Chapter 371: Disputes and Breaking the Rogue

"Be loyal to the country, block this day, you are all soldiers under the rule of the imperial court, the food of the king, every bit is the grace of heaven, can you dare me to die together?!"

Fu Chuanzhu is not a person who is strong in military law and strategy, and he is also not very brilliant in governing the army and leading troops, not to mention his backstage, this person is nearly forty, and he only has the rank of general, which is enough to prove that he is not very good. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

However, there are thousands of people, and it is inevitable that there will be people who speak up and die generously, and Xingyang has this person to guard and resist the thieves, fortunately, fortunately.

"I am willing to die for the general."

The soldiers and civilians in the city also know that the last moment is coming, the thieves are powerful, everyone knows that once they break the city, they will slaughter the people of the city, as the main army, their families are in the city, so they can maintain half of the casualties, and still continue to fight.

It's a pity that looking back at the city now, there are all wounded and tired people, even if they barely pick up arms, they can't fight with thieves, they lack the necessary training and pure weapons and armor, that's what it looks like, they are not a strong army at all, just a group of rabble that have been temporarily gathered,

It's not even as good as the thieves who were driven to death under the city, let alone fight with the thieves, they just rely on the advantage of defending the city, and temporarily engage in a tug-of-war with the thieves, but if they want to fight desperately and break the siege of the thieves, it is blind.

The three words of the strange barracks are enough to show that this army, in the Ming army, also exists as an auxiliary, as for the military household soldiers, is it still an army?

"Fu Dequan, can An fight again?!"

"My lord, the last general still has 200 dead soldiers on hand, but it can be a battle, if the thief enters the city, the last general will fight to kill the enemy."

Everyone present knew that the final moment was coming, but no one would choose to beg for mercy or anything else, because the city had been fought for four days, and both sides had suffered heavy casualties. The anger of the thieves must have been monstrous, and none of them should want to live well if the city is broken.

"That's very good, Lord Chen, you should prepare early. When the city is broken, light the gunsmoke, and never give a grain of grain to the thief army. ”

Chen Yinglong nodded bitterly. But he was really unwilling, as the commander of Xingyang County, he had to order the military rations to be ignited to support the front line, but now he can't even save his own life, where can he care about anything else.

"My lord~ A dark arrow was shot from outside the city, and there was a letter on it."

Suddenly, a general rushed over, holding the paperwork in his hand, and the death of the person was concerned, Fu Chuanzhu smiled miserably. He took it lightly and smiled even more, "The thief ordered me not to wait for the army to be burned, otherwise after the city is broken, the whole city will be slaughtered." ”

"When is it, these thieves still dare to bully us like this, general, please give the order, the last general is willing to burn the army rations first, and then open the city gate to fight the thieves to the death."

Fu Dequan, who was angry, didn't care anymore. Anyway, for them, it's nothing more than a dead end, and there will never be any other result, since the thief wants it. Then they must not be allowed to get it.

"Wait, General Fu, Wanshi military rations, in exchange for tens of thousands of people in Xingyang, this is a good strategy."

Chen Yinglong made a different voice at this time, although he was an official in the past. colluded with the squires to oppress the locality, but in essence, after reading the books of the sages, the official position is not big, so the darkness of officialdom has not been too deep, at least there is still hope for rescue, and now I hear that tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city have a way to live,

How could he not be tempted, he was destined to die anyway, but if he could keep his name and live the lives of tens of thousands of people in the city, it would be worth it more than anything.

"Chen Zhixian, how can you believe the words of the thief."

If it weren't for Lang Zhong in the city to heal him, I'm afraid that he would have died of pain now, but this person has reached a desperate situation, but he has burst out with unimaginable power for ordinary people, at least Wang Zhiyuan has now changed his previous cowardice and fear, and has become a hardliner who fights with all his strength.

"The thieves said they wanted food, so they didn't kill the soldiers and civilians in the city, and the thieves said they wanted us to get out of the way, so should we give up the city to the thieves?"

He was injured several times, even if the thief retreated at this time, I am afraid that he would not live for a few days, but he still gritted his teeth and let people carry him up, so when he spoke, he didn't have a good face for anyone.

"How can this be said, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city are powerless, they can't carry the tripod above, they can't garrison the city below, and they can make them suffer from thieves?!"

The pedantic energy on Chen Yinglong's body burst out all of a sudden, the sage book, just look at it, if you really go to learn, it can be regarded as a dizzy, at least I haven't seen any jinshi who relies on a sage book to govern the world and become an official, if this is the case, there will be no bones left after being eaten early in the morning.

