Section 25 Follow-up

At this time, the Houjin army on the head of Haizhou City was still blocking and shooting, and from time to time, the officers and soldiers of the Dongjiang River carrying earth and stones fell under their firepower, and the eye-catching white feathers on the heads of the soldiers of the firefighting battalion and the engineer team attracted their attention. Just in front of Ouyang Xin's eyes, the queue of the firefighting battalion carrying equipment was hit by the tiger squat cannon, and once an engineer officer threw himself down without saying a word, his body was still by the moat, and his head rushed straight into the water.

Another fire-fighting battalion officer behind him bent down and picked up the command flag in his hand, took over the traffic command, and now the engineer team of the fire-fighting battalion has begun to take charge of directing road traffic and strengthening the moat that has been basically filled up. The other two soldiers dragged the dead officer out of the water, and the officer was laid flat on the ground, and the soldier first controlled the water from his helmet, and then straightened the helmet rope around his neck, and untied it and retied it before carrying him down.

"This sapper team is really useful. ”

After listening to the reports of the officers on the front line, Mao Wenlong, the chief soldier of the Dongjiang River, also had such feelings: the degree of wall planing today is three times faster than usual. At this time, there were several continuous explosions in front, that is, the fire battalion engineer team was trying to blast black powder, and at that time, as the hole continued to expand, the engineer team stuffed the whole barrel of gunpowder into the hole, hoping to speed up the disintegration of the wall slab.

General Pan had been observing the movements of the firefighting battalion engineer team for a long time, and when he thought he understood, he walked straight to the wall and crowded into a group of sappers in the firefighting battalion and said, "Let Ben try it in the future!"

The big-shouldered and round-waisted Pan Guerrilla took the crank, and the roar shook it so fast that the drill kept splashing out the soil foam from the wall, which made General Pan more and more happy. He couldn't help but laugh as he stared at the drill bit that was quickly burrowing into the wall blank: "Haha, this engineer team is really very useful." ”

In order to make the work easier, the engineering team of the firefighting camp only wore helmets and no armor, and as for the excavation teams of the Dongjiang Army, starting from General Pan, they were all shirtless. Therefore, the bows and arrows in the city always posed a certain threat to them, and Ouyang Xin, who was in charge of recording the number, was discussing with his two subordinates, and suddenly rushed forward two steps without warning.

"Damn. I thought someone kicked me, and I was about to turn around and hit someone. Ouyang Xin rushed forward a few steps before he stood firm, there was an extra arrow on his hip, and after his colleagues helped Ouyang Xin break the tail of the arrow, he was already grinning in pain. According to the regulations of the fire battalion, an arrow in a non-critical part can only be regarded as a slight injury, and three arrows can be counted as a serious injury with the same knife, Ouyang Xin stroked the position of the arrow and scolded again: "Tartar." I don't talk about shooting high, such as waist, back, or anything. That way, I can go down and rest even if I am seriously injured. ”

Everyone laughed after listening to Ouyang Xin's words, Ouyang Xin also inhaled a cool breath from between his teeth, smiled, and then clapped his hands, and the expression on his face became stern again: "Okay, let's continue to work." ”

After the city wall was ripped open enough to open a gap, Mao Wenlong's flag waved again.

"Kill, kill, kill, boys. Beat our drums!" Kong Youde waved his horse lance in the air and made a big circle, and he grabbed the war horse under his crotch, shouting loudly, and the horse took the lead towards Haizhou.

On Kong Youde's two wings, the other Dongjiang generals also rode forward: "Beat the drums, sons." Hugh will be left behind others. ”

Thousands of Dongjiang horses marched into Haizhou City in unison amid the sound of drums, and the fire from the ground on both walls became more and more intense, and even the roar of eighteen-pounder cannons appeared for the first time. After the thunderous cannon sound, a large ball of blood bloomed in the thick column of the Dongjiang Army.

It's just that this blood light is just a flash in the pan, and most of the Dongjiang soldiers can only wear a helmet. Many of them were still worn-out, and some of the soldiers with swords and shields did not even have helmets. But their steps were steadfast, their gaze never wandered, and the expression on their faces was so serene and serene that it was as if they were wearing the armor of the god of war.

