Chapter 647: The Price

Chapter 647: The Price

Everyone knows that the main force of the Dajin army's siege, Fei Yangwu's troops, are all cavalry. It is not impossible for cavalry to dismount and attack the city. However, in doing so, it is entirely based on one's own shortcomings to fight for the enemy's strengths, and one will suffer a big loss. There is no such reason that the professional siege infantry does not come forward, but the cavalry dismounts to attack the city. Fei Yangwu said that his determination was fine, but inadvertently slapped Hauge in the face.

"Tomorrow, I'll pull all the people out!"

"If you don't take Dongjiabao, you will never retreat!"

Hauge couldn't help but speak.

In his hands, there are 7,000 natives, 7,000 Han army flags, and 2,000 Korean servants. In terms of quantity, such a siege force is definitely not weak. Except for fortified cities such as Jingshi, Jinzhou, and Shanhaiguan, ordinary towns and cities could not resist their onslaught at all. It stands to reason that a town like Dongjiabao should not be the opponent of the Dajin Army at all!

The problem is that the ** bag of the Tiger Ben Army is indeed powerful. This thing doesn't care how many people there are, and after a loud bang, no matter how many people there are, they all have to fall. The more the number of people, the more casualties. But the number of people was small, and the fire of the Tiger Ben army was so powerful that it could not rush under the city wall at all.

It's a dead knot, a dead knot that can't be untied.

As long as Huang Taiji still wants to attack Dongjiabao, as long as the Dajin Army still wants to capture Zhang Zhun, he must be pierced by this hedgehog, wrong, by this porcupine. The more fierce and powerful the attack of the Dajin army, the more powerful the porcupine's counterattack, the deeper the stabbing wound, and the more blood will be shed.

However, the Daikin army could not fail to attack. For the man they were going to destroy was hidden under the spikes of the porcupine. Can the Daikin Army give up on this person? Difficult! As long as there is the slightest opportunity, the Dajin Army is not willing to let it go! This person, the damage to the Dajin Kingdom is really too deep! If you don't kill him before it's too late, you'll be in even more trouble in the future.

In order to show his support for Haoge, Zaisambu He said awe-inspiringly: "Great Khan, our Horqin tribe is willing to send five thousand warriors to participate in the attack. ”

Huang Taiji nodded, his face gradually softened.

From the bottom of his heart, Huang Taiji did not want the Horqin tribe to suffer losses. For the Horqin tribe, Huang Taiji is very trusting. He was bent on making the Horqin tribe the largest tribe in the Mongolian steppe, so as to control the entire Mongolian steppe. Therefore, he just rejected Zaisangbuhe's proposal. But now, he can't continue to refuse. Because, this is Zaisambu and his private support for Hauge. And now Hauge really needs support.

After pondering for a moment, Huang Taiji said in an impassioned tone: "The Manchurian warriors and the Mongolian warriors have the same ancestor and ancestry, and they are not distinguished from each other. I emphasize once again that whether it is a Manchurian warrior or a Mongolian warrior, as long as Dongjiabao is taken, as long as Zhang Zhun's head is obtained, I will not be stingy with rewards. ”

After a slight pause, Huang Taiji said slowly: "Whoever takes Dongjiabao, I will reward him with Fuyuwei!" His children and grandchildren can rule over Fuyuwei forever! ”

Before the words fell, there was an exclamation of exclamation, and then silence returned.

One stone stirs up a thousand waves, Huang Taiji is really willing!

He actually took out all the Fu Yu Wei!

In the twentieth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1387 AD), the Ming Dynasty sent Feng Sheng, Fu Youde and Lan Yu to lead an army of 200,000 to detour through Qingzhou (in the territory of present-day Balin Right Banner in Inner Mongolia) to surround the Nahachu army station. Nahachu was forced to surrender. The above-mentioned Mongol tribes lost their barriers, and their garrisons could be plundered by the Ming Dynasty at any time.

In the twenty-first year of Hongwu (1388), the Mongol Great Khan Tugusi Timur was defeated by the army of the Ming general Lanyu in Yuerhai (now Bear Lake, Inner Mongolia) and went west. These major military defeats left the Mongol tribes east of the Great Khing'an Mountains in a situation of isolation and helplessness. They had no choice but to join the Ming court. Note that this is a temporary attachment, not a permanent attachment.

