Chapter 459: Set the Sleeve
There is an empty town called Liuzhi Temple Town in the north of Dezhou City, named after an ancient temple, the original name is not examinable, now it is called Taishan Palace or Old Grandma Temple, but now it has become the palace of the first army general of the Ming Army!
Although the town is close to Texas, it belongs to the jurisdiction of Jingzhou, which is so capricious, and the jurisdiction is directly planned to a few miles outside the city of Texas, which is comparable to the coastline of the Celestial Empire in later generations to the door of the Philippines.
The whole town has long been empty, and now it has become the garrison of the Ming army, in this small town there are nearly 50,000 officers and soldiers, which is quite crowded and lively, but every soldier is not in the mood to fight, a few days ago and the Qing army is like a dark cloud pressing on the head and lingering!
Morale is low, the generals naturally have to cheer up, the person in charge of each military camp takes turns to go into battle to encourage his subordinates, what is the day before yesterday, the first battle, beheaded five thousand Tartars, countless disabled, what Qing dog cavalry is fierce, it is not a fall of water that we beat...... Naturally, the soldiers did not hear the most real things, and they didn't need to know them, they just had to regain their confidence!
And in the ancient temple hall, the generals of the First Army led by Zheng Hong gathered here, buried their heads in smoking, they naturally knew the truth of the first battle the day before yesterday, the Qing army's courage and good fighting were vivid, and the pressure on their hearts was no worse than those soldiers, and even inferior to those soldiers, because they had no one to boost their morale at the moment!
Because it was lightly armed, Zheng Hong and his men and horses were stationed here, and nearly 50,000 people were stationed here, and all the sundries such as food, drink, and accommodation were handed over to the guards in Dezhou City, which means that those thousands of men and horses are now reduced to logistics to serve the First Army, and they dare not have any complaints, to put it mildly, Zheng Hong is to let the Lord Zhizhou in Dezhou City personally come to cook The other party has to come over honestly, without him, because his master Lu Wang is now powerful. The emperor's holy decree governs Gyeonggi, and any local government in Shandong and Hebei must assist him in dispatching troops to fight this war of extermination, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!
Of course, Zheng Hong can't do this kind of thing, it's not that he doesn't want to, he doesn't dare, otherwise Lu Wang can peel off a layer of skin on him, and even Xie Xinghua can beat him crying dad and calling his mother, how ruthless the methods of the military justice department of the Ming Army are, many people have already tried it!
"Everyone, don't pretend to be deaf. Uncle Huang has already passed the word, and nearly 10,000 people and horses in the Qing army have already driven towards this side, who will take the lead? After smoking three cigarettes in succession, Zheng Hong couldn't help but open his mouth!
However, the atmosphere has been depressed, and everyone present just glanced at him with their eyes, and then continued to bow their heads silently and smoke, and no one wanted to take the lead!
"Look at you cowards, if Master Hou is here, I will kill you", seeing that his little friend was so weak, Zheng Hong couldn't help but scold!
"I'll go!" Just then, a voice rang out. "My Tang Ziying is willing to take the lead!" It turned out to be Zhu Yujian!
"Rest, you", Zheng Hong rolled his eyes, and sure enough, the others were also smiling, including a hint of disdain. This deeply stimulated Zhu Yujian, and he stood up, "What do you mean, look down on my Tang Ziying!" ”
"Lao Zhu. It's not that I look down on your Tang Ziying, it's that you are obviously not good now, and it's okay to fight the thief army. To be honest, your Tang Battalion is only suitable for helping to set fires and fight, and you can't intervene for the time being", Li Qingshan's words caused everyone to laugh, everyone knows that Li Qingshan is talking about the battle of the Huanhe River the day before yesterday, and the Tang Battalion is responsible for setting fires, and they have to put out the fire in the end!
"Yes, my old Zhu has little qualifications, and he is not as good as your achievements, but at this time, I dare to fight in the Tang Battalion, since you are all so awesome, why are you so cowardly now, you have the ability to stand up and take the lead with me!" Zhu Yujian was obviously aroused by anger and looked at everyone defiantly!
