Chapter 64: A lot of money was seized
"Haha, get rich!"
"We've got rich!!"
Wang Chaoyong laughed without any image, and as soon as the battle was over, Wang Chaoyong led people to rush to the carriages in the distance. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
There were dozens of these carriages, and each carriage was full of grain, and in addition, there was a lot of gold and silver, all of which were estimated to be more than 100,000 taels if converted into silver.
Obviously, these things were all stolen by these Tartars, and now, these things have naturally become Zhang Feng's trophies.
Seeing Wang Chaoyong yelling there, Zhang Feng also came over, "Head Wang, what makes you so happy." ”
Wang Chaoyong opened the big box on one of the carriages and said loudly: "Boss, look. ”
When the box was opened, it was full of white silver, and when the box was opened, it was actually a gold ingot, which looked very gratifying.
Seeing this, Zhang Feng was happy in his heart, and waved his hand: "Take them all, take them back to Tianjin Wei, load them on our cargo ship, and transport them back to Songjiang Mansion." ”
An hour later.
Wang Chaoyong hurriedly came over and reported, "Chief soldier, the battlefield has been cleaned up, and all the Tartar corpses have been buried. ”
Zhang Feng nodded and said: "The battle just now was fought very beautifully, and the only fly in the ointment was that dozens of Tatar cavalry escaped. ”
These fleeing Tartar cavalry, who basically did not participate in the charge, stayed behind to guard these dozens of carriages, saw that there was not much of a situation, fled in despair, and soon ran away without a trace.
Wang Chaoyong said with a solemn expression: "Chief soldier, these Tartar cavalry must have gone back to report the news, the Tartars have suffered such a big loss, they will definitely seek revenge from us." ”
Zhang Feng nodded, Zhang Feng naturally realized the seriousness of the problem, the other party was cavalry, and he acted quickly, in addition, what was even more serious was that in Langfang, there was a large army of Manchu iron cavalry, if tens of thousands of cavalry came at one time, he was really dangerous.
Zhang Feng was not arrogant, he had less than 2,000 people, and he was still sure of victory in the face of the opponent's tens of thousands of cavalry, and there were too many uncertain factors on the battlefield.
Wang Chaoyong also seemed to realize this, and suggested: "General soldier, we will lose all the booty, and march lightly and quickly back to Tianjin first, where there are strong city walls, even in the face of a large number of cavalry on the other side, we have the strength to fight." ”
Zhang Feng shook his head, "The loot can't be lost, especially the hundreds of war horses that were captured with great difficulty, we have to bring them all back." ”
After thinking about it, Zhang Feng ordered: "The cavalry scouts will increase the scope of reconnaissance and early warning, report as soon as there is a situation, inform everyone, take everything with you, and we will go back to Tianjinwei." ”
This time, among the seizures, in addition to those gold and silver, what Zhang Feng valued the most was the two or three hundred war horses, although the other party had nearly a thousand war horses, but most of them were killed by muskets, and only a few hundred war horses remained, with these two or three hundred war horses, Zhang Feng would be able to form his own cavalry troops in the future.
The order was given, everyone took their things and began to return to Tianjin Wei.
…………
Langfang.
In a large tent of marching, the camp tent is luxuriously arranged, and you can know the commander's tent at a glance, which is the big tent of Yue Tuo, the commander of the Manchu right-wing army.
Du Duzheng, deputy commander of the Right Wing Army, reported with a smug face: "Lord Belle, our Right Wing Army has won seven battles and seven victories, and the total number of Ming troops annihilated by all walks of life is more than 30,000. ”
Everything went well, completely like entering a no-man's land, not only Du Du was happy, Yue Tuo was also happy, in the big tent, in addition to Yue Tuo and Du Du, there were other officers at all levels of the Tartars, such as several Jia Lae Zhen, and a Mongolian Eight Banners Bannerman.
Hearing this, everyone was faced with joy and looked at each other, and their eyes were also full of joy.
Yue Tuo said: "How many things have the minions robbed, have you counted them?" ”
Du Du hurriedly said: "Lord Belle, just counted, a total of more than 1.56 million taels of silver, more than 100,000 taels of gold, more than 2 million catties of grain, and more than 9,000 heads of various livestock......
