Chapter 215: On Military Merit at Night (2) (1st Update)
Yang Su's face changed slightly: "How can this be?" ”
Wang Huaqiang said unhurriedly: "The last general saw that the overall situation of the battle in the forest had been timed, and thought that the enemy's army division might escape, so he sent Liu Dudu to give up the drum to help, and led five hundred cavalry around the woods to pursue the fleeing enemy. ”
Yang Su nodded: "Wang joined the army and dealt with it well, but why did you let Liu Dudu go around the woods to pursue?" Ben Shuai remembers that the order given to you is to assist and respond to the general, and your move seems to be suspected of stealing credit. ”
Wang Huaqiang smiled slightly: "Marshal, although the battle situation in the forest has been decided at that time, the enemy army is not able to break the army, and our army is running everywhere in order to catch prisoners, if these five hundred cavalry do not pursue around the forest, it will not be possible to walk from the forest at all, in fact, it has been almost half an hour before the situation inside has stabilized, and the last general also reminded the general for the first time, asking him to lead people to pursue the enemy general." ”
Yang Su asked Laihu'er, "Is there such a thing?" ”
Lai Hu'er nodded: "What Wang Senjun said is good, the last general was only concerned about capturing prisoners at that time, thinking that the enemy would be among these captives, and it was not until Wang Senjun came to find the last general that he confirmed that the enemy general had fled." Therefore, the general of the rear army, Zhang Zhen, was left to guard the prisoners, and the last general led the soldiers of the front army and the middle army to chase after them. ”
Yang Su sighed "hmm" and continued to ask, "Then why did Zhang Ji come over with the prisoners and the head?" ”
Wang Huaqiang opened his mouth and said: "This order was given by the last general, and it was difficult to guard these more than 10,000 captives in the dense forest, and the combined number of General Zhang and Feng Dudu's men at that time was less than a thousand. In case the enemy prisoners scattered and fled. It's hard to catch it again. Therefore, the last general used the military order given by Marshal Yang. Let General Zhang lead his subordinates to escort the prisoners back to report the merit first, and by the way, ask the marshal to send troops to respond quickly.
Then the last general took Feng Dudu and rode to Songjiang, and the last general knew the military division, thinking that maybe after the general caught someone, the last general could identify it, so he came over. Then the last general saw that General Lai was commanding his subordinates to search for the fleeing enemy troops on the high ground outside the city, and Matsue was already doing as General Lai said. It was occupied by Liu Dudu. So the last general asked Feng Dudu to also lead troops into Songjiang City. ”
Yang Su gently stroked his long beard and said, "Come General, since this is the case, this Songjiang should be occupied by those two governors, right?" ”
Laihu'er shook his head and said: "The last general doesn't think so, the last general is to pursue the leader of the enemy army for a while, and search for the defenders who fled from Songjiang City, so he doesn't care about entering the city, and waits until the search is over." Of course, the last general had to enter the city, and the reason why the rebels in Matsue fled without a fight. It was because they knew that the last general had wiped out the main rebel army in a battle in the dense forest, so the last general thought that this Matsue Castle should be the credit of the last general. ”
Yang Su's face was calm, and he couldn't see any joy, anger and sorrow in his heart: "Come to the general, the last question, what is the matter with the two governors you cane?" What military discipline did they violate? ”
Lai Hu'er said hatefully: "The last general entered this Songjiang City, regarded the county government as a temporary military tent, and ordered the general to discuss matters, for the reason that it was more convenient to command, the last general asked Feng Dudu and Liu Dudu to withdraw from Songjiang and camp outside the city, but these two not only did not obey the order, but spoke disrespectfully and insulted the general in public, so the general ordered the two to be beaten with twenty military sticks on the charge of not being an official to show punishment. ”
Huang Fuji suddenly laughed, pointed at Lai Hu'er and said: "Come to the general, as the general of the imperial court, do this kind of thing to rob the subordinates for merit, are you blushing?" ”
The muscles on the corner of Laihu'er's mouth jumped: "General Huangfu, please pay attention, the last general was the highest commander in the Songjiang area at that time, in order to avoid any chaos in the city defense work, why not let the two of them go out of the city and station?" ”
Huangfu Ji said coldly: "General, you have been in the army for many years, you should know the military regulations of our army, at that time in the Songjiang area, your military rank was indeed the highest, but Feng and Liu are not your direct subordinates, and you have no right to directly command them." Besides, just a small Songjiang City, what needs to be changed, I believe that my subordinates can maintain law and order in the city, but you, run directly into the city and want to take over Songjiang City, what is this called robbery? ”
Lai Hu'er gritted his teeth and said: "General Huangfu, I will respect you as a senior, it is not easy to stay in the lonely city in Suzhou for three months, I have always been polite to you, you have repeatedly spoken out today, do you think that I am easy to bully when I come to Hu'er?" The rebels were obviously scared away by my victory in the dense forest, so what can't I enter this Songjiang City? Hmph, looking at your words today, I finally know where those two governors are so bold, even I dare to scold!"
