After choosing Zé Yanchang County as the development base, Wang Zhi couldn't help but want to know about the local historical information in order to gain the advantage of foresight, but Du Niang is not omnipotent, Yanchang County's historical information has not been found, but Yanchuan County has a lot of them.
There is a record in the local county annals of Yanchuan County: In June of the third year of Chongzhen, Zhang Yuan, the prefect of Yan'an, and Dusi Aimu led officers and soldiers to attack the prince Shunbu of the righteous army, and surrendered in Yanchuan.
Wang Zishun, whose real name is Wang Zuogui, is a native of Qingjian in Shaanxi Province, and one of the early leaders of the peasant rebel army in the late Ming Dynasty. It is also known as the king of the king and the left hanger. Under the influence of Wang Er's uprising, in the first year of Chongzhen (1628), more than 10,000 people gathered to revolt in Longerzui, Yichuan (now Yichuan County), and moved to various parts of Shaanxi. In April, Shaanxi political participation Hong Chengchou led more than 10,000 troops to surround his troops in Yunyang (now the southeast of Chunhua County), and he led his troops to Chunhua and enter the Shendao Ridge.
In the third year of Chongzhen (1630), he waved his army to attack Yichuan Buke, and then attacked Hancheng (now Hancheng), and the Ming guard was invincible, and Hong Chengchou rushed to help relieve the siege. Later, he went north to Qingjian (now Qingjian County) and was stationed in Suide (now Suide County).
Yichuan is in the south of Yanchang County, and Qingjian is in the north of Yanchang County, with a Yanchuan County in between, Yanchuan County Zhili said that it was surrendered in June, but Wang Zhi saw in another Ming history material that it was "February, Yan'an prefect Zhang Yuan, Dusi Aimu thief Yanchuan, and descended to its Kui Prince Shun, Zhang Shusheng, and Ji San'er."
If these two historical materials are correct, the armies of Zhang Yin and Aimu should have sent troops in February and completed their surrender in Yanchuan in June. It is already May, which means that the battle is almost over, and the army of Zhang Yuan and Aimu should be stationed in Yanchuan County, discussing the surrender with Wang Zishun.
And the reason why this head of the Yu family dared to provoke Wang Zhi, who was obviously not weak. There is no fear. What emboldens him. It's this officer army. Why did the officials and soldiers in Lingxian let him rely on him? Obviously, the official army that originally attacked Wang Zishun wanted to extend and clean up Wang Zhi's wave of petty rogues.
As for why this surnamed Yu was so impatient to send people to attack the peasants who cultivated the land before the arrival of the official army, it must have been to declare his ownership of this land to the other gentry, after all, this land was drilled by Wang Zhi twelve wells, and a simple water conservancy was built, so there was no shortage of water, and it was a rare fertile land in the context of this great drought. It's very eye-catching!
"There is such an army stationed in a neighboring county, and it is too arrogant to know but not to be prepared." Wang Zhi introspected himself.
Because he can fight all day by himself, Wang Zhi looks down on the army of this world in his bones, and he has not done many very basic military behaviors, for example, he does not have the scout under him, and the usual patrol team, if it is during the day, it only patrols between the coal mine, the camp, and the river, and at night it only patrols around the camp. It never occurred to me to probe anything further out.
Because for the time being, there are no professional scout talents and no training time, but more importantly, Wang Zhi thinks that he is strong enough in this world to ignore all intrigues. Therefore, sending scouts to reconnoiter the surrounding situation, the most basic arrangement when the army was marching and stationing, was ignored by him intentionally or unintentionally.
"It's not good if there are enemy troops attacking the camp at night while I'm not there."
Although this situation does not usually happen, and after Wang Zhi leaves this world, the space door is still open, and Zhao Lingyun can report to Wang Zhi through the space gate to the main world. However, Wang Zhi still decided to improve the arms immediately after the battle, and the communication troops and scouts were necessary.
