Wusheng Town, Dongming County, Shandong Town Supervisor Military Office.

Zhu Cihong swept his eyes at everyone and said sharply: "Today's battle is a battle that must be won. If he wins, the official will listen to the heavens, and he will let the meritorious deeds of the saint know about them. Promotions and knighthoods are no problem! However, the official is also talking ugly in front, and if he dares to violate the order, the official will never spare his life! In our army, there is no selfishness, only military law is engaged! ”

"Yes!" A group of generals, including Liu Zeqing and others, responded in unison.

Seeing this, Zhu Cihong's expression eased, and he smiled a little more and said to Liu Zeqing: "Liu Junmen, you are a general in the army." In the first battle against the breaking army, you go first. However, you don't have to worry about the strength of the army, I have ordered all the mules and horses in the army to be concentrated, and Liu Zhen and his cavalry will assemble on your left flank. They can always be mounted infantry to support you in battle. Your right flank is the 2,000 elite infantry of the Linqing battalion, ready to respond, you only need to concentrate on the central army to fight. ”

After listening to Zhu Cihong's words, Liu Zeqing's smile suddenly became a little reluctant.

Gathering all the mules and horses, isn't it just to guard against Liu Zeqing's escape? The left and right wings are on either side, is this a shield or surveillance?

Liu Zeqing slandered in his heart, but his face was completely loyal and good: "Yes, my lord." The end will definitely live up to the expectations of adults. ”

The combined forces of Shandong Town and Linqing Camp quickly moved under Zhu Cihong's orders. Inside and out, there was a lot of people, and there was a lot of noise everywhere.

And Zhu Cihong also went around in person, in addition to the most basic allocation of people, what he did the most was to rectify the order, and the manpower of each battalion was classified into each other.

Because it's so messy here. Moreover, it was not the soldiers of Shandong Town who were in chaos, but Zhu Cihong's Linqing camp.

No matter how calm and calm Zhu Cihong is, how well trained he is. However, it is still a fantasy for a soldier who has only been trained for half a month to be agile on the battlefield.

The drums of war are together, and the enemy army is coming. The three thousand soldiers under Zhu Cihong's command suddenly became a mess. Zhu Cihong's order has been distributed, and the heralds have already passed the order to the hands of officers at all levels.

But when he arrived here, the Linqing camp was in chaos, and the generals roared like thunder, and the soldiers under his command were either dumbfounded and stood still, or they were dazed, as if they had lost their souls, and they were even more bold to sneak away and become deserters.

Zhu Cihong looked at this scene with a slightly embarrassed face.

Chang Zhilang, who was on the side, was also dumbfounded when he saw this, and said repeatedly: "My lord, are you sending all the old pawns back?" ”

Zhu Cihong shook his head.

Speaking of which, a large part of the chaos of the new army in the Linqing camp has to be carried by Zhu Cihong. Because, Zhu Cihong took back most of the old instructors who were previously transferred to the Linqing camp. Although all the general flags are still held by veterans with some experience, most of the small flags can only be handled by a few outstanding newcomers who have only undergone superficial training.

Without these recruits familiar, experienced and experienced veterans as the backbone, the momentum of Linqing's operation suddenly went into chaos.

Just when Chang Zhilang looked at all this with a worried face, he saw a sudden roar in the camp: "Don't you dare to disobey the military order?" ”

This person roared, and immediately made all the soldiers in the battalion look at him.

Then, someone saw this person holding a heavy glaive knife in one hand and three heads with wide eyes in the other.

There is indeed a reason for these three heads not to be blind.

Because......

All three are deserters!

Seeing this scene, someone suddenly recognized the person and exclaimed: "It's Xu Maniac, it's Xu Dadao!" ”

The soldier who was called Xu Dadao dropped his head, looked at the messy soldiers, and suddenly roared again, saying:

"Death to the deserter!"

"Death to those who disobey military orders!"

"Death to those who do not obey orders!"

The three sentences were shouted, and the camp suddenly froze slightly, but then, I don't know who started it, everyone walked behind their small flags.

At this point, the general flag of the whole army breathed a sigh of relief, and they drank the small flag under their command.

The dispatch of troops from the Linqing camp was finally not delayed.

Afterwards, I saw this military general who was a madman Xu saluting Zhu Cihong from afar, carrying a military flag with the words "Linqing Camp" and walking towards the left flank of the army.

On the other side, Liu Zhen had already led dozens of knights under his command, covering the foot soldiers behind him to go to the front of the battle.

At this point, when Liu Zeqing's 5,000 soldiers left the barracks and became the Chinese army. The Linqing camp on Zhu Cihong's side finally set up a military formation and was ready to meet the enemy.

On the opposite side, the battle formation of the invading army has also been set up.

Just at a glance, Zhu Cihong and Liu Zeqing both saw the strength of their opponents.

At this moment, the intrusive army is no longer as weak as it was a few years ago. After successive battles, the invading army after sweeping the Central Plains has gradually upgraded from the form of a homeless person. The most obvious thing is that this is a force with considerable combat effectiveness without old and weak women and children.

This means that the army has begun to consciously begin the reform of the military system. In fact, Zhu Cihong did not expect badly, after the Kaifeng First World War was over, Li Zicheng would establish Dashun and reform the military system after sweeping Shaanxi.

As Li Zicheng's strategist and wise general, Li Yan is naturally a pioneer in this regard. At the same time, what is more fortunate than Zhu Cihong is that the famine in Henan and successive victories have caused countless officers and soldiers to gradually take the initiative or surrender and passively join the invasion army. This makes the strength of the breaking army so much stronger.

All this means that the enemy Zhu Cihong faces today will be more difficult to deal with than he imagined.

Zhu Cihong stared at all this, waved his hand slightly, and ordered an attack.

Knock knock knock......

The drums sounded, and this was the order to attack in the army.

Liu Kecheng and Ruan Yingzhao looked at Liu Zeqing one after another.

Liu Zeqing looked at the gazes of the two, and suddenly smiled lightly, revealing some slightly calm eyes: "In this battle, you have to fight hard!" ”

"Send troops, attack!" Liu Zeqing sneered and ordered. At this moment, he thought that he had completely seen Zhu Cihong's details.

Liu Zeqing must be used in every battle, and victory is inseparable from Liu Zeqing's Shandong town soldiers.

Thinking of this, Liu Zeqing had some faint expectations in his heart, and even more hidden a sense of pleasure that he couldn't wait to uncover that scene.

Thinking of this, Liu Zeqing held back his thoughts, did not let himself show his flaws, looked at Liu Kecheng, who was a little able to fight a little under his command, and said: "Liu Kecheng, this battle, you will fight!" ”

"The last general commands!" Liu Kecheng was slightly stunned, thought of something, and said in a deep voice.

Subsequently, Liu Kecheng, surrounded by more than 30 personal guards around him, began to march with his soldiers. It's just that compared to the chaos in the Linqing camp, the soldiers in this Shandong town are even more chaotic. The military formation was laid out, crooked, and it only took a dozen steps to straighten out, and in the end, it simply didn't matter.
