Chapter 55 Reassurance

These cavalrymen are all rough men. If you reason with them, you will definitely stick your hot face to their cold buttocks, and you will definitely not get their approval. Therefore, Wang Chengping is familiar with the virtues of these men and always likes to scold them, not to mention that these guys are really The more they ate this, the more they were scolded, the more energetic they became. After being scolded by Wang Chengping, they felt much more comfortable. They all suddenly regained their pride again. At the same time, they turned over their horses, pulled out the Xue Liang's waist knife together, raised them high above their heads, and followed Wang Chengping shouted to kill slaves.

Yan Chongxi, Wu Xiang and Luo Li both saw him off in person. Countless people who helped the battle in the Shanhaiguan area were all excited when they heard the news that the Dazhong army would come back to reinforce the army. Now the Dazhong army cavalry, who have made great achievements, has to go west to continue to resist the invasion of another road, which made the people all admire, and they have also sent each other. Although there is a shortage of materials now, and the people can't eat pot pulp to reward them, this enthusiasm also moved Wang Chengping and his soldiers.

The cavalry and generals were all cheered and urged the horses to line up one after another, showing their most majestic side. They straightened their waists one by one on the war horse, and their bodies slightly fluctuated up and down with the action of the war horse. With the order of Wang Chengping, they shook the reins one after another and roared the horses in the attention of the public. He left Shanhaiguan and galloped towards the capital Shuntianfu, leaving a dusty smoke behind him.

The send-offs had been watching their backs and flags disappear at the end of the road, and then they turned around and stepped into the defense of the city.

Wu Xiang can be said to be very happy at this moment. When Luo Li led the troops, he saw the strength of the strong soldiers and horses in the large and medium-sized army. Although the increased troops here were not much after the change of defenses, the strength of defending the city increased a lot, and Luo Li's trip brought a lot of fire. Guns and ammunition, coupled with his command, are basically good soldiers, and guarding customs is what they are good at, which greatly enhances the defense force in the Shanhaiguan area.

Therefore, Wu Xiang no longer has to worry about the Shanhaiguan customs may be broken by the Jiannu army. These days, it is only the strong combat effectiveness shown by Yan Chongxi's left army, which has opened their Ming army's eyes. Now there is another guard under the command of the emperor. What else is he? What can I worry about?

This is not Wu Xiang's happiest thing. As Luo Li came to change his guard, the news that Wu Xiang was waiting was also brought into Shanhaiguan with a small team of people in their casual clothes.

This team of people and horses were all in casual clothes. They did not wear the clothes of the Dazhong army. Their faces were full of dust. Obviously, they rushed here day and night from far away. They were not sent by the Ming court, but came here day and night directly from the Dazhong emperor Xiao Tianjian. They were the identity of the leaders. He is the summoning envoy of the emperor.

Because Wu Xiang's temporary identity is still the important general of the Ming Dynasty, the summoner of this team who came to issue the decree did not openly disclose his identity, but contacted Wu Xiang in private through the personnel of the special affairs office.

As soon as Wu Xiang heard this, he immediately sent someone to secretly connect them to Shanhaiguan and secretly brought them directly to his house.

Only then did the comer disclose his identity in front of Wu Xiang, and then asked a decree issued by Xiao Tianjian himself to read it to Wu Xiang.

It turned out that after Feng Weihan forced Wu Xiang to surrender, he sent a joint report with Lu Xiangsheng and Yan Chongxi to Xiao Tianjian, who was attacking all the way along the canal, and asked for Wu Xiang to seal it.

Xiao Tianjian learned the news in Cangzhou. When he learned that Wu Xiang was willing to turn to his Dazhong Dynasty, a stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. Originally, he struggled to kill Wu Sangui in Yanggu County. He thought that Shanhaiguan could rest assured in the future, but he did not think that the court would choose him. He chose it, but invited Wu Xiang, Wu Sangui's father, out again and sent him to Shanhaiguan to sit in the town.

When he learned the news that Wu Xiang was leading the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan, he felt a little dizzy. He secretly sighed that he was playing tricks and sent Wu Sangui away, but Wu Xiang came. What he was most worried about was that Wu Xiang imitated his son in history and turned to surrender to Jiannu and became a traitor. As soon as the Shanhaiguan was opened, the army of Jiannu You can rush into the customs immediately.

Although he has ordered the left army to go to the Shanhaiguan area first to deploy defense, he also knows that the left army Yan Chongxi brought out of Shanxi with only about 15,000 troops, but he has to face ten times their Jiannu army. In addition, he sent Li Xin and Luo Li and Diao Zheng to lead the Zhonglu Army and Luo Li's troops. They rushed to Shanhaiguan day and night, but after all, it was nearly a thousand miles away, and they had to pass through countless areas controlled by the Ming army along the way. Did they have time to catch up?

Therefore, after Xiao Tianjian sent Luo Li, he was worried day and night. He was afraid that what he was most worried about would be staged again in Shanhaiguan. On the same time, he had to continue to lead troops to accelerate along the canal to the north, and constantly arrange the protection of the Grand Canal shipping along the way. His whole heart almost flew to Shanhaiguan.

Now suddenly Feng Weihan, Lu Xiangsheng and others sent the news, saying that they had tried to force Wu Xiang to surrender to Jiannu, so he could only defend the Shanhaiguan. And Wu Xiang expressed his attitude that he was willing to surrender to Xiao Tianjian as a minister in the future. This news made Xiao Tianjian happy on the spot. When he arrived in Cangzhou, he actually made a groundbreaking order. I drank a few glasses of wine to celebrate this exciting good news.

