Chapter 332: The Battle for the Bank
On Nishichu Island, there is a col on the west coast, which is close to the coast. Zhang Ke chose to settle here and set up a tent as a temporary command post.
On the third day of moving to the island, suddenly Du Qing led a person to come in a hurry. After this person saw Zhang Ke, he was far away, rubbed his eyes, ran over, and had a sturdy bear hug with Zhang Ke.
"I said Brother Ke, it's really you, you're too bold!"
The person who came was Qiao Fu, for a long time, he disappeared and was silent, of course, not to fade out of the Yizhou soldiers, but to make other arrangements.
As Zhang Ke's hardcore confidants, the Qiao brothers must help plan the future. Qiao Gui has a simple temperament, has always been in charge of the training of the new army, logistics and military quartermasters, diligent, and does a pretty good job. However, Qiao Fu is a little clever, if he stays by Zhang Ke's side, he can be promoted to deputy chief soldier at best.
Even if he can get the rank of general soldier unusually, he is still a miscellaneous general soldier, which is insignificant. Therefore, Zhang Ke was ruthless and sent him directly to the capital to participate in the martial arts.
This can make Qiao Fu miserable, and the martial arts are mainly tested in two ways, first the strategy, and then the horse step bow and arrow, that is, the real kung fu.
Qiao Fu's kung fu is not bad, and his archery skills are quite good, but only the strategy can stump him, at best, he knows a few words, and he is 108,000 miles away from writing an article.
Zhang Ke asked Deng Wentong to help and invited four gentlemen to tutor Qiao Fu alone. The strategy of martial arts is not as difficult as the Four Books and Five Classics, as long as the literature and science are smooth, especially the handwriting is beautiful, you can understand guò.
Two-thirds of the time Qiao Fu was practicing calligraphy, and he wrote a lot with a brush. He finally understood that a light pen was heavier than a sword.
As the so-called sword edge comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, Qiao Fu participated in the martial arts in the second year of the Apocalypse, and actually won the first place in the examination.
You must know that there is no palace test for martial arts. The first place in the test is Wu Zhuangyuan!
Moreover, when Tianqi heard that Qiao Fu had made military exploits in the past, he personally called the Golden Palace for questioning, and even personally crowned the post of deputy chief soldier.
This is the difference between a military general and a civil official, even if he is admitted to the literary champion, he can only be awarded to the Hanlin from the sixth grade, if you want to be promoted, you can stay up step by step!
As for the generals, if someone appreciates you, within a year or two, you will be promoted to the first rank of the general soldier. Not at all. What's more, Qiao Fu still has great contributions in the past, plus the imperial court is employing people!
After becoming the deputy commander-in-chief, he spent a few months in the Beijing camp, responsible for training soldiers, and the war in Liaodong was tense, and he was sent to Guanwai.
Almost at the same time as Yu Weiliang, Qiao Fu led 3,000 men and horses from Jinzhou and rushed to the battlefield of Changsheng Island in a big ship, and the brothers met. Extra excited!
"Well, listen to me, otherwise how can there be the majesty of the champion!" Zhang Ke patted Qiao Fu's back and smiled.
Qiao Fu's face turned red rarely, and he snorted and said, "It's not my brother-in-law who helps." I found dozens of essays by examiners, and I also drew my views on military affairs. When I arrived at the exam room, my head was empty, and I wrote whatever I memorized. I didn't expect to really win the champion! ”
"Hahaha, this is called a fool with a fool's luck!" Zhang Ke smiled: "Champion Lang, do you have the heart to show your skills?" ”
"Of course!" Qiao Fu patted his chest and said, "I'm here to fight." I didn't expect to be one step slower than Yu Weiliang's guy, hateful, hateful! ”
"Don't worry, Changsheng Island is so big, Yu Weiliang can't swallow it alone, you immediately lead the troops to attack Nanxinkou, cut off the retreat of the Tartars to the land, and catch turtles in an urn!"
Qiao Fulai had studied the map before, and Nanxinkou was only more than three hundred meters away from the nearest part of Changsheng Island, which was the only way to escape from Changsheng Island.
"Brother Ke, you are still so ruthless in using soldiers, but I like it!"
Qiao Fu turned around and ran away, calling the brothers by the river.
"It's still hot, and it doesn't look like a champion!" Zhang Ke shook his head and smiled bitterly.
In fact, Qiao Fu became a martial champion, and the biggest advantage is that he can be transferred to Shandong, Jizhen, or Xuanfu Datong as the chief soldier in the future. A general soldier is nothing, but a general soldier with Zhang Ke's support is completely different!
Once a man has power, he wants to have more, and this is a poison that makes people willingly incurable......
