Win the Ding 1617

PS: The end of the month is coming soon, do you still have your monthly pass?

"Minister! My Ningxia Zhenzheng Barracks has captured Wulichuan Town! Killed hundreds of thieves, captured six Hongyi cannons, and more than [-] mules and horses!"

Under the attack of Sun Chuanting's spared no expense, several fortifications constructed by Zhang Nai and Luo Hu were breached one after another. Even Wulichuan Town was taken by Fumin, the commander-in-chief of Ningxia.

After paying the casualty price of more than [-] people, the banner of the Zhengzheng Barracks in Ningxia Township appeared on the tallest builder in Wulichuan Township, which looked very strange against the backdrop of rain and fireworks.

The soldiers in Ningxia Town broke open the doors from house to house, trying to find property, food, clothing, and even firewood that could be used for heating from the houses. Everything was their goal.As for those women, they were their first choice.However, after fighting for so long, the residents of Wulichuan Town have long since fled without a trace.

Fumin, the commander-in-chief of Ningxia Town, didn't have to go to the houses to loot. He was quite proud to look at the six Hongyi cannons captured by his soldiers who were too late to take away, or were abandoned because they were too bulky. , rather proudly cupped his fists at Sun Chuanting, who was galloping on horseback, and reported his achievements to the governor.

Breaking through Wulichuan Town, which was entrenched by thieves, captured cannons, beheaded hundreds, and more than [-] mules and horses. In the eyes of the Ming army, this is indeed a remarkable feat.

Sun Chuanting also nodded in satisfaction. Luo Hu and Zhang Nai set up five blocking positions on the mountain road of more than ten miles along the way, and he broke them one by one with his troops, which is enough to prove the results of his military training!

"As long as I can return to Shaanxi and give me another half a year, I will definitely be able to train an army of hundreds of battles for Daming! By then, there will be the Nanyue Army in the southeast and my Qin soldiers in the northwest. Armored in the world, I am proud of the country with cavalry swords and guns, and with enough money and food, why worry about the world being uncertain?"

"Where is the thief now?"

"According to the confession of the captured bandits. Zhang Nai and Luo Hu, their leaders, are the adopted sons of the intruder Li Zicheng. Right now, they are leading the remaining bandits to flee in the direction of Shuanghuaishu and Tiesuoguan, trying to continue to resist the government army!"

Zhang Nai and Luo Hu had already rebuilt two fortifications at Shuanghuaishu and Shiziping, preparing to continue to fight against Sun Chuanting here.

Looking at the autumn rain that never seems to stop.Zhang Nai was rather annoyed: "This damn rain! It would be nice if it rained earlier! If it rains in spring, how many fewer people will die in Henan, and how much more food can be harvested!" This autumn rain fell in a period of continuous drought for many years In the territory of Henan and Shaanxi, both the fighting Ming army and the rebel army were caught off guard.Various long-range weapons.From bows and arrows to firecrackers to cannons, they can't function normally. People can only throw down these weapons and pick up those knives, guns, whips, axes, and swords that are not affected by the weather and can't perform.

Not only did it affect the use of weapons, but it also affected the marching speed of the troops. Sun Chuanting kept yelling and scolding the generals under his command for not moving forward. The generals launched to behead.The reason is that these people's troops move too slowly when attacking forward, too slow!Give the thieves a chance to breathe.Let the thieves continue to repair the fortifications and treat the wounded.Let his marching team of 10,000+ people gradually become longer and longer. The forward and his supervising Chinese army have already stationed in Wulichuan Town, while Gao Jie's troops in Shanxi Town, who are serving as the guard, are still in Wulichuan Town. Walking slowly and hard in the rain inside and out.

However, nature is equal.This rain not only caused big troubles for Sun Chuanting, but also created huge troubles for the troops of Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai who were surrounded on three sides.On the muddy and slippery road, people and horses had to fight with the mud under their feet every step they took. The soldiers simply took off their shoes.It was much easier to walk barefoot in the mud, but the horses still had to wade through the mud, and the cavalry got off their horses.Caressing the wet mane on the neck of the silent comrade-in-arms, he grabbed a handful of fried black beans from the mattress cover and fed them to the horse to comfort it and increase its strength.

In Shiziping, the fourth envoy who came to convey the military order was Wu Ruyi, Li Zicheng's chief of the Chinese army.

"Angkor, needless to say, how long will it take for the Generalissimo's brigade to arrive? How long will Brother Naizi and I fight with Deaf Sun here!" Luo Hu, who had already lost his temper.With great pride, holding a sword in his hand, he commanded the auxiliary soldiers in the camp to escort thousands of captured Ming army officers and soldiers, busy picking earth, transporting stones, cutting down trees, and building fortifications.

