Chapter 70: True Yang Unites the Army
This sudden incident shocked the whole scene.
In the lobby, there are all important generals of Gao Junshan, and there are thirteen civil and military officers sitting in the hall: Cai Zhishan, Red Army Friend, Li Busi, Cao Wenzhao, He Renlong, Bai Wenxuan, Cao Bianjiao, Ma Jinzhong, Hui Dengxiang, Bai Lisha, Liu Hongru, Tian Wenju, Li Xin, etc.
Especially Bai Lisha, Liu Hongru, Tian Wenju, and Li Xin, they have never seen Gao Junshan use a neutrino pistol on the battlefield, today is the first time to witness it, and it happened in an instant, not with their own eyes, they really thought that the immortal used a big move to save Gao Junshan.
This Wang Xin is a native of Ningzhou, Shaanxi, in the early years of Chongzhen, he was taught by the old Gongsheng Lingbi, moved to Zhenyang Zhi County, and was killed by Gao Junshan because of his arrogant personality. After his death, he was presented to Guanglu Cheng by Zhu Youzhen.
Gao Junshan put away the neutrino pistol and said coldly to the guards: "Carry him away!" He sat back on the Taishi's chair without looking back.
After the body was carried away, there was a pool of blood on the ground, and no one sitting there dared to make a sound, Gao Junshan looked around: "Scared you, right?" This man is dead-headed, self-defeating, and he doesn't have to care about him. ”
Tian Wenju stood up and complimented: "King Qin is brave and great, this kind of clown also wants to get along with King Qin, so let him die like this is because King Qin is merciful, otherwise, it will be a thousand cuts to solve the hatred in his heart!" ”
Gao Junshan said solemnly: "This matter has passed like this, everyone must not go out and spread that I killed this magistrate, otherwise the military law will be engaged!" Next, please summarize the defeat of Ruyang. ”
The scene fell silent.
Bailisha was instructed to state: "The battle of Ruyang is the new battalion is responsible for the main attack, unfavorable, after asking for help, the Red Army friends went to help in the battle, as a result, the new battalion and the third brigade were surrounded, Qin Wang personally led the second and fourth brigades, broke through Xu Dingguo's defense line, and finally rescued the new battalion and the third brigade. However, our army suffered huge losses. First of all, the new barracks of 50,000 horses, in addition to the 20,000 recruits who had just joined and fled, more than 20,000 people were killed in the battle, and only seven or eight thousand people came back safely, and the deputy commander-in-chief Liu Xin died in the battle under the city of Ruyang; Second, the 3rd Brigade of the Red Army Friends also returned with only 3,000 men; In the end, although Cao Wenzhao and He Renlongbu, who were in charge of the rescue, broke Xu Dingguo, the battle damage was very large, and three of the ten stops were broken. ”
Gao Junshan was very angry: "Is this the result of our Tongbai training?" You gave me a good answer! An army of 100,000 and 54,000 men were given for this battle, do you think you have a lot of money on hand? ”
Thirteen generals did not dare to speak out.
Angry Gao Junshan patted the case a few times and said: "Lao Tzu is going to scold my mother today!" A general who doesn't cherish his soldiers is a muddy ball! It's a fucking muddy ball! He is not qualified to take my soldiers! Fucking himself pulled an ass of shit and asked someone else to wipe his ass for him! ”
Seeing such a situation, Cai Zhishan had to stand up and speak, otherwise, he didn't know what ugly words Gao Junshan would say.
