Chapter 1351: The Infinite Road of the Heavens
Two flowers bloomed, one on each side, and turned to talk about Bai Wang.
That night, when the officers and soldiers were attacking with all their might, Bai Wang was sitting in command and preparing for a fierce battle with the officers and soldiers when he suddenly heard the sound of killing behind him, Hao Shaoqi and Ji Jike led more than a thousand soldiers to kill from behind the formation as if falling from the sky, and the officers and soldiers in front saw this and immediately advanced with all their might, and the already crumbling military spirit collapsed in an instant, and they took advantage of the night to cover and flee in a hurry.
The only way to retreat in the southeast and northwest was to look south and flee into the deep mountains, Bai Wang fled in embarrassment under the protection of his own soldiers, crossed Qishan Lake and plunged into Qishan.
Qi Mountain said that it is a mountain, but in fact it is just a hill by the lake, the trees on the top are lush and do not see the day, there is a Tibetan temple at the foot of the South Mountain, after Bai Wang's rout enters the mourning dog into Qi Mountain, I am afraid that the officers and soldiers will chase and dare not stay for a long time, and when they go over the mountain and pass through the temple, they directly loot and continue to flee south.
Qi Mountain further south of the terrain is relatively flat, the rout ran for several miles in one breath to reach the foot of the mountains before stopping to rest, Bai Wang roughly counted only more than 400 people, suddenly sad and indignant at a tree crazy hammering, in the blink of an eye the hands have been skin and flesh spilled blood, the subordinates quickly pulled it down, Bai Wang howled in the sky, there was silence for a while, hundreds of people hung their heads and were extremely lonely.
Bai Wang's collapse of the thieves army empathized, entrenched in De'an for several years, Ren Zuo Liangyu and Lu Daqi how to conquer are immovable, and then out of the mountain like a tiger, attacking the city and plundering the terrain like a bamboo, just a few months along the north of the river to break through the number of mansions and approach the outside of Nanjing, the limelight is unmatched for a while, everyone feels that the sky is going to change, and they are going to turn over and be the master.
But who knows! God said that if you change your face, you will change your face, and in just over a month, you will be embarrassed to this point, and there are only a few hundred people left in the tens of thousands of troops at this time, like a lost dog, who can feel good in her heart.
The reality is cruel, but he can only grit his teeth and face it, Bai Wang calmed down a little and knew that it was not yet time to die at this time, but if he was not prepared to deal with it, these hundreds of mouths would be shattered in a blink of an eye, and at that time he would not be a lost dog, but would become a dead corpse.
So he sent people to Qishan Lake to inquire about the news, to see if the officers and soldiers were chasing after them, and if there were other friendly troops scattered elsewhere, he quickly summoned them, and at the same time asked people to go to the surrounding terrain to reconnoiter the terrain to see if there were any villages as footholds.
At dawn, the good news kept coming, the officers and soldiers did not go into the mountains to pursue only outside the mountains to persuade them to surrender, but the persuasion was mostly cannon fodder and the common people, the real thief army was worried that the officers and soldiers were just lured to surrender and did not dare to go out of the mountains to surrender, scattered in the mountains and forests on the south side of Pingshan Lake, and after getting the news, they moved closer to Baiwang, among which there was Yuan Sanzhong.
And the spies in charge of scouting the surrounding area brought good news, and behind them were not deep mountains, but a few long large hills running north-south and east-west, and there were dozens of large and small villages between the hills.
Bai Wang couldn't help but look up to the sky and shouted: "The sky is endless, and I am also!" ”
It was close to noon, and the thief army that fled to the mountains slowly gathered, and there were nearly a thousand people under the count, which made Bai Wang's heart feel a little better, and the spirit of beating to appease the Qingshan left by his subordinates was not afraid of no firewood, and the rebellion for more than ten years has cultivated the ability to take root, and only a small gang of dozens of people can lay down half of the Ming Dynasty, and now it is still possible, not to mention that he still has hole cards in his hand at this time, Anqing is still in his hand, and the worst can also detour to De'an's base, and the worst consequence is that he can't get out, so he can take root here. The spies have already reconnoitred, and this hill is more than ten miles to the south, and it is close to the reckless mountains, and you can set up camp on any hill and start all over again!
Fleeing all night, the thief army was frightened, frightened, hot and hungry and found a cool place in the mountains and forests to lie back to his senses, Bai Wang was ruthless in his heart, and ordered his subordinates to plunder the village everywhere, not to anyone but food, and the thieves suddenly came to the spirit and shouted together.
When the thief army was busy plundering, Bai Wang and Yuan Sanzhong carefully analyzed the current situation in a secluded place, the officers and soldiers had just entered Chizhou City, and it was impossible to immediately enter the mountain to pursue them, or they would not be able to surrender for a few days before chasing them into the mountain, or they might even go straight to Anqing without asking about them.
