Chapter Ninety-Five: Plans Change

Chapter 95 Plans have changed

Although the morale of the 5,000 men was high, they were outnumbered, and as more and more rebels pounced, Ludenda gradually felt that he could not support it. Bayi Chinese ??.

"My lord, quickly retreat, or the road will be cut off." The generals who followed Ludenda had been keeping a close eye on the enemy's situation, and when they saw the rebels marching on both sides in the dusk, they couldn't be in a hurry.

Lu Dengda naturally saw it, and walked away towards most of the men, and immediately ordered: "Pass the order, the army will fight and retreat, and lead the rebels to the city of Shaozhou and then make plans!" ”

"Hehe, the Guangdong soldiers and horses finally can't stand it, and immediately send the order of the lonely general, and the rest of the men and horses will attack immediately, and they must not be allowed to escape!" Zhu Yiluan looked up to the sky and laughed, and he was determined to kill him without leaving a piece of armor.

Cheng Jingye hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, "Little prince must not be like this, it is already dark, and you must be prepared for the ambush of Guangdong soldiers and horses." Moreover, the soldiers have been fighting for a day, and they are already exhausted, and it will have no effect if they continue to fight. ”

Zhu Yiluan buried his head and thought about it. Now is the time to buy people's hearts, don't be kind to these poor soldiers, I'm afraid that I won't follow me to fight the world.

"Okay, let them go for the time being, Ming Jin will collect the army and bury the pot to cook. Second brother Cheng, in addition, arrange for someone to send a letter to the generals of Guangdong soldiers and horses, today's battle is enough to prove that Lone's army this time is in accordance with the will of God to save my Ming people in the water and fire, I hope they will follow the general trend to surrender as soon as possible, Lone will be reused! Zhu Yiluan thought of which wine banquet to come out of. Just now, I saw that the Guangdong soldiers and horses still have some combat effectiveness, and if they are taken under their command, they will save training. You must know that now is the time to employ people, and if you accept them, you can solve your big trouble.

"Little prince, Gao Jian, my subordinates will do it." He used to smile too, which was also what he thought in his heart.

"My lord, urgent military situation!" A scout galloped in, his face full of anxiety. Seeing him like this, Chen Qingping, who was already anxious, couldn't help but look bitter, it seemed that what he was worried about was still born.

"Lord Qiqi, the line of Shaoshi Mountain and Guishan has been broken by the rebels, and now General Lu has retreated to Shaozhou City with the army." The scout said breathlessly, before leaving, Lord Chen told the brothers to investigate the situation clearly, which shows that this matter is very important.

Chen Qingping scratched his head for a while, stomped his feet and said, "Order the army to stop advancing, and wait for this official to report to Lord Shen before making plans." ”

"What, the line of Shaoshi Mountain and Guishan fell into the hands of the rebels?!" Shen Chongming's chest fluctuated, a group of rice buckets, and lost his position in less than a day, what do you want these wine bags and rice bags to do!

"Yes, my lord, what can I do about this?" Chen Qingping was so anxious that he lost Shaoshi Mountain, and Lord Shen's plan to annihilate the rebels was put on hold.

You must know that for this plan, the army has abandoned Yizhang and Lechang, and now Shaozhou City is also in danger. The so-called responsibility of defending the territory, losing three cities in a row, and it is absolutely impossible to escape the involvement of his own commander!

Shen Chongming took a few breaths and asked, "Come on, where is the rebel army now, and what are the casualties of Lu Dengda?" ”

"If you go back to your lordship, it's too dark for the scout to see clearly, and no one knows what has become." Things have come to such a point, Chen Qingping can only tell the truth, otherwise Shen Chongming will make another mistake in decision-making, and the situation will be even more difficult to recover.

Shen Chongming frowned and pondered for a while, and ordered: "The army stops advancing, you immediately send people and horses to Shaozhou City to check the situation, if Lu Dengda loses Shaozhou, this official will kill him!" ”

"Yes, the next official will do it." Chen Qingping hurriedly responded, turned around and arranged.

Shen Chongming, who stayed in place, also got off the horse, looking at the starry sky while thinking about how things could have become like this. It is said that his plan can be described as seamless, but the bad thing is that he trusts Lu Dengda and the Guangdong soldiers and horses too much, but he didn't expect them to be so cowardly, the 30,000 army guarding the two mountains can't hold out even for a day, and the imperial court spends a lot of money to raise a bunch of waste!

But these are all trivial things, and what worries him the most is that this plan will fall through, what to do next, you must know that he didn't expect such an ending at all, and naturally there is no way to deal with it in his heart.

If the rebel army drives straight into the country because of the failure of this plan, the war situation in the whole of Guangdong will inevitably become stalemate, and then it will be protracted, and the entire counterinsurgency plan will have to be adjusted accordingly, and the losses caused by this will be immeasurable!

Besides, Lu Dengda, who returned to Shaozhou City miserably, the first thing he did was to send people to look for the 30,000 troops who had disappeared. You must know that at present, the morale of this person is extremely low, although the walls of Shaozhou City are tall, and he may not be able to keep his heart.

More than 100 people were sent to look around for traces of the army, and Lu Dengda had the heart to count the casualties. I don't know if I don't check, this inventory made him feel like ashes, 30,000 horses lost nearly 10,000, and the remaining 20,000 troops were also discouraged.

This situation is really a hatred for Lu Dengda, what should I do? I was worried in my heart, and the anger in my chest couldn't help but rise, damn Shen Chongming, how did he arrange this war, let himself stick to the line of Shaoshi Mountain and Guishan, but he was gone!