"That's right! Little Huzi was still telling me just now that this place is called Shiziping, and his tiger is going to kill this old dog, Sun Chuanting, fiercely in Shiziping!"

"A general is most afraid of breaking the name of a place, Huzi. This place is against you, are you not afraid?" Wu Ruyi was also a little beggar picked up from the refugee team by the old Chuang Wang Gao Yingxiang. Although he was not born in a boy scout camp, he They are also members of the Chuangying generation who grew up with Luo Hu, Zhang Nai and others. They are used to speaking freely, so they made jokes about Luo Hu immediately, trying to lighten the solemn atmosphere.

"Don't be afraid! If we hadn't followed King Chuang, we would have died a long time ago and become meat in other people's mouths. I'm afraid that we would have turned into a big poop and don't know where to throw it! After living for so long, we would have earned money." Come on!" Luo Hu didn't care.

In the woods behind him, more than a thousand officers and soldiers of Zhenshan Battalion were holding huge copper bowls in their hands and queuing up to eat in front of a dozen cooking trucks.On the cooking cart that can serve two or 300 people at the same time, two huge 24-inch pots are tumbling and boiling soup, and large pieces of horse meat are rolled to the surface by the bubbles rolled up by the flames at the bottom of the pot from time to time, floating and sinking. .

The soldiers ate steamed buns that were almost the size of an adult man's foot with the hot horse broth. Hot food and meat food gave them enough energy in this weather to keep them fighting.

The configuration of these cooking carts is also one of Luo Hu's achievements in Shandong.For these vehicles that can burn coal and chop firewood to make food and soup for the soldiers, Luo Hu has deeply experienced the benefits of them when dealing with Abatai in Shandong. No matter how far they travel, as long as they can stay for more than an hour, It can provide hot water and hot soup for the soldiers, so that everyone can eat comfortably and recover and maintain physical strength.

Today, among the hundreds of thousands of rebels, only he and Wang Long can be equipped with cooking vehicles according to the organizational system, and most of the remaining battalions and posts are only equipped with a few decorative vehicles for the use of the commanders.

When he retreated along the way, he consciously set fire to the houses along the way.It was also a fire that first solved the problem of fuel for heating and cooking for the Ming army. As for the few wells, they honestly and unceremoniously threw a few corpses of the Ming army, so that the Ming army who occupied here had no firewood to keep warm. Cook.There is no clean water to drink, and they are constantly consuming their vigor and physical strength!

There was no place to rest, no firewood to keep warm, and nothing to eat.There is no place to plunder and kill.On the contrary, corpses and numbered numbers kept being carried down in front of them, further depressing the morale and fighting spirit of the Ming army's various departments in this rainy weather.

Watching the soldiers and horses of the battalions constantly demolishing the houses inside and outside Wulichuan Town, smashing the windows, beams, purlins and other wood to make fires for heating and cooking, Sun Chuanting led the generals of the towns to make a round of inspections, but it was difficult to stop them.If he issued an order to stop it, the soldiers stared at him: "Master Supervisor, you told us to fight as hard as we can without batting an eyelid, but you have to give me a bite of this hot meal, right? You have to let the brothers warm up before going on." Go?" If someone used such words to deal with him, wouldn't it break his prestige?Just turn a blind eye and close one eye!

"Send an order to the rear army to bring up the cannons in the car battalion! More gunpowder and shells must be brought in!" Sun Chuanting ordered the deputy general who supervised the bidding of the Chinese army.Go to the car camp to deliver the order.

Because it is too bulky, the artillery of the car camp is still far behind, and the gunpowder and shells are transported in the supply camp.

The Ming troops in the towns along the way had suffered enough from Luo Hu and Zhang Nai's cannons, and they all asked to mobilize Cheying's cannons to bombard the bandits' blocking positions, and let them have a taste of our cannons.Because of the difficulty in transporting, Zhang Nai's artillery battalion abandoned more than [-] large and small cannons. No gunpowder was left either!

so.The deputy general of the Chinese army who supervised the standard went to the supply camp and the car camp to dispatch artillery and gunpowder shells to go forward.

However, the two generals who were in charge of the luggage and artillery had their hands spread out, their faces full of sadness.

"My lord, in this kind of weather. On such a road, gunpowder, shells and artillery are heavy objects. How can you walk fast?"

"Then I don't care! I just tell you the military orders of the Master Supervisor! If I missed the Master Supervisor's affairs, hum! Crazy He is waiting for you to go down and drink with him!" The deputy supervisor is also used to being arrogant The people in the Shaanxi army used He Renlong's fate to intimidate the generals in the Shaanxi army at every turn, and they were domineering.

