Chapter 667: The Tiger of the Two Huai
After all, the righteous army is not a regular army, even if it is a regular official army, the military discipline of the Ming Dynasty at this time is mostly very poor.
Linyi was broken by the righteous army, a bloodbath could not be avoided, the green battalion soldiers in the city were killed, the young men who helped the war were also slaughtered, and even the people in the city were killed a lot.
When Xie moved into the city, the soldiers had already begun to clean up, but what caught his eyes was still bloodstains and piles of corpses, and he walked to the prefect's yamen step by step.
Zhao Shuxiang, who was traveling with him, frowned slightly, he had reminded Xie Qian to pay attention to military discipline, otherwise it would be difficult to achieve a big thing, but Xie Qian had his thoughts, he was now a rogue, how could he still call for military discipline, how to maintain a team of hundreds of thousands of people without relying on killing, plundering and looting.
However, looking at the corpses all over the city, Xie Qian also had some sense of blame, leaving some young and strong people not to kill, in the future, as a precursor, to replenish the army, it is also good, and now kill them all, it is indeed a little inappropriate.
When he came to the mansion, Xie Qian summoned all the people to meet him.
"Marshal, all the enemy troops in the city have been given heads, and Yi Yonggui's house was also killed." Ding Keze's armor was stained with blood, and he reported loudly when he entered the lobby.
A group of generals behind him followed in, and one of them clasped his fists and reported: "Commander, the ordnance, grain and grass in the city have been sealed, and there is no specific amount for the time being." ”
Xie Qian listened, nodded, and ordered: "Let the brothers eat a full meal first, and then gather all the mules and horses in the city, and take away the food and ordnance in the city if they can, and burn them all if they can't take them away." ”
"Yes!" Several generals clasped their fists in unison.
Ding Keze suddenly asked, "Dashuai, how many days will we stay?" ”
Xie Qian glanced at Zhao Shuxiang, who hurriedly said, "Dashuai, the sooner you go, the better!" ”
Xie Qian nodded when he heard this, and did not hesitate, "Just listen to the words of the military advisor, and we will leave tomorrow." ”
The rebels only rested for one night, and the next day they began to pack up, and all the people in Linyi were driven out of the city, and the grain in the city was looted, loaded into donkey carts, and carts went south.
After the main force was far away, Ding Keze led more than 1,000 soldiers, lit torches, and began to light fires everywhere, and the corpses piled up in yesterday's battle were also burned, and billowing smoke rose into the sky.
More than thirty miles away from Linyi City, a yellow-armored cavalry was galloping on the road, and suddenly the leader of the general grabbed the reins, and the entire cavalry team also stopped, looking extremely elite.
The war horse and the people above were all angry, and a Jia Lazhangjing stepped forward and asked, "Gushan, what's wrong?" ”
The war horse of Heluohui turned, he pulled the reins, stabilized the horse, and then pointed to the south with a horsewhip, and asked in a white voice: "Is that direction Linyi?" ”
Hearing this, Jia Lazhangjing straightened his helmet with one hand, looked up, and saw smoke and dust billowing from the south, and his face was suddenly shocked, "This is?" ”
He Luohui sighed slightly, "We're late." ”
Jia Lazhangjing asked again: "Gushan, then should we continue to chase, or wait for the soldiers and horses of Governor Ma to arrive." ”
He Luohui looked at the smoke and dust, groaned for a while, waved his horsewhip, and said loudly: "Chase, it shouldn't have gone far." ”
On the plains in the north, the cavalry was fearless, and although Heluohui only had 3,000 cavalry, he dared to challenge 300,000 Gaoyuan thieves.
Xie Qian was very lucky to have made the decision to leave immediately, if he was a day late, he would have been blocked in the city by Heluohui.
Since the change of Haoge, the ministers of the two yellow flags such as Ao Bai and Sonny have followed Haoge to Guanzhong with some people, and the strength of the two yellow flags has been greatly damaged, and the rest of the people will inevitably be shaken.
Three thousand yellow-armored cavalry galloped all the way to the outside of Linyi County, and there were still fires flickering in the city, but Xie Qian's team had been gone for a long time.
Heluohui left the brigade and rushed forward with the cavalry, originally wanting to get supplies in Linyi, but now it is impossible, Xie Qian not only burned the city cleanly, but the villages outside the city were also burned.
At this time, if you want to get supplies, you can only wait for Ma Guanghui behind, or go to a farther village to collect food, but Heluo will choose to continue the pursuit while there is still some food and grass.
The yellow-armored cavalry followed the mark left by the righteous army, and chased after the righteous army a day later, Xie Qian's report, and immediately walked forward with mules and horses and food, leaving behind a large number of people who came to him.
Huangjia Eight Banners dispersed the displaced people, and chased for more than forty miles, Heluohui had to stop, there was no supply, even if people could endure hunger, war horses could not endure it.
At this time, Xie Qian, who got rid of the pursuit of the Qing army, had scattered more than 300,000 people to only more than 100,000 people, but his main force had no losses, and the men and horses had broken through several county towns, and they would soon be replenished.
100,000 Gaoyuan thieves, except for Fucheng that can resist slightly, other large and small counties can basically be broken with one attack.
The rebels soon took Tancheng, rested here for a while, and then went south again, still burning all along the way, and in order to increase the difficulty of the Qing army's pursuit, the rebels began to divide into three units after breaking through Xinyi.
Although the Eight Banners are good at mobile warfare, the deployment of the two Huai Qing soldiers is weak, and the Qing court is here to be the green battalion infantry, and the righteous army comes and goes without a trace, dragging the Qing army who came to crusade exhausted.
Ma Guanghui, who followed behind, led more than 30,000 green camps, how depressed and depressed they were, and the place where the Gaoyuan thieves passed was in ruins, not only could they not get food and grass supplies, but also had to settle the homeless people to prevent the homeless from turning into thieves.
Ma Guanghui has no achievements, he is basically waiting for grain and grass, and in the cycle of grain and grass coming and not being able to catch up, Heluo will win a few battles, but he also broke his leg.
Within a few months, the Manchu Qing suffered heavy losses, the total army died three or four, Suqian, Haizhou, Shuyang, Xiangshui, and Guannan were successively attacked by the righteous army, and the land of Huaibei was stirred into a mess, and Xie Qian was called "the tiger of the two Huai".
With the destruction of the local area by the rebel army, there were hundreds of thousands of displaced people in Huaibei, and in order to survive, these displaced people also began to attack the city and plunder the land, loot the grain, and slowly formed a chain reaction, and gradually spread to Huainan and Henan.
Dolgon, who was far away in Beijing, received the report, which can be regarded as experiencing Chongzhen's distress, he had to issue an order to reprimand Ma Guanghui and remove him from the position of governor of the three provinces, and on the other hand, let his brother Duoduo once again command the army, and fell to the Mongolian Eight Banners to form an army of thieves, and drove to Lianghuai in a mighty way, took over the command, and came to exterminate the Xie Qian group.
