Chapter 179

Seeing Zhang Xianzhong leading his troops to pursue him, the little Qin King Bai Gui pondered at Luo Rucai, "Brother, I feel something is wrong."

The total of 100,000 Hei Yunxiang nodded. When they first met the official army, they didn't think there would be any problems with the official army. But after the officers and soldiers were defeated, more than a thousand cavalry came out, and then they were defeated again, Bai Gui and Hei Yunxiang felt something was wrong. This was just a feeling of years of combat training.

After hearing this, Cao Cao and Luo Rucai also began to ponder, "You think the government army is a fraud."

"I didn't think it was, but now I do feel it." Bai Gui nodded and said. Luo Rucai had always been the leader of various civilian army. He had more than 100,000 soldiers and horses under his command for a long time. Later, when he was surrendered in Junzhou, he also had nine battalions of soldiers. And this little Qin King Bai Gui, who had 100,000 Hei Yunxiang, was the closest to Cao Cao and Luo Rucai. Some people in the official army even called these two people the two black and white guardians of Luo Rucai.

Although there is no evidence, they all feel something is wrong.

"Maybe the thief is deliberately deceiving defeat and seducing the enemy."

"The ambush of the thieves have come out and are defeated again. It is impossible for the second ambush." ​​The person who spoke was Wang Guoning, the King of Xingshi, who was one of the nine camps of Luo Rucai, who was also one of the fifth camps who surrendered to Junzhou with Huideng. He vowed not to rebel with Huideng and Wang Guangen. In the end, except for King Guangen of Huaguansuo, the other four Huideng, Wang Guoning, Yang Youxian and Chang De'an still rebelled.

"Under normal circumstances, there should be no more ambushings, but the soldiers are never tired of cheating. Who can guarantee that the officers and soldiers will have no ambushings?" said Zhang Xiu, Yizhangqing, who is also one of the leaders of the Ninth Battalion.

At this time, Hei Yunxiang said, "I suddenly remembered that we sent two groups of people to attack Wushan, but we never returned."

Cao Cao and Luo Rucai also felt that the two troops were defeated before were actually a problem. The previous report said that the first troops of the Sweeping King and the First Army were defeated, and the second troops of the Hunshi King and the other were surrounded. If this is true, then the ten thousand soldiers of the official army should be surrounded by Hunshi King and the others. Why are there six or seven thousand people coming here to intercept them now

The more Cao Cao thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. "Be careful that we can sail a ten thousand-year-old ship, we need to be more careful."

Although everything is just suspicion. But in the troubled times, sometimes he escaped with this alert. However, Cao Cao did not tell Zhang Xianzhong his suspicion. Before, Zhang Xianzhong suspected that there were ambushing soldiers, and he said he would take advantage of the situation to pursue them. Then there was really a cavalry ambush. Now Zhang Xianzhong defeated the cavalry to pursue them, and he said he should not pursue them. This is not inconsistency.

Maybe there is a fraud, maybe there is no, no one can tell.

"Let Huang Hu take the lead in playing the forward, let's pull back a little." Cao Cao immediately made a decision, a little selfish, but he was deeply convinced by the leaders of the Ninth Camp.

Since the rebellion, the Ninth Camp has also suffered a lot of losses. First, Wang Guangen betrayed everyone, and although the other four camps finally came back, after entering Sichuan, the tenth anti-rebellion king Yang Youxian first lost news, and then the substitute Wang Guangen's humiliation king Wu Ziqiang also lost news.

In addition, the fact that the Tianxing Huideng, who was a little alienated from everyone, left Daning, the ninth camps of their ninth camps is only sixth camps left. Compared with the Zhang Xianzhong camps of Gucheng, whose strength has rapidly expanded since Gucheng rebelled, Cao Cao and the others have gradually become bigger.

"If the officers and soldiers have ambush, Huang Hu and the others will be the first to be hit. But after all, we have many soldiers and many forces, so we will definitely win at that time." The little Qin King Bai Gui's meaning is very obvious. If there are ambush, Zhang Xianzhong and the others will at most suffer some casualties, but there will not be any major problems. If not, then there will naturally be nothing wrong.

On the battlefield over there, Zhang Xianzhong and his generals had completely given up their vigilance and guard against each other. The ambush of the official army had already come out, so what else should I be afraid of next?

Faced with their fierce attack, the officers and soldiers retreated step by step. This aroused the fierce aura of the bandits and the pursuit became even more fierce.

Lu Yuansun and Lu Yuan asked the two brothers to lead their personal soldiers to flee east desperately. Seeing the bandits getting closer and closer, Lu Yuansun began to ask the flag bearer around him to raise a green flag.

After the first green flag was raised, many green flags were raised among the defeated officers and soldiers.

Green flags were raised among the fleeing officials.

