Chapter 352 I wanted to run, but there was no door
In this way, a large number of displaced people were registered by the governors of the major provinces, asking for their names, places of origin, and other relevant information, and brought back to their respective territories.
Not to mention that the composition of this group of displaced people under Zhang Xianzhong is quite complicated, there are all of them, there are the Sichuan people who Zhang Xianzhong attacked Sichuan and plundered, there are the people of the two lakes who were collected during the period of the two lakes, and the refugees from Shandong and Henan who joined in by themselves, it can be said that the composition is very complicated.
But these don't matter, Lantian is originally a big dye vat, there are not a few people in Tiannan and Haibei, and there are no more people, and even if there are more people, when they arrive in Lantian, there is only one kind of people, that is, the people of Lantian.
The great cause of the displaced people is in full swing, and the battle here in Tongqian Pass has also reached a fever pitch, six thousand displaced people who do not know whether they are alive or dead have been bombarded by Lantian's artillery, seeing the corpses everywhere, Sun Kewang frowned, Lantian's artillery is so powerful, six thousand homeless people have not touched the root of the city wall, this is simply terrible.
And on the city wall, Li Dezhen's face sank like water, his face was pale, after all, Li Dezhen was not an executioner who killed people without blinking, after a series of massacres, Li Dezhen hated these rogues so much, driving the people, such as driving cattle and horses, they didn't even pay to collect the troops after so many rogues, but drove the remaining homeless people to rush forward, without the slightest mercy, they were simply a group of beasts.
The soldiers on the city wall did not speak, although the purpose of being a soldier was to kill, but killing the enemy, the thief, brought glory and satisfaction, but the slaughter of these homeless people brought indescribable anger and humiliation.
This is actually a good thing, and it is also the emotion that Lantian intends to train soldiers, after all, in this era when soldiers are not as good as bandits, killing good and risky achievements, such a different army is the foundation of Lantian's roots, if there is no such an army, Li Chaosheng needs to be careful.
After the rogue charge just now, Sun Kewang and Li Dezhen's department entered a quiet period of tacit understanding, Sun Kewang did not want to use his own troops and horses to charge and consume his core strength because the homeless people in his hands were all used up, and Li Dezhen was digesting the negative emotions of slaughtering 6,000 homeless people, and was also waiting for Sun Kewang's next wave of attack.
As for taking the initiative, Li Dezhen didn't want to do it, after all, the purpose of their war this time was to prevent Sun Kewang from entering Lantian County, as for taking the initiative to attack, it was completely unnecessary, Li Chaosheng was not in a hurry to end the war of this generation, and it didn't take much effort to recuperate Li Dezhen's 10,000 troops in Ankang, and it was also helpful for military training.
After all, even if you stay in the camp in Tanggou Town, Lantian still needs to consume food and grass, and training also needs to consume guns and ammunition, and Lantian can support such an internal war without any burden.
In comparison, the most valuable thing in Lantian is human life, no one in Lantian is superfluous, everyone's life is unique, Lantian needs everyone's efforts, at this time, the original words of the county honor.
Therefore, if you can stick to it, you can stick to it, the Lantian army rarely fights the war of active attack, and the Lantian army's favorite is the defensive war, it can be said that in terms of defense, the Lantian army is invincible in the world.
Sun Kewang looked at the gray city pass in front of him, his eyes were full of jealousy, obviously this is an inconspicuous small city, why is it solid in the hands of Lantian, it is more difficult to attack than Zhu Yuanzhang's hometown and Fengyang Mansion.
"Grand Commander."
At this time, the military advisor came to Sun Kewang and whispered: "Great Commander, the displaced people have almost consumed, and our grain and grass are only enough for us to eat for one day, we should immediately return to the army to conquer Zhuxi County and replenish the grain and grass in the army."
Sun Kewang glanced at the military advisor when he heard this, and said, "Ai Nengqi, what do you mean by Liu Wenxiu?" ”
Hearing this, the military advisor said: "After the two commanders saw the power of Lantian's artillery and muskets just now, they no longer have the idea of fighting hard, but they haven't received the order of the grand commander, so they can't take the lead in withdrawing." ”
Sun Kewang heard this, looked at the military advisor and said, "Is there really no way to lay down this copper coin?" ”
The military advisor sighed and said: "Lantian firearms are powerful, the soldiers are brave, and there are natural dangers of barriers, if you want to win this level, I am afraid that it will take twenty times to fight the enemy to have hope." ”
"Twenty times? An army of 200,000? ”
Sun Kewang's eyes widened, and the military advisor nodded and said: "It's still equipment refining, at least it can catch up with the five thousand elites under the commander, if it is according to our normal standards, a soldier with a red tassel gun is considered the main force, then it needs more, and there is no possibility of taking it down at all." ”
"This, how can this battle be so difficult?"
