Chapter 40 Hong Chengchou Seeking Death

When Hong Chengchou knew what he should do next, he even made preparations to marry another wife. After all, having only one son is far from enough for the future Hong clan.

For now, the reason why he is still here is for the soldiers who follow him, not for Emperor Chongzhen.

When one's ideas become simple, it is the time to do great things!

People like Zhang Ruolin have found him, a nearly perfect scapegoat, and are also relieved-no one wants to stay in Liaodong to face the establishment of slaves. This is the voice of every Da Ming soldier in Liaodong.

Since the start of the Battle of Saarhu until now, the Battle of Liaodong has been going on for more than 20 years. Nearly half a million good men of Ming Dynasty died here, but there is no hope of victory...Everyone is tired.

At this time, a new group of people should come to Liaodong to fight against building slaves, for example, Li Dingguo, who is about to move in Lantian City.

Hong Chengchou knew very well about the army led by Li Dingguo. After all, Yun Zhao had asked him for his opinion when the army was formed.

Therefore, although the army led by Li Dingguo is also an all-firearms army, their mules are highly horse-like, which in a certain sense solves the problem of the slowness of the all-firearms army.

Sometimes Hong Chengchou always thinks, if Li Dingguo is also assigned to his subordinates-the battle of Liaodong should be easy to fight.

He only needs to order this army to keep going forward, go forward, go forward...

The extremely sleepy Hong Chengchou woke up from his dream, and first listened to the movement outside, very good!

Jian Slave did not start to attack Xingshan Camp.

However, the feeling of loneliness quickly came to his mind, and he quickly called the old servant Hong Fu.

Soon, Hong Fu came in with a basin of water to wait for him to wash.

"Msang Gong, sleep for a while, it's Chen Shi, and it's raining outside again."

Hong Chengchou put down his towel and said, "Where are Chen Dong and the others?"

Hong Fu said: "Chen Dong is resting in the nearby camp, and the black-clothed leader Yun Ping is watching the night."

Hong Chengchou said: "Don't isolate our relatives."

Hong Fu smiled and said, "Liu Kuang lives on your right."

"Why didn't Jian Slave take advantage of the rain to attack?"

"General Wu said that Jiannu also ran for eighty miles in a day and a half, and they also need to rest."

Hong Chengchou looked at the armor on the shelf and sighed slightly: "I'm a Wenchen, and I spend far more time wearing armor than when wearing a robe."

Hong Fu said while helping Hong Chengchou to hold Jia Jia: "Lan Tian is like a fierce general. You don't need to wear armor after Xiang Gong, sitting in the political affairs hall will be able to rule the world."

Hong Chengchou smiled bitterly: "You think too much. Yun Zhao has spent such a high price on me. It is impossible for me to sit still in the political affairs hall. Yun Zhao's behavior of cutting southwest is already obvious. Just wait for me to go. Give him peace of mind."

Hong Fu smiled and said: "Xiangong is an extraordinary person, and it should be reused. As long as Xianggong sends these soldiers to Shanhaiguan safely, Xianggong should retreat.

When the time comes, the old slave will take the old lady and the second master back to Lantian County, leaving Hong Shou, an old dog to guard his home, and take care of the family's sea trade by the way.

After the world is peaceful, the prince will be an official in the court, the eldest son will be an official in the pass, and the second master will go back to his hometown to take care of the housework. Isn't our family stable? "

Hong Chengchou said in surprise: "You said our family's sea trade?"

Hong Fu graciously wiped off a mud pip on the armor with his sleeves and said with a smile: "The old slave bought a lot of land for his family in the past. Later, I heard that Lantian is not allowed to own a thousand acres of fertile land.

So I wrote to Hong Shou, asking him to sell the extra land at his family, collect some money, go to Sun Chuanting, buy two boats for the family, specialize in buying and selling silk, and exporting porcelain to overseas..."

Regarding Hong Fu and Hong Shou's two old family members, Hong Chengchou still extremely believed that it was these two old servants. If it weren't for these two old servants to run around these years, the Hong family would not have a good life.

After putting on the sword, Hong Chengchou left the handsome account. At this time, there were only a few angry lanterns swaying in the wind and rain like ghosts.

On the higher Diao Dou, two bright beams of light were alternately patrolling, scanning the open space outside Xingshan Castle.

This kind of spotlight was originally equipped in the Lantian army. A thick butter candle was placed inside, and a concave glass mirror was placed behind the candle. This way, there is a side that can not be afraid of wind and rain, but can shine bright light far away. Good stuff.

When Hong Chengchou returned yesterday, exhausted, he had not patrolled Xingshan well, so, accompanied by his generals, he began to patrol the camp.

At dawn, Hong Chengchou stepped on the muddy water to patrol Daying, but the light rain still did not stop.

Just when he was about to return to the handsome account to rest, the four soldiers hurriedly walked in from outside the camp carrying a simple stretcher. Hong Chengchou looked at it, and there was a sudden sound in his heart.

On the stretcher lies a young Da Ming soldier. His limbs are firmly nailed to the stretcher with wooden thorns. There is a wound on his ribs. The wound has been whitish by rain, and there is no trace of blood. .

