In the early morning of 1 May, the rallying horn of the Sharp Knife Army had already sounded, and in a short time, the team of 7,000 people had all lined up outside Gangneung City.

Zhang Yongjie rode a wind-chasing horse, inspected the sharp knife army in front of the battle, and saw the neat appearance of the army and the banner waving in the wind, showing the strength of the army, Zhang Yongjie was very enthusiastic in his heart.

After giving some passionate speeches, Zhang Yongjie announced that he would go directly to Fujian.

Under Li Geng's planning, the Sharp Knife Army is quite complete. Although it was 800 people, the actual number reached 7,000. Therefore, with a scale of 7,000 people, Li Geng set up a vanguard brigade, two partial armies, and a rear army, in addition to the information investigation troops, logistics troops, etc., which are quite perfect.

Zhang Yongjie considered that the actual number of the Sharp Knife Army had reached more than 7,000 people, so the setting of each department could not be completely in accordance with the establishment given by Lord Hu Butang. Several deputy general officials couldn't cope with the reality at all, so they acquiesced to Li Geng's arrangement.

As soon as Zhang Yongjie acquiesced, Li Geng was extremely satisfied, because all this was carried out according to his plan. In this way, although he is only a deputy commander, he is actually doing the work of a deputy commander. He will win a few more battles in the future, and then show the court, isn't this a matter of glory to the ancestors?

The Sharp Knife Army marched all the way, passing through Changsha, Ji'an and other places, and finally reached Longtai, Fujian, which was already 20 May.

The military order of the lord of the ministry only said that he would go to Fujian, but there was no clear indication of where to go. Zhang Yongjie and the generals in the army discussed for a while, and decided to stay directly in Longtai City to set up defenses, and wait for further instructions from the ministers.

Liu Yonggui, the prefect of Longtai, was extremely happy when he learned of the arrival of the Sharp Knife Army. This is the hardest hit area of the Japanese invaders, because the Japanese invaders practiced the strategy of firing one shot for one cannon, wandering around, to the encirclement and suppression of the Ming army, brought great inconvenience.

When the army came, the pirates fled. When the army was gone, the pirates came. Liu Yonggui, the prefect of Longtai, has long been overwhelmed, and just relying on the hundreds of errands in his hands, he can cope with the public security, but when he goes into battle to kill the enemy, he is not able to do it.

Liu Yonggui personally led officials at all levels to invite the relevant generals of the Sharp Knife Army to a banquet in the mansion. After Liu Yonggui complained for a while, Zhang Yongjie decided to do so before the new order of the ministry arrived. The Sharp Knife Army fought a battle with the Japanese in Longtai first, and completely wiped out the Japanese in the vicinity of Longtai Mansion.

Liu Yonggui immediately vacated part of the room in the palace and was in front of Zhang Yongjie's Chinese army commander.

At this time, it was already midnight, but the stakes were very high, and Zhang Yongjie decided to immediately raise the account and convene relevant personnel to discuss the matter.

The first military meeting was attended by Cao Zhenchun, the supervising army, Zhang Zhi, the logistics director, Zhao Wei, the general of the partial army, the general Shangguan Yundun, the general Tang of the Chinese army, the general Situ Xiongwu of the Chinese army, and local officials such as Liu Zhifu of Longtai Prefecture.

And the pioneer general Liu Shuang, the spy general You Jinda and the self-proclaimed deputy general Li Geng were absent from the meeting, and I don't know what the three of them did.

Zhang Yongjie knew that during the evening banquet, the three of them left the table, and it had been five or six hours now, and he didn't know what they were doing.

In order to show his leadership position, Cao Gonggong took the lead in speaking in front of Zhang Yongjie, and Cao Gonggong said: "Since ancient times, the first battle will be won." If this battle is lost, it will be extremely bad for the morale of our army. Now let Governor Liu introduce the enemy situation, and then everyone will discuss it and see how we should lay out this first battle. ”

Liu Yonggui bowed to the generals and said, "This government has already ascertained that in Hua'an City, seventy miles to the east of this place, there is a group of Japanese robbers, numbering about 3,000 people. This group of robbers gathered in Hua'an City and could be killed at any time, which was a great hidden danger to the safety of Longtai. ”

When you heard that this Japanese coquette had even occupied my Daming city, you immediately rubbed your hands and asked for battle, and you must dispose of this group of pirates.

At this moment, an urgent bell rang from the head of the city, apparently an enemy was coming. Liu Yonggui slapped the table and shouted: "Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived, it is obvious that this group of Japanese robbers has already been killed." ”

Zhang Yongjie, Cao Gonggong and others never imagined that the would-be wouldn't come so quickly, and both of them had a bad premonition in their hearts.

The Japanese came so quickly, the Sharp Knife Army was unprepared, and was caught off guard, can they have a chance of winning?

