Chapter 414: Grabbing Merit

Liu Liangzuo didn't expect Zhang Xianzhong to be defeated so quickly, and he was on his own side.

"General, the thieves are newly defeated, at this time, the army's heart is lost, and the people's hearts are panicking, but the whole army can attack it!" Liu Liangzuo's lieutenant Liang Zuo followed.

Liu Liangzuo was a little moved, thought about it but said: "There are still nearly 100,000 thieves, and it is when they are in a hurry to escape, they are almost in mourning. Our army is here to wait for work, and it is the best policy. ”

His meaning is to obtain the maximum victory with the least loss, but in fact, the subjective meaning is to preserve strength. Today's world is the king, and only with soldiers can there be status, and Zuo Liangyu is their role model.

However, what he said also has some truth, the rogues must have suffered serious losses in grain and baggage after they retreated, so they had to take the initiative to attack to open up a retreat.

Moreover, the rogues all know that they are guilty of capital crimes, and in order to seize their way of life, they must fight to the death, and fighting them at this time will cost them greater casualties.

Therefore, no matter how Feng Shuangli tried to attack, Liu Liangzuo just stood still and ordered a strict defense. The nearby highlands were occupied by Liu Liangzuo's department, Shaojiawan was surrounded by large and small lakes, and to the west was the wide Anhui River, which the Liukou had no boats to cross, so they could only force their way through these narrow lands.

Zhang Xianzhong moved 20 miles to Shaojiawan and continued to collect the rout, and by the next day he had gathered more than 15,000 soldiers, including more than 4,000 cavalry and nearly 100,000 hungry soldiers.

The more and more Liukou gathered, Liu Liangzuo became more nervous, and while ordering and guarding, he was also wondering why Zhang Xianzhong was so good at tidying up, what he was most looking forward to now was that the officers and soldiers behind Liukou would chase after him as soon as possible, and then there would be a better chance of winning in two strikes.

In fact, the reconnaissance platoon of the Tiance Army has always been behind Zhang Xianzhong, and they have always been observing Zhang Xianzhong's movements, in order not to be discovered by Zhang Xianzhong, the armored vehicles of the reconnaissance platoon are hidden in the bushes. Green plants provide a good camouflage for armored vehicles painted in camouflage.

The Tiance army did not want to kill them all, but to leave their manpower. It takes time to digest the captives, so the Tiance Army did not immediately catch up. If a regiment is sent to pursue them, the result is that these rogues scatter in a hurry and release the ducks.

Wang Yue's requirements for the Ming army are not high, he only needs the number of people, after all, the price has been opened.

The situation in Shaojiawan was reported by the reconnaissance platoon to the headquarters of the Tiance Army. The 50,000 hungry people from Shucheng have arrived at Chaling, and the 250,000 hungry people have begun to transfer to Changfengsha Port in Anqing in batches, and the first batch of hungry people has already set off. The security army was responsible for the whole process of the transfer work, and the Nanjing Beijing Battalion assigned a part of the Ming army to assist, and the fifth regiment moved to ensure the safety of the transfer.

After arranging the transfer of the hungry people, Wang Yue dispatched the fourth regiment to advance to Shaojiawan at this time, and they would cooperate with Liu Liangzuo's troops to launch an attack on Zhang Xianzhong.

The fourth regiment had just reached the halfway point, and the shouts of killing behind Liu Liangzuo in Shaojiawan were everywhere, and the shouting of killing was accompanied by a fire that rushed to the sky.

Zhang Xianzhong was overjoyed and hurriedly ordered the whole army to assault and kill the officers and troops near Shaojiawan.

Suddenly an enemy was killed behind him, and the Ming army panicked, seeing that Zhang Xianzhong led his men and horses to kill them. Before the rogues were killed, Liu Liangzuo immediately gave an order: Withdraw!

The 15,000 Ming army quickly retreated to the northeast, Zhang Xianzhong thought it would be a tragic battle, but he didn't expect a punch to be missed, and the Ming army ran away.

