Chapter 85
"That's right, General Zhang, since we've returned to Jinzhou, we're safe, and now we really want to hear about the situation in Dalinghe City!" Zhang Chun also nodded and said.

"Yes." After Zhang Cunren sat down, he said: "I am waiting to be ordered by the governor to sit in Dalinghe City. Hey, if Mr. Li hadn't sent a surprise army, I'm afraid none of us would be able to come back, even if we were not built. Killed by slaves, they will starve to death in the end." Everyone couldn't help but ahed, but soon realized that the food and grass in Dalinghe City had long been consumed without a trace.

"Your city is short of food, why can you support it until now?" Qiu Hejia was stunned, but asked again.

"We eat everything we can eat." Zhang Cunren seemed to have thought of something, his face turned pale, and his eyes were full of horror and despair.He said softly: "I am waiting for more than 8000 people, and there are more than [-] servants and merchants. In the end, there are only [-] soldiers and horses left in our army, and only a few civilians can survive. Only a thousand. The rest either died in battle, or, or."

"Hey! Don't say it." Sun Chengzong seemed to have thought of something, his face was pale, his withered right hand was tightly clenched, and he lowered his head, as if he was enduring great pain. In fact, not only Sun Chengzong knew about it. The most important thing is that other people can vaguely guess the problem here. Apart from the people who were killed, I am afraid that more people will be eaten by these Guan Ning cavalry.

Finally Zhang Cunren said: "Last night when I went to the military gate to see the chaos in the Jiannu camp, I thought it was our reinforcements arriving, so I led us to rush out so that we could cooperate with the reinforcements and wipe out Jiannu in one fell swoop. One of Nu Hongtai's plots was to lure us out so that we could be annihilated, hehe, but what I didn't expect was that Mr. Li had supernatural powers, and while using suspicious tactics, he defeated Jiannu in one fell swoop and saved us."

"Then where are the rest of the people now?" Sun Chengzong sighed, "I'm sorry for them and made them suffer. I will reward them heavily."

"They were rescued by Mr. Li, because Mr. Li had seized a large amount of food and grass from Jiannu, so they followed Mr. Li to Xishan." Zhang Cunren said with his head down.

Everyone sighed after hearing the words. I am afraid that it is not only because Li Xin has food, but more importantly, in Dalinghe City, these Guanning cavalry offended these peasants in order to eat people, which caused these peasants not to dare to eat. I stayed with the soldiers of Daming, so I left with Li Xin.

"Just now General Zhang said that this matter was thanks to Mr. Li's rescue. At the end, I don't know whether to ask or not to ask." At this time, a clear voice came, and everyone looked around, seeing that the man had just been promoted to guerrilla? Who is the general's Wu Sangui?

"I don't know what the Major General wants to ask?" Zhang Cunren frowned. He was obviously very displeased with Wu Sangui's question, but he had to agree. In fact, he didn't know Wu Sangui's panic at the moment. This time the credit came back, and the matter of killing Azig at the beginning may be exposed. He, Li Xin, would naturally be able to do it alone, but at that time, Li Xin was not the only one who saw this scene. It can't resist investigation at all.If the charge of pretending to be a military leader is really pursued, Wu Sangui will lose his skin even if he does not die.So in order to prevent this from happening, Li Xin absolutely cannot return to Jinzhou.

"Mr. Li is so brave, I don't know that he entered the Jiannu army alone and repelled Mrs. Hong?" Wu Sangui asked with a smile.

"It's not that Mr. Li is very brave, but it's impossible to defeat tens of thousands of troops by one person." Without thinking about it, Zhang Cunren said, "Mr. Li's army is extremely strong, and there are nearly a thousand cavalrymen among them." , there are more than a thousand infantrymen, and it takes more than 2000 soldiers and horses to drive the Jiannu back."

"More than 2000 troops? Tsk tsk. It's really powerful. Mr. Li can command 2000 troops in common clothes, oh, as a punishment. This is a big event in my Ming Dynasty!" Wu Sangui couldn't help but sneer: "It's just him What does it mean to lead the army in this capacity?"

"Young General Wu, what do you mean?" No matter how stupid Zhang Cunren was, he understood that Wu Sangui in front of him was slandering Li Xin, so he sneered and said, "Young General, I'm afraid you don't know! The construction of Dalinghe City was meritorious, so the military gate asked His Majesty to absolve Mr. Li of the crime, but Dalinghe City was trapped, and the memorial could not be passed on. Later, because Mr. Li was good at training soldiers, he let Mr. Li be strong and strong. Select the outstanding ones from among the civilian husbands for training. When the war came, Mr. Li was ordered by the army to break out of the siege, sit on the west mountain, and become a corner with Dalinghe City to harass the slave army. It can be said that The crimes mentioned simply do not exist." Wu Sangui was furious when he heard that, but he never thought that his uncle would make such a decision.In fact, it is no wonder that Zu Dashou, Zu Dashou gave this reason all over the place, just to share Li Xin's credit in a fair and honest manner, and never thought that his nephew would actually have a feud with Li Xin, thinking of using this person to slander Li Xin .But now after what Zhang Cunren said.Not only is Li Xin innocent, but he has made great contributions.

