Chapter 147: The Wind Blows the Red Flag and the Land Turns Three

Chapter 147 Wind Blowing Red Flag Earth Flip (3)

【147】Wind Blowing Red Flag Earth Flip (3)

In the early morning of autumn, it was dark, and Yao Fan's whole army was holding torches and wearing steel helmets, winding westward like a fire dragon in the wilderness.

The 7o liters of individual camouflage carrying gear carried by the soldiers behind them were stuffed with bulging bags, and sleeping bags were tied to them, and considering that they had to fight continuously, each person's carrying gear weighed 25 kilograms, in addition to sufficient bullets and grenades, there were also a total weight of 15 kilograms of rice and two kilograms of salty sauce and meat. Taking into account the weight of the guns, helmets, and ammunition carriers on the waist, the individual soldier carries almost 4o kilograms.

When the troops came out of Jimo, they brought 30 carts, which were pulled by horses, and now they have been divided into 20 carts for the four battalions and four companies to pull grain back to Jimo, leaving only ten carts, which are loaded with four mortars and shells from the first artillery company, as well as a large number of machine guns and ammunition.

In the mist over the field, the torches gradually went out, and at this time, the white of the fish's belly appeared on the horizon, and the earth gradually revealed its outline.

The whole army continued to advance along the village road built with yellow mud, and finally arrived at the Yifengdian ferry just after eleven o'clock in the afternoon.

Xie Jiaxiang, a sentry of the White Horse Club, and another man from the White Horse Club, led the horses and had been waiting outside the ferry for a long time.

"Chairman Yao, the water here is waist-deep, the current is not fast, the river is only 20 feet, but you can directly wade through the water, and the carts and horses can be transported by ferry."

Xie Jiaxiang now has five teams of men and horses, plus he is 1o person, responsible for exploring the way for Yao Fan's troops and reporting the enemy situation. His eyes were sunken and he looked a little tired, and his companion named Lei Zi had not been heard from since he was captured by the Qing cavalry.

"How many ferries are there?"

"Back to Chairman Yao's words, there are two ferries here, as well as five boats and four fishing boats, and those five boats are the property of Changtai Bank in the town."

Yao Fan simply ordered Li Hainiu beside him: "The whole army enters the town, buys grain and meat to make rice immediately, and at the same time requisitions all ferries, boats, and fishing boats, and gives them as much money as they should subsidize, don't be stingy." ”

"Yes!"

So Yao Fan's whole army rested in the town of Yifengdian, lined up along the main road, and did not commit any offense with Minqiu.

After a while, Li Hainiu led a thin old man in an ochre-colored robe to run over, and said to Yao Fan excitedly: "Chairman, this is the shopkeeper of Changtai Bank, he has something to say." ”

When the thin old man saw Yao Fan, he was about to kneel down in a hurry, and after being helped up by Yao Fan, he said: "The little old man is willing to help, but I beg the king to spare the people of the town." ”

Yao Fan said embarrassedly: "Our revolutionary army is not a bandit, what are you panicking about?" I don't want you to help, you hurry up and cook rice and stew for my whole army, and kill a few pigs in your town, and we will calculate the amount of money for you. ”

Yao Fan was too lazy to talk nonsense, waved his hand at Li Hainiu, and motioned for him to solve the remaining problems.

Although the road is not far, Yao Fan is not Chapter 147 The Wind Blows the Red Flag and the Earth Turns (3)

I plan to eat the food I brought with me, and the rations in each soldier's backpack are used for picnic emergencies, because food is the best policy for the enemy.

The town of Yifengdian, which has only more than 300 households, began to get busy, killing pigs, cooking, and looking very lively.

Yao Fan ordered Xie Jiaxiang to cross the river first to reconnoitre, Xie Jiaxiang was a little disappointed when he saw that Yao Fan did not leave him for lunch, so he could only cross the river with his companions with the dry food in the bag.

