Bright Spring

Zhu Gaoxu waited in panic, looking forward to the moment when the dice will be revealed...

That afternoon, Fuyi rushed across the river to the river. He seemed to see Zhu Gaoxu's banner and was shouting anxiously.After a while, a grain ship approached the opposite bank.

The knight crossed the Fuyi River by boat, came to the east bank, and ran straight towards the Chinese army.

Zhu Gaoxu also patted his horse and approached the man head-on.Not long after, I heard the knight shouting: "My lord, the governor of Shengdu will report!"

"Bring it up." Zhu Gaoxu said calmly.

He reined in his horse, got the lacquered letter, tore open the envelope and took out the paper to read.

Sheng Yong has ordered the entire army to retreat, and the main force of the King of Han's army, a total of 20 people, has begun to cross Zishui in the south this morning.Before this battle, it was suspected that Zhang Fu arrived in He Fu's army in time and completely changed He Fu's combat arrangement; Sheng Yong failed to completely defeat the enemy.

The following page outlines the results of the battle.More than 4 enemy troops were captured, and the casualties of He Fujun and the enemy's losses probably exceeded [-].

After reading it, Zhu Gaoxu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.This campaign failed to achieve the expected effect, Zhu Gaoxu was not happy, but after hearing the definite news, he finally let go of his heart.

He handed Sheng Yong's memorial to the generals around him for video transmission, hissed and said: "The result is not bad."

Chapter 522 Discuss merits and demerits

On October 20th, Sheng Yong's army and Qu Neng's army arrived at the coast of Fuyi River with more than 9 horsemen; they finally joined up with Zhu Gaoxu's nearly 30 people.After the main force of the King of Han's army finished concentrating their forces, the number was nearly 3!In addition, there were more than [-] prisoners.

More than a dozen pontoon bridges were built on the Fuyi River, and countless soldiers, horses, and vehicles crossed the river to the east bank like a long dragon.

There was a fishy smell in the air.The bottom of the river in winter was stirred by sand boats. In the past two days, some soldiers have been fishing. The fishy smell is still lingering in the north wind.

Zhu Gaoxu and a group of people sat on horseback and stood on the east bank, waiting for the generals who came to join them.

After waiting for a long time, I saw a group of people rushing to this side with whips, and a banner with the word "Sheng" fluttering in the wind.After a while, Sheng Yong, Qu Neng, Pingan, Wang Bin and other generals rushed over.

They got off their horses one after another and greeted Zhu Gaoxu with fists cupped. Zhu Gaoxu also returned the salute on horseback.Sheng Yong stepped forward first, cupped his hands and said: "The last general failed to cut off He Fujun, please forgive me!"

Zhu Gaoxu nodded noncommittally, and suddenly asked, "Do you smell fish?"

Everyone sniffed vigorously in cooperation and echoed one after another.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "In the past two days, the soldiers have caught some fish in the Fuyi River. Tonight, we will use the fish for cooking to clean up the dust for the generals."

The atmosphere immediately became relaxed, and Qu Neng said: "My lord loves to eat fish, everyone knows." Zhu Gaoxu emphasized solemnly: "I love to eat sea fish."

The generals smiled and said a few words.At this time, Sheng Yong clasped his fists again and said to Miao Jin who was behind Zhu Gaoxu: "I have seen the real Chi Yue."

Miao Jin was stunned for a moment, she would not make a sound when the King of Han was talking with the generals.At this time, Sheng Yong took the initiative to pay respects, and we were old friends. He had received Miao Jin in Wushan Taoyuan, Sheng Yong and others; at this time, she looked cold, but she also clasped her hands and said: "General Sheng, you are welcome."

Most of the soldiers in the army, whether they are generals or soldiers, regard Miao Jin as Zhu Gaoxu's concubine. When they see her, they should at most be polite and respectful, and will not talk to Miao Jin much.And Sheng Yong was obviously keenly aware of something, so he called Miao Jin a real person.

Miao Jin is wearing a Taoist priest's loose robe at this time, but she is not a monk by nature, no matter how she dresses, the skin on her face and neck and body contours have the charm of a woman.Although her expression was cold, after being startled for a moment, Zhu Gaoxu felt that her demeanor and behavior were more generous... Her identity really made her a bit difficult to show others, and she would rather be treated as a Taoist priest.

Zhu Gaoxu felt in his heart: Among the few generals present, the ability to fight is unknown; but if you want to say that the most sophisticated person is Sheng Yong.

"Go back to the Xingyuan of the Central Army, let's have a break with two cups of tea and wait for the dinner." Zhu Gaoxu said.

All the generals responded one after another.

So Zhu Gaoxu and others reined in their horses and turned around one after another, and the group ran to the village not far from the river bank.

People came to Zhongjun Xingyuan, a small courtyard with tile-roofed houses and earthen walls.Everyone walked into the main room and sat around a square table.Miaojin went to the kitchen to make tea herself.

