Chapter 737: A Happy Enemy General

From Lang Son Wei to Bac Giang, the post road is less than 200 miles. Zhang Fu's army marched without hindrance; The weather was good these days, only one rain was encountered on the road, and the army maintained a marching speed of more than forty miles every day. It is expected that within four to five days, the officers and troops will be under the city of Beijiang.

Zhengyi's right deputy general, Heyang Marquis Yin, won the victory, and this time led the troops under Zhang Fu; But he really dislikes Zhang Fu, the coach, and his old department Huang Zhong.

Thinking back then, Yin Desheng was still a child, admiring those heroes who were recited in ancient and modern times, and singing a song "Angry hair rushing to the crown and leaning on the railing" can be enthusiastic; Always ready to serve the court and make contributions. But the first time Yin Desheng went to the battlefield, he was poured a scoop of cold water and taught him to gradually recognize reality.

He was first ambushed by the Annan army at Huangzhong and Qinzhan, and then fought a bloody battle in Duobang City. Yin Desheng may not be able to forget for the rest of his life, the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood piled up under the city wall. And all this is just for the military exploits of those above.

At that time, Zhang Fu and Huang Zhong ordered the soldiers to take the hundred households as the formation, go forward one after another, constantly climb the ladder and the soil, and go up to die! Yin Desheng is a hereditary hundred households, and there are more than 100 living brothers under his command, and after a day, there are more than a dozen people left; He's lucky, and there are still some hundred households with only one or two people left.

Now Yin Desheng has come to Annan again. When he revisited his hometown, he seemed to see the enemy army above his head again, the air was densely packed with arrows, rolling wood, and boiling dung; Corpses piled up underneath, and back roads blocked by law enforcement teams and their own people. People cried and roared in despair on the ladder, and the sound was like a sound in their ears, which made people's hearts tremble.

"Heyang Hou?" Zhang Fu's voice woke Yin Desheng from his distraction.

Yin Desheng, who was sitting on horseback, turned his head and saw the flat rice fields, like long dragons of people and horses, and the fire guns and spears were dense, like a forest with fallen leaves. Zhang Fuzheng, who was not far away, looked back at him.

"Dashuai." Yin Desheng hugged his fists, but there was no fluctuation between his words.

Zhang Fudao: "This commander uses soldiers, is the Marquis of Heyang dissatisfied?" ”

You can see it? However, Zhang Fu's deployment this time and Yin Desheng were not too dissatisfied, he just had an opinion on Zhang Fu.

Yin Desheng said: "If the marshal has a military order, the general will definitely follow it." ”

Zhang Fu nodded, and asked again: "I heard that during the Yongle period of the campaign against Annan, the Marquis of Heyang was also in the army?" ”

Yin Desheng replied: "It is true, the last general fought in the city of many states. ”

"Dobang?" Zhang Fu was immediately surprised, "That siege battle was fought by my subordinates, and the men and horses under the command of the Holy Lord (Zhu Gaoxu) did not participate in the attack on Duobang City. Aren't you a military general from the Yunnan Guard? ”

Yin Desheng said: "The last general belongs to the Yunnan guard. At first, General Huang Zhong was ordered to escort Chen Tianping and transferred troops from the Yunnan Guard, and the last general was among the conscripts; After we were ambushed near Qin Station, the men and horses in Huangzhong have not been disbanded. Later, in the Battle of Annam, Huang Zhongzhong was led by Dashuai (Zhang Fu), and the last general served in Dashuai's Eastern Route Army. ”

"I see." Zhang Fu said suddenly, "When I was in Annanguo, I didn't have any impression of you, and the grade was not high?" ”

Yin Desheng said: "The last general was a hundred households at that time. ”

Zhang Fu's face showed a strange expression, and he was silent for a moment before saying: "Leading troops to fight, only loyalty may not work. You just have to obey the military orders, and don't make your own decisions. ”

Yin Desheng said coldly: "I'm afraid that the marquis has some misunderstandings, the last marquis, is not a slap horse, it is all a military feat. If you don't believe it, you can ask. ”

Zhang Fu showed a smiling expression, noncommittal.

Yin Desheng thought about it, so he didn't continue to brag. Maybe there are some things that can't be confused by old fritters like Zhang Fu, if it weren't for the appreciation of the superiors, there would indeed be no chance to desperately accumulate military merits; Of course, you have to be lucky, otherwise you will die and your military merits will be useless, just like Liu Dagen who was scalded to death in Guizhou by feces.

But Yin Desheng just didn't like Zhang Fu, and couldn't help but say: "A few days ago in the Langshan Acropolis, the last general heard the deployment of the commander, and used the men and horses of Huang Zhong and An Yuanhou to cut off the back road of the rebels in Jiangbei Mansion. The rebels are cornered, don't fight with us? ”

Zhang Fu said: "So what, dare to love Heyang Hou because he has won too much in the battle battle?" ”

Yin Desheng frowned and said: "The last general just suggested, as long as the enemy army is defeated, most of the enemy can still be captured after chasing the north, and there is no need to kill every enemy soldier." ”

Zhang Fu didn't care, and said categorically: "The Marquis of Heyang must not relax, let alone disobey the military order." Since the general is ordered to take charge of the army, no matter what the origin of his subordinates is, no matter who violates military law, he will definitely be punished without discrimination! ”

Yin Desheng was speechless.