Sun Kewang said weakly, and then raised his hand and said: "Pass on my military order, suspend the siege of the city, turn to Zhuxi County, and grab grain." ”
"Yes."
Sun Kewang decided to withdraw the army for many reasons, the main reason is three points, the first is that he really can't defeat the Lantian army, especially when a large number of displaced people have fled.
Second, there is no food in the army, if you fight hard, when today's morale is exhausted, it is likely to be a mutiny, don't think that the rogue is a monolith, the rogue is the easiest to mutiny, especially after there is no food, they are the rogue because they want to eat, you have no food now, who do you fool to work for you.
Third, it is Zhang Xianzhong's ambiguous attitude, the military adviser gave Sun Kewang a very reasonable analysis, Sun Kewang thought about it carefully, Zhang Xianzhong is indeed ready to accept the signs of the imperial court's Zhao'an, since Zhang Xianzhong wants to be Zhao'an, what kind of life is he fighting, leave the opportunity for Li Dingguo.
With these three points, Sun Kewang withdrew decisively, without the slightest hesitation, the army quickly withdrew, looking at Sun Kewang's withdrawal, Li Dezhen's eyes flashed a trace of fierceness, can't let them retreat like this, if they retreat like this, the soldiers will definitely feel uncomfortable, after all, after fighting for a long time, they just slaughtered a bunch of homeless people, which will leave a shadow in the hearts of the soldiers.
Thinking of this, Li Dezhen glanced at Li Dewu, the commander of the First Brigade behind him, Dewu and he had been friends since childhood, and at this time, with a pair of eyes, he said: "Division commander." ”
Li Dezhen said: "Sun Kewang wants to withdraw, we can't let him withdraw so comfortably, I decided to send a force to bite them in the back, at least some of them will be bitten to death, as for how much can be bitten to death, it depends on our ability." ”
"Commander, I'll go."
Li Dewu took the initiative to ask for help at this time, and Li Dezhen heard this and said: "This task is very arduous, maybe there will be danger." ”
When Li Dewu heard this, he said: "Rest assured, teacher, I am mentally prepared. ”
Hearing this, Li Dezhen nodded and said, "Okay, then you go, Dewu, I'll wait for you to come back and drink the celebration wine." ”
The two of them said here, and Li Chaomeng said: "Okay, don't be numb with your brothers, this task is a part of our special brigade, damn, we couldn't help in the defensive battle just now, but we can suffocate Lao Tzu, this time Lao Tzu will be killed." ”
Hearing this, Li Dezhen said: "Uncle Mengzi, you? ”
Li Chaomeng said: "Don't worry, I have experience in pursuit battles." ”
Hearing this, Li Dezhen said: "Okay, be careful." ”
"Okay, you take care of the copper coin level, just guard the checkpoint, and leave the rest to me."
Hearing this, Li Dezhen nodded and said, "Then it's fortunate." ”
Li Chaomeng nodded and looked at Li Dewu and said: "Dewu, don't be like an eggplant, I won't rob your main attack, you will lead a large army to pursue the miscellaneous fish in a while, and I will lead the cavalry to chase the big fish." ”
"Ah, Uncle Mengzi, do you want to go deep alone?"
Li Dewu stared at Li Chaomeng, Li Chaomeng smiled and said: "It's not a lone army, I will lead the two hundred special brigades under my command to charge forward with cavalry in a while, chasing and killing big fish, you just follow behind to chase and kill ordinary rogues, let's take care of each other." ”
Li Dewu heard this: "Uncle Mengzi, you are too dangerous." ”
Li Chaomeng laughed fiercely: "It's okay, what can a group of miscellaneous fish do to me." ”
Li Chaomeng's status is very high, although he is only the captain of the special brigade, and there are only more than 200 descendants under his hands, but the special brigade is directly led by Li Chaosheng, and Li Chaomeng's identity has always been on par with the four masters, and even higher than the identity of some people, such as Li Chaolong, Li Chaohu is a brother and brother to Li Chaomeng, and Li Dezhen and Shi Dalei are both younger generations, when Li Chaomeng was the platoon commander, many people were still soldiers under him.
Therefore, Li Chaomeng's identity is very detached, and Li Chaosheng also gave Li Chaomeng the capital to pass the waves in Tongqian, after all, such a checkpoint, Li Dezhen and Li Chaomeng were sent, and Li Dezhen was not given a military order to restrain Li Chaomeng, which is almost equivalent to acquiescing to letting Li Chaomeng act recklessly.
And the reason why Li Chaosheng is like this is because of dealing with the rogues, Li Chaosheng can hardly imagine what danger Li Chaomeng will have, after all, the mainstream weapons of the rogues are still cold weapons, and for Li Chaomeng, who wears a stab-proof vest, cold weapons, he can chase a bunch of rogue soldiers alone, and he will not fall behind, this is Li Chaomeng's strength.
