Chapter 129: The Defeated Army

Gao Fangping put on his official uniform for the first time and walked into the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although it was late at night, it had already ascended to the hall, and dozens of poor people stood on both sides, both of which were struck on the ground with a killing power, even if Gao Fangping was bold, he was frightened.

"Xiaguan Gao Fangping, see Fuzun." Gao Fangping hugged his fists.

Uncle Zhang's face was blue, he didn't say a word of nonsense, and said directly: "What the hell are you and Cai Jing doing, this mansion doesn't want to ask." But now that Chenliu County is in an emergency under Kaifeng, the old man asks you, do you dare to go into battle? ”

Gao Fangping hugged his fists and said: "As long as the Fuzun dares to issue a letter of appointment, and is not afraid of Zhang Shumi's rebuke, the lower officials will dare to go out." ”

Zhang Shuye scolded angrily: "What kind of cowardice is Zhang Kangguo, he dares to criticize the old man." Under the rule of Kaifeng, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the thieves besieged the county town in a frenzy, and the soldiers were fast, and when the bureaucrats passed the buck and discussed with each other, the thieves had already killed all the people of Chenliu County. The old man knows Kaifeng Mansion on behalf of Tianquan, stays in Tokyo, and exterminates under the rule, who dares to gnaw anger? ”

"Fu Zun is wise, give the order." Gao Fangping said with a smile.

Uncle Zhang is bold and responsible, and he really didn't cover it. If you change someone, you will wait to kick the ball, even if he has the right to send troops, he will not give an order, he will wait for the dawn, and hand the ball to the Privy Council, and finally the Privy Council will pass the buck to the official. Anyway, no matter what you do, success or failure is commanded by the officials, and the officials are behind the black pot. So even if the people die, it's all good for you, good for me, and good for everyone. The only bad ones are the common people and the official family.

In peacetime, Zhang Shuye did not have the right to transfer the Fourth Army, but because of the recent pressure on public security, and the envoys of Western Xia and Liao in Tokyo, Zhang Shuye had already obtained the command of the eighth formation of the Japanese army earlier, and participated in maintaining order in Kaifeng Mansion. Therefore, as long as Zhang Shuye dares to act, he really doesn't have to dump anyone, and he can send Xu Ning's troops to operate on Gyeonggi Road.

Of course, Uncle Zhang was not confused at night, and if he sent Xu Ning directly, he would not be able to work, and it was a process of passing the buck to each other and playing Tai Chi, so he had to summon Pork Ping.

I watched Uncle Zhang write the letter of appointment with my own eyes, and after signing the seal of Kaifeng Mansion, I took it over and confirmed it and put it in my arms.

"The eighth formation of the Japanese army, Xu Ning's department, was sent to Chenliu to quell the rebellion, because the military was urgent and no one used it late at night, so Gu temporarily appointed Xuanfeng Lang Gao Fangping and Yun Cavalry Captain Liang Hongyu as the supervisors of the army and went to quell the chaos. Go ahead. Uncle Zhang was quite kind and gave Gao Fangping a reason to accompany him.

Gao Fangping can go without giving a reason, but if he wins, Gao Fangping will not be able to receive credit. If you lose, it is easy to carry the black pot with Gao Fangping in the presence. Because Gao Fangping is a civilian official, at least he will not be arrested and slaughtered, but if there is no civilian supervisor and military companion, and something happens, Xu Ning will be finished. Lao Zhang is leaving some useful talents for the forbidden army, and he doesn't want Xu Ning to have an accident.

"The Mansion is waiting for the good news of the lower officials!"

Gao Fangping hurriedly left Kaifeng Mansion after giving his hand.

When I went to the station, the well-trained Eighth Formation of the Japanese Army was already ready to go, and the entire school was lit with torches. There were 2,500 men and 4,000 horses ready to be relied upon.

Xu Ning, Shi Wengong, Yang Zhi, Lin Chong, Guan Sheng and other generals dismounted, knelt on one leg to see Gao Fangping and Liang Hongyu, the supervisors of the army.

Little Lori is a cloud cavalry captain of the Great Official's family, and now she is also appointed by Zhang Shuye as an overseer to participate in carrying the black cauldron, and now Liang Hongying is holding her and riding a horse.

After putting on his armor and getting on the horse under the service of his entourage, Gao Fangping said: "Xiaoyu comes to my arms, don't affect your sister, she is not a nanny but a bodyguard, and your dad is me." ”

Next, Gao Fangping took the little Lori in his arms and began to review and select the army.

can't all be taken out, in this case, the fewer troops are dispatched, the less pressure Gao Fangping and Zhang Shuye will have. Yes, even if Uncle Zhang has this right, if you casually use too many troops at the feet of the Son of Heaven without approval, it is both a merit and a fault. It is a merit in the military and in the people's livelihood. But politically, it is a mistake that can be big or small.

Secondly, if Gao Fangping wants to teach these anti-thieves to be human beings, then he must pretend to be pigs and eat tigers. There is no military merit in this, Da Song's credit calculation is very scientific, and it is calculated according to the head. Therefore, it is necessary to keep a low profile, so that the arrogant and arrogant thieves have the intention of fighting to the death, and the number of people in the battle must grasp a balance point.

This is the wisdom of the battlefield, you need brains to fight a war, otherwise wait for dawn, wait for the bureaucrats to discuss a result in the court, praise the Japanese army, the Tianwu Army, the Shenwei Army, the Dragon Guard, and the 300,000 army will of course win the battle, but it is not to suppress the thieves, but to scare away the thieves and harm again, by the way, the place where the army passes is like locusts to loot the people, and this black pot is also borne by the officials.

