Chapter 135: The First Battle of the Righteous Army against Lu Xiangsheng

The strategy was established, and the righteous armies from all walks of life were able to implement the strategy, and to the surprise of the officers and soldiers, the progress went smoothly all the way, and after occupying the west mountain of Lincheng, they drove directly to Shunde and Zhending.

On this day, the officers and soldiers were surrounded in Lengshui Village to guerrilla Dong Weikun.

The rebels rarely encountered enemies along the way, and their morale was high, and after surrounding them, they launched a fierce attack on Dong Weikun's headquarters.

This Dong Weikun was not afraid, divided his troops to resist, and after a few rounds, he finally retreated to the village to hold on because he was outnumbered and suffered serious losses.

The rebels couldn't help him for a while, and they couldn't help but be impetuous: "Fuck, I can't even take a small Lengshui village, how can I capture the capital?" Hmph, he's just a few people, let's rush up together, and one person and one foot also stumbled on him. ”

Obviously, that's what everyone thinks. Therefore, after another attack was thwarted, there was no one to order, and the rebels slowly poured into the village under the cover of several rows of shield-armed soldiers.

Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to the village, Dong Weikun's unit was in danger of being trampled to death at any time, and suddenly, a team of officers and soldiers came straight over, shouting and waving a big knife.

Who? According to the envoy Lu Xiangsheng and the "Tianxiong Army" led by him.

Lu Xiangsheng is a native of Yixing County, Changzhou Prefecture (now Yixing, Jiangsu) in the south of Zhili, the word Jiandou, and the word Douzhan, Jiezhan, No. 9.

Lu Xiangsheng was originally a literati, with a fair complexion, and a very thin person, but he had a thick bone on his arm, which was infinitely powerful, and he was good at archery, and he was skilled in martial arts, and he was very capable of leading troops.

After the "changes that have passed", Lu Xiangsheng summed up a set of theories: the more you go into battle to kill the enemy, the more desperate you are, the smaller the casualties tend to be. Why? The more you fight and the enemy is already scared, the better chance you have of killing him.

Under the guidance of his theory, the "Tianxiong Army" under his command has undoubtedly become one of the most effective units in the Ming army.

The so-called combat effectiveness naturally refers not only to recklessly fighting oneself, but also to grasp the enemy's situation and the successful use of strategy.

The fact is also that there is no need to be reminded by the Ministry of War, Lu Xiangsheng has noticed the enemy's situation, set up a strategy, and is waiting for the net. Dong Weikun and his subordinates were the bait he sent.

But the rebels didn't know, but thought it was an encounter: "Hmph, anyway, it's all about destroying the enemy, a few are destroyed, and a group is also destroyed." ”

I never thought that Lu Xiangsheng and his subordinates were unusually tenacious, especially Lu Xiangsheng, he didn't care if the blade cut his saddle, and fought on foot when the war horse died. Several times the arrow nearly hit him in the forehead, and all the servants were dead, but he refused to stop fighting.

"Where the fuck is this person, it's clearly a living Hades, don't touch him, whoever bumps into him will die."

The rebel army began to waver, Dong Weikun and his subordinates took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and the rebel army was defeated and went to the south of Shicheng to rout.

When he arrived in the south of Deshi City, he didn't have time to catch his breath, and suddenly shouted again.

Yan Yingxiang hurriedly looked up, but saw that the general led his troops to rush over with a shout.

Yan Yingxiang didn't know that this person was Liang Fu, the chief soldier under Lu Xiangsheng's account, and he was Lu Xiangsheng's ambush all the way.

This Liang Fu, because he worships Lu Xiangsheng, will involuntarily imitate Lu Xiangsheng when he goes into battle. Under his influence, the combat effectiveness of the department is not inferior.

Yan Yingxiang fought with it for a while, and when he saw that he couldn't win, he was afraid that Lu Xiangsheng would catch up, and he was caught by it, so he was busy blocking it and turning to Qinglonggang.

Qinglonggang is not unusual, after Gao Yingxiang saw it again and again, he breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head to look at the people and horses of the department, most of them had been lost, and all the rest were depressed, and secretly thought: "The more frustrated you are, the more you should maintain your fighting spirit, and if you go on like this, don't wait for the officers and soldiers to suppress you, I'm afraid you will disperse."

