Chapter 1007: Transformation 7
This is defeated, Liang Bangchu, the prince of Chenghai, looked at the somewhat muddy water as if he was in a different world, and the man whose hair was stiff and covered with dirt and dirt was reflected in the reflection would be himself. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
And once not the best stone honey and snow-topped ice springs, I didn't drink the ice cream concocted by all means. Driven by thirst, he would drink the rainwater accumulated in a roadside pit like a feudal slave.
And it all started when he inadvertently took a fancy to and fell in love with the petite and lovely figure under the arrangement and opportunity created by others, and then the next thing was completely out of his control. Under the guidance and instigation of some force behind him, he was also pushed to the cusp of the storm and never looked back.
After being humiliated and detained in public, deprived of all resources and rights, and the companion and concubine were also executed,
He had to say goodbye to the extravagant and flashy life of the past, and also lost the honorable and glorious title of son, and was confined to the small courtyard of Zongzheng Temple, and could only read a designated book every day to reflect on and atone for his mistakes.
The great ambition and prospect inspired by the short period of time after he was released were like a huge and beautiful dream bubble; After the battle outside Dajia City was easily punctured, only the cruel and ugly interior and reality remained.
The tens of thousands of troops who came across the sea with great determination and a lot of support, as well as the "50,000" army that attacked the city and plundered the land to collect and surrender the rebellion, and the "50,000" army that continued to follow him is now less than 2,000 people.
"The Huai army is not more than 10,000, and more than 10,000 are invincible", and he has used the blood of thousands of followers to thoroughly understand it.
Now, all he wanted was to find a safe place with thick walls and a firm footing.
"Grandpa."
A voice woke him up from his mental activity of self-pity and self-pity.
"Those Huai horses are gone."
After hearing this, many people suddenly showed some kind of luck and luck on their faces, which also means that they can finally stop and take a breath, rest for a while, and maybe have the leisure to eat and drink.
These Huai cavalry are really too difficult, and the ghosts have been around behind them for many days, and they don't know when they will rush up and kill, otherwise they will be overturned by a volley of shots, and there are almost no people and means in this field who can counter and deal with them
It was useless to take refuge in the siege of Lori, for soon the horseback foot men would follow with their artillery wagons and strike a blast, and their men, who had caused the frightened birds, would have to flee in a hurry.
Under the stimulation and pressure of the precarious situation, many people also gave up on themselves and committed all kinds of broken and broken acts, which also caused more conflicts and killings in the local area, but he was no longer able to stop and unwilling to control it.
In the cat-and-mouse game of chasing and fleeing, these people are extremely tired, as long as they are given a slightly safer place to stay, many people can sleep to death.
However, he had a faint feeling that the other party in pursuit was not doing his best, and it was more like an organized and planned drive to weaken, his remnant strength, so this chase would not be given up so easily.
But no matter what the other party's motives and intentions were, he had no choice; The only way to continue fleeing south was to the seaside, where he first gained a foothold and support;
As long as he can return to Dongning Mansion, which is famous for its high walls at the southern end of the island, he can successfully block the momentum of these Huai cavalry; And relying on the few local seaports to regain external support, it may not be possible to continue to hold on to these Huai troops who have come from afar to fight away.
He is now a traitor of the dynasty and a rebel of the office, and he carries enough things on his body to break his bones, and only by going all the way to the dark according to the arrangement of those people can it be possible to get a little turn and a way out in this land of Yizhou, which is the corner of the overall situation, so he must not accept the result of his failure.
Thinking of this, he turned around and ordered again
"Rest for half an hour and then continue to go."
"Try to distance and make contact with those pursuers."
"If you can't keep up or don't want to go again, let them go."
Outside the ruins of a walled city that had collapsed a dozen miles away from them, there were already captives lying on their knees waiting to be disposed of. Because they have assisted and received "traitors", a considerable number of them will be sentenced to varying degrees of hard labor under the supervision of the Huai Army.
On the wall responsible for monitoring these prisoners, Guo Yong, a former young soldier, was also trying a big guy with some admiration and love, and looked at these frightened crowds from time to time.
Because these young soldiers have received all kinds of basic military training early and compulsory in the boy boy boy camp, and have mastered the basic arithmetic and writing skills; After entering the army, it is easier to master and familiarize themselves with the use of these weapons with corresponding technical content;
As a result, several batches of young soldiers who entered formal service were also able to fill the positions related to various technical arms and clerical charts under the establishment of vehicles, artillery, cavalry, and workers. As a gunner, Guo Yong is the most typical representative of them, and he has the ability to make simple calculations and surveys.
And as the reason and support for his faint pride and self-satisfaction, that is, although he was only half a man tall, he was a weapon full of terrifying deterrent power -- a three-type four-inch short cavalry cannon.
Under the same inch diameter and barrel, compared with the extraordinarily thick marine heavy type in the same category, or the field type with a long tube and large frame, or the mountain gun type with an extremely simplified version and easy to disassemble and disassemble; The short-barreled mounted gun type maintains the most basic performance as much as possible, while highlighting and emphasizing the stability of the bump-resistant structure and the lightness of long-distance driving.
