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

Chapter 407 Zuo Liangyu and Gao Jie
Gao Guiying and Li Yan led the generals out of the city for a few miles. Many of the generals met Lin Yi for the first time.Like Zuo Liangyu, Gao Jie, Liu Liangzuo, Li Chengdong, etc.

Now Ji Dong's reputation is thunderous, or it is not an exaggeration to describe it as the sun in the sky.

There are countless people who want to witness this legendary god-like existence, of course, including Zuo Liangyu, Gao Jie, Liu Liangzuo, Li Chengdong, Xu Dingguo, etc., these historical figures in the late Ming Dynasty.

It has been a year or two since Gao Guiying and Li Yan led them to fight against the Dashun Army.

Among the 10,000+ people, there are of course many people who have dealt with Ji Dong.

One of them is the Shandong warlord Liu Zeqing.During this period, Liu Zeqing told Gao Jie, Zuo Liangyu, Liu Liangzuo, etc. more than once about the legendary story between himself and Lin Yi, and more about the legendary grievances between him and Lin Yi. Of course, he only talked about praise, only about him. On the favorable side, those embarrassing things were either avoided talking about, or they were processed and adapted to benefit him, and then they were talked about.

Of course Liu Zeqing met Lin Yi. That was when he was fighting in Junzhou and Yunyang. At that time, Emperor Chongzhen was still alive. The most popular policy was Yang Sichang’s strategy of spreading the net with 4 points, 6 corners, and 10 sides, and concentrated all the troops of Ming Dynasty. , intending to wipe out the rogues like Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong.Against this background, both Lin Yi and Liu Zeqing took their troops and horses into action.

At that time, both Liu Zeqing and Lin Yi were commanders-in-chief, and they were on the same rank. Even Liu Zeqing, the commander-in-chief, was half a head taller than Lin Yi, the commander-in-chief of Miyun, because of his seniority and experience, and had a greater influence. out a lot.

In the Yunyang area, Lin Yi had just wiped out the giant bandit Luo Rucai, and his reputation was greatly shaken. At that time, he met this Liu Zeqing.

At that time, Liu Zeqing relied on the old to sell the old, and he didn't accept this fledgling in his eyes. At that time, there were several other generals, and of course there were many people who watched the excitement and were not afraid of big things. Playing rogue, fighting for the results of the battle, crossing the Baishui River to attack Lin Yi's soldiers and horses.

As a result, the generals under Lin Yi didn't listen to him at all, like Erhu, Wang Qi, Dong Sheng, they were all masters who said they would fight.

As a result, the two sides clashed, and many people were killed and injured. The two generals had tens of thousands of troops.

Due to the mediation of those chief military officers, Liu Zeqing held a Hongmen banquet, and Lin Yi went to the banquet as promised, not only propped Liu Zeqing upside down, but also slaughtered his monkey.

Later, the lawsuit between the two commanders-in-chief came to Yang Shichang of the Ministry of War. Liu Zeqing thought that Yang Shichang, who was confident in his mind, also criticized Liu Zecheng for being unreasonable. In that battle, Liu Zeqing lost all his troops and lost face.

But later, driven by the general trend, Liu Zeqing finally had no choice but to submit to Lin Yi's command.

Therefore, in comparison, he has the deepest impression on Ji Dong.

Fighting at the same table before a banquet, who can compare to such an impression and adventure?
Therefore, after Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself, Lin Yi became the supervisor of the daimyo, with great power in his hands.Even the crown prince Zhu Cihong backed away and gave way to Lin Yi on his own initiative. Other cabinet ministers, inner court eunuchs, warlords, and border officials could only follow the crowd.

After these people joined Lin Yi, they were all under the command of Gao Guiying and Li Yan according to Lin Yi's orders, and they all dealt with Zhang Xianzhong's Daxi Army unanimously.

During this period, Liu Zeqing used his quarrel with Lin Yi as capital to show off, boasting, to Zuo Liangyu, Liu Liangzuo, Gao Jie, Li Chengdong, Xu Dingguo, etc., to add fuel and jealousy to what happened back then, talking about gleeful, spitting stars flying around, and This is to earn the capital that the generals admire.

Of course, Liu Zeqing can also brag, what should be exaggerated, what should be shrunk, in order to highlight himself, and also to highlight Lin Yi, this experience is full of dangers, there are dangers and dangers, the legendary one can write a novel .

After these military leaders heard this, some admired, some envied, some doubted him, and there were all kinds of expressions.

