Chapter 779: Strong
"Great, great!" Wu Zhiwang shook his head and said: "Today, I know that the power of the king master to fight against thieves is like this. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
"I feel like it's a gunshot array." The biggest feeling to the deputy general Wang Wei was that the three rock-solid spear and gun formations, the stormy attack of the cavalry, when the soldiers and gunners had to temporarily avoid the edge, it was the gun array that firmly blocked the cavalry's attack, forcing the tide-like cavalry attack to completely fail, and finally forced to disperse, lose speed and formation, and be constantly strangled by gunmen and soldiers.
"I thought it was a sharp ......" Chen Hongfan was a little depressed, he saw with his own eyes the situation of thousands of firecrackers constantly firing, watching the firecrackers keep spewing fire, and saw the projectiles shatter the head of the northern captives, and shoot blood flowers on the body, this was a slaughter, a complete one-sided massacre.
Such a strong army was actually trained by a businessman, Chen Hongfan felt incredible, and there was an inexplicable fear in his heart.
"The power of the cannon, of course." The veteran who had followed Ma Gui on the expedition stroked his beard and smiled, and said: "Without a single blow of artillery, how can it be so easy to win!" β
Everyone was gossiping, and at this time, there was a dense sound of horses' hooves in the north, and Ma Chengen, who personally led the cavalry to attack, led his troops to appear in front of everyone.
Almost every war horse has a head hanging on it, and all the Ming cavalry are full of ambition, and the bloody head hangs on the side of the horse, and no one cares about the blood flowing all over the horse.
The head of a captive is five taels of silver, and the court will not be in arrears for too long, and the generals will not deduct this kind of reward, otherwise there will be no one to fight next time.
Every cavalryman's face was full of smiles, five taels of silver sounds less, but in fact, it is already half a year's income of an ordinary battalion soldier, and a farmer planting more than a dozen acres of land, the annual income is almost this number, and it must be a good year with good weather and good weather.
Someone muttered softly: "General Soldier Ma this time, at least he can be added to the right governor." β
"I think it's possible for the Governor of Zuo to do the same."
Ma Chengen is now the governor of the same knowledge, his governor is much heavier than Zhang Han's, the actual chief soldier plus the governor of the left army, the governor of the palace, the world of the commander of the guard, this is already the apex of the general general military officer, can be added to the right governor or the left governor, in a few decades ago it means a possible knighthood, in the present, it is also the highest honor of the martial arts.
Chen Hongfan's face was like earth, today he seized the opportunity of Zhang Jiude's dissatisfaction with Zhang Han and attacked Ma Chengen, this time he is finished.
The wind was still very strong, and the yellow sand seemed to be a little more spilled to the city, and the yellow sand was almost overflowing where everyone was standing, but at this time, no one cared about this little thing!
There were contemplative expressions on everyone's faces, this time the war was a sudden disaster for the civil and military forces in Yulin, and then it ended with no impact on the city at all...... There were less than 100 dead and wounded in the city, and only a dozen people were killed in battle.
However, the head of the cavalry returning from outside the city was not fake, Ma Chengen completely trusted the merchant army, and attacked decisively at the critical moment and obtained fruitful results.
"I'm going back to rest." Zhang Jiude said suddenly: "Ask Mr. Ma to come to see me after dawn." β
The governor's Fubiao Chinese army hurriedly agreed, and several staff members and guards surrounded the governor to go down to the city.
In fact, the generals looked at each other, and everyone wanted to speak, but they retracted their words again.
The faces of the people were scornful, and then they slowly dispersed.
Chen Hongfan's face was pale and uncertain, and at this time, he saw that Huang Hu and the others were still lying on the city to watch the excitement, and couldn't help but point at Zhang Xianzhong and scolded: "It's all the trouble caused by your dog's day, it's really a bastard." β
Zhang Xianzhong was stunned at first when he heard this, and then angry, Chen Hongfan had already left with a blushing face.
β¦β¦
"I've seen the master."
Li Laibin and others were dressed in armor, and when they saw Ma Chengen, they bowed their hands.
Li Laibin said apologetically: "I'm sorry for the master, I can't bow down and bow when I am in armor." β
Ma Chengen's armor was also stained with blood, and he scolded with a smile when he heard this: "You don't pretend to be garlic, you and Yusheng's people are all spoiled by Wen Lan, who is willing to give people a mouthful." β
The people of the merchant army laughed when they heard this.
The smell of blood and sweat on the battlefield was very strong, but everyone was in the army and didn't care too much.
Ma Chengen saw the battlefield with mountains of corpses, and said with emotion: "When I first saw Wenlan six years ago, he only had you porters and Lahu as guards, and set up a footman, saying that he wanted to set up an account bureau and help merchants bring goods and silver, so that Ben Jiang was in a share, and Ben Jiang didn't take it very seriously at that time, he just wanted to make some ...... Unexpectedly, it's only been a few years, and Wenlan already has a tiger and wolf like you! β
Li Laibin said with a humble face: "Of course, it can't be compared with the elite cavalry of the chief master. β
Ma Chengen shook his head, in front of his subordinates, of course, it was not good to say too much, of course he understood in his heart that his 3,000 people and the more than 3,000 people led by Li Laibin were not at all the same level of army, and if the two sides fought, the Ming army would not be much better than the performance of the Mongols.