It was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon after the whole army finished eating, and Yao Fan did not wait for a rest, but directly ordered the whole army to wade across the river, and the horses and carts to cross the river in boats.

At dusk, Yao Fan's entire army arrived at Renzhao Town, which was only 5o miles away from the capital city of Pingdu Prefecture.

And the Qing army in Pingdu Prefecture was already mentally nervous to the extreme, as if a button was about to fall off the vest.

Just the day before yesterday, the Eight Banners Cavalry, who had collapsed and fled after being beaten by the People's Liberation Army, had already informed the commander of the Yong Battalion in Pingdu, and Wang Zhengqi, who was also the general of the thieves this time.

"The musket of the green-haired rubber thief is fierce, three hundred steps away, and the middle one dies immediately!" So said the Mongolian cavalrymen with the yellow banner and the yellow banner who fled back to Pingdu to report the news.

But the self-esteem of the Mongolian men made it impossible for them to say, "Even if there are thousands of Mongolian warriors who ride and shoot unparalleled, none of them can rush into the glue thief formation!" "That's the case.

Wang Zhengqi was very helpless, if these cavalry were his subordinates or other brave battalion soldiers in Shandong, Wang Zhengqi would definitely give them a charge of shaking the morale of the army, but these guys are all from the Qingzhou Eight Banners garrison battalion, these guys only listen to the orders of the emperor and the emperor's spokesman Ding Baozhen in Shandong, and even if Ding Baozhen is present in person, he cannot punish these theoretical emperor's direct troops without authorization.

"After those glue thieves win, will they continue to attack Jiaoxi County?"

"No, after the glue thief wins, he will return to Jimo."

Wang Zhengqi then asked for a long time, and the Mongols' answer was always simply death, and Hengzhu said two clues: "One is that the battle was not won, and the other is that the casualties were heavy and almost all the troops were wiped out." ”

"Let's go down." Wang Zhengqi held back his anger for a long time, and in the end he could only do this.

When the Mongol cavalry who had reported the news had left, Wang Zheng slammed the case and scolded in the court: "What muskets are fierce! Obviously, these Mongolian army banner soldiers were ambushed by a large group of rubber thieves when they plundered the township! I don't know the abacus in their stomachs yet? One by one, they are counting on the counterinsurgency! Where will take the initiative to engage the enemy! ”

Wang Zhengqi's subordinate generals persuaded: "The general is angry, and it is expected that the arrogant soldiers of the Eight Banners will advance lightly, but this is also good, it is precisely the victory of the glue thieves in this battle, so that it can be seen that our army has the credit of exterminating the gang of glue thieves in the future." ”

Wang Zhengqi's face softened slightly: "It stands to reason that I shouldn't say anything, but since they are working for the royal family, how can they be so light on the enemy?" It's really a shame for the emperor. Besides, if that gang of rubber thieves is really strong, they will definitely take advantage of the victory to pursue and attack Jiaoxi, but since they have retreated, it shows that they are outside Chapter 147 The Red Flag and the Earth Flip (3)

There is also a shortage of guns, and there are not many people. ”

"The general is wise." The general praised.

"In this battle, the Mongolian Zhenghuang Banner captured a rubber thief to explore the horse, named Zhang Tianlei, sent back to Jiaoxi for interrogation, and confessed that they were the horse bandits of the White Horse Club, the White Horse Club has always robbed the merchants in the Weixian area, but now somehow, it actually hooked up with the gang of rubber thieves, according to the confession of the Tan Ma, the bandit Yao Fan only had five battalions of soldiers and horses, and all of them were Western rifles."

Wang Zhengqi said: "These anti-thieves have always breathed out of one nostril, and it is normal to hook up. Can you tell me where the White Horse Club's lair is? ”

"This Zhang Tianlei said that the place is called Stone Village, deep in the mountains, extremely remote."

