Chapter 735: My King and Father, Feier's King and Father
An instant later, a burst of much thicker white smoke came out of the Tang Dynasty array. At the same time, the Ming army array on the opposite side almost fell down one after another. Many soldiers in the front row of the phalanx,
There were even so many casualties that the soldiers in the second and third rows behind looked horrified!
Immediately, a small black dot was thrown out again!
This is a grenade!
But this was nothing. What really made the Ming soldiers on the front line feel desperate was that the puppet Tang bandit army on the opposite side had already rushed over in full force!
The next moment, the front row soldiers of both sides collided with each other!
Thirty seconds later, the Ming army's front row formation completely collapsed!
At this time, Lu Yuzhi's cavalry also launched the final charge!
Three minutes later, the left wing of the Ming army completely collapsed!
Seeing that his left wing had completely collapsed, Cheng Hongan sighed deeply, then took out the three letters he had collected recently from his arms, handed them to a middle-aged man next to him, and said: "Send the letters back, my officer."
Horse, be careful."
"Sir, your horse was given to a villain, what should you do?"
Cheng Hongan smiled slightly at this time and said nothing!
The middle-aged man looked hesitant, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely deliver the letter!"
Immediately, he got on his horse and galloped away!
At this time, several other generals also saw that the situation was not good and tried to leave quietly. However, Cheng Hongan glanced at them and immediately shouted: "The country has been raising soldiers for a hundred years, and today is the day when we will die for the country."
hour!"
Then with a cold look on his face: "Anyone who retreats in this battle will be killed!"
While he was speaking, he waved his hand gently, and immediately a group of soldiers around him ran towards the generals who he secretly left, and then mercilessly raised their swords to kill those who tried to escape.
The general was beheaded on the spot!
Ten minutes later, the right wing of the Ming army could no longer hold up and collapsed. No matter how hard Cheng Hongan's personal supervision team fought and killed them, they could not stop their collapse. Even part of the personal supervision team was trapped together.
collapsed.
At this time, Cheng Hongan sat down, then waved, and his entourage immediately handed him a bottle of wine, and then said to a group of generals next to him: "Gentlemen, come and have a drink with me!"
When other people saw Cheng Hongan like this, they all looked a little strange. Some people couldn't help but said: "Sir, withdraw. As long as we divide our forces and break out, we still have a chance to escape partially!"
Cheng Hongan did not answer, but looked straight at him!
The man felt scared when he saw Cheng Hongan. When he looked at the blood on the knife in the hands of Cheng Hongan's soldiers, he immediately closed his mouth. Then, like the others, he came to Cheng Hongan and took a cup in a bowl.
Drink the wine!
It seems to be daughter red, and the aroma of wine lingers for a long time!
Cheng Hongan watched everyone drink and immediately laughed: "Okay!"
Cheng Hongan seemed to have completely given up command of the troops. After the right wing also collapsed, the Chinese army also suffered a huge collapse, with deserters all over the mountains and plains!
A few minutes later, Cheng Hongan stood up, and at his feet were already lying the corpses of more than a dozen generals, all of them bleeding from their orifices and their faces turned black!
This wine is poisonous!
"I am also doing this for your own good. If I am captured and turn into a bandit, I am afraid that your whole family will inevitably have their homes confiscated and exterminated!"
"A cup of daughter's red wine, after all, it is a whole corpse, which is much better than being cut into pieces by the bandits' knives!"
Cheng Hongan looked up again and saw that the bandit army in front was less than a hundred meters away. Without any hesitation, he drank the daughter's red in his hand, then turned to the dozens of soldiers behind him and said: "Everyone
Let’s each run for our lives!”
His generals and subordinates are either his relatives, friends or classmates, teachers and students. He, Cheng Hongan, cannot be captured, let alone surrender to thieves, and neither can they!
As for these ordinary soldiers, even if they were personal soldiers, there was no need to accompany him to death. After hearing this, most of the personal soldiers immediately dropped their weapons, took off their armor, and then joined the defeated army to escape.
went.
But two people stayed!
These two people are both sons of his Cheng family and have been following him for more than ten years. Although they are master and servant, they have known each other for many years, and Cheng Hongan also knows their thoughts!
They want to collect the corpse for themselves!
So Cheng Hongan didn't say anything, then sat back and poured another glass of daughter's red!
Although this wine is poisoned, it is still good wine!
This reminded him of the daughter Hong that he had buried with his own hands when the young daughter was born. Now that the young daughter is twelve years old, she will be able to drink this wine in a few years. Unfortunately, he cannot drink it!
After drinking a glass of wine, he seemed to see the appearance of his mother. She had been traveling in officialdom for many years. Except for Ding You who returned home when his father passed away more than ten years ago, he had never returned to his hometown in these years.
I don’t know if my mother, whom I haven’t seen for more than ten years, is well!
Another drink!
It came to mind that when he was a boy, he passed the college examination and the provincial examination, and became the youngest elected official in his hometown. It was also in that year that he, who was born in poverty, married the granddaughter of an important minister in the court and became the chief minister of a nearby county.