"My lord, I dare not miss the matter of the supervisor. However, if I want to arrive on time, the men and mules and horses in my hands are definitely not enough. Unless, unless it is..."

"Unless what is it?" The lieutenant general widened his eyes, looking like he was about to kill someone.

"Behind the subordinates are the subordinates of Gao Jie, the general soldier of Shaanxi. They have nearly [-] soldiers and horses, and they are all cavalry. Your Excellency may wish to use the order of the Lord Superintendent to transfer them to join the civilian men on hand. Transport the artillery and ammunition up together. This will not miss the military order of the supervisor!"

As he spoke, his hands were not idle, and a few gold bars that looked like coals were quietly stuffed into the hands of the deputy general of the supervising army, and the general of the supply camp even folded a rice ticket with a denomination of around a thousand stones. Stuffed it into the lieutenant's boot.

"There is some truth in what you said, no matter what! I sent them to transport the artillery for you, and the ammunition is it!"

However, when the officers under the deputy general took Sun Chuanting's order to the troops behind and ordered them to bring all the horses to transport artillery, gunpowder and shells for the wagon camp and supply camp, it was a hornet's nest!

Those who marched closely behind the car camp and the supply camp were the old troops of He Renlong and the lunatic who was killed by Sun Chuanting's marching law that day. Now he is leading these three thousand people, his nephews He Guoxian and He Guoying. indivual.

With a face full of disdain and a sneer, he heard the commander-in-chief who came to deliver the order shyly finished the military order, and He Guoying asked back with a sneer: "It's that simple? Let us all change from cavalry to coolies." With the husband?"

"Nanima, what are you going to do?" Mr. Qian, who came to deliver orders to this group of old relatives of Madman He, never paid attention to them, and asked back with squinted eyes.

Compared with He Guoying's fiery temper, He Guoxian's character is much calmer, Dang even replied with a smile: "Actually, you don't have to work hard to come here, you just need to find a dog to come here with a big order in its mouth. Our brothers have seen it, so naturally we dare not disobey."

"You! How dare you swear at people!" It took a long time for Mr. Qian to realize that He Guoxian was turning a corner and scolding him for being a dog.Immediately jump up.Pointing at the noses of the two He family brothers will cause a seizure.

"So what if I scold you!"

He Guoying made a gesture to confront Mr. Qian, but he saw a bloodstain on Mr. Qian's chest getting bigger and bigger. When he looked down, the tip of a sword on his chest was dripping with blood.

"Sixth and eighth, at this point in time, don't you still understand?" He Laoqi drew out his sword, kicked Mr. Qian to the ground, and wiped the sword's blood on him.The twenty masters he brought had already chopped several of Mr. Qian's subordinates into pieces.

"Donkey ball! Sun Deaf also has today! The road back to Shaanxi cannot be opened in front, and the soldiers of the Generalissimo and the General are chasing after them. The soldiers and horses are in such a desperate situation. We can't write two words in one stroke." Congratulations! Why bother to bury his old grandson here!"

"Brothers, get on your horse, go and steal old grandson's belongings, burn his gunpowder, and avenge fourth uncle! Those who want to get rich come with me! Those who want to get revenge come with me!"

In the blink of an eye, more than [-] people who were supposed to serve as coolies in the carriage camp and the supply camp suddenly became the life-threatening impermanence of these two families!A white cloth is wrapped around the shoulders.Both the spear and the hilt are marked with white cloth to distinguish friend from foe.

More than 3000 The eyeballs of the old department of the madman are all red!In the past, they followed He Renlong in Shaanxi, Sichuan, and Huguang. They were the only ones who bullied others everywhere. How could others be domineering over them?However, ever since He Renlong was executed by Sun Chuanting's army, these arrogant soldiers in the past immediately became the stepmothers, and this bad breath is about to come out today!

More than ten thousand horseshoes trampled on the muddy ground, the mud and blood splashed, and the corpses of Qian Zong and a dozen of his subordinates were trampled into a ball of fleshy mud in a blink of an eye.

With a cry, more than a thousand cavalry rushed into the supply camp under the leadership of He Guoying and He Laoqi. How could the poor guards of the supply camp be the opponents of this group of wolves and tigers?It didn't take a face-to-face to retreat in defeat.Those who were clever followed the He family's soldiers and horses to plunder and burn them among the vehicles.The convoy, which stretched for more than ten miles just now, suddenly burst into flames from more than ten places in the queue, and quickly turned into a fire dragon.There were a few dull explosions from time to time, which was the scene after the unwet gunpowder on the gunpowder cart was ignited.

