Chapter 452: Different Counties in Other Countries (Continued 2)
However, in Suzhou, as the surrounds of the Wo River on the Huai River, the soldiers of the Tianping Army, who were welcomed by Cao Quanshi as the leader, were empty camps and few people.
"Pinglu, where are the soldiers and horses in the road? Where are the commanders of the Jie Dynasty? Why are you the only ones...?"
Looking at the thousands of soldiers who were obviously old, weak, sick and disabled from the military camp, as well as those civilians with disheveled heads and dirty faces and clothes, Cao Quanshi only felt that the sky had collapsed.
He immediately sent people to search for seven camps in a row, and then found a drunk left-behind official in a corner.
"Cao Jie is one step late. The Taining army of Qi's governor and the thieves fought for several days, and each had their own victory or defeat... The Pinglu army of Qingzhou, the Invasion Army of Qizhou, the Xuanwu army of Bianzhou, and the Yicheng army of Huazhou came to help one after another;"
After the other party was awakened, he quickly knelt on the ground and responded.
"After the five-way attack, the thief was very depressed. He retreated for more than ten miles and did not dare to fight again. He established a camp joint camp for more than ten miles and was detained for more than ten miles... However... However."
"However, what's wrong..."
The vanguard, horse envoy and the capital, Cao Xiang, couldn't help but step forward and press the other party's arm and asked repeatedly.
"Just the day before yesterday, there was a sudden emergency report. Tianxiong Army (Weibo Jiedushi) and the German Army (Hengji Jiedushi) sent troops across the river, claiming to use the road to Qing and Yan to suppress the thieves for the court;"
The man was frightened and said:
"So, the commander of You'an (Shiru) led the Qingzhou army to set off the camp overnight... Then, the Qi commander led his troops to retreat due to the uproar under his command. The remaining four towns fought to be the leader and each could not subdue each other, so they returned to their own towns... Only now, there are only some retreating Sizhou army troops, who have not yet escaped."
"An Shiru, Zike made this guy really hurt us... Father and commander, we can't stay here anymore. We have to return to Yunzhou. If the two thieves in Hebei want to advance eastward..."
Cao Xiang immediately shouted angrily, and then said to Cao Quanshi.
At the same time, the thief on the opposite side of the river started to move, obviously feeling the movements of the government army, and a conditioned reflex attack came.
"Don't stop, don't enter the camp. We just let it go and attack the thief army from the side... Dalang, you can lead the generals to be the vanguard."
Cao Quanyue immediately said to his eldest son Cao Xiang.
.........
A few miles away from the other side of the river, among the main formation of the rebel army that had just moved over, a dusty general half-kneeled on the ground and bowed:
"Report to King Huang, the government troops on the other side seem to be ambushing,"
"The three formations of the front army that crossed the river were defeated and dispersed..."
"You can see clearly...what is it the banner of which crew?"
The deputy manager Shang Rang, who was beside him, asked impatiently and repeatedly impatiently.
"But it is the Cao flag of the Tianping Army..."
The man quickly responded.
"It's that old man Cao. This is really good. The old enemies and old enemies of the past have been sent to them."
Shang Rang He screamed.
"But what if the former army was defeated..."
Then there was a general who said that the governor Gai Hongluo was a little worried.
"It's okay. Now that our army is officially strong and powerful, so what if we defeat him a few formations of troops? In addition to the headquarters of the military office, I still have five armies and seven wings, and more than a dozen formations of troops and nearly 200,000, so it's good enough for him to kill."
Huang Chao said with a smile instead of anger.
"Since the other party keeps his word and lets the officials in several towns retreat without fighting, just a mere balance army, what else can he do to overturn the world? Let the newly recruited troops and the submissive Tumen, the garrison and others come forward and set up a formation to fight."
"Old Shang, Mr. Gai, you are each in charge of our own team, responsible for the rear of the palace and the squadron. I will send out the front army and horse team of our team to be responsible for restraining and supporting. Why do we have revenge and revenge now? Please do not let this old thief Cao escape..."
