Chapter 239: Easy

The drum beat three times in a hurry, and then began to beat rhythmically. The spearmen put their spears up, and each column of flags corrected the queue and began to move in unison towards the front.

It turned out that Chen Deaf's horse team was the strongest force under his command, and now it was their fastest running strength, and when the drums of the Dengzhou camp sounded, the frightened mob there and the horse team that had long been hiding far away seemed to be put into the oil pot with cold water, and it exploded immediately.

In addition to the 200 people who accompanied the guards, there were 1,200 loyal and loyal people who did not die in the charge just now, and they were desperately trying to maintain order there, but these horse teams were really a little too little to maintain order for so many people.

Wherever it could not be maintained, the mob threw down their weapons and ran away without their lives, which was the characteristic of the so-called peasant uprising in the early stage, and in the face of the truly organized imperial troops, they faced the fate of being slaughtered or scattered without any training.

This is also the Yellow Turban Uprising, which claimed to have hundreds of thousands of disciples, but was wiped out within a year under the encirclement and suppression of warlords in the Eastern Han Dynasty. At the beginning, Li Zicheng faced the border army and the strong troops in the provinces, and he lost more and won less, but later he just fought more, and gradually tempered the team, which is the strong army.

It is often described that when a strong army hits a weak army, it seems to be a hot knife cutting butter, there is no obstacle, it is directly all two paragraphs, but if you put it here to describe it, it is not appropriate. To be precise, it seems to be fanning the smoke with a pu fan, and when it goes down all of a sudden, it is a lot more refreshing in front of you.

In fact, the horse team used by Chen Deaf to charge was only more than 300 horses, but the remaining seven or eight hundred horses did not dare to take the test, and the square team slowly moved forward under the rhythm of the drums. The distance of about 200 paces in front of the square team was as if there was some inexplicable magic.

The mob of Chen Deaf in this range fled in panic, and Jiang Feng led the four hundred cavalry to follow the back of the square team, and saw that there was no resistance at all in front of him. He sighed boredly, and said to the soldier who was raising the flag behind him:

"The flag is forward, swinging up and down three times."

Cui Chenxing's prefect and the soldiers defending the city have not stopped cheering since Jiang Feng's troops appeared, although at the beginning, they found that the number of officers and soldiers was far less than the mob, and they were worried, but at the beginning of the battle, they were all excited.

In their eyes, the Dengzhou battalion can be said to be brave, and the officers in the city are also a little prepared to learn advanced experience, but when they saw Jiang Feng waving the banner up and down this time, they were all stunned, and one of them was quite puzzled and said:

"When the two armies fight against each other, the emphasis is on the immovability of the handsome flag, and if it swings like this, the morale of the army will be in chaos."

However, Jiang Feng's Dengzhou battalion never looked at the flag action, Jiang Feng thought simply, if the soldiers were looking at their handsome banners when they were fighting, except when they were charging ahead, they probably had to turn their heads to look, so how to face the enemy in front of them.

According to Jason's suggestion, it is best to use the sound of drums as a command, and of course this is also an enhanced version of the Chinese military drumming gold. Shuai Qi's actions have nothing to do with the movement of the army, but just want to give a signal to some people. When the banner was shaking, Jiang Feng and the four hundred cavalry were already slowly moving, first adjusting their pace in small steps, and then letting the horses run and charge.

Chen Deaf over there had already been frightened, and the combination of arquebuses and spearmen made him stunned for a long time, and when he regained his composure, the cavalry that looked at Jiang Feng in front of him had already rushed forward through the gap between the two squares.

In addition to the fleeing soldiers in front of him, there were only more than 200 cavalry left around him, and now he was really distracted, and hurriedly howled:

"Smell the knife, smell the knife, let's go quickly, remember to bring the gold and silver we caught."

He hadn't forgotten the horses carrying treasures around him until now, Wen Dao had been staring at the banner opposite, and after Jiang Feng's horse team rushed over with amazing momentum, he was not surprised or touched. It was the shouts of the deaf man beside him that made him react.

Wen Dao heard the shout of Chen Deaf, turned sideways on the horse and glanced at it with disgust, and suddenly raised his hand and shouted:

"Brethren, ...... quickly"

As for what is behind this sentence, Chen Deaf no longer knows what it is, because he was overturned and dismounted by a horse that suddenly jumped up, and he didn't know anything. Chen Deaf didn't even know what was going on around him, but his years of bandit life had trained his body quite well, and when the horse jumped up, his feet were already out of the stirrups.