Zhang Xianzhong's troops also discovered it, but in their doubts, the official army did not suddenly turn around and shoot back, or another ambush ran out from both sides.

After the green flag was raised, the officers and soldiers actually began to throw away their armor.

Iron helmets, weapons, flags, and they are discarded.

The bandits roared wildly and began to continue chasing and pick up armor and weapons. Although the official army was useless in fighting, the armor was still quite excellent.

Zhang Xianzhong laughed louder and louder when he saw the officers and soldiers throwing their armor, "I want to escape by throwing the armor."

He led the cavalry and kept chasing the troops who stopped to fight for armor.

Seeing that he was about to catch up again, the official army began to throw things again.

This time, they were not throwing armor. They had no armor to throw away, so they started throwing things on their bodies, broken silver, copper coins, and even some people threw their boots directly, as if they thought the boots were affecting their lives on the muddy road.

The white silver and gold copper coins were scattered on the muddy road, which was really dazzling.

Although Zhang Xianzhong and his elite cavalry were still chasing without any pause, the infantry following the pursuit could not stand the temptation and began to stop and pick up money. Many people even began to fight with each other and started fighting.

The cavalry and the infantry behind began to get disconnected.

Cao Cao, who deliberately landed many distances in the distance, held up a thousand-mile mirror and saw this. His heart was shocked and he sucked in his mouth. He had a very bad feeling in his heart.

"First throw the armor, then the weapons, and then the silver and copper coins"

"This movement is so neat, it seems to be thrown on purpose, or throwing on purpose. It's not good. This must be a fraud, stop moving forward." Luo Rucai shouted.

"Brother, there is a valley ahead, and Huang Hu is chasing him with people," shouted Bai Gui, the little Qin King.

Only then did Cao Cao and others realize that they had already passed the empty area before and entered a mountainous area. Now, Zhang Xianzhong and the others have chased the government troops and rushed into the valley.

The worst thing is that Zhang Xianzhong only brought more than 3,000 cavalry beside him, but the brigade of infantry behind was still looking for gold and silver in the mud, and had already been separated from the cavalry in front.

When you see that valley, people with a little combat experience will immediately think of two words, ambush.

Two mountains and one ditch, the narrow valley is really an ideal place to lie in ambush.

As expected, as soon as Zhang Xianzhong's cavalry rushed into the valley, the team behind had not yet followed, and suddenly rushed out of a chariot camp from the forests on both sides. They appeared quickly, and before the infantry behind caught up, they had quickly surrounded the valley entrance and established a chariot array.

"There are really ambushing troops."

Luo Rucai and others looked at each other, and no one expected that the expectation would become a fact.

"I ambushed in the yellow tiger and surrounded," said the entire 100,000 Hei Yunxiang in shock.

On the hillside, Liu Jun watched thousands of thieves rush into the valley and shouted excitedly, "The thieves thieves have taken the hook."

Although only a few thousand cavalry surrounded, Liu Jun and others were very excited. The cavalry is the symbol of elite combat soldiers among the bandits and the backbone of each bandit. Although only a few thousand cavalry surrounded, tens of thousands of bandits and elite cavalry also have thousands of cavalry. If this cavalry can be wiped out, the bandits will be really hurt.

"Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Xianzhong and Zhang Xianzhong followed in." Lu Yuansun was soaked. He rode his horse and ran to the slope where Liu Jun and his command were located, shouting loudly. "Zhang Xianzhong is in the valley."

Liu Jun was shocked, and Zhang Xianzhong lured him in

He found a big fish and a big shark. Even though he was excited, Liu Jun also knew that he had made a profit. However, Zhang Xianzhong was entered by the net, but there were still tens of thousands of people outside, and the bandits were afraid that they would go crazy.

Liu Jun quickly made the latest deployment and issued an order.

"General Lu, big and small, led your troops forward, but gathered again at the back."

"General Hu led your men to Beigukou immediately to reinforce the left side of the logistics battalion to defend, and must block the valley entrance and prevent the bandits from breaking through."

"Fighting the barracks, teaching battalions, and use the fastest time to annihilate the bandits entering the valley. Once Zhang Xianzhong is discovered, take it down as soon as possible. If you cannot capture alive, kill directly and kill directly, you must never let the bandits escape."

Liu Jun particularly emphasized the handling of Zhang Xianzhong. At present, although there are three major bandits in total. Hui Zuo Fifth Camp, Cao Cao Ninth Camp, and Zhang Xianzhong Eighth Camp, among the three major bandits, Hui Zuo Fifth Camp, which was the strongest among the large bandit suppression in the 11th year of Chongzhen. However, in that big bandit suppression, Li Zicheng, who was originally extremely powerful, was defeated and annihilated.

