Chapter 142: Fighting and handing bricks
The menacing peasant army was like a willful storm, and only five days later it set up camp outside the city, and the water surrounding the city of Mizhi County could not be drained. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In addition to Gao Yingxiang's department, the peasant army that came was mainly divided into two major branches: the East Road and the West Road. The famous leaders in the East Road included Wang Jiayin, Luo Rucai, Scorpion Block and others, and they were the first to arrive from the western part of Shanxi when they heard the news. The famous leaders of the West Road were Shen Yiyuan and Shen Yikui, who were mainly active in the area of Yan'an and Qingyang Prefectures in Shaanxi, and were standard land snakes, but they were the last peasant army to get the news.
The small Mizhi County has never been so lively, and the small area outside the city has gathered more than 80,000 peasant army leaders and most of the leaders of the peasant army, which is as lively as a meeting.
The balance of victory has been completely tilted in favor of the peasant army, and they no longer regard Guan Shanyue in the city, which is already a knife on their chopping block.
The premise of all this is that these unruly leaders are united, but obviously they can't do it now, which gives Guan Shanyue a chance to break through.
The peasant army besieged but did not attack, because everyone wanted to come out on top, and regarded Guan Shanyue's head as their own bag, and the bonus had risen to one million taels of silver, and they quarreled under the city for three days without attacking the county seat of Mizhi County.
Guan Shanyue stood at the head of the city, looked at the hyped peasant army through the telescope, sighed and shook her head helplessly, and muttered: "No wonder they can't achieve the climate, there are so many mountains, not to mention that they can't even achieve basic unity, let alone a program of action." I'm afraid I don't even know why they're fighting, and it's no wonder that their bamboo baskets are empty, and in the end they all become other people's wedding dresses. ”
He was not in a hurry, Zhang Shidi, who was standing behind him, was in a hurry, he stood at the head of the city and looked at the peasant army under the city that wanted to die, and said anxiously: "Lord Guan, you should think of a strategy quickly, once the city of Mizhi County is broken, the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”
Guan Shanyue retracted the binoculars, patted Zhang Shidi on the shoulder, there was no trace of anxiety on his face, and said calmly: "Zhang County reassures you, I know better than you what kind of urine the thieves are, isn't it just slaughtering the city, what's the big deal." ”
Zhang Shidi's legs were weak, and he hurriedly held the battlements of the city wall with his hands, and said tremblingly: "Lord Guan, I can't help it, there are more than 10,000 lives in the city, and Mizhi County must not be broken!" ”
Guan Shanyue nodded and comforted: "That's good to say, if you don't want the city to be slaughtered, as long as Zhang County orders all the young and middle-aged people in the city to gather to defend the city, I will lead my troops out to lure the thieves away, their goal is the head of the official, and they should not embarrass the people in the city." ”
Zhang Shidi looked stunned, exchanging Guan Shanyue's life for the lives of the people in the city seemed to be the only feasible strategy at present, but it was really unfair to Guan Shanyue, but he really couldn't think of a better plan, so he had to stare at Guan Shanyue, and turned around to recruit the young adults in the city to defend the city.
Guan Shanyue looked at the noisy peasant army general under the city, pursed her lips, and said: "Quarrel, quarrel, give me two more days, Daning's Huben Camp and Divine Arrow Battalion will come over, and it is really uncertain who will kill the deer at that time." ”
Chen Ergou looked indignant and scolded: "What's the matter, after so many days, it is impossible for Yang He and Hong Chengchou not to know." More than ten urgent letters for help have been sent, but except for He Wenlong's people who have been harassing on the periphery, all of them are standing still, especially the group of guys in Yansui Town, which is closest to us, and they hate me so much that the roots of my teeth itch. ”
Guan Shanyue's heart was mixed, he suddenly felt that the surrounding Ming army was like the national army back then, and he especially wanted to say: "For the sake of the party and the state, pull the brothers!" "But obviously, these deflated calves are like the eight kings who ate the scales, and they don't intend to help them at all.
Seeing such a large movement in Yan'an Mansion, even King Fu, who was far away in Nanjing, was alarmed, and he saw that the peasant army was gathering on such a large scale on the border of Henan, and he was afraid that the disaster would flow eastward, so he hurriedly sent Yuan Chonghuan, who was shunned, to lead an army of 100,000 to prevent accidents.
With the addition of Yuan Chonghuan, a new player, the situation in Mizhi County, which was originally in danger, has become more lively.
