0632, Chengxiang County watched the game
After Li Chengdong grabbed the broadsword and mounted his horse, he found that the four large battalions in front and behind, left and right were already in a sea of fire, and countless artillery pieces were still bombing desperately without money.
At present, those who have not been attacked by artillery are left with their own Chinese army battalions.
If you don't leave now, when will you stay?
Li Chengdong jumped off his horse, took off his armor and let a personal soldier put it on, and then dressed himself as an ordinary soldier and led the 5,000 descendants to break through to the south.
The scheming traitor Li Chengdong never expected that in such a chaotic state, someone would know him!
"The traitor Li Hezi (Li Chengdong's nickname in the Dashun Army back then), your death date has arrived, where to go!"
It was none other than Liu Fangliang, the newly sealed and faithful general of the Xiong Prince Daming Kingdom!
It turned out that Chige and Liu Fangliang suddenly received an urgent military order from Peng Wuying, and they must seize Ruijin, Changning, and Dingnan counties within ten days.
On the surface, this is to defend the southeast periphery of Ganzhou City, Chige and Liu Fangliang thought the same at the time, so without the slightest delay, they led the army to set off, trekking all the way through mountains and rivers, except for the war horse to rest when it needs to stop a little, that is really a person does not take off his armor, and the horse does not leave the saddle.
Ruijin County happened to be the location of the Chinese army's big tent of the Manchu Tartar Fengguo general Babutai, and the troops defending the city were the 5,000 cavalry of the Manchurian Zhenghuang Banner.
Babutai is the commander and backup of Lang Qiu, the commander of the left army, and Hu Sha, the deputy commander of Hu Sha, who led 20,000 troops to attack Ganzhou for a long time, and naturally needed to ensure that the grain route was unblocked.
Chige and Liu Fangliang rushed to the west gate of Ruijin City in the middle of the night, but they did not alarm the enemy.
The core force of Chige's shooting battalion was all Mongolian marksmen, and they caught a ten-man team sent back by Langqiu to urge food on the way. Now as soon as he changed his clothes, he raised his waist card on his head, and he was Lang Qiu's subordinates.
It's just that instead of ten people going up, there are three hundred people behind the ten people, who claim to be the guards who escort the grain and grass.
It was not difficult to open the city gate, and it was not difficult to kill the twenty people at the city gate, and the west gate was opened immediately.
Liu Fangliang waved the spear in his hand, and the six thousand cavalry had already rushed into the city and started setting fire. Killing is secondary, arson is primary.
Burning the grain and grass that the Manchu Tartars had managed to hoard and starving tens of thousands of troops on the front line was the main purpose of the long-distance attack, at least that's what Chige and Liu Fangliang thought.
As everyone knows, Peng Wuying's guiding ideology is just the opposite.
It turned out that Babutai was the ninth son of Nurhachi and the uncle of Aisin Jueluo Bolo, the commander of the attack on Fujian.
Peng Wuying ordered Chige to attack the enemy's rear and raid Babutai's Chinese army's tent, hoping that Babutai would ask Bolo for help, slow down Bolo's attack, and respond to the situation in Fujian and Guangdong.
Although Peng Wuying thought of a lot of things, he just didn't expect that Zheng Zhilong would defect to the enemy and Zheng Chenggong would escape.
Boluo's department was not blocked by Xianxia Pass, but drove straight into the hinterland of Fujian, and Zhu Yujian, the emperor of Longwu, had already been killed.
Liu Fangliang's officers and soldiers were all born in the Dashun Army, and what they were most concerned about was what people ate and chewed. The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, and he can't fight without food, this is a very simple truth.
Therefore, after Liu Fangliang's troops rushed into the city, they went straight to the location of the grain and grass and set it on fire, so that Babutai could calmly escape from the county seat.
Although Chige and the soldiers of the Archery Battalion laid an ambush outside the city and used marksmanship to cause Babutai to lose more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, it was now dark, and Babutai's personal safety was not greatly threatened.
