Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

"Continue to investigate, and report immediately if there is any news!"

Li Zicheng took a deep breath, looked at the official army camp outside the city, and there seemed to be a hint of madness in his eyes...

……

Chapter 295 You can die standing up, but you can't live on your knees!

Twilight has come.

The day-long siege battle had long since ended.

The siege battle is undoubtedly the most brutal war for the siege party.

Even with the sharpness of the Beijing army, with the thorough start of the siege battle, large-scale casualties will inevitably occur.

Although Li Xiu is extremely cold-blooded towards the enemy and extremely strict with the soldiers under his command, Li Xiu has always been extremely generous with the benefits he can give.

For example, Li Xiu is undoubtedly very dedicated to the training of military physicians.

Each regiment camp has a military medical department. In order to make up for the vacancy of doctors, Li Xiu also established a military medical bureau in the name of the five-army governor's office. A complete military medical system.

Under such a system, it also created a unique scene after every battle in the army.

Physicians with medicine boxes on their backs shuttled through the military camps to treat the wounded soldiers in the army.

After the treatment, a group of wounded soldiers were escorted to the wounded soldiers camp in the rear city to recuperate.

As usual, Li Xiu patrolled the army before returning to the main tent of the Chinese army.

Maps are still hanging high in the tent, the only thing that is different from before is the mountains of memorials on the table.

In fact, this large tent of the Chinese army is, to a certain extent, the real center of the Ming Dynasty.

Just like those emperors on horseback who rode their own horses in Qing history, all the military and political affairs in the world today will go with the army on horseback, and send them to the army for Li Xiu, the minister of the auxiliary country, to have a look.

Of course, except for the military affairs which are decided by Li Xiu, most of the political affairs are now handled by the court cabinet, and most of the sent copies are processed copies, which Li Xiu has to look over.

Staring at the mountain of playbooks, Li Xiu took off his saber and put it aside casually. Between his brows, the look of exhaustion was deeply rooted.

After being in a daze for a long time, Li Xiu slowly came back to his senses, picked up the strong tea that the guards had prepared on the table, drank it all in one gulp, and then turned his gaze to the mountain of notebooks on the table.

As the flames flickered, the reflections elongated infinitely. One after another military and political memorials were flipped through, and one military and political event after another came into view. The reading of the book is slowly changing.

"Duke Qin, grassland emergency report!"

Just as Li Xiu was flipping through the playbook in his hand, the curtain was suddenly lifted, and then a Jin Yiwei in a flying fish uniform rushed in.

Upon hearing these words, Li Xiu got up abruptly, stepped out a few steps, and walked directly to the half-kneeling Jin Yiwei, and took the sealed urgent report.

When the information in the letter came into view, and after confirming that it was not the news of Mongolia knocking on the side, Li Xiu's heart was slowly let go. However, after reading the urgent report sent from Lin Dan Khan's department, Between Li Xiu's eyebrows, there was also obvious suspicion.

"accepted?"

"Shouldn't be..."

The report in the letter undoubtedly originated from the envoys sent to Lin Dan Khan's tribe.

After increasing the reward, Lin Danhan agreed to send troops to Liaodong.

This seems to be great news, but what kind of person Lin Danhan is, this kind of decision is obviously not in line with Lin Danhan's behavior.

If it is said that Lin Danhan is afraid of the might of the Ming Dynasty, Li Xiu believes it, but it is obviously impossible to say that he is so afraid that he will be driven by the Ming Dynasty.

Not to mention, now that Daming has internal and external troubles, with Lin Danhan's old fox temper, not taking advantage of the fire to loot is the greatest compromise to the Ming's military prestige.

As for agreeing to send troops to Liaodong, it is tantamount to talking about it at night!

Not to mention, judging from all kinds of information, Hou Jin's sincerity is undoubtedly much stronger than that of Daming.

It's sending girls to marry, and it's sending money, food, and armaments.

And Daming...

Not to mention that Daming has always been tough to the outside world, Li Xiu himself can't accept the humility and groveling to the outside world!

Not to mention, for many things, precedents cannot be set!

Set a precedent, and future generations will have examples to follow, and they will be confident!

If there is no precedent, no one will risk the disgrace of the world!

Political correctness will be deeply rooted.

The Daming he held up could die standing up, but he could never live on his knees!

"What is this old fox's plan?"

Holding this urgent report, Li Xiu frowned. The result made him a little confused.

"Over there in Monan, is there any movement?"

Putting down the letter paper, Li Xiu looked at the Jin Yiwei who was kneeling in front of him and asked.

"Reporting to Duke Qin, Monan's side is still the same as before, and there is nothing unusual so far."

"Okay, the governor knows, you step back for now."

After finishing speaking, Li Xiu seemed to think of something, and then added: "Send all this information to Xu Feng?"

"The subordinates have already informed the people below that any information on the grassland will be backed up and sent to Governor Xu."

"Ah."

Li Xiu nodded, pondered for a moment, and said: "From now on, except for Jiangnan, all the information about Jin Yiwei will be sent to Xu Feng, the governor of the three sides."

"Subordinates obey!"

Li Xiu waved his hand, signaling the Jin Yiwei to back down, but subconsciously looked at the map hanging high in the tent.

"kill!"

"Come on!"

During this time of thinking, outside the tent, there was a sudden cry of killing, but it forcibly interrupted all Li Xiu's thoughts in an instant!

