Chapter 445

Looking at the army of Dongjiang Town along the Daling River, which was lined up like awls, firmly chiseling the positions they blocked, and advancing northward step by step. Huang Taiji, standing on a small high ground, put down his clairvoyance and smiled at the generals and ministers around him, "Daling River is already a dead city. Even if Zhao Xing brought more than 10,000 soldiers in, he would fall into the trap and seek death. One Zu Dashou is besieged, and another Zhao Xing is also besieged. We don't need to waste the precious lives of our warriors anymore, so let them in. Now I have decided not to persuade Daling River to trap Zu Dashou and Zhao Xing to death."

With his order, the army of Ajige and Mangurtai immediately retreated like a tide, released the blocking line, and gave up the occupation of the East Wharf of Daling River. Zhao Xing, who was full of energy, stood at the east gate of Daling River, then coughed, pulled the east gate of Daling River twice, and asked easily: "Is there anyone, is the master at home?"

A choked and old response came from behind the city gate: "Master Zu Dashou, welcome guests."

After a sound of carrying things in the door opening, the traumatized city gate slowly opened. Zu Dashou was supported by two sons and faced Zhao Xing, with his lips trembling and bowed: "Mr. Zhao——"

Zhao Xing smiled and helped him: "It's about to end. Please allow General Zu to allow my Dongjiang Town soldiers to enter the city."

Zu Dashou extended his hand respectfully: "Please come in."

Zhao Xing walked into the city gate with a high look and looked up. From here to the city, there were dark soldiers and people who were kneeling down to greet each other.

Zu Dashou shivered and said, "If lord comes a few days later, we will eat people."

When Zhao Xing heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I came in time, and the most tragic thing in the world did not happen. Our soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were still humans, not human-eating beasts."

Zu Dashou smiled sadly: "Sir, have you brought food?"

Zhao Xing said: "It's enough for the city people to eat for two days."

"It's only two days." Zu Dashou was a little disappointed: "So what should we do in two days?"

Zhao Xing did not answer him, but ordered Mao Zhongming who was following him: "Give all the military rations we brought to the military officers in the city to manage, and tell him that there is no need to be stingy about saving. People will eat three meals a day."

Zu Dashou was very moved at the time, but immediately said: "Sir, in two days, the military and civilians in our city cannot recover their physical strength. And with this little man, you want to break through the enemy's siege and rescue us, it is absolutely unrealistic. This time Huang Taiji let you in. In the eyes of Xiaguan, he is to surround you and me in this city. Please think carefully."

Zhao Xing smiled indifferently: "Please accompany me to the city and take a look."

Zu Dashou reached out to ask Zhao Xing to go first. Zhao Xing and Zu Dashou walked to the city side by side.

Standing at the head of the east gate and looking at the distance for 4 weeks, I really had a wide view. The water brought by the slowly flowing through the Daling River is refreshing. I took a deep breath of fresh air and listened to Zu Dashou personally introducing the situation here: "The east gate is only two miles away from the banks of the Daling River. At the beginning of construction, I built a dock here. Here I could directly connect to the sea. As a result, when Jiannu came, he immediately occupied this dock, and this place became a channel for Jiannu to contact the other side. Unfortunately, I was between the city and there were no artillery on the city, so I was trapped by them all over the place."

Zhao Xing looked at Zhang Dake: "Sir General, have you seen the water conditions and terrain here clearly?"

Zhang Dake replied with a flattering smile: "Yes, this location is really good. From here to the seakou where our fleet is anchored, there are only 20 miles of water. The river is wide and the water is slow, which is suitable for my No. 2 Eagle Boat. Don't worry, as long as you guard this pier, I will guarantee that as long as you guard this pier, I will transport the continuous supply of food and supplies from Dongjiang Town to supply the Daling River."

"Okay, then you will immediately equip the 100 cannons I gave you to your ship, and then start transporting the Daling River." Then you turn to Zu Dashou: "I will immediately place all the remaining 100 cannons on this city and control the entire dock and around. If Jiannu wants to occupy this dock again, I will be reluctant to do it. I will bombard him to ashes without me sending out a soldier."

After receiving such an arrangement, Zu Dashou finally felt relieved and immediately shouted to his two sons behind him: "Go back and cook, cook dry food."

Zhao Xing asked Zu Dashou again: "After so long, are there any personal soldiers you can fight?"

Zu Dashou answered without any concealment: "I still keep 500 strong and strong personal soldiers, not to save my life, but to firefighting teams. Once Jiannu attacks, they will be blocked wherever there is danger."

Zhao Xing nodded with a smile: "I understand this. Can you lend me your 500 soldiers now? Let my little brother Wu Sangui lead it?"

Zu Dashou had seen Wu Sangui's arrival long ago, but he was very resentful of his brother-in-law's escape, so he didn't pay much attention to him. At this time, Wu Sangui was talking quietly with his two cousins. When he heard Zhao Xing mention him, he immediately trotted to him and asked loudly: "What will the sir be the one who will do?"

Zhao Xing smiled and said, "I want to ask you to bring your uncle's five hundred personal soldiers and my six hundred cavalry out of the city. Your mission is to block the Daling River and prevent a Jiannu messenger from coming. Once things are done, I will help you upgrade to two levels in a row." Then he asked with a smile: "This mission is very dangerous, do you dare to go?"

This task is indeed dangerous, but Zhao Xing wanted to hand over this dangerous task to him, so he did not hesitate to make an aggressive move for this.

When Wu Sangui heard this, he was not afraid, but he looked excited and eager to try: "Don't worry, sir, I'll ensure that I complete the task."

This was beyond Zhao Xing's expectations. He never thought that a timid father would give birth to a warlike guy? If he had hesitated just now, Zhao Xing would have enforced military law without hesitation. The opportunity would have been gone.

Zu Runze proudly introduced to Zhao Xing: "I remember that back then, my uncle was trapped in Ningyuan. My cousin, with 18 cavalry, killed Nurhaci's joint camp and saved my uncle from sleep. She was only 16 years old that year."

Zhao Xing said oh, he had read this from history books. He originally thought that the Qing Dynasty was swearing for him, but he didn't expect it to be true. Now he is the President Qian. If he really let this guy complete the task, he would have to give him a garrison. According to the rules, the greater the official, the smaller the chance of death in battle, and it seems that he was losing.

Zhao Xing was thinking about it here, but Zhifeng asked in a mess: "How long does it take to isolate us?"

Originally, Zhao Xing was going to be tired of you even if you couldn't kill him, but in the face of his confidant and beloved general's inquiry, he had to change his mind and kill Wu Sangui. There were opportunities, but he couldn't just go around one of his confidants because of him. This was not cost-effective. So he honestly said: "Five days, only 5 days will be enough."

Zhifeng and Wu Sangui received the order without hesitation and went down to execute it.

Zu Dashou asked with a puzzled look: "Why does Lord Zhao have such an arrangement?"

Zhao Xing smiled and whispered: "I have sent a surprise soldier from Dongjiang Town to attack Huang Taiji's nest. Let us hold Huang Taiji here for a few more days and let my team turn Liaodong to the earth. When they plunder and destroy enough, Huang Taiji, who received the news, ran back to put out the fire without clamping his tail. I think he is a cruel person." Then he reminded: "This is a major military secret, and you must not let the third party know."

As a result, he said this, and before a quarter of an hour, the city recalled earth-shaking cheers. Zhao Xing smiled bitterly: "This is a damn confidential work, no one else."
