Today's second update is delivered! , "Huang Degong, lead the troops to set off immediately!" ”

After Zhang Zhun finished speaking, he turned his head and said to Huang Degong.

"Your Excellency, it's night.........

Huang Degong said hesitantly.

Because of the series of tosses, it is already night. Although it was the middle of June, the moonlight was very good, and the bright moonlight sprinkled on the earth gave people a very warm feeling. But a rapid march at night, as everyone knows, is quite a hard thing to do. Huang Degong was worried that his troops would not be able to withstand such hardships.

"What about the night? Can't travel at night? With such a good moonlight, it's a good time to hurry! Even if there is no moonlight, holding a torch, you still have to hurry! ”

Zhang Zhun said coldly.

"This ......"

Huang Degong wanted to speak and stopped.

"Surprise and attack is the most basic tactical principle, as a chief military officer, it is impossible for you not to understand? We arrived before dawn, just in time to hit Xingshan Fort by surprise! It's at least four hours before dawn, enough for us to get to Xingshan Fort! ”

Zhang Zhun said solemnly.

"Everyone, listen, the military situation is urgent, immediately set off to Xingshan Fort!"

"Again, we're going to go overnight! Overnight March! ”

Huang Degong had no choice but to shout loudly.

"What?"

"Overnight rush"

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

The soldiers below suddenly stopped, and some people bluntly objected.

Zhang Zhun stood on the high platform and swept over with cold eyes, "I found that at least thirty percent of the soldiers were opposing." Looking at the military ranks of these people, "they are not high, at most they are the captains, team leaders and the like." However, their opposition "is louder than that of Huang Degong, the chief military officer." Dozens of people shouted together, and the momentum was still very huge.

It is said that there are many ruffians in Liaodong, and ordinary officers can't hold it down at all, and that's true. Even Huang Degong, a dignified chief military officer, announced that he would march overnight, and so many people openly shouted against it, and one can imagine what kind of consequences would have been if other deputy commanders, generals, guerrillas, garrisons, and the like gave orders.

This situation is a bit similar to the envoys of the late Tang Dynasty. The envoys of Weibo at the end of the Tang Dynasty have always been arrogant soldiers, and the envoys sent by the imperial court cannot stand here at all. As long as it is not in the interests of those arrogant soldiers, they will immediately rise up in rebellion. The group of people in front of them was even more powerful than them.

Isn't it just a night march? How did it cause such a reaction? In the army, "Is it difficult to march at night?" Thinking of the midnight gathering at the end of the three days in the future, and then marching thirty kilometers in a hurry, Zhang Zhun felt that the group of people in front of him should indeed have a good. Human potential is forced out.

At the same time, Zhang Zhun made up his mind to break up all the Liaodong Army and then rebuild it. It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders. It is unbelievable that the Ming army in Liaodong dared to confront their superiors like this. It is conceivable that if the Liaodong Army is not completely broken and reorganized, as long as the original ruffians still exist, "the Liaodong Army will not expect to make a big improvement." The last thing Zhang Zhun needs is those ruffians. He must get rid of all these ruffians.

"What's wrong with traveling at night? Military urgency: "Is it your turn to bargain?" Ridiculous! If the Tartars are stationed at Xingshan Fort, you want to defeat each other? What's the solution? The only way is to attack at night! Destroy the enemies of Xingshan Fort before they can react! Traveling during the day? Swaggering on the road? Dream! If you rush during the day, you will definitely be stared at by the Tartar cavalry, and you won't be able to move at all! ”

Zhang Zhun stared at a few of the most shouting ruffians with shining eyes, and said coldly. At this time, he had already moved his killing intent. If these ruffians continued to incite other soldiers to rise up against the order, Zhang Zhun would not mind killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, but all the Ming officers and soldiers present knew their harsh methods.

He didn't believe that these ruffians had the courage to fight against him. If Huang Taiji was still strong, they might have a way out, and that was to take refuge in the Tartars. However, now, Huang Taiji has been crippled, and the Tartars themselves are mud bodhisattvas crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect themselves.

