Chapter 797 The entire Liaodong is about to burn! [Ask for a monthly pass!] 】
(o797)
[Today's first update delivered]
Before the arrival of the Tartars, Dujiatun was a market town with a population of 3,000 people, rich in natural treasures and outstanding people, but after the arrival of the Tartars, it became a white land. The local population either ran away early, was killed by the Tartars, or was driven to the vicinity of Shenyang to be slaves. From a distance, there was only fluffy thatch, and there were dilapidated houses in the thatch, and inside the houses were the rebels who had taken refuge in the Tartars.
Laoyaqiao is a very small village, originally with a population of only a few hundred. After the arrival of the Tartars, the place also became a white field. Except for patches of fluffy thatch, not even a single house can be seen. Because this is the main road connecting Dujiatun to Xiping Fort, the strategic location is important, so the Tartars are specially stationed here to guard the rebels.
According to Luo Guanyang, the rebels stationed in Dujiatun were about 500 people, which was the periphery of Xiping Fort. And Laoyaqiao is the periphery of Dujiatun, where there are about 100 rebels. There are more than 100 members, but in reality there are only 70 members. The rebels' ability to eat empty salaries is sometimes unstoppable even by the tartars.
"Just rush in?"
Standing outside the Old Duck Bridge, Zhang Zhun said coldly.
"No"
Luo Guanyang hurriedly refused.
"Why?"
Zhang Zhun asked meaningfully.
"It's not fun to startle snakes."
Luo Guanyang replied cautiously.
Zhang Zhun nodded and did not speak.
His main task was to understand the surrounding terrain and the enemy's situation, and the battle was completely incidental. If there were a large number of Tartars stationed around, Zhang Zhun would not take the initiative to provoke a battle. If you get entangled by a large number of Tartar cavalry, it is still a bit troublesome. However, it doesn't matter if there are rebels all around. Rebels, is that also an army?
"I'm going to lure them out, you are here to ambush, and when they arrive, you will suddenly appear, and it is better to kill them than to let them run away"
Luo Guanyang said quickly.
"Okay."
Zhang Zhun nodded indifferently.
This trick seems to be the perfect fishing skill used by the Tiger Army, this Luo Guanyang is really related to the Tiger Army, and everyone's usual means are actually this trick. I wonder if the Tartars and rebels in Liaodong have learned a lesson in this regard?
"Zhou Da"
"I'm One-Eyed Luo again"
Luo Guanyang rode forward and shouted loudly.
Dugu Hunt and the others all frowned quietly, this Luo Guanyang, what are you doing? Does the movement need to be so big? If you roar like this, will people ignore you?
"**Mother's one-eyed Luo, don't run if you have a kind this time"
Inside the Old Duck Bridge, there was a sound like a broken gong immediately, presumably the rebel officer guarding the Old Duck Bridge. Listening to his scolding tone, it seems that his personal grudge with Luo Guanyang is very deep, presumably Luo Guanyang must have come to greet Lao Yaqiao before.
While speaking, more than a dozen war horses ran out of the Old Duck Bridge and rushed towards Luo Guanyang and them. The sound of the horse's hooves was urgent, like rolling thunder, and the horse's hooves also splashed a lot of dust.
Because of the Mongols, the number of war horses in the Tartars was still considerable, and some of the rebels were originally infantry, but after taking refuge in the Tartars, they became cavalry. There are actually more than a dozen cavalry on this Old Duck Bridge.
"Grass, I don't run, I'm an idiot"
Luo Guanyang muttered to himself in a low voice, turned the horse's head without thinking, and ran towards Zhang Zhun. Looking at his skillful turning movements, you can know that this is definitely not the first time he has provoked the rebels. No wonder the rebels were so annoyed. If you are harassed by a person who has been attacked twice for three days, but you can't catch the other person, you will also be furious.
"One-eyed Luo has a kind of don't run"
The rebel pursuers behind shouted frantically.
"Bang"
"Bang"
"Bang"
The rebels raised their muskets one after another and shot at Luo Guanyang, and the gunfire continued. It's a pity that the distance between them and Luo Guanyang is completely out of the range of the musket. Once the projectile leaves the muzzle, it doesn't know where it flies at all. This burst of gunfire is not so much to deter the enemy as to embolden yourself.
"These rebels, still haven't made progress."
In the distance, Wang Shide held a clairvoyant mirror, carefully looked at everything in front of him, and said to himself. The biggest problem of the Ming army was lax discipline and insufficient training, and they often fired indiscriminately before the enemy entered the firing range, wasting not to mention ammunition in vain, and giving the enemy a chance to surprise by surprise. Judging from the current situation, it seems that these Ming troops have not changed much after they took refuge in the Tartars. Such an army is really a bunch of scum.
