In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, the military camp of Huguang Town in Chenzhou City was already a busy scene. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Torches illuminated the entire barracks, and the soldiers were making final preparations before departure. The cavalrymen pulled the horses out of the stables next to the barracks and put them in saddles and stirrups; The auxiliaries carefully inspected the vehicles carrying grain and grass over and over again; The sergeants of the rest of the various branches were also busy sorting out their outfits and checking their weapons, armor, etc.

The departure is imminent, and the recruits are full of excitement and excitement. After all, they had never been on the battlefield before, and their knowledge of war was limited to the accounts of veterans, and they could not yet understand its cruelty in depth, so there was far more curiosity and excitement in their hearts than fear before they set out to fight.

Looking at the recruits who were eager to try, the officers and veterans were full of seriousness, and they kept sighing in their hearts: These raw melons and eggs who have only been trained for three months and don't know how many people will come back alive when the time comes.

Pang Yue also got up early in the morning, and after eating the breakfast cooked by Liu Bing'er herself, she couldn't stand her stubbornness, so she had to ask her to help her put on her armor and put on a red coat. Before leaving, the two said goodbye.

Bidding farewell to Liu Bing'er, Pang Yue and the same neatly dressed pro-soldier team went out of the general army yamen and went directly to the east gate to wait for the army to assemble.

At about midnight, the direction of the military camp in the city was thunderous, and outside the Huben camp that stayed in Chenzhou, the seven battalions of Huguang Town, a total of 20,000 troops, drove from the barracks to the east gate in turn, first made a short stay there, and passed through the general Pang Yue, the chief military officer, after inspecting the troops. Then officially embark on the journey.

The soldiers of Huguang Town, who drove out of the city, were all in good spirits, holding the weapons in their hands tightly, and walking on the streets of the city with neat and powerful steps. The armored sergeants were neatly draped, and the non-armored sergeants were also wearing new mandarin duck jackets and red hats. Although not all of them were armoured, the majestic appearance of the entire army still attracted the amazed and curious eyes of a large number of people.

Speaking of the equipping of this armor, a few days ago, Long Wenzhou had specifically found Pang Yue to ask for blame, not for anything else, because although the craftsmen of the clothing factory worked overtime day and night, the amount of armor that the army lacked was really large, and they still failed to make up the gap before the army set out. Today, there is still a shortage of more than thirty percent of the iron armor and iron-inlaid cotton armor required for the entire army of Huguang Town. Even the iron-leaf cotton armor worn by the auxiliary soldiers is more than 20% missing, but fortunately, there is no shortage of mandarin duck battle jackets, which can also ensure the minimum military appearance.

Faced with Long Wenzhou's "plea", Pang Yue just smiled generously. Let him not blame himself, and in the following time, urge the craftsmen to work hard to build, just make up for the shortfall, and transfer a part of the armor from the remaining Tiger Ben camp to match the soldiers for the expedition.

Soon, the seven battalions of 20,000 troops assembled outside the east gate. Lift your eyes up. I saw that under the banner of the Tiger Fu Army in Huguang Town, the dense soldiers held the weapons in their hands and stood like a benchmark. The strict queues, the various flags waving in the wind, the spears of the forest, the shining helmets, and the bright red armor all exude a momentum that shocks people's hearts.

Look at the majestic scene in front of you. Pang Yue's heart swayed with endless pride: the eldest husband is a human being, and he can have the opportunity to lead this royal division to fight the enemy. Even the horse leather shroud has no regrets!

With full of excitement, Pang Yue took the military book. A little bit of the officers above the thousand generals. The officers who were called came out of line one by one and loudly reported the situation of the officers and men under their command.

After the general finished inspecting the troops, Pang Yue glanced at the soldiers under the parade platform, and in a surging mood, he gave up the prepared speech draft, grabbed the fine iron spear beside him, pointed upwards diagonally, and shouted: "I am Huguang Town!" ――”

The response from the audience was suddenly like thunder on the ground: ...,

"Victory! ――”

"Victory!! ――”

"Victory!! ――”

……

Listening to the tsunami-like shouts of this mountain and looking at the solemn and majestic military appearance, Liu Chengyin and the rest of the generals in Wugang Town not far away couldn't help but show surprise in their eyes, and Zhu Dadian, as a supervisor, was shocked and admired Pang Yue and the new army under his command a little more.

On the morning of the seventh day of the second lunar month, more than 20 miles south of Shaozhou, Guangdong, there was an unknown foot of the mountain

This area, which was originally desolate, was now full of people, war horses roaring, only to see a large piece of red hat coat and money rat tail under the green flag swaying indiscriminately, and the Qing soldiers with a large red hat coat and money rat tail were fleeing while howling indiscriminately, only hating their father and mother for a few pairs of legs. Many people lost their weapons, and all kinds of banners were thrown all over the ground. Some of the hapless ghosts who had escaped too quickly accidentally fell to the ground, and before they could get up, they were trampled into flesh by countless pairs of feet rushing up behind them.

Closely following the fleeing Qing soldiers was a red-clad Ming army, and at the forefront were hundreds of cavalry. I saw that this Ming cavalry kept rushing back and forth in the panicked and scattered Qing soldiers, and the already scattered Qing army was even more unsightly. Although there were also many cavalry in the Qing army, almost no one dared to step forward to stop them at this moment, and the war horses under their crotches made their escape more convenient.

