Chapter 232: Attacking the Black Demon God
The annihilation of the cavalry of the old Hui was definitely a huge blow to the rebels, and the rebels who were raging in Dali County began to restrain their behavior, not so unscrupulous, in order to grab two eggs, they ran two miles to rob a farmer.
The leader of the rebel army also deliberately restrained his men and horses, and wanted to gather in groups, not to disperse, especially at night, when everyone was not allowed to leave the camp, and the number of night patrol soldiers increased from about 100 to more than 1,000.
The Black God and Luo Rucai were really scared.
And the news also spread to Baishui County at this time, and Li Zicheng, who was training the mandarin duck formation in Baishui County, was also shocked for a long time after hearing the news, and asked his men and horses vigorously about the authenticity of the news.
His subordinates repeatedly emphasized that there was no mistake, the news was absolutely accurate, and Li Zicheng was stupid, and it took a long time before he asked someone to summon his nephew Li Guo and deputy commander Liu Zongmin to come to the Chinese army camp to discuss the military situation.
Soon Li Guo, who was in charge of training the spearmen, and Liu Zongmin, who was training the vanguard army, rushed back, and when they arrived at the camp of the Chinese army, Li Zicheng drove out all the people in the camp tent, leaving only three people, and asked Li Shichao to stand at the door of the camp tent and not let the rest of the people in.
Li Zicheng got straight to the point and said directly: "Do you all know that Lao Hui has been wiped out by the whole army?" ”
Hearing this, Liu Zongmin nodded and said, "Someone told me on the way here." ”
Li Guo nodded and said, "My battalion is also spreading this matter. ”
Li Zicheng looked at Li Shichao, and Li Shichao said: "No one in the guard camp has passed on this matter. ”
Hearing this, Li Zicheng was very satisfied with the pro-guard battalion, this kind of thing is not a good thing to spread in the battalion, and it is not easy for the pro-guard battalion to be able to stand alone.
Li Zicheng nodded and said, "I summoned you here this time to ask your opinion, who killed the cavalry of Lao Huihui?" ”
Hearing this, Li Guo spoke first: "Lao Huihui's combat power is still very strong, I have seen his cavalry, there is no bad race, if you want to annihilate this cavalry, at least you have to dispatch several times as many people and horses, can dispatch such men and horses, except for the imperial court, who else?" ”
"Lantian Li Chaosheng!"
Liu Zongmin spoke directly at this time, he had fought with Li Chaosheng, and knew Li Chaosheng's strength, a few years ago, Li Chaosheng's strength was difficult to destroy a thousand cavalry, but after these years of development, it is impossible and possible.
Liu Zongmin said: "I just carefully inquired about the scene where Lao Hui returned to the scene where they were exterminated, Xuzhuang Town, there is a long official road full of trees. ”
Liu Zongmin took out a map at this time and pointed out the road in Xuzhuang Town on the map, followed by Liu Zongmin and said: "This kind of terrain is very suitable for ambushes, and it is very in line with the ambush standards of the Lantian Legion. ”
Hearing this, Li Zicheng said: "Then what you mean must be Lantian County?" ”
Liu Zongmin said: "Eight or nine is not far from ten, and other forces either have no strength, or they have the strength to be adjusted." ”
Hearing this, Li Zicheng looked at Li Shichao, who was standing at the door, and said, "Stone, what is your opinion?" ”
Li Shichao smiled and said, "I don't know, if you let me lead the troops to charge, it's okay, this analysis of the situation, you can come." ”
When Li Zicheng heard this, he smiled and didn't ask Li Shichao, and followed with Liu Zongmin: "What do you think we are going to do next?" ”
Liu Zongmin heard this and said: "I think we should enter Dali County, Lantian County has always liked to break through each other, I think we should unite with the Black Demon God and Luo Rucai to attack Lantian County together, none of our men and horses are enough to enter Lantian County." ”
Li Guo heard this and said: "Impossible, even if we are willing to join forces with Luo Rucai and the Black Evil God, Luo Rucai and the Black God will not be willing to join forces with us, they don't know the strength of Lantian County, although the old Hui cavalry was destroyed, but after all, it is only a thousand people, they are now more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and their horizons are high, they will not join forces with us, he is afraid that we will swallow them." ”
Hearing this, Liu Zongmin frowned and said: "Even if we don't join the army, we shouldn't be too far away from them, it's too far away, if they are defeated and collapsed by Lantian, we can't accept their rout in time, it's not cost-effective." ”
Hearing this, Li Zicheng nodded and said, "Zong Min is right, we are about to enter Dali County, and we can't let them all eat this meat." ”
Li Zicheng said, and at this moment, Li Shichao suddenly shouted: "What person, the commander is discussing the military situation, who dares to approach the big tent of the Chinese army." ”
Listening to Li Shichao's loud shout, Li Zicheng was also alert, and then he listened to the people outside: "Lord Qiqi, the Black God Commander has a messenger here." ”
"The Black God?"
