Chapter XVIII The Way of Governing the Army

Shen County is located in the southwest of Dongchang Mansion, east of Yanggu, west of the Daimyo Mansion, the geographical location is very important, so it is also one of the important places for the Qing army to attack.

The only advantage in the territory is that there are many rivers, and several rivers separate it from the Yanggu Daimyo Mansion as a barrier for Shen County, but Chu Suifeng knew that this was useless for those Qing troops who had snatched red eyes.

At the military meeting, he suggested to Liu Zeqing that all the ferries on the Shandong line of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal should be burned, and the walls of Zhucheng were cleared, which was unanimously reprimanded by Yao Wenchang and others.

"My lord, I'm not convinced!" Ding Keze, who was tied to a bare plane tree opposite, shouted irritably to Chong Chu in the wind.

He was a little unconvinced, why did Wu Shiyi make trouble and tie him up and beat him together?

Just now, he was caught by Chu Suifeng in a fight with Wu Shiyi, stripped off his upper body and tied to a tree to whip him, so that his back was covered with purple and red whip marks that were feet long.

"We're not convinced!" The soldiers who were selected by Ding Keze were also tied to trees and whipped, and at this moment they also shouted injustice.

Chu Suifeng glanced at those people, walked in front of Ding Keze with a heavy horsewhip, and snapped another whip!

There was a red whip mark on Ding Keze's bare chest, which made his whole body spasm for a while, and he gritted his teeth and stood up straight.

Many soldiers around saw that they were trembling, as if the long black whip was being drawn on their bodies, and they secretly sighed again, glad that they didn't make trouble with Wu Shiyi this time.

"Since Wu Shiyi was selected by you, he is your soldier! If the discipline is not strict, you deserve the same punishment! ”

Wu Shiyi, who was tied to the birch tree next to him, raised his head and sneered for a while, scolding like a bison with a rope.

"He's not my leader, and I'm not his soldier!"

Chu turned his head towards Wu Shiyi like a hungry wolf, and his sharp gaze made the other party unconsciously turn his head.

"Do you know what we are?"

Syllable!

A sharp whip slammed heavily on Ding Keze's strong chest muscles, and red blood slowly seeped out along the whip marks.

Ding Keze was so painful that he couldn't stand on his feet, and his whole body sank violently, if it weren't for the rope tightly tied to the tree, he would have fallen to the ground.

"It's the Qiu Ba! Dead and unburied! ”

Syllable!

After speaking, there was another heavy whip, and blood oozed from Ding Keze's mouth. The head hung down slowly.

The soldiers on the side screamed for a while, and some of them wanted to come up to inspect but were forced back by Chu Suifeng's fierce eyes!

"Boss!" Several soldiers tied to the tree, including Wu Shiyi, suddenly exclaimed in surprise, and hot tears flowed down their cheeks.

Although these people are some friends of wine and meat, they usually have mustard and make each other bad, but they have a love in life and death, and they have an indescribable brotherly love.

When the other person is proud, he will not sit idly by when the other person is suffering, especially because of each other's suffering.

"Because we're still brothers! Disobeying orders on the battlefield kills not just one person, but all your brothers! Since Ding Keze has chosen you, you are your leader, and you should be held responsible! ”

Chu Suifeng Tiger roared and glanced around, and there was a fierce whip in his hand!

Syllable!

Ding Keze's whole body was violently twisted for a while, and the whole person woke up spitting blood.

He dimly saw that Ma San's brothers were crying heartbreakingly, and Wu Shiyi, who was fighting with him, pulled his neck and yelled at Chu with the wind to be tortured, with a long-lost smile on his face.

"Boss, I'm sorry for you! I'm not a human, I'm not a human! Wu Shiyi, who was tied to the birch tree next to him, completely collapsed after roaring, and cried.

The crying made everyone's hearts miserable, but no one dared to come forward to plead.

Chu glanced around coldly with the wind, and his heart turned over the river and the sea.

The scenes of the past appeared in front of his eyes, originally when he was in the Tianxiong Army, he also had a good relationship with the soldiers below who were brothers, and many soldiers took him as a brother and disobeyed the general's orders, and as a result, he was the first to collapse when he faced Huanghu Zhang Xianzhong.

The soldiers ran unorganized and undisciplined, and were killed by the other side for a while, shaking the entire battle situation.

Lu Xiangsheng did not kill him, but whipped him one hundred and twenty horsewhips in public, telling him the truth of leading troops, and attaching equal importance to grace and might.

The army is like a country, and if there is no law, it will be chaotic, and it will die without discipline.

Now he whips Ding Keze with twenty-four lashes, in order to shed less blood and die less in wartime.