"Night raid?"

Li Xiu frowned, but he didn't have any emotional fluctuations. If the army he was in charge of was taken out by a night raid, it would be a matter of wild night.

"General, there are bandit cavalry attacking the main camp of the Chinese army at night!"

Soon, some generals rushed in and reported the situation to the generals.

"Attack the main camp of the Chinese army at night?"

Li Xiu frowned, obviously a little surprised.

"Yes, the bandit cavalry should have come along the banks of the Weishui River and directly raided the main village of the Chinese army!"

Li Xiu asked again: "Did the artillery position not be attacked at night?"

"Reporting to the general, there is currently no sign of any other battalions being attacked by the bandit army at night."

"Ah……"

Li Xiu chuckled, this is really a strange thing that happens every year, especially this year!

First came Lin Danhan's incomprehensible reply, and then Li Zicheng's night attack.

Night raids are a common thing in war, but even if they are attacked at night, shouldn't it be the artillery positions that are attacked by night, so that it is easier to achieve greater results?

The night attack on the main camp of his central army, is it because he thinks that he has transferred two battalions of troops, the strength of the troops has been greatly reduced, and the defense is empty, so he can come to capture the thief first and capture the king first?

Thinking up to this point, Li Xiu seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly froze.

"The troop strength has been greatly reduced...the defense is empty..."

These words were circling rapidly in his mind. At this moment, Li Xiu realized that he almost ignored a great opportunity to lure the enemy!

He mobilized two battalions of troops to Datong to guard against Mongolia. Naturally, it was impossible for Li Zicheng to know the reason.

Then, in Li Zicheng's view, what does this sudden transfer mean?

"Is this a test?"

Li Xiu murmured softly, but the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more obvious...

……

Chapter 296 Attacking and Defensive Switching

"kill!"

"Kill the thief!"

The night attack broke out extremely suddenly, but the Beijing army's response was also extremely orderly.

The army forged at the cost of a complete financial imbalance has withstood too much damage from Li Xiu, and night raids are just a small repertoire of the Beijing Army's daily drills.

The instinctive reaction that has been deeply imprinted in the memory of every soldier of the Beijing Army is enough to easily respond to this night attack.

The sudden night attack did not even break through the first line of defense, and was firmly blocked by the guarding soldiers who responded in time. The follow-up reinforcements also arrived quickly, turning this night attack into a complete and complete attack. Head to head.

However, for Li Xiu and Li Zicheng, what they cared about was not the outcome of the night attack, but the meaning behind the night attack.

"From the beginning to the end, Duke Qin never showed up?"

When the defeated soldiers return to the city, Li Zicheng's focus is on this point.

"Reporting to Commander-in-Chief, that is indeed the case, the last general observed it specially..."

"Okay, the commander-in-chief knows, you can step back for now!"

Li Zicheng's eyes flickered, looking at the little fire in the darkness, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

……

At this moment, outside Fufeng City, following Li Xiu's order, the artillery positions, which had never been moved since the beginning of this war, took action for the first time.

The cannons, led by mules and horses, turned around and were escorted by iron cavalry, quietly and completely submerged into the darkness. During this silence, hundreds of cannons were already missing from the artillery position. Mostly.

At the same time, a group of cavalry in the rear army Dazhai quietly left the camp, and finally disappeared into the vast darkness.

Early the next morning.

The war started again.

It was still the same routine, at the beginning it was covered by the firepower of the artillery. On the tower, Li Zicheng watched closely the artillery position that poured firepower, his brows were already tightly frowned.

The artillery of the government army... seems to have withdrawn a lot!

"Is it a strategy to lure the enemy? Or is something really wrong?"

Although the balance in his heart has tilted, Li Zicheng still struggles with his remaining rationality.

"Bet!"

"Damn, wealth and wealth are in danger!"

Li Zicheng gritted his teeth, cursed, and made a decision.

The temptation to gamble and win is too great!

As long as the official army is defeated, whether it is within the rebel army or to the whole world, Li Zicheng is enough to increase his prestige!Completely establish an absolute leadership position.

After all, everyone in the world knows that the Duke of Qin's first target in suppressing the rebellion was Li Zicheng!

I am afraid that in the eyes of the world, it is normal for Li Zicheng to lose, but if he wins, that is the talk of heaven and night!

Not to mention, the harvest of the defeat of the official army.

Fame and fortune are within easy reach!It's within reach!

……

The siege battle started for more than half an hour. In the past, the attack was the most violent, but today, the sound of Mingjin's retreat has already sounded.

Amid the sound of gold ringing, all the siege troops also retreated back to the camp in an orderly manner, only the artillery was still pouring firepower towards Fufeng City non-stop.

Although the war lasted only a few days, but now, Fufeng City is already dilapidated. Looking around, the city walls are full of hideous potholes. Most collapsed.

If it weren't for the guards and soldiers who were clearly visible on the tower, if they said that Fufeng was an abandoned city, some people would believe it.

"General! It has been arranged."

Li Xiu stared at Fufeng City in front of him, as if he had never heard of it. After a while, he seemed to come back to his senses, waved his hand, and signaled the general to retreat.

The artillery was still roaring, but after most of the artillery was withdrawn, the intensity of the firepower this time was undoubtedly much lower than before.
