Chapter 277: We Are Also the Ming Army!
"Lord Commander, after this family fort, twenty miles west is the boundary of Gansu Town. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
At this moment, the 3,000 men and horses of Gansu Town, which rushed south through Jingyuwei, passed through Quanjiabao and converged with the two thousand households left behind by Jingyuwei, and the strength of the army reached nearly 4,000 people.
But Yang Jiamo didn't have any confidence in his heart, and there was no news from Ma Shilong, the commander of the reinforcement army who had made an appointment to march at the same time.
And his subordinates do not receive the news and other sporadic receipts, the thief army plays mixed flags, etc., no less than tens of thousands of strong, so it is inferred that the thieves must be 100,000 people, he only has 4,000 soldiers and horses, and there is almost no backup, if he can't gain a firm foothold in Gansu Town, then his back road is about to be lost.
"The order went down, and the two thousand households that ordered Jing Yuwei to be stationed around the Quanjiabao were stationed around the whole family fort to cover the rear road of the army."
There are only seven or eight hundred people in these two thousand households on the left and right, and looking at it, they are all old, weak, sick and disabled.
At the beginning, in order to deal with the invasion of the Mongol army in the north, Hong Chengchou, the governor of the three sides, had already withdrawn the main elite of Jingyuwei, and the rest of them were enough to be a soldier and a civilian man, so it was better to guard the road behind him, and there was a way out.
"Chief soldier, I look a little evil, this is not right."
Zhao Quanzhong, a garrison officer under Yang Jiamo, is now suspicious, he is in charge of the official army for more than 100 nights, and the news collected and summarized really makes him unclear about the movements of the thief army.
"Let's talk about it," Yang Jiamo was also unsure,
The soldiers and horses left behind in Gansu Xingdu Division and Gansu Town had as many as three guards, and the border army of more than 10,000 people was completely wiped out without even resisting for a month.
He didn't want to rush into the army, if he was ambushed, no one would come to his rescue.
"Chief soldier, all the brothers who don't collect at night can only reach a dozen miles of land, and farther away, they will be driven back by the thieves' horse team,"
Zhao Quanzhong analyzed with a bitter face,
"In the past, it's not like we haven't fought with thieves, but we look at the young people who are all patchwork, and they have no rules and no military discipline when they fight, but this time!"
"What's going on this time? Aren't they just some rookies? ”
Yang Jiamo didn't want to be cowardly before fighting, if he lost his spirit, how could he bring the troops.
Zhao Quanzhong nodded, but the haze on his face still did not go away, and continued,
"Lord Commander, let's be careful, I look at this thief army, it seems that there are a lot of horse teams, haven't we met the main force of the thief army?"
"Bullshit, where did you get so many main thieves?"
Yang Jiamo said disdainfully, and pointed to the east side of the road,
"Yansui Li Jing sent a report, Yanan, hundreds of thousands of people in Xi'an's Great Broken Thief Army, beheaded thousands, even if it is fake, it must be the main force of the thief army in person."
He also said, "Suppressing the general army officer Ma Daren, there are tens of thousands of thieves in front of him, and he is also the main force, and the thief army is only a few hundred thousand people, where is there enough strength to take care of Gansu Town, I see that after sweeping the place, he forcibly drove the chaotic people who came, if he really has tens of thousands of main forces, can An Neng not go north to attack Jingyu?" ”
When Zhao Quanzhong heard it, he was right, and he shouldn't have argued with his boss, so he could only step back for the time being and arrange to strengthen the night inspection.
"Walk another ten miles today, and then set up camp."
Although Yang Jiamo said this, but when he thought of the tens of thousands of people on the opposite side, and the strength he showed, he didn't dare to slack off, these years, he can live to this day, he is not a fool, he is disdainful, but he must cheer up in his heart to deal with it, one is not good, and it is possible for the whole army to be wiped out.
Otherwise, there are so many military households and garrisons in the interior of Shaanxi, how can they not escape from any of them, and they have lost three princes, and they have to be lucky, with Hong Chengchou on top, otherwise the Ganzhou garrison will lose the king of Su, and it is not enough to cut off three heads.
It's a pity that what he didn't know was that in the three directions in front of him, the main force of the beggar army that surrounded him was close to four battalions and twelve independent troops, all about 9,000 men and horses, and a cavalry of more than 400 people, which began to move along the Great Wall to his flank, and it was clear at the beginning that it was to completely annihilate his troops.
……
"You are Hong Chengchou?"
Li Jing looked at the old man in front of him, and listened to his subordinates say that in order to see him, he deliberately washed three times, and after bathing and changing clothes, he asked people to bring him here, what kind of habit is this.
I don't care about my own safety, but I first let him be clean and tidy, and then he is willing to see people.
"This official is exactly,"
Hong Chengchou looked at him indifferently, this is not pretending, for Hong Mou, who has killed countless bandit leaders in his hands, Li Jing is almost no different from other thieves, it is nothing more than that he looks lighter in age.
"This officer?"
