Chapter 801: Changning County
The battle ended in an instant, and the bandit leader Yang Qing and Li Fu led the remaining hundred or so bandits out of the forest with their hands raised and surrendered, announcing the destruction of the bandits in Sanbo Mountain.
Wang Shouren and a group of officials and generals in southern Gan were speechless in shock from beginning to end, is this the Sanboshan bandit who has plagued them for several years? It took so long for the officials and generals in southern Gannan to mobilize so many soldiers and horses, and so much effort to exterminate them, but they escaped repeatedly. And Song Nan went out, and in just two days, he even mobilized the soldiers and horses of southern Jiangnan, and then let the bandits raise their hands and surrender.
In addition to being stunned, Wang Shouren sighed: "The name of Zhenguo Gong is not deserved, I am convinced, this battle is an exemplary battle of bandits, whether it is from the layout or the psychological game." Grasping the psychology of the bandits and using their greedy nature to trap is the key to success, but unfortunately the old man was far from thinking of this before. ”
The generals of Gannan thought differently from Wang Shouren, although they also thought that Song Nan deserved to be the god of the Ming army, but they were more interested in the firearms used by the Jinyi guards; I have long heard that there are 1,000 firecracker cavalry in the hands of the Jinyi guard led by the Daming Town Guogong, and today I saw it as an eye-opener, these 500 firecrackers can be used as 5,000 elite soldiers, and it is no wonder that the Zhenguo Gong trusts the big and only leads his own 500 personal guards to suppress the bandits. With such an artifact in hand, what else do the officers and soldiers of Gannan need to do?
Looking at the arrogant and domineering appearance of the Jinyi Guards under Song Nan, the officers of Gannan understood for the first time why even a small lieutenant in the Jinyi Guard was dragged awkward, under the leadership of the famous Zhenguo Gong of the Ming Dynasty, equipped with the most cutting-edge firearms of the Ming Dynasty, and almost undefeated in the war, in this case, how can people not be proud? It's really an enviable itchy tooth root.
Wang Yong led people to clean up the battlefield and detain the prisoners, and the Jinyi guards also suffered casualties, killing eight guards and wounding more than 40 people, which made Wang Yong angry and scolded. But in fact, everyone knows that this is already a very good result, although it is more than 300 bandits, but this bandit is not an ordinary bandit, they are equipped with firearms and sophisticated weapons, the officers and soldiers of southern Gan are well equipped, and they are brave bandits, in the eyes of Wang Shouren and others, this kind of casualty is already a miracle.
The bandits were killed more than a hundred and wounded eight. Ninety, the remaining more than 100 people who surrendered were all wounded, two of the three bandit leaders were captured, and one was beheaded.
When the inventory work was carried out, Song Nan led two hundred guards down from the mountains and forests, although he was a little wolf in the dense forest, and there was a dead branch hanging on Song Nan's sideburns, but this did not hinder Song Nan's image in the hearts of everyone.
Wang Shouren led people forward to give a salute, and said heartily: "Shouren thanked Zhenguo Gong for his clever plan to suppress bandits for the soldiers and civilians of southern Gan. ”
Song Nan laughed and said: "What's so thankful for this, it's just hundreds of bandits, if I can't exterminate them, wouldn't it ruin my reputation, what?" Has the bandit capital been captured? ”
Wang Yong hurriedly said: "The bandit leader Yang Qing and Li Fu were captured, but Wang Ru is dead. Yang Qing killed him. ”
Song Nan was stunned and said, "Take me to take a look." ”
Yang Qing and Li Fu were tied up by the five flowers and sat crookedly next to the wheel of a big car, both of them closed their eyes and were silent, Song Nan led the crowd to come, and a Jinyi guard raised his foot and kicked Li Fu and shouted: "Shangguan is coming, open your eyes and reply." ”
Li Fu opened his mouth to scold, but Yang Qing hit him with his elbow, and Li Fu rolled his eyes without squeaking.