"Don't burn it! Don't smash those cannons! Those are our military exploits! They are our greetings to King Chuang! Just push them to the side of the road!" He Guoxian was not confused.Just command his soldiers to keep setting fire to the food and grass on the supply cart, take away the military pay, and cut off the tarpaulin and rope on the gunpowder cart.As for the artillery in the car camp, they just left them decadent in the ditch on both sides of the official road.The huge gunpowder barrel rolled down from the vehicle and rolled in a mess on the road, "Quick! Take off the lid! The gunpowder gets wet and Sun Deaf can't use it! The generalissimo can still use it after the battle!"

"Rebelled! These thieves from the He family really rebelled!" Looking at the white cloth wrapped around his shoulders from a distance.Shouting for the soldiers and horses of the He family who were rushing left and right in the ranks of the Ming army, the lieutenant general of the supervisor cursed dumbfoundedly. things.

"My lord! I'm sorry! I'm a dead man for burning the army's food and grass. If I kill you and vote for King Li Chuang, I might be able to continue to maintain my fame and wealth!" cut down.

"Go! Tell He Guoying that we are also revolting and voting for King Li Chuang!"

The sound of gunpowder explosions and flames coming from the direction of the baggage camp was extremely eye-catching in this dark field. All the officers and soldiers of the Ming army in the Wulichuan Basin looked eastward almost at the same time.On the way they came, there was black smoke in the air, mixed with several orange-red flames.Occasionally, there were a few muffled explosions, hitting people's eardrums and nerves.

"It's over!" Almost everyone had this thought in their minds.In the front road, there were two brave young men who were not afraid of death, stalking them there, and in the back road, Li Zicheng led more than [-] fine cavalry to chase them fiercely. In this weather, the army was blocked in such a geographical environment. The geographical advantage is extremely unfavorable to the Ming army!

"Marshal! What should we do?" The lieutenants, generals, guerrillas and other military officers from each town gathered around their respective chief town masters to plan for their own future and way out.In the distance, the flag of the cavalry of Li Zicheng's brigade could already be seen at the end of the field of vision!

"Let's go! Let's go east. Before Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai close the encirclement, let's fight out, go to the edge of the Yellow River, cross the Yellow River, and go to Shanxi!" Gao Jie, the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi Town, made his own judgment without hesitation.

He knew very well that among the general soldiers here, Niu Chenghu, Zheng Jiadong, Guan Fumin and others could surrender to Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai, and he was sure that after surrendering, these people would be treated well.However, he absolutely cannot surrender!

Don't talk about how many lives and how much blood he has fought against various rebel armies over the years, just the fact that he abducted the Xing family to escape and surrender to the official army. Become Roast Chicken!

Under his leadership, the remnants of Shaanxi Town rolled up their banners, led a horse to Luanling, escaped from the joint of the encirclement of Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai, and fled towards Shanxi!

In Shiziping, Gu Ying, who arrived with five or six thousand new talents, also gave a sincere voice of admiration to Luo Hu and Zhang Nai.

"You two little fellows are really good! The Grand Marshal is right!"

In Gu Ying's view, Sun Chuanting is already a turtle in the urn at this time, and there is absolutely no reason to escape. However, Luo Hu's subordinates are still constantly reinforcing the fortifications and setting up artillery positions, lest Sun Chuanting will jump over the wall in a hurry to fight a trapped beast.

"Little Huzi, tell them, don't do it anymore, old man Sun can't run away! Look!"

The ground under his feet trembled faintly, and finally trembled violently. It seemed that at the same time, black spots appeared indistinctly on the distant skyline, and in a blink of an eye, they turned into sea-like dense flags.

Hundreds of thousands of horseshoes knocked on the ground, and tens of thousands of cavalrymen rushed forward, the blackness was endless, and the sound of iron hooves shook everyone's heart faintly.

Looking at the sea of ​​fluttering flags and the boundless war horses, Sun Chuanting sighed, and he suddenly felt as if all the strength in his body had been exhausted, and he became doughy.

"Help your lord on the horse!"

"Guard my lord!"

"Brothers, get on the horse with me and kill!"

"Get out! Cross the Yellow River, go to Shanxi, and return to the capital!"

Indistinctly, Sun Chuanting could hear the morale of the generals of the Beijing battalion, who acted as his standard battalion, shouting with high morale. Countless defeated soldiers, discarded armor sticks, and vehicles overturned by the roadside flashed before his eyes.

Everything is like a dream. (~^~)
