"Lord Bishulu, steward Tao from the Ming Dynasty wants to see you!" Outside the noisy Tatar camp, a Han banner officer bent down and reported loudly. As a humble servant, although he can show off his power in front of his subordinates,
But he didn't dare to be disrespectful in front of the Tatars; even a Tatar cook here could easily kill him!
"Steward Tao? Please come quickly!" Good man, good man! He is indeed a special and good citizen of the Qing Dynasty. He has not forgotten to send us supplies in this winter.
"Caomin Tao Daye, I've seen Master Bo Shulu, the leader!" Butler Tao likes this name more and more now. Don't worry, I don't dare to tell you the meaning of this name now, but you will all know it in a short time!
"Okay, we don't have that much courtesy in the army!" Bishulu Shanhuai picked up a bowl of wine and handed it over, "Here, take a sip to warm your body! Tell me, what good things did you bring this time?"
"
"Thank you, Mr. Bo Shulu!" Butler Tao drank the wine in one gulp and said respectfully: "This time the common people brought 160,000 kilograms of fine iron materials, 250,000 shi of grain to the Qing Dynasty.
There are thousands of pieces of cotton cloth…”
"What?" Bishulu Shanhuai couldn't believe his ears, there were so many strategic materials! This old guy is really not bad, damn, don't look at him who usually doesn't show off his skills and only gives some white medicine.
Luxury goods such as jade and porcelain; I really didn’t expect that he would be so generous at this critical moment, almost catching up with the transportation volume of other Ming Dynasty merchants in a year! Don’t think I have no rights, to such a good person
I can't treat him badly. I will praise him in the memorial to the emperor tomorrow!
"In addition, the common people specially brought you the best Dukang from Luoyang!" Butler Tao secretly laughed in his heart, how could that little fat man in Luoyang be so kind? I'm afraid you won't have the chance to use the supplies, but this wine will definitely be able to
Drink it!
"Okay! Okay!" Bishu Lushanhuai is happy, Du Kang, Cao Cao in the Three Kingdoms has said how to relieve worries, only Du Kang! I can finally drink this kind of jade liquid one day.
"Master Shenling, you can't just care about yourself!" When the Mutulugu Pagoda heard the word Du Kang, his mouth watered. The most popular thing in the Tatar world these days is the Three Kingdoms. To the people inside,
, that thing is well known.
"Okay! I'll gather those wolf cubs later, and I'll let you have a try!" Bishulu Shanhuai thought, no one would come in this cold day anyway. The stragglers from the Ming Dynasty were also outside the city.
After a while, do they still dare to attack the city of Lushun? Since they have nothing to do, they might as well hold a large banquet to enhance everyone's feelings. Even a hundred jars of wine can't be finished in a short while.
"Lord Bo Shulu, I still have something to ask of you!" Don't think that Butler Tao's wine is so easy to drink for free. If it weren't for Zhang Polu's strange request, he wouldn't be willing to take it out.
"Say!" They say that cannibals have short mouths. Nowadays, people eat and give food to others. As long as the request is not too excessive, it is really difficult for Bishulu Shanhuai to refuse.
"The Cao Min's fleet this time is relatively large, and most of them are boatmen recruited from the south. Do you think you can let them come down to boil some hot water and eat hot meals?" It is said that the officers and soldiers of the Special 1st Battalion have prepared dry food.
, there is no need to go to such trouble; but Zhang Polu really couldn't bear to let the Dongjiang Army soldiers who stayed behind starve and freeze again, and wanted them to eat and drink enough to keep their spirits up and see how the Tatars were wiped out.
"This..." Bishulu Shanhuai was really worried that there was some conspiracy here; but looking at his respectful appearance and thinking about his identity, he was embarrassed to refuse completely. "Okay, I'll let you on board.
The people are coming down! But they can only stay near the dock! If they go far away, don’t blame my Green Camp for not recognizing them!"
At night, the city gates of Lushun were closed tightly, and the Tatar troops were shouting and drinking. After confirming that none of the people disembarking had any dangerous items such as swords and guns, Bishu Lushanhuai was in a good mood and simply asked the Han bannermen to withdraw early.
When I came back, I squatted at the city gate to watch the gate...
"Brother, what is this thing in your hand? Can you let me see it?" After getting off the boat, everyone in the Dongjiang Army finally understood the purpose of this fleet. Unexpectedly, what came over was our Ming Dynasty's army. They
The ones he took were things he had never seen before, but I heard that this thing could beat up Tatars from a long distance away.
"This thing is called a rifle. I'll teach you how to use it after we capture Port Arthur!" Wu Shanzi respected these comrades who had always insisted on fighting behind enemy lines. Now he finally fully understood why the general said that they should defend themselves as Ming Dynasty
proud of our military.
"You mean, there are no Ming people in Lushun anymore?" Zhang Polu didn't expect that the small Tatars in Lushun actually had more than 5,000 soldiers stationed here.
"Yes, they moved all the people in the city to the direction of Qingniwa a few days ago, saying they were going to build a new port!" Although Xiong Qingshan had only come to Lushun not long ago, he was careful and spent a lot of time.
He took some time to investigate and patiently explained the current enemy situation to Zhang Polu.
