Borrow the day to change the day

Lu Xiangsheng stood behind Zhong Jinwei and watched Qin Liangyu lead the troops away, feeling a little regretful that he could no longer go after Jianlu.

Sun Chengzong felt that his contribution was great enough, and it was inconvenient to compete with other generals for credit, so he excused that he needed to rest and did not let him go. This was also for his own good, and Lu Xiangsheng could understand.

Inside and outside Qingshui Mingyue Pass, the infantry from Shanhaiguan began to clean up the mess and stationed in Qingshui Mingyue Pass to guard against attacks from the grassland.

The remaining 500 minzhuang from Daming Mansion handed over the defense area to the Shanhaiguan infantry, and then went to the camp at the foot of the pass mountain.

Both have been busy for a day and a night, but the harvest of the two sides is completely different.My side is still the regular army of Ming Dynasty, but they are just a group of civilians recruited temporarily.

Many people have realized that it is really important to follow the leadership!

The Minzhuang could feel the strangeness in their eyes, and followed Zhongxinghou with their heads up and their chests upright.

This time following Zhongxing Hou to fight Qingshui Mingyue Pass to the death, not only did he gain credit, but also obtained unimaginable wealth before, which made these people feel that this time was really worth it.

Lu Xiangsheng walked behind Zhong Jinwei. After hesitating for a long time, he couldn't help but secretly asked Zhong Jinwei: "Master Hou, you distributed all the property seized from Jianlu to the soldiers, isn't it too much?" [

Zhong Jinwei looked at Sun Chengzong who was walking in front, then turned his head and answered Lu Xiangsheng in a low voice: "If they hadn't tried their best to stop them, these properties would have been plundered outside the pass by Jianlu. Many of them paid the price with their lives, and Disabled for a lifetime, this mere property is what they deserve."

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he stopped talking.Hou Zhongxing didn't take any points himself, and gave all the seized property to the soldiers, making him secretly admire Zhong Jinwei's broad-mindedness and attitude towards money.

If it was an ordinary general, how could he not be jealous when he saw so much property, it was their kindness to leave a little property for the soldiers.

Yan Yingyuan was listening to Lu Xiangsheng and Zhong Jinwei talking, but he didn't feel embarrassed to interrupt, because Zhong Jinwei forced him to share his share.He knew that Zhong Jinwei's kindness was to ask him to give more money to Tongzhou's family.

After entering the camp at the foot of the mountain, especially when they saw the sleeping beds prepared in advance, the folks came up tired and fell asleep.

But in the Chinese military tent, the two who were equally tired were still discussing things.

After Sun Chengzong asked Zhong Jinwei to sit down, he took out a letter from the side and said: "The emperor is concerned about you, and wants you to go back early."

Zhong Jinwei smiled after listening, then took the letter and read it.

Sun Chengzong yawned, and then nagged Zhong Jinwei: "The emperor needs to know that you are rushing to take risks, and you don't know what you will be worried about. Fortunately, the war ended soon, otherwise the old man will definitely be blamed by the emperor, and he is not optimistic about it." you."

Zhong Jinwei quickly finished reading the letter, and just looked up and saw Sun Chengzong yawned again, so he said to him: "Master Sun, you should go and rest quickly, otherwise if something goes wrong, the court will suffer a great loss."

"Crow's Mouth! Now that the victory is decided, and you have captured the slave chief alive, the old man is willing to stay up for another day and night!" Sun Chengzong was in a good mood and answered Zhong Jinwei with a smile.

Zhong Jinwei saw that Sun Chengzong refused to go to rest, so he said to him: "Master Sun, I have something here, and I want to reach an agreement with you."

"Oh, what is it?" Sun Chengzong was a little curious.

"I heard that the Mongolian Tartars were also involved in the murders committed in the capital, and they are no worse than Jianlu. This revenge must be avenged." Zhong Jinwei put away his smile and said what he learned from Yu Haijing. over again.

"Then what do you mean?" Sun Chengzong asked after pondering. [

"Anyone who dares to offend the Great Ming will be punished even if he is far away!" Zhong Jinwei said so resolutely that Sun Chengzong suddenly felt that he had an awe-inspiring aura.

"You mean to send troops to retaliate against those Mongolian tribes who accompanied Jianlu into the customs?" Sun Chengzong asked.