He just wants to run away now, and he is not in the mood to chase down the officers and soldiers. The two streams converged before and after Shaojiawan, Zhang Xianzhong soon saw Lao Huihui, and said excitedly: "Lao Huihui, you came too timely, otherwise we will die!" ”

"Dashuai!" Ma Yingshou clasped his fists and saluted: "After receiving your order, I immediately came with a team of three thousand horses, and it will take half a day for the infantry team to catch up." ”

Ma Yingshou's relationship with Zhang Xianzhong is closer than that of Hui Dengxiang, Liu Guoneng and others, and they are almost his subordinates.

Zhang Xianzhong hurriedly said: "It's good to come, it's good to come, immediately notify the infantry team behind, don't come to Shaojiawan, and return to Qianshan Tianwang Village as soon as possible." ”

Ma Yingshou had the opportunity to ask: "I heard that the big handsome was defeated, how about the loss!" ”

"Alas! It's hard to put into words. Zhang Xianzhong sighed and said, "Let's talk while walking." ”

The situation in Shaojiawan was clearly seen by the reconnaissance platoon of the Tiance Army, and they immediately reported it to the headquarters of the Tiance Army. Wang Yue ordered the Fourth Regiment Wang Hongwu to speed up and strive to eat Zhang Xianzhong.

The 4th Regiment advanced quickly, and after passing through Shaojiawan, it finally caught up with Zhang Xianzhong's tail near Qianshan County. At this time, Zhang Xianzhong was preparing to take Qianshan by the way to make up for the losses of this war.

After a not fierce battle, the Fourth Regiment intercepted more than 30,000 hungry people, and Zhang Xianzhong's main force fled into the mountains. The 4th Regiment then halted its advance and gathered the hungry near the buried hills. A large number of hungry people are the focus, and Zhang Xianzhong can only go with him temporarily.

Liu Liangzuo's scouts detected that Zhang Xianzhong had run away, so they led the army to follow, wanting to pick up some bargains.

As a result, as soon as the Tiance Army appeared, Zhang Xianzhong ran faster than a rabbit. So Liu Liangzuo immediately released the soldiers and horses to arrest the hungry people who had run away, these are all money. Not to mention, relying on the large number of people, they quickly arrested more than 2,000 people.

Where do people enjoy this? Most of the heads are in the hands of the Tiance Army.

"Hey, these captives are left behind, and we will keep them, and you can go elsewhere!" A staff general sat on a horse and waved his horsewhip at a group of Tiance troops who were watching the advance of the Liukou.

These days, there are at least three or four thousand rogues in the custody of the army, and the eyes of the Ming army are red, especially in addition to the prisoners, there are also a lot of property and livestock.

This general had more than 3,000 troops under his command, and the Tiance army that guarded the prisoners advancing was only about 100 people, and in his opinion, it was just a swarm of flies.

Grabbing credit is not uncommon in the Ming army, and it is the norm to suppress the small with the big, bully the small with the more, and even have conflicts.

The company commander who led the team was already vigilant about the approach of the Ming army, and when he heard this, he immediately ordered: "Order the prisoners to stop advancing and sit down in place." All ready to fight! ”

The soldiers shouted, "Stop!" Sit down! ”

"Stop moving! Sit down! ”

Then "Boom! "The soldiers who were already armed with guns aimed their rifles at these Ming troops, and the armored vehicle machine guns were also aimed at the same time, and the number of armored vehicles in a company was two, and at the same time, the company's four Type 85 heavy machine guns were also erected and aimed at the Ming army.

The Tiance Army had fought with the Ming Army, and their commander was now the Governor of Yingtian, no matter what point of view, their morale was not low.

Liu Liang Zuobu had never fought with the Tiance Army, so how could he know the power of these weapons. So being targeted by so many automatic weapons, not a single Ming army was afraid.
