Chapter 209: Defeated Soldiers
Boom, the sound of the ironclad crash, the curtain of the carriage was opened, and on both sides were neat queues, the guards battalion, the French veterans and the veterans of the Han Dynasty, the sound of the ironclad crash, and the flintlock pistols of the snow bayonets, with an indifferent killing atmosphere.
The team stopped suddenly, looking at Wang Heng on the side strangely, Xiangyi and the two walked out of the carriage, not knowing what was going on, the Wang Hezi sentinel team in the distance ran from afar, and shouted loudly: "There is a group of Ming troops in front of us who are approaching us"
Ming army? In the distance, a thin red line appeared on the plain, and from a distance, there were hundreds of officers and soldiers, all of whom were cavalry, with strong crossbow quivers and sabers on their horses, and there were many cavalrymen who used strong crossbows.
Some of them were still in disarray, some of them were still bloody, galloping fast on horses, some of them were still with clusters of arrows stuck in their backs, and they looked behind them from time to time, all of them looked terrified, and some of them had resentment on their faces, not knowing what had just happened.
The leader of the general, Xiao Chuan's strengthened eyesight can be seen clearly, young and handsome, with a bright light armor, covered in blood, and his handsome face is full of fear.
A group of cavalry also didn't expect to see their own people in front, so they rushed over, and saw that Xiaochuan and his group were only a little more than 1,000 people, although there were many auxiliary soldiers behind, but he could see at a glance that it was an auxiliary soldier.
The cavalry led by the leader had a look of loss on his face and said: "It's another way, alas, just such a little person, you have to tell him quickly not to go forward." ”
"Yes, the Ming army in the mainland is really a bunch of waste" On the side, the captain of his own soldiers had anger on his face, and said: "More than 20,000 people were defeated by 7,000 thieves, it's really ridiculous, and it also caused my Xuanda to be defeated together, alas! ‘
"That's right, in vain I Xuanda thousands of miles to help, but I didn't expect the mainland Ming army to be so combative, we have no skills to return to the sky" This is the handsome general who is headed by a trace of helplessness and said with a wry smile on his face, thinking that he is Xuanda thousands of miles to help, he led the army to fight, and the mainland Ming army of more than 20,000 people attacked Liu Guoneng Department together, the number is more than the other party, and there are more than 600 elite soldiers of his own, the weapons are more advanced than the other party, and the training is better than the other party, but when the war is only shaken on the left flank, it is a rout on the whole front, he doesn't understand, how can there be such a warless soldier, Obviously, the food and salary of the southern soldiers was higher than that of the northern soldiers, but they did not have the slightest combat effectiveness.
He sneered when he saw this array of Ming troops with bright armor and neat appearance, if he encountered this kind of elite a few days ago, he must have thought that he had encountered elite soldiers, but after the ridiculous fiasco in the morning, he understood that the southern soldiers had a group of embroidered pillows! How good is the armor? The war is still strained. He wanted to tell the group of generals about the situation in front of him, and retreated, he didn't want to see another Ming army defeated.
The army formation immediately dispersed, let him enter, the cavalry led by him immediately walked to the Chinese army, this group of more than 200 cavalry came to the Chinese army, that Lu Guanlong, seeing the other party's general was eighteen or nineteen years old, he was in disbelief, such a young man led the army, he was shocked, such a young man commanding the army, it is simply not taking the lives of the soldiers seriously, so young people have fought several battles and commanded the army, it is simply child's play. He was even more disdainful of the Southern Army in his heart, with indifference on his face, and said: "Lu Guanlong, the general manager of Xia Xuan, is not a brother, which one?" ”
"Qin Xiaochuan, the commander of the Qingzhou Wei in Shandong, was ordered to come to Jiangbei to block Jiangbei's invasion of the Heavenly Liu Guoneng Department!" Xiao Chuan said, looking at the young general, but he didn't expect that it was Xuanda's people.
"General Qin, you quickly lead your troops to the north, and Liu Guoneng needs at least five times as many troops to defeat it in the south! You guys hurry up and leave" Hearing that the other party received an order to snipe Liu Guoneng, he immediately reminded, with a trace of disdain in his tone, as if he looked down on the combat effectiveness of the Ming army in the mainland, and was afraid that five times the number of men and horses would not be able to defeat it, so the other party with such a little bit of people was afraid that he didn't know how powerful the other party was.
"Haha, you rout soldier still has the face to talk about us! Do you think we are as wasteful as you?" said Wang Haozi on the side, his tone full of disdain. "Five times, haha, my eldest brother's army beat him five by one!"
Hearing what the other party said, Lu Guanlong's heart was furious, he really lost and had nothing to say, he gritted his teeth and didn't speak, but the captain of his own soldiers on the side said angrily: "It's not that your mainland army is too wasteful, my Xuanda brother fought bloodily, but as a result, you southerners were suddenly defeated, causing my Xuanda brother to be defeated one after another, it's ridiculous!" ”
Xiaochuan was amused for a while, it turned out that he was pitted by his mainland teammates, but the Ming army in the mainland had no border army to fight, but they met a pig teammate, looked at Wang Heng on the side, he nodded, Xiaochuan said: "That's the general mainland army, hehe, we also have strong soldiers in the southern army, brother!" ”
"Let's see what it means to be elite, haha, how can we compare to the ordinary waste guards!" Wang Haozi grinned, showing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and his face was full of cold eyes.
