Chapter 20: Ambush

"Yuan Jixian's speed is not slow, he has already chased after him." Zhang Xianzhong said: "It seems that we have to speed up the march. He said, holding the token in his hand. This token is the piece that Luo Yujiao handed over.

Luo Rucai said: "Gritting his teeth and entering the mountain, Yuan Jixian can't do anything." ”

I have to say that among the mountains near Yunyang, it is the place where the displaced people gather, and in the eyes of the righteous army, it is familiar land. The rebellion of the displaced people in Yunyang occurred in the Chenghua years, so Yunyang, a small place that does not rely on all sides, must have a governor in charge. You can see how powerful it is.

When Zhang Xianzhong was in the second year of Chongzhen, he briefly entered Sichuan, leaving two generals, namely Huang Long and Yao Tiandong. The two of them converged with the displaced people at the junction of Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Henan, and controlled the mountainous land at the junction of the three provinces. It even spread to northern Sichuan, known as the thirteen families of Yao and Huang.

This is a feng shui treasure place for Zhang Xianzhong to hide from the official army. The people here are all oriented to the righteous army. Zhang Xianzhong is here as Shangluo Mountain is to Li Zicheng, no matter what Zhang Xianzhong looks like, as long as he hides here, he can recover his vitality.

As long as Zhang Xianzhong is in the mountains, even if Yang Sichang takes Zhang Xianzhong, there is no way, the only drawback is that there is not enough food in the mountains and cannot support a large number of people.

Zhang Xianzhong's heart is like an arrow, since Zhang Xianzhong entered the Sichuan campaign, in just half a year, more than 6,000 miles, four or five major battles, and countless small battles. Zhang Xianzhong himself hasn't slept a peaceful sleep for a long time. At this moment, he is unwilling to entangle with Yuan Jixian.

Zhang Xianzhong's army gave an order, and the speed of the march increased sharply.

The whole army, like a clockwork alarm clock, began to spin rapidly.

Cao Zongyu's injuries were almost healed, and he had the ability to move freely, so the news from all directions passed through Cao Zongyu's ears and spread to Zhang Xuan's ears.

First of all, the horses of the palace were severely reprimanded and beaten, and if it wasn't for the time when they were employed, several people would have been beheaded.

Only then did Zhang Xuan know that Zhang Xianzhong's military regulations were extremely strict, not to mention anything else, just as far as the horse exploration was concerned, one mile and one dial, until two hundred miles away. Knows from far and near. When Zhang Xuan thought that they were walking at the end, it was actually wrong, they were not the last, but the horse was the last.

However, due to the complex terrain in northern Sichuan, I don't know where the official army's exploration horses came out. Harassed the old camp.

The rebels have also been converted into battle formation.

When marching, the elite was in the front and rear, the scouts were in the four, the old and weak were in the middle, and Zhang Xuan's department was also divided into the old and weak. Each battalion has a fixed stop, where to go, where to stop, and take turns to be the vanguard.

In fact, this kind of regulation was originally the rule of the Ming army, and during the Korean War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the Ming army was put in the rear of Japan without collecting it at night. But now there are quite few Ming troops who can do this, but the rebel side maintains this mode of battle.

Zhang Xuan only felt that his legs were not his own.

Even on horseback, I can't hold on anymore.

Some people may think that marching on horseback is not hard, but in fact, it is an illusion. When the horse is advancing, the whole body is also up and down, swaying from side to side, this kind of swing may not be large, but if you sit on it for a day, you feel how unbearable.

After a day in the car, some people still have numbness in their hands and feet and can't stand it. Not to mention horseback riding.

Zhang Xuan really can't endure hardships compared to people in this era.

Marching day by day, Zhang Xuan didn't know how many days he had been walking. Halfway through the day, he was suddenly ordered to stop.

After a col, stopped.

Zhang Xuan didn't know who to ask, but suddenly saw Luo Yujiao coming over, stepped forward and asked, "Little lady Luo, but I don't know what happened, let's stop?" ”

Luo Yujiao said: "Yuan Jixian is chasing after him in a hurry, just behind. My father and Uncle Zhang were going to fight, and I persuaded my father to let the wounded battalion stay, and after a while, when the fight started, the wounded would be transported down. ”

Zhang Xuan's face changed slightly when he heard this.

