Chapter 79 Newcomer (Please follow up!)
...

"The governor is really a man of gods. Not to mention that the Song army will go to Tianshuipu, it is also assumed that the Song army's horse army will disperse across the valley, and the Song army's infantry will crash into our army's ambush circle."

"If my family's chief governor is not a man of gods, An Neng led us to conquer more than [-] counties in six prefectures. I dare to assert that my family's chief governor must be the one who will be the emperor."

"Isn't it all said that the one who is the emperor is Fang Shenggong? Fang Shenggong wears the dragon robe of Rimeng, and the "Tui Bei Tu" also has its name?"

"Fang Shenggong? Pooh! He is also worthy? How can he be compared with my governor? If my governor hadn't defeated the main force of the Song army and sent all the Song troops to Jiangbei, he would have asked the Song army to wipe them out and sent him to the capital for a thousand swords It's dead, how dare he dream of the emperor, lard has covered his heart."

"Uh... elder brother seems to be a little bit resentful towards Fang Shenggong, what's the explanation?"

"As long as he has a sympathetic feeling, he sends troops to help my family's chief governor. Why does my family's chief governor repeatedly take risks with his own body and make a small fortune? Now he is hiding in Shezhou to be happy and happy, and my family's chief governor is the only one who resists Song Jun, you still have to prevent my family from asking him to steal it, this generation of villains has the emperor's life?!"

"As the eldest brother said, he is indeed not worthy to be the emperor."

"Looking at the governor of my family again, Yingmo Ruilue, open-minded and magnanimous, knowing people and doing well, being strict and gracious under the imperial court, and humbly inquiring and accepting. Lao Neng puts his superiors in order of priority, and does not let his relatives or dignitaries interfere with him. He personally led us to successive victories. The Song army feared him like a tiger, and listened to his name and became terrified. This is the real emperor."

"It is rare in the world for the general to use soldiers. He has the courage and strength to surpass others. He is called a hero, no less than Bai Qi and Han Xin."

"Bai Qi and Han Xin are the generals, and the governor is the emperor, they are not the same."

"The governor may not have the heart of an emperor. You can know a thing or two just by observing that the governor has never proclaimed himself emperor or established the Yuan Dynasty."

"I thought it would be wonderful for the governor to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. Wouldn't it be nice if we were all princes and generals in this place!"

"I think that the foundation of Zhao and Song Dynasties has not been destroyed, and if the governor wants to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, it may not be easy."

"The governor has no plans to leave behind, and the soldiers have nothing to do. How can you and I judge it arbitrarily? I just want to say that if the governor ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, I will throw my head and blood to support him."

"I... followed suit."

"I'm Cao Cheng, and I had a very happy conversation with my brother. Didn't I ask my brother's name?"

"Yao Xing, from Xincheng County, Hangzhou."

……

The spoils of this battle are very rich, with nearly [-] shi of grain and grass, all siege equipment, two to three thousand mules and horses, and a large number of soldiers and armor.

However, the biggest gain of this battle is that Li Cun captured more than 2 Song soldiers and more than [-] civilian husbands, including more than a thousand military craftsmen and hundreds of boatmen.

It can be seen that Wang Ting was well prepared this time, even preparing to cross the river.

Yes.

Li Cun has already learned from the captives that the person in charge of the Song army this time is the famous Northern Song general Wang Zhi who led the soldiers and civilians in Taiyuan City to hold on to Taiyuan City for more than 250 days when Taiyuan's aid was exhausted and the army and civilians ran out of food.

Li Cunzhen regretted not being able to get in close contact with Wang Ting.

At the same time, Li Cun couldn't help but feel a little complacent: "Even Wang Teng was defeated by me. It seems that I am a keyboard strategist, and I am a bit real."

"This battle was fought very well, and [-] wiped out nearly [-] of the Song army. This is enough for me, Kong Zhong, to brag about for a while!" Kong Lengzi said to the left and right with a smile.