Hearing the words that the other party looked down on, Lu Guanlong was shocked in his heart, how could this group of southern soldiers be so arrogant? Are they crazy? Hurriedly said: "General, the six thousand thieves in front, you can't beat this little force at all, hurry up and retreat, the front 20,000 people are defeated, I know that your department is elite, the thieves in front are fierce and abnormal, brothers, let's go, and only by dealing with them can we win by dealing with them together" He said, but found that Xiao Chuan ignored him at all, and discussed tactics with Wang Heng, his face was a little unnatural.
"Don't worry, brother, we don't care about the thief in front of us" Wang Haozi said with a smile on his face.
"Let's go, General, these people are looking for death, we don't need to die with them." The captain of his own soldiers on the side said, the expression on his face was very exciting, or he couldn't figure it out, he had encountered more of the Ming army who was afraid of death, and he wanted to laugh and be sad when he encountered this kind of stunned and self-conscious?
"Forget it, they are all brother troops, the people of the Ming Dynasty, how can I, Lu Guanlong, sit back and watch the defeat of friendly forces, can I help" Lu Guanlong shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "When the time comes, we will retreat" He looked at Xiaochuan Although this person is stupid and arrogant, just seeing that he has the courage to attack the thieves, this courage is worth his help.
The captain of the pro-soldiers on the side felt that this was all a superfluous move, in case this army was defeated, his remaining cavalry still had the possibility of destruction, he understood the character of his own general, and sighed helplessly, and said: "No! “
************
Under the blue sky, there was a desert, the deserted land was overgrown with weeds, the ground in the distance trembled, and a thin black line in the distance slowly thickened, it was the cavalry, the swarms of cavalry, and the cavalry was like a pouring flood that instantly covered the green grass. The earth trembled, and they rolled up the sky with smoke and dust.
Behind the 6,000 infantry in front, there are a group of foot soldiers with iron armor, the appearance of thousands of people, some of them are holding swords and cards, some are holding spears, and some are using bows and arrows, birds, most of them are tied with turbans on their heads, and more than 1,000 of them have eight-petal iron caps and helmets of the Ming army on their heads.
Further back are the carriages, like a river, out of sight, they are hungry soldiers, if the weapons in their hands are tattered, some are still holding kitchen knives, and the armor is even more none, all of them have yellow and thin faces, and there are their women and children on the side, tens of thousands of people, and they are also auxiliary soldiers or cannon fodder in the thief army.
******
The cavalry at the front, with turbans on their heads, sabers around their waists, and bows and arrows pinned to their backs, all had fierce faces on their faces.
The cavalry led by him was tall, with a strong bow behind his back, a horse lance in his hand, his face was full of horizontal meat, and he had a fierce beard.
The five leaders behind him, each with a horse bow pinned to his waist are all fierce, one of them has a long scar on his face, and he looks ugly, he looks like a beast from a distance, and he also carries a gun on his back, and said: "Big brother, just now the sentinel team came to report, and a team of Ming troops came in front."
"Ming Army?" The man headed by this man broke into a straight line in his eyes and said strangely: "That Ming army, when he saw me, he didn't run, it was Liu Zeqing!" ”
"No, they only have two thousand regular soldiers, and they are all auxiliaries behind them," Scarface said, with a strange look in his eyes.
Hahaa!!! The crowd laughed wildly and said, "Are they crazy, haha, they are crazy, 20,000 people have been defeated by me, and 2,000 people dare to come?" Haha, aren't you really afraid of death?"
"I see that they have a lot of food and grass, I'm afraid they have a lot of oil and water," said the scarred face on the side, he was the general position of the military division in the team, that is, the analysis.
"Not bad?" Liu Guoneng thought about it, felt a little uneasy in his heart, and thought about it again, but there were only two thousand people who were afraid of something, so he smiled and said, "Go, Scarface, you take two thousand horsemen and brothers to take it!" and then bring the 1,000 Ming troops just now, and 5,000 hungry people" He thought that this part of the Ming army saw that they had the courage not to escape, and they should have some strength, so they brought so many people.
All the leaders were shocked, and a black-faced man with a heavy hammer was surprised: "So many people, big brother, isn't this a waste of brothers' time?" It's too much fuss, two thousand Ming troops, five hundred elite cavalry is enough"
He commanded a total of 3,000 elite cavalry, 4,000 horsemen (mounted infantry), 10,000 foot thieves, 2,000 soldiers, 20,000 hungry soldiers, 40,000 women and children, it seems that it is not much to draw so many people, but the other party is only 2,000 people.
"No, I want to quickly eliminate this group of Ming troops, and there is also the Ming army Lu Xiangsheng Department behind!" He said, all of them had solemn faces on their faces, and it was obvious that Lu Xiangsheng's troops behind them were terrified.
