Chapter 50: Soldiers Descend on the City
After the previous fierce battle, the casualties in the cottage are also increasing, coupled with the consumption of the body, the strength of the counterattack is not as strong as before, and the sparse arrow rain cannot produce lethality to the four-headed war elephant that protects the vital point, and the four-headed behemoth broke through to the front.
The four war elephants rushed forward with their thick thighs, and the fence wall was destroyed by their mighty force, and the officers and soldiers followed closely behind the war elephants, shouting and rushing into the cottage. Standing on a high place and commanding, Geduo had already ordered the old and young women and children to hide in the inner village, and as soon as they saw that the wall of the village had been breached, they immediately called in to withdraw their troops and led the soldiers to retreat to the inner village.
When almost all of Zhang Yi's soldiers and horses rushed into the cottage and started a hand-to-hand battle with the Geduo Lao Department, the flags were suddenly waved in the distance, shouting and shouting, and the two Miao soldiers roared and jumped, like a group of monkeys in heat, pounced over, blocking the back road of Zhang Yi's soldiers and horses.
After learning that Governor Zhang was going to expel them by force, Geduo had already reported the situation to the temple as soon as possible, but the result of repeated discussions among the six elders was that they would not be supported. They were not very positive about Ye Xiaotian's entry into the officialdom and the tribe's exit from the mountain, and if they failed to go out of the mountain, they would just use this to oppose the exit.
However, under the oppression of the environment, the instinct to survive will make people's wisdom continue to develop. After failing to request assistance from the temple, the Geldoro finally thought of using his personal connections to ask for help from other tribes that had always been friendly with him, and the two chiefs of the tribes who were close to the Geldoro tribe decided to send troops to help.
The two tribes each sent five hundred warriors, who were arranged by the Geduo in the dense forest cols on both sides of the cottage, and now at the critical moment, they played an important role, and at the critical moment when Zhang Yi threw himself into the reserve army, they suddenly appeared in the rear of the officers and soldiers.
The soldiers and horses of the Zhang family are unknown, and it is difficult to determine the number of opponents in the game, but they are ambushed by Shengmiao, and these two new forces are fierce and fierce. The combat strength was extraordinary, and the officers and men were in great confusion. Seeing this, the Geduo Lao, who was retreating to the inner village, took the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
The people of Shengmiao Mountain should cooperate with each other inside and outside, and Zhang Yi's soldiers and horses had no intention of fighting, and the battle situation took a sharp turn for the worse. Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhang Yi hurriedly gathered his troops to break through and flee down the mountain. By the time they fled back to their camp and re-counted the soldiers and horses, the number of wounded, maimed, and captured was more than 1,500.
Under the First World War, the number of casualties reached less than one-third, which was already a fiasco, although Zhang Yi still had 35,600 people in his hands, and the seedlings on the mountain were only 2,000 even with reinforcements. Excluding the casualties in this battle, there were only fifteen or six hundred men, and they still had an absolute numerical advantage, but in terms of morale, they were extremely low.
People with high civilization always feel that ignorant and backward people are more barbaric, and in the era of cold weapons, the more powerful the individual combat effectiveness of the off-road barbarians is, coupled with the rumors of false rumors because they do not understand, the combat effectiveness of the people in the mountains is even more artificially exaggerated.
In this case, the battle was lost. Zhang Yi's soldiers and horses had no intention of fighting, Zhang Yi patrolled the barracks, and saw that the soldiers were listless and depressed, and he knew that this battle could not be fought again. Moreover, the Zhang family of Tixi Division took the lead, and the loss was the greatest, and he had no intention of fighting, even if he was willing to fight again. I was afraid that the Zhang family in Tixi would also oppose it, but Zhang Yi had no choice but to retreat in a hurry.
After the news was transmitted back to Tongren. For Zhang Fatzi, it is no less than a slap in the face. He originally wanted to win a big victory and show off the strength of the Zhang family to the Tongren toasts, but he didn't want to lose so miserably. If he wanted to fight again, he would have to transfer more troops from Tongren, but at this time, he received news that the Yu family and the Dai family had gathered troops and horses to Tongren Mansion.
Although Zhang Fatzi always believed that it was impossible for the Yu family to forcibly seize the dominance of their Zhang family by force, the Yu family and the Dai family's gathering of troops and horses to Tongren Mansion was an extremely dangerous signal, and he could not ignore the safety of his clan because of his own judgment.
Moreover, Tixi was defeated in the first battle, no one can guarantee that since Shengmiao has reinforcements, will there be a steady stream of reinforcements to continue to arrive, if the Zhang family's family is all consumed in Tixi, then it is not equivalent to the family to make a move, and he, the prefect of the light pole, can only give way.
In view of this, Zhang Fatzi retreated. But he had vowed to severely punish Shan Miao, but now that he had suffered a fiasco, the Tusi faction from all walks of life had already learned the news in Tongren's eyes, and if he endured this evil breath, the prestige he had left would be gone.
It is not appropriate to continue to increase troops, and it is not appropriate to stop the drums, and Zhang Fatzi, who is almost cured, is angry and anxious, and he is really bedridden. However, this time, he had a fig leaf: he was too sick to serve, and of course he could not react to the fiasco of Tixi in time.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Northwest of Tongren, Sinan County. Sinan is on the edge of Tongren, the "mother-in-law" is in front of him, the county is naturally hard, the head of a county is right, it is difficult to be a hundred miles supreme. In addition, there is another big family in Sinan County, which can also suppress the county order, and that is the Tian family.
