Chapter 278 The enemy cavalry has been defeated
Although Ye Xue was expressionless, she was a girl after all. Being able to win two battles in the army makes me feel a little proud. However, before she could be happy for a moment, something happened.
The man was a centurion in the army and gave his family name of Sha and Wushe. This man was still somewhat polite when he spoke, but his demeanor changed once the Yanling Sword was unsheathed.
The wild killing aura spread out, staring at Ye Xue, making her feel cold all over. Why fight? As soon as the knife was revealed, Ye Xue became frightened.
Seeing that the momentum was not right, Xie Chengan quickly called Ye Xue back. He personally picked up the stick that Su Mulan had given him and faced Sha Wushe.
This was given to me by Su Mulan last time I met a robber in Anlan County. He found this thing to be exquisite, stretchable and light, and loved it very much.
Su Mulan thought it was a bit heavy when she held it, so she didn't take it back when she saw that he liked it. She also had a lighter swinging stick.
Although Xie Chengan has good martial arts skills, he has never learned battlefield kung fu and is not good at military weapons. Usually I just practice bows and arrows and boxing. Since he got this stick, he started to think about how to use it.
One method can be applied to all methods, and boxing and kicking skills are originally transformed from battlefield killing skills. In the past two years, Xie Chengan has become quite proficient in playing with his stick when he has nothing to do.
Sha Wushe wins because he has experienced hundreds of battles and his sword skills are simple but practical. Xie Chengan was able to swing the stick hard and fast, and his fists and feet worked well together.
The two fought for more than ten times, and Xie Chengan gradually adapted to Sha Wushe's murderous aura, and became more and more comfortable in swinging the stick. After a few more fights, he took advantage of his knife being knocked open and kicked him over.
After all, it was a competition among the military. Although Sha Wushe still had some desperate tricks, he didn't dare to use them on Xie Chengan. After he was defeated, three more centurions came up to confront Xie Chengan.
After four battles in a row, Xie Chengan swung his stick in his hand to make him more and more anxious. Basically, the victory was determined by counting, and the victory was straightforward.
Money overwhelms the hands of slaves, but art overpowers the traveler. Four of the seven centurions were defeated, and no one in the army dared to challenge Xie Chengan. These centurions are all expected to take the lead in the charge, and all of them are brave.
They have all obeyed. How can ordinary soldiers dare to disobey the general's orders?
Xie Chengan used his strength to subdue the seven hundred cavalry, and then began to reorganize the army. Su Mulan secretly provided part of the wealth for him to reward the soldiers.
The so-called equal emphasis on kindness and power. In just ten days, the training of the Thousand Cavalry of the Shao Ma Camp was completed. The Minister of War, Yu Shangshu, came to inspect and was quite satisfied with Xie Chengan.
It was from this person that Xie Chengan and others learned that the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel was not promoted to the position of Minister Ning, but another Minister surnamed Wang.
Although Shilang Ning belonged to the civil service group, he had previously advocated moving the capital to avoid the enemy.
In accordance with the wishes of the Queen Mother, Master Yu respected the captured emperor as the Supreme Emperor, and then supported his younger brother, King Yin, as the new emperor. King Tan only wanted to be the Prince of Taiping, so he refused many times. Later, he was persuaded repeatedly by the ministers with great righteousness and reluctantly agreed.
The civil servants in North Korea and China are the most powerful, but they are divided into three factions. One faction advocated peace, another faction advocated war, and another faction advocated moving the capital.
The Zhuhe faction believed that although the foreign cavalry was sharp, the reason for their sudden southward movement was due to tribute, and they could use their wealth to appease their ambitions and redeem the emperor.
Those who moved the capital believed that the imperial court had lost all its elite troops, and that although the capital city was large, there were no troops to defend it. If the city was defeated, everything would be destroyed. It was better to move the capital and then mobilize the troops and plan the attack slowly.
The main war faction believed that although the elite army of the imperial court was defeated, the capital might not be insurmountable due to the danger of the mountain pass. Moreover, peace talks are useless. With this great victory for foreigners, their appetite will definitely increase.