Gonggong Cao remembered that he had just said that 'the first battle must be won', and now that the Japanese invaded suddenly, this first battle was probably going to fail.

Gonggong Cao sighed in his heart, and he had already begun to prepare for the question of what kind of language should be used to motivate the morale of the Sharp Sword Army after the defeat in the first battle.

Zhang Yongjie took the Golden Moon Gun and shouted: "Everyone has boarded the east gate and will take a look at the situation first." ”

When Liu Yonggui heard Zhang Yongjie's arrangement, he was immediately frightened, will this General Zhang fight? I feel like a Master Huang who has no experience in fighting at all, can such a general win a war?

Liu Yonggui hurriedly said: "General Zhang, the battle is not fought like this, everyone has climbed the east gate, and the Japanese invaders enter from the north gate, the west gate and the south gate, what should we do? There are still hundreds of thousands of people in the city, what should we do?"

As soon as Zhang Yongjie heard that it made sense, he immediately ordered: "Zhao Wei leads the team to be in charge of the north gate, Shangguan Yundun is in charge of the west gate, Situ Xiongwu is in charge of the south gate, and the rest of the people will follow me to the east gate." ”

Only then did the Sharp Knife Army and a group of local officials leave the hall, ready to lead the team to their respective posts.

Zhang Yongjie led the team to wait for the East City Tower, only to know that outside the city gate, the sharp knife army had already fought with the Japanese Kou, the flames were soaring, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

Zhang Yongjie felt inexplicable, how could someone go out of the city without permission?

Zhang Yongjie was furious and said casually: "What's the matter? I haven't issued a military order yet, why has the Sharp Knife Army already gone out of the city to meet the enemy?"

Immediately, a small soldier stepped forward and replied: "General Zhang, General Li Geng is already fighting with the Japanese Kou." ”

Zhang Yongjie took a big breath, he hadn't given a combat order yet, this Li Geng actually dared to fight without authorization?

More serious things are still to come, and after a while, Zhao Wei, Shangguan Yundun, Situ Xiongwu and other chief officials have returned to the East Gate Tower.

Seeing this, Zhang Yongjie said angrily: "Why did you come back? Who will defend the other city gates?"

Zhao Wei said at this time: "There are no Japanese in the other city gates, not to mention, there is a problem here. ”

Zhang Yongjie asked, "What's the problem?"

Situ Xiongwu had known Zhang Yongjie for a long time, and immediately said: "Li Geng pulled all the people out of the city, and we have no one on our hands." ”

Zhang Yongjie, Cao Zhenchun and others felt incredible when they heard this. Not to mention Li Geng's unauthorized battle, he also pulled all the family members of the Sharp Knife Army out of the city to confront the Japanese invaders.

Zhang Yongjie, Cao Zhenchun, and others were all wondering in their hearts, what kind of trick is this Li Geng doing? How can he play a child's play when fighting in the army? Li Geng's actions have already violated military orders and must be severely punished.

Liu Yonggui heard the conversation of the general of the Sharp Knife Army next to him, and he was frightened. Li Geng was a single commander, and he could also transfer all the elite of the Sharp Knife Army out of the city to meet the enemy? What kind of troops are these?

Can such an army with a chaotic command system win a battle? Liu Yonggui's mood at this moment has fallen to the point of no return. He didn't have any hope for the Sharp Knife Army at the moment.

Liu Yonggui sighed, took advantage of the night, observed the battle outside the city, and saw that the sharp knife army was extremely brave and had the upper hand, and he was greatly relieved, so he did not panic.

Liu Yonggui hurriedly said to Zhang Yongjie: "Congratulations to General Zhang, observing the current battle situation, General Li Geng has completed the encirclement of the Japanese invaders, and when the Japanese are completely annihilated, it is not far away, let's watch the battle here." ”

The two sides fought for another three quarters of an hour, and the shouts of killing outside the city had already quieted down, and all the chattering outside the city was Chinese. Zhang Yongjie and others waited for them, and only then did they know that Li Geng had already won the victory and fought a big victory.

Zhang Yongjie led officials at all levels to open the east gate to welcome Li Geng. At this time, Li Geng rode a tall horse and had already returned to the east gate.

Li Geng's whole body was covered in blood, but his spirit was extremely uplifted. Seeing Zhang Yongjie and others waiting at the city gate, he immediately smiled and said: "Big brother, we have achieved the goal of winning the first battle by annihilating all 3,000 Japanese invaders. You should reward me for a drink, haha. ”

Zhang Yongjie took his hand and asked, "How do you know that the Japanese are coming tonight?"

Li Geng smiled: "I asked them to come." ”

It turned out that during the dinner, Liu Yonggui talked about the matter of the Japanese Invaders, and he was very troubled. Even if Li Gengdang wanted to show Liu Yonggui and other local officials a hand and show the military might of the Sharp Knife Army, he pulled the spies to bring out the chief You Jinda and the vanguard general Liu Shuang.