Those soldiers felt that Zhang Zhun was paying attention to them, and they couldn't help but shrink slightly, and the words in their mouths immediately shrank back. The shadow of the famous tree, under Zhang Zhun's obscenity, before they figured out Zhang Zhun's ability, they still had self-knowledge. It's okay to make a fuss, but if it's too much trouble, it's a big problem. At this time, there is no future for even taking refuge in Huang Taiji, "I order you, set off immediately!" ”

"Whoever disobeys an order will be court-martialed!"

Zhang Zhun did not hesitate to stop drinking.

With Zhang Zhun's order, the soldiers of the sniper detachment, as well as the soldiers of the Dingzi Battalion led by Huang Liang, who assisted Zhang Zhun in controlling the situation, all appeared around the school grounds. Their faces were all indifferent, and the muzzles of the black holes were aimed at the Ming army on the school ground. Obviously, at this time, they are playing the role of a law enforcement team.

Feeling the pressure brought by the Tiger Army, a few soldiers quietly shut up, and the other Ming soldiers slowly closed their mouths. Obviously, they have already felt that this young man on the stage is very difficult to mess with. Military law is ruthless, and if he really enforces military law, he can drag them out at any time and behead them.

The guy nicknamed Long Feihu, didn't he just want to give Zhang Zhun a dismissal? As a result, Xia Ma Wei did not succeed, but buried his life in vain. Judging from the current situation, even if he is beheaded alive, I am afraid that he will be unjustly killed, and he will not even have a chance to take revenge. Even Huang Taiji is not Zhang Zhun's opponent, how can you take revenge?

"Turn around!"

"Let's go!"

Zhang Zhun shouted sternly.

"Let's go!"

Huang Degong breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly led the team to Xingshan Fort.

He secretly sighed in his heart, although this Zhang Zhun is young, "he looks like a doll on the outside, and he is indeed very majestic." The hundreds of tiger troops he brought were indeed very murderous. Under Zhang Zhun's high pressure, this group of ruffians "actually had to give in temporarily." Well, he couldn't suppress these soldiers and ruffians, but Zhang Zhun was able to suppress them, and Huang Degong's heart was a little envious and a little lost.

Under Zhang Zhun's supervision, the Ming army of Songshan Fort hurriedly marched to Xingshan Fort by moonlight. The soldiers of the Dingzi battalion led by Huang Liang were divided into five squads, and in the middle of each squad, there were more than 1,000 Ming troops, which not only led them to march, but also monitored their march. Zhang Zhun and the snipers rode beside the team, "condescendingly supervising the actions of the Ming army." Feeling the pressure brought by Zhang Zhun, all the Ming troops had to move forward desperately.

Wang Shide said in a low voice: "My lord, these people have potential, but they lack sufficient training and strict discipline. The officers of Liaodong were too accommodating to them. ”

Zhang Zhun nodded and said in a deep voice: "Yes! The upper sorghum is not right and the lower sorghum is crooked, and many of the chief military officers themselves are soft, so how can they expect their subordinates to be brave? This Huang Degong, it's okay to kill the enemy by himself, but in terms of leading troops, "it's a little worse." ”

After walking more than ten miles, I arrived at an intersection. At this intersection, to the south, is Xingshan Fort, and to the north, "Dafu Fort and Daxing Fort." Zhang Zhun suddenly asked, "Is Cao Wenzhao's troops coming?" ”

Huang Degong shook his head and said, "No." ”

Zhang Zhun frowned, and said in a deep voice: "You continue to lead the troops forward, and I will go to Cao Wenzhao!" ”

Huang Degong hurriedly agreed.

Zhang Zhun turned his horse's head and galloped towards the station of Cao Wenzhao's headquarters.

