Chapter 118: Bloody Battle at Weishan Lake (3)

The cavalry of the Yuan army was also surrounded by the chaotic Red Turban Army at this moment, and there were weapons everywhere, so they couldn't move at all, so they had to fight with the Red Turban Army with the swords in their hands. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Gao Antong, who was fighting outside the Red Turban Army, couldn't stop dripping blood when he saw the cavalry of the Yuan Army who kept falling and dismounting in the crowd.

The remaining more than 200 cavalry were slowly besieged to death by thousands of Red Turban Army, until the last cavalry fell to the ground, Gao Antong stopped the more than 500 infantry who came in a hurry, and shouted: "Withdraw!" ”

After that, he slapped his horse and fled with the remaining dozen or so cavalry.

These hundreds of soldiers were tired and out of breath and finally ran over, but they received the order to withdraw, and their depression can be imagined.

It's just that they were greeted by the red-eyed Red Turban Army, where did the Yuan Army still care about complaining, and they all turned their heads and spread their legs and fled.

The two Red Turban armies converged together, and they all desperately chased after the Yuan army, until they chased and killed near Xincai, which was over, and they were all tired and paralyzed on the ground.

......

Peng Da and Li Er are a pair of bitter neighbors in the village outside the city of Xuzhou, the two have been poor since childhood, and they both lost their parents in the early years, so they depended on each other, and later burned yellow paper to worship heaven and earth, the elder brother is called the biggest, and the younger brother is two. Since then, they have been called brothers.

At that time, Li Er went to participate in the White Lotus Sect, but Peng Da thought that the White Lotus Sect was too poor and did not go to mix with Li Er. happened to be through Mao Gui, and got acquainted with Zhao Junyong, who was arrogant, and after a few drinks, he was dizzy and entered Mingjiao.

Since Peng Da entered the Ming Sect, he has learned to be a gangster, although Li Er dislikes it, but because of the relationship between brothers, he didn't say anything, but he persuaded him many times in private.

Every time Peng Da bypassed vaguely, Li Er had no choice but to give up.

"Xiao Er, General Zhao is here!"

After receiving the order of the White Lotus Sect to fully assist the Ming Sect in the uprising in Xuzhou, Li Er and Peng Da had been waiting for someone to come, but they didn't expect it to be the old acquaintance Zhao Junyong.

Li Er hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed his head, and said loudly: "I've seen General Zhao!" ”

"Haha, they're all old acquaintances, you're welcome!" Zhao Junyong was assigned by Guo Zixing this time to come to Xuzhou to make an incident, and when he thought that he was about to become a hegemon, he was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut.

To say that Zhao Jun has made a great name in Huainan in the past two years, many people in the rivers and lakes know it, relying on his martial arts and Guo Zixing's support.

Zhao Jun brought a Mao Gui with this time, and after greeting each other, they entered Xuzhou City together, went to a restaurant, and began to discuss the matter.

Among the four people, Zhao Junyong was naturally the main one, and Zhao Junyong also said unyieldingly: "I don't know how many people can there be in this incident?" ”

Peng Da looked at Li Er embarrassedly, and Li Er had to say with an embarrassed face: "General Zhao, if you want to say that there are many people who respond to the crowd, but at present, there are about ten people who directly cause the incident, including us!" ”

If the incident is successful, then surely those bitter haha will come to run, on the contrary, if you can't get up, people will not follow, so naturally there is no sin.

Zhao Junyong, who had experienced several failures before, was used to it, nodded, and comforted: "Don't be discouraged, more than a dozen people are enough!" ”

"Huh?"

Just a dozen people can succeed, which is tantamount to a fantasy in the eyes of Peng Da and Li Er, and the two shouted in surprise at the same time.

Li Xingze's several suspicious tactics in Nanyang Mansion, the bluffing Yuan soldiers were stunned for a moment, although Zhao Junyong did not personally participate, but he also heard others say in detail that he planned to borrow these methods to see if he could scare away the defenders of Xuzhou.

Seeing Zhao Junyong's confident appearance, although Peng Da and Li Er didn't understand where Zhao Junyong's confidence came from, since Zhao Junyong took the lead in this incident, the two of them acted according to the plan.

Outside Xuzhou, due to the Yuan court's repair of the river, many people gathered. Zhao Junyong waited for a dozen or so people to quietly dress up as burden-bearers and blend in.

There is a small fence in the dark part of the river, and you can directly enter Xuzhou City by drilling through it. After the city gate was closed at night, Zhao Junyong and Mao Gui pulled a few people in, and Peng Da and Li Er waited for the signal outside the city.

The people all slept on the river beach not far away, and in order to increase the effect, Peng Da buried a lot of fire-stirring things, planning to take advantage of the chaos when the time came.

In the middle of the night, when there was no moonlight, the whole sky seemed to be covered by a curtain.

Zhao Junyong and others lit torches in the city, quickly set fire to the roofs of many houses, and shouted in unison: "The Red Turban Army is here!" ”

Peng Da and Li Er heard the panic in the city outside the city, and hurriedly lit the fire in the people, and suddenly, there was fire everywhere outside the city, and they also ran continuously and shouted: "The Red Turban Army is coming!" ”

The river man who was sleeping was awakened and ran around in a panic, and the Yuan soldiers at the head of the city couldn't see the actual situation outside the city clearly in the dark night, and when they saw the chaotic footsteps and firelight everywhere, they were so frightened that they ran down the city wall.

After doing everything arranged outside the city, Peng Da and Li Er led people to sneak into the city from the dark part of the river, lighting torches and shouting around to kill.