In any case, Chige and Liu Fangliang made great achievements, annihilated more than 1,000 enemies, and destroyed the enemy's grain and grass, and the 20,000 troops of Langqiu and Husha had nothing to eat, which played the most direct support for the offensive and defensive battles of Ganzhou City, which was a big victory and belonged to Liu Fangliang.
Chige and Liu Fangliang teamed up to attack the first battle and won a complete victory, and the two brothers, Zhou Chang and Zhou Xi, were the first to get Peng Wuying's order and had already rushed to Changning County.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Chang and Zhou Xi rushed to the destination to see that there was no enemy here. Moreover, from the mouths of the local people, it is known that there is no enemy here at all, and the county order is still appointed by Zhu Yujian, the Longwu Emperor of Fuzhou.
Zhou Chang and Zhou Xi were puzzled: the general manager of the Hengyang camp issued an urgent order, allowing him to give up reinforcing Ganzhou City and attack Changning County for a long time, how could there be no enemy here?
The two of them did not find the enemy, of course, they were unwilling. Anyone who has crossed hundreds of miles over mountains and mountains, but nothing happened, must be unwilling.
Send the entire scout battalion out to investigate, go a hundred miles forward to listen to the news of the surroundings, and be sure to find out the enemy.
The enemy didn't find it, and brought back a herald, and Peng Wuying issued another order: "If the enemy does not break through Xianxia Pass, guard to the northeast." If the enemy has already broken through the Xianxia Pass, he will be on alert to Chengxiang County (now Meizhou) in the southeast. ”
I led nearly 10,000 horses to run so far, and the result was two words: vigilance.
Who is on guard on the battlefield? Those are all idle personnel of the second-line troops.
The two young generals felt that the general manager Peng Wuying must look down on him, which was really unacceptable.
Zhou Chang and Zhou Xi discussed, and finally found a way not to disobey the military order: since you want to be vigilant, you must first find out where the enemy is. In order to find out where the enemy is, it is necessary to make some moves.
Since the general manager Peng Wuying wants to prepare for the two directions by himself, it is okay to divide the troops into two, Zhou Chang led half of the men and horses to guard in the direction of Chengxiang County (now Meizhou), and Zhou Xi led the other half of the men and horses to guard in the direction of Longyan.
If you want to say it's okay, it's definitely okay, and if you want to say it's okay, it's definitely a big thing.
The two guys split up that night and began to "alert" their respective targets the next day.
I never thought that the two little guys were really auspicious, and after three days, they found their own targets that needed vigilance.
The moment Zhou Chang approached Meixian, he discovered the enemy's situation: Zhuo Butai, the Manchurian Yellow Banner Meile Ezhen (Deputy Commander), actually committed evil in Chengxiang County!
After sending capable scouts to make up and observe closely, it was determined that not long after Zhuo Butai had arrived, 1,200 cavalry concentrated their horses on a hillside outside the east gate of the county seat, and only more than 100 people guarded them. The city was ablaze with flames, and the cries were deafening.
After listening to the scout's report, Zhou Chang snorted coldly: "It seems that these Qing dogs are killing people and setting fires, and they must be raped and plundered everywhere." 1,200 people? Master let you have a good time today, so you don't have to go back, just go back to your hometown!"
"Pass my order: send out a thousand people to raid Qinggou's enclosure and drive the war horses back to the master! The rest of the people will follow me into the county seat and send all Qinggou back to their hometown!"
More than 4,500 cavalry were divided into two, as if two giant dragons were swept out horizontally. Zhou Chang wants to completely eliminate the hidden dangers that need to be guarded once and for all.
But just approaching the north gate of the county seat about five miles, Zhou Chang couldn't help but gasp.
A group of people suddenly appeared in the mountains and forests outside the West Gate, and at least 3,000 people rushed into the West Gate shouting.
Looking at the guys in the hands of those people, most of them are farm tools, and then there are a few knives.
"Stop advancing!" Zhou Chang raised his right hand upward: "The current situation is unknown, the scout hurriedly stepped forward to find out, what is the origin of this group of people?"
