Chapter 25

Zhang Hao wanted to go to the north to clean, but their number was not enough, only 5,000 people, and he didn't dare to divide his troops, for fear that the Tatars would kill one of them and retaliate. Now he can only wait for dawn.

"Tell the soldiers to clean quickly. After cleaning, we will go to the east to meet!" Zhang Hao said to the soldiers behind. Fortunately, there were only 10,000 people in Nandaying, and many of the spoils were taken away by the Tatars, and not many of them were left behind.

In less than half an hour, Zhang Hao and the others started riding horses, and led the Tatars' war horses to the east camp.

At this moment, at the palace, Jiajing was sitting there in a daze, thinking about why there was no movement, whether he won or lost, there was an explosion in the south. Does it mean that Zhang Rong and the others have already reached the south? Why is there no news coming now?

Jiajing was already suspicious, and he was looking forward to Zhang Rong and the others winning the battle, and he also wondered if Zhang Rong and the others were wiped out now.

"Why has there not been any reports on the city wall yet? Go to the palace gate to see if there is any reports on the city wall!" Jiajing couldn't sit still, it had been more than half an hour, and there was no movement at all.

"Yes, the emperor!" Lu Fang also knew that Jiajing was anxious and could only do it.

And Zhang Hao quickly met with Zhang Rong.

"Dad!" Zhang Hao came over, turned over and dismounted, and shouted happily.

"Hey, are you hurt?" Zhang Rong was very happy. One was that he won the battle, and the other was that his son stood in front of him with a lively life.

"I'm fine, are there any casualties? In addition, how are you cleaning here? There has not been any cleaning in the north yet. I guess there is a big man in the north. It will be bright soon. We need to clean it. Otherwise, the credit may be snatched away!" Zhang Hao stood there, reminding Zhang Rong.

"Well, there are not many casualties. My father is planning to go to the north forest. I'm waiting for you to come back. I got less than 2,000 war horses here. Where are you?" Zhang Rong said and looked behind Zhang Hao.

"If there are less than 1,000 horses, you can ride one horse with two people. Just walk slowly, otherwise it will take a long time to walk!" Zhang Hao also turned his head and looked behind and said to Zhang Rong.

Zhang Rong nodded, and then began to order the soldiers to get on their horses and take the spoils to clean the north forest.

"Dad, have you sent someone to inform the city?" Zhang Hao asked Zhang Rong on his horse.

"I've been sent. I've just been there. I guess there will be a scout cavalry out when dawn, and we will be able to return to the city at that time!" Zhang Rong said to Zhang Hao with a smile. Zhang Rong was very satisfied with Zhang Hao's current performance. Soon, they arrived at the Beidaying side, and the soldiers began to dismount and clean the battlefield. At this moment, the sky was already slightly bright.

"Report, General, I just went to the city wall to report. The Secretary said, let us wait until dawn and wait until the reconnaissance cavalry is released before deciding whether to return to the city!" A messenger rode to Zhang Rong's side, turned over and dismounted, and reported.

"Yeah, okay!" Zhang Rong nodded. This was the case. Zhang Rong did not feel abnormal.

But Ding Rukui in the city was very anxious at this moment. The messenger who just came to report said it clearly. The enemy in the north of the Tatars was completely wiped out, more than half of the enemy in the east and south were destroyed, and the enemy in the west had retreated. In other words, not only Zhang Rong and others have lifted the siege of the capital, but also won the battle. This means that his previous strategy was failed. How would the emperor view him? He only thought he was incompetent and did not dare to go out of the city to fight. He didn't know whether he could sit firmly as the Secretary of the House!

Ding Rukui was very anxious and wanted to find someone to discuss it, so he went straight to Yan Song's mansion. He was told that Yan Song was not in the mansion, but went to the palace. Ding Rukui rode his horse and ran to the palace gate. When he arrived at the palace gate, the sky was already slightly bright. It was estimated that there were only two quarters of an hour left, and the palace gate was about to open.

Ding Rukui also discovered Yan Song, but also found that there were so many people here. Ding Rukui was more cautious and dared not report the news about Zhang Rong's big victory.

"Shangshu Ding, what's the war outside the city?" Xu Pengju first discovered Ding Rukui, so he shouted loudly. Yan Song was stunned when he saw Ding Rukui coming. Ding Rukui calmed down and bowed to Xu Pengju and said, "Duke Wei, I don't know the situation outside now. The genius has just dawned. I'll come to find Master Yan to discuss matters."

He got off the horse as he said that, and then walked towards Yan Song.

"Gei Master Yan, please speak with me!" Ding Rukui calmed down, walked to Yan Song, and spoke.

