Chapter 392: The Scourge of Dajin
After the fifth expansion of the Yongan Army, the Zhenwei Battalion will naturally follow suit. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Xiao Yi was also very helpless about the Zhenwei Battalion, because the Yongan Army generally needed to go out to fight every time it was war, and its own towns naturally could not be without defensive forces, so the Zhenwei Battalion was born.
But the original Zhenwei Battalion is actually really the nature of the people's bravery, and even Xiao Yi himself only regarded it as a reserve, and he didn't think about what the Zhenwei Battalion could do in the future.
But Xiao Yi was pleasantly surprised to find that he seemed to have unintentionally set up a new system.
The Zhenwei battalion led by Li Erniu not only strictly obeyed the dispatch when he left Ulzhou, but also could guard one side when the Yongan Army left Ulzhou, and could provide high-quality soldiers for the Yongan Army at any time.
In other words, Ruo Xiao also popularized this kind of Zhenwei battalion to the entire Datong Town, and recruited the Zhenwei battalion to replace the original official army locally.
If you let the loyal generals lead the local Zhenwei battalion, then the entire Datong Town will be in Xiao Yi's hands, and the entire Datong Town will be the military camp of the Yongan Army.
And this kind of thing can only be done secretly, Xiao Yi knows Chongzhen's careful thinking, and judging from the news that Jingshi came back some time ago, Chongzhen seems to have suspicion of himself.
If you want to let him know about the Yong'an Army's Zhenwei Battalion, it will inevitably cause extraneous branches, causing greater suspicion and misunderstanding.
The current Xiao Yi didn't think about what he would do with Chongzhen in the future, he just knew that if he wanted Datong Town to change, it must be completely shattered and rebuilt.
Although all the sergeants of the Zhenwei Battalion are treated as reserves, they are only civilian warriors to the outside world, and none of them have been included in the regular army.
On the bright side, Xiao Yi's Zhengbing wine only has more than 10,000 people, so naturally it will not pose a threat to Chongzhen.
There are more than 10,000 people in the Zhencheng Zhenwei Battalion just recruited last time, and Xiao Yi didn't plan to let them fight any tough battles, it is enough to let the Yongan Army fight abroad with peace of mind.
Therefore, except for a training every other day, the Zhenwei battalion is still only equipped with the standard armor and swords and guns of the Ming army.
After more than a few months of training by the old army, the Zhenwei battalion has also changed a lot, although it is far from the Yongan army, but it should be regarded as an elite among the current Ming officers and soldiers.
In addition, the sergeants of the Zhenwei battalion are all selected from the local people to serve as family members, and there are no ruffians mixed in them, and they generally do not flee in wartime, for Xiao Yi, it is enough to be able to do this.
After the discussion was dismissed that day, Xiao also left Dong Yinghua behind, and the two talked for a long time, and no one knew what the two of them said.
……
In late June of the fifth year of Chongzhen, the defense of the Yongan Army was secretly handed over to the sergeants of the Zhenwei battalion, and the guards outside the city were gradually replaced by the soldiers of the Zhenwei battalion wearing the armor of the Ming Dynasty.
On July 3rd, the weather was very strange, and from the morning it was foggy and obscured, which is best described as a finger that could not be seen.
The Ming army on the settlement city was lazily leaning on the city wall and laughing, this foggy weather looked past from the city, and the outside was just a fog of white flowers.
Not to mention the Houjin army, even the other Ming troops on the city wall can't be seen.
As he was talking, suddenly a fire lit up in the distance, and the shouts of killing suddenly sounded from all directions, and the garrison commander of the city was suddenly startled, and hurriedly flew to the garrison mansion.
After Bao Bing's fight, the Jin army couldn't sleep peacefully day and night outside the city, and he simply wore iron armor and didn't take it off all day, and the persuasion of several wives and concubines was useless.
Although Bao Bing received Xiao Yi's document saying that he had taken the Yongan Army out of the city to help, it has been three days now, and he has not even seen a single figure.
It is also strange to say that on the day Bao Bing received Xiao Yi's documents, the Jurchens and Mongols who had been outside the city all day long had disappeared, and there was a dead silence in the camp, making it difficult to figure out what they were doing.
Although he knew that the goal of the two armies was not himself, this feeling still made Bao Bing very depressed.
