Although Zhang Xianzhong's plan to burn the city did not succeed, the Shu Wangfu and the Yamen of the Governor's Office were severely affected, and there were still raging fires in many places.

The streets were full of panicked people, some of them were terrified and escaped from the capture of the Great Western Army, those who took the opportunity to escape from the Demon Capture of the Great Western Army, and some of the remnants of the soldiers were brave, and some even took advantage of the chaos to rob.

After taking control of the city gates, Yang Lin appointed Senator Zhao Sixuan as the prefect of the city capital, and ordered him to join the Sichuan Governor Qian Bangqian and Senator Yin Chengqi to impose martial law in the whole city and organize people to extinguish the fire.

The whole city was divided into more than 10 defense zones, and various ministries were assigned to be responsible for public security in the areas and personnel were organized to extinguish the fires.

Martial law was issued, and the whole city was ordered to be martial law.

Those who do not obey the command will be immediately beheaded

Take advantage of the fire to rob the robber, kill

Rape ** woman, kill

Walk around the street without permission, kill

Those who do not obey the order to put out the fire will be killed.

......

With the gradual implementation of the Ten Killings Order, and as the gendarmes began to patrol the streets, order was gradually restored to the capital.

When he came to the front of the Shu Palace, looked at the burning carrier hall, and saw the half-collapsed Duanli Gate, Yang Lin was extremely annoyed, and saw a few Daxi officials escorting soldiers from a distance.

Looking at Jiang Dingzhen and Gong Wanjing, who were cut with their hands behind their backs and disgraced, Yang Lin smiled and said: "The two of you have taken refuge in the rogue, you can think of today." ”

Jiang Dingzhen arched his hand and said: "My lord, I will wait for Sven to sweep the floor and insult the ancestors, if you want to scold, just scold."

Zhang Xianzhong only listened to Wang Zhaolin's anger and resentment, today he was defeated by the adult, I am convinced, and now I have nothing to ask for, I only hope that the adult can give him a good time. ”

Yang Lin pressed the handle of the knife with both hands, looked at Gong Wanjing next to him and said, "Gong Wanjing, you, what do you think?" ”

Gong Wanjing laughed and said: "The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty is rotten, I originally thought that the eight kings would be able to clarify the universe, who would have expected that this would be the case, there is nothing to say below, I just want the adults to be happy."

Yang Lin laughed when he heard this, brandished a big knife to cut off the ropes on his body, and looked at the surprised crowd: "Now that the Great Western Army has been defeated, Zhang Xianzhong has no possibility of turning over."

It is difficult to atone for the sins of the two of them to kill a thousand knives and 10,000 knives, but now the Manchu Tartars are in the Kou, the national disaster is at the head, and everyone needs to go to the national hardship together. ”

The two of them were in the official of the Daxi regime, and after being captured, they were conceited that they would die, and now when they saw Yang Lin released in public, they wept bitterly, hoping to be taken in to repay the grace of not killing.

Yang Lin was overjoyed and immediately hired the two as friends to be in charge of the military Chinese book.

It didn't take long for Yang Bingyi to report that the department had seized a cart of chestnut trees.

This is not an ordinary chestnut tree, Zhang Xianzhong has been dominating the world for more than ten years, plundering countless wealth, and this time he decided to establish a regime based on Sichuan, bringing not only 200,000 soldiers and horses, but also more than ten years of wealth intercepted from all over the country.

This time the retreat to the north was in a hurry, coupled with Yang Lin's army to attack the city, some of the young men who were forcibly recruited, and the captured soldiers took the opportunity to escape, and now there are as many as 20,000 or 30,000 people scattered in the city capital.

During the street fighting, Yang Bingyi saw several people in a hurry, desperately carrying a few big chestnut trees, going up to investigate, and seizing five or six big chestnut trees.

When I opened the chestnut tree, I saw that all of them were fifty taels of silver ingots, and a chestnut tree could hold twenty or thirty pieces, and such a small chestnut tree would have one or two thousand taels of silver.

