Chapter 226: Competing for Merit

readx;?? Early the next morning, the sky was full of fog, and no one could be seen four or five meters away. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the risk of exploding, the gunner stuffed the shells into the bore and fired them into the distance.

By noon, the fog gradually dissipated, and it was clearly visible in the distance, in order to break through the cottage in the distance, the regiments involved in tackling the fortified positions also launched their own Franc machine guns, so that the guns and cannons in front of them were loud, and the whole gate fell into a scourge.

In the firelight, under the cover of birds, bows and arrows, Chen Yingzong led his soldiers to carry the ladder to the pass one by one, ready to attack the dangerous pass.

In order to prevent the counterattack of the people and horses on the border, the soldiers Ding Duo wore two layers of armor, held a huge shield in front of him, and continued to rush up along the ladder.

Hauge stood in front of the pass in full armor, strictly ordering the 5,000 green battalion soldiers and horses around him to guard the dangerous pass, and behind him, Bellenikan and Dingyuan general Heluohui led 1,000 Manchurian iron cavalry and 1,000 Mongolian iron cavalry, as well as the 5,000 remnants of Li Guoying, who had just retreated to Baizhang Pass.

After the defeat of the Great Western Army, Li Guoying and Dingyuan General Heluo Hui led their troops to pursue the remnants of the Great Western Army, and after chasing into the territory of Tongchuan Prefecture, they were intercepted by the local militia group, and fought for more than 20 days.

Seeing that the county seat of PX was in sight, after suddenly hearing the news of the fiasco of the main force of the Manchu Qing Dynasty under Haoge, they were shocked, Li Guoying and Heluohui led their troops to retreat all the way north, and there were many deserters along the way, so the soldiers and horses of the green battalion were only half of the original, but now the soldiers are so tired that it is difficult to fight for a long time.

In order to cheer everyone up, Haoge told everyone that the general soldier Zhao Ronggui has led his troops to capture Long'an Mansion, and is now leading 5,000 soldiers and horses to gallop to the aid of the starry night.

However, after successive defeats, the morale of the Green Battalion soldiers was extremely low, and now seeing that the Loyal and Righteous Army not only had Fran machine guns, but also red-coated cannons, the whole army was quite frightened.

During the conversation, a flowering bomb flew over the top of the head and fell behind it, and an explosion occurred in the Eight Banners Array, and the projectile flew sideways within four or five meters, killing and injuring four or five people in a moment.

One person was panicked, but everyone was even more afraid of Haoge's brutality, and just now he killed three small flags, looking at the bloody heads, and everyone was so shocked that they didn't dare to come out.

Mechanically threw the stones down, although there were many casualties, but the loyal army had no intention of stopping, one fell, and the other rushed up to fill the gap.

Seeing that the pass was so difficult to attack, Qian Bangqi, the supervisor next to him, couldn't bear to say: "My lord, this Baizhang Pass is a famous and dangerous pass in northern Sichuan, if it is such a hard attack regardless of casualties, there will be a lot of casualties at that time."

Since the adults have set up a series of plans, why not postpone the attack on the mountain, so that such an effect can be achieved. ”

Yang Xuan said with a smile: "In the face of absolute strength, any strategy is pale and powerless.

I've made a series of plans, but it's just to add protection to win. ”

Qian Bangxin thought for a while, looked at Chen Yingzong, who was trying to lead the crowd to attack the mountain, and said, "My lord, why don't you tell General Chen about the plan first, so that he can be mentally prepared."

It's good that the adults are so desperate to conquer such a dangerous pass within two days in public. ”

Yang Xuan shook his head, picked up the binoculars and looked into the distance, on the mountain road three miles away, about five hundred people were climbing along the mountain road, preparing to attack the Qing army guarding the pass from behind.

Whether it can be achieved by closing the door and beating the dog, the key is in this battle, as the saying goes, to win with righteousness and oddity, in order to ensure the victory of this battle, Yang Xuan can be said to have made a heavy bet.

The experience of his previous life told him that there was a sheep intestine trail to sneak into the back mountain at any dangerous pass, and before and after arriving at Baizhang Pass, Yang Xuan sent people to look for the surrounding woodcutters, so as to find such a sheep intestine trail.

In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Yang Xuan sent his own guard chief Niu Dayong to lead more than 500 people to take advantage of the fog as a cover to secretly sneak into the back mountain last night, and now he is relying on iron hooks and ropes to climb the back mountain, preparing to launch a counterattack against the green camp.

Niu Dayong suddenly led his troops to kill, and Haoge, who was directing the battle in front, was shocked, and just sent Belenikan to lead more than 500 cavalry to bomb the pressure, when suddenly there was a burst of cheers in front of the pass.

It was rumored that the general soldier Zhao Ronggui had already returned to the loyal and righteous army, and now he was leading his troops and horses to attack Yangping Pass, so as to cut off the return route of the Manchu Dynasty.

