Chapter 1385
It was already afternoon when Ying Yi arrived at Shoushan.
If he was alone, he would have a maximum of one hour on his feet, but with Zhang Silingen following him, even though he was riding fast and lightly, it was a lot slower.
"Master!"
Zheng Wu stood up and beat his chest, his eyes were different from before.
Zheng Wu is the son of the Zheng Family, and now he is called the lord Ying Yi. Just seeing how many soldiers around him are crazy, Ying Yi can't help but feel happy.
The great magic of the humanitarian platform and the humanitarian list is vividly and thoroughly reflected in the military.
The fighting intent of the soldiers, obvious at a glance.
Ying Yi nodded: "Go in and talk."
Entering the camp, Zheng Wu immediately informed the bandit army: "There are nearly 10,000 bandits, all of them old, weak, sick and disabled. , since Kaifeng, it will arrive in Xiangcheng before dark. Zhu Bu will come from Xiangcheng to discuss with his subordinates, if the lord has not arrived, he will fight with the bandit army, if the lord has arrived, he will obey the lord's instructions ."
Ying Yi heard this, no wonder Zhu Bingkun was not seen, and said, "You captured Xiangcheng?" Xiangcheng is an empty city, so we divided our troops and occupied it."
Ying Yi nodded: "Since it is an empty city, it's okay to occupy it, just like the horns of Shoushan, to keep watch over each other. The thieves will be dark? What's the situation now?"
Zheng Wudao: "It's about one hour before it gets dark, just wait for the night before I receive a report."
Ying Yi said with a smile: "I'm here this time. Leading the troops north to Kaifeng Mansion, I plan to have a fight with the thieves. As soon as the thieves arrive, it’s okay to try it out. Trifling nearly 10,000 old and weak, so I will use it as a whetstone to sharpen my blade.”
Zheng Wu and all the generals were overjoyed.
They are eager to fight - the Humane Ranking. Although only 900 people in the army are on the list, the news has spread. Killing the enemy and making meritorious deeds, adding Human Dao Fate, can be seen in a trickle, no longer worry about being greedy for ink or going on business trips, because everyone wants to fight, everyone must make meritorious deeds.
The fighting spirit in the army is fiery, winning the next attractive spectacle. After chatting with Zheng Wu for a moment, let him be fully prepared, and then went down the mountain to Xiangcheng County.
When I arrived in Xiangcheng County, I saw that the city was full of vegetation, and it really was depressed.
Zhu Bingkun received the news early and brought a group of battalion generals to greet him. After entering the city, Ying Yi asked, "Where has the bandit army gone?"
Zhu Bingkun hearing this hurriedly said: "Maybe something went wrong."
"oh?"
Ying Yi's heart changed: "Could it be that the thieves have already noticed?"
Zhu Bingkun said: "My lord is wise. At noon, he found that the bandit soldiers were fifty miles away. The last general estimated that they would reach Xiangcheng County before dark, and planned to ambush his troops inside Xiangcheng. Halfway through the city, the thieves attacked from inside and outside. Unexpectedly, after noon, the speed of the thieves slowed down, and the night I just received a report that the thieves had stopped twenty miles away and hesitated."
Ying Yi laughed after hearing this: "After all, in broad daylight, the north of Xiangcheng is a flat river, and it is not expected that people will not be easily noticed when you don't collect it at night."
Zhu Bingkun nodded, slightly It's a pity: "If the thieves and soldiers don't know and are at a loss, our army will definitely win a big victory." The soldiers are not as good as the trifling thieves?"
Zhu Bingkun and the others laughed.
Ying Yi waved his hand: "Since I became an army, although I have had great victories, I have been fortunate. This battle with the thieves is the time to test the soldiers. The thieves can't come. The mountain is not mine, I will go to the mountain. There is no need to rush, I have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow I will go to the camp to meet this bandit soldier for a while, and eat it."
Since taking power, Ying Yi has won many times. , The soldiers and horses folded in his hands, there are about 80,000 thieves contract officers and soldiers. But the decisive factor was not the army, but Ying Yi himself.
But in the end, it is not just one person who can conquer the world. The quality of the army needs to be tested by practice. This time, when troops came to the south, Ying Yi decided that he would not do anything if he could, and hand over the war to the army.
It just happened that the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, try your hand first, get some blood, and sharpen the blade.
"Tomorrow will come out of the nest, there will be no worries left and right, and I will not be afraid of losing the first mountain." Ying Yi said: "You quickly call someone to inform Zheng Wu."
...
Li Yan was stationed twenty miles away from the Northern Part of City, because he found some clues.
Even though Ying Yi's Yebuhui hides his tracks, just as Ying Yi said, broad daylight is like a flat river, how can people not notice it?
Li Yan's 8,000 soldiers and horses are old, weak and sick, but he has a standard battalion, only a hundred people, but he is elite, different from the old and weak.
Li Yan was born in a rich family. When they cast the thief, they brought their trusted servants, and it was these hundred people. Although he is not heavily used by thieves, unlike Hao Yaoqi, Liu Zongmin, Li Guo and the others who have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses casually under their command, usually if there is a war, they are all temporarily dispatched, but these hundreds of people are he relies heavily on. The usual training has been added, and the bandit army is no worse than the old camp.
It was Li Yan's servant who noticed that Ying was missing the next night.
"The officers and soldiers came very fast."
Li Yan saw that Clue did not dare to advance rashly, and stationed the soldiers and horses on a hill. He and Hongniangzi stood on the top of the hill, condescending, and sighed: "I hurry up and slow down, didn't expect to be one step ahead of the officers and soldiers."
"Are you sure you are officers and soldiers?" Hongniangzi Said: "Maybe it's a refugee."
Li Yan shook his head and laughed: "It's clear that the officers and soldiers don't collect at night, where is the refugee? If it wasn't for my sharp eyes, I must have been deceived. I'm so cautious, it's impossible to be a refugee. I want to come. At this time, the officers and soldiers have occupied Xiangcheng. Our army is old and weak, and we will suffer a loss if we advance rashly. I have sent people to turn back to Kaifeng, please help Chuangwang. I just hope that Chuangwang can dispatch his troops and horses sooner, otherwise..."
He looked worried.
Li Yan is a smart person, and he has faintly noticed something bad in his heart. Niu Jinxing told him that Ding Qirui, a member of the Ming Army, was coming from the south and asked him to garrison Xiangcheng and guard the main road to the north. But now that I think about it, it is clearly a bit unusual.
He didn't say a word - half of his hundreds of servants were sent out as a detective. In the past half-day, there have been more than 20 people who have not heard from him.
Where did it go? Mostly dead.
He and the Ming Army have had a lot of battles, but the Ming Army's no-holds-off may not have been so great.
You can see the whole leopard at a glance. Are these soldiers and horses from the south really Ding Qirui's Huguang soldiers?
He didn't even expect too much to ask Chuangwang to help him -- here is the news, the first person to know is not Chuangwang, but Niu Jinxing. Will Niu Jinxing immediately report the Chuang Wang and send more troops to him?
His heart was heavy.
"Maybe I'm really wrong..." He secretly sighed in his heart: "A thief is a thief after all, and the thief is too deep to change. That's all, since I've taken this road, I won't do it again. There is no turning back. I took this life as a wake-up call, and I only hope that Niu Jinxing can focus on the overall situation..."
He thought that if he could delay here for a few days, or even die, let Niu Jinxing Jin Xing knew how powerful the enemy was, and if he dealt with it earlier, it would not be a waste for him to vote for the king.
