Chapter 106: Strategy

The officer who reported the news was frightened by the thunderous anger of the chief soldier, and it took a while to react: "They have all retreated, but only half of them are left, and the cannons and guns are all gone!" He said the details of Ruichun's death: "Originally, the two battalion heads were about to be crossed, but thanks to the prefect who brought a hundred personal soldiers to press up, Futai personally took the horse and went to charge, and was killed by the red thief with a platoon of guns!" ”

"Futai turned the tide, and it was worth dying!" Ye Bingzhong only had one comment, and then said: "Let those two battalion leaders block me there!" ”

"Lord Zhentai, they have been beaten by Liu Jiehu several times, and now let them fight with Liu Jiehu again, I'm afraid they won't be able to do it!"

"Either pull them up, or let him defend the village, I have a way!"

The Red Turban Army and the Qing Army in this direction into a confrontation, although once occupied a considerable advantage, but the Qing Army's heavy formation helped a lot, two hundred Qing troops rushed over to support, the Red Turban Army front team holding rattan big guns was squeezed out by the flank of the row of guns, the two sides now set up shotguns, carry guns and split mountain cannons to fire at each other.

Suddenly, a Qing army general wearing a military uniform appeared in the rain of bullets, and he stood behind this short earthen wall and shouted: "Liu Changliu check, don't fight, don't fight!"

You have crossed us, Qu Zhenhan's dog thief will enter the city, and then it will be a situation where the birds are exhausted, the rabbits are hidden, and the dead dogs are cooked, you leave some leeway! ”

"Liu Checkpoint, everyone leaves some leeway for each other, and we can meet in the future! Don't you know the fate of Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin? The general of the Qing army shouted loudly: "We have crossed, Qu Zhenhan has entered the city, and the next thing is all the benefits of the Red Turban Army, will you gain anything!" ”

Qu Zhenhan happened to be in the Red Turban Army opposite, and when he heard this, he snorted, but shouted: "Nonsense, mess with our army's heart, find a few quasi-head guns, and kill this Qing demon on the spot!" ”

A few shotguns bombarded the past, and the Qing army general immediately hid behind the earthen wall and stopped shouting, but the shouts of this Qing demon echoed in Qu Zhenhan's heart from time to time: "Wear a bolt, this Qing demon messes with our army's heart, it's really hateful!" Jin Peiquan was Qu Zhenhan's mastermind, but when he heard this, he smiled bitterly: "It's Liu Checkpoint who is hateful!" ”

Qu Zhenhan was told through his heart, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The tail is too big to fall!" Jin Peizhuan grabbed his hand and said: "We can't be considered a momentum at all now, why do you want to do so much!" Now we haven't even opened the city of Wenzhou, so we have such a little territory, such a little people, don't be a happy thing for relatives and enemies! ”

Although he is a third-rate mastermind, he is never confused in major matters: "When you use people, you have to work hard!" ”

Qu Zhenhan's face became more and more helpless, but he said: "I'll send someone to the inspection point to take a look!" "Hateful!"

Now the retreating Qing army occupied an uninhabited village, built a simple line of defense based on the village, and also confronted Liu Chang's troops.

Shi Huiji said again and again: "I almost can make dumplings for the Qing demons of these two camp heads, just a little bit!" ”

The head of the Qing army camp that stepped down this step down was like a virgin after breaking the chastity, and one more time would be more lubricated, the casualties of Liu Chang's army were getting smaller and smaller, and the fight was getting easier and easier, and even the auxiliary troops under Liu Chang were getting more and more comfortable, Shi Huiji captured fifty or sixty prisoners in one breath, and he could completely cross these two battalion heads.

But who would have thought that a lifeless Ruichun prefect would rush out with a hundred personal soldiers and rush towards the Red Turban Army, especially the Ruichun prefect as a Mongolian, his equestrian skills are not bad, and he galloped back and forth to supervise the battle, driving the 100 Qing troops to rush to the death.

It took two rounds of firing from the Red Turban Army to overcome the counterattack led by Ruichun, who was shot and killed indiscriminately on his horse, but the retreating Qing army also got a chance to breathe and retreated into the village in front of him.

Compared with the field battle, such a village attack is obviously much more difficult, although the artillery team took out the strength of the bayonet on the cannon, but still fell behind, looking at the Qing army guarding the wall, Shi retreated Ji Lian called it a pity.

Although the morale of these hundreds of Qing troops in the village was not high, they could make Liu Chang's army pay a lot of casualties by defending the village, so Liu Chang asked the troops to retreat a little later, ready to wait for the artillery team's mountain splitting artillery to catch up.

"Let the artillery team speed up, speed up!"

As he was talking, a Qing army general stood up from the roof of a stone house and shouted to this side: "Marshal Qu, you don't have to fight so hard, fight so fiercely, so that your brother can't go back to Fucheng, what benefits can you get!" ”

"You fought down the country!" He continued to shout: "But the country that has been beaten down is going to be returned to outsiders, isn't it?" We can't go back, and the city will be a willow house! ”

Sun Huzi next to Liu Chang accused the shouting general and said: "This is Ye Bingzhong, the chief soldier of Wenzhou Town!" ”

Ye Bingzhong continued to stand on the roof and shouted loudly: "Huo Dashuai, let's leave room for meeting, you let me go, I will let you go, let's not let the well water interfere with the river water, don't let outsiders take advantage!" "You can have this position today, it is my credit, if it weren't for my own system, you could stay in the position of Dashuai for so long!"

