Chapter 233: I have a good relationship with Hu Hai
The war ended with nuclear peace, and the atomic bomb was the gospel of mankind, which influenced Japan, ended World War II, prevented the United States and the Soviet Union, and postponed World War III indefinitely.
Facts have proved that no matter how big the truth is, it is not as convincing as an atomic bomb, and it is not the same thing to have a bomb and not to have a bomb.
Li Wei looked at the back of Song Zhong and the others leaving, and sighed slightly, if he could, he also hoped that he would end this war with artillery for a while like Puding did last time.
However, Darima is not the Daru Huachi of Puding, he has an army of more than 100,000 people, and the persuasiveness of these cannons is obviously insufficient, and this war will not end without a bloody battle to defeat Darima's army.
With the success of a large number of Ming troops crossing the river, Darima's army was defeated and retreated, and after Song Zhong and Zuo Wei and others crossed the river, they showed the strong combat power of the Shenji battalion.
The Shenji Battalion not only has powerful firearms, but also has strict discipline, and the usual queue training has shown a huge effect at this time, and under the leadership of generals at all levels, a strict lineup was quickly formed, and every time a gun rang out, an enemy army fell.
Even if the soldiers are occasionally injured, the reserve soldiers will immediately make up for it to ensure that the formation is not chaotic, and the few enemy troops who can rush to the front of the formation will also face long bayonets, and they will be stabbed into a bloody hole in a few moments and die on the spot.
Darima looked at the army whose defeat was revealed, and his heart was anxious, and he kept shouting to boost his morale.
At this time, Erzhilek rode over on a bloody horse and shouted: "General, the Ming army has landed on the shore, what should we do?" ”
"Our army is more than 100,000 waiting for work, can't we still win against these Ming troops? Give it all to me, don't retreat! Death to those who retreat! ”
Darima roared unwillingly.
Erzhilek's heart was cold, and he was still counting on Darima to order a retreat, which seemed to be a no-brainer.
After thinking for a moment, his heart suddenly moved, and he shouted: "What the general said is that I will help the general supervise the battle!" ”
After saying that, Erzhilek rode to the rear of the army, shouting as he ran: "Don't retreat, those who retreat die!" ”
Darima was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly shouted: "You stop me!" ”
However, Erzhilek ran back with an iron heart, and went against the current in the name of supervising the war, and many Yuan army soldiers saw him shouting that he was not allowed to retreat, while retreating faster than anyone else, they were suddenly a little confused, and the pace of progress couldn't help but slow down a lot.
Darima was about to order someone to catch up and take him down, but at this time the war had changed, hundreds of soldiers led by Zhang Yi quietly crossed the river and arranged three miles away from the rear of the Yuan army, when the two armies were in full swing, they saw the opportunity to blow the horn and beat the drum, wave the flag and shout, and hundreds of people were stunned to make the momentum of tens of thousands of people!
The scouts scattered by the Yuan army in the distance heard the movement, and when they saw this momentum, they were immediately shocked, and immediately flew back to Darima:
"General, no, there is a Ming army attacking from the rear!"
"What?"
When Darima heard this, he was shocked in an instant!
Now that the two armies are stalemate, all his thoughts are on the Ming army crossing the river, and at this time there is an enemy attack in the rear, how can he resist it!
"How so? Could it be that the Ming army came with more than 200,000 troops? ”
Darima was also confused for a while, he has been ordering people to keep an eye on the Ming army on the other side of the river for the past few days, and he did not find that the Ming army had a division of troops during the period, so he could only make up for the Ming army and another strange soldier secretly crossed the river from elsewhere.
After thinking for a moment, Darima hurriedly ordered: "Pass my order, let the army in front withdraw, the rear army will become the front army, and the whole army will retreat five miles!" ”
At this time, there was a Ming army in the rear, and there were at least tens of thousands of people, which could not be ignored, if he continued to fight with the Ming army crossing the river, he would fall into the situation of being flanked by the front and rear, and it would be too late to retreat!
Darima's order was issued, the Yuan army in front of him no longer had the fighting spirit, and ran back after leaving the Ming army, and the Yuan army's formation was suddenly chaotic, and it was withdrawn to seven or eight miles away, and Darima re-stabilized the army's position.
Taking this opportunity, Fu Youde hurriedly urged the army to cross the river.
When Darima stabilized the army and saw that the so-called "strange soldiers" of the Ming army were reluctant to show up, his heart sank suddenly, and he knew that he had been tricked, but it was too late to go back at this time, and the 200,000 troops of the Ming army had quickly completed the crossing of the river in addition to the heavy grain and grass and Li Wei's heavy artillery.
"It's over!" Dari's hemp face is like dead ashes.
