Ma Tengyun is dead.

The accident of death is not unexpected.

Because, he met the fifth king of the big sword - a good son of the Han family who still has eggs!

Back then, General Guoyi of Dashun and Marquis Gaoling of the Ming Dynasty probably never imagined that he would be nailed to the pillar of shame in the end.

One misstep will be hated for thousands of years.

Looking at Ma Tengyun, who was stuck there with a spear, Wang Wu let go of his hand.

The spear was bent and seemed to break in two at any moment, but it still stood in the snow.

Ma Tengyun's head on the spearhead drooped.

The helmet had long since fallen to the ground, revealing his bare freshly shaved head.

The braid at the back of the head dangled from time to time in the breeze.

After a moment of silence, Wang Wu suddenly reached out and closed Ma Tengyun's eyes that were not closed.

At the same time, he stopped the mute who wanted to cut off Ma Tengyun's head.

"He used to be a man, too."

Sighing lightly, he looked around, and everywhere there were Ming troops throwing their weapons in celebration.

"Victory, victory!"

"Win, let's win!"

"Second child, did you see it, we won, we won, woo..."

“......”

The cheers resounded in the valley road, but more of them wept with joy.

This long-lost victory made the soldiers of the Ming army, who had already had the determination to die, seem to see hope at once and see the meaning of perseverance.

I hope they will jump and stomp happily in excitement, some will hug each other tightly, some will sit on the ground and gasp for breath, and some will silently look at the corpses of their fallen comrades and cry...

The wounded soldier was able to move or hold up, or with the support of his comrades, he was stupidly watching the jumping and cheering crowd.

"It's been a long time since I've been so happy, if only Liu Shuai was here!"

Ma Sizhong punched Xu Deyi on the chest, and his eyes were red, and he held back tears.

"It's a pleasure, our loyalty camp has been too aggrieved in the past two years!"

Xu Deyi coughed a few times, but did not tell the old man of more than 20 years that he was actually injured.

"Let's go, let's go to the five brothers Wang, if it weren't for the five brothers in this battle, I'm afraid the two brothers would go to see King Lao Chuang!"

Ma Sizhong, who was overjoyed, pulled Xu Deyi through the crowd and found Wang Wu who was looking ahead.

Wang Wu did not give the order to continue the pursuit, he suspected that there was another rebel army here, and was rushing here.

Although the Ming army won a great victory, they were also exhausted, and if they dared to pursue the remnants of the Mabe, it was very likely that they would be beaten by the rebels who rushed in, resulting in the hard-won victory becoming their last swan song in the world.

"Listen to the five brothers, don't chase it!"

Without thinking about it, Ma Sizhong asked people to blow the trumpet to stop the pursuit, and subconsciously asked Wang Wu what to do next.

Wang Wu arranged several things.

The first is to immediately count your own casualties and see how much combat power you still have.

The second is to organize people to carry the wounded soldiers to the rear and bandage them.

The third is to take stock of the battlefield and collect all the materials that can be used.

The focus was on armor, bows and arrows, and firearms, which were extremely lacking in the Ming army.

Fourth, the prisoners were kept in a centralized manner.

In addition, let people notify Zhang Tianwang in the back to come over.

After arranging all this, Wang Wu summoned Jiang Tiancheng of Junzhou, Zhang Beiqiu of Zhushan and others, who had surrendered earlier, and asked them about the situation of the other rebel army.

After knowing that Dachang, which is more than five miles away from here, actually has a green battalion of more than 2,000 Qing soldiers, not only Wang Wu's heart sank, but the hearts of Zhao Jinzhong, Zhang Pengyu and others around him all jumped.

Wang Wu knew that the ability to defeat Ma Tengyun this time was not based on how high the combat effectiveness of the Ming army was, but because the Ming army had the determination to kill himself, so that he was able to overwhelm Ma Bu in momentum and achieve victory.

The so-called barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes!

On the other hand, it is also because Ma Tengyun's army is the original Ming army that has just surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, although many soldiers followed Ma Tengyun to surrender the Qing army, but they are not willing to fight to the death with their former comrades who are still insisting, nor do they want to be stained with the blood of these comrades, so after the battle started, these Ma troops did not show enough combat effectiveness.

Or enough willingness to fight.

Collapse is inevitable after a setback.

But the green battalion soldiers are different, they are the real Qing army, both in morale and fighting spirit are much higher than the surrendered army under Ma Tengyun!

It can be concluded that the cruelty of the next battle between the Ming army and the green battalion must have far exceeded the battle between the Ming army and the horse department.

How can we defeat this Green Battalion?

When Wang Wu, who was frowning, pondered how to deal with the enemy, Ma Sizhong, Xu Deyi, and Zhang Tianwang brothers all came.