"Yes, imitating Huo Qubing, the great general of hussars, and sent cavalry to raid the Mongolian Tartars outside the pass."

Sun Chengzong frowned and said, "Is this a bit risky?"

"I don't think it's risky at all. If it's to fight Jianlu, it's definitely a risk based on the current strength. But those Mongol Tartars, it's not that I underestimated them. When I rescued Changli, an ambush could kill them 4000 people, but we did not lose much. The combat power of the Jianlu and the Mongol Tartars is basically the difference between the sky and the ground." Zhong Jinwei explained to Sun Chengzong disapprovingly.

Sun Chengzong stopped talking, and clasped the table in front of him with his hands, while thinking about Zhong Jinwei's proposal.

"And after the battle with Jianlu, there is a very clear reason. Jianlu is not very powerful. As long as my Ming generals are capable and train the soldiers well, it will not be difficult to defeat them. Just like today's cavalry battle, if It’s not that the generals have their own plans, I think the strength of the cavalry, especially the strength of Guan Ning’s cavalry, won’t turn defeat into victory for Jianlu.”

Zhong Jinwei continued to talk about reasons to impress Sun Chengzong: "It seems that in the past, Jianlu often sent out a few thousand people, and they beat the Mongols to join them."

Sun Chengzong nodded slightly: "It's not impossible to send cavalry troops out of customs to retaliate. But there are two problems to be solved first. Who will lead this lone army first? Second, how should Mongolian Lin Dan Khan use this as an excuse to attack the court?" ?”

Ever since Zhong Jinwei came up with the idea of ​​sending troops to retaliate against the Mongolian Tartars, he had thought about it thoroughly, including these two questions asked by Sun Chengzong, so he immediately told Sun Chengzong his thoughts one by one.

After Sun Chengzong asked a few more questions, he nodded in agreement and said: "Okay, I can play to the emperor with you. Anyone who dares to offend the Ming Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away."

After saying this, Sun Chengzong seemed to be many years younger, and he had the high-spirited feeling of his youth again.

He could feel that after this suggestion was put forward, the equally young Emperor Chongzhen would definitely agree.No emperor would dislike that his empire could make Siyi surrender, and he dared not have a trace of covetous existence!

Sun Chengzong chatted with Zhong Jinwei for a while before going back to rest.I didn't sleep all day and night, and I was nervous about the war, and my spirit was already exhausted.

As soon as he fell asleep like this, he went straight into deep sleep.

Early the next morning, the whole army recovered from exhaustion, and then Sun Chengzong ordered the camp to move westward.

Lu Xiangsheng and Yan Yingyuan led more than 300 civilians to guard the Chinese army, and accompanied Sun Chengzong and Zhong Jinwei.

Just when they had walked for a few miles, the dust was flying in front of them, and they saw the red flag of the Ming cavalry from a long distance away.

The cavalry quickly stopped in front of the infantry, and then Qin Liangyu led the expedition generals to the Chinese army to meet Sun Chengzong and Zhong Jinwei.

Zhong Jinwei saw them approaching in high spirits, and knew that the battle must have been won.

Sure enough, Qin Liangyu reported to them the process of chasing and killing Jianlu.

They caught up with Jianlu near Taipingzhai. Jianlu was fighting with the North Route Army at that time.

To be precise, it was the North Route Army who bumped into Jianlu who was fleeing westward.Just as he was in a defensive position, he was rushed into the formation by Jianlu, who jumped over the wall in a hurry.

When Qin Liangyu led his army to arrive, the Northern Route Army could no longer hold back the Jianlu, and some areas were defeated.

As long as they arrive a little later, they probably won't see the North Route Army.

It is precisely because of this that their cavalry army, which was several times larger than that of Jianlu, killed Jianlu from behind, and immediately defeated Jianlu.

After a fight, if it wasn't too late, the three thousand Jianlu who escaped would probably be confessed in the pass.

Sun Chengzong was very happy to hear that, and immediately ordered the army to turn around and march towards Qian'an.

After arriving in Qian'an, Sun Chengzong and Zhong Jinwei jointly reported victory, while arranging the defense of the Great Wall.After all the defense arrangements were made, the triumphant squadron returned to Beijing.

On October 27, the second year of Chongzhen, the war of Jianlu's invasion of Gyeonggi finally ended on March [-], the third year of Chongzhen, and Belgium ended two months earlier.
