Win the Ding 1617
Chapter 240 This is our Julu and Hongqiao!
"My lord, the results of this battle have been counted. A total of 130 first-level and second-level armored soldiers were killed. Among them, the thief's head Niulu Zhangjing was strong, and he was divided into nine Boshiku soldiers, 19 thief slaves Baibayala soldiers, and another There were 170 slaves of Yu Ding's family who were three poles, and they seized 210 five long and short knives, 34 bows and arrows, and fifteen flags. My lord, there are more than [-] mules and horses, of which more than [-] can be used as war horses. There are more than [-] people rescued from the slaves, most of whom are young and strong. There are also some property, please let me know how to deal with it?"
Hearing Huang Yishan, who came back from the attack, report the result of the battle to the guard, the people in the tent were fine, only Wang Desheng who was outside the tent was a little restless.Even if the entire army of Ji Town is on top of this kind of victory, it may not be possible to obtain such a result.
Those flags, weapons, bows and arrows, and armor piled up in the open space of the camp, especially those armors, such as iron wool armor, iron wool armor, willow iron armor, chain mail, all of them are better than the cotton armor on my body. Comes excellent.Although many armors were riddled with pills, but with a little repair, it was a good armor.
This group of people is really too ruthless.
Wang Desheng went to the front of the formation to watch the auxiliary soldiers go forward to clean the battlefield. When he saw the Tartar soldiers go up, they would stab them, no matter whether they were dead or alive, and then strip off their armor and count the results of the battle. What puzzled him was, These auxiliary soldiers didn't even look at the head of the Tartar and the belongings found on his body, but just threw it aside, and used a thin bamboo stick to poke into the Tartar's wound to measure it carefully, and then put it on the paper. Make a note of it.
"It's really strange to do these things here without beheading or searching for property!"
Wang Desheng has already made up his mind, if this group of people is in a hurry to leave, he will go up and chop off a few heads of slaves to repay their merits. This is the real head of a real slave!
According to the Ming Dynasty military merit reward system, if an ordinary sergeant captures and slashes the head of a gold soldier, he is now a Qing soldier, he will be promoted to the first level, and will be awarded silver and cloth, up to three levels.Leading officer.There are 500 generals and thousands of commanders, and their subordinates capture ten slaves and thieves, and they will be promoted to one level.For every [-] people who lead the army, they will be promoted to one level, and for every additional [-] people, they will be promoted to one level.Up to three poles in total, the second-level actual grant, the first-level administrative position, and rewards of silver and cloth.What's more, there are those Bayara soldiers and Niu Luzhangjing's first-level banners, etc. He has already made up his mind, no matter what, he must get this credit!
"Where is Mr. Wang Qian? Please Mr. Wang!" [
The repeated summons in the big tent made Wang Desheng stand up and look inside the tent.
"Mr. Wang Qian, a certain family came to the capital to serve the king, and they are not very familiar with the military situation system in the mainland. From what you can see, what should we do after we finish this battle?"
(As far as the king is ordered, he is actually here to give himself an official title and name.)
After hearing the Gaojushuai case, Shouhan asked such a question, but Wang Desheng didn't know what to say.
"My lord, go! Go now! Or enter the city and stick to it!"
"Why?"
"My lord, I have fought against Jiannu for many years, and I know their surname well. This generation relies on the sharpness of their horses, and they respond to each other flexibly. There must be a small group of Jiannu riding dozens of miles away. Once they echo, thousands People and horses are coming sooner or later, although your lord's troops are brave and their weapons are sharp, but facing thousands of slaves, I'm afraid the chances of winning are not great, so I dare you to suggest that your lord leave immediately!"
"What if it's too late to leave?"
"Then enter the city and stick to it! Nearby is Hexi Wucheng. This city is strong, and there are banknotes. There is no shortage of firearms and troops. After entering the city, you can rely on the strong city to hold on until Jiannu withdraws."
"Aside from smearing oil on the soles of the feet and entering the city as a coward, is there any other way?" Gao Liu, the commander of the firecrackers at the side, pushed Wang Desheng away.
Fortunately, Mr. Wang Qian has already cultivated his face to defend against the direct fire of the Kron cannon. He pretended not to hear Gao Liu's sarcasm, and cursed in his heart, and you will know when the brigade's Tartars arrive. !
However, after all, Li Shouhan was not comparable to an officer like Gao Liu, so he listened to Wang Desheng's opinion and sent someone to Hexi Wucheng to contact him, asking the guards to open the city gate and let his troops enter the city.
However, the answer of the officials in the city was dumbfounding.