The casualties of their own side are basically counted, and the Lao Shun army has 105 killed and 75 wounded, that is, one-third of the casualties.

Zhang Tianfang suffered more than 50 casualties, about a quarter.

More than 70 people were killed or wounded on Wang Wu's side, almost one-third.

The casualty rate of all three sides was very high, and there were less than 700 soldiers left who could fight.

The number of rebels annihilated is unknown, but more than 500 people were taken prisoner.

The usable supplies are being collected, and the wounded are being carried to the rear and handed over to the family members brought by Zhang Tianwang from the lock hole to take care of.

"Guys, let's not rejoice too soon!"

Wang Wu informed everyone of the situation of the Qing army in Dachang.

As soon as they heard that it was a green battalion of more than 2,000 soldiers, everyone's expressions couldn't help but become solemn, obviously knowing that the next battle would be even more cruel.

It is even possible that the Ming army will be wiped out.

After a few breaths, I saw Xu Deyi "puffing" and spitting on the ground: "What are you afraid of, it's a big deal to fight with them!" If we can win Ma Tengyun, we can win that Niu Wancheng! ”

The saliva was bloody, and Xu had suffered internal injuries in the battle just now.

"Yes, fight with them!"

"Killing one is enough, killing two earns one!"

"I'm going to drag two pads on my back if I'm dead!"

"Call those green camp dogs to see what real men are!"

“......”

Although everyone valued the green battalion, no one was afraid of it, and no one was willing to retreat.

Zhang Tianwang said that since there is still a vicious battle, then don't take it this time, except for women, children and children, men are all in battle.

"Even if it's dead, we can't let that group of green camp dogs look down on it!"

While speaking, Zhang Tianwang rubbed his hands, eager to fight the Qing army to the death immediately.

However, everyone found that Wang Wu did not speak.

Seeing this, Ma Sizhong couldn't help asking, "What do the five brothers have in mind?" ”

"Brother Wang, what do you think, just say, what I admire most in my life is a man who is not afraid of death!"

Zhang Tianwang really admired the young man in front of him, who was thirty years younger than him, if it weren't for this young man, where would so many heroes who were willing to die for the Ming Dynasty get together.

Wang Wu looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Our troops are not as good as the green battalion, and the brothers are all very tired at the moment, and if you fight hard, you will definitely not be able to do it, so I mean withdraw!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

"Withdraw?!"

Zhang Tianwang smacked his lips, "Even if we can't beat those green camp dogs, we won't make them scared to withdraw, right?" Besides, where else can we retreat? ”

"Right now, everyone can work together because of their anger, if you want to withdraw, I'm afraid that everyone's anger will have to be vented."

Ma Sizhong was reluctant to withdraw, and it was not good to directly veto the intention of the five Wang brothers, so he said it more tactfully.

"Head, it's all on this, what else to withdraw? It's a big deal, what's there to be afraid of! ”

Zhao Jinzhong, who has always been taciturn, said a few more words for the first time.

Although the others did not speak, their eyes were all telling Wang Wu - they were unwilling to withdraw!

"The withdrawal I'm talking about is not to withdraw the lock, let alone to Wujiayuanzi, but to lure the Qing army over!"

Wang Wu pointed to the direction he came, and told everyone that he had been paying attention to the terrain when he came before, and found that there was a place that was very suitable for ambushes, so he was going to take everyone to retreat there to preset an ambush circle, and when the Qing army followed them, they would be caught off guard.

"Only in this way can we have a chance to win!"

Even if he had the heart of death, Wang Wu was unwilling to sacrifice in vain.

After hearing this, everyone felt that the strategy of luring the enemy was feasible, and at that moment Ma Sizhong actually asked Wang Wu to preside over the ambush of luring the enemy.

Brother Zhang Tianwang and Xu Deyi have no opinion.

Wang Wu did not shirk, but before deploying, he instructed the blind man Wan Si: "You go and tell the captives that we must withdraw to the lock hole now, so that those who are willing to stay with us and the Tartars will stay, and let them go if they are unwilling!" ”

"Released?!"

Hearing this, Zhang Tianfang blurted out, "Can't put it!" If you let go of these eggless people, they will definitely fight us when they go back! ”

"Fifth Brother Wang, I know that you are benevolent and righteous, and you don't want to force others to die with us, but these captives are not ordinary people, what is the difference between letting them go and returning to the mountains?"

Ma Sizhong also said that he couldn't put it.

Wang Wu shook his head and said: "These captives are not tigers, even if they are tigers, they are paper tigers that make us scared, and besides, it is the Qing army that will give them a headache when they go back, not us!" ”

After a pause, he smiled again and said, "If you don't let them go, how can the Qing army know that we are afraid that they will withdraw?" ”
