Chapter 77 Sacrificial Flag

Yue Su led an army of 20,000 troops, left Shanxi, and rushed to Feihukou. Along the way, they all sent meteor scouts to spy on the news in the area of Flying Fox Pass. According to the spies' reply, after the robbers from Feihukou defeated the imperial court, they became even more aggressive, going to the surrounding villages from time to time to loot and disturb the premises. Not only that, but also recruited a large number of local homeless people and scoundrels in the market, and the momentum was even stronger.

On the side of the imperial court, he issued an order urging Yue Su to march and arrive at the Flying Fox Pass as soon as possible to quell the rebels.

On this day, Yue Su finally arrived at the Flying Fox Pass, and the army camped under the Flying Fox Pass, and led the generals to inspect the enemy situation under the mouth. The Flying Fox Pass is the junction of the Taihang Mountains and the Yan Mountains and the Hengshan Mountains. The average altitude is between meters, the widest point is only 7 to 100 meters, and the narrowest point, only 2 to 3 meters, and only one ox cart and mule can be missed. At the commanding heights, there is a camp, and it is thought to be a large camp of robbers. In such an attack, the other party is condescending, and there are more than a few people who are not enough to die, and they have to use red-coated cannons.

However, Yue Su did not propose an attack, but expressed the imperial court, first, to urge food, and secondly, to ask for the officers and soldiers who were escorted to the army.

The emperor naturally met his request, and the soldiers who escorted the military pay were quickly delivered. The imperial court will naturally strictly interrogate the matter of losing military salaries, and under the strict interrogation of Dongchang, it has been asked how many robbers are really robbed, in line with the principle of not blaming the public, but the face of the thousand general, the general to cut down, the following soldiers, that is, cut off the military status.

Escorted to Yue Su's side, Lord Yue was not used to illness at all, pulled out the red-coated cannon, and ordered a bombardment of the rebel camp on the top of the mountain, and after the bombardment, those soldiers were pulled out and beheaded one by one.

Of course, before the beheading, the crime must also be declared - those who have escaped from the battle, beheaded!

There are more than 2,000 officers and soldiers to be beheaded, and they have not yet been cut down in the city of Beijing, so how can they be escorted here, but they will be beheaded. The big guy begged for mercy repeatedly, but Lord Yue just sank his face and threw the chopping lot.

Kill!

One by one, human heads fell to the ground one after another, and more than 2,000 heads, blood stained the flying fox's mouth. Yue Su is a purge of military discipline, and it is also a knock on the mountain and the tiger. After the execution, Yue Su gave the order to go down, but if there are any more escapees, this is a model.

The shelling had already knocked the rebels of the mountain dizzy, and when they came to their senses, they noticed that the beheadings were being cut off at the bottom of the mountain. In this mountain, there are thousands of bandits from the Dragon Slaying Gang, and the others are just a rabble of newly joined gangsters. For those bandits, this kind of pomp and circumstance is acceptable, but for those rabble, it is really terrible. )

"The rebels of the mountain listen, the imperial army has arrived, if you know each other, it is not too late to surrender now, Rao Er and wait for a way out. If you don't surrender now, you won't surrender in the future, and you won't be killed! Yue Su shouted loudly. Immediately, the officers and soldiers below shouted in high-pitched voices.

The shouts of 20,000 officers and soldiers can be described as earth-shattering, and the rebels in the mountains can hear them clearly. The big guy is just a mess of food, but when he encounters this real person, he is also afraid in his heart, those bandits can be stronger, and those who run tricks later are trembling all over their bodies. If it weren't for the fear that he would be killed by his accomplices if he ran down like this, it is estimated that half of them would have surrendered on the spot.

Lord Yue's patience was limited, so he ordered the soldiers to shout in unison three times, estimating that the enemy's morale had loosened a lot, so he gave the order again and opened fire.

"Boom!" ……

The two red-clothed cannons fired together, and the big iron ball rushed out, and in an instant, the rebel camp was smashed with thousands of holes. Many of the rebels were killed under shelling. The advantage of this red-clothed cannon is that Cheng Yuan is powerful, and the big iron ball that blasts out can smash the city wall into cracks, not to mention a wooden camp.

"Mr. Ye, the artillery of the official army is too powerful, the camp has been smashed, and many brothers have been injured, what should we do now?"

In the camp of the rebel Chinese army, the top brass of the rebels immediately convened an emergency meeting. Presiding over the meeting were the great benevolent Xing Ming'an and Mr. Ye, who joined the meeting, the helmsman and deputy helmsman under the master of the torture hall, and the four guys in strange costumes under Mr. Ye.

Mr. Ye is known as the No. 1 think tank of the Dragon Slaying Gang, Xing Ming got up, and the big guys moved their eyes to Mr. Ye together.

"Let's retreat into the mountain, we have cleared the surrounding terrain, as long as Yue Su leads the mountain, we are in the dark, he is in the light, and there is a chance for him at any time." Mr. Ye is at ease.

"But what if he doesn't follow up?" Xing Ming'an asked again.

"Even if he doesn't follow up, he will guard at the bottom of the mountain, we have plenty of food and grass, are we still afraid of consuming it with him? Moreover, I estimate that Yue Su also came by order this time, and he didn't dare to return in vain, the order given to us by the lord was just to drag the main force of the imperial court, Yue Su's men and horses were already regarded as the main force of the imperial court, and he would be stumped, and the lord would be much easier if he was in Shaanxi, and our task would be completed. In the end, the lord didn't expect our men to be able to wipe out Yue Su. Mr. Ye was an understatement.

In Mr. Ye's heart, there is always a thought of refusing to be an enemy of Yue Su, and it is best to be able to innocently drag it and not use weapons.

"Boom!"

