As soon as Liu Jinzhong died, the remaining soldiers of the Great Western Army were like a monkey that had fallen into a big tree, trembling and frightened, and immediately turned into a fierce pounce to scatter and flee, and the cavalry who originally had a slight numerical advantage fought against each other, and became a one-sided pursuit, no one dared to resist the battle, Zubian took a group of white-robed soldiers who were not very good at riding horses, and chased heartily for a while, killing more than a dozen people, and the rest could not catch up.

And the foot soldiers of the Great Western Army have already become ants all over the mountains, holding their heads and running around, throwing weapons and armor everywhere, and they can't wait to take off their stripes to run neatly.

But no matter how fast a man runs, he can't go faster than a crossbow arrow.

The white-robed soldiers put down their spears in a hurry, picked up the mountain-destroying crossbows, aimed at the backs of the undulating deserters of the Great Western Army, pulled the crossbow machine one after another, and harvested the lives one by one.

Zu Bian carried the bird commander on his back, held the ghost head knife high, and led a group of cavalry to gallop vertically and horizontally, while slashing and killing the stragglers running in front, while shouting: "Those who kneel on the ground will not be killed, and those who surrender will not be killed!" ”

This trick was very effective, under the threat of blood and knives, many of the Daxi soldiers who ran away shook their legs and knelt down, and were driven together by the Kuizhou army foot soldiers who caught up behind, and one by one they took off their own robes and tied their hands, strung them together in a long string, and went to Longquan Mountain.

Zubian proudly took Wang Huan's order and escorted the prisoners, at this time Li Tingyu also rode his horse to the battlefield, he took the Lin Zi battalion just in the battlefield to clean and defeat the cavalry, those dead people and horses, whether it is armor or weapons, are good things, enough to arm hundreds of people, but they can't just be lost.

"Hahaha, Lord Commander, this time it can be earned, our army has only a hundred dead and few wounded, but it has defeated Liu Jinzhong tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, a big victory, a big victory!" Before he approached Wang Huan's side, the iconic huge voice came, and Li Tingyu's laughter was louder than the gunfire of the bird commander: "Sure enough, Xiao Zhuge is worthy of it, the trained soldiers are a few points more elite than the white pole soldiers before the last general." ”

Wang Huan knew Li Tingyu's temper, but he smiled slightly, and said: "The general doesn't have to be humble, the white pole soldiers are unparalleled in the world, and today's Kuizhou Army is born from the white pole soldiers, without the white pole soldiers to lay the foundation, the Kuizhou Army cannot be what it is today." ”

Li Tingyu waved his hand, and was not entangled in the routine of the two of them patting each other's ass, and then said excitedly: "Liu Jinzhong, I think he is giving us a gift, his cavalry is wearing good armor, the iron blade, the helmet, they are all croaking, and the sabre used is also made of stainless steel, and it is a human head with a knife, extremely sharp, this guy, where did he get so many good things, we can make a lot of money, wahahaha." ”

He couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and he couldn't even say the rest of the words, but fortunately, at this time, Zhang Jianchun, the head of the Qianzong who belonged to Wang Huanfeng's word camp, came over, this young and sturdy man, his face was covered with sweat and blood, but he was full of energy, and the joy after the victory bloomed on his face, which looked full of masculinity.

"Junmen, the last general counted the battlefield, plus the results of the battle on Li Ying's side, a total of more than 4,500 people were killed in this battle, more than 4,300 thieves were captured, and countless weapons and armor were captured. Zhang Jianchun has the demeanor of a general, although he is as excited as Li Tingyu, but he is not as happy as Li Tingyu and can't keep his mouth shut, let alone get carried away like Zu Bian, he still stands on the ground with a fist and answers, and it can be seen that there is still the clarity that a general should have.

The officers under Wang Huan, except for senior officers at the battalion general level like Li Tingyu and Ma Xintian, the rest were all like ordinary soldiers, fighting in the gun array on foot, even if they were thousands of generals like Zhang Jianchun, so Zhang Jianchun's body was full of blood, which was the result of personally carrying a gun.

Wang Huan admires Zhang Jianchun's personality very much, this guy has a fight with Ma Xintian's calmness, but he is different from Ma Xintian's poker face and iceberg personality, he is very humane, happy when he should be happy, calm when he should be calm, and his emotional intelligence is very high.

"Okay, you work harder, send the captured baggage back to Longquan Mountain, count and make a book, these weapons, we will still be of great use in the future." Wang Huan approvingly.

