Chapter 20 Ningde Hot Hands Officer Charging

The platoon commander was waiting for Ning De's order, pulled the rope in his hand violently, and waited for a few "long" seconds, when he saw a flash of fire in front of the city gate, and an earth-shattering sound of "boom" came from the same voice. A puff of smoke rose from the gates, and the earth shook.

Look at the city gate again, it has been blown away along with the hole in the city gate. More than two dozen people brought a little too much.

Ning De and the others were also blown by the shock wave of the explosion on their horses, and they couldn't help but sound: "How many ** did the little rabbit cubs put out, it's like it's too much." Then turning around and waving his hand, the kiln cavalry began to accelerate and rushed forward.

This camp has more than 2,000 people of Li Zicheng's Dashun army, and it is the largest camp on the south bank of the Yellow River. A few sheep and a cow were brought to them to-day, and although the commander of the camp was very angry at them crossing the river and stealing things, because he was really afraid of the retaliation of the kiln people on the other side of the river, he also tried to maintain good relations with the other side in the summer when the two banks were navigable. But this matter has already come out, and there is nothing to be done about anger, and the cattle and sheep sent cannot but eat, and the brothers have not eaten meat for a long time, and they are hungry enough. So I decided to finish it and talk about it. It's nothing to give more than 2,000 people a penny of these things, but at least you can still drink some broth.

Just as he was about to start the meal, everyone was attracted by the smell of boiled meat and came to the kitchen, the north gate was suddenly blown up into the sky with a "boom". Many people were knocked to the ground by the sound of the explosion, several pots of broth were also buckled to the ground, and many soldiers who were close to them were screaming from being burned, but no one in the vicinity could hear them, and their ears were so shocked that they could not hear them.

Before the officers and soldiers in the camp could come to their senses, a large group of cavalry rushed over from the smoke that had not dissipated, and these cavalry rushed to the other three city gates according to Ningde's distribution, but the automatic rifle in his hand was not idle along the way, constantly spewing tongues of fire, shooting at the soldiers of the Dashun Army in front of them. More than 1,500 soldiers of the Dashun army here were killed by barely organizing resistance, and five or six hundred very smart soldiers had already knelt on the ground and raised their hands in surrender, although the soldiers of the kiln gang were angered by the killing of more than 20 immigrants from the wilderness, but they also could not do anything to the soldiers who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

As a result, more than 1,500 people were killed and nearly 600 were taken prisoner.

Ningde hurriedly asked the captive where the guy who gave them cattle and sheep was, and one of the captives pointed to a dead body on the ground and said, That is. Ning De kicked in the past, and when he saw that this guy had been killed by a few bullets, he spit out, "It's cheap for you, otherwise Lao Tzu will have to skin you alive." ”

Ning De saw that the meat was still boiling in the kitchen pot, but it was a little less, so he ordered the dead horse meat to be boiled again. Let everyone eat meat. The captives were ordered to carry the dead bodies out of the city and throw them into the field.

The captives knew that they were going to feed the wolves, but they couldn't help it, and they didn't dare not do it.

The cavalry of the kiln gang had a good meal of meat here. What the captives didn't expect was that the kiln people would let them eat with them.

After eating, Ning De came to the two regiment commanders and said: "There is a large Dashun army camp to the west of this camp, since we have already done it, we should get rid of that hidden danger, otherwise they will always feel that it is a problem when they are there." Get rid of them, and we won't have to worry about dozens of other people, hundreds of people, small places. There are few of them, and they dare not take any action. ”

The two regiment commanders fought well, and of course he was willing to fight. One said: "Commander, it's too pleasant to come out to fight with you, you can do whatever you say!" ”

As he was talking, the sound of the cavalry galloping horses of the brigade was heard in the distance, and the three of them could only get up, Ning De said: "You return to the team and prepare for battle, first concentrate your firepower and block the gap at the north gate." ”

"Yes!" The two regiment commanders said yes and ran out.

The result was a false alarm, and it turned out that the two cavalry regiments that received them from the kiln gang had come over.

Ning De hurriedly continued to cook meat to entertain the two cavalry regiments. The commanders of the two cavalry regiments told Ning De that his family was very dissatisfied with his pursuit of the river without waiting for his family's consent, and asked him to send a telegram back to his family.

