Chapter 91: The Battle of Zhenping (Part II)

"Don't be in a hurry to ask."

Seeing Lei Dahu's bewildered expression, Zhu Youhua took a few steps with his hands in his hand and said with a smile: "This king will set up an ambush in the rear to wait for the thieves, as long as the thief army is introduced, you will have made a great contribution." ”

"At that time, you can lead the men and horses of the B battalion to return and fight again, and fight the thief army with the A battalion and the C battalion!"

Lei Dahu understood his intentions at this time, and he was not afraid that he would have no credit to take, so he hugged his fists and said: "I listen to the prince, whatever the prince says, I will do it!" ”

Somehow, after Zhu Youhua made such an arrangement, the remaining officers were all thinking about their division of labor and merit, and even Lei Dahu was only worried that the credit for retreating would be less.

As for whether they can win the battle or not, this is no longer within their consideration, and the king of Nanyang must have his intentions in arranging it like this.

Immediately, Zhu Youhua talked eloquently again.

"Before Lei Dahu led the Yizi battalion to engage the thief army, this king will lead the guards and the imperial court soldiers and horses as the Chinese army, and ambush here in advance."

As he spoke, Zhu Youhua's finger pointed to the map hanging on the wall.

"Isn't this a small bridge through Nirvana?" Huang Hu said.

Zhu Youhua nodded and said: "Before setting up camp here, this king has sent people to explore the vicinity, this Nirvana water is sometimes turbulent and sometimes gentle, and now in May, it is Nirvana water turbulent, and the only way to cross the river is through this bridge." ”

"After the king led the Chinese army to ambush the bridge, Huang Hu, you led people to ambush in the forests on both sides, just waiting for the thief army to chase after it, and then the king led the Chinese army to press forward, and the three roads went hand in hand, and the thieves will be broken."

Zhu Youhua's deployment of the entire battle situation is still only on paper, and it is the first time for everyone to fight in the field.

Since the manager is so confident, there is no need for them to be intimidated.

Another point is that although there are more than 40,000 people on the other side in this battle, most of them are just displaced people without rules, and the main general Tian Jianxiu is not a famous general.

Tian Jianxiu brought people with him, and he didn't expect that there would be officials and soldiers in advance, so he could lead them by the nose.

After discussing it, everyone suddenly realized, and at this time they also guessed Zhu Youhua's good intentions to let Lei Dahu come forward to lure the enemy.

Among the three thousand, the most important one is Liu Yuqi.

Liu Yuqi is Yuan Shizhong's cousin, and Tian Jianxiu has seen his ability in the battle of Luoyang, and even has palpitations.

In the rebellion against Yuan Shizhong, it was Liu Yuqi's work to run back and forth, so there is no need to mention it here.

As for Huang Hu, in the battle of Luoyang, he also led the Luoyang defenders to face to face with Tian Jianxiu's camp forward, and he was obviously not the best candidate.

Lei Dahu, the thousand general manager of the B-word battalion, followed Zhu Youhua for the shortest time, and Tian Jianxiu had never heard of this person at all, so let him fight, perhaps it was Zhu Youhua who considered luring the enemy with a weak army, which made it easier for them to be fooled.

However, some people still felt that it was inappropriate, and a Bai Zong stood up and said: "Lord Wang, after Lei Qian's defeat in the fraud, if the thief army is suspicious and does not chase, or stops and returns after chasing for a while, how should we deal with it?" ”

The rest of the people were all concerned when they heard this, and they were obviously worried about this situation.

Zhu Youhua waved his hand to signal him to go down first, and said confidently: "If this Tian saw Xiu before the Battle of Luoyang, it is difficult to say whether he can chase it." ”

"Since the battle of Luoyang retreated, he has been ostracized everywhere, Li Hongji is narrow-minded, after the revival of Shaanxi, he attacked Kexian County, Zhouzhou, and repeatedly succeeded, and this king expects that he has not used Tian Jianxiu for a long time."

"This time to fight the small Yuan camp, the reason why Li Hongji asked Tian Jianxiu to come is actually the same as this king, but this king is luring the enemy with a weak army, but he is going east with a weak army, and the main force naturally stays to fight with Sun Chuanting."

"Tian Jianxiu was eager to make a meritorious contribution this time, so he landed ashore in advance, and wanted to take a detour to capture the inner countryside in one fell swoop, but he didn't expect to be hit by this king."

