Chapter 171: The sycophant is right
Chapter 171 The sycophant is right
Wang Daliang was deeply impressed by Qimenpo, under normal circumstances, this is definitely a good place to use soldiers.
The sky was bright, and the morning breeze was blowing, with a hint of coolness. The team continued to move forward, getting closer and closer to Qimenpo, and somehow, Wang Daliang's heart beat faster, faster and faster, as if something bad was about to happen.
Hold on to the reins of the horse and look at the Qimen Slope that is close at hand. It doesn't seem to have changed much, the mountains and forests are a little greener, but they still can't hide the desolation of Guanzhong.
I don't know whose horse had a problem, and let out a series of piercing neighing sounds. Wang Daliang frowned, and suddenly knew what the problem was.
The mountains and forests are already green, and now that it is May, how can there be no birds in the forests? To say that Guanzhong is drought and lack of food, the wild beasts in the forest are all preyed up, but the birds cannot eat them all. Especially the crows, because they gnaw on the carcasses, they grow fat one by one.
There is a problem with Qimenpo!
It seemed to be verifying Wang Daliang's judgment, and when the team was less than half a mile away from Qimen Slope, they finally saw the situation in front of them clearly.
A cavalry of thousands of people was in front of Qimen Slope, they were revitalized tightly, and waited patiently, and the road that must pass through Qimen Slope was even more blocked. Cavalry, different cavalry, chain chains, men and horses in armor.
A man in black armor walked to the front on his horse and shouted: "Wang Daliang, this general has been waiting here for a long time, and you have no way to escape, in order to avoid more casualties, you should surrender." ”
Wang Daliang exhaled a long breath, endured the anger in his heart, and arched his hand from afar, "The general is the iron and ink iron garrison in the north of Jin?" ”
"It's Ben Jiang!"
got an accurate answer, and the last bit of hope in Wang Daliang's heart was gone. The king of Hell in the north of Jin, but there is no one in the righteous army who does not know this person, Wu Yangui, Wang Jiayin, Wang Ziyong and others have been deflated many times in the hands of this person. If it's just an ordinary person, it doesn't deserve the title of Hades.
At this time, Wang Daliang also solved the last doubt in his heart. Last night, there was chaos in Shangzhou, and the other party had obviously taken the North City Gate, but the main reinforcements had delayed for a long time. At the time, I thought that the other party had something to delay, but now that I think about it, it is not at all. The other party must have waited for the cavalry to arrive at Qimenpo for an ambush first, so that they could completely capture Shangzhou and complete the real encirclement.
The other party is a cavalryman, and he is waiting for work. On the other hand, on my side, I have just been defeated, my morale is low, I am tired from a long journey. The battle had not even begun, and the outcome was already predestined.
This time, there was little hope, but there was no panic on Wang Daliang's face, and some just sneered, "General Tie, you are really calculating, you have calculated the right time, and waited for Wang to deliver it to the door in Qimenpo." But it's a pity that Wang dared to do anything in his life, but he didn't dare to be the cowards of surrendered officers and soldiers. ”
"Wang's family of more than a dozen people lost their family business because the county officials bent the law, and finally starved to death. Let Lao Tzu surrender to the government, I will ......"
Tie Mo smiled bitterly and shook his head, the war horse stepped back slightly, and quickly raised his right hand, "Since that's the case, then leave it to fate!" ”
The moment the hand fell, the ironclad cavalry, which had already been ready to attack, rushed towards the peasant army on the opposite side like a torrent. Most people are no strangers to this cavalry, not long ago, the brothers of Luonan City were killed by this cavalry and almost all of them were wiped out.
After hearing about it, after really seeing the horror of this cavalry, I realized that all fears were so taken for granted.
The sound of horses' hooves shook the heavens and the earth, swarming by, stumps and broken arms and countless pieces of flesh hung on the iron cables, the ground was red blood, and many people were constantly wailing.
A hellish scene where the stimulated person either goes crazy, goes berserk, or directly hugs his head and begs for mercy.
This battle seems tragic, but in fact, the outcome has long been predestined. When Li Wanqing and Liu Guoneng's soldiers and horses pressed over from the direction of Shangzhou, the defeat of this peasant army accelerated dramatically.
