Chongzhen Undergraduates

Liu Tichun looked disappointedly at the departing Daxi Army, and his voice became smaller and smaller.For a long time, this kind of surrender of officers and soldiers was like a formalism. The peasant army never took it seriously, and even if it was true this time, no one believed it.

"Notify the Diaoyu City Combat Command to build a pontoon downstream, and the Ninth Army is about to withdraw." Liu Tichun shook his head helplessly. He knew the peasant army's combat methods very well.

The cannons at the gap were unable to break through, and they would definitely use the surrounding people to consume the Ninth Army's artillery fire.This was discussed before the war. Once Zhang Kewang drove the people to attack the city, the Ninth Army would immediately withdraw from Hechuan City.

Zhu Youjian didn't want to enter Sichuan by himself, and there were still ten rooms and nine empty things in Sichuan.If everyone drove the people to attack the enemy, and because of the massacres after the siege, no matter how many people there were, it would not be enough to kill them.

It was not a day for Zhang Kewang to collect the people, nor was it a day for the Ninth Army to withdraw from Hechuan City.Among them, the two sides actually had a short ceasefire, forming a delicate peace.

It’s just that Zhang Kewang has to come to the river to look at Diaoyu City with a telescope every day, and Zhu Youjian is also very cooperative, showing up every day to let Zhang Kewang know that he is still in Diaoyu City.

At the beginning of February, the Great Western Army completely occupied Hechuan, and all the people in Hechuan withdrew to Chongqing, and the Ninth Army withdrew to Diaoyucheng.The two sides confront each other across the river.

"General Liu, how do you feel about this battle?"

Zhu Youjian set up a table for Liu Tichun to clean up the dust.Eighth, generals above the division level of the Ninth Army, several other armies and generals directly under the army all participated.

This is actually a post-war summary meeting, which was deliberately arranged by Zhu Youjian.The purpose is to let these people get to know their opponents again.

"Your Majesty, I feel that Zhang Xianzhong's Haier Army is the strongest army in the universe. The Ninth Army resisted the enemy with an advantage, and actually suffered more than 300 casualties.

The battlefield was cleaned up after the war, and after the inventory, a total of more than 200 corpses of the child army were found.Leaving aside those who were wounded and escaped, I thought that in the siege that night, the Haier Army almost tied with our Ninth Army. "

After Liu Tichun finished speaking, feeling a little sad, he raised his neck and poured a glass of wine into his mouth.

Liu Tichun's words made most of the people present dull.It's not that Liu Tichun spoiled his prestige by taking advantage of others' aspirations. Most of the generals sitting here have dealt with the Daxi Army and know that what Liu Tichun said is the truth.

"However, the advantage of our army is its strong firearms. The quality of the new firearms is far better than before, and it can prevent the enemy from approaching from a hundred paces away.

The coordination tactics of the three-person team is also stronger than the previous single-handed combat. If our soldiers can strengthen their fighting training, they will not be afraid of child soldiers. "

Liu Tichun went on to say that everyone nodded in praise of his words, and whispered for a while.Obviously everyone knows their strengths and weaknesses.

"Okay! Knowing the strengths and weaknesses of our army shows that you are all qualified generals. The law of war says: Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger.

Everyone thinks, how should we strengthen combat training?"

Zhu Youjian didn't know much about Daming's martial arts, so naturally he couldn't draw conclusions casually.He had to listen to the insights of these veterans.

"Your Majesty, back then Qi Shaobao's Qi Family Army recruited soldiers mainly from two sources: one was the miner Liang Jiazi from Zhejiang; the other was wolf soldiers from Guangxi.

The minister heard that the Guangxi wolf soldiers were extremely fierce in fighting. They practiced a set of boxing techniques, which was different from the boxing techniques of the Central Plains.It's called "Ang Fist", this punch focuses on offense, the moves are fierce, and the moves are deadly..." Zuo Maodi introduced Guangxi's wolf soldiers eloquently.

Zhu Youjian's thoughts flew to later generations. Angquan in Guangxi is also called "Ancient Zhuangquan". It is the predecessor of Muay Thai and is indeed very fierce.And Guangxi soldiers are indeed famous as wolf soldiers.

In particular, the soldiers in the [-] mountains of Guangxi in the Baise area were second only to the Sichuan Army in the War of Resistance.

"I will send people to Guangxi to recruit soldiers, find the best instructors to teach my Ming soldiers, let them learn how to protect themselves and destroy the enemy.

Now I want to give you a song, and I hope this song will become the military song of the Sichuan Army, and it is best that everyone can sing it.

Commander Deng, let the staff officers of the staff department come in! "

As soon as Zhu Youjian's voice fell, the generals present all looked at each other. They didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd, and what kind of song was sung well?

"If the motherland is invaded, a hot-blooded man should strengthen himself. Drink up this bowl of hometown wine, and the strong man will never return..."

There are too many staff members in the staff department recently. When the sound of dozens of people singing in chorus entered the hall, the whole hall felt a burst of enthusiasm.

