Chapter 363 Volume C conveys great achievements and the crisis comes again
Shen Yixiu has been uneasy since he received the letter from his father.
No one would have thought that his father's colleague, Qiao Gong, who was also the right deputy censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, would propose marriage to the Feng family to his father, and he also made it clear that he was the head of the Feng family, Feng Ziying's father. I wrote a special letter from Yulin saying that I was going to propose marriage.
This news made Shen Yixiu suddenly enveloped in anxiety, and he did not even have a good year this year.
Perhaps the Feng family will come to propose marriage in the next year? This inexplicable mood mixed with expectation and worry about gains and losses made Shen Yixiu a little absent-minded in the past two months, which was even noticed by his younger brother.
The other news that came back directly made her feel nervous and worried.
Shen Zizheng didn't know that a relationship with an uncle was about to hang over him like a dark cloud. Moreover, the uncle was even younger than him, but he might have to call him brother-in-law.
At this time, he was still immersed in a sense of excitement and regret.
"Sister, there is good news from Ningxia's counter-rebellion. The officers and soldiers on the north route captured Lingzhou, defeated the rebels at Wuzhong Fort, and killed 8,000 enemies! The officers and soldiers on the south route fought fiercely with the rebels in half the city, and killed the enemy. There are more than 3,000 people, and it is expected that with the support of the champion reinforcements from Guyuan in the south, half of the city can be captured by the end of the month!"
Shen Zizheng walked into the room excitedly, waving the news excerpted from the Di newspaper in the academy, full of joy, "It seems that this rebellion will be completely suppressed before June!"
Shen Yixiu's heart trembled, and he stabilized his mind. He then brushed his hair and walked out of the wing pretending to be calm, "Second brother, the army has won a great victory again. I will listen to you all day long." It is said that the army on the northern front is unstoppable. It captured Yanchi half a month ago, recovered the Ningxia rear guard, and now it has captured Lingzhou. Is it close to regaining the entire territory?"
Shen Zizheng shook his head and sighed: "It seems it's not that simple. According to the "Military Observation" in the latest issue of "Internal Reference", they believe that after the Tatars on the grassland started to confront each other and reached a deadlock, Su Nang Taiji is no longer able to pose a threat to Shanxi and Yulin. The army in Yulin Town can attack freely, and the other 20,000 troops in Shanxi Town have also rushed to the front line. The rebels must have sensed the danger, so they fought and retreated. Ningxia Wei and Ningxia The Pinglu Station is still in the hands of the rebels, and the main force of the rebels has captured the entire Liangzhou Guard and Yongchang Guard in Gansu Town. The situation of Shandan Guard is now unknown, and I heard that Huo Luochi has also begun to invade the border in the West Sea. Threatening Xining Guard,..."
Being so dizzy by what his brother said, Shen Yixiu didn't have the heart to listen to these battle reports, and these battle reports have now almost become the most popular topic of current affairs discussed by students in Qingtan Academy and Chongzheng Academy. , and Shen Zizheng is undoubtedly the best among them.
"Second brother, is there any news about the group of people who went to the grassland as an envoy?" Shen Yixiu suppressed the shyness and worry in his heart and asked pretending not to care: "Isn't it that they have made great achievements and let the grassland do something for them? Was there a fight over the throne?"
"It didn't happen in terms of fighting, but the two big tribes that succeeded in fighting for the throne formed an alliance and confronted each other, so Su Nang Taiji no longer had the energy to threaten us, the Great Zhou Dynasty." Shen Zizheng completely ignored it. The point, grinned.
"No, I'm asking how the people who went on the mission are doing now?" Shen Yixiu wished he could pour cold water on his brother. It's none of your business if someone makes meritorious service in the war. You said it clearly and clearly. My sister asked you. question, but you haven’t grasped the point at all.
"Ah? Are you talking about Feng Keng and the others?" Shen Zizheng suddenly understood and shook his head: "There is no news yet. It is said that they may have bypassed Zhenyuan Pass and crossed the Yellow River from outside the Great Wall to Gansu Town."
Shen Zizheng is indeed not sure, because the news coming back from the front line is all about how the army defeated the rebels, how many were killed, how many were captured, where they were recovered, and how many people bothered to ask about these things. It is impossible for someone to report it I am specifically here to write about the whereabouts of such a group of messengers.
Not noticing that his sister's face suddenly darkened, Shen Zizheng said to himself: "This guy has become famous this time. He has successfully provoked civil strife among the Tatars, causing the entire three sides and even the two towns of Datong, Shanxi The pressure on them has been greatly reduced, so they can allocate more troops to counter the rebellion. It is said that the Ministry of War is discussing to record merit for their party. How come such a good thing is picked up by this guy? A **** does not do his job properly. He studied and compiled history, and even went on missions..."
Shen Yixiu was no longer interested in listening to his brother's chatter anymore, but he couldn't help it. As he turned around and left, he couldn't help but said: "Second brother, this is someone else's skill. If you have the ability, go ahead."
"Sister, what are you talking about? If I get married in the spring of the next year, I will still have to select common people, and I will not be able to do such meritorious deeds, but I may not be able to catch such a good opportunity. He When I come back from this trip, I'm afraid I'll have to be edited directly, which is equivalent to being ranked second in the class, and I'll have to study for another two years."
