Chapter Ninety-Three: The War Comes Again [Ask for Collection]
ps: To win this time, Chen Ming must show a bug-style weapon, can you figure out what it is?
In the thirty-second year of Qianlong, late March.
Wu Shixiong, the deputy general of Nanyang Town, who was appointed as the temporary general of the army, raised all the troops that could be mobilized from Nanyang Town, plus the township brave militia regiments sent by the prefectures and counties in western Henan, and gathered more than 5,000 people to press Lushan from three sides. Chen Jiajun, who had been active outside Lushan County for more than a month, did not make any eye-catching performances, and honestly withdrew from the surrounding towns and towns, and once again retreated back to Funiu Mountain. Only this time they expanded the boundaries of their sphere of influence to Tumenji, and they were no longer the Phoenix Terrace that was famous in the entire western Henan!
Wu Shixiong is 55 years old. In this day and age, he was already an old man with one leg in a coffin. Appointed as the deputy general of Nanyang Town, Xinyang Association, although he is the second person in Nanyang Town, he is not in the limelight, and Zhang Dazhongsheng, the former general of Jingzi Guan Association. There is no Boryeong's enterprising spirit.
Fifty-five-year-old Wu Shixiong led the troops to fight in a stable way.
Therefore, when he gathered more than 2,000 people from Nanyang Town, he did not rush into Lushan, but waited until the militia groups in various state capitals gathered, and then pressed into Lushan County with great fanfare. After coming to Lushan, he did not immediately advance to Tumenji, but made every effort to collect information about the Chen family's army.
Such a small local heroic force has set off such a big wave, so that Nanyang Town has successively folded into more than 30 officers below the two bigwigs of the general army and the general -- the general and above, and more than 2,000 officers and soldiers, which is simply something that has not been done in Henan for a hundred years.
Wu Shixiong is very aware of the before and after of the battle of Boryeong. Seriously, that battle is to let Wu Shixiong fight, and it will not be better than Boryeong's performance, Boryeong is young, but it does have strength. But such a handsome man in the army, he died in front of the Phoenix Terrace very absurdly, not to mention, even if he didn't die, the Qing army would not be able to please him in that war.
Wu Shixiong did not blindly overestimate the strength of Chen Jiajun, and he attributed a large part of the responsibility for the defeat of Baoning to the accidental death of Baoning. If it weren't for the fact that the general soldier was suddenly killed by a stray bullet, even if the Qing army lost that battle, it would not have been so miserable.
Therefore, while he valued Chen Jiajun, he was not afraid of Chen Jiajun. After all, Wu Shixiong never expected that the Chen family would have such a strong armor manufacturing capacity.
With a forging hammer and plenty of iron, it's not too easy to make those simple cuirasses.
Without exception, the person in charge of Chen Jiajun's war is still Chen Ming. Successively defeated the official army, swept half of Ruzhou, and brought back a large number of materials and soldiers, Chen Ming is still not very old, but his status and influence in the Chen family army are straight up. Fortunately, Chen Hui only has one son under him, and he is still a son-in-law, so it is logical to inherit Chen Hui's power. The military power was almost completely controlled by Chen Ming, and it did not cause dissatisfaction within the Chen family.
Li Xiaomei took her subordinates to pack up Chen Ming's clothes, and Chen Ming hugged the child and kissed him. Only a few days after I came back, I was called back to the front again. And in the past few days since he returned to the mountain, he has not really accompanied his family.
First of all, he had to reorganize his troops. With so many new recruits in the Chen Jiajun, it is impossible not to reorganize the troops. If you start a war and make a mess, something big will happen.
In Chen Ming's hands, the Chen family army first selected a part of the elite and a part of the Chen family's children to form a personal guard battalion. It is composed of two infantry teams, a cavalry team, a military police team and the personal soldiers of Chen Hui and Chen Ming's father and son, as well as a tank team with a total number of about 400 people, with a total number of about 500 people, which can be called the elite of the Chen family's army.
Not to mention the tank team, the cavalry team is the only formed cavalry among the more than 2,000 soldiers of the Chen family's army, and there is also a military police team with a full force of 100 people, doing dirty work that offends people. Of course, Chen Ming has to 'look at it differently'. Moreover, this position, which is equivalent to a military judge, will also be an important part of Chen Ming's monitoring of the whole army in the future, and it is natural that he should be selected into the pro-guard battalion.
Chen Erbao, as the first fierce general of the Chen family, whether it is his past qualifications or his current merits, the first battalion of the regular army belongs to him, and he has four teams under his command that are not very complete, plus his personal team, three hundred and thirty people.
Then there are reconnaissance teams, sniper teams, medical teams, musket teams, artillery teams, mine protection teams, and so on, and there are not many personnel, but the number of Chen Jiajun itself is not high. The remaining manpower, Chen Ming, formed a new barracks, and the slave laborers and ruffians who were brought back to the mountains, as well as the mountain people who had been recruited by the Chen family in the mountain villages and cottages with real money, silver, grain and cloth in the past few days, a total of 13,400 people, were organized into 20 recruit teams, and all of them were trained by the recruit battalion.
This time, Chen Ming went down the mountain to take away half of the recruits, equipping them with rattan armor, cuirass and some swords and guns. As well as tank and cavalry teams, and a whole hundred veteran musketeers. The artillery did not bring it, and the guns in Tumenji were already operated by gunners. Plus a group of scouts, snipers, and an entire medical team.
He left Chen Hui with artillery and two complete infantry teams, plus the mine protection team and artillery team, whether it was a recruit or those prisoners of war who were thrown into the mine, if they wanted to rebound, Chen Hui could easily suppress it with the strength in his hands.
When facing his wife and children, Chen Ming behaved very relaxedly, and it seemed that the 5,000 people outside did not put pressure on him at all. After Li Xiaomei packed the package, her eyes were red, of course she knew that Chen Ming was doing this to not let her worry.
But Li Xiaomei is really worried.
The waves set off by the Chen family are getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more officials and soldiers who come to encircle and suppress each time, if Chen Ming does not deal with it well, I am afraid that if the Chen family has not perished, she will become a widow first.
Chen Ming hugged Li Xiaomei, who had red eyes, and kissed her fiercely: "Take care of the children at home well, and sleep boldly with confidence." The person who can kill your man in this world has not yet been born. ”
Chen Erbao had more than 300 people in his hands, Chen Ming brought 1,000 people back from the mountain, 1,300 people faced more than 5,000 people, it was really hard to say in the plains. But in the mountains, Chen Ming is not afraid at all. In particular, the Tumenji fortress has begun to bear fruit, especially in Nanyang Town, where there is no heavy artillery. Chen Ming is afraid of him!
"When this battle is fought, I will take the troops out of Ruzhou. I will always win, keep winning, lay a big turf, and fight to the city of Beijing. overthrew the current Qing Dynasty, captured Emperor Qianlong alive, and shaved this pig's tail braid. I will be the emperor, our son will be the prince, and you will also be the queen mother and enjoy the best blessings in the world! ”
Chen Ming hugged Li Xiaomei tighter. I don't know what the reason is, after the battle, he especially wanted to see Li Xiaomei and the child, especially wanted to.
"I'm not going to die. If I don't overthrow the Manchus and lay a great foundation, I won't die. Don't worry, I'm not going to die......"