Then Xiao Tianjian sent someone to carry his imperial edict in the Cangzhou army, crossed the Ming army-controlled area day and night, rushed to Shanhaiguan, and secretly issued the edict to Wu Xiang.

In the imperial edict, Xiao Tianjian greatly praised Wu Xiang's sentiment of caring about the overall situation, and also sighed about Wu Sangui. He told Wu Xiang that he was very sorry for Wu Sangui's death and "admired" Wu Sangui Yunyun. He had already issued an edict to set up a monument for Wu Sangui. Please don't worry about it. There will be a dynasty in the future. After winning one day, Wu Xiang can move the remains of Wu Sangui back to their ancestral tomb of the Wu family and be buried separately. All the expenses required will be reimbursed, and Wu Xiang will be temporarily granted the position of deputy general of the second town. For the time being, he will be dispatched by Li Xin. When it can be made public, another decree will be announced to the world!

The vice president of Xing Tianjun's town is already a very high official position, and it is a real power position that holds military power. For Wu Xiang, he did not dare to think about it before. Now after receiving Xiao Tianjian's imperial edict, Wu Xiang feels like eating a reassurance pill, and his heart is completely put in his stomach. At least in the future, after the Dazhong Dynasty enters the Shuntian Mansion, the Wu family can still enjoy the glory, and it will not end up.

So Wu Xiang was grateful and hurriedly knelt down to accept the decree, carefully collected the imperial edict of the Dazhong Dynasty into his inner house, and took out a lot of money to reward the summoner who came to issue the decree.

The summoner looked at the plate of white official silver held out by Wu Xiang and couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of water, but replied with a smile, "Wu Junmen, this is the key! We don't like this in China! This snowflake silver is about to flash all the eyes under it! I'm willing to accept it, but I dare not accept it! Otherwise, I'm afraid that if you go back to the emperor, you will cut off your head!

You and I will be a minister in the same hall in the future. I would like to advise Wu Junmen. In the future, such etiquette can no longer be used! Otherwise, it will be unfavorable to Wu Junmen! The death of the Ming Dynasty was due to the corruption of officials. How can I follow in the footsteps of the Dazhong Dynasty? So this etiquette is absolutely impossible for us here!

That's all! When the task is finished, I won't delay again! I'm going to meet the other generals later. Say goodbye! These silvers are good. Wu Junmen might as well take them out to reward those meritorious soldiers! It's also a little dedicated to the battle of Shanhaiguan!"

After saying that, the summoner turned around to leave. Wu Xiang was so scared that he quickly asked someone to take back the silver and ran out to send them to the door in person, and then sent someone to secretly escort them out of the main city of Shanhaiguan.

Looking back, Wu Xiang couldn't help sighing that Xiao Tianjian was really strict in governing the country, and even the summoner did not dare to accept his silver gift, which showed that the Dazhong Dynasty was much more incorrupt than the officials of the Ming Dynasty. He didn't even eat a meal, so he left like this. It can be seen that the current one in the Ming government After that, he really couldn't eat it in the Dazhong Dynasty. Thinking about the style of the generals of the Dazhong Army he came into contact with during this period, he could only lament for the Ming Emperor and sigh that Zhu Youjian was really not born at the right time. Although he, the emperor, also worked hard, the officials below were already rotten. No matter how hard he worked as an emperor, There is no way to save the Ming Dynasty. It's time to change the surname of Xiao.

As for the death of his son Wu Sangui, although he was still uncomfortable in his heart, he could only comfort himself. Don't think too much. Who let him listen to the orders of the Ming court at that time? It's all his bad fate! What's more, Xiao Tianjian, the emperor of Dazhong, also said that in the future, he will be allowed to move his grave and be buried separately, and the Dazhong court will bear all the expenses, which is also the glory of Wu Sangui. This is also what his father won for him. He can only follow Xiao Tianjian in the future.

So after thinking about it, he sent someone to take out the plate of silver and the 1,000 taels of gold collected by Jiannu. Since he wants to do it, do it better. No one in the middle court knows that he has learned about Jiannu with 1,000 taels of gold. It's better to be the Lord now than to be caught in this matter in the future. Take it out and reward the soldiers and generals to use the money of Jiannu to reward the soldiers who killed the Tuanzi. This is really enjoyable! Wu Xiang felt sarcastic and ridiculous when she thought about it. This time, Jiannu completely lifted a stone and hit himself in the foot!

The next day, Wu Xiang raised his account and announced the matter of paying his own pocket to reward the meritorious soldiers. Suddenly, the generals under his command were all excited. They flattered Wu Xiang one after another, and immediately informed the generals of the three armies about this matter. However, it really boosted the morale of the Ming army generals, such as Shanhaiguan, a lot. Each of them worked hard to kill some more tari to get these bounties.

After the summons came out of Shanhaiguan, he immediately went to meet Yan Chongxi, Luo Li and others and told them that Shengshang Xiao Tianjian was speeding up to come this side. The action along the way was like a broken bamboo. They could get here as soon as possible. Please be sure to delay the construction. Slaves consume a lot of Jiannu's strength.

In a word, Xiao Tianjian gave them one order, that is, to fight to the end here, and never allow Jiannu to break the barrier.

Yan Chongxi and Luo Li immediately received the order, and immediately patted their chests to ensure that they would live up to the holy hope. Even if it was the last soldier, they would never give up the line of Shanhaiguan and make Jiannu enter the customs.