Shen Zizheng was still chattering, with a look of envy on his face, "Even if other Shuji scholars have studied for three years, they may not be able to teach an editor. Most of them have to review. Look at him, and he will let him do it all at once. The common men in this department have been eclipsed."
Shen Yixiu had already walked away. From the beginning to the end, Shen Zizheng never understood why his sister was suddenly in a bad mood, and she didn't look generally angry.
Feng Ziying didn’t have much regret about coming to the grassland. Although he experienced an unexpected encounter with horse thieves and a subsequent pursuit by Su Nang cavalry, it was indeed an accident. After arriving at the place where Harawu Subu Shitu was stationed, he actually It's safe.
Whether it is the fortune-telling rabbit, the five-way general, the rabbit, or the monk, they all hope to get what they want from Dazhou, so they are safe and their own special identity It makes these people even more interested.
Even if Su Nang Taiji's army comes to fight, the result will not be seen in a short time, and Feng Ziying does not think that Su Nang Taiji will be so unwise that he will easily fight against the Bushi Tu Taiji soldiers. When the blades meet, it will only make Da Zhou smile from ear to ear.
However, the fortune teller gathered all the five soldiers together with the rabbit and the monk, which undoubtedly posed a great threat to Su Nang Taiji, especially its elite reorganization and the tribes coming from the West Sea one after another. , which forced Su Nang Taiji to take this matter seriously.
Under such circumstances, he had long forgotten the rebellion in Ningxia. It was a matter for the Han people, and traitors on the grasslands such as Kuaibai had never been seen by him. What he needed to deal with was The competition between Shitu and Tumote Khan and King Shunyi.
When Su Nang's army gathered to confront the Bushitu tribes, Feng Ziying and others had already stayed at the Halawu Subushitu garrison for a month.
The tribes of Bushitu fulfilled their promise in the first step. The troops of Wulu Duer, Zhulitu and Zaiseng were all moving closer to Hala Wu. Su Nang felt the pressure and began to move his troops northward. Yulin The pressure on the border walls of Shanxi, Shanxi, and Datong suddenly decreased, and only then did the main force led by You Shigong feel confident to advance westward and fight.
Feng Ziying regrets that she hastily came to Zhangye, a town in Gansu.
He knew that Gansu Town was in bad shape, but he did not expect it to be so bad. They lost the Liangzhou Guard and the Yongchang Guard. When they entered Zhangye, the Shandan Guard was still in the hands of the town army, but within seven days Except for the guard post on the side wall of Shandan Guard, which was still in the hands of the army, the hinterland of Shandan Guard, from Huazhai Fort to Fengchengpu to Xinheyi, was almost completely lost. The army fought all the way to Zhangye City.
Feng Ziying, Zhang Jin and even Feng Zuo looked at each other in confusion.
He had just entered Zhangye City and had only slept for two nights. He didn't even see Ma Xia, the deputy commander-in-chief of Gansu Town, and it turned out like this.
Although it is a bit far from the grazing land of Halawu Subu Shitu to Gansu Town, this line is basically within the sphere of influence of Bu Shitu and Wulu Du'er, and even some horse thieves do not dare to provoke them. In order to avoid another accident, these two people, and Bu Shitu, specially sent his own cavalry to **** them. In more than ten days, they bypassed the Zhenfan Guards, which was co-administered by the rebels, from the south of Bai Dinh Hai. From the south of Yibula Mountain, follow the Shuimochuan River and enter Gansu Town from Shandanwei.
Unexpectedly, I stepped into Shandanwei with my front foot. I only heard about the fall of Yongchangwei. As a result, I left Shandanwei with my back foot and lost Huazhaibao, the key point in the hinterland of Shandanwei.
When going to the grassland, Chai Ge and Yang He told Feng Ziying another task. If the trip to the grassland goes well, then if there is a chance, they can detour from outside the Great Wall to Gansu Town, which is equivalent to appointing two coaches to oversee the army in Gansu. Over there in town, let’s learn about the situation by the way.
Because after the complete fall of Ningxia Town, news from the entire Gansu Town was almost cut off. The news from Xining Wei was scattered and trivial. It was not known what happened at Liangzhou Wei and Zhuang Langwei.
The Chief Soldier of Gansu Town has always been vacant. The previous Chief Soldier died of illness in November. It was originally expected that the new Chief Soldier would be appointed after the year, but he never thought that he would be caught up in this incident.
Seeing the chaotic situation, Feng Ziying was also a little busy. Although Zhang Jin was a Longjing Wei Qianhu, he still had no experience in such matters, but Feng Zuo frowned and remained silent.
“Uncle Zuo, what should I do?”
"Brother Keng, either we leave the city from the west gate immediately. It is estimated that the rebels have just arrived at the city and are not yet able to siege the city. Let's go to Suzhou." Feng Zuo said with a wry smile: "But that's a bit far, next to Jiayuguan and Turpan, I don’t know what the situation is like there, maybe the Mughals will come and take advantage of the situation.”
“Or…” Feng Ziying hesitated.
"Or you can find the chief in the city and organize a defense." Feng Zuo said brazenly: "The rebels fought from Ningxia Guard to here. I don't know how Yongchang Guard was lost, but Shandan Guard was lost very strangely, and The Shandan Guard Station has not been lost yet. I think these rebels have reached their limit as far as they can reach here. They came here for the food and grass supplies..."
It’s a little late, please support!