Hearing this, Li Zicheng was stunned, looked at Liu Zongmin and Li Guo, the two also glanced at each other, and looked at Li Zicheng, at this time Li Zicheng said: "Please." ”
Li Shichao heard this: "Come in." ”
Soon a man with a scarred face in black clothes came in, entered the big tent of the Chinese army, knelt down on one leg and said, "I've seen Commander Li." ”
"Well, what did the Black God ask you to come to me?"
Li Zicheng looked at the scar-faced man and asked, and the scar-faced man took out a letter from his arms when he heard this: "Our commander invited the adults to enter Dali County, and specially set aside the rich households in two towns to supplement the military salary for Commander Li. ”
Hearing this, Li Zicheng smiled and said, "Your family commander is really generous." ”
The scar-faced man smiled at this time: "The commander of my family often says that he and Commander Li are brothers, and after entering Dali County, the commander of my family often worries about whether the commander will be well fed and warmly clothed in Baishui County, so he will leave the two richest towns, and we will not be allowed to plunder, only leave the commander to supplement the military salary, this is the intention of the commander of my family." ”
Li Zicheng heard this and said: "Okay, I already know the intention of your family commander, tell your family commander, and tomorrow my army will enter Dali County." ”
Hearing this, the scar man smiled and said, "In this way, the commander of my family will be very happy." ”
Li Zicheng also smiled: "I'm also very happy." ”
After saying this, Li Zicheng said: "Someone, bring the messenger down, and greet him with good wine and food." ”
"Yes."
The two guards accompanied the messenger and went down, and after going down, Li Zicheng looked at the gate of the tent with gloomy eyes and said, "This black god should die." ”
Liu Zongmin looked at Li Zicheng in surprise when he heard this: "Why did the commander say this." ”
Li Zicheng said: "I won't say anything if he wants to use me as a shield, but Lao Tzu needs him to set aside two towns for me to solve the military salary, and his heart can be punished." ”
Hearing this, Li said: "This black god is slamming the door, he and Luo Rucai have robbed ten towns these days, there are a total of seventeen towns in Dali County, and they are only willing to take out two of them to us, and call them Huazi?" ”
Liu Zongmin also got angry when he heard this: "Thinking about it like this, this black god should indeed be cut by a thousand knives and broken into thousands of corpses. ”
The three thieves said so, but they didn't know, but tonight, the content of their conversation today had been completely placed on Li Chaosheng's desk.
Li Chaosheng looked at the information on the desk and said with a smile: "This Liu Zongmin is a character, and he can see at once that this is what we did." ”
Gu Zi on the side who heard this said: "This Liu Zongmin was taught so badly by us back then, so he naturally understands some of our combat habits, which is not surprising, but division commander, Li Zicheng's troops are about to enter Dali County, what should we do?" ”
Hearing this, Li Chaosheng smiled and said: "Come on, come on, anyway, if a wolf comes in, you have to kill a dog first." ”
"Do you want to do it tonight?"
Gu Zi stared at Li Chaosheng at this time, and Li Chaosheng said, "Li Chaolong's brigade has moved to the vicinity of Anren Town. ”
"Li Chaohu blocked the exit of Anren Town, it is not easy for the two brigades to annihilate the 30,000 rabble of a black god, why don't these rebels know about unity, they are united, we can still spend some means."
Li Chaosheng said, Gu Zi heard this and said: "The righteous army are all reckless heroes, although they seem to be nothing, but they are very arrogant, and they can't unite. ”
Li Chaosheng thought about the future, at that time, if Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong joined forces, whether it was the Ming Dynasty or the Manchu Qing Dynasty, they had to weigh it, instead of watching the two of them fight separately and be broken through.
This is a very helpless thing, because everyone wants to be the king, and there is only one throne, they are all arrogant people, who obeys whom?
This is also one of the reasons why Li Chaosheng doesn't like the rebels, he doesn't have a sense of the overall situation, and he is too self-conscious.
The Black Demon God is currently cowering in Anren Town, and the entire town farmers have been almost destroyed, either forced to join the rebel army, or they will be killed by the rebel army, and when the army comes, there are only two choices: death or thief.
