Chapter 950: Frustration
Seeing that the progress of the excavation had slowed down significantly, a medium leader came running over with a few of his own soldiers to check.
Immediately, I found that more than a dozen pawns were squatting on the ground and idle, and no one was working.
He was furious, brandished the back of his knife and smashed it at a pawn who didn't see that he was still talking about his family and scolded: "King Chuang divided the land with Er, so that you and the whole family have something to eat, and you are repaying with such an attitude?" ”
Before the beaten rogues could answer, there was a sudden crisp sound, and the leader's head suddenly blossomed and he fell down.
A voice sounded, and it was more than a dozen loud voices shouting in unison: "Brothers, the guns of the 'Red Banner Army' can fight more than a mile, but they deliberately leave a way for you to live with good intentions, and they are all selected as officials."
The 'King of Han' is benevolent, loves the people like a son, and surrendering to the 'Red Banner Army' is to submit to the 'King of Han', and will not worry about food and clothing in the future, and every household will have 50 acres of dry land. ”
The simple training unified the content of persuasion, and the voices of more than a dozen people were heard far away, and the rogues at the forefront could basically hear it clearly.
The task of sniping the leader of the rogue is to hide the Minnie gunners at the front, and one or two hundred snipers are ambushed on a mile-long front, each of which is composed of two people, and they are divided into areas of responsibility.
This medium leader should be in charge of thousands of people in the rogue team, well-dressed, and was noticed by the snipers of the "Red Banner Army" when he ran forward with a few personal soldiers.
Getting the opportunity for the target to enter a distance of more than 300 paces, how could the sniper give up and decisively kill him.
Several of the soldiers heard the sound of the gun, but before they could react, warm blood splashed all over their faces, and they were frightened, "Mom! With a bang, he immediately plopped and fell to the ground.
There was a soldier who was closest to him, and he watched Mr. Qian, who got along day and night, being beaten to the point that his brain was bursting, only to feel that the bottom was out of control, and the feces and urine flowed sideways, and the smell was stinking suddenly.
The beaten rogues exclaimed: "Damn, the 'Red Banner Army' is too godly, the guns are like having eyes, how can it be possible to defeat them if we want to, I think about it, crawl over and surrender at night." ”
A few rogues next to him echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, the 'King of Han' killed Jiannu and the Tartars destroyed the country and wiped out the species, how can it be that 'King Gao Chuang' and 'General Li Chuang' can be enemies, surrender early and be freed early, and we will follow at night." ”
Several pro-soldiers did not dare to speak at this time, nor did they dare to raise their heads, for fear that they would also be shot in the head by the "Red Banner Army" on the opposite side.
The beaten rogues suddenly had an idea, and said bewildermently: "Brothers, it doesn't make sense for a dozen of us to crawl over and surrender, if we capture five prisoners and sacrifice them to the 'Red Banner Army', we should have changed from surrender to defection, and the treatment will definitely be very different." ”
A pro-soldier with five big and three thick soldiers was angry, he clenched his waist knife and scolded: "Wang San, you don't fart, Lao Tzu recognizes you, believe it or not, Lao Tzu cut you off first, and carried your head to surrender to the 'Red Flag Army', Lao Tzu should also be regarded as having a beheading skill." ”
Wang San held a pickaxe in his hand, smiled when he saw this, and said: "Geng Da, aren't you lying to us, you are willing to take the initiative to surrender when you eat and drink spicy food in the pro-soldier team?" ”
Geng Dadao: "Put your mother's fart, and still eat and drink spicy?" It's nice to have a cookcake. You have also seen that Mr. Qian was killed by others, what will we do in the future?
Lao Tzu has strength and martial arts, and he has long wanted to find an opportunity to defect to the 'Red Flag Army', and now that it is close at hand, of course he has to give it a try. ”
Wang San looked at the others, and still smiled and said: "Brothers, we are all fellow countrymen, Ming people don't say dark words, if you want to surrender together, give a clear word, it doesn't matter if you don't want to go, we won't use force, but don't spoil our good deeds." ”
Several other pro-soldiers think that Geng Da's words are reasonable, their lord will be killed, and there must be someone else to serve as the president of Qian, and there must be their own people around them as pro-soldiers, what will they do in the future?
A few of the soldiers spoke: "Who wants to be a thief all day long? It's great to be able to defect to the 'Red Flag Army', don't worry, let's climb over together at night!" ”
Huang Han strictly managed the "Red Flag Army" from the beginning, and every soldier was accustomed to paying attention to his own image, and his 11 years of persistent efforts were not in vain, and now he can be regarded as a well-known reputation.
There will always be a reward for paying, and this time against the rogue in the huge gain, the rogue found out that the opponent was the "Red Flag Army" after the morale plummeted, after the attack was frustrated, the vast majority of people were unwilling to fight hard, and then every day someone took the initiative to surrender.
He Yongqing, Sun Yingyuan, Huang Huiwu and other generals were still planning a fierce battle.
But after seeing the situation in the past few days, I asked some rogues who took the initiative to surrender, and they judged that the rogues just looked at the number of people and the crowd, and they were actually very rotten in their bones, and they were afraid that they would not even be able to touch the city of Tongguan.
He Yongqing immediately reported the latest analysis of the situation to the north bank of the Yellow River using the flag language, clearly pointing out that the speed of the encirclement of the various armies was very important, because after the Liukou was deflated outside Tongguan, it was very likely that they would abandon their operations and start fleeing.
The plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and it seemed that they couldn't wait for the Yellow River to freeze, so Hanzi, Sun Chuanting, Liu Zhilun and others immediately adjusted their deployments and chose three ferries to cross the river immediately.
Everyone knows that there are not many cavalry in the mainland, and in the case of not being able to complete the rush and pursuit, it is impossible to annihilate the living force of the Liukou - the old battalion horse team.
In order to avoid unnecessary casualties caused by the refueling tactics, Hanzi ordered the men and horses crossing the river to stand by on the spot, gather less than 5,000 horsemen, and not act without authorization.
Li Zicheng did not wait for the good news of the victory of his father-in-law Gao Yingxiang, but learned that the attack on the Western Front had been frustrated, and he had surrendered even to death, and nearly 10,000 men and horses had been lost.
Seeing that the weather was getting colder and colder, Li Zicheng didn't want to spend time in Tongguandong, but he didn't dare to retreat on a large scale without receiving Gao Yingxiang's order, so he had to take out half of his men and horses to defend Luoyang, Xingyang, Kaifeng and other big cities.
At the same time, Li Zicheng wrote a letter to send his henchmen to his father-in-law, pointing out that if the siege of Tongguan could not be resolved quickly, he should choose to retreat immediately, leaving Qingshan without worrying about running out of firewood, and if he could not get what he wanted this year, he could continue to do it in the coming year, and he could not fight hard to break his muscles and bones.
Of course, it is impossible for Li Zicheng to remove all his own descendants such as Liu Fangliang, Hao Shaoqi, Yuan Zongdi, Tian Jianxiu, etc.
If he does this, the "winged tiger" Jin Minghu, the "Geli Eye" He Yilong, the "Breaking the Sky" Liu Guoneng, the "Shooting the Falling Sky" Li Wanqing, and so on will be reckless and willing to listen to him.
Therefore, the "winged tiger" unit also got the opportunity to divide a small half of the troops to return to defense.
Jin Minghu, Qi Yuguo and others stayed and waited for the opportunity to capture or kill Li Zicheng.
Zhao 13 and Zhang Shouzhong led more than 10,000 men and horses to return to defense, and they had to stay in Luoyang and Kaifeng at least to ensure that these two large cities in the Central Plains were within reach when the main force arrived.
