If Lin Ziran, who had already taken the lead and was the first to reach the foot of the mountain, knew about the Guang'an rebels on the other side of the hillside, instead of speeding up the pursuit, he stopped and reorganized his team to prepare for the possible ambush of Luo'an's army.
He will definitely admire the other person's imagination.
But Lin Ziran didn't know, so he continued to escape with his troops.
There have been many retreats in the past two days. No matter what you do more, you will gain more experience. When you gain more experience, you will be able to stay calm in times of crisis.
When a shy young man holds hands with a beautiful girl for the first time, he will probably blush and his heartbeat will speed up, or even a little excited.
But as time goes by, it is estimated that even if the other party is naked and twisting around in front of him, he will be able to play the game without any emotion!
Maybe you will also say: "Put on your clothes quickly, be careful of catching a cold!"
The soldiers of Qingshan Patrol Camp have run away a lot in the past two days, so they have gained experience in running away.
When Lin Ziran ran to the bottom of the mountain, he looked back and found that no one was left behind. They all ran down smoothly.
Although there was no formation or anything like that, it was just a large, noisy mass of people, but it was much better than the previous few times when people disappeared while running around.
When we retreated for the first time yesterday, more than a hundred people disappeared in the mere 1,000-meter retreat route. In the end, Lin Ziran sent cavalry to find them. Otherwise, who knows where they would have gone.
go.
It's much better now. Although it's still noisy and peaceful, everyone is finally together.
After looking back, Lin Ziran, who felt that his Qingshan Patrol Battalion had made some progress in retreating, waved again: "Let's go, everyone, follow us!"
After that, Wu Dajiang, Lu Sanzhen and others behind them were asked to organize their formation. They were in a hurry at the beginning, and naturally they couldn't care about the formation. But now they have reached the foot of the mountain, although they still continue to run.
, but the opponent didn't seem to catch up, and they were able to take advantage of this opportunity to organize their formation.
While retreating toward the east, Lin Ziran did not forget to send cavalry to serve as messengers and head toward the northwest to find Jian Liangzhi and others to report the battle situation.
At this time, Jian Liangzhi and the others were about two kilometers away in the northwest. The distance could be said to be very close. However, the three parties were in the middle of the movement and were separated by several hills and mountains, so they could not see each other for a while.
The speed of the messengers was very fast. The straight-line distance was more than two kilometers. Although the cavalry would take detours when running and could not cross mountains and ridges, they quickly found Jian Liangzhi and others and reported the battle situation.
Jian Liangzhi, who was already a Shaoqing, learned from the military order that the two sides conducted a pursuit operation in the early morning. Just half an hour ago, Lin Ziran led the troops to engage in a sniper battle. However, the enemy troops were fierce, and this time
Zhan Qie retreated and immediately smiled!
He immediately said to the messenger: "Go back and inform your master that my army will launch an attack on the enemy. Let your master organize the troops to prevent the enemy from being defeated and fleeing to the east!"
After finishing the instructions, Jian Liangzhi said to the left and right: "It seems that Lin Ziran is still capable and delayed the enemy for a lot of time!"
At this time, a person appeared behind Jian Liangzhi. It was none other than Lin Ziran's old acquaintance Hao Ren, and the military title badge on his collar was no longer a sergeant, but a junior doctor.
This guy got promoted.
I only heard Hao Ren say: "What your Excellency said is true. The staff department and Lin Yingguan have worked together to escort the baggage many times. I still know a little about this man. Although his patrol camp is not very useful, Lin Yingguan personally is still
Somewhat brave!"
Another bystander said: "Lin Yingguan led a weak force of only 400 patrol battalions. Yesterday, he began to attack the bandits many times. In the early hours of this morning, they marched all night and conducted an interception operation. Although they failed to completely control the bandits, they
The bandits stopped us, but this bought us enough time!"
Jian Liangzhi and others led the army to encircle and suppress the Guang'an raiding force. They knew very well that the more than 500 Guang'an rebels in front were not ordinary Guang'an rebels, but proper elite troops.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken more than half a month to expel them here. You must know that Jian Liangzhi has a main force of nearly 3,000 people, including more than 1,500 main cavalry.
They spent a lot of effort to separate the other Guang'an cavalry, and then concentrated their forces to encircle and suppress the Guang'an infantry battalion. Even so, they pursued it continuously for several days.
But what about the patrol camp under Lin Ziran!
Last year, Jian Liangzhi saw it with his own eyes. It was said to be an army, but it was just a group of young men. Although as time goes by, the Qingshan Patrol Battalion will be much better after training.
However, the Qingshan Patrol Battalion was attacked many times while escorting the baggage. Most of the time, they could only passively wait for rescue. A few times, they simply ran away when they were forced to leave. To be honest, the overall performance was not very good.
It is not easy to lead such a patrol battalion and be able to attack and delay the march of the Guang'an rebels many times without suffering too much loss.
Even if it were him, Jian Liangzhi, who personally led a patrol battalion, it would probably be difficult to do better.
So overall, Jian Liangzhi was quite satisfied with Lin Ziran's performance this time, and even thought about seeing if he could recruit Lin Ziran.
In his opinion, this Lin Ziran still has some abilities. If he is trained properly, it is not impossible to lead a battalion in the future.
Having more talented subordinates under his command would be a good thing for himself and the Jian family.
The Jian family, as the ruling family in Luo'an County for generations, has maintained its wealth and honor for more than two hundred years.
But wealth and power are two different things. It has only been in the past ten years that the Jian family has truly gained control of power. In the past ten years, the Jian family has been able to maintain its power because it relies on more than just the name of the Qing family.
In this troubled world, apart from being nice to listen to, it is basically useless.
Because in troubled times, having soldiers and guns is the way to go. Many generals with military power relied on the troops in their hands to separatize one area after another, thus evolving into the vassal towns that are now everywhere in Daheng.
Cheng Lingfeng, the governor of Luo'an County, is a very typical example. Cheng Lingfeng used to be just an ordinary general in Nanhai Prefecture, but more than ten years ago, he became the master of Luo'an County and Guang'an County.
What does it rely on?
It relies on the tens of thousands of troops in his hands.
This shows that in troubled times, controlling the army is the way to go.
Cheng Lingfeng, the governor of Luo'an County, understands this, as does Jian Liangzhi.
But what Jian Liangzhi didn't know yet was that Lin Ziran also understood it, even more than they knew.