Cao Wenzhao's troops were stationed at Dafu Fort. Cao Bianjiao's troops were stationed in Daxingbao. These two castles, both to the west of Jinzhou, were important strongholds for the Jinzhou War. The scale of these two castles was not as large as that of Songshan Fort, and the number of Ming troops stationed there was also a little smaller. In Liaodong, it seems that such a distribution of troops is too common.

When Zhang Zhun rode his horse to Dafu Fort, Cao Wenzhao's camp did not move at all. You don't need to ask to know that Cao Wenzhao must have set off after dawn. The sentry at the gate learned of Zhang Zhun's intention and hurriedly reported to Cao Wenzhao. As a result, Cao Wenzhao, who was sleeping in a daze, hurriedly poured cold water on his face, and then hurriedly came out to greet Zhang Zhun.

"Cao Wenzhao, order your troops to set off overnight!"

Zhang Zhun said unceremoniously.

"Huh?"

Cao Wenzhao was stunned.

"Huang Degong has already marched and set off!"

Zhang Zhun said sternly.

"Nighttime? Hurried march? ”

Cao Wenzhao's face was full of astonishment.

"Yes!"

Zhang Zhun's answer was very short and serious.

"That'...... Good! ”

Cao Wenzhao was obviously a little reluctant to march at night, who knew that a rapid march at night was a very hard thing, and it was easy to arouse the disgust of the soldiers. If it's not good, it's easy to cause camp riots and the like. But Zhang Zhun was under a lot of pressure, and he had to change his mind.

At this time, it is obviously unwise to go against Zhang Zhun. In fact, from now on, it is unwise to go against Zhang Zhun. Even the most ferocious Tartar is not Zhang Zhun's opponent, and the world in the future is very likely to be Zhang Zhun's world. Against a person who may be in charge of the world, Cao Wenzhao has not been an idiot to that point.

"Knock knock!"

"Knock knock!"

"Knock knock!"

Fierce drums rang out.

Cao Wenzhao's subordinates came out of the barracks in twos and threes, dressing and looking for their own equipment. Zhang Zhun only glanced at it, and then he wanted to turn his head a little, not wanting to look again. Why, it was really Cao Wenzhao's troops, and when they were urgently assembled, they were indeed too bad. Is this the army? It's a rabble!

Zhang Zhun dared to guarantee that if the Tartars attacked at this time, as long as a few hundred people, they would be able to defeat all the thousands of Cao Wenzhao's people. It's not that the Tartars are powerful, it's really that Cao Wenzhao's troops are too poor. Some soldiers are bare-assed, some have no weapons at all, and some are bare-bottomed and unarmed. If you go to the battlefield like this, even if someone else stands and cuts you, you can't cut it!

If there was such a chaotic situation in the Tiger Army, the officer who led the team would have been kicked away by Zhang Zhunyi. After all, the troops in the interior are even worse than Huang Degong's troops. really responded to Wang Shide's words, the troops of the imperial court are not the worst, only worse.

"I'm Zhang Zhun!"

"I command you" to march to Xingshan Fort overnight! ”

Under Zhang Zhun's supervision, "Cao Wenzhao's troops finally left Dafu Fort in a messy manner after a full hour. There is no doubt that "those soldiers have grievances in their hearts." Not sleeping at night, but also marching in a hurry, is too torturous.

It's a pity that even if they complain, they don't dare to show it. Because, Huang Degong's subordinates "were all trained by Zhang Zhun." They asked themselves that their qualifications were not as old as Huang Degong's troops, and they did not have Huang Degong's great contributions, so they naturally did not dare to touch Zhang Zhun's brow.

"What's going on?"

"What's going on with your big fort?"

"In the middle of the night, where are you going in a hurry?"

When passing by Daxingbao, the patrol was not closed at night, and they all asked curiously.

"We're going to attack Matsuyama!"

"We're going to march overnight!"

Cao Wenzhao's troops responded with complaints.

"Huh?"

"A night march!"