"Okay!" Yan Song nodded, turned around and walked to the side, and Ding Rukui followed,

After walking far enough, Ding Rukui also looked at the back and confirmed that the people behind could not hear it. Ding Rukui said in a low voice: "Ge Lao, last night, Zhang Yong won the battle. The Tatars in the north were almost wiped out. In the east and south, more than half of the Tatars were injured and killed. In the west, the Tatars in the capital retreated, and the siege of the capital was lifted!"

"What?" Yan Song was originally very cunning, but he was shocked by the news brought by Ding Rukui and won?

"Ge Master, what should I do now?" Ding Rukui showed panic at this time, scared.

"A good thing, winning is of course a good thing. Didn't you go to Zhang Rong yesterday? You agreed to him to fight. Now he is going to fight, and you have a credit for you!" Yan Song reacted quickly and said to Ding Rukui.

"Ah?" Ding Rukui looked at Yan Song in surprise. Is this okay?

"This is a good thing. You are the main defense of the capital. Now that you have defended it, you will certainly have a contribution. Zhang Rong went to war and you also said that this is also a contribution. What are you nervous to do? The Ming Dynasty won a great victory, which is a good thing for everyone to celebrate. Why are you nervous?" Yan Song reminded Ding Rukui again and said. Ding Rukui still looked at Yan Song in confusion, but he already knew something in his heart.

"The palace gate is about to open. You have to report this joy in person." Yan Song continued to remind Ding Rukui and said.

"Thank you for your reminder. It's really a good thing, but, hey, it's a bargain for them." Ding Rukui was very happy, but Zhang Rong was unable to die outside the city, which made him feel very sorry.

"What's the cheaper one? People are fighting for it with their lives. Don't say it. We want to congratulate them. This is the end of this matter!

However, they cannot be allowed to enter the city now. The Tatars were attacked last night, so Zhang Rong took advantage of it. The Tatars suffered such great casualties. Altan Khan of the Tatars would not let them go so easily. It is a little time to delay a little time. In addition, if you release the scout cavalry, as long as you find that the Tatars' army is coming to the capital, don't let them into the city easily." Yan Song touched his beard and said, since he won last night, if the Tatar army dared to come during the day, could Zhang Rong still win?

"Yes, Master Ge, Master Ge, Master Ge, I'll release the scout cavalry out now." Ding Rukui bowed to Yan Song excitedly at this moment.

"If you ask the people below to do it, you will also report the good news to the emperor!" Yan Song said to Ding Rukui with a smile,

Then he walked towards the ministers with his hands behind his back.

"There are you, such a big happy event, what are you worried about? Ministers, Ding Rukui just reported good news, but it has not been confirmed yet, so I dare not say anything. British Duke Zhang Rong may have won the battle outside!" Yan Song came to the ministers, blamed Ding Rukui first, and then looked at the ministers and said.

"Ah, but really?" Xu Pengju stared at Ding Rukui excitedly and asked.

"The prince returned to China, the messenger said that he annihilated many enemies, and the Tatars outside the capital did retreat, but it is not sure whether they were defeated by Zhang Long, or because of their correspondence with the emperor, the Tatars retreated independently!" Ding Rukui also thought of a plan at this moment and said to Xu Pengju.

"That must have won. My son-in-law won't lie. He will not dare to report military merits." Xu Pengju said happily at this moment, and the other ministers also nodded. They knew very well who Zhang Rong was.

"It just so happens that the palace gate will be opened later. When the emperor wakes up, he will be happy to hear this good news, and our errands will be easier to handle." Yan Song also looked at them with a smile on his face and said.

"Yes!"

"Yes, yes, let the emperor know this news soon!"

"It's good news."...

The ministers also nodded frequently and said yes, because the court was too depressed during this period.

On the Tatar side, the Tatar retreating troops also sent a messenger to quickly pass on the news that the Beida camp was wiped out to Altan Khan. When Altan Khan heard this, he ran down from the tent.

"What did you say? The Beida Camp in the capital was completely wiped out?" Altan Khan grabbed the messenger tightly, his eyes glared. Altan Khan was originally big and thick, with a fierce look on his face. His fierceness scared the messenger so much that he couldn't speak.

"Say!" Altan Khan grabbed the messenger and shook it hard a few times.

"Khan, it's true. No one escaped from Beidaying. Dongdaying sent 5,000 people to rescue him. More than half of the casualties were killed and killed. The Ming Dynasty had a new weapon, which was powerful. It would explode with the Ming Dynasty's red-clothed cannonballs!" The messenger came back to his senses at this moment and said tremblingly.

"Where is my son, where is my son Huang Taiji?" Altan Khan shouted, shook him again.

"I don't know, I found no trace of him. If I were still alive, I must have escaped into the dense forest!" The messenger was about to cry. If he had known, he would not have come to spread the news. It would be unlucky.

"Impossible. I have more than 20,000 elite soldiers around my son. How could it be completely wiped out by the Ming army? There are not many troops in the capital!" Altan Khan shouted in disbelief. At this time, some generals also came into the tent, and I don't know what's going on.
