Chapter 26 Shanhaiguan Incident

Since Dong Xiaowan left, Li Xin has been in endless busyness. No one around him helps. Although Jiang Yi, Yang Xiong and others are all experts in military training, they are not experts in governance. He can only do these comforting labor. Fortunately, these laborers are honest people. Facing Li Xin's sugar-coated shells, they all surrendered and worked much faster. Dalinghe City is also the same every day, growing at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.

"Lord, Lord Qiu wrote to me that a group of prisoners will be sent here soon." On that day, Li Xin was carefully calculating how much money he had on his body, and Jiang Yi stepped in and said.

"It is actually the same as coming or not coming." Li Xin shook his head and said, "It cannot add much power when he comes. I'm afraid it's unlikely that the city will be repaired before the Donglu goes south."

Jiang Yi remained silent. It was indeed very effective to train soldiers every day as He Kegangsuo said, but even if they train soldiers in this way, they will now make some achievements every day, from losing five people at a time to winning the current victory. It can be said that the combat effectiveness of Li Xin's cavalry has increased greatly, but that's it. Li Xin did not show any pride. Because until now, the number of Donglu cavalry encountered more and more frequently every day.

"This Zu Dashou is still a little capable. I think he has learned something wrong recently. The Guanning Iron Cavalry around him has also been sent, just around the detective cavalry. He was not given food by the Dongguai so that he had no bones." Li Xin said to himself, then raised his head and asked, "How is your current cavalry compared to the Guanning Iron Cavalry?"

"It's not much different, but if it comes to being ruthless, I'm afraid we're even more ruthless than them." Jiang Yi showed a hint of confidence on his face. These people are different from the Guanning Iron Cavalry. Li Xin's cavalry attaches the most importance to ruthlessness. They don't care about humanity. As long as there are enemies, they will rush forward. They can win with more, and they will definitely not win with less.

"The war is probably coming." Li Xin said softly.

"Lord, should you choose a group of people from those labor services to fill our army? My subordinates have recently discovered a few good seedlings. Anyway, Dalinghe City will be successfully built in a few days." Jiang Yi asked.

"Let's get in touch for the moment, ask them if they are interested. When the war comes, take them away." Li Xin thought about it and gave up this tempting idea. At this time, recruiting soldiers is to give Zu Dashou a quarrel. Zu Dashou may now think about taking his cavalry for himself.

"I am afraid that I will not be able to bring many people out by then!" Jiang Yi's eyes turned, and suddenly walked to Li Xin and said softly: "Lord, I have a good way to help the lord."

"What's the solution?" Li Xin asked curiously.

"Lord, you see that there are more than 10,000 people on the construction site. Even if so many people are counted one by one, it is very difficult. Why not select a group of people from it now, bring one or two people every day, and then send them to the valley. We will leave people there to train them, and when it comes a certain time, they can also bring them in hand. Hehe, lord. I think that others will not pay attention to it if I send a few people to this day." Jiang Yi said with a smile: "Even Zu Dashou will not pay attention."

"No, this method is good." Li Xin nodded and said, "It may not work if this is the case. We have to find a way. We will do it more like this. Put these people in a tent, take them out quietly at night, and take them away the next day. Anyway, the Dalinghe City has been almost built. Even if there are fewer people, it doesn't matter."

"The Lord and the Lord are wise." Jiang Yi was overjoyed.

"Jiang Yi, you are a good person. I'm afraid this idea was not yours!" Li Xin suddenly realized and pointed at Jiang Yi and said, "Only Yang Xiong can come up with such an unreliable idea, only Yang Xiong can do such a cunning method."

"Hehe, lord, lord, lord, lord," Jiang Yi also admitted: "Yang Xiong is looking for an opportunity to attack, but he does not dare to deceive his lord, so he asked his subordinates to test his lord."

"Okay, okay, I know you are also for my own good." Li Xin nodded and said, "This time, I'm afraid it's time to be on the critical moment. We must be careful. We ordered people to go to Jinzhou immediately, meet Qiu Hejia, and ask him for weapons. Then transport it to the valley. We are in the city, so what can we do to help us, but once we leave the city, we need to get the weapons ourselves."