Sure enough, these words stung everyone present, and one of them began to show unkindness in their eyes, led by Gao Jie, "I don't have many horses in the high camp, and my combat power is not strong, but there are many people, and there is a little bit of fear of death!" Lao Zhu, I'll accompany you! ”
"And me!" Zuo Mengeng also stood up, "I'm willing to take the lead with the two generals!" ”
"Okay, awesome, there's a kind!" Zheng Hong smiled, and swept his eyes towards the corner of the lobby, "Xu Wuhou, Lao Zhu is out of the house, why didn't you Xu Ziying move!" ”
Xu Wuhou was smoking, he smiled when he heard this, glanced at Yang Yizhan next to him, and then at Zhu Yujian, "There are enough people who take the lead, not worse than my thousands, and to be honest, I'm afraid of death, my eldest brother often says that the gun shoots the first bird, let me keep a low profile, you all know that I have always listened to my eldest brother!" ”
"Damn! You shameless person, you are afraid of death, you can still say such a high-sounding sound, Lao Tzu can be regarded as convinced of you", Li Qingshan couldn't help but scold!
"You can do it!" Xu Wuhou's ruffian look instantly angered Li Qingshan, and he couldn't help but want to cut him, but he just looked at Yang Yizhan who had already stood up next to him, and he controlled his temper again, "Wait", he pointed at Yang Yizhan again, "And you, when the devil comes back, you will feel good!" ”
"Don't pretend to be forced, the devil is something you can do", Xu Wuhou laughed mercilessly, "If you have the ability, you can call the Tang Lord and put up with you!" ”
"I'm x, if it's not for the Hou Ye to spoil you, you're a p! Lao Tzu tortured you to death in minutes! Li Qingshan was completely enraged, and scolded and threw himself at Xu Wuhou, but was stopped by Ai Shuangshuang and Tian Jianxiu, "Head Li is angry, don't give a child general knowledge!" ”
"Is it enough?" Zheng Hong shouted, and pointed at Xu Wuhou casually: "You little thing, shut up, now that Master Hou is not in the First Army, I have the final say, no matter how much I don't stop my mouth, I will beat you with a military stick at any time, even Yang Yizhan can't save you, believe it or not!" ”
Xu Wuhou wanted to say something, but was pulled by Yang Yizhan, gritted his teeth and snorted coldly and sat down silently!
After seeing that he had suppressed the scene, Zheng Hong snorted coldly, walked to the fire and took a map from his own soldiers, which was the map between Texas and Jingzhou!
"Don't look at it, we have already seen it clearly along the way, a flat river, no danger to defend, except for a few woods is a wilderness and lonely village, the only river is next to it, although there are nine bends and eighteen bends, but unfortunately it is a north-south direction, it is not used, even if the east-west river is frozen, it is dispensable, and it is impossible to ambush!" Li Qingshan said!
Zheng Hong glanced up at him when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth twitched. "Li Qingshan, I found out that after you and the Qing army fought twice, the whole person really became cowardly! What's wrong with Pingchuan, what's wrong with no danger to defend, don't forget that we are here with nearly 50,000 horses, and the Qing army is only about 10,000 people, we just can't beat people even if we resist five or one, no wonder Hou Ye keeps scolding us for not beating people and not daring to fight! Arouse! ”
If this was said by others, or at other times, Li Qingshan would have to fight if he was punished, but he didn't lose his temper at the moment. Instead, he took out a cigarette and lit it on the fire, slowly put it in his mouth and took a puff: "It's not cowardice!" It's unwilling! It's a kind of hatred, hating yourself, it's obviously the same person, but you still can't beat others if you give up your life, that's a kind of unwillingness! Hou Ye once told me that this is a gap, a gap in the accumulation of actual combat experience and training, so I am unwilling. If you give me a year or two, I guarantee that my subordinates will take down the Ming man in the slightest! ”
The atmosphere was a little low, Zheng Hong sighed and began to ease the atmosphere, "It's useless to talk about it." Now where did it come from for a year or two, Jingzhou is only forty miles away from here, and the cavalry of the Qing army is fast, but it can be reached in the afternoon. Now look at our arrangement of only two hours at most, you are still dreaming of your year or two! ”
Li Qingshan smiled bitterly twice, "It's just a little whining." Now you are the boss of the First Army, you are in charge, how we fight! ”
"No matter how we fight this battle, we will win, I have 50,000 horses, I have an eye in the sky, and I still have clairvoyance and clairvoyance in my hand, and I can move at any time, if I can't win this battle, I might as well be killed by a headlong crash!" Zheng Hong was full of pride
"That's it! It's not that we can't beat it, it's just that we don't dare to fight, so many people are afraid of him begging! Zhu Yujian was infected by Zheng Hong's arrogance, and shouted loudly, giving him a few pairs of white eyes in return!
