Go back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to be a soldier

Chapter 233 1 taels of silver arrived

Zhu Dadian and Tiger David were different from the past. When they met Lin Yi, they were respectful and respectful, and they called them generals.

"Zhu Dadian and Tiger David have met the general."

"Ms. Lin is polite." Lin Yi looked at the two of them and clasped their hands together, secretly thinking that the two of you came at the right time, what did you do just now?But Ji Dong didn't say anything.The more respectful these two are to Ji Dong, the more guarded Ji Dong is.

Zhu Dadian said: "General, how can we withdraw our troops at this time? Li Zicheng was defeated, and there were only a few thousand troops in the city. We have at least [-] troops from the three places. We should take down Nanyang City in one go and completely eradicate Li Zicheng. ,Not to be missed."

"Yes, the general ordered to attack the city, we are willing to take the lead." Tiger David also said.

Lin Yi looked at the faces of the two imitative emoticons under the night, thought for a while, and smiled slightly: "Okay, you attack the city, I wish you both success and success, Lin will take his leave first." After Lin Yi finished speaking, Turned away.

What has changed between these two, Lin Yi has long known, this is not the first time they have dealt with each other. By the Baishui River, Lin Yi and Liu Zeqing had a conflict.

Now that they are running over again, Ji Dong almost couldn't stand the defeat at the hands of Li Zicheng, they ignored it, now that they have won the battle, they are here to pretend to be hindsight, but they just want to reap some benefits and get a share of Ji Yi's military exploits. How could Ji Dong let them succeed.

Ji Dong left them here, the two of them were embarrassed for a while, and finally saw that Ji Yi could not be fooled by them, the two of them would not lead troops to attack the city, so they could only shake their heads, and smiled tacitly at each other in embarrassment Laugh, also withdraw troops and set up camp nearby.

Counting Ji Dong's men and horses, the camps of these three commanders surrounded Nanyang City.

Of course, Ji Dong didn't care about these two bad generals. The battle against Li Zicheng was definitely a major battle. From scouting to planning and deployment, to the start of the war, there were four battlefields including the local battlefields, three counties and one Nanyang Prefecture. Counting the time on the road, it took nearly two days.The three county towns fought for a long time, and outside Nanyang City, they fought for most of the day.

On the whole, this big battle was carried out in accordance with the direction of Ji Dong's strategy. Although the middle was full of dangers and full of variables, it did not deviate from the general direction in the end.In the end, Li Zicheng's complete failure and running into Nanyang City closed the city without a fight before it came to an end.

At the second watch, the whole battalion had a full meal, and Ji Dong felt much more comfortable.

Hearing that Lin Yi was so tired that he vomited blood, Xiao Yi and Zhe Zhe were so distressed that they wanted to ask a military doctor to come over and ask about the situation.

Ji Dong felt very happy, the marching battle was very miserable, it was good to have a woman take care of him.Therefore, a warm feeling rose in my heart, and I smiled at them, but rejected them: "You two fools, that mouthful of blood can have at most 400 cc, and a person who doesn't know martial arts will lose [-] cc of blood without affecting his health, let alone me, Lin Yi. With so much blood, do you think something is wrong with me?"

As Lin Yi said, his chest slapped loudly, and Ermei felt relieved.

Afterwards, regardless of the exhaustion of the battle, the two of them brought him the ginseng soup that the two of them cooked by themselves, and fed it to Lin Yi, and Lin Yi was suddenly overwhelmed with happiness...

the next day.The results of this battle have been counted. In the four battlefields, more than 600 Li Zicheng's troops were annihilated, of which more than [-] people were captured, and three counties were restored. There were more than [-] people, and nearly [-] people were captured.

As for the war weapons obtained such as knives and spears, gongs and drums, tents, horses, etc., they are worthless, and the grain and grass obtained are piled up like mountains.

However, Ji Dong also paid a considerable price for this battle. Counting the four battlefields, the total casualties of each battalion exceeded 500, of which the guard battalion suffered 520 casualties, accounting for half of the entire guard battalion.The first battalion, the Musketeer Battalion, had a total of 30 casualties, the third battalion, Lin Yi's standard battalion, had a total of [-] casualties, and the women's battalion had [-] dead and nine injured.

Compared with the number of enemies wiped out, this casualty is insignificant, but this is the largest number of combat casualties among Ji Dong's troops in recent years.