"This is also gossip, what mountains and rivers meet, right? Ha ha. ”

Huang Hu snorted coldly.

"That Li Hongji is like a no-man's land in Shaanxi, and he has long forgotten the defeat in Luoyang last year, this thief is arrogant, and he is crowned by a monkey, and in the face of the attack of the superintendent and the governor of Shaanxi, he even divided his troops to Nanyang, which shows that he is arrogant."

Lei Dahu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Don't worry, the prince will be properly arranged overnight at the end of his return to the camp tonight." ”

"On the battlefield tomorrow, if this Tian Jianxiu does not chase or chases for a while and goes back, the last general will come forward again to tease him in the name of Liu Zongmin, and if he is not introduced into Fuzhong, he will never stop."

"Haha, it seems that if this Tian Jianxiu doesn't win this time, he won't have the face to go back to see Li Hongji, right?" At first, Mr. Bai smiled.

Another hundred general manager also said, "Not only that, with Liu Zongmin's violent temperament, he will be scolded with blood!" ”

Zhu Youhua also smiled, and made specific arrangements for the others one by one, this is the first field battle since the establishment of the Nanyang Battalion, although there are many thieves, but this battle must be won.

"Our soldiers and horses are not as good as the thief army, although the training has been more than a year, some of the newly recruited soldiers have not been on the battlefield after all, and now this way of fighting, on the bridge, our number will exceed the thief army, which can not only win, but also strengthen the courage of the recruits."

"In addition, we also have to send a team of men and horses to block the retreat of the thieves, but at present, there is no extra force in Nanyang to adjust, this king has already flown to the inner countryside, I hope Yuan Shizhong can listen to this military order."

"But it doesn't matter if he doesn't go out of the city, it's just a matter of whether he can wipe out the thief army, anyway, we will win this battle."

After listening to Zhu Youhua's comprehensive deployment, all the officers of the Nanyang Battalion were extremely excited, and they all rose up in groups to seek battle, saying that this battle would teach the thieves to know the prestige of our Nanyang Battalion.

At this moment, Zhu Youhua instructed again: "This king didn't expect Tian Jianxiu to attack the inner countryside in such a hurry, so he only sent someone to investigate the terrain of ten miles nearby, and it is not clear ten miles away. ”

"The thieves are cunning and numerous, after Lei Qian always led the thief army to defeat, when the battalions pursued, they must pay attention to the surrounding terrain. Once there is any movement of the thieves and horses, don't fall in love with the battle, and withdraw quickly to prevent being ambushed by the thieves again! ”

After hearing this, all the officers nodded one after another, and they couldn't help but admire this prince's thoughtfulness, and his eyes were even more adoring.

After a brief discussion, Zhu Youhua suddenly got up, and all the officers also stood up.

I only heard Zhu Youhua Zhengse say: "This king's order is followed, and the military discipline will not be changed in wartime!" Meritorious service will be rewarded, mistakes will be punished, and serious crimes will be beheaded! Tomorrow, before the two armies are arrayed, I hope that you will work hard to kill the thieves and raise the prestige of my Nanyang battalion! ”

"We will make the thieves lose their souls!" Everyone's blood boiled and they said in unison.

......

According to Zhu Youhua's orderly order, the top and bottom of the Nanyang battalion all moved, and all the officers also held small meetings after returning to convey the military orders of the king of Nanyang.

Besides, Tian Jianxiu, after landing at the mouth of the West Gorge, led the army all the way east, and found that it was an unexpected barren land, so he had to go to Zhenping first to repair and then go to the inner countryside.

Unexpectedly, I met a military camp here.

Just a simple glance, Tian Jianxiu knew that the officers and soldiers in this battalion were extraordinary, and his subordinates even talked about it, thinking that it was the imperial forbidden army sent by Emperor Chongzhen from Beijing.

It was nearly dusk, when Zhu Youhua held a military meeting in the Nanyang camp, Tian Jianxiu also returned to the camp to hold a brief meeting.

Although he felt that this official army was not ordinary, Tian Jianxiu also knew that his troops far exceeded the official army.

What's more, most of the officers and troops from Beijing are only well equipped, and in terms of troop strength and actual combat experience, their subordinates far exceed the officers and soldiers, and even some homeless people have been fighting for many years.

Considering this, Tian Jianxiu's mood was very relaxed, and the meeting was also discussing how to take down the equipment on these officers and soldiers, which was not as heavy as the atmosphere of military discussions in the Nanyang camp at the same time.
