Chapter 176: Vulnerable

"The officers and soldiers are coming, don't be afraid, kill all these officers and soldiers."

"Copper walls and iron bones, invulnerable! Kill! ”

"Kill!"

In the midst of the chaos, under the frenzied agitation of a group of backbone members of the Wenxiang Sect, groups of peasants armed with nail rakes, hoes, and even wooden sticks were like chicken blood. Frantic forward, ready to meet the onrushing cavalry.

The Tengxiang Cavalry Division, which was charging, showed amazing discipline at this time. Seeing that the Wenxiang Sect rebel army had organized a certain formation in the front, the Tengxiang Cavalry Division, under the command of Li Wei, quickly divided into two teams, and did not directly attack the Wenxiang Sect rebel army, but used mobility to gallop around the rebel army in order to find loopholes in the Wenxiang Sect rebel army.

These incense-smelling rebels are indeed a group of rabble. However, the frontal impact, once dragged into the quagmire of consumption, will definitely suffer a certain loss.

The Tengxiang Cavalry Division, which was divided into two parts, circled around the Wenxiang Sect's rebellious army, which numbered more than 50,000 people, and the command system was extremely chaotic, just like a chaotic ant colony, and was soon dizzy by the Tengxiang Cavalry Division, and they couldn't take care of each other.

At this moment, the cavalry located on the left flank of the Wenxiang Sect seized the loophole and decisively launched a charge. The neat and uniform cavalry queue was like a bayonet and pierced into the military formation of the rebellious army of the Smelling Fragrance Sect. The command of the Wenxiang Sect's rebellious army was slow and chaotic, and those peasants also had no combat quality, and even if they received orders, it was difficult to carry them out correctly, so that when the Tengxiang Cavalry Division rushed in, the formation of the Wenxiang Sect's rebellious army was still scattered and disorderly, and it was not as tight as the front at all.

In an instant, blood splattered, and the cavalry that entered the crowd was like a killing god, and the spears in their hands stabbed the peasants in front of them to death and flew away. Some cavalrymen were armed with machetes. Under a high-speed charge. All it takes is a swipe. The enemy is already in a different place. For the more violent, tomahawks and maces are used. A stick goes down, and the brain splatters directly.

What invulnerability, on this battlefield, is all nonsense.

The reason why this cult can spread rapidly is that there is actually a secret that is different from normal religions, that is, it cooperates with cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods.

The so-called cow ghost snake god. Taoist terminology called it 'Yin Shen', and Ming literati generally called it 'Earth Ghost'. This is also a special manifestation of China.

The so-called Yin God is those who cultivate the Tao and cultivate Buddha, who have not become immortals and become Buddhas, and the life span of the physical body has ended, but the soul is relatively strong, so they remain in the yang world. To put it bluntly, it's a more powerful ghost. The Yin God cultivated by Taoist priests and monks generally has a relatively high moral quality and will not harm people everywhere. It's after some animals have become sperm. I don't know how to practice, and my body dies. He became a cow ghost and a snake god. This kind of yin god does not understand karma and acts perversely.

The yin gods want to survive in the yang world, and the incense power is their 'food', if they can't get enough spiritual energy, they will gradually die.

In order to obtain the power of incense, these Yin God methods are different.

Generally, they will entrust their dreams to local wealthy businessmen and make some deals. For example, if a wealthy merchant builds a temple for them, they grant the wealthy merchant a desire for some kind of profitability. This is also known as 'money makes the devil grind'. And those yin gods who do not have temples are called earth ghosts. When people do things in the wild, they generally have to worship the ghosts first. In later generations, Hong Kong people will have to start and worship God when making movies, which is actually worshipping ghosts, which is equivalent to paying a 'protection fee'.

If there is a temple of the yin god, the temple will be operated, such as setting up some examples, and then making a name for itself to attract more pilgrims to come and burn incense and make wishes. It's just that the wool comes out of the sheep, and it is obviously impossible for everyone to realize their wishes, but only to set up individual examples. The first pillar incense on the first day of the Lunar New Year will generally be fulfilled, which is equivalent to the 'promotional activities' of the Yin God, thus attracting a large number of pilgrims to burn incense.

Generally speaking, the yin gods in the south are more disciplined, and they will also maintain local order, sometimes punishing evil and promoting good. It's still good for social order.

However, the two regions of North China and Northeast China are the hardest hit areas of the chaos of ghosts, snakes and gods.

The Yin God of North China colluded with the White Lotus Sect and other organizations, and after those gods invited the gods to come up, they played tricks such as being invulnerable and probing the oil pot with their hands, and they could also use all kinds of tricks to deceive the peasants in North China. The worst act was to cause the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Coalition at the end of the Qing Dynasty.

It is equivalent to the belief collected by these White Lotus Sects, and a large part of it is used to 'hire' and worship these bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods.

The reason why the Yin God of the Northeast has also become a disaster is mainly because there are many animals in the Northeast and there are many essences. As a result, there are more cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods. These spirits become cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods after death, and they are not afraid of retribution at all, and they open and close their mouths to say, "I am the Jade Emperor", "I am the Queen Mother", and if they don't give them paper money, they will let the children fall into evil or something. But after all, the Northeast bull ghosts and snake gods are not on the stage, and they will not think about getting involved in politics.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the Yin God of North China began to 'Mo Dao Shiren with one eye and provoke the Yellow River to rebel in the world', intending to use religion to control China, so as to gain a large amount of credibility, just like Catholicism controls Europe.