"Yes, I'll do it now." Jiang Yi quickly retreated.

At this moment, He Kegang and others appeared in Zu Dashou's mansion. Apart from He Kegang, everyone else's faces were filled with joy.

"Everyone, according to Li Xin, Dalinghe City will be completed within three days. At that time, our Ming Dynasty will add another barrier east of Jinzhou to protect Jinzhou and the horns of Jinzhou City. No matter how many soldiers and horses there are in the East, we cannot shake us at all." Zu Dashou said proudly.

"This scholar is not bad, he has many ideas!" Wu Xiang also said with a smile: "Since that's the case, I will tell the General Secretary to send troops to garrison."

"Okay. General Wu can go by himself." Zu Dashou nodded and said, "Only our Guanning Iron Cavalry more than 10,000 people may not be able to defend this Dalinghe City. More troops are needed to nail Dalinghe City like a nail, making it difficult for the Donglu to want to eat it.

"The commander said it is reasonable." Everyone shouted.

"General Wu must go and go back quickly. Recently, there are more and more people in the Donglu, and it is becoming more and more frequent. I am afraid that the Donglu will be suspected of sending troops." He Kegang spoke at this time.

Zu Dashou's expression suddenly became unfavorable when he heard this, but after thinking about it, he did not stop He Kegang. He just said to Wu Xiang: "General He said so much, you should go and go back quickly! If the Donglu really comes by then, our army is short of troops and cannot defend this Dalinghe City."

"Master, my Dalinghe City has tens of thousands of elite soldiers. Why can't I defend this Dalinghe City?" But a young general glanced at He Kegang in dissatisfaction and bowed and said, "Master, there are more than 10,000 people in this Dalinghe City. These fat and fat people raised by Li Xin are all the same roles for two. If these people are incorporated into the army and trained for a little, they will definitely be elite soldiers. How can these people be said to have insufficient garrison power?"

"Yes, yes." Wu Xiang and others also exclaimed.

"Also, the last general heard that the governor's guard has won a lot recently. It is rumored that their combat power is far above my Guanning Iron Cavalry. Why don't the father-in-chief go to the supervisor to temporarily include this guard in the Guanning Iron Cavalry and replenish the power of the Guanning Iron Cavalry. When the world is peaceful in the future, it will be returned." Zu Zerun said with a smile. Everyone lit up when they heard this. They had just smiled at the guard in Li Xin's hands. How could they care about such a cavalry? But recently, this guard finally entered everyone's eyes, because they were not under the Guanning Iron Cavalry every time they captured. However, these hundreds of people were rare and could not play any major role. But at this time, if the Donglu army really came, these hundreds of people could play a role.

He Kegang sighed on the side. He knew that the guard looked like Qiu Hejia's guard, but in fact, it was Li Xin's private cavalry. Li Xin had long been dissatisfied with the Guanning army, so how could he hand over his guard to Zu Dashou for command? What Zu Zerun said just now was just a nice saying, but in fact he might have borrowed or paid back. If he didn't consume these people, he would not return the cavalry to Li Xin. But at this time, he couldn't say anything.

When Zu Zerun heard everyone agreeing, a trace of sinister smiled. He sneered in his heart: "Li Xin, Li Xin, this time I think you are going to compensate your wife and your army. Well! I think that at this time the little lady was approaching Shanhaiguan. I wonder if my cousin had intercepted her. Unfortunately, such a beautiful lady actually let her cousin get in touch with her first. No, I will look for her cousin to come back." Zu Zerun's eyes turned.

At this moment, outside Shanhaiguan, a team of cavalry was slowly moving, and a small carriage among the cavalry was slowly heading towards Shanhaiguan. The general was tall and strong, with a strong face. Who would he be if he were not Zhao Guang?

"Stop, who are you?" As soon as everyone arrived at the city gate, they saw someone step forward to stop him.

"You dare to stop the family of Lord Qiu, the governor of Liaodong." Zhao Guang took out a guardian document from his arms, Yang Yang, and snorted coldly: "I won't let it go."

