Chapter 132: The First Battle
After making a decision, Wang Zhi returned to the ninth world, at this time, the family team had already buried the body and cleaned up the blood stains in the yard, and was gathering in the middle courtyard to wait for Wang Zhi's next instructions.
Wang Zhi gathered everyone together and announced, "I am going to teach you a very important lesson next, listen carefully. After speaking, he wrote on the blackboard the words "Fight local tyrants and divide the fields".
In the next half a day, Wang Zhi did not talk much about the justice of fighting local tyrants and dividing the land, but only taught the students the process of operation, and by the way, explained the rules and regulations as well as the advantages and harms of doing so.
While Wang Zhi was giving lectures to the students, the villagers of Zhengjiazhuang also ran back to Zhengjiazhuang one after another, and then brought back the news of the five nursing homes and the killing of Zheng Youtian.
Zheng Bo, the owner of Zhengjiazhuang, who was drinking tea in the house, heard the news from the housekeeper, and was so angry that he dropped the tea bowl in his hand: "Who is it?" Who would dare to kill our Zheng family? ”
As the owner of Zhengjiazhuang, everything in Zhengjiazhuang is under Zheng Bo's control, Zheng Youtian summoned the villagers to cheer for him, he naturally knew, but he only knew that the two broken households in the Zhuangzi were killed, so Zheng Youtian wanted to go over and blackmail, he didn't know that Zheng Youtian was blackmailing Wang Zhi, so he let it go, anyway, it was not a big deal, and they also took advantage of it.
But when he heard that the people who went to seek justice were killed by the other party, and killed five of his own guards, Zheng Bo was annoyed, he Zhengjiazhuang was a tyrant in Changhe County, not to mention that there were more than 1,000 tenants in the local fertile land, and there were many children in the court who were officials.
This is a provocation, this is Chiguoguo's provocation, if you don't kill it back, others don't want to think that my Zheng family is weak and can be bullied, everyone wants to come up and step on it.
"According to the tenants who fled back, it was the Sun family's courtyard next to Lijiagou." The butler replied.
"It's them!" Zheng Bo still remembers that this morning the villagers of Lijiagou came to report that the Sun family courtyard was occupied by thieves, it is said that they killed two people, those two people should be the two broken houses in the village, this Liangzi was concluded at the beginning, and it must be done, in order to understand the other party's situation, he said: "Tell me the details of the matter." ”
"According to those tenants, they went to seek justice, and as soon as they entered the door, Zheng Youtian was stabbed to death with a spear by the other party's nursing home, and they scattered in all directions in fright, and then five nursing homes were also stabbed to death by them, and then they did not send anyone to chase the tenants, and the tenants did not suffer any casualties, only the broken house and the five nursing homes died." The steward recounted what he had heard from the tenants who had fled.
Knowing that the other party will not be defeated in a hundred battles, since he has decided to fight with the other party, he has to carefully understand the details of the other party, so he asked: "How many people are there and what kind of weapons are they holding." ”
"According to those tenants, there are only about 20 people, with spears in their hands and sabers at their waists, all of them are half-sized, which is no different from what the people of Lijiagou said this morning." After recalling it, the butler continued: "In addition, according to the tenants, they are led by a monk with short hair. ”
"Monk ......" After pondering for a while, Zheng Bo asked, "Has the news been delivered to the county government this morning?" How did they respond? ”
Zheng Bo wants to pull the government into the water, after all, it is their job to suppress thieves, and it is easy to fall into the hands of others if they do it alone, the Song Dynasty has a strict view of the civil armed forces, and it is much more convenient to pull the official government, and the original private fighting thing is suddenly sublimated to assist the government to suppress the thieves, and no one will talk about the private armed forces under you.
"The family who reported the letter said that the clerk said that he would report to the county magistrate, and then he returned."
"Send someone to urge you again, and let the county order send troops to suppress the thieves as soon as possible." Zheng Bo didn't want to delay it for too long, and if the retaliation was delayed for one more day, their Zheng family's prestige in the local area would drop by one more point.
Zheng Bo was anxious to do something to Wang Zhi to save his own face, and Wang Zhi was also anxious to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots to them, and teach his students a lesson by the way.
Because Lilia had already given psychological hints, the people in the yamen who would automatically ignore everything related to Wang Zhi would basically not respond to Zheng Bo, but the next day, Wang Zhi, who had no scruples, took the family team and Lilia to kill Zhengjiazhuang.
- Wang Zhi's strength is strong in terms of destructive power, not control, so in order to reduce his own casualties, Wang Zhi deliberately brought Lilia with him in this operation, as for the remaining personnel in the other courtyard, they were temporarily evacuated by Wang Zhi to the space-time corridor, and he was very worried that they would be attacked if they were left without protection.
The distance between Wang Zhibeiyuan and Zhengjiazhuang is not far, that is, the distance of forty miles, at this time, the slightly worse infantry army, a day's journey is so much, but this is because the army is carrying a heavy load, and the speed is naturally pulled down. But Wang Zhi and they did not have a burden, only responsible for the march, in order to ensure physical strength, it was the use of running and walking alternate means of forward, it took more than an hour, walked the forty miles, to Zhengjiazhuang outside.
When Wang Zhi and his entourage entered the fields around Zhengjiazhuang, they were discovered by the villagers of Zhengjiazhuang, and when they saw that they were definitely not good people with weapons, they immediately ran back to Zhuangzi to report the news, so when Wang Zhi and his party arrived outside Zhuangzi, the door of Zhuangzhuang was closed, and they looked like they were waiting for battle.
