At the end of Ming Dynasty: I, Sun Kewang!Desperate comeback!
Chapter 224 The struggle of Class 5 people!
In the next three days, small groups of cavalry continued to come out of the camp to harass the Qing army.
In the entanglement, both sides killed each other, but gradually Donnie noticed something unusual!
"No! Thief Sun has been provoking for days. He clearly wants to attract our army's attention and hold us back!" Donnie raised his binoculars.
Looking at the provocative Jia Qianjun ahead, I was shocked.
"Your Majesty, what exactly does Sun Thief intend to do with this move?" Luo Keduo, Prince of Ping County, asked quickly.
"I'm afraid the thieves from Changde have already gone south!" Doni took a long breath and said.
"What!" The generals of the Qing army were shocked when they heard this.
In the past, even if Sun Kewang and Li Laiheng joined forces, they would not be afraid.
Because in the eyes of the Eight Banners generals, neither the Shun Army nor the Western Army were their opponents.
But now, the two battles with Sun Kewang have been extremely unfavorable.
There are more than [-] Western thieves in the Zijiang area, and if we add tens of thousands of obedient thieves.
With such troops and horses, the two families are attacking from the front and back, I am afraid that our main force of the Qing Dynasty will be very disadvantaged!
"Your Majesty, our army has been reorganized and can go north at any time. How about we break out of camp tonight and go north overnight!"
"If the traitors are marching south regardless of life and death, and the two armies happen to encounter each other, my army of [-] men will definitely be able to defeat them in one battle!" Bashan said with cupped hands.
"Yes! If we can kill the traitors first, our army can march north to Changde and forcefully cross the Yangtze River without any resistance!"
"It is impossible to say that Jingzhou is still in the hands of the imperial court. After our army takes Changde, it can open up communication with the imperial court. Using Jingzhou and Changde as bases, we can compete with Sun Kewang for Hunan!" Belledulan also said.
If tens of thousands of thieves huddled in the cities around Changde, then the Qing army would indeed be unable to eat them.
After all, Dhoni cannot afford to waste time or casualties.
But if the main force of the Shun army happens to move south, and Doni goes north to defeat it in one fell swoop, then it will be a matter of course for the Changde area to be completely captured.
Once Changde is captured and a foothold is established, then go north to contact or capture Jingzhou.
Although the Yangtze River waterway is still cut off by Yuezhou under Sun Kewang's control.
However, Dhoni, who fought in such a situation, placed his main force in Jingzhou and Changde. He could also go from Wuchang to the Han River and then take the land route to obtain supplies.
In any case, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses will not run out of food.
Such a prospect is quite promising.
"Okay! Our army has been well prepared in the past three days. We will quickly move north tonight. If the traitors go south, we will destroy them in one battle. If they are still huddled in Changde, our army will collect food and pay in the Changde area and forcefully cross the Yangtze River. !”
Doni gave an order and all the Eight Banners generals took orders one after another.
"Tan Yi, Tan Hong!" Donnie shouted.
"The general is here." The two green camp generals who had just shaved their heads quickly handed over their hands.
"Your soldiers and horses have not been damaged in the battle, and their morale is strong. After tonight, you two will stay at the camp and spread many flags! You must confuse Sun Kewang and buy time for me to defeat the traitors!"
"Cover." Tan Yi and Tan Hong quickly accepted the order and directly greeted all of Duny's female family members in their hearts.
"Zero!" Donnie spoke again.
"The end will be here." Zhuo Luo handed over his hand.
"You lead three thousand Manchu and Mongolian cavalry to stay in the camp and take charge of the overall situation. You must confuse Sun Kewang and buy time for my [-]-strong army!"
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the general will fulfill his mission!" Zhuo Luo said with his hands in hand.
"Our army's dry food has been prepared secretly. After nightfall, all ministries will evacuate one by one in accordance with the order, and there must be no chaos."
"Yes!" Dozens of Manchu and Mongolian generals took the order one after another.
In the evening of that day, the Qing army's red-coated artillery opened fire and continuously bombarded the harassing cavalry in front of the army.
At the same time, a large number of Manchu and Mongolian cavalry came out of the camp, as if they were going to fight Sun Kewang desperately.
The cavalrymen of the Qianqian Army also retreated as soon as they saw the situation was good and evacuated immediately.
"What did the Tatars do? I won't be bothered by this, right?"
As the sun set, in front of the camp, Zhang Sheng looked at the vast formation of the Qing army and frowned.
"My lord, since the king has ordered us to harass you, I will stop it when we see the situation is good. We must not ruin the king's plan." Guo Youming said quickly.
Zhang Sheng has always been bold. With Duni's formation like this, if Zhang Sheng's head gets hot and he directly leads his troops to fight against the Qing cavalry, the consequences will be disastrous!
"Hmph! I'm not that stupid. If I lead Xiao Qizhen directly into the Tatar formation, I'm afraid it will be very bad."
