"Haha, that's great." Wang Shuo was overjoyed when he heard this and shouted to the surrounding Tumu, "Have you heard that? There are thousands of female soldiers. This time we can make the men happy enough!"
After a pause, Wang Shuo shouted again: "Get ready to take action!"
Wang Shuo gave an order, and the soldiers from Xiwushidong Division divided into the woods on both sides.
After waiting for almost an hour, the sound of neat footsteps came from the official road ahead.
When Wang Shuo hurriedly looked out, he saw groups of officers and soldiers approaching along the official road in central Guizhou, led by white soldiers holding white spears. Wang Shuo's brows tightened.
These white-armed soldiers of Shili Division are not easy to mess with.
But fortunately, there are not many white-armed soldiers in Shili Division, only about a thousand or so.
Following the white-pole soldiers came the female soldiers, many of whom had graceful figures that could not be concealed even with cloth masks. Wang Shuo's breathing became rapid.
After a while, the officers and soldiers entered the chicken's back without any precautions.
"Blow the trumpet!" Wang Shuo immediately roared, "trap them to death!"
A team of trumpeters behind Wang Shuo immediately blew the horns. Along with the distant sound of horns, Xiwushidong native soldiers with oil paint on their faces poured out from the woods like a tide.
The entrance and exit of the cock's back were immediately blocked.
Seeing this, Wang Shuo had a proud smile on his face.
This group of officers and soldiers has fallen into a desperate situation and has no luck.
But soon, the smile on Wang Shuo's face froze.
The officers and soldiers who were trapped on the back of the rooster did not panic at all. Instead, they began to form a formation in an orderly manner. The sword players were in the front row, the musketeers were in the back, and finally there were the largest number of spearmen.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of officers and soldiers formed a tight circular defense formation.
Now the unfavorable terrain on Jigong's back turned into an advantage for the officers and soldiers.
Because the passage into the male's back from both ends is relatively narrow, the number of troops deployed at one time is limited.
A Tumu said to Wang Shuo: "Toast, there is something wrong with the terrain on which the rooster you chose is carrying. I'm afraid it will be difficult for our people to hit the rooster's back."
"You know what the heck, I didn't say we were going to attack by force."
Wang Shuo said angrily: "This chicken's back is a desperate place. The officers and soldiers can't find any water source on the chicken's back. They will be thirsty in half a day and will completely collapse in three days. By then we will be able to do it without any trouble."
We can eat this group of officers and soldiers with little effort, but the key is to capture the female soldiers of the officers and soldiers alive, hehe."
"Oh, right." Tumu also started laughing ferociously.
But soon, the smiles on their faces froze again.
Because just as the two of them were laughing, a swan sound suddenly sounded from the mountain col opposite, and there was also the sound of war drums as dense as raindrops.
"What is this sound? The sound of military trumpets?"
Wang Shuo's face instantly became extremely embarrassed. Is there more than one army?
Wang Shuo's suspicion soon turned into reality. A moment later, another group of officers and soldiers came out of the mountain col on the opposite side. After leaving the mountain col, they set up their formations in a short period of time.
From this point, it is enough to see that this officer is well-trained.
"Touchin, this is bad." Tumu's face immediately fell. "The three thousand men who stayed on the opposite side were surrounded by the army, and we can't help the men on the other side."
At this moment, the situation on the battlefield took a turn for the worse.
The 6,000 native soldiers who were originally from the Xiwushidong Division were divided into two groups, one east and one west, and trapped the 3,000 officers and soldiers who came to rescue the Wang family's caravan on the back of the bare Jigong. The terrain on the Jigong's back was extremely dangerous.
, it was difficult for the local soldiers of Xiwu Shidong Division to break in, but it was impossible for the trapped officers and soldiers to break out again.
If this drags on for a few days, the officers and soldiers will definitely not be able to bear it.
You can survive seven days without eating, but you can survive up to three days without drinking water.
After three days, the trapped officers and soldiers will become lambs to be slaughtered.
But now, at least four thousand officers and soldiers have arrived from the direction of Yongning Prefecture.
As a result, the three thousand soldiers on the opposite side were trapped in a dilemma.
Tumu said: "Touchin, why don't you retreat quickly? It's still too late."
"Shut up." Wang Shuo said with a dark face, "Retreat? Do you think we can outrun Shili Division's white-armed soldiers? If we form a defensive formation and have a favorable terrain, we can still fight. If we turn around,
If you run away, you will only become the prey of the white-armed soldiers, and sooner or later they will hunt them down one by one. The white-armed soldiers are not easy to mess with!"
Yunnan native soldiers often boast that they can walk over mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground.
But the soldiers with stone and white poles can climb over cliffs as if they were walking on flat ground.
Tumu said: "If we don't withdraw, we will have to fight hard."