However, the bandits that the emperor hates most today is Zhang Xianzhong. First of all, Zhang Xianzhong is very old among bandits. Whether in the early years of Wang Ziyong or Gao Yingxiang and other bandit alliances, Zhang Xianzhong was the main bandit leader. Moreover, Zhang Xianzhong later invaded Fengyang and dug the emperor's ancestral tomb.

Moreover, the various bandits in the Central Plains were either destroyed or surrendered last year, and the feelings for bandits in the Central Plains were already very good. However, Zhang Xianzhong surrendered and rebelled again, and caused many bandits who had already surrendered. The emperor had already issued a strict imperial edict, and other bandits might be able to accept surrender and besiege them, but only Zhang Xianzhong would never accept his surrender. He must be captured alive or killed in battle. He must be killed.

Liu Jun had killed four anti-kings before, but the sum was not as good as Zhang Xianzhong.

Capturing and killing Zhang Xianzhong will surely be the first achievement.

However, Liu Jun didn't care whether Zhang Xianzhong was dead or alive. As long as he could kill him, he would not be afraid of his hands and feet just to capture him alive.

"Fire the fire, beat me hard"

In front of the trench on the hillside, Mei Qing was wearing a raincoat, standing in front of the tiger squatting cannon, commanding three fire soldiers to load ammunition.

She raised her head and found it raining heavily, but the Nine-headed bird temporarily built a canopy on the trench and made it with trees, thatched leaves, etc. Although it was a bit leaking, it could already block a lot of wind and rain.

At least, cannons can still be fired and muskets can still be fired.

The firefighter opened the shell box wrapped in a rainproof cloth outside, took out a pack of gunpowder from it and stuffed it into the barrel, then put two hundred small leads in it, and then stuffed it into a large lead to press it tight.

"Report, reloading"

Mei Qing had just observed each step of loading, knowing that there was no error in loading, so she nodded, then looked down the slope, and the thief cavalry who rushed into the valley knew that they were ambushed and were in chaos. Some were continuing to rush forward, some wanted to retreat, and some wanted to rush up the hillsides on both sides.

Under the slope of Mei Qing and his team, a large group of thieves gathered together. Mei Qing sneered coldly and used the torch in her hand to make a close-to-fire rope.

Although it was raining in the sky, the cannon was not affected much under this simple puff.

Mei Qing praised Liu Jun in his heart, and he could have thought of such a way. He used to dig a trench on the hillside, but now he put a roof on the trench. He is really a talent.

"Bang"

Almost at the same time, in front of the trenches on both slopes, artillery large and small sounded, and countless shells violently attacked the cavalry in the valley.

While the cannon was fired, the musketeers in the trench also aimed at the target to fire.

Although the trenches under their feet were covered with rain and mud, it was very uncomfortable, but there was a roof on their heads and rain ponchos on their bodies. The fuses wrapped around their wrists were burning normally. The paper bullets contained in the cowhide bullet bag were not wet. Take out a paper bullet, skillfully bit open a corner, pour a little into the gunpowder pool, then close the fire door cover, pour gunpowder into the gun tube, then stuff the lead bullet and the paper shell into the gun tube, and pick up the strip to sturdy it.

The gunman who had hit more than 200 live ammunition rounds, and when he was stabbed, he had just a few strokes and stabbed the paper bullet just right, neither tight nor loose. This tightness was completely achieved by those hundreds of live ammunition rounds. If he did not have enough live ammunition experience, he would be very sure of this feeling. A little tight or loose will have a great impact on the accuracy of the shooting bullets.

The sound of cannons continued and the sound of gunfire was continuous.

The thief cavalry chasing into the valley were almost stunned.

Many bandits couldn't help but look up at the sky. A large raindrop fell and hit the face, which was very cold.

It was raining, it was raining heavily.

"Why can the firearms of the government army still work?"

The continuous iron sand of lead bullets poured down. The thief riding on the horse, no matter how fierce it was, could not dodge and escape from the dense lead.

The horse thieves were shot down one after another, and war horses were neighed and shot to the ground from time to time.

Zhang Xianzhong was also stunned. Why can the government army's firearms be launched on rainy days

Then he finally saw many sheds on the hillside, where the officials set off guns and fired cannons.

"Your mother"

Zhang Xianzhong almost spit out his old blood. How could the Dog Officer Army be so cunning that he actually built a cannon for the cannons and guns?

"Retreat, withdraw" Zhang Xianzhong only took a look and knew that directly attacking the official army's artillery array would not work. Although the artillery array was close, there were many resisting horses and chest walls in front, and they could not capture them in a hurry.

After hearing this order, the thief began to shout and turned around and rushed back, wanting to rush out on the way he came.

The thief's shouting did not affect the nine-headed bird soldiers on the hillsides on both sides. They just kept firing and shooting again. One round, two rounds, three rounds, four rounds, five rounds, and five rounds are not completed. ~Search the basket color and you can read the following chapters in the full text.