The Ming army successfully crossed the river, the momentum was like a rainbow, the relative Yuan army, lost the natural barrier of the Baishi River, morale plummeted, and there was Erzhilek, a-stirring stick, which made the army panic, in this case, the Yuan army could not defeat the Ming army at all.
Fu Youde was very good at grasping the fighters, and immediately ordered an attack after the Ming army stabilized its position.
Mu Ying, Wang Bi and other generals took the lead, leading the iron cavalry to charge ahead, and the infantry and archers followed closely behind.
Today's generals of the Ming army are all brave and good at fighting, and the soldiers are also brave in battle, and the Yuan army on Darima's side cannot resist it head-on at all, and the position that has just stabilized is quickly defeated.
The defeat was like a mountain, although the Yuan army also had hundreds of thousands of troops on its side, but once it began to disperse, it would be out of control, no matter how Darima shouted, it could not prevent the defeat of the army.
Li Wei took the telescope and watched the battle across the river, and when he saw this scene, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that the overall situation has been decided, and the Baishi River has been taken, Yunnan is in the pocket of the Ming army, as for the Tusi everywhere, it is a long-term task, or suppression, or pacification, it will not be able to be completed in a while.
The battle lasted until the evening, when the Yuan army was defeated and nearly 20,000 people were captured by the Ming army, including Darima, and the rest fled.
When the war was over, Fu Youde turned around and organized grain and grass to cross the river, and Li Wei's artillery was also carried over.
The army set up camp and rested, and Fu Youde and other generals gathered, with joyful expressions on their faces.
"We took Qujing, and half of the southern expedition was won, I think we should take advantage of the morale to take Yunnan in one go, and then recruit all sides of the Tusi, as well as the general manager of Dali, if he is disobedient, he will also be cleaned up!"
Zhang Yi said excitedly, although Mu Ying's plan for this suspicious soldier was made, he was the specific executor, and his military merits were indispensable.
Wang Bi, Hu Hai and others basically think like this, but Fu Youde has a different opinion: "It is certain to take Yunnan, the hundreds of thousands of troops of King Liang have all died here, and there is no strength to fight again, we only need a large army to come to the city, and it is not difficult to take Yunnan, but all parties still need to think twice, the situation here is complicated, I will play Your Majesty, please Your Majesty." ”
When everyone heard this, they didn't say much, although they were out on the expedition, they still often sent people to keep in touch with Zhu Yuanzhang in Beijing, although the generals in front had the right to arbitrarily make decisions on the spot, but every move of the army was also under Zhu Yuanzhang's control.
"Okay, let's discuss how to take Yunnan."
Fu Youde changed the subject.
The people also retracted their worries and discussed the affairs of Yunnan.
Although King Liang no longer has many soldiers and horses, he relies on the city of Yunnan, and it takes a lot of effort to defeat it.
"In my opinion, just bomb the fuck!" Li Wei said.
Everyone is used to it, and they just nodded lightly when they heard the words, Li Wei's artillery has repeatedly made war exploits, and of course his artillery is indispensable for the siege of the city, but how to bomb it specifically, there must still be a saying, and it can't just be fucking over.
"Oh? General Li said, how to bomb it? Fu Youde asked with a chuckle.
Li Wei thought for a while, and gestured with both hands: "I can concentrate artillery to bombard a city wall, where the enemy troops will definitely scatter and dodge, and then our artillery will be divided into two lanes and spread out to both sides to drive away these enemy troops, so that this section of the city wall will be vacant, and then Hu Hai can lead people to rush over from the middle like when crossing the river, occupy this section of the city wall, and the next battle will be easy to fight!" ”
After this period of training, Li Wei became more and more familiar with the use of artillery, and after a little brainstorming, he came up with this not bad idea.
When everyone heard this, their eyes flashed with brilliance, this method is somewhat similar to the operation when crossing the river, and it is indeed good to use it to attack the city.
This time, Hu Hai did not raise any objections, and even heard Li Wei take a bite of Hu Hai, and he was still a little happy in his heart.
This time he crossed the river as a pioneer and cooperated with Li Wei's artillery fire, took the lead in gaining a firm foothold on the river bank, and laid a good front station for the army to cross the river.
However, Hu Hai didn't speak, but others put forward their opinions one after another.
"I don't think I need to bother Hu Dudu this time, I'll just wait for the battle!"
"Yes, we can't let Hu Dudu charge forward every time, we have to be brave and take the lead......"
"Yes, the last general asks to fight!"
In addition to Zhang Yi, Feng Cheng, He Fu and several other generals who did not make any great achievements began to fight for battle, and after the first battle of the Transition River, they also saw that fighting with Li Wei's artillery fire, the military merit was like picking it up, and it was much easier than working their own!
