Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Duke of Wei and the Duke of Wei
Xu Hongji thought that the other side was an enemy with only 60,000 troops, while his own side had 80,000 people, and the advantage was mine.
However, it is a pity that the 60,000 people were the troops taken from the capital when Xu Da waved his army south.
Along the way, they passed through Beizhili and Shandong, gathered soldiers from all over the country, and the number of troops has reached 100,000.
In Xu Hongji's hands, there were only 30,000 soldiers and horses from Nanjing, and the remaining 50,000 were from Liu Liangzuo's department and Liu Zeqing's department in the four towns of Jiangbei.
As for the Huang Degong Department and the Gao Jie Department...... Sorry, the command can't move.
The front-line position, the famous general who chased the king of Zhongshan, and now Xu Da, who also bears the name of the Duke of Wei, is surveying the map and planning the battlefield.
"General Qiyu, our army scouts have returned south, and the enemy general is the commander...... It is Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei, the deputy will be Zhu Guobi, the Duke of Baoguo, and Zhao Zhilong, the Bo of Xincheng, the pioneer will be Li Zushu, the Marquis of Linhuai, and Deng Wenyu, the Marquis of Dingyuan, and the counselors of the Lujun will be Tang Guozuo, Marquis of Lingbi, and Liu Zuochang, Marquis of Anyuan......"
Listening to these unfamiliar names and familiar titles, Xu Dawen smiled, looked at the generals on the field, and said with a smile: "Among these unscrupulous descendants, there are my Ming Dynasty founding assistants, and there are also Jingnan Fathers...... Tell yourselves whose children and grandchildren they are. ”
After that, Xu Da was also unceremonious, and said directly: "First of all, starting from the general, Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei, is not a descendant, I never thought that there would be such a guy among my Xu Da's descendants, not only is he disloyal and unfilial, but his ability to lead troops to fight is also a mess!" The troops are shrinking in Xuzhou, and the logistics are insufficient, I just need to besiege the city without attacking, and its army will be chaotic! ”
"Dingyuan Marquis Deng Wenyu and Lingbi Marquis Tang Guozuo, these two are the descendants of my friend General Deng Yu Deng, Tang and General Tang, this general will replace the two generals Deng and Tang, teach their descendants a good lesson, capture and serve in front of His Majesty, Jiajing and Chongzhen, to thank the country!"
Xu Da was disappointed.
It's just that you're unfaithful and unfilial.
Why is there such a war to fight?
My old Xu family has been passed down from generation to generation, and it has been passed on to a group of wastes like you?
After hearing Xu Da's voice, Li Jinglong, a young general who was thrown by Zhu Yuanzhang from Jingtai Dynasty to Chongzhen Dynasty, immediately voted: "General Qiyu, Linhuai Marquis Li Zushu is the descendant of the last general." ”
And the rest of the nobles, the Hongwu generals who went out with Xu Da have claimed them, but there are still some descendants of the Jingnan Fathers who have not been claimed, such as the descendants of Zhang Xin and Zhao Yi, but there are also a few young generals in the army, and there are also juniors in the city.
It's a good battle, and it's like a meeting with a large ancestor.
It's just that this meeting is not hello, hello, hello, everyone, but how the generals in the early Ming Dynasty taught this group of 'filial sons and grandsons'.
And the generals of the Chongzhen Dynasty, Huang Degong, Gao Jie and other generals who traveled with the army, did not dare to speak, but listened to Xu Da's orders on the side.
"Li Jinglong!"
Xu Dahu's eyes swept over the generals, and finally stopped on this young general with a blue nose and swollen face, and opened his mouth and said: "I will give you 3,000 soldiers, so that you can cross Xuzhou, go straight to Huai'an, and together with Jing Nanbo, transfer the 30,000 tigers under Jing Nanbo's command to Nanjing!" ”
"Lufeng Governor Ma Shiying's Fengyang garrison is waiting for him, and it is suspected that there is an abnormal movement, if Fengyang is dispatched, it will be stopped by Ling and Jing Nanbo."