Therefore. The fleeting color of blood was like a gravel thrown into a torrent. Set off a pinch of waves, and then quickly return to invisible. The torrent is still pouring forward, and thousands of Ming officers and soldiers form a local flow of people, like a happy stream rolling in from the gap......

Before the sun sank in the west, the banner of the Ming army had been planted in the sky above Haizhou City, and the arson of the Houjin army in the city was basically extinguished by the Dongjiang army.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, suddenly, a knight rushed towards the gap in the Haizhou city wall with a spear on the tip of the spear and a human head on the tip of the spear. A man and a horse were like a swift bolt of lightning, and in the blink of an eye they had reached the foot of the city wall. As soon as the knight flicked his horse's head, his mount leaped from the adobe at the edge of the gap to the wall, which was as steep as a cliff when it fell, and the horse was in descent as he rushed to the edge of the city.

In front of the eyes of tens of thousands of Dongjiang officers and soldiers, the horse's body began to slip with four hooves, and it was about to fall backwards, saying that it was too late, and the knight on the horse maintained the posture of a flat-ended spear, and the spurs of his two boots were used hard at the same time, and the spurs of his boots stung the mount under his ribs.

After settling the horse, the knight slowly turned horizontally with his spear in his hand, and a large circle was pointed at by the tip of his spear, and for a moment it became silent.

Immediately, it was Kong Youde, he clenched his fist with one hand, and the flagpole holding the head of the Haizhou guard with the other, raised his arms high into the sky at the same time, and straightened his knees at the same time, and the man also got up from the saddle.

After raising his arms in a V-shape, Kong Youde stood on the stirrup and turned around leisurely, his movements were so calm, as if he had all the time in this world.

The flag was waving and fluttering at the head of Haizhou City, and the knight was sent with the wind, and he shouted with pride: "My Dongjiang Army-"

"Mighty!~"

"Mighty!~"

Tens of thousands of Ming officers and soldiers inside and outside Haizhou all raised their arms and shouted, Huangshi was also among them, and Mao Wenlong was also among them......

-- The heavens are in the ancestors of Shanghua China as evidence. Whether it is facing Huang Taiji, or facing Yuan Chonghuan, whether facing war or conspiracies, I Huangshi, but if I still have a breath, I will never let these hundreds of thousands of Liaodong children fall into the hands of Jiannu.

On May 8, the sixth year of the Apocalypse, the Dongjiang Army went to Haizhou in one day.

......

Although the Dongjiang Town Zuo Association has always thought that the clean-up work is not bad, especially when it was Juehua, the level of the Dongjiang Zuo Association to eat dry and wipe clean made Guan Ning's friendly army amazed, and Huangshi's subordinates at that time took away the clothes of the dead. The good ones can be kept for their own use. If you don't get a good one, you can wash it and make a sack, and if it's too bad, you can sell it to the Japanese.

Yao Shen and the others were naturally fortunate to visit Dongjiang Town, and the Left Association cleaned up the battlefield, and later they commented: "If every army is like the Huang Junmendi's mendi, then there will never be beggars on the battlefield after the war." ”

However, after seeing the methods of the Dongjiang Headquarters today, the officers and men of the Left Association realized that they were still far behind. There was a grain warehouse that had been cleaned up by the Left Association, but the people from the Dongjiang Headquarters shook their heads after a casual glance, and the officers of the headquarters followed and pulled a group of people from the headquarters in from the street, and without saying a word, they reworked the work of the Left Association.

These are simply random people who cooperate extremely tacitly. In front of Zuoxie, they dismantled all the furniture into pieces, took out all the iron nails and iron sheets, and then they pried up the stone slabs on the floor of the warehouse piece by piece, and used brooms to clean up all the grain particles underneath. In the end, the people in the headquarters also cleaned up all the dust painted on the warehouse wall, and the officer explained to the bewildered officers and soldiers of the Left Association: There may be some old pasted wallpaper underneath, and since you have encountered such good things, you must not let them go.

