Chapter 0225: The Fall of Another Prince in Sichuan
Sun Kewang is here to write a letter to Qin Zuoming who doesn't need your help, and the other three brothers don't know it.
And Zeng Ying also received a letter from Qin Zuoming, informing him that Zhang Xianzhong, the commander of the Great Western Army, was shot and killed by the commander of the Qing army, Haoge.
As a result, the Great Western Army was in turmoil and wanted to urgently flee back to central Sichuan and go to Guizhou and other places.
I hope that I can open the net to avoid unnecessary casualties.
Everyone is fighting against the Qing Dynasty together, which can be regarded as an alliance.
Today's great enemy is the Qing army, not the Great Western Army, and I hope that I can consider it carefully.
After Zeng Ying read it, he laughed: "Zhang Xianzhong, the thief, is finally dead." ”
As soon as he said this, the generals under his command were also quite excited.
Li Harizi stood up suddenly: "Father-in-law, but Brother Qin, he killed him?" ”
Except for Qin Zuoming, the entire Sichuan is afraid that he does not have this kind of strength, and he can successfully kill Zhang Xianzhong.
You must know that although Zhang Xianzhong was abducted by Qin Zuoming with 100,000 people, he still has hundreds of thousands of troops, among which the old battalion is the elite of the elite of the Great Western Army.
Ordinary soldiers, if they want to enter Zhang Xianzhong's old camp, it is very difficult.
The most important thing is that this letter was sent by Qin Zuoming.
All of this shows that it was Brother Qin who killed Zhang Xianzhong.
Facing the earnest thoughts of the generals under his command, especially Yizi, Zeng Ying shook his head:
"Zhang Xianzhong was shot by the commander of the Qing army, Hao Ge, with an arrow."
"Qing army?"
Li Harrier was a little surprised, he heard that Zhang Xianzhong was stationed in Xichong these days.
How could the Qing army go deep into the hinterland of Shunqing Province?
Could it be that Guangyuan, the northern gate of Sichuan, has been lost?
Why is there no news at all!
No, Li Harizi shook his head: "It should be Liu Jinzhong who led the way, came in from the two passes, pretended to be the men and horses of the Great Western Army, and quietly approached Zhang Xianzhong's camp, so he gave Haoge a chance." ”
Zeng Ying agreed with Li Harrier's words, and the traitor is sometimes more destructive than the enemy.
If it weren't for this, facing Zhang Xianzhong with hundreds of thousands of horses, this kind of death of the coach would never have happened.
"In this letter to me, Brother Qin hopes that I can open up the net to prevent the Great Western Army dog from jumping off the wall in a hurry."
Zeng Ying handed the letter to his wife first, and then said to the generals in the hall: "You all tell me, do I let it go or not?" ”
In recent days, Zeng Ying has benefited from his previous prestige and strength, and Mu Handing and others have led thousands of cars to join the public.
The distribution of forces in Kawanaka is already very obvious.
The most important thing is that more than 200,000 businessmen avoided the land and relied on self-consolidation, so it became a market.
The huge number of people attached made Zeng Ying even more confident.
Li Harizi fell into deep thought, Qin Zuoming considered the overall situation, the Qing army entered Shu, and he needed to force the Qing army back with all his strength to ensure that Shu was not obtained by the Qing court.
And the Great Western Army fought with the Qing army, and it was nominally an ally of its own.
The newly attached Mu Handing and others persuaded themselves to take advantage of his illness and make him sick!
As soon as Zhang Xianzhong died, the Great Western Army was in chaos, if he didn't eat the Great Western Army at this time, how could he let him go?
Although there are now many royal families who declare that they are in charge of the country or become emperors, there is no unified order, but it is a serious matter to suppress thieves.
Li Harrier hugged his fists and said: "Father-in-law, Brother Qin will not be untargeted, it is better to open the net." ”
"When the Great Western Army killed our officers and soldiers, how could they have opened the net?" Li Ding snorted and said:
"I think that when the city of Chongqing was broken, more than 30,000 soldiers were cut off their right arms and became invalids, can this revenge not be avenged?"
"Yes."
Many generals echoed this, which was a humiliation for them by the Great Western Army.
Now that they are in trouble, how can they be let go?
You have to step on it hard, and if you don't fight, how can you expand your strength?
Zeng Ying bowed slightly, that's what he meant, he took two steps:
"At the beginning, Qin Zuoming ignored the overall situation of the superintendent Wang Yingxiong and Fan Yiheng, and came forward to kill Fan Wenguang, the official of the imperial court, as well as the soldiers under his command who plundered the people."
"Now Qin Zuoming wants me to focus on the overall situation, enlarge the departure of the Western Army, and avoid the situation of fish dying and the net being broken?"
Zeng Ying put his hands behind his back: "I'm going to wipe out the Great Western Army." ”
"The general is wise."
The praise of Yu Chong and others was endless.
Li Harrier pursed his lips and said nothing, although what Brother Qin said made sense, but he had to listen to his father-in-law.