Haoge didn't believe it at first, since entering Sichuan, Liu Jinzhong and Zhao Ronggui took the lead in leading the soldiers and horses to return to the Qing Dynasty, and five days ago there was good news, Zhao Ronggui captured Long'an Mansion in one fell swoop, and killed Zhu Hualong, the deputy general of the Ming Dynasty who had a grudge against him, so how could he surrender to the Manchu Dynasty?

Haoge's disbelief does not mean that his soldiers do not believe it, especially when they see that the back mountain is occupied and the loyal army suddenly increases its troops to the front line, everyone does not dare to have the slightest doubt.

The army's heart was unstable, and the loyal and righteous army seized the opportunity, only to see a few soldiers attacking the city with a few wooden tables, and throwing the burning earth-shattering thunder on the wall buttress at a distance of five or six meters from the wall battlement, taking advantage of the aftermath of the explosion, several soldiers jumped up one after another, and then waved the treasure knife in their hands and slashed wildly.

Under the supervision of the small flag commander, a few soldiers surrounded and prepared to fight, and suddenly there were still a few earth-shattering thunders below again, and everyone's momentum was frustrated, and some even retreated back.

The Manchurian soldier who supervised the battle behind was furious, brandishing a big knife and preparing to slash at a soldier, but the soldier was frightened and roared angrily as he ran: "Brothers, we are all Han Chinese, how can we be willing to help the Tartars die?"

Brothers, Yang Xuan treats the soldiers and brothers well, everyone is loyal to the righteous army, and it is better to farm than to work for the Tartars. ”

Seeing that the loyal and righteous army is about to attack the gate, some people were forced to be forced by the generals to shave into a rat's tail and become a green battalion, and some people feel that the general trend has gone and hope that the battlefield uprising will survive, although everyone has different purposes, but now seeing the loyal and righteous army jumping into the gate one by one, they don't want to fight hard, and in the sound of surrendering their guns, everyone has raised their hands and raised their hands to surrender.

The defeat was like a mountain, Haoge had no choice but to lead the troops to retreat to Hanzhong, after a day of fierce fighting, the loyal army occupied the dangerous Baizhang Pass.

Yesterday the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, today's first day of the new year, the beginning of the new year did not expect to win such a dangerous pass, everyone seemed quite happy, and also ordered a big reward for the three armies, in addition to sending guards to the surroundings, everyone crowded in the big tent to drink wine and eat meat.

Chen Yingzong, the guerrilla general of the Second Regiment covered in blood, was different, and the whole person looked quite annoyed, sat down, drank a few glasses and stood up and said: "My lord, the last general has followed the adult for four years, and he thinks that he is still loyal.

But this time, on the one hand, the lord strictly ordered the last general to attack Baizhang Pass, and on the other hand, he let the escort brigade attack it as a surprise soldier. ”

Yang Xuan's face was gloomy, and he looked at Chen Yingzong and said, "Merit, why do you only think about merit?"

The second regiment rushed to seize the gate head-on, of course, a great achievement, and the surprise attack of the escort brigade certainly also had a credit.

Why do you think only about this little credit?

Now that the Manchu Tartars have entered the Central Plains, there will be many opportunities for everyone to make meritorious contributions in the future, as long as everyone works hard, this achievement will be a trivial matter for everyone in the future, why are we so careful today? ”

Chen Yingzong's face was ruddy, and he argued: "My lord, I have been following my lord for more than four years, and my lord loves my humble position quite much, and many times I make my humble position stand alone.

However, the brothers of the Second Regiment talked one by one, and everyone lamented that if everyone had played with their lives as they did later at the beginning of the war, they would have been able to take the credit and make up for the regret of not participating in the Battle of Shunqing."

Yang Xuan smiled: "I love to listen to this sentence, go into battle to fight, when you should play with your life, you have to play with your life, just like this time I played with you in order to attack Baizhang Pass, and gave you a death order, which made people really worried for a few days."

But don't be stingy, think about your own merits all day long.

I don't dare to say that it is absolutely fair here, but as long as everyone has the courage to do things, there are more opportunities to make meritorious contributions, so how can everyone still care about some credit? ”

When Chen Yingzong heard this, he was so frightened that he knelt down and confessed his guilt.

Yang Xuan helped him up and sighed: "Brother Chen, you were President Bai when I first joined the army, and the relationship between you and me in Wang Chaoyang's department was also very good that day.

I know that the old brothers have been neglected a little bit in the past few years, but our team must be expanded, and we will always have a lot of brave people to participate.

I saw the new person laughing, and the old man crying. small table

An old brother sometimes complains a little, and I understand.

But in order to have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, of course I will not forget my old brother. ”

When Chen Yingzong heard this, he kowtowed again and again to admit his mistake, and when the time came, he actually cried loudly.

Yang Xuan knew his inner feelings, when he had just led the troops into battle, his strength was similar to his own, and he would be alone in every battle, and now he saw others who had made meritorious contributions, and his inner loss could be imagined.

Yang Xuan from modern times thought so, but others didn't, especially Chen Yingzong was so shocked that he kowtowed again and again to admit his mistake, which caused Yang Xuan to continue to comfort him.