Li Jing smiled and walked around the room for a short time, then turned his back to him and thought for a while,
"Maybe ten days ago, you could still call yourself that, the governor of the three sides of the imperial court, oh, by the way, he is also the imperial envoy of the right capital of the Imperial Court, what a big official."
Someone said teasingly, sat back on the table again, and poured the tea with it,
"You are also the official, but unfortunately, I am also the official."
Seeing Hong Chengchou's shocked look, Li Jing wanted to laugh, but he simply didn't hang his appetite, and directly said clearly,
"This official is currently the governor of the right capital of the imperial court, the deputy chief military officer who led Shaanxi to suppress and support, and the chief military officer of Yansui Town, the actual official, is still under the command of the former governor."
This is true, when Li Jing took office as the deputy commander-in-chief of the army, Hong Chengchou was still the governor of the three sides of Shaanxi and had never been imprisoned by the imperial court.
"You?"
Hong Chengchou was really shocked, he thought that he was caught by the thieves' troops, but now that he heard this, he understood.
"You rebel and thief."
"This official was originally born in the righteous army, and he took refuge in the imperial court, just for this tiger skin to do things, why should the governor be angry."
Li Jing laughed, but his eyes looked at him, full of disdain and disdain, and secretly said that you are a traitor, and you will do more than me in the future.
"Hmph, I'm ashamed to be in the company of people like you."
Hong Chengchou doesn't know what to say now, according to his identity, reprimand, it's not appropriate now, if he angers him, maybe he will be slashed against himself.
But if you pretend to be deaf and dumb, won't you provoke the contempt of others in vain? After all, he is still the governor of the imperial court.
But a few thoughts flashed sharply in my heart, but they were all ruled out one by one, so I simply didn't look at them, closed my eyes, and hid from them.
"Doesn't the Governor want to live?"
Li Jing slapped his face, the door was pushed open in an instant, four guards came in with blades, and one of the leaders clasped his fists and obeyed the order,
"My lord, please command."
"Within ten breaths, if you haven't spoken, take it down."
He is busy with official business every day, so he has the heart to meet this kind of historical celebrity and satisfy the bad taste in his heart, how can he have time to spend time with this kind of person, he really takes himself seriously, if it weren't for the name of the second minister he left in history, Li Jing would not have had the time to care about him.
If you want to see Cao Wenzhao, you can only see a fierce general, but unfortunately there is only one corpse, at that time on the battlefield, it is inevitable that you will die and I will die, and you can't be captured alive, so you can only eliminate things.
"A soldier can be killed, but not humiliated!" Hong Chengchou pressed the table heavily, but he still opened his mouth, just like ten years later, he did in history, people are not sages! Who dares to say that they are not afraid of death!
"That's a disgrace."
Li Jing waved his hand indifferently, motioned for the soldiers to come in, and dragged out a pretentious high-ranking man who was still gritting his teeth.
"Hmph, I really treat myself as a dish."
Li Jing picked up an official document on the table with his hand, looked up at it roughly, and suddenly fell into a trance......
"We are also Ming soldiers, brother, you have killed the wrong person."
A small flag of the barracks under the command of Gansu Town, shouting vigorously, but unfortunately, everywhere you look, there is a scene of slaughter, yes, after nightfall, the Ming army stationed in the camp is being chased everywhere at this moment, the flames are soaring, and the corpses are all over the place.
"Knowing that you are the Ming Army, grandpa killed you!"
A beggar soldier in almost the same armor roared, and rushed up to meet him with a slash, slashing the flag to the ground, and even then, someone did not let it go, until he swallowed his breath and looked for the next target.
This is the fate of Yang Jiamo's light soldiers, he is about ten miles left and right to spread the night without harvest, was eaten by the superior scouts of the begging army one by one, after nightfall, the main force of the begging army surrounded on all sides, in the first fire of the twenty-five tiger squatting cannons, broke out on all sides, raised torches and slaughtered into the camp of Gansu Town.
Because Yang Jiamo was too optimistic about his situation, the place to set up camp was in a flat land that was open on all sides, but it happened to be dark and windy tonight.
The soldiers who watched the night and the guards did not collect the night, and they were solved one by one by the scouts of the beggar army, and without making a loud noise, thousands of men and horses touched the distance of less than 300 paces around their tents, and only then lit torches and rushed to the camp.
Caught off guard, the three thousand elites of Gansu Town collapsed once they had no time to put up any effective resistance, and the most unacceptable thing for them was that the beggar soldiers who rushed into the battle didn't even do their hidden work, and they directly wore the robes and armor they had always had.
Almost regarded by the officials and soldiers of Gansu Town as their own people, it is no wonder that before this small flag died, he had to shout wildly, and I am also the words of the Ming army.
If someone who doesn't know is present and sees it, I'm afraid it can really be thought that the two Ming armies are fighting each other, because whether it is a battle robe, armor, or standard weapons, there is no difference between the two sides.
"Let's go,"
Yang Jiamo was so shocked that he didn't even have time to put on the armor, so he was dressed in a single clothes, exposed to the cold wind, and the cold was shivering, but his life was at stake, where could he take care of so much, with the help of a few guards, he got a war horse, and then galloped out aimlessly into the night......
