After the sky turned pale, Zhou Huaian was able to set foot in the ruins of the camp on the opposite bank, watching the prisoners who were covered in smoke and blood, holding their heads and kneeling on the ground. All this came too suddenly, and it made people feel a little absurd. The enemy who had to deal with it with all his strength yesterday has been defeated after this night
Compared with the hard fight in the daytime yesterday and the hearty attack and defense at night, the win in the latter half of the night was simply inexplicable. As the leader of the vanguard, Huo Cun, who subsequently reported to Zhou Huai'an, also seemed to have a complicated expression, because this victory was completely the result of a chain reaction of a mistake.
The process when they occupied the bridgehead position last night was calm. And when the local camp was not disturbed, when the more than 20 guards and guards left behind at the bridge were cleared away, they were even treated as friendly forces and had no time to react. Then, when a defense formation was built on the spot and a signal was sent to stand by for the follow-up, it was an accident.
Because a team of troops from the enemy's battalion for defense also drove over with wind lanterns and flags; then these did not expire so easily, because the opponent shouted in the local dialect of Annan dialect; so it was a short outflank encounter , Broke out again near the bridge; but this time the results were not so complete.
Unexpectedly, there were still a few enemy soldiers who had fallen at the end of the line, and did not know why they pulled apart for a certain distance. They became slippery fish under the outflank attack and fleeing back toward the big camp without their lives. At this time, Huo Cun ordered to give up chasing in place and wait for help, but another accident occurred; a team of sword players who were arranged to swim around and intercept other patrol posts, under the leadership of the team, somehow happened. Chased in a rush.
Then they chased them all the way, and after they chased and killed the few slippery fish one by one, they found that they had chased after the enemy’s camp door, even the camp door had been opened. They came and waited; then, under the leadership of this somewhat dizzy team, they simply rushed in without making a sound if they were wrong, and cut off when they saw people, but they planned to get a few heads back to make up for it.
As a result, he discovered that the opponent was negligent and unprepared, completely different from those enemies encountered during the day; the opponent did not expect that his side could be attacked by night, and the defenders near the camp gate were unexpectedly different. I was caught off guard and ran away. Then these soldiers walked in on both sides of the door, seized the lighting torches and fire cages, took the opportunity to set fire to a large area of the camp, and the entire enemy camp was agitated and agitated.
At this time, the other three teams of jump soldiers who personally led came over to meet Huo Cun and rushed there. Seeing this scene and situation, they simply did nothing, and then attacked and killed along the wide open camp gate. After going back and forth, a certain superimposed amplification effect was produced. Most of the remaining enemy troops actually blew up their nests and screamed, and began to rush and trample each other like headless flies. stand up.
When Huo Cun and the others were about to run out of their rushing momentum and fell into the enemy's siege again; it happened that the first batch of crossbowmen who crossed the river under the leadership of Ge Cunzhou also all arrived on the other side, and they were concerned about the safety of their righteous brothers. Following the fire and movement, they chased over; just then, amid the erosion of the enemy camp, a lot of fuel was added to the fire.
After the third batch of soldiers who crossed the river led by Chai Ping himself were also put into battle; it became the last straw that overwhelmed the camels, and the collapse of the enemy camp was irreversible; of course. In addition to the fluke factor under the accidental collision, the interrogation of the prisoners after dawn revealed that this unexpected victory actually had other reasons.
Because in this one who came to meet the so-called "tens of thousands" of troops, there are actually seven to eight thousand officers, more than two thousand of the most elite have been sent across the river to participate in the night attack; therefore, among the remaining camps Half of them are old and weak and new pawns, and half of them are the Turkmen Army who subdued and annexed under Jiaozhou City;
Their camp is located near the gate of the camp that was raided, so after being attacked, they are like frightened birds and easily get messed up, and in the midst of the fire and killing, they rushed towards the camp in panic, and It also disrupted the order and response of other camps, leading them to be unable to gather together effectively at a time, or aggregate into a quantitative scale.
However, the price the Rebels paid for this was not small. The knife player of the team who entered the camp was almost killed and injured, and the three-team jump ** brought by Huo Cun only brought back one team a little more; others They were all damaged by accident in the chaos. However, the losses of Ge Congzhou and Chai Pingbu, who were later accepted, were smaller, because they had enough manpower to form a battle formation, and they smashed into the chaotic enemy.
But in any case, this record of disrupting the camp with hundreds of people and attacking an enemy more than ten times more than one's own is also considered a remarkable and worthy of a lot of credit.
But before that, Zhou Huaian had to deal with the end of his hand. For example, as the culprit who caused the series of changes tonight, the team was brought in front of him. He looked quite young and only in his early twenties, he was born black and thin, with slender hands and feet, but the blood stains and a few bandaged wounds made him show a bitter air.
"What's your name.."
Zhou Huaian asked blankly
"Be humble, Wang Ziming, Zengmeng, Commander Ge gave the character Yanzhang..."
Until this moment, he was somewhat cramped and awed.
"The leader can be called Humble Yanzhang..."
Zhou Huaian suddenly remembered. This is not the one who was born in the same juvenile rebel army as Chai Ping, because he likes to write the Water Margin Juyi story in the workshop, and he is familiar with the rebel veteran, the right-wing Taofen army. The master Ge Cunshu dug over him, and he was considered to be one of the batch of talents that had been introduced back then.