Thinking of this, Wang Zhi instructed Fan Qiuming: "Take this person down and lock him up, and then Hòu informs all platoon commanders and company commanders to come to me for a meeting." ”
The easiest and most appropriate way to deal with this imminent army is to bring Lilia over, and the two of them will infiltrate the enemy camp single-handedly to control the enemy leader, and then hòu will have nothing to do, and continue to train and cultivate the troops.
But there is a saying that the military is the continuation of politics, this sentence is not only applicable to military affairs, but also reflected in other aspects, Wang Zhi's understanding of this sentence is: many times, many things, are affected by the outside world, and it is not necessarily possible to choose the most suitable and appropriate approach according to the subjective will.
For example, the 5.19 incident of the national football team, which happened on May 19, 85, in the home game against the Xiangjiang team in Beijing, the national football team can qualify for the World Cup as long as it draws. You must know that the level of the national football team at that time was still okay, and the year before it won the Asian Cup runner-up, if the national football team chose a conservative strategy at that time and aimed at a draw, it would definitely be able to qualify, but under the pressure of public opinion and leadership, they did not take the most secure measures, but blindly attacked, and lost 1-2.
Wang Zhi was the same, under the pressure of the will of the universe, his IQ plummeted, and his intellectual balance did not support him to choose the most suitable method, but decided to mobilize the army to defeat the official army in a head-on decisive battle, if the number of enemies was not higher than 10,000.
Well, the above is purely lip service, in fact, Wang Zhi just wants to pull out the recruits who have been training for so long to practice, and only soldiers who have gone through actual combat are qualified to be considered elite soldiers.
Soon, Fan Qiuming called all the platoon commanders and company commanders, a total of 24 people, and the small conference room could not accommodate so many people, so they all stood outside the conference room and listened to Wang Zhi's speech.
"I just got the news that there is an officer army stationed in our county, which may be coming and going, and the target should be us."
After Wang Zhi said this, he originally thought that these officers, who had only been in the army for a month or two, might be afraid or excited when they heard that an official army was coming. However, he still underestimated the quality of this group of young officers who had received a simple ideological education, and they all behaved calmly.
A person raised his hand and asked, it was Teng Xiao: "Teacher, I don't know how many people and horses the enemy army has, and what kind of equipment is there?" ”
It is very calm to take a very calm approach, when encountering the enemy, it is necessary to obtain the enemy's intelligence information as soon as possible, and then hòu can make a strategic response according to the enemy's information.
"The number is not clear, but the equipment should be terrible."
The description of this army in the history books is only the sentence "the prefect Zhang Yuan and the Dusi Aimu led the officers and soldiers", so Wang Zhi is not clear about their personnel ratio, but he can also guess that there should not be too many troops, and Jin entered the army after October last year. The armies of the three sides have gone to the capital to Qin Wang. There won't be too many left.
However, the actual number of people still needs to be figured out. Without the ability to investigate, he could only interrogate the captives, so he instructed Fan Qiuming: "Go and bring the head of the Yu family back over." ”
After receiving the order, Fan Qiuming immediately went, and soon came back with the head of the Yu family who was tied up by five flowers.
"Do you know how many people there are in the army?" Wang Zhi asked directly.
"There are nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses under the command of Master Zhang, if you are interested and surrender early, you may be able to get an official position. Glory to the ancestors, otherwise as soon as the imperial army arrives, they will be crushed into powder. ”
Under the roof, Yu Siqi still knows when to say something, and when he revealed the affairs of the official army before, he just wanted to scare Wang Zhi into surrendering, so that the safety of him and his family would be guaranteed.
"Where have they been?" Wang Zhi then asked.
Yu Siqi didn't answer this question directly, because he didn't know either, and just continued to persuade him to surrender.
Wang Zhi knew that he couldn't ask anything anymore and didn't want to listen to this nonsense. Said lightly: "This person is useless, and it is also a waste of food when he is locked up." Killed. ”
Hearing this, Fan Qiuming, who was standing behind Yu Siqi, immediately pulled out the long knife at his waist, and the sword light fell, and a bloody light flew up.