As soon as the situation changed, Guan Shanyue immediately wrapped up the goods, he didn't listen to the dissuasion and took the initiative to attack, and took more than 2,000 soldiers of the Heavenly Wolf Battalion to set up a circle along the Wuding River, playing the enemy advance and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I advance, the enemy is stationed and disturbed, and the enemy is tired and I fight.
This set of tactics that has been proven in practice is particularly successful, they are stunned that they have wiped out more than 10,000 peasant troops in the movement, and it has become their world at night, who makes the peasant army invisible at night.
After a few days of guerrilla warfare like this, after connecting with the Divine Arrow Battalion and the Huben Battalion, Guan Shanyue did not even enter Mizhi County, so he led the troops to rush towards the Henan Mansion in Henan non-stop, and he wanted to give King Fu a big meeting gift.
The three forces chase after me, as soon as Guan Shanyue moves, the peasant army will follow, and as soon as the peasant army moves, Yuan Chonghuan will have to follow.
As soon as he entered Henan Mansion, Guan Shanyue, who revisited his hometown, was like a fish in water, he played the fine tradition of fighting and turning his head, and under his careful design, the peasant army finally got along with Yuan Chonghuan. And he took the opportunity to occupy the magpie's nest, occupied the county seat of Lingbao County, which could be attacked and defended, and played watching the tiger fight.
When Guan Shanyue's army was more than 20 miles away from the county seat of Lingbao County, the county commander of Lingbao County abandoned the city, and they did not commit any offense to the people in the city.
Guan Shanyue was so tired that she fell asleep in the county office soon after coming to Lingbao County. After waking up, he and Cao Bingzhang gathered around the warm charcoal basin and made a fire.
Cao Bingzhang yawned, glared at Guan Shanyue, and said angrily: "On that day, the saint wanted to kill Yuan Chonghuan, and none of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty objected, so you have to protect him." If you kill him, why don't you have so many troubles, but now it's good, En will take revenge. Let me say, you're doing it to yourself. ”
Guan Shanyue scratched her head embarrassedly and said with a smile: "Brother Cao, brother, I don't have front and back eyes, you really can't blame me for this." When I saved him, I didn't know that one day he would come to the opposite side of me. ”
At this moment, Zhang Xianzhong opened the curtain of the cotton door and walked in, bringing in a cold and biting air.
"How's the battle outside the city?" Guan Shanyue and Cao Bingde sat around the warm charcoal basin, and asked Zhang Xianzhong, who had just entered the door, without raising their eyelids.
Zhang Xianzhong took a breath of hot air at the frozen palm, and stretched out his hand to the charcoal basin, he had long been surprised by the things on the battlefield, and said casually: "It's the same as the first two days, the thunder is heavy and the rain is small. The people and thieves do not understand the cooperation. Yuan Chonghuan has the advantage in numbers, but his subordinates are all a group of straw bales, which seems to be a little ineffective, and the combat effectiveness is too poor. ”
Chen Ergou, who came in together, immediately glanced at his mouth, "My God, Zhang Baihu, you heard the sound of killing outside the door, and there were 40,000 people who died on this day!" It's almost to the point of bleeding and drifting, which is still called thunder and rain? ”
Zhang Xianzhong pursed his lips and said: "If you want to fight, you will have a good fight, how can you fight like adding oil, so that even if you fight for two more days, you will never win or lose, it's boring." ”
"Damn, I fell asleep and became like this, didn't I call me when I told you about the same?" Guan Shanyue tore off her mink coat and rushed out of the county office.
Standing at the top of the high city and looking at the dense patch, thousands of soldiers and horses collided one after another, like ants catching and fighting, the cold light of the weapons flickered into a piece under the sunlight, and the eyes of the people who shook hurt directly.
The decisive battle came much earlier than Zhang Xianzhong expected, and both sides were in a hurry, and no one wanted to retreat or dare to retreat, so they simply pressed all the troops up.
On the battlefield, people turned on their backs, and the situation changed abruptly.
Guan Shanyue's heart was about to jump out, and he gasped, he originally planned to incorporate a part of the peasant army, but it won't take long to fight like this, and he will be a fart if he can't beat it.
He was anxious, looking at the fewer and fewer peasant troops on the battlefield, and shouted loudly: "Spicy next door, don't sleep, don't sleep!" Li Dingguo, ready to send troops, ready to send troops, ready to send troops, hit me hard at Yuan Chonghuan's troops! ”