"Qinggou is arrogant, I really think that I am invincible in the field, I still think that the Ming army is all soft eggs and run away when they see it, and they dare to come and stir up trouble with only 10,000 horses, I guarantee that Abatai will regret his decision tonight!" Zheng Hong said as he spread out the map on the ground to study!
"I heard Uncle Huang say that the Qing army came this time to do bait in addition to exploring the truth and truth, and you want to break us apart, right?" He Renlong, who had been silent, opened his mouth at this time!
"It doesn't matter what his purpose is, since he has made bait, he must be prepared to be eaten," Zheng Hong said as he swiped his fingers back and forth on the map, half loudly, and stood up, "Gao Jie listens to the order!" You are the vanguard of the high battalion, facing the enemy head-on! ”
Gao Jie clenched his fists: "Captain Zheng really hurts me!" ”
"That's it! Who told you to like **", Gao Jie shook his head with a wry smile!
"Zuo Mengeng, there is a jujube forest five miles west of the town, and your left camp is secretly ambushing to listen to the order and be responsible for the flank attack!" Zheng Hong continued to give orders, and Zuo Menggeng immediately walked out of the main hall and began to dispatch troops
"Xu Wuhou, Lao Zhu, there is a grass puddle on the river bank three miles east of the town, and the two of you ambush here, listen to the order to attack the side!"
"Third regiment, fourth regiment, your two divisions immediately go north to the north, go around to ambush troops five miles away, and wait until the Qing army is over to block it, and listen to the order to be responsible for interception!" After Zheng Hong finished speaking, he turned to look at Li Qingshan, "Do you know what my first group is doing with your second group?" ”
Li Qingshan smiled: "Where to go!" ”
As soon as the military order was issued, the generals began to quickly dispatch troops to their designated destinations, and Zheng Hong also began to arrange for aerial cameras to take off to reconnoiter the movements of the Qing army, and use walkie-talkies to communicate the latest news with the generals at any time!
Gao Jie's men and horses after the battle the day before yesterday, the original more than 20,000 people became nearly 20,000, although the number of people and horses is twice as much as the Qing army, but he knows very well in his heart, in terms of real strength, he can't hold a cigarette, if it is not for the strict military law of the Ming army, it may even collapse at the touch of a button! After all, the overall military quality of his men and horses is still some distance higher than the four regiments under Lu Wang!
Although Gao Jie knew that he would fight very hard this time, and even be defeated, he still tried to be beautiful even if he was defeated, and he was teaching his subordinates at the moment, "I don't have high requirements, you only need to resist a cigarette, and bring the Qinggou into the circle to support the ambush on both sides is victory!" One thing you should remember for me is that whoever does not give me the order to retreat will be a dead end! Heaven and earth, I Gaojie let him die! ”
"Subordinates obey the order, and those who retreat die!" Seeing that more than a dozen of his subordinates shouted in unison, Gao Jie nodded slightly, and the ruthlessness on his face gradually disappeared a lot!
"Gao Jie, how far can your artillery hit?" As soon as the lecture ended, Zheng Hong came to him to chat!
"Two miles of land is no problem!" Gao Jie was slightly stunned, "Why do you want to use a cannon?" ”
"Nonsense, don't wait for it to sprout, you can shoot at least three shots in two miles!" Zheng Hong said angrily!
"If you fire the cannon before the enemy charges, it should be no problem to shoot five cannons", Gao Jie thought for a moment, Zheng Hong clapped his hands, "That's it, with the power of our Lu family's artillery, a few of the five cannons will kill him hundreds of people, hey, it's a pity, if there are more than a dozen artillery, our battle will be much easier!" ”
