Chapter 50 Soldiers Suppress Fengyang
It took more than half an hour to say this before everything was made clear. At the end, Zhang Xuan suddenly heard Wang Xincui's name, and said with a bit of gritted teeth: "But Wang Xincui, who also broke the pontoon bridge yesterday?" ”
"Exactly." Zhou Fuchen said.
"He Hutou." Zhang Xuan suddenly shouted.
He Hutou came in from outside and said, "Your Excellency, please command." ”
Zhang Xuan said: "You go and take care of Wang Xincui, and there must be no accidents." ”
"Yes." He Hutou said.
Then He Hutou went down.
I have to say that it is not easy to be Zhang Xuan's personal guard commander, even in the middle of the night, he must be on call.
Zhou Fuchen didn't understand for a while that there was a deep hatred between Wang Xincui and the righteous army, so that Zhang Xuan was like this, in his impression, Zhang Xuan was not the kind of person who was easy to hate others.
Early the next morning.
Amid the rumbling drums, the army assembled under the river embankment, and tens of thousands of soldiers blocked the open space tightly.
And the leader is none other than the soldiers of the Yongcheng battalion.
As soon as they heard that this person was the general who broke the pontoon bridge yesterday, everyone's eyes turned red for a while.
Zhang Xuan didn't talk much nonsense, and with an order, Zhang Guozhu picked up the big axe and slashed it on Wang Xincui's waist. split Wang Xincui's body in half.
"Ah-------h
Zhang Xuan felt a little unbearable in his heart at the moment.
It's just that he can't break his word.
As far as Zhang Xuan himself is concerned, killing people is not enough, and a knife is enough, so there is no need to be so cruel.
It's just that the order he gave was to hand over Wang Xincui to the soldiers of the Yongcheng battalion. However, the soldiers of the Yongcheng battalion hated Wang Xincui very much, and unanimously decided that Wang Xincui could not be killed simply, if it were not for the technical requirements of a thousand knives, it would be too high. What awaits Wang Xincui is a thousand cuts.
In the end, it was Zhang Guozhu who decided to cut it in half, and he did it himself.
Zhang Guozhu showed his might in the battle yesterday, proved his strength, and also voted for Zhang Xuan.
Therefore, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but give an expression, so Zhang Xuan's statement to Zhang Guozhu was the battalion officer of the Yongcheng Battalion.
Even if the Yongcheng battalion is crippled, but in Zhang Xuan's military system, the battalion officer of the first battalion can be regarded as a high-ranking official, which is not much different from Zhang Guozhu's treatment in Liu Zeqing's army, and even transferred some soldiers who performed well in this battle from the personal guards, and stuffed them into the Yongcheng battalion.
It can be regarded as giving Zhang Guozhu some team.
Therefore, although Zhang Xuan felt that it was too much, it was not easy to go back on his word, which not only hit his own prestige, but also hit Zhang Guozhu's prestige.
Even if he feels cruel, he must adapt to the laws of this era.
In the end, Wang Xincui screamed for half an hour before dying.
However, for Zhang Xuan, this is just an episode.
Zhang Xuan's attention was on the military discussion.
"First of all, we have to bring all the baggage on the north shore over." Zhang Su was the first to express his attitude and said: "With the support of these burdens, we will hold on to Fengyang City for a period of time, and it is enough, there is no need to be tight like this." ”
Linhuai, the Huai River was unimpeded and came and went freely, so Zhang Su was the first to overturn Zhang Xuan's previous order to almost break the cauldron and sink the ship.
As soon as Zhang Su said this, all the soldiers nodded one after another.
Zhang Xuan is naturally willing, if he is not satisfied, who is willing to take risks.
However, such a large army would have to stay by the river for a day or two.
After all, Zhang Xuan took a trip to the side of the canal, and the entire canal area was the essence of the northern Ming Dynasty.
This batch of materials, when they were lightly loaded before, threw away a lot, and now there are only three things left, food, iron, and gunpowder.
These are related to the combat effectiveness of the army, even if Zhang Xuan feels a little cumbersome, he never dares to throw them away.
After these two days, Zhang Xuan could not put all the soldiers by the river and did not move, after discussion, Zhang Xuan decided to take Yang Shenzu as the vanguard and go straight to Fengyang Mansion, the central capital.