Huang Fuji's face was swollen red, and he stepped forward to scold, but he heard Yang Su say coldly: "Okay, this commander knows this matter in his heart, today our army has a big victory, don't hurt your own people, the two generals should retreat first." ”
Lai Hu'er retreated to his ranks, Wang Huaqiang also followed back to the back row, and although Huang Fuji stood back, he said indignantly: "Marshal, these two of my subordinates worked hard to capture the city and defend the city, and tried their best to complete the military orders issued by Wang Senjun, but they were beaten like this, you have to give me justice in this matter!"
Yang Su said in a deep voice: "This marshal said, this matter has its own public opinion, General Huangfu, please stand back to your position first." ”
Yang Su suddenly had a smile on his face: "There is a bloody and hard battle of the generals of Lao, the conquest of Songjiang means that our army has completely quelled the rebellion in the land of Sanwu, the two major towns of Jiankang and Suzhou are now safe, and the next thing is to march into Minyue and exterminate the high wisdom of the usurped emperor, Wang Wenjin, Shen Xiaoche, these rebel forces, this commander is in charge of the army, and there has always been clear rewards and punishments. ”
When everyone heard that they were going to start talking about meritorious deeds, they all held their breath, their eyes full of anticipation.
A record of Yang Su's side joined the army and opened a credit book, sat behind a temporary copy to prepare a record, Yang Su said in a deep voice: "Since my army crossed the river, everyone's merits have an account in Ben Shuai's heart, and now everyone listens to Ben Shuai read it out."
Suzhou Assassin History, the great general Huang Fuji, since the Jiangnan Rebellion, alone in the lonely city, contain and attract more than 100,000 rebels in the Sanwu area, and strive to ensure that Suzhou is not broken, in the battle to eliminate the thief leader Gu Ziyuan, the great meritorious, the enemy army captured by the department amounted to 23,000 people, and his subordinates in the pursuit of Gu Ziyuan's remnants of the army had more than 2,300 prisoners, and captured Songjiang City, which should be recorded as the first merit of this campaign. ”
Huangfu Ji was secretly happy in his heart, the capture of Songjiang was regarded as his own credit, Liu Quan and Feng Xiaoci did not suffer in vain, he proudly glanced at the dejected Lai Hu'er, and said loudly: "Marshal Xie Yang!"
Yang Su continued: "The general of Shangkaifu came to Hu'er, led his troops to climb the first place when he captured Jingkou City, beheaded the enemy general Zhu Mowen, beheaded more than 2,100 ranks, Xishan attacked the enemy formation in the first battle, killed the enemy general Shen Xuanyu, and captured more than 8,200 people, killed 3,200 prisoners in the next battle of Suzhou City, killed more than 14,300 people in last night's pursuit battle, and captured more than 5,000 enemy troops outside Songjiang City, which should be recorded as the second merit of this campaign. ”
When Wang Huaqiang heard this, he secretly praised Yang Su's clever skills, and there was nothing to say about the previous achievements, but the beheading of the defenders of Songjiang City was counted on Laihu'er, and sure enough, Laihu'er suddenly came back again, and happily stepped forward to thank Yang Su, and Shi Wansui beside him inadvertently hooked the corners of his mouth.
Yang Su glanced at Shi Wansui, Shi Wansui settled down and prepared to step forward for the third time, but he clearly heard it from Yang Su's mouth: "Wang Huaqiang, a Chinese soldier who joined the army, sneaked into the hinterland of the rebels alone before the army crossed the river, had many plans, entered Suzhou City to establish contact with General Huangfu, designed to drag Gu Ziyuan's army, and made war exploits in the process of pursuing the rest of the rebels, and should be the third in this battle." ”
Wang Huaqiang can't believe his ears, really? Yang Su actually rated himself the third credit for this battle? Happiness came so quickly that he froze in place, his mind empty, as if he was dreaming. (To be continued......)