"He said that the official army has nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses, obviously a random number of people, not credible, the capital is in charge of the guard, a guard has 5,600 people, if it is calculated according to half of the vacancy, even if he does his best to guard the army, the officers and soldiers who are attacking this time plus the people, there should only be more than 3,000 people, you can fight five of them." Wang Zhi said with a smile, these heavy armored infantry under his command went to fight the guards who were not much stronger than Huazi, and there was no pressure at all to fight five at all, this was the crushing of equipment.
"Teacher, shouldn't one fight four?" Zhao Dawa, commander of the second company, said that there are more than 900 people in six companies, and it is enough to deal with more than 3,000 enemy soldiers and four at a time.
"If there are only 3,000 officers and troops attacking this time, I will only send four companies to fight, so one will fight five." After explaining, Wang Zhi then said: "Okay, now enter the state of combat readiness, all companies must be ready to fight at any time, this is your first battle in the true sense, don't let me down, otherwise I will let you experience what despair is." Disband now, and go back to deliver the order to your soldiers to prepare for battle. ”
As soon as the order to disband, the officers immediately dispersed.
The officers dispersed and prepared to start the war, but Wang Zhi could not be idle, how many soldiers and horses the enemy army had, and what the combat effectiveness was, it would definitely not be possible to deduce it by analysis and conjecture alone, this was not responsible for the soldiers under the shǒu, and he had to go and actually investigate.
However, for reconnaissance like this, scouts need to use horses to increase mobility, otherwise the enemy may arrive at the doorstep, and the scouts sent have not returned.
Wang Zhi's men had dozens of horses, which were snatched from horse thieves on the way to Yanchang, all of them were Mongolian horses, although they were not high-grade war horses, but they could also be ridden, but at that time, Wang Zhi's men did not know how to ride horses, so they could only be used as horses, put on the car and pull things.
Now there are two of the newly accepted homeless people who can ride horses, but they are all alone, have no relatives, and they are more suspicious to come to lì, Wang Zhi will definitely not let them investigate the news, otherwise they will not return the lost horses after riding a horse.
Therefore, in order to obtain the intelligence of the official army, it is unrealistic to send people to investigate by yourself, so you can only hope for Huzhi County in the county seat, after all, he and the official army are in the same system, and the official army must send an official document to inform him when he goes to his territory, not to mention that there is a big man in the army, Yan'an Prefect, and he must send an official letter in advance to let the county magistrate prepare for the reception work!
So Wang Zhi found a clerk and asked him to write a letter, and then Hòu sent him to the county seat to deliver the letter, and also sent a tractor to deliver him.
About an hour later, the clerk came back on a tractor, along with a reply from Hu Zhixian.
Wang Zhi immediately opened it and looked at it, Yan'an Governor Zhang Yuan and Dusi Aimu did bring the army to Yanchang County to suppress the thieves, but the number of troops was not as small as Wang Zhixiang, counting the people, there were more than 5,000 people, including 200 cavalry.
Now Wang Zhi was a little distressed, the cavalry was known as the strongest class of troops in the Leng Bīngqì era, and it was also an elite class, two hundred cavalry could defeat tens of thousands of Liukou in wǎng, which could already pose a threat to the heavy armored infantry under him, after all, what they were holding in their hands was only a three-meter-long infantry spear, not the kind of spear more than five meters long used by the infantry phalanx against the cavalry.
"It seems that I can only kill those cavalry first." A plan just popped up in his mind, but he was quickly vetoed by Wang Zhi: "No, it's too shocking to destroy two hundred cavalry by one person, what if the scene is too bloody and directly scares the enemy away, the main purpose of this time is to train the troops." ”
After thinking about it again, Wang Zhi sighed: "I still have to bring Lilia over!" (To be continued.) )
