The bright sword light flashed, and dozens of human heads rolled to the ground.

Zuo Liangyu stood outside the gate of the Liaodong Governor's Yamen, watching the soldiers of his right battalion execute with an expressionless face.

He was dressed in heavy armor: half of the pheasant's tail feathers on the top of the iron sash on his head had been burned off by fire; A few of the leaves on the armor had been shattered by arrows, and if it weren't for the cotton armor inside, he would have been wounded by the arrows; In the sack on his waist, there was only one wolf's tooth arrow left, and the rest went without saying that all of them were pierced into those hapless rebels.

The tall black horse behind him was led by his henchmen, and his smooth fur was covered with shiny sweat, and it was like that, and from time to time it snorted and shaved its hooves, and looked like it had not run to the end; On the hook of the horse's buttocks, hung a three-pointed, two-edged knife, which was covered with blood of varying freshness, and the blade was almost dyed black.

After a faint sigh, Zuo Liangyu turned his face blackened by gunpowder smoke and glanced at Ningyuan City, which was still smoking everywhere under the sunset, and on the cross street, there were figures everywhere, either holding a water urn to fight the fire, or carrying the corpses of dead relatives, or picking up objects in the ruins of his house with a scorched face.

The mutiny triggered by Liu and Sun was fierce and devastating -- in addition to the more than 3,000 rebels who fled from the city with them, there were still more than 1,000 people in the city who took advantage of the fire to loot.

Among the thirteen battalions of Ningyuan, Zu Dashou and Zhao Shujiao, who were the strongest, were not in the city because they welcomed Yuan Chonghuan, while the other battalion leaders were more or less involved in the rebellion.

It took him almost half a day to finally put out the rebellion in Ningyuan City; After killing hundreds of people and kidnapping thousands, Ning Yuancheng finally restored basic order.

I thought about it. After Zuo Liangyu instructed his henchmen to find a few of his subordinates, and left one of them to maintain order in the city, he turned on his horse and went out of the south gate with the rest of the troops - he had to go outside the city to see what happened to the warehouses and docks by Liu Zeqing.

After walking for about half an hour, Zuo Liangyu came to the small hill.

On the hills of Zhuma, the scene in front of him surprised him who had thought he would see a piece of scorched earth.

Warehouses and docks are not only there. And in good order!

The mountains of grain bales on the wharf are being carried into the warehouse by the servants in an endless stream; Except for a few places where there was still a slight smoke, the warehouse was intact, and a few small officials were holding account books to count the grain in storage.

Zuo Liangyu rubbed his eyes, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, didn't Liu Zeqing pass by here? Why is there almost no trace of rebellion?

When his gaze turned to the fields to the south, his doubts vanished: the corpses strewn all over the ground, the wounded soldiers covering their wounds and groaning, and the chaotic soldiers tied up in a string of ropes, made him realize that there had indeed been a bloody battle here.

New doubts came to my mind again: Looking at it like this, Liu Zeqing's 3,000 rebellious soldiers were defeated, but all the battalions were in Ningyuan City. Where did the battalion leader come from to be so strong that he could defeat the red-eyed rebels - these are people who have no way out, and with the lure of goods in the warehouse, that combat effectiveness must not be taken lightly!

"What? The grain transport team from Dengzhou? Only a little more than a hundred? ”

When the bullish Ambassador Cang briefly explained the situation, Zuo Liangyu's eyes were still wide--if it weren't for Ambassador Cang's fame, his horsewhip would have been whipped on the other party.

How many people can kill so many rebels and capture hundreds of them? When I Zuo Liangyu is an idiot?

Unless it is the help of the gods, it is absolutely impossible!

But with a little scrutiny of the battlefield. Coupled with the corroboration of those officials who witnessed the whole battle, Zuo Liangyu gradually believed that there was really such a strong army in the world. With more than 100 people, it can resist 3,000 red-eyed rebels! And it's still a wild wave fight!

Marvel! A miracle in no compromise!

