Chapter 146: I'm Not Worth a Governor?
Why did Lahada and Erzhu attack their own people?
Wang Wu didn't quite understand.
Turg understands and empathizes.
It's just that the heroes of the Eight Banners only need one.
What does that mean?
That is, for the sake of future and dignity, it is certainly impossible for every captive who is released to tell the court truthfully that they have been released.
So how to say?
It's nothing more than a rhetoric to take advantage of the lax guards of the Ming army to escape from prison, and even fight eight of them.
The problem is that you, Mr. Wang, will put two more today, and two more on a whim tomorrow, and go all the way
Who the can stand this?
More than a hundred of them all escaped from prison, guess the court believes it or not!
Therefore, if you want your lies not to be exposed, those who have already become heroes of the Eight Banners do not want new heroes to appear.
The fewer competitors, the better.
It's better to die all!
Only the dead in this world do not divulge secrets.
Quite a superficial truth.
One monk carries water to drink, two monks carry water to drink, and three monks have no water to drink.
Wang Wu, who understood this section, couldn't help but glance at Turge, and said curiously: "So, the deputy capital of Tu doesn't want me to release anyone again?" ”
Turg was silent, but the small movements on his face betrayed his true thoughts.
It's better not to put it away.
If he releases people again, he won't end well.
That day, I saw Lahada and Erzhu in Songzi, and I was almost afraid that he would scare out a cerebral thrombosis.
"Let me think about it."
Whether to put a few more prisoners in the back, Wang Wu didn't count himself, so he asked where Dong Xueli, the governor of Turg Huguang, was where, and how many soldiers he brought to chase him.
There is a guarantee, and Turg is honest.
said that Dong Xueli had already led troops to Yiling Prefecture, but there were not many soldiers and horses brought out, only seven or eight thousand.
"That's the kind of person?"
Wang Wu couldn't help but sink his heart after hearing this, he thought that Dong Xueli would have to transfer twenty or thirty thousand green battalions to chase him, but he didn't expect the old guy to be very stable.
More than 100,000 Qing troops drew less than 10,000 people to chase after them, and the blockade of the base area in Maolu Mountain basically had no impact.
That is to say, so far, his breakthrough eastward advance has not affected the Qing army's blockade and encirclement of Maolu Mountain.
Turge also said that he and the general Zheng Jukui led the cavalry to pursue first, and they were originally going to drag it out, but they never thought that they would see the released Lahada and Erzhu in Songzi.
These two staff leaders from the yellow flag were not very in awe of him, the deputy commander of the blue flag, and asked Zheng Jukui, the general of the green battalion, to pursue him immediately.
Zheng Jukui didn't dare not listen, and it was inconvenient for Turg to stop him with his identity as the deputy commander, so he had no choice but to chase after them together.
I didn't want Mr. Wang to use soldiers like gods, so they planted them again.
Wang Wu nodded, although this net is a small fish, but this small fish is Dong Xueli's cavalry, which is a big gain.
At least a few hundred mules and horses can be captured.
After confirming that the pursuers commanded by Dong Xueli were at least five to six days away from him, Wang Wu's mind became lively.
Because of this time difference, he can be like a fish in water before he arrives in Wuchang.
It can also make Dong Xueli more and more frightened, and he has to transfer troops out of the blockade line.
I didn't want Turg to hesitate, but I actually told Wang Wu a bad news.
It was the Qing army in Shaanxi that at about the same time as the Battle of Huanglongshan began, and captured the Shamao cottage garrisoned by Gao Guoyu and Wang Xizhong, the commanders of Li Laiheng's department.
This village is the only place where Maolu Mountain leads to the primeval forest in the north, and the loss means that the strategy of going north from Yunyang to Shaanxi set by the three old commanders has been unable to be implemented.
In other words, the strategy of breaking through to the north has been bankrupt because of the loss of the Shamao Cottage.
