Chapter 128
After a while, the noise got closer and closer, and Hu Guang finally heard it clearly: "Great victory in Changli, nearly [-] casualties of Jianlu, great victory in Changli..."

Oh, it turns out that the Changli News has arrived.He listened roughly and knew the reason.This great victory was unprecedented. No wonder the people and soldiers who heard the voice couldn't help cheering even though the strictest martial law was still being enforced at this time.

In fact, Hu Guang already knew about the Changli Battle Report.Therefore, relatively speaking, he appeared very calm.But after winning the battle, we still need to publicize it, or at least make a statement.

Therefore, Hu Guang had to deal with the great victory first, receive the messenger who risked his life to rush into the capital, give rewards, and officially announce the news to the people of the capital, etc.

At this time, Man Gui was at the head of the city, listening to the cheers in the capital city, and was amazed at the emperor's unpredictability in his heart, and somewhat relaxed his tense expression for days.Looking at the movement of Jianlu outside the city, he also somewhat understood why Jianlu was preparing to withdraw from the army.

Although most of the [-] Jianlu were not real Jianlu, the tragic situation of almost annihilating the entire army would definitely hit the morale of the Jianlu outside the city, allowing them to wake up. The Ming army was not all trash.Under the emperor's strong plan to clear the country, they realized that even taking down the small county of Changli is so difficult. If Jianlu didn't consider the danger he might encounter when staying in Gyeonggi, then he couldn't say how cunning Jianlu was. , but how stupid.

Man Gui was observing through the telescope, and he found that Jianlu's scouting horse was actually shrinking.That's right, if the Jianlu spy horses were tightly sealed, the messengers would not be able to rush into the capital.

It can also be seen from this point that Jianlu really has the intention to retreat.Because after the messenger rushed into the capital, the impact on the morale of the defending troops was also obvious.Unless Jianlu is mentally ill, he will send messengers into the city before continuing to attack the capital.

Towards evening, the hundreds of Jurchen Tartars who had been on display outside the Jianlu camp for nearly a day were put down and carried into the camp. This further confirmed Man Gui's speculation that Jianlu was about to leave.

In the distance outside the city, strands of the Ming army appeared from time to time even if they were not closed at night, and they all looked at the Jianlu camp in the distance like the heads of the city.Seeing Jianlu Tanma passing by, they ran away quickly, and when Jianlu Tanma came back, they appeared again.It can be seen that the news of Changli's great victory has also affected these nights, otherwise they would not be so bold, and Jianlu's visit would not be perfunctory.

"My lord, the war in the capital is coming to an end, and His Majesty will definitely reward you!" A servant leader next to Man Gui said with a smile, "No one can take away this credit!"

Hearing that, Man Gui's bearded face smiled, and suddenly he opened his mouth and yawned, then handed the binoculars to the servant next to him and said: "Hold it carefully, monitor the movement of the Jianlu camp, don't be careless , sir, I will rest for a while."

Inside the city, the former Chief Assistant Han Yu also heard the news of Changli's great victory, and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Seven thousand Jianlu? Zu Dashou is so capable? I don't believe it!"

"Didn't you say that more than [-] people were captured? This can't be faked." Steward Cao shook his head and said, "It seems that Zu Dashou is desperate."

"Hehe, this Zu Dashou is really scared after being severely reprimanded by the emperor!" Han Yu said sarcastically, bowed his head in thought for a while, and then shouted: "Come here, grind ink, the old man wants to write a memorial to congratulate the emperor. "

He is going to gain a sense of presence!Cao Steward understood what he meant, so he stood up and bowed to Han Yu, "My lord, I will go back first by taking advantage of this great victory."

Han Yu pondered for a while after hearing this, and then said to Steward Cao: "This time the great victory over Jianlu, Zu Dashou will definitely be reused. The old man thought, the relationship with the Guanning Army should be strengthened, and the allies in the army can One more copy is as much as possible, after all, Jianlu is still there, and the civil uprising in the Northwest has not yet been resolved."

"You must bring your lord's words to my master." Butler Cao nodded and immediately agreed.

"By the way, the magistrate of Changli County will definitely be reused, and this person has to be recruited." Han Yu suddenly remembered, and quickly said again, "Money is not a problem. If it is not enough, you can ask Fan Wang to wait for a few others to send some. come over."

Steward Cao nodded after hearing this, and when he was about to speak, he suddenly remembered something, and reminded him: "I seem to remember that I have seen the material of the Changli County Magistrate before, and it seems that it is just a person of Juren's background."

Han Yu was slightly taken aback when he heard this, but he believed that Steward Cao was right. After all, Steward Cao was Cao Yubian's confidant, and it was normal to see these materials.He frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Forget it, it's just a mere promotion, even if you make great achievements this time, you won't be able to stand in the court, and it's not worth spending money on him!"

"Then I'll take my leave!" Steward Cao smiled, bowed his hands again, and left.

The news of the great victory in Changli also affected other officials in the capital.All of a sudden, officials at all levels were thinking about the impact this great victory would have on the court and how they could benefit from it.

Although they have different ideas, there is one thing they agree on, that is, they have written memorials to congratulate the emperor, to brush up their own sense of existence.

At night, there is the sound of horseshoes from time to time, from Tongzhou City Gate to Yamen Gate.

The governor explaining the scriptures and a group of soldiers were sitting in the lobby, listening to Ye Buhui's report from time to time.

"Report to Zhongcheng, when the sky was getting dark, Jianlu suddenly sent out a large number of probing horses, and the subordinates could no longer look at Jianlu's camp from a distance." A Ye Bushou was also sweating profusely in this winter, and his breath was uncertain. .

Hearing the biography of the scriptures, he was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at the general soldiers and said, "What is the meaning of this, is the Jianlu going to attack the capital again?"

After hearing this, Hei Yunlong stood up and clasped his fists to the governor in the hall, saying, "Judging from the general's many years of experience, Jianlu is planning to retreat tonight!"

Ma Dengyun also clasped his fists and said in agreement: "Judging from the previous military reports, the last general also thought that Jianlu was about to retreat, so he sent a large number of scouts to shield the movement."

Hearing the biblical commentary, he was not very happy. After waving his hand away, he frowned and said, "Is the Jian prisoner going to retire?"

Hei Yunlong knew the reason for the governor's unhappiness, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Zhongcheng, Jianlu sent a lot of scouts, which also shows that his morale must have been greatly affected, and he doesn't want to stop the scouts for me tomorrow night." have to."

"Oh?" Hearing the commentary, he said with a slightly excited expression, "You mean, we have a chance?"

"The last general thinks that we can send more people at night without accepting them, and then make a decision after investigating the movements of the Jian captives!" Hei Yunlong replied with a slightly excited expression.

The other chief soldiers looked at each other, nodded, and then looked at Zhong Cheng, waiting for his order.

After listening to the biblical commentary, he glanced at them, and suddenly stood up, with an inexplicable light in his eyes, and said, "Okay, then I will rely on you all, and do your best!"

 Thank you Magic Fengxiyang for your reward!
