545 [Attack on Xi'an]
After Liu Tichun killed Dang Meng'an, he relied on the fierce soldiers to charge desperately, and the nearby Datong army was also small, so he escaped alive with all his beards and tails.
Tian Jianxiu came back with the cavalry, and ran into the routs all over the ground, so he had to continue to retract.
Not long after, the rout of the lower reaches was also brought by the cavalry.
When Liu Tichun fled back, Tian Jianxiu glanced at the troops, made a rough calculation, and suddenly felt cold in his heart.
His cavalry suffered few losses, but his infantry suffered heavy casualties.
In other words, there were too many foot soldiers who fled in rout, and many fled directly into the Nakajo Mountains in the north, not wanting to return to continue the war at all.
More and more Datong troops crossed the river and gathered troops nearby, and there were already more than 20 positions along the coast......
The Dashun infantry who were divided to block the attack gradually lost their fighting spirit, and spontaneously retreated in the direction of Fenglingdu, and the artillery even threw down the artillery and slipped away.
"Retreat to Fenglingdu first!"
Tian Jianxiu gave an order, and he could also return to defend Tongguan.
If the Datong army wanted to take Tongguan, it had to go to the narrow place in the northwest, recross the Yellow River, and then cross Weishui, so that it could go around the back of Tongguan.
Even if the Datong army trapped Tongguan, Tian Jianxiu could hold on to the pass.
There is a lot of food in Tongguan, and now the Dashun army has lost its troops, and it is no problem to hide in Tongguan and hold on for half a year.
Tian Jianxiu led the troops back to Fenglingdu and found that there were also some remnants here, and they were taking the initiative to row back to Tongguan. He was a little relieved, and ordered the whole army to cross the river, and after returning to Tongguan, he carefully counted the number of people, and there were still more than 8,000 people left.
After the Datong army occupied Fenglingdu, Liu Zhu was also counting the battle losses.
After working until the evening, the missionary Lin Ruzhao came over, and his mood seemed to be a little low: "1,094 people were killed, another 685 people were missing, and more than 1,400 people were wounded, of which 152 were seriously injured. ”
For the Datong army, this was another tragic casualty.
Liu Zhu sighed: "After the remains of the soldiers are cremated, they will be taken to Daqing to be placed in a good life, and then sent back to their hometown after the victory." ”
Daqing Pass is Pubanjin.
Tian Jianxiu did not return to Daqing Pass because of the change in terrain.
During the Jiajing period, the Guanzhong earthquake shook the Yellow River near Daqing Pass, and the river channel was shaken to the west for 30 miles. In the following decades, the river course changed repeatedly, and now it is more than ten miles west of Daqing Pass.
There used to be a chain bridge, but it was also destroyed by the earthquake.
Daqing Pass, which was built with manpower and material resources, has lost its strategic role and is standing there alone and becoming deserted.
Liu Zhu personally went to comfort the wounded soldiers, and the first one to find Wang Hui asked the military doctor: "How is General Wang's injury?" ”
The military doctor replied: "There were twelve wounds all over the body, but fortunately I was wearing armor, and none of them were fatal." However, half of his ear was bitten off by the enemy general, and a piece of flesh was bitten off his chin. ”
Wang Hui suddenly said: "It's not in the way, we are not swingers, relying on our faces to seduce the little girl." ”
"Hahahaha!"
As soon as this remark came out, it made the nearby wounded soldiers laugh nonstop.
Liu Zhu glanced over and saw the wounded, some of whom were even unconscious.
Alas, one will make all the bones wither.
In the next few days, serious wooden boats were used to transport logistics materials, and war horses were also transported to the north shore one after another.
As long as it is not disturbed by the enemy, even if the war horse is transported in the turbulent water, there will be basically no accidents, and it is a big deal to be washed further downstream.
Jiang Liang has been staying on the south bank, so as not to be killed by the enemy from Tongguan, cutting off the retreat of the Datong army and the grain route, and the military rations are not transported at one time, and if you want to fight for a few more months, you must have a steady stream of follow-up supplements.
