Breaking the Game (5)

Chen wanted to bend his bow and shoot again, but he couldn't find the target. Dozens of Yuan soldiers wearing Luo ring armor surrounded him regardless of life and death, blocking a human wall in front of him.

The soldiers of the Broken Army were afraid that the commander would lose, and they also hugged him under the leadership of the junior officers. For a while, the two sides gathered into a lump of people with Chen Hangyan as the core, slashing each other with knives against the opponent's nose. Shoulder to shoulder, knee to knee.

Lu Shikui stood up with the support of his own soldiers, jumped on a war horse, and before he could break through a few steps, the war horse under his crotch was shot to death with a cold arrow. He fell off his horse again, and stood up again, and the iron spear that he relied on to become famous did not know where he had lost it, and he held a scimitar in his hand, and he would not retreat from death.

"Chop his handsome flag, chop his handsome flag!" In the crowd, someone shouted loudly. When the officers were trained at the night school, someone taught such an experience, and cutting down the enemy's commander's flag in the chaos can disrupt the enemy's command to the greatest extent and affect the opponent's morale.

Hearing the shout, a group of broken sergeants on the edge of the battle group no longer squeezed towards Lu Shikui, quickly adjusted their direction, and rushed towards the flag officer of the Lu department. Among the newly attached army, there were also dozens of dead soldiers who stepped forward to intercept them, and when the two sides touched, it was a cloud of blood mist.

Buried in the head, blocking the waist, slashing, and dancing, the broken blade bloomed a gorgeous knife flower in the crowd. When Zou Wei was reorganizing the army for Chen Hangyan, he specially strengthened the training of swordsmanship according to the physical condition of the volunteers. At this moment, the two armies collided hard, and the results of the training were immediately apparent. With the kung fu of half a pillar of incense, more than 30 soldiers of the Broken Army broke through the enemy's defense line and killed in front of the flag officer of the Lu Department. The flag officer of the Lu Department was shocked and drew his sword to face the battle. One of the Breakers slashed his scimitar, and the other rushed to the side and swept diagonally, the steel knife bypassing the dense Luo Ring Armor and slashing heavily at the flag-bearer's uncovered calf.

"Ahh The flag bearer screamed in pain and fell to his knees. The third sergeant rushed forward and killed him with a single sword. The fourth sergeant stepped forward to cut off Lu Shikui's handsome flag, grabbed half of the flagpole, waved it a few times in the air, and then quickly chopped the handsome flag into pieces.

"Lu Shikui is dead, kill Lu Shikui!" Chen Hang's eyes were on the back of the horse, and he shouted at the top of his voice.

"Ben Shuai is here! Ben Shuai is here" Lu Shikui was so angry that his eyes were on fire, and he jumped on the horse for the third time and retorted loudly. His voice was drowned out in exclamations. The nearby soldiers of the Broken Army shouted in unison, spreading the news of Lu Shikui's death. The Yuan soldiers in the distance didn't know the truth, and when they turned around, they couldn't see Lu Shikui's handsome banner, and their already low morale became even lower, so they gave up resistance and turned away. The Yuan soldiers who stood in front of Chen Hangyan's horse could not get effective support, and the more they fought, the less they fought, and finally they couldn't support it, and they were forcibly rushed open by the broken army.

At this moment, even the gods have no way to turn the tide. Lu Shikui immediately made a decision, led his own soldiers, and fought and left, and kept gathering the Yuan army that fled like a headless fly around him.

For this kind of poor man, Chen Hangyan does not fight hard. Turning the horse's head, he rushed towards the other stubborn Yuan troops. Those Yuan soldiers were already unable to support it, and the flanks were rushed by the cavalry of the Broken Army, and the defense line immediately collapsed.

The more than 100,000 yuan army was driven away from the battlefield like ducks by the broken army, which was less than one-third of their number, and fled for their lives to the southeast.

In front of Zhang Hongzheng's war horse, the routs were like a tide, and his personal soldiers couldn't stand steadily. At this moment, he didn't dare to force the pressure anymore, so he had to turn his horse's head and retreat backwards surrounded by the rout. Not far behind him, Chen Shuang, a good man in the green forest who had just been under Chen Hangyan's command, chased after him desperately, and the iron shovel flew up and down, and anyone who stood in front of him, whether it was a person or a horse, was flattened.

Zeng Qin, the staff commander in charge of dispatch in the Chinese army, saw this and knew that the opportunity could not be lost. With a command, the war drums were beaten loudly.

The soldiers of the Broken Army stepped on the drums and rushed to kill, and the steel knives rolled up a thousand waves of blood.

