lord would definitely let me go. This time too, I kept chasing but I didn’t chase. Hey, this is also fate!" Shi Heng said I still feel aggrieved about this matter!

"Sir?" Cao Yi frowned and stared at Shi Heng. What did Shi Heng mean by what he just said? In the battle of Shanhaiguan, Shi Heng did not participate?

"What's wrong?" Shi Heng looked at Cao Yi with a confused look.

"In the battle of Shanhaiguan, you didn't fight, so who led and commanded it?" Cao Yi asked the question in his heart.

"Sir!" Shi Heng said casually, then thought of something, so he stared at Cao Yi and asked: "Don't you think that the battle of Shanhaiguan was commanded by me? I don't have this ability! Also, don't underestimate me. "Luling Bo, don't underestimate him because he is only seventeen years old. Let me tell you, before we entered Shanhaiguan, I made a plan to annihilate you. It was only later that I learned that you had not surrendered, so I gave up. You You know, General Xu Xianyong is leading the army to Yingzhou and Jinzhou!

The original plan was to control the coast first, and then fight all the way to our Liaodong Town defense line!

Also, in this battle of Shanhaiguan, I ranked second in credit, Xu Xianyong, Xiang Qing, and Yang Xiangzheng tied for first, but the real number one was Luling Bo! "

Shi Heng said those words very seriously!

Cao Yidu looked at Shi Heng dumbfounded! A seventeen-year-old boy commanded this battle and wiped out 50,000 people in Wala. Who dares to believe it?
