Wang Pu in the late Ming Dynasty

Wang Pu was far away behind the battle, and he drank sand and bean cakes, and his face could not hide a trace of tiredness.

"Just send them to death, damn it, gunpowder is very expensive. Wang Pu said distressedly.

"The thief army is not afraid of death, and it is indeed a difficult enemy, and adults should not underestimate the enemy. Lin Changxing admonished on the side, this battle was fought for three days and three nights, the thief army kept attacking the stone arch bridge that guarded the main road day and night, although the Shenjia battalion could always repel the thief army by virtue of the terrain, but the thief army did not talk about martial arts, and kept attacking and disturbing at night, everyone couldn't sleep well these three days, Lin Changxing's eye bubbles rose again, he was originally tall and thin, when he was besieged on that island by the East Captives in the past, he had already lost a lot of weight, and at this time the black long shoe rake face was red and swollen and protruding from the big eye bubbles, the shape was cool as black impermanence, especially terrifying.

"Hmm. Wang Pu is also very tired, but he is a little white face, the plate is thick, and he is only a little haggard, much better than Lin Changxing.

"Or just retreat, we don't need to fight with the thief army. Lin Changxing said with a bitter face, it was too painful to stay up all night like this.

"Wait a few more days, I feel like the thieves will run out of food. Wang Pu stretched his waist, and he didn't dare to remove his armor for several days, and his whole body was sore.

"But the thief army refuses to abandon the city, or we will send someone into the city again, and buy another internal response, so that he and the fortune teller will persuade the fox demon together. "

"One should be enough, and if there are more, it will not be kept secret. Wang Pu shook his head and sighed secretly in his heart: It seems that the fortune teller surnamed Cai is not a close confidant of the thief leader Bai Xiaoru, and this trick is a bit miscalculated.

"My lord, fortunately, I have repelled the thief army again. "Several horses rumbled, but the leader was Liu Yishan, with a festive face and a ruddy complexion.

Lin Changxing saw the cloth armor on his body, and snorted coldly, this is a batch of armor just sent by the imperial court, a total of thirty pairs, just one pair for each officer, no more, no less, it can be seen that the imperial court has figured out the inside story of the Shenjia battalion, the scene of the day is still in front of him, the supervisor Chen Mingxia after collecting all the military horses, will be on the stage one by one, call the officers up one by one, and give the armor with his own hands. There are also two pieces that he sang as emperor's imperial gifts, one for Wang Pu and one for Liu Yishan. Subsequently, when the whole army knelt down to thank him, the sound shook the sky, which showed that there were not a few loyal people, which was enough to worry.

Lin Changxing watched coldly at the time, his face was pale, and he could understand without thinking about it that the imperial court had used a poisonous plan, killing three soldiers with one peach, and letting Wang Pu's enemy Chen Mingxia use this plan in front of him, how poisonous the court was. After seeing Liu Yishan again, he realized that he was happy, and his eyes were quite eager for Chen Mingxia. He really broke out in a cold sweat for this muddy man at that time, and then looked at Wang Pu just with an indifferent expression, and he couldn't see his anger, so he thought that if this was a ruthless person who was moody, Liu Yishan would be dead. But in my memory, Wang Pu doesn't seem to be such a person, did he suddenly grow up? After observing in the past few days, Lin Changxing was even more confused, didn't Wang Pu really care about Liu Yishan's betrayal, why did he delay getting rid of Liu Yishan.

"My lord, I thought that the fire gun could retreat from the enemy, but it could not break the enemy. Those thieves can't fight and fight, retreat and refuse to retreat, hanging out of range every day, consuming ammunition in vain, can the five aluminum armored cavalry be used, just such a rabble. You can kill them with a single charge, and then cover them up again, which can make the enemy fearful. Liu Yishan never forgot the five pairs of stunning aluminum armor just sent from Yanmen, which were made by the craftsmen of Yanmen with a new hydraulic forging press after pressing the aluminum blocks into aluminum plates, and the aluminum shrimp shell armor was created with a hammer, which weighed only 20 catties, less than one-third of the iron shrimp shell armor.

"No, this kind of treasure is too expensive, and if you lose one of them, you will kill people, and if it is broken, there is no place to repair it. Wang Pu hurriedly shook his head and said: "Using such an expensive weapon to fight the thief army, you can think of it, a loser." "

"Yes, sir, you're right. After being reprimanded, Liu Yishan had no choice but to be aggrieved.

