Chapter 106: The Battle Under Yunyang County

As soon as Wang Peng, the commander of the third battalion, left with the two bidders, the entire Kuizhou capital city became an empty city. The left army easily captured the capital city of Kuizhou. This made Zuo Liangyu a little unexpected, of course he knew that Kuizhou Mansion was a famous military fortress in eastern Sichuan, and it was also a fortified city that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Because of this, he did not rush to attack the city, but waited for the army to bring artillery and other siege weapons and prepare them before preparing for the siege.

Zuo Liangyu, who was already preparing for a big battle in the capital city of Kuizhou, was now like a punch smashed on cotton, and he was anxious to find the main force of the thief army for a decisive battle, and as soon as he occupied the capital city of Kuizhou, he was in a hurry to order Jin Shenghuan to march south to Yunyang, Wanxian and other important towns, and at the same time ordered Zhang Yingyuan to speed up the march towards Qianxi, and his main army did not stay in the capital of Kuizhou for too long and impatiently waved his army eastward. The purpose is to find the main force of the thief army as soon as possible and seek a decisive battle.

"Marshal, General Jin sent someone to send news that the thief leader Yang Ming has now fled to Yunyang County", just when Zuo Liangyu and several literati who accompanied the army laughed at the Han army for being as timid as a mouse, so that when they saw him, the 100,000 army fled in all directions like a chicken and a dog, a scout cavalry ran over and informed Zuo Liangyu of Yang Ming's whereabouts.

When Zuo Liangyu heard this, he was immediately excited, and hurriedly led the army to Yunyang County. In this way, Zuo Liangyu's infantry army and Jin Shenghuan's iron cavalry led a total of 100,000 pressed towards Yunyang County, while Zhang Yingyuan's more than 20,000 people rushed to Qianxi, the two sides one north and one south, and the distance between them was getting bigger and bigger, Zuo Liangyu, who was eager to fight a decisive battle with the Han army, did not be alert to any danger Zhang Yingyuan's department, but also urged Zhang Yingyuan to take Qianxi as soon as possible, and then attack Dongxiang County, the old nest of the Han army, from the north and south.

Zuo Liangyu, the fierce tiger, pounced on Kuizhou Mansion City with a mouth full of fangs, but it was empty, and now when he heard that the thief leader Yang Ming was in Yunyang, he hurriedly pounced on Yunyang County with his teeth and claws. But Zuo Liangyu didn't know that when he once again gathered strength and was ready to take down the thief leader Yang Ming in Yunyang County in one fell swoop, Yang Ming had already left Yunyang County.

However, this time, the Han army did not release Zuo Liangyu's pigeons again, although Yang Ming left Yunyang County, but Cao Laosan, the general of the third battalion, stayed here with the three standard men. Therefore, when Zuo Liangyu and Jin Shenghuan and other 100,000 soldiers came to Yunyang City, the city wall was not empty, and Cao Laosan and other 3,000 soldiers were already standing on the city wall with loaded guns and waiting for them.

"Grandma, why did this left army come so much, Wang Peng's guy couldn't have abandoned the city and fled, and led all the left army here", Cao Laosan took a sip as he spoke, and saw that the left army column was very loose, so he hurriedly said: "Leizi, while the enemy is not stable, you take the third standard to rush him for a while, Lao Tzu wants to let these arrogant guys teach a long lesson, and they don't know how to camp and set up camp when they are rooted in the city wall!" ”

"Yes!"

Shi Lei, as the head of the third team of the original third standard, is an old subordinate who came out with Cao Laosan, Li Guangtian and other generals of the three standard systems, and is the most brave and good at fighting, and the third standard is developed from the original third standard land three teams, the team has played a majestic style in the second self-defense battle in Hanjia Village, and has always dared to attack the enemy several times, and it is also the most courageous unit of the third battalion, and all are equipped with the latest Han guns.

Therefore, Cao Laosan gave an order, and the third standard, which had been held back for a long time, was not frightened by the dense left army in front of him, on the contrary, they were even more excited, these soldiers, especially the grassroots commanders, were mostly veterans of the Han army.