In the twenty-second year of Hongwu (1389), the Ming court set up Duoyan, Taining and Fuyu Sanwei in this area. Duoyanwei is in the upper reaches of the Qu Chuan Er River (referring to the Gui Leli River, a southern tributary of the Taoer River) and the area of Duoyan Mountain; Taining Wei is in the Ta'er River (now Tao'er River) basin, that is, Taining Road in the Yuan Dynasty; Fuyuwei was in the Nenjiang River and Fuyu River (now Wuyuer River) basins.

At the same time, the Ming court conferred official positions at all levels on the leaders of the three guards, and carried out entrapment and restraint. Feng Azashri is the conductor of Tainingwei, and Tabin Timur is the commander of Tongzhi; Hai Sanan replied that he was the commander of Fu Yuwei; Tuolu Kuzar is the commander of Duoyanwei. The Ming court demanded that they "each lead his own department in order to secure the livestock." In short, it is a set of things that accept the imperial court on the surface, but in fact, in most places, they are still autonomous.

Fu Yuwei was one of the original Duoyan Sanwei and an important ally of the Ming Kingdom. Later, due to the change of the policy of the Ming State and the continuous weakening of its own strength, Duoyan Sanwei finally broke away from the Ming State and threw himself into the embrace of the Dajin Kingdom. Most of the territory under the jurisdiction of Duoyan Sanwei belongs to the Horqin grassland. Fuyuwei is located in the northernmost part of the Horqin grassland, with abundant water and grass, and is an important pasture and forest area.

[Author's note: The territory ruled by Fu Yuwei was near today's Ulanhot, Inner Mongolia.] 】

Who is not willing to be the master of Fu Yuwei? As long as you can control Fuyuwei, you can breed a large number of war horses, cattle and sheep, and you can also breed a large number of people, greatly increasing the strength of the tribe. It's just that because of the relationship between the Horqin tribe, everyone has some scruples. After all, Fuyuwei is also a part of the Horqin grassland, and without the consent of the Horqin tribe, it is basically impossible to effectively rule here in the future.

Now, Huang Taiji took the initiative to take out Fu Yuwei, which really made many people feel high. There is Huang Taiji's Chrysostom, and I believe that the Horqin tribe will no longer dare to obstruct it. With access to this important area of pasture and forest, it is possible to increase the population by tens of thousands over a few decades. For nomads, tens of thousands of people are a very large number. It is not impossible to exceed 100,000 and become the largest tribe in the Mongolian steppe.

Zai Sambuhe immediately said: "Our Horqin tribe is willing to send 10,000 warriors to assist in the siege. ”

As soon as Huang Taiji's words fell, the old man's heart moved.

He couldn't help but be impressed. Although as the leader of the Horqin tribe, Zaisambu and the tribe did not unite all of the Horqin tribes. Fuyuwei in the north is a blank. He also knew that due to political reasons, it was impossible for Huang Taiji to let him rule the entire Horqin Grassland before, lest his strength would be too strong and difficult to control. But now it's different, now the strength of Dajin Kingdom is much stronger than before, and there is no need to worry about him anymore.

Such a good opportunity, of course, he can't let it go. Even if it costs something, he's willing. The price of 10,000 people, for the increasingly powerful Horqin tribe, only four or five years can make up for it. The grassland where Fuyuwei is located is so rich and beautiful that if it can be connected, the number of horses, cattle and sheep of the Horqin tribe can be increased by at least forty percent.

Since Zaisangbu and the others opened their mouths, they all shut up very consciously. The Horqin tribe is powerful, with tens of thousands of cavalry, where can others have the strength to compete with him? Among all the people here, there is only Hauge who has the strength to compete with Zaisangbu. Even Azig does not have such strength. But Hauge's biggest goal is to inherit his father's throne, so naturally he doesn't have any thoughts about Fu Yuwei. Therefore, in a big way, this Fu Yuwei is basically the bag of the Horqin tribe.