"The fox demon surnamed Bai here refuses to cooperate, she still has a lot of people, she is really not afraid of death, it is tricky, but what is even more tricky is the red lady, the nest was taken off by her, and the money is out this time. Wang Pu complained and said: "Damn, why didn't Lao Tzu go well, he was fucked by the imperial court, by the Dongyu Emperor Taiji, and by the thief of the Red Lady, and when Lao Tzu caught her in the future, he would definitely strip her clothes and parade the streets." "

Speaking of the Red Lady's sneak attack on Pinglu County, everyone was dumb and frustrated. This is an unprecedented big loss for the Shenjia Battalion, or a defeat to a mother-in-law, which is embarrassing.

"Catch, catch. Oops, my brain, obviously has eyebrows, but it's just a light bulb missing. Wang Pu slapped his head with the palm of his hand, but he still didn't know the point even though the head case crackled, so he had to sit down again and said, "The red lady is a woman." "

"Woman. Lin Changxing said.

"Woman. Liu Yishan also said.

"Bai Xiaoru is also a woman. Wang Pu said.

"No, she's not a woman, she's a thousand-year-old fox demon woman, a banshee. Liu Yishan shook his head like a rattle.

"Rounding off, it's also a woman. Wang Pucai didn't believe in any bullshit goblin, he was a modern person, and he wrinkled his eyebrows and said, "Two women." "

Lin Changxing and Liu Yishan looked at each other, so they had to reluctantly bow their heads and say in unison: "Two women." "

"Ah, Mingming, it's not like this in the book, I'm the protagonist of the crossing, then according to the routine in the book, these two women will fall in love with me. Rao is Wang Pu pulled his hair and scattered his buns, he didn't find the trick to become the protagonist of the crossing book, he only collapsed and said: "Obviously I'm so handsome." "

Lin Changxing and Liu Yishan almost vomited when they listened to it, what the hell, I have never seen such a brazen person. Lin Changxing was still considerate, and comforted: "My lord, your head is not sinking, whether it is hot or not, take care." While reaching out to touch Wang Pu's forehead, the soldiers behind Wang Pu snorted coldly and drank Lin Changxing back.

Wang Pu was in a daze, allowing Lin Changxing and Liu Yishan to

retreat separately, and sat for an unknown amount of time, until the sun set from the West Mountain, Hongxia dragged Wang Pu and the soldiers behind him out of a dozen long oblique shadows, and Li Changxing and Liu Yishan rushed down from the mountain camp.

"My lord, I have a letter from Jingshi. "

Wang Pu opened the letter, read it at a glance, and handed it to Lin Changxing, but said, "This is for me." "

Liu Yishan squinted his eyes and rubbed against Lin Changxing, Lin Changxing glanced at him, and asked Wang Pu, "What do you say?"

"Yang He has a lot of aura, I'm afraid I will be crushed by him. Wang Pu smiled bitterly and said that among the several bigwigs in the Ming Court he knew, Sun Chengzong did not mention it. Wang Zaijin is very righteous and a good person. Xu Guangqi is even more advanced and retreated with him, living and dying together. Only this Yang He is not angry and arrogant, Wang Pu never dares to be presumptuous in front of him, well-behaved and sensible.

"This letter ordered your Excellency to go to Daguang County to see Yang He on the 15th, this military council will not be a trap, Yuan Chonghuan's plan to kill Mao Wenlong. Lin Changxing asked, and Liu Yishan took the letter from Li Changxing's hand, but he couldn't understand the traditional characters, so he scratched his head.

"If it were someone else, I would definitely not go, and I would still call it sick, but Yang He seems to appreciate me a lot, and I can't help but give him face. Wang Pu hesitated and said: "After all, my marriage is all his Zhang Luo." "There is another one, if the person leading the soldiers shows a cowardly attitude, it is easy to attract the disdain of the soldiers, and it will be difficult to lead the soldiers in the future. Thinking of this, Wang Pu finally understood why many generals in the late Ming Dynasty were deceived by civilian officials to cut down, and repeatedly overturned the front car, not that these generals were stupid and did not know the danger, but in fact, it was difficult to ride a tiger, and for fear of attracting the contempt of his subordinates, he had to be a good man.

"This time and that time. Li Changxing said earnestly and persuasively: "The lord is in a critical situation, and he must be cautious. "

"Not really, not really. Wang Pu chattered, he recalled that it was recorded in the history books of later generations that it seemed that the commanders of the late Ming Dynasty, Yuan Chonghuan, Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou, all of them had killed the martial arts and would establish their power in the future, except for this Yang He.

"There are many eyes in the eyes of officials, and they can't guess it. "Liu Yishan used to be a small military household, and his life experience was in grass mustard, but he developed a very simple intuition.

"In that case, I will bring those five sets of aluminum armor, in case there is an ambush, wearing this set of aluminum armor, invulnerable, and then use the fire gun to open the way, it is not difficult to break out. "

"Bring all the cavalry, we don't need it here for the time being. Liu Yishan said again.