Li Geng's plan was very simple, he asked Liu Shuang to pull most of the men into Longtai City, leaving only 800 soldiers outside the city, and let them deliberately act as loosely disciplined.

The spy took the general Eugenda, and soon found the nearby Japanese Invaders, and revealed the news that the Sharp Knife Army had been stationed in Longtai to the Japanese Invaders.

Judging from Hu Butang's military order, the Japanese really thought that there were only 800 people in the Sharp Knife Army, so they immediately led all the men and horses to kill Longtai, ready to teach the Sharp Knife Army a lesson.

By the time the 3,000 Japanese invaders slaughtered outside Longtai City, Li Geng had already relied on the terrain here, laid a trap, and then pulled all the more than 6,000 sharp sword troops in the city out of the city, and finally surrounded and annihilated the Japanese invaders.

Li Geng said proudly: "I have already sent Liu Shuang to take Hua'an City and cut off the back road of the Japanese Kou." Even if one of the pirates escaped from the battlefield, they had already lost their rear base and could not escape death. ”

Hearing Li Geng's story, everyone knows that this Li Geng did win a big battle, and it was not an ordinary defeat battle, it was a war of annihilation, and it was a complete victory.

Liu Yonggui was of course the happiest person, he never thought that a small general of the Sharp Knife Army at the level of General Ba could actually have such a superb art of war command.

Zhang Yongjie said with a dark face: "You didn't get permission from Shangfeng, you didn't say anything about going to war, and you also mobilized other teams, do you know that you have violated military law, do you know the consequences?"

Li Geng was a little scared when he saw Zhang Yongjie look like this, but he pretended to be calm and said, "This, uh." Anyway, more than 3,000 Japanese have been wiped out, and I have won a great victory, and I am already satisfied. What do you want to do with it, big brother, you can just watch it. ”

Zhang Yongjie heard how arrogant Li Geng said this, and was about to speak and scold. Gonggong Cao said with a smile: "Hide from Shangfeng, go out to fight privately, according to military law, you should be beheaded." ”

Li Geng heard what Gonggong Cao said should be beheaded according to military law, he was immediately frightened, he still had a lot of formations in his heart that had not been used, and now he joined the army to fight the Japanese invaders, it was a good time to show his ambitions, but he was suddenly about to be beheaded.

Li Geng was so frightened that he couldn't speak, and sat on the horse in a daze, Zhang Yongjie couldn't bear to continue to scold when he saw this situation, after all, the results of the battle of 3,000 people were already in front of him.

Zhang Yongjie walked over, grabbed the horse rope, and said: "You have violated military law and should be beheaded, but you have merit in exterminating the Japanese invaders, and this time the merits and demerits will be offset and will not be investigated." But if there is a next time, I will not spare it. ”

Li Geng listened to Zhang Yongjie's words, and knew that this time he had made a private layout, and even if the matter of facing the Japanese was over, he immediately laughed heartily, and explained that he would not dare anymore.

The prefect Liu Yonggui also came to play a round, and immediately said: "General Li Geng has won a big victory, and my 'Sharp Knife Army' has won a big victory in the first battle, which is really good." Come on, come on, this government has ordered someone to prepare a feast, let's rest for a while, and celebrate later. ”

Just when everyone reopened the banquet, the subordinate soldiers had already cleaned up the battlefield and reported the battle report. In this battle, more than 2,800 enemies were annihilated, more than 3,000 sabers were captured, and more than 700 horses were captured.

Looking at Li Geng's smug look, Zhang Yongjie was excited and a little worried. I am excited that Li Geng has won such a big victory, and he is a rare talent. The worry is that this Li Geng should not get carried away, so as not to lose the battle in the future.

Because Zhang Yongjie is more suspicious and wants to do things well, he is most annoyed by not knowing things. Although the Sharp Knife Army won a big victory this time, in Zhang Yongjie's view, this battle was won in a daze, and it was inevitable that there was a bit of a false fire in his heart, so Zhang Yongjie decided to personally control the overall situation, and he had to personally inquire about major affairs in the army.

The next day, Zhang Yongjie collected the command of the army in front of the 7,000 people of the whole army and collected it into his own hands, which made him feel down-to-earth.

Zhang Yongjie thought to himself, this Li Geng does have a way of fighting, but he often hides himself, so that he, the leading figure, does not know anything about the battle situation, how can this work?

After a few more days, the spies brought the general Eugenda to the enemy, and the enemy situation was discovered near Zhangzhou City, which was more than 300 miles to the southeast. There were about 2,000 pirates wandering over there.

Zhang Yongjie immediately ordered all the soldiers and horses, dispatched 3,000 men and horses, and rushed to Zhang Zhou with murderous spirits, preparing to teach the Japanese Kou over there a good lesson, and let them know the awesomeness of Zhang Shaoxia on the Thousand Islands.