Liu Chang sneered: "He actually dares not to know my Liu Juehu, this discordant plan is too obvious!" But Huo Qiu next to him was a little worried: "He is a conspiracy, no matter what, it will be a bad thing to reach Qu Shuai's ears!" ”

"There are so many bad things!" Liu Chang was also polite: "There is no shortage of such a case, has the artillery team come up?" "It's coming up right away!" Huo Qiuzhou asked, "Do you want to continue to attack?" ”

"Stand back!" Liu Chang: "Since Mr. Ye sent such a generous gift, let's not return the last heavy gift, it will be unintentional!" ”

Watching Liu Chang's company slowly retreat one by one, disappearing from his sight, Ye Bingzhong breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to be sloppy, and sent a team of sentries out of the village to confirm that Liu Jue's corpse had indeed retreated.

Soon he got a clear answer, Liu Jiehu did retreat, only to find that he was covered in sweat, but he almost fell off the roof with an unstable center of gravity.

These generals and colonels under his command immediately gathered around the general soldier, and they all praised General Ye for being as clever as a god: "The general town is really strategic, and it is far-sighted!" "Yes! It didn't take a single shot to scare off Liu Jiehu! ”

"As long as there is a town, Liu Juehu must not be rampant!" "Zhentai God, Zhentai God, but a few words drove away the thief Liu Jiehu!" Even Qinglian, the envoy of Zhejiang Salt Transport, praised: "As long as it is past today, I will definitely play the miraculous work of Ming Zhentai to Futai, what a miracle!" ”

Thinking that Liu Chang was frightened by his few words, Ye Bingzhong also laughed three times: "Liu Juehu is nothing more than that, but that's it!" It's just that as soon as the laughter fell, someone over there was already running in: "Yunsi, Zhentai!" Oh no, our insertion was robbed by Liu Juehu! The spokes are all lost, and the insertion weight is all lost! ”

Ye Bingzhong's laughter stopped suddenly.

At this moment, Liu Chang was looking at his gains in the night: "Not bad, not bad!" That's great! Mr. Ye's generous gift is very appropriate! ”

The weight of Ye Bingzhong's army has fallen into Liu Chang's hands, including two loads of silver,

Twenty or thirty mules and horses, dozens of carts of gunpowder, grain and grass, ammunition, as well as some military materials in the army, and even the personal utensils and property of Qinglian and Ye Bingzhong were all in Liu Chang's hands.

"Yes! Oh, yes! The new Shi retirement season has already smiled: "Mr. Ye's generous gift is very good!" ”

They easily bypassed the village guarded by the Qing army, and then, according to the prisoner's confession, they copied the trail and went straight to Luzhong, and it didn't take much effort, and they took Qinglian's Chinese army and Huizhong in two or three minutes, and everything was so easy: "After an afternoon of hard ambush, this final battle is the most relaxed!" "It's night, and the battlefield can still hear scattered gunfire, but it's getting sparse and thin, and today's battle is coming to an end!

Huo Qiu said: "It's a pity that the Ox Knife Whistle and the Jintang Whistle stayed on the rock, otherwise none of the three battalion leaders would want to run today!" ”

Shi Huiji was taken aback, he didn't expect that this Liu Jiehu still had spare strength, and five such strong sentries came out together, what kind of scene was that!

He thought about it carefully, if there were five sentry posts, even if he didn't bring their auxiliary troops, he would definitely be able to leave these three sentry behind, and most of the role he and the vanguard team played was just waving the flag and shouting.

On the contrary, the brave team led by veterans of various outposts and composed of Qing army prisoners played a little in a circle, which was much more conspicuous than their auxiliary troops, but according to Huo Qiu, this brave team was just an institution for training prisoners and training recruits.

I really made the right bet!

Just as he was thinking about this, someone over there had already come: "It's the messenger sent by Qu Shuai, they asked how the inspection was doing!" ”

"The inspection point commanded all the outposts of our army, successively broke the three infantry battalions of the Qing army as many as seven times, annihilated nearly 1,000 captured Qing demons, and beheaded Ruichun, the prefect of Wenzhou, and captured a number of heavy weights." The messenger sent over nodded, looked around, and asked again: "Qu Shuai still wants to ask about the inspection, how should I fight next?" Liu Chang glanced at the starry sky and replied: "Tell Qu Shuai that it is advisable to chase after the poor man with the remaining bravery, and not to become a famous overlord, the key to victory and defeat is tonight, please grit his teeth and hold on!" The envoy came through the line of fire, and it took a lot of effort to find Liu Chang, and when he heard this, he responded: "I'll take the words of the inspection back to Qu Shuai!" ”

It's just that after he left, Shi Huiji spat on the ground and said unceremoniously: "Check, this is a prison sent by the army!" It's good that he knows his own interest, otherwise he would have been stacked tonight! Others have scruples when they speak, he is a newly attached person, and he doesn't have scruples when he speaks, so he asked Liu Chang directly: "Check, when will we do it alone!" ”