"Okay! Then this matter will be much easier to handle!" Without the people of Ming Dynasty, Zhang Polu has no worries at all. Anyway, the general has said that there is no need for prisoners, and the five thousand enemies will be regarded as our dead brothers.
A meeting gift from the sisters!
"Battal Commander, the food is ready, let the brothers come over and eat!" Not far away, the officers and soldiers of the Special 1st Battalion who were temporarily assigned to serve as cooks greeted everyone in a low voice.
"Let's go! Brother Xiong, when you're full, go pack up the Tatars tomorrow!" Zhang Polu pulled Xiong Qingshan up. In the pot over there were stewed sweet potato vermicelli and large pieces of smoked ribs brought from Luoyang.
"Brother, eat slowly, there's still more in the pot!" Zhang Polu felt sad when he saw his comrades around him devouring their food. In the past, when Commander Mao was around, the Dongjiang Army could still have enough to eat; but now
Even the governor was almost killed. They must have not been exposed to meat for a long time.
"Yeah, yeah!" Xiong Qingshan nodded sheepishly while still sipping the hot broth. He just stuffed a good piece of ribs into his mouth and chewed it twice. He even swallowed the bones without spitting them out. "
Brother, our Dongjiang Army has been completely out of food since last year. Originally, when we all got together, we could get some food from the Tatars to cope with it; but since two months ago..."
"Hey..." Zhang Polu couldn't say anything else. He turned his head and tried to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, but found that Feng Erlei was quietly taking out the meat from the bowl and putting it into his arms. "You Erlei,
Why can’t you change your past behavior?”
"Hehe..." Feng Erleizi grinned sheepishly, licked his fingers stained with oil and water vigorously, and then said: "Isn't it that I'm hungry..."
"Okay, come and hold it!" Zhang Polu personally scooped up another large bowl of meat and handed it over, "Now we have enough meat and rice!"
"Then let's keep it too!" Feng Erleizi was still reluctant to eat while holding the bowl. "Zhu Dusi and the others are still hungry, we have to leave some for them, otherwise we are still human beings..."
"What?" Zhang Polu jumped in front of Feng Erleizi like a shot rabbit. "Zhu Dusi? Which Zhu Dusi?"
"Zhu Guochang and Zhu Dusi back then!" Feng Erleizi suddenly remembered that he was so excited just now that he forgot to mention this matter.
"That guy is still alive?" Zhang Polu couldn't believe this fact. He saw Zhu Guochang fall under the Tatar's butcher's knife with his own eyes.
"Alive, of course alive! It's a pity that Zhu Dusi's legs couldn't be saved..." Feng Erleizi's eyes were slightly dim, but he suddenly became energetic again and said: "But what's the point? He always ordered us to fight the Tatars. The year before last year
At the beginning of spring, we were lucky enough to capture a war horse. Now Master Dusi asks his brothers to tie him to the horse's back every time there is a war. In this way, he even beheaded several dogs!"….
"Okay! Good! You are indeed our old brother from back then!" Zhang Polu became excited, "Tell me, how many of our brothers from Lushun back then are still alive?"
"Wei Erniu, Tian Maozi, Dai Tietou..." Feng Erlaizi put down the bowl, clapped his fingers and said slowly: "There are also some of Aunt Xu and other women who helped us defend the city and survived.
In addition to those who died in the war over the years, there are still more than ten people!"
"Where are they?" Zhang Polu could not have imagined that after the bloody battle that year, these brothers who shared life and death would still survive. Especially those women and children mentioned by Feng Erleizi just now, there were actually survivors, which made him even more overjoyed.
"I heard that the Tatars were going to build a dock in Qingniwa, so Zhu Dusi led them to join the brothers from the Dongjiang Army at Muchangyi." After a pause, he added, "Because I am most familiar with the terrain in this area.
, so I stayed to cooperate with Xiong Qianhu and the others, and put some obstacles behind the Tatars’ backs. No matter what, we can’t let the Tatars be so free!”
"Qingniwa?" This is the second time Zhang Polu has heard the name of this place. It seems that the Tatars are really making big moves there. No matter what conspiracy they have, they cannot succeed. "The Tatars are here.
How many troops are there in this area?"
"This city of Lushun has to deal with the national thieves who are transporting supplies, so there are two Niu Lu left behind. The others are just weak guys!" Xiong Qingshan came all the way from Wanghai Fort and learned more about the situation outside. "Jin
The main force of the Tatars on the state guard side has been mobilized a long time ago, and it is said that they are going to attack our Ming Dynasty!"
Judging from the situation, I'm pretty lucky. A bold idea suddenly emerged in Zhang Polu's mind. "Er Legg, how long does it take to go back and forth from here to Kiba Station?"
"About two nights a day, what does the general want me to do?"
"After you have eaten and drank enough, take a good rest. When daybreak, I will ask a brother to accompany you and call Zhu Dusi and the others back!" Zhang Polu could hardly suppress the excitement in his heart. "Tell them, I am Zhang Polu.
The prisoners are going to capture Lushun!"
"Attack Lushun?" Feng Erlaizi jumped up. Years of getting along with him have taught him that Zhang Polu never does anything he's not sure about. He wiped his mouth and said, "Then why are you waiting for dawn? I'll set off now.
Find Judusi, and I promise to bring them all back by this time tomorrow!" After so many years of hiding in Tibet, I have long been tired of the small fights.
