218 The two armies clashed

"Report, the front is Xinle County."

Sitting on the horse, looking at the boundless human heads, and listening to the advice of the horse, Zuo Liangyu had a sneer on his face, and immediately turned his head to Hou Sui and said: "That hairy boy, really a fledgling, leading the troops to fight, is really trembling!" ”\m\

"Hehe, it's nature!" Hou Sui listened, stroked his forehead and beard, and said without surprise: "The officials and soldiers of the imperial court, there are only so many people, can he not be nervous?" If he is defeated by us, then even if he escapes back, he will definitely be attacked by his political enemies, and the emperor will blame him for the loss of his troops. ”

Zuo Liangyu nodded when he heard this, and shouted with a sneer: "At the beginning, this menacing thing really scared Ben Shuai. Hehe, one general is incompetent and exhausts the three armies. Just because he doesn't have any hair, he still wants to kill me? Hum! ”

On the Baoding side, after detecting the troops on this side, they immediately responded, and they also pulled out the camp and went south to meet the battle.

At the beginning, the officials and soldiers of the imperial court did not collect it at night, as if they didn't want money, and they all threw it out, and the Tanma on Zuo Liangyu's side was defeated and retreated again and again, and the fierceness of the attack made Zuo Liangyu a little overjoyed.

As a result, before he could start the layout, just two days ago, the nights of the imperial court officials and soldiers did not close, and they receded like a tide. Under the elimination of the other's strengths, Zuo Liangyu's Tanma began to force over, and only then did he figure out the reason.

After the imperial court officials pulled out the camp, Xiao Yuan's camp and the imperial court Beijing camp were like a race, rushing to lead the troops south, obviously, they all wanted to grab merit. However, the Xingguo Gong was quickly frightened, and immediately ordered them to stop, then reintegrate the various departments, and then go south step by step.

In this regard, Zuo Liangyu and Hou Sui all saw that the Xingguo Duke was afraid that the army would lose, so he hurriedly reined in the wild horses that had escaped, and marched with the so-called method of camping step by step and fighting steadily.

What Zuo Liangyu said just now was actually angry words. What he likes most is that the officials and soldiers of the imperial court come to grab merit, not like the steady and steady battle in front of him. Because he also knew that if his troops, if he were to fight hard with the court officials and soldiers, nine times out of ten, he would lose.

"Strategist, at this rate, it is estimated that we will meet that hairy boy near Dingzhou, I think we will fight in this Xinle, right?" Zuo Liangyu thought about it for a while, and then consulted Hou Sui's opinion.

Hou Sui listened, frowned and asked, "What does the big handsome mean is to knock down Xinle?" ”

"Let's see first, it's best if you can beat it, it doesn't matter if you can't beat it!" Zuo Liangyu pointed to the front with his hand and said, "I plan to lure that hairy boy over, and then attack the Dasha River in front of here." ”

"Handsome and wise!" When Hou Sui heard this, he complimented him against his will.

In the past, this kind of thing was usually said to him by Zuo Liangyu.

Half an hour later, they arrived outside Xinle County.

This Xinle county town is on the edge of the Dasha River, and the city is not particularly tall, but the people in it are all on the head of the city, ready for battle.

Zuo Liangyu was old in military affairs, and when he saw it, he shook his head and said hatefully: "Damn, if you want to fight down, it looks like it will take a few days!" ”

In an ordinary county seat, if there are no guards around, most of the people who defend the city are the people and the people. Of course, at this time in the late Ming Dynasty, even if there was a guard, the army of the guardhouse was useless, and it was basically the same as the Minzhuang government.

However, people refuse to defend the city, even if it is a strong government, it is not so easy to fight.

Thinking so, they used the old way again.

Hou Sui stepped forward, and then someone called the door, "Governor Hou is here, why don't you open the door quickly to greet you?" ”

I hope that the news in Xinle County is closed, and before receiving the will of the imperial court, he can use his original identity.

The Xinle County Decree was at the head of the city, and after hearing this, he immediately shouted loudly: "The court has a decree, Hou Sui rebelled, the crime is not forgiven, and he dares to come to the city?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Zuo Liangyu knew that it was useless to repeat the old tricks. He didn't particularly care, he didn't have time to worry about the Xinle County Order now, so he immediately started to cross the river and continue north in the shallow river section that had been explored by Tanma before.

Standing on a high post in the distance outside the city, Zuo Liangyu shouted: "Ma is loyal! ”

"The last general!" When Ma Duzhong heard this, he immediately went out of the queue and stood by with his fists in his fists.

Zuo Liangyu looked at him and said coldly: "Your department is the vanguard of the army, you are not allowed to win if you are defeated, and you will lure them to hurry south!" ”

Speaking of this, he paused and then reminded: "Remember, the main thing is to seduce Xiao Yuanying. ”

"The last general obeys!" Ma Duzhong heard this, and immediately clenched his fists to receive his life.

When Hou Sui heard this on the side, he opened his mouth and added: "Drive more miscellaneous soldiers up, well, just those old and weak women and children, if they don't dare to start, there is a advantage to take advantage of, then kill for a while, if not, provoke the other party, the effect will be better!" ”

"The last general obeys!" Ma Duzhong understood, and immediately replied.

Zuo Liangyu then assigned a few more subordinates, and the task was basically the same, that is, to stimulate the imperial court officials and troops and lure them into pursuit.

Watching his subordinates take orders one by one, Zuo Liangyu glanced at Xinle County in the distance and said, "It's not easy to ambush here, but there are those miscellaneous soldiers in the way, and it's almost the same." ”

After following his gaze and glancing at Xinle County, Hou Sui frowned and suggested: "Marshal, although Xinle County is mainly people-strong, but this time it is the powerful Xingguo Gong who leads the troops. ”

If it was an ordinary commander who led the troops, he didn't have this concern. But Xingguo Gong is different, now the power is monstrous, if you can hug Xingguo Gong's thigh, Feihuang Tengda is just around the corner. He thinks that as long as it is possible, the people in the officialdom will definitely not let go of this opportunity.

Zuo Liangyu listened, turned his head to stare at Xinle County, and then looked at the section where the army crossed the river, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, just according to the words of the military advisor!" ”

In war, he is still very careful.

So, the army continued north. The old thief coerced the people, like a flock of sheep, and marched all over the mountains.

Zuo Liangyu and Hou Sui pointed out the road conditions along the way from time to time and deployed their subsequent actions.

Two days later, Zuo Liangyu's rear army had not yet finished crossing the river. And their former army has already appeared in Dingzhou, and they have begun to contact with the vanguard of the imperial court's official army.

Dingzhou, like Xinle County, is closed. The whole city was strong, and they watched the battle at the head of the city.

The vanguard of the imperial court officials and army was the Beijing Camp Department.
