Chapter Forty-Eight: The Defeat of the Army and the Killing of the General Five

You must know that Cao Zongyu has not cooperated with Wang Long. Wang Lung's cavalry was also a strong force.

But the current situation has disappointed Cao Zongyu.

In fact, this is also to blame Wang Lung, Wang Lung originally led all cavalry. Even if the army was expanded, Wang Lung was reluctant to break up and expand the cavalry, so most of Wang Long's expanded soldiers were surrendered by the Ming army, but many officers were drawn from the horse team.

Wang Lung has been stationed in Hangzhou. When the army was expanded, it was natural to recruit more people from Jiangnan.

Of course, many people have regional prejudices and say that Jiangnan people can't fight. But the name of the Zhejiang army is also famous all over the world. Of course, on the other hand, this kind of regional bias is not unreasonable.

There is heaven above, and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below, which shows the prosperity of Hangzhou. When people's quality of life is better, their desperate thoughts will be smaller. And the war itself is a matter of fighting for life.

Compared with the Northland Hanling, it is natural that the son-in-law in Jiangnan is unwilling to work hard.

Even if it is rectified, but the fighting style is soft, there is no way to do it.

It's just this kind of inside story, as Cao Zongyu, who has been following Zhang Xuan, from the fourteenth year of Chongzhen to the first year of Wuxing, has almost always been active on the battlefield, and has never contacted Cao Zongyu, who has rested for three months. I can't understand it all at once.

It's just that understanding can be put later, but there can be no hesitation in the war.

Cao Zongyu immediately ordered to prepare for an attack.

Thaksin has trusted his own men.

"General, the last general is invited to fight." Zhang Xianbi has already found it.

Cao Zongyu said: "General Zhang, you have already fought a battle yesterday, so let's suppress the battle today." ”

Zhang Xianbi said: "General, please listen to the words of the last general. The last general has been in the Yueyang Army for a long time, and he knows the inside story of the Yueyang Army, and the Yueyang Army is all people who are in the position of corpse meal. The end will be familiar with it. Will the last will persuade them to abandon the darkness and turn to the light? ”

Cao Zongyu frowned and said: "On the battlefield, there are no eyes for swords and guns, is General Zhang's words true?" ”

It's not that Cao Zongyu doesn't believe Zhang Xianbi, but he persuaded him to surrender, which made Cao Zongyu feel that it was a joke.

A person may be a sane creature, but a group of people may not.

On the battlefield, they all speak with their swords. Many times the red eyes are killed, and the surrender is not accepted. At the beginning, the connection between the rebels and the official army was just to communicate with each other and do some hookups in addition to fighting. When it comes to fighting, it is never said who plays tricks.

Because no one believes whom? If you are not careful on the battlefield, you will end up in a different place. Who will fight and persuade to surrender at the same time.

Zhang Xianbi said: "The last general dares to make a military order. ”

He dared to do this, it was not unsure, his certainty was his influence on Yueyangjun. Although Zhang Xianbi was implicated because of Huang Chaoxuan, his status fell

Qianzhang, so much so that he became an abandoned son of Yueyang.

But before, it was very important, almost the second person in the Yueyang army after Ma Luan, and Ma Luan also knew that he was above the military affairs and could not be regarded as clever, so he relied on Zhang Xianbi in many things.

It can be seen from Zhang Xianbi's beginning to guard the vital Chengling Mountain.

Although he has become an enemy now, his influence cannot be eliminated in a moment. His city was also offered, and his name was cast.

I also heard that Huang Chaoxuan had become a major general in the siege of Changsha, and his status was still above himself, so he was inevitably angry.

Yes, Zhang Xianbi and Huang Chaoxuan, two good brothers and good friends who support each other, now have a deep knot, especially in Zhang Xianbi's heart.

The two of them are fellow villagers, and they have worked together under Fu Zonglong and Song Yihe, and with mutual support, they have escaped death several times.

The relationship is not insignificant. Almost with a head on the ground, swearing to be a brother of the opposite sex.

But Zhang Xianbi deeply understands that the person who hurts you the most is your brother. In the first battle of Nanjin Port, Huang Chaoxuan made the most beneficial choice for him.

Didn't even fight, surrendered.

This surrender allowed him to rise to prominence among the Xia army. But didn't he think about Zhang Xianbi?

After the incident, Zhang Xianbi did not know the inside story, and desperately defended Huang Chaoxuan, and because these defenses became important evidence that he was Huang Chaoxuan's party.