In the Ming Dynasty, ordinary people's income was only twenty taels of silver a year, and it was unthinkable that a chestnut tree would have dozens of families for a year's livelihood, and its wealth could be imagined.

It is rumored that Zhang Xianzhong's wealth is as much as millions, and Yang Lin is annoyed that the other party is treacherous and burns the city, and now he is just beating the water dogs.

Leaving Qian Bangxin and Zhao Sixuan, together with Yang Cheng's 1st Regiment, Ma Mingluan's 9th Regiment, and Liu Jinfu's militia to maintain order in the city.

Sent fast horses to various places, and ordered Yang Wei, the guard general of Shunqing Prefecture, Jing Keqin, the guard general of Tongchuan Prefecture, and others to gather local soldiers to strictly defend and prevent the Great Western Army from retaliating.

In order to consolidate local power, the prefectures and counties conducted large-scale military training, and each township had about the size of a squadron, which on the surface was not large. But if they are concentrated, there are more than 300 people in each county, and the offense is insufficient, and the defense is more than enough.

Yang Lin personally led the cavalry regiment, the escort regiment, the 3rd regiment of Long Zhiframe, the 5th regiment of Yang Bingyi, the 7th regiment of Feng Youqing, the 8th regiment of Wang Shuji, the 10th regiment of Wang Zhibang, and the militia of Hong Zhenglong and Lin Shitai to rest for the night, and followed the remnants of Daxi to attack the next day.

Historically, the various departments in central Sichuan did not move forward, and Zhang Xianzhong retreated.

But in the reincarnation of time and space, Yang Lin was born out of thin air, and led his troops to the city capital, so Zhang Xianzhong's retreat was not so thoughtful.

Among the 100,000 and 50,000 of the Great Western Army, they retreated in a hurry, and many of the people of Huguang who were captured and plundered fled by the soldiers of the Four Guards.

Although the pursuit was two days late, the Onishi Army had a lot of baggage, and its movement was unusually slow, and the two-day journey was only more than 20 miles.

And seeing the volunteers coming, Zhang Nengqi, who was in charge of the break, was quite annoyed, although Zhang Xianzhong strictly ordered the city to be burned, he could discount it, and the other party should be grateful to Dai De, who knew that he would lead his troops to attack now.

After the army withdrew from the capital, the morale was low, and if the other side broke through the escort force and killed the Chinese army, those men and horses who were coerced to carry money and food would inevitably panic.

In order to avoid this situation, the two led 20,000 soldiers and horses to kill a horse gun, and fought with Yang Bingyi, who was at the forefront.

Seeing the Great Western Army coming, Yang Bingyi hurriedly lined up to meet the enemy and fought with Zhang Nengqi.

The most feared of the Volunteers was the cavalry of the Rogues, especially on the plains, where the cavalry rushed back and forth, making it difficult to be taken off guard.

Seeing that Zhang Nengqi actually wanted to use the old method, use infantry to entangle himself, and personally lead the cavalry to outflank the wing.

Yang Bingyi shrank his troops on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was in a hurry with the large battalion behind.

Standing in the distance, he saw that Zhang Nengqi was ready to give full play to the advantage of cavalry to assault the two wings, and decided to break through head-on.

Yang Lin waved the flag, and Bu Ning and Yao Chonglie each led a cavalry regiment to meet Zhang Nengqi in order to contain Zhang Nengqi.

And ordered Feng Youqing's regiment and Wang Zhibang's regiment to raid head-on.

Although Zhang Nengqi was brave, the morale of the soldiers of the Great Western Army was low, and the soldiers had no heart to fight to the death, and finally they were defeated by the volunteers and fled to the north.

The Volunteer Army pressed on the whole line, the Great Western Army shook the whole line, Zhang Xianzhong personally led more than 10,000 elite soldiers to arrive, and the two sides launched the bloodiest battle since the Volunteer Army became an army.