"The Soul of the Chinese Army" is Zhu Youjian's military song prepared for the Sichuan Army.

Chapter 3 Fifteen: The Unbreakable Fishing City

On the tenth day of February, the Daxi Army began to drive the people across the river.Then they mixed soldiers among the people, which is their usual practice.

However, to Zhang Kewang's surprise, the defenders of Diaoyu City only stood on the city wall and looked outside coldly. Occasionally, a firecracker would sound, and it was someone who confirmed that the opponent was a soldier of the Western Army.

The expected cannon did not sound at all, until a large number of people approached the city wall, the Sichuan army still did not fight back.

"Come up and attack the city." Zhang Kewang was standing on the opposite bank, his heart had lost all emotion, the people in front of him were just a group of flesh bodies, what Zhang Kewang wanted was his fame and fortune.

The main force of the Daxi Army began to cross the river under the order of Zhang Kewang.It is foreseeable that as long as the main force is mixed among the people, the Ming army must start to fight back, otherwise the city wall will be crowded with people.

The Sichuan army did start to counterattack, but the main force of the counterattack was the navy's warships. Dozens of warships rushed over from the upper reaches of the hiding place, aimed at the raft in Jiangxin, and the cannons on the ship's deck roared towards the shore.

"Quickly, open the city gate." Hao Yaoqi's Eighth Army ordered to open the three city gates facing the river beach, and all the crowd gathered on the river beach rushed towards the city gate like crazy.

The Great Western Army in the crowd thought it was an opportunity, they drew their knives and rushed in shouting.

"No, this is a trap." A Daxi general went in and regretted it.Entering Diaoyu City, there is a long and narrow corridor inside. There are smooth walls on both sides of the corridor, one foot high, full of soldiers holding firecrackers.

The task of the soldiers of the Eighth Army was very simple. When they saw someone holding a weapon in the corridor, they would shoot without mercy.There was a burst of gunfire for a while, and the first batch of Daxi Army soldiers who tried to attack were killed on the spot at the entrance of the corridor.

The Navy's warships controlled the river, blocking the reinforcements of the Atlantis Army from crossing the river.Those who have already crossed the river have become shackles among themselves, and have nowhere to escape.

"Damn it, the officers and soldiers are too cunning." Zhang Kewang lost hundreds of dollars in this battle, and sent thousands of people along the way.

The crowd entering the tunnel cannot retreat, but can only continue forward.After walking a few hundred steps in a zigzag way, I came to two cave entrances, and the scene in front of me was a little more spacious.

"Men are on the left, and women are on the right. Everyone goes in along the hole, and anyone who violates it will be killed!" Under the dense muzzles of firecrackers at the entrance of the hole, people trembled in fear.

Entering the cave, there is a huge iron cage.There are still patrolling soldiers above their heads, holding gleaming bayonets.

"All of you, take off all your clothes and leave nothing behind. Anyone who violates the rules will be killed." Immediately afterwards, another order came.

The two soldiers of the Western Army had weapons hidden on their bodies. They dared not take off their clothes and could only resist.It's a pity that they couldn't break through the iron cage at all, and they died on the spot in the blink of an eye.

The fortress of Diaoyu City has enough space for the defenders to play.Building such a place to screen out spies is like a second class for engineers.

Thousands of civilians and hundreds of soldiers were quickly identified.Zhu Youjian happily asked the navy to take these people away in batches. Anyway, his navy now has so many ships that there is almost no place to put them.

Facing the river on three sides and the Diaoyu City with cliffs on one side, Zhu Youjian didn't believe that Zhang Kewang could attack unless he had wings.

"Your Majesty, today Zhang Kewang sent thousands of people." Zhu Youjian spent the next days surrounded by battle reports like Deng Zhirong.

"It's boring, can't he play some new tricks?" Zhu Youjian felt very bored. He no longer went on a "date" with Zhang Kewang every day. Zhang Kewang's facial features had lost interest to him. What he longed for was youth. The beauty of the girl.

"There are thousands of soldiers sent here, isn't he thinking of relying on these people to turn against the water?" Zuo Maodi also felt that this battle was boring, too plain as water.

However, it is not easy to fight such a bland battle for more than 20 years.Zhu Youjian now especially admires the group of people guarding Diaoyu City in the Southern Song Dynasty.It is indeed not easy to persist in simple things for [-] years.

"If he knows where the soldiers he sent over are, Zhang Kewang will be very disappointed." Liu Tichun interjected.

"Thousands of people are digging coal in Guizhou, the number is too small. It's better to have tens of thousands more, our engineers are seriously short of cement." Fan Laogen usually dare not mix in the conversation between the emperor and the generals, but this time he was bold Woke up.

"Hahaha! Lao Fan, you are quite humorous." Everyone laughed.

Zhang Kewang really wanted to use the soldiers he sent out to start a riot.Because according to the usual practice, after the peasant army is arrested, most of them will be incorporated by officers and soldiers.If thousands of people join the officers and soldiers, it is possible to place internal support in Diaoyu City.