"My lord, Captain B's men are back!" There are sharp eyes pointing to a sweaty one in the distance. The rushing soldiers shouted.

Chu Suifeng looked up and knew that something big had happened, and immediately waved his hand.

"The whole team! Get ready for battle! ”

The soldiers had just seen Chu Suifeng's thunderbolt methods, and they didn't dare to hesitate, put down the food in their hands, and formed a somewhat chaotic spear array.

Chu Suifeng asked Liu Zeqing to replace all of them with brand-new spears after returning the inferior weapons, and the other party agreed without thinking about it, and distributed 800 new spears.

The reason is simple, guns are the lowest cost of these weapons.

Chu Suifeng also had his own plan for a spear: in the face of the Qing army wearing heavy armor, bows and arrows and knives did not play a big role.

Nurhachi, the ancestor of the Eight Banners, once served as a general under Li Chengliang, the general of the Ming army, and was quite familiar with the weapons and tactics of the Ming army.

In order to prevent being injured by the Ming army's bow and arrow firearms, the Qing army deliberately thickened the armor, so the bows and arrows were impermeable, and the damage of a single knife was greatly reduced.

The spear's damage is still the same, and he is basically stabbed by the spear, and the whole person is useless. The sharp spear has a strong penetrating power and can directly pierce the chest and abdomen of the armored man, injuring the internal organs.

Therefore, there is a calculation method circulating in the Ming army, shooting three arrows is equivalent to slashing one, and slashing three swords is equivalent to stabbing one shot.

As for those wooden shields that are still used against the Liukou bandits, they are useless against the Qing soldiers who are armed with bows and heavy arrows, so Chu Suifeng's army is full of spears.

and the whole team didn't collect that night and came to the front, only to see him gasping breathlessly.

"Far away...... Dozens of Qing soldiers...... Thousands of people are being hunted down, quick, fast. ”

After saying that, he got stuck and bent down.

The surrounding soldiers were noisy for a while, and their feet were a little shaken, knowing that they were going to fight against the Qing army, but they didn't expect it to be so fast.

Opportunity!

Chu shouted with a flash of light in his eyes and rushed around.

"We didn't expect the other party to be caught off guard by relying on more people to beat them! Listen to the command! Hurry forward and go to the hill to ambush. ”

Everyone felt justified, and the circle array instantly turned into several straight columns and rushed all the way forward.

Chu Suifeng saw that the corners of his mouth were about to ride his horse and whip at a 30-degree angle, and suddenly heard Ding Keze's hoarse voice from behind.

"My lord, mark down, mark down and be willing to go into battle to kill the enemy!"

Wu Shiyi and the others were stunned for a moment, and then shouted by pulling their necks.

"The little ones are willing to follow the adults to come forward and kill the enemy!"

Chu Suifeng glanced at Ding Keze, who was covered in scars, and whipped the horse's buttocks, and the horse's gray-brown front hooves were raised, and he ran forward with a smoke.

"Untie!"

When several soldiers heard the news, they went to the tree and relieved Ding Keze and Wu Shiyi.

******

When Yi Bang led people to the hill, he didn't find the ambush soldier and his family wanted to go back to eat, Yi Bang felt that it was inappropriate, this hill and the woods were fine, where was the surroundings?

So he took some grumbling soldiers to the top of the post, it doesn't matter if you don't go up, go up and see, a group of Manchu cavalry in the extreme distance is killing and abusing the people.

There were about 1,000 people like black spots, and the Qing army on horseback was like a pack of wolves chasing sheep, stabbing people down and killing them from time to time.

When the soldiers saw this, they were very panicked, for fear that a large number of Tartars would come over, and they would have 800 people, and if the Tartars were not too many, a hundred people would be able to destroy them to death.

Yi Bang was also a little flustered at the beginning, after all, the Tartars are different from the Liukou, the armor is thick and the soldiers are fine, and it is very difficult to fight, and they have been killed by the other party several times before.

But soon he calmed down, and his rich experience in warfare made him calm. After careful observation, he found that there were only a few dozen Qing soldiers on horseback, and they were all pikemen, and if they were ambushed and ambushed, the other party would have to fight, so he quickly sent someone back to report the news.

He had confidence in Chu Suifeng, from the previous rumors to the other party's actions in the past two days, he felt that the other party would not be stupid enough to give up this excellent opportunity.

"Captain, look! Chu Qianhu led the team to come! The soldier hiding behind a cyan rock whispered to Oto-kungai, who was deep in thought.

Yi Bang hurriedly looked back, and sure enough, the black Ming soldiers had already rushed to the foot of the hill......