"Nonsense, how can there be no cavalry without cutting off the enemy's food and grass, I can just lead a team of cavalry. Wang Pudun denied.

"So, give each of you two horses, my lord, you can't have an accident. Liu Yishan said sincerely, Lin Changxing was stunned on the side, this fool is actually enlightened in vain today.

Wang Pu pondered for a while, then nodded, and did not shirk, although Yang He was good to him in the past, and there was no bad record of deceiving the generals in the history books, but the people's hearts are changeable and cannot be guarded against, so he pretended to be free and easy Ang Tianchang smiled and said: "Huang Taiji's 100,000 army can't help me, hahaha, you guys, make a fuss about a big fart." In fact, Wang Pu was also a little scared in his heart, but he was careful not to let people see it, otherwise how to lead the troops and how to serve the public in the future.

The next day, Wang Pu took one hundred and twenty horsemen to the north, Liu Yishan and Lin Changxing saw them off, looking at the distant shadows, Lin Changxing finally couldn't hold back the heart thorn that he had endured all night, and suddenly asked Liu Yishan beside him: "Do you know that it is very inappropriate to wear the imperial armor." "

"Yes, but you don't know, we don't care about that. "

"Why. Lin Changxing was puzzled and asked.

"Hehe, you don't bring troops, you don't know how powerful the system of the Shenjia Battalion is. Liu Yishan sneered unkindly: "I know you think I'm stupid, but I actually have calculations, our adults are really incomprehensible, and sometimes, I can't figure out what he says." "

"Calculation?" Lin Changxing asked.

"I want to know what the court is going to do, now I know. Liu Yishan said proudly: "The day before yesterday, the prison army came to me and said something. "

"That is the enemy of the king's temperance, and he has told you. "

"Ask who are my cronies in the army, and the emperor is ready to reward them. "

"So what do you say. "

"Of course, give him a few names, as he wants. Liu Yishan's expression was solemn, and Sen Han said: "Don't you think it's a coincidence, I sent that letter yesterday and called the adults to the military council." "

"Are you saying it's a trap? Lin Changxing was shocked and said, "You, you plan to betray your lord." "

"No, I'm going to save you. Liu Yishan snorted coldly: "The imperial court wants to harm the adults, but it is afraid that the Shenjia camp will mutin afterwards, so they want to ask me to hand over the list of cronies and find out my position." "

"It's a big deal, why are you hiding it from us? Lin Changxing's face was full of vigilance and asked.

"Because when I wanted to save the adult, I found an excuse to kill Chen Mingxia by the way, wouldn't it be wonderful to kill two birds with one stone. Liu Yishan said proudly.

"What do you want to do. "

"Wait a minute, you go and tell Zhao Xiao to find out the poisonous plan of the imperial court to harm the adults, do you understand? Zhao Xiao, this kid is the most impulsive, he must be going to make a big fuss, you also follow, see the right time, and encourage everyone to kill Chen Mingxia, and then go north to find the adult, the court is the first, and afterwards can only grit his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, dare not pursue it, and after this incident, our adults can blatantly disobey the call. "

"Liu Yishan, did you pretend to be stupid in the past. Lin Changxing frowned and doubted.

"I, I'm a stupid person, I can't figure out why Hongwu Taizu killed so many heroes, what happens to people like my lord in the future, will they kill me, it's just clumsy and self-existent, aren't you afraid. "

"Cut. Lin Changxing sneered: "Who can not be afraid, that is, the son of the Gu family is not afraid to hide far away, he has a choice, there is no need to follow the adult to take this road of destroying the nine clans at every turn, I am, I don't have a choice." "

Liu Yishan stared at Lin Changxing's sharp mouth and black face for a while, shook his head and sighed: "Our lord is already very good, he saved me, and he did not hesitate to offend the emperor." "

"Well, the lord Zhao Kuangyin, it's okay. Lin Changxing stopped, turned around, and went straight to the camp on the mountain.

"Is it like Zhao Kuangyin, that's really okay. Looking at Lin Changxing's dusty shadow, Liu Yishan smiled bitterly and followed.

The

barracks were stacked on top of each other, in good order, the soldiers were cooking, and the local squires had brought a lot of fruits and vegetables, and the food was really rich. Although it was a natural disaster for many years, there were still many peasant families around, and they were still hiding at home at the beginning and did not dare to come out, but when they saw that the Shenjia battalion did not kill people and set fires, they rushed over and sold firewood at the gate of the camp, and even the prostitutes in the city also ran over, openly playing signboards at the gate of the camp, and opened a skin and meat business, fearing that there were thieves among them who maliciously disturbed the morale of the army, and Gao Li was leading people to drive them away. The surroundings are full of the comfort of the countryside, and it is hard to imagine that there will be another fight after the meal, and the corpses will be everywhere.
