Chapter 15: The Return of a Great Victory
Gao Di saw that there were only more than a thousand thieves rushing down the hillside, and his heart was settled.
Immediately allocate 10,000 light cavalry, pursue quickly, and be sure to annihilate the thief army.
20,000 horses were left to clean up the battlefield.
Guan Ningjun, who rushed over, saw the corpses of the thief army all over the mountains, and thought that his 30,000 people had not eaten the 3,000 lonely soldiers just now, and his heart was shocked.
When I saw more than 1,000 people carrying large wooden boxes on the mountainside and leading horses down the mountain, I was even more surprised.
Are these people killing all 20,000 thieves?
After the Wyvern descended the mountain, they dispersed to collect arrows.
A thousand generals rushed to Ni Yuanlu and Gao Di, and said in a loud voice: "Xiong Wei, the 27th thousand team of the Flying Dragon Army, see Lord Ni and General Gao." ”
Gao Di was shocked when he heard it, the 27th thousand-man team, why are there 26 thousand-man teams in front? When did the Holy Lord train at least 27,000 pro-guards?
Ni Yuanlu nodded, "Mr. Xiong Qian won a big victory today, and this official will definitely ask for credit for you!" ”
"Lord Xie was promoted, and there was an ambush mission in his humble position, so he retired first." When the words fell, Xiong Wei turned around and walked away, without dragging his feet at all.
Not long after, the officers of the Guanning Army saw that the so-called Flying Dragon Army had collected all the arrows, and one of them had unloaded a horse leg, put it on his back, and rode away.
When the people walked away, there was a sudden uproar in the valley.
"Did you hear it just now, it was the emperor's personal guard!"
"Hear me! It is said to be the 27th thousand. ”
"I didn't see the bow, how do you think they shot the arrows?"
"It's not bizarre, they can shoot 600 steps with each arrow, where can human beings do it!"
The officers and soldiers were like seeing the heavenly soldiers descending to earth, and they were full of curiosity and admiration for the Flying Dragon Army.
Ni Yuanlu tried to stay calm and not let herself laugh out loud.
Xin said: "The saint named the 27th Road Thousand People, and the original intention was here. With this great victory and the name of this bluff, I believe that no one in Shanhaiguan will have any dissenting intentions. ”
Gao Di looked at the Flying Dragon Army who was walking away with the horse's legs on his back, and kept wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, and the straight road was so dangerous, so dangerous.
With such elite soldiers, it is no wonder that Ni Yuanlu said this morning that he could kill more than 100,000 enemy troops.
1,000 people can easily kill 20,000, so if these 27 thousand teams come, it will not be enough to kill 540,000 enemies!
There may even be the 30th and 50th roads, and the depth of the saints is really difficult to guess.
……
Break into the military tent in the army.
Li Zicheng looked at the letter of surrender in his hand and sneered.
This Wu Sangui is really an extremely beautiful person, just because Liu Zongmin occupied Chen Yuanyuan, he was angry at the crown.
Even the lives of more than 30 members of the family were killed, and they didn't care about it, so they pulled the banner to avenge Chongzhen.
Now as soon as his army arrived, he was immediately frightened and begged to surrender in front of the battle!
What a capricious villain!
Li Zicheng laughed, "The generals listened to the order, and the army marched forward to camp 3 miles in front of Shanhaiguan and receive Shanhaiguan tomorrow." ”
Liu Zongmin asked, "But Wu Sangui surrendered?" ”
"Naturally!"
"That doesn't spare him either. The 100,000 army was tired of traveling and traveling, and the consumption was huge, and he, Wu Sangui, had to pay the price. Liu Zongmin said loudly.
Liu Zongmin is equivalent to the supreme marshal of the army, and his words are extremely weighty.
"That's natural, he was supposed to wait for both father and son, now. Just give him an uncle. Li Zicheng smiled contemptuously and threw the letter away.
……
At the head of Shanhaiguan City, Wu Sangui listened to the report of the scout, and admired Chongzhen even more in his heart.
With such an obvious bombing, Wu Sangui actually believed it. Such a commander of an army, even if he has 100,000 troops, will not escape defeat.
