Chapter 347: Zhang Yao is very simple
Chapter 347 Zhang Yao is very simple
"Let go of Liu Mingchuan!" Although he was a little puzzled by Yang Dongfang's order, Hu Gan still asked people to go to Wuji County to inform the pursuing troops not to bite Liu Mingchuan too tightly, but before the order was sent out, there was a quick horse to report.
"Commander! The cavalry regiment of the 12th Brigade reported that they intercepted Liu Mingchuan's headquarters at the Dasha River, and after the commander of the 13th Regiment heard about it, he had already crossed the Mudao River to pursue it, and it was estimated that the 113th Regiment would also chase him. ”
"No, it's such a coincidence, it seems that Liu Mingchuan's luck is not good enough!" Hu Gan shook his head, and he really wanted the 13th Regiment and the Cavalry Regiment to kill Liu Mingchuan, but he didn't do anything else, after all, Yang Dongfang's order was there, so he didn't send someone to inform the 13th Regiment in addition, but informed the subordinates of Xinle County that they could attack Dingzhou and fight until Bowang County.
Late at night! Liu Mingchuan only crossed a small part, about 2,000 people, and at this time, a thousand generals hurriedly came over: "The military gate is not good, the infantry of the New People's Army has arrived." ”
Liu Mingchuan asked anxiously: "How many people came and where did they come from?" ”
Mr. Qian replied: "It seems to be from the direction of Shenze County, how many people can't see it." ”
After hearing this, Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, according to Tang Dingkui's report, the New People's Army in the direction of Shenze County is the strength of one regiment, and it must leave at least one battalion of troops, so it is a little more than a thousand.
But then someone came to report: "Junmen, the cavalry of a battalion of the New People's Army went downstream." ”
Now he was in a hurry and went downstream, obviously to cross the river, and the New People's Army wanted to preemptively bury a flag on the other side of the river and force himself with cavalry.
This is the time to make a decision, you can't hesitate, otherwise after dawn, more and more of the new people's army will be entangled in cavalry when they are walking, and they can also leave here, gritted their teeth, and looked at the troops on the other side with great reluctance, Liu Mingchuan didn't have too much to say:
"Let's go!"
With 2,000 generals, Liu Mingchuan left Tang Dingkui to control the troops on the other side and left quietly.
However, although he walked hidden, but because of the arrival of the 113th Regiment of the New People's Army and exposed, it turned out that seeing countless New People's Army from Wuji County, Tang Dingkui was a little panicked, and sent someone to cross the river to report and ask for instructions, but most of the troops on the north bank left, and only Liu Xia was empty.
This news was transmitted back to the south bank, and the Huai army, which was already unstable, was completely disappointed with the Manchu Qing Dynasty and took the initiative to surrender to the New People's Army, after all, they were also a suffering and poor class, and they had also heard the propaganda of the New People's Army, and the seeds in their hearts sprouted and grew, and finally grew into a big tree.
This was something that the 13th Regiment Commander and the 113th Regiment Commander did not expect, while they let people receive prisoners, they also asked Li Yutai to discuss whether to chase Liu Mingchuan overnight.
The battalion and regiment-level officers of the 13th Regiment and the 113th Regiment all said that they would send some of them to chase after them, and they must catch Liu Mingchuan, who is an important person.
Li Yuntai said that it is not easy to chase at night, they are not familiar with the people in this area, they will get lost at night, and it will be a little late tomorrow to chase, and there is a battalion of Niu Hongsheng chasing enough for Liu Mingchuan to drink a pot.
Everyone listened to this and gave up, but then Li Yuntai smiled evilly and proposed: "We don't chase Liu Mingchuan, in fact, we can go to Zhang Yao, this guy obviously wants to preserve his strength, if he hears that our side has defeated Liu Mingchuan, he will definitely continue to retreat north, so we took advantage of the fact that he didn't know the news, and sent a regiment to the lower reaches of the Hutuo River to intercept his back road." ”
The idea is changed, and everyone's eyes are bright, this proposal is good, and the feasibility is great.
