Come to Daming with military supplies

"By the way, what are you going to do over there?" As soon as the voice changed, Yang Chendong's jaw slightly moved towards the south.

After the Security Bureau used a lot of manpower and material resources, a telegram came from Nanming Capital very soon. Although there was not enough evidence to prove it, all kinds of clues had pointed to Cao Qin, the son of Cao Jixiang, the chief eunuch.Just now Yang San reported this matter to the Sixth Young Master.

"Master, the following plans have been proposed, which are aimed at the ministers of Nanming, including Cao Jixiang himself. I think I can give it a try." Yang San said cautiously and tentatively.With the continuous expansion of the Yang family's influence, he has found that he is becoming more and more incomprehensible to his young master.

After hearing this, Yang Chendong grinned slightly, "Is it possible to return to the body in the same way? It seems feasible, but the success rate is too low. They will definitely take more precautions when such a thing happens. Doing so, people will not If it cannot be killed, it will also damage the strength of the elites of the Security Bureau, which is inappropriate."

Hearing that Yang Chendong was worrying about the lives of his brothers in the Security Bureau, Yang San thanked him and said, "Thank you, Master, for your concern, but why don't we do anything?"

"Well, that's a good suggestion." Yang Chendong suddenly laughed.

Hearing this remark, Yang San was stunned, he was just talking casually, but it seems that the sixth young master still takes this sentence seriously?

Seemingly seeing the hesitation on Yang San's face, Yang Chendong chuckled, "It's only when you raise it that you don't drop it, sometimes it will have the greatest deterrent effect."

As soon as this sentence came out, Yang San quickly nodded in relief, "Understood, the young master wants to hang a knife on their heads, but he just won't drop it, so that they will live in fear and anxiety every day." among."

"Correct answer." Yang Chendong finally laughed out loud.If it is really possible to kill a few ministers, the Security Bureau can do it by paying some price, but in this way, the matter seems to be over like this, isn't it too cheap for them.That's far better than doing nothing, attracting suspicion from the other party, and scaring them half to death.

"You don't have to kill people, but you can't do without actions, otherwise similar things will just be endless. How about this, you can send a telegram to my fourth brother and ask him to raise the price of Nanming merchants by five percentage points. Be warned." The laughter on Yang Chendong's face faded, and in exchange for a trace of anger under his calm expression.

Killed nine of his own fighters and severely injured Yang Si. The matter could not simply end like this.An increase of five percentage points is enough to cause headaches for those Nanming merchants. In this way, Chixian City can not only earn more silver taels, but also weaken Nanming's economic strength, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

When Yang Sanyi heard that the price of goods had been raised by five percentage points, he couldn't help feeling tense.It's a pleasure to do this, but the safety of Fourth Master Yang is going to make people worry?But before he could raise the question in his heart, Yang Chendong had already replied: "Don't worry, nothing will happen to my fourth brother. This time, after all, the other party did something wrong, so they won't get entangled in this matter. There is no other way to choose but to admit their debts obediently, if they are really bold enough to take action against my fourth brother, they will cut off all commercial channels into Nanming, and they will only cry at that time."

If you do something wrong, you must be prepared to admit punishment.If you make the same mistake again and again, you will be committing suicide.Yang Chendong can see this point, presumably the Emperor Yingzong of Nanming and his ministers can also see clearly.

Nanming is not peaceful now, and the territory is shrinking. Zhu Huixun, king of Minzhuang, and the others are eyeing the southwest. If they are smart, they will not provoke themselves, otherwise it will be tantamount to forcing the mercenaries to join forces with Zhu Huixun and the others.

......

In the New Year of [-] AD, Yang Chendong spent time in Yangjiazhuang.

Even though the assassination had just happened, Zhuang Zhong had already made preparations, and the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year was still very lively.A party that had been prepared for a long time even diluted the previous assassination turmoil and brought smiles to many people's faces.

Nine days later, that is, the ninth day of the first lunar month, Yang Chendong and his party left Yangjiazhuang and headed for Juyongguan from the outskirts of the capital.

