Chapter Ninety-Seven: Stone Breaking (3) [Asking for a monthly ticket, asking for a reward]
If it's all on the bright side, there's no talk of a dark guard.
Their power should be presented in the silent immersion of the enemy.
And not head-on.
Of course, this is the first time they have gathered to fight, and it is certain that something will go wrong.
That's why he didn't get a heavier punishment.
Otherwise, just the disobedience on the battlefield and the cutting of both of them should be.
At the same time, punishing these two cronies around him can also deter Han Qin and Chen Guang, and they can't really make them feel that they are so fooled.
Otherwise, when encountering another battle in the future, disobedience to orders in any link may have an immeasurable impact on the entire battle situation.
Just when Qi Heng successfully captured Jinling City, and began to purge military affairs and control the entire Jinling City in the city.
On the other side, under the city of Chuzhou.
Timur led the army to arrive at the city of Chuzhou, facing the sun, looking at the empty scene above the city of Chuzhou at this moment, and his brows were solemn.
"What are they going to do?"
"Why is there no one to defend the city?"
Just when Tokhtar was in doubt, a soldier who had gone to investigate suddenly ran in front of Tokhtar and replied: "Yuxiangguo, there are no defenders in the city, and there is no trace of the people, and the whole city is empty. ”
"What?!"
Tokhtar frowned in disbelief.
The matter of their attack on Quanjiao County should have reached the ears of the righteous army a long time ago, how could they have no one to defend.
Could it be that the 150,000 army, knowing that he could not stop himself, ran away?
But even if they were willing to abandon the city of Chuzhou, which they had finally captured, could it be that the people in this city would follow and flee without complaint?
Their houses and businesses are all here.
Thinking of this, Tokhtar couldn't help but want to see it with his own eyes, so he immediately said: "Command the army, enter the city!" ”
The 150,000 troops of Detach entered the city of Chuzhou in a mighty way.
At the same time, a scout team also began to head towards Huanggang and Haozhou City in the north of Chuzhou, apparently Tokhtar did not believe that the people of the entire Chuzhou City were so willing to follow the rebels into the mountains like Liu Futong in the north.
Soon.
As the scouts in Tokhtar's army began to scout around.
A lot of information is being collected and gathered in front of Tokhtar.
At this time, he was in the hall of the Chuzhou County Ya, listening to the report of his scouts, and said in disbelief: "You said that in the entire city of Chuzhou, all the people and thieves disappeared overnight?" ”
"Not a single one?"
Although the scout also felt incredible, the reality was that he could only nod his head.
Sitting in his chair, his mind began to think carefully.
What tricks are these rebels going to play?
Now he has an army of 150,000 under his command, and there is no room for failure.
Every step has to be calculated.
Just as Tokhtar was thinking about what the hell the rebels in Huaixi were doing, a scout who had gone to the north to investigate suddenly ran madly in front of Tokhtar, not even caring about the guards at the door.
Looking at his flustered appearance, Totoku frowned.
"What's the matter, panic."
The scout hurriedly shouted at Totoku: "Xiangguo, we have detected the movement of the soldiers and civilians of Chuzhou in the north, they are heading in the direction of Huanggang City, and they should be going to Huanggang City to converge. ”
"According to the investigation, they have a total of 100,000 people at the moment, of which except for the 50,000 army, the rest are the people of Chuzhou and various counties!"
Hearing this, he immediately realized something, and stood up with his whole body.
"It seems that the thief soldiers want to give up the unity of the Chuzhou soldiers, but they are just ..... Why did they choose the small county town of Huanggang and abandon the two state cities of Chuzhou and Haozhou? ”
While getting rid of his doubts, the general on the side hesitated, but finally couldn't help but say: "Xiangguo, don't worry about why the thieves are gathering in Huanggang for the time being." At this moment, the 100,000 soldiers and civilians of Chuzhou are in the field, if we send cavalry to pursue, as long as we can delay their time, when our army arrives, under the head-on battle, how will it be the opponent of my 150,000 army, and then it will be a mess, and we can take advantage of the victory to pursue. ”
"The 50,000 troops guarding Chuzhou are the most important combat force under Zhu Yuanzhang's command, if they are defeated, Zhu Yuanzhang will be gone, and we will be able to capture the entire Huaixi."
Hearing the general's words, Tokhtar also immediately realized that this fighter plane, and after roughly thinking that there would be no conspiracy in it, he immediately shouted to the generals below: "Borli listens to the order!" ”
"The subordinates are here!"
"Immediately order you to command five thousand cavalry to pursue the Chuzhou rebels, remember, be sure to block their advance, delay time and wait for the army to arrive!"
"Subordinates take orders!"
Borri was ordered to get up, and in a few arrows he stepped out of the hall and headed towards the barracks.
At the same time, Tokhtar was not idle, and immediately said: "The army is out!" Be sure to take down the 50,000 rebels in Chuzhou! ”
Many generals in the field agreed: "Yes! ”
Not long after entering the city, the army of Toktok restarted and headed in the direction of Huanggang City in the north.
At the same time, the movement of the detachment army also reached the ears of Zhu Yuanzhang in Huanggang City at the same time.
But Zhu Yuanzhang, who was in Huanggang City at this time, couldn't do anything, and could only hope that Xu Da and the others who came from Chuzhou would be faster.
Of course, the movement of the detachment army in Chuzhou City also reached the ears of Xu Da and others who were hurrying at this time under Zhu Yuanzhang's order.
Xu Da and the others, who were walking together, were a little anxious when they heard the news.
But there is no way, there are not only soldiers in today's army.
The soldiers were able to follow their orders and march quickly, but the people were different.
The most important thing is that these people have their entire family belongings in their hands.
Some even carried some miscellaneous items, and some pushed wooden carts full of things.
In such a situation, how can it be fast?
But they didn't dare to tell the people about the Yuan cavalry chasing behind, and once it spread, no one knew what would happen.
Maybe some of the people were scared and began to flee in all directions, and then the great disaster came.
Zhou Nian, who was gathered with Xu Da and others at this moment, stood aside and silently listened to the discussion of the generals in front of him, and after thinking about it, Zhou Nian suddenly spoke: "Several generals, Zhou Nian has a solution, but I don't know what the effect is, let me try, how about it?" ”
Listening to Zhou Nian's words, Tang and Xu Da and the others glanced at each other.
Now that the situation is urgent, no matter whether this method is useful or not, it can only be used as a dead horse doctor.
It really didn't work, so they could only simply abandon these people and lead the army back to Huanggang City directly.
Compared with being heavily punished by Zhu Yuanzhang after going back like this, it doesn't hurt to let Zhou Nian try, so he said: "Now the situation is urgent, although Lord Zhou tries, we are responsible for any problems." ”
Hearing this, Zhou Nian no longer hesitated.