Wu Sangui was thinking about it, when a soldier ran behind him and knelt on one knee: "Lord Commander, Lord Ni and General Soldier Gao are back!" ”
"So fast? It's only been seven or eight hours. They didn't find the enemy and came back without permission? "Wu Sangui can't believe it, such a blatant protest is very unusual, could something have happened?
Wu Sangui was most worried that at this critical juncture, the soldiers mutinied.
When I heard that Gao Di was gone and returned, a bad premonition rose in my heart.
"No, they ambushed an army of 20,000 Hu Li Guo, beheaded the 19,816 level, and returned with a big victory!" The pro-soldier said excitedly.
"What?"
Wu Sangui didn't care about the official authority, and ran to the east gate of Shanhaiguan with a long pendulum.
What are you kidding, you killed nearly 20,000 people in half a day, and that's not counting the time to run back and forth.
As he ran, he asked, "What are the casualties of our army?" ”
The soldiers replied: "236 killed and 1,069 wounded. ”
"What a joke! This is a presumption! Wu Sangui subconsciously scolded his own soldiers.
The soldier smiled bitterly, he didn't believe it at first, but with such a low-level risk, anyone could see that he was afraid that Gao Di would not dare to be so unscrupulous.
As soon as he arrived at the east gate, Wu Sangui listened to Gao Di read the battle report in as loud a voice as possible.
"Captured the enemy general Tian Wenxiu alive, 1,000 stones of grain and grass, 3,000 taels of silver, 20,000 armor, arrows, and weapons, 2,000 war horses, and 18,000 dead horses."
Chongzhen laughed, and immediately named Ni Yuanlu as Pingliaobo, Gaodi as Pingbeibo, and Xiong Wei as Pinghubo. At the same time, the three armies will be rewarded.
Wu Sangui couldn't believe his ears, looking at the steady stream of supplies and heads that were being brought in, and he couldn't believe his eyes.
There really was such a big victory.
What made him even more unbelievable was that after a big battle, he actually sealed three earls in one go, when did Chongzhen be so generous.
Is this still the Chongzhen I know?
In addition, I haven't heard of Xiong Wei.
Like Wu Sangui, Li Yutian is also in the same mood.
If Gao Di had such combat power, he would have been famous all over the world a long time ago, and there must be something strange in it.
All the sergeants did not understand the psychological activities of the senior generals, and they were all burning wood and cooking in full swing.
The Holy Lord clearly ordered that 18,000 dead horses should be used as military rations.
In addition to the two days of supply to the army, used as three meals, the rest according to the secret method provided by Chongzhen, made into bacon, sausages and other meat products that can be stored for a long time.
Each horse can produce 300 catties of meat and 100 catties of internal organs. 18,000 horses contributed meat, that's an astronomical amount.
Even if there is no external support, just this horse meat is enough to support the Shanhaiguan army for a long time.
Zhu Youjian smelled the smell of meat all over the city, and was very satisfied, it seems that the soldiers are very attentive to eating meat, and they will know how to make it as soon as they learn it.
In addition, he ordered horse skins to be made into leather clothing, leather gloves, leather armor, water bags, and other items to supply the whole army.
The three armed forces all praised it.
At the same time, in the pleasant atmosphere of the sergeants munching on meat, the name of the Wyvern Army gradually spread.
Everyone listened to their brave deeds, and they all wanted to become one of them, and when they heard that a few days ago, the group of people selected by the emperor were the ones who joined the Flying Dragon Army, they were all dissatisfied and envious.
I thought that I would be able to be photographed by Chongzhen one day and soar into the sky.
You know, in addition to the horror of combat power, it is a place where thousands of people can be crowned!
Wu Sangui also knew the reason for the overwhelming victory in this battle.
"The 27th Route Thousand Men of the Flying Dragon Army?" Wu Sangui repeated it, feeling more and more unfathomable that Chongzhen was unfathomable.
"No wonder the Holy God said that all the ministers are the ministers of the dead country. A few years ago, it was indeed a hundred officials of the court who mistook the emperor! ”