Ma Chengen changed the subject and said, "How many beheadings, what are you going to do with these heads?" β
Li Laibin said: "Beheaded 5,000 nearly 6,000, the detailed number has not yet been counted, more than 2,000 war horses have been captured, and the weapons and armor have not been counted." Thinking about it this way, we have to take away most of the first level, and this battle is estimated to be reported, but it is not appropriate to make a big splash, our department pursued Tumut to this point, and happened to encounter a trick, but there was this battle. As for the first merit of this battle, of course, it is the chief master, we leave a few hundred heads, plus the chief master's own, we can divide some to the generals and governors in the city, and prepare the troops, so that when the game is played, it is best to make some cover-up and not make the boss pay too much attention to our business group training. We will take away the war horses, and the armor left by the northern captives can also be disposed of at will. β
"Okay, that's for the best." Ma Chengen breathed a sigh of relief, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
He said again: "You and Yusheng have silver, and the armor battle of the Beiyu is really not worth it, so I am really welcome." β
β¦β¦
At dawn the next day, Zhang Jiude was woken up from his sleep.
Ma Chengen was dressed in civilian clothes, and there was still a residual smell of blood on his body, so he rushed directly into the upper room, and after Zhang Jiude came out of his clothes, Ma Chengen said: "Lord Junmen, the cavalry of the merchant group has a lot of northern captives in the northwest direction, someone sent a letter in the middle of the night, and hundreds of beheadings, and tens of thousands of remnants of the taokou scattered and fled, and most of them ran to the western place. β
"Good, good, good." Zhang Jiude felt a lightness on his body, and said happily: "You don't have to worry about it at all, even the Ningxia guards, central defenders, and Xining don't have to worry about anything." Hearing this news, the old man really wanted to make a big difference. β
"There's something happier to come by." Ma Chengen said: "The merchant group soldiers are determined to be in Tumut, and they will not stretch their hands to the side of the taokou, at most they will set up a few branches here to facilitate our merchants in Shaanxi. β
And Yusheng's account bureau has been very eye-catching, in Shanxi, Xuanfu, Datong, to Beijing and Hebei has been very trusted, because of the relationship between Ma Chengen, all the way from Shanxi Town to Yansui, in fact, from Shanxi to northern Shaanxi, if it can be extended to Ningxia and Xining, south to Qingyang and Yan'an, and even Guanzhong to extend, it is to revitalize the entire northwest.
At that time, Shaanxi merchants and Jin merchants were almost the same, Shaanxi merchants were not as wealthy as Jin merchants, but in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, Shaanxi merchants also had considerable vitality, and Yusheng's logistics and account bureau industry was also very important.
Ningxia Zhongwei brought to Guyuan is the territory of Guyuan Town, and Xining belongs to Gansu Town, which is actually Ningxia Province and Gansu Province in later generations. The core area of the taokou is the Hetao area from Qinghai Province to northern Shaanxi, and the Inner Mongolia region in the north of northern Shaanxi is the grazing land of the Ordos Department.
Zhang Jiude squinted his eyes and said: "Zhang Wenlan's achievements this time are high, not under the three major expeditions, if he reports his merits, the imperial court may even be rewarded with knighthood, why bother with this matter of business." The Governor and the Governor should not get too involved in the business world. β
Ma Chengen said with a straight face: "The Governor and the Lord Junmen are in the local area, and Zhang Wenlan just wants to borrow the power of the two. As for repaying merits, Zhang Wenlan has always only liked business, not seeking progress. In this war, it was enough for the merchant army to sweep a few strokes at most, and the beheaded level, the merchant army had all been handed over to the last general for disposal. β
Zhang Jiude immediately understood, he was very impressed by He Yusheng's concealment of credit, before that, Zhang Han's strength in this place has been inconspicuous, and the most showy thing a while ago was to send thousands of cars to the capital, which suddenly made people have a significant improvement in the overall strength of He Yusheng. This year, he and Yusheng are fighting on the grassland again, and few people know about it, and it is estimated that after the fight, he played a book lightly, and most of it was nonsense about "expanding the land for a hundred miles".
Zhang Jiude didn't think too much about it, he looked at Ma Chengen, twisted his beard and said: "If this is the case, wouldn't you feel ashamed, do the generals know?" β
"The last general has already talked with Vice General Wang and General Li and several generals, and everyone is very happy."
That is to say, most of the generals in the city supported this matter, Zhang Jiude sighed, and said: "If this is the case, this official can only bear it." He will also write a letter to the Governor, stating the merits of Zhang Wenlan and He Yusheng, and taking more care of their firms in the trilateral places. β