Of course, it is not excluded that in the real battle, there will be a small tribe that will take the shit luck and attack Dongjiabao first. Therefore, this reward of Huang Taiji is not very stimulating for the three major Mongolian tribes, but it is very stimulating for other small Mongolian tribes. Of course, the natural conditions of the territory currently controlled by these small Mongolian tribes will not be very good. If they can control Fuyuwei, they will be completely turned over. Therefore, the leaders of many small Mongolian tribes were bright-eyed, secretly thinking about how they could rush into Dongjiabao first.

In addition to the leaders of small Mongolian tribes, there are also the middle level of the Dajin army such as Fei Yangwu and Debach. Although they are all Jialazhangjing, their status in the Dajin Kingdom is relatively high. However, they are not lords after all, and they are not qualified to control a tribe. Looking at the meaning of Huang Taiji, whoever makes the first contribution will be able to become the master of Fuyuwei. If they can do their job, they will be able to break free from their old fetters and become true tribal leaders.

Who wouldn't want to be a tribal leader? Who wouldn't want to have a territory that is entirely their own? Who wouldn't want to banish cattle and sheep in a grassland with abundant water and grass? All of a sudden, the fighting spirit in their hearts was all ignited. They were originally a little depressed, but they immediately became high-spirited, and they were full of expectations for tomorrow's battle.

Huang Taiji nodded with satisfaction, feeling that the reward he threw out had successfully stimulated the morale of the middle and lower-level officers and soldiers. That's exactly what he needs. The upper echelons were restrained by him, and no one dared to retreat. As long as the morale of the officers and men in the middle and lower ranks is raised, the combat effectiveness of the Dajin Army will still be so strong. The attack on Dongjiabao is still promising.

After a while, Huang Taiji's gaze slowly fell on Azig's body.

He was angry with Azig in his heart, but he had to admit that in terms of military affairs, Azig still had some ability. Otherwise, his exploits would not have been so prominent. If you simply compare the fighting skills, Azig is indeed better than Hauge. Now, the battle of Dongjiabao has suffered a setback, and he really wants to hear what Azig really thinks. It's not enough to have bait, there is also a way to get it.

Azig said slowly: "Great Khan, I don't know if I should say something?" ”

Huang Taiji frowned quietly, and said quietly: "You say." ”

Haug was defeated, and Azig got the most benefit, and suddenly the salted fish turned over and jumped up again. What should not be said is obviously an excuse, and it is clearly to show Huang Taiji's face. You just said that you want me to learn how to fight with Hauge, and I'm so humble now, don't I just listen to you? I obediently listen to you and learn from Hauge...... Naturally, it was Huang Taiji and Haoge who were uncomfortable. But it can't be helped, who called Hauge accidentally lost the battle?

Azig said slowly: "I think that if we continue to attack, we can't just focus on the area around Dongjiabao, we have to attack in multiple places. We will attack Shandong in the south, Zhendingfu in the west, Henan in the southwest, and other places, creating the illusion of rumors. Doing so can make the Tiger Ben army strained and unable to reinforce in time. If there is a loophole, we can seize the opportunity and close it in one fell swoop. ”

Zilharang frowned and said, "Is it useful to march to these places?" These places are all under the jurisdiction of the Ming Imperial Court, and they have nothing to do with Zhang Zhun at all, so he will not take the initiative to reinforce them! On the contrary, we have lost the strength of the Ming court, and the area controlled by the Tiger Ben army will continue to expand. The larger the area controlled by the Tiger Army, the faster its strength will increase, and the greater the damage it will do to us. ”

Azig said in a deep voice: "I have also thought about this issue. However, if Zhang Zhun is really hiding in Dongjiabao and refuses to come out, we can't stay here with Zhang Zhun until the end of the year, right? After all, we have to go back to Liaodong. If we can't catch Zhang Zhun, what can we do? Only by increasing their own strength as much as possible. We need to plunder more people, more supplies. The strength of the Tiger Ben Army is constantly increasing, and our strength must also continue to increase. ”

Fei Yangwu interjected: "We carry so many people and supplies, it is easy to be attacked by the Tiger Army!" As we all know, once we loot a large number of people and supplies, the mobility of the troops will be greatly reduced. If you encounter the Tiger Ben Army at this time, you may suffer a loss. ”

Azig said proudly: "Don't be afraid! As soon as the Tiger Ben Army leaves Dongjiabao, we will immediately abandon all the population and materials and turn around to fight the Tiger Ben Army. Isn't this just luring Zhang Zhun out? In the field, who were the cavalry of our Dajin Kingdom afraid of? ”

Zilharang still frowned and said, "Your idea is too risky. Attacking from all sides, you need to disperse your forces. In case of other points, the defense is as strong as Dongjiabao, wouldn't the casualties be greater? ”

Azig said categorically: "If this is the case, I propose to withdraw the troops immediately!" ”

Zilharang stopped talking.