"In any case, it is a serious crime for Li Xin to recruit soldiers and horses as a criminal." Wu Xiang on the side naturally knew what his son meant, and at this time he also said: "If everyone in the world is like Li Xin, Didn’t our Daming fight everywhere? This kind of thing is unacceptable. Supervisor, the general thinks that Li Xin should be arrested, sent to the capital, and handed over to the third division for interrogation.”

"Hmph, General Wu, then go and arrest him now!" Qiu Hejia's expression was gloomy. On the one hand, he was dissatisfied with Li Xin's arbitrariness and not notifying himself earlier. On the other hand, it is aimed at the Wu family father and son. These two guys are not good guys. Not to mention how many soldiers and horses Li Xin has under his command, what if he gets angry and unites Jiannu to capture Daling River City? Even if he doesn't need to unite Jiannu to attack Dalinghe City directly, at that time, Daming Liaodong has another powerful force.

"However, Master Supervisor, although Li Xin's move is justifiable, it is not advisable." Song Wei also said: "Such a great achievement must be rewarded, but such a serious crime must be punished. The general will think that the supervisor My lord pardoned Li Xin's crimes with this great merit." Song Wei's light words seemed to resolve the dispute between the two, but in fact, it stripped Li Xin of his merits.Li Xin is still a commoner, and he has led two thousand elites, but he has no reputation and is still rebellious.This Song Wei was obviously on Wu Xiang's side.

"Hmph." Qiu Hejia's expression turned cold when he heard this.

"This matter is of great importance, and it is better for the emperor to deal with it!" Sun Chengzong couldn't decide for a while, although he personally wanted to reward Li Xin with this great achievement, but Wu Xiang and others said it made sense. Everyone is like Li Xin, how should the world deal with it?More importantly, Wu Xiang and others are in charge of the army, and Sun Chengzong still needs them in the upcoming battle.

"The last general will obey the order." Wu Xiang and the others hurriedly said, even Qiu Hejia had to accept the order.

"Haha! Now that Zujunmen and Li Xin have repelled Jiannu for the time being, Dalinghe City is not in danger for the time being. Governor Qiu, the food, grass and equipment must be transported to Dalinghe City as soon as possible, and there must be no more tragedies in Dalinghe City It's gone." Sun Chengzong told Qiu Hejia to say.

"I obey orders." Qiu Hejia thought for a while and asked again: "I don't know Li Xin's troops?"

"Li Xin's soldiers and horses are not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, how can they eat the food and grass of the court?" Wu Xiang said with a gloomy expression.Now that Qiu Hejia has been offended, he should offend him to death.He has soldiers in his hands, how could he be afraid of Qiu Hejia.

"This?" Sun Chengzong also looked embarrassed.Looking at Zhang Chun with help-seeking eyes.It has to be said that Wu Xiang, a military general, is different from ordinary generals, and he got things to the point.Li Xin's soldiers and horses are not owned by the Ministry of War, so of course they are not entitled to enjoy the food and grass of the imperial court.

"Master Superintendent, most of our army's food and grass are transported from the Central Plains now, and the food and grass are scarce when they reach Songshan. It is already difficult to supply our army. If we supply our friendly troops, it will be even more difficult." Zhang Chun showed a trace on his face. Come sadly.In order to supervise the army, he must go to Dalinghe City this time, so he needs Wu Xiang and others' troops to contribute, so there is nothing he can do about it.

"Okay!" Sun Chengzong became even more depressed. He believed that after this move, Li Xin would reject the court even more, and the sadness in his heart would be even worse. Such a talent was squeezed away just like this.He glanced at Qiu Hejia, but saw Qiu Hejia's face was gloomy, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and he felt even more helpless.

"Dalinghe City has to be defended. Jiannu was defeated this time, and our army just took advantage of the victory to pursue it. Zhang Chun immediately led [-] troops and went to Dalinghe City to deal with Mrs. Hong together. Hehe, if we can annihilate Mrs. Hong Under the Dalinghe City, you are all worthy ministers of my Ming Dynasty." Sun Chengzong laughed loudly, and everyone nodded.There were bursts of laughter from the entire White Tiger Hall, only Qiu Hejia's face was full of sarcasm.

After a while, Sun Chengzong discussed with everyone how to march, how to fight, and how to cooperate before the generals left the hall.For a moment, there were only Sun Chengzong, Qiu Hejia and Zhang Chun in the entire lobby, and all three of them sat there without speaking.

"Hey, it's a pity that such a young talent is excluded by us." Zhang Chun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I really don't know what kind of reaction Mr. Li will have when he gets the news."
