Yuan Huang's main force did not arrive, and the Wolf Warrior Battalion and the Wild Lion Battalion did not dare to do their best to take the initiative to attack, after all, they were facing more than 100,000 young and strong soldiers of the Meng Nationality.

Luo Rong and Jiang Yue were not arrogant enough to dare to use 5,000 people to attack more than 100,000 combatable soldiers, even if they were a rabble in the eyes of the Zhennan army.

Luo Rong and Jiang Yue are both Xiao Ruxun's Ningxia pro-soldier veterans, who followed Xiao Ruxun to eat wind and sand in the northwest and received sunshine and fought with the northern captives, and made great contributions in the Battle of North Korea and were gradually promoted, and gradually emerged.

After arriving in Burma, he made further meritorious achievements, and after the reorganization of the Zhennan Army in the twenty-fourth year of Wanli, the two of them stood out and became the chief generals of the cavalry troops.

They usually learn something from Xiao Ruxun's side, they know what kind of military habits and command habits Xiao Ruxun has, and they know that although Xiao Ruxun despises his enemies, he has never despised them.

To put it simply, Xiao Ruxun once explained to them that we are the best, and all those who try to resist and hostile us are barbarians and fools, and they don't need to have any sympathy for these people, just die to death.

But there is one point, that is, we can't underestimate their combat effectiveness, how many barbarians and fools have we suffered since ancient times?

As a result, the generals of the Zhennan Army inherited Xiao Ruxun's concept under the education and propaganda of Xiao Ruxun's many conferences and almost brainwashing.

Even if a barbarian bite, even if he despises these guys to the soles of his feet, he will not ignore the basic combat power they have, after all, everyone only has one life, and when they fight, they fight with their lives, and what they fight for is luck and hardness, and no one has a second life, right?

At this point, the generals of the Zhennan Army all uphold Qi Jiguang's concept, that is, the strategic goal must be achieved, but it should not be achieved in a stupid and brutal way, but at the lowest cost, and on the premise that there is no need to pay for their lives, they should not die in vain.

The reason why Xiao Ruxun vigorously promoted the soldier literacy program is also to let the generals themselves develop the consciousness of cherishing life and not giving up their own and soldiers' lives in vain, and in this era when the people's literacy rate is less than 1 percent, literacy is a very valuable thing.

As a result, the generals naturally began to cherish the soldiers under their command who could write, read, and write, had a little cultural literacy and strong combat effectiveness, and would not casually treat the lives of soldiers as the lives of pigs and dogs.

Luo Rong and Jiang Yue are both staunch supporters of Xiao Ruxun's consistent philosophy, loyal, and naturally abide by Xiao Ruxun's fundamental principle of not making senseless sacrifices, and never go to war when they shouldn't, but now that Yuan Huang is here and has brought the main force, what else is there to say?

Beat him up!

Without waiting for the Meng coalition army to put the troops in order, when it was still a mess, as the vanguard army, the Wolf Battalion and the Qinglong Battalion of the Zhennan Army were killed out of Pingxi City under the leadership of Zhao Hu, the boss of the Yuancong faction, and marched all the way to the north.

On April 8, the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, Zhao Hu broke the more than 10,000 troops hastily gathered by the Meng people ten miles north of Pingxi City, beheaded more than 1,000, killed most of them, and the remaining less than 1,000 captives were released by Zhao Hu, but they were all incomplete.

Either they are missing arms, or they are missing ears, or they are missing noses and lips, all of which Zhao Hu specially ordered to be put back to spread panic and strengthen the psychological offensive.

In his opinion, this kind of loose alliance without a backbone and opponents with a very low level of civilization, as long as they strengthen the fear of the Ming army in their hearts, regardless of their large numbers, they are actually vulnerable.

has been by Xiao Ruxun's side for a long time, and Zhao Hu has also learned a lot of Xiao Ruxun's usual battlefield routines, and under Xiao Ruxun's careful cultivation, the growth of the three main generals of the Yuancong faction is obvious.

At the earliest, Zhao Hu could only rush and kill, and he was the first fierce general of the Yuancong faction, but now, Yuan Huang commented that Zhao Hu was a real '10,000 enemies', that is, a general who could command an army of 10,000 people to gallop on the battlefield.

Zhao Hu won the first battle, the morale of the Ming army was greatly boosted, the vanguard army steadily advanced northward, and the follow-up troops set off one after another, but at this moment, Yuan Huang, as the commander of this battle, was not in a hurry to keep up with the footsteps of the large army in person.

He also has to complete the special entrustment given to him by Xiao Ruxun.

The targets are Bishop Alexander and Matteo Ricci, who are currently recuperating from physical and mental wounds in the city of Pingxi.

Yuan Huang, as Xiao Ruxun's closest and most trusted elder, absolutely knew Xiao Ruxun's true thoughts, and he knew that Xiao Ruxun had no intention of allowing these Europa people to preach in the realm of the Ming Dynasty

Xiao Ruxun once discussed with Yuan Huang the ideas of these missionary guys, and showed extreme vigilance and disgust for their real purpose, the reason why they were kept was because they needed to communicate with the Europa, and they needed a better civilized image to fool the Europa, so that they could use all their good things for their own use.

Second, it is to create a pretext for war with the Mon people.

As for Matteo Ricci, Yuan Huang knew very well that Xiao Ruxun didn't take him as a thing at all, if it weren't for his knowledge of Chinese, his good memory, and his ability to write many Western classics to help Xiao Ruxun establish a scientific system, Xiao Ruxun would not have allowed this guy to stay in his Zhennanhou Mansion at all.

Even so, Xiao Ruxun also set a lot of restrictions on Matteo Ricci, basically not giving him the opportunity to contact outsiders, not giving him time and space to preach, and the only one who has been in contact with him for a long time, Chen Longzheng, is a downright romantic mallet, almost reversing Matteo Ricci.

To put it bluntly, Xiao Ruxun is squeezing their use value, and one day this use value is gone, Xiao Ruxun will turn his face and deny people in due course.

Yuan Huang understands this very well, so at the moment, they still have a lot of surplus value to use and extract, and they can't treat them as if they are nothing, so Yuan Huang sent them the care of relatives on behalf of Xiao Ruxun.

"Mr. Alexander, Mr. Leigh, I can't imagine that such a thing could happen!"

Yuan Huang looked at Bishop Alexander and Matteo Ricci with a sad and distressed look on their faces, and then waved his hand and asked the soldiers to bring them the gifts he had prepared.

Bishop Alexander shook Yuan Huang's hand.

"Mr. Yuan, I ...... I really didn't expect that in this world, there would be such a barbaric race and people, they killed their own compatriots, not to mention, but also killed our priests, we have seventeen priests were brutally killed, I ask you to uphold justice for us, must uphold justice for us! ”