You know, since he has captured Jiangdong and Huainan, his troops under the command of the sky are now replaced by bird guns and cannons, and he has become more and more skilled in the army and food, and his plastic surgery has become prosperous;
Not to mention other things, the food and supplies used by the army alone are enough to support the cost of several years; not to mention the food and fodder that the leaders of the rebel army intercepted and collected from their own hands.
Therefore, after crossing the Huai River, there was no need to plunder all the way, and maintain a fairly good military discipline. Sometimes it would even distribute some money to the scholars and the people, and just recruit and engage young and middle-aged men to expand their army on the spot. Therefore, for a while, "poor and suffering people" and "many followers."
However, he couldn't help but think of the cheap son-in-law, Zhou Monk who claimed to be the Taiping Army; it can be said that the rebel army can have the current situation, which has a great relationship and influence. At least many of the systems, strategies and regulations of the General's Mansion are derived from him.
Unfortunately, things in the world are still going to part ways. Just like during the Qizhou Incident, Wang Xianzhi, the general who was determined to attract peace, had differences with him on the way to the rebel army. If not, with his subordinates as a helper, he would be able to avoid many worries about the supply.
Despite this, after he decided to unify his mind and lead his troops north, he still did not send anyone to take the initiative to repair or bridge anything with him; because he seemed to see himself, the shadow and trace of himself who was once younger;
You know, when he was divided into troops under Wang Xianzhi, there were only 6,000 people. He was even the leader of the rebel army who had gone out several other ways, such as Liu Yanzhang, who claimed to be the governor of Jiangzhou, claimed to have 20,000 people on land and land.
But now he has tens of thousands of people and occupying many cities inside and outside the ridge, which makes one strong force that has to be afraid and guarded against. Although he has always gained continuous benefits from the other party, Huang Chao does not want to be easily controlled by others.
This time I went north, it was not a meaning to get rid of its influence and infiltration; although they were all under the banner of the rebel army, the interests of whoever is the leader and whoever is the second, are not to be wanted or compromised at all.
......
In Pingxiang County, adjacent to Tanzhou, Yuanzhou, outside Taipingtun surrounds in Luxi Township, groups of vicious and vicious people holding knives and guns were also looking at the wooden doors that gradually exposed many broken holes after being cut by axes.
As their leader, more than a dozen gentry who were relatively decent and well-protected, powerful people also gritted their teeth and said one after another.
"You don't know what those who escaped in eat, so thick that they won't even get a sticky meal."
"I just have to work hard, and there are two big squids and a big salt and vegetable bulb for each meal."
"It is said that the villages built by these thieves are all very rich and very rich."
"Everyone has to eat three people a day. Every meal is dried food that is eaten with rice and wheat in a famous way, and it is served with big pot of vegetables and boiled agricultural sauce soup..."
"Every family raises pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks, and rabbits and dogs..."
"Every night, I have to gather in the ancestral hall where the lanterns are lit to listen to lectures and learn calligraphy."
"When everyone is busy at night, everyone still has chicken eggs and wine to eat..."
"It's unreasonable. These poor knives and sticks and mud legs can be more useful than those of the men."
"Well, rest assured. After breaking the circumference and killing these poor sticks, wouldn't you just eat and sleeping with the ones? Why would you come back for a good life of your own...?"
"If it weren't for those peaceful thieves, why would we lose our family business and hide in the mountains and join the local barbarians, mountain people and thieves... This time we finally found them all with pride."
But behind the soil encirclement between a wall, Deng Geda, who was squatting behind the wooden fence holding a knife for cutting rice, was restless and looked at the barbarian woman who was holding a half-big piglet from time to time.
Although she was brought back by a village that was confiscated and robbed, and even said that Chinese was not good, she was the whole place of his life now. Because she was not only hard-working and hardworking, she could do anything to plow the fields, harvest rice, feed pigs and raise chickens, but also pregnant with him and had the hope of passing on the family line in the future.
I still remember the first time she saw the brown rice distributed by the workplace in the village. She held it and cried like a child, and muttered to him constantly. To be honest, he tasted the first time in the collective workplace, and when he didn't have any taste of rice, he was better than her, but there was nowhere to go.
