Chapter 168: Zhuge marches and disperses
This must be a ridiculous joke.
He just wanted to ask those Paisil warriors to come over and explain in person, but suddenly found that those Paisil warriors seemed to be really panicking.
They ignored the central phalanx of Tamorodan in front of them, turned their horses' heads and walked around the side, and then fled to the sides.
Escaped!
The noble and brave Pysil warriors have fled?
At this moment, not only Bamorodan panicked, but even the surrounding slave soldiers were even more panicked.
"Barbarian!"
"The barbarians are really coming!"
Suddenly, I don't know which one of the people in the formation shouted.
Everyone is looking ahead in unison.
I saw that in the place where a dozen or so Paisil warriors had just appeared, a large group of barbarian cavalry appeared.
The barbarian cavalry, armed aloof, began to form a formation not far away.
It was clear that they had really defeated the Paisier warriors in the battle they had just fought.
"The hosts! Run, the barbarians seem to have really won. The fat black butler said with trembling legs.
"I am noble and religious.
。 ”
Halfway through Barmorodan's words, there was a sudden commotion among the infantry behind him.
Then came the panicked deserters.
"Run, run."
With a loud sound of panic, the infantry behind Bamorodan completely collapsed.
Many of the infantry discarded their heavy equipment and weapons, and fled the land as fast as they could.
"This, this.
。 ”
Bamorodan stared blankly at everything in front of him.
Everything happened so fast that he hadn't yet remembered to change his state of mind.
"Woo!"
"Whew!"
With a loud and unfamiliar trumpet, the barbarian cavalry, who had just finished their formation, began to charge.
I saw that they were like sharp knives, rushing towards the position of Palmorodan.
In the course of the march, the barbarian cavalry suddenly spread out to the sides.
It's like a huge net, trying to wipe out all the Bamarodans.
"Master, master!"
The black fat steward next to him was about to faint in a panic, and kept urging.
It was only then that Bathorodan came to his senses and began to want to turn and run away.
However, it was too late.
Those fierce barbarian cavalry were already in front of them.
"Survey!"
With the sound of a sword, the head of the black fat steward was suddenly cut off.
The gushing blood spurted out of Barmorodan's face.
"Surrender! I give up! ”
This time, he regained his senses and immediately made the wisest decision.
Thump!
Like a lump of rotten meat, Bamorodan was thrown from his horse to the ground.
The hard ground hurt his butt.
Bamorodan grinned in pain with his hands tied behind his back, but he didn't make the slightest sound.
Because he didn't know if these murderous barbarians would lay down the butcher's knife because of their wail.
"Boss, Yang has lived up to the military order and has already investigated the situation in front of him!"
Yang Wushu threw the fat pig-like Bamo Luo Dan in front of Duan Gong and said with a smug expression.
"What's going on?"
Duan Gong already knew that Yang Invincible had won the small battle, and immediately inquired about the enemy's situation.
"General, this barbarian is the chieftain near here, he knows the situation on the border, he only needs to torture him, and if he wants to know something, he can ask anything!"
Yang Wushu knew that he had captured a big fish through the accompanying translator of the country of Piao.
But he didn't dare to make any decision by himself, so he simply brought it back and let Duan Gong ask himself.
"Chieftain?"
As soon as Duan Gong heard Yang Wuving's words, he was immediately surprised.
He hurriedly summoned two barbarian interpreters, and then asked Bamorodan about it.
"Who is your surname, what is your official position, how many soldiers and horses are behind, and how many people are on the territory......"
Duan Gong asked everything he wanted in one go, and then waved his hand to ask the translator to be Pamarodan.
At this time, Bamorodan had already seen the surrounding situation clearly.
These high-ranking 'barbarians' are definitely not the Pyu people in the jungle.
Because the Burmese barbarians in the jungle are definitely not so tall and strong, and the people of the Bi country are mostly black, thin and short.
And these people in front of them are all full of fierce and vicious sense of oppression, and they are not easy to provoke at first glance.
Even, from them, Bamorodan saw a murderous aura even stronger than that of the Delhi Sultan's Guard.
When the two skinny Burmese people translated Duan Gong's words to Bhamorodan, he immediately answered them one by one without hesitation.
In an instant, almost the entire situation in Bangladesh was explained by Bhamorodan.
When Duan Gong listened to the translation's paraphrase, he couldn't help but frown more and more when he listened, and a chill shot from his eyes to Palmorodan.
The 'Ice and Snow Smart' Bamorodan immediately sensed the danger and couldn't help but panic and be at a loss.
Because everything he knows has been explained by him.
