Chapter 36 Go and stay at your convenience
Xiao Tianjian was somewhat surprised by the response of the Tatar's reaction to this battle. Originally, he had done a good job of revenge to welcome the Tatar's, and even mobilized the generals under his command. He only waited for a desperate battle with the Tatar Army, but he didn't think that after Dorcong and Yue Tuo suffered such a big loss, Ju However, he chose to stop the army and not fight. He set up a camp far away to the east of the Xiaozhang River, and did not mobilize the troops again to find the Xing Tianjun to fight to the end.
This kind of performance makes Xiao Tianjian a little confused. After all, now he has already jumped out of history and doesn't know what will happen in the future. The future history is also hidden in a fog. The specific direction the historical giant car will drive in. Now he is completely unclear, so he At this moment, he basically consumed the advantages. For a while, he couldn't see through the performance of the tartar.
However, since the Tari doesn't move, he will not wait here. With the troops he has brought so far, it is not enough to fight with the Taritan soldiers who entered the customs this time. He will not be stupid enough to squat here and wait for the Tari to play tricks, so no matter how the Taritans act, he will act according to his original plan.
In the morning of the next day after saving the remnants of the Xuan army, Xiao Tianjian ordered the army to start, and continued to take Situ Liang's cavalry as the leader, Li Yantian's battle barracks as the palace, and hundreds of Xuan soldiers, and began to march towards Ren County, Shunde Prefecture.
The hand soldiers did not immediately catch up with him, but sent a large number of Rangers to spy behind the Xingtian soldiers and stared at the Xingtian army from afar.
At this time, the local people in Shunde Prefecture had already gone south because of the Tasant soldiers, and those who could run ran south. The villages they passed were almost ten rooms and nine empty, and there was almost no trace of smoke within dozens of miles. On the way of Xing Tianjun, he would see the corpses of many people along the way from time to time. These ordinary people were not There was time to run away and was caught up by the small number of Tartar soldiers and horses who were plundering around. The young man was taken away by them, and the old and weak people were directly slaughtered. Among them, there were some women who were abused by the Tartars and resisted to being killed. The situation can be said to be unbearable.
Looking at these evils made by the tartans, Xiao Tianjian's first thing that came to mind was the things that the devils did when they invaded China in the picture. He hated it so much that he gritted their teeth, and the soldiers of the Xingtian army gritted their teeth with hatred after looking at these scenes. They felt that this trip to the north was right. I couldn't help cursing the cruelty of the Tart and the incompetence of the court. At the same time, with the hundreds of Xuanda officers and soldiers who acted by the Xing Tianjun, they were all shameless. After all, they are the officers and soldiers of the court. It should be their duty to protect the family and defend the country, but they could not do this. They looked at the Tart deep. It was so deep to enter the mainland of the Ming Dynasty, which made the people of the Ming Dynasty look like this.
However, the generals of the Xingtian Army are clearly divided. Some people comfort these officers and soldiers so that they don't have to think too much about this kind of thing. After all, these soldiers and generals follow Lord Lu Xiangsheng Lu and do what they do. Although they are unable to return to heaven, they are also good men, so they don't have to mind. This made these Xuan soldiers more or less better.
After all, he was operating in the jurisdiction of the government. Xiao Tianjian was very cautious when going north this time. He kept sending a large number of scouts to guard around the army. The farthest scouts even sent out tens of miles away from the army. After the operation of the army, The scouts began to send the news they found back to Xiao Tianjian.
A small team of scouts returned to the army from the south in the afternoon and reported an important news to Xiao Tianjian, that is, the 30,000 Guanning army, which had been lying in the Gaoqiqian area of Jize for many days. Today, there was a sudden movement. The army began to pull out the camp early in the morning, and the batches began to move towards Xing Tianjun's position is coming, and the speed is not slow. At this time, he has also marched to the area of Nanhe County, southeast of Shunde Prefecture, only more than 30 miles away from Xing Tianjun, and it seems to be coming towards the position of Xing Tianjun, but I can't figure out what they want to do.
Xiao Tianjian immediately became alert. Gao Qiqian, this castration, was not a thing. He took more than 30,000 Guanning elite soldiers under his command. After the Tatar entered the customs, they sat guarding the capital and watched the Tatar army raging in the land of the capital, but they were afraid and always avoided the war. After the Tatars went south to Baoding and Zhending, they left. The capital went south. On the way, according to the refugees in the Jingfu land who fled to the south, the Guanning army led by Gao Qiqian was not much different from the Tatars. Wherever they passed, they grabbed food and money everywhere, and the evil people were not much better than the Tatars. However, after they went south, they still refused to fight with the Tatar soldiers. They were very careful. The doers of Yiyi gathered together until they ran to Jize before they stopped, and watched Lu Xiangsheng fall into crisis, but he sat by and couldn't help.
And now they must have got the news that Xing Tianjun raided the slave army in Julu and rescued Lu Xiangsheng. Now Gao Qiqian suddenly made a move. They didn't go to find the Tatars, but why did they lean towards their Xing Tianjun?