The work attitude of the Dongjiang headquarters gave a great shock to the officers and men of the Left Association, and when the officers and men of the Left Association saw that they all collectively felt guilty, Huang Shi ordered the Left Association to withdraw from the battlefield and clean up the work, anyway, Mao Wenlong said it. No matter how many seizures are cleared, Yellowstone's share will not be missing.

Originally, Huangshi estimated that he could get a lot of seizures from Haizhou, but after a toss and turn by the Dongjiang headquarters, Huangshi realized that there were so many military supplies in this city, which was more than 30% more than the upper limit of his estimate! After some discussion, the Dongjiang military headquarters and the Zuo Xie Association discussed it. In the end, all the cannons that were inconvenient to carry belonged to the Left Association, and the rest of the materials were divided into 28 points, and the Department took the big head, and the Left Association took the small head.

Huangshi had already given Ouyang Xin permission in advance, so the Dongjiang headquarters asked for a few tools from the fire battalion engineering team, and the armed guerrillas sent a few people to the rear to give Mao Wenlong a look. Several people demonstrated the utility of the auger drill bit and the sapper shovel in front of Mao Shuai, and then handed them to Mao Wenlong one by one.

"This sapper corps is really good. And these guys who do the work. Mao Wenlong stroked these brand-new, shiny instruments, and repeated the exclamation just now, he specially checked the opening of Haizhou City, and at today's level, the walls of most cities in Liaodong can be cut down in about a year. Shorter time also means fewer casualties.

Mao Wenlong fiddled with these instruments in his hands, and the more he looked at them, the more he liked them. For a while, I couldn't put it down, that Pan guerrilla had been listening next to the two governors, and at this time he also echoed Mao Wenlong and said: "The marshal said it well, and the last general thinks that if my department forms a large number of engineering teams and equips them with these guys, it will be almost invincible." ”

These words caused a burst of laughter from the others, and Geng Zhongming patted Pan Guerrilla on the shoulder and called him "fool" twice. When everyone laughed, General Pan also laughed innocently, not hearing the mockery in the laughter of others.

Since the completion of the city wall, General Pan has been pestering Ouyang Xin, asking how these things are made, and asking him if he can ask a few craftsmen from Zuo Xie for the Dongjiang headquarters. Ouyang Xin repeatedly explained that these sappers were not his personal property, and every aspect of Changsheng Island was to be decided by Huangshi, and as for the craftsmen, they did not belong to the firefighting battalion engineer team.

But this General Pan always felt that Ouyang Xin was perfunctory to him, and in the end, Ouyang Xin was asked by him, so he pushed all the qiē to Huangshi, and slipped away under the pretext of treating the wound. Huang Shi was also pestered by him, so he secretly inquired with Geng Zhongming and them, and only then did they know that this General Pan was from Shandong, and was originally a servant of a large family.

Brother Pan was a bit stupid, he didn't know anything about the scale and living conditions of the Dongjiang Army, and when he saw the grain packets on the grain ship in Dengzhou three years ago, he thought that he would be able to eat enough if he joined the Dongjiang Army. So he recklessly joined the army. However, Brother Pan is hard-working, dirty and tired, and he has worked for several years without complaints, so although he has no military talent, he still accumulates merit and is promoted to guerrilla, and he is also hereditary in Dongjiang Town.

Generally speaking, a petty official like General Pan should really be angry in front of Huangshi, and he doesn't dare to say a mouthful, but General Pan doesn't seem to have a very strong sense of awe for Mao Wenlong, so he has nothing for Huangshi: "Deputy marshal." Whether you can sell it to some craftsmen at the end of the price, the deputy marshal, you have the final say. ”

Huang Shi has heard this several times today, and in any case, it is still a little unpleasant to be regarded by others, especially a petty official, as a greedy person, not to mention that Huang Shi really looks down on the financial resources that a small guerrilla in the Dongjiang headquarters may have. This time, as soon as General Pan spoke in front of everyone, a group of officers from the Dongjiang headquarters secretly shouted that they were so clever that they would rush up to interrupt them.

After a few words with them, Huang Shi also made up his mind in his heart, he called Ouyang Xin and gave them a few words. smiled and said to Pan Guerrilla: "General Pan, it's not that I don't want to cut my love, it's just that these instruments are really troublesome to build, I built a lot of things called windmills and waterwheels on Changsheng Island, just to build these guys, it's really not a matter of a few craftsmen......