Wang Zhengqi snorted coldly: "Hmph, wait until the rubber thieves are exterminated, and they will be cleaned up sooner or later!" ”

But just this morning, the news came from the fast horse of the Laixi military post that Jiangshan County had been broken, the whereabouts of the chief military officer of Dengzhou were unknown, the four green battalions were all wiped out, and only one of the soldiers who had escaped from the city rushed back to Laixi like crazy to report the news, and Laixi sent a stagecoach to report to Pingdu overnight.

Wang Zhengqi was taken aback when he heard the news, he was used to fighting, and he knew very well how strong the county town guarded by 2,000 soldiers was, even if the green battalion was put on Nanshan, after standing at the head of the city with 2,000 people, this city would not be said to be impregnable, at least 50,000 or 60,000 peasant troops would gnaw on it for ten days and half a month. What's more, there is also the Dengzhou Chief Military Officer personally escorting the battle!

But that Yao Fan actually took down the city with five battalions, according to the letter, early in the morning before dawn, then Yao Fan attacked the city, and took the whole city before noon, what is this strange thing?

Wang Zhengqi has never seen ** bag, and there is no ** bag in the world these years. Black powder cannot burn quickly before it is granulated, and after a black powder package is ignited, it is not so much like an explosion as it is like a firework that snorts from the ignition to the outward flames. Unless you put a detonator in him and detonate it, it might be better. However, the detonators of these years were too sensitive and explosive, 10,000 times more dangerous than the safety detonators of later generations, and they were only used for blasting in large mines in Europe, and the armies of any country did not dare to carry this kind of thing that would blow up and blow up at the slightest touch.

Wang Zhengqi has never seen the ** bag, and the soldier who escaped has never seen it.

Wang Zhengqi was surprised to hold the letter and pondered for a long time, looking for clues from almost half of the words describing Yao Fan's appearance on the letter. However, the main part of the letter is all about a strong man who is nine feet nine feet nine inches tall and tower-like, with a head as big as a drum, a thick waist, arms longer than the knees, and a waist circumference of eight feet.

Wang Zhengqi read it three times to make sure that he didn't miss a word, but he still couldn't see Yao Fan's way to break the city. But he knew very well that Yao Fan was by no means the kind of breed that looked like a wild boar, a yak, an ape, and a demon Dao. Joke! If Yao Fan looks like that, how can he deceive the entire officialdom of Jinan Mansion! What a shrewd character Ding Junmen is, and Chapter 147 The Wind Blows the Red Flag and the Earth (3)

His way......

After thinking about it, Wang Zhengqi was very sure that Yao Fan must have sent Nei Ying to sneak into the city first, and after taking the gate of Jiangshan County at night, he put in the main force of the rebels at dawn.

But Wang Zhengqi still didn't figure out how Yao Fan could still ambush outside Jiaoxi County the day before yesterday, and almost slaughtered more than 1,000 Mongolian cavalry with excellent cavalry and shooting, and yesterday he was able to flow to Jiangshan County and quickly capture the city. This kind of continuous combat is really out of the imagination of a feudal army general. It's very simple, Wang Zhengqi can't do it himself.

"Doesn't he need to rest at all? Or has he already ripped up a lot of rebels in a short period of time? ”

Wang Zheng had a headache until it was nearly dusk in the afternoon, and he finally stopped having a headache.

The detectives scattered in the towns around Pingdu, a group of rebels with green hair and blue clothes, dressed like rumored rubber thieves, have arrived in the northwest of Renzhao Town.

Wang Zhengqi's head exploded directly!

The god of soldiers is right, but after all, the soldiers are still a group of Qiu Ba, is there a Qiu Ba who runs so fast in the world? If you run away, you can say something else, but after fighting all the way, are the grass and ash hills under Yao Fan's anti-thief beaten with iron!??

Wang Zhengqi doesn't believe it!

"Probe!" Wang Zheng slammed the table hard.
