Yu Zilian's resolute and resolute methods made Yang Wenyue, who had been watching, amazed. At this time, Yang Wenyue also understood that Yu Zilian's reputation was worthy of his reputation, and he also praised that he did have the means to govern the army.

However, these methods are not available to other officials and do not want to learn. In addition to Yu Zilian's extremely high prestige in the army, which made it difficult for the soldiers to rebel, his approach was to offend the entire officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, and also set up countless targets for the officials in the future. Therefore, Yu Zilian is completely betting on tomorrow today. Therefore, Yang Wenyue, who was watching from the sidelines, was just admiring.

However, praise is admiration, and when it is time to fight with reason, Yang Wenyue will not let go. When discussing the next move, Yu Zilian and Yang Wenyue had a heated dispute.

Yu Zilian's opinion is: Anyway, a big victory has been obtained, so then accept it when it is good. Yu Zilian wanted to withdraw his troops, but still maintained a guerrilla on the periphery of the peasant army.

For Yu Zilian, the purpose of this dispatch has actually been achieved. The victory gave the recruits confidence; The way in which the army was governed allowed the recruits to develop discipline. As long as he wins a few more battles with such a small victory, Yu Zilian is confident that he will cultivate the Black Cloud Army like the original Ruzhou Army, so that the soldiers will worship him and have a fanatical state of fighting. As for whether the siege can really be lifted and the city can be opened? Yu Zilian means that you can do your best, and there is no need to force it.

Yu Zilian will not be arrogant. Although his gambling nature is heavy, he will never think that his current Black Cloud Army has the strength to challenge the Li and Luo coalition forces.

But Yang Wenyue hoped to take advantage of the victory to pursue. He believed that it was necessary to closely pursue the defeated and fleeing peasant army, strive to defeat the Li and Luo coalition forces like a snowball, and at least open up the road to Kaifeng City.

To be honest: Yang Wenyue really doesn't know much about military affairs, and he has a serious underestimation of the strength of the Li and Luo coalition forces. However, this cannot be blamed on Yang Wenyue, a layman. Because the victory of the Ming army over the peasant army has been waiting for many years, that is, the battle of beheading hundreds and defeating thousands of peasant armies, and reporting to the imperial court is a great victory. So Yang Wenyue was carried away by the victory.

But Yang Wenyue's choice was also a helpless move. Because the crime of defeat he committed in Zhuxian Town was too great. If he can't break the siege and open the seal, Yang Wenyue will not be able to offset his merits at all. Therefore, the difference in starting point has also caused the two managers to have different actions on the next step.

But just when the quarrel was over, a reinforcement came to converge and upset the balance.

To be more accurate, this is not a support army, but a people's strong army with nearly 200 people. However, the leader of this people's strong armed force is famous, he is the chief staff of Lu Xiangsheng, the former secretary of the military department and the chief staff of Lu Xiangsheng, who supervised the soldiers and horses of the world-Counselor Yang Tinglin.

After failing to move the rescue troops to the Gao Qiqian army that year, Yang Tinglin rushed to the battlefield with several of his entourages in order to do his duty, wanting to live and die with Lu Xiangsheng. However, Dolgon did not obey Yang Tinglin's wishes. When Yang Tinglin arrived at the battlefield. The Qing army had retreated to pursue and kill Gao Qiqian's army, and what was left for Yang Tinglin was the corpses of the soldiers of the Tianxiong Army all over the ground. After that, Yang Tinglin was doing some things like burying the corpse, escorting Lu Xiangsheng's coffin back to his hometown, and so on.

After that, because he did not give in to Yang Sichang's degrading and insulting. Yang Tinglin also resigned and returned to his hometown in Qingjiang. However, by this time, his reputation for being familiar with military affairs and having a noble character had spread throughout Unai. And indeed. As Lu Xiangsheng's chief staff. Yang Tinglin will not be a military novice, and his willingness to live and die with Lu Xiangsheng also proves that his character is enough to be called first-class.

After that, Yang Tinglin stayed at home, and he refused the court's conscription several times. Perhaps Yang Tinglin was saddened by Lu Xiangsheng's death and was a little discouraged by the court; Maybe he wants to raise hope, anyway, Yang Tinglin did not return to the Ming officialdom. It's just that sometimes I travel the world to find relatives and friends.

And when Kaifeng City is besieged, the officials in the city will definitely go to the Beizhili government on the other side of the Yellow River for help. But now let the Beizhili government send reinforcements, they will definitely be powerless. But that doesn't stop officials from sitting down and discussing. And at such a "retreat". Yang Tinglin, who happened to travel here, was also invited.

Facts have proved that Yang Tinglin's blood was not cold at this time. When he learned that Kaifeng was in danger, he volunteered to recruit troops, wanting to strengthen the strength of the official army reinforcements by joining the army on his own initiative.

And the location of the Tianxiong Army was in the Daimyo's Mansion, so Yang Tinglin easily recruited some veterans of the Tianxiong Army. So in this way, Yang Tinglin, who crossed the Yellow River, encountered the combined forces of the Black Cloud Army and Yang Wenyue. And the arrival of Yang Tinglin made it natural for him to join the decision-making group of the coalition army.

The original Yu Zilian and Yang Wenyue, in terms of official positions, Yu Zilian is slightly higher; But in terms of qualifications, Yang Wenyue is far exceeded. So these two can be said to be on a par. But as soon as Yang Tinglin joined, the balance of the day immediately tilted.