Moreover, Hu Hai had such a big contradiction with him, and he didn't take the opportunity to trap people, so those of them who didn't have much contradiction with Li Wei were even more relieved.
Hu Hai was a little unhappy when he saw this, but he didn't say much, after all, everyone is a brother who has worked hard all the way, and he can't monopolize military merits.
Fu Youde looked at Li Wei: "What do you think?" ”
When the generals heard this, they also looked at him.
Li Wei glanced at everyone, then looked at the silent Hu Hai, and suddenly moved in his heart, and said, "I think it's better to let Hu Hai come." ”
"Oh, why?" Fu Youde asked.
Li Wei's face was solemn, and he said solemnly: "The general doesn't know, in fact, Hu Hai and I have a good relationship, we hate each other, complement each other, depend on each other, and love ......each other."
"Ahem, cough, cough......" Hu Hai was shocked by the sudden confession, and waved his hand again and again: "No, no, General Li is too polite!" ”
When everyone heard Li Wei's words, they all looked at the two of them with surprise on their faces, and countless question marks popped up in their hearts.
Facing everyone's questioning eyes, Hu Hai wanted to speak and stopped, not knowing how to explain for a while.
He and Li Wei also cooperated tacitly in the battle of crossing the river, and Li Wei did not take the opportunity to trap him.
If Ru Taisu was here, he would definitely jump out and say the truth, and persuade him to explain it clearly on the spot, so as not to suffer an injustice!
It's a pity that Ru Taisu is far away in Beijing, and Hu Hai, who doesn't know the inside story, took Li Wei's words head-on.
"General, I think Hu Dudu and Li Wei cooperated very well when they crossed the river, and it was also a good choice to let him fight this time."
Mu Ying said loudly, and the others couldn't help frowning, this military exploit has divided Hu Hai and Li Wei, won't they run away in vain this time?
Fu Youde pondered for a moment and said: "Actually, in addition to attacking Yunnan, we also need to divide our troops to support the army of the North Road, I got the news that Guo Ying and others are blocked in the area of the Chishui River, and I am ready to take some soldiers to meet them." ”
"The last general is willing to follow the general!"
"I'm willing to fight!"
Feng Cheng and the others saw that there was nothing to gain from Yunnan, so they put their hopes in the direction of supporting the army on the North Road.
Fu Youde nodded lightly: "Okay, then you will follow me to the north, with the soldiers of Yongning, Mu Ying and Wang Bi, you will lead the army to capture Yunnan!" ”
"The last general obeys!" The generals will respond.
In the city of Yunnan, on the second day of the defeat of Darima, the defeated stragglers spread the news here, and the king of Liang soon got the report, and his face turned pale with shock:
"How so, how so?"
He handed over more than 100,000 elite soldiers to Darima, and this time the whole army was annihilated, so what did he use to resist the 200,000 Ming army?
"Lord, now that the situation is urgent, what should we do?"
King Liang's Zuo Cheng Golden Donkey asked in a panic.
King Liang glanced at him, and said in his heart, you ask me, how do I know?
"Why don't we go to the mountains and wilderness to temporarily avoid the edge of the Ming army, and then fight back when we regroup the army!" Right Cheng Guanyin Bao suggested.
The golden donkey glanced at him, and both of them understood in their hearts, what kind of gathering army to fight back, it was all a pretext, now the Northern Yuan Dynasty court is too busy to take care of itself, and the Tusi in various places do not listen to them, where to gather the army?
Guanyin Bao said this just to find an excuse for King Liang to escape.
King Liang also understood this, but now that the matter had come to this, he had no choice.
After a moment of silence, King Liang sighed and said, "Okay, Golden Donkey, you go and prepare immediately, bring some people, and follow me out of the city to take shelter temporarily." ”
"Yes!" The golden donkey breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"Guanyin Bao, you stay in the city, you must help me hold on, and when I gather an army, I will come to the rescue, and then we will attack inside and outside, and wipe out the Ming army outside Yunnan City!" Liang Wang Zhengse said.
Guanyin felt a chill in his heart, and hurriedly reminded: "Lord, this is my idea!" ”
Good fellow, my idea, both of you ran away, leave me behind, won't your conscience hurt?
"I know, it is precisely because of your resourcefulness that this king has to entrust you with important tasks, and the city guard of Yunnan will be handed over to you!" King Liang solemnly patted him on the shoulder and said.
Guanyin Bao: "......"
After King Liang finished speaking, he didn't care about him anymore, and hurriedly went to call his wife and children to prepare to run away, but Guanyin stayed where he was and looked confused.
Two days later, after some rest, the Ming army was divided into two routes, one led by Fu Youde, to the north to meet Guo Ying and others, and the other was led by Mu Ying and Wang Bi, and marched to Yunnan! (End of chapter)