As for moving the capital, the area north of the Yellow River is equivalent to being handed over to others, and it will inevitably repeat the mistakes of the previous Han dynasties.
Most of the Zhuhe faction are pedantic veterans with low official positions and the weakest voice. The faction that moved the capital was dominated by third- and fourth-grade officials headed by Ning Shilang, and they were quite powerful.
However, Mr. Yu from the main war faction angrily criticized the two factions and suggested that anyone who dared to move the capital to the new emperor should be killed!
These peace advocates and capital movers are inherently cowardly, and they feel less and less confident after being reprimanded by Master Yu. In the end, the general trend turned out to be that the main militant faction gained the upper hand.
The new emperor immediately appointed Mr. Yu as Minister of War and gave him full authority to take charge of the defense of the capital. Ning Shilang lost power, so Shangshu didn't even think about it. Although he kept his position as Shilang, he was not favored by the new emperor and was already marginalized.
Therefore, Xie Chengan's exceptional promotion to the position of Superintendent of Food and Tongzhi and his entry into the capital was neither Guo Xuan's revenge nor Ning Shilang's conspiracy. Guo Xuan died on the battlefield long ago, and Ning Shilang did not dare to speak in front of the new emperor.
Yu Shangshu's new official took office with three things in mind. First, they sent people to collect the defeated troops and the old and weak soldiers left in the capital, and then ordered the two guards to delay the foreign offensive to give the capital time to reorganize its defense.
In the end, they recruited grain, crops, officers and soldiers from all over the country and went to Beijing to serve the king!
It was also Yu Shangshu who accidentally saw Han Shouyue's memorial and discovered some of the political achievements of Xie Chengan, a small county magistrate.
The former Shangshu Guo Xuan’s home base was in Anlan, and his business was as good as iron, but he was overthrown by a new Jinshi! Continuously solved the murder case of the former magistrate, the Da'anliang Temple nest case, the murder case of Tong Juren, etc.
With Yu Shangshu's sophisticated eyesight, he guessed that this new scholar could reach such a high level in less than a year, so he was promoted to Beijing in an unusual way.
Yu Shangshu had already ordered people to pay attention and wait for Xie Chengan to come to Beijing to report to him as soon as possible. Therefore, when the grain and grass were delivered, Yu Shangshu happened to go on inspection. He had gone there on purpose, and it wasn't just a chance encounter.
Sure enough, before having an in-depth discussion with Xie Chengan, Yu Shangshu discovered the difference between the three hundred grain guards. Whose farmer brings murderous aura to his body? Where are the grain cubs with bow legs?
Bow legs are a problem that only occurs when riding horses for a long time. Two or three of them can be said to be a natural deformity. There is only one explanation for the one or two hundred bow-legged people. These people are from cavalry background.
Yu Shangshu naturally asked Xie Chengan for confirmation. Now that it had been seen, Xie Chengan did not dare to hide it. He bluntly said that these people were originally Mahu, but later became bandits when they could no longer survive.
After being recruited by Han Shou, the chief envoy of the province, he was recruited into the cavalry of Qianhu in Gaoyang Mountain. It was only later eliminated and dispersed. This time the food protection task was difficult, so Xie Chengan summoned them again.
Yu Shangshu was overjoyed and immediately appointed Xie Chenganwen to a military position to lead these people. Now the capital has gathered 200,000 troops, but what is most lacking is cavalry.
Just because of the great defeat in August, the imperial court's small cavalry army was completely wiped out. Not even a decent cavalry general could be found, so Mr. Yu could only temporarily capture Xie Chengan, a strong man.
Although this battle to defend the capital is mainly about defending the city. But with Xie Chengan's 300 cavalry as a base, and with reinforcements from all walks of life, we could at least have a thousand cavalry, which might come in handy later.
"Report——Zijing Pass has been lost. The enemy will arrive at the capital in a few days after taking the Emperor hostage."
While Yu Shangshu was talking to Xie Chengan, a military junior high school came to report, and everyone was shocked!