Wang Daliang fought with a knife, even if he knew that he would die, he did not retreat at all. At the foot of Qimen Slope, Wang Zuohang's gaze stayed on Wang Daliang, and gradually a trace of admiration appeared in his heart.
"Wang Daliang can also be regarded as a sergeant, at least in Wang's eyes, this person knows how to be more sympathetic to his subordinates and the people than Wang Jiayin, Wu Yangui and others!"
Tiemo nodded, and said with some pity: "Yes, he is a good person, but the path he chose cannot save the people of Limin, it will only bring more suffering to the people." ”
Time passed minute by minute, and the foot of Qimen Slope was already covered with the smell of blood, and the moment Wang Daliang fell, the battle was almost over. Xu Li and the others chose to surrender, and the rest either knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, or scattered and fled.
Tiemo joined forces with Liu Yingyu and Wu Guofu, surrounded Wang Daliang's main force at Qimenpo, and under the first battle, Wang Daliang was defeated and died. The remnants of the peasant army entrenched in Shanyang City, after getting the news, abandoned Shanyang as soon as possible, and all fled south to the hinterland of Hanzhong.
On May 15 of the second year of Chongzhen, Tiemo and others defeated Wang Daliang in a row and recaptured Shangluo Dao. The good news arrived at the Forbidden City, and in the face of this good news, Emperor Chongzhen had a headache.
......
Soon after the victory of Qimenpo, a huge convoy came to Yan'an Prefecture, brought a large amount of grain, set up a lot of porridge shacks in Yan'an, Ansai, and Ganquan, and began to provide relief to the victims. This convoy was spontaneously organized by Jin merchants under the banner of disaster relief for His Majesty.
Porridge sheds were set up in various places, and near each porridge shed there was a sharp-tongued person who kept shouting.
Although there are various words shouted, the general idea is still the same. It means that this batch of grain was bought by His Majesty with all his inner money, and the hungry people who have porridge to drink should thank the emperor for his grace and thank God for giving everyone a good emperor.
The matter of soup soup in Yan'an Mansion is in an uproar, which is naturally not a secret.
This kind of thing doesn't need to be bothered by Jin Shang at all, and someone has stabbed the matter to the Forbidden City. Yang He, the governor of the three sides, praised Chongzhen in a book, and praised Chongzhen to the sky, almost saying that Chongzhen was Yao Shun reborn.
Zhu Youzhen, who was sitting in the palace, was very inexplicable, did he buy food for disaster relief, didn't he know?
In order to support Liaodong, coupled with last year's disaster relief, the internal funds were almost emptied, Zhu Youzhen was still worried about where to get money, where to get the money to buy food for disaster relief?
Zhu Youzhen, who was puzzled, hurriedly sent someone to investigate, and soon found out what was going on.
After knowing that this matter was done by Tiemo mobilizing Jin Shang, Zhu Youzhen felt a little ashamed. Tiemo took the initiative to call Jin merchants for disaster relief, and in the end, his good reputation fell on his Chongzhen, but he was still dissatisfied with Tiemo.
Because of the disaster relief, Chongzhen's impression of Tiemo has changed greatly, like such a loyal minister, if he doesn't appreciate it, wouldn't it chill the other party's heart?
Soon, an official document was sent to Shaanxi.
In the holy decree, Chongzhen gave special encouragement to Tiemo, and in addition, he also added Tiemo as the deputy chief soldier of Xuanfu and the garrison of Yunfu, and hung the title of director of the military department.
Of course, except for Tiemo, everyone else who participated in the battle of Qimenpo was rewarded. However, Liu Yingyu and others, compared with Tiemo, it is nothing.
The deputy chief soldier of Xuanfu sounds like a cow, but his authority is still a Yunfu garrison, and his real power has not increased much. But the title of the head of the military department is very different.
Who is Tiemo? That's a big-headed soldier, and he doesn't know what fame is.
It is rare for such a dumpling to become the head of the Ministry of War.
Liu Yingyu and others were envious, but Tiemo was not too excited, in order to shoot Chongzhen's horses, he spent a lot of money and food.
Thankfully, the horses were in the right place.