After hearing Xu Da's voice, Li Jinglong burst into tears, and immediately arched his hand and said: "The last general will lead the army!" ”
And after Li Jinglong finished worshipping, Xu Da looked at Huang Degong again, and said kindly to Huang Degong: "Jing Nanbo, Jinglong is stupid, if there is any command error, I hope you can help one or two, so as not to defeat and humiliate the country." ”
"The king of Zhongshan is serious, and the last general's slight talent is compared to Cao Guogong, like a firefly is better than Hao......yue," Huang Degong hurriedly said.
"What is the king of Zhongshan, not the king of Zhongshan, I am the commander of the three armies, and I am named the Duke of Wei, and Jingnan Bo should not be commensurate with the king of Zhongshan."
Xu Da shook his head, and then said with a firm gaze: "The whole army is arrayed, the artillery is roaring, and the city is besieged!" ”
……
"Boom ——!!!"
Under the artillery fire, the soldiers in Xuzhou City were a little panicked, and Xu Hongji, the commander of the Southern Army, personally came to the first-line city wall and braved the artillery fire to supervise the battle.
When he saw the Northern Army waving the banner of 'Wei Guogong', his face sank and he scolded angrily: "Damn it! It must be a guy in the line of Dingguo Gong, who was a traitor when Jing was martyred, and now he wants to inherit Wei Guogong! ”
Although they are both Xu families, the two branches of Dingguo Gong and Wei Guogong have been separated for more than 200 years, and they have a little contact during the New Year's holidays on weekdays, and the rest of the time they are basically like strangers.
Although there has been news in the world that 'Emperor Taizu Gao, Emperor Cheng Zuwen, and Emperor Sejongsu brought heavenly soldiers to recover Daming Sheji', in Xu Hongji's view, it is nonsense.
It's just that Emperor Chongzhen was dizzy for a while and came up with a solution!
Therefore, after he saw the banner of Wei Guogong, he was furious, and felt that it was the name of Dingguo Gong in the capital.
Xu Hongji clenched the sword at his waist, and there seemed to be a raging flame burning between his eyes: "Wei Guogong is not so easy to be!" I'll let you see how the ancestors used their soldiers like gods back then! You are in the same vein as the Duke of the Kingdom, but you have just learned some skins! ”
Xu Hongji was full of confidence and felt that he had won the subtlety of the art of war of the ancestor Zhongshan King Xu Da.
What Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng, Wu Sangui, Liu Zongmin, Sun Chuanting, Yuan Chonghuan, Duoduo...... This generation is a clown.
The world's famous generals, only he, Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei, is alone!
He had already secretly decided to give the guy who claimed to be Wei Guogong on the other party a little color!
Just as he was holding his breath and concentrating, with a lot of strategy in his chest, planning to use the military techniques of ancient sages such as Sun Bin and Wu Qi to thwart the enemy army, he saw that the deputy marshal Xincheng Bo Zhao Zhilong looked nervous, ran over quickly, and said to Xu Hongji: "Wei Guogong! The big thing is not good, the enemy seems to be besieging the city, and the food in the city is ...... It's only enough for the army for ten days! ”
Xu Hongji was shocked when he heard this: "Where is the supply of grain and grass?!" ”
"The scout said that the enemy army divided an elite army and went straight to the south, as if they were going to Huai'an to cut off the connection between Xuzhou and Nanjing!"
Hearing the words of Xincheng Bo Zhao Zhilong, Xu Hongji only panicked slightly, and then won the victory, and laughed loudly: "The enemy general does not know the soldiers!" Sun Ziyun: 'Ten will surround it, five will attack it, and if it is multiplied, it will be divided, and the enemy will be able to fight, and if it is few, it can be escaped, and if it is not, it can be avoided. Therefore, the small enemy is strong, and the big enemy is also captured. 'The enemy general is not even doubled, but our army has 20,000 more soldiers and horses than the other side, according to this situation, it is not our army that is afraid of him, but he is afraid of our army! ”
Xu Hongji was full of confidence, although the red-clothed cannon kept bombarding, he still pulled out the sword at his waist, and his armor shone in the sunlight:
"Besides, the commander of the enemy army is stupid and doesn't know that he dares to divide his troops in such a situation? Let's see me lead my 5,000 elite family members to fight out of the city, defeat the enemy's courage, and enter the capital to make immortal achievements! ”
