"Mr. Lu, aren't you following King Ji? How did you come to me? Could it be that King Ji is in trouble?" After all, he is Zhu Ruodeng's second uncle. As soon as he entered the account, Chen Biao asked anxiously.
"Our army was defeated in the Battle of Bargujin Fort. The King of Ji sent Yu here to urge the Marquis of Nanling to advance westward immediately." Lu Shiyi recounted the battle of Bargujin to Chen Biao in detail, and Chen Biao was dumbfounded.
Lu Shiyi asked Chen Biao: "Why is Marquis Nanling walking so slowly? In your opinion, what should be done to urge him to walk faster?"
Chen Biao thought for a while and smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know why the march is so slow. It's just that Nanling Marquis has an order to only march twenty miles a day, marching steadily. This man is arrogant and rebellious. He is not afraid of anyone except the current Holy Emperor. If
If you want him to walk faster, I'm afraid you need a saint."
"Imperial decree?"
Although there was no imperial edict, Lu Shiyi found out Sun Guangwei's weakness: he was afraid of the current emperor.
He smiled and said: "Take me to see the Marquis of Nanling."
Sun Guangwei is a heroic man, and the tent he lives in is large enough to accommodate more than thirty people.
When Lu Shiyi entered, he was handling military affairs, with a pile of official documents piled in front of him.
"Are you the envoy of King Ji?" Sun Guangwei said unhurriedly, with a hint of contempt in his eyebrows.
"Yes, I have brought the military order of the general who conquers the north." Lu Shiyi's voice was soft but clear.
The words "General of the Northern Expedition" made Sun Guangwei shocked. He knew the importance Emperor Guangwu attached to the Northern Expedition. Especially when he heard the word "military order", he had to reluctantly stand up to receive the order. Military orders are like mountains, and they are everywhere.
As a veteran, he still understands this truth.
"Oh, what are the military orders of General Zhengbei?"
"The general ordered the deputy general to set off immediately and rush to Gusino Ozersk Fort to meet him within half a month."
After listening to Lu Shiyi's words, Sun Guangwei sneered in his heart and said perfunctorily: "It's not that I don't want to go, it's just that the wind and snow are too heavy and the military supply is insufficient. I can't make it in half a month anyway."
"Oh, how long does it take to be deputy general?" Sun Guangwei, like Ma Bao, was appointed deputy general of Zhengbei. Lu Shiyi jokingly called him "deputy commander".
"It will take at least three months."
"Three months?"
Lu Shiyi was not annoyed after hearing this. Instead, he chatted with Sun Guangwei calmly, "I heard that Marquis Nanling was born as a lieutenant in the Jingjiang Prince's Palace. I must know the temperament of the Holy Emperor well, right?"
"That is, you don't know where I was when I followed the Holy One to promote justice in Guangxi," Sun Guangwei said proudly, showing off his seniority.
"If you and I have a dispute, will your Majesty help me or you?"
"Haha, Your Majesty values friendship and protects his own shortcomings. If you dare to provoke old ministers like us in front of his old man, I'm afraid your head will not be saved." After saying this, Sun Guangwei laughed. Indeed, as a hero of Conglong, he really has no
Take a mere rotten scholar seriously.
Lu Shiyi also laughed, and the laughter was actually louder than him, "Hahaha, Nanling Marquis is about to die, and he doesn't know it yet. It's ridiculous! It's ridiculous!"
"What! How dare a rotten scholar insult me?" Sun Guangwei was furious and pulled out the sword from his waist. "This sword has been used to kill tigers. I want to hear how you can kill me. If you are not right, I will tell you something."
Head sacrificial knife!"
"Alas! The Marquis of Nanling was wise for a time, but was confused for a while. You also know that the Holy One values friendship the most, and the most important relationship in the world is the love between father and son. King Ji is the Holy Son's biological son. He is in trouble, and you refuse to save him.
If something goes wrong, can the Holy One spare you? If I offend you, I will probably die; if you harm King Ji, will you survive?"
"This~"
After hearing this, Sun Guangwei stopped talking. Er sweated like rain and trembled all over. He bowed deeply to Lu Shiyi and said, "I am so confused! Fortunately, sir, you gave me some advice. Otherwise, I might have harmed the whole family! I will repay you later for saving my life."
I will travel day and night to save King Ji."
After hearing the military order to rush to Gusino Ozersk Fort day and night, Tang Bin was surprised and came to see Sun Guangwei, "Why did the commander change his mind?"
