Chapter 466: After the Great Victory
After returning from the victory, Ningyuan City was a sensation, the people sang and laughed on the street, the gongs and drums did not stop, and Chang Yu soaked in the hot water bucket for a long time.
Li Tiezhu came to report, the damage report has been registered, the Gongzi battalion lost forty-seven brothers, almost everyone was wounded, the Jinwuwei elite cavalry lost thirty-two, everyone hung the lottery, and the infantry battalion except for one guy sprained his foot, one was not injured and died!
Poof, Chang Yu squirted out a sip of tea!
The 3,000 men and horses did not lose a single person, and they can go down in history! Some of the infantry battalions later boasted.
This is the magic of his tactics, these musketeers have never been involved in melee combat from the beginning to the end!
Wu Sangui killed more than 1,600 men and horses in the battle and wounded more than 3,000.
More than 6,000 horses and thousands of bows, arrows and knives were killed by killing 5,736 Qing troops (including prisoners who were killed, and the little eunuchs should not be alive).
Most of the camp of the Qing army was burned, but fortunately, those who set the fire deliberately avoided grain and grass, and got tents, grain and grass, carts, and countless other baggage.
In this battle, the vanguard of the Qing army was almost completely annihilated.
"Xiao Ran, Xiao Ran" Chang Yu yelled at the top of his voice while getting dressed.
Xiao Ran, the big leader of the Jinyi Guard in Ningyuan, hurriedly pushed the door in.
"Sent a letter to the capital overnight, Ning Yuan won a great victory, annihilated 6,000 enemies, the emperor needs this good news now, and Daming also needs this good news!"
Xiao Ran received the order, but did not leave immediately, as if he had something to say.
The little eunuch glanced at him: "If there is a fart, let it go."
"Lord Governor, Li Yan has arrived in Ningyuan."
"When?" Chang Yu was shocked, he was exhausted from an afternoon of fighting, and after returning to the city, he got into the hot water bucket and didn't come out, not knowing that Li Yanbu had arrived on the ground.
"At noon, his troops were ordered by Wu Sangui to temporarily stay in Zhonghou, and when Li Yan more than ten people went north to Ningyuan with light equipment, the war was nearing the end, and Wu Sangui should go to watch the battle, and he should also return to the city at this time."
Chang Yu sighed, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, Wu Sangui is showing off, or demonstrating, the most likely is to show off the second generation to the mud legs.
Show off what?
The armor is bright, the equipment is complete, it can fight, and it has won......
There should be both.
"Overseer, there is one more thing, the assassin has not left Ningyuan City, and his brothers have found his traces again, and they are being investigated" Xiao Ran looked angry, the elusive assassin was not caught, it was a great humiliation for him.
hasn't left yet, Chang Yu is also frowning, is it really endless.
It was already dark, the Ming army won a great victory, captured a large number of booty, and the trolley was transported back to the city, war horses, bows and arrows, and grain and grass were the most urgently needed by the Ning Yuan army, but none of them had the bloody head of the Qing army hanging around their waists, which made them more excited.
A person's head is five taels of silver, which the little eunuch promised before the war.
The little eunuch should not be taken prisoner, and he will not be left alive, and those who are injured and not dead or who are chased will eventually be killed on the spot, and the heads will be killed!
The elite cavalry of the Gongzi battalion and Jin Wuwei are almost one hand, some even as many as three or four, and the cavalry of the Ning Yuan army is also comparable, the head is valuable, and no one can get along with the money.
Killing horses, eating meat and drinking soup, countless wounded horses and dead horses on the battlefield will not be wasted, after the war, when the soldiers are rewarded with horse meat, the military camp is boiling, but what they are thinking about is whether the head on their waist can be exchanged for real money! It's still a white bar!
Naturally, it is real money, and the little eunuch never fools people, at least not the soldiers!
The money earned by a soldier with his life must be given, and if he does not give it, he will lose his military heart and trust!
But how can there be any money to give!
Just use the 50,000 taels! The little eunuch in the General Army's Mansion made such a decision.
Wu Sangui frowned, originally the 50,000 taels were used to pay arrears, but before you could send them, you embezzled them, wouldn't it make me lose my trust.
At this time, it is necessary to unite the hearts of the army, 6,000 heads and 30,000 taels of silver, and there are still 20,000 to solve part of the arrears, as for the remaining arrears, the little eunuch smiled: "A great victory, how can there be less silver!" ”
Wu Sangui and the others were stunned, the imperial court didn't even pay for the silver, and they gave you a reward of silver, how many taels of money?
Of course it will be given, the little eunuch smiled and beckoned Li Yan, who had been listening silently, to follow him.
Of course, the court didn't reward the silver, but the little eunuch was able to pick out the money with this big victory, Chongzhen was no matter how poor he was, and he didn't want to give it anymore, but for the sake of this good news, he would give it, and he couldn't help it!
