Chapter 364: Save some face for Governor He

Thousands of horsemen galloped towards them in the wilderness, and the galloping power of the horses was enough to make anyone fearful.

The Ming army in the south had few horses, and it was rare to see large-scale cavalry, and the soldiers of the Ming army were stunned to find that this was probably the largest horse army they had encountered since the expedition.

Seeing the cavalry coming all over the field, the roaring body shook the heavens and the earth, and the momentum was terrifying, and many Ming generals knew how powerful Wei Wujun was.

"Since they have one man and three horses!" Ma Xianglin saw the cavalry rushing in the distance, about 3,000 people, but there were thousands of troops rushing, so he took a closer look and found that behind each horse army, almost there were two war horses, and his heart suddenly shook wildly.

The Ming army can't wait for three people to ride a horse, but the Wei army is good, and there are actually three horses for one person, which is really incomparable.

This is not Gao Yihuan to show off his wealth, he does have a lot of horses now, but he doesn't have time to train a new horse army, so he first enriches the mobility ability of the selected tiger and dragoon.

When the generals heard the sound, they looked carefully and found that it was indeed one person and three horses, and their expressions were immediately stunned.

Seeing this scene, and seeing the overwhelming infantry behind the cavalry, the generals were already timid, and the civilian officials who had never seen much of the world were not calm for a long time.

Fu Shangrui only glanced at it, but he didn't dare to look at it anymore, and shouted: "Gao Yihuan actually has such a strong family background, where did he get so many war horses?" ”

Zhang Xianbi on the side, afraid that he was sold by Gao Yihuan, "It is estimated that he fought the Qing army and got it from the Tartars." ”

When He Tengjiao heard this, his heart was even more frightened, Gao Yihuan beat all the prisoners, and robbed so many war horses, isn't it like playing with me?

When Yang Wenyue saw a group of officials behind him, his face turned pale with fright, and he couldn't help but be annoyed. These people didn't drink tea in the yamen, they followed them to do anything, and now that the battle has not yet been fought, they themselves are scared to death.

When he set out on the expedition, the third division of Huguang had great confidence in capturing Jingzhou, and many officials followed him in order to make a merit, and He Tengjiao usually took good care of his own people, no matter what his ability was, as long as it was his people, he tried his best to promote, so he acquiesced to them to follow.

If a civil official in this troubled era is a military officer, the speed of improvement will be much faster than reading a dead book, and everyone originally wanted to take some credit and make their qualifications look better.

If there is one, follow He Duxian, break the Western Thief, and recover Jingzhou's qualifications, in terms of promotion and assessment, it is obvious that there are still great advantages.

But this time, everyone poured blood mold, and the credit was not rubbed, and the stain was one more.

If they could choose, they would definitely choose to stay and drink tea in the yamen, and they would definitely not follow He Tengjiao.

"Why don't they stop?" Suddenly, an official let out an exclamation.

Everyone watched Ma Jun be distracted, and when the Tiger Camp galloped closer, everyone reacted, right! Why don't they stop?

The speed of the horse army was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of the formation, and He Tengjiao came to negotiate, so he stood directly in front of the formation.

At this time, Xu Heihu led a group of horse troops, and did not slow down, all the horse army marched together, the war horses in front were like a wall, and the cavalry was seen behind, undulating with the war horses, like undulating waves.

Ten thousand hooves roared, and the civil and military forces of the Ming army immediately panicked, and the cavalry that came like a wall was frightened by the two tremors, "It's not good, protect the Governor!" ”

The formation of the Ming army lined up in a line was instantly concave, and there was a commotion in front of him, He Tengjiao and others hurriedly turned around, and at this moment, the Xuan Hu Ma Army roared, and suddenly pulled out the reins of the horse, and divided into two strands a hundred steps away in front of the Ming army formation, and galloped back in a big detour.

The generals escorted He Tengjiao to retreat, and made their formation chaotic, and when they retreated into the formation, they found that the Ma army had not collided, and they all suddenly looked gloomy and felt embarrassed.