When the Ming cavalry completed the first round of strikes, the infantry behind them rushed into the loose ranks of the Qing army with a shout and slashed and slashed. The result of the formation of the army to kill the defeated soldiers who have lost the formation can be imagined, and many Ming soldiers can not even meet a single rebel even if they are soft.

When the Ming infantry were tired, they slowed down their pace a little and gave up a little position, and at this time, the Ming cavalry that had been circling around the periphery for a while would once again rush into the Qing army like a whirlwind and start another round of killing. It can be said that the coordination between the cavalry and infantry of the Ming army is quite tacit, and there has never been an accident after chasing for twenty miles in a row.

Under the crooked banner of the word "Zhang", Zhang Daoying, who was desperately riding his horse and galloping, had long since lost the vigor that he had led the troops here a month ago, his face was full of horror, his delicate helmet had disappeared, and the slender money rat tail behind his head kept trembling in the wind.

Listening to the endless screams behind him and the faint cheers such as "capture Zhang Daoying alive" and "capture Yan Keyi alive", Zhang Daoying didn't dare to look back at all, but just frantically knocked the spurs, and kept knocking the mount under him to blood, screaming in grief.

At this time, under the banner of the "king" of the Ming army, Wang Dongri, the chief soldier of Shaozhou, was excited. Just a few days ago, he didn't expect that his side would achieve such a big victory, but now thousands of Qing troops have indeed been killed by his own army and are powerless.

At the beginning of last month, Zhang Daoying, Li Chengdong's deputy general, led 2,000 descendants and 5,000 miscellaneous cards to Shaozhou City to collect the land for the Qing Dynasty.

If the Ming army in the city was some miscellaneous cards that had already been frightened, Zhang Daoying's goal might be achieved soon. But it is a pity that Wang Dongri and thousands of regular battalions under his command are guarding Shaozhou, and there is no psychological disadvantage in the face of Zhang Daoying. As a result, Zhang Daoying's intermittent attack lasted until the middle of the first month, but the green flag representing the Qing Dynasty's royal division had been circling outside the city, but the Ming army in the city gradually entered the state, and even many Ming officers and soldiers who fled into Shaozhou City in a panic began to wake up violently, feeling ashamed that they had been defeated by the group of people outside the city.

Seeing that he could not capture Shaozhou, Zhang Daoying was a little breathless, and wanted to bypass Shaozhou to attack Nanxiong and other places further north, but the Ming army in the city seemed to know his intentions, and when he saw that he had signs of pulling out the camp, he went out of the city and prepared to follow the attack. Zhang Daoying also knew that the composition of these thousands of men and horses under his command was complicated, except for the two thousand slightly more reliable descendants, most of them were very unreliable former Ming army miscellaneous cards, once they were chased by others, the consequences would be unimaginable, so he gave up the plan to pull out the camp and meet the Ming army out of the city. Unexpectedly, as soon as they saw that he was not leaving, the Ming army in the city retreated into the city. …,

Zhang Daoying, who was treated as a monkey, had no choice but to continue to confront the Ming army and continue to increase the siege of the city. At the beginning of February, the situation became more and more unfavorable for Zhang Daoying, the grain and grass in the army continued to decrease, and several small teams he sent to collect grain and grass were also ambushed by the Ming army. The morale of the army is declining day by day.

In the early hours of this morning, the situation of confrontation between the two armies was finally completely broken. Taking advantage of the low morale of the Qing army, Wang Dongri led his army out of the city to attack at night, but the smooth development of things later was completely beyond his expectations. The Qing army, which had been suppressed for a month, actually had a camp roar after being suddenly attacked, and the miscellaneous cards of the former Ming army who had just shaved their heads actually pinched each other with Zhang Daoying's descendants, and the whole camp was in chaos. The camp roar and the enemy attack occurred at the same time, even if Zhang Daoying had the ability to reach the sky, there was nothing he could do, and in a panic, he had to flee at night with Yan Keyi and other generals of Li Cheng's eastern lineage with soldiers and horses that could still be controlled.

Wang Dongri led the army to take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and chased it out twenty miles away.

"Stop the pursuit!" After chasing such a long distance, he had already achieved good results, and the situation ahead was unknown, so Wang Dongri chose to accept it when he saw it, ordered to stop the pursuit, and arranged people to guard and clean up the battlefield.

I didn't pay much attention to the pursuit, and when I returned along the way, Wang Dongri, who had recovered from the excitement of killing the enemy, and the Ming officers and soldiers felt the shocking scene in front of them: the chaotic green flags, various weapons and the corpses of the Qing soldiers stretched from the direction of Shaozhou all the way to here, and a large number of Qing soldiers were still trembling and kneeling in place waiting to surrender to the Ming army.

"Hahaha, my lord, what a victory!" Ding Shilong, the deputy general of Shaozhou whose face was covered with blood, looked up to the sky and laughed, and his smile looked particularly hideous. The rest of the generals also laughed loudly.

Yes, with so many gains, it can naturally be regarded as a great victory, and northern Guangdong is worry-free! It seems that Brother Pang was not wrong in the letter, the Qing captives who came to Shaozhou were really dominated by a rabble, as long as they responded calmly, there was no need to worry! Wang Dongri, who was also smiling from ear to ear, said silently in his heart, but after a while, he was a little puzzled: Brother Pang is far away in Chenzhou, why are they so familiar with the deployment of the Guangdong Qingyu? (To be continued.) )