It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and a vanguard of the Qing army only had more than 10,000 yuan to waste him so much, and even fought Wu Sangui nearly 2,000 men and horses to eat, but then there are hundreds of thousands of troops of Dolgon, what can you rely on to resist? The walls of Ningyuan City are still the flesh and blood of the soldiers.
Yes, but they need more support from a fighting spirit, and this fighting spirit is not only willpower, but also a full stomach and a full bag of money.
When he went out of Beijing, he was short of money and food, and the dead-faced Qiu Chongzhen asked for 100,000 taels, and Shanhaiguan kept half of it, and the 50,000 was empty in a blink of an eye.
Or silver!
At this time, with the merits of war, Chongzhen wanted to see the good news the most, opened his mouth to ask for money, and took advantage of the situation!
The lights in Ningyuan City are bright, a great victory is unique in several years, the military heart is shocked, the people's heart is happy, the Drum Tower Square is surrounded by water, more than ten silver cars are lined up, waiting for the soldiers to exchange their heads for silver.
In the attic of the General Soldier's Mansion, Wu Sangui and Tang Tong looked at the drum tower and were speechless for a long time.
"Congratulations to General Wu Soldier, this great victory is rare in recent years, after hearing the great joy of the heavens, General Wu has a bright future!" Tang Tong congratulated Wu Sangui.
Wu Sangui bowed his hand in return, smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "It's just the beauty of plundering, this battle plan comes from the hands of that little overlord, he took the lead and killed countless enemies, he is the first merit, and he will act according to orders."
"I regret not being able to see the demeanor of the little overseer with my own eyes" Tang Tong chuckled and sighed, and said: "General Wu is strategizing, commanding the overall situation, and participating in the battle Ning Yuanjun is the main force, killing the most enemies, and having the most merits, and rewarding meritorious deeds is still the first merit!" ”
Wu Sangui smiled bitterly: "But what the world can remember is not that I, Wu Sangui, commanded Ruoding and strategized, but that the little overseer lost his armor and abandoned his armor with five hundred Manchu eight thousand iron cavalry."
Tang Tong secretly scolded, you are really greedy and insufficient, you want your military merits, you still want fame, it's all your family's, it's shameless, you are afraid that I will rob me of merit and leave me in the city, forget it, the little eunuch's merit deserves his, don't rob it, it's hot.
There were cheers in the city from time to time, especially under the bell tower, the soldiers who received the silver were extremely excited and howled, the eunuch really didn't deceive people, it was really silver, a Qing soldier's first five taels of silver, a lot of money!
"Chief Soldier Tang, do you know why the little overseer didn't leave his mouth alive and didn't take prisoners?" Wu Sangui looked at the lights of the bell tower and asked Tang Tong.
Tang Tong frowned: "I don't understand, but I heard that he was like this in Taiyuan, killing tens of thousands of prisoners, although he blamed the king of Jin, he was still scolded by the government and the opposition, but the soldiers in the army said that he was a real man!" ”
"Hehe, the real man may not be, but the real villain is real."
"What do you mean by what Mr. Wu said?"
Wu Sangui's expression was indifferent: "After killing the prisoners, the soldiers knew that if they fell into the hands of the enemy, they would end up the same, and there were still a few people who dared to surrender at will!" It's a trick! ”
Tang Tong realized that it was no wonder that the little eunuch was so ruthless, in order to make his soldiers have no way out.
"Who do you think he looks like?" Wu Sangui asked suddenly.
"Who?" Tang Tong was confused.
"Who is the little overseer like?" Wu Sangui looked at the direction of the barracks, where it was also in full swing, and the soldiers who were eating meat and drinking soup were boiling with blood.
Tang Tong pondered for a while: "Qi Shaobao, the little governor is strict in governing the army, and the order must be carried out, and in the battle of Taiyuan, more than 100,000 horses are ordered, no one dares to disobey, and those who violate it will be killed, and there are the elite cavalry of the Gongzi battalion and Jin Wuwei under his command, and even those family members, although the number is small, but the military discipline is strict, and the words and deeds are all square."
Wu Sangui nodded and shook his head, "Relying on military discipline can only govern the army, but in a very short period of time, it can inspire and boost morale, so that soldiers can listen to his orders as quickly as possible and use them for him.
"Li Chengliang" Tang Tong blurted out.
The famous generals Li Chengliang and Qi Shaobao of the Ming Dynasty are both good at governing the army, one relies on the military discipline system to lead the troops, and Li Chengliang relies on his personal prestige and charisma, and rewards the meritorious soldiers very much, relying on the promise of glory and wealth to stimulate morale! The little eunuch is especially good at this.
"It can be said that this little overseer is also the head of the two families, if he is a general, you and I can only drink the northwest wind!"
Wu Sangui sighed, and Tang Tong smiled without saying a word.
