Chapter 777: Blitzkrieg (7)

Half an hour later, the battle was over, in the eyes of Liu Zeqing and Li Yan and others, this was a complete victory, this was a blitzkrieg, in the face of tens of thousands of rogues, the Zheng family army soldiers fought hard to chase and kill, and mastered the initiative from beginning to end, what is even more commendable is that until the end of the battle, the Zheng family army itself had almost no casualties, from the time point of view, within half an hour, it was the successful end of the battle, such a victory was the first time they saw, and it was also the first time they experienced.

The heavy snow is still falling, I haven't seen such a big snow for many years, the snowflakes in the sky have wrapped all the blood, and many corpses on the ground have been covered by snowflakes unconsciously, and the white expanse between heaven and earth has slowly recovered, but the blood stains on the ground have penetrated the snowflakes, and the red color looks shocking.

However, the battle has just begun, Zhang Xianzhong's 150,000 rogues, the battle loss is not more than 10,000 people, its main force is still around the city of Kuizhou, and the battle that won a complete victory is 20,000 Zheng Jiajun soldiers facing more than 10,000 rogues, the number of people occupies an absolute advantage, and it is an attack launched under the situation of being caught off guard, so the victory of this battle can not represent that the battle behind is particularly smooth.

However, after this battle, Liu Zeqing, Li Yan and others, including all the soldiers of the Zheng family, had full confidence, and they firmly believed that under the leadership of Zheng Xunrui, they would be able to completely exterminate Zhang Xianzhong and his subordinates.

Coming to Zheng Xunrui's side again, Liu Zeqing and Li Yan had a look of reverence in their eyes.

Zheng Xunrui didn't notice this, he was already deep in thought.

The officers and men of the artillery battalion and the Shenji battalion led by Zheng Jinhong would not be able to arrive at the position at least noon to launch a large-scale attack on the dock controlled by Zhang Xianzhong. The attack of the Zheng Jiajun was particularly unfavorable, most of the Liukou branch was in the direction of Qingyang Mansion, some of the Liukou branch was at the dock, and some of the Liukou were waiting in the city of Kuizhou Mansion. If that really happens, the battle will likely turn into a pursuit or a tug-of-war.

Zhang Xianzhong once fought in Kuizhou, and was familiar with the terrain here, once he made the choice to enter the mountains, it was impossible for the Zheng family army to completely exterminate the Liukou in a short time.

The key to winning the battle is to defeat the top people of the rogue, that is, to capture the thief and capture the king, as long as Zhang Xianzhong can be captured alive or killed. Then the latter problem is well solved.

If you want to complete this task, it is easier said than done, you must trap Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Wenxiu in the capital city of Kuizhou, so that they will not be able to leave for a short time.

When the battle was still going on, Wang Xiaoer led the elite scouts to the direction of Kuizhou Mansion to investigate, and some scouts were ambushed in the direction of Kuizhou Mansion to prevent rogues from leaking the net to report the news.

The battle ended quickly, only half an hour. This bought Zheng Jiajun valuable time.

Zheng Xunrui, who was thinking, was waiting for news from Wang Xiaoer.

When the sound of horses' hooves came. Zheng Xunrui's face finally showed a look.

Soon, Wang Xiaoer came, his body was covered with snowflakes, and he didn't have time to brush it off.

"Dashuai, there is no movement in the Liukou in the city of Kuizhou for the time being, and there is no movement in the Liukou at the dock. The Liukou in the direction of Shunqing Mansion is still in the process of investigation, whether Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Wenxiu are in the city of Kuizhou Prefecture, and their subordinates have not detected it for the time being, because of the climate. The subordinate didn't catch the tongue......"

Zheng Xunrui nodded slightly, such a situation was expected by him, in such bad weather, the rogues would not patrol far away, and the rogues patrolling outside the city of Kuizhou could not be alarmed.

After Wang Xiaoer's report was completed, Zheng Xunrui had already made up his mind.

"Liu Zeqing, Li Yan, spend a quarter of an hour cleaning the battlefield, the army set off quickly, besiege the city of Kuizhou, 20,000 soldiers are divided into two roads, of which 5,000 people are responsible for besieging the city of Kuizhou, the purpose is to let the Liukou defend the city of Kuizhou, and the remaining 15,000 soldiers are responsible for resisting the possible reinforcements, according to my judgment, the Liukou in the direction of Shunqing Mansion will definitely come to reinforce, and the Liukou in the direction of the dock will not move for the time being, after the artillery battalion and the Shenji battalion led by Zheng Jinhong carry out the attack, these Liukou will withdraw in the direction of Kuizhou Fucheng."

"The wharf is fifteen miles away from the capital city of Kuizhou, and the Liukou in the direction of Shunqing Mansion is about seventeen miles away from the capital city, it takes time for them to rush to the aid of the capital city of Kuizhou, and the soldiers have plenty of time to prepare, and there are not many cavalry in the Liukou, but they are the focus of our attack, and in the process of cleaning up the battlefield, all the soldiers are required to check the Mauser guns to ensure that the firearms can be used smoothly."

"More than 3,000 rogues captured alive, send 1,000 soldiers to escort them, anyone who dares to resist and kill will not be forgiven, if there is a large-scale riot, then kill them all, Hong Xinyu is responsible for this matter."