Azig said unyieldingly: "If the stronghold of the Tiger Ben Army is really stronger than Jinzhou, we will give up attacking the fortification and seek other ways to deal with Zhang Zhun!" However, I believe that with the current strength of the Tiger Ben Army, it is impossible to deploy defenses in the entire Shandong, Henan, Zhendingfu and other places. I believe that as long as the Ming army is stationed in these areas. ”

Huang Taiji didn't like the tone of Azig's speech. Azig had just turned over as soon as he salted the fish, and his tone of voice was a bit domineering. Everyone knows that Jierharang is the representative of his Emperor Taiji, and he is domineering towards Jierharang, which is domineering towards his Emperor Taiji. However, he had to admit that there was some truth in Azig's words.

The strategy of the Dajin Army has always been to avoid the strong and the weak, and to avoid the real and attack the weak. Knowing that the enemy's city defense is very strong, but still crashing into it, that is not brave, that is stupid. If the defense of Dongjiabao is really so strong, the Dajin army should make a decisive detour. Otherwise, the Dajin army will be hit headlong in Dongjiabao and bleeding.

The problem is that letting go of Dong Jiabao is equivalent to letting go of Zhang Zhun, and Huang Taiji is really unwilling. The big purpose of his rushing south this time was to come to Zhang Zhun. Now, Zhang Zhun was right in front of him, less than twenty miles away from him. Such a good opportunity, he can't catch the other party, what face does he have?

Azig's idea is theoretically feasible, but Huang Taiji is absolutely not feasible in practice. Judging from the experience of the Dajin army in dealing with the Ming army, once the Ming army decides to hold on, even if you make a fuss outside, the Ming army inside the city will never appear. Huang Taiji has enough reason to believe that Zhang Zhun will also follow such principles. Azig wanted to lure Zhang Zhun out, it was too difficult.

As for Azig's looting plan, it is somewhat feasible. Anyway, if you Zhang Zhun hides in the turtle shell and refuses to come out, I will turn the hinterland of the Ming Kingdom upside down, turning the surrounding places into a white land, so that you have no motivation for development. Your strength is growing, and the strength of Dajin Country is also growing, and everyone will have a chance to continue to confront each other in the future.

It is a pity that the places that the Dajin army was able to loot belonged to the Ming court, not to Zhang Zhun. The current Huang Taiji already knows that Zhang Zhun is a thief and wants to overthrow the Ming court. The Dajin army plundered all the surrounding imperial court districts, and it was the Ming court that suffered the greatest loss, not Zhang Zhun. Azig's plan is a bit similar to scratching the boots, but it's not strong enough!

Haoge was still a little unwilling, and said hesitantly: "Twelfth uncle, do you think Dongjiabao really can't be taken down?" Do you have no confidence in the fighting power of our warriors? ”

Azig pondered for a moment and said slowly: "I have confidence in them, and I also believe that Dongjiabao will be able to take it down in the end." There is no city in the world that cannot be conquered, it depends on how much our Dajin Kingdom is willing to pay. ”

To say such a thing is to agree with Hauge's opinion.

Hauge breathed a sigh of relief, it was not easy to get Azig's approval.

However, the next fatal question immediately haunted him. If you want to catch Zhang Zhun and conquer Dongjiabao, you have to pay the price. The question is, how much can the Dajin Kingdom pay? Eight thousand people have already died during the day, how many more people can the Dajin Army pay? Twenty thousand? Thirty thousand? Or even 50,000 ...... Fifty thousand is absolutely impossible. More than 30,000 will be greatly damaged.

The population of Dajin has never been large, and every human life is very precious. Before each battle, the manager has to carefully weigh what kind of results he can get and how much he needs to pay. If the cost is too great, there is absolutely no way to go to war.