There were also two hundred teachers and students from the Yang Family Academy, as well as the two wives and the seventh sister Yang Duo. It can be said that after leaving, the Yang Family Village was basically empty, except for the housekeeper Yang Neng who stayed to take care of the business. The servant Yang Liu stayed behind to deal with the connection with Nanming.

Except for the two wives in the family, Yang Chendong just took away the seventh sister Yang Duo who was already alone.The reason for this is that the other brothers and sisters have settled down here, and they can't just leave like Yang Duo.

Regarding the choices made by his brothers and sisters, Yang Chendong acquiesced.Perhaps if they stay, Beiming can feel more at ease.As for whether the relationship between the two parties will break down, whether they will attack these relatives, he is not too worried.How can I say that these family members have lived in the capital for many years, and they have a certain background, and their father is Yang Rong, so when they really do it, they must also consider two or three things.

What's more, with the help of Hu Wei, Xu Youzhen and others, the result of the matter must not be too bad. When that time comes, he will make arrangements in advance.Speaking of Xu Youzhen, since the sudden conversation that night, he has finally settled his position. No matter how much he dislikes the mercenary ship now, he has already boarded it after all, and he is absolutely unable to retreat. What I did was to think about how to make the boat travel farther. Solving this problem was a great achievement of this trip to the capital.

Not long after Yang Chendong and his party left the capital, another team quickly caught up.They first brushed past the Yang family's team, then overtook them and walked in the front.And this team is headed by Deng Qiang, the eunuch guarding Xuanfu.

During the negotiations between the two parties, it has been clearly stated that Dalu City will be handed over to Beiming. This is a kind of goodwill expressed by Yang Chendong, and it is also an explanation to the people of the world, that is, the mercenaries are actually fighting for the country and the world for Daming. Only by doing so, can the voice of the people's discussion gradually decrease. Only in this way, can Zhu Qiyu stabilize the court situation, concentrate on developing himself, and provide the mercenaries with a safe enough supply road.

Deng Qiang's team walked slowly ahead.It's really not slow, the Yang family's team brought too many things, and there are quite a few women in the team, so it is an extravagant hope to speed up.Fortunately, after the Chinese New Year, the weather has gradually warmed up, and there will be no frostbite on the road.

With Deng Qiang's team leading the way, the green light was given all the way, without any accidents, they passed Juyongguan and arrived at Xuanfu, which was already a month later.Speaking of which, Xuan Mansion is Deng Qiang's territory, and he hosted a banquet here, and Yang Chendong once again met Shi Wanshan, the commander of the Wanquandu Division.

Compared with the last time, Shi Wanshan's face this time was much more enthusiastic. After all, he had to be more or less scrupulous about the above's thoughts when he received the reception last time, but this time it was treated according to the order, and there was an atmosphere when talking between the two parties. It's also a lot easier.

In this meeting, Yang Chendong mentioned the life and status of the Han people. He pointed out bluntly that the Han people should be the most powerful nation in the world, and all other nations should serve the Han people. All managers who make people's lives miserable, and even cannot solve the problem of food and clothing, are waste materials and should be blamed by people all over the world.

Regarding Yang Chendong's words, Shi Wanshan just nodded with an apologetic smile.He is just a general who temporarily lives in the Xuan Mansion, and there are not many places where he can intervene in the lives of the people.But he still saw Yang Chendong's arrogance from these words, and even a thought flashed in his mind, it seems that such a person becoming the master of the Han people is also a kind of luck for the Han people.

Naturally, this kind of thought is just a flash. He is now the second-rank general of Beiming, and he has to work for others for his salary. This is the eternal truth.

Chapter 8 Nineteen

In Xuancheng, Yang Chendong only stayed for two days before leaving. Deng Qiang and Shi Wanshan came to Dalu City with everyone. When he saw Yang Chendong appearing in front of the team on a white dragon horse, he excitedly greeted him, and dismounted to salute when he was still far away, to express his respect and miss.