The next thing is to discuss the question of which regiment to send, this is a credit, who doesn't want to fight for it, but in the end, the task was given to the two battalions of the 113th regiment, plus Li Yuntai and his cavalry battalion.
The reason is that the 113th Regiment and the cavalry battalion arrived here first, and they were physically competent for the conditions of night walking, and they tried to reach their destination at dawn.
Just before leaving, Hu Gan's signal soldiers chased after them, and everyone was even more confident, they didn't have much interest in Liu Mingchuan, and they were not afraid of Commander Hu reprimanding them.
Following! After dawn, Zhang Yao let his subordinates eat, and he had a premonition that danger was coming, if he wasn't afraid of leaving too many excuses for Liu Ming to pass on a copy of him, he didn't want to stay.
Sure enough, it was quickly predicted, and several Tanma reported one after another, saying that the New People's Army in the east was advancing to Cangzhou.
This is good news, not bad, proving that he is safe, and the New People's Army has no time to chase him now.
Then news came from the west that the Huai army was defeated in Shenze County, and the 113th Regiment of the New People's Army pursued the Huai army, apparently to block Liu Mingchuan.
This made him a little refreshed, why did Liu Mingchuan that kid not have much ability, and he was promoted very quickly, obviously he Zhang Yao was extremely unconvinced, you must know that following the prince back then, he Zhang Yao defeated how many twisted troops in one go, 300,000 twisted troops, and more than 100,000 surrendered alone, what kind of record is this.
As a result, the court knocked down the mortal dust on the grounds that he was illiterate, and he was not promoted, what is the use of such a court guarantee, Zhang Yao couldn't help touching the illiterate Ding seal hanging on his waist.
But he hadn't been thinking for long before someone came to report it.
"My lord, the New People's Army has appeared in our north, and the crossing of the Hutuo River has been robbed by the New People's Army, and our people have either been killed or surrendered."
"What?" Zhang Yao gasped, secretly screamed badly, hurriedly went out of the city to check, and rode a horse to find that the New People's Army on the other side of the river turned out to be the 113th Regiment, and the whole person was stupid.
"How could this be, didn't the 113 regiment go to block Liu Mingchuan? Could it be that they have resorted to a trick to hide the sky and the sea and darken, and the purpose has always been me, but this is too unreasonable, and their speed is moving too fast. Sure enough, it's a strong team. Sighing slightly, Zhang Yao shook his head and said, his subordinates asked what to do now, they seemed to be surrounded by the New People's Army and blocked in Raoyang.
"What to do! Of course, it is to raise the flag and return to the New People's Army, and we will revolt on the spot! With a lot of thoughts, Zhang Yao said like this, he understands very well that the soldiers under his command, although many of them are the children of Hunan and Chu, he is the Chu army system, but the army of more than 10,000 people, there are seven layers of the original twist army, once the news spreads, maybe someone will kill the official and make trouble.
It is better to take advantage of this to surrender, believing that with his ability, he can at least get out with the current military strength, which is also one of the reasons why he has not fought to the death with the New People's Army.
For Zhang Yao's surrender, the 113th regiment is welcome, it is really good to surrender without a fight, but Li Yuntai is not very happy, he was originally a twisted army, and Zhang Yao is a new hatred and an old hatred, he proposed to cut off Zhang Yao's back road, it is nothing more than a little careful thinking about the communiqué and personal vendetta, how could I think that Zhang Yao was so tough before, and in the face of several guys who dared to fight in the twisted army, this time he actually attacked the new people's army cleanly.
This made him punch the cotton, very uncomfortable, and he didn't go to Raoyang County to receive the surrender salute, turned around and ran to the river with the cavalry, and then taught the green battalion guarding here a hard lesson.
Not to mention Zhang Yao and Li Yuntai, the main Yang Dongfang Zhengzheng and Dong Haichuan and other people from all over the military were leisurely riding horses to Tianjin, running against the wind to enjoy the scenery on the official road of Beijing and Tianjin at this time.
Outside is the high reeds and panic grass, and the later generations that are very different, only to enter Tianjin, see the lively street, can find a little comfort.
