Chapter 614. Meet
The abnormal weather for many years, even the two Huai places near the south of the Yangtze River have been affected, the Jianghuai area with a dense river network, the small river ditches that flow endlessly have dried up a lot, and the dense reeds have dried up on the cracked mud soil, plus the two Huai is a large plain, the terrain is relatively low-lying and flat, just suitable for thousands of troops and horses to fight to the death.
Early in the morning, the neighing of war horses sounded at the bridgehead of Lizhuang Town, and more than a dozen cavalrymen with black cotton armor and bowled helmets emerged briskly from the reeds and appeared on the bridge at Zhuangzitou.
At this time, Zhuangzi is not good, everywhere is a dilapidated color, the door of every house is wide open, and the broken garbage cloth is thrown to the ground messily, which is also in line with the life of the people of Lizhuang Town, as soon as the Qing army entered the two Huai, Liu Liangzuo immediately raised his hands and surrendered, and even killed Huang Degong, the only resistance of the four towns in Jiangbei, with a secret arrow when he persuaded him to surrender.
In the battle of Daling River, he surrendered to the Qing army with Zu Dashou, and then fled back to Jinzhou, his younger brother Liu Liangchen has been a slave to the Eight Banners, subordinate to the Zhengbai Banner, but this time and space to the south is not the Qing army, but the Liao army that has a grudge against the Qing army, Liu Liangchen died in Mao Jue's liquidation in Shenyang, Liu Liangzuo is also considered to have a grudge against Mao Jue.
So the Xuzhou he guarded fell, and he didn't surrender, but fled all the way south, of course, it doesn't mean that he became a loyal minister of the Southern Ming Dynasty in this time and space, his troops burned and plundered all the way, and made a mess of the two Huai.
This cavalry was the outpost scout of the Liaozhen Army chasing and killing Liu Liangzuo's troops.
However, it is also to blame Liu Liangzuojun for being too hasty, once he was caught up, he did not even resist and surrendered directly on his knees, and there were hundreds of thousands of men and horses who surrendered to him and more than a dozen people, which made the always cautious Liaozhen scouts become a lot more arrogant, and only looked at the bridgehead of Lizhuang Town, and without more reconnaissance, they swaggered and kicked their horses into the Zhuangzi.
There is no information value here, the house was burned in half, and the fire and charcoal in the beams of the house were also cold at this time, according to experience, Liu Liangzuo's soldiers had to walk for at least half a day, and there was almost no danger, or there was no gain, but the scout order of the Dongjiang River must record the wind and land along the way, and they came in.
A few people turned their heads to look left and right, while using the charcoal pen in their hands to quickly record the main topographical features of the local area, but there are always some surprises in life, and then they walked to the Zhuangzi, and suddenly the same sound of horses' hooves sounded from the opposite side.
Dongjiang military law, capture an enemy reward of twenty taels of silver, although the scouts are dangerous, but they are also the fastest to make money in the Dongjiang army, listening to the sound of footsteps, there are still a lot of people, more than a dozen Liaozhen scouts suddenly became excited, pen and ink pockets, the flintlock pistol behind them to the hand, they are pumping the whip and hurrying over.
But the big locust tree in Zhuangzi turned the corner and pitted them, and the excitement on their faces had not faded, but they were dumbfounded when they turned Zhuangzi.
Person! It's all human! The cavalry in front carried the banner of Senran, followed closely by the infantry, some carried spears, some held tiger cards and carried demon swords, and there were people pushing cannons in the back, spreading outward from the center of Zhuangzi to see the head, it is estimated that there are no less than eighty or ninety thousand, and it is also possible to have more than 100,000.
A big banner with yellow characters hung majestically in the Chinese army, and a tiger with a whip in both hands walked in the forefront of the tiger and the tiger's horse.
Five thousand taels for generals, two hundred taels for officers, and twenty taels for the big soldiers, they will get rich at this price, but unfortunately, they will make a fortune with this amount!
Mao Jue's selection of soldiers is more similar to Qi Jiguang, he doesn't want to be a traitor in the market, and he loves simple peasant children the most, but the scouts are an exception, after all, the scouts need to bring the intelligence back, and they don't have to fight bravely.
The experience of this study saved these scouts, taking advantage of the fact that they were a little far away, the front cavalry commander pulled out the knife and hid it in the back butt pocket, and waved secretly to his subordinates, and the head saw people rushing out, and the oncoming Nanming army team suddenly surrounded him, seeing that more than 20 bows and arrows were murderously aimed at his head, and when a group of scout cavalry were in a cold sweat on his back, this cavalry commander had no backbone at all, turned over and dismounted, and suddenly knelt on the ground.
"God is pitiful, but the front is the brother of our Ming Army? We've got out! ”
"Mark the T-shaped battalion under the command of Lord Liu, the governor of Xuzhou, and ride a hundred households Feng Liumao, I don't know if my lord has ever seen my Lord Liu?"