"Alas, Mr. Tang, you don't know something. King Ji was defeated and sent Mr. Lu here??"
Sun Guangwei reiterated to Tang Bin what Lu Shiyi said to persuade him.
After hearing this, Tang Bin was amazed and kept praising, "This man is known as the Great Confucian of Jiangnan, and he is indeed a person like Su Qin and Zhang Yi. The King of Ji should not be underestimated if he has this person to assist him."
"Oh, sir, do you think he is lying to me?" Sun Guangwei asked.
"No, what this person said does make sense. If you don't save King Ji, Long Yan will be furious and will inevitably get into trouble; but if you get too close to King Ji, the crown prince may not be happy. Alas.
!It’s so difficult!”
Tang Bin thought for a while and suddenly said: "Why don't you implement the strategy of 'surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao'?"
"Oh, what's the method of 'surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao'?"
"After you go all the way west via Chita and over the Yablonov Mountains, you don't need to go to the Gusino Ozersk Fort to meet the King of Ji. Instead, you go directly to the northwest to attack the Barguzin Fort. The Rakshasa people heard that you attacked their home base.
, you must return to the army to rescue, and the siege of Gusino Ozersk Castle will be relieved. In this way, you have saved King Ji and avoided the blame of the Holy Emperor, and you do not have to meet King Ji directly and violate the prince's taboo. This is called '
Surround Wei and rescue Zhao'".
After hearing this, Sun Guangwei was overjoyed and said, "Sir, I have great advice, so I will follow your advice." Then he told Lu Shiyi the plan and asked him to report it to King Ji first.
??
In the coldest month of the twelfth lunar month, fierce battles raged on the Gusino Ozersk Fortress. Generals Golitsyn, Bashkov, Anchiforka, and Redishchev attacked the city day and night. Cannons roared below the city, and the city
Fired volleys of cannons, causing heavy casualties on both sides.
The war was postponed until December, and Zhu Ruodeng finally received news that Sun Guangwei's troops had crossed Yablonov Mountain via Chita.
The Marquis of Nanling moved as fast as a cheetah. Once he passed the Yablonov Mountain, he overran five Cossack camps and reached the gates of Barguzin City.
Golitsyn and Bashkov were shocked. Barguzin was the foundation of the Lake Baikal region. Once it was lost, it would be all over! The two of them worked together to abandon Gusino Ozersk Fort and quickly returned to support Barguzin.
.
When passing Lensk Fort, Duke Golitsyn was afraid that the Ming army would use the fort to station troops, so he ordered people to burn the wooden fort to the ground.
"General, the Marquis of Nanling is attacking Bargujin. The last general requested to go north immediately and join forces with the Marquis of Nanling to attack the city. This will avenge the humiliation." Generals Ma Bao, Chen Youlong, Hu Maozhen, and Yan Xiaoyong all asked for battle.
Thinking of the tragic defeat last time, Zhu Ruodeng became angry and wanted to join forces with Sun Guangwei to attack Barguzin Fort again to avenge his humiliation.
"No," came a soft voice, but it was Lu Shiyi who had previously persuaded Sun Guangwei to make great achievements.
Zhu Ruodeng asked strangely: "Why did Mr. Lu say no?"
"You were defeated last time. If you relied on the power of Nanling Marquis to capture the city of Bargujin this time, would it be you or Nanling Marquis who won the first victory in the northern expedition? Isn't it like making a wedding dress for others?"
But Zhu Ruodeng understood what Lu Shiyi said. He was going to the north to increase his prestige and expand his power. He should not give up his first credit to others. What's more, Sun Guangwei is the teacher of the crown prince. If he gets the first credit, wouldn't he be doing it for the prince's brother?
Made a wedding dress?
"In your opinion, sir, what should I do?"
Lu Shiyi tapped his finger on the military map, "Here, Erkou City, the Rakshasa people stationed supplies here, and moved all the Buryat Mongols in the eastern part of the North Sea here. If they capture this place,
It's like cutting off a Rakshasa's arm."
Zhu Ruodeng looked at the map for a moment and suddenly smiled, "What Mr. said is true. So I asked Nanling Marquis to pull out the hard nail of Barguzin, and pick up the soft persimmon of Erkou City. He beat him, solitary.
After capturing this city, all the land west of the lake will be mine. Hahaha!"