"King Qin is angry, wait for me to say a few words." Cai Zhishan stood up, "Today is a summary meeting of the war situation, and we must present facts and reason." First of all, Ma Jinzhong made a serious mistake of underestimating the enemy, and when he attacked Ruyang for a long time, he did not judge the situation and make the decision to withdraw the army, but asked the king of Qin for help, misleading our army's judgment of the enemy; Secondly, the Red Army friends, as reinforcements, insisted that they were the main force, although they arrived at the city of Ruyang, they did not cooperate with Ma Jinzhong, and went their own way, so that they were divided and surrounded by the enemy. ”
Gao Junshan's mood calmed down a lot, he took Cai Zhishan's words, and said word by word: "I have decided to revoke the posts of Red Army Friends and Ma Jinzhong, and the military advisor Li Xin is jointly and severally liable and will remain in his post for inspection; Order: The number of the new barracks was revoked, the new barracks were merged into the Third Brigade, and He Renlong served as the chief soldier, and Hui Dengxiang performed well in the operation and was transferred to the deputy chief of the Third Brigade. ”
After speaking, Gao Junshan glanced at everyone, took a sip of tea from the teacup, and asked, "Do you have any objections?" ”
Who would dare to object?
Red Army friends hurriedly stood up and said: "Resolutely obey King Qin's ruling and wait for King Qin's handling." ”
Ma Jinzhong is not far behind: "I, Ma Jinzhong, am obedient and obey the ruling of King Qin." ”
Bailisha said: "You two have to reflect on your mistakes, the enemy is still tearing each other down, it's not that King Qin cherishes you, your head is not on the item for a long time." ”
Gao Junshan said: "I order, starting from today, between the brigades, except for the person in charge I designate, in case of emergency, the supreme commander will be in the order of one, two, three, four, that is to say, Cai Zhishan can command Cao Wenzhao, Cao Wenzhao can command He Renlong, and He Renlong can command Bai Wenxuan." Didn't you hear it all! ”
"Hear me clearly!"
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
"Obey!"
Cai Zhishan, Cao Wenzhao, He Renlong, and Bai Wenxuan each gave their own answers.
"It's good to understand." Gao Junshan moved on to the next topic, "In view of the fact that the cultural level of our army is generally low, I have decided to set up a supervisory position at the battalion level, with students from Chongwen Academy serving as supervisors. This is only an expedient measure, and in the future, it is necessary to set up a special supervision station, and combat units at all levels must have a supervisor to engage in propaganda and education work, and supervision is only subject to the control of the supervision center. ”
After that, Gao Junshan asked Liu Hongru to announce the list of young generals who had been promoted, and these young generals were all outstanding in the battle of Ruyang, including Chongwen's sons Zhou Shichen, Jiang Guorong and Liu Da, and Li Derong of the new barracks was also on the list.
Li Derong was promoted again because he killed five enemies by himself and became the general manager, while Zhou Shichen, Jiang Guorong and Liu Da were promoted to the general sentinel.
In the end, Tian Wenju gave a factual evaluation of the combat capability of the righteous army, he said: "Since the training of our army in Tongbai, the combat capability has been greatly improved, although the battle losses of our army are as high as 50,000, but there are 20,000 hungry people who have just joined, they have left the army without fighting, and they cannot be regarded as our battle losses, and the enemy has also lost 50,000 soldiers. If the factor of command error is eliminated, we and the officers and soldiers should be two-to-one, in other words, our soldiers are one against the other. This is the result of our Tongbai military training, which is an undeniable fact and the result of the hard work of all of you here. ”
Gao Junshan very much agreed with Tian Wenju's conclusion: "What Tian Junshi said is true, we must see the shortcomings as well as the achievements, and this will be more conducive to our future work." I hope that you will put down your ideological baggage, correct your mistakes, and unite as one. I'm done talking, adjournment! ”
After the meeting, Gao Junshan separately summoned the Red Army Friends, Ma Jinzhong, and Li Xin and gave them a lecture.
After this meeting, the troops had a short rest in Zhenyang, because Feng Shuangli heard the information from Ruyang, they also suffered heavy losses, and Lu Xiangsheng was constantly urging them to rescue Chuzhou, Chuzhou was in an emergency, and Zhang Xianzhong was besieging Chuzhou. In this way, this side of Gaojun Mountain is relatively safe.
The balance of fate is always inclined to Gao Junshan's side, whenever he encounters the Ming army's key encirclement and suppression, he is forgotten, but chasing Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, Gao Junshan thought, maybe it is because I crossed over.
