Chapter 1461 Minor, See

"Uncle, Sun Yue has caught up! And... Zhang Fengdu has also caught up."

Lin Qun'an and Chen De complained for a while, and when they looked again, they found that Fang Xing's subordinates were chasing after him.

Fang Xing nodded: "The general is outside, there is no need to be restricted. We have grenades, and it is the same to withdraw them after bombing for a while. Send an order and go to the two thousand households to meet them."

Following Fang Xing's order, they set off again.

"Uncle, and King Ning, ask for orders to attack."

At this time, someone came to report.

Fang Xing smiled slightly, and said: "Yes, but you have to obey the orders. By the way, thank you and King Ning for Uncle Ben, and say that you will welcome Ning Yanghou at night and invite him to drink."

Chen Mao stopped looking at it, and he turned back and said, "It seems that King He Ning has been tamed by you, and the Tatars will probably belong to Ming Dynasty in the future. This is not a small achievement."

As a veteran general, temporary success or failure will not affect Chen Mao.

Fang Xing said: "The biggest key to subduing the Tatar tribe lies in the strength of Daming. Relying on strength to deter people will make people despair, and in the end they can only surrender."

This is the general trend, but anyone who can take advantage of the general trend will naturally benefit everywhere.

Chen Mao saw countless cavalry rushing out of the camp on the right, shouted and chased after them, and said with emotion: "We were always worried that Xinghe Fort would not be able to stop us in Beijing, but now it seems that everyone really underestimated you."

Fang Xing had already seen A-Tai, he waved his hand, and said, "If it's pure defense, even if it's besieged by the Harlei army, I'm confident that I can hold it for a while."

How can more than a thousand musketeers defend a castle attacked by an army of hundreds of thousands? In Fang Xing's view, such a record, unless the attacker is a fool, the defenders' ammunition can be exhausted with a sea of ​​people.

Chen Mao sighed: "Hey! I can't do anything here! I can only wait for His Majesty to expand the firearms guards to fight for it, but my subordinates can't do it! I don't understand these tactics."

Fang Xing smiled and said, "What about martial arts?"

"yes!"

Chen Mao clapped his hands, startled A Tai who was standing near him, and said, "Yes! Those students in martial arts will be assigned at that time, and it will be much easier if they take the lead. Xing Hebo, martial arts is also strongly advocated by you. Yes, remember to teach more!"

"My lord!"

Fang Xing cupped his hands at A Tai, and introduced: "This is King He Ning."

Chen Mao cupped his hands and said, "Chen Mao, Marquis of Ningyang, how much do you drink with Prince Ning?"

Atai didn't expect Chen Mao to be an acquaintance, and immediately responded: "Xiao Wang's drinking capacity...you can drink a bag of milk wine."

"Okay! Xing and Bo must have something good on hand, let's have a drink together tonight."

The three of them entered the castle, and the war was completely forgotten, and they couldn't control it anymore.

Arriving at Fang Xing's place, seeing that it was actually a 'luxury yamen' consisting of three rooms, Chen Mao smiled and said, "You're a good boy, Your Majesty doesn't like martial arts the most, so you can enjoy it."

After the three of them sat down, Chen Mao's complexion changed, and he said, "Your Majesty has arrived at the Xuan Mansion, and the army is being repaired. You can come here at any time."

Fang Xing's body relaxed, and he shouted: "Lao Qi, get some noodles for lunch, let them make a big hot pot at night."

Xin Laoqi agreed to arrange, and Chen Mao moved his stiff neck and said: "The army can't see the side at a glance, and the baggage trucks are connected end to end from Beiping to Xuanfu. We can drag Harleen to death if we drag this battle casually." .”

Atai said happily: "Hou Ningyang, is it possible for Xiao Wang to go to see His Majesty?"

Without Zhu Di's face-to-face permission, A-Tai always felt very nervous, worried that he would be abandoned.

Chen Mao took off his helmet and said casually, "If the Halie people are far away, it's time for Xinghe Bo to meet His Majesty."

Fang Xing comprehended and said: "These Halie people are probably going to flee far away, at most they only dare to watch around, so, tomorrow I will accompany He Ning Wang to the Xuanfu."

