Chapter 893
Zhang Shun couldn't help being surprised when Zuo Guangxian, the commander in chief of Shaanxi Province, led the cavalry to appear on the battlefield.

Just as Zhang Shun expected, the officers and soldiers appeared on the left side of the rebel army, that is, to the south of Huayin City, near Huashan.

Due to the topography of Huayin City, there are mountains on the right and water on the left, high on the right and low on the left.From the foot of Huashan Mountain to the north to the coast of Weihe River, the terrain shows a gradual downward trend.

Zuo Guang first led the cavalry to occupy the side close to Huashan Mountain, naturally in order to take advantage of the higher terrain of the place and take advantage of the opportunity to rush towards the rebel formation.

These were all within Zhang Shun's expectations, but what he didn't expect was that so many officers, soldiers and cavalry came.

Originally, Zhang Shun thought that the number of officers and soldiers who came to the rescue could be as many as [-], even if Zuo Guang had better skills first.

The art of war says: roll up your armor and move forward, stay away day and night, double the road, and fight for profit for a hundred miles, then capture three generals; General, half of the method is perfect; if you fight for profit within thirty miles, you will reach two-thirds.

Seventy miles from Huazhou to Huayin, if half of the officers and soldiers who came to support arrived on time, it would be good.

And Zuo Guangxian has a total of more than [-] people under his command, deducting [-] people from Huayin, and leaving [-] people to garrison Huazhou, then Zuo Guangxian can only use [-] people.

Excluding the soldiers who fell behind along the way, it is estimated that only [-] officers and soldiers arrived.

However, due to the large number of cavalry under Zuo Guangxian's command, in order to support Huayin as soon as possible this time, a total of [-] cavalry were dispatched, which caught Zhang Shun by surprise.

However, Zhang Shun is not a vegetarian either.After discovering the movement of Zuo Guangxian's cavalry, he decided to advance the front line, oppress Huayin City, and force Zuo Guangxian to fight the rebels when the officers and soldiers were exhausted.

How did Zuo Guangxian not know Zhang Shun's plan?If he came from afar, if he avoided the battle, wouldn't it make the already panic-stricken soldiers in the city even more panic-stricken?
If the guerrilla general Zhao Guangyuan couldn't hold on alone and surrendered the "Shun Bandit" face to face, then what kind of face would Zuo Guangxian have to lead these more than ten thousand troops?
It should be noted that since the emergence of the governor system in the Ming Dynasty, the command power of the general army is almost non-existent.Except for the veteran general Cao Wenzhao who returned to his glory in the past two years and served as the dispatch of "supervising generals", no military general has ever received such treatment.

He Zuo Guangxian was able to lead these more than [-] troops. Except for the governor of the five provinces, Hong Chengchou, who was captured, the governor of Shaanxi, Gan Xuekuo, who did not know the soldiers, and the new governor of the three sides, Liang Tingdong, were fully on guard against the Jin army. day.

If he hadn't been in a hurry to follow the authority, Zuo Guangxian, the Shaanxi general, would have had a bad reputation.

If he let the rebels take Huayin City face to face, what would happen? Zuo Guang shuddered after thinking about it first.

"Attack! Suppress the thief's left wing!" Zuo Guang frowned first, then ordered loudly.

Not long after, the officers and soldiers sent out more than a thousand cavalry, taking advantage of the terrain to gallop.

"Heh!" Seeing this, Zhang Shun said disdainfully, "If we fight for profit for hundreds of miles, we will capture the three generals. The officers and soldiers are already at the end of their strength, so why should we be afraid?"

Gao Guiying heard the words, and immediately repeated: "The officers and soldiers are at the end of their strength, so why not be afraid!"

The other generals were taken aback when they heard the words, and immediately ordered the soldiers to shout in unison.

In fact, it is not easy to shout in unison, but fortunately, the rebels have used this to boost their morale many times.Therefore, some soldiers were selected early and taught the method of shouting.