Why is Dajin so keen to cross the Great Wall and head south? It is because the cost of Nanluo is very small, but the results are very large. On the Liaodong front, even if the Ming army was defeated, not much was captured. Carefully calculated, in fact, the gains outweigh the losses. Nanluo is different. The cost of Nanluo is almost negligible, and the people and materials grabbed are simply insane.

Sure enough, when it came to the cost of casualties, the crowd that was slightly agitated just now all calmed down again. That's right, Fu Yuwei's territory is indeed very attractive. But the premise is that you have the strength to get. Well, to put it more coldly, you've got to have that life. Judging from the daytime fighting, it is simply impossible to take Dongjiabao without paying a heavy price. In the face of the crazy counterattack of the Tiger Army, even the bravest warriors of the Dajin Kingdom did not dare to guarantee that they would be able to survive.

The Dajin army was not willing to pay too much price, and the Mongols certainly did not. Especially the two major tribes of Tumut and Harasan to the south. Their territory is far away from Fuyuwei, and there is a Horqin tribe in the middle, even if they get Fuyuwei, they will not be able to effectively rule Fuyuwei. Therefore, this proposal of Huang Taiji is not very stimulating for Azhislan and Hadan Batel.

Attacking fortified positions is already a very difficult task, and if one of them is not done well, a large number of soldiers will be lost. Nomads are not good at attacking fortifications, if they only see the stimulation of Fuyuwei, but do not see the green fangs of Dongjiabao, then the end will definitely be tragic. None of the people present were stupid, and the stakes were naturally clearly distinguished.

"Disperse!"

"Tomorrow wait for the order to attack!"

Huang Taiji waved his hand and let everyone disperse.

It seems that it will definitely not be possible to reach a unified opinion tonight. Instead of forcibly reaching a unified opinion, it is better to find out the details of each person first. Huang Taiji himself also needs to be measured well. For Zhang Zhun's life, what kind of price does Dajin Guo have to pay. This Zhang Zhun is really a precious porcupine!

……

After leaving the camp, Arislan walked a few quick steps, followed Hadan Batel in front, and called in a low voice, "Old Han. ”

Hadanbatel stopped, did not look back, did not speak.

Azhislan followed up from behind and said intentionally or unintentionally, "Old Han, what do you want?" ”

When the Ming Kingdom was strong, almost all of them, the Mongolian nobles, had a Han name to facilitate communication with the Han people. Hadan Battle's Chinese name is Han Ming, and Arislan's Chinese name is Li Hanfeng. Later, the Ming became the enemy of the Mongols, and their Chinese names were gradually no longer used. Now Arislan uses the Chinese name to call Hadan Battle, which naturally has a special meaning.

Hadanbatel said casually: "I didn't think about anything, what else can I think?" ”

Arislan lowered his voice and said, "Old Han, tomorrow, who are you going to send?" ”

Hadan Baatel turned his head to stare at Arislan, and asked instead of answering, "What about you?" ”

Arislan said lightly: "I am going to let Amur and Agudar go up. ”

Hadanbatel said slowly, "Are you sure? ”

Ajislan nodded affirmatively, and said with a solemn expression: "Their request for war is very strong, and they asked me to fight early in the morning, of course I have to meet their request." ”

Hadanbatel frowned and didn't say anything.

Agul and Agudar are two disobedient generals under Arislan. These two guys, who have a close relationship with the Dajin Army, often carry Arislan and Huang Taiji behind their backs. The relationship between the two and Hauge is also very close, and halfway through, Hauge even invited the two of them to drink, but did not invite Arislan. The implication is self-evident. Now, Arislan sent these two people to the front line, and the meaning of this is naturally well understood.

Hadan Batel pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Suhe and Alatan Cang's battle ** is also very strong, and I am ready to let them go up." ”

Arislan smiled knowingly, and said quietly: "Okay! I'm sure Chechen Khan will love it! ”

Su He and Alatan Cang are also the disobedient leaders of Hadan Battle. The two also like to make eye contact with Huang Taiji, and they also have a good relationship with Haoge. Hauge also invited the two to drink, but did not invite Hadan Battle. Now, Hadanbatel understands and sends them to the front, and the purpose is naturally self-evident.

