Chapter 190 How can the mountains and rivers of Wanli be stable? 8
Before leaving, Xiao Hao changed the "Tian" flag to the "Mie" flag.
Each of the battle flags of Tiance Mansion has a different meaning.
The "Mie" flag represents that they will carry a special mission and fight the enemy to the death with the determination to die. Eliminate all evil and leave no one behind. Wherever the "Mie" flag
goes, gods and ghosts will be destroyed and jade and stone will be destroyed.
The rest of the people in the King's army know the significance of their dispatch. There are many soldiers and civilians who come to see them off. Some are ashamed, some are reluctant, some cry, and some wish they could fight with them.
From this moment on, these people will completely draw a line between them and them.
Before Xiao Hao and his men set out, they had already clearly realized the gap between a mob and real soldiers.
To perform one's duty with integrity and sacrifice oneself for the people is loyalty; to be unswerving in doing good and die bravely is righteousness.
Their loyalty and righteousness were not for the king, for the leader, or for their own false reputation, but for the people who were unarmed and struggling to survive in the chaotic world.
Li Yan used to wonder why Xiao Hao's team always seemed to be incompatible with the militia and the gangsters. At first, he thought it was because he was strict in military management and Xiao Hao was a far-sighted person, so he often restricted his men, which led to their current appearance.
But this explanation always felt a little inappropriate.
Seeing them go out to fight today, Li Yan finally understood the difference.
They have a kind of righteous spirit that is as great as the heaven and earth, which is completely different from the false benevolence that the teacher of the king pretends to show to the people.
Li Yan sighed that he had all the strategies and tactics to save the country, but he was willing to become a bandit, and he was plotting to conquer the world with a group of short-sighted hypocritical people, and he also wanted to provide a safe place for the people, but he had unknowingly fallen into the lower position. Although
the king of the king was admired by thousands of people, he could not change the ideas in his bones.
Scholars and scheming scholars were just pawns in the hands of others.
He thought for a long time, stopped Xiao Hao's team, and asked, "Brother Xiao, can I go with you on this trip?"
Xiao Hao had just counted the number of people, and Hong Niangzi followed behind him as the deputy commander.
Since joining the Tiance Army, they have changed into the Tiance school uniforms provided by Xiao Hao, and Hong Niangzi, who is wearing the Southern Emperor's uniform, is the most dashing. However, when Xiao Hao provided them with school uniforms, he also made some changes. In this conservative era, the thighs of military women should still be well wrapped in the hem.
He saw the struggle in Li Yan's eyes and smiled and replied, "I agree, but King Yan disagrees."
Li Yan knew that what he said was true. King Yan valued him very much. In this battle where the outcome was basically determined, King Yan would not allow him, a conspirator, to die.
Xiao Hao opened the list of names of the Tiance soldiers and read out the names one by one. The three battalions of Tianqiang, Tiandun and Tiangong had all arrived, and Hongniangzi's Tiansha Battalion was ordered to stay in the main camp.
He said to Li Yan sternly: "Brother Li is a sincere gentleman. I appreciate your kindness, but you are a family man, so please cherish your life. If you are willing, you might as well fill us with good wine and wait for us to return and get drunk with you."
All the Tiance soldiers who have families or are the only sons in the family are not among those who will go out on the battlefield today. Xiao Hao knows his limits, and his soldiers also feel the consideration of their general in the details.
Li Yan was silent for a long time, and finally raised his head and said to Xiao Hao: "I have no chance to fight with you, I am willing to turn into a long wind around the battle flag!"
Xiao Hao bowed to him and shouted: "All of you listen to my orders!"
The Tiance soldiers were waiting in a serious manner, and their expressions were solemn. No one dared to imagine that they were once militiamen who were as afraid of the strong and the dead as themselves.
Xiao Hao took up his gun and mounted his horse, his eyes swept across each of their faces, as if he was going to a big banquet, showing a fearless smile that made people's hearts jump out and swear to follow him to death: "All troops, mount your horses, listen to my command-"
"Charge-"
Since ancient times, every inch of the country built by military exploits has been cast with blood. Every
inch of the mountains and rivers is filled with the bones of comrades, and there is no place in the world that is not Beimang.
Li Yan stood behind the team that was leaving in a cloud of dust, holding Hong Niangzi's hand tightly. "I remember you said that the Tiance started from Beimang Mountain."
Hong Niangzi shook her head and corrected, "It was Fenglang Mountain."
Li Yan nodded and made a decision that he finally dared to say out loud: "If they come back... No, when they come back, I will follow you."
*
Today is the seventh day of continuous heavy rain. There is no place on this plain that can shelter from the wind and rain. In addition, due to years of famine, most of the grass and trees have been eaten up by hungry people. The road is full of muddy yellow soil and is very difficult to walk on.
But the benefits of heavy rain are also obvious. Sun Chuanting's food carts were stuck in the road and difficult to move. The military supplies were moving very slowly. Xiao Hao easily found their position and cut off their food supply.
Cutting off the food supply is easy, but facing the counterattack of the 100,000 troops in front, it is very difficult to deal with.
Sun Chuanting's main force was in Jiacheng. Xiao Hao was in their rear at this time, less than 50 miles away from the main force. Sun Chuanting's food supply was cut off, and his officers and soldiers were caught in the rain and had no food to eat. Naturally, they complained and vowed to go back and eat the people who cut off their food supply.
But Xiao Hao only had 2,000 people, and the opponent had 100,000 people, and they were elite divisions. Xiao Hao could not fight them head-on. At this critical moment, Xiao Hao actually found a way out.
