Long Qian returned to the mountain, first went to the headquarters of the Guangming Temple, the staff group Lan Xinzhi happened to go out, saw Long Qian at a glance, and said in surprise, "The commander is back__"

"I'm back. Pretty good in the mountains, right? ”

"You don't know what to do, do you? We've got a fight! Lan Xinzhi turned around and shouted, "Come on, everyone, the commander is back." ”

Zhou Yi, Ning Shijun, Deng Qinghua and others came out one after another. On the other side was where the logistics team was located, and Song Jinguo and others also came out, and for a while, they were all greeting Long Qian's voices.

"What's going on? With whom did you fight? Long Qian asked anxiously.

"Ha Luha, commander, don't worry, we have a big victory!" Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Lu San Mazi wants to take the opportunity to take advantage of us, let us do it for him." More than a hundred captives were captured! ”

"Tell me, what's going on?" Long Qian asked urgently.

Here's the thing, there has always been a ringing horse south of Mengyin, the leader's surname is Lu, nicknamed Lu San Mazi, the number is not large, it is estimated that there are two hundred people. Sun Deming solicited several times, but Lu San Mazi did not respond. At the beginning of the year, Cao Kun's brigade entered Mengshan and frightened Lu San Mazi's men and horses. Lu San Mazi's men and horses wandered outside for months and returned to the nest again, and when they heard that Sun Dewang and the others were all finished, they wanted to occupy the precipitous Mengshan Mountain. After several inquiries, I heard that there were still a few people in Mengshanzhai on the mountain, and Lu San Mazi was confident that there were many people, so he made up his mind to come to the black and eat the black. But their movement of men and horses was discovered by Chi Chunxian's cavalry, and the news came back in time. Because Long Qian's whereabouts could not be found, several leaders on the mountain held a meeting under the auspices of Zhou Yi to study countermeasures, the staff group played a big role, with the support of the cavalry intelligence, formulated a detailed battle plan, the four companies that left the national pillar to stick to Mengshan, the main force quietly moved to the ambush outside the mountain, Lu San Mazi's men and horses went up the mountain from the east road, trapped in Wuzhang Song, and could not advance, more than a dozen people died, and the wounded were at least twice as many as those killed. Lu San Mazi saw that Mengshan Cottage was not easy to gnaw, so he withdrew his troops in desperation, a group of bandits scolded and scolded and carried the wounded number to the southeast of Mengyin, and in the valley where Sun Dewang had been ambushed, he encountered the severe blow of the ambush soldiers who had been waiting for a long time, and the four companies opened fierce fire from the mountains on both sides, and Lu San Mazi's team was suddenly in chaos. Xu Gongzhi's sharpshooter team shot off the horse in the first round of accurate shooting, several ringing horse leaders on horseback, including the big leader Lu San Mazi, who was shot in the head, struggled for a moment and died, and when the ambush soldiers were killed under Zhou Yi's order, the bandits crowded on the valley road immediately collapsed.

The entire battle lasted only a quarter of an hour, and none of Lu San Mazi's troops escaped the net, eliminating those who were killed, capturing more than 140 people alive, surrendering more than 60 guns, more than 2,000 bullets, and a large number of cold weapons.

In the whole battle, the Mengshan army lost five people killed and twelve wounded, of which three were seriously wounded. Including the casualties of the four companies of the Feng Guozhu in the five zhang pine attack.

Compared with the results achieved, the casualties paid are really insignificant.

"Well played." Long Qian exclaimed, "Deputy Commander Zhou is a wise man, he suffered a loss over there, and now he has taken Lu San Mazi to get it back." Good, very good. What about the captives? ”

"It's all locked up in Dongzhai, and most of them have to join the gang, I think you have to come back to settle this matter." Zhou Yi smiled and said, "This group of people has nothing to do, they eat for nothing, Lao Song has complained to me many times, and the food is tight." ”

"Yes, welcome. Most of these captives must have been born in hardship, similar to the predecessors of our Mengshan Army, and if they are trained, they are good soldiers. Long Qian smiled, "Han Xin leads the troops, the more the merrier, how can there be more soldiers?" However, this time no new company will be formed, and when this operation is over, those who are willing to join will be assigned to the official company. The companies must wear off their soldiers! Don't smoke like anything. ”

"Ah, the commander is ready to go down the mountain to fight." Zhou Yi said happily.

The whole mountain was holding back its strength to go down the mountain to fight, but Long Qian would rather practice for another three months before acting. However, the conditions are no longer permitted.

"Yes, the target is already wary of us, and besides, there is not much food on the mountain."

"This time, I copied Lu San's nest, but I found some food, not much."

Long Qian had already guessed the result, Xiangma was a thief, if he had money and food in his hand, his desire to go out of the mountains and plunder would be much weaker, and Lu San Mazi dared to go to Mengshan to find his bad luck, which meant that their life was not easy.

"The seized weapons were all rationed to the Fifth Company." Zhou Yi said.

"Yes, yes. Tell me, is there any shortcoming in this battle? Long Qian turned his gaze to the five company commanders and a few people from the staff group. When Wang Mingyuan and the others heard that Long Qian was back, they all ran over.