This Tian clan is not the Bitian clan, and it is not the Tian clan among the four heavenly kings of An Song Tian Yang. The Sinan Tian clan of the Tusi family entered Guizhou from Lantian in Shaanxi Province in the second year of the opening of the Sui Dynasty, and this Tian clan was transferred from Ji'an, Jiangxi to Guizhou in the early Ming Dynasty.
Although this Sinan Tian clan is far less majestic than the other Tian clan of the hereditary Tusi, it is also regarded as a number of official eunuchs in the local area. The current head of the family, Tian Ziwei, once served as the chief secretary of Dazhu County, Sichuan, and his three sons were all lifted, and the eldest Tian Zhuguo was serving as the magistrate of Wuzhi County, Henan; The second son, Tian Gongguo, is serving as the governor of Henan Guide, and only the third son, Tian Xiaoguo, serves under his father's knees.
If you count it up, Tian Ziwei's father, ancestor, great-grandfather, and high ancestor have also been judges, teachings, and officials, especially his uncle and grandfather Tian Qiu, who was once an official to Sichuan as an envoy and a political envoy in Guangdong, and he is a very popular minister.
With such a prominent family background, in Sinan County, even the county magistrate has to respect him for seven points and give three points of courtesy, which is the first squire of Sinan, there should be nothing difficult to make this old man Tian who returns to his hometown and teases his grandson annoyed, but at this time, Master Tian Weitian looked entangled like a toothache.
"Father, Zhang Yu's two families are fighting, and it has nothing to do with our Tian family, so why should my father bother."
Seeing his father twisting his beard one by one, he was about to pull off the sparse beard under his chin, and he couldn't help but sigh with relief.
Tian Ziwei glared at him and reprimanded: "Don't you hear the truth that the fire at the city gate has affected the fish in the pond?" Now that the Yu family and the Dai family are in Sinan County, in case of a war, how can our Tian family not be implicated? ”
Tian Xiaoguo saw that his father's boss was displeased, so he had to speak only and didn't dare to speak.
Tian Ziwei twisted his beard and groaned for a long time, and said: "The Yu family and the Dai family soldiers are in the city, and the Zhang family's rattan armor army is also looking at each other, but one party refuses to give in, and the war will start." My Tianfu is close at hand, once there is a war, it is inevitable that the pond fish will end, and the only way to avoid it is the best policy! ”
Tian Ziwei had made up his mind, turned to Tian Ziwei and said: "You go, immediately prepare the vehicle, relatives and children, and go to Phoenix City with the old man to escape the summer. ”
The ancient city of Phoenix now belongs to Xiangxi, but it used to be under the management of the Sizhou Pacification Division, because it is very close to Sinan, the scenery is very beautiful, and it does not belong to Guizhou administratively, it is an excellent place to escape the war, so Mr. Tian chose here.
Tian Xiaoguo hurriedly agreed, and retreated with a smoke. Tian Ziwei walked to the porch, looked into the distance, and said to himself: "If you want to fight, I will throw it to you here, the old man will not accompany you!" ”
In Sinan County, in the place where the Yu family was stationed in the army, the two people of the Yu family who led the soldiers sent away the Dai family's earthen house and returned to the house. These two houses are Yu Junting's own uncles, one is called Yu Puman, and the other is called Yu Jiahai.
After the two sat down, Yu Jiahai said stupidly: "The little girl knows how to mess around, for a useless pusher, she will use our Yu family's disciples, and let our old bones run here to sell their lives, I really don't know what she thinks." ”
Yu Puman poured himself a cup of herbal tea, and while sipping, he said slowly: "This little girl is not as simple as you and I imagined, for so many years, our brother has given her many problems, when did she really stump her?" ”
The previous Yu Tusi had no son, only such a daughter, so she inherited the throne. In this regard, Yu Junting's three uncles were quite unconvinced. They don't have the courage to usurp their niece's country, but they instinctively look down on women and don't want to be controlled by a woman.
Therefore, since Yu Junting succeeded to the throne, they have constantly given her problems and made things difficult, if Yu Junting is not able to deal with it, the family's affairs will have to rely on them in the future, in that case, although they are not toasts, they can influence toasts, and they can be regarded as uncrowned kings.
Unexpectedly, this little girl is a very powerful character, and she can solve the problems they set up quietly, especially the last time Yu Junting came to Zhang Zhifu's beautiful "forced palace", which greatly increased the ambition of the Yu family, and they dare not underestimate this niece who has not yet reached her twenties.
Now only the third Yu Jiahai has a reckless temperament, and he still puts the score of the elders in front of Junting at every turn, and a calm-minded person like Yu Puman no longer dares to be arrogant and arrogant in front of his niece Tusi.
Like this time, Yu Junting didn't discuss with a few uncles, so he made such a heavy decision, ordering the two uncles to lead troops into Sinan, in exchange for a few years ago, they would definitely not obey their fate, and they would only act until Junting gave a reasonable explanation, but this time although they felt that Yu Junting was too rash, they still obeyed their fate.
Yu Jiahai said dissatisfiedly: "I said the third child, the second child has already been coaxed, do you want to coax it too?" Since this girl became a toast at the age of nine, our brothers have been constantly fighting wits with her, which is good, but when you are old, you have to bow to her? ”
Yu Puman said indifferently: "Since Fat Zhang was deflated, this girl's prestige has become more and more popular, and we can't suppress her a little." If she makes a mistake this time, we have a chance to win back a game, otherwise she succeeds, and we won't be able to do it in the future! This is an opportunity for her, and an opportunity for us, just wait and see! ”