In the midst of the gunfire of the rebels, Luo Guanyang ran faster. The rebel cavalry behind was in hot pursuit, and in a blink of an eye, it was far away from the Old Duck Bridge, and the originally flat terrain also showed slight undulations. When Luo Guanyang climbed over a slope, the rebel pursuers behind him climbed over the slope without thinking.
"Ahh
"Not good"
Suddenly, someone in the rebels screamed.
It turned out that they were horrified, and at the bottom of the slope, dozens of enemies were waiting for their arrival. Why is it so obvious at a glance that it is an enemy? Because the muzzle of the opponent's black hole is aimed at them with a cold weapon.
"Heart"
"There is an ambush"
The rebel officer, Zhou Da, screamed in horror.
The other rebel cavalry, sensing that something was wrong, hurriedly tightened the reins and tried to run away in both directions. It's a pity that it's too late. The Tiger Army snipers have already targeted them, can they still run away? Don't say that they are just ordinary rebels, even the forward battalion of the Tartars, in such a situation, only the whole army will be annihilated
"Bang"
"Bang"
"Bang"
Sure enough, there was a burst of gunfire, and all the rebel cavalry fell off their horses. Because when the rebels climbed over the slope, they were quite fast, and as a result, after they fell, their bodies were still rolling on the ground. The force of their landing and diving is also very large, which is basically equivalent to hitting the ground hard, and even if they are not killed on the spot, they are also thrown to death. Most of the war horses are fine, and they have become the trophies of the Tiger Army.
"Catch Him"
"Don't Move"
"Stand Up"
Soon, the rebel officer named Zhou Da was caught in front of Zhang Zhun. He was not hit, but was hit by the war horse under the crotch, and as a result, he was thrown to the ground hard, and his life was not in serious trouble. This live mouth was specially left by Zhang Zhun to be a sniper. Otherwise, he would have been doomed long ago.
"You're the Tiger Army?" Zhou Da looked at the people around him and asked in shock.
"Oh? You know us? Zhang Zhun asked with a smile.
"I, I, I...... Guess ...... Guess ......" Zhou Dayue's frightened face, his face turned yellow, and his eyes contained horror.
"Poof"
Suddenly, everyone heard a strange noise, and then they smelled a foul smell. Someone looked down and saw that this week was old, and he was actually scared to the point of incontinence. Something yellow, seeping out of his crotch.
“
Zhang Zhun had to urge the war horse to move to the upper hand.
The other Tiger Ben soldiers also left the downwind position and moved to the upwind position, otherwise, they would be stinked to death.
Luo Guanyang just turned around, and when he saw this scene in front of him, he was both contemptuous and funny. This Zhou Da, he was actually scared like this by the Tiger Army, and he didn't understand why these rebels were so afraid of the Tiger Army. This week, it doesn't seem to be such a bold person, right? Why did the Tiger Army scare him like this?
Wang Shide pinched his nose, frowned and said: "**, surrender to the Tartars, you have the courage to be like this, and the Tartars will still take you in." ”
Zhou Da's face was flushed, he felt that he had been greatly humiliated, and he wanted to find a hole to drill into, but he didn't have the courage to do it at all. Shocked by the Tiger Army, his face was full of horror, and he stammered: "It's really you, it's really you ......"
Luo Guanyang couldn't help but say, "It's them, what's wrong?" ”
Zhou Da seemed to be stupid, and he didn't hear Luo Guanyang speak at all. In fact, he was frightened. How could he have imagined that he would actually fall into the hands of the Tiger Army? Yesterday he learned the truth about Huang Taiji's defeat in Beizhili, and today the Tiger Ben Army came to the door, he was completely demonized, and he didn't know how to react at all.
Luo Guanyang looked at Zhang Zhun a little strangely, and then looked at the Tiger Ben Army soldiers around him, feeling that there was something strange in this. But what is strange is there, but I can't accurately describe it. The Tiger Ben Army came out and actually scared this Zhou Da like this, which is really amazing.
Zhang Zhun smiled slightly, but did not explain.
No matter how Huang Taiji blocked the news, the truth about his defeat in Beizhili will still be known by more and more people. The loss of people and materials he lost is irreparable, and those who care about it can deduce the truth as long as they think about it.
