Chapter 162: Multiple Choice Questions

Zheng Xiaowen and Gao Youmou had already entered the city, and they were commanding the army to serve and the infantry to collect and capture at this time, Song Pengfei hurriedly ran over and called Zheng Xiaowen and said:

"Master Zheng, the master brought you a message, asking you to hurry up and find Lord Fantai and remind him that the old man should report the victory quickly.

Our people should be on top! As for how much he won, the master has also taken care of it, and said that it is still being counted. The master led the cavalry brothers to pursue Jiannu, and there will always be a capture, but it is just a little different. ”

When Zheng Xiaowen heard this, he immediately understood, agreed, and hurriedly got on his horse and ran to the west gate.

He was excited in his heart, if it was really the people led by his father who took the lead in capturing the city, then wouldn't even Inspector Sun be crushed?

What kind of reward should the "Red Banner Army" who won the first merit in breaking the city get, and should he, the master of the eight-rank false title, go further?

It didn't take long for Zheng Xiaowen to meet the brigade that entered the city, he was just a small eight-rank official, because the officials around Zheng Guochang all knew this son, so he didn't even need to report it, and saw his father directly.

Although Zheng Guochang was in a heavy mood, he was full of interest, and when he saw his son, he hurriedly asked: "Where is Huang Han now, is he already pursuing the enemy army?" ”

At this time, it was official business, Zheng Xiaowen used officialdom titles and etiquette in a proper manner, he bowed down and said: "Back to my lordship, General Huang has launched a pursuit, he arranged for the official to tell your lordship, and the victory should be reported as soon as possible, and the victory will be counted soon." ”

"Oh! It wasn't for Huang Han to remind him, but the old man almost forgot about this big event. ”

The last time I had a more or less unpleasant quarrel with the superintendent Sun Chengzong, Zheng Guochang actually kept feeling more energetic.

The messengers of the territory of Yongping Mansion were constantly coming and going, and Zheng Guochang knew that the offensive and defensive battles in Luanzhou had been fought for two or three days, and there was no latest news, and the main force should not have been able to capture the city.

And he took the city of Yongping overnight, although the victory was unsatisfactory, but the work of recovering the land is also a great merit!

At this time, if you don't hurry up to the Ministry of War to send an official document and report to the Holy Son of Heaven?

A moment later, Yongping Fucheng rushed out of a group of cavalry hurriedly to the direction of the capital, they will change horses all the way and gallop, the speed is no less than six hundred miles of urgency, it is estimated that Zheng Guochang's handwriting of the "Yongping Great Victory" will appear in Chongzhen's dragon book case.

Zheng Fantai got the great merit of recovering the land and didn't want to have too much contact with the superintendent, he was ready to go his own way, and deliberately did not send a messenger to Luanzhou Ming Army Camp to inform the fact that Yongping Mansion had been taken, anyway, he had already gone to the military department.

Gao Youmou, who was counting the spoils of war, watched Zheng Xiaowen get on the horse and gallop westward, and there was only one small guy by his side.

He looked at the eight family members who were full of force and stood behind him like door gods, and stomped his feet angrily: "What are you doing with me? You're cavalry! Why don't you take this opportunity to go out of the city to hunt down Jiannu? ”

Gao Zhongyi, the head of the family, said: "Childe, the master has instructed me to wait, and we will follow wherever the son is." Our mission is to protect Childe, not really to be a soldier. ”

"Confused, why didn't the family of Master Zheng follow? The four members of the Zheng family have fought with the cavalry many times, and they have already won several levels. Today, I followed General Huang out of the city to pursue Jiannu.

Don't you want to get military merit and get a position, strive to become a general, and change your court? In my opinion, the future of the 'Red Banner Army' in the future is limitless, and you and other archers and horses are skillful, well-equipped, and literate, and you should be able to fight for a bright future when you integrate into the 'Red Banner Army' as soon as possible. ”

Gao Youmou said a lot of words, but the eight family members were indifferent, and Gao Youmou, who was unwilling to be lonely, gritted his teeth and said: "This official went out of the city to chase Lord Huang Han, presumably after the cavalry fight, there will be captures and battle losses that need to be counted, and accounting for military merits is my job as the master bookkeeper." ”

Seeing that their son-in-law deliberately risked his life and did not hinder it, the eight family members still followed closely in unison, and nine people and eighteen horses searched for the direction of the "Red Banner Army" out of the city.

Although Huang Han was not in Yongping City, he did not pursue Amin either.

Because he was faced with two choice questions, one of which was naturally to pursue the fleeing Amin in the direction of Qian'an, but Huang Han thought that there was another choice, that is, to wait for labor to attack and kill the defeated soldiers of the Later Jin generals such as Turge and Namutai who had fled from Luanzhou.

Amin and more than 1,000 armor-clad men and hundreds of bannermen escaped easily without experiencing a bloody battle, and it is estimated that it is completely possible to keep a surplus of two horses, and the cavalry of the "Red Banner Army" is likely to eat dust in the back after the pursuit, and it is in vain.

According to the historical process, the offensive and defensive battle of Luanzhou will have results tonight, and it is logical for the Ming army to seize the city, and it is natural for Jiannu to be defeated and flee.

The only difference with history is that the Yongping Mansion City was lost two days in advance, and the Houjin army that escaped from Luanzhou may not know that Amin ran away with the men and horses, and they finally managed to kill the Ming army after a desperate battle, galloping hundreds of miles to Yongping Mansion City, when they should be sleepy and lacking.

At this time, the eight or nine hundred cavalry of the "Red Banner Army" who had recuperated and recuperated pounced on them and beat them up, and after half of them were killed, the Jin army should have this possibility.

Therefore, Huang Han and his men and horses did not go out of the north gate of Yongping Mansion City, but did not delay for a second, and passed through the city directly, opposite to the direction of Amin's defeated and fleeing people.

The "Red Banner Army" hurriedly slaughtered out of the south gate, and was so lucky that it caught up with and attacked and killed three messengers who were rushing in the direction of Luanzhou.

These three horses are all two-horse transfers, originally still in Youzai, found the "Red Flag Army" before running south, but unfortunately Yuan Siming, Sang Yu and other dozens of first-class horsemen caught up and cut off the horse, and from their arms found out Amin hastily used the seal of the paper.

The content of the document is relatively simple, that is, to order the Luanzhou defenders to immediately return north as a whole after receiving the order, and move the assembly site to Ancheng.

This is entirely because dozens of people in the "Red Banner Army" such as Hanzi, Yuan Siming, and Sang Yu have Arab war horses with good explosive power, and it is also because the soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" move quickly enough.

Another reason is the most important, these three messengers already knew that Luanzhou was besieged by the Ming army, for the sake of safety, they did not dare to rush to the battlefield, thinking about losing some time, and then playing a full sprint when it was dark.

This windfall further strengthened the confidence of the Jin army after Huang Han's ambush and defeat in Luanzhou, and in order to shield the battlefield, Huang Han ordered and cleared all living people within thirty miles of the official road.

Of course, they will not all be killed, and it is found that the Han people temporarily restrict their activities, and they are found to be directly killed by Jiannu and Qiding.

The purpose is self-evident, that is, to make his ambush so that the Houjin army coming from the direction of Luanzhou has no way to know.