The reason for the loss of Shamao Cottage is not that the Shaanxi Green Battalion is too capable of fighting, but that the general soldier Wang Xizhong became a traitor, led the troops to kill Gao Guoyu and led his troops to surrender the Qing army, and then acted as the vanguard of the Qing army, leading the Qing army to capture several villages in the north of Maolu Mountain one after another, making the northern area of Maolu Mountain basically fall.
There was a major gap in the defensive line deployed by Li Laiheng, and the battle of Huanglongshan did not make the Ming army happy for two days, and the whole line was in an emergency and was in danger.
Wang Wu was angry and wanted to kill, and hated the chief soldier Wang Xizhong, if this person heard about the great victory on the southern front one day later, it was impossible to be a traitor!
People are not as good as heaven.
The Qing army's full-front offensive and the superiority of more than ten times the strength of the Ming army proved the thesis that Niu Qi once said - "a partial victory cannot change the overall situation." ”
The disadvantage of the Ming army was too big and too big.
At present, the Shaanxi Green Battalion, under the command of Admiral Wang Yizheng, is storming Li Laiheng's main village.
The Xi'an general Fu Kachan also led the Eight Banners to the front line to supervise the battle.
Even if the Huguang Qing army on the eastern and southern fronts was temporarily unable to act in unity due to the departure of Admiral Dong Xueli, the 50,000 Shaanxi Qing troops on the northern front alone were enough to make the Ming army tired to cope.
What's more, there are tens of thousands of Sichuan Qing troops on the Western Front.
The balance of the battle situation had originally tilted towards the Ming army under Wang Wu's prying, but now it suddenly fell again.
If you want to break the game, there is basically no way.
Because Dong Xueli is too stable, he can't be adjusted at all.
And the Ming army led by Wang Wu was still hundreds of miles away from Wuchang City.
Now, even if Wang Wu returns to Maolu Mountain, I'm afraid there is nothing he can do.
How to break the game?
Wang Wu was also distraught.
Turg on the other side had been secretly observing the change in his expression, and seeing that he was silent, he suddenly cautiously tried to say: "Although the general uses troops like a god, but the eastward move to transfer our army to relieve the siege is too obvious, can Dong Xueli be tricked?" The only way to do this is to advise the general to think twice. ”
Hearing this, Wang Wu raised his eyebrows, looked at Turge contemptuously and said, "Why, is it difficult for Tu and Deputy Du to persuade me to surrender?" ”
As soon as the words fell, he saw that the deputy of the picture had a unified face and said sincerely: "The general has become famous all over the world through the battle of Huanglongshan, and there are Mulima, Yang Maoxun and others as hostages in his hands, if the general is willing to submit to my Qing Dynasty at this time, the court will not hesitate to reward as long as the general is interested, I Turg can contact the court on behalf of the general, and choose one or two major mansions in Huguang for the generals to station, if the general has doubts, he does not even have to go to Beijing." ”
This condition made Wang Wu can't help but think of Niu Qi and the Cao family's clothed slave.
couldn't help sneering: "If this condition requires me to submit to your court, then your court will be very stingy." ”
Turg's eyes moved: "What conditions does the general want?" ”
"I even defeated your Manchurian Eight Banners, and your court wants me to surrender, why do you want to give me a governor?"
Wang Wu snorted slightly.
After hearing this, Turg actually breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "This condition is not impossible to negotiate. ”
Well?
This time it was Wang Wu's turn to be surprised, and he squinted and glanced at Turge: "To be honest, is there anything else you are hiding from me?" ”
"This"
Turg groaned slightly, telling the truth.
Yesterday, on the way, General Zheng Jukui received an urgent report from Admiral Dong Xueli, saying that Zheng Jiaolin, the Admiral of Sichuan, had sent 10,000 soldiers and horses to Badong City, which belonged to Huguang.
There was no prior notification to Huguang, and it was suddenly stationed.