Riding on the horse, Yang Chendong first returned a military salute, then looked at Shi Wanshan and Deng Qiang who were accompanying him and said, "Let me introduce to you two, this is Lu Zhuo, the head of the Second Regiment of Mercenary Reinforcement, and he is a general."

"I have met Commander Lu." Deng Qiang and Shi Wanshan said with a look of admiration.

Lu Zhuo naturally clasped his fists in return.After the two parties met each other, Yang Chendong immediately said: "Okay, this is Talu City, and I will deliver it to you now. In the future, the food and grass needed by our mercenaries will be delivered through here, and I hope you two will give me convenience." , don’t make everyone unhappy, it’s not good to meet swords and soldiers.”

Yang Chendong still said the first words with a smile on his face, but when he said the latter, his expression became a bit serious, and he was completely different.

Shi Wanshan and Deng Qiang were shocked when they heard these words, but there was no expression on their faces, they just smiled and said: "Where, where, everyone is a family, a family."

"That's good. Sending you off for thousands of miles, there will be a farewell, let's say goodbye." Yang Chendong laughed and clamped his legs on the white dragon horse's belly slightly, and the crowd waited for the mighty You have already Pass through the uninhabited Dalu City and head straight for Shicheng.

Seeing Xiao Feng's Lengfeng Regiment and the Second Reinforced Cavalry Regiment guarding Yang Chendong's group far away, Shi Wanshan looked at his back and said with emotion, "Deng Gonggong, do you think this is letting the tiger go back to the mountain?"

"Forbidden." Deng Qiang said nervously as if his tail had been stepped on, then he looked around and found that no one was paying attention here, so he said in a low voice: "General Shi, there are some things that we little people can listen to." It's up to us, as long as we complete the errands assigned by the court."

"Okay, okay." Shi Wanshan pretended to be terrified and nodded repeatedly, but in his heart he confirmed the statement just now.Although he and Yang Chendong only met twice before and after, he just had a feeling that this person is extraordinary, if he doesn't restrain him, once he becomes powerful, he is afraid that he will turn into a dragon in a storm.

Besides, Yang Chendong, he didn't know what Wan Shishan would think of him, even if he knew, he wouldn't care. Instead, he was a little curious that it was Lu Zhuo who came to greet him, not Humang.The telegram that he wanted to come back had been sent back a few days earlier, and Humang should have come to greet him in person.

Could it be that something went wrong in Shicheng?Puzzled and perplexed, Yang Chendong asked Captain Lu Zhuo who came forward to greet him.

"Yes." Lu Zhuo nodded without hiding anything, and he didn't dare to lie in front of Yang Chendong. "Shortly after the new year, there was a movement in the northwest. The Mobei Mongolian Army suddenly sent troops to attack Yidu. The general Muren, who was defending the city there, was defeated and led his troops to evacuate. From then on, it became the territory of the Mobei Mongolian Army. But it is too close to our Shicheng City, only more than 200 miles away. The cavalry rushing forward will soon threaten our safety. Commander Hu was worried that there would be problems in the future, so he took advantage of the opponent's unstable foothold and dispatched The soldiers launched an attack there, and there was really no time to come to Dalu City to pick up the Sixth Young Master, so I arranged for me to come with the Second Cavalry Regiment."

"Take down Yidu?" Listening to Lu Zhuo's introduction, Yang Chendong nodded his head.If this is the case, it is absolutely impossible for others to get their hands on it. To paraphrase a common saying, how can others be allowed to sleep soundly next to the couch?

But the problem came up again. Now that everyone understands this problem, what does the Mobei Mongolian Department think?Since they knew that the mercenaries would not let it go, and would not allow them to get involved in the surrounding areas of Shicheng, why did they occupy that place?At this time, there is still snow on the grassland, which is not a good time for grazing. Even if it is, a small place near the capital should not let the Mobei Mongolian Department take such a big risk.

His intuition suddenly told Yang Chendong that something was out of the ordinary.Based on the idea that something abnormal is a demon, Yang Chendong's expression changed, and he said [567 Chinese] to Yang Er beside him, "Quick, immediately send a message to Shicheng to ask if Humang has dispatched troops, if not , let them pause."

