Chapter 998 Planning CD
After the pontoon bridge was built, Hauge was escorted by his personal guards to cross the river first, and as soon as Hauge left, the Jin army was instantly defeated.
After the Ming army heard the voice of someone in the Jin army shouting "The emperor is leaving", he attacked like crazy, and Ma Jinzhong's lungs were about to explode.
The cooked ducks have all flew, and he is still a famous general, and he is afraid that he will not be able to raise his head when he walks.
On one side is the collapsed Jin army, on the other side is the embarrassed and angry Ming army, the outcome of the war is no longer in doubt, the Ming army will win, but this victory is too far from the Ming army's previous expectations, which makes people bored.
Countless golden soldiers poured onto the pontoon bridge on the river, and the raft made of logs was stepped on under the water, and there were soldiers who were constantly squeezed into the river, struggling, stretching out their hands, and being swept away by the river.
The Ming soldiers held their spears and roared and stabbed forward, and the dense barrels of the guns formed a forest of guns, forcing the collapsed Jin army to the river, and groups of people were driven into the river.
Some desperate Jin soldiers knelt down and asked to surrender, but they trapped the enemy for ten days, thinking that they could capture the Ming soldiers of the Jin Emperor, and found that Haoge had fled, and had already lost their minds, Ma Jinzhong ordered that no one should be left behind, and all the Jin troops on the west bank would be killed.
Under the strangulation of 40,000 Ming troops from three directions, more than 20,000 Jin troops, stabbed to death by guns, driven into the river and drowned, as many as 19,000 people, and less than two or three thousand people, fled to the east bank through narrow pontoon bridges.
Counting the men and horses lost in the previous breakthrough, plus the army that surrendered to the Ming army, the 40,000 Jin army lost more than ninety percent, and the Jin country was greatly injured.
The sky is getting brighter, and the whole valley is full of the corpses of the Jin army, blood seeps into the soil, making the ground black, and the pontoon bridge in the distance is also full of corpses and scattered weapons and flags.
Ma Jinzhong sat on the edge of the pontoon bridge covered in blood, the Miao knife full of gaps was inserted to the side, and the surrounding Ming soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield, and the generals were also dejected as if they had lost the battle.
At this time, several cavalry galloped over, and the first general turned over and dismounted, found Ma Jinzhong, saw that he was sitting on the stone sulking, shook his head, and came over and said: "It's all clear, it's Wu Sangui from eastern Sichuan!" ”
Wang Guangtai's department was located in the north and pursued against the Tuojiang River for a while, but because it was across the Tuojiang River, he only saw the banner of the Jin army on the east bank clearly.
Ma Jinzhong raised his head when he heard this, and when he saw that it was Wang Guangtai, he threw a stone in his hand to the ground with some annoyance, "Wu Sangui, why did he come here?" What about Wang Deren? Didn't the inspector ask him to contain Wu Sangui? Wang Guangtai saw that he asked three questions in a row, knowing that his anger had not subsided, he sighed, "Wu Sangui is cunning, Wang Deren should have fallen for Wu Sangui's strategy." ”
Ma Jinzhong didn't speak with a calm face, but he must have hated Wang Deren in his heart.
Wang Guangtai stood for a while, and then said: "The matter has come to this, the most important thing at the moment is to explain the situation to the superintendent, and the second is that although Haoge escaped, the vitality of the Jin army was greatly damaged, we should take this opportunity to recover Chengdu, and we can't give Haoge a chance to breathe!" ”
When Ma Jinzhong heard this, his heart calmed down a little, "Yes, the Jin army has suffered heavy losses, especially the cavalry casualties, and the time is ripe for us to attack Chengdu." "In the last battle of eastern Sichuan, Li Dingguo and Wang Deren set up an ambush and eliminated nearly 10,000 cavalry collected by the Jin State from the Western Regions.
Saying that, Ma Jinzhong finally stood up and sighed to everyone: "Let's go, first ask the superintendent for guilt, and then discuss the matter of marching into Chengdu." ”
At that time, Wang Guangtai, leaving Wang Guangen and others, continued to clean up the battlefield, rested the men and horses, and ordered the army to send partial divisions to take the opportunity to occupy Fushun, Neijiang, Ziyang and other counties in the north, and open the passage for the army to enter the Chengdu Plain.
After the order was completed, everyone turned over and rode back to Luzhou.
In Luzhou City, outside the university scholars, Ma Jinzhong and others galloped to the door to stop their horses, and found that there was a group of people at the door, it was Wang Deren and others.
Seeing this, Ma Jinzhong snorted coldly and entered directly into the line, but Wang Guangtai stayed outside.
Ma Jinzhong is He Tengjiao's person, he is Wang Yan's person, there are still some differences, and Ma Jinzhong is the main general of the battle, so it is better for him to see He Tengjiao first.
Wang Deren was glanced at by Ma Jinzhong, and knew that the estimated situation was not good, but he was also a little unhappy in his heart.
Seeing this, Wang Guangtai talked to him for a few words, only to know that he had really fallen for Wu Sangui's plan and was led to Luzhou, and Wang Deren also learned about the ambush in the valley and knew that Haoge had escaped.
The two were silent, at this time, a soldier came out in the line, invited a few people to come in, everyone was taken around the courtyard and walked outside, and when they came to the outside of the hall, they heard He Tengjiao's angry voice inside.
After waiting for the soldiers to report, the scolding in the hall stopped, a few people got permission, entered the hall, saw He Tengjiao sitting in the right position with a calm face, Ma Jinzhong stood aside with his head bowed, and several people hurriedly stepped forward and saluted and hugged their fists: "The last general and others are incompetent, please punish the supervisor!" ”
He Tengjiao was silent for a while, he had already reprimanded Ma Jinzhong, because Ma Jinzhong was his person, and now the anger in his heart had subsided a little.
"Okay, this time it's Wu Sangui who is too cunning and spoils our big deal!" He Tengjiao sighed, "After all, it is a great achievement to cripple the main force of the Jin Army, how to say it, you each write an excerpt about what happened, and after reading it, send it to Nanjing!" ”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, in fact, no matter what, it was a pity to run away from Hauge, but after all, this was a victory, and it was not to the point of punishing the generals.
At that moment, everyone was busy saluting, and then Ma Jinzhong finally raised his head and said: "Supervisor, although Haoge has run away, the Jin army has lost more than 30,000 people at once, and we should take this opportunity to seize Chengdu in one fell swoop and drive the Jin army out of Sichuan." ”
He Tengjiao also had this intention, the strength of the Jin army was greatly damaged, he should take advantage of the victory to pursue, if he can recover the whole Sichuan, it can also make up for Haoge's exploits.
"Go, call Dingguo!" He Tengjiao was more convinced of Li Dingguo's military talent, because he had to ask him about all military matters.
Not long after, Li Dingguo hurriedly came to the hall, and everyone discussed and determined the plan to take advantage of the victory to capture Chengdu, but after all, the Jin army still had more than 40,000 troops in Sichuan, plus Chengdu had enough money and food, and the city was strong, so it was not so easy to fight.
Li Dingguo then submitted a report to the imperial court and asked Wu Jinxi, the governor of Huguang, to cooperate with them in attacking Hanzhong.
Southwest and Huguang cooperated, taking advantage of the defeat of the Jin State and the great loss of strength, they seized Sichuan and Hanzhong in the first war, creating conditions for the next part of the imperial court to control Qinghai and Wusizang, and obtain the production area of war horses.