To be precise, the four people mentioned above were the henchmen of their respective leaders when they left the prairie. Otherwise, they would not have had a chance to join the army of Nanlu. It's just that along the way, Huang Taiji knows how to win people's hearts very well, and from time to time he asks Haoge to come forward and envelop the four of them. Huang Taiji was obviously not particularly at ease with both Azhislan and Hadan Batel, and wanted to entrap the four of them, and then set aside Azhislan and Hadan Batel.

As a result, these four people found that there was an opportunity, so they desperately offered their hospitality to Huang Taiji. In some things, they have gone against the original owner. Now, Huang Taiji wants to weaken the strength of the two Mongol tribes, Tumut and Harashen, and wants to kill people with a knife, and they also happen to get rid of the time bomb around them.

Of course, Huang Taiji is a smart person, and when he looks at the troops sent by the two, he knows the thoughts of the two. However, even if Huang Taiji knew, so what? The approach of the two can be described as impeccable. If you ask me to send troops, I will send them obediently. Do you need your Emperor Taiji to designate whoever I send? That's too wide. If Huang Taiji openly interfered, it would arouse the resentment of all the tribes of Mongolia. I believe that Huang Taiji would not do such a stupid thing.

The Mongols and the Manchurians have not yet completely run in, and everyone is still testing each other and still inspecting each other. If the two sides turn the other cheek, the Mongols will not have the ability to fight back at all. Especially now, the Dajin army has been repeatedly attacked, and if the Mongols fight hard, they can still retreat. This time in the south, the number of Mongol cavalry was more than twice that of the Jianyu cavalry, and the cavalry of the three major tribes, each tribe, was more than 10,000 people.

Having said that, if it weren't for the repeated blows of the Dajin Army, the two would not have such thoughts. Between forces, there has always been the law of the jungle. The Dajin army is strong, I have to listen to you. However, your Dajin Army has been weakened, and I have turned my face and left, which is also a very normal thing. Didn't Nurhachi do the same thing back then?

In the era when Li Chengliang and Huwei still existed, Nurhachi and his father were obedient like two dogs. Li Chengliang asked them to go east, but they did not dare to go west. Li Chengliang asked them to hang themselves, but they didn't dare to cut their veins. However, when Li Chengliang died, the two immediately turned their faces. If Li Chengliang doesn't die, Nurhachi dares to say a word? In this world, only the strong have the opportunity to speak! Now that the Dajin Kingdom has weakened, it will be the turn of the Mongols to rise.

"Old Han, Gri Letu!"

When they parted, Arislan said with a smile.

"Lao Li, Ge Ri Letu!"

Hadan Battle responded awe-inspiringly.

In Mongolian, Geriletu means light. This sentence can be understood as a celebration of the victory of tomorrow's offensive, or it can be understood as the darkness is about to pass and the future of the Mongols is about to open a new page. As for how to understand it, only the two of them know.

……

"Geng Zhongming died like this?"

Shang Kexi returned to his tent and stood silently for a while, his mind full of such thoughts. During the meeting just now, he couldn't hear what Huang Taiji said very clearly. He was below, trying to straighten out his thinking and think about his own way out, but in the end he regretted that he had no other way out.

Although he didn't have any good feelings for Geng Zhongming, there were still some contradictions between the two for a while, but after all, Geng Zhongming has been a partner who has worked together for many years, and the relationship between the two is still okay in general. Now that Geng Zhongming is dead, Shang Kexi certainly feels a little sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox. What's more, Geng Zhongming's death made Shang Kexi feel scared.

As a traitor leader, Shang Kexi is very clear about the combat effectiveness of the Ming army. The officers and troops of the imperial court, except for the cavalry of Liaodong, the other troops, in front of the Dajin army, were simply tofu scum. Shang Kexi judged that the Ming Kingdom was definitely not the opponent of the Dajin Kingdom. If you take refuge in the Dajin Kingdom, even if you don't have glory and wealth, your life safety is still guaranteed. Therefore, he finally chose Dajin Kingdom. However, the daytime battle clearly told him that his choice might have been wrong.