Just as they had made up their minds, a soldier came running in from outside and fell on one knee:
"Newspaper. Lord Commander, the advance of the Great Western Army has already reached three miles away from Futu Pass. ”
"Okay." Zeng Ying clenched his fists and said: "Sure enough, I can't listen to Brother Qin, he didn't even convince the Great Western Army, and he wants to persuade me to release him first."
Sun Kewang wanted to kill us by surprise, and he would never agree. ”
"Never!" The northerners of Mu Handing immediately raised their arms and shouted.
Zeng Ying looked at his subordinates with strong fighting spirit, and he nodded with great satisfaction.
"Li Ding, Yu Chong, Tao Kefa."
"The end will be." The three of them replied loudly.
"The three of you have moved all the warships in the river to the south bank, and you must not leave ships for the Great Western Army." Zeng Ying paused and said, "I'll not fight for the time being, it's them who are in a hurry." ”
"Yes." The three staff officers took the lead in going down to prepare.
After a while, everyone arrived at the gate, and the Great Western Army had no boats to cross the river at all, so they could only set up camp downstream and then collect war boats everywhere.
Li Harizi looked at the Great Western Army gathered on the other side of the river, and suddenly had a plan: "Father-in-law, why don't I lead the light cavalry to bypass the downstream and sneak attack their camp."
The army attacked Sun Kewang on the other side of the river, not giving them a chance to prepare. ”
Zeng Ying looked at the river from afar, but shook his head: "It is Sun Kewang and other remnants of the Great Western Army who are in a hurry to fight now, not us."
The Great Western Army fought fiercely with the Qing army, and then fled all the way, relying only on one breath to support, and when it was tired, it fought again. ”
The more he talked, the happier he became, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth: "It's just a group of lost dogs." ”
Li Harrier didn't say anything, the longer the time dragged on, the more desperate the Great Western Army became, and the higher the combat effectiveness became.
Anyway, advancing is death, retreating is death, and moving forward desperately may still be alive.
Sun Kewang, who was on the other side of the south bank, looked at the Ming warships on the other side of the river, and looked like he was defending with all his might, and his clenched fists were hard.
"Dogs, they want to stall for time."
Now the rest of the Great Western Army is controlled by Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo, but there are always people who want to show his presence.
Wang Zhaolin thought that after marrying Zhang Xianzhong's wife Gao, he felt at ease again.
Standing by the river, he said eagerly: "Hurry up and cross the river to storm Fotu Pass, if you delay, not only will the army's morale be scattered, but the pursuers will also come."
At that time, we will be flanked back and forth, and there will be no way to escape. ”
Li Dingguo surprisingly did not refute: "Qin Zuoming said that he would block the follow-up Tartars, and he also said that he would let Zeng Ying make way out."
But now Zeng Ying doesn't seem to listen to him very much, a bandit. ”
No one cares what Wang Zhaolin says now, because the people who often take his advice are dead.
As long as the difficulties are extricated, the drama of purge will inevitably be staged within the Great Western Army, so as to determine the dominance within the Great Western Army.
Sun Kewang didn't want to have anything to do with Qin Zuoming at all, but the second child's favor for Qin Zuoming has been rising recently.
"He, Qin Zuoming, is not the same in Sichuan and Shu." Sun Kewang pointed to the Buddha Tuguan and said, "Zeng Ying's power is expanding extremely rapidly now, he won't listen to Qin Zuoming."
So to kill Sichuan and Shu, we can only rely on ourselves.
If you can't kill it, everyone will have to die in this river to feed the fish, and even if there is a corpse, your head will be cut off and passed on to the four directions. ”
Sun Kewang looked back at the soldiers under his command: "Soldiers, when it comes to life and death, don't be stingy with your life." ”
"It's all up to the general." The crowd responded in an uproar, and the sound shook the other side.
"Liu Wenxiu." Sun Kewang shouted loudly.
"Yes." Liu Wenxiu clenched his fists slightly, waiting for the order: "But according to the orders of the eldest brother." ”
"I ordered you to enter first, Xu Hu and others from it, kill to the front of the dog officer army, I will go from the back, and Dingguo will command the rear army, and act when the opportunity arises."
"Yes."
The fourth general, Ainengqi, stood on the shore and personally beat the drums and cheered, at this moment it has come to the time of life and death of the Great Western Army, and when will he not work hard?
"Big brother, there is our internal response on the other side of the river." Li Dingguo rode to the side and reminded him in a whisper.
"What?"
Sun Kewang's eyes widened immediately, he didn't know when Li Dingguo planted the nail.
"Second brother, when my Great Western Army lives and dies, you must not deceive me."
Li Dingguo nodded heavily and said: "I just saw that flag, I thought he was there in Kuizhou, but I never thought that it was actually thrown into Zeng Ying's subordinates."
In order to avoid being discovered, I haven't been in touch for a long time, and my father-in-law arranged for me to do it, and if I hadn't seen that flag, I would have forgotten it. ”
Sun Kewang was relieved in his heart, and hurriedly asked in a low voice, "Who is it?" ”
"Yu Chong."
Liu Wenxiu commanded the small fishing boats he had collected, and began to attack the other side of the river with his elite soldiers.
"Heh, they're in a hurry, they're in a hurry."
Zeng Ying is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai platform, not afraid of the fish of these lost dogs.