In the end, Yang Zhi's Xiaoqi Battalion and Liang Hongyu's Tiger Head Battalion were selected.

"Out of battle!"

Gao Fangping waved his hand, and a thousand people and two thousand war horses drove towards the city gate at night.

Yang Zhinai is the general, and his cavalry battalion has the strongest skills in controlling war horses. As for Liang Hongyu's tiger head battalion, the skeleton of the team is a fierce soldier who followed Gao Fangping in the Mengzhou prison camp to quell the chaos, and the quality is not as good as others, but the courage is extraordinary, and it is the only team in this army that has participated in bloody battles and gnawed hard bones.

Therefore, if you want to fight a wave of battles, you must have a fierce soldier like the Tiger Head Battalion, which can be used to fight the first battle, which can stimulate all the morale......

One man and two horsemen went into battle lightly, except for weapons and ordnance, only half a meal of rations were brought, and they marched towards Chen Liuliu non-stop.

Chenliu is not far from Tokyo, less than two hundred miles away, under the attack of a lightly armed lineup of one person and two riders, it is not far at noon, and it has come to the area less than twenty miles outside Chenliu County.

At this point, Gao Fangping stopped his horse and said: "Eat dry food, drink water, feed the horses, rest the horses for a quarter of an hour, and then follow the official to kill the thief." ”

After a long journey without food, I was already hungry, but unfortunately, according to the rules of the Eighth Army, whether before training or before battle, I could eat a third of it, including horses. Because people and animals are the same, they are weak when they are full, and once they are hungry, they will have a ferocious nature, and when they are hungry, they will rebel, which is the reason for their ferocity.

So all the guys, including the horses, devoured only a third of their rations, and then took a big breath of fresh air to relax.

"Array!"

When Xu Ning found out that there was a situation ahead, he issued a warning order.

Looking down, I saw a team of unruly scattered people from a distance, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have lost their armor and abandoned their armor, but they are actually wearing the costumes of the Song army.

"Intercept! Whoever dares to rush into battle will be killed! ”

Gao Fangping didn't know what the situation was, so he gave a very obscene order, otherwise if there were thieves mixed in it, wouldn't it be planted to fish in troubled waters with the help of chaos?

"Raise the flag."

Xu Ning gave an order, so the army under his command launched a goose-shaped array to intercept, and raised the banner of "The Forbidden Army Holds the Eighth General Xu".

The scattered soldiers fleeing for their lives in front saw that there was a forbidden army coming to the rescue in front of them, although they still looked like they were fleeing for their lives, they cheered, crying and laughing, like a child who had been beaten and cried when he saw his father, and ran even harder, as if he wanted to be comforted in the arms of the elders.

Xu Ning waved his hand, and the three horsemen and horses in the military formation rushed out and shouted: "The men and horses in front of them will stop at fifty paces, and the commander will report the number, and accept the proofreading of the senior master of the prison army, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!" ”

But there were no military regulations in the concept of those van troops, and they were also frightened, regardless of the order, more than a thousand people continued to run in such a scattered manner without any rules.

In this way, the soldier who was so frightened that he ran back.

Xu Ning was also dizzy for a while, feeling afraid that something was going to happen, and these damn guys didn't know who was a fool?

Seeing that they crossed fifty steps without obeying the order, Gao Fangping waved his hand and said, "Kill!" ”

Whoosh whoosh -

Suddenly, the bolts shot out like rain.

A wave of streams.

The first to break through fifty paces of more than 20 Song troops were shot like hedgehogs and fell.

The rest of the Song army was directly frightened, did not dare to rush again, and retreated. They really didn't expect that their own brother would be more ruthless than bandits and bandits, what is the matter?

Seeing that the tiger had stopped them, Gao Fangping ordered again: "Fence it up." ”

So the army array changed to a circular formation, surrounded it, and slowly shrunk, and finally trapped these scattered box troops in the middle.

"Put down your weapons and sit on the ground, without the approval of your own official, those who dare to get up without permission are listed as rebels, and they will be punished on the spot!" Gao Fangping shouted again.

Then those guys didn't dare to hesitate, hurriedly put down their weapons, sat on the ground like prisoners, and began to beg for mercy, just like Gao Fangping was a bandit.

"Where is the commander, come forward and report the military number and explain the situation." Gao Fangping said again.

After that, a young man who was only willing to make a promise came out of the crowd, dressed in the clothes of an ordinary soldier, and when he walked twenty steps, he stopped and knelt down and said: "The last general and the soldiers and horses are all in charge of Huangshi Port, see the master of the prison army." ”

"I'll give you ten breaths, and briefly explain the situation in Chenliu County." Gao Fangping Road.

Huangshigang knelt on the ground like walking on thin ice and said: "Your Excellency, the thieves are fierce and powerful, and Chen Liuxian will arrive when the last general arrives...... has fallen. Relying on the strong county town, there are thousands of thieves, for the safety of the people, for the safety of the army, and the siege equipment of the last general is insufficient, so he does not dare to act rashly, and retreats to wait for rescue......"

At this point, Gao Fangping whipped him in the face and shouted, "You are a rescuer!" And counting on the rescuers! The thieves are only a few hundred, how can they come from thousands? Damn, do you fool me like a fool? ”

At this time, among the crowd of deserters, an old man in a civilian uniform burst into tears and shouted, "My lord, the little old man has something to say......