The scouts had to be excited, and a group of Liaozhen cavalry also turned over and dismounted and knelt down, their faces were more sincere than the other, and don't look at Mao Jue's aggressive southward march to beat Liu Liangzuo first, but everyone was still under the banner of Daming, and they were wearing the same clothes, this Feng Liumao performed a performance, and really frightened these Nanming troops on the opposite side, waving his hand to separate the cavalry on both sides, the general with the iron whip turned around to meet them, glanced at them, and snorted disdainfully.
"Are you Liu Liangzuo's people?"
"Exactly!"
"What is the geometry of the hairy barbarians? Cavalry geometry? Where is it now? ”
"This adult, my Lord Liu......"
It's really a play, Feng Liumao looked taboo, shook his head hesitantly, but the general's personal guard on the side immediately yelled sternly, which scared him "trembling".
"Bold, this is the Duke of Yasukuni, Lord Huang Degong, the Governor of Luzhou, I don't answer truthfully if I ask you!"
"Ahh Be! Yes!"
A face was like a bitter gourd, and Feng Liumao drooped his head sadly.
"Back to my lord, I don't know how many soldiers and horses there are Mao Manzi, a few days ago they suddenly rushed to the bottom of Xuzhou City, the cannon crackled and bombarded the head, Lord Liu ordered a breakthrough, and the small ones were scattered!"
"Anyway, there are all Mao Barbarian soldiers behind him, and the little one escaped with great difficulty!"
Feng Liumao's words were useless, but he added a little bit of Huang Degong's belief, originally he looked down on Liu Liangzuo, who fought with two knives and robbed the people in a hurry, but now Liu Liangzuo was defeated by Mao Jue in one day, he looked down on Liu Liangzuo even more, and simply nodded to himself when he heard the words.
"Looks like it's just in time!"
"Take a few of them to Liu's camp!"
"Hey, Lord Huang, we are Lord Liu's soldiers and horses, you are so unruly!"
Feng Liumao was still shouting in the play, but Huang Degong had already gone back on his own, and at the same time loudly ordered to set up camp, and a few personal soldiers next to him raised their bows and arrows again.
"Let you go, less fucking nonsense!"
…………
In this era, the army was dark, and there were veterans bullying everywhere, and they were driven to a broken camp behind Li Zhuang, where almost hundreds of Ming soldiers in tattered clothes lazily roasted cold steamed buns around the fire, facing Feng Liumao and them, a fierce man wearing black armor, a bare head, and a scar on his left eye led a dozen guys who also tilted their shoulders and tilted their heads, and at first glance they were not good people.
"Which battalion are you? This rout camp is our Li Ye's house, if there is anything good, if you know each other, quickly take it out!"
"Break the barracks!"
Just now I thought why I was assigned to a Liu family camp, it turned out that Huang Degong gathered Liu Liangzuo's defeated troops and was ready to use them as cannon fodder, looking at Li Ye's smooth head, for a while, Feng Liumao and more than a dozen other scouts' eyes suddenly lit up.
It's really sending salted fish to the old cat's head! With a smile on his face, while holding it in his arms, Feng Liumao nodded with a smile on his face.
"Master Li! Thunder! It's like thunder! In the future, the brothers will beg for a living under Li Ye, you smoke, smoke!"
As soon as he heard the cigarette, he swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva in his throat, and without thinking about it, the bald head and a few of his subordinates leaned over, and in their eyes, Feng Liumao took out not a cigarette from his arms, but a fist the size of a sandbag.
Thump~
…………
More than ten miles away from Li Zhuang, the huge Liaodong army also set up the barracks, at this time it was already misty smoke, a large group of Liaozhen infantry around the stove gnawing cans, the recruits and veterans can be distinguished from their expressions, while pouring bamboo canned food into the pot, while the old Liaodong is directly disgusting, those new recruits in Beijing and Shandong, who have just experienced three months of devil training, are full of anticipation to stir up the horse spoon, Dayingkou, a team of scout troops are like hunters to drive back the captured Liu army rout back to hand back.
"Damn, this Feng Liumao is going to eat poop? Not coming back so late!"
The last time the scout was damaged was when he fought fiercely with the Manchu Eight Banners, he took this book and waited at the gate of the camp to scout staff officer He Baoguo is worried muttering.
But just as he was watching worriedly, the garrison on duty suddenly shouted nervously, and hundreds of black heads suddenly appeared near the camp, watching them zombies swaying and approaching, and with a whistle, the scouts who had just returned to the camp joined the defensive cavalry and surrounded them.
But when they got closer, these cavalrymen were laughing and laughing, hundreds of people each raised their hands high, a cigarette in their mouths, a standard surrender posture, and the bald man at the head had two black circles under his eyes, and two cigarettes were inserted in his nostrils like elephants, and his tears were full of tears.
Driving the defeated soldiers like a sheep in the back, Feng Liumao bared his teeth and showed off his fist at his boss.
"Chief, three hundred and nine prisoners are handed over, and another important military situation is offered!"