Ning De smiled and said: "The general is outside, and the king's order is not affected!" If I wait for a letter from home, I won't be able to come. Those tens of thousands of immigrants are watching me, how can I explain to them. Now turn on the radio, and I'll send a telegram home to reassure them. ”

Ningde reported his situation to the command center through the radio. Zhang Zhimu, Chen Yufeng, and Ouyang He didn't leave the command center, and after reading Ningde's telegram, Zhang Zhimu was relieved. However, Zhang Zhimu sent him a telegram back, and the telegram was just a few words: "This is not what you should do as a military commander!" ”

Ning De saw Zhang Zhimu's words, knew that Zhang Zhimu was angry, he knew that he was a little reckless, but Ning De did not regret it, he knew that this was what he had to do for the tens of thousands of immigrants as the leader of this side, otherwise he would not be able to win their trust.

However, Ouyang He's telegram back to him was much more specific, asking him to return to the north bank of the Yellow River as soon as possible. Because Li Zicheng will not allow them to threaten the safety of their Great Wall on the south bank, we are not yet ready to fight them.

Ning De telegraphed back and complained about the reason for taking another camp tomorrow, and Ouyang He asked him to dispose of it as appropriate.

Ning De knew that this was a great trust in him, and at the same time, he could see that Ouyang He did not mean to blame him.

The next day, Ningde had people pull the booty across the river and return to Baotou in a carriage. The captives were ready to be released.

But these captives knelt on the ground and said why they couldn't get up, they said that they would follow Ningde to open up the wasteland and farm the land, and give them food. Otherwise, they would still have to be soldiers for the Dashun Army when they went back, and they would never want to be soldiers again. They have long heard that as long as they are willing to contribute on the north bank of the Yellow River, they will have food, and they will divide the land and plant in the future. In the past, many homeless beggars had their own horses and carts, and the better days were ahead.

Ningde had no choice but to send someone to cross the river with these captives to make arrangements. He knew that these people still needed to be properly educated, and then they could be distributed to various places.

At the same time, the sensitive Ningde sent the situation back to the command center by telegram. Because this shows that the military spirit of the Dashun army is no longer stable.

However, when a few captives heard that Ningde was going to attack the camp on the west side, they said: "General Ning, we all know that you are on the north bank with your troops, so I don't think that camp will be beaten, and we will go over and tell them that they have all surrendered, and let them follow you to open up the wasteland and cultivate the land." Actually, the people you killed yesterday don't need to. If they knew you were coming, they would have surrendered. Everyone wants to cross the river and follow you to open up the wasteland and farm. ”

As soon as Ning De heard that there was such a good thing, he said: "Okay, you follow me, if you really tell them to surrender for me, I will reward you again." ”

Ning De thought to himself, if we don't surrender, we will attack it, this time the two later cavalry regiments were fully prepared, and they came out with all their staff, and they carried heavy machine guns and mortars. It is much easier to deal with such camps.

However, what Ning De didn't expect was that when they arrived at that camp, they didn't need to persuade them to surrender or attack, because all the people there had run out. There were only a few old horsemen left, and they said that they were old and had nowhere to go.

After asking these grooms, they found out that yesterday they knew that the camp in front of them had been breached by the Kiln Gangsters. It turned out that the camp was the center of all the Dashun troops in this area, and some of them were arriving there on business, and they were supposed to stay there last night, but they arrived a little late because the road was not easy to walk. Just as they were looking to the wind with their heads bowed and almost there, suddenly a loud explosion was heard in the direction of the camp in front of them, and immediately they saw smoke billowing out, followed by the sound of horses' hooves like a storm. They were all veterans for many years, and they all knew that this was the sound of the cavalry of the brigade, and these people broke out in a cold sweat, if they had arrived a little earlier, they would have been surrounded in that camp. Hearing another burst of gunfire from the camp in front of them, they knew that it was the Kiln Gang who had begun to attack. They were so frightened that they couldn't care about what they were tired of, so they hurriedly ran back to deliver a letter home.

The kiln people are easy not to move, and this move will not be completed with a camp. The head of this camp thought to himself, the millions of troops of the king of Chuang were defeated by the Yaogang people, and his thousands of people were still stuffed between their teeth. He knew in his heart that the kiln gang people would definitely call at dawn tomorrow, so they prepared enough dry food overnight and fled backwards before dawn.

