Wang Yangming naturally heard Shen Buyi's words, and Shen Guang's reaction was also seen in Wang Yangming's eyes.
To be honest, Wang Yangming was not very happy for Shen Buji, the Minister of War, to come with him.
It's just that many officials in the court had no confidence that the emperor ordered his governor-general to fight against the Tatars. Therefore, Shen Buyi, who was known to be familiar with military books and had unparalleled military skills and strategies, was promoted by the civil servants and became him. The deputy to the Grand Governor.
Wang Yangming also did not expect that Shen Buyi would question Shen Guang. Based on his understanding of Shen Guang, it goes without saying that Shen Guang's move was definitely to demonstrate to Cao Xiong and other generals.
To be precise, Shen Buyi wanted to use his identity to suppress Cao Xiong and others, and then take over the command of the army from Cao Xiong and others.
Although looking at the overall situation, there is nothing wrong with Shen Buyi's purpose.
After all, if you want to fight against the Tatars, you must gather all the forces on the front line. If you cannot control all the troops and horses, I am afraid that no one can be the commander-in-chief of the three armies.
Even if Shen Buyi doesn't do it, Wang Yangming will consider how to get Cao Xiong's support. But if it were Wang Yangming, he would not use force like Shen Buyi did, and even force Cao Xiong to do it in the end. He took over the military power from others.
Wang Yangming, who had these thoughts flashing through his mind, glanced at Shen Buyi and shook his head: "Wen Fang, General Cao, as the general soldier of a town, naturally puts military affairs first on this occasion, so how can he leave his post without authorization? ."
I was originally worried that Wang Yangming would also insist on the issue of Cao Xiong not coming to greet him in person, but I didn't expect that Wang Yangming would be so reasonable and even explain to Cao Xiong.
Naturally, Shen Guang became somewhat fond of Wang Yangming, the coach of the army.
Taking a deep breath, Shen Guang saluted Wang Yangming and said: "It's not that the General of the Army refused to come, it's actually the Tatars who raided the mighty general's headquarters. My Lord of the Army is now sitting on the front line to guard against the Tatars." Raid..."
Before Shen Guang could finish his words, Wang Yangming stroked his beard and said with a smile: "General Cao attaches great importance to the overall situation. This is my duty as a general of the Ming Dynasty. What does Wen Fang think?"
As he spoke, Wang Yangming's eyes fell on Shen Buyi, who looked rather unkind.
Shen Buyi glanced at Shen Guang indifferently, cupped his hands towards Wang Yangming and said, "Since the Governor said so, I naturally have nothing to say."
Wang Yangming said to Shen Guang: "Shen Shen will lead the way."
When Wang Yangming's 20,000 lightly-armed troops approached Luming Town, they saw the temporary earthen wall from a distance.
Shen Buyi looked at the simple earthen wall and said with a bit of surprise and disdain on his face: "To actually try to resist the Tatars with this, this is simply irresponsible to our Ming soldiers..."
As he spoke, Shen Buyi said to Shen Guang: "Is this the defense line built by the mighty general?"
After hearing Shen Buyi's words, Shen Guang's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Shen Buyi with a hint of displeasure.
Although the earthen wall in front of me does look a bit crude, it is a bit too much to say that this earthen wall cannot resist the Tatars.
Didn't they rely on the first earth wall to delay the Tatar attack? They even counterattacked the Tatars under the leadership of Li Huan. Even ten thousand Tatar officials were lost in front of this earth wall. life.
But when it comes to Shen Buyi, an official from the imperial court, it sounds like he wants to accuse him.
However, Shen Guang did not react excessively. He just glanced at Shen Buyi and said, "Yes, this is exactly the defense ordered by the mighty general, and we and other soldiers have tried our best to build a defense."
Shen Buyi sneered and said: "You are really playing the piano randomly. It's not like there is no city nearby. You can hide in the city, but you have to build some earth wall in this wilderness. I have to impeach the mighty general to your majesty." No way, I cannot leave the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty to the hands of a person like Li Huan who is not familiar with military matters."
Li Huan would charge forward in every battle, leading them to repel the Tatars, and even captured a Tatar Ten Thousand Households official. Especially Li Huan's invincible figure was branded on Shen Guang and other Ming soldiers. 's heart.
It can be said that these soldiers regarded Li Huan as a war god. Now Shen Buyi actually questioned Li Huan in front of Shen Guang and others, and even wanted to impeach Li Huan. Shen Guang and others looked at Shen Buyi naturally. It became quite bad.