He was like a sheep sandwiched between two angry tigers, trembling and having no choice but to wait for one of the two beasts to break the situation.
When he heard that the Jin army had moved, Bao Bing was actually heavily relieved, and when he rushed to the city wall and saw the situation outside, he also frowned.
In this foggy weather, everyone can only see the fires lit up in all directions and the faint shouts of killing.
Although there was no figure to be seen, it also caused great psychological pressure on the Ming army in the city, and even Bao Bing sent people out of the city to ask for the assistance of the Yongan army.
If this kind of thing happened to an ordinary Ming Dynasty general, I was afraid that I would have been so frightened that I would have immediately agreed, but Bao Bing was not in a hurry to send someone to find Xiao Yi.
Bao Bing is not stupid, at this time, the thieves made such a formation but did not attack the city, there must be a conspiracy.
He also knew that no one in the Yong'an Army had appeared so far, and it must have its strategy.
Before the last moment, Bao Bing would not let people disturb Xiao Yi's deployment, Bao Bing sneered, at this time, it depends on who can carry it better.
At that moment, Bao Bing not only did not ask people to look for Xiao Yi for help, but immediately ordered.
asked Qian Zong Qi Sheng to recruit Minzhuang and Minyong to assist the officials and soldiers to defend the city, but Qi Sheng didn't go down long before he came back, saying that the people in the city were extremely scared when they heard that Jiannu was going to attack the city, and they were fleeing to the town with their families and small bags.
Bao Bing sighed, and let the news that Qi Sheng's Yong'an Army had driven out of the town spread to the town.
Originally, Bao Bing wanted to let this news calm the people's hearts, but the effect was unexpectedly good, and when the people heard that the Yong'an Army was already on the road and was about to arrive, they immediately became excited.
They put down the big bags and small bags in their hands, took out the ordnance from the inner library, and spontaneously climbed the city wall to assist the officials and soldiers to defend the city.
And Bao Bing was also amazed when he saw this scene, and he didn't think that when he mentioned the names of Yong'an Jun and Xiao Yi, the effect was actually better than the hard work of Qi Sheng and others for nearly a month.
In the camp of the Houjin army outside the city, the roar of Azig was heard.
"Dolgon, didn't you say that these Han pigs would immediately send someone to inform Xiao Yi when they heard the sound of the war drums of my iron horse? Now, the Yong'an Army still doesn't know where it is, but our army has exposed its location! ”
Dolgon heard Azig's angry roar, his face did not change, he glanced at Azig, and said lightly: "General, dissipate your anger, there is a time when you seek revenge on Na Xiao." ”
Azig's thoughts were punctured, and he suddenly became even more angry, but because of Dorgon's prestige in front of Huang Taiji, and because Dolgon saved enough face for him in his words, he didn't say anything more at the moment.
At this time, Dolgon looked at the Ming army who had just entered the tent, "What you said is true?" Xiao Yi has really left the town? ”
When this Ming army heard this, he clasped his head again and again, and said in a trembling voice: "Even if the slave has great courage, he will not dare to deceive Lord Belle!" When the city heard that Lord Bellor's iron hooves were coming, it was already chaotic, but when he heard the news that the Yong'an Army was coming, it was..."
Speaking of this, the Ming army felt that Azig's eyes were becoming more and more wrong when he looked at him, and even retreated in some horror.
Seeing this, Dolgon snorted coldly and said, "Anyway, without Benbele's order in this big tent, no one can move a single hair of your hair!" ”
When the Ming army heard this, he thanked him again and again, and then said carefully: "When the city heard the news that the Yong'an army was coming, all the people who fled ran back, and it was also a miracle that they spontaneously assisted in defending the city. ”
After speaking, Fan Wencheng, who looked like a literati on the side, looked at Dolgon with a face full of disbelief, and looked at Dolgon after a long silence.
"Lord Belle, this person must be an extraordinary general, if you don't get rid of him as soon as possible, he will become a big trouble for my henchmen in the future!"
Hearing Fan Wencheng's words, Dolgon nodded lightly and said coldly: "Ben Baylor is here to completely put an end to this trouble!" ”
As he spoke, he looked at Azig and continued: "It is also to avenge General Heshuo Yangwu." ”
Hearing this, Azig felt a lot more relieved, put away his resentment against Dolgon for the time being, and nodded again and again.
