Bringing Military Supplies to Ming Dynasty

“Hey, isn’t this an old problem? When I was guarding Lucheng before, which brothers hadn’t tasted the feeling of being hungry, it seemed that I couldn’t get fat from that time. Oh, haha.” Xu Yuan said with a big laugh. After saying this, he suppressed the smile on his face and became a hesitant to speak.

Because of Xu Yuan’s words, I recalled the memories of the past, but goodbye seemed to have gone back to the time when I hadn’t had enough to eat and didn’t wear a shirt. There was a sense of guilt unnaturally in my expression. After all, he is a general in the army, and the brothers below do not have enough food, which is his greatest responsibility.

Because of this topic, the room became silent for a while. It was not until after five or six breaths that the expression was restored and goodbye, and then asked aloud, “Master Xu, there is something wrong here. , But what happened to the Ming army outside the city?”

“No, it’s not.” Xu Yuan answered quickly, but he was hesitant, and even his neck rose. Get flushed.

This scene fell in the eyes of Shebye, making him very curious. He knows his subordinate very well. Although his ability is average, he has a straighter personality. It is because the knife rests on his neck and he will not frown. What makes him so embarrassed? With curiosity, he asked aloud, “Master Xu, did something happen?”

“This…yes.” Xu didn’t seem to know how to answer. Yuan simply admitted it very directly.

“Oh? What’s the matter?” Seeing Xu Yuan admit it, he became even more curious about goodbye. He wanted to know exactly what happened, so that the always hearty counterpart would make such a twitching state.

Faced with the question of Farewell, Xu Yuan not at all answered immediately. Instead, he took a deep breath first, then stared at She Farewell and said: “Army, now Our New Second Army’s Shajing City and Jingzhou City were separately besieged by Northern Ming, but I don’t know if King Wu Nan has any clever plan to relieve the siege?”

When I hear that this is the case, don’t take it lightly. shook the head said: “I haven’t received any new instructions from Sixth Young Master so far. I am afraid that everything will continue to wait.”

“Wait?” Hearing this answer, Xu Yuan seemed to become a little excited at this moment, and said loudly: “Military seat, the besieged city has been ten or so days, not to mention whether Northern Ming’s army will suddenly attack the city, just say that the brothers in the city have already been People were alarmed, so I’m afraid it will be…”

Don’t wait for Xu Yuan to finish speaking, don’t change the composure of neither fast nor slow just now and ask, “Wait , What happened to the brothers in the city?”

“Huh? This…” Xu Yuan seemed a little embarrassed, a complicated expression appeared in his eyes, but then he seemed to think of something, with ten He said in a firm tone: “Military seat, I don’t want to hide it from you. Some of the brothers below can’t stand it and have already started to think of other ways.”

“Other ways? What way? Is it to Northern Can Ming fail to surrender?” Yang Chendong was attracted by Yang Chendong, how clever it was to give up, and immediately thought of something.

Xu Yuan was sighed in relief, who was still thinking about what excuse he would use to say this thing. Some things are afraid that I have not said anything, but I have to tweak it. Once I say it, then it doesn’t matter. At the moment, he said with a straight face: “Yes, what the army said is, but it is not surrender. In the words of King Wunan, it’s called a battlefield uprising.”

“Battlefield uprising? Are you the leader?” Seeing Xu Yuan saying this with such confidence, I don’t understand why I don’t understand, my confidant I’m afraid I’m already in Cao Ying’s heart.

“No, headed by the army seat.” To his surprise, Xu Yuan answered like this.

At that moment, I was stunned to give up, and then shook the head seriously: “I never said that I would revolt on the battlefield, let alone bow to Northern Ming, but I don’t know Xu Where did the teacher hear the false news?”

“Military seat, this is not false news, but the subordinates bravely made arrangements for you. Of course, this is not what I meant. It’s the common meaning of some Old Brothers in the past.” It seems that he was ready to talk a long time ago, and Xu Yuan was very happy when he said this.

The words fell, and the hall became silent again. A sentence of Old Brothers made the expression of parting farewell shocked and inexplicable. But at the same time, he also thought of a lot of things, thought of the materials sent by the army inspector’s office two days ago.

It was stated above that after the siege of the Northern Ming army, the original order in Shajing City, which had just restored, became a little chaotic again. After investigation by the Inspectorate, the ultimate goal turned out to be the Old Brother who was the commander, that is, the Mongolian veterans who had guarded the city of Dalu together.

Because the matter involved these veteran figures, the personnel of the Inspectorate did not make the decision to arrest them, but reported to the commander of the army and asked him to decide. And for the Old Brother’s friendship, Farewell also used a public tool for private use for the first time and suppressed the matter. Originally, he wanted to wait for the situation to be less tense. He had a conversation with the Old Brothers, but he didn’t expect that they Actually found himself first.