"What do you have to brag about? Who doesn't know that this battle depends on the commander-in-chief's strategizing. If you rely on you, Confucian fool, our army would have been defeated as early as at the foot of Baiyang Mountain."

Han Bie, who failed to participate in the battle, couldn't help beating Kong Lianzi, and then said to Li Cun: "Governor, next time there is a false attack, leave it to Kong Lianzi, and the future will be unified." When soldiers fight, they will never be like Confucius, who has so many advantages and loses soldiers and generals, and finally has to use thunder to win."

in fact--

This ambush did not go so smoothly.

Yes.

The Huben army had the advantage of ambush, and the horse army had the advantage of fighting the infantry. The key point was that the Song army marched more than 150 miles in two days and one night, and everyone was sleepy and tired.

But even so, the Song Army still caused a lot of damage to the Huben Army, or to be precise, to the Guard Ma Army.

——The horse army that Li Cun has been taking care of carefully, lost more than 300 horses in this battle.

This casualty was something Li Cun could not have imagined in advance, even if Li Cun thought that the Dingli gun platoon was a very strange infantry.

Speaking of it, this cannot be regarded as a mistake by Li Cun.

In fact, long before the start of the battle, Li Cun saw through the binoculars that the Dingli Spearmen were holding a rattan card, one or two spears in their hands, and a hatchet or a spear pinned to their waists. a short knife.

And the spear in the hands of the Dingli gun platooner is very strange:
Some are very long, with a triangular front blade and a petal-shaped tail blade, both of which can stab the enemy;
Some are also very long, the forward blade is nearly rhomboid, and the blade at the tail is in the shape of a round-headed nail, which can be stabbed at both ends;
In addition, the forward blade is in the shape of a round-headed nail, and the tail of the rod has three pointed blades, which are not at the tail end, but are installed beside the tail, which seems to have the function of arrow feathers.

At that time, Li Cun, who always thought that there were no javelin soldiers in this era, did not realize at all that these three spears were actually javelins.

As a result, as soon as the guard horse army charged, they were hit head-on by the javelins of the Dingli gun platooners.

Moreover, all the Dingli gun platoon players fought bravely. After the cavalry rushed over, they cut off the horse's legs as soon as they got short. , often the cooperation of two Ding Li gun platoon players can kill a guard horse army who is not professional enough.

Fortunately, the Dingli gun platoon didn't have many spears in their hands, and the guard horse army didn't rush too densely. The key is that the guard horse army caught them by surprise.

Otherwise, it's really hard to say who will win and who will lose when the personal guard Ma Jun faces the Dingli gun platoon player.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Cun hurriedly ordered the former guards to use Hongtianlei, which forced the Dingli gun platooners who were stunned by Hongtianlei to surrender together with the other Song troops.

Afterwards, Li Cun found out that the Dingli gun platooners did not belong to the Western Army or the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army, but belonged to the Jiangnan Forbidden Army. a worthy soldier.

After disarming all Song troops, including the nearly [-] surviving Ding Li gun platooners, Li Cun sent the former guards to escort the prisoners and the civilian husbands to send the captured Huben army back to Yangzhou City.

As for Li Cun, he personally led the guard Ma Jun to find another place to ambush Song Jun for a while.

Seeing that Wang Ting never came to rescue, Li Cun felt a little regretful, but also a little lucky.

——To be honest, after seeing the fighting power of Dingli gun platooners, Li Cunzhen was a little afraid of the more famous Western Army, even though they had been running non-stop for two days and one night, they had to run so far non-stop to follow him fighting.

As a result, Wang Zhi gave Li Cun a strong man to cut off his wrist, directly avoiding a bloody battle between the two sides.

While marching towards Yangzhou under the shining starlight, Li Cun looked back to the north and thought, "After this battle, we should be able to win the time to transfer Yangzhou's huge money, food and other materials to Jiangnan..."
