Chapter 256: Human Selfishness
Zhang Yu felt that he should be able to give the Oirats a heavy blow in the back at the last moment, and then talk about merit after the war, not only without fault, but also with minor merit.
But when his brave horse rushed out of the gate of the castle first, seeing the scene outside, he couldn't help but rein in the horse in amazement.
"Here's a live one!"
At this time, several civilian husbands saw Walaqianhu whose thigh was crushed by the dead horse, and they couldn't help shouting in ecstasy.
If the captives are found, these civilian husbands will be rewarded. If a high-ranking official can be captured, not only will he be rewarded with money and food, but he may also be exempted from hard labor.
So after seeing that the armor of the suppressed Walaman was complete, several civilian husbands cheered, picked up their knives and guns, and rushed over.
The captives were tied up, and the peasants didn't even look at Zhang Yu, who was close at hand, and happily carried the captive with a broken leg to announce the good news.
"Catch a high-ranking Tartar official!"
Fang Xing just glanced at it, then handed it over to Xin Lao Qi and Dong Pi, and greeted him by himself.
Zhang Yu looked at Fang Xing who was striding towards him, and said awkwardly, "Thanks to Mr. Fang tonight, I am very grateful."
Fang Xing looked at the defeated soldiers behind Zhang Yu, frowned and said, "Since you were attacked, why didn't you light the beacon fire?"
The best way to report an attack at night is the beacon fire, and there is also a beacon tower in Xinghe Fort.
Zhang Yu was taken aback, and those behind him were all taken aback.
Yu Sanhuo said with a dry smile: "Mr. Fang, although there was a beacon fire, the enemy's situation was so fierce at that time that we couldn't get anyone out!"
Both Zhao Xinbang and Ma Biao lowered their heads, feeling a little uncomfortable.
In fact, it's not that we can't get people out, but that at that time everyone felt that lighting the beacon fire was useless, so they just didn't bother.
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "Exactly, the sudden attack tonight caused heavy casualties to the soldiers in the fort, and the rest of them were fighting hard, and no one could be found."
Fang Xing chuckled, and said noncommittally: "Fang is just asking casually, Mr. Zhang doesn't need to explain like this."
Fang Xing's attitude is very firm, he will not blame Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu looked around, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Fang, can you make an excuse to speak?"
Fang Xing followed to the side without hesitation, and Zhang Yu said with a pleading expression: "Mr. Fang, can I borrow some heads?"
"Zheng!"
Fang Xing's first reaction was to pull out the knife, then pointed the tip of the knife at Zhang Yu, and sternly shouted: "Master Zhang, what do you want to do?"
Nima! Whose head do you want to borrow?
Do you think you are Cao Cao?
Zhang Yu turned his eyes when he saw that, especially Xin Laoqi, who was rushing over quickly, and hurriedly explained: "Mr. Fang, I just want to borrow some heads from the enemy army."
Fuck!
It turned out that I wanted to grab credit!
Fang Xing put down the knife slowly, waved his hand at the running Xin Lao Qi, and then turned around and said, "Master Zhang, Xinghe Fort was raided by the enemy tonight, this crime cannot be concealed, and I brought my brothers here Rescuing you is also taking a great risk."
Zhang Yu listened carefully and nodded frequently. He thought that Fang Xing was just laying the groundwork for the negotiation, and he was already prepared to be hit hard.
Fang Xing saw the surviving soldiers of Xinghe Fort standing there in a daze, and shook his head, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang, this battle was fought by my brothers, and I can't ignore their military exploits."
After speaking, Fang Xing walked back with big strides, leaving a dazed Zhang Yu standing there.
Zhang Yu looked up at Fang Xing's back, puzzled in his heart.
Don't you, the chief general, have the final say on the merits of those sergeants? Can they compare to the benefits I, Zhang Yu, gave you?
If Fang Xing heard his voice, he would probably scoff at it.
Daming is currently relying on the relative fairness of military merits, so that ordinary sergeants can die.
If the military merit system collapses, then the Ming army will inevitably become decadent!
"Master, we caught a few spies!"
Fang Xing had just looked at the spearmen who had been knocked into the air, and got up to look after hearing the words.
The knife was holding the end of the rope in his hand, and behind him were three men dressed in alien races whose arms were bound.
It's like a shepherd boy leading a few cows.
Fang Xing felt that the excitement during the fierce battle had begun to subside, and exhaustion surged up like a tide, so he said, "Very well, hand them over to Lao Qi, and we will discuss merits tomorrow."
After Xin Laoqi took over, he immediately sent people to kill Hubao to report, and then the whole army entered Xinghebao to rest.
Zhang Yu didn't dare to stop him again. Instead, in order to prevent Fang Xing from drugging himself in the battle report, he had to order someone to cook.
Fang Xing got a private room to rest, and he was woken up after less than half an hour of sleep.
Xin Laoqi didn't look tired at all, and was still full of energy. He said solemnly, "Master, those three are Tatars, and one of them is the guard of Alutai."
Fang Xing didn't care how this confession was made, he just kicked off the quilt angrily, stood up and cursed: "Made! Watching the Oirats raid Xinghe Fort but not reporting the letter, Arutai's ambition is obvious! "
Seventh Xin nodded and said, "Master, the three of them came to observe the movement of our army, but they discovered the traces of the Oirats by accident."
"Observe the movement of our army?"
Fang Xing sneered and said, "Let Dong Pi write a good report immediately, including the situation of these three people!"
Xin Laoqi frowned and said, "Young master, Dong Pi has no credit for this battle, why should he report the victory?" In his opinion, Fang Xing should write the victory report.
Fang Xing smiled and said, "Don't worry, Dong Pi will definitely not dare to write indiscriminately."
Xin Laoqi frowned and said, "Master, people's hearts are unpredictable!"
Fang Xing pointed to the next door, where Wang He lived.
Xin Laoqi suddenly realized. As the supervisor of the army, Wang He also needs to write a memorial and hand it over with the victory report, and this memorial will go straight to heaven, and no one can stop it.
If there is a discrepancy between Dong Pi's victory report and Wang He's memorial, then...
Sure enough, after waking up, Wang He asked to see the victory report after writing his memorial.
Dong Pi didn't dare to refuse, and was slapped in the face by Wang He afterwards.
"Mr. Fang should lead the way here, right?"
Wang He pointed at the good news and sneered. He is an eunuch, and Fang Xing's status will definitely be different after this battle, so of course he will make a good relationship for himself.
Dong Pi sneaked a sneak peek at Fang Xing, sweating profusely, and hurriedly explained: "The lower official is negligent, this is the lower official's negligence, the lower official will write it again immediately, immediately..."
Wang He looked at Fang Xing proudly, but Fang Xing just nodded and smiled to express his gratitude.
Everyone has selfish motives, Dong Pi put money on his face in the success report, Fang Xing expected this. As long as he doesn't tamper with the trend and result of this battle, Fang Xing doesn't care much.
Fang Xing has more than 3,000 people under his command, but no one knows how many of them are other people's eyes.
At least the eyes of the emperor are watching everyone, Fang Xing is very sure of this.
Fang Xing saw the sweat dripping from Dong Pi's face, so he stood up and said calmly: "I guess these two copies will not be the only ones sent out."
Hearing this, Wang He just smiled, while Dong Pi's hands were shaking.