The shock in my heart is naturally not small, but I still don’t understand why when I guarded the city of Lu, everyone couldn’t even eat, but they still stick to it. Situation, why do you think about surrendering? Feeling puzzled, he looked towards Xu Yuan and asked, “Why?”

“Military seat, brothers are really afraid to have a harder life. In the past few years, everyone’s life has improved and they have also been discussed. Women, and some even married several. Now when they are not alone before, everyone has too much scruples.” When answering this question, Xu Yuan’s eyes were also a little red, and it seemed that they were not very The willingness.

Don’t go to see Xu Yuan, but keep talking, “Life is good, everyone can’t be suffering anymore? Hehe, it is really easy to change from frugality to luxury, and it is difficult to change from luxury to frugality. Ah!”

People are often like this. When they have nothing, they try their best, even if they only have 1% hope, they dare to fight. On the contrary, when you have everything you dare not take risks, even if there is a 70-80% chance of success, you have to think twice.

This is the case right now. The Old Brothers who don’t know what they are dead are afraid of death. This is really something that I didn’t expect.

Gently lowered his head and thought goodbye, his eyes were a little red, but he was really sad and disappointed. Unexpectedly, when he was in danger, it was not the others who appeared the first demon’ezi, but the Old Brothers he trusted the most.

Really knowing people, knowing faces and not knowing heart.

But after only a moment of silence, she raised her head, and when she looked towards Xu Yuan again, her expression became more serious. “Does the Old Brothers mean this? Have you thought about whether Northern Ming will accept your surrender? What good is it?”

“Military seat, the Northern Ming Army said, As long as we surrender, everything is fine, and it is impossible for brothers to join the ranks.” Xu Yuan quickly answered this question.

It was this answer that flashed a surprise in the expression of parting. He finally understood that Xu Yuan did not come here to talk casually, but already had a proposition. It’s not so much to discuss with yourself, it is more precise to inform yourself.

Then the problem comes again, how do they know the attitude of the Northern Ming army towards themselves? With this incomprehension, don’t ask: “Master Xu, how do you know about this. I remember that the city gate has been closed for more than 20 days, so we should not be able to contact the outside world.” /p>

“Uh…the Old Brothers deliberately released water when they were guarding the city gate. Oh, yes, there is a Northern Ming merchant named Rong Shao in the city. You should still remember the army seat, he is our partner The middleman that Northern Ming contacted.” It seems that he knew that he was not abiding by military discipline. Xu Yuan just passed these words from one generation to the next, and specifically mentioned Rong Shao.

“Rong Shao!” Hearing the name, I said goodbye to nodded, “I know this man.”

Since the New Second Army occupied Shajing City, there have been quite a few Northern Ming merchants appear here, and Rong Shao is the most famous one among them. Probably because his business is very big and rich. I heard that he was very relevant in the Northern Ming army. Now it seems that this is a spy sent by the other side.

Hearing that she knew about Rong Shao’s person, Xu Yuan immediately said: “Yes, this is the person, and he was the first subordinate he sought privately, and he told us the attitude of the Northern Ming army towards us. “

“What’s your attitude? Sixth Young Master treats you very well. You are now a teacher. Isn’t it dissatisfied?” Speaking with some anger, even some stern tone.

When talking about this, Xu Yuan was obviously more emboldened. “Yes, I am now the commander of the first division, but the position of the division commander is just that’s all. The New Second Army has four divisions, and all three are cavalry divisions. There is only one infantry division of us. , Is this can be considered important?”

“hehe, hehe.” Listening to this answer, She Farewell suddenly laughed a few times, and asked back when she stopped abruptly, “Xu Yuan Yeah, Xu Yuan, it seems that you are still blaming Sixth Young Master for not becoming a cavalry commander.”

“Of course I blame him. We are a strong army galloping on the grassland, here only Only the cavalry can give full play to his advantage. What’s the matter with the infantry division? Is this also considered important?” When talking about this, Xu Yuan looked angry.

Xu Yuan is venting the anger in his heart, so why not give up?

When the New Second Army was first established, he took the initiative to request Yang Chendong to send a few Titans to himself. If not, he was really worried about the battle strength of the army. To this end, Yang Chendong agreed, and the three cavalry commanders were personally arranged by him, and they were all courageous people. The reason for arranging Xu Yuan to be the infantry division commander is actually because of his selfishness. He asked for it. After all, there are not many Old Brothers. Relatively speaking, the infantry division is safer. This is why these arrangements are made. .