The whole body curled up as much as possible, although it fell to the ground, but the injury was not great, and the whole body was sore, but Chen Deaf knew that this was not the time to cry out in pain, so he struggled to stand up, but saw that Wen Dao behind him led two hundred light horsemen and pack horses to gallop out towards the east.

Chen Deaf wanted to scold, but he heard the thunderous sound of hooves behind him, he was still on the battlefield, and he turned back in shock, Jiang Feng had already arrived in front of him first, and he could even see the sarcastic smile on the corner of Jiang Feng's mouth. In an instant, Chen Deaf had figured out everything.

However, he didn't have much chance to say these things, the long knife in Jiang Feng's hand slashed down like lightning, and suddenly Chen Deaf's head was separated, and the blood full of blood was unhindered, and it spurted out wildly.

The cavalry of the Dengzhou battalion did not pursue Wendao, who had already run far, but only cleared out the very few thieves on the battlefield who were still resisting, and some shouted there with fun:

"The bandit leader has already been beheaded by Commander Jiang, and the bandit leader has already been beheaded."

There were more and more people shouting this sentence, and gradually the people on the entire battlefield shouted at the top of their voices, and the soldiers and civilians in Rongyang City heard this, and there was a feeling of complete paralysis all over their bodies, and they couldn't help cheering. The soldiers and civilians in Rongyang City, who had been nervous for nearly a month, heard the cheers outside the city and the city, and they also knew in their hearts that they were finally saved.

"The general led the soldiers to win more with less, brave and invincible, and saved the soldiers and civilians of my city in Rongyang City, I really don't know how to repay this kindness, please accept my worship."

The cleaning of the battlefield, there are still many soldiers in Rongyang City, these things are done by them, naturally there is no need to do it in the Dengzhou camp, the prefect Cui Chenxing led the representatives of officials at all levels and gentry in the city to go out of the city to worship Xie Jiangfeng's rescue, such a great favor is indeed worthy of thanks.

The other party made such a gesture, Jiang Feng naturally led his officers and officials to make all kinds of formalistic modesty and generosity there, what maintenance of the state capital is a matter within Jiang's share, as long as the fathers and villagers in the city are safe, we are full of blood and nothing like that.

The food and various materials in the city are still quite abundant, and Jiang Feng is not worried about losing money in this battle. However, he noticed one thing, that is, the gate of Rongyang City was always half-covered, and it was not very open, although there were also a large number of guards in the city entering and leaving, but it was always not open.

"Since the thieves have already dispersed, why not open the city gate, it is more convenient for the soldiers in Rongyang City."

Jiang Feng really didn't understand, he just asked, but he didn't expect that as soon as these words came out, Cui Chenxing, the prefect who was full of gratitude in front of him, and the officials and gentry behind him all showed embarrassed expressions, and they didn't know how to speak, Jiang Feng was stunned, Cui Chenxing hesitated there for a while, and then he said:

"Rongyang is already in a state of decay, and there are many victims from all over the country, the general's soldiers are brave, so don't enter the city......"

This slurring sentence made Jiang Feng understand, it turned out that he was worried that his soldiers would harass civilians into the city for harm, but this was not a blind worry, in the chaotic season, the harm of officers and soldiers was even greater than that of bandits, the so-called "thieves are like combs, officials are like grates" This is not only applicable to the five dynasties and ten countries.

Jiang Feng's Dengzhou battalion is treated according to the personal soldiers and family members of other guards, and it is a strict military discipline, and it is not at all to look down on these small profits that go into the city to make trouble, but it is one thing not to do it, if there is no such mind, it is mistaken for so, and it is turned away.

Especially the person who was just rescued from the brink of life and death, Cui Chenxing over there looked at Jiang Feng's expression and hesitated, naturally thinking that Jiang Feng's heart was angry, and hurriedly whispered:

"General, this is also a helpless request from the lower officials, if there is any inconvenience in military resources, this government will definitely be good."

Jiang Feng looked back at the officers standing behind him, all of them had a resentful look on their faces, obviously quite unbalanced. Jiang Feng's heart was actually bursting with fire. The Dengzhou battalion camped in the nearby villages and towns last night and rested quite fully, and his abundant financial resources naturally did not mean that he lacked military resources, but this kind of mood made him really unbearable.

Suddenly, he thought of something, his stiff face gradually calmed down, and he said slowly:

"In that case, I'll let my military quartermaster make a list in a while, and I hope your Excellency will replenish it."

Cui Chenxing and the gentry behind him were worried, and after hearing this, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly agreed:

"This will be satisfied, please rest assured......"

Jiang Feng didn't speak, and strode directly towards his back, but he was thinking in his heart:

I don't know how much loyalty to the imperial court is left of the officers under him!!