In the past, those who brought tea and water were all Zhu Gaoxu's personal guards. Those guards have been inspected repeatedly by the Beisi of the Shouyu Mansion, which is more reassuring; but most of the former personal guards have been appointed to serve as hundreds of households in the surrendered army.The newly elected bodyguard recently had a short time by Zhu Gaoxu's side.

Zhu Gaoxu said he was coming back to rest, but the generals soon talked about military affairs.

Several generals who came back described the whole process of the Battle of Nanyue Township one after another.Sheng Yong said: "The first victory in this battle should be Wang Bazong! If Wang Bazong hadn't detoured to the east bank of the Yellow Back River in time, the time for Qu Dudu's men and horses to cross the river would have been delayed. In this way, the crusading army could still be able to survive in the end. Break through Zhang Fu's two lines of defense, but because you can't catch anyone by surprise, I'm afraid the number of people captured will not be too many, and the weakening of the enemy's army will be much different!"

"Hmm..." Zhu Gaoxu habitually made a sound and nodded.

Sheng Yong said again: "Qu Dudu was able to reach Zishui because of his skillful use of troops. Qu Dudu contributed a lot to allowing the conquest army to gather in a short period of time. Then came General Ping. The first battle between the two armies began with a horse battle. General Ping's cavalry was smaller than the enemy's, but he quickly broke through the enemy's cavalry..."

Zhu Gaoxu listened patiently, and responded with short voices from time to time.

At this time, Ping An said with a smile: "Wang 'Bazong' (emphasis), I told you that it was a great achievement, am I right? I told you to try to flatter me, but it took a few days, Mr. Wang There has been no movement, like a stubborn donkey! I was still muttering that people like you will suffer, but unexpectedly you ran to flatter Sheng Dudu, which is really impressive. That’s right! Sheng Dudu is the coach of this battle, he It's more useful to talk to you."

Wang Bin's dark|rough round face suddenly became richer in color. The look of wanting to be angry but unable to get angry is like having an itchy nose but not being able to sneeze.Zhu Gaoxu saw it and felt bad for him.

"I didn't flatter anyone!" Wang Bin said, "The prince asked me to be the general manager for a reason. I think it's good to be the general manager, so don't worry."

Pingan said unyieldingly, "Even if you secretly photographed it, would you admit it?"

Wang Bin became even more angry.

Zhu Gaoxu raised his hand to Ping An and said, "Forget it, just say a few words."

Qu Neng was still very serious, he talked and laughed casually, and he didn't talk nonsense.

Zhu Gaoxu and everyone else had finished talking, and then they started talking: "The first contribution in this battle should be Dudu Qu. Considering the overall situation of the Huguang Battle, Dudu Qu's decision-making is very holistic; Above all, Dudu Qu’s army took the risk of the whole army. It can be confirmed that Dudu Qu’s decision in Chenxi County directly affected the entire Huguang battle!”

Qu Neng hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "I dare not be the last general."

Zhu Gaoxu said: "This king discusses the matter as it stands, and never favors you...The second is Dudu Sheng. After Zhang Fu changed his strategy, our army failed to gather and wipe out He Fu's Ministry. We can't blame Dudu Sheng; They have achieved great results. When they finally decided to retreat, they were very thoughtful and calm.

The contribution to Ping An is not small. The cavalry has gained a huge advantage for the whole army on key battlefields with few enemies. "

At this time, Sheng Yong's face was a little relieved and grateful, and he hurriedly said: "The last general thanks the prince!"

Then Zhu Gaoxu turned his head to look at Wang Bin, and said, "As Dudu Sheng said, Wang Bin's breakthrough in a key place should have made great contributions. Before you disobeyed military orders and underestimated the enemy's wave of battle, because there were generals who pleaded for you, I will Let you be the commander-in-chief, so that you can take the crime and make meritorious service. Now the merits of this battle are enough to offset the crimes of Luorong County; this king has decided not to punish or reward you, and let you return to your post as the governor of the Han Palace."

Wang Bin hurriedly bowed and said: "The last general thank you for your kindness!"

A peaceful voice said: "The whip is for nothing."

Wang Bin tilted his head slightly, and gave Pingan a look: "My lord rewarded the medicine!"

"Ha, Wang Dudu is really interesting!" Ping An said.

Zhu Gaoxu said in a deep voice: "The previous merits and demerits are right and wrong, so far. The key is to win the battle in the end! Otherwise, these military achievements of all of you are not only useless, but war|criminal responsibility."

Everyone nodded one after another, and the main room was a bit quiet.

At this time, Miaojin came up with a wooden tray. Although she was serving tea and water, the generals all thanked her with courtesy.The atmosphere eased slightly.

"Bang!" Zhu Gaoxu slapped lightly on the map on the table, and Miao Jin glanced sideways in slight surprise.