One person shouts, but a hundred people follow.Hundreds of people call and thousands of people follow.If this happened again and again, the voices gathered at once, and the sound shook the sky. With the help of Huashan's power, the voice rolled and echoed continuously, just like a nine-day order!
The officers and soldiers turned pale immediately, Zuo Guangxian's face changed, and he couldn't help but ordered: "What a thief, you have some morals! The generals listen to my order, and attack the thief immediately without delay!"

Originally, he wanted to harass and boost the morale of the city. He waited for others to rest for some horsepower, and then it would not be too late to make a fuss.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Shun quickly broke through the falsehood of the officers and soldiers, and Zuo Guangxian, the general soldier in Shaanxi, had to use offense as defense.

As long as you can repel the enemy in front of you, the future will not be too late!Zuo Guangxian also knew that today was not the time to defeat the enemy, so he had to talk about the purpose of this time silently, for fear that because of lack of greed, he would miss a major event.

"Send the left army Bai Guang'en, change formation!" Seeing that the officers and soldiers were really fooled, Zhang Shun couldn't help shouting.

The art of war says: If I want to fight, even though the enemy has high fortifications and deep ditches, he has to fight with me, and if I attack him, I will save him.This was an upright conspiracy, so Zuo Guang couldn't help but have other choices first.

The Baiguangen Department is located in the south and is using the red Suzaku flag.

As soon as he saw the officers and soldiers moving, he knew that he would have a military order.Bai Guangen turned his head and looked, only to see the banner of the Chinese army swaying, and then a scarlet flag was raised, waving according to the agreed flag.

Bai Guangen quickly ordered: "Scatter into five formations to occupy the enemy, each formation quickly deploys repelling horses, thorns and mines, and the other firecrackers and artillery are loaded with explosives and wait for the enemy!"

Hearing the order, Bai Guangen's Ministry suddenly bloomed like plum blossoms. With Bai Guangen's middle division as the core, four small phalanxes formed in all directions.

These five phalanxes are all small hollow phalanxes, and on the outermost periphery are cannons filled with ammunition, followed by blunderbusses, francis machines, archers, and then a phalanx composed of pikemen .

Inside the phalanx, there are ammunition, supplies, the chief who directs the battle, and the swordsman who is ready to rush out to fight hand-to-hand at any time.

The first cavalry of officers and soldiers arrived in front of the rebel formation very quickly, but they did not raise their spears and sabers as many people imagined, and launched a fearless charge to the rebel formation.

Instead, he screamed strangely and waved the lasso, preparing to trap the repelling horses laid by the rebels, drag them to the ground, and clear the way for the cavalry behind to charge.

However, when they approached the place where they could trap the horse, it seemed that something tripped the horse's leg lightly, and then they remembered with loud noises.

All of a sudden, the officers and soldiers turned their backs on their backs and were in a mess.

"Line mines! It's mines from thieves!" The officers and soldiers couldn't help shouting after realizing how powerful this thing was.

That's right, this era already has gunpowder weapons such as landmines.When Zhang Shun saw these real objects and related materials, he couldn't believe his eyes. He almost thought that someone had traveled through time and changed history.

Similar to Zhang Shun's "landmine warfare" in his previous life, in this era, there are also various types of landmines, such as burning, pulling, tripping, and mechanical.

In particular, the "steel wheel fire" machine-fired mines are almost the same as the mines that rely on stampede to cause explosions in later generations.

After Zhang Shun got this kind of object, he immediately had a lot of ideas about its use.

This time, thousands of landmines of various types were deliberately manufactured and loaded on vehicles as spares to deal with the cavalry of officers and soldiers.

Most of the trip mines used this time were made of hollowed out stones.The front of the station is arranged before the scheduled battlefield. Once the enemy cavalry approaches, it will trigger a mine explosion and disrupt the formation of the officers and cavalry.

Sure enough, as Zhang Shun expected, after being hit like this, although there was not much loss, the officers and soldiers could not help turning their horses and fled back.

 I will work overtime at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning, the author will have an early rest at night, there is only one chapter today, please forgive me