Yang Tinglin's meaning is very simple, that is, to continue to move forward and break the siege and Kaifeng. Otherwise, Yang Tinglin has eaten a lot of blood? Yang Tinglin inherited the bloody style of the Tianxiong Army founded by Lu Xiangsheng, and his proposition was to be bloody and bloody, and to completely defeat the Li and Luo coalition forces with uninterrupted attacks and uninterrupted hand-to-hand combat.

To be honest, a few years of leisure at home have already detached Yang Tinglin from the actual situation. He didn't know what to say: The current Li and Luo coalition army is no longer the peasant army that the Tianxiong army dealt with a few years ago. However, Yang Tinglin is not the first official to make such a misjudgment, and he will not be the last.

And Yang Tinglin's words carry a lot of weight. Although he is no longer an official, no one in the world dares not to regard him as an official. Coupled with his fame, in fact, the weight of his words is no less than that of Yu Zilian and Yang Wenyue.

In addition, the chief soldier Hu Dawei and others are also Lu Xiangsheng's original subordinates, and they are also willing to listen to Yang Tinglin's words, so Yu Zilian's opinion was suppressed, and he could only continue to attack with him.

The initial offensive was still quite smooth, and without the peasant army's partial division, there was actually a large gap in the encirclement. After defeating several small peasant armies one after another, the Heiyun Army and Yang Wenyue's troops smoothly advanced to the area of Pingcheng Township.

And at this time, the big cabinet that finally couldn't hide it had to report to Li Zicheng. As soon as he heard that an official army suddenly appeared on his east side, and that the place was also empty in defense, Li Zicheng was shocked, and immediately ordered Yuan Zongdi to lead 10,000 horses to plug this gap first.

After Yuan Zongdi arrived, he first incorporated the nearly 10,000 remnants of the big cabinet, and then launched a battle with the Yu and Yang coalition forces. However, the results of the battle were still defeats one after another, after all, Yuan Zongdi hurriedly led only a temporarily assembled army, among which the soldiers and horses of the old battalion were quite few. If it weren't for the fact that the combat performance of the Black Cloud Army was quite rusty, and Yang Wenyue's troops were also shrinking, maybe Yuan Zongdi would suffer another fiasco.

Fortunately, after losing three or four thousand men and horses, Yuan Zongdi finally withstood it, and he finally waited for the support of the six thousand old eight cavalry led by He Shaoqi. And as soon as He Shaoqi arrived, he immediately took over the command of the peasant army.

At this moment, Yu Zilian once again proposed to retreat overnight, but was rejected by Yang Wenyue and Yang Tinglin. They believed that the retreat of the army at night could easily turn into a rout. Moreover, the phenomenon of night blindness among the officers and soldiers is also very serious, and even if the retreat is successful, the losses of the officers and soldiers will be very heavy.

Therefore, Yang Wenyue and Yang Tinglin proposed: In tomorrow's battle with the peasant army, they should first repel the Heshao Banner Division, and then retreat calmly. And this decision made this officer and army lose the last opportunity to retreat.

And in the battle of the next day, the cavalry that broke into the camp was powerful. This is an era when cavalry is king, and when the cavalry group begins to charge into battle, it is a kind of posture that is either you die or I live. Therefore, the two armies faced each other, relying on the courage of the soldiers on both sides.

However, when the cavalry that broke into the camp began to charge, the soldiers of Yang Wenyue's division took the lead in fleeing. Anyway, they have already escaped once in Zhuxian Town, and there is no shame in escaping again. But in this way, it suddenly caused a great chaos in the formation of the official army.

Yu Zilian was unlucky to meet a pig teammate. As soon as he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately restrained his troops, formed a tight group, and fought and retreated backwards.

In this battle, on the contrary, the Black Cloud Army, which was dominated by new recruits, performed remarkably, and under Yu Zilian's example, the Black Cloud Army carried out several counter-charges, killing and wounding a large number of peasant troops, so that they did not dare to force too much. Moreover, Yu Zilian's training of the Black Cloud Army day and night to arrange the formation also had an effect, although the cavalry that broke into the camp was circling around the Black Cloud Army, but they still didn't find a place to speak. In addition, the cavalry of the peasant army had to pursue and kill Yang Wenyue's troops, so it caused a shortage of troops to attack the Black Cloud Army, and finally let the Black Cloud Army withdraw from the battlefield smoothly.

After that, it was a battle in which the officers and soldiers fled and the peasant army pursued. After two days of retreat, when the Black Cloud Army retreated to Yangqi Town, they found that the peasant armies around them had already surrounded them. So Yu Zilian ordered to camp on the spot and build fortifications relying on the town's buildings to resist the encirclement and annihilation of the peasant army. And Yu Zilian also sent a fast horse to Runing to ask for help, hoping that Wu Shigong would save him from fire and water again.

And Yang Wenyue's department collapsed into two large pieces. A group of more than 4,000 people fled into Lankao County with Yang Wenyue and Hu Dawei. Another force of nearly 2,000, together with Yu Zilian's Black Cloud Army, fled to Yangqi Town and suffered from it.

More than 8,000 people from Tian Jianxiu's division of the peasant army, 3,000 cavalry from Li Guo's department, and more than 7,000 people from Liu Tichun's department gradually arrived, and together with He Shaoqi, they surrounded these two official armies again. (To be continued......)