Some of the soldiers who had followed Li Huan in the counterattack against the Tatars and killed the Tatars with their own hands were now staring at Shen Buyi, subconsciously clenching the weapons in their hands, and a faint aura of murder filled the air.
Wang Yangming and other figures on the side, just by looking at the reactions of Shen Guang and the soldiers under Shen Guang's command, one can know Li Huan's status in the minds of these people.
Shen Guang glanced at Shen Buji coldly and said: "Master Shen is probably going to be disappointed. Just by relying on this earth wall and under the leadership of the mighty general, we not only repelled the Tatars. The charge even killed a Tatar official of ten thousand households, and annihilated more than four thousand Tatars in one battle..."
As soon as Shen Guang said these words, he sneered again and again. Shen Busuo, who was looking at the earthen wall in the distance with disdain, was thinking that he would have to prepare a memorial to impeach Li Huan later.
Suddenly after listening to Shen Guang's words, Shen Buyi said sharply, almost as a conditioned reflex: "Impossible, just with this earth wall that is only one person high, you actually want to stop the Tatars. It's a joke. What's the matter?" Dare to annihilate thousands of Tatars, let alone a mighty general who kills good people and takes credit for so-called military glory..."
At this time, Wang Yangming snorted coldly and said: "Shen Buyi, shut up, do you know what you are talking about? You are lying and falsely accusing the superior officer. Do you know what the crime is?"
Wang Yangming's angry shouts brought Shen Buyi back to his senses. His expression froze, and then his eyes shrank, and he felt a little scared in his heart.
But he had forgotten that Li Huan's rank and official position were higher than his. Without real evidence, his words could not be said randomly. If he was not careful, he would be accused of slandering the superior.
When looking at Wang Yangming, Shen Buyi saw Wang Yangming staring at him with an unhappy expression.
This made Shen Bujie immediately realize that there had been rumors in the court that Wang Yangming and Li Huan were basically in the same group, and they were each other's accomplices.
It's just that Wang Yangming was a great scholar and a cabinet minister. Over time, many officials in the court subconsciously ignored the relationship between Wang Yangming and Li Huan.
Shen Buyi ignored this point and subconsciously regarded Wang Yangming as a like-minded person, so he criticized Li Huan so unscrupulously.
Now Wang Yangming's reaction made Shen Buyi suddenly realize that Wang Yangming and Li Huan were the same party, and his momentum suddenly weakened.
However, Shen Buyi was also the emperor's deputy commander after all. Although Wang Yangming was able to overpower him, Shen Buyi did not have no allies.
There were quite a few officials who came with Wang Yangming this time, and quite a few of them were Shen Buyi's close friends.
Shen Buyi's actions from beginning to end were just a manifestation of the will of this group of people. These people were very hostile to Li Huan and even planned how to sideline Wang Yangming and usurp the power to command the army.
At this moment, seeing Wang Yangming reprimanding Shen Buyi, one of the officials who had been silent until now stepped forward and bowed his hand to Wang Yangming and said: "Sir, Master Shen is just worried about the frontline military affairs. He is not targeting Wei Wu.
General, please take a closer look."
Several other officials also began to plead for Shen Buwei.
Wang Yangming originally wanted to hit Shen Buyi, but now seeing that Shen Buyi's arrogance was suppressed, he didn't say anything more.
At this moment, a group of people was seen rushing over, and the leader was a general in armor. Just by looking at the banner with the word Cao, he knew that the person coming must be Cao Xiong, the chief military officer of Ningxia.
Twenty thousand troops arrived, and the momentum was naturally huge. How could Cao Xiong and others not notice it.
Cao Xiong strode forward, saluted Wang Yangming and said, "Ningxia Commander-in-Chief Cao Xiong pays homage to Governor Wang."
Wang Yangming only glanced at Cao Xiong and nodded slightly, with a smile on his face. He stepped forward to support Cao Xiong and said, "General Cao has worked hard to kill enemies for the country. It can be said that he has made great achievements, but the governor came a little late."
Already."
Cao Xiong heard this and said hurriedly: "What did the governor say? This is just the duty of a junior general. Besides, if you really want to kill enemies for the country and achieve great results through hard work, you should be a general."
Hearing Cao Xiong mention Li Huan, everyone couldn't help but look at Cao Xiong. Wang Yangming looked at Cao Xiong with a straight face and said: "General Cao, I heard what General Shen said, the Tatars raided the mighty general's headquarters.
