Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Rao Wu Shigong and Liu Zeqing are people who have seen the world, when they saw the valuables on the eighty-odd carts, they were both surprised and a little dumbfounded.

Liu Zeqing couldn't help shouting out: "This is too much!"

What was loaded on this cart was the property looted by the chariot troops of the rebels.There was not much gold and silver, only more than 3 taels when converted into silver, but copper coins, bronze wares, silks and satins, and valuables were all piled up like hills.

This is also the benefit of having tanks for the rebel tank troops.Ordinary rebel soldiers looted high-value and light-weight things such as gold, silver and jewelry.But the chariot units of the rebels are different. They can use the chariots to load heavy items.So these items are basically owned by the tank troops.

Moreover, the hearts of the various units of the rebel army are not in harmony.The chariot troops did not dare to store these items in Dengzhou City, the base of the rebels. They were afraid that after they came to fight in Huang County, other rebel troops in Dengzhou City would snatch these items again, so they kept them by their side Most rest assured.But now, these items are all cheap for the coalition forces of Wu Shigong and Liu Zeqing.

I didn't have time to count it right away.Wu Shigong and Liu Zeqing immediately ordered the soldiers of the coalition army not to pursue any more.The coalition forces immediately gathered their troops and surrounded all the rebel chariots and their own carts into several lines of defense, first defending this big piece of fat.With so much windfall, the current friendly army is as terrifying as the rebel army.

As a result, such a strange situation appeared on the battlefield. The coalition forces that were still attacking just now took a defensive posture on the battlefield, preventing any rebels and friendly forces from approaching.

Kong Youde's mind immediately went blank when the cart from Runing Camp appeared on the top of the slope.He also experienced what Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian had just experienced, the process from great joy to great sorrow.Kong Youde's face was pale.Since the rebellion, he has always been full of vigor, and for the first time, it disappeared in Kong Youde's heart.

The central army of the rebel army was also silent, and the sudden blow was too heavy.Seeing that the Runing Battalion had completely broken the chariot formation, and the swarming coalition forces had widened the gap in the chariot formation, Li Yingyuan couldn't help asking Kong Youde: "Uncle Kong, what should we do now? ?”

Kong Youde immediately realized that he must not fail in this situation.Otherwise, there is really no way out.As if to cheer himself up, he ordered with the loudest voice: "Let people go quickly! Withdraw all the troops. Let's go back to Dengzhou City. Governor Sun has run Dengzhou City for so long, and the officers and soldiers are absolutely invincible." of."

then.Kong Youde strengthened his confidence again and said: "It is absolutely invincible! As long as our old Liao army is here, where can we not go in this world? We... let's go first!"

After finishing speaking, Kong Youde pulled his horse and walked to the back.

Seeing that Kong Youde was about to leave, Li Yingyuan asked anxiously, "Uncle Kong, what should Huang County do?"

Kong Youde didn't look back.He said: "Let the children inside also withdraw! Huang County can't hold it. They all go back to Dengzhou City!"

Seeing that Li Yingyuan wanted to speak, Li Jiuzheng stopped him and said, "Oh! You, Uncle Kong, are right. Just now, the six thousand old Liao soldiers who had recharged their batteries in Huang County have gone out. Now there are only Three thousand old and weak. Even the remnant soldiers in front retreated to Huang County. They could not stop the morale of the officers and soldiers. It is better to withdraw our cavalry and the old Liao army back to Dengzhou City. With them, our battle today It's not considered a complete defeat. Hurry up and pass the order."

When Kong Youde's order was passed on to the various units of the rebel army, the left-wing and right-wing troops of the rebel army, which had the upper hand, retreated smoothly.The troops of the Liaodong Army and the commander-in-chief Yang Yufan, who were hit hard, were also unable to pursue them.

But the troops in the middle of the rebel army were in tragedy.In front of them was Qiu Lei's Ming army in the middle, which was supervised by Zhu Dadian, and the back was blocked by the chariot formation of the coalition army. In the end, only a small half of the rebels in the middle escaped.

Then there was the cover-up by the Ming army.Take advantage of the trend to capture Huang County.However, no matter how the external situation evolves, the coalition forces are shrunk inside the tortoise shell they built, no matter how windy and rainy the outside is, anyway, they will remain motionless behind the chariot formation.

On the other hand, the coalition forces are defending against the rebels and friendly forces.On the one hand, they are sitting on the ground and dividing up the spoils.If this money is not in hand, no one will feel at ease. Who cares what is still going on outside.

First cut off the heads of the rebels.In the end, there were more than 2000 total statistics.Of course, all the armor on their bodies was stripped off, and more than 4 taels of silver were also collected.

Yan Dingshan was not a taboo at that time, and all the dead bodies of the Ming army were loaded into the cart.The most exaggerated, more than 300 dead horses were carried.The vest and harness of the dead horse are of course considered trophies, and the horse meat can always be sacrificed several times, but the corpses of the Ming army are not very active.

Of course, the money from those corpses was looted.But all of them add up to just over 1000 taels of silver.Compared with the rebel soldiers who made a lot of money by looting, the soldiers of the Ming army were indeed poor soldiers worthy of the name.