Actually, Gao Junshan was wrong, because there was another Ming army secretly waiting for him.
In Zhenyang, Gao Junshan sent a work order to the civil and military generals according to the division of labor in Bozhou:
First, Cai Zhishan and Bailisha are responsible for army expansion, public security and taxation;
Second, the Red Army Friends and Liu Hongru were responsible for the inventory of the property of the state capital and the reception of the yamen and prisons;
Third, Cao Wenzhao and Tian Wenju are responsible for city defense;
Fourth, Bai Wenxuan, Sun Yuanhua, and Tian Fang were responsible for the reception and management of Zhenyang's cannons, gunpowder, weapons, and horses;
Fifth, Ma Jinzhong, Hui Dengxiang, and Li Xin were responsible for issuing notices to reassure the people and pacify the people.
Sixth, He Renlong and Li Busi are responsible for the management of children's soldiers.
Gao Junshan specifically pointed out that the Red Army Friends, Ma Jinzhong, and Li Xin should be guilty and make meritorious contributions.
On April 2 of the ninth year of Chongzhen (1636 AD), Gao Junshan led his troops to leave Zhenyang and continue to go south to the mall.
This road is a horse and a flat river, and it takes half a day to reach the Huai River in front of you.
The water of the Huai River is crystal clear and can be waded through.
After a short preparation on the north bank, the troops began to cross the river.
Tens of thousands of people crossed the river together, and the scene was particularly spectacular, but the grain and grass had to be crossed by boat, so after the large army crossed the river, they rested in several villages near the south bank and waited for all the grain and baggage to cross the river before continuing to move forward.
The work of crossing the river with grain baggage was in charge of the Red Army Friends and Liu Hongru, and Gao Junshan was stationed in a village called Lijiagou and waited for their arrival.
Lijiagou is not very big, at a glance, there are about forty or fifty households, there is a big pond in front of the village, there are women washing clothes in the pond, and children are playing in the water by the pond, they see that there is an army coming, panicked out of the pond and ran home.
Gao Junshan ordered the team to stop, and he and his wife Han Yuyan led Zhang Cong and Sun Kewang into the village on foot.
There is a road by the pond that enters the village, after the pond, you can see the entrance of the village, there is an old locust tree in front of the entrance of the village, the old locust tree has thick leaves and thick roots, it looks like a tree that is hundreds of years old, it guards the peace of the village like a guard.
The four of them walked past the old locust tree, and the two yellow dogs followed them and barked incessantly, but did not dare to get too close.
Every family in the village closed the door, they came to the door of a large family, the bronze nail of the Zhumen, two stone lions in front of the door, and when they looked up, they could see the big plaque of "Li Mansion" hanging on the door.
Zhang Cong stepped forward and knocked on the Zhu door, the door was opened by a young man in his twenties, with a sad face, he only opened the door a crack, Zhang Cong did not answer with him, he heard a hurried old woman's voice coming from the door: "Is Dr. Qi coming?" Hurry up and invite Dr. Qi in! ”
The young man opened the door halfway, and an old lady in her seventies with small feet squeezed out of the doorway, and when she saw that it was four strangers, she was very puzzled.
Gao Junshan hurriedly stepped forward to greet the old lady: "Old man, we are passing by here, are there any patients at home?" I just heard you say that you want to find Dr. Qi. ”
The old lady was very polite, she stood out of the threshold, and said with a smile: "All of you are guests, if you don't dislike it, you can come in and rest." My granddaughter-in-law is giving birth, no, I asked this useless grandson to wait for Dr. Qi at the door, and I didn't wait for a long time. ”
"Grandma, I don't think Doctor Qi can come." The young man muttered.
The old lady was angry: "You child, what nonsense are you talking about, your daughter-in-law is screaming in pain when she gives birth to a child, you are like no one else, and you also said that Dr. Qi is not coming, do you want to kill your daughter-in-law?" Do you want our old Li family to cut off their children and grandchildren? ”