"It's so amazing, is Ji Dong really so awesome?"

But their common thought is when they can see Ji Dong himself, which has become their common wish.

But today I finally saw the real person.Sure enough, he is a good-looking talent, Qi Yuxuanang!

Gao Guiying, Li Yan and others knelt down to greet Lin Yi, who was excused by Lin Yi. After the greetings, Lin Yi was taken into Chengdu like stars holding the moon.

Chengdu can also be regarded as a thousand-year-old city, full of humanities, and Lin Yi has never been here, whether in his previous life or in this life.

Today is the first time. The thick city walls, quaint buildings, and the bricks and stones of the city walls with green moss growing at the bottom are full of historical precipitation everywhere.

After entering the city, the people in the city also got the letter.Now due to the war, the number of people in this area has dropped sharply. Some escaped the war and fled to the deep mountains and old forests, some left their homes to seek relatives and friends in other places, and some hid in the city.

Hearing that Lord Jian Guo is here in person, everyone wants to open their eyes.

However, the streets and alleys in the city are full of Ming Dynasty troops. These ordinary people can only hide in their own homes. It is the person who is supporting the building upside down.

There are also bold ones, in order to see clearly, and afraid that they will be found guilty of voyeuristic assassination by the Ming army, so they secretly climbed to the slope of the house, held their breath, and watched quietly.

There are groups of soldiers and generals on the street, neat and orderly, all of them are brightly armored and full of energy.

When they saw Lin Yi riding a yellow puma in full armor, including those generals who had never seen Lin Yi before, all of them stared wide-eyed.

Immediately afterwards, there was admiration: this man is simply incomparable!

Then the 10 troops brought by Ji Dong marched into the city mightily.

The 10 people that Lin Yi brought with them were definitely excellent in terms of equipment. Gao Guiying also had old warlords such as Zuo Liangyu, Huang Degong, and Gao Jie. Their equipment seemed a bit old in comparison.

These generals have seen the cannons in red, but they have never seen thousands of camels, and what they have never seen is that the camels are still equipped with advanced weapons such as camel cannons.

There is also another advanced weapon, that is, self-propelled flintlock guns. These old troops saw all the brand-new self-propelled flintlock guns, but they couldn't see the matchlock on the top, and there was a small mechanism under the butt. So sad.

Some have heard of this kind of gun, but they have never seen it, and some have never even heard of it. This time it was an eye-opener, and they all cast envious eyes.

These old generals of the Ming Dynasty all looked at Lin Yi's army eagerly, as if they were holding a military parade to display advanced weapons. They looked at their equipment, and then at their own equipment. This is probably the difference between the central army and the local army. !
Therefore, these old Ming soldiers pointed and talked one by one, and all cast envious eyes.

Seeing this, the generals under Lin Yi, whether it was the standard battalion, the invincible battalion, the women's battalion, the guard battalion or other battalions, were all very honored to raise their chests up, striding like a shooting star, with expressions on their faces. With great honor and pride.

After all, being envied by others is also a kind of happiness!
There were already 10,000+ troops in the city, plus the 20 troops brought by Lin Yi, the Ming army gathered in Chengdu exceeded [-].

Back in the commander's mansion, Gao Guiying and Li Yan reported to Lin Yi the battle situation during this period in detail, and then said: "This subordinate is incompetent, please forgive me, Lord Jian Guo."

Of course, Ji Dong won't punish them. Lin Yi knows that their opponents are really tough, otherwise you wouldn't have fought in person, and Gao Guiying and Li Yan have won and lost in the two years of battle. Generally speaking, their achievements It can be regarded as prominent, taking down Chengdu and taking over half of Sichuan. As for the defeat in front of him, there was a reason. As the saying goes, victory and defeat are commonplace in military strategists.

Therefore, instead of blaming them, Ji Dong praised them.

How to deal with the enemy, at this time Ji Dong had already figured it out.

Through Gao Guiying and Li Yan, Lin Yi knew that the main reason for their defeat was that the Burmese elephant army was difficult to deal with.

Because the horse is against the elephant, the horse collapses as soon as the elephant shows its power, and the infantry can't resist it.

Li Yan and the others have red-clothed cannons and muskets, but the mobility of the red-clothed cannons is too poor. Although the power of the red-clothed cannons is great, they are mainly used for tough battles. Target bombing.

In addition, the Ming army here is mainly the old Ming army. Their equipment is mainly cold weapons. There are also a lot of muskets. The gun is fired, so its power is very limited.