"The family of the governor of Liaodong?" The soldier was stunned when he heard this, and swept around. The last person with a small flag looked over, took Zhao Guang's guard document, and saw that it was Qiu Hejia's seal printed on it. He immediately looked embarrassed on his face. He subconsciously glanced at his head.

Zhao Guang also looked at it with pleasure, but saw that there was a young general standing above Shanhaiguan. He was tall and strong. Zhao Guang was stunned when he saw this. Although he didn't know what the young general was named, he could tell that this person was probably a master.

"Who? He actually works on Lord Qiu's guards?" Seeing that he had been exposed, the young general also went down the city tower. He rode a pitch-black horse slowly and glanced at Zhao Guang. He said, "As far as I know, Lord Qiu came to Liaodong alone, and there was no family accompanying him. It might be inappropriate for you to say that Lord Qiu's family was just now!"

"My young lady is Governor Qiu's niece. This time the master died of illness in Shanhaiguan and wanted to help the spirits back home. Lord Qiu specially issued this pass certificate. Isn't this a pass certificate from Lord Qiu?" Zhao Guangqiu immediately stepped forward and said softly.

"Hmph! How do I know if this is Lord Qiu's relatives? Maybe it's a thief here, but it's not clear." The young general's expression changed and he snorted coldly: "Get out of the way, Shanhaiguan is an important place in the court, and anyone must check it."

"You, my young lady is a female family member, and it is inconvenient to check it out." Zhao Guang changed his mind and said dissatisfiedly: "This Lord Qiu is also an official in the imperial court, and we are the personal guards of the Governor's Office? Do you need to check it out?"

"Don't say it's your personal guard? Even if the governor comes, he will dismount here?" The young general's face showed a trace of ferociousness and sneered: "You also know that there are many horse bandits outside the pass. God knows whether you are the personal guards or horse bandits? I'll intercept the lady of the official family, so I'll take the opportunity to enter the pass! Since that's the case, please come down and confront each other."

"Who are you who actually offended Lord Qiu's family?" Zhao Guang's face turned red and pointed at the general and said, "Be careful that I report to Shangguan and remove you from the military position."

"Haha! I dare to threaten me. Then I will tell you, my general, Wu Sangui, Liaodong Regiment General Wu Xiang." The young general pulled out a long knife from his waist and pointed at Zhao Guang and said, "In this Shanhaiguan, no matter who you are? You must come down to check."

"You?" Zhao Guang's face turned angry.

"Brother Zhao, since he wants to check, let's just let him do it!" At this time, a delicate voice came into everyone's ears, and there was silence around him in an instant. Wu Nong's soft words were light and gentle. As soon as Dong Xiaowan's voice came out, the vulgar men around him suddenly became silent. They all stared at the carriage with their eyes wide open.

"Madam?" Zhao Guang was anxious now.

"Haha, it's still the young lady who understands the righteousness." Wu Sangui laughed.

"Wu Sangui, today is humiliated, someone will tear you into pieces in the future." Zhao Guanghu's eyes shone and stared at Wu Sangui tightly.

"I will follow the rules. Even if His Holiness is here, I can't do anything to me." Wu Sangui said coldly, but his eyes were staring at the car door.

"I've seen the general." At this time, he walked out of the car door wearing a snow-white mourning clothes and respectfully bowed to Wu Sangui.

Seeing this, Wu Sangui couldn't help but take a breath of air. Although he couldn't see Dong Xiaowan's appearance, he could see Dong Xiaowan's body was delicate and his hair was covered with dark clouds and sunset. His fragrance was extremely attractive, confusing the surroundings for several feet. When he lowered his head, the snow-white skin between his neck was clearly visible, and the pink earlobes made people want to kiss him.

"Mrs. Young Madam, Young Madam doesn't have to be too polite." Wu Sangui was already fascinated by this time. The so-called girl should be pretty and filial. Dong Xiaowan is already beautiful, and with a filial piety dress, she looks even more charming. Wu Sangui only felt a flame rising from his lower abdomen and couldn't help but say, "Please raise your head."