"Lean forward, pull the flint, and be ready!" Shi Lei half-bent over and shouted and ran forward.

Yunyang County is located in the northeast of the Sichuan Basin, and in the southwest of Kuizhou Prefecture, the terrain is mostly hilly and gentle slopes and the vegetation is mostly shrubs, the third standard soldiers who shuttled during the period were not found by the left army, and the advance speed was very fast, in the low hills and ridges between the vigorous and rapid galloping and jumping, less than half an hour, they all catted into a bush closest to the front of the left army, and then raised their guns to shoot at the left army.

In an instant, countless left officers and soldiers were directly knocked to the ground by iron bullets under the tempering of the defense, but they didn't even see the opponent, and just when they were panicking, another row of iron bullets overturned, and these left troops were hit to the ground and had to retreat, and gradually squeezed into a ball, and at this time, the officers of the front left army were in a hurry to inform Zuo Liangyu in the rear of the news.

When Shi Lei saw that the left army was shrinking into a group, he simply rushed out of the bushes with the soldiers of the three standards, and began to throw earth-shaking thunder at the left officers and soldiers who were squeezed into a group. Many of the left troops rolled in the field with the splashed dirt at once, and within half an hour there were countless stumps, broken legs, and incessant wails in front of them.

At this time, the left army found that there were thieves rushing in, and as soon as they came into contact, they were beaten with blue noses and swollen faces, which made the left officers and soldiers who had nourished their arrogance very ashamed, and they rushed over one by one with their spears, and the archers were also in a hurry to line up to shoot, and even the firearms battalion began to return the color to the Han army, and the iron bullets fired by tens of thousands of arquebuses were like hail and overturned towards the soldiers of the third standard.

The soldiers of the third standard simply drew their bayonets, scattered and rushed into the camp of the left army, and slashed and stabbed at these left troops. What seemed to be scattered was actually broken into pieces, and each commander and his comrades attacked the camp of the left army in an organized and cooperative manner, and many of the left army were pierced to the ground by the blades of the soldiers before they could counterattack. The firearms battalion of the left army was also not easy to attack on the battlefield mixed with the enemy and our troops, and for a while they could only rely on foot soldiers to fight against the soldiers of the third standard.

However, this is exactly the appetite of the third standard soldiers, they are all skilled assassination skills of the soldiers, and because most of them are brave and desperate mountain people, one by one they are simply not afraid of death, they do not care about what damage the enemy will cause to themselves, in their eyes, they only know how to cause damage to the enemy, some let the enemy's spear pierce their waist and cut off the enemy's head with a knife, and there are also those who hand over the long knife to their comrades to resist, and they directly pounce on the enemy and bite the enemy's throat. It didn't take long for these warriors to become a blur of flesh and blood, and they all looked like evil spirits that had just come out of hell, and they scared some of the left troops back again and again.

Zuo Liangyu saw that the army in front of him had been dispersed, so he had no choice but to order the army to retreat, and at the same time ordered Jin Shenghuan's iron cavalry to rush over. Zuo Liangyu didn't expect to encounter such a strong thief army in Yunyang County, and it was not good to despise the thief army in front of him for a while, and he was busy organizing the army to counterattack, and the officers and soldiers of Zuo were not as cowardly and rotten as the Sichuan army, on the contrary, once they recovered their strength, they could still restore order in the fastest time.

"Blow the trumpet and let the third bidder come back!"

Cao Laosan saw that the left army began to become organized from disorder and disorder, and the two iron cavalry had been outflanked like two pincers towards the third standard that was fighting with the left army, and a shield wall with a height of one zhang had been erected behind the left army's foot soldiers, and the sharp spears were inserted in the gap between the shields like hedgehogs waiting for the three standard soldiers to hit with **, so he immediately ordered the third standard to retreat.

The third standard and the left army were in full swing, and many of the soldiers had already killed the red eyes, but now they let them retreat, just like Yaxing who had disturbed them, one by one scolded and scolded and insisted on killing a few more lives before slowly retreating. After the third standard was withdrawn to the city, the Jin Shenghuan Department of the Left Army had also been outflanked, and Zuo Liangyu's infantry army had also restored order.