Zhang Jianchun had to be ordered to leave, and his calm appearance made Li Tingyu can't help but let out a "huh", looking at his back and saying to Wang Huan in surprise: "This kid is good, he is very calm, he is not arrogant in victory, he will not be discouraged if he loses, he is a good seedling, Lord Commander, you have picked up a treasure." ”

Wang Huan said: "The general is bad, this person was originally the son of Zhang Ling, the deputy general of Sichuan, because his father was killed, he fled to the stone pillar, and he became a thousand generals under me, if Zhang Ling is still there, he should already be a guerrilla general." ”

Li Tingyu let out an "oh" abruptly, and then leaned closer and said: "In this case, it is better to transfer him to my camp, after the famous family, it is natural for me to cultivate and cultivate, and in the future, he may be more powerful than his father, and make a capable general for adults." ”

Wang Huan looked at him speechlessly, and sighed: "General, you already have Li Yan, you won't give me anyone I ask for if I ask you for it, this will want to dig me again, that's not good, in the future, this Fengzi camp may have to be handed over to him." ”

Li Tingyu smashed his mouth regretfully and defended: "Who thinks that there are many people under his hands who can fight? Besides, Li Yan's house is not yet a climate, and he has to let the old man train and train, and when it is completed in the future, he will be left alone, but everyone is yours, sooner or later, don't worry about it. ”

Wang Huan reached out and took the kettle from his waist, took a sip, threw it to Li Tingyu casually, and said with a smile: "What kind of heart?" General Yu Wang Huan, that is the friendship of life, I understand your hard work, I just want to train a few more capable people for the Kuizhou army, don't worry, I won't wait long, I will release people to your camp for training, and you don't have to be afraid of trouble when the time comes. ”

Li Tingyu caught the kettle with both hands and laughed: "Okay, the old man copied a glance, but his eyes were not affected, and the adults let people come over as much as they wanted, so that I could also show my face in front of the young people." ”

The two laughed, all the way to the walled city of Longquan Mountain, Zhongxin Horse Xing, leaving Zhang Jianchun's thousand-man team to continue to clean up on the battlefield, they want to recover the arrows, after all, the mountain destroying crossbow consumes a lot of arrows in one shot, and it would be too wasteful not to recycle.

The soldiers of Kuizhou were smiling, and even the small number of sergeants left behind at the head of Longquan Mountain were also happy, but there was only one person, sitting on the steps of the arrow tower at the head of the city with a sad face, listless.

This person is Ma Wannian, Wang Huan was worried that he was the only seedling of the Ma family, for fear that he would have an accident, so he left him at the head of the city to defend the city, this is the most boring job, the Great Western Army did not touch the skin of the city wall from beginning to end, he did nothing except beat the war drums for a long time and shouted cheering for a long time.

He pondered how to ask Wang Huan, he also wanted to make military merits, he didn't want to be a prince of the peace, and after staying up to Qin Liangyu, he would be a consolation envoy, guarding the stone pillar and sitting in the well to watch the sky.

Wang Huan didn't know what this square-faced young man was thinking, and when he returned to the mountain city, he immediately ordered Li Tingyu to send two thousand-strong teams to escort the captured more than 4,000 people back to Chongqing Mansion and hand them over to Meng Zhiyu and Xu Tiezhu, who would then send people to send the soldiers to the deep mountains of Shizhu in batches to mine.

Wang Huan will not kill and surrender, but he will not rest assured that he will use the surrender army to join his Kuizhou army, let alone let them return to their hometown like the Holy Mother, these soldiers have everything, and letting them out will only increase the bandits and horses, and they will never tolerate the bandits on their own territory, and there is a shortage of people in the mine. After three or five years, if these people behave well, they can also become civilians, they can be released to do whatever they want, they can go home from farming and business, and Wang Huan will not let them stay in the pit for the rest of their lives and die of old age.

And those weapons and armor, all handed over to Meng Zhiyu and Xu Tiezhu, the state capital under their rule, have set up a regimental training, by the wounded soldiers in the Kuizhou army or the old after retirement, responsible for maintaining law and order, anti-theft and people, because the salary is sufficient, the grain and rice are returned, and the people are gathered, and there is no shortage of people, but there is a lack of weapons and armor, and these seized are just to solve their urgent needs.

Then, Wang Huan sent Zu Bian and Ma Long, each with their own team of 1,000 people, to take advantage of the dark night of the same day to go to Shehong County.

Because Zhang Daqi, the garrison officer of Shehong, died in the chaotic army, although Liu Jinzhong's men and horses escaped from the guerrilla attacks of several generals, they were frightened birds, and they did not dare to stay in Shehong at all, and ran away with a smoke, so there was no one to defend the county seat of Shehong, and even the county commander appointed by Daxi Guo also learned that Liu Jinzhong died in vain, and he rolled up the silver taels in the treasury and ran away before it was dark.

The city was already sparsely populated, and the people who were afraid of the military disaster fled one after another, and the remaining ones who did not leave for various reasons also hid at home tremblingly, closed the door and blew the lamp, and did not dare to breathe. So that night, there was no sound in the county, not even a dog barked, and it was as lifeless as a ghost town.