The new self-generating flintlock guns are mainly equipped with Lin Yi's direct line troops and the deployment of Sangong Jiangyin who fought in Nanjing. They are mainly used to fight against the Zheng family's army. They have not had time to equip this army in the southwest. After all, that era was not socialized Mass production with limited production capacity.

Know yourself and the enemy, a hundred battles will never end.

After Lin Yi figured out the strength of both sides, he began to divide the troops and send generals.

If you want to defeat the opponent's elephant army, you must first draw this army out.Of course, this army will not be outside all the time, it will become the target of the red cannon.

This elephant army is also the trump card of the Burmese army. They have been specially trained for many years and invested a lot of manpower, material and financial resources. Only when they are needed, this team will win with one blow. When other armies can win Under such circumstances, they will not easily use this team.

But what is certain is that this team must be in the opposite team of Sun Kewang.Although Sun Kewang and Mu Tianbo are both wise and brave, and their troops are also brave and good at fighting, if they don't have this elephant army to boost their power, they may not be able to beat the team of Gao Guiying and Li Yan.

At critical times, they will use this elephant army as a killer.Therefore, Gao Guiying and Li Yan, the Ming army, had a grudge against them when they fought against them, and suffered repeated defeats.

After discussing with Gao Guiying, Li Yan, Song Xiance, etc., Lin Yi decided that he must send a team to lure the enemy, and he must try to lure the opponent's elephant army out.

The choice of this bait must be carefully considered. Although it is to lure the enemy, the strength must not be too weak, otherwise the bait may be eaten by the opponent, and it will not be able to lure the enemy.

The volunteers sent must have courage and strategy, know how to advance and retreat, and cannot be a warrior.

Therefore, Lin Yi already had a candidate in his mind. After the signal to raise the account and gather generals was sent out, the commanders of each battalion and the chief and adjutants who were in charge of more than 5000 people soon all arrived.

Lin Yi sat in the middle of the handsome tent, civil officials such as Song Xiance and Li Yan, and female generals stood on one side, and the rest of the generals stood on the other side.

The Yayachacha standing in the handsome tent is full of them. The female generals are heroic and the male generals are majestic. Civil officials like Song Xiance and Li Yan also hold their chests up and look at Lin with confident eyes. Yi, with a confident look.

A person or a group of people may go crazy if they are suppressed for too long. The 10,000+ troops under Gao Guiying and Li Yan can be said to be strong and strong, like a cloud of warriors.

Whether it's Li Zicheng's old department, like Li Guo, Li Laiheng, Liu Fangliang, Yuan Zongdi, Gao Yigong, Tian Jianxiu.

It's still those old Ming warlords, such as Zuo Liangyu, Huang Degong, Gao Jie, Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zeqing, Li Chengdong and so on.

They are also generals trained by Lin Yi, such as Zu Keyong, Xiaoying, Zhezhe, Zhang Hua, Wang Qi, Dongsheng and so on.

All of them are full of energy, with piercing eyes, tall chests, and straight backs.

Ji Dong took a look and his eyes fell on several people.

The first one is Marquis Zuo Liangyu of Wuchang. This person was one of the influential figures in the late Ming Dynasty. As a warlord of a town, he was much stronger than any of the warlords of the four towns in Jiangbei, so he had a far-reaching influence on Ming Dynasty. .

On the eve of Chongzhen's hanging in history, this duke was conferred the title of Bo Ning Nanbo, second only to Hou and Wang Ye. It is said that when he had the most soldiers and horses, he had more than 80 soldiers, not to mention 80, but he had 40 elite soldiers. It is absolutely no problem for Jiangnan to fight against the Tartars.

Because the Manchu Tartars included the Mongols, Han Chinese, and Koreans. When the Qing Dynasty entered the customs and went south, the army was only more than 20, and the real Manchu Tartars were only more than 10.How does such a team enter the customs?How to dominate the Central Plains and dominate the world?Even if the Emperor Chongzhen and the Ming court were incompetent, and all civil and military officials were talented, stupid, and mediocre, it would not be possible for the Manchu Tartars to fight against ten with one, or even with one against a hundred!
However, the hundreds of thousands or even millions of Ming troops in Jiangnan were vulnerable.Especially after Zuo Liangyu had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses for breakfast, instead of fighting against the Manchu Tartars, he wanted to clean up the king's side.