These rebels, in particular, are most worried about their future fate. As for Huang Taiji's war in Beizhili, whether it was a victory or a defeat, they must be most concerned. In other words, they will definitely find a way to find out the truth. Looking at this Zhou Da's appearance, he knew that he had already learned the truth about Huang Taiji's defeat, otherwise, he would not have been frightened by the Tiger Ben Army and became incontinent.
For the verdict, Huang Taiji was defeated, it must have been a bolt from the blue, and it scared all of them stupid at once. When they took refuge in Huang Taiji, they felt that Huang Taiji was strong in ability and the strength of the Dajin Kingdom, and that taking refuge in the Huang Taiji and Dajin Kingdom could bring them glory and wealth, and bring them the safety of life and property. But now, Huang Taiji has been defeated, and all their dreams and hopes have been lost.
The contrast between the front and back is too great, and there must be some rebels who can't accept this cruel reality, and they may go crazy. However, there are more rebels, but they have to hurry up to find another way out, this is a major matter related to the life of the family, continue to follow Huang Taiji, continue to follow the Dajin Kingdom, there must be only one way to die. If you want to survive, you can only find other paths.
"My lord, do you want to scratch a few more tongues?"
Dugu Hunt quietly came up to ask for instructions.
"Well, grab some more."
Zhang Zhun nodded and said.
The news of these rebels is also well-informed, and they learned the truth about Huang Taiji's defeat so quickly. This is certainly a good thing for the Tiger Army. When the news of the defeat spread, the morale of the Dajin Kingdom will definitely fall to the bottom. Zhang Zhun wanted to see what kind of changes would happen to the mentality of the rebels after learning that Huang Taiji was defeated in Beizhili.
In Liaodong, the number of rebels is too much. Around Quang Ninh City alone, there were tens of thousands of rebels. They were scattered among the large fortresses dotted around Quang Ninh City and acted as accomplices of the Tartars. If the Tiger Ben army goes to attack the fortifications one by one, it will take time, not to mention, and it will be easy to give the Tartars a chance to escape.
There must be a suitable way to make most of the rebels give up their resolute resistance and give up the motivation to act as accomplices to the Tartars. Zhang Zhun didn't want these rebels to fight back and help the Tiger Ben Army deal with the Tartars, but, at the very least, when the Tiger Ben Army and the Tartars were fighting, these rebels would not come out to make trouble. How can this be done? The premise is to understand the mentality of these rebels.
Luo Guanyang said: "I'll go and get them out." ”
Zhang Zhun nodded and said coldly: "You change places and go to Dujiatun"
Luo Guanyang agreed, and immediately urged the horse out.
Sure enough, Dujiatun's rebels were caught up in a battle by Luo Guanyang, and they were furious, and they didn't think of anything else at all, so they immediately dispatched more than a dozen cavalry to chase after them. Luo Guanyang naturally turned around and left. Those rebel cavalry didn't expect that there was a trap in front of them, and continued to chase desperately. The result is naturally conceivable, when the rebel cavalry fell into the ambush circle of the Tiger Ben army, they were all stunned. Around them, dozens of black hole muzzles were staring at them.
"We are the Tiger Army"
"Throw away your weapon, dismount, get on your knees, and hold your head in your hands"
Liu Mang and the others approached from all sides, shouting fiercely, and aiming at the target with their guns.
"What?"
"You're the Tiger Army?"
The rebels were taken aback, their faces full of horror.
After a moment of hesitation, they all obediently threw away the weapons in their hands, turned over and dismounted, knelt on the ground, and then hugged their heads with their heads, obediently waiting for the Tiger Ben Army to come and deal with it. After a while, they were all caught in front of Zhang Zhun by the soldiers of the Tiger Army.
When Luo Guanyang saw all this, he couldn't help but be even more confused. I said, do you need to react so much when you hear the name of the Tiger Army? When did the Tiger Ben Army have such a great deterrent power and actually let these rebels obediently dismount and surrender?
Zhang Zhun stared at the rebel leader with cold eyes, and said coldly: "What's your name?" What position? ”
The rebel officer replied tremblingly, "Wise." Garrison. ”
Zhang Zhun nodded and said coldly: "Very good name." We need to know the information about the surrounding area, including the Xipingbao area, and it depends on whether you are really smart. ”
Gao Ming hurriedly shouted: "Don't worry, you must say everything, say everything, and ask for your forgiveness for a life, the surrender of the tartars, are all forced to do so, they are all orders from above."
Zhang Zhun said coldly: "Want to live? Simple, say everything you know. ”
Gao Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued to kowtow and beg for mercy like pounding garlic, for fear that Zhang Zhun would regret it. There is a ten-year-old mother, and there is a newborn child, and the familiar set of begging for mercy has also been moved out by him.