Although they saw Jiannu who almost wiped out a Niulu on the top of the city, the fear in their hearts still made them make such a decision.
On the grounds that the city gate was filled with bricks and debris to cut off traffic, the army's request to enter the city was declined. [
"Tell them that our army can defend against the enemy outside the city, as long as they open the city gate and accept the plundered refugees!"
Shou Han was a little sullen.
However, the officials on the top of the city still have two words, no.
At this time, the sun was already in the west, and if a large group of people, horses and vehicles drove overnight, there might be accidents. If they were chased and killed by Jiannu cavalry, the vision would be difficult to distinguish in the twilight, and the consequences would be disastrous.
"Camp here! I don't believe it, those Manchu Tartars are three-headed and six-armed!" In a rage, Shou Han came up with the title of "My Great Qing" in later generations.
People began to measure the terrain near the temporary camp just now, preparing to camp for defense.
A few cavalrymen rode their horses to the gathering place where the refugees who had been captured by Jiannuzheng's white flag had just now known that they had been rescued by the Ming army, and they were feeling apprehensive and fearful when the arrival of the cavalrymen caused another commotion.
"My general wants to camp here. We need some men who dig ditches. No matter men or women, as long as they can complete the work, they can eat enough! There are oily vegetables and rice! There is also a catty of rice and a tael of salt as wages every day. !"
The leading cavalry chief yelled a few times to and fro among the crowd, which aroused the commotion of the refugees.When these people were taken into captivity, they were already grown objects, and they had food in their stomachs. Jiannu would cook some porridge and water for them every day, as long as they didn't starve to death. (This is also a kind of cruel elimination. Those who can survive in this environment are often of good physical fitness. Moreover, in such an environment, in order to survive, people can only abandon their dignity and lay down their mental health for the enslavement of the Qing Dynasty. Base.)
"I go!"
"If you really care about your food, a fool will not go!"
"go with!"
A few people in the crowd took the lead, and immediately responded together. In troubled times, there is a place where you can have a full meal, not to mention the so-called wages and rice you can get?
Almost all of the more than 3000 refugees returned to the canal with the cavalry.
According to the area demarcated by the staff officers with lime, the soil was excavated and the camp was built.
And that Wang Qianzong of Ji Town, Wang Desheng, is at the moment in Shou Han's big tent, quite firmly rejecting Shou Han's kindness.
"My lord, you are going to fight here, and it is time to employ people. Although my brothers and I are not as good as the elite of your department, it is still possible to carry grain, grass, equipment, medicine and so on. I hope you will take care of me!"
Hearing these rhetoric, Shou Han's heart is naturally clear, but he never dared to believe the words of these soldiers.However, face-saving needs to be passable.
"Based on Wang Qian's bravery, it is natural to rely on it, and you must let you kill the enemy and make meritorious service." Hearing Shou Han's words, Wang Desheng secretly groaned in his heart!It is not easy to recycle the big talk.
Fortunately, Shou Han just paused for a while.
"It's just that there is such a big event that requires the help of my brother."
In fact, the defenders just want to send away this group of stragglers, so that they won't shake the morale of the army by shouting and screaming in the camp during a fight.
Ten of the captured Qing army horses were given to Wang Desheng, and a few of the killed Jiannu swords and flags were randomly selected and handed over to him, "Please pay homage to Zhang Shixian and Zhang Junmen of Ji Town on my behalf. Just say that I am here to kill the Tartars, if he wants to make a contribution, he can lead his troops to support him!"
Leading the horses sent by the Nanzhong Army and holding the captured swords and guns, Wang Desheng was overjoyed, "This group of idiots, I will chop off a few heads in a while, and please reward me when I go back. As for you, I will give you a reward." I will burn paper and burn incense for you!"
As night fell quietly, hundreds of bonfires were lit on the river embankment, illuminating the land brightly. In the light of the fire, the constant crowds dumped the soil in the soil baskets and cloth bags on the designated positions, and According to the requirements of the South China Army, someone compacted the soil and rammed it into a low wall.In addition to digging, some people dug the pit into a four-foot-wide and five-foot-deep trench according to the requirements. A grown man can't cross it in one step. He has to jump down and climb up again.The sounds of human voices, tools colliding, and the crackling of firewood burning firewood are also in full swing.
"The diggers come out in two teams first, the ones who move the soil, the ones who ram the wall, and the ones who dig trenches, and the same two teams come out. Let's eat!"
With 200 people as a team, the civilians who participated in the construction of the positions are organized into a team. This is the so-called military law department. The advantage of this is that the civilians will not be lazy and fight indiscriminately.
