Chapter 296: Late
As the Tianxiong Army, Wang Yuncheng and the Ningxiang Army, who entered Beijing to offer prisoners, naturally also received orders to enter Beijing and retreat from the enemy.
The order of the imperial court envoy said that the army of the Jingying Kou was now stationed in the areas of Gu'an, Yongqing, Dong'an, and Wuqing under the leadership of the great eunuch Gao Qiqian's father-in-law, looking for an opportunity to fight a decisive battle with Jiannu
。 He ordered Wang Yuncheng's troops of the Tianxiong Army and Sun Yuan's troops of the Ningxiang Army to return to the Beijing battalion to control and join the combat sequence.
But in fact, now the first war after the founding of the Qing Dynasty has come to an end.
In this battle, the Manchu Qing not only captured a large number of people, robbed a large amount of property, but also played out the morale of the army, the strategic goal has been achieved, and it is time to return to the north.
According to the real history, there will be 10 to 15 days at most, and the Jiannu army will retreat.
In his previous life, Sun Yuan did not experience the tragedy of the collapse of the country and the death of the family, and he did not know what the situation of the Ming Dynasty, a neighbor in the northeast, was. But the bloody records in the history books tell him that this is a more vicious enemy than the peasant army.
He also wanted to wrestle with the Manchurian Eight Banners on the battlefield in Beijing, to see if the Jianzhou Baijia in real history was as brave as said in history, and to see how the Ningxiang Army he trained compared to them?
But how can things be as people wish, since Wang Yuncheng took the command of the army that entered Beijing to sacrifice prisoners, Sun Yuan could only obey orders for the time being. Along the way, Wang Yuncheng walked slowly and annoyingly. After receiving the military order from the imperial court, it was even slower.
Fortunately, it finally entered the territory of Shuntianfu, and now the Beijing area is full of Jiannu troops, the Sichuan army and the Ningxiang army are jointly camped, and the goal is very big, and it is difficult not to attract the attention of Jiannu. Even if Wang Yuncheng is cowardly fighting mushrooms here, Jiannu will not let go of the opportunity to eat this formed army, and no one will let go of the fat in front.
Therefore, Sun Yuan is not worried that he has no chance to fight. Even if the Qing soldiers are about to return north, they have to teach this group of robbers a lesson.
It's just that the enemy situation is unknown now, and Sun Yuan doesn't know how many enemies there are in front of him. Moreover, he is still a little worried about the sentence that the legendary Jin people are not satisfied with 10,000 people and are invincible in the world.
In the past two months, he has already seen that the quality of the soldiers of Wang Yuncheng's Sichuan army is good, but it can't be fought, and it is not too bad in the Ming army. really has no hope for the Qing Eight Banners, which is known as the first in the world. And his Ningxiang army is only 2,000 people, which is obviously not enough.
Then, if you once face most of the Shangqing Army, then only the Jingying can cooperate with the Ningxiang Army!
As far as Sun Yuan knew, the 12th Regiment of the Beijing Battalion had about 60,000 horses, which was an army of unprecedented size
。 With them, this battle may have to be fought.
What makes Sun Yuan puzzled is that although Gao Qiqian is his nominal boss and commander at the moment, no one can say where this guy has gone now. That's 60,000 horses, so could it just disappear out of thin air?
Shuntianfu is not a big place, where did Jingying hide?
I don't understand, I don't understand!
This high potential historical reputation is quite bad, cowardly, and it is said that Lu Xiangsheng's future battlefield of war death has a lot to do with this dead eunuch. It can be said that in the history books, this person is a traitor.
But Sun Yuan looked through the history books, and he didn't see any direct relationship between Lu Xiangsheng's death and Eunuch Gao. The book just said that Lu Xiangsheng and Gao Qiqian were not in harmony.
History books were written by literati, and it is not surprising that civil officials and internal officials are at odds, and it is not surprising that scholars who control public opinion smear eunuchs.
Sun Yuan didn't take this seriously, in fact, there were many factors in Lu Xiangsheng's death. In fact, the most important thing is that the Ming army is too bad, not because of the opponents of the Qing army.
Even if he travels to this era, he may be able to change Lu Xiangsheng's fate.
Of course, that's an afterthought. At present, Sun Yuan is looking forward to measuring the weight of the Jianzhou Eight Banners on the battlefield to see which of the Ningxiang Army he has trained with modern means is stronger or weaker than the most barbaric and powerful Jianzhou people in this era.
But where did this high dive go?
60,000 people is not a small number, and ten miles of encampment and joint operation is considered small. It's hard to hide without being discovered, which is strange.
Could it be that this dead eunuch will spell?
Thinking of this, Sun Yuan smiled bitterly: Since you don't appear, then I won't look for you. Nowadays, there are slaves everywhere, and they can't be killed at any time, so they have to be on guard.
At the sound of an order, more than 100 squire cavalry divided into three squads of about 30 people, roared out in the east, west, and north directions, and disappeared into the sunset.
The setting sun, with black silhouettes cut out behind them.
These scout cavalry belonged to the outliers of the Ningxiang Army, all of whom were selected from the captives and homeless people, and many of them were veteran knights in the peasant army and the mountain and Shaanxi border armies
。 Because the cavalry belongs to a special type of troops, and they are extremely proud, and they are scouts, Sun Yuan does not have any strict requirements for them in terms of military discipline, and he does not engage in projects such as walking in the right step and queue training. And their equipment was excellent, each of them had a new cotton armor, a well-made composite riding bow, a goose feather knife, and a short axe, and the spearmen of the army looked very shabby compared to them.
In the past two months, he entered Beijing to offer prisoners, because Wang Yuncheng's speed was too slow, Sun Yuanzi refused to waste his precious time on touring the mountains and rivers, so he simply walked while training soldiers.
Up to now, the Ningxiang Army has basically been two old and three new, and in the past two months, a large number of new recruits who have flooded the army have gradually matured, and they are just about to go to the battlefield to see blood.
The scout cavalry did not relax during this period, and took on the task of guarding and patrolling the two armies on weekdays. After entering the Gyeonggi area, the cordon circle was expanded to 30 miles.
At this time, someone shouted: "General, general, no! ”
Looking back, a guard ran over with a panicked look on his face.
Sun Yuan: "What's the matter, talk slowly." ”
In front of the soldiers, Sun Yuan also seemed very gentle. As for training soldiers to do wicked things, they have their own middle and lower rank officers.
Seeing Sun Yuan's reassuring gaze, the guard took a breath and calmed down: "General, Miss Zhu...... Miss Zhu also ran out, saying that she wanted to lead the team herself. This place is full of slaves, if you encounter enemies, what should you do? ”
"Ah, Ting'er!" Zhu Xuanshui's mouth opened wide in surprise.
Sun Yuan also slapped his thigh worriedly: "This Zhu Ting, what should people say!" Why didn't you stop her? ”
The guard looked aggrieved: "Stopped, but can't be stopped." The scouts all listen to Miss Zhu, she wants to go out, who cares? ”
Since meeting with Zhu Xuanshui's father and daughter in Huai'an, the Zhu family's father and daughter have been bored and have taken up the position of training scout cavalry. It can be said that these 100 light horses were all trained by them.
Sun Yuan shook his head: "That's it, that's it, anyway, no Jiannu was found around here." ”