"But who dares to guarantee that if the thieves get the military rations, they will not harm the soldiers and civilians in the city? Lord Chen will be a ghost under the knife at that time, won't he turn into a powerful ghost to protect the people of the city? ”

Wang Zhiyuan is also anxious, his thoughts are already very clear, that is, he can't survive anyway, besides, after killing so many thieves, the hatred is greater than the sky, and the city is broken, his clansmen will never be able to keep it, since this is the case, why leave life-saving food for the thieves,

So, after he forced this question, he didn't even ask Fu Chuanzhu for instructions, and immediately ordered a hundred households behind him, "You bring people up for me, set fire to the granaries of the whole city, and don't leave a trace for the thieves." ”

"Whoa!"

These hundred households also knew that they couldn't live, so they immediately prepared to take the order to go, Chen Yinglong saw it, and immediately became anxious, pointing at this person, "Get out of here with this official." ”

He is the magistrate of this county, and the Ming Dynasty has always used literature to control the military, not to mention the hundred households of the seven grades, that is, the six-grade officials like Wang Zhiyuan, and even the generals like Fu Chuanzhu, he can also be scolded, besides, the contempt of the Jinshi who has never studied is not natural?

"This."

Wang Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, looking at the angry Chen Yinglong, but he didn't know what to say, but under the faint pain of the wound, he couldn't care so much, and he directly felt a heart, "I am Liupin, responsible for the Xingyang garrison, and I am a guard appointed by the imperial court. ”

"I think who dares, this official is ordered by the Son of Heaven, the herdsman Xingyang, and the official has the right to govern the affairs of the military and the people, do you want to rebel?"

Chen Yinglong said this loudly, then stared at Fu Chuanzhu and said, "The general is here, don't abandon my tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians, otherwise he will be infamous for generations." ”

"Military food is the important weapon of the country, the foundation of the army, if the thief takes it, it will inevitably ravage the place even more, tens of thousands of people in Xingyang, tea poison Quartet, why not."

Although Fu Chuanzhu was born as a military attachΓ©, he read poetry freely, but unfortunately his luck was not good, and he had nothing to do with it, so he could only inherit his father's military position, but he knew the priority of the matter, the military rations fell into the hands of the thieves, and sooner or later there would be a big cholera, and if it was not good, the court would have to settle accounts after his death.

But the advantages of civilian officials, so that as a general, he did not dare to make a mistake easily, and was entangled, when he suddenly saw smoke rising from the east, and it seemed that there were elite cavalry attacking the thief formation, so he was shocked and said, "Could it be that reinforcements have arrived?" ”

"Reinforcements really?!"

Several people who were arguing were suddenly ecstatic, and they also ran up to watch, only to see that the army from Zhengzhou in the east was breaking through the rear camp of the thief army, and the person who came was Wang Jixun, the deputy general of the Qingshui battalion, who led 800 cavalry as the vanguard of the whole army.

Sure enough, the victory was a complete victory, Wang Ziyong personally led the troops to supervise the battle, and only left eight thousand old and weak women and children in the back camp to guard the camp and military rations, but the army has never been on the slightest guard, and when the young man who guarded the village saw the menacing Ming cavalry, the distance was less than five hundred steps, and the speed of the cavalry impact was so fast,

In a moment, he stepped on the joint venture, and the main force of the thieves' rear battalion team was directly broken and fled, and there were cries and cries for help everywhere, and no one dared to turn back to resist, after all, the defenseless and limited young and strong, they were not prepared at all, and it was not even considered to be in a hurry, it was simply a sudden attack.

"Kill the thief ~ kill the thief!"

Wang Jixun was ecstatic in his heart, he broke 8,000 people with 800 people, and the casualties under his command were only four or five people who fell off the horse.

"Turn quickly and meet the incoming enemy~!"

At this time, the army of thieves also found the enemy coming from behind, this time, the military formation was completely panicked, you must know that in the era of cold weapons, whether it is a messy rogue, or a regular border army, especially pay attention to the formation, the general style of play of the thief, is to meet the Ming army, in front of the old and weak to send death and consumption,

Constantly consume the physical strength of the Ming army, and if there are escapes, they will be killed directly, so as to constantly drive the old and weak to die, and when the officers and soldiers are tired, their main force Qingzhuang and the old battalion soldiers and horses will take the opportunity to go out, defeat the tired officers and soldiers in one fell swoop, and then win, but in this case, most of the time they have to prepare in advance,

If you encounter a few rogues and fight a large number of officers and soldiers, then you have never won, and the same is true for hasty encounters, after all, the rogues are not as good as the well-trained officers and soldiers, plus they are suddenly attacked, the strength of the officers and soldiers is not even less than that of the rogues, then the matter is doomed from the beginning,

A rout is no longer inevitable.

"Generalissimo, let's go, the official cavalry is coming."

As for why not to join up with the other main force in the north, it is because the beacon smoke still rises in the north, and the shouting of killing is even worse than in the east, which makes the thief army in the state of frightened birds dare not run north, but can only go south......
