Zheng Yunming coldly swept away this group of arrogant soldiers and fierce generals who were rampant in Shu, and shouted loudly: "Since you are at my command, there are a few things that Ben Shuai has to explain in advance!" The official army is an army that guards the land and guards the border supported by the people, not bandits who rob houses and houses! From now on, there will be those who plunder the villages, beheaded! There are strong buyers and strong sellers, chop! If there is a captive of the people's husband, behead! If you set up a card to buy road money without permission, cut it! ”

He paused, saw beads of sweat dripping from Wang Kui's forehead, and raised his voice even more and said, "There are people who arbitrarily kidnap civilians into the camp, behead!" ”

His slightly sharp and high-pitched voice echoed in the air, and Wang Kui's thousands of military horses did not dare to come out, listening to the young commander's lecture in a proper manner.

"Those who don't retreat when they hear the gold, slash! Those who don't hear the drum will be killed! Those who are in rebellion, slash! Those who despise their superiors will be killed! Contenders, slash! Kill the good and take the merit, slash! Deduct military salaries for the generals, behead! Meritorious hiding, chop! There has been a cover-up, slash! But there are those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and do not save their allies, they will be killed immediately before the battle, and they will be followed by the deputy general! ”

Zheng Yunming's fierce and vicious appearance, many years later, when a veteran of Shuzhong mentioned it, they all shuddered.

"Today is not for the sake of killing, but for the sake of life! Mongolia is a fierce enemy, a powerful enemy that has never been seen in a thousand years, if you don't strictly discipline and block the place, how can you compete with millions of fierce iron horsemen on the battlefield! I have often heard people say that the food of the king is the matter of loyalty. Sacrifice your life for the country, a soldier's vocation! But today I will give you a chance, if you don't want to eat this military ration, you can take off your battle robe and leave now! ”

His words are good, thousands of elite troops behind him are pressing, whoever dares to say go will leave, Wang Kui's subordinates are silent, I don't know what this newcomer will do with themselves, although they are arrogant, they actually know what they have done, and Wang Kui usually governs the army harshly and harshly, and no subordinate is really willing to offend this seemingly unprovoked official for him.

Zheng Yunming slowly glanced around at the army, and shouted loudly: "Since no one is willing to leave the team, this commander has the right to take you as if you are promising to abide by military regulations, then, the next time someone dares to violate military law and be sent to the execution ground, don't complain that this commander is ruthless!" ”

He waved his hand and shouted, "Return to Jiading City immediately!" ”

The army returned to the city, and the officials greeted Zheng Yunming and came to the main hall of the government to sit down. Zheng Yunming looked at Wang Kui under the seat, he had already lost his previous arrogance, like a wilted eggplant, nesting on a chair. smiled in his heart, and asked Wang Kui: "I came to Sichuan, I don't know how many soldiers can fight in Sichuan, Wang is a famous general in Western Shu, and he must know the truth well, please tell Zheng Yunming in detail." ”

When Wang Kui reached this point, he no longer dared to underestimate Zheng Yunming, so he had to answer honestly: "Although there are troops in Sichuan, they are now scattered everywhere, each holding one place, and they can't fight against the Mongol army. Jinzhou Metropolitan and Yanwei are still stationed in Jinzhou, and Qin Zhongxiao, the commander of the Xiongwei Army, is currently in Zizhou, plus my Xiongbian Army, these people have a little combat strength, in addition, Li Xianzhong, the capital of Xingyuan, still has thousands of remnants, and he is currently stationed in Mianzhou, handed over to Zhang Zhen, the former head of his subordinates, and this Zhang Hanzi is a capable fighter. ”

"Hmm." Zheng Yunming replied and asked, "What else?" ”

"There is no more army besides this, only a few young sergeants are stationed in various places, and they cannot be counted on in the battle of Sesame." Wang Kui's mood calmed down a little, and he became a little bolder in speaking: "Wang Shixian is still stationed in Puzhou on that dog day, and the officials should not be underestimated, they only need to stick to Jiading Mansion and wait for Wang Shixian to return north on his own." ”

Zheng Yunming laughed: "The public doesn't know, our army's tactics are slightly different from other armies. ”

He turned his head and asked Wang Dengdao, "Jing Song, what do you say should be done next?" ”

Wang Deng said without thinking: "Pull out the camp and advance, approach the enemy army, enter Puzhou first, and then track Wang Shixian's troops along the way." Neither attack, nor retreat, harassing on the road, waiting for the right moment. ”

Wang Kui exclaimed: "The officials don't know, from Jiading Mansion to the north, all the way is flat. It is the terrain where Wang Shixian's cavalry shows its might, and most of the officers carry it are infantry troops, once they encounter Wang Shixian in the wilderness, how to face it? ”

"The method of our army's march is slightly different from that of ordinary armies." Zheng Yunming said: "Do you dare to go with me to break the captivity?" ”

Wang Kui had the heart to refuse, but Zheng Yunming was the commander of the capital, and his rank was higher than his own, and Peng Daya had already informed him in a letter that Zheng Dutong had come to protect Sichuan on the orders of the Privy Council, and he exercised cheap command wherever he went, and the generals everywhere could not disobey. If he doesn't go, won't he be a blatant disobedience? If Zheng Yunming is alone, he is just a white-faced scholar. But his army is now all over the city and outside, how dare he disobey his orders, and in his anxiety, he has to keep looking at Zhang Yimu, the prefect of Jiading.