The bodies of those soldiers, their armor and clothes were not moved.The current coalition army has no shortage of heads, so it is better to return these corpses to other Ming armies to form a good relationship.

Of course, the weapons held by these corpses were left to the coalition forces.Let the coalition army inherit their wishes, take over the guns in the hands of the dead Ming soldiers, and continue to fight against Kong Youde's rebels.

The only exception is the Liaodong Army.Their bodies were all stripped off.Especially those servants, the heavy armor on them is really a good thing.Anyway, the coalition forces have already stalemate with the Liaodong Army, and they don't care about one more thing.

Distribute immediately after counting everything.Anyway, it is not too troublesome to distribute according to the distribution plan after the Battle of Shahe.But before the distribution, Wu Shigong made a request that other military officers should leave all these chariots of the rebels to the Runing Battalion.In order to get these chariots, Wu Shigong was even willing to suffer some losses in the distribution of silver and other property.

At this time, Liu Zeqing showed his boldness and friendship with Wu Shigong.With a big wave of his hand, he gave all the tanks and even the rockets on the tanks to Wu Shigong, and did not count these vehicles and supplies into the distribution of property.

Regarding Liu Zeqing's generosity, no other military officer raised objections.After all, Wu Shigong's Runing Camp became the most dangerous striker today, and it is quite normal to get some extra bonuses.

The next assignment went smoothly.In addition to the silver and property allocated, Wu Shigong also allocated a large batch of ordnance.Among them, Wu Shigong was most pleased that there were more than 100 pairs of vests, more than 100 sets of harnesses, more than [-] pieces of heavy armor, more than [-] pieces of relatively complete light armor and cotton armor, and light armor and cotton armor that were seriously damaged and needed to be repaired. There are more than [-] armors.

In addition, there are thirteen small cannons of about one pound, such as tiger crouching guns and Flang machine guns, four three-eyed firecrackers, and 61 eagle blunderbusses.Although the three-eyed firecracker and eagle blunderbuss are less powerful than cannons, they are stronger than firecrackers, so Wu Shigong is going to come over and use them as auxiliary weapons for the Runing camp to defend the city in the future.Wu Shigong didn't want the bird gun that was too weak.There are also 37 hand guns.

Of course, there are many other weapons, shields and so on, and Wu Shigong didn't bother to check them out.He only loaded these weapons into his own cart.

All the coalition military attachés who had distributed the property were anxious to find someone to estimate the value.At this time, Yan Dingshan was very popular.The soldiers in Yanding Mountain are not very good at fighting, but they have been on the edge of the canal for a long time, so they are good at doing business.

After the estimates by dozens of soldiers who were familiar with the prices of the goods led by Yan Dingshan's cousin, the prices of those goods were also calculated quickly.Of course, Yan Dingshan's valuation must be on the low side, but even so, Wu Shigong calculated that the total price of the gold, silver and goods he allocated exceeded more than 8 taels of silver.

After estimating the price, several military officers who were troublesome in transportation sold their goods to Yan Dingshan, which made Yan Dingshan another fortune and made Yan Dingshan radiant.

Of course Wu Shigong would not take advantage of Yan Dingshan, his own Four Seas Trading Company also has a branch in Jining.But knowing that Wu Shigong had a connection, Chen Zhongzhi and Jiang Cheng, two military officers from Henan, also entrusted him, and Wu Shigong immediately agreed readily.

It wasn't until the sky turned completely dark that the battle in Huang County came to a complete stop.At this time, Huang County had been completely conquered by the Ming army, and the camp of the Ming army also began to move to the camp left by the rebels on the edge of Huang County.

In the battle of Huangxian, the Ming army won a big victory.A total of more than 3000 Kong Youde's rebels were wiped out and captured.The Ming army suffered over [-] casualties.Among them, the Liaodong Army suffered over a thousand casualties.

The casualties of the coalition forces that made the first contribution were not large, only more than 200 casualties.Among them, Wu Shigong's Runing Battalion killed 31 people and injured 36 people.However, it can also be seen that in the era of cold weapons, after soldiers were injured, the proportion of soldiers killed in battle was quite high.

What made Wu Shigong a little distressed was that the mobile battalion lost one captain and one vice captain of the centurion.And the captain was also one of the guards Wu Shigong brought out of the capital.The vice-captain was with apprentice Tao Xinqianhu, but he had just been released as an officer from Wu Shigong's personal army.There were also 16 casualties in the personal army.

In today's battle, Yu Ji, who performed the best in the Runing Battalion, is now with his upper body naked and bandaged like a mummy.

At that time, eleven arrows were shot on Yu Ji's armor.The arrows of several arrows also pierced through the ring-arm iron armor, cotton armor and silk inner armor worn by Yu Ji, and embedded themselves in Yu Ji's body.Fortunately, the embedding is not too deep, it is just some skin trauma.

But Yu Ji was hit a bit hard by the rebel bullets.Although those bullets didn't penetrate the armor, the impact made Yu Ji black and blue all over.He also suffered minor internal injuries.

But from then on, Yu Ji had a nickname - Hedgehog.It is to commemorate his appearance full of arrows in this battle. (To be continued..)
