When Zuo Maotai heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, he was lacking soldiers and horses in his headquarters, didn't Ling Jingyang and the others just send charcoal in the snow?

"Oh, it's the White Crane."

Ling Jingyang also told him that they captured a Qing soldier, Zuo Maotai was the left waiter of the military department, seeing that Ling Jingyang and others were in good spirits, completely different from Tang Tong's soldiers and horses, and now it was a shortage of people, so he didn't say a word, and Ling Jingyang said: "Such a fierce general, a single department is really overkill, this waiter promoted you to the flag, and commanded all the soldiers and horses in the Santun camp." ”

The soldiers and horses in the Santun camp are almost all Tang Tong's routs, the combat effectiveness is not as good as the Dashun army, and the will to fight is even worse, give it to Ling Jingyang, Zuo Maotai is not heartbroken, Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen are between everyone, thinking that this Zuo Maotai is also an old fox, and it is inconvenient for him to come out to command, so he promoted Ling Jingyang and other bosses to support him, and commanded Tang Tong's subordinates through Ling Jingyang and others.

Ling Jingyang lowered his head, looked at the ground with his eyes, and blinked several times, this from the head of the post, to the head of the department, and then to the flag, it has only been a few days, and he has been promoted to three levels, he hurriedly thanked Zuo Maotai for cultivating, Zuo Maotai was not polite, and said to him: "I will hand over these three camps to you, and this servant will tell Your Majesty the information that Wu Sangui and Jiannu hooked up together, and by the way, he also told General Bai in Jizhou, you don't go back to General Bai." ”

Ling Jingyang raised his head suddenly, Zuo Maotai was startled by him, and said: "Ling Zhangqi, don't you dare to lead the troops to garrison the Santun camp?" ”

His tone was full of toughness, Ling Jingyang was not easy to refute, and the remnants of the defeated army with a weak will to fight in Santun Camp were besieged by the Qing army and the Guanning army, and it was almost an act of death.

But Zuo Maotai is the left squire of the military department, the second-in-command in the military department, and the highest official of the Santun camp, and his orders are orders on behalf of the military department, and they must be meticulously implemented, otherwise they will be regarded as rebels.

Although he knew that Wu Sangui and Jiannu colluded together, and also knew that there were a small number of Jiannu troops in the pass, he still thought that the Jiannu army was still outside the pass, even if it was a starry night, it would need to be assembled, and it would take at least ten days to reach Shanhaiguan.

After he left, Ling Jingyang looked at the remaining soldiers of the Dashun Army in the Santun camp, Zuo Maotai took more than 100 people, and lost more than 100 people in the battle with Bayala, after Zuo Maotai left, hundreds of people dispersed on their own, leaving more than 500 people, which happened to be a force that could be commanded by a banner.

Ling Jingyang also didn't have time to get familiar with the troops, since he was in charge of the flag, of course he didn't let him start giving orders, the first order was to appoint Li Rufeng as the head of the department, after all, Li Rufeng's ability was more prominent, followed by Zhang Luofu was also the head of the department, this person was a good hand at charging into battle, giving him some sweetness, and letting him do his best to protect Zhu Youzhen.

In the end, more than 500 soldiers and horses under Tang Tong were divided into two generals, each with 250 people, and in front of the appointment and dismissal, it was announced that Li Rufeng and Zhang Luofu were appointed as the general ministers, Lao Mantou, and Dong Daqi continued to serve as the commanders, and this army was incorporated not long ago, or followed the Ming military general system, of which there were two generals, five general flags, and seven small banners, all of which were low-level officers in the army, and these people continued to be retained.

Ling Jingyang also ordered the collection of weapons and ammunition, whether it was outside the Santun camp or inside, all the weapons and ammunition scattered on the ground were all camped by Dan Dandan, and all the war horses were placed in the horse barn, so as to prevent the cavalry from opening the way and the whole army from protruding when it could not be defended.

Ling Jingyang was still trying to adapt to a battalion-level officer, thinking how many days would he have to be stationed here? The two generals came with their heads held high, they and the Qing army, and the Guan Ning army have had a bloody battle, very bloody, the two came to Ling Jingyang, clasped their fists with both hands, and said: "Zhangqi, our two brothers are not afraid of death, please let us go to garrison Nancheng." ”

Ling Jingyang rode a war horse before and ran around the Santun camp, and had a general impression of the construction of the Santun camp in his heart, if the Guanning army wanted to break through the Santun camp, the south gate was a place that was easy to break through, and it really needed to be heavily guarded.

"What's your name?"

"The Last Will Be All Iron Wind"

"The Last Will Be Cold as Iron"

Two big words suddenly appeared in Ling Jingyang's mind.

Martial arts.

The names of these two people are strong martial arts, he said: "The south gate is the most dangerous, this flag will be guarded in person, you two people one east gate, one west gate, and go to the outside of Tunzi to find water, if Tunzi is besieged, there is no water, three days can not withstand it." ”

The whole iron wind and cold iron brought more than 100 people, carrying wooden barrels and other water storage tools in the city, and went to the river outside Tunzi to get water, and there was also water in the city, but not much, Ling Jingyang asked them to go outside the city to get water, by the way, to see if these people were loyal?

Zhu Youzhen didn't know when he came to Qin Chu's side, this time he stepped on a bird pole and said: "Mr. Lingbu, no, listen to the flag, you trust these people so much, aren't you afraid that they will run away?" ”

"It's better to run, if you don't run, Li hinders Tunzi within the year, the Guanning army will attack the city, they and the Guanning army should cooperate with the outside world, aren't our group of people the Guanning army in one pot?

Zhu Youzhen replied to Ling Jingyang lightly: "Then let's see, see if this group of people is really trustworthy?" ”

"You don't have to say cool words, if you have a heart, you should help think of a way, how to get food, we brought these steamed buns, it is enough to eat for three days, and more than 500 people came today, and now they are not hungry, and when they are hungry, you see how many people are still willing to be with us?"

"Stomach, or belly, you ask me how to fill their stomachs, if I have this ability, to fill the stomachs of the people of the world, this Ming Dynasty will still be like this?"

Zhu Youzhen's face was very painful, as if he was punched to the heart by Ling Jingyang, threw down this sentence, returned to the tunzi, and chose a suitable weapon for himself, Ling Jingyang looked at Zhu Youzhen's back, probed his breath, summoned Li Rufeng, Lao Mantou and others, and told them that they must get grain and grass as soon as possible, if the food is cut off, the troops will either break up or mutiny, cut him these bosses Shun army, and surrender to the Guanning army.

The problem of grain and grass made Ling Jingyang and other generals at a loss, the old steamed bun suggested going hunting outside the city, maybe he could get some game, fill his stomach, Ling Jingyang felt that it was inappropriate, how much game do more than 500 people need, not to mention this season, even if it hits hundreds of wild horses, wild sheep, roe deer and other animals, there is no salt to pickle, and it can be stored for a few days, maybe it can be dried, but without carbohydrates, these meat products are unbearable.

Dong Daqi said suddenly: "This was the residence of the Jizhou General Military Officer's Mansion before, is there any grain and grass in the tunzi?" ”