Seeing that there was a hint of disapproval on the other party's face, Huang Shi laughed self-deprecatingly, and it was good that he had a clear conscience, so why bother to explain it so hard, but it made people feel even more unbelievable: "That's it." General Pan, I'll ask my sons and daughters to hand over their guys to you, and I'll go back and build another set. ”

The engineering equipment of the entire firefighting battalion engineering team cost Huangshi almost 30,000 taels of silver, which can catch up with the cost of all the cannons and firecrackers in the firefighting battalion, but Huangshi still has a lot of money in his hand now. If this batch of equipment can reduce the death of thousands of people in the headquarters, Pingliao a few years earlier, then Huangshi is not reluctant to say it. What's more, in the future, there will be a lot less detours to build new engineering equipment, and the cost will not be so amazing, and the experience gained in the past few days can also be applied to the new production and manufacturing, the so-called "old does not go, new does not come", isn't that the same thing?

The rejoicing General Pan hurried to receive the equipment. Someone hurriedly pulled him: "Fool Pan is about to have a celebration banquet." ”

"It's never too late to come back and drink again. General Pan broke free from the pull of others and went happily.

For this excitement, Mao Wenlong always watched coldly, and waited for everyone to laugh again. He said to Huang Shi: "Huang Shi is a rough man. You don't want to be like him. ”

Huang Shi also smiled: "What the big marshal said is true." ”

"It's best if you think so, anyway, sooner or later, he will also be your subordinate, and if you give it to him, it won't be a compensation. ”

As soon as Mao Wenlong's words came out, the boiling voices in the tent fell silent all of a sudden, and Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming, who were talking to Huangshi, had a slight change in color on their faces, and there were people behind him who gasped.

Huang Shi was in the center of everyone's attention, and for a while, there was silence all around, and the sound of steel needles falling to the ground could be heard, Huang Shi listened to the breathing and coughing sounds that Zuo Jinren tried his best to suppress, and said loudly with an unchanged complexion: "The big handsome man said seriously, these are all the sons of Liaodong, and the comrades of the Dongjiang military and land are not compensated. ”

Mao Wenlong smiled again when he heard this: "Huangshi's words are very good, as long as there is a person like you, even if I am not there, the children of Dongjiang will not be able to suffer." ”

"Boss, what are you talking about?" Kong Youde shouted first, and the officers of the whole battalion also followed suit, covering up the embarrassing atmosphere just now.

The next thing is the celebration banquet, at the banquet, the Dongjiang generals naturally toasted the two governors, after hearing Mao Wenlong's words just now, now they and Huangshi looked at each other with a subtle look, compared with yesterday, it seems that there is more awe, but also more expectations.

After the banquet, Mao Wenlong asked Huang Shi to accompany him to inspect the barracks, the guards of the two people were far away, and the governors walked one after the other for a long time, but no one spoke first.

Mao Wenlong pondered for a long time, and finally found a casual conversation: "Haizhou is down, and then Huangshi, what are your plans?"

From Haizhou to Liaoyang, there is an Anshan in front of it, and on the fifth day, Mao Wenlong has sent a team of men and horses to attack Anshan, but the effect is very poor. Anshan not only has a large number of artillery, but also a lot of defenders, Dongjiang soldiers and soldiers suffered heavy casualties, for such a small fortress, Mao Wenlong believes that mobilizing tens of thousands of people to attack is not worth the loss, and the small fortress also has the advantages of a small fortress, and the Dongjiang army and the tactics of crowds are not easy to swing.

"Mao Shuai Mingjian's main purpose of sending troops to our army this time was to contain Jiannu, force Jiannu to return from northern Liao, and cooperate with the governor of Liaodong to build Jinzhou City. If that's all the purpose is, the end will think it's almost over. ”

Although Huang Shi did not have clairvoyance, he could guess the shock that this invasion of Liaozhong would bring to Nurhachi, which was the second time in half a year. It's just that with the current state of the Dongjiang Army, Huangshi has no confidence in a decisive battle with the main force of the Later Jin.