Seeing the drastic change in Sixth Young Master's face, Yang Er quickly agreed, and then sent someone to send a telegram.And not long after, the telegram received a reply. Commander Hu had already led the army to set off three days ago, and by now he should have handed over the Mobei Mongolian Department.

"Speed ​​up the march and get back to Shicheng earlier." Yang Chendong who heard the news didn't talk, but took the initiative to speed up the forward speed.In view of Yang Chendong's performance, the others couldn't help but start to speed up.

Only half a day later, a new telegram was sent to Yang Chendong, and as expected, something happened.The telegram said that there was a trap in the capital city, and the mercenaries fell for it without warning, and the army suffered heavy losses. In the end, under the desperate efforts of the Tatar cavalry regiment led by Su He, they managed to fight their way out.Now they have fled back to Shicheng, and the pursuers approached outside Shicheng.

There is also a long list of losses at the bottom of the telegram.Looking at the introduction above, the independent division lost four battalions, the Tatar cavalry regiment lost more than half of the battle, and more than 500 people died.The three regiments just formed by the recruits also lost two regiments, about 4000 people. The worst thing was that the cavalry strengthened the first regiment. The whole regiment had 3000 and 500 people. In the end, only less than [-] people escaped. Among them, the second battalion commander Gao Dan Hua was killed in battle, and Deng Yu, the commander of the first battalion, was seriously injured.

Looking at the bloody numbers on the telegram, I finally figured out that the number of mercenary casualties this time was as high as [-], and the wounded were countless. Yang Chendong's face was gloomy and terrifying at this moment.After a full six or seven breaths, he suddenly raised his head and said fiercely: "The Second Strengthened Cavalry Regiment left two battalions to escort the wives back to Shicheng, and the remaining battalion took the wooden carriage to Xiao Feng's regiment. The long cold front group rushed to Shicheng with me."

The battle cost 300 people, and the wounded were countless. This was the heaviest casualty of the mercenary army since its establishment, and it was also considered a traumatic injury.But what is even more frightening is that Shicheng is now in danger. If the city is in danger, I am afraid that such a long time of hard work will be in vain. This is definitely not what Yang Chendong wants to see.After the order was issued, the carriage was dismantled into pieces of wood, on which sat a Leng Feng soldier holding the 1000th style.Fortunately, there is heavy snow on the road, and with the help of its strength, it is not difficult to pull it up.At present, there are 300 people in Xiao Feng's Cold Front Regiment, plus [-] people from a reinforced battalion in Ma Xiongshan, a total of [-] people are rushing towards Shicheng.

In Shicheng at this time, Humang looked haggard, and his face was very ugly.

He who has been with the young master for the longest time has always wanted to prove himself with his strength and tell others that he did not become the leader of the first division by virtue of his qualifications.To say that this kind of thinking is good, but because he was too thirsty and anxious, after seeing the change of owner of the capital city, which was only two hundred miles away, he didn't even wait for Yang Chendong to come and start using troops.

Or he didn't want to wait for the return of the sixth young master at all, he just wanted to fight a beautiful turnaround to prove himself.It's just that they never expected that they would return in a big defeat, with [-] soldiers killed and countless wounded, and Shicheng is now in danger of being besieged.

The scouts ahead had sent the news that the Mobei Mongolian army had arrived outside the city, but it was less than twenty miles away from the greenhouse plantation. The generals below were asking for instructions on what to do.

Although the Greenhouse Garden is only [-] mu of land, it is really nothing, but it was planted by the sixth young master, and the green vegetables that appeared in it once made the Mongolian people call God of War the messenger of Changshengtian. It was already a symbol, The symbolic significance is greater than the practical significance.

There must be no mistakes in such a place, otherwise, before the sixth young master reprimands him, Humang will not be able to pass the test in his heart. "Come here, call out the six musket battalions of the Independent Division, and the rest will guard the city. Even if I die in battle, you are not allowed to open the city gate and take a step out of Shicheng."