"Kill, don't let go of the Tartars!"
The shouting and killing were earth-shattering, the soldiers rushed wildly, the narrow Changsheng Island was extremely unfavorable to the Tartars, their war horses and cavalry could not be spread at all, and the lack of artillery countermeasures could only be bombarded by the Ming army.
First, there was a cannon fight, which caused the Tartars to run away and scatter in formation, and then the gunners lined up in a neat line, holding the gunners, and shooting unhurriedly.
The neat procession, like a Tarzan, overwhelmed the top of the head and crushed the tartar little by little.
The leader of the Jiannu who was in charge of guarding Changsheng Island was Dartai, who was the brother of Huerhan, one of the five ministers, and fought bravely and won the trust of the old slaves.
Daltai thought that Changsheng Island was on the sea and had peace of mind. Of course, he also knew that the Ming army had a sailor, but for so many years, the sailor of the Ming army had no record. And with Bao Shiqing here, if the Ming army mobilizes the water division, he will also know in advance.
Therefore, Dartai relaxed his vigilance and enjoyed a peaceful life on the island.
After many years of fighting, Dartai is also tired of it, he is like an ordinary little old man, but he has some inexplicable hobbies. After Bao Shiqing secretly inquired, he sent a batch of exquisite amber to Daltai.
In particular, there are two of them with small bugs in them, worms!
Daltai regards it as a treasure, and plays with it every day, looking at the little insects inside, and can see it for two hours.
Rumble!
The cannon rang out, Dartai's hand trembled, and amber fell to the ground. He couldn't care less, grabbed the waist knife on the wall, and rushed outside.
"What's going on?"
"Master Qiqi, the Ming dog is here!"
"What!" Dartai was so angry that he shouted loudly: "What are you waiting for, kill me back!" ”
"Yes!"
Jiannu reluctantly assembled, and as soon as they rushed out of the barracks, they were confronted by the Ming army.
"Shoot!"
A row of lead bullets came over, and the blood on Jiannu's body splattered, and they fell to the ground one after another, and the guns of the Yizhou soldiers continued to improve, and they easily pierced the armor of the Tartar at a distance of sixty or seventy paces.
The shattered tartar lay on the ground, wailing incessantly, and the sound was worse than that of a night owl.
"Damn Nikan, kill, kill them!"
Dozens of white-armored soldiers rushed to the front with thick armor, but their bright armor became the best symbol. The guns of the Ming army were all aimed at them.
"Fire!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The gunshots rang out, and the white armor was shattered, the blood mist was clouded, and the broken limbs were scattered all over the sky, and they fell on the Tartar behind them, making them frightened and soul-shattering.
Seeing that the most elite white armor, in less than a quarter of an hour, was completely submerged in the smoke of gunpowder, the Ming army strode forward, stepping on their corpses, and rushed towards the military camp.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”
The Ming army is like a heavenly soldier descending to earth, unstoppable. Dartai saw it in his eyes, panicked, and the scenes on the bank of the Hunhe River were still echoing in front of him.
"Damn the Ming Army!"
Dartai gritted his teeth, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "You all resist me, don't retreat, violators will be killed!" ”
After the explanation, he ran to the bank.
Immortal Island doesn't matter, but the banks above can hoard more than a million silver, which is the savings of various Baylors, if there is a mistake, the arrogant Baylors can tear him to pieces!
"Quick, follow me!"
Dartai beckoned his cronies and rushed to the door of the bank in one breath, only to see that the gate of the bank compound was closed and tightly defended.
"Go, call Bao Shiqing out!"
"Hahaha, Dartai, your grandfather Bao is here, what advice do you have?" Bao Shiqing stood on the courtyard wall and said with a laugh.
"You!" As soon as Dartai saw his appearance, he understood in his heart.
"Could it be that you colluded with the Ming Dog and betrayed the Great Khan?"
"Wrong! Grandpa Bao has always been a Ming person, and he is suitable to be loyal to you filthy beasts who eat people and don't spit out bones! Your retribution is coming! Brothers, hit me hard! ”
Bao Shiqing swore that he had never been so majestic in his life, and when he gave an order, the firecrackers on both sides seemed to come out of the ground, and they were shot according to Dartai and the others, without mercy at all.
Dartai was also completely insane, and if he lost his silver, he promised to lose his head.
"Warriors, charge me!"
The Tartars faced the fire, swarmed up, and the soldiers in the bank were killed, and people died every moment, Bao Shiqing held the waist knife in one hand, trembling all over, and kept muttering: "Lord Shaobao, Lord Shaobao, save the suffering, come quickly......" (to be continued......)