I wonder how the war between the two sides is going now?"
Cao Xiong straightened his expression and said solemnly: "Not long ago, a sentinel came to report that the general led the army and charged forward. He personally led his troops into the army and was fighting with the Tatars."
Hearing what Cao Xiong said, many officials frowned.
As the commander-in-chief of an army, instead of sitting in charge of the central army, he rushes forward like a small soldier. This is not bravery, but a failure to understand the overall situation.
Shen Buyi even sneered and said with a bit of disdain: "General Li is really a tiger general on the battlefield."
Anyone who is not a fool can understand that Shen Buyi's words are not words of praise, but a secret sarcasm that Li Huan is just a brainless and reckless man, and at most he can be a reckless general who charges into battle.
Wang Yangming seemed to have not heard Shen Buyi's words and said solemnly: "Where did the general fight with the Tatars?"
Cao Xiong pointed to the side of the earthen wall and said, "It's almost a few miles away. I could hear shouts of killing before, but for some reason, I can't hear them now."
Wang Yangming frowned and said, "Didn't the sentinel come to report?"
Cao Xiong also showed some doubts on his face and said: "General, I also feel strange. Normally, the sentinels sent by General should be back by now, but no one has come back after so long."
When Wang Yangming heard this, he looked at Cao Xiong and said, "The sentinel has not returned. Didn't General Cao send another person to investigate?"
Hearing Wang Yangming's concern, Cao Xiong naturally knew why Wang Yangming reacted like this. It was obvious that Wang Yangming believed that he was not a qualified general.
However, Cao Xiong was not angry, but rather felt a little relieved. Wang Yangming was able to realize the importance of sentinels, which at least meant that Wang Yangming was not the kind of nerd who was not familiar with the military as he was worried about.
Taking a deep breath, Cao Xiong quickly explained: "The Governor misunderstood. The sentinel did not rush back in time. The general has already sent several waves of troops to inquire about the news. If nothing unexpected happens, it will not be possible at this time."
It’s time for news to come back.”
After hearing what Cao Xiong said, Wang Yangming nodded slightly.
The group of people entered this simple fortress, and many of the 20,000 troops who had arrived in a hurry were sitting there to rest tiredly.
Wang Yangming, Cao Xiong and others appeared in front of the first earth wall.
Most of the first earth wall has collapsed due to Tatar damage.
But only one day has passed, and traces of yesterday's battle are still there. Even after the Tatars retreated, Li Huan ordered the corpses of the Tatars and the corpses of the Ming army soldiers who died in the battle to be sorted out.
However, the destruction caused by the battle between the two sides, the blood stains left by thousands of Tatars killed in the battle, and even the severed arms and limbs of many Tatars who were blown up by Li Huan were scattered everywhere.
In such a short period of time, it was good that the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were able to clean up the corpses of both sides. As for the broken arms and limbs, they really had not been cleaned up.
So if you look around, you can see some broken arms and limbs.
Accompanied by Cao Xiong, Wang Yangming walked silently behind the collapsed earth wall, looking at the traces after the battle.
As for Shen Buyi and some other officials, they also followed behind. Looking at the collapsed earth wall, they had such expressions on their faces. Some even smiled at the corners of their mouths, thinking of using this earth wall to write an article to impeach Li Huan immediately.
The memorial came out.
Suddenly, his feet went soft, and an official swayed and subconsciously fell to the ground. He pressed his hand on something, which was soft and sticky. The official subconsciously grabbed it and looked over.
This was an incredible sight, and immediately afterwards I heard a shrill scream: "Help!"
Chen Qi rolled and crawled, one hand covered in blood, her face full of horror, and her speed was simply jaw-dropping.
Everyone was also startled by Chen Qi's sudden scream. They all looked around and saw that the place where Chen Qi fell just now was a collapsed earth wall, and a section of the collapsed earth wall could be vaguely seen.
A bloody corpse.
Just now, Chen Qi stepped on the corpse, her body fell limp, and she pressed her hand on the bloody corpse. The result can be imagined.
Not just Chen Qi, in addition to the generals who had long been accustomed to seeing various bloody scenes on the battlefield, many officials who came with Wang Yangming saw that the body was only half in tatters, and almost all the internal organs were beaten.
When I saw the rotten and bloody situation, I couldn't help but lay there and retched.
Seeing the reactions of these civil servants, a look of disdain flashed in Cao Xiong's eyes.
Shen Guang had just secretly told Cao Xiong about Shen Buyi's embarrassment for him.