The sound of artillery sounded outside again, accompanied by the screams of their own people. Seeing that there is really no other way, you can't sit here and wait for death, God knows which cannon can fly into this Chinese army's big tent. Xing Ming'an nodded his head and said, "Just do what Mr. Ye wants, let's retreat to Niujiaofeng where grain and grass are hoarded first." ”

Those rebels, in fact, wanted to retreat for a long time, and as soon as they got the order to retreat, they would retreat when they lost their heads.

Because the enemy village is really a certain distance from the foot of the mountain, and the rebels do not pull out the camp, how can the officers and soldiers below know that the rebels have fled from behind. The camp of the rebels happened to be on the commanding heights, and behind the camp was downhill, but it was not there.

After an hour of shelling, the rebel camp was bombarded, and Yue Su felt that it was almost over, and immediately ordered to attack.

Due to the previous use of more than 2,000 first-class sacrificial flags, the officers and soldiers under Yue Su's command became spiritually uplifted, and they all raised a hundredfold spiritual head, and Lord Yue asked them to rush, and no one dared to slack off, they were swarming. It's better to be obedient under 'Yue Shaving Your Head', otherwise you can really shave your head.

Rong Ma rushed all the way to the mountain, did not encounter the slightest resistance, and when he entered the rebel camp, he found that the rebel camp had already been empty. If you don't get to the enemy, that's the best, the soldiers are stationed in the same place, and someone comes down to report it.

After Yue Su learned about it, he led the mountain, and when he stepped on this commanding height, he couldn't help but shake his head again and again. Taihang Mountain is a hundred miles longitudinal and horizontal, the mountains are stacked and green, the mountains are inexhaustible, the mountains are mountains, the mountains are mountains, the peaks are peaks, in this place, don't hide thousands of people, even if 10,000 people go in, want to dig it out, it is almost the same as looking for a needle in a haystack.

"The rebels are hiding in the mountains, where else can they find this?"

You must know that during the Anti-Japanese War, our road army relied on this Taihang Mountain, and the devil caught the New Year's hidden, and the devil did not find the main force of the road army on the day of surrender, which shows how big this Taihang Mountain is. At that time, the devil still had a plane to investigate, what did Yue Su have on hand now.

Jiang Mingyue Su's thoughts were on the side, and he said: "My lord, the traitors have escaped into the mountains, if you take the initiative to find them, I am afraid it will be very difficult to find them." Now at the end of the year, there are good strategies for the middle and lower, and the adults can choose to act on one of them. ”

"Oh? Sir taught me. As soon as Yue Su heard that Jiang Jie had a way, he hurriedly asked.

"The strategy is that the rebels have escaped into the mountains, and they will definitely not understand the feelings of the outside world. The adults can leave 5,000 men and horses to bluff at the foot of the mountain, and the rest of the horses will rush to Shaanxi with food and wages, and the Rong horses in Shanxi and the Rong horses in Shaanxi will quickly exterminate the rebels of the Dragon Gang by converging with Shanxi. If the general's guess is correct, the rebels in this mountain must be members of the Dragon Slaying Gang, intending to contain the main force of the imperial court. ”

Yue Su listened, nodded his head, and said: "What Mr. said is good, but the emperor sent me here to suppress the bandits, if I lead the main force to leave, once the rebels know, they will definitely go down the mountain to rob the camp, our army is invincible, after the defeat, the rebels took the opportunity to attack and disturb the surrounding areas of the capital, the emperor is angry, and the people are robbed, I am afraid it is inappropriate." ”

"My lord's concern is, but my lord should also know that if you don't go to Shaanxi to supervise the war, I am afraid that it will be difficult to exterminate the rebels for a while."

Yue Su bowed his head again and said, "Yes, too." But I don't know what are the two strategies of Mr.? ”

"The middle strategy of the last general is to train troops in the Flying Fox Mouth, and the current imperial court has no combat power, and the adults have just killed a hundred people, or it may have some effect, but it is only in the implementation of military orders. There are still many deficiencies in the battle array, charging into battle. If you sharpen your temper here for three months, improve your combat effectiveness, and then turn to Shaanxi to suppress bandits, you will definitely be able to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. ”

"Training here?" Yue Su's eyes couldn't help but light up, the quality of the army, he also knew in his heart, he could only use more to defeat the few, if he fought more with less, it was estimated that he would be defeated in a battle. His own army was also instigated by the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and the soldiers who escorted the military salaries were all of the same grade, that is, relying on their own reputation, they could be suppressed, and they fought more and less in every battle, so they did not show their shortcomings. But in case of a tough battle, it will be in vain, and it is not a good thing to take the opportunity to boil up in Taihang Mountain now. "Sir's proposal is very good, so what is the next step?"

"If you want to fight a decisive battle with the rebels, it will not be impossible, but you must use the adults as bait to lure the snake out of the hole." Jiang Jie used a lowered voice to come up with the last strategy.

"Using Ben Shuai as bait to lure the snake out of the hole, this idea sounds good, you are detailed." Yue Su said curiously.

"Your Excellency is now the governor of the five provinces, and the imperial court is a first-class feudal territory, if you can capture or kill your lord alive, the world will inevitably shake again, the morale of the rebels will be greatly boosted, and the morale of the officers and soldiers will be reduced. Therefore, as long as the adult deliberately gives the traitor a chance and makes a flaw, the traitor must take the initiative and go all out to fight the adult. ”

Yes, Yue Su is now the governor of the five provinces, and he is fully responsible for suppressing bandits, if the supreme suppression of bandits sent by the imperial court is killed, then the back and forth of the traitors is a great thing, and what a heavy impact it will be to the imperial court. The morale of the rebels was greatly boosted, which was much more effective than usurping a city and a place.