As mentioned above, Zhang Xianzhong divided his troops into four ranks, the most of which was his 3,000 elite cavalry and thousands of elite soldiers.

The second class is the four righteous sons and several governors of the pro-army

The third class is the subordinates who have been adapted from the local official army

The fourth class is the peasant households with various weapons.

In the past, he fought with Zhang Wenxiu, Ma Yuanli, Bai Wenxuan and others, Yang Lin was most afraid of the other party's pro-army, and now he suddenly encountered Zhang Xianzhong's elite soldiers and horses.

Yang Lin, who was watching the battle in the rear, was shocked when he saw it, and hurriedly relied on the terrain to arrange the military formation, so that the various departments could slowly stabilize the situation.

When they returned to the camp, they saw the dense corpses in front of them, some of them were volunteers and some of them were rogues, and I heard that nearly five or six hundred volunteers were killed and more than 1,000 were wounded in the first battle this afternoon.

The two captains who were the first to retreat withdrew and beheaded, and Yang Lin was worried about how to deal with the elite cavalry.

According to the current grass-roots establishment of the troops, the squadron has three squadrons under its jurisdiction and the brigade has three squadrons; in the face of the retreating crowd, the generals at the grass-roots level have no other means to turn the tide of the war except to kill the deserters and blow the trumpet of the charge.

At the beginning of the formation of the Volunteer Army, the equipment was very rudimentary, and the impact of a large number of Franc cannons and tiger squat guns was not considered, and the impact of grenadiers on the battle situation was not considered.

It seems that it is time to adjust the organizational structure of the grass-roots level, at the beginning of the formation, based on the combat idea of the Mandarin Duck Formation, each squad contains 11 people, and now it is time to optimize, each squad has 10 people, including 1 squad leader, 2 captains, and 7 soldiers, and three combat groups can be formed on the battlefield to form a triangular offensive posture of the three-three system.

Each squadron consists of 3 squads, plus 1 squadron leader and 2 grenadiers, for a total of 33 people.

On the battlefield, the squadron leader influences the battle situation by directly commanding the various squads, or grenadiers.

Each brigade consists of 3 squadrons, 10 cooking squads, 1 tiger squat artillery team (3 people), 1 captain, 1 secretary, 1 standard-bearer, and 1 trumpeter, a total of 116 people.

On the battlefield, the captain gives orders through the flag bearer and the trumpeter, or by commanding the tiger squat artillery group, or directly commanding each squadron to influence the battle situation.

The battalion headquarters has the same number of people, and its artillery squadron is generally 5 No. 3 Furlong guns (operated by 4 men, towed by two-wheeled rickshaws), or three No. 3 Furlong guns and 4 rocket vehicles (towed by wheelbarrows).

While he was planning, General Yao Chonglie rushed in excitedly and shouted: "My lord, look, look, how can the rogues have so many treasures?

Yang Lin was so shocked that he stood up from the stool and saw Yao Chonglie carrying a chestnut tree about 6 feet long, what was surprising was that the chestnut trees were tied with iron hoops at both ends.

In addition, Yao Bu also seized 2 carriages during the pursuit, each carriage put more than 40 more than 25 cm in diameter, 130 cm long, and the two ends were hoopped with iron hoops, cut open and looked, and 10 ingots and 50 taels of silver were placed inside.

Seeing that the chestnut trees were full of chestnut trees in front of them, everyone was overjoyed, and Yang Lin immediately ordered the generals of each battalion to count, and after a day of fierce fighting, the volunteers intercepted a total of 100 long chestnut trees and 200 short chestnut trees, so a total of 250,000 taels of silver were intercepted.

Seeing that there was so much money, everyone asked for war one after another, and some even claimed that the interception of so much money this time could solve the problem of the shortage of salaries for the volunteers in one fell swoop, not to mention the death and wounding of more than 1,000 people, even if it was a little more, it would be acceptable.

The casualties on the first day were too great, Yang Lin decided to change his tactics and follow all the way, Sichuan is so big, there will always be a chance.
