Chapter 103: Rank and File

There are many taboos for the general, but among these taboos, there is one of the deadliest, that is, when the situation is unfavorable to you, let your subordinates know that you are going to run. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The two small flags returned to their respective defensive city walls, and reported what they saw and heard to their bosses word for word, now it's okay, the situation is already very serious, one listens to the two main things, one runs, and the other is about to run, so what the hell are we waiting for, don't run and wait for death? Those people outside are not good people, they died at the base of the city wall, there are two or three thousand people, such a big hatred, if you don't pick your skin, that's a strange thing.

The two hundred households who presided over the defense of the north and south city walls took their own guards and ran away quietly, but no matter how quietly you are, so many people are staring at you, who can you hide? When everyone else is blind?

The main thing ran away, and the hula of the soldiers also ran with him all of a sudden, and the pressure of the 103rd Division attacking the city outside the north and south city walls dropped sharply, and the rolling stones and sassalwood stopped, and the city wall was only 6 meters high, even if you were an old man, it wouldn't take you a few minutes to climb up.

In a few breaths, hundreds of people climbed to the top of the city, and the momentum of rout was formed in an instant.

"Run, all the soldiers have run, don't run and wait for death!"

"Run, I'm going to lose my head if I get caught if I don't run!"

The steps down the city wall are so wide, and when there are more people, someone is pushed down from the side, and the slashing sound of the pursuers behind him makes this person even more panicked, and when he panics, he is even more chaotic, and the stampede inevitably happens.

Some of them were anxious when they saw this situation, and they simply jumped down from the city wall, and some of them saw the thieves approaching, and immediately shouted: "I am a common man, I was forced to come up as an official, and I have never killed anyone!" Then he fell to his knees and surrendered.

There are also soldiers wearing armor who surrender on their knees, but Liu Zheng's soldiers have long been given the order not to accept surrender, not to mention that so many brothers died in the siege before, and the common people can't kill them, but you soldiers and Wang Ba calves who killed their brothers can always kill it, not to mention seeing the surrendered soldiers go up is a knife, and from time to time there are surrendered soldiers who are cut to the ground.

Especially on the western city wall, some people still keep slashing knives at the dead soldiers after cutting down the surrendered soldiers.

This crazy move completely frightened the soldiers who surrendered, and the soldiers who didn't have time to walk down the steps to the city wall jumped down from the city wall like dumplings, after all, the city wall is only more than 6 meters high, and jumping down may not be able to fall to death, but if you don't jump, it's not just as simple as being hacked to death.

"Run, run, they're not people, they're all ghosts, cannibals! None of them are human! ”

……

Liu Zheng walked on the streets of Jiaozhou City, except for the soldiers on the street, he couldn't see the shadows of the people, and Liu Zheng also knew that it was impossible to see the people at this time, so he focused his eyes on the houses on both sides of the street.

Jiaozhou City is poorer than Qingzhou City, which makes Liu Zheng cry out in his heart, this is a coastal city, today's Jiaozhou includes the former Qingdao and Huangdao, both of which are very developed areas in Shandong, especially Qingdao, which is a famous city in the world.

But look at today's Jiaozhou City, thatched houses account for a large part, and the shops on both sides of the street are even fewer.

Of course, Liu Zheng has also seen and understood several particularly large mansions in the city, these people are all smuggler salt dealers, and without thinking about it, Liu Zheng asked someone to copy all these people's homes, and the men were thrown to the mines, and all the women were thrown to the women's camp, and then released after learning to live a self-reliant life.

If you want him to learn what kind of teaching department the imperial court runs, he really can't do it, this thing is too hateful, and what he wants to do is to emancipate his mind, how can he still make these nonsense things.

When they came to Zhizhou Yamen, Qin Haiqing and Zeng Kaiyu had been waiting for a long time, and seeing Qinghai Qing's gloomy face, Liu Zheng knew that he was thinking about something.

Without waiting for the two of them to speak, Liu Zheng smiled and preemptively said: "Okay, Brother Qin, don't be unable to get along with yourself for this little thing, after all, it is the first siege battle in the real sense, it is normal for something to have a problem, if there is no problem, it is a big trouble, the sooner this problem is exposed, the better for us!" ”

Liu Zheng sat down at the back of the public case as he spoke, took the tea brought by the guard, took a sip, and said: "The sooner you find the problem, the sooner you can correct these problems, do you say it's Brother Qin!" ”

Qin Haiqing flicked Ye Zijia and knelt down with a puff: "Lord, Qin is incompetent, he has killed thousands of brothers, please punish him!" ”

Liu Zheng glanced at Qin Haiqing, and then looked at Zeng Kaiyu, Zeng Kaiyu was so shrewd, as soon as he saw Liu Zheng's eyes, he knew that Liu Zheng was dissatisfied with himself, and he was not satisfied with looking at him on the side, so he hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Lord, this time it is not the fault of Division Commander Qin, after all, there are too many recruits in the army, the training time is short, and the casualties are a little bigger, which is inevitable!" ”

Liu Zheng nodded and said: "This is indeed a problem, Brother Qin, get up, this is the last time, there is no rule of kneeling in the army, don't blame me for military law next time!" ”

Qin Haiqing understood the hint in Liu Zheng's words, forget it this time, and next time it will not be so simple to pass the test.