The cavalry crossed the river first, and on the day of the engagement, the cavalry came quickly.
At noon the next day, Cao Bianjiao and Chen Tangong took the dragoons to the north.
Daqing Pass, that is, Pubanjin during the Three Kingdoms, gradually appeared in front of Chen Tangong.
There were not many defenders here, but the news that the Datong army had crossed the river had been spread by the rout.
Hearing that Tian Jianxiu was defeated, the defenders here were terrified. The dragoons were still on the other side of the river, so the defenders directly chose to surrender, and crossed the river in small boats to meet the Datong army.
There's nothing to keep, and it's useless to keep it.
Even if Tian Jianxiu divides his troops to garrison Daqing Pass, the Datong army can directly ignore it. Going up the river, you will soon reach Jiezhou and Anyi (Yuncheng), where you can easily take it, because the defenders have long been drained.
The enemy troops in Daqing Pass surrendered so simply that Cao Bianjiao and Chen Tangong couldn't believe it.
They carefully crossed the river and successfully received Daqing Pass.
This dilapidated place fell into disrepair for a long time, and the city collapsed, so the war broke out again, and the gap was hastily plugged with earth and stones.
After resting for half a day, leaving a small number of soldiers to garrison, Cao Bianjiao and Liu Tangong continued to go north with their troops.
A few miles away is Puzhou (west of Yongji), and the dragoons' horses have not run hot, when they encounter a group of people kneeling to welcome and surrender.
But it was Yin (Zhi County) of Puzhou County, who took the Puzhou gentry and went out of the city two miles to meet the Datong army.
The civilian officials under Li Zicheng had no power at all. The gentry under Li Zicheng also did not enjoy any preferential treatment. Civil officials and gentry will also be oppressed by military generals, and Li Zicheng can't control it.
It's just right that the Datong army is coming, surrender and count the ball!
"Welcome to the heavenly soldiers, the king is victorious!" The county Yin Sun Yuanen lay on the ground and led the gentry to chant in unison.
Gu/span> only one person did not kneel, he came over and said, "How precious is the Datong scholar, meet the two generals." ”
Cao Bianjiao returned the salute and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mr. Xu's person, disrespectful and disrespectful!" ”
He Qigui said: "Please leave five cavalry behind, and you can use this to form a city defense team, and there is no need to leave more Datong troops to garrison Puzhou City." Even, he could contact the gentry and provide grain and grass for the Datong army on the spot. ”
"That's good!" Chen Tangong was overjoyed.
He Qigui also said: "The land of the West River, please ask the two generals to take it quickly." As soon as the Datong army arrives, the cities will inevitably fall to the wind. ”
Cao Bianjiao and Chen Tangong did not doubt it, and immediately divided their troops into two routes and led the cavalry all the way to the north.
In October, after Puzhou, more than 10 cities, such as Jiezhou, Anyi, Linjin, Ronghe, Wanquan and Wenxi, all changed their flags and became the prefectures and counties of the Datong Imperial Court.
Fenglingdu.
Liu Zhu said to Wang Hui: "Give you a military order, can you do it?" ”
"Never give up!" Wang Hui stepped forward and said.
Liu Zhu said: "You take the wounded soldiers, hold Fenglingdu, and don't let the enemy cross the river to attack and disturb." ”
"Obey!"
Wang Hui replied loudly, and then muttered: "I'm afraid that I will die in battle, so you won't let me continue to fight." ”
"Heal your wounds before you fight." Liu Zhu comforted.
Liu Zhu took a large army and went to Puzhou to station, and he was not in a hurry to cross the Yellow River again to take Tongguan.
East of the Yellow River, west of Luliang Mountain, sandwiched in the middle is called the Xihe area. Qin and Jin, Qin and Wei, in order to compete for the Xihe region, fought an old nose war back then.
What are you doing crossing the river?
Let's take the land of the West River first!
Officials and peasants and soldiers were continuously brought in, and after receiving the city, they created and divided the land. There was no resistance, because so many people had died, and the place was already sparsely populated, and even immigrants were needed to fill the population.
Even from Henan, a division of troops was transferred over.