The troops of Daxingbao were all full of surprise, and even a few generals and the like looked at the ranks of the marching troops overnight in surprise. It's not that they have never tried to march overnight, but over the years, the number of attempts has indeed been very small. Everyone is accustomed to nesting in their castles, lazily waiting for the arrival of the Tartars, and has long forgotten the concepts of forced marches, rapid marches, night marches, etc.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhang Zhun came, he immediately asked them to march at night, "or march in a hurry." This Zhang Zhun is really tormenting enough. He not only tossed the Tartar, but also tossed his own people" What a pervert. Fortunately, Cao Bianjiao was not included in the team attacking Xingshan Fort, "Otherwise, these people from Daxing Fort will also march in a hurry overnight, which is really fatal."

Cao Bianjiao was also alarmed, and hurriedly came out of the camp, seeing his uncle Cao Wenzhao's gloomy face, Cao Bianjiao felt that he was really lucky. Fortunately, the boss did not assign himself to Zhang Zhun to command. Otherwise, the team that marched in the middle of the night would definitely be indispensable to him.

"Uncle, my nephew can't help you this time."

Cao Bianjiao said insincerely.

"Yes."

Cao Wenzhao said dejectedly.

"Go all the way!"

"Waiting for your good news!"

Cao Bianjiao said seriously.

"Get out!"

Cao Wenzhao couldn't help but be a little annoyed.

Cao Bianjiao hurriedly got out of the way, secretly calling for luck.

The other Daxingbao soldiers were standing on both sides of the road, whispering quietly, well, in fact, it couldn't be regarded as whispering, it was simply a public emotion. Among them, many people are sighing that the soldiers of Dafu Fort are indeed too unlucky, and they were actually assigned to Zhang Zhun's men. Whoever commands it, then don't let Zhang Zhun command it! Da da da"

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves was heard.

Everyone present subconsciously turned their heads and looked towards the sound of horses' hooves, and found that it was a herald from the base camp. In the middle of the night, the herald appeared here, I don't know what the matter is? What Cao Wenzhao hopes for most is to cancel Zhang Zhun's command and let his troops go back to the barracks to sleep.

"Cao Bianjiao listens to orders! Master Jiliao has an order, Cao Bianjiao's department, immediately march to Xingshan Fort! From the time of receiving the order, it belongs to the command of Zhang Zhun, the Metropolitan Governor of the Metropolitan Mansion of the Tiger Army, and it must not be violated! ”

The herald came to Cao Bianjiao and shouted loudly.

"Huh?"

"What?"

"Do we have a share too?"

Before the herald's words fell, the soldiers of Daxingbao suddenly exploded.

Zhang Zhun also felt a little surprised. This herald came really in time, as if he was specifically cheering himself up. These soldiers of Daxingbao are indeed a little too bad. It's just that he is willing to fall, and he actually laughs at others for being motivated. Such an atmosphere is indeed too bad for the army. If such an atmosphere is not reversed, the combat effectiveness of the army will not be improved in the slightest.

It turned out that after Gao Qiqian discussed with Wu Aheng, he felt that the number of troops attacking Xingshan Fort was still a little less. If the battle of Xingshan Fort drags on for a long time, it will be not good for them. The two of them thought about it for a while and decided to send Cao Bianjiao out as well. No, the herald came.

"I ......"

Cao Bianjiao wanted to cry without tears.

He carefully checked that the order sent by the herald was indeed unmistakable. This is an order jointly signed by Gao Qiqian and Wu Aheng, if he does not obey the order, it will be disobeying the military order. Idiots know that the "consequences of disobedience to military orders" are serious. Especially when there is Zhang Zhun meddling.

The Ming army in Daxingbao wanted to cry without tears. Just now, I was laughing at others, but in the blink of an eye, I joined the suffering people. The Ming army of Dafubao "laughed out loud. You deserve it, you were gloating about us just now, and now, you have a share. Look at your little examples, our ability to march overnight is much better than yours.