"Wu Sangui, you are so brave." Zhao Guang finally couldn't help it. The spear in his hand was like lightning, flashing with cold stars, all shining Wu Sangui in it.

Wu Sangui was also a master. Seeing this, he was so heartbroken that he didn't even think of beauty. The long sword in his hand was instantly pulled out, rolled up a series of sword flowers, and protected him in front of him. He could only hear a burst of gold and iron clashing. Finally, he felt a cold in his neck. In desperation, he had to put the long sword in his hand. His skills were not as good as Zhao Guang, and he walked in a hurry, so he was not Zhao Guang's opponent.

"Do you want to kill me?" Wu Sangui looked at Zhao Guang with a smile, raised the long sword in his hand, and his face changed. However, he saw that his long-refined steel sword was full of cracks at this moment, and several gun holes could be seen appearing on it.

"Your martial arts are actually taken out to show off your ugly things. If my young master is again, you will not even have the chance to block it." Zhao Guang glanced around disdainfully and said, "Everyone is a soldier of the Ming Dynasty. When will it be bullied by a weak woman? If it spreads it, you will be despised by the whole world."

Many soldiers around him looked at each other and put down the weapons in their hands. Not to mention that Wu Sangui was still in Zhao Guang's hands, just as Zhao Guang said that the bullying of a weak woman wearing mourning is indeed as Zhao Guang said. Once it spreads, it will probably be ridiculed by the people of the world. Even Wu Sangui also showed a hint of shame and anger on his face.

"I will let you go, but you can't threaten me like this. You are threatening the imperial officials." Wu Sangui said coldly.

"You bullied even a weak woman, how can I believe me Zhao Guang? What's more, we have Lord Qiu's guards document, you don't even care about this, so why should I care about these things? If you spread it, I want to see if you are unlucky or I am unlucky." Zhao Guanghu opened his eyes wide and looked at Wu Sangui coldly. There was a look of disdain on the corner of his mouth. This matter was related to Dong Xiaowan's safety, and Zhao Guang dared not do so easily.

"I am just a Shanhaiguan general. If you threaten me like this, I'm afraid it won't work." The shame and anger flashed across Wu Sangui's face. Sweeping to the side, a charming face came towards him. The apricot eyes were full of sadness at this moment. Wu Sangui's heart beat, but at this moment he was helpless.

"If you are an ordinary president, I will naturally not take it seriously, but you are Wu Xiang's son and Zu Dashou's nephew. I don't believe that your identity has no effect in Shanhaiguan." Zhao Guang was not stupid and said coldly: "Order the switch to release it. Hum, there will naturally be someone to settle the score with you in the future. Even your Shangguan will not be able to protect you if you bully the family of the Liaodong Governor." Zhao Guang glanced around and suddenly saw a red tassel flashing and a hint of gloom appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Okay, okay." Wu Sangui waited a lot, and saw that no one came out to speak, but he didn't know what the situation was now. In desperation, he had to wave his hand and let the people around him let go. Zhao Guang did not dare to be negligent, so he quickly ordered people to protect Dong Xiaowan out of Shanhaiguan and search for the charity village. He and the villain of the Dong family who were waiting there pulled Dong Fusheng's coffin along the official road towards Beijing.

"Friend, now that you leave Shanhaiguan, you should let go!" Wu Sangui was embarrassed and angry. Once upon a time, he was pointed at his neck with a spear for an hour.

"I'll talk about it after leaving Shanhaiguan for fifty miles." Zhao Guang was not deceived and sneered.

"Brother Zhao, you are a hero. How can you be a servant like this? Why not join my Guanning Army and I will protect you from being rich in the future?" Wu Sangui's eyes turned and he couldn't help but persuade him.

"You?" Zhao Guang glanced at Wu Sangui disdainfully and said, "If you can reach half of my lord, I will follow you."

"That old man Qiu Hejia?" Wu Sangui burst into laughter.

"How can a Qiu Hejia make me Zhao Guang please surrender?" Zhao Guang said disdainfully: "My lord is Huai'an Li Xin and Wu Sangui, you must remember it."