Li Guo wanted to kill him at that time.

If it weren't for Ma Luan, in order to ensure the cohesion of the Yueyang army, he stepped forward to protect Zhang Xianbi. At this moment, Zhang Xianbi is already in a different place.

After walking around the ghost gate, Zhang Xianbi didn't hate Li Guo, he didn't hate Ma Luan, but he hated Huang Chaoxuan, he didn't hate Huang Chaoxuan's surrender, he hated Huang Chaoxuan's surrender, and he didn't give himself a letter.

Probably the depth of love and the depth of responsibility.

At this moment, Zhang Xianbi was unwilling to accept that his status in the Xia Army was under Huang Chaoxuan. So while he still has a little influence in the Ming army, he should do more things.

And he could also see that the Yueyang Army was menacing, but in fact, it was just a false fire.

Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men.

But winning a battle is not just about the brave man. What is more needed is the training of an army in peacetime, which is loose and loose on weekdays, and the war has given enough money to boost morale, and it is just a stimulant shot. It doesn't mean that if you give money, you can be promoted from scum to king.

And Cao Zongyu certainly looked down on the combat effectiveness of Wang Long's subordinates.

But in Zhang Xianbi's opinion, the combat effectiveness of Wang Long's subordinates is also good, at least the false fire that has been stirred up by the heavy money has almost been consumed.

It can't be compared with the elite of Zhang Xuan's subordinates, but it is also above the horizontal line.

One surplus and one shortage. In Zhang Xianbi's view, the combat effectiveness of Ma Luan's department

It's already peaking, and then it's going to be a recession. It's a good time to strike.

Zhang Xianbi also knows that nothing is foolproof. But when soldiers eat food, they all tie their heads to the waistband of their trousers. Zhang Xianbi fought all the way down, and he also encountered I don't know how many dangers.

He didn't care anymore.

In contrast, Cao Zongyu's understanding of the Ming Army's Maluan Department was one layer worse, and he secretly said in his heart: "Let him go to fight, even if there is a mistake, I have more than 10,000 soldiers, and there is a chance to recover." ”

Thinking of this, Cao Zongyu said, "Okay." Since General Zhang has this heart, how can I not be fulfilled? I will press for General Zhang, please rest assured. In case of danger, I am always there to help. ”

"Thank you, General." Zhang Xianbi said.

Without further ado, as soon as Zhang Xianbi waited for Cao Zongyu to agree, he immediately took action.

Zhang Xianbi's department crossed Cao Zongyu's department and rushed over.

Zhang Xianbi's battle is still of some level, although it is not as good as Cao Zongyu's department, but in the standard of the Ming army, it can also be called a fierce future, otherwise even if there are geographical factors, it will not be under the onslaught of Xu Du for two days.

Zhang Xianbi led more than 100 cavalry, which was what he could collect all the cavalry. The large group of men and horses behind them all threw down, swept across the battlefield, and shouted loudly: "Zhang Xianbi is here, who dares to stop me?" ”

Even in the eyes of Cao Zongyu in the back, he felt that Zhang Xianbi was a little heroic.

However, Zhang Xianbi also has the confidence to do this. His confidence is his influence in the Ma Luan army, Ma Luan is a civilian official, and the training of the Yueyang army is often presided over by Zhang Xianbi.

Most of the soldiers knew Zhang Xianbi.

Many of them know that Zhang Xianbi has become an enemy.

But it's one thing to know, it's another to see it with your own eyes. At this moment, the former boss has become an enemy, and many places can't help but have some commotion.

Of course, not everyone in Maluan's army obeyed him, and some people rushed over and shouted: "Traitorous thief, take your life." ”

Zhang Xianbi took a closer look and immediately recognized this person, this person's surname is Ma, and Ma Luan is a family, it seems to be a side branch of Guiyang Majia, but there is a bit of martial arts, relying on the relationship with Ma Luan, and Zhang Xianbi has long had a conflict.

Zhang Xianbi has been forbearing, and when he saw it at this moment, he laughed instead of being angry, and shouted: "Ma family child, I don't want to see you here today, God really helps me to take revenge, take my life." ”

Zhang Xianbi pulled the reins and rushed over.

To be honest, Zhang Xianbi's riding skills are not very good. Compared with Luo Dai and others, it is much worse. After all, he is a native of Yunnan, not a native of Jiubian, and he is proficient in mountain warfare, not horse warfare.

However, the Ma family is also from Guiyang. They are also not proficient in these things, which can be regarded as canceling each other.