A few of the new annex soldiers couldn't run, threw away their weapons, and fell to their knees.

Chen Shuang's horse ran past them, and the iron shovel swung sharply a few times, and the newly attached sergeant who surrendered immediately turned into pulp. Seeing this, the new attached sergeant who was about to surrender quickly jumped up and ran for his life.

"General Chen, break the military rules of the prisoners, and don't kill the prisoners!" Someone reminded loudly.

"Don't kill, when they slaughtered the village, they never left a living mouth. Brothers, rush forward and kill but not take prisoners! Chen Shuang shouted with red eyes.

A few Fujian soldiers who were covered in blood beside him gritted their teeth and repeated this order, "General Chen has an order, only kill and not take prisoners, only kill and not take prisoners!" ”

In the midst of the chaos, ordinary soldiers could not tell which General Chen's order was. Raise your knife and catch up with your exhausted opponents and slash them from behind. Even if the opponent lays down his weapon, he unceremoniously makes up for it.

Dozens of new annex soldiers, who were expected to be unable to escape, turned around and rushed into the ranks of the Breakers in despair, splashing a few blood flowers before falling.

Dozens of soldiers of the Han army and the Tanma Red Army stopped and automatically lined up in two rows, blocking in front of the broken army.

More than 100 Han troops, Tanma Red Army, and dozens of Mongolian warriors turned around and joined the war group. In desperation, the combat effectiveness of the Yuan army increased by more than one level. Chen Shuang, who was chasing at the front, was stopped, and the iron shovel knocked over five or six people, but more people squeezed over and stopped in front of his horse.

Chen Shuang slammed a stocky Mongolian into the mud. Lifting the mace again, he knocked a steel knife out with its owner, and struck it again, and swept a guy in the centurion uniform of the Tanma Red Army at the waist. Before he could retract his hammer, a broken scimitar slashed at the base of his thigh.

"Grandma......" Chen Shuang turned his head and scolded angrily, but saw the face of only a teenager sticking to his horse's back. The owner of the face had been slashed by the brothers, and the blood gushed like a spring. But the hand holding the knife refused to let go, and mechanically went up and down, stabbing at his waist and legs, "squeak, squeak", stabbing the chain mail with an unpleasant sound.

"You ......" Chen Shuang's heart softened for no reason, he deflected the iron shovel, bent his arms, and pushed the young man who jumped on his horseback. The young man fell from the horse's back like an autumn leaf, his body was no longer able to move, but his eyes were staring at Chen Shuang, full of resentment.

"You killed my family first!" Chen Shuang shouted at the dead boy, but he suddenly felt extremely sad in his heart, full of depression and nowhere to release.

"Ahh

"Those who descend will not die, and those who descend will not die!" Chen's hang-eyed herald rushed over with a command flag, his voice so pale and weak.

The sun slowly set over the distant hills, and the earth fell into silence after a day's fighting.

Beside the drum mountain, piles of bonfires were lit. The soldiers of the Breakers sat in front of the camps, arranging their armor and collecting their swords and arrows. The flame illuminates the tired faces, illuminates the confusion in every pair of eyes.

In the battle during the day, they won a complete victory, killing the two Northern Yuan soldiers and horses commanded by Lü Shikui and Zhang Hongzheng, and fled far away to the front line of Hua'an and Longyan. At this point, there is no longer a large force of Yuan troops near Zhangzhou and Changtai, and hundreds of thousands of fathers and elders who hid in Zhangzhou City have been preserved.

However, they did not have the heart to sing a song of triumph. In all directions, the houses were gone, the villages were gone, and the green crops that had been seen on the way to Quang Nam had turned to ash and sprinkled on the farmland. The wives and children who stayed at home also cut off the news, even if they were lucky enough to escape the slaughter of the Yuan army, they would soon face the dilemma of freezing and starvation.

And the culprits who caused all these consequences were strictly ordered by Zeng Qin, the commander of the staff, not to be killed at will. Chen Shuang, the battalion of the 1st Cavalry Battalion, killed a few in front of the battle, and after the battle, he was beaten with 20 sticks in public and demoted to the commander of the group.

Is it possible to let the murderer escape punishment for the sake of the false name of a righteous teacher? Most of the soldiers couldn't figure it out and held their depression in their hearts.

At this moment, Chen Hangyan was more depressed than the soldiers under his command in his heart, standing in the Chinese military tent, constantly patting the table. The roar passed through the thin walls of the tent and could be heard from afar.