Hong Chengchou probed his hand to feel the pulse of the young soldier. He had been dead for a long time.

In his arms, half of the greased paper bag was exposed, and the leader Liu Kuang took out the greased paper bag. After opening it, he handed a piece of silk filled with words to Hong Chengchou.

After reading the words on the silk, Hong Chengchou said to Liu Kuang, "Leaving the camp, there are seven siblings outside."

Liu Kuang hurried out with people, and within half an hour, he carried back seven simple stretchers.

The seven men were also watered by rain for one night, and the bodies of six of the soldiers were already stiff, and only one soldier was still working hard to open his eyes and breathe in pain.

"Supervisor, save me..."

The moment the soldier saw Hong Chengchou, his spirit seemed to relax, he called out in a low voice, his head tilted, and there was no sound.

There was a strange gurgling sound in Hong Chengchou’s throat. It seemed that there was a mouthful of sputum stuck in his throat, and he seemed to be talking to himself. In the end, a ray of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and two tears fell on him. On the messy beard.

He returned to Shuai Zhang, hurriedly wrote a letter on a piece of silk, and handed it to Liu Kuang, ordering him to tie the silk book to an arrow and send it to the camp of Jianzhou people.

Wu Sangui hurriedly entered the account, looked at the silk book in Liu Kuang's hand, and said to Hong Chengchou: "Supervisor, can the general take a look?"

Hong Chengchou nodded weakly. After Wu Sangui read it, he handed the silk book to Liu Kuang and whispered to Hong Chengchou: "Supervisor, it is not feasible to exchange gold and silver for the captured soldiers."

Hong Chengchou said solemnly: "Is there a better way?"

Wu Sangui said: "The superintendent has always been decisive, how come there is a woman's benevolence today?"

Hong Chengchou gritted his teeth and said, "If we don't save these people, no one will break the queen for us in the future."

Wu Sangui shook his head and said: "To be a soldier to eat food is to tie his head to the belt of his trousers for a living. If he is dead, he is considered dead. If caught alive, he is dead. You can't do harm to us who are alive for those who have already died. As long as you are a soldier, this truth does not need to be explained."

Hong Chengchou smiled bitterly and said, "How can I not understand what you are saying, but I just feel that it is hard to let go of not doing something."

Wu Sangui laughed and said, "Well, spending some money to buy peace of mind is also a way."

At noon, the light rain finally stopped.

A round of red sun hangs in the Tianshan Mountains as if washed in clear water.

Just fifty feet away from the walled city, the people of Jianzhou erected more than ten tall wooden frames there.

Dozens of bright people with a loud voice kept yelling in front of the formation.

"Hong Chengchou, surrender!"

"Hong Chengchou, you are going to die, don't hurt brothers!"

"Brothers of the Ming Army, we have surrounded Xingshan, hurry up and surrender!"

"Brother surrender, don't give your life to the officials, Hong Chengchou wrote to us this morning, wanting to sell you a good price..."

Wu Sangui glanced at the traitors who were constantly clamoring, and said directly to the gunners in the camp: "Fire!"

Immediately, the cannons on the head of the city blasted loudly, and none of the dozens of traitors had escaped. They stood so erect and raged into a pile of broken meat by the cannons.

Hong Chengchou put down the telescope in his hand and sighed, "These words are not what they shouted, but the people hiding in the ground."

Wu Sangui was silent.

Soon, the Jianzhou people outside the city began to laugh, their laughter was extremely arrogant.

Wu Sangui looked up at the red sun in the sky and said, "I'll go out of the city and fight for a while."

Hong Chengchou said: "That's a hit. The reason Jianu didn't attack overnight is actually waiting for them. At this time, they also have artillery. Once you get out of the city, you will be hit."

"In that case, why should we stay in Xingshan?"

Hong Chengchou said: "If we can't defeat the sharpness of building slaves, our retreat will be meaningless. Even if we retreat to Shanhaiguan, what is the difference with Xingshan?"

Wu Sangui said angrily: "Building a slave but not attacking!"

Hong Chengchou smiled and said: "You should go to rescue Cao Bianjiao."

Wu Sangui frowned and said, "Rescue Cao Bianjiao?"

Hong Chengchou smiled and said, "Go now, as long as I'm still in Xingshan, Jiannu will not chase you."

Wu Sangui said: "I'm leaving, there aren't many people under your command, Supervisor."

Hong Chengchou took a long breath and said: "Not only you have to go, but for all my subordinates, the father and son are in the army, the son will go with you, the brothers in the army, the younger brother will go with you, and the only son in the family will go with you."

Wu Sangui was taken aback and asked, "How does this make it?"

Hong Chengchou sighed and said, "I can't go back~www.wuxiahere.com~ Then fight to death in Xingshan."

"How does this make?"

"If Yang Guozhu can stay, why can't the official stay?"

"How does this make?"

"Make, make, Wu Sangui, I give you everyone who can give you, remember, guard Shanhaiguan, don't allow slaves to pass the customs, and guard Shanhaiguan, your future Wu Sangui will not be too bad anyway.

Can't hold Shanhaiguan pass-everything is gone! "