If he surrenders, Bai Wang will definitely not be able to surrender, he knows very well in his heart, he has been fighting with the imperial court in Jiujiang for several years, and the imperial court hates him to the core, once he surrenders to Cheng, even if he does not kill him at that time, he will find an opportunity to kill himself in the future, so he would rather die in battle than surrender, at least he still has the backbone to die like this!
But if they don't surrender, what if the officers and soldiers go into the mountains to chase after them?
Bai Wang claimed to be the king of mountains and forests, and he was good at guerrilla warfare that crossed mountains and mountains and drilled forests, and he was not afraid of officers and soldiers coming in at all, especially since he knew that these officers and soldiers did not have the slightest experience in jungle warfare...... Wrong! Bai Wang and Yuan Sanzhong suddenly thought of Wang Tizhong, who had been the most courageous subordinate, if he entered the mountain......
If the officers and soldiers did not enter the mountain and went straight to Anqing, they could find a way out of the mountain, or take advantage of the sudden outbreak while they were attacking Anqing, or go around to the front of them to ambush them.
But what if the officers and soldiers send troops into the mountains? Looks like we're going to have to do a lot of preparations!
"If it is only the people in the king's body who enter the mountain, at most two or three thousand, we can first familiarize ourselves with the terrain and then use the terrain to deal with him, it is not certain who will kill the deer, if the officers and soldiers enter the mountain in a big way, then we can only retreat to the mountains, so we must first reserve more grain and grass for a long-term plan" Yuan Sanzhong sighed long, Bai Wang thought so.
Just after noon, the robbing thieves have come back one after another, some people are carrying pockets full of grain, some people are leading cattle and sheep to carry chickens, ducks and geese and other domestic animals, it can be seen that the harvest is very rich, but pity those people in the mountains, I thought that they could avoid the disaster in the mountains, but they were looted by the rout, of course, the thieves will have other evil deeds at the same time as the plunder.
These thieves were killed by the officers and soldiers last night like a lost dog, and now they will sprinkle their anger on the people in the mountains, it is not good to fight, robbery is definitely a good hand, and presumably they prefer the pleasure of robbery in the war, they have worked tirelessly to go over the mountains and mountains to loot the surrounding villages for more than ten miles, and the materials brought back make Bai Wang very satisfied, and it is roughly estimated that more than 1,000 people will last for three or five days.
Naturally, there are other villages in the mountains, so you can grab them after eating.
Just when the thief army was celebrating the harvest and morale was gradually recovering, the spies on the front line reported that less than 1,000 officers and soldiers had entered the mountain, but an old acquaintance Wang Zamao.
Hearing that Wang Zamao entered the mountain, Bai Wang and Yuan Sanzhong were angry and angry and couldn't help but scold, Yuan Sanzhong even volunteered to lead the troops to fight with him, but was poured cold water by Bai Wang, at this time, the morale of the army can no longer fight, and if you barely fight hard, it will only make the army's morale more sluggish, which is equivalent to forcing them to surrender out of the mountain, not to mention that many people lose their armor when they run away, and they don't even have a guy in their hands, so what is fighting with officers and soldiers, stones!
Therefore, at this moment, the thief army is okay to rob the mountain people and the people, and they are fighting...... Forget it, at least not for now.
"But if you let Wang Zamao drive straight in, you can chase him in half a day at most, what should I do then?" Yuan Sanzhong was a little anxious, but Bai Wang seemed extremely calm: "Don't worry, whether it is Wang Zamao or the others after entering the mountain, they will become cautious and cautious and dare not venture in, you can send some people over to deal with him or guide him to other places, so we will have enough time to prepare well."
Jiang is really old and spicy, Bai Wang didn't guess, Wang Zamao took his remaining six or seven hundred people into the mountain, ready to capture Bai Wangjiaguan Jinjue, he cherished the opportunity given by Chang Yu very much, so after crossing Qishan Lake and landing in Qishan, he steadily and steadily spread his manpower all over the mountains and fields to move forward, shouting all kinds of persuasion slogans in the mountains, what preferential treatment of the captives to seek glory, what rumors Bai Wang surrendered, the court treated him well, and said that if anyone caught Bai Wang, he would also be rewarded......
This seemingly nonsense slogan actually played a lot of roles, some thieves hidden in the mountains couldn't bear the hunger and bitterness and came out to surrender, and Wang Zamao also had the faith to treat it kindly, this move even attracted a few Bai Wang to come to surrender, and inform Bai Wang of the approximate location.
Wang Zamao was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to advance directly, who knows if Bai Wang dug a pit for him deliberately sent people to pretend to take refuge in him, but in fact, he passed false information to lure him into the trap, he knew too well the routines of the thief army, and in previous years, he had not been so cunning Zuo Liangyu.
So Wang Zamao summoned people and horses to take the Dizang Temple as a base and sent several spies to reconnoiter the location of the Baiwang Department.