Zhang Yimu sighed in his heart, this Wang Yasha is powerful and blessed on weekdays, how rampant. Now that I see the arrival of the more horizontal, I am as obedient as a kitten, not at all like the past. But this Wang Yaksha is the only remaining backbone general in Western Shu after all, and he can't help but protect him. So he opened his mouth and said: "The Tartar cavalry comes and goes like the wind, what if after pacifying and leaving, Wang Shixian takes the opportunity to attack Jiading?" This government asks to appease the king to rule in Jiading to calm the hearts of the people. ”

Wang Kuilian claimed that it was, and said: "I asked my subordinates to take Liu Fang with 2,000 elites to go with the petty officials, which can help the officials." ”

Zheng Yunming didn't originally want to take Wang Kui all the way, with Wang Kui by his side, it would get in the way of doing things. Now that the army of Xishu has joined the headquarters, the geography of the guide is not a problem, and there is the intention of uniting the main army of the guest army, and the purpose has been achieved. So he turned to another question of concern: "Sichuan has been living together since ancient times, and there are no brave and good fighters among these outsiders?" ”

Sichuan is bordered by four Yi, with the Tubo Dangxiang tribe in the north, the snow-capped mountains of Qingtangsong, Pan, and Tubo in the west, and the large and small southwestern Yi in the south, and even in the hinterland of Chengdu and Chongqing, there are also a large number of bureaucrats living together. Sichuan's army has a tradition of recruiting barbarians to serve in the army since Wuhou. Wang Kui responded: "Why not? If you use barbarians, there is a ready-made army that can be mobilized, the Banzhou Sizhou place in eastern Sichuan has been the place where the barbarian king has lived since ancient times, and the Banzhou pacification makes Yang Price hereditary pacification envoys, and there are all the names of the majestic army in eastern Sichuan, he calls in Banzhou, there are tens of thousands of barbarian soldiers available, why do you need to recruit soldiers and horses from other places? ”

Banzhou Yang, is one of the largest tribes in the southwest Yi, the Yang family is a native of Hedong Han, because in the Tang Dynasty to expel the Nanzhao military horses entrenched in Banzhou, was named Banzhou Marquis, hereditary position. Song followed. Banzhou is a vast land of thousands of miles, there are many Tibetan tribes, and there are tens of thousands of barbarian soldiers at one call, and Zheng Yunming also believes that they have such ability. Now that the war is approaching Banzhou, it is reasonable to recruit the Banzhou army to participate in the war. However, even if it is an internal annex like the Southwest Yi, it is not a simple matter to want to recruit it. Zheng Yunming can only deal with it later, and all his energy now is to be used to deal with the current enemy, Wang Shixian, the commander of Gongchang.

At this time, Wang Shixian was obviously ready to plunder the last vote, and then return north with the captivity. His goal was to enrich Jiading Mansion in southern Sichuan with the benefit of salt and iron. Wu Xincheng's small defeat was only a superficial loss to him, but it also made him see that Wang Kui, the guard general of Jiading, was indeed not easy to match as in the tradition. So he ordered the vanguard officer Fenglong Marshal Wang Jun to lead 2,000 ironclad cavalry as the vanguard, bypassing the city of Puzhou Prefecture and heading straight to Wuxin City.

Wang Shixian was born in a wealthy family in Longnan, and he himself was from the Wang Gu Department. The Ganlong cavalry under his subordinates was very elite and unstoppable. Even the second prince Kuoduan was full of praise for the combat power of his cavalry, believing that it was not an elite unit inferior to the Mongol iron cavalry. Since the attack on Shu with Kuoduan, there has indeed been no opponent along the way. As long as they encountered the Song army in the field along the way, the Ganlong cavalry only had to charge, and the enemy army immediately scattered and broke away, and it was impossible to organize effective resistance at all. Because of this, Wang Jun ordered each team not to make a vigilance deployment, but to divide into several cavalry groups and advance towards Wuxin City separately. He firmly believed that as long as the Song army dared to go out of the city to meet the battle, even if there were three or four thousand people, his cavalry group of four or five hundred people along the way would be enough to contain it, and then all the armies would surround it to ensure total annihilation. This was a trick he used to lure the enemy in order to capture the main force of the Song army.

To the north of Wuxin Castle is a mountain called Mao'er Mountain, where a small river flows in front of the mountain, and there is a wooden bridge over the river to facilitate passage, but other than that, the river is turbulent and inconvenient to wade through. Maoershan chokes the road leading to Wuxin City, so it is also one of the traffic intersections. Wang Jun's vanguard officer led more than 300 horsemen to arrive first. They had not yet approached Mao'er Mountain, and they saw more than 30 horsemen on the other side of the river in the distance, and in Jiading, they were the most advanced Mongolian soldiers, and the vanguard immediately concluded that this small group of cavalry must be the spies of the Song people, and immediately led the headquarters to wave the army to cover the past.

The more than 300 horsemen saw the Mongolian cavalry on the opposite side rolling over, as if they were frightened, turned their horses and fled to the south in a hurry, the vanguard led the army to chase after without thinking about it, after more than 300 horsemen crossed the wooden bridge, they chased the Song cavalry along the road, until the south of Maoer Mountain, here is a forest, the pioneer hesitated, and decided that most of the Song army was cowering in Jiading City, and there would be no ambush here, so he ordered to go into the forest to continue the pursuit.

The result can be imagined, the woods are ambushing the elite soldiers of the Zhenwu army, after the Mongolian cavalry rushed into the forest, immediately was attacked by the ambush soldiers who rushed out from all directions, the Song army poked with spears on the one hand, and set fire guns to frighten the horses, more than 300 horsemen were caught off guard, most of them were captured alive, and one was annihilated. The rest turned around and fled, but now the wooden bridge has already been demolished by the Song army, so it was blocked by the river north of Mao'er Mountain, and the Song army divided troops from the upper and lower reaches of the river to annihilate all the Mongolian cavalry.