Speaking of this battle, both Xiaoying and Zhezhe were in tears. Their women's battalion was originally small, but now it has been reduced by half.Ji Dong's heart is also very heavy. Although there are inevitable casualties in war, the battlefield is life and death. Casualties are a very serious matter, but facing the loss of dozens of young lives, especially their young girls, these days, Lin Yi Yi was inseparable, so Ji Dong also felt regret and heartache.

After comforting Xiaoying and Zhezhe, there was an opportunity to expand the women's battalion for them, and then Lin Yi decided to take special care of the casualties of the women's battalion soldiers. In addition to doubling the pension for their families, he sent their bodies back to their original places for a proper burial.

Then clean up the battlefield, cover the corpses, take care of the trophies, put them in the warehouse first and then distribute them to the battalions if necessary, guard the prisoners and wait for the people from those battalions to come immediately, and then deal with them in a centralized manner. These post-war affairs are very complicated, thousands of people. I have been busy for three full days.

During this period, Lin Yi's sixth battalion, the logistics and supply battalion, the fourth battalion, the fifth battalion, and the second battalion, which is the artillery battalion, all arrived.Not counting the thousands of Nanjing soldiers and Baoding soldiers, Lin Yi's troops alone reached nearly 2 horses. Lin Yi's soldiers and horse companies were mainly located in the west, south and east of Nanyang, and Zhu Dadian and Tiger David had thousands of troops. They were camped in the northeast corner and the northwest corner respectively. In other words, the Ming army outside Nanyang City exceeded [-] at this time, forming a siege to Nanyang.

For the past three days, Nanyang City was very quiet.Ji Dong didn't attack the city either, neither did Zhu Dadian and Hu Davidang.The two parties survived for three days.

"My lord, when are we going to attack the city?" He Tao came to look for Lin Yi, and Lin Yi had won another big victory, and he had made great achievements. His artillery battalion hadn't shown its power yet, so he couldn't wait.

Ji Dong suddenly remembered something, "Leave the siege for a while, and call Zhang Hua to me."

Soon Zhang Hua came in from outside the tent, "The general summoned his subordinates, what orders do you have?"

"During your last trip to Luoyang, what did Yang Sichang say after seeing the letter?"

"Back to the general, Master Yang agreed, and led his subordinates to pay respects to the old King Fu." Zhang Hua hurriedly saluted. Lin Yi asked about this two days ago, why did he ask again, but quickly answered, It's the same as the answer in two days.

"Then what did the old Fu Wang say?"

"Old King Fu said that if we win the battle, he is willing to pay 100 million taels of silver. If we lose, there will be no copper coins. General, we have won such a big victory. Luoyang is not far from here. They must have known about it for a long time. They are more concerned about this battle than we are, especially the old Fuwang, but will they pretend to be confused about the money and refuse to accept it? It is 100 million taels. Go to destroy it?" Zhang Hua observed what Lin Yi was thinking.

Lin Yi said: "It's only the third day since we defeated Li Zicheng. Don't be busy, let's wait a little longer. But Lin Yi will pass on the order, and the money won't come, so we won't attack the city or fight."

"promise."

A few days later, people came from Luoyang. Li Wenhai, the head of the Ministry of War, represented Yang Sichang with 500 people and escorted more than a dozen carts. The few in the middle were covered with grass, and the rest were packed with wine and meat. Rewarding the three armies, they marched into Lin Yi's camp mightily.

Lin Yi had already guessed it, and went out of the camp with a happy face to bring Mr. Li into the camp. More than a dozen carts also entered the camp, and when they arrived in the tent, the guests and hosts were seated. Both your lord and the old Fu Wang praised the general's martial arts, and the 100 million taels of silver that the general needed was sent to the official. , please reward the general."

One million taels of silver has arrived!

Lin Yi was elated when he heard that, it is not uncommon for meritorious service to be ineffective. With this 100 million taels of silver, the soldiers can live a good life, and they can expand their troops, so hurry up Master Li, Master Yang and Lao Fuwang.

"After the general has rested his army, he will advance as soon as possible to capture Nanyang and destroy the intruders. The Lord of the Pavilion and the old Fu Wang are waiting for the good news. The emperor will definitely be very happy when the time comes, and the emperor's many rewards are also indispensable."

Lin Yi nodded: "Lord Li, don't worry, my subordinates will make plans and attack Nanyang City soon to wipe out the rogue Li Zicheng."