Chen Mao nodded and said: "Since there is no war here, then Ben Hou can just watch it, and let those little brats who have lost the battle get acquainted by the way."

Not long after, Chen Mao's deputy general came to plead guilty.

"What are you guilty of?"

Chen Mao said lightly,

But Fang Xing clearly saw murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

The defeat in the first battle dealt a huge blow to the morale of an army, so Chen Mao was really murderous.

The deputy general was well aware of his crimes, so he just pleaded guilty and didn't dare to beg for mercy at all.

"Remembering that the war is imminent, this Marquis promises you to take the crime and make meritorious service. Come in and pull it out. You will be held accountable twenty times."

The lieutenant general was dragged out, shouting in ecstasy to thank Chen Mao for his kindness, and gradually walked away.

The punishment is very light!

...

In the Xuan Mansion, Zhu Di has already recovered. He has watched the generals train his subordinates all day long and has to deal with some political affairs.

The weather was getting warmer gradually, but the conditions outside were not as good as in the palace. Zhu Di just burned a charcoal basin here, and dared not close the door for fear of being poisoned by charcoal.

Putting down the memorial, Zhu Di took off his presbyopic glasses and said, "Chen Maogang made an apology on the memorial. The forward turned into a arrogant soldier and lost in the battle with the Harlei's light cavalry. Fortunately, Fang Xing sent someone to rescue him, and the Halle people have already been dispersed."

Zhang Fu thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, I guess the people below are a little bit contemptuous of Harleen. I think it's better to publicize this matter, which can be regarded as a beating."

Zhu Di nodded, "Yes, when Chuanxiao's army learned about it, I warned them that the Harlei people are not Tatars, nor are they Oarats, they are fiercer enemies than them. All soldiers, wake up!"

Underestimating the enemy has always been the emotion that Zhu Di hates the most and is the last thing he wants to see, so after seeing Chen Mao's apology memorial, he tried his best to suppress his anger.

Zhu Yong didn't notice this atmosphere, and said casually: "Your Majesty, it's a good thing to lose first, otherwise I'm worried that this kind of underestimation of the enemy will break out during the war, and that will be fatal."

Zhu Di looked at him with a frown and said, "There are many ways to boost morale on the battlefield. With hundreds of thousands of troops fighting against each other, who dares to underestimate the enemy!"

Zhu Yong froze for a moment, and when he was about to say a few words of apology, the eunuch outside shouted: "Your Majesty, Uncle Xinghe... and King Hening came to ask for an audience."

Zhu Di's face turned from cloudy to happy in an instant, which made the civil and military people standing by the side feel sour.

Only when you co-author will you wake up to win your favor!

Zhu Di stroked his beard and said, "Let them in."

Following the transmission, the eunuch brought Fang Xing and A Tai in.

After saluting, Fang Xing first said: "Your Majesty, Harlei's light cavalry has lost a lot. At this time, we are strong and the enemy is weak on the front line of Xinghe Fort. King He Ning Jiu admired His Majesty's kindness and forced me to bring him to see you."

Atai's Chinese is already very good. After listening to Fang Xing's words, he was secretly grateful, and said: "Your Majesty, I was coerced by Alutai back then. I admired Daming for a long time and had nowhere to go. Today I can see Tianyan, I... I have no regrets in this life!"

Zhu Di's demeanor was cold and severe, and ordinary people couldn't bear it.

But Ah Tai not only managed it, but also flattered Zhu Di, which made Fang Xing secretly admire him.

Zhu Di nodded slightly and said: "Since you surrendered to Daming, everything has been in line with my wishes. I am not the emperor who waits to kill donkeys. You should be good. From now on, our monarchs and ministers will enjoy peace together."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

With Zhu Di's personal permission, Atai knelt down excitedly to thank him, and it was not fake at first glance, Zhu Di couldn't help stroking his beard and smiling.

Using tribute to lure a foreign country to become a vassal is nothing compared to using force and momentum to make former opponents bow their heads.

Zhu Di felt relieved, so he ordered: "I will have a banquet tonight, and I invite King Ning."

The eunuch quickly agreed, glanced at A Tai who was so excited that he couldn't help himself, and decided to improve the quality of the dinner.