Zhang Sheng waved his hand, and all the cavalrymen in Xiaoqi Town returned to camp.
That night, other small and medium-sized artillery pieces of the Qing army began to move, and other supplies also began to be transferred.
Every Qing soldier had a pocket on his body, filled with enough dry food to last for a long time.
"Tatars, they are preparing to run away!" In the camp, a Qing army officer was suddenly shocked.
"Shh! Old Zhao, you don't want your life!" Another officer quickly covered his mouth.
"Old Zhang, what are you afraid of! Donnie has nothing to worry about now!"
"It's better, let's fight to the death!" The Qing army officer who had spoken earlier gritted his teeth.
One of these two officers was named Zhao Decai and the other was named Zhang Guangen.
These two people may not be very famous, but Zhao Decai's brother Zhao Desheng is Bai Wenxuan's trusted general.
In another time and space, it was Zhao Desheng who shouted the slogan "It's better to leave Yunnan than to be a Burmese ghost."
Only Bai Wenxuan would be kidnapped by his subordinates and go north to surrender to the Qing Dynasty.
Zhang Guangen's brother Zhang Guangcui is also relatively famous. Zhang Guangcui is one of the thirteen towns under He Tengjiao.
After the fall of Hunan, he was recruited by Sun Kewang, and later defeated by Xu Yong in Chenzhou. After the Battle of Jiaoshui, he was demoted for being a party ally.
After the fall of Kunming, unlike other generals who returned to Qin, Zhang Guangcui was under Bai Wenxuan's command.
Since Bai Wenxuan's prestige was very high, and the supply of food and salary of the Bai tribe was second only to that of the Jin vassal, Zhang Guangcui had nothing to do.
Instead, he chose to follow Bai Wenxuan and put an end to Li Dingguo and Yongli.
From Chuxiong to Yongchang, Bai Wenxuan's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were defeated, leaving only more than [-] remnants.
Zhao Desheng followed Bai Wenxuan into the tropical rain forest, and Zhang Guangcui died in the battle.
But their younger brother was dispersed by the Qing army. In desperation, he accepted Doni's recruitment and became a member of the Qing army!
"Fight to the death! Old Zhao, you don't want your life! We only have a few hundred men under our command, how can we fight to the death with Donnie!" Zhang Guangen was shocked.
"What! Your brother was killed by Donnie, don't you even dare to take revenge!" Zhao Decai sneered.
Zhang Guangen's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and his eyes turned red.
He and his brother Zhang Guangcui have been fighting together for so many years. From Henan, Sichuan, Huguang, Guangxi to Yunnan and Guizhou, I don't know how much the two brothers have experienced together.
As a result, his own brother died for the imperial court in western Yunnan. Not only did he not dare to avenge his brother, but he even shaved his head and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty in order to survive!
People's hearts are made of flesh, and this matter has always been a knot in Zhang Guangen's mind.
"Old Zhang, haven't you done enough for this Tatar!" Zhao Decai gritted his teeth and said: "Doni slaughtered the Yunnan people wantonly. Our subordinates are all Yunnanese and already hate him to the core!"
"Now that the king has cut off his escape route, it would be unfavorable for him to attack the king with his [-] troops. If he is trapped to the west of Zijiang, he will be trapped and starve to death sooner or later!"
"Now that Doni is distributing dry food to us people, he is obviously preparing to escape!" "What kind of life did our brothers live in the Western Camp before? Why do we need to work as cattle and horses for the Tatars now!" Zhao Decai sneered:
"In the past, my brother was a direct descendant of King Gongchang, and King Gongchang was the favorite of the king and the king of Jin. I, Zhao Decai, could speak in front of King Gongchang, even the king of the country and the king of Jin. !”
"And your brother is also a general of the country's leader. We two brothers used to have a comfortable life!"
"Now that I have shaved my head, not only will we be used as cattle and horses for the Tatars, but even those traitors in the Green Camp can manipulate us!"
"You, Zhang Guangen, have never thought about living this life, but I, Zhao Decai, don't want to live it!"
The composition of Doni's hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses was complex, generally similar to the division of Qin and Jin soldiers before Li Dingguo.
The Manchu Eight Banners were naturally Jin soldiers, at the top of the food chain.
The Eight Banners of Mongolia are Bai Wenxuan. Although they are not truly our own people, they can still be considered our own people.
The Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty are people like Qi Sansheng and Ma Bao. Although they are not considered their own people, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties may not be completely reassured, but they can still be used.
The green battalion soldiers are Qin soldiers who are expected to be attached to the party such as Di Sanpin. They can't be used with confidence unless they are suppressed by the Eight Banners soldiers.
The defeated Nanming troops who were recruited were the Jiaqian army. These people were suppressed by the Eight Banners soldiers, and the Manchus were afraid of accidents.
Zhao Decai and Zhang Guangen used to be second-class people, both under Bai Wenxuan's command.
Even if Zhang Guangen's brother is a highly respected member of the party, he can still be regarded as a third-class person under Bai Wenxuan.