In the battlefield plug-in monitoring, Xiao Hao led his men to wherever there was a red name on the small map. No matter how many times Sun Chuanting's men patrolled this plain, they could not find any trace of them.
Even though Xiao Hao was right under their noses and was no more than five miles away from them at the closest time, they did not notice it at all.
After three consecutive days without any news from Tian Ce, Li Yan was uneasy, so he asked Li Zicheng to send troops to besiege the city, delaying Sun Chuanting's main force, forcing them to retreat.
Li Zicheng always obeyed his strategies. Sun Chuanting was faced with a huge militia in front of him, and the team shooting arrows from behind could not find anyone, so he simply left Chen Yongfu to guard Jiacheng and went to clear the grain road himself.
His departure from the city played into Xiao Hao's trap.
Xiao Hao led a small team to ambush from the side, and Shi Zhixuan led the other half of the soldiers to confront him. Not long after Sun Chuanting's men left the city, they were caught off guard by them and the army was directly split in two. Tian Ce's fixed team of more than ten people surrounded one person at a very fast speed. They always had no time for the other party to react, and they had already stabbed them to death and switched to the next target. It was a very practical true encirclement and attack tactic.
Xiao Hao's heart suddenly skipped a beat when he noticed that the average level of this team of officers and soldiers was 55, and that everyone had a powerful crossbow in their hands.
What was even more surprising was that this group of people were not panicked at all after their formation was broken up. Except for being startled by their ghostly appearance at first, they quickly calmed down and fought back with crossbows and arrows from both sides in an orderly manner.
Xiao Hao's men were cavalrymen, and these crossbowmen were a threat to them in an extraordinary way.
This group of people might be Sun Chuanting's secret weapon.
He immediately cut the iron cage, rushed into the enemy's camp, and forcibly pulled the hatred of a group of crossbowmen. Shi Zhixuan led the cavalrymen to kill in and out, as if they were in an empty space, and soon killed a bloody path.
Sun Chuanting was unwilling to lose his elite troops here, so he immediately commanded the army to retreat in the direction of the grain road. Xiao Hao felt relieved and told everyone not to act rashly and let them run for a while.
Many people in the Tiance Army were puzzled as to why they did not pursue them when they had the upper hand. Xiao Hao smiled mysteriously.
In the following days, the team led by Sun Chuanting out of the city fully felt the horror of the Tiance Iron Hoof.
Xiao Hao played with them like a kite. There were only two thousand people, but he followed them closely. After adjusting his condition, he rushed up and beat them up. After the beating, he ran away, and took several carts of food with him while running.
They all had four legs, while Sun Chuanting's soldiers only had two legs. Xiao Hao and his men rode away, and the group could not catch up no matter what.
When they continued to move forward, the group had rested and eaten well, and rode up to catch up with them in half the time it took them to catch up, and beat them up without any explanation.
Sun Chuanting was miserable. He had tens of thousands of men under his command, but he was chased by two thousand men and was in a panic. He was defeated in battle after battle, and suffered more than ten thousand casualties. When
the soldiers saw the big flag with the word "Extinction" and heard the word "Xiao Hao", they were so scared that their legs and feet went limp.
Xiao Hao chased them for more than seventy miles in one breath. This group of officers and soldiers who were beaten to a pulp gave him a very familiar nickname - "Xiao Ritian, the Wind-swept Cloud".
As the name suggests, wherever he went, no one was left alive.
Sun Chuanting could not understand why the Tianxiong Army, which was used to sweep away bandits, became so poor and miserable in his hands.
The first-ranked army of the Ming Dynasty was Yuan Chonghuan's Guanning Iron Cavalry, which was invincible all over the world; the second-ranked one was Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army.
Although Lu Xiangsheng died in Julu, many of the former members of the Tianxiong Army remained. Their remaining power still frightens all the leaders of the rebellion. The old bandit king Gao Yingxiang was defeated by the Tianxiong Army.
But where did the Tiance Army come from? !
Sun Chuanting couldn't figure out the result, but he knew that he couldn't continue to be chased and beaten like this.
Even rabbits have times when they are forced to bite people. After being chased day and night for several days, the officers and soldiers who were extremely nervous and hungry finally turned around and decided to die with this group of Dongdu wolves.
... Haha.
Then this group of wolves disappeared from under their noses again.
Sun Chuanting almost died of anger on the spot, but at this moment, he had no chance to fight back.
After he evacuated Jiacheng, Li Zicheng launched a general attack under the strong encouragement of Li Yan. Most of Chen Yongfu's soldiers were dissatisfied with the fact that Sun Chuanting withdrew first, thinking that they were hungry here, why did they leave first? When Li Zicheng's army arrived, the government troops collapsed across the board and fled in large numbers.
The situation of the militia took a big turn, and they chased the government troops frantically, killing more than 400 people in one day and one night, vowing to avenge the Tiance Army that opened a way for them.
When they caught up with Sun Chuanting's team, the flags with the word "Extinction" raised behind Sun Chuanting made people dazed for a while.
Under the fading sun, the battle flags of Tiance fluttered in the wind, and the sound of reining in horses was heard. The east wind lifted their red ropes, and with those silver spears, they cut through fate and life and death, cut through bones and wind and thunder, and turned all the enemies in front of them into ashes.
Xiao Hao rode his horse in the front, with murderous anger in his eyes, and reported to Li Yan who came to help: "Tiance had 2,133 soldiers on the expedition, and now there are 1,845 people. We have fulfilled our mission and come to get drunk with you as promised!"
Li Yan smiled from the bottom of his heart.
He knew that after today, the name of Tiance would surely amaze the whole country.
