Chapter 557: Heaven Gives to Take
At the south gate of Yuncheng, Gao Yihuan rode a horse, surrounded by the generals of the brigade, ready to enter the city.
Outside the city gate, nearly a thousand Qing soldiers were escorted out by the defenders, and they lined up to cut off their heads one by one.
People are a very strange thing, once they lose their will and hope, they are more obedient than pigs, and more than a thousand Qing troops are so obediently lined up by themselves, waiting to be beheaded.
Yuncheng was not surrendered, it was a city brought by the Wei Wu army, and Gao Yihuan was also quite murderous to the Qing army that dared to resist.
Many of the Shun troops who participated in the siege this time died, and the people responsible for the beheading were also the soldiers of the Shun army, and many generals even took charge of the swords.
Gao Yihuan rode to the city gate, his eyes slanted to the side of the city gate, and he just saw Hao Shaoqi raise a big knife and cut off the head of a red-armored soldier. As soon as he stabbed down, the whole head of the Qing soldier fell to the ground, his neck was neatly cut, and the blood shot out for a while, and the headless corpse fell forward.
"Coming!" After cutting off a head, Hao Shaoqi was not happy, beckoned his subordinates to push up another Qing army, and then cut it down with another knife.
For a while, the heads of people outside the city were rolling, and the red blood gathered into a stream, and the blood bubbled and gathered together, which was shocking.
Hao Shaoqi cut very freely, and today he really found out that the Qing army was the same, and there was no difference between others when they were killed.
In the year of Jiashen, the Qing army entered the customs, the battle of Jizhou, the Shun army was defeated, and then fled from Beijing to Taiyuan, and then fled from Taiyuan to Xi'an, and finally was completely defeated by the Qing army in Guanzhong.
In Taiyuan, in northern Shaanxi, the defeated soldiers of the Shun army knelt on the ground in this way and let the Tartars slaughter, one by one.
More than 7,000 Shun troops in Tongguan, as well as Wushan Boma Shiyao, were killed by the Qing army at one time, and these Hao Shaoqi and Shun army soldiers all know.
These things pressed on the hearts of the remnants of the Shun army, making them have nowhere to vent, and even doubt themselves, feeling that they were inferior to the Tartars, and they couldn't beat the Tartars at all. That kind of desperation made many people give up resistance, and thousands of people were slaughtered.
Now they found that the defeat of the Tartars was also a virtue, and everyone was the same.
Gao Yihuan glanced at it, then looked ahead, hit his horse into the city, and ordered: "Huchen, hurry up and organize people to repair the city, and then notify Hu Cao to transport a batch of grain and grass materials into the city." ”
Jin Shenghuan nodded, "Don't worry, the humble position has already been repaired!"
Gao Yihuan bowed slightly, and suddenly asked, "By the way, has there been any news in Hanzhong in the past few days?" ”
Fang Jiayu arched his hand and said: "General Zhou sent back the news, Zhang Xianzhong and Wu Sangui fought fiercely for many days, Wu Sangui was fine, Zhang Xianzhong had many people, and the two sides barely fought a draw. Now the Western Army and Wu Sangui are still fighting in the area of Fengxian and Wudu Mountain. ”
Gao Yihuan frowned, "Why did you still fight from Dasanguan to Wudu Mountain?" ”
Fang Jiayu said: "Wu Sangui's Guan Ning Army, after all, was the most elite man in the Ming Dynasty, and he has more than ten years of experience in battle formations. Although Zhang Xianzhong has many soldiers, most of them have only been pulled up in recent years, so naturally there is still a gap. ”
Saying that, Fang Jiayu arched his hand, "Dashuai, General Zhou sent a letter, saying that Zhang Xianzhong wants Dashuai to provide a batch of firearms, and the price is easy to discuss!" ”
Gao Yihuan couldn't help but groan, and at this moment, Chen Mingxia rode over, "Dashuai, a letter from Jiangnan!" ”
"Oh?" Gao Yihuan hurriedly took it, looked at it quickly, and then turned over the letter paper and read it again carefully.