Moreover, in the past two days, the Black God was frightened by the annihilation of Ma Shouying's cavalry, so he retreated in Anren Town and did not move, just waiting for Li Zicheng's army to come and disperse the target.
At this time, outside Anren Town, Li Chaolong led the troops to look at the town in front of him with lights on, his eyes were full of desire to kill, he had been suffocated in the past few days, if the division commander hadn't allowed him to attack, he would have led people to kill these arrogant guys.
An army that is inferior to grass cobs, a group of guys who dare to call the righteous army with a hoe and a rake, it is better to be honestly captured by themselves, so that they can be transformed by labor, and they can also be a farmer, honestly plant two acres of land, and make some contributions to their hometown.
At this time, Li Chaolong looked at the 4,000 army behind him, including 2,000 pure firearms troops and 2,000 mandarin duck formations, Li Chaolong looked at An Renzhen, and listened to the laughter of the thief soldiers: "What time is it?" ”
Then the soldier said, "Half an hour away." ”
Li Chaolong said: "Then wait a little longer, and when they all sleep, let's fight again." ”
When the soldier heard this, he said, "Yes." ”
Li Chaolong continued to wait, listening to the laughter coming from Anren Town, the rebels, especially the rebels of the Black Evil God, have a fart military discipline, a group of bandits and bandits, taking advantage of the turmoil of the situation, to join the Righteous Army, under the banner of the Righteous Army, doing worse things than the bandits back then, this is the army of the Black Evil God.
This kind of army fights with the wind, it is very awesome, as long as the tailwind is revealed, it is really brave and unparalleled, and if you rush forward, if you rush slowly, there will be no spoils.
So it seems extremely powerful, invincible.
If it's a headwind, it's really a thousand miles, and you don't even have to fight by yourself, your own people can trample each other to death, that's really a model of vulnerability.
Li Chaolong lurked outside Anren Town with a large army at this time, and the entire army of 4,000 people did not even cough, and everyone stayed silently in place, looking at this Anren Town, like an incomparably fierce beast, staring at the lamb to be slaughtered.
Gradually, there was no noise in Anren Town, Li Chaolong felt that it was almost there, waved his hand, and the army moved forward silently.
In Anren Town, a group of volunteer patrols yawned and complained: "Boss, everyone is eating fragrant food in the town, drinking spicy food, hugging their mother-in-law, and making babies." ”
"A few of our brothers are outside, suffering from the cold, suffering from the cold, where can we be reasonable."
"Okay, don't say a word, didn't you hear anyone say that the cavalry of the old Hui was killed? What should we do if we don't wake up and let people sneak attack? ”
At this time, the patrol leader said, and after hearing this, one person said indifferently: "Chief, whoever sneaks up on this big night is asleep." ”
"yes, yes, boss, we're sleepy."
Hearing this, the patrol leader said: "Okay, okay, patrol again, let's find a place to get the cat up, this ghost weather is strangely cold at night." ”
"Hey, good."
Hearing this, the patrol soldier immediately echoed the voice, followed by a patrol soldier and said: "Hey, let's talk about some refreshment, that Li Laocai's daughter is really good, white, run, but energetic." ”
"My grass, you got it yesterday?"
At this time, a person said enviously, and after hearing this, the patrol soldier showed off: "My cousin is in charge of the escort team, yesterday I went to find my cousin, my cousin and their team happened to be assigned to the eldest daughter of Li Laocai's family, I took the opportunity to take advantage, hehe~"
"Hey, your mother, why don't you call the brothers if you have this good thing, Lao Tzu and a few brothers were assigned to a village woman yesterday, and they were very sloppy, and they almost bit off Zhang Laoga's guy, and scared Lao Tzu to kill the village woman with a knife."
"I'll go, so fierce? That brother should pay attention to safety in the future, don't be bitten by these crazy women to inherit the family. ”
"Yes, yes, be careful, be careful."
The patrolmen were discussing, in fact, men were idle and talking about women, and where did they come from the rebels, they could only talk about the women they had recently robbed, otherwise everyone would not have anything in common.
These are just some duckweed that goes with the flow, and they don't know that day they die, but of course they can be happy day by day.
Stomp ......
The patrolmen were laughing and laughing, when they suddenly heard a sound of neat footsteps, and the patrol leader frowned, drew his knife and shouted, "Who? ”
The men immediately shut down, and then brought torches and shone them into the darkness, and the torches dispelled the darkness, and at last the patrol saw a figure, a man riding a tall horse, but before he could shout, the next moment the whole person was frightened, because behind the horseman was a procession of troops with no end in sight.