Regarding Qin Zuoming's words, Zeng Ying thought that it was just the sharp artillery in his hand, and he had to rely on people to fight a war after all.
Arrows rained down on the river for a while, and the targets of the small fishing boats of the Great Western Army were not very good to shoot, especially with shields, like straw boats borrowing arrows.
There was occasionally a muffled grunt from the small fishing boats, but as long as it wasn't the kind of heavy arrows of the Qing army that hit the vital parts of the front door.
The soldier was covered in armor, and he was fearless with a dozen arrows stuck in his body, and it would not even affect his movements.
"Sortie."
Zeng Ying saw that the soldiers of Onishi had landed ashore, so he ordered Li Dingchong, Hu Mingfeng, and Li Zhanchun to lead the troops into battle.
The two sides come and go, and the officers and soldiers gradually lose up.
On the one hand, it is the Great Western Army, which is desperate to survive, and on the other hand, it is the official army that wants to take advantage of the chaos to strengthen its own strength.
The will to fight on both sides is not at the same level.
Li Dingchong and the others were not in a good battle, Zeng Ying frowned, at this time, he saw the Sun Zi banner on the other side of the river began to move across the river to reinforce it.
Because Liu Wenxiu had already led the army to gain a firm foothold on the north bank, Sun Kewang immediately led people to follow.
"Let's go, Lao Tzu is going to kill Sun Kewang in person today, completely breaking their thoughts."
Zeng Ying was good at fighting and his personal courage was not weak, so he hurriedly went down the city and boarded the big ship.
Sun Kewang, who leaned over and hid under the shield, saw that the big ship of the officers and soldiers on the other side began to move, and he understood Zeng Ying's thoughts.
As long as the big ship rushes over, these armored soldiers fall into the river, and don't think about floating.
Sun Kewang looked left and right, and found that there was a small island in the middle of the river not far away, and he ordered people to row over quickly, at least to attract targets for others.
As long as there are enough people rushing over, coupled with the response of Neiying, the Great Western Army will definitely be able to fight a way out.
"Wenxuan, you are superb in archery." Sun Kewang stopped the lame general Bai Wenxuan from getting off the boat: "I'll attract Zeng Ying in a while, and you will shoot him wantonly, understand?" ”
"General, this matter is too dangerous, or I will pretend to be you, and you will kill him."
"Fart, my archery skills are not as good as yours, so it's settled."
Sun Kewang immediately jumped off the boat, stood on the island in the middle of the river, and ordered someone to erect his own Sun Ziya flag.
In order to attract Zeng Ying's idea of capturing the thief and capturing the king first.
Killing the enemy commander is what the other party wants to do the most.
When Bai Wenxuan saw that Sun Kewang was creating such an opportunity, he also understood that he was not speechless, just waiting for the fleeting opportunity.
Zeng Ying led the big boat and began to ram the small fishing boats of the Great Western Army, and many soldiers fell into the river one after another, because of the armor, they couldn't float at all.
Especially if he went to Sun Kewang, if the eldest brother died in battle, the blow to the Great Western Army would be really not small.
It is extremely easy for the subordinates to waver in their minds to follow to the end, and betrayal and escape will become more and more frequent.
When Li Dingguo saw this scene, he was anxious and immediately ordered someone to blow the horn.
Yu Chong, who was far away on the other side of the river, had been paying close attention to the situation on the battlefield, and he hoped that the people on the other side would recognize the flag he had displayed.
In this way, it was good to cooperate with the battle, and finally the horn sounded, Yu Chong nodded secretly, and then ordered the soldiers to light torches and rush into the Ming army camp and light fires everywhere.
As a result, the rear of the Ming army caught fire and was in chaos!
Even Zeng Ying's wife couldn't suppress the rebels.
"Zeng Ying, grandpa is here."
Sun Kewang stood on the small island in the middle of the river and shouted loudly, intending to attract his attention.
Zeng Ying originally saw a fire in the rear and wanted to return, but he saw Sun Kewang laughing wildly in front of him.
If you don't kill him, how can you lock in victory?
Zeng Ying ordered the big ship to fence off Sun Kewang's small island in the middle of the river, and he had to take care of him no matter what.
"Sun Kewang." Zeng Ying stood on the bow of the boat, holding a spear and yelling: "Don't be rampant, the master will take your dog's life." ”
As soon as Zeng Ying's voice fell, there was a sudden arrow.
Shot Zeng Ying, fell into the water from the boat, struggled and couldn't struggle, couldn't float at all.
Sun Kewang watched Zeng Ying's arrow fall into the water, and couldn't help but shout excitedly: "Zeng Ying is dead, Zeng Ying is dead." ”
In addition, the guards on the boat took off their armor and hurriedly jumped into the water to save people.
For a while, the place where Zeng Ying fell into the water was like a dumpling.
The news of Zeng Ying's death soon spread to the entire battlefield, and the fire in the rear camp of the Ming army disrupted the morale of the army.
The Great Western Army thus opened the gap, broke through the Futu Pass, rushed out of Yubei County in Sichuan, and rushed into Guizhou without stopping.
Gege Party
