When Liu Ping opened his eyes, he only felt that the sun was extremely dazzling.

It took him a long time to get used to it.

Looking around, Liu Ping found that more than a dozen Ming army men surrounded him, and it was his companion Zhao Xiaowu who was tied up as a zongzi in a corner.

It was a makeshift shed made of weeds, probably at the foot of the mountain.

Liu Pingxun touched it for a moment, plucked up his courage and asked, "Master Jun, what kind of place is this?" ”

"Shut up!"

A sturdy Ming soldier glared at Liu Ping viciously, causing Liu Ping to shrink his neck in fright.

"Do you want to slaughter these two thieves? All the questions that should be asked have already been asked. They are no longer worthless. ”

As soon as he heard this, Liu Ping's face was as white as paper with fright, and cold sweat suddenly appeared from the corner of his forehead.

"Don't be in a hurry, take them back to see General Ai."

Obviously, these dozen or so people are the sentinels of the Ming army, and Liu Ping can only consider himself unlucky when they fall into the hands of the Ming army.

Whether he can survive or not depends on the face of the Ming army.

But fortunately, now he doesn't have to die.

I hope that General Ai in their mouth is a good person and let them live.

However, it was said that the group went to Ai Chengye's army and threw Liu Ping and Zhao Xiaowu, who were tied up with five flowers, into Ai Chengye's big tent.

Ai Chengye, who was sitting at the top, glanced at the two of them and said disdainfully: "What did the two thieves do when they brought them back?" Stained the eyes of the general! ”

He was only twenty, and he was young and empty-eyed.

This time he was recommended by Li Dingguo to be a pioneer officer, and Ai Chengye wanted to make a name for himself in the first war and establish his position in the army.

He really didn't pay attention to the two Qing soldiers.

"General Qiqi Zhao, these two are the sentry riders under the command of the thief Zhao Liangdong, and they were captured by us in the mountains, we thought that they might be of some use, so we brought them to see you."

Ai Chengye said disdainfully: "What important things can you know about just two sentinels?" ”

"General Ai, the little one knows the ratio of our army's soldiers, and he is willing to tell the general."

"Oh?"

Ai Chengye saw Liu Ping's desire to survive, so he asked casually.

"General Ai, our army has about 80,000 green battalion soldiers, 15,000 flag soldiers, and 5,000 general standard battalion soldiers."

This number is really not something Liu Ping said.

In the Qing army, this is not a secret thing, almost everyone knows it.

It is not surprising that Liu Ping knows this number.

However, it is indeed a useful piece of information for Ai Chengye.

First of all, the Qing army was dominated by green battalion soldiers, and the entire army of 80,000 was green battalion soldiers.

What kind of combat effectiveness the green battalion soldiers are, Ai Chengye is very clear. Isn't this the original Ming Dynasty official army?

In the past, the official army was beaten by the peasant army, thinking that they could be beaten by changing their clothes?

As for the combat effectiveness of the standard battalion under Zhao Liangdong, it must be much stronger than the ordinary green battalion, but it will not be the opponent of the Ming army.

The only thing that interested Ai Chengye was the so-called Eight Flags Elite.

Fifteen thousand. Gee...

The Eight Banners are known to be invincible, but Ai Chengye doesn't believe it.

After all, King Jin has broken the undefeated golden body of the Eight Banners, and Ai Chengye, who can do what Li Dingguo can do, firmly believes that he can also do it.

If he can overcome this fifteen thousand Eight Banners Army, Ai Chengye will be able to completely make a name for himself in the Ming army.

"Come on, take the two of them down and imprison them for the time being."

Ai Chengye waved his hand.

Most of the soldiers under his command are the team of his father Ainengqi, and they are naturally very attentive to assist.

The veteran Chen Yongsi pondered for a moment and suggested: "If the thieves attack, they must pass through Wollongong." We might as well set a bush here. Passing through Wollongong is the Happy Horse River, and we set up two volts here! The thief who will definitely be beaten cries his father and calls his mother. ”

Ai Chengye still respects Chen Yong very much.

He nodded and said, "What General Chen said is reasonable, so let's set up an ambush here according to what you said." ”

Although Ai Chengye is young and vigorous, he is not stupid enough to have to fight Dongyu.

Besides, the soldiers are treacherous, why don't you play yin if you can play yin?

...

...

Although Zhao Liangdong's temper is a little shorter, he has been by Hong Chengchou's side for so many years, and he can still suppress his temperament.

When formulating the route of the march, he learned that Wollongong was a necessary place, so Zhao Liangdong decided to send a pioneer battalion to go first.

The first is to explore the way, and the second is to minimize the risk.

After all, the terrain of Wollongong is too easy to ambush.

In case the Ming army really laid an ambush here, the pioneer battalion could serve the purpose of luring the Ming army to move.

In this way, although Zhao Liangdong will have some sacrifices, most of them can still be preserved.

It's better than a whole army going together and being ambushed together.

Of course, Zhao Liangdong felt that it was still possible for the Ming army not to set up an ambush.

After all, this time he is menacing, with a full 100,000 troops.

The Ming army was probably too frightened to leave the city when they saw this battle.

Zhao Liangdong just made two preparations to ensure that there would be no problems.

Steady and steady is his usual style.

In the face of an enemy army stronger than him, Zhao Liangdong may not have an advantage, but in the face of an enemy army weaker than him, Zhao Liangdong can eat him steadily.

In Zhao Liangdong's view, the Ming army was the weaker side compared to him this time. Zhao Liangdong will not take risks, even if it is a blunt knife to cut the meat, he will cut off this piece of meat little by little!

...

...

The officer who was sent by Zhao Liangdong as a pioneer was named Sun Ji, who had been a deputy general by Zhao Liangdong's side for many years and won Zhao Liangdong's trust.

Sun Ji has one of the biggest characteristics, that is, he does not fight unprepared battles and does not take uncertain roads.

Before leaving for Wollongong, he sent several sentry mounts to reconnoitre, and only after receiving satisfactory information did he lead his army to set off.

The vanguard battalion consisted of 3,000 men, mostly infantry except for a small number of cavalry.

But the speed of the march was not slow, and under Sun Ji's command, the Qing army's vanguard battalion marched in an orderly manner.

A senior once told Sun Ji that stability is stupidity, and hesitation will lead to defeat.

But Sun Ji felt that there should still be caution. To respect your opponent is to respect yourself.

The Ming army was not a scarecrow, and it was impossible to sit idly by and watch the Qing army advance.

After entering Wollongong, Sun Ji always observed the situation on both sides, and when there was any disturbance, he vigilantly ordered the army to stop.

This place feels like there are ambushes everywhere!

Sun Ji was dressed in a full suit of armor and was already soaking wet.

Although he didn't see a shadow of the Ming army at present, Sun Ji always felt that something was wrong.

His instincts are often accurate, and at the moment he feels that something big is about to happen!

"Stop!"

Sun Ji suddenly spoke, and his own soldiers immediately went to give the order.

The mountain trail was very narrow, the line was long, and it took a long time for the soldiers at the front to learn the order.

After all the soldiers stopped, Sun Ji said in a deep voice: "Don't continue to go yet, send someone to the hill to take a look." ”
