Chapter 372: Retribution is unpleasant
Zhao Lie looked at the corpses of people and horses scattered all over the mile, as well as the wounded soldiers and horses who were still screaming, he shook his head speechlessly, although his heart was much colder and harder now, but everything in front of him still made him disgusted from the bottom of his heart. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The bloodlines of a nation collide here, which may make Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng and others very excited, but it will only make Zhao Lie deeply disgusted.
In the distance, the Breakers left some of their men and horses to collect the wounded, and the rest of the army began to pursue the fleeing rebels.
The rebels who rushed out of the formation were no more than a few hundred people, and some of the others fled the way they came, and some came to the terraces on both sides, abandoned their horses and began to climb the mountain, as long as they could escape death, all means had to be tried.
After the meal, several guards carried a bloodied rebel general.
A guard rudely grabbed the person's hair bun and lifted his head, and Zhao Lie saw that it was Kong Youde, the marshal of the rebel army and the former general of Dengzhou Town.
Kong Youde was able to survive precisely because of his iron armor and a certain amount of luck, but now he has multiple fractures all over his body, and he can't sit up, and he doesn't have the grandeur of Marshal Du, who was majestic an hour ago.
"Yo, isn't this the arrival of Marshal Du?" Yu Dabao sneered, his mouth is also very damaged now, and it can be regarded as a kind of progress, which is different from the clumsy mouth and clumsy cheeks in the past.
"Zhao Lie, you despicable villain, you and I should have joined forces to fight against the imperial court, but you stabbed you from behind, you will also be my fate in the future, and you will not die well." Kong Youde, whose face was bruised and swollen, ignored Yu Dabao, and he spit out a mouthful of blood and scolded.
"Haha, Marshal Du's words are wrong, all the agreements are used to tear up, the former Song Song Jin collegiate council, Song Yuan collegial council, which time is not the case, that is, Marshal Du used this trick to appease Zhu Wannian and caught Xie Lian. Let thousands of Ming soldiers die, this promise breaking thing must not be told by Marshal Du. ”
Zhao Lie let out a long laugh, Kong Youde actually talked about private transactions, which was really funny.
It is just that the rebels have deceived several governors of Denglai in Shandong one by one, and even played with the supervisor Liu Yulie, which is just a repeated empty talk to lure the enemy.
What Zhao Lie did really can't compare with these people. Kong Youde, Li Jiucheng and other rough men played with the metacarpal bones of the court officials who read poetry and books, and he Zhao Lie sighed to himself.
"It's useless to say more," Kong Youde's old face flushed, but fortunately, he couldn't see it at all at this time, "Just one thing, the court and Chongzhen are so jealous of your Zhao family, you shouldn't be sitting on the benefits of the fisherman, why let that Huangkou child sitting in the capital master benefit." ”
Kong Youde was puzzled.
"That's the same way," Zhao Lie looked at the wreckage of the battlefield around him. He stretched out his hand and said angrily, "Would you like to see your good men lying in this filthy dust?"
Zhao Lie's sharp eyes looked at Kong Youde, and Kong Youde's heart trembled, "I heard that Marshal Du is planning to take refuge in Dajin." ”
Zhao Lie suddenly teleported, and Kong Youde was surprised, "How do you know." His answer was completely subconscious.
How horrible this is. Kong Youde, Chen Shishi, Li Jiucheng, Mao Chenglu, Wang Zideng and others are clear, and many of them have a deep blood feud with Jiannu. When they discussed the fact that they could only take refuge in Dajin if they did not defeat the official army, they all discussed it secretly, and they did not dare to let the soldiers know, even the subordinate guards did not dare to tell them.
They are just afraid that the army's heart will be shaken, but they don't think too much about traitors and traitors, and they don't have this number in this era.
They have turned their backs on their fathers. But in order to survive, there is no way, even Zu Dashou has been lowered, although he ran back later, but after all, he has lowered Dajin.
Not to mention Li Yongfang, Fan Wencheng, Shi Tingzhu and the like.
"Could it be that Wang Ziden said it?" Kong Youde blurted out, in his mind that Mao Chenglu was here. The father and son of the Li family are in Dengzhou, and there is no one else, only the prince has Deng.
"I don't want people to know unless I do." Zhao Lie shook his head and said in his heart, I only knew about Wang Zideng here, but I am clear about your later gold reduction, so I don't need to ask at all.
"We are also forced to wait, the court forced me to wait for Liaodong to work hard with Jiannu, and the people from all over the country scolded the **** Liao people," Kong Youde's face twitched, "Since we are forced to have no way to live, it is better to give it a go." ”
"It's a last resort," Zhao Lie said disdainfully, "If you have to do it, you can displace millions of people, make hundreds of thousands of people die, and let tens of thousands of women and children die here." ”
Zhao Lie pointed at Kong Youde with his hand, "If you wait, it's the opposite, take the small army to the sea to the Dongjiang River to North Korea to set up their own door, it can be regarded as a last resort, what do the millions of people in Shandong have to do with you, let you wait to drive and torture and kill, how many of them have to do it." ”
"Hmph, it's just ants." Kong Youde doesn't care, he killed a lot of people from Liaodong to Shandong, he really doesn't care, it's just some two-legged sheep.
"Hey," Zhao Lie laughed to himself, arguing with the same beast, it was really funny, "It's too late to pull this ant out." ”
"Zhao Lie, I, Kong Youde, have rarely asked for help, so today I will ask Lord Zhao for a happy wish." Kong Youde has been delayed by others more than once, this is really torture, it is better to have a car cracked, and he will die at once.