Zhang Zhun looked at Cao Bianjiao and said solemnly: "General Cao Bing" gathered the troops and set off! ”

Cao Bianjiao had no choice but to go back, put on armor, and then troops. After the drums sounded, the troops of Daxingbao hurriedly assembled. Another hour later, the troops of Daxingbao "marched towards Xingshan Fort one after another." On the march in the middle of the night, their mood was very low. On the contrary, Cao Wenzhao's subordinates are a lot more active, "Many people rushed to run in front of Cao Bianjiao's subordinates."

The terrain around Xingshan Fort is, in general, flat, with occasional hills and undulations. The road to Xingshan Fort is such an undulating progress. On such a rapid march on such a road, the Tiger Ben Army is fine, "The Ming Army will not be able to." After only thirty miles, some Ming troops began to be unable to run.

The worst performance was the subordinates led by Huang Degong, they were all garrison troops, and there were few opportunities to train rapid marches in peacetime. A considerable part of Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao's subordinates were those who used to chase and kill the Shaanxi Liukou and ran around, but they had accumulated some skills in rapid marching, and they could still hold on for the time being.

In fact, the body of these Ming soldiers was simple armor, then a musket, a spear, a shield, or a set of bows and arrows, and then a waist knife for self-defense, and no other additional equipment. However, it must be admitted that such weather is still very bad. Especially the Ming army wearing armor, not to mention sweating profusely, the speed of the march has also slowed down greatly.

The soldiers of the Tiger Army can march long distances, and the objective condition is that there is no armor, and if there is armor, they will not be able to speed up. As long as it is armor and iron, no matter how thin it is, it is more than twenty or thirty catties. It is indeed a little difficult to rush with twenty or thirty pounds of armor on his body. It's not a big problem to walk a few miles, but if you go a few tens or even hundreds of miles, it's a big problem.

"Hurry up!"

"Hurry up!"

"Hurry up, everybody!"

Several of the chief officers kept shouting.

The soldiers of the Dingzi Battalion led by Huang Liang have always been at the forefront of the team and set an example for all the Ming troops. Actually, they're already slowing down. If they had hurried at full speed, all the Ming troops would have been left behind by them a long time ago. Because Huang Liang and Huang Degong are both surnamed Huang, they were one family five hundred years ago, and the relationship between the two sides is inevitably more cordial, and when they march, they communicate with each other.

Huang Degong asked curiously: "Huang Liang, why don't your troops even have armor?"

Huang Liang said: "There is no need. ”

Huang Degong said: "Why? ”

Huang Liang said: "Our tactical moves are not suitable for wearing armor, we must maintain the most flexible movements. In addition, the armor is too heavy, which affects the marching speed. ”

Huang Degong said: "But the armor can effectively block the damage of stray arrows!" ”

Huang Liang smiled and said, "Don't be afraid!" The Tartars can't beat us at all! ”

Huang Degong frowned, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "Your Lord Governor is really stingy, and he is not even willing to equip armor. ”

Huang Liang shook his head and said, "Mr. Huang, you are wrong to say this. If we really need it, the Governor will definitely equip us, but we really don't need it. We have carefully calculated, equipped with armor, it is indeed inconvenient for us to move. You see, when marching, your troops, carrying twenty or thirty pounds on their backs, are enough to walk. On the contrary, it is much easier for us. ”

Huang Degong felt that what Huang Liang said was crooked, and wanted to refute it, but he didn't know where to start. Looking back at his troops, he found that they were all as tired as dead dogs, and they were shaking. On the contrary, on the side of the Tiger Ben Army, it is a dragon and a tiger, and after a journey of fifty or sixty miles, there is no sign of exhaustion.

"! Skills are not as good as others! ”

Huang Degong had to sigh quietly in his heart.

Although the competition between the two sides is not the ability to fight, but in terms of the speed and endurance of the march, the Tiger Ben Army did completely defeat the Liaodong Army. If the two armies compete in a race, Huang Degong estimates that the Tiger Ben Army can pull at least half of the distance of the Liaodong Army. What is the Gap? That's the gap! No wonder Huang Taiji will be defeated by the hands of the Tiger Ben Army, the Tiger Ben Army is indeed expected!