Wang Mingyuan scratched his head, "This, we really discussed it together, this battle, everything went well, almost all of them were carried out on time and the process they designed." Especially the first, second, third, and fifth five companies, especially the fifth company, which was not established for a long time, went around the mountain, and was ambushed for more than a day, no one violated the military order, and Lu San Mazi did not find more than 200 people to lie in ambush under his nose until he died, and rested in the original, which is really unimaginable! ”

"Well, that's worth affirming." Long Qian nodded. I thought to myself, after rigorous cohort training, the increase in discipline was expected. However, Lu Shan's five consecutive companies are worthy of praise. Well, Zhou Yi left the fourth company of Feng Guozhu to stick to the old camp in Mengshan, which is very appropriate.

"If you want to say that it is insufficient, the first is that our people are still poor at shooting guns. Thanks to the prestige of Xu Gong's sharpshooter team, Lu San Mazi was killed in the first round, otherwise more people would have died if he rushed down. The second is that the rhythm of the charge is inconsistent, the first company has already entered the crowd, and the third company is still on the hillside, not that the third company is slow, but the terrain is limited, we ignore this. Get the opinion of Elder Feng Lian. Ning Shijun said with a smile.

"Yes, we rushed down, and they took all the captives." Feng Lun snorted.

"In addition, Lu Shan's five consecutive fights were good, they broke Lu San Mazi's soldiers with a waist, and the action was very fierce." Zhou Yi added.

"Yes, you have to be good at summarizing. After every battle, you have to take stock of it, especially the mistakes. Mistakes are experience, no one dares to say that they will not lose the battle, and sometimes the defeat is more meaningful than the victory. Long Qian smiled, "This shows that the staff team and the reconnaissance team have not done their work in detail." ”

"Yes, we'll pay attention in the future." Ning Shijun humbly accepted criticism.

"Did you violate military orders?"

"Basically, only," Zhou Yi said here and stopped again.

"Say, don't hide it."

"Someone in the fifth company picked up a prisoner who laid down his arms."

"It's not going to work. Military regulations clearly stipulate that it is not allowed to torture and kill prisoners, how to deal with this matter? Long Qian's eyes were fixed on Lu Shan.

"Confinement for a day." Lu Shan said weakly.

"What do the military regulations say?"

"Forty sticks were beaten until they were shot. Commander, this decision was sanctioned by a court-martial! Lu Shan shouted.

"Oh? Cao Minzhong: Do they agree to deal with it like this? ”

"Yes."

"Commander, the matter was indeed reported to the military court court, Cao Minzhong and the other three agreed that the battle was not over at that time, and the situation encountered by the soldier of the fifth company could not be applied to simply killing prisoners of war, and the soldiers were easily excited on the battlefield, especially on the battlefield where the white blades intersected." Zhou Yi explained.

"Very well, since I have passed through the Judge Advocate General's Office, I have no right to overturn its decision." Long Qian's eyes were kind, "Lu Shan, I want you to figure out a truth." In the future, most of the soldiers of our Mengshan Army will come from opponents. Now we don't have a suitable base area, and even if we do, we can't capture all the people into the army, right? Who will farm the land and who will work? Therefore, it is necessary to observe the discipline of the captives and strive to convert the captives. Hey, your fifth company is a captive company, isn't it our soldier now? ”

"Yes, he has been shut up according to the regulations. At that time, the battlefield was very chaotic, and the murderous intent was together, and some of them could not be controlled. ”

"You are the company commander, you have to control the entire company, you can't just make excuses! Courage and discipline must be praised and publicly praised. In this battle, each company selected three officers and soldiers who fought bravely, and at least two of them were ordinary soldiers, who were recorded for their combat exploits. Rewards are cashed out semi-annually. How to award and what to award, wait for us to add it up. ”

"Commander, if we digest Lu San Mazi's group of people, there will be almost a hundred and ten people in each of our companies." Zhou Yi forked the topic.

"Well, the troops are definitely going to be fleshed out. The old units must be strengthened and maintained at full strength at all times. The battlefield has been completely cleaned, right? Did you throw anything away? Long Qian didn't want to pursue this matter anymore, and the act of killing prisoners would be difficult to completely eradicate in the future. But Long Qian believes that there is a truth, as the master of an army, he must get the principles right, and he will start to deviate from himself, and he is doomed to be a mess below.

"No, they have all been carefully cleaned, including Lu San Mazi's lair, and they have all been suppressed by us, and nothing has been left behind. This time, more than 20 war horses were captured, and there were not many people in Lu San Mazi, but there were good horses. By the way, Commander, you and Jiang Yun have been gone for more than a few days, and the goal has been confirmed, right? Did you buy the horses you rode back? It was Song Jinguo who answered.

"Ah, Marco is not easy to buy. I can't buy it even if I have money. It was sent by a friend. I will inform you of the situation outside the mountain at the meeting. Deputy Commander Zhou, has the team slackened because of the victory? ”

"It's fine. Everything is normal, I look forward to the commander's return. As soon as the commander returns, we can go out of the mountain. Zhou Yi laughed.

Everyone was holding their breath to kill out, and when they heard Zhou Yi's words, they all pricked up their ears.

"That's right. This time, Jiang Yun and I went out of the city for ten days, just to confirm whether the goal of Zhengjiazhuang is worth fighting. I saw it on the spot, and it was worth it! The information provided by the two tigers is accurate, we not only have to open Zhengjiazhuang, but also fight Bai Wei and Chen Jiaya together! Long Qian looked at his backbones one by one with blazing eyes, "However, how to fight, we have to study it carefully." Discuss first, I'll go see the wounded. ”