In the feudal era, every time in troubled times or in the border zone, powerful villages have the habit of building enclosures for self-protection, and will also train guards, but this wall is generally called Tuwei because it is mostly made of adobe bricks, and the thickness and height depend on the economic situation of the rich man in the enclosure.
Changhe County is some distance from the border, and the small-scale harassment of the Liao State generally does not affect here, and the Zheng family built an earthen fence just to prevent bandits, so it is less than three meters high, and the thickness is unknown.
In fact, whether the other party's wall is strong or not has little to do with Wang Zhi, because he didn't plan to attack from the beginning, didn't he bring Lilia here, just let her control the people in the village come out and surrender. But before Wang Zhi could speak, the sturdy wooden wall of Zhengjiazhuang opened.
Wang Zhizheng sighed that there was such a mind-reader next to him, and when he couldn't hide anything from her, he suddenly heard Lilia say: "I didn't open the door, they opened it themselves, and there was a group of people inside who were about to rush out." ”
Sure enough, as soon as Lilia's words fell, a group of people rushed out of the earthen fence, led by two horsemen, holding a long green dragon halberd, and the rest were all armed with knives, there were nearly a hundred people, it seemed that they were very confident in their own strength so they did not plan to defend the city, but felt that they could defeat them in the field.
"Lilia, control the two horsemen, let them stop slowly, the infantry behind them don't need to be controlled for the time being, wait for them to get closer."
As soon as Wang Zhi finished thinking about this passage in his mind, he saw that the two fastest horses on the opposite side slowly stopped, and the nursing home behind them was still shouting and rushing forward.
Wang Zhi turned around and looked at the family members behind him, his immature faces were a little timid, after all, the number of the other party was more than three times that of them, and his body was stronger, but he was not afraid to collapse or try to escape, which made Wang Zhi very relieved, after all, this was the first time they had encountered three or four times as many enemies on the battlefield.
"Arrays of guns."
The gun formation that Wang Zhi taught them was not the dense formation of the Spanish phalanx shoulder to shoulder, while the Chinese gun formation was the kind where the first row had a gap, the second row was inserted into the gap of the first row, and so on.
Thirty-two people, the phalanx was soon lined up, Ping held the spear, waited in the first column, and looked at the enemy courtyard that was constantly approaching on the opposite side, that is, nervous and afraid, the hand holding the spear was constantly shaking.
"Don't be nervous, I taught you, in a cold weapon war, like this head-on collision, long weapons have an advantage over short weapons, your spears are longer than their knives, just stab them to death before they get close to you, just train like usual." Wang Zhi loudly cheered up these young men who had just entered the battlefield, but in fact, he didn't think that his subordinates, who had only trained for more than ten days, were opponents of the other party, this time it was just training to let them feel the atmosphere of the battlefield.
"Lilia, be careful, in a moment's battle, if anyone is about to hurt one of our people, take control of him immediately." whispered a word to Lilia, Wang Zhi took out his pistol and waited for it, there will always be a few fools who will want to capture the thief and capture the king first.
Wang Zhi's subordinates were only more than 300 meters away from the Tuwei Gate, and soon, the Zheng family guard was killed, and the first team quickly engaged in short combat.
Fan Qiuming, the captain of the first team, shouted "stabbing attack", and the eight people of the first team stabbed out the spears in their hands in unison, some stabbed and some missed, but the Zheng family nursing home was still moving forward, and the second team stabbed from the gap of the first team, taking away several lives.
At the moment of the engagement, the Zheng family left ten corpses, although because the two leaders of the Zheng family's nursing home (on horseback) were controlled by Lilia, they did not command, but years of experience still allowed them to automatically divide a part of the people to attack the flank of the Jiading team's phalanx, and then the third and fourth teams followed and changed formations to defend both sides.
The two sides immediately strangled fiercely together.
Generally speaking, when both sides are regular troops, it is basically impossible for a phalanx of thirty-two spearmen to block the attack of four times his sword soldiers, but the Jiading team has Lilia as a cheat, which is equivalent to opening invincibility, once the Zheng Jiawu thinks that the attack he takes can attack the people of the Jiading team, the body will be immediately controlled by Lilia and unable to move, and then be stabbed to death by the Jiading team.
So in just over a minute, half of the people in the Zheng family's nursing home died, two-thirds of them were stabbed to death by the Jiading team, and the rest was thinking about capturing the thief and capturing the king first, bypassing the phalanx of the Jiading team to arrest Wang Zhi, but was beaten to death by Gauss's pistol.
Generally speaking, in the field of ancient wars, when one side suffered casualties of two to three percent, the soldiers would collapse, and then they would be frightened and flee, this is the so-called rout, if it is an elite army and the morale is high, it will often be killed or wounded three to four percent before it will be dispersed, if it is a pro-soldier can reach four to five layers, at most it will not exceed fifty percent, of course, provided that the other party's casualty ratio is much less than their own.
And these Zheng family nursing homes are definitely not at the level of elite soldiers, usually if there are two percent of the dead and wounded, they will be defeated, and they are so frightened that they flee, but this time, because the number of opponents is too small, it doesn't look powerful, and everything happened too fast, and when the people who are still alive react, they find that half of the people are dead, and the rest of the people are afraid.
In the outermost courtyard, a person first turned around and ran towards the Tuwei gate, and then triggered a chain effect, everyone began to turn around and run away, and even more directly dropped the weapons in their hands and ran towards the Tuwei gate frantically, this field battle, they lost.