To say that Shen Chongming is also used to it, he usually leads troops to fight outside, and his intentions have always been told to Brother Erdan, and the rest of the generals only need to follow their own orders to carry it out, and there is no communication at all.

This time there was such a thing, it was caused by his habits. Unexpectedly, Lu Dengda did not know his detailed plan, and he had no bottom in his heart, and retreated at the slightest setback.

I was worried, but the current situation Lu Dengda still had to deal with. After all, after eating the food and salary of the imperial court, even if the official is gone, he has to defend the land and protect his family. Although I also knew in my heart that I couldn't stand it at all, but when it came to this, there was no way back, so I could only grit my teeth and stiffen up!

The situation in Guangdong has become confusing, but Brother Erdan, who has been the commander of the Western Route Army, has been smooth sailing this time. Relying on Shen Chongming's name, the generals of Guizhou obeyed him, almost pointing to where to fight, and there was no second word.

Seeing that he could command these tens of thousands of horses, Brother Erdan gradually gained confidence, and he put a swing in front of the terrain map on weekdays, and sat there with a solemn expression, which was also quite fantastic.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please see, the march route of the 50,000 rebels we have been tracking has been along the northeast direction, and now they have passed the Changsha boundary, according to the information we have, it can be concluded that the purpose of their trip is to go to fight with the Ying Tianfu men and horses commanded by Lord Yu Jiao. What do you think, how should we fight this battle? Brother Erdan sat behind the table and asked.

"Master Ma, in the opinion of the last general, we should immediately catch up and do our best to hold this rebel army back. As long as Lord Yu destroys the rebels he is currently fighting, then he will move his troops south to merge with our department, and annihilate these 50,000 rebels. One of the generals stood up and hugged his fists.

"Well, what you said is not a good idea, but we are in enemy territory, what if the rebels around us attack?" Brother Erdan pointed to the crux of the problem, and now it can be said that he is fighting alone, once he is one step behind, it is a big problem related to the lives of the soldiers of the whole army.

The generals looked at each other, but they also saw that Brother Erdan had his own ideas in his heart. "Please also ask Master Ma for guidance, how should we fight this battle."

Finally hearing this, Brother Erdan and Sikong Wang, who was sitting on the side, looked at each other and smiled, coughed lightly, cleared his throat and said: "The meaning of this official is simple, that is, we will no longer pay attention to this rebel army, let's go directly to Changsha City, and capture the rebels' nest first!" ”

"This ...... My lord, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to do this. You must know that Changsha City is where King Ji's Mansion is located, and the traitor Zhu Yiluan will naturally set up heavy troops there to defend it, and if he wants to capture Changsha City, I am afraid that there is no such possibility. One of the generals shook his head and said.

"Yes, my lord, once we can't capture Changsha City, and these 50,000 rebels come back in time, it will be difficult for us to get out at that time." The other general also shook his head again and again, this method is not advisable at all.

Seeing that the generals refuted their strategies, Brother Erdan was not angry, but smiled and said: "Generals, don't make conclusions lightly, and listen to this official to explain the current situation in detail for you." ”

"You don't know, according to the official's information, a few days ago Zhu Yiluan gathered 50,000 troops in Changsha and went straight to Guangdong, and now the rebel forces near Changsha are extremely weak, according to the official's estimate, there are only 20,000 horses at most, and most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

The generals were in an uproar, they never expected Zhu Yiluan to be such a waste material, don't you know the impact of the loss of the old nest on morale?

"And now, in addition to these 50,000 rebels who have been training in the mountains for a long time, there are also rebels from several northern provinces who have gathered to the south to supplement this vacancy. It's a pity that Zhu Yiluan is too impatient and left such an opportunity for us, if we let it go in vain, wouldn't it be a good idea to live up to his good intentions? Brother Erdan's face was full of treacherous smiles, and the face of the profiteer was exposed.

The generals also nodded, so there is some truth in that.

"But my lord, since the rebels from the northern provinces have gathered and will arrive in Changsha City in a few days, won't we kill ourselves by attacking Changsha City? Even the 50,000 rebels at the moment, I am afraid that the number of rebels will not be less than 100,000, and they will be surrounded by them at that time, and it will be impossible to break through. "The generals are not bad, and it doesn't take long for someone to show the fatal flaw of this plan, and this thing is like digging a self-grave at all.

Brother Erdan laughed and said to Sikong Wang, "Mr. Sikong, tell them about our plan." ”

At this time, I looked at Sikong Wang, but now this guy has changed into a deep coat, holding a folding fan in his hand, and looks like a scholar.

Everyone looked at the division of the air force, in the past, this guy ate and lived with Master Ma, which was really related.

Sikong Wang pretended to shake the folding fan in his hand mysteriously, and laughed softly: "My lords, although once we take Changsha City, we will be surrounded by rebels, but with the grain and grass hoarded in the city, plus my brave and good 50,000 soldiers, it is not a problem to hold Changsha for three months." At this time, with the mobilization of the rebels, the imperial army on all sides could also drive straight into Changsha, so that the situation was reversed into the rebels being surrounded, but it only took one battle to annihilate all the rebels under the city. And we have succeeded in luring the enemy, Your Majesty, Lord Shen will be rewarded heavily! ”

Sikongwang's words were like an initiation, which immediately made the generals present suddenly open, reasonable, reasonable!