But now, after being demoted to the Qing Dynasty, it has directly become the fifth level.
Mongolians are only divided into four classes!
This damn thing has a lower status than Green Camp. Who can bear this?
If the Qing army had always been unstoppable and strong, it would have been enough to survive, and it would have passed.
But now that Donnie is preparing to run away, how could Zhao Decai not have thoughts in his heart?
Zhang Guangen was also moved when he heard this. It seemed that defecting to Sun Kewang was a good choice now.
"Old Zhang, we are all the former subordinates of the king. Now Donnie is like a rabbit's tail that cannot grow long, and a grasshopper after autumn cannot jump around for a few days!"
"What if we take advantage of the dark night to go to the king and tell him the truth about Duny?"
"After that, won't our brother be able to say a few words in front of the king again!" Zhao Decai said with a smile.
"This..." Zhang Guangen was a little moved.
If he could return to Sun Kewang's command, how could he want to stay in the Qing army?
"Lao Zhang, tell me whether you want to do it or not!" Zhao Decai urged.
"Old Zhao, we are surrounded by hundreds of thousands of Qing troops. If something happens, how can we escape?" Zhang Guangen said worriedly.
"Old Zhang, this place is only a few dozen miles away from the main camp of the country. Our brothers are galloping on horseback and will arrive in a blink of an eye. It is dark now. Let's lead people into the night. How can the Tatars find us so easily? !" Zhao Decai persuaded.
Zhang Guangen showed hesitation on his face and did not answer for a long time.
With a clang, a saber was placed on Zhang Guangen's neck.
"Old Zhao! What are you doing!" Zhang Guangen was startled.
"Are you going to follow me or not? If you don't, don't blame me, Zhao Decai, for being ungrateful and doing it to you first!" Zhao Decai changed his face at every turn and said viciously.
"Okay! I'll do it with you!" Zhang Guangen said quickly.
In the current situation, Zhao Decai has made up his mind, acting like he doesn't dare to do it to you or not.
Although Zhang Guangen surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he and Donnie were just a casual marriage, not to mention that he had a brother-killing revenge!
Do you want him to be loyal to our Qing Dynasty? Zhang Guangen really couldn't do it.
In this case, we can only follow Zhao Decai.
"Okay! These are brothers." Zhao Decai was overjoyed when he heard this, but he still did not put down the knife in his hand.
This rebellion or anything else, if you are not careful, you will die without a burial place. Zhao Decai also understands this.
"Li Wencai, Liu Sanbao!" In the darkness of the night, Zhao Decai shouted and called for his own soldiers.
Soon, Li Wencai and Liu Sanbao pressed Zhang Guangen away with serious expressions on their faces.
Zhao Decai got on his horse, and several cronies quickly demolished a fence.
Since the Qing army's camp did not take time and effort to build, there was no wooden wall like the one in Sun Kewang's camp.
This made it easier for Zhao Decai and the others to escape.
Hundreds of Qing troops quickly gathered and torches were lit.
"Set fire, brothers, surrender to the king!" Zhao Decai gave the order.
A raging fire broke out in the camp.
"The enemy is coming! The enemy is coming!"
In an instant, deafening shouts rang out, shattering the calm of the Qing army camp.
The fire and shouts shocked a large number of Qing soldiers.
"Let's go!" Zhao Decai gave the order, shouting with hundreds of soldiers and horses, setting fire to it, and quickly rushed out of the camp.
"Who are you!" A group of Qing cavalry on guard duty on the periphery ran into Zhao Decai and asked quickly.
With a whoosh, Zhao Decai bent his bow and arrow, and killed the Qing army commander with one arrow.
He took his troops and horses and fled into the thick night.
"What! Sun Kewang is here!" Donnie was horrified.
He quickly left the tent and began to inspect the Qing army's camp with his soldiers.
As a result, there were no enemy troops in the Qing army's camp.
"My lord, something bad has happened! Zhao Decai and Zhang Guangen took the Western bandits under their command and escaped!" Hu Maozhen, the general of the Green Battalion, reported quickly.
"Then what are you waiting for? Send someone to chase him quickly!" Donnie said quickly in shock.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates have sent people to chase him."
"But it's getting late, just in case!" Hu Maozhen said with a crying face.
Donnie's eyes darkened when he heard this, and he almost fell down.
Only the Eight Banners generals and a few senior Green Camp officials knew about the decision to go north.
Although the Qing army had been preparing secretly, the middle and lower-level officers and soldiers were unaware of it.
But since the retreat was imminent, the soldiers carried more food just in case.
That’s why dry food will be distributed tonight.
Na Zeng thought something would go wrong at this juncture, if Zhao Decai and Wang Guangen managed to escape.
Sun Kewang will definitely know about his evacuation tonight.
As a result, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave tonight.
Otherwise, if he evacuates in front, Sun Kewang will chase him from behind, and the army of [-] people may collapse in the vast darkness! (End of chapter)