"Marshal Du, forgive me, Zhao Lie is also forced to do so." Zhao Lie said with a smile.
Kong Youde opened his mouth to scold and then begged endlessly, just wanting to die quickly.
The guards who came up on either side of him tightened their mouths with rags, tied their hands and feet, and some of them tied a wooden stake to the side.
Zhao Lie was not interested in this scumbag at all, so he ordered to set up camp here tonight, and immediately set up a camp for the wounded to treat the wounded.
Before he could finish settling in, a long and terrible howl came, and Kong Youde began to be tortured.
When Mao Chenglu, who was also seriously injured, was carried over, Kong Youde was already semi-unconscious.
"Brother Kong, wait for a while, and I will come to accompany you immediately." Mao Chenglu has no strength to say.
When Mao Chenglu was carried in front of Zhao Lie, it was not Zhao Lie who spoke first, but Mao Chenglu.
"You are Zhao Lie, well, the soldiers under your command are indeed brave, no wonder you beheaded Jiannu thousand-level." Mao Chenglu looked at Zhao Lie in front of him and the murderous guards around him, and didn't care.
Although he doesn't speak loudly, he doesn't change his big grin.
"Well, I have heard for a long time that you are the first general under Mao Shuai, and today I saw that you really did not change your color." Zhao Lie praised.
Mao Chenglu was deeply injured even if he had an iron armor body, his heart goggles were trampled by the horse's hooves, and his legs were also broken, especially the broken arm almost drained the blood on his body, and now his breath is dying.
But in this way, he did not cry for mercy, and he had no fear.
"Mao Shuai, alas, how good it would be if Mao Shuai was still alive." mentioned Mao Shuai, Mao Chenglu was a little more energetic.
"I heard that you must worship Mao Shuai every festival, which shows that you are a loyal and righteous person." Zhao Lie said with a smile.
"Mao Shuai and I have the grace of acquaintance, I am a pawn, if there is no Mao Shuai to accept as a righteous son, I am afraid that I have already buried my bones in Liaodong, this grace is like reconstruction, this time I can get together with Mao Shuai, it is also a happy thing." Mao Chenglu said with tears in his eyes.
"You Mao Chenglu can also be regarded as a grateful retribution, today Zhao has to kill you, you and so let hundreds of thousands of people suffer, it can also be regarded as your retribution, for the sake of your loyalty, what other last words, Zhao did it for you."
Zhao Lie looked at the sky, loyalty and loyalty, what loyalty and what righteousness were blurred in this era.
"There is still a wife in Dengzhou, don't let them enter the Teaching Division, Mao Chenglu is thanking." For the first time today, Mao Chenglu looked at Zhao Lie with a straight face.
It is normal for the children of Fan officials to be sold into slaves, and it is even more common for women to be assigned to the teaching workshop and become official prostitutes, and this life is ruined, which is the only thing Mao Chenglu cares about.
"Ben agreed, but it's a pity. Let's hit the road. Zhao Lie waved his hand.
"It's nothing, I've been waiting for a long time, but today is enjoyable." Mao Chenglu didn't care.
There was a muffled snort from below, and the guards came to report, and Mao Chenglu was ambushed.
Nan Yong, Lu Houcai and the guards came to the battlefield where the floating corpses were located, rummaging everywhere for Yuan Gang's whereabouts, and finally found Yuan Gang's body next to a horse corpse.
Yuan Gang's face was calm, the spear pierced his heart, and he died almost immediately.
Nan Yong and Lu Houcai sawed off the two ends of the barrel with knives, fearing that Yuan Gang's body would be too alarmed.
Nan Yong and Lu Houcai did not use others to carry Yuan Gang, and the two of them carried Yuan Gang back to the thousand teams together.
When they came to the assembly place of the thousand troops, there were constantly cavalry escorting the captured rebels back.
A rebel walked away scolding, but one of his good knives was snatched away, which was snatched from a guerrilla house in Dengzhou, how could he have dozens of taels of silver.
When he was just captured, he was afraid that he would be cut off his skull, this panic, this will make him feel that there is no danger, he saw that many rebels were brought back, then he would not be killed, otherwise it would be so refreshing to be killed on the spot, as for so time-consuming and laborious.
So the problem of broken mouth came out again, and there were two of his guards next to him to coax.
Nan Yong urged the horse to come to the front with a black face, and with a swing of the knife, the head of the head was different, and the two guards were so frightened that they turned around and ran, and Nan Yong chased after them and slashed them one by one.
When he arrived, some soldiers panicked and made a mess, Lu Houcai hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Nan Yong's reins, and killing prisoners without permission must be subject to military law.
The rest of the soldiers were busy gathering up the other surrendered troops who had blown up the battalion.
In the evening, Zhao Lie received the results of the suppression report.
In this battle, more than 4,870 rebels under Kong Youde and Mao Chenglu were killed, more than 1,800 people were captured, more than 137,000 gold and silver, more than 2,140 war horses, and more than 560 horses.
It can be described as a brilliant result.
The Breakers lost 346 killed, 226 seriously wounded, and more than 800 lightly wounded.
A third of the combat power was lost.
Although Zhao Lie had been prepared in his heart, he still had a pain in his flesh for a long time.
In fact, he can completely block the path of the rebels with a foot formation, and after knocking out the rebels' edge, the cavalry will charge into battle, which will greatly reduce casualties.
But the jade is not cut into a weapon, the cavalry of the broken army must be sharpened, and the more than 7,000 rebel cavalry is a good sparring partner, the combat power is not weak, and it is not as difficult as Jiannu, the practice is just right, of course, they have to pay a certain price, but it is better than paying greater casualties in the future.