He didn't know why the leader of the 'barbarians' in front of him was still murderous.
Actually, Bamorodan didn't know that the reason why Duan Gong was like this was precisely because Bamorodan explained too quickly and thoroughly.
This kind of greed for life and fear of death is a bit of the cultivation of a lord.
"Chief, these barbarians are all soft eggs, why don't you add some torture instruments to him and check the authenticity?"
Yang Wushu next to him had already seen Duan Gong's doubts.
"No need!"
Duan Gong stared at Bamorodan for another time, and finally decided to believe him.
Anyway, I was about to cross the river and go west, no matter what the situation was, I would have to deal with it sooner or later.
He didn't believe it, the life of this fat barbarian soil king was in his own hands, and he dared to really play any tricks.
At this time, the Bamorodan next to him said something again, and then he lay on the ground and kowtowed, almost crying tears and snot.
"What did he say again?" Duan Gong asked curiously.
"Steward, he begs not to harm his life, and he is willing to swear to their god Brahma to be the most faithful servant of the general!" Said an interpreter in the country of Bi.
When Duan Gong heard this, his face was immediately full of black lines.
After the questioning just now, he already knew that the fat captive in front of him was almost equivalent to a county king in the Central Plains.
"The Ancient God Emperor"
I didn't have any backbone at all, so I groveled so easily.
However, for Duan Gong, it is a good thing.
"Tell him that I am the head of Dali in the Ming Dynasty, and now I have come to educate these barbarians of Tianzhu, as long as they obey orders obediently, they will definitely not hurt his life." Duan Gong ordered with a serious face.
After being assured of his life, Bamorodan's hanging heart finally let go of most of it.
Barmorodan then said that he was willing to prepare a treasure in order to show his newfound loyalty.
Of course, this needs to be sent back to a message to let the rear know.
After all, the relatives and subordinates in the rear must not have imagined that Bamorodan had already become a prisoner of the 'barbarians'.
"Treasure? Hmph, what you can't eat or drink, in my opinion, is a burden! ”
Duan Gong doesn't seem to be eating this.
What is the use of asking for some gold, silver and jewels in a wild land?
"Tell him to exchange the treasure for food and send it!"
Duan Gong's army was in urgent need of grain and grass reserves at this time, and he saw that the more he ate, the less he ate.
After hearing this, Bamorodan immediately nodded desperately in agreement, and then he asked the translator to tell Duan Gong.
"He said that not far ahead, there was a small city, which he used to store grain, and as long as the general sent someone with his token, he could immediately take over the granary."
The more Duan Gong listened, the more he felt that the fat man with a black face in front of him was unreliable.
He was accustomed to all kinds of barbarians.
These barbarians are some vulgar barbarians who don't know the height of the sky, and the most common thing they are familiar with is all kinds of braggart.
Most of them were afraid that they would hurt his life, so they made a delaying tactic.
The main purpose was to deliver letters, and the so-called granary dock fort was just a front.
However, Duan Gong was not afraid of any ventilating news at all.
After his army crossed the river, the army was steadily advancing step by step.
"You, pick two people, go and deliver the message!"
Duan Gong then instructed his entourage.
What granary is installed in the castle, what fine grain, Duan Gong does not give any hope.
He has tens of thousands of tigers and wolves in his hands, and he can search and rob them himself at any time.
Soon, the messenger arranged by Duan Gong crossed the river and walked to the opposite bank with the token given by Tamorodansh.
Duan Gong then made a plan with everyone to immediately cross the river and attack.
Because cavalry rarely fought water battles.
So they lined up in the front row of the river crossing, and Duan Gong personally led the rear army to cross the river later.
By the time everything was completed, the people who had been arranged by Duan Gong to capture the news to Bamorodan had already returned.
"I want to see the manager!"
"I want to see the manager!"
Duan Gong heard these words from afar.
"Bring it in!"
As soon as that person saw Duan Gong, his face was immediately full of excitement!
"Well, do you really have some grain and grass?" Duan Gong asked slowly.
"Chief, it's not some, but the real whole city is full of grain and grass!" The man said happily.
Puzhou, Yunnan.
The Han army led by Chen Youliang is stationed here.
After many inquiries, they finally learned that Duan Power's defeated remnants would cross the river and enter the territory of the Bengalis.
"Although there are not many defeated generals under Duan Gong's army, they are all elites, if they are not wiped out, I am afraid that there will be troubles in the future." Zou Pusheng, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, said to Chen Youliang.
Chen Youliang's Han army marched all the way in Yunnan, beating Duan Gong like a lost dog, and now it has occupied the entire territory of Yunnan.