Of course, Zhang Xuan also knew that Fengyang Mansion was the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang, a madman in infrastructure, didn't know how much manpower and material resources he had used to establish Fengyang Mansion. Therefore, Zhang Xuan also decided that Yang Shenzu's thousands of horse teams could defeat Fengyang Mansion.
However, he just wanted to put pressure on Ma Shiying.
Other new battalions were also attacking.
Between the Huai River and Fengyang Mansion, there are also dozens of miles away, Zhang Xuan is ready to send troops to plow this place, the first is to sweep away the local resistance forces, and the second is to control the place and recruit people.
A fortified city like Fengyang Mansion is by no means a day or two days can be undertaken, and even the siege is sometimes compared to the ability to attack fortifications, and sometimes, it is compared to the ability to build civil fortifications. No matter which one it is, Zhang Xuan will need a lot of manpower and material resources.
It takes a lot of manpower and material resources, and it is necessary to clean up the place and make the local people available to him.
When Yang Shenzu thousands of soldiers rolled up the yellow sand and rushed to the city of Fengyang Mansion, the entire Fengyang Mansion was shaken.
Ma Shiying was on the tall and mighty Fengyang city wall, looking at Yang Shenzu's horse team, his face was pale
Tie Qing was stunned, and said to the left and right: "General Liu has been invited over." ”
After a while, Liu Liangzuo came over, and then bowed to the ground and said, "The last general has seen the superintendent." ”
Ma Shiying said: "Liu Liangzuo, are you guilty? “
Liu Liangzuo said: "The army was overthrown, so that thieves were rampant, and it was really a great crime to peep into the capital, and I asked the superintendent to punish him." ”
After Liu Liangzuo brought this person back, the first thing he did was to go to Ma Shiying to ask for guilt.
Ma Shiying reprimanded Liu Liangzuo fiercely, on this day, Liu Liangzuo's mind has always been very worried, lest he repeat Liu Zeqing's mistakes, he has everything in mind for a while, and even the heart of defection has been carefully considered.
"It's good to know the guilt, but now is the time to employ people. This official will give you a chance to make meritorious contributions, and you will now take down these thieves with your own people. ”
Liu Liangzuo was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "My subordinates obey orders." ”
As soon as these words came out, Liu Liangzuo's hanging heart fell into his stomach. After he saluted Ma Shiying, he immediately went down to the city.
It didn't take long for Liu Liangzuo to rush out of Fengyang City with a team of thousands of horses.
Yang Shenzu was naturally not afraid of Liu Liangzuo, and nearly 10,000 cavalry on both sides were outside Fengyang City, fighting back and forth.
Above the city.
"Father." Ma Luan said: "Aren't you Liu Liangzuo useless? ”
Ma Shiying looked at the cavalry fighting below and said: "Liu Liangzuo is useless, but others can, and this generation of martial artists is lawless, once I am in a hurry, I can't say what kind of things I will do, I can still slow down, just slow down." ”
Ma Shiying just got the news of Liu Liangzuo's defeat yesterday, at that time in the north of Fengyang City, Ma Shiying almost transferred the troops in Fengyang City, gathered 40,000 troops, and wanted to support Liu Liangzuo, but he didn't want the army to come back with the defeated troops as soon as he left Fengyang.
Morale has been frustrated, and Ma Shiying had no choice but to retreat back to Fengyang.
At that time, Ma Shiying really had the heart to kill Liu Liangzuo.
However, he soon learned that he couldn't kill Liu Liangzuo.
In this situation at the end of the Ming Dynasty, almost all obedient generals were mostly unable to fight, and all generals who dared to be unruly were probably able to fight. If you dare to be disobedient and make small calculations, you all have your own confidence. He counted the generals in the city, and there were quite a few of them, but he really couldn't find a few generals who were more powerful than Liu Liangzuo.
With this alone, it is impossible to kill the generals in front of the battle.
"Can't General Huang be transferred back?" Ma Luan said: "Now that the matter is now, Fengyang should be the most important, why not let General Huang give up Shouzhou and return to Fengyang?" ”
Huang Degong's brave guard is reliable, which Ma Luan and Ma Shiying agree on.
"Where is it so easy?" Ma Shiying said with a soft sigh.