He also agreed with the order to strictly prohibit the killing of prisoners. After all, he is already the commander of the first army, not the original green forest chief who is happy to enmity and revenge. In addition to fighting, we must also think about "important" issues such as how to develop and grow the captive army. In the eyes of the great Chen family, killing the captives with a knife was not only too cheap to withstand the crimes they committed in Fujian. And for the Fujian Metropolitan Governor's Office, it is also a big loss.

It would obviously be more cost-effective to stuff all these captives into the mines everywhere and let them never see the light of day for the rest of their lives, and to work to atone for their sins. The armor on his body, the blade in his hand, and the war horse under his crotch are all conjured from ore. No one goes to mine, and no matter how dexterous Xiao Zi and Lynn are, they can't cook without rice.

Therefore, Chen Hangyan raised his hands in favor of Zeng Qin's proposal to ban the killing of prisoners and punish Chen Shuang. But what he couldn't accept was that the staff officers led by Zeng Qin actually stood up together to prevent him from taking advantage of the victory to kill Yong'an.

"Even if it's a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, we have to jump inside. Without Master Wen, there would be no broken army of these four targets. If you don't save you when you die, you can't do it, and don't force me to do it! Chen Hangyan shouted angrily, and the handsome case under his hand was squeaked by him.

"No one is forcing you to do it, but as the commander of an army, you have to think about the survival of the whole army, not personal grudges. If you kill the past recklessly like this, not only will you not be able to save Lord Wen, but tens of thousands of soldiers will also be buried by you. General Zhang Shijie's lessons are there, and the Jianghuai force under his command is no less than our four bidders! Staff officer Zeng Qin stood at the corner of the tent and replied slowly.

He is the first batch of highly talented students who came out of the Shaowu Military Academy's crash course in command, and the younger brother of Zeng Huan, chief of staff of the Metropolitan Governor's Office. Zeng Huan was ordered by Wen Tianxiang to assist Chen Hangyan to rescue Zhang Shijie. After Chen Hangyan successfully met Mrs. Xu, he was worried about the safety of Fujian and rushed back by sea. Before leaving, he left Zeng Qin with Chen Hangyan.

Chen Hangyan has an inexplicable good impression of this short and weak staff officer. The matter of marching and fighting is always discussed with them. And Zeng Qin also lived up to his expectations, and every plan he offered must be successful.

is because the two of them have occasional disputes, and Chen Hangyan will also take half a step back in line with the intention of not being embarrassed by the juniors. Zeng Qin did not think much of himself, scrupulously abided by his duties as a staff officer, and rarely interfered in other affairs in the army.

The generals also admired this new staff officer, because he was young and delicate, and was often called "Little Zhou Yu".

No one expected that there would be a fundamental conflict between the two men's opinions. One insisted on moving forward lightly and killing Yong'an. One refused to agree, and asked to take the army to Quanzhou Mansion to wait and see in the Anxi area to find the corresponding fighters.

The generals of the first tent didn't speak, staring at the small ones with big eyes, waiting for Chen Hangyan and Zeng Qin to argue with the result. In all fairness, both men have a point. Wen Tianxiang's stubborn defense of Yong'an was not a wise move in the first place. If he shrank the battle line to the banks of the Min River, the current situation would be much clearer, and the four standard broken captives of the Chen Department could also calmly abandon the two prefectures of Zhangquan and rush to Jianpu by sea to join the headquarters of the Dadu Governor's Office.

Lose land and save people, and strive for the initiative in the movement. This is the truth that has always been emphasized in the night school of officers, and every general and leading officer in the army understands and can understand the sacrifices made by the people of Fujian in the Dadu Governor's Mansion when it is absolutely necessary.

But Wen Tianxiang stayed in Yong'an. Qingliu, Yong'an, Daiyun Mountain and Quanzhou are used as a long line of defense. Except for Dai Yunshan, this defense line is basically unsafe, causing the entire battle situation to be very passive.

In contrast, Zhang Hongfan's tactics are much more clever. He attacked Yong'an a little, and only sent troops to attack Qingliu and various places in Quanzhou Prefecture.

Qingliu and Quanzhou's broken army knew about the Yong'an crisis, and they did not dare to consider it to Wen Tianxiang. And once the Yuan army formed a breakthrough in Yong'an, Qingliu and Quanzhou would also be lost. On the surface, the Breaker Army defended two and a half states, but in fact it was in danger of losing everything.

Therefore, Chen Hangyan has to be desperate to save Yong'an. He couldn't let Wen Tianxiang's headquarters be defeated by Zhang Hongfan, once Wen Tianxiang himself was injured or unfortunately fell into the hands of Zhang Hongfan, the entire Broken Army would lose its backbone. Next, it is possible to be broken by Zhang Hongfan one by one.