At this time, the tiger horse army was selected, and after a period of showing off its might, it ran back to two miles, and reined in the war horse and stood in the wilderness.

Although the cavalry did not move, it was amazingly murderous, like a pack of wolves waiting for their chance.

There were cavalry holding down the position on both flanks, and the battalions of the Ming army did not dare to move, and whoever loosened the formation or advanced could become the target of the Ma army's surprise attack.

At this time, Gao Yihuan led a large number of men and horses, and slowly approached the Ming array, more than 200,000 Wei troops, densely spread on the ground, and the men and horses in the front row followed the trumpets and drums, stepping on neat steps, making the ground shake slightly.

Seeing the incalculable men and horses, like rolling black clouds, approaching the line, the Ming soldiers felt the vibration of the ground, from the soles of their feet to their hearts, and they couldn't help but look to both sides, but saw the same horror on the faces of their comrades.

This time, the Ming army, which was originally weak-hearted, was even more empty.

Gao Yihuan rode on the black horse, walked slowly in front, and when the army entered about two miles, he suddenly waved his hand, and the big flag behind him was inserted into the ground, and the advancing Wei army immediately stopped.

Historically, Li Zicheng was chased by the Qing army into three or four hundred thousand people, and fled into Huguang. The remnants of the Shun army were defeated, and the Huguangming army was frightened and fled, and now Gao Yihuan has found 300,000 people to support the scene, and the effect is naturally not much worse.

"Marshal, the Ming army's front was unstable just now, why didn't you let the Xuanhu battalion rush over directly and capture that He Tengjiao." Zhao Zhuzi saw the commotion in Fang Caiming's array, and said with some regret: "If you capture him, if we don't say anything, he will give him!" ”

Gao Yihuan glanced at him with contempt, "It is true that He Tengjiao is the governor of Huguang, but Huguang is not his." If you capture him, Nanjing will immediately be able to reappoint a governor of Huguang. ”

Gao Yihuan glanced at the Ming Array from afar, and then said with a smile: "Besides, if you want to negotiate with him this time, you should save some face for Governor He." If his prestige is swept away, it will be difficult to implement the conditions he promised us. ”

Zhao Zhuzi touched his nose and said a lot, but he didn't understand it too much, but he knew that it was right to listen to the second brother, so he hurriedly smiled: "What the big marshal said is reasonable, what the big boss said is good." ”

"Dashuai, someone from the Ming Array is coming!" Gao Chengxun next to him suddenly pointed to the front of the Ming army and said.

Gao Yihuan heard this, and hurriedly looked up, and saw two Ming cavalry rushing out of the Ming array.

Seeing this, Gao Yihuan suddenly waved his horsewhip and shouted, "Wei Wujun!" ”

"Unparalleled in the world!" The soldier behind him immediately responded in a loud voice.

He Tengjiao in the bright array was frightened again.

At that moment, Gao Yihuan clamped the horse's belly, led nearly 100 horsemen, and galloped out.

The two horsemen who rushed out in front of the Ming army first stopped their horses, and when they saw Gao Yihuan galloping over, Zhang Xianbi hugged his fists and said, "Gao Dashuai, He Duxian asked Gao Dashuai to enter the battle to discuss." ”

The other person was Gao Yiyan, he faced Gao Yihuan, but his face was a little ashamed, "Second brother, Yang Fuyuan said, I will protect the safety of the second brother." ”

Gao Yihuan glanced at him, but he didn't hear it, and said to Zhang Xianbi: "This formation, Ben Shuai will not enter." Presumably, Governor He didn't dare to enter the marshal's big array to discuss, so the marshal would pick a ship, and we would talk on board. ”

After speaking, Gao Yihuan pulled out the reins of the horse and returned to the battle, as if he didn't look at Gao Yiyi, Zhao Zhuzi spat on the ground on the side, glared at the traitor with disdain, and then snorted coldly, and followed the horse back to the battle~