Immediately, the big wet particles leaked, and tears flowed and burst into tears; because he remembered the family he once had, his parents who only wanted to taste rice before he was starved to death, and his younger brothers and sisters who gradually lost their breath in his arms, and their hands and feet were as thin as firewood rods.
Then the little family formed by the two of them slowly bought more items in this language-impaired gesture, in the long night of mutual comfort, raised piglets, chickens and ducks, and had more hope after always being half full.
At this time, the firewood door that had been cut with holes and was finally unbearable to bear it; the thieves who had been outside the encirclement for most of the day finally appeared in the encirclement with the smoke and dust, and there were even some familiar faces in the past.
But at this moment, the villagers who were usually kind and approached were as if they were possessed by evil spirits, filled with resentment, hatred, and disgust, which made the description distorted and ferocious.
But they had just taken a few steps and then screamed in surprise and rolled into a ball, but the ground was already covered with sharp and fine bamboo sticks. At this time, Xu Dumu, who was responsible for training everyone in the village, also stood up and roared and slashed at the struggling thieves all over the ground.
"If you are a man, follow me..."
However, before he could run a few steps, Deng Geda suddenly became weak and knelt on the ground. No matter how those who rushed to rush around him could not stand up, it seemed that his courage suddenly leaked from the body...
Even if he is usually influenced by the truth, he can only watch the men in the village fight with the thieves in a mess, fighting into pieces, screaming and roaring. He can only kneel on the ground without competing, making a meaningless roar.
At this time, he suddenly heard a familiar scream, but his barbarian wife was snatching the piglet's legs and feet with a thief climbing the wall. This was the flesh she had been fed since she was a child, and she also named "Hua Luoluo", so even if the other party intimidated and scolded, she refused to let go.
Then the person in ragged clothes was put on his stomach and curled up like a shrimp, but he still caught the piglet's hind legs in his hand and was dragged to the ground. At this moment, Deng Geda's head was bloody and his eyes turned red. This was his last hope after his whole family died.
In an instant, he jumped up, knocking the thief to the ground like a gust of wind, and rolling hard into a ball. When Deng Geda got up again in the woman's panic scream, a knife had been inserted into the other party's neck, and blood splattered like a spring.
Then, as the woman's gestures, more heads were exposed on the circumference; at this moment, Deng Geda seemed to have lost some fatigue, and grabbed a bamboo stick with his hands and pointed it at one in front of him and poked it.
After a while, he looked at the many bodies and wounded people outside the surrounding area, and the leader Xu Dumu led people to chase and chop down all kinds of sparse figures that fled in a hurry; Deng Geda, who was covered in blood and mud, couldn't help but hugging the woman and cried.
However, before they could be glad, they saw Xu Dumu and his group who were busy retreating in front of them, and a large group of thieves rushed over from behind. They were like a stream full of blooming, emerging from the gaps between valleys, stones and trees, which was so numerous that it was a little scary.
Then when Deng Geda and the others were in a hurry to use various objects to re-plug the broken door, they were stopped by Xu Dumu:
"Don't panic, listen carefully...but the whistle of our army..."
Then, the Dings and Braves in the village noticed that behind the noises of the thieves running over, there was a harsh whistle that had been heard before but was even more neat; the mountains and fields were as beautiful and pleasant as the streams flew away.
There were also scattered dull roars mixed in between, and then a little trace of fireworks rose up. At this moment, Deng Geda and the others felt that something hot was surging out in their eyes.
Listening to the numbers of various formations and subsequent executions as they were heard along the way, Zhou Huaian was already a little numb; but what surprised him a little.
The firearms that were not available in Huainan and Jiangdong were able to show their power in the fight against rebellion and suppress the commotion here; although it was a bit of a slight slutty-girl-killer.
The reason is also very simple. When a mixed-up cleaning force equipped with corresponding fire-dropping teams and grenadiers arrives at the target after a long journey, you only need to pluck up your remaining energy to set up a firearm and blast the enemy.
There are basically no enemy culprits, and they are not frightened and chaotic. Then it is particularly easy to kill them in a small team. Even if the rioters are occupied by levels and fortifications, and if the building wants to resist stubbornly, they will be burned and expelled by burning objects and poisonous smoke balls that are put into burning.