The most glorious young scholar!
Although he failed in the examination at that moment, after studying hard for several years, he passed the examination for the second time and entered the official career!
After serving as an official for decades, he once impeached an old minister with a memorial. He also served as an official in the northern border areas and resisted the plundering of northern barbarians from the south.
He also presided over a government in a remote place, worked hard to manage people's livelihood, and personally worked on the dams to prevent floods during floods.
He also briefly patrolled Fujian Province, during which he suppressed bandits and fought fiercely against Japanese pirates, gaining an official reputation as a soldier who knows how to fight and is good at suppressing Japanese pirates!
Later, it was a pity that he offended the current governor, and he was demoted to Huguang after only one year in office.
When he was desperate, it was his mentor Zhang Yue who recommended him again!
Now he is once again in a desperate situation, but he has no regrets!
He has seen the prosperity of the world, he has enjoyed the glory and wealth, and he has had great power!
It's enough for this life to come to an end!
When he finished another glass of daughter's red, Cheng Hong'an saw a large group of bandits in front of him had already surrounded him. However, these bandits seemed to know that they had met a big shot and did not rush forward in a hurry to fight and kill him.
Instead, a bandit leader came forward. Judging from his age, this man was about the same age as his third son. He was estimated to be seventeen or eighteen years old. Although he was not young, he was at most the age when he had just started a family. However,
This person is already a lieutenant colonel in the thief army. A lieutenant colonel in the thief army is already equivalent to the commander of the guards on his side. At this level, he must at least have the title of prefect. He can do it at a young age.
Based on this high position, it seems that the rumor that most of the generals in the bandit army are young people is true.
Hao Thief, Li Thief and others, plus the lieutenant colonel in front of me, are all young!
I just heard what this person seemed to say, but the wind was strong and I couldn't hear clearly!
Cheng Hongan, who couldn't hear clearly, ignored him and drank another glass of daughter's red!
The rebel lieutenant colonel took a few steps forward, first looked at the corpses of more than a dozen Ming army generals on the ground, and then looked up at the person in front of him: "Then you are Cheng Hong'an?"
Cheng Hongan slowly raised his head at this time, and then his face changed slightly, and he seemed to be frowning, but he still said: "It's me!"
Hearing that Cheng Hong'an admitted his identity, the young lieutenant colonel looked happy. Damn, this is a high official, a real high official. Although the Tang Dynasty had captured many pseudo-officials, this kind of four officials were comparable to the governor.
Pin Jingguan, the commander-in-chief of Du Biao's army, still had no prisoners!
If you capture this man and take him to Zhaoqing, Your Majesty will be delighted!
But before he could be happy, Cheng Hongan stood up unsteadily in front of him, but his expression was not right now, as if he was holding back some pain.
Sad and angry after defeat? I don’t think so!
He had seen many generals and officials of the Ming army who were defeated and captured. Although they were quite sad and angry, their expressions were not like this!
At this time, he turned his attention to the wine jar on the table and a dozen wine glasses scattered on the ground, and then looked at the corpses of a dozen Ming army generals on the ground. He frowned slightly and looked carefully, only to see
Each of these dead Ming army generals had black faces and bleeding from their orifices!
He immediately raised his head and looked at Cheng Hongan: "I have seen many times the general Huo who was defeated and died in battle, but this is the first time I have seen him kill his own men with poison before he died!"
At this time, Cheng Hongan endured the pain and said: "What do you thieves without kings and fathers know!"
At this time, Lieutenant Colonel Huo smiled slightly and said: "Master Cheng, you are wrong. Huo has a father and a king! He is just my father, not yours!"
After hearing this, Cheng Hongan wanted to open his mouth to argue again, but his body became unsteady and he fell to the ground!
Lieutenant Colonel Huo stepped forward to inspect it briefly and shook his head!
"You are foolish enough to return it to your father. I'm afraid your righteous old man wishes that the person you were supervising would die cleanly!"
News of the many internal struggles in the Ming Dynasty would spread to the Tang Dynasty to some extent, especially the high-level personnel changes in the Ming Dynasty, such as Wang Yiqi's arrival and Zhang Yue's independence as evidence. These are actually very easy.
It can be seen by outsiders that Emperor Zhengde's defense against Zhang Yue has reached its peak, and has even begun to impose practical restrictions.
Otherwise, it would not be Wang Yiqi who was in charge of Jiangnan, but Zhang Yue who would be in charge of the six provinces and Jiangnan!
It is not normal for one party to send two supervisors to a war!
Moreover, even Jiangxi, which was originally under the jurisdiction of Zhang Yue, has now been taken away by Wang Yiqi. In the northeastern region of Jiangxi, including Fuzhou, Zhang Yue is now unable to intervene.
Although the Tang Dynasty didn't know much, the basic information was enough for them to know that there seemed to be fierce internal fighting in the Ming Dynasty, and Mr. Zhengde was very guarded against Zhang Yue.
It's a pity that Zhang Yue's confidant general committed suicide. Otherwise, he could be used to make some articles to sow discord between Zhang Yue and Emperor Zhengde!