As advertised when recruiting peasants, the peasants digging, transporting soil, and ramming the walls looked at the rice and vegetable soup that the cooks brought in large buckets, and smelled the scent of cooking oil. Many people couldn't help being stunned. in a dream.
"Each person is full of rice, and a bowl of hot salty meat soup. Eat quickly, and change to another brother after eating!"
Accompanied by Wang Bao, Huang Yishan and other military officers, Shou Han patrolled along the preset positions. Under the huge temptation of having a full meal, the peasants from all over the place glowed with soaring energy, and many of them left behind. The bowls and chopsticks picked up the soil basket, pick and hoe, and rushed to the construction site he had designated.The reason? It's because Gao Liu yelled again during the meal.
"The general has an order that anyone who completes the work before dawn will have a supper and meat to eat! An extra catty of rice will be added to the wages!"
"My lord, according to this progress, before dawn tomorrow, we can complete the construction of three outer trenches and two earthen walls, and the placement of those artillery positions can also be completed."
"Abao, Yishan, tomorrow, at dawn, we will be fighting alone. It is impossible to count on those inland officers and soldiers. Thousands of people may come, or even tens of thousands of people. Are you afraid?"
Before Wang Bao could speak, Huang Yishan, the battalion officer of the cavalry battalion, shook his shoulders and dismissed him: "Master, since the founding of our army, has any battle been fought without a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood? Our brothers , Didn’t that roll out of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood?”
"However, the so-called braided soldiers of the inland officers and soldiers are less than [-], and they are invincible." Shou Han continued to tease Huang Yishan.
"My lord, are these braided soldiers more difficult to deal with than the Siamese war elephants? In the battle of Surin Mansion that day, Commander Wang led us to fight against the Siamese war elephants!"
On the contrary, Wang Bao was quite calm, and after intervening to salute the guard, "My lord, when you raised your army as an orphan with a weak crown, the enemy you faced was not stronger than us? Didn't they all lose one by one? Today we are facing the same situation. Although the enemy is said to be strong for a while, but as long as we fight hard, the enemy may not be able to withstand it!"
"well said!"
Shou Han applauded with high five.
"Do you still remember the battle I said before that Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, shocked the princes? The Battle of Julu, the Nine Battles of Zhanghan. The princes did not dare to fight, and just watched from the sidelines. Pay homage."
"Today, this is the giant deer of our South China Army?!"
Gao Liu, the commander of the firecrackers, exclaimed with some surprise.
"Not only the Julu, but also the Hongqiao of our army!"
These officers have all heard of the Battle of Julu. It was the battle that laid the foundation for Xiang Yu's hegemony. But what kind of battle is this Hongqiao?
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he remembered to say something bald, and Shou Han had no choice but to continue speaking vaguely.
"I heard from an old man that an official nicknamed Li Ergouzi was ordered to take thousands of newly recruited miscellaneous troops to rescue a certain rich place, which had been surrounded by more than [-] thieves. Yue, if it weren't for the convenience of the waterway, he would not be able to enter the city. One day, when it rained heavily, the rebels rushed towards the Hongqiao where he was stationed. There was a battle between thieves, and the battle was unprecedentedly fierce. In his playbook, it is said that thieves are dragged along with each other when they die, and their guns cannot be ignited. He was defeated! From then on, people can hold a candle to him."
"My lord, this battle is also my Nanzhong Army's elation, and I will show it to the officers and generals in the interior to see!"
"That's right, here is not the shitty Hexiwu Town, but our Julu, our Hongqiao!"
"Our giant deer, our Hongqiao!"
As the guards raised their arms and shouted, the nearby soldiers also roared loudly. As for what is a giant deer and what is a Hongqiao, let's leave it alone!
When the sky turned pale, the bonfire finally burned out the last bit of heat, emitting wisps of smoke to welcome the arrival of dawn.
Three incoherent ditches and two earthen walls have been constructed.
There are intentionally left undug passages between the trenches, but the trenches and the earthen walls are not connected to each other. On the opposite side or on both sides of these undug passages, there are emplacements for Dafo Langji or six-pound guns. A large amount of "medicine" is piled up here.
The earthen walls are constructed according to the standards of parapets.The soil excavated from the trenches was rammed into a low wall to facilitate the gunners to shoot outwards, and at the same time reduce the lethality of Jiannu bows and arrows.
This is after the South Central Army made simple modifications to the Dutch fortifications in Zeelandia City and restored them here.In order to prevent the Qing soldiers from attacking Hexi Wucheng first, defenses were also set up for Hexi Wuzhuan City in the west, with the dark muzzle pointing there.The ditches and parapets continued below the embankment.
Seeing that the hard work of the night finally came to fruition, thousands of people cheered in unison.