A man with invincible cold weapons.
Sun Kewang's army slowly retreated, and at this time, Li Dewu led the men of the first brigade with muskets and bayonets, and all of them were ready to go out of the city with enough gunpowder to pursue.
On the other side, Li Chaomeng rode his own high-headed horse, this horse was brought back to him by Li Chaosheng from Guihua City, it was pitch black, but the four hooves had white hair, and it looked very handsome.
Li Chaomeng rode on the snow at this time, took the alloy rod handed over by his subordinates, a smile appeared on his face, and he looked at his subordinates who had changed into riding clothes and were fully armed, and said: "Brothers, defending the city is not something that our special brigade does, but this kind of army takes the rank of general, this is what our good men should do, the enemy has been frightened by us, they are fleeing, and the combat effectiveness is not one in ten, this is a good time for us to make contributions, brothers, follow me and kill the enemy." ”
"Oooh!"
The people in the special brigade were all screaming at this time, listening to the shouts here, Li Dewu couldn't help twitching his nose with envy, he was really envious, the people in the special brigade were all crazy, and each of them was the main one who was excited when he saw blood.
The soldiers of the special brigade are the king of soldiers, which is recognized by all legions.
However, at this time, Li Dewu didn't want to weaken his momentum, and shouted to his soldiers at this time: "Brothers, we held back our anger just now when we defended the city, and at this time, the Liukou still wanted to retreat with peace of mind, so I just said three words: Don't agree, what does he treat our brothers for, Yeju?" If you want to go up, you can go if you don't want to go, grandma, cheer up Lao Tzu, follow Lao Tzu for a while, kill their dogs, and avenge the homeless people who died in vain under the city. ”
"Revenge, revenge."
Listening to Li Dewu's words, the soldiers also screamed, Li Chaomeng glanced over, the corners of his mouth curled, this kid is good, and his mobilization ability is also top-notch.
Li Chaomeng thought about it and looked back at the soldiers of his special brigade, at this time they had already ridden the war horses one by one, these war horses were the best war horses on the grassland, and many of them were transported from Uszang, not Mongolian bantams, but Uszang's kind of big horses.
This kind of horse is not even equipped with Wang Guixiang's cavalry brigade, but Li Chaomeng's special brigade has one horse for everyone, and the advantages and disadvantages of this kind of horse are as obvious as that of Mongolian horses.
The advantage is that this kind of horse is big, explosive, fast sprint, the disadvantage is that the endurance is not good, suitable for short-distance sprints, not suitable for long-distance trekking, the front charge of this horse is better than the Mongolian horse, thousands of miles of running, or the Mongolian horse is better.
After all, Genghis Khan relied on Mongolian horses to lay the first territory of China, which shows that this Mongolian horse still has his irreplaceable advantages, but Li Chaomeng's special brigade is positioned as a special operation with a quick victory, and they are more suitable for these high-headed horses.
At this time, all the people of the special brigade were wearing Lantian military uniforms, stab-proof vests inside, and special helmets on their heads to protect vital points, and their hands had been replaced with cavalry-specific long-handled horse pistols, and a pair of compound bows were hung on the horseback.
Therefore, the cavalry generally wears a compound bow, and the shooting speed of the compound bow is much faster than changing bullets, and if it is a large-scale charge, even a bow and arrow are not used, but a long weapon, what you want is to rush to the enemy camp as quickly as possible, as long as the cavalry rushes into the infantry camp, it is a burst of indiscriminate killing.
Cavalry against infantry, that is, crushing, without any unexpected crushing.
Li Chaomeng put on his helmet, in fact, he didn't want to bring it, but if he didn't bring it, his lieutenant would return to him, and Ma Shouying would tell Li Chaosheng, and then he would be thinking that he would not be so free.
By the way, let's talk about Li Chaomeng's deputy general here, Ma Shouying, that is, the old Huihui, when Wang Jiayin sent five people to attack Lantian County, these five people were Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai, Black God, and Ma Shouying, among which the Black God was killed by Li Chaolong, Luo Rucai was caught and tried by the people, Ma Shouying was captured alive by Li Chaomeng, and was thrown into the construction site of the big reservoir to work as a coolie for a year, and was found by Li Chaomeng, and joined Li Chaomeng's special brigade under some persuasion and became Li Chaomeng's deputy general.
And Li Chaosheng still attaches great importance to Ma Shouying, since he became Li Chaomeng's deputy general, Li Chaosheng personally met with Ma Shouying, Ma Shouying also became discouraged about Li Chaoying's life and death, and promised Li Chaosheng to be responsible for supervising Li Chaomeng and not letting him act too recklessly.