Zubian and Ma Long stabbed torches, and poured in from the unclosed city gate in a hurry, and went straight to the official warehouse of Shooting Hong, Wang Huan interrogated several captured generals of the Great Western Army, and there was a grain and grass of Liu Jinzhong's army in the official warehouse, because this guy planned to consume it here for a long time, so he hoarded a large amount of food needed by 10,000 people, and he was defeated in a hurry, and the fleeing county commander and others only cared about the gold and silver property, and the food was heavy, but no one cared about it for the time being, which was cheap Wang Huan.

As casual as in their own homes, Zubian and Ma Long shouted at their men who drove the cart to load bags of grain into the car, not even a single piece of rice was spared, and all of them were pulled back to Longquan Mountain. It was a small county town that kept going all night, until it was almost dawn, when the grain in the official warehouse was finished, and the two people left with the rest of the people.

Poor people who shot floods, they were so noisy that they didn't dare to sleep all night, and they listened to the propaganda of the rough men all night long.

The grain that was pulled away was about more than 3,000 buckets, enough for Wang Huan's 6,000 soldiers to eat for several months.

With these grains, the Kuizhou army, which originally had to rely on transporting grain and grass along the rugged official road from Chongqing Prefecture, had no worries, and Wang Huan insisted on nailing to Longquan Mountain and waiting for the Qing army to enter Hanzhong's plan, and then there was no barrier.

And Li Dingguo, the king of Anxi of the Great Western Army, was on his way from Chengdu to Tongchuan Prefecture at the moment, and when he got the news that Liu Jinzhong's entire army had been annihilated and he himself was killed by a single shot, he was shocked.

He thought that the Ming army would be in full swing, and took advantage of the victorious division to wave the army westward, and rushed directly towards him, and hurriedly chose a terrain on the side of the road, set up camp and waited, but waited left and right and did not see the Ming army coming, and it took two days to figure out that the Ming army did not come down the mountain at all, and was still guarding Longquan Mountain at this time.

When Li Dingguo received the news, he was stunned at first, and then ordered the whole army to march quickly, and the 16 battalions with a total of 23,000 men walked for two days, and on the third day, when it was dark, they entered Shehong County, camped and settled down.

Without waiting for the Chinese army to arrange the line, Li Dingguo went up to the loess city wall, and looked at Longquan Mountain from the position where Liu Jinzhong once stood, his brows furrowed deeply.

In the twilight of the evening, the Longquan Mountain in the distance is hidden in a layer of light mist, and in the Sichuan Basin in the deep winter, it is very easy to have water mist at night, and the fog obscures the vision, so that Longquan Mountain only faintly reveals the black outline in the field of vision, even if Li Dingguo has excellent eyesight, he can not see the walled city on the mountain.

Li Dingguo is only thirty years old, but he has been weathered, he almost starved to death in the countryside of Shaanxi when he was a teenager, and the hardships of a long time have given him a rock-like tenacity, and the perennial battle has given him the meticulous and courageous courage to see the fire, and the face that was blown as rough as a rock by the west wind has a heroic spirit, and the eyes that are bright as stars make his inner strength undoubtedly revealed.

At this moment, he stood solemnly in the city tower, the cool breeze was blowing, and every other section of the city wall around him, there were several strong black shadows standing on the wall, which were sergeants standing guard. The hustle and bustle of camping in the city came faintly, adding a touch of liveliness to the silent night, looking at the mountains in the distance, taking a deep breath, Li Dingguo frowned.

"What is the purpose of the Ming army? Kill the generals but not take the city, kill people but not capture the people, and even the rich people in the city are not disturbed, is this still the Ming army? ”

He thought to himself, puzzled, and shook his head: "I heard that the leader of the army is Wang Huan, the chief soldier of Kuizhou, this son is young, he has never heard of it before, maybe he is a puppet, the real general, I am afraid it is still the famous Li Tingyu, and Li Tingyu has a fierce personality, is known for his bravery, and is not very good at conspiracy and trickery, so what does he mean by making such a play?" Could it be that they were afraid of the prestige of my great Xi'anxi king and the Su Guard, and retreated? ”

Thinking of this, he smiled self-deprecatingly and denied this idea: "If he is really afraid, he will not come, a person who can defeat Liu Jinzhong's 10,000 troops and horses to the annihilation of the whole army cannot be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, there must be a reason why the Ming army does this!" ”

But why? Li Dingguo thought about it for a long time, but he didn't gain anything except that his head and body were covered with water droplets in the mist.

He was a little frustrated, his shoulders moved, his body shook off a drop of water, and he decided to hold his troops tomorrow and wait and see before talking about anything else.

The night was a little cold, the soldiers walked up lightly, put on a fur cloak for him, Li Dingguo recalled from his contemplation, felt that it was useless to stand like this, and walked down the city wall, when he went down, he looked at the direction of Longquan Mountain again, and in his confused eyes, a trace of essence suddenly flashed: "Could it be that the inexplicable actions of the Ming army were all done by the general soldier named Wang Huan?" ”

This thought flashed, he couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, amused that he had such a ridiculous idea, Li Tingyu was a fierce general, how could he command him with such a young hairy head? Impossible, impossible.