Zhang Xuan was apprehensive about the war, but then he calmed down, and secretly said in his heart: "Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai are both first-class people, and they will not die here, which means that this battle must be won." It's not a big deal. ”

Luo Yujiao said: "How is it, do you want to go and see?" Luo Yujiao didn't wait for Zhang Xuan to speak, so she led Zhang Xuan to a mountain next to her, and after a while, she climbed to the top of the mountain, on the top of the mountain, looked down, but saw a mountain road.

There is very little flat land in this area, and it is all a valley with a valley.

Looking down from Zhang Xuan's angle, you can see countless soldiers, hidden on both sides, horses kneeling on the ground, soldiers lying beside horses, and all flags down. And in the distance, smoke and dust came from afar.

Zhang Xuan couldn't see it really, and wanted to stand on the mountain rock to look, but was pulled down by Luo Yujiao, pressed on the ground, and said: "It must not be discovered, otherwise it will lead to the failure of the army, and it will make my father march the law." ”

Luo Yujiao's eyes flashed with excitement, as if she had seen her beloved doll.

Zhang Xuan only felt that his body was pressed against the rocks, and he was in pain, but he was also attracted by the battle in front of him. That man doesn't like the feeling of being on the battlefield.

Zhang Xuan held his breath and looked down, but when he saw that the officers and soldiers were coming, it was not unprepared, a scout crossed the intersection, and he was killed by a famous soldier without making a sound.

Either an arrow from a distance hit the throat and could not even be heard, or it suddenly jumped from the horse to the horse's back, covered its mouth from behind, and ended it with a knife. Then the soldiers of the rebel army ran out again, changed into the clothes of the officers and soldiers, and waved the flag of nothing at the intersection.

Let the officers and soldiers rest assured and move forward boldly.

After Zhang Xuan saw clearly the officers and soldiers who came, the first was the cavalry, about more than 100 horsemen, and the leader was a general, only to see a big banner with the word "Zhang", Zhang Xuan couldn't remember which general for a while.

Luo Yujiao said with some excitement: "This ambush was prepared by Uncle Zhang and Daddy together. On the left is Wang Long's brother's department, and on the right is Uncle Zhang's righteous son, Wenxiu's brother's department. Luo Yujiao pointed out to Zhang Xuan as she spoke: "Look, under the big tree over there is Brother Wang Long." ”

Zhang Xuan's eyes were not as good as Luo Yujiao's, and after looking at it for a long time, he didn't find out where the so-called "Wang Long" brother was. At this time, he deeply missed the telescope.

"Oh no, things have changed." Luo Yujiao's voice changed, and she was a little dignified. But when he saw the officers and generals who were walking in the front, he suddenly stopped and immediately beat his horse and walked back. But how could Liu Wenxiu and Wang Long allow them to go back.

"Kill." The sound of shouting and killing was deafening.

Zhang Xuan can be regarded as seeing who Wang Lung is. But I saw that among the ambush troops on the left, there was a man who jumped up from his horse, took the lead, and suddenly rushed into the official army. The soldiers behind him followed closely, and Liu Wenxiu was not slow at all, and the two sides cut off the officers and soldiers almost instantly.

The space on the battlefield is limited, so there are not too many ambushes on both sides, but it is only hundreds of horses, adding up to only a thousand horses, the general surnamed Zhang of the official army, in the first round, was beheaded under the horse, due to the chaos of the battlefield, Zhang Xuan did not see clearly, whose hands this person died in.

The two sides rushed to the rout, like a sheep, and killed the rear of the official army.

Zhang Xuan was on the top of the mountain, and he couldn't see any farther, and his view was blocked by the mountains.

"Alright." Luo Yujiao said: "Go back quickly, wait a while, and the wounded will be transported down." ”

Zhang Xuan also saw that there were already people cleaning up the battlefield on the battlefield. said, "Okay." ”

The speed was very fast, and when Zhang Xuan came down, the first batch of wounded people were about to be transported over, and Zhang Xuan also found that many people he didn't know had also arrived here, so Zhang Xuan knew that whenever there was a war, the Langzhong of each battalion would be used together. However, the wounded are not accommodated in the same way.

Zhang Xuan's wounded battalion is actually not new, and the old battalion has taken on this responsibility. The wounded were generally scattered in the old camps.

However, due to the existence of Luo Yujiao, these Langzhong are temporarily managed by Zhang Xuan.