When Xiao Tianjian thought of this, he immediately felt that things seemed to be a little wrong. Was it possible that Gao Qiqian heard that Xing Tianjun could fight and led his troops to join hands with Xing Tianjun to deal with the tartar? No! Gao Qiqian is the most trusted eunuch in front of today's emperor Zhu Youjian. What is the relationship between Xing Tianjun and the court? Xiao Tianjian is naturally as clear as a mirror. As Gao Qiqian, he will definitely not take the initiative to join hands with him.
So what did he think of leading the troops? A series of question marks flashed in Xiao Tianjian's mind.
"Explore again! Keep an eye on them! In addition, you might as well show your identity and see how they react! If they adopt a hostile attitude towards you, come back as soon as possible to tell me!" Xiao Tianjian said to Lin Luo on horseback.
Lin Luo immediately saluted on the horse and turned around to arrange the matter.
After Xiao Tianjian thought for a moment, he recruited Yang Lukai, who followed the army, and informed Yang Lukai of the news.
Yang Lukai is the shepherd under the command of Lu Xiangsheng. This time, Yang Lukai, Lu, the "death" of Lusheng, was very sad and angry. Last night, he scolded all night and cried and fainted twice. At this time, he was very depressed. When he learned that Xiao Tianjian had summoned him, he rushed up and asked Xiao Tianjian what was the matter with Xiao Tianjian.
After listening to Xiao Tianjian's information about Gao Qiqian, Yang Lukai was also a little confused and couldn't figure out what Gao Qiqian thought at this time.
"General Yang, although we went north this time to fight against the tartar, after all, our identity is different. In your eyes, I, Xiao, is still a thief chief. Although I will take you out, after all, you are still officers and soldiers. I might as well say frankly that it is not a way to go on like this. Now Gao Qiqian has led The officers and soldiers are coming. If any of you don't want to follow me, I, Xiao, can understand and send him away! The Ttar did not catch up at this time. If any of you wants to dive high, now is the safest time to go! But if a brother doesn't want to go back to work for the court and wants to stay under Xiao's command to do something, I, Xiao also raise my hands to welcome him. It's up to you to choose where to go. If someone wants to stay and is worried about his family staying in Xuanda, General Yang can also tell the generals below that Xiao is not talented. I'm still a little capable. I'm sure your family will have no worries. I will send someone to take them to the jurisdiction of my Xingtian Army for proper placement! General Yang can arrange it and ask what those generals think!" Xiao Tianjian didn't expect Yang Lukai to help him. He said to Yang Lukai.
After listening to this, Yang Lukai looked at Xiao Tianjian. The expression on his face was very entangled. After all, he was an official body, and Xiao Tianjian was a thief. It was also a matter of course that he said so. However, Yang Lukai couldn't save them because of his high rise and diving, and he hated what Lu Xiangsheng and Xuan's soldiers did everywhere, so much that he was asked him to vote. Gao Qiqian, he will never agree, and he also knows that as soon as Lu Xiangsheng dies, he will not have a good end even if he returns to the government system in the future. Now most of the officials in the court are people of the city fox society. Those officials led by Yang Sichang will certainly not make him feel better. Xiao Tianjian is now Give him a choice, and where to go depends on his choice.
Yang Lukai hesitated for a long time. Suddenly, he knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Tianjian and said, "Thank you, Marshal Xiao, for helping us in times of crisis. This kindness is like recreating parents! After Lord Lu left, Yang's heart was completely cold. In this court official, Yang was not willing to sell his life for them. He did not thank him. If the marshal did not give up, Yang was willing to lead the horse for the marshal from now on, wear a firm and tena to follow him! Please take it in!"
After hearing this, Xiao Tianjian immediately turned over and got off his horse. He helped Yang Lukai up with both hands. He didn't dare to ask Yang Lukai and think about it clearly. Yang Lukai nodded resolutely and said yes, and he swore not to regret it.
Xiao Tianjian nodded and agreed. He directly left Yang Lukai in his guard and was also in charge of the herdsman. In the future, Yang Lukai immediately knelt down to thank him again. From then on, Yang Lukai turned into a close minister of Xiao Tianjian.
entrusted by Xiao Tianjian, Yang Lukai returned to the Xuan generals and told Xiao Tianjian's words to these Xuan generals. After listening to Yang Lukai's words, many Xuan generals began to hesitate, but some people should not go back to the officers and soldiers even if they showed their intentions and determined not to leave. Xing Tianjun did it, but some people finally chose to leave Xing Tianjun and go to the high dive. When the war subsided, they went home separately.
For those who stayed, Yang Lukai ordered them to list and arrange them separately. For those who wanted to leave, Xiao Tianjian also ordered them to treat them well. Each person gave them ten taels of silver as their road money. In addition, he also prepared some food for everyone to bring food on the road. Yes, it is also regarded as being benevolent and righteous to them, so these more than 300 Xuan soldiers will leave the team of the Xingtian Army under the leadership of a general, and help each other to go towards the position of the high submersible army according to the direction pointed to them by the Xing Tianjun. At the same time, Xiao Tianjian also sent a team of scouts to guide. They protected them well and saw that Xing Tianjun treated them so leniently. Even if these officers and soldiers chose to go home, they were still grateful to Xing Tianjun. When they left, they swore to God that no matter where they met Xing Tianjun in their lives, they would never be enemies with Xing Tianjun.
