After collecting the troops and returning to the camp, Yang Lin ordered a big reward for the three armies, and the gangsters also fried meat and vegetables to celebrate.

In this battle, Liu Jinzhong invested more than 1,000 horsemen to participate in the battle, and nearly 100 horses were killed on the battlefield.

War horse meat is sour and hard, but because there is not much meat in the army, besides, this horse meat is much better than the dry rice and pot helmet eaten in the past, and compared to vegetables without much oil.

The guy came with a large piece, forcibly enduring the sour taste, and Yang Lin slowly refined it, giving people the feeling of enjoying every meal.

Everyone talked while eating, talking about the war that day, and there were palpitations, and some even sighed, if they were broken through by the Great Western Army, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But this battle also reminded everyone that many routs are often caused by psychological panic, and there is no punishment for everyone to retreat, so the battlefield is slightly unfavorable, and a squad retreats backwards, and finally forms a rout.

After studying, it was decided to promulgate the Law on Joint Sitting, stipulating:

1. If the squad leader retreats with the squad, the squad leader will be killed.

2. If the squadron leader retreats with the squadron, the squadron leader will be killed.

3. If the captain retreats with the brigade, the captain will be killed.

Fourth, if the battalion commander retreats with the whole battalion, the battalion commander will be killed.

5. If the regiment commander retreats with the whole regiment, the regiment commander will be killed.

6. If the regimental commander does not retreat, but all the officers and men of the regiment retreat, so that the regimental commander is killed, the battalion commander to which the regiment commander belongs shall be killed.

7. If the battalion commander does not retreat, but all the officers and men of the battalion retreat, and the battalion commander is killed, the battalion commander's captain shall be killed.

8. If the captain does not retreat, but the brigade retreats, so that a large number of people are killed, the squadron leader to which the captain belongs will be killed.

9. If the squadron leader does not retreat, but the squadron retreats, so that the squadron leader is killed, the squadron leader to which the squadron belongs will be killed.

10. If the squad leader does not retreat, and the squad retreats, so that the squad leader is killed, the squad members will be killed.

11. The law of joint sitting shall also apply to the secretaries, assistants, and supervisors of the military at all levels.

Hearing such an order, everyone was in an uproar, everyone was the commander in charge of the battlefield, and if the battle was not conducive to retreating, then didn't he lose his life?

Yang Lin explained to everyone, for example, if a group of people retreats together, the head of the regiment will be killed, but when the head of the regiment sees him retreating, he will never retreat. If his regimental commander does not retreat alone, he will not be able to support the enemy, and he will die in battle, so I will kill all three of his battalion commanders to pay for your regimental commander's life.

When the battalion commander saw that the regiment commander did not retreat, he was afraid that if the regiment commander was killed, he should pay for his own life, even the battalion commander did not dare to retreat.

And so on, the regiment commander does not retreat, the general battalion commander does not retreat, the captain of the hundred brigades does not retreat, the squadron leader and the squad leader do not retreat, if that soldier dares to retreat as a deserter, of course he will be killed by the squad leader and the squadron leader.

So it is not the death, but the death of three or five of the men. Even millions of people should be of the same heart, and that one dares to retreat first?

This method of sitting together means that in the whole army, everyone is like a knife on their heads, like a rope binding their heels, looking at each other one by one, and no one can get out of it.

In the art of war, the strong must not advance alone, and the weak must not retreat alone. Youyun "10,000 people with one heart" and "10,000 people work together". If you really want to get this effect, you have to implement this joint sitting method!

From now on, the volunteers will implement this joint sitting method, and all officers and soldiers will follow it without violating it, and do not regard this as an ordinary document.

When everyone heard this, they all nodded yes.

The examination found that the two captains and five squadron leaders had retreated without receiving the enemy, and were now tied up by the five flowers and dragged to the battalions to show the public, and then beheaded in front of the hillside.

Since the soldiers are mainly recruited from the local area, they are exempted from paying one person every year on weekdays, and they will receive a subsidy of 1 yuan and 2 cents of silver, and they will also have a generous pension for the war dead and wounded.

Now, if you are punished for violating military discipline, or if you become a deserter on the battlefield, you will be laughed at, and it will be difficult for your parents, brothers and sisters to raise their heads for the rest of their lives.

The whole army was shocked, and everyone was afraid of being punished and embarrassing their families.

Seeing the high momentum of the whole army, Yang Lin was even more gearing up, and the main reason for being so active was to eliminate the scourge of Liu Jinzhong.

Historically, Liu Jinzhong surrendered to the barbarian Qing and led Haoge soldiers and horses into Sichuan to shoot Zhang Xianzhong, and this time he sent troops to attack Baoning Mansion in the hope of eliminating this scourge and avoiding the barbarian Qing entering Sichuan, so as to ensure the safety of the Sichuan people.

Whether it is Zhang Xianzhong's slaughter of Sichuan or the slaughter of the Qing Dynasty, there is no doubt that the Sichuan people were slaughtered at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

In order to avoid the recurrence of historical tragedy, Yang Lin is preparing to attack the ancient city of Langzhong.

At this time, Zhao Ronggui in the city was panicked, especially after the reinforcements were defeated and retreated, and he sent an envoy to discuss the matter of returning to Shun after knowing that it was hopeless to defend the city.

Unlike Liu Jinzhong, Zhao Ronggui was originally a famous general of the Sichuan army, and he was a favorite general of Chen Shiqi, the governor of Sichuan in the past.

Yang Lin was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately sent Yin Chengqi and others from the staff office into the city to negotiate.

Now it is rumored everywhere that Yang Lin has a reputation for eliminating dissidents and having no tolerance for others, in order to eliminate the influence, although he is extremely annoyed in his heart, he also has to be patient with the other party.