The sophisticated firearms, the strict formation, the command of the orders and prohibitions, and the precision of the ship's artillery created this seemingly impossible miracle - Zuo Liangyu, who was old in the army, finally came to this conclusion after restoring the entire battle.

Could it be that Dengzhou Bingbeidao came in person? But looking at the posture, even the Chinese army in Dengzhou is not so elite!

"Soldiers?" When Zuo Liangyu tentatively opened his mouth to ask. The ambassador smiled disapprerovingly, "What kind of soldiers!" It's just a small ear. Ambassador Cang was grateful for Chu Fan's life-saving grace and promised to cover up the past for him.

Ambassador Cang's answer made Zuo Liangyu's curiosity completely burst.

What kind of little official is so powerful, he can actually bring out such a strong soldier, he must see it!

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Just when Zuo Liangyu was probing the battlefield. Dozens of miles away from him, the "Golden Phoenix" was galloping southward.

That's right, Chu Fan commanded the pillars and they cleaned up the battlefield as fast as they could, and after unloading the food, they left in a hurry - after a bitter victory, he didn't want to see anyone in Ningyuan City at all, including his senior brother Sun Yuanhua.

It was indeed a bitter victory, 31 people were wounded in this battle, and 9 were killed; And Chu Fan's personal guards, there are only three people alive, including Doudou who is hanging in one breath!

People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and they can bring out such elite troops with a white body and achieve such amazing results, Chu Fan doesn't have to think about it to know what the high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Ningyuan, especially the ambitious and talented Yuan Inspector, will do after hearing this.

Whether it was a wish made by an official or a temptation of money, in short, he would do everything he could to keep himself, including the A-word whistle, in Ningyuan.

Can you stay in Ningyuan? Can the A-word whistle stay in Ningyuan?

Staying in Ningyuan meant officially becoming an official of the Ming Dynasty, becoming part of the Guanning Army, and becoming the economic division of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, there are advantages to this, that is, you can train and fight Tartars in a justifiable manner.

But its negative impact is unacceptable to Chu Fan: first of all, when he becomes an official, he is constrained everywhere, not to mention, he has to look at the face of the official; At the same time, you have to prevent those red-eyed generals from digging their corners; Even if you don't get dug up at the foot of the wall, who will be an outsider who is not cannon fodder?

These are all okay, and there are two reasons why Chu Fan is respectful of Guan Ningjun in his heart.

One is the stubbornness and unscrupulousness of its leader: Yuan Chonghuan's lack of strategic vision has long been a foregone conclusion in later generations, and what is even more terrifying is his extreme rigidity, unless he is wholeheartedly a slave, otherwise if he is a little rebellious, he will definitely be driven away or even killed by him!

No one wants to work under such a leader, and Chu Fan is the same.

The second is that the Guanning Army is like a big dye vat, and no matter how good the cloth is, it will be dyed with bells and whistles -- if the Jiazi whistle is placed in such an environment, it is estimated that it will not be long before it will be infected with all kinds of vices of other battalion soldiers, and will it still be able to maintain its combat effectiveness at that time?

Besides, being teammates with people like the escaped general Wu Xiang and the fraudulent general Zu Dashou, Chu Fan's spine was chilling when he thought about it.

If you're not afraid of god-like opponents, you're afraid of pig-like teammates!

Therefore, Chu Fan firmly chose to cover it up - blocking Ambassador Cang's mouth with life-saving grace was only one of them, in order to keep those little officials watching the battle from talking nonsense, he did not throw less silver.

Now, he could be sure that the truth about this battle would never be fully known by the people of Ning Yuan City. As for how to deal with the aftermath, it is time to worry about Dengzhou Bingbeidao.

Chu Fan dealt with it without leakage, but what he didn't know was that because of the flapping wings of his little butterfly, history had changed dramatically.

Liu Zeqing, who was supposed to go to Shandong as a general soldier, surrendered to Tatars 17 years ahead of schedule; And Zuo Liangyu, who should have been dismissed after the Ningyuan Mutiny, stayed because of Liu Zeqing's top cylinder.

Is this good or bad? (To be continued.) )