As soon as Ning De saw that there was nothing left to bring with him in this camp, he said to the horsemen: "When they come back, you can pass a message to them, and if you cross the river to harass our people, we will wipe out this place next time." If you follow the rules, we'll be fine. You also spread the word that if you don't want to be a soldier, and if you want to go with me to cultivate the wasteland, you can cross the river to find me. Don't do anything like stealing chickens and dogs. ”

These horsemen understood that someone here had crossed the river to provoke the kiln people. I thought to myself, isn't this looking for my own death? People with such strong strength have not come to cause trouble, these people go to cause trouble, isn't there something wrong with these people?

However, when they heard that they could go and follow the land to cultivate the land, these horsemen would have to follow, and they said that they had served the horses all their lives and could go there to be horsemen. Ningde said, "Yes, but you have to bring my words to the back before you can pass." ”

The grooms hurriedly agreed.

Ningde took people back to Baotou and reported the situation here to the command center.

This news is very important to Chen Yufeng and Ouyang He. This shows that Li Zicheng's non-descendant elite combat effectiveness is already very poor, and there will be a large number of surrendered prisoners in future battles, which is something that needs to be seriously prepared, and a large number of prisoners of war is a favorable human resource, but it is also a very big problem to eat and use.

"It seems that Li Zicheng's Dashun army is already unstable, not to mention its combat effectiveness, and we will solve Shaanxi militarily very quickly, and it is even likely to be determined by the speed of our march." Chen Yufeng said.

"Yes! If we resolutely implement the strategy of opening up the net, Li Zicheng will be defeated very quickly in Shaanxi. Our question is how to minimize the damage that the war will do there. We can't let them know that we're paying extra attention to this, or we're reminding them of the destruction. Ouyang He said.

By March, the construction and production of the kiln have reached the first level. However, a problem is more prominent, the sanitation and air environment of the kiln are getting worse and worse. Because they don't know how many cars and horses will enter and leave the kiln every day, Huang Yukun and his sanitation team start to sweep the streets in the second half of the night every day, but it doesn't take until noon, and there is horse manure and dust everywhere. According to Zhang Zhimu's request, many trees were also planted on the side of the Yaogang road, but the leaves were all dusty and very ugly. For this matter, Zhang Zhimu organized a meeting, which invited Yan Boju, Lu Bingyi, Lu Chengxiang and Li Yunhe, plus Huang Yukun and their environmental sanitation management department.

After Zhang Zhimu finished talking about the problems to be solved at today's meeting, Yan Boju said: "This thing is not easy to do, we can't do without carriages now, so we still feel that the transportation capacity is not enough." There's no way we can't let the animals! You can't get a toilet for an animal like a human would. It's making people go to the toilet to, and it's going to take a lot of effort. ”

"This horse manure thing is easy to do, we have a limited time, and all livestock entering the kiln gang must bring a horse manure pocket in the future, and we set up a few more places to pour horse manure in various parts of the kiln. Everyone supervised together, and horses without horse manure pockets were not allowed to enter the kiln. There are fines for pulling horse manure on the ground. ”

Zhang Zhimu's suggestion made everyone feel funny, Li Yunhe said: "I didn't hear that every horse should be equipped with a horse manure bag." Hehe! ”

"What others haven't done, are we kiln gang people doing less?" Zhang Zhimu said resolutely, "If we don't implement this decision, we will live in a horse manure heap, and this matter will get more and more serious." There is also the problem of large dust that must be solved, and they have saved a lot of asphalt, and we will first asphalt the main road surface. Slowly, all the large and small roads of the kiln will be asphalted. It is really not enough, the path can be paved with stones, and in the future, all the exposed soil will be planted with flowers and trees. In addition, Li Yunhe, your factories must be inspected once, and all polluting emissions must be rectified. Otherwise, we will all get sick and it will be too late. ”

Lu Chengxiang said: "The director of the kiln will also expand the kiln and prepare for the large-scale production of enamel products. I think it's going to be built outside. Otherwise, they are big polluters. ”