Zhang Zhun waved his hand, and Wang Shide took the person down for interrogation.
Luo Guanyang said a little strangely: "It's strange, these rebels seem to be particularly afraid of you." ”
Zhang Zhun smiled and said: "Because our methods are very tough, we have never been soft on dealing with these traitors. ”
Luo Guanyang said a little dazedly: "It doesn't seem to be." In the past, these rebels were also very arrogant, and they would resist when they encountered a situation like that just now, but today I don't know what medicine they took wrong, so they obediently threw away their weapons, dismounted and surrendered. ”
Zhang Zhun smiled slightly in his heart, and said secretly, what medicine could they take wrong? It's not because the Tartars were defeated and their lives were difficult to protect, so they had to be respectful to the Tiger Ben Army. Aren't they doing this to save their lives? What those rebels want to eat most at this time must be regret medicine. It's a pity, in this world, there is no regret about taking medicine, and you have to be responsible for what you do.
That Gao Ming was really cooperative, he really knew everything, said everything, and poured out everything he knew as if he was pouring beans from a bamboo tube. In such a good state, Wang Shide couldn't bear to kill him, so he continued to detain him, and then came to report to Zhang Zhun.
According to Gao Ming's confession, there were a total of 66 rebels in Laoyaqiao, and a total of 513 rebels in Dujiatun. Among them, the number of cavalry accounts for about 20% or 30%. In both places, there are no tartars. Only patrols of the Tartars, every three days, come over to check on them.
Zhang Zhun asked with concern: "What is the situation in Xiping Fort?" ”
Wang Shide said cautiously: "I have asked repeatedly, Xiping Fort, Zhenwu Fort, and Zhenning Fort are all garrisoned by rebels, and each fort has only one Niulu's Tartar, about two hundred people. The rest of the fortresses were all rebels, and there was not a single Tartar. ”
Zhang Zhun said with a little surprise: "That's right? ”
The above three fortresses are all fortresses that defend Guangning City, and the main force of the Liaodong Army was in these three fortresses to resist the attack of the Tartars. The father of two months, Luo Yiyi, was killed in Xiping Fort. Now, the Tartars are actually in these three fortresses, and only the rebels are stationed, and the number of the Tartars is only two hundred, which is really ...... Troop level emptiness
It seems that after the failure of Huang Taiji in Beizhili, the rear of Dajin Kingdom is indeed very tight. The current Huang Taiji is trying to temporarily stabilize the hearts of the people in the eastern Liaodong region by spreading fake news. Maybe ordinary people will still believe the fake news of Huang Taiji for the time being. However, as time goes by, there will be more and more flaws exposed by Huang Taiji, and more and more people will know the truth. At that time, the paper can't hold the fire, and the whole of Liaodong will burn.
For Huang Taiji, a large number of Ming rebels is definitely an insecurity factor, a hidden danger that may explode at any time. In the past, there were a large number of Tartars to contain the rebels, forcing those rebels to obediently sell their lives to the Tartars, not daring him to think. However, now, the strength of the Tartars themselves has seriously declined, and they can no longer contain these rebels, as long as the Tiger Ben army provokes a little, God knows what will happen.
There were at least six or seven thousand rebels stationed in Xiping Fort, Zhenwu Fort, Zhenning Fort and the surrounding forts, but the Tartars who were responsible for monitoring them were only six or seven hundred, which was less than one percent of the rebels. Such a disparity might have been effective in the past. However, with the news of Huang Taiji's defeat exposed, such a disparity in proportion will definitely not be able to contain all the rebels.
Wang Shide said cautiously: "It should be right. I've proofread it over and over again. ”
Luo Guanyang suddenly said: "It's not right"
Zhang Zhun asked coldly, "What's wrong?" ”
Luo Guanyang frowned and said: "In the past, in these three places, only the rebels were stationed, and there were no Tartars, why is there an extra Tartar of Niu Lu now?" What can two hundred Tartars do? Could there be some conspiracy in this? ”
Zhang Zhun asked slowly, "Are you sure that there were indeed no Tartars before?" ”
Luo Guanyang said affirmatively: "Absolutely not." I'm familiar with this place. ”
Zhang Zhun nodded thoughtfully.
It seems that the high-level Tartars, at least at the level of Tabai, are already a little uneasy about the rebels below because of the defeat in front. They began to worry that these rebels would have other ideas, and they began to worry that these large number of rebels would fight back and cause harm to the Dajin Kingdom.
