"What are you talking about, there is no news from one of your hundred-man teams so far?"

Cao Yingmao glared at a thousand generals under him, with sharp eyes.

"Back to the general's words, it's true, that hundred-man team is our vanguard, responsible for exploring the way to collect news, the last news they came from two hours ago was to rush to Anqing Mansion through Wangjiang County, according to the rules, they should contact the lowly post once every hour, but now there has been no news for two hours, and the lowly post estimates that they have been attacked!"

"Where were they attacked, and where are they now? Have you figured it out? Cao Yingmao's question popped up like a cannon, and the question was sweaty, so he could only stammer: "General, humble duty...... Humble ...... Now they are still sending people to look for them, but they have encountered the stubborn interception of the rogues more than 20 miles ahead, and now the lowly people are still entangled with the rogues. ”

Cao Yingmao's sharp eyes stared at him like a knife, and said word by word: "I'll give you another hour, if you still can't break through the blockade of the Liukou, and you can't find that team, you can explain it to Grandpa Guo yourself, understand?" ”

Since Yang Feng led the Jiangning army from Jinling, the road can be described as smooth sailing, and the battle of Mengjin was even more annihilated by the 200,000 thieves led by Gao Yingxiang, and his own losses were only a few hundred people, but if he lost an organized hundred-man team because of his own mistake today, he would be famous as the commander of the cavalry battalion.

Since ancient times, there will definitely be casualties in wars, not to mention hundreds of dead and wounded, even if it is not uncommon to lose thousands, but the most taboo for the army is that a unit is eliminated in formation, because this means that the traces of this army will be completely erased, even if it is rebuilt in the future, this team will change its taste.

Thinking of Yang Feng's angry gaze once this hundred-person team was eaten by the Liukou Cheng Formation, Cao Yingmao shuddered in his heart, he must not let this happen.

He stared at this Qian Zong with a serious gaze, "You send everyone out immediately, you must find them, it's too late,"

"The lowly understands it, and the lowly will immediately lead everyone out to find them!"

Mr. Qian knew very well what Cao Yingmao's words meant, so he agreed, turned around and got on the horse and led the way forward.

Looking at the figure of this Qian general hurriedly beating his horse away, Cao Yingmao pondered for a while, turned his head and instructed the herald: "Immediately report the situation here to the grandfather of the country, and report to him, just say that Cao Yingmao will lead the men and horses of the third cavalry battalion to march towards Anqing Mansion with all his might, and ask the grandfather of the country to lead the army of the headquarters to come later." ”

…………

"And then?"

Yang Feng looked at the information that had just arrived, pondered for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

When the official position reached Yang Feng's position, the matter of a cavalry of 100 people could no longer arouse his mind, but the signal from here made him feel a trace of unusual meaning.

"Is this a demonstration against me?"

Turning his head to look at the troops behind him who were marching in a neat line, Yang Feng muttered softly: "But I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." ”

In the distance of the nameless hillside, Li Zicheng, Li Yan and other leaders watched Liu Zongmin under the hillside command the Liukou to launch wave after wave of attacks, but they were all beaten down by the Jiang Ning army on the hillside, and their faces were ugly.

Such a situation was something that none of them expected,

Li Yan's gaze was a little dull, and the voice that only he could hear said in a low voice: "Is this the true strength of the first strong army of the Ming Dynasty?" ”

In Li Yan's impression, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army is actually about the same, even though the Jiangning army is famous, but in his opinion, it is nothing more than better equipment and higher morale, and he will still die if he cuts it down.

Especially in the past few months, under Li Zicheng's decentralization, he began to reorganize the originally scattered sand rogues, and after the initial formation of the prototype of an army, his heart has become more and more high, and the desires that were originally buried in the depths of his heart have gradually become clear.

That is to overthrow the Ming Dynasty and establish a new country, and he will become a famous figure like Liu Bowen and Xu Da.

In order to achieve this goal, he has worked tirelessly to give advice to Li Zicheng these days, not only making a large number of songs and sending people to sing them all over the country, spending a lot of experience training the army, but also promulgating dozens of military regulations, strictly ordering all departments to abide by them.

Of course, we don't know how much effect it will have, but at least the shelves have been erected, and the rest is the water grinding.

In Li Yan's opinion, even if the righteous army that has been reorganized by him is not as elite as the Ming army, it is at least no worse than the ordinary Ming army, and the results of attacking the city and plundering land all the way in Anqing Mansion in the past few months also tell him that the Ming army in Jiangnan is rotten, and he only needs to push it lightly to eat this piece of the fattest meat of the Ming Dynasty into his mouth.

Later, the Jiang Ning army was dispatched, and he was not surprised by the news.

For this reason, he also made a trap with Li Zicheng, planning to eat a part of the Jiangning army, it would be best to have one or two thousand people, if not, a few hundred people would not be bad, for which he also sent several small troops to act as bait.

It's a pity that in the end, the large army of the Jiangning Army did not attract, only a small cavalry came, for this cavalry team of only about 100 people, Li Yan was still very disappointed at the beginning, after all, it took so much energy and laid such a big trap, but only a small one came, no wonder he was disappointed.

However, in line with the mentality that mosquitoes are small, they are also meat, he also has a tacit attitude towards Liu Zongmin and Li Laiheng's actions.

But the next battle scared him out of a cold sweat, first Li Laiheng's first round of attacks returned, and then Liu Zongmin failed to attack several times, but lost hundreds of people, and then he immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.

The Jiangning army in front of them is just a team of cavalry, and fools know that the cavalry is best at charging and assaulting, and defense is not their strong point at all, and they only have more than 100 people, it is such a team that beats Li Laiheng and Liu Zongmin, the two fierce generals under Li Zicheng, into a temperless position, what if they are the foot soldiers of the Jiangning army? What if the Jiangning army on the hillside was not only about 100 people, but 1,000 people and 10,000 people?

Li Yan suddenly shuddered, perhaps it was not so easy to look at the target in his heart.