However, Duan Gong's soldiers and the old forces of Dali were still very loyal to him.
Even in such a dangerous situation, there are still people who are loyal to Duan Gong.
Therefore, for these remnants of the defeated generals, Chen Youliang has always been very jealous in his heart.
However, if you want to continue the pursuit, you will have to face great difficulties.
The Chen Han army had to not only cross that unfathomably wide river, but also overcome the plague that began to increase in the army.
"Now there are many soldiers in the army who have malaria and plague, if we continue to pursue, I am afraid that we will not be able to use Duan Gong to fight back, and our own people will be discouraged by these diseases." Chen Youren said next to him.
Chen Youren is the fifth younger brother of Chen Youliang, second only to Chen Youliang in prestige, and is the King Kang of the Chen Han regime.
As the prince of the Chen Han regime, he is now Chen Youliang's right-hand man, with full authority to deal with the first military and political affairs in Yunnan.
Therefore, Chen Youren also has a very good understanding of these situations in Chen Hanjun in Yunnan.
"Yes, who would have thought that here in Yunnan, there would be so much miasma." Chen Youliang said worriedly.
Chen Han's army fought in Yunnan repeatedly, and the number of casualties on the real battlefield was not very large.
On the contrary, as they marched south, a large number of soldiers were brought down by the plague.
"Now that the plague is spreading in the army, in order to prevent the various armies from infecting each other, they have been allowed to camp in their respective defense areas, and no one is allowed to move around at will." Chen Hankang Wang Chen Youren said.
After the Chen Han regime entered Xichuan, it attached great importance to the new Confucian school brought from the south of the Yangtze River, which contained a lot of knowledge about the prevention and control of plague infection.
Now the epidemic in Chen Hanjun in Yunnan is very serious.
In many barracks, half of the soldiers fell ill.
"Now all the plagues in the army are treated by Zhuge Marching San, but now there are more and more sick soldiers, and Zhuge Marching Sansan is no longer enough, so we must hurry up and find a way to buy more medicine." Chen Youren said next to him.
This prescription for Zhuge marching was obtained by Zhu Han when he signed in.
As a good medicine to get rid of dampness and overcome the plague, Zhu Han carried out large-scale production in Jiangnan, which was specially used to supply Ming soldiers in Huguang, Lingnan and Guizhou.
Because the medicinal effect of this Zhuge marching powder is very good, it has also gained great recognition among the local people, and many Zhuge marching powders have been sold or given to the local people by the soldiers.
In this way, a lot of Zhuge marching troops were scattered through secret channels and flowed to the Chen Han army in Yunnan.
After obtaining the dispersal of Zhuge March, Chen Youliang attached great importance to it.
After some trial and error, the results are amazing!
Zhuge Xingjun San is very effective in the treatment of plague.
Otherwise, if Zhuge marched and dispersed, more soldiers would have died in Chen Youliang's army.
As soon as Chen Youliang heard that Zhuge marched and scattered little, he immediately paid attention to it.
He said to his younger brother Chen Youren: "Zhuge marching and dispersing is very important for our army to garrison Yunnan, you should hurry up and order people to prepare money, no matter what the price, you must buy it in large quantities from Guizhou, and buy as many as you want." ”
In fact, since the Tang Dynasty, there have been many summer remedies in the name of Zhuge marching and dispersing.
However, there is no unified standard for these prescriptions, and the efficacy of these medicines is also different.
Even many people marched under the guise of Zhuge to disperse, but in fact, what they sold was ordinary herbal tea powder, which had no effect of curing diseases and dispelling heat at all.
And the Zhuge marching army that flowed out of the hands of the Ming army, especially after Zhu Han's modulation, has the best effect.
Chen Youliang and others had already regarded the dispersal of Zhuge as a necessity for Chen Han's army to transfer to war in Yunnan.
Now, in order to buy more Zhuge marching troops from the Ming army, Chen Youliang has planned to use all the gold, silver and jewelry captured in Yunnan to buy smuggled medicinal materials.
But his younger brother Chen Youren immediately poured another basin of cold water on him.
Chen Youren said: "Brother Huang, if we want to buy Zhuge Marching Scattered this time, I'm afraid the money is not enough, not only is Zhuge Marching Scattered enough, but a large number of weapons and armor that our army needs now are also privately trafficked from Guizhou, these all require a lot of money, if there is no high price, those black-hearted businessmen will not sell it to me." ”
Because Zhu Han vigorously promoted new smelting technology in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, many places have mastered the process of making simple plate armor.
In the hands of some profit-seeking merchants, many new plate armors were trafficked into Chen Youliang's army through private channels.