"Just fight hard." Wang Shuo said angrily, "First eat the thousands of officers and soldiers on the back of the chicken, and then concentrate all your efforts to eat the thousands of officers and soldiers who come behind. The sword player goes first, and the flutter player follows!
"
…
Li Xiangjun and Qin Liangyu were on Jigong's back at this time.
When the two men led a thousand white soldiers and two thousand female soldiers to reach the back of the chicken, it was almost dusk. By now, the sky had gradually darkened, and things could only be seen at a very close distance.
Seeing the thieves taking the initiative to attack, Li Xiangjun shouted: "We have them all, hold up the torch!"
"No!" Qin Liangyu hurriedly stopped Li Xiangjun and said, "Girl, please don't light a torch, especially in the morning and dusk. It is taboo to hold a torch."
"Why?" Li Xiangjun was puzzled.
Qin Liangyu said: "Girl, you must have heard of the Battle of Salhu, right?"
"Of course." Li Xiangjun nodded, "This is the battle for the rise of Jiannu."
Qin Liangyu said again: "Then do you know why Jun Song lost to the old slave?"
Li Xiangjun's heart moved slightly and asked: "Is it because of the torch?"
"By the way, it's because of the torches," Qin Liangyu said, "because it was dusk when Jiannu launched his attack on the Ming army, and the light was dim, so the Ming army lit up torches one after another, and as a result, Jiannu's archers attacked secretly.
opportunity, but the Ming army's musketeers made no achievements because they could not see the Jiannu archers in the darkness."
Li Xiangjun said: "The archers of Yunnan Chieftain are also very powerful?"
"The Yunnan chieftain's archers are not very powerful." Qin Liangxia shook his head and added, "But their blowgun players are very powerful. Although the range of blowing arrows is far less than that of bows and arrows, they are more accurate and are highly poisonous!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As he was talking, a "bang bang" sound suddenly sounded from the front, and the musketeers from the female barracks opened fire.
However, the female barracks are not equipped with the latest flintlock guns, but the previously eliminated Lumi guns. Although the rate of fire of Lumi guns is not as fast as that of flintlock guns, their lethality is almost the same.
Two thousand female soldiers were divided into six teams and took turns to fight.
Just enough to block the entrance to the cock's back.
…
The sound of gunfire rang out, and a row of soldiers on the opposite side fell instantly.
The Yunnan native soldier's red rattan brand is good at blocking arrows, but not good at blocking guns.
Most of the Yunnan soldiers in front fell down in an instant, and the soldiers in the back quickly stepped up, picked up their shields woven from red vines, and continued to advance.
But soon, another row of bullets rained down.
Amidst the screams one after another, another row of Yunnan soldiers fell into a pool of blood. Then the third row of soldiers came up again, but soon fell into a pool of blood again.
The Tubing Dao player finally got cold and did not dare to move forward.
The soldiers who followed up could only raise their blowpipes and blow poisonous arrows randomly at the Ming army who were at least thirty steps away. This distance and the light at dusk made it basically a blind blow.
One row of arrow blowers blows out poisonous arrows, and then they switch to the second row.
The Ming army musketeers on the opposite side were not idle either, taking turns firing cannons.
Such cross-fire was obviously very detrimental to the soldiers.
As more and more sword players fell to the ground, Tumu finally couldn't bear it anymore.
After obtaining Wang Shuo's approval, Tumu immediately issued an order to retreat.
At this time, the fatal weakness of the soldiers was exposed, their lack of organization and discipline!
A well-trained army can basically advance and retreat in an orderly manner. It does not fight or grab when advancing, and alternately covers when retreating. The most taboo thing is to rush away.
In fact, Tumu also left a person with a severed hand, but it was of no use.
As soon as the native soldiers and the main force of the native soldiers stepped forward with their front legs, the broken native soldiers followed suit with their hind legs. In an instant, the native soldiers who seemed to be menacing just now turned into stragglers.
Qin Liangyu accurately captured the fighter plane.
Immediately ordered a thousand white soldiers to launch a pursuit.
Li Xiangjun asked Qin Liangyu again: "Master, how to distinguish whether the enemy's army is truly defeated or falsely defeated?"
"There is no absolute standard here." Qin Liangyu shook his head and said, "You can only make a judgment based on experience and your understanding and familiarity with the enemy."
Pointing to the Yunnan native soldiers who fled in front, Qin Liangyu continued: "For example, the Yunnan native soldiers in the front have poor discipline as far as I know, so even if they lure the enemy, they can fake a rout and become a real rout! But if the opponent changes,
If it is a Jiannu, that is a different matter, because Jiannu is very disciplined and can retreat in large strides at any time and under any circumstances, and can also launch a counterattack at any time and under any circumstances without warning."