It's a pity that Zhu Chongba, the anti-bone boy, came out. After defeating the Mongols, the White Lotus Sect was wiped out by Zhu Chongba, or by the Confucian camp, and the Confucian elite naturally could not tolerate these theocratic 'blind streams' riding on their heads to make a fortune, and urinate.

After the White Lotus Sect was suppressed by Zhu Chongba, it could only be Taoguang to raise obscurity, this time seeing the Ming Dynasty defeated in Liaodong one after another, and there were many hungry people in the local area, thinking that the opportunity had come, he couldn't wait to jump out.

These cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods are themselves feminine. As the saying goes, people are afraid of ghosts for three points, and ghosts are afraid of people for seven points. This kind of thing is to bully the old people and children who are weaker in blood, and they dare not approach the young people who are slightly stronger. What's more, it's the army, and the killing spirit of the army is simply the nemesis of those cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods. One by one, the bloody soldiers gathered together, and if they didn't run, they would be scattered by the aura of the army. So much so that these bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods saw the Tengxiang cavalry division rushing from a distance, and ran away.

Between the blood splashes, one after another was hacked to death, and the other peasants were all stunned, didn't they say that they could be invulnerable? For the first time, they felt that death was so close to them, that Jinge Iron Horse, so cruel and merciless. Suddenly there was panic and crying, and some farmers were already scared to the ground, and some were even scared to urinate**.

More of them turn around and run, and then don't run and wait for the knife?

They just believe in their mothers, and they only believe that they can get benefits and go to the west to the sky. But he was never ready to pay for this, so he was naturally vulnerable.

The Tengxiang cavalry division quickly dispersed the rebels on the left and right, and then drove these fleeing rebels like a duck, causing a greater impact on the Wenxiang Sect's rebel army.

The scene soon became chaotic, and the Tengxiang cavalry division rushed left and right, and those parishioners also ran around in panic. Pushing and stampeding were staged one after another.

On the other side, Levi led another part of the cavalry and launched an attack from the rear of the Wenxiang Sect rebel army. The military formation of the Wenxiang Sect was not called a military formation at all, it was as fragile as paper, and it was broken with a slight stab. Just casually rushed and killed, and wherever they went, those parishioners also immediately scattered and retreated.

Anyway, no one wanted to go up and face the official army, which quickly turned this battle into a 'game' like hide and seek.

So much so that the cavalry of the Tengxiang Cavalry Division didn't need to be slashed at all.

Even if it is 50,000 pigs, put there and cut them for you, 3,000 people will have to be cut to exhaustion. However, the truth is that it is far easier to deal with the 50,000 Smelling Fragrance Sect army than to cut down 50,000 pigs. Because there is no need to cut at all, just drive these parishioners to disperse more enemy units like ducks.

The combat mode of Wenxiangjiao is simple and rude, that is, it is simply a fight for many people. The command is rotten, but there are still some well-equipped 'elites'. However, it is a pity that these 'elites' have not yet confronted the Tengxiang Cavalry Division, and they have been scattered by the chaotic friendly forces first.

The entire army formation was simply turned upside down, and many people died not at the hands of the cavalry of the Tengxiang Cavalry Division, but under the trampling and slashing of friendly troops.

Soon a great rout was formed, and the fleeing parishioners could not care so much. Is there anyone on the ground? Didn't see it! Directly step on it. There was someone in front of him blocking the way to escape, and he was in a hurry and went directly with a hoe and a nail rake, and he couldn't do anything if he was in a hurry. The people in the back began to poke the chrysanthemums, and the ones in front had no choice but to poke the chrysanthemums in front.

Under the trampling and brutal killing, the 50,000 army of the Wenxiang Sect was simply crushed and out of control. The Tengxiang cavalry division ran behind very easily, and slashed at the people who stood in the way, just maintain the deterrent force.

The combat units of the entire Tengxiang Cavalry Division were soon dispersed, and began to drive the defeated Wenxiangjiao army to the north in a platoon with a team of 30 people, and under the command of Li Wei, they consciously drove the defeated Wenxiangjiao army to the north.

To the north is the 01 Infantry Division led by Zhou Chaohai, the 01 Infantry Division rushed to Shandong, each soldier was equipped with horses to travel, although the Ming army lacked war horses, but there was no shortage of horses.

The 01st Infantry Division was still on the march, and the division commander Zhou Chaohai suddenly received a report from the scouts that a large number of routs had been discovered ten miles away.

"A large number of routs? Did you read that right? Zhou Chaohai asked in disbelief, this is simply like a pie in the sky!

"Report to the division commander, it is indeed a large number of defeated troops, all over the mountains, and I can't count how many there are." The Scout replied solemnly.

At this moment, another scout rushed back and reported that he saw the Tengxiang cavalry division chasing after him, and Zhou Chaohai suddenly realized.

"Immediately line up and surround the rout." Zhou Chaohai immediately ordered. (To be continued......)