Suddenly, Gao Yi smiled, turned his head to Fang Jiayu and said: "Zhang Xianzhong wants firearms, so he said that Ben Shuai is going to fight a decisive battle with the main force of the Qing army in eastern Henan, and the firearms consume a huge amount of firearms, so he can't take them out for the time being." ”
There are still some firearms in the warehouse, there are too many, and there are really none, but if you squeeze it, you can always take out some.
As soon as Fang Jiayu's eyes moved, he noticed something, and suddenly asked, "Marshal, do you want to inform General Zhou that they will come back first." ”
Gao Yihuan glanced at him and said lightly: "It's not time yet, wait a few more days!" ”
"Marshal, what is written in the letter?" Jin Shenghuan on the side asked.
Gao Yi said with a smile: "Cheng Xun wrote that the war in Jiangbei was fierce, and the Ming army and the Tartars were killed and wounded countless times. Now in the entire Jiangbei war situation, the Tartars still have the advantage and are the attacking side, but the Ming army is powerful, plus reinforcements and volunteers from all over the country rushed to reinforce, temporarily holding the Yangzhou line. ”
Jin Shenghuan immediately understood why Gao Yihuan's attitude towards Zhang Xianzhong had changed, and said in a deep voice: "What if the marshal is preparing to attack Guanzhong?" ”
"The gains and losses of the Yangzhou front line are very important, and now that the Ming army has barely withstood it, the commander does not have to worry about the collapse of Nanjing for the time being. Duoduo waited for Ben Shuai to save Nanjing, and put on a posture to fight with Ben Shuai, but Ben Shuai was not as he wanted. Gao Yihuan waved his hand and said: "Send the order down, convene the generals to discuss the matter, and summon Wu Shizhao from Xuzhou back." ”
After speaking, Gao Yihuan clamped the horse's belly and entered the Yuncheng County Ya with everyone.
Gao Yihuan regarded the Yamen Hall as a temporary festival hall, and the audience first reported that he had been captured, except for the Qing army, all the other gains were actually lackluster.
When the Wei Wujun abandoned Yuncheng, there were not a few cannons in the city, and after the Qing army occupied Yuncheng, they did not put too many things in the city.
Gao Yihuan also understands this, Duoduo's plan is to lure him to the East Henan Plain and then annihilate him.
If the Qing army heavily guarded Yuncheng, Gao Yihuan would definitely not dare to move. Therefore, for the Qing army, Yuncheng is a chicken rib.
At dusk the next day, Wu Shizhao rushed to Yuncheng, and the generals gathered in the temporary festival hall.
Gao Yihuan stood in front of a huge sand table, glanced at everyone with a solemn expression, and then said, "Everyone, the time has come to achieve the hegemony of my Wei Wu Army!" ”
When many generals heard this, they couldn't help but feel refreshed, and they all stood up straight and puffed up their chests.
Gao Yihuan continued: "Now the main force of the Tartars is fighting fiercely with the Ming army in Jiangbei, Wu Sangui and Zhang Xianzhong are fighting in Hanzhong, and the troops in Guanzhong are empty. This is a heaven-sent opportunity for our army to seize Guanzhong and outflank Wu Sangui. God doesn't take it, but suffers the blame! The commander decides, and the soldiers are in the middle of the pass! ”
In the festival hall, after hearing this, the generals couldn't help but look at each other, with different expressions, some excited, some excited, and some nervous.
"Mr. Lu, the food prepared by Ben Shuai is ready!" Gao Yihuan first asked about food.
Lu Yifang stood up and solemnly clenched his fists, "Dashuai, I have prepared 300,000 stone rice grain in Nanyang, as long as Dashuai opens up Wuguan Road, the grain can be transported to Guanzhong." In addition, the granary in Xiangyang is also full of rice, and it can be transported to Guanzhong by Danshui after the beginning of spring! ”
Huguang's grain, coupled with the Qin army in Guanzhong, will be the capital of Gao Yihuan's struggle for hegemony against the Qing Dynasty.
The people of Guanzhong are strong, but there is a shortage of food, and in order to gain a firm foothold, there must be sufficient food, so Gao Yihuan is most concerned about the reserve of grain.