The peasants were led to eat on the embankment, and the guard led his subordinates to allocate defensive areas.
This time, not only the firecrackers are showing their power, but those big Buddha machines and cannons are going to show their power!All defenses are based on artillery positions, assisted by firecrackers, sword shields and long spears.The cavalry and the baggage corps acted as the general reserve and guard in the battalion.Hundreds of civilian husbands were selected as auxiliary soldiers.
After Kankan allocated the defensive positions, there was a faint sound of gunfire in the distance, followed by another sound from far and near.With the sound of the guns, the scouts deployed more than ten miles away to the south galloped back.
"The Tartars are coming!"
A dust head jumped out from the skyline, and then formed a huge cloud of smoke, the smoke was getting closer, and then the earth trembled faintly, as if several horseshoes were hitting the ground, making the whole earth tremble.Almost at the same time, red and white banners sprang up on the horizon, and there were two huge banners looming.
Huge smoke and dust, like a sandstorm rising from the flat ground, shrouded the fluttering red and white flags. Under the corners of the flags, there were all Qing soldiers wearing red and white armor. Looking at the posture on the edge, it seemed that all All the cavalry of the Qing army were galloping on their horses. For a while, no sound could be heard between the sky and the earth, only the sound of horseshoes like rain and thunder.
The Qing army used elite cavalry as the vanguard to clear the way, followed by large groups of cavalry and infantry, followed by a large supply group, and finally fine cavalry behind them, bringing a large number of people with them.
In the Qing army, there were also many Mongols, some wearing willow-leaf armor or ring armor, red tasseled caps or petal helmets, and all armored soldiers were cavalry.The soldiers were led by Zhuang Zhuang who carried a small black tassel flag on his back.The Mongolian infantrymen in the team were wearing armor, wearing red tasseled caps on their heads, and ran towards the north with bowed legs against the rising sun.
In the marching team, the two armored flags became the core part, fluttering in the wind swaggeringly.Around the two banners, dozens of white armored soldiers and Kabashi soldiers served as guards. Through the telescope lens of everyone, it was found that there were seven or eight white armored soldiers wearing and holding them, which were similar to those of the Nanzhong Army. The soldiers are generally two!
"It actually attracted two Jiala Tartars! I knew it was a group of scourges!"
On the top of the city, the officials watching the formation hiding behind the crenel saw the banner of Bianya, and couldn't help but feel a heat between their legs, and a stream of "liquid" involuntarily flowed out.
Two flags came straight to Hexiwu Town, and the officials turned pale with horror. They couldn't help chanting the merciful Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, and made a great wish of [-] volumes of scriptures and three temples. , as long as the city can be kept from being captured by the Tartars, it is willing to go bankrupt!
Jialazhangjing Tuolun with a red flag, sitting under the flag, looked at the opposite position triumphantly, "I finally arrived, and I didn't let you run away!"

Hearing Huang Yishan, who came back from the attack, report the result of the battle to the guard, the people in the tent were fine, only Wang Desheng who was outside the tent was a little restless.Even if the entire army of Ji Town is on top of this kind of victory, it may not be possible to obtain such a result.
Those flags, weapons, bows and arrows, and armor piled up in the open space of the camp, especially those armors, such as iron wool armor, iron wool armor, willow iron armor, chain mail, all of them are better than the cotton armor on my body. Comes excellent.Although many armors were riddled with pills, but with a little repair, it was a good armor.
This group of people is really too ruthless.
Wang Desheng went to the front of the formation to watch the auxiliary soldiers go forward to clean the battlefield. When he saw the Tartar soldiers go up, they would stab them, no matter whether they were dead or alive, and then strip off their armor and count the results of the battle. What puzzled him was, These auxiliary soldiers didn't even look at the head of the Tartar and the belongings found on his body, but just threw it aside, and used a thin bamboo stick to poke into the Tartar's wound to measure it carefully, and then put it on the paper. Make a note of it.
"It's really strange to do these things here without beheading or searching for property!"
Wang Desheng has already made up his mind, if this group of people is in a hurry to leave, he will go up and chop off a few heads of slaves to repay their merits. This is the real head of a real slave!
According to the Ming Dynasty military merit reward system, if an ordinary sergeant captures and slashes the head of a gold soldier, he is now a Qing soldier, he will be promoted to the first level, and will be awarded silver and cloth, up to three levels.Leading officer.There are 500 generals and thousands of commanders, and their subordinates capture ten slaves and thieves, and they will be promoted to one level.For every [-] people who lead the army, they will be promoted to one level, and for every additional [-] people, they will be promoted to one level.Up to three poles in total, the second-level actual grant, the first-level administrative position, and rewards of silver and cloth.What's more, there are those Bayara soldiers and Niu Luzhangjing's first-level banners, etc. He has already made up his mind, no matter what, he must get this credit!