got up and reported to the boxing and said: "Lord, next time, I don't need the lord to use military law, I will screw off my own waste head!" ”

Liu Zheng smiled and said, "Brother Qin, it's serious!" My meaning is very clear, mistakes can be made, but mistakes must be summed up lessons, our lives are valuable, soldiers' lives are also valuable, I can't let you take the lives of soldiers to practice! ”

After saying this, Liu Zheng's expression became serious: "I also made a lot of mistakes this time, and it also made me understand a lot, you can't think about things too simply, even if the soldiers of the imperial court are incompetent, but the determination of the people to defend their homes can make us suffer enough, so if we fight in the future, we must first do a good job of propaganda!" Another point is that the most critical thing in the current army combat is not our decision-makers, but those soldiers, those soldiers' grass-roots officers, such as squad leaders, platoon commanders, such as company commanders, as long as our company commanders, platoon commanders, and squad leaders can understand our intentions and faithfully implement our plans, then defeating the enemy is a breeze, but if our company commanders, platoon commanders, and squad leaders cannot understand the intentions of the decision-makers and faithfully implement the plans of the decision-makers, it will be a huge disaster! In this siege battle, the west gate was bounded by the city gate, and the troops under the southern wall were attacked, and the troops under the northern wall were very chaotic, and the most people died! ”

"How can you get good junior officers? It's not that we teach them how to become grassroots commanders, but they themselves learn on the battlefield of life and death, and those who survive a big war are good seedlings, so I want you to treat these robes who survived well, they are our future! ”

"Do you understand?"

Qin Haiqing and Zeng Kaiyu stood upright, and saluted solemnly: "Yes, lord, we understand!" ”

"Yes!" Liu Zheng nodded and said: "Okay, you all go back, your troops can't leave you, especially Division Commander Zeng, I called you back from the middle of the road, which has already had a lot of impact on your division's battle plan!" ”

"Nothing! My lord, the army is not yet halfway through at this time, and I will be able to catch up soon on a fast horse! Zeng Kaiyu said after saying a word: "That subordinate has retired!" ”

"Good!" Liu Zheng nodded, and then instructed: "Remember what I said to you!" ”

Zeng Kaiyu didn't say anything, just silently saluted and left, Qin Haiqing also saluted and was about to leave, but heard Liu Zheng suddenly call him again.

"Your division, take a day of rest in Jiaozhou for the time being, and set off again tomorrow morning!"

Qin Haiqing suddenly became excited: "Lord, our division can do it!" ”

Liu Zheng looked at Qin Haiqing calmly and said: "I know, you can do it, but your robes, your brothers can't, they are all tired, they fought for a day, many of them were injured, they need to rest, not rush to the front line to die!" ”

After saying this, Liu Zheng left silently, but Qin Haiqing was stunned in place, Liu Zheng's words were very heavy, very, very heavy, almost equivalent to scolding his mother, but Qin Haiqing knew that what Liu Zheng said was not too much, huge casualties, so that his subordinates, his robes, and his brothers felt tired, not only physically tired, but also heartly, they needed time to lick their wounds.

Qin Haiqing lowered his head, clenched his fists, and left silently, he needed a chance, his robes and brothers needed a chance, a chance to turn over, but before this opportunity came, he had to take care of his body and spirit.

Liu Zheng went out of the yamen, and there were guards leading the horse to meet him, riding on the horse, Liu Zheng took the reins to let the horse trot up gently, out of the east city gate, Liu Zheng only a horse whip, galloped the horse wildly.

It is about 90 miles from Jiaozhou to Jimo Guandao, that is, more than 40 kilometers, according to the pace of normal adults, walking slowly and walking 4 kilometers per hour, and it can be reached in ten hours.

Although there are many wounded in this group of 'sheep' driven by Liu Zheng, the speed of walking is not slow, it can be said that it is quite fast, as fast as a panicked dog.

The city that was broken at noon is only two o'clock now, that is, it is exactly 4 o'clock in the afternoon in the later life, and the Malay report said that the fast 'sheep' have run most of the distance, and they escaped more than 20 kilometers in 4 hours, which is slow enough, and the marathon is also 40 kilometers, but the record is more than 2 hours, and people are not fleeing for their lives.

Well, in fact, it's no comparison, after all, our athletes run barrier-free roads, wear special shoes, and there are people along the way who send some energy drinks or something, these people don't dare to take the big road, drill the woods or something to escape, not to mention energy drinks, it's good to have a damn saliva to drink, and can run more than 20 kilometers in 4 hours, Liu Zheng thinks it's already amazing.

If they don't rest, the faster batch of 'sheep' can reach Jimo at about 10 o'clock at night, but it's useless to arrive at night, Jimo will not open the city gate for them, at most they can pull the escaped Sun Yongmin hanging basket on the city wall, after all, Jimo is one of the two counties under the jurisdiction of Jiaozhou, and Sun Yongmin is the top boss of Li Chengyun in Jimo Zhixian County.

Liu Zheng beat the horse and galloped, ran for about half an hour, and saw a small team of people in front, after Liu Zheng pulled the horse, the leader of the team came to Liu Zheng and saluted: "Lord, Zhang Xiaosi, the commander of the 116th Regiment of the 106th Brigade of the 102nd Division, reports to you!"