After five days of stalemate, it feels more and more wrong? Is the other party procrastinating and waiting for change? Annoyed in his heart, Yang Lin decided to forcibly attack the city despite everyone's interference.

On this day, he was dressed all over his body, standing at the front of the Franco's machine gun position and was about to give orders, when he suddenly saw Qian Bangqi and his party rushing from the official road.

The guards welcomed them in, and before everyone could sit down again, Qian Bangqi took out the official documents of the governors of the four provinces and the governors of Sichuan, declaring that Liu Jinzhong and Zhao Ronggui had returned to the Ming army, and were now appointed by the imperial court as deputy generals, so that they were stationed in place and controlled by Ma Gan, the governor of Sichuan.

Unexpectedly, being tricked by the other party, Yang Lin was extremely annoyed and decided to ignore the military order and order to open artillery to attack the city.

Suddenly, the Malay newspaper heard the news that the volunteers were attacking Baoning Mansion, and Zhang Dingguo, the general of the Western Expedition of the Great West, and Bai Wenxuan, the later general, led their troops to help, and their forwards had reached the southern county.

Sitting on the ground, Yang Lin was annoyed, he couldn't imagine that such a good time would slip away in his hands.

Since the other party is playing with himself on applause, he has to disgust Wang Yingxiong and Ma Gan no matter what.

After thinking about this, Yang Lin shook his head again and again and said: "Deputy Envoy Qian (according to the deputy of the inspection envoy), my lords, generals, Liu Jinzhong is a capricious villain, Zhang Xianzhong defected as soon as he entered Sichuan, and now he is defeated by my volunteer army and immediately returns to the imperial court."

The governor of the four provinces, the prince of Sichuan, and the governor of Sichuan, Ma Gong, must be confused by the villain, and he is thousands of miles away to listen to slander, the situation in Sichuan is irreparable, and the people of Sichuan will inevitably suffer from Liu Jinzhong in the future. ”

Qian Bangxin shook his head and said: "My lord, now that the state affairs are difficult, Liu Jinzhong and Zhao Ronggui have returned to my Ming Dynasty although the army is poor and weak, it is a gratifying thing, everyone should celebrate, my lord said such words, which made unnecessary suspicion among colleagues." ”

Yang Lin shook his head and said: "Qian Jianjun, my lords, as everyone said, Liu Jinzhong only returned to my Ming Dynasty because he was defeated by our army and in order to save his power."

Everyone knows that the state affairs are difficult, and if my Ming Dynasty is in danger again in another day, Liu Jinzhong will inevitably betray my Ming Dynasty for the sake of interests. ”

The generals clasped their fists one by one and declared that they would be prepared to continue attacking the city of Boryeong, while the civil officials urged their colleagues and superiors not to disobey the peace.

Everyone was in a stalemate for a long time, but Yang Lin actually figured it out and decided to withdraw from the army.

In late February, after leaving Ma Mingluan to guard Dazhou, Yang Bingyi to be Bazhou, and Liao Qifang to guard Pengzhou, Yang Lin led the army to slowly retreat to Shunqing Fucheng.

Hearing that the volunteers retreated, Zhang Dingguo, the general of the Daxi expedition to the west, who was in a dilemma in the southern county, also led his troops to retreat, and originally led his troops to help, who expected that Liu Jinzhong and Zhao Ronggui would actually return to the Ming court, so they did not move forward in the southern city.

On this day, when they arrived at the border of Pengzhou, the messenger came to report, claiming that Mrs. Fan Daiyun had given birth to a baby boy three days ago, and that the mother and child were safe.

Pressing the handle of the knife, Yang Lin was full of emotion and surprise in his heart.

Seeing that Yang Lin turned from worry to joy, everyone congratulated one by one, and many people shouted for a treat.

Jing Keqin admonished beside him: "My lord, don't we volunteers have this habit, add meals every 10 days, and when the time comes, everyone will be full of food and enough meat to eat."

Although they are still on the march, it is better to let the brothers have an extra meal in advance to celebrate the birth of the eldest son. ”

Looking at the coaxing crowd, Yang Lin shook his head hesitantly and said, "Everyone, is this good?" Don't waste your public because of your own selfishness, and do anything that doesn't add food. ”

Bu Ning shouted: "What's so bad about this, the emperor's son is born, so he will have to give amnesty to the world."

Adults have made outstanding achievements, why can't brothers have an extra meal? ”

Seeing the generals overjoyed one by one, although they were quite happy in their hearts, they just didn't agree to it in person.

Senator Yin Chengqi thought for a while, and arched his hand: "My lord, this time the retired brothers are a little unwilling, if you don't celebrate like this, the brothers will definitely sigh."

Besides, the birth of the eldest son is indeed gratifying, everyone is greatly favored by adults, if you don't say the same, the brothers will not be happy. ”

Seeing that everyone was talking about this, Yang Lin had no choice, and he could only take out 50 taels of silver to reward everyone with a meal.

On the wine table, Yang Lin drank ten glasses in a row, drunk, and from time to time took everyone's hands and said: "I think I, Yang Lin, am just a poor talent, if it weren't for the coincidence of throwing pen to paper, would I have today's status?"

Although I am usually a little fierce to everyone, everyone must understand that this is for everyone's good, the volunteers have sprung up in the past two years, and they are very hated by others, and others are all gold, so we will all be doomed. ”

Yin Chengqi frowned slightly, adults drink a lot of alcohol, why are you talking nonsense after drinking a few times today? Then I thought about it, and suddenly realized, and secretly stretched out my thumb, deeply admired.