Tian Jianxiu had no choice but to write to Li Guo, asking Li Guo to bring troops to rescue Li Guo in Hanzhong and prevent the Datong Army from sending troops from Sichuan.
There is really no way to prevent this, the Xihe area is too narrow and long, and the flat area next to the Yellow River is only two or three hundred miles, and it is impossible to prevent the Datong army from crossing the river.
Chen Tangong went all the way north and quickly killed Hongdong County.
Cao Bianjiao successfully crossed the river in Hejin and took down Hancheng on the other side. Then he went south along the river, captured Heyang (Heyang), and killed until Chaoyi met resistance.
"Don't care about Chaoyi, this time we have to make a great contribution, let's go to Xi'an!" Cao Bianjiao has gone crazy.
Of course, it is impossible to fight directly, Cao Bianjiao led the cavalry to Chengcheng after hitting a wall in Chaoyi. The magistrate of Chengcheng surrendered immediately, Cao Bianjiao did not stay, only rested for half a day, and after a little supply, he went west to kill Baishui, and then took Pucheng.
didn't even bother to enter the city, only let the surrendered magistrate send food out, and the men and horses set off again after a little rest.
The speed at which Cao Bianjiao marched into the army was faster than the speed at which the news spread!
Because the flag was not raised, when Cao Bianjiao arrived in Xi'an with his troops, Shaanxi Prefecture Mu even thought that it was the Dashun army that came.
"Hurry up and prepare food and drink, and go out of the city with this official to work in the army!" Shaanxi Prefecture Shepherd Zeyao ordered.
The state pastor, the government yin, and the county yin are all official positions established by Li Zicheng.
As for Wang Zeyao, he served as the governor of Miyun in history, and after surrendering to Li Zicheng, he also presided over the imperial examination for Li Zicheng. Li Zicheng persuaded Wu Sangui to surrender, and it was Wang Zeyao who took Wu Xiang's letter to Shanhaiguan. Wu Sangui handed over Wang Zeyao to Dolgon, and Wang Zeyao would rather die than surrender and was killed. :.
Because Chongzhen lived a few years less, Wang Zeyao did not become the governor of Miyun, but he still surrendered in Beijing.
Moreover, Wang Zeyao felt that Li Zicheng was very benevolent and righteous, so he followed all the way and did not leave when Li Zicheng fled. He won the trust of Li Zicheng, and he was promoted all the way to govern Shaanxi, and belonged to one of the few civil officials with real power.
Cao Bianjiao was thinking about how to cheat the city, but saw that the city gate was not closed, after all, it was two or three hundred miles away from the battlefield, and Tian Jianxiu's army was blocking it in Tongguan.
Who would have thought that the Datong Army would come in a circle?
"Kill it right in!" Cao Bianjiao said with a smile.
Yin Zheng of Xi'an Mansion was on the city tower, and his face was ugly: "These arrogant soldiers and fierce generals actually entered the city in violation of the order, and His Majesty said that guest soldiers are not allowed to enter the city." ”
The official next to him said, "Why don't you close the gates?" ”
Xi'an Mansion Yin shook his head: "Don't close the door, this mansion doesn't dare to offend these killers." ”
In this way, Cao Bianjiao rushed into the city with cavalry without hindrance. The costume of the dragoons was different from other cavalrymen, and no one doubted it from beginning to end.
Wang Zeyao could distinguish it, but he didn't come to see it in person, and even the news that the "Dashun Army" came to Xi'an was reported to him by his officials.
Wang Zeyao was still urging wine and food, and Cao Bianjiao's cavalry had already killed all the way to the official residence of the state pastor.
"Master Governor, the GI has entered the city!"
"Nonsense, I said that the guest soldiers are not allowed to enter the city, and these arrogant soldiers and fierce generals are going to make trouble again!"
Wang Zeyao led people to run out of the yamen quickly, but saw a group of cavalry rushing on the street.
The old man was dumbfounded, and he was stunned for a long time and exclaimed: "This is not Your Majesty's Great Shun Army!" To provide you with the fastest update, 545 [Rush to Xi'an] free reading. :.