…… When the army marched south, about dozens of miles away from Beijiang Fucheng, Zhang Fu suddenly ordered the whole army to camp and hold on.

Yin Desheng and the others thought that Zhang Fu would first find out the reality of the enemy army and fight safely. Unexpectedly, only two days later, after the Chinese army received a response from Huang Zhong and Liu Sheng to advance in accordance with the military order, Zhang Fu immediately ordered the whole army to continue to advance.

Tanma had seen the movements of the rebel army Ruan Shuai's troops clearly, and its main force set up several large military villages ten miles north of the city, gathering all the men and horses together, and there was no sign of defending the city.

Such a military situation made the generals of the Ming army speculate: The enemy army occupies Bac Giang Mansion, and the attempt seems to be to attack the reinforcements of the Ming army who have just entered Annam?!

And Zhang Fu's deployment was not to rescue Dongguan (Hanoi), he came to counterattack. As a result, the large forces of the two sides had just approached, and they quickly began to evolve towards the main battle.

It's unexpected, but it's not a bad thing. The gathering of forces between the two sides is the most efficient and shortest way of warfare at this time, and a battle can quickly determine the direction of the entire war.

This is exactly what the generals of the Ming army want to see, because the Ming army must achieve results as soon as possible before the end of the dry season, otherwise it will be difficult to continue the offensive. The war in Annam will drag on for a long time.

In late September, the armies of the two sides gradually approached north of Fucheng, a distance of less than ten miles. Zhang Fu and other generals failed to estimate the number of enemy troops more accurately; This is because although the terrain is very flat, it is also more complicated.

The places where the rebels operated, there were many ponds, dense woods, paddy fields and villages, and the places where they could move were not very open; And there are many sporadic guerrilla activities on the periphery. It was difficult for the Ming army scouts to penetrate into its depth and explore the details. However, judging from the size of the territory of the rebels' activities, the number of people may be larger than Zhang Fu's troops.

The battlefield was roughly on the east bank of the Shang River, and Yin Desheng led the army as the right flank, and the Shang River could already be seen on the side of the army formation.

After Zhang Fu inspected the battlefield, he found a place with fewer ponds and woods, and asked all departments to form a large array. Then he ordered a group of men and horses, composed of cavalry, archers, spears and shields, to go to the deceit and lure the enemy to come over for a decisive battle.

The weather is sunny with a thin mist between the sparse woods and grasses. From a distance, the scene is a little hazy, but you can't feel the fog up close. Yin Desheng was on the right flank, and ordered all 1,000 corps to form a large formation: prepare for battle, and do not act rashly before the fighters arrive. These are all military orders from Zhang Fu to the generals.

I don't know how long later, the sound of various firearms was heard in the distance; Far away, Yin Desheng couldn't see anything. However, he knew which firearms were put by the rebels, because the Ming soldiers and horses who went to lure the enemy did not carry firearms. Listening to the sound is probably some bowl-mouthed guns, and sharpshooters are ringing.

Yin Desheng paid attention to the scene ahead, and for a long time he only heard the sound of guns and cannons, and there was no movement. To the south, there were a few villages, overgrown shrublands, paddy fields, and grassy wastelands, and a white mist on the horizon.

There was not a single common man in sight, except for the wandering scouts. The army is approaching, the guns are firing, and even if there are civilians, I am afraid that they will find a place to hide.

The armies waited in formation for a long time, and in the fog in the distance, a figure finally appeared. There were more and more people, and in front were some loose archers and a small number of horsemen, who had probably entered within a mile of the Ming army's front.

The group of archers, not far from the large number of rebels in the rear, also seemed to be worried that they would be too far away from the main force and would be attacked by the cavalry of the Ming army. The number of horses and cavalry combat power of the Ming army were far from being comparable to those of the Annan army; It's just that in Annam, cavalry often does not play its full role.

The noise of noisy men and horses became louder and louder, and from time to time there was a sound of strings, and the rangers in front of the Ming army were driven away. Enemy archers were hundreds of paces away, still approaching.

There are many flags around Yin Desheng, including a regimental dragon sun and moon flag with a blue background and a yellow line, as well as a military flag with the words "Zhengyi Right Deputy General" and "Yin", as well as bordered pennants of various colors. The flag swayed listlessly and gently, and there was no wind today. None of the Ming troops began to attack, and all of them lined up and waited.

A large number of men and horses of the Annan Army have appeared, they have different clothes and armor, and most of the soldiers wear a kind of bamboo hat that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and there are also soldiers who wear iron helmets similar to those of the Ming army. When the flag was shaking, it was probably written in Chinese characters. The rebels have a formation queue, but the appearance of the Annam people always looks a little loose, and they are not as clean as the Ming army.

It didn't take long for the sound of strings to be heard in several places in the east and west, and the two sides were gradually beginning to fight. The rebel vanguard light soldiers took bows and arrows and shot arrows at the Ming army's formation, and the arrows hit the armor and shield of the spear and shield soldiers. Screams of pain followed.

Yin Desheng watched the surrounding scene on horseback, and saw the rebels on the south side of a forest, and the crowd with fire guns had advanced in groups. He shouted, "Beat the drums, order the teams, and prepare to fight back!" ”

"Order!"

In a short time, the slow-paced drums were heard in the array, and the hoarse and rough sound of the horn also sounded. The shouts and scolding of the generals in the distance continued, and the Ming army became more and more lively on the large array.