The arrangement of a Niulu Tartar in each fortress was not for the purpose of warfare, but for the purpose of monitoring these rebels. This is obvious. How loyal can you expect from a group of people who have betrayed their homeland? If something goes wrong, they will definitely turn against them.
In fact, except for Huang Taiji himself, the other Tatar slave chieftains have never seriously believed in the Han people. Especially in the current unfavorable situation, they are even more uneasy about the rebels. Once these rebels took refuge in the Ming Kingdom, they suffered great losses. Therefore, the monitoring of them is very necessary.
Like Zu Dashou, the number of rebels who are desperate for the Tartars is very small after all. Most of the rebels are mothers with milk. They are the grass on the wall, and they swing in whichever way the wind is strong. They have no courtesy, righteousness, honesty, loyalty, filial piety, and faith. Moreover, even if it is Zu Dashou, he may not be completely trustworthy.
To put it cruelly, who can prove that Zu Dashou was not put back by Zhang Zhun and wanted to put a long line to catch a big fish? Since Huang Taiji can let Zu Dashou go back to Jinzhou, can't Zhang Zhun let Zu Dashou come back to plot Shenyang? This is all a shady thing, who can pat their chest and guarantee that there is no problem at all? Who dares to say that there is no transaction between Zu Dashou and Zhang Zhun at all?
Zhang Zhun drew several circles on the ground with branches, representing different fortresses, and then squatted on the ground, pondering carefully. After learning about the situation in Xipingbao and other places, Zhang Zhun felt that his battle plan might be able to make appropriate changes. His original plan was to leave Jinzhou and push all the way, first take Yizhou, and then attack Quang Ninh City.
Now it seems that there is a better plan, that is, to take the three major fortresses of Xiping Fort, Zhenwu Fort, and Zhenning Fort, and cut off the connection between Guangning City and Shenyang, so that the Tartars of Guangning City will have to retreat. If it is handled well, you can also make dumplings from the Tartars of Guangning City, and knock out all the red flags of the Tartars.
One of the biggest problems in fighting the Tartars is that it is difficult to completely annihilate them. In Northern Zhili, the Tartars were the attackers, constantly attacking the Tiger Army, and as a result, the Tiger Army was given the opportunity to kill and wound them. However, when they arrived in Liaodong, the relationship between the Tiger Ben Army and the Tartars was reversed. The Tiger Army became the attacker, and the Tartars became the defender. If the Tartars feel that the situation is not good, or if their strength is not good, they will definitely take the initiative to retreat.
The area of Liaodong is so large, and the terrain is relatively flat, which is conducive to the mobility of large-scale cavalry. If the Tartars dodge quickly, it will not be easy for the Tiger Army to catch them. If the Tartars have not been in direct contact with the Tiger Army, but have taken the best surprise attack or ambush to deal with the Tiger Army, the Tiger Army will still have a bit of a headache.
Liaodong is the home of the Tartars, and the Tartars fight on their own home turf, and they always have advantages in all aspects, just like the Tiger Ben Army fights at the home of Beizhili, and there are many advantages. The Tatars have ruled Liaodong for nearly twenty years, and they should be very familiar with the situation here. If you simply move to Liaodong with the combat experience of Beizhili, you will suffer a big loss.
In addition, there is another point to consider, which is psychological issues. In the battle in Beizhili, the Tartars are invaders, and their combat effectiveness is based on looting, once they cannot be satisfied, their combat effectiveness cannot be maintained for a long time. But in Liaodong, there is a little bit of change.
In Liaodong, the fighting power of the Tatars may come from defending their homeland and defending their people. A considerable number of Tatars regard Liaodong as their homeland. The Tiger Ben Army's recovery of Liaodong was to destroy their homeland. Obviously, the combat effectiveness of the latter is much stronger than that of the former. This means that the battle between the Tartars and the Tiger Ben Army will be very hard.
But in any case, taking the three fortresses such as Xiping Fort can cause a great psychological shock to the Tartars of Quang Ninh City. At the very least, it was possible to force the Tartars of Quang Ninh to withdraw. As long as the Tartars in Guangning City were withdrawn, the Huben army would be able to take control of western Liaoning, carry out land reform in western Liaoning, establish a base area, and then attract Han Chinese from eastern Liaodong to come over.
The main force of the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army is gradually moving to Liaodong. Some of the soldiers in the Liaodong Army are also slowly transforming into the Tiger Army. As long as the strength of the Tiger Cavalry is strong enough, you can start a chase battle with the Tartar cavalry on someone else's home field.