"Not only are they going to build factories outside. Our calcium carbide factory, cylinder kiln, and glass factory must move the factory out of the kiln and rebuild it in the smelting field. The construction of new factories must take into account the problem of reducing pollution emissions, and we must not treat it after the pollution is finished. Don't pick up that old cylinder kiln. It's a memorable thing, so let's make it an attraction for everyone to visit. Fence them off. ”

Everyone can see that this time Zhang Zhimu is determined to deal with the problem of pollution. "Our sewage treatment plant also needs to be expanded, and we thought it was enough. Now it looks like it's about to get saturated. We can't wait until we don't have enough to build. If it weren't for this sewage treatment plant, our Xiaoling River would have become a stinky ditch long ago. ”

"That's it, we have more garbage to pick up from the Xiaoling River every day." Huang Yukun said, "There is no way, they just don't realize it, they just throw things into the river." ”

"Uncle Yan, you send the police to supervise this matter, and if you find anyone dumping garbage into the river, you will be arrested and severely punished. But we're going to get the word out about it. When the time comes, if you don't listen to the greeting, we won't be polite. Heavy penalties should be imposed on those who harm others and benefit themselves. Slowly, everyone will develop good habits. Zhang Zhimu knows that it will not work without formulating a strict system and strict governance.

While Zhang Zhimu was concerned about solving the problem of environmental pollution in Yaogang, Ouyang He also issued an order to all units, and all military officers of the regiment should go to Yaogang for a month of intensive study before 1 April.

Because these regimental military commanders are all newly promoted, most of them have received training as junior officers. Chen Yufeng and Ouyang He have always been unsure about whether they can command a regiment of troops well, and feel that they should be given some training to teach them about the capabilities of a regiment and the skills of independent combat on the scale of the regiment. In particular, after the squad is equipped with light machine guns in shifts and the air-cooled heavy machine guns are equipped with companies and platoons, it is necessary to concentrate on studying and discussing how to command and how to deploy them, both theoretically and practically.

Li Yan also wanted to wait for the completion of the study of these regimental military commanders and then conduct some training for the regimental and divisional political chiefs.

The reason why they are only starting training now is that these newly expanded teams have passed the run-in period, which allows the chief officer to spare time for training.

In this training, not only did Ouyang He personally give them a lecture, but Li Wei also came over to introduce them to the use of the 130 artillery.

The firing range of 130 guns of twenty-five kilometers simply stunned these regiment commanders. In the past, they knew that 130 artillery pieces had been developed, but they did not expect that this artillery could shoot 25 kilometers away, not only could it shoot so far, but it could also shoot with long-range accuracy and directly support their operations. They can also call the artillery directly for fire support through the radio. Especially after they saw the explosive power of the 130 guns, they felt that this thing was even more terrifying. They knew that with such artillery, no city could stop them. It can be said that confidence has increased by an order of magnitude.

Taking time out, Ouyang He also asked these regiment leaders to go to the Xiurong that was on trial voyage separately and follow the ship out for an actual investigation. This is also to open their eyes and increase their knowledge and sense of superiority.

Li Yunhe's automobile development has also progressed very rapidly, and Zhang Zhimu often finds time to go to the automobile development team to give them various suggestions.

On this day, Li Yunhe finally asked Zhang Zhimu to come over to see their car experiment. This is a big deal, Zhang Zhimu put down what he was doing and left.

Yang Yulin has already gone to work, and she has heard Zhang Zhimu talk about cars before, so he has to follow Zhang Zhimu to see the test of the car.

couldn't resist her, Zhang Zhimu had to take Yang Yulin to the courtyard of the automobile development team.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Zhang Zhimu saw Li Yunhe and a few people watching a car they had assembled in the courtyard. It is inaccurate to say that it is a car without a shell, and the diesel engine of the car is exposed on the so-called chassis of a car. The car has two seats in the driving position, and everything is exposed. The four wheels of the car are the rubber wheels of the steel-reed carriage.

Seeing Zhang Zhimu and Yang Yulin coming, those people and Li Yunhe all came around.

"How? Ready for a test drive? Zhang Zhimu asked Li Yunhe.

"I can go," Li Yunhe said, "otherwise how dare I love you." After charging the battery in a while, you can try it. When they were testing the car, they didn't know that the power supply of the charger had fallen off, and the battery was dead. ”

Zhang Zhimu saw that the battery was not in the car.