After a pause, Qin Liangyu continued: "In short, fighting is actually the same as learning to play the piano. If you practice more, you can become a qualified piano player. In the same way, as long as you fight more, you can always become a qualified general. As for being able to
If you can't become an excellent general, it depends on your talent and understanding."
Finally he said: "Girl, your understanding is very good."
"Given time, I hope to become a famous general."
"Master, is it true?" Li Xiangjun's beautiful eyes sparkled.
"Really." Qin Liangyu nodded and added, "But there is also an obstacle on your road to becoming a famous general, and it is probably not easy to get around this obstacle."
Li Xiangjun didn't ask what the obstacle was, and Qin Liangyu didn't say anything either.
But Li Xiangjun was smart and had already guessed the answer.
The biggest obstacle is the Holy One, who will not really let her lead the army.
While the two were talking, both groups of rebels in the east and west had collapsed.
The female barracks did not act rashly, but the white soldiers were chasing and killing them all over the mountains and plains.
…
Two days later, the news that the white pole soldiers and the female barracks defeated the Xiwushidong Division in Jigongbei, Yongning Prefecture, came back to Qujing. The six thousand native soldiers of the Xiwushidong Division were almost wiped out.
Even the chieftain Wang Shuo became a prisoner of the white pole soldiers.
Before Hu Guozhu's cavalry and Yan Yingyuan's new army arrived, the war in Guizhou was over.
After reading the Tang newspaper, Chongzhen couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He thought that Qin Liangyu was seventy-two years old, but he was still so good at fighting, but it was a pity that he was already late as a famous general.
In addition to the good news in Yongning, there are two other pieces of good news.
First, Zhang Jiayu sent news that the stolen property transported back to Guangzhou by Ding Kuichu's servants had been intercepted. It contained more than 500 mules, horses and donkeys, weighing at least 100,000 kilograms.
In addition, the private treasures of the forty-eight leaders have been recovered.
There are more than 12,000 boxes, all of which are pearls, agates, emeralds, dense wax, amber, ivory, purple gold, horseshoe gold, rhinoceros horns and other treasures. To be honest, Chongzhen has never seen so many treasures in his two lifetimes.
treasure.
The original version of Chongzhen, as an emperor, had never seen so many treasures. The collection in the secret key library of the inner court was not even as good as that of the Duke of Guizhou.
That’s why we say that the unlucky guy Chongzhen is really poor.
If we rank the more than 400 emperors of ancient China according to their wealth, it's hard to say who the richest is, but the poorest is probably Chongzhen, except for those puppet emperors.
After breathing a sigh of relief, Chongzhen's eyes fell on Hu Renzhi again.
Hu Renzhi just arrived in Qujing yesterday, and he also arrived with 10,000 shi of grain.
"Hu Renzhi, I have good news for you." Chongzhen said, "Wang Pingshan is fine. He was rescued by white-pole soldiers."
Hu Renzhi breathed a long sigh of relief after hearing this. It's great that Wang Pingshan was fine. Otherwise, the Wang and Hu families would have suffered a huge loss this time, losing a lot of money and costing so many lives.
Chongzhen asked again: "Hu Renzhi, can you give me an accurate answer now? When will the remaining 500,000 shi of military rations be transported from Pu'an Prefecture to Qujing Prefecture?"
"It will definitely arrive before the end of November." Hu Renzhi was a lot more cautious this time.
Last time, because it was delayed for nearly a month, we paid a full compensation of 300,000 taels of silver.
"What about the freight?" Chongzhen then asked, "How much does it cost to transport it from Pu'an to Qujing?"
Hu Renzhi took out a small abacus and calculated for a moment, and then replied: "150,000 taels or 70,000 shi of grain."
"Okay, I will give you 150,000 taels of silver." Chongzhen said, "But don't make any mistakes this time. The remaining 500,000 taels of military rations must be transported to Qujing Mansion before the end of November."
After a pause, Chongzhen said again: "Don't feel depressed because you have lost money. As long as you, Wang and Hu, can do errands for me for the imperial court, I will never treat you two badly."
Hu Renzhi's eyes suddenly lit up. Is this a good thing?
"There is indeed a good thing for you two." Chongzhen smiled and turned around to tell Gao Qiqian, "Gao Banban, show the treasure list to Shopkeeper Wang."
Gao Qiqian responded and handed a long list to Hu Renzhi.
When he first received the list, Hu Renzhi's expression was normal, but after just one glance, his eyes suddenly widened and he stood there blankly. So many treasures?
I have never seen so many treasures in my life!
After a long while, Hu Renzhicai finally came back to his senses.
"Have you finished reading?" Chongzhen smiled and said, "Hu Renzhi, please give me an estimate first. How much silver are the treasures on the list worth in total?"