Well, we have to cheer them up, but we can't let them disperse. As long as we don't disperse, we will fight the court to the end, no matter how strong he is. “

After making up his mind, he pretended to be complacent and said: "It is said that the Ming general who fights with us is clever, I don't see it, if he arranges another group of men and horses here, where can I escape?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Lu Xiangsheng's second ambush soldier, Senator Kou Conghua's department, rushed over from the side.

Gao Yingxiang was startled, shouted "Quickly retreat, to Wu'an", personally retreated, and fought and retreated.

Kou Conghua's department was not in a hurry, as if he was sticky, and followed all the way.

The reason why Kou Conghua is not in a hurry is naturally to buy time for Lu Xiangsheng, Liang Fu, Dong Weikun and others.

It turned out that Lu Xiangsheng was determined that after three charges, Gao Yingxiang and the others must have been like frightened birds, and designated to go to Wu'an and try to meet with the rear army. Therefore, after rushing and killing, the three of them took a shortcut and rushed to Wu'an to wait, and they wanted to completely annihilate Gao Yingxiang's department in Wu'an.

It should be said that Lu Xiangsheng is still a good person, although this Kou Conghua is not as brave as Liang Fu and Dong Weikun, but he is good at strategy.

After his struggle, the speed of Gao Yingxiang's troops was inevitably greatly reduced, and when they finally reached Wu'an, Lu Xiangsheng and the others had already set up a formation and were waiting.

Seeing them coming, Lu Xiangsheng violently waved the command flag in his hand twice, and the officers and soldiers surrounded him again.

Gao Yingxiang shouted "Kill—" and drove his horse up.

The officers and men had the upper hand, their morale was greatly boosted, and they had been in battle for a long time, were well-trained, and killed in moderation.

Although Gao Yingxiang's department lost most of it and its morale was low, the rest were all elites, and they were able to defeat ten with one.

When the two meet, one wants to annihilate the enemy, and the other wants to take the road and flee, both of them sacrifice their lives to fight.

Seeing the brothers who had been with him for many years fall down one by one, Gao Yingxiang couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh: "Could it be that God wants to destroy me Gao Yingxiang here?" ”

The sigh continued, Hao Yongzhong violently snatched the big flag with the word "Chuang" from the hand of the flag officer beside Gao Yingxiang, waved the big flag on the horse, and rushed towards the official army with a wild shout.

When the soldiers of the righteous army who were panicking and wavering saw the banner of "Chuang" rushing forward, they all followed behind and rushed forward shouting wildly, killing the officers and men one after another.

Yan Yingxiang's heart perked, shouted, and took the opportunity to rush to the officers and soldiers, killing fiercely.

Lu Xiangsheng had already paid attention to him, and ordered the officers and soldiers to rush to kill him together, and he was in danger.

was in a hurry, but saw Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, one left and one right, rushing over from the side, and hurriedly shouted, "Yan Yingxiang is here", and slashed and killed two officers and soldiers who surrounded him.

How did these two come about? It turned out that after occupying Xishan, the rebel army originally agreed to move tentatively and advance steadily. The two were tired and went back to sleep. After waking up, he learned that Yan Yingxiang had personally led his troops to besiege Dong Weikun.

Li Zicheng knew that he was eager to fight, so he secretly shouted "not good", and led his troops to look for him.

Although Zhang Xianzhong blamed him for stealing the limelight everywhere, he was still quite convinced in his heart, and when he saw him like this, he hurriedly followed.

Before arriving in Wu'an, they had already heard the sound of killing, and these two hurried horses came over and went straight to the banner of "Chuang".

Seeing Yan Yingxiang, these two didn't say much, stepped forward to protect them, rushed to kill, tore a gap, and got out of trouble.

Lu Xiangsheng led his troops to chase and kill for a while, and seeing that he could no longer catch up, he collected troops and checked the points, killed a total of 11 leaders of the rebel army, annihilated countless of his henchmen, collected and repatriated more than 20,000 men and women, and ordered to register and report to the imperial court.