After all, the Tiger Army is still the Tiger Army, amazing! When the Dajin Army was about to break the city, it suddenly made a killer move, not only repelling the attack of the Dajin Army, but also biting the Dajin Army, causing the Dajin Army to suffer heavy losses. Such a counterattack, Shang Kexi really never dreamed of it. At that time, the only feeling he had was that it was terrible, terrifying, and incredible.

It is no wonder that during this time, the Tiger Ben Army was able to toss the Dajin Army vigorously and constantly inflict losses on the Dajin Army. Zhang Zhun does have some ability. It's just that Zhang Zhun's ability is a bit bad when it reflects on them as rebels. Kong Youde was surrounded in Dengzhou City, his life and death were uncertain, Geng Zhongming died again, and the so-called Shandong Three Mine Disciples were left alone.

Tomorrow's attack, the task of the Han Army Banner, is absolutely indispensable. There are still 7,000 people left in the Han Army Banner, and tomorrow they will definitely be all pulled onto the battlefield, and not a single one will be left. In the face of the crazy guns of the Tiger Army, only God knows how much they will have left. Even someone as shrewd as Geng Zhongming died under the walls of Dongjiabao, not to mention them.

Regret, Shang Kexi does regret a little. Who would have thought that at the height of the Golden Army, there would be a person named Zhang Zhun? Who would have thought that in the Ming ** team like tofu scum, there would be a tiger army that can fight well? Knowing this, he insisted on it for a longer time in Dongjiang Town, and then took refuge in the Tiger Ben Army. Even if you take refuge in the Tiger Ben Army, you don't have to lose the reputation of a traitor!

"General......

Suddenly, someone probed his brain, but it was several of his heartaches that came down.

"Come in."

Shang Kexi frowned.

Those henchmen hurriedly crept in, their expressions very dark.

"What's the matter?"

Shang Kexi said listlessly.

"Geng Zhongming is gone?"

An officer asked quietly.

"Didn't you see that?"

"He didn't come back, so naturally he didn't."

Shang Kexi said bitterly.

The officers bowed their heads and remained silent.

If you want to say that in the entire battle sequence of the Dajin Army, in the face of the defeat in the battle during the day, who is the most painful person, it must be these traitors. When they took refuge in the Dajin Army, they thought that they could enjoy the glory and wealth by following the Dajin Army, but they didn't expect that a tiger army suddenly appeared, and a Zhang Zhun appeared, which was constantly shattering their dreams. Their glory and wealth feel more and more mysterious.

Geng Zhongming is dead, so tomorrow's battle will definitely be their turn. Thinking of the flames of destruction under the walls of Dongjiabao, they all shuddered. If they were in the midst of the fire, would they have a chance to survive? Unless it is the manifestation of the Buddha, there is no hope at all.

"Do you have any news of Kong Youde?"

Shang Kexi suddenly asked.

"General, we don't know where we heard it, it was said that Dengzhou City had been breached by the Tiger Ben Army, and everyone inside was captured alive, and we don't know if it's true or not......

Someone whispered uncertainly.

"I'm afraid it's true. It is impossible for the Tiger Ben Army to fight on two fronts, and after we go south, they will definitely take the lead in conquering Dengzhou City. Kong Youde and them, most of them are finished. Before, I didn't believe that Dengju City would be conquered. However, the daytime battles ...... The firearms of the Tiger Ben Army are so powerful, it is not difficult to blow the city gate open...... Alas! It's all fate! It's all fate! ”

Shang Kexi let out a long sigh of helplessness.

In fact, the gossip about the capture of Dengzhou City, I don't know when it started, it quietly began to spread. At the beginning, everyone thought it was a rumor released by the Tiger Army, and no one would believe it. However, as time goes on, the credibility grows. However, no one wants to believe that this is true. Because, each of them, still has to maintain a glimmer of hope.

Someone cautiously said, "General, ...... tomorrow."

Shang Kexi said coldly: "Let's have a destiny!" ”

The others had no choice but to remain silent.

At this point, there is no way back for them. If they change their fortunes at this time, the butcher's knife of the Tartar will definitely be raised without hesitation. If they make any changes, they may not see the sun tomorrow. If you want to complain, you can only blame them for choosing this path. Now that you've walked on, there's no chance of turning back.

"Let's go, all of you!"