"The diggers come out in two teams first, the ones who move the soil, the ones who ram the wall, and the ones who dig trenches, and the same two teams come out. Let's eat!"

"Abao, Yishan, tomorrow, at dawn, we will be fighting alone. It is impossible to count on those inland officers and soldiers. Thousands of people may come, or even tens of thousands of people. Are you afraid?"
Before Wang Bao could speak, Huang Yishan, the battalion officer of the cavalry battalion, shook his shoulders and dismissed him: "Master, since the founding of our army, has any battle been fought without a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood?

"However, the so-called braided soldiers of the inland officers and soldiers are less than [-], and they are invincible." Shou Han continued to tease Huang Yishan.

There are intentionally left undug passages between the trenches, but the trenches and the earthen walls are not connected to each other. On the opposite side or on both sides of these undug passages, there are emplacements for Dafo Langji or six-pound guns. A large amount of "medicine" is piled up here.
The earthen walls are constructed according to the standards of parapets.The soil excavated from the trenches was rammed into a low wall to facilitate the gunners to shoot outwards, and at the same time reduce the lethality of Jiannu bows and arrows.
This is after the South Central Army made simple modifications to the Dutch fortifications in Zeelandia City and restored them here.In order to prevent the Qing soldiers from attacking Hexi Wucheng first, defenses were also set up for Hexi Wuzhuan City in the west, with the dark muzzle pointing there.The ditches and parapets continued below the embankment.
Seeing that the hard work of the night finally came to fruition, thousands of people cheered in unison.
The peasants were led to eat on the embankment, and the guard led his subordinates to allocate defensive areas.
This time, not only the firecrackers are showing their power, but those big Buddha machines and cannons are going to show their power!All defenses are based on artillery positions, assisted by firecrackers, sword shields and long spears.The cavalry and the baggage corps acted as the general reserve and guard in the battalion.Hundreds of civilian husbands were selected as auxiliary soldiers.
After Kankan allocated the defensive positions, there was a faint sound of gunfire in the distance, followed by another sound from far and near.With the sound of the guns, the scouts deployed more than ten miles away to the south galloped back.
"The Tartars are coming!"
A dust head jumped out from the skyline, and then formed a huge cloud of smoke, the smoke was getting closer, and then the earth trembled faintly, as if several horseshoes were hitting the ground, making the whole earth tremble.Almost at the same time, red and white banners sprang up on the horizon, and there were two huge banners looming.
Huge smoke and dust, like a sandstorm rising from the flat ground, shrouded the fluttering red and white flags. Under the corners of the flags, there were all Qing soldiers wearing red and white armor. Looking at the posture on the edge, it seemed that all All the cavalry of the Qing army were galloping on their horses. For a while, no sound could be heard between the sky and the earth, only the sound of horseshoes like rain and thunder.
The Qing army used elite cavalry as the vanguard to clear the way, followed by large groups of cavalry and infantry, followed by a large supply group, and finally fine cavalry behind them, bringing a large number of people with them.
In the Qing army, there were also many Mongols, some wearing willow-leaf armor or ring armor, red tasseled caps or petal helmets, and all armored soldiers were cavalry.The soldiers were led by Zhuang Zhuang who carried a small black tassel flag on his back.The Mongolian infantrymen in the team were wearing armor, wearing red tasseled caps on their heads, and ran towards the north with bowed legs against the rising sun.
In the marching team, the two armored flags became the core part, fluttering in the wind swaggeringly.Around the two banners, dozens of white armored soldiers and Kabashi soldiers served as guards. Through the telescope lens of everyone, it was found that there were seven or eight white armored soldiers wearing and holding them, which were similar to those of the Nanzhong Army. The soldiers are generally two!
"It actually attracted two Jiala Tartars! I knew it was a group of scourges!"
On the top of the city, the officials watching the formation hiding behind the crenel saw the banner of Bianya, and couldn't help but feel a heat between their legs, and a stream of "liquid" involuntarily flowed out.
Two flags came straight to Hexiwu Town, and the officials turned pale with horror. They couldn't help chanting the merciful Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, and made a great wish of [-] volumes of scriptures and three temples. , as long as the city can be kept from being captured by the Tartars, it is willing to go bankrupt!
Jialazhangjing Tuolun with a red flag, sitting under the flag, looked at the opposite position triumphantly, "I finally arrived, and I didn't let you run away!"