Song Nan came to the front and looked at the two, and said lightly: "Who is Yang Qing and who is Li Fu?" ”
Yang Qing said in a sullen voice: "The villain is Yang Qing." ”
Song Nan nodded and said, "Bandit leader Yang Qing, are you guilty?" ”
Yang Qingdao: "If you want to kill, you will take your convenience, today it falls into your hands, you know that you will die, and it is useless to say more." ”
Song Nan smiled and said: "It's a bit heroic, you can be regarded as self-aware, people like you should be Ling Chi according to the law, even if you want to live, you can't live." ”
The muscles on Yang Qing's face twitched and said, "I beg this lord to take the initiative to surrender and kill Wang Ru for the sake of leaving a whole corpse." ”
Song Nan laughed and said, "Then Wang Ru was killed by you?" Why is that? Aren't you brothers? ”
Yang Qingdao: "This matter is a long story, but there are many people, but I don't want to say it here, this adult is the chief official?" If not, I will ask the chief officer to speak, otherwise I will never tell the reason. ”
Zhao Dapeng raised his foot and kicked Yang Qing, and scolded angrily: "Blind your dog's eyes, do you know who the person in front of you is?" Have you lived too long? ”
Yang Qing was kicked out of breath, his body was tilted to the side, and Li Fu on the side hurriedly arched his body and sat up, shouting: "You can kill but not humiliate, why do you beat people?" Do you want to hear the secret of my brother's belly? ”
Song Nan smiled and said, "Oh? Listening to your voices, what is the earth-shattering secret? Tell me about it? Maybe it's worth two lives. ”
Yang Qing coughed a few times, gasped and said: "The villain said, call the chief official to come, this person can't be an official in Jiangxi, and the official position can't be lower than the third grade, otherwise I'd rather die." ”
"Presumptuous." Zhao Dapeng raised his foot and was about to kick again, but Song Nan waved his hand to stop him, and said with a smile: "This is not the place to talk, come here, take a group of bandits and take them away, Lord Wang, how about we spend the night in the nearby Changning County?" ”
Wang Shouren said: "Very good, don't worry about the corpses of the bandits here, brothers, I will order the Changning garrison to send someone to clean it up." ”
Song Nan nodded and said, "That's the best, let's leave now." ”
A group of people got on the horse and went along the official road to the northwest of Changning County, arrived at Changning County at the end of the time, last night Wang Yong led part of the Jinyi guards to collect carts and buy some paper silver and other things, but it was night into the city, except for the guards of the city gate and some of the people no one knew, at this moment in broad daylight hundreds of Jinyi Guard cavalry entered the city majestically, the small county town suddenly boiled, people curiously watched and pointed out, and discussed.
"These military masters don't seem to be our local garrison, their clothes and armor are not the same at all, where did these things come from?"
"Look at you, I don't know how to do it, these are the brocade guards, do you see the knives on their waists? Thin, long and thin, what is this not an embroidered spring knife? ”
"Oh, really, but how are these brocade guards different from our local brocade guards? We occasionally have brocade guards here, but except for the knife, the whole body is very different. ”
"I don't know this, in short, there are also three, six, nine and other Jinyi guards, just like the Wang butcher on our South Street will nod when he sees the Li butcher on North Street, the same is to kill pigs, but the level is different; Under the New Year's Festival, the two teamed up to kill pigs, Wang Tu could only catch pigs' trotters, but Li Butcher was the one who did it, do you understand? ”
"Oh...... I seem to understand a little bit. ”
“……”
When everyone pointed out and discussed, someone found the identity of more than 100 prisoners tied to the cart behind, these bandits had the audacity to attack Changning County, and some of the people who suffered from the disaster were unforgettable about the appearance of a bandit, and an old man exclaimed: "Isn't that the bandit leader on Sanbo Mountain marijuana?" Officers and soldiers exterminated bandits? ”
The words were like boulders and water, rippling and cascading, and soon some people recognized more bandits, and suddenly the people jumped in surprise, and the news soon spread throughout the city.
"The bandits of Sanbo Mountain have been exterminated by Lord Wang and Jinyi Wei."
"The bandit leader has been captured alive, let's go and take a look."
"Now God has opened his eyes, we can be regarded as stable, I want to go back to tell my father, he can go to Sanboshan to collect medicine and hunt again, he is afraid that he will be sick immediately when he hears the news."
“……”
Sanbo Mountain was originally the place where the urban and rural residents in the vicinity of the left relied on for survival, since the bandits were entrenched, the people could no longer go up the mountain to cut firewood, collect medicine and hunt, the land of southern Jiangxi was less land and more mountains, and the livelihood of the people became a big problem. Now that the bandits have been exterminated, not only in addition to the scourge, but also in their future life, how can the people not rejoice.
The whole county town was empty of thousands of people, men, women and children came to watch, the flow of people was congested with the horse team of Jinyiwei, many people smashed stones and branches at the bandits, dozens of bandits were smashed on the head and blood, and had to hide with their heads in the crotch of their pants.
The Jinyi guards had no choice but to use leather whips, scolding and beating all the way to maintain order.
Song Nan frowned slightly on the horse, he didn't expect that entering the county seat would be such a scene, the mood of the people was understandable, but Song Nan didn't want to make such a big fuss, this is in Jiangxi, the news of the extermination of the bandits in Sanbo Mountain is afraid that it will soon spread throughout Jiangxi, Song Nan doesn't want the news to spread too quickly. It seems that we must hurry up and deal with this problem, perhaps we should quickly get what we want, and then send someone to escort the bandit leader to the capital immediately, otherwise there may be trouble.