There was a panic in the city and outside the city, and the black lights were blind and the fire was not clear at all, and as a result, the more and more trouble grew, and the Yuan soldiers ran in all directions like headless flies.

At this time, the gate of Xuzhou had been opened by the fleeing Yuan soldiers, and the people outside the city did not know why they poured in.

......

After this battle, the Red Turban Army won a complete victory, but the damage was not small, almost 1,000 casualties, but finally all saw blood, with some blood, the next battle must be much better.

Xin Cai didn't seem to have much of a problem for the time being, Li Xingze and Miss Ma greeted Du Zundao, and then led people to return to Funan.

Who knows, on the way back, Miss Ma received a summons from someone in Mingjiao, saying that the situation in Xuzhou had changed and that she and Li Xingze needed to go over immediately.

The church arranged for Zhao Junyong to go back to Xuzhou to start an incident, and Miss Ma still knew about this matter, and told Li Xingze about the matter, at this moment, it depends on what Li Junshi means.

To say that between Li Xingze and Zhao Junyong, there is really no deep hatred, but it was caused by a misunderstanding when they met for the first time, and Li Xingze is not a person who holds a grudge, so he nodded and agreed immediately.

At this moment, the Yingzhou Red Turban Army was also eager to digest the newly laid territory, and it was not good to be in a hurry, so Miss Ma immediately sent a message to several leaders of the Yingzhou Red Turban Army, and set off with Li Xingze and others.

Xuzhou was taken by the Red Turban Army, which was not a big deal, but there were no less than 100,000 people repairing the river near Xuzhou.

Zhao Junyong and others took Xuzhou, so they recruited troops on a large scale, and in less than a few days, tens of thousands of people were gathered.

At this time, the Yuan court noticed the huge Xuzhou Red Turban Army, and in anger, he asked Don Timur to gather a lot of troops from Jiangbei Province and asked him to quickly go to Xuzhou to exterminate this Red Turban Army.

When Li Xingze heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, saying that Zhao Junyong was a pig's brain, and he himself was not convinced, the gun shot the first bird, it doesn't matter if you play the flag or something, the key is to recruit so many soldiers at once, and it is difficult not to attract people's attention.

Look at Xu Shouhui in Huangzhou, he is smarter, how long has it been, but there are only 10,000 people who have died to death, he doesn't provoke the Yuan army, and people are too lazy to take care of him.

According to the report, Betimur led almost 50,000 elite soldiers this time, and advanced from all parts of Guide Province by water and land at the same time, and came directly to Xuzhou.

To say that Timur is also quite depressed, he was played by Li Xingze one after another, and after learning that Yingzhou was taken, although he was angry, he was helpless.

After all, the soldiers and horses in his hands are all the garrisons of the original cities, and it is okay to fight a field battle, if it is to attack the city, it is purely to send his life, and then he learned that Han Shantong is dead, and it has become meaningless to pursue and suppress again, so he simply gave up the pursuit.

Li Xingze's most consideration now is nothing more than to retreat from the enemy, after all, Don't Timur has rich experience in battle, not an easy person, and his resourcefulness is not bad, this time he is leading 50,000 elite soldiers, you know, the Xuzhou Red Turban Army is only 50,000.

Thinking of this, Li Xingze was puzzled: "I don't know how the equipment of the Xuzhou Red Turban Army is?" ”

Miss Ma said embarrassedly: "Almost half of them have no weapons!" ”

The arsenal of Guide Mansion is not in Xuzhou, to put it bluntly, the team of tens of thousands of people, in addition to picking up some weapons of the original Xuzhou garrison, and then taking kitchen knives or something, anyway, barely enough to make up half of the range of weapons.

It seems that the primary problem restricting the development of the Red Turban Army is the problem of equipment, not to mention the rags, there are no protective measures, and even the weapons can be improvised.

Li Xingze couldn't help but be overshadowed, if this continues, it will be difficult for the Red Turban Army to have a chance to grow, and it is impossible to fill it with human lives every time it fights.

......

Since taking this Xuzhou City, Zhao Junyong should have taken the lead, and everyone also elected him as the marshal.

But Zhao Junyong had a lot more thoughts, considering Guo Zixing's influence, he still secretly pushed Peng Da to sit in this position, and he just became a general.

I don't know why I have Peng Da, I thought it was Zhao Junyong who took care of him, and I didn't know what to do when I was moved.

Peng Da did not have the slightest experience in governance and handling methods, and when he learned that the Yuan army of Guide Mansion was coming to Xuzhou, he immediately panicked, but fortunately, Zhao Junyong thought that Miss Ma and Li Xingze were together, so he asked Peng Da to send a message for help.

Peng Da, who is relieved, is like an upstart. When he conquered Xuzhou before, he got a lot of young ladies from official families and daughters from wealthy families, and Zhao Jun drank every day for fun, but he didn't care about anything.

"Big brother, you can't be like this!"

The military situation was like fire, and the two of them were drinking in the state capital in broad daylight, Li Er really couldn't see it, and after coming in, he angrily held accountable.

Peng Da was drunk and dissatisfied: "What's the matter? The brothers fought hard to fight this Xuzhou, but they are not happy, why is this? ”

Peng Da felt that he couldn't stand Li Er more and more, and felt that Li Er was poor and sour, and he looked down on him a little.

Li Er, who was upright, didn't think about it so much at all, and immediately reproached: "Big brother, look at your current appearance, how can you lead this Red Turban Army?" ”