However, Zeng Qin strongly advocated moving to Quanzhou. The reason is that Zhang Hongfan has always been cunning in using troops, and the current battle situation is surprisingly similar to the battle situation in Guangnan, and it may be another encirclement to send reinforcements. If the four standards of the Chen Department are gone, it will be gone, and it will inevitably enter a dead end. At that time, not only will Yong'an's predicament be unsolvable, but Wen Tianxiang will have to come out of Yong'an to rescue Chen Hangyan. Abandon the city with weak troops and fight in the field, once it is unfavorable, it will lose the whole game.

"Whew! Do you think that if we don't save Yong'an, we will be able to hold the two states of Zhang and Quan. As soon as the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is defeated, Zhang Hongfan will turn around and pounce. Besides, if we don't go to the rescue at this moment, what will the heroes of the world say! Chen Hangyan forcibly suppressed the anger and lowered his voice.

If Zeng Qin is the master in his own cottage, his suggestion Chen Hangyan can be ignored. Anyway, in the military regulations of the Broken Army, the staff officer only has the power to assist in the operation, and cannot interfere with the command of the commander-in-chief. But Zeng Qin is the younger brother of Chief of Staff Zeng Huan, and he has always been true to his word, and if he is not convinced, Chen Hangyan is really unwilling.

In addition, there was a vague feeling in his heart that controlled Chen Hangyan's actions, and he didn't know what it was for. I always feel that if I don't let this staff officer be convinced, even if I force a decision, I will lose face.

"As a staff officer, the first element is to be calm and not consider face issues that have nothing to do with the outcome of the war." Zeng Qin replied lightly, walked to the map, drew a line in the area of Anxi and Qingyang Iron Field, and analyzed in a low voice: "Besides, when we move troops to Quanzhou, we don't give up Yong'an and don't save it. If you can join forces with the Quanzhou soldiers and horses and press Zhang Hongfan's flank together, the threat to the Yuan army will be greater. Since Zhang Hongfan used Yong'an's trap to lure us into the bait, before we arrived, he would not be willing to really capture Yong'an, and collect the bait before he hung the fish!

Chen Hangyan has never been afraid of slapping the table with others, but he can't do anything about a tepid person like Zeng Qin. Just as he was thinking about how to refute, he heard Zeng Qin say again.

"Our army moved to Anxi first and made a detour to rescue Yong'an. Zhang Hongfan could not figure out the strategic intentions of our army, so he naturally continued to wait. And at this time, it is the opportunity of our army! ”

"But this also makes the prime minister too risky, and your brother is also in Yong'an, so you don't worry about his life and death?" Chen Hangyan was so angry that he completely lost his temper, and he understood Zeng Qin's method, which was actually to use Wen Tianxiang's Metropolitan Governor's Mansion as bait. Attract Zhang Hongfan's main force to Yong'an, while Chen's army is slowly plotting on the periphery.

This trick is spicy and spicy, and it is too ruthless. It is entirely based on the assumption that Zhang Hongfan will not do his best to attack Yongan. At present, the news from Yongan has been cut off, and the last information is that Zhang Hongfan waved his troops to attack urgently, regardless of the life and death of his subordinates.

"When classes are held at the military school, the gentleman teaches, gives advice, and uses all favorable conditions to achieve victory. All other questions can be ignored! Zeng Qin replied lightly, making Chen Hang's eyes full of smoke again.

"What about you, what do you think?" In desperation, Chen Hangyan had no choice but to ask his subordinates for help. In order to rely on the advantage of numbers, he persuaded Zeng Qin to dispel this idea. Although Zeng Qin's strategy seems to be safer than directly rescuing Yong'an, the risks taken are unknown, and it is more uncertain than falling into Zhang Hongfan's encirclement and then breaking through.

"This ......." several generals looked at each other. In their hearts, they are more inclined to Zeng Qin's suggestion. However, the four standards of the Chen Department are not the descendants of Wen Tianxiang's original lineage, and once he makes a roundabout move, it is easy to be misunderstood. In the future, when the Fujian campaign is over, it is inevitable that some people will give birth to right and wrong from it.

"Say, don't mother-in-law, mother-in-law. I just became a prisoner army, why did I become an official addict! Chen Hangyan saw some clues from the eyes of his subordinates, and reprimanded dissatisfiedly.

"I agree with Staff Officer Zeng's suggestion!" Outside the door, an answer rang out. The curtain was high, and a heroic female general walked in.