After all, Cao Xiong was also the commander-in-chief of the town. Although he had no choice but to admit this high-ranking official of the imperial court, it did not mean that he would not hold grudges.
At this time, seeing these civil servants being frightened and losing their minds, Cao Xiong naturally said in a tone full of disdain to Shen Buyi, who was pale and trying not to vomit, "Master Shen is so brave.
Ah, I will admire you."
As he spoke, Cao Xiong looked at the half of the corpse and said in an admiring tone: "If I am not mistaken, this Tatar corpse must have been killed by the general, and only the general could casually kill it."
It took only a short time to kill a Tatar soldier..."
Shen Buyi groaned and finally couldn't help but spit it out. Many soldiers around him looked at Shen Buyi and others with strange eyes.
"Reckless people, reckless people, they are all a bunch of reckless people!"
Several civil servants, who almost vomited out the acidic water, could only stand with the support of a few soldiers, murmuring softly.
Ignoring these people, Wang Yangming sighed softly: "Just looking at this battlefield, you can imagine what a tragic battle happened here not long ago."
Hearing this, Cao Xiong sighed softly: "What the governor said is true. Fortunately, the general was personally on the scene. Even so, our army suffered thousands of casualties."
While he was speaking, the ground shook slightly, and everyone's expressions changed when they felt such a big movement.
"A large group of cavalry, this is a large group of cavalry."
Cao Xiong's expression changed drastically and he exclaimed in surprise.
Wang Yangming stared into the distance with a solemn expression, and he could vaguely see the billowing smoke coming from the distance like a long dragon.
Cao Xiong said to a general beside him: "He Wei, quickly judge, how many people are there?"
The general named by Cao Xiong did not seem to have any special features. At first glance, he looked like an ordinary military general.
But at this moment, He Wei stood there calmly and calmly, seeming to judge the number of incoming enemies through the vibrations of the earth.
When Wang Yangming heard Cao Xiong's words, he couldn't help but look at He Wei in surprise.
You must know that even if Wang Yangming's cultivation is unpredictable, he cannot judge how many people are coming?
But judging from what Cao Xiong meant, it seemed that this general was able to judge how many troops the invading enemy had by the shaking of the earth!
He Wei took out a breath, raised his head and saluted Cao Xiong: "Sir, if the general's judgment is not wrong, the enemy may have more than 20,000 troops."
Upon hearing this, Cao Xiong's expression changed greatly and he said: "There are so many people, so this movement cannot be caused by the general's troops."
Li Huan only had more than 10,000 men and horses under his command, but He Wei said that there were at least 20,000 people. The number of men and horses was not enough, so they were definitely not under Li Huan's command.
Wang Yangming looked at He Wei seriously and said, "General, are you sure?"
He Wei nodded immediately, and Cao Xiong explained to Wang Yangming: "The Governor is unaware. He Wei can indeed roughly judge the number of people coming through the vibration of the earth. Although it is not that accurate, the difference is not too big.
big."
When Wang Yangming heard this, he nodded towards Cao Xiong and said, "In that case, the Tatars came to kill him."
Although he was worried about what happened to Li Huan's troops now, Wang Yangming said to Cao Xiong without hesitation: "General Cao, I order you to immediately command the troops and horses to enter the second earth wall and fight at any time.
"
Cao Xiong immediately responded to the order and said: "The last general will obey."
Wang Yangming then looked at Guan Zheng beside him and said: "Commander Guan, you go immediately to gather troops and horses to guard the third earth wall and support General Cao at any time."
Guan Zheng clasped his fists and accepted the order and left.
The army quickly moved into action. After a while, Cao Xiong finished dispatching his generals. He glanced around and was startled when he saw Wang Yangming. It turned out that Wang Yangming had not left yet.
His expression changed slightly, and Cao Xiong hurriedly walked towards Wang Yangming.
At the same time, smoke and dust were billowing several miles away. Li Huan was leading the way, followed by a group of soldiers returning from the victory, plus more than 10,000 captured horses and thousands of prisoners. Flags were flying, and all the soldiers followed one by one.
His body was covered in blood, but his energy and spirit were high, and his spirit was high. At first glance, he looked like a victorious master who had returned victorious.
Generals Xu Ying, Chen Ang, and Ren Pingping followed Li Huan energetically. Xu Ying galloped and laughed at Li Huan and said: "General, we have returned with a great victory. I'm afraid Cao Xiong and the others have seen us.
My jaw dropped."