After Zuo Liangyu died of illness in Jiujiang, his son Zuo Menggeng led an army of 20 troops and surrendered to the 1 Qing army without a single shot, which became a joke.

This is definitely a stain on the life of Zuo Liangyu and his son, and it is also a disgrace to the Ming Dynasty.

But now the history of their father and son has also been changed because of Ji Yi's time travel. Now they are responsible for leading the soldiers and horses under them, and they are all loyal to the Ming court, which means that they have not yet rebelled with any reason or excuse.

Ji Dong saw Zuo Liangyu and Zuo Menggeng father and son, and nodded.

Then Ji Dong's eyes fell on another person, this person was Gao Jie, and it was mentioned that this person was also a powerful figure in the late Ming Dynasty.

He was originally Li Zicheng's subordinate, and he was from the same town as Li Zicheng. It is said that the two of them were born as if they were dead, and they once even worshiped the eight brothers.Later, their thieves became bigger and bigger, and they had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. Li Zicheng took the baton from Gao Yingxiang and became the King of Chuang.

Gao Jie became Li Zicheng's right-hand man who was used to fighting.

But at this time, a problem arose, because the Ming army was in a hurry to chase, and one of the main generals of the Ming army was He Renlong.He is an official ordered by the imperial court, but he is also a fellow villager of Li Zicheng and Gao Jie.Li Zicheng wrote a personal letter, intending to ask Gao Jie to persuade him.

As a result, the letter was lost. Li Zicheng suspected that Gao Jie had transferred him from the front line to the rear.Now Gao Jie had the opportunity to get in touch with Li Zicheng's second wife, Xing Shi.

At that time, the Xing family was also in charge of military supplies in the rear, and there were more opportunities for the two of them to contact each other.

I don't know why, Li Zicheng's wives are all beautiful and second-hand, and the second wife Xing is the same.

Xing's appearance is as beautiful as a flower, and her age is also good. She is in the prime of her youth.This Gao Jie was tall and handsome, even more masculine than Li Zicheng.At least in Xing's eyes.

Just like this back and forth, the two flirted with each other, and both of them took off their trousers behind their backs.

But afterwards, fearing that the fire could not be covered with paper, the two of them betrayed Li Zicheng and surrendered to the army as soon as they discussed.This is recorded in history.

From this historical fact, it can be seen that Gao Jie is definitely not an incompetent person who only knows how to flirt, flirt and flirt with women.

On the contrary, he is a character with both civil and military skills, wisdom and courage.Otherwise, the nickname of Fanshan Yaozi would not be his turn, and his ability to get the commander's wife is by no means ordinary.

It was only because he was relatively short-lived that he was trapped and killed by his soldiers in history, so Gao Jie came to an end.

Otherwise, the history of the late Ming Dynasty might have been more exciting with a character like him.

Now because of Ji Dong's time travel, his historical destiny has also been changed.He did not go to Nanming to support Zhu Yousong as emperor, nor was he killed by his general Xu Dingguo.Now Xu Dingguo is under his command, and Gao Jie still regards him as his confidant.

After watching Zuo Liangyu and Gao Jie, Lin Yi made up his mind. As for Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo, Lin Yi was a little dismissive.

After looking around for the last time, Linyi's eyes still fell on the faces of Zuo Liangyu and Gao Jie.

"General Zuo? General Gao?"

"The subordinate is here. The last general is here!"

Zuo Liangyu and Gao Jie heard Lin Yi call their names, promised to come out quickly, and bowed up to salute.

"The big Po Sun Kewang is going to be in this battle. I have ordered the two of you to lead your troops and go out to kill the enemy tomorrow. The first battle is sure to win. There must be no mistakes."

"..."

Zuo Liangyu and Gao Jie looked at each other, complaining in their hearts.

Seeing the two of them hesitate, Lin Yi added: "If you encounter their elephant army, you should retreat as soon as possible. Our supervisor army has its own strategy to defeat the enemy."

"No, promise." The two generals took the order.

Both Song Xiance and Li Yan saw this scene, but it was hard for them to say much because Lin Yi was dividing the troops.

Who would have thought that Ji Dong would not further divide the two generals after assigning them. After Zuo Liangyu and Gao Jie left, Lin Yi sent an order to disband the account.

Song Xiance and Li Yan were restless and anxiously dragged Lin Yi to a place where no one was around, and talked quietly for a long time.

Lin Yi laughed after hearing this, you two don't have to worry, Lin can plan freely.