Therefore, the most conspicuous part of this mounted cannon is the two pairs of wide rubber wheels reinforced with iron and steel for the convenience of field riding.
Although the size is much lighter and shorter than the starting gun, and the range and power have been reduced, it is jokingly and affectionately called "our door opening stick" by the brothers of the cavalry battalion;
Because of the four-inch caliber of this short cavalry cannon, it can not only fire standard solid iron balls to destroy fortification portals, but also fire scattered shells that kill people, so that these cavalry and accompanying mounted infantry also have the ability to defend or attack the fortifications together.
Since the advent of these accompanying cavalry cannons, it can be said that in addition to the standard city capital, most of the ordinary walled earthen fortifications have been completely unable to stop their tossing and turning and fleeting attacks, and basically they are the result of being caught off guard or panicked, and they are easily broken through the gates and walls.
Like the ordinary artillery regiment with a slightly smaller establishment than the Gun Army, the establishment of the cavalry artillery regiment is also different from the cavalry regiment of the same level, and the artillery group of six to eight people is the most basic unit, corresponding to the cavalry; The three artillery groups are one artillery group, which corresponds to the fire of the infantry army; The three artillery crews are an artillery team, plus a number of armed miscellaneous servants who are transported by horses, and there are about ninety-one members;
Then at the regimental level, in addition to the three artillery corps, there was a full formation of guards and the same number of auxiliaries to control horses and drives, and the mounted artillery regiment had one more sentry than the ordinary infantry artillery regiment, which served as a sentry and reconnaissance force on the battlefield march.
On the battlefield of the Second Northern Expedition, they took advantage of this to cooperate with their cavalry and artillery, and again and again to seize the enemy and occupy those Hejin bridges and ferries located at the key points of the passage, and operate on the spot and set up defensive positions with guns and artillery;
Then, taking advantage of the good time difference, to block and intercept the enemy troops who have fled in groups, or take the initiative to meet the enemy who are rushing to meet them, under the shock and cover of the sudden fire and bombardment of several to a dozen cavalry guns, the infantry and cavalry line up to line up and attack frontally, while the cavalry flanks go forward to outflank or break through the weak rear;
Almost repeatedly, they were skillful in concocting and cooperating, intercepting and repelling these various Northern Korean troops, and even defeating and dispersing them on the spot, leaving behind a great name and many large and small achievements.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
And in Canton,
Liu Yu, the deputy minister of the cabinet and the chief convener of the cabinet, who was full of tiredness, was also looking at the mighty military formation that had just finished swearing and meandered.
Facts have proved that the process of conspiracy and tandem in advance is relatively successful, and the division of interests and the struggle for power and profit after the fact are even more haggard things for him.
In contrast to the various divisive countermeasures and delaying methods in the Lingnei region, in the newly established "cabinet for returning power," after many days of arguing with each other, the various factions finally reached a compromise and unanimity, and it took several days to forcibly bring back the people from all walks of life who were scattered in the five cities and 12 districts and were still unsatisfied;
During this period, there were at least dozens of large and small clashes and infighting, so that these armed forces, which were vigorously looting and looting, were once again chewed on the prohibition of orders.
Then, select a suitable leader and mobilize an army of tens of thousands of horses to go to the front line of Shaozhou and Meiling to meet and intercept the Northern Expeditionary troops and horses that may go south in the ridge.
At the same time, a detachment was cobbled together to clean up the coastal states that were still loyal to the shogunate.
At the same time, the Imperial Court also adopted a series of decisions on tax reductions and the transfer of rights and interests to the major islands and overseas feudal domains with rapid efficiency, in order to win over these foreign feudal forces, and called on them to join in the great cause of overthrowing the rule of the shogunate if they had money and money, and those who had the power to contribute.
In the ruins of a block, a small group of people and horses also quietly appeared, and under the guidance of ghostly figures, they slowly walked out of the water gate of the lower city along the bank of the small river in the twilight.
Disappeared into a dark street that had become empty nearby,
At the same time, Chen Zikun, alias Xiao Riding School, still did not give up, he had a faint sense that the target he was looking for had not left, but had been in the same city as him.
You must know that it is this intuition that has allowed him to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages and avoid several life and death crises.
It's a pity that since Feng Shisanzhong was injured and lay down, those pirates and smugglers have become outcasts that no one pays attention to and cares about, and in the process of needing self-sufficiency, they have gradually lost their restraint and control;
Coupled with the gradual loss of power and marginalization of their backers, even the station has been driven out of the five cities, and now Chen Zikun's execution and appeal have been greatly reduced, and there are not many people who are willing to listen to him.
Therefore, he could only take the last of his cronies from the Chen clan with him, and continued to patrol the ruins of Zhenquanfang like a ghost, trying to illuminate more entrances and secret passages in the paranoia day after day.
Then as time went on, even these last subordinates began to complain and slander him for his paranoia, and gradually became unable to work, and even made excuses not to appear in front of him anymore.
However, as if God had lived up to his painstaking efforts, he finally discovered it today, a fragment of a strip of silk cloth in the cracks under the ruins, and there was a woman's unique smell of fat powder on it, as if it was left a moment and a half ago.
At this time, there were only two bored attendants left and right around him, yawning left and right. (To be continued.) )