Yue Tuo nodded happily, obviously, very satisfied with the result.
After Du Du finished reporting, he reminded: "Lord Belle, the Guanning Iron Cavalry Brigade is coming towards us, and it is estimated that they will be near Langfang tomorrow." ”
Yue Tuo said: "This is our old opponent, and it is also our defeated general, tomorrow we will meet this Guanning Iron Cavalry." ”
The Guanning Iron Cavalry is one of the three elite troops of the Ming Dynasty, and its predecessor can be traced back to Yuan Chonghuan.
At this time, a Manchu general broke in in a panic, Yue Tuo glanced at it dissatisfied, the Manchu general quickly knelt down, and said miserably: "Lord Beile, our cavalry of about 1,000 was almost wiped out near Huangzhuang near Tianjin Wei, and only a few dozen people fled back. ”
Yue Tuo was stunned for a moment, his eyes were full of coldness, and Du Du asked loudly, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?" ”
The Manchu general said miserably: "According to those who have fled back, one of our Niu Lu and one of the Amur banner lords encountered a large Ming army near Huangzhuang, not far from Tianjin Wei, and almost all of our 1,000 cavalry were wiped out. ”
Yue Tuo and Du Du glanced at each other, and the two of them thought of the Guanning Iron Cavalry at the same time, and it must be the main force of the Guanning Iron Cavalry, otherwise, it would be impossible to completely annihilate their own 1,000 cavalry.
Du Du asked in a deep voice: "Say, did you encounter the main force of Guanning Iron Cavalry?" ”
The Manchu general said miserably: "It's not the Guanning Iron Cavalry, the other side is all infantry, and all firearms, it should be a firearms battalion of the Ming army." ”
Ming Army Firearms Battalion?
When did the Ming army's firearms battalion become so powerful that it could eat a thousand cavalry in one go, if it weren't for strict military discipline, everyone would have reason to suspect that this was lying about the military situation.
"Is it really a firearms battalion?"
Seeing Du Du ask again, the Manchu general said: "It's true, it must be the firearms battalion of the Ming army, but this firearms battalion seems to be different from the ordinary Ming army, these people are about two thousand, they are not wearing armor, they are all wearing green uniforms, which is very recognizable." ”
There were only two thousand people, and they were not yet armoured.
The Mongolian banner lord Amur said: "Lord Belle, let me lead the troops to destroy this group of Ming troops and avenge our warriors." ”
In the end, it was Yue Tuo, who seemed to smell a trace of unusualness, and reminded: "Amur, don't underestimate the enemy, find out the situation first, if I guess correctly, this group of Ming troops should retreat to Tianjin Wei, don't worry, they can't run." ”
After the death of a thousand cavalry, Yue Tuo must have thought of revenge in his heart, but the big battle was imminent, and Yue Tuo knew that the top priority was to defeat the Guanning Iron Cavalry, and after defeating the Guanning Iron Cavalry, it would not be too late to clean up that group of Ming troops.
So, Yue Tuo said: "Amur, just send a Jiala to monitor this group of Ming troops from a distance, our current priority is to fight with the Guanning Iron Cavalry." ”
Yue Tuo said this, and the Mongolian banner lord Amur did not dare to refute, and immediately said: "Yes! ”
………
Zhang Feng was worried that the thousands of Manchu iron cavalry did not appear, Zhang Feng was a little puzzled, he wiped out a thousand of their cavalry, and the other party did not send a large number of cavalry to pursue him, which was abnormal.
Zhang Feng returned to Tianjin Wei with his team, and all the things seized were loaded onto steam-powered transport ships docked in the harbor except for some grain.
There were six steam-powered ships, two of which returned to Shanghai, and the other four were docked two or three hundred meters away from the pier.
After a big victory, everyone's morale was very high, and at noon, all the cooking classes were busy and made a sumptuous meal to reward everyone.
In the afternoon, the intelligence team of "Spirit Fox" Guan Peng came with news that tens of thousands of Guanning Iron Cavalry were coming towards Langfang, and at this time, Zhang Feng suddenly realized that the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not want to seek revenge on himself, but wanted to deal with Guanning Iron Cavalry first.