After not making much effort, the scout came back and reported: "Major General: This is a new army that has just been formed, it is said to be called Wuxing Battalion, and it belongs to a subordinate of Zhang Jiayu. The leader here is called Lai Qixiao, and his lieutenants are Tu Wuzi and Zhong Shengshan. ”
"They claim to be 30,000, but it is observed that there should be only about 10,000. At present, about 4,000 people have stormed the county seat, and there are thousands more hidden in the dense forests southwest of the county, probably preparing to block enemy reinforcements or ambush the enemy who have fled from the city. Major General, what should we do?"
Zhou Chang shook his head: "The situation is unknown, don't act rashly." Quickly inform the people who robbed the enemy's war horse, and immediately take the war horse into the depths of the dense forest to hide. What Wuxing battalion in the county has an absolute advantage in numbers, and it is best not to interfere, and how to deal with it will have to wait and see. ”
Zhou Chang gave an order, and everyone hurriedly dismounted and hidden, conscientiously performing the duty of battlefield vigilance for the first time. The scouts are still lurking to keep track of what's going on inside the city.
Xiong Chu's Praetorian Guards were all trained by him personally, not only did everyone have martial arts, but also their comprehensive qualities were outstanding. In an instant, thousands of people and horses had disappeared into the dense forest, as if they had never appeared.
"Major General: A cavalry suddenly appeared about ten miles south of the city, numbering about two thousand, and no firearms were found, and they were hurrying towards the county seat. However, they are all southern ponies, and although they are not very fast, they can climb the mountains and mountains as if they were walking on the ground. ”
Ten miles is still far away, so there is no need to worry for the time being, so Zhou Chang remained silent: "Explore again, and report any changes at any time!"
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the shouts and killings in the county town became louder and louder. It seems that the battle situation is not very smooth, and there is no end at all. Zhou Chang was condescending and heard clearly.
However, the Purifying Heart Method is not vegetarian. Zhou Chang has been practicing internal strength for more than ten years under the guidance of Xiong Chu, and his age does not seem to be very old, but he has a calmness beyond his age in the face of major events.
The south gate and the east gate are not visible, and they cannot be controlled for the time being. He was now leaning against a large tree motionless, staring closely in the direction of the West Gate and the North City Gate.
The north gate is closed, and the west gate is open. Two miles outside the west gate was a dense forest, and the thousands of people mentioned by the scouts were hidden inside.
Since there are still thousands of reinforcements from others, there is no need for me to do much, let's see, at least wait and see.
In the eyes of ordinary people, 4,000 people rushed into the county town and shouted for half an hour, and it was four to one, and they should be able to win the battle, but this is not the case.
Just when Zhou Chang was waiting a little anxiously, a group of people had already rushed out of the West Gate. It was not a Qing dog dragging pigtails, but a bloodied and disheveled Wuxing battalion team.
More than 4,000 people failed!
Zhou Chang's heart moved, but his body still didn't move, because there were people in the dense forest, and there was no big problem with the safety of the people who rushed out.
Zhou Chang's cautious attitude finally played a vital role at a critical moment.
After about three breaths, Zhou Chang roared coldly: "Check the saddle and weapons, and be ready to attack at any time!"
Sensing that the earth was trembling slightly, Zhou Chang's body fell upside down, just landing on the back of his white horse, and while taking off the iron spear from the saddle bridge, he shouted in a low voice: "All get on the horse, take out the knife!"
It turned out that Zhou Chang found that the remnants of the Wuxing camp that rushed out from the west gate were only less than 2,000 people left.
In other words, if 4,000 men entered the city, half of them would have been lost in half an hour.
If the enemy has already been destroyed, the remaining people will not rush out in a panic.
There is no doubt that more than 2,000 people were lost, and more than 1,000 people of Zhuo Butai were not killed.
The ground trembled slightly, indicating that the reinforcement cavalry in the south of the city was about to arrive.
Since even the more than 1,000 people who did not have war horses in the city could be contained, the thousands of people hidden in the dense forest were afraid that they could not deal with the more than 2,000 cavalry reinforced by the enemy.
Based on this judgment, Zhou Chang was ready to kill the whole army.