"Whether Zhang Xianzhong is in Kuizhou Capital City, we don't know, but we don't have time to delay, you go and prepare immediately, set off in a quarter of an hour, and attack Kuizhou Capital City......"

Li Yan cooperated with Liu Zeqing, sent the wounded soldiers to the women's barracks, bandaged the wounds, and rested on the spot if the injuries were serious, Zheng Xunrui had already mobilized some of the soldiers from the pro-military camp to wait for the prisoners, but both of them could see that Zheng Xunrui was very dissatisfied with the captured prisoners, thinking about it, there was a bigger fight behind, but at this time the army had more than 3,000 prisoners.

There are not many things left by the Liukou, those weapons Zheng Jiajun soldiers don't need at all, but they can't be left behind, they must be confiscated, otherwise others get these weapons, and they may rebel again, as for the flags and other things, all of them are gathered, and when the time comes, they will be burned by fire, and there will not be much food seized, and it will not take much time to clean up.

The most troublesome thing is the corpse, but there is no time to clean it up at this time, according to the past practice, it is most appropriate for the captives to clean up the corpse, but it is not possible to do this at present, it will consume a lot of time, and secondly, I don't know if there will be any accidents in the process of cleaning the corpse.

According to Zheng Xunrui's arrangement, Liu Zeqing personally led nearly 15,000 soldiers to resist the rogues who came to help, and it should be paid special attention to whether these rogues who rushed to help were led by Zhang Xianzhong, after all, there were too many people, Su Congjin led nearly 5,000 soldiers to besiege Kuizhou Fucheng, and Li Yan assisted Su Congjin.

In the process of cleaning up the battlefield, the personnel arrangement was quickly completed.

To resist the rogues who came to help, they still had 4,000 cavalry as the main force, and they could not only defend with the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, but also kill them when necessary, while the rest of the soldiers formed a formation on the spot.

If Zheng Xunrui hadn't made such an arrangement, if it weren't for the complete victory in the previous battle, Liu Zeqing, Li Yan and others would not have made such an arrangement, you must know that 20,000 people are facing 140,000 rogues, and the soldiers of the Zheng family army put themselves in the most disadvantageous position: outside the capital of Kuizhou.

The branch of the Liukou has put the soldiers of the Zheng family army in an extremely dangerous situation, tens of thousands of Liukou in the west, tens of thousands of Liukou in the north, and tens of thousands of Liukou in the capital of Kuizhou, and the Liukou on three sides will attack at the same time, then the Zheng Jiajun will be in a desperate situation.

I'm afraid that no one dares to make such an arrangement, and only Zheng Xunrui dares to do so.

Although there has been a complete victory, Liu Zeqing, Li Yan and Su Congjin and others are still very cautious, they strongly asked Zheng Xunrui to be stationed on the spot, not to Kuizhou City, when Zheng Xunrui insisted on being with the soldiers, Liu Zeqing said very clearly that if the marshal is in the army, the soldiers have concerns in their hearts, and they must think about protecting the marshal, and it is impossible to devote themselves to the battle.

Zheng Xunrui, who has always been decisive, actually followed Liu Zeqing's advice, and left the soldiers of the pro-military camp and the female military battalion, as well as a thousand soldiers guarding the prisoners, stationed in the camp of the liukou.

For the sake of safety, Liu Zeqing even left some of his personal soldiers around him and waited on the periphery, asking these personal soldiers to absolutely guarantee the safety of the marshal.

From this point of view, the battle that is about to start must be extremely cruel.

When setting off, Liu Zeqing, Li Yan and Su Congjin and others looked very serious, the so-called dangerous moves, Zheng Jiajun has never faced such a dangerous situation, the purpose of this battle is to completely annihilate Zhang Xianzhong and his subordinates, if it is according to the ordinary deployment, it is impossible to achieve the goal in a short time, since it is a dangerous move, then you need to be careful step by step, not the slightest negligence, a small mistake, may lead to unpredictable consequences.

Along the way, Liu Zeqing discussed with Li Yan and the others in a low voice, completely ignoring the snowflakes that were still falling.

The direction of Zheng Jiajun's attack this time is the south gate of Kuizhou City, which is also the main gate of Kuizhou City, and it is also the key place of the Liukou, the purpose of Zheng's army is not to attack the city, but to surround the Kuizhou City, the West Gate, the North Gate and the East Gate, and someone also needs to be vigilant to prevent the Liukou from escaping from these places, or coming out to fight.

The time difference is what Zheng Xunrui emphasized, from the hour to the afternoon, two hours of time, only nearly 20,000 soldiers of the Zheng family army participated in the battle, the artillery battalion and the Shenji battalion led by Zheng Jinhong were also involved in the battle at noon at the earliest.

All the details, Liu Zeqing and others must be considered, and they must make good arrangements, although Zheng Xunrui has made comprehensive arrangements, but Liu Zeqing and others need to implement them to the letter.

The scout reported that it was only two miles away from the capital city of Kuizhou, and when there was already a patrol in front of him, Liu Zeqing spoke to Li Yan, Su Congjin and the others.

"Guys, we're fighting." (To be continued.) )