"Are you from Yunzhou Shouzhang..."
Hearing the last two words, Zhou Huaian couldn't help but move. This wouldn't be the person he knew: He had seen this person with the same name on the local celebrity on the Yunzhou tourism website.
"Humble is just..."
He still answered without raising his head.
Then Zhou Huaian asked a few more questions, and he became more certain that he was in the same ten, but he was a figure in the late Tang and Five Dynasties who actually worshipped the Water Margin Songjiang and his ilk more than 300 years later. This is too much time and space. It's misplaced.
Yes, it should be him. The last famous general and Zhu Shi of Hou Liang, known as the Iron Spear King, is one of the top fighting generals of the five generations. He once defeated dozens of generals who had defeated the Hou Tang in one fell swoop. He dared to be nicknamed "Li Yazi". Li Cunxu, a great man, was a generation of famous general, Wang Yanzhang, who was born as a juvenile rebel, and appeared under his own hands.
In Zizhi Tongjian, he said, "Yanzhang is brave and powerful, able to walk a hundred steps with thorny feet. With an iron spear, he can ride and rush like flying, and no one else can do it. The king of the military. Iron gun". There are even more deeds of riding across the river alone to scare away tens of thousands of troops.
That famous saying:'Leopards keep their skins, and people keep their names. 'Is from his mantra ("The New History of the Five Dynasties·Wang Yanzhang Biography": "Yanzhang Wuren, I don't know the book, and often slang saying that people say:'Leopards die, and people die."), even if he is the last He was still fighting in front of the enemy at the age of more than sixties, and then Liang died and was captured by Hou Tang, but he still refused to give in and die. It can be regarded as the epitome of a character of the era who was born vigorously and died tragically and resolutely.
Huangchao's rebel army was indeed the soil and hotbed of the next five generations of generals. This could not help but pop up. Even if the trajectory of his life may have been unintentionally deviated by himself, and he can still survive the chaos, he still has the luck of some future generations.
Thinking of this, Zhou Huai’an couldn’t help but feel a little bit happy and fortunate. Could it be that because of the initial scale of strength and the potential for attractive investment, he also has time to operate; after he was under his command, the new version of the Nanhan regime he expected It has consolidated a bit of potential foundation.
Although in accordance with the 3.0 version of his pre-determined ambitions and expected goals, he does not expect to become the true version of the Nanhan in history in the future. It is a paradise for the castration party that requires castration to be an official, or it is for ministers to treat their wives and concubines to the palace banquet for fun, and even perform heavy-mouth programs such as humans and beasts. This collection of a lot of harems with various skin tones is not a problem at all.
So it is true that we still have to fight more, and let people have more opportunities to show and stand out, so that it is possible to discover and attract these future figures who may be hidden in the wild or dormant inside and outside the system.
"Where is the military law..."
Although I had earned it with joy in my heart, Zhou Huaian still cried out without changing his face after he had changed his mind in an instant.
"I will obey orders..."
"The prince of the team is going to attack the enemy and break it bravely. When it comes to Class A third-class merit, he can reward ten dans, and his promotion can take one round..."
"However, if you violate the order and attack without authorization, you will be treated as a marching law.. Thirty army sticks.
Having said that, Zhou Huai'an shouted righteously
"School Lieutenant Huo Cun was able to take over after the fact, and he was able to remedy it. The same promotion can be reduced by two rounds..."
"Also assign Wang Yanzhang's team to your subordinates to urge them to complete..."
Hearing this, Huo Cun couldn't help but glanced at Wang Yanzhang with a little surprise on his face, but he did not speak but nodded slightly.
"If you have merit, you must be rewarded, if you have a demerit, you must be punished. After the demerit and demerit are equal, the guest can postpone the punishment at his discretion, and redeem the effect before watching the formation..."
Then Zhou Huai looked at his eyes and said word by word.
"If you break here, have you ever convinced you..."
"The villain is convinced and accepts it without objection..."
He did not hesitate to kneel down on the ground for a while and shout loudly, which saved Zhou Huaian's next thoughts and efforts.
After all, as an army with only vitality and enterprising spirit, the most important thing to pay attention to in this kind of thing is to distinguish rewards and punishments, rather than vague or muddy, leaving people with too much imagination, suspicion, and speculation. There is room for people to make unreasonable guesses in private, and things will happen.
When his behavior is good, it is too much subjective initiative, and when it is bad, it is a self-assertive and undisciplined behavior; even if the result is good, it is not worthy of encouragement and promotion.
As the leader of an emerging force, he does not place his hopes too much on the probability that the enemy can make mistakes every time; nor does he hope that his subordinates will frequently have such uncertain factors that are prone to self-assertion and hidden dangers that are prone to accidents.
Even if he is a celebrity in the future, he has the potential to be cultivated and employed by himself, but there is no need to tolerate and indulge him. Although this person is not well-known in the history books, he also showed some characteristics of calmness, determination and ability in the battle of this night, and he also did a good job of facing the enemy.
It is more appropriate for him to supervise and restrict Wang Yanzhang, who has a tendency to walk alone, with the potential of ignoring the previous suspicions after being disobeyed.
After spending more time and effort to deal with this temporary episode, Zhou Huaian found that after the battle, he had also obtained a few more special prisoners. (End of this chapter)
