I have a cornucopia

Chapter 54 Dark Blood Age

"Commander Yang, we can't save much!"

On the battlefield during the charge, Bai Guangen, the personal officer, rushed to Yang Feng's side with awe.

Awe indeed!

At this moment, he and the other soldiers were extremely grateful that they had made the right choice. The legends about Yang Feng they knew before were just legends, but now they finally know that they are really not legends...

This is a legendary enemy of ten thousand people.

This is Xiang Yu, an invincible general like Li Cunxiao.

but……

What's the use of an invincible general?

This was a massacre of hundreds of thousands.

Within a dozen or even dozens of miles around Dezhou City, there were groups of Jianlu soldiers galloping around. They trampled over the hundreds of thousands of unarmed people, including the old, weak, women and children, and killed them with arrows. They picked up the children with spears and chopped off the heads of women with knives. Not to mention Yang Feng alone, even those of them who left the city could not change the killing, not to mention that there were elite Jianlu troops there who had already begun to form an attack.

"You can be saved even if you can't!"

Yang Feng threw away a Qing soldier with Tie Lao in his hand.

The woman who was almost trampled to death by the latter quickly got up, hugged the child and ran towards the city.

"Mr. Yang, human life is not valuable these days. The younger ones are from Shaanxi. Women and children are starving to death everywhere. Thousands of them can be found in a ditch in northern Shaanxi. Not to mention northern Shaanxi, even the capital is the same. People are starving to death." , those who died of the plague, those who were killed by the captives, and the bandits, the entire north is littered with corpses, and you can find bones all over the ground in any village. The younger ones, the whole family starved to death, and then they followed the Huntian Monkeys to survive. The number of dead people I have seen in these years is more than There are many living people, and you are a living Bodhisattva, but this is the way the world is.

Living Bodhisattvas are useless. "

the officer said.

Then he shot an arrow out of his hand, and a Qing soldier who was escaping fell off his horse.

Yang Feng stopped.

He looked at the seemingly endless killings with some helplessness.

In fact, he was lucky last time. He happened to catch up with a blizzard. In addition, various ministries besieged the Qing army. It can be said that there were sufficient troops and enough people to disrupt the Qing army. Even if the purpose of these people was not to prevent the killing, as long as they When they appeared in the sight of the Qing army, the latter did not bother to kill them. Moreover, the vision was severely limited in the blizzard. As long as they ran a hundred meters away, the Qing army would basically be unable to find anyone. This was also the reason why the unlucky Fei Yangwu bumped into Yu Qi. This guy led his subordinates into a reed swamp in a confused manner. As a result, he couldn't see far in the heavy snow. In the end, he took more than a dozen people and got separated from the main force of his subordinates. When he was looking for them, he mistakenly thought that Yu Qi and others were his subordinates. Denglai tycoons like Yu Qi did not smuggle to the mouth of the Yalu River. Of course, some of their subordinates understood what they were saying. After hearing this, they immediately responded in the same language, and then Fei Yangwu rushed over without hesitation.

It can be said that being able to save most of the people last time was largely due to good luck.

But not now.

He only has a few thousand soldiers, and most of them are infantry fighting against the Qing army.

There were only a few hundred people who actually followed him to kill.

"Mr. Yang, this is how it is these days. Tens of thousands of people dying is nothing. In any county in the north, the number of people who starve to death in a year will not be less than this. If we try again, we will be surrounded."

The officer said quickly.

"There are too many dead, and the living are precious. There are so many dead, and we cannot let more die!"

Yang Feng said.

Then he rushed forward.

The soldiers looked at the officers.

A group of people who had just escaped were running around them in confusion.

"Damn it, I have never done any good deeds in my life, and I have committed murder and arson. Let's be a good person today! The whole family has long been starved to death. It would be nice to go to the reunion earlier."

The officer sighed and said.

After saying that, he followed Yang Feng and rushed forward.

The soldiers also moved forward silently. They all followed Bai Guangen and surrendered from the rogue bandits. It can be said that their hearts have been tempered by countless deaths.

but……

They are equally adamant about their own mortality.

They did not notice that in the southern sky, a signal rocket exploded...

On Texas City.

"Reinforcements, reinforcements, are the Knights of Confucius and Mencius!"

Cheng Xianzhen danced excitedly as she looked at the thousands of troops coming from the white wall like a wall.

Of course, the Knights of Confucius and Mencius came, but there was also the Shandong General Army Headquarters led by Yang Daxun. In fact, there was also the Li Fuming Department who volunteered. As for the remaining five general soldiers, they followed the Governor of Jiliao Zhao Guangbian and continued to pursue Abatai. . But in fact, it is more accurate to say that it is to follow, to ensure that the latter will not attack Cangzhou, Tianjin and other places. At this time, Chongzhen felt that he was capable again because of a series of great victories, and ordered Fan Zhiwan and Zhao Guangbian to annihilate all the captives in the pass. . Even Zhou Yanru, the chief minister of the cabinet, asked himself to supervise the encirclement and suppression campaign, so he personally went to Tongzhou and commanded the elite troops of the Beijing camp to prepare for the attack in Tianjin, and then together with the general soldiers encircled Abatai.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Yang Feng. In fact, he doesn't know this now, and he doesn't even know that reinforcements have arrived.

He rushed too far, already more than twenty miles into the battlefield.

Canal bank.

Yang Feng on the river embankment looked at the shivering people among the snow-covered reeds below.

"Yang Shengyuan."

The officer pointed south.

Yang Feng looked at the large number of Qing troops rushing towards them.

Little did he know that these were being withdrawn because of the arrival of reinforcements.

They mainly charged along the way. When they saw the massacre of the Qing army, they rushed over directly, but there was not much fighting. After all, Yang Feng was enough alone. His two irons were swung open. Anyone who was not crazy would know how to hurry up. Avoid its sharp edges. And the soldiers behind him took the opportunity to disrupt the Qing army and gave the people a chance to escape. As for whether they could escape, they couldn't control that much. Because of this, their attack speed was very fast, directly cutting through the battlefield, and then reaching the rear of the Qing army. There were no Qing troops moving forward. The dozens of dead bodies of the Qing army not far away from them were those who were originally chasing them. of these common people.

"Send them to the other side."

Yang Feng said.

The officer didn't waste any words, and immediately led more than five hundred cavalry to drive away the common people, who numbered two to three thousand people. The men had actually shaved their heads. They took the women and children very wisely and set foot on the frozen road. canal. The cavalry were guarding the back. After all, it was rare to be a good person. You must know that although Bai Guangen's subordinates could not be said to be at the bottom in terms of military discipline among the official army in the late Ming Dynasty, they were not much better than others. This was actually the case at this time, including those who were from the regular Ming army and who were considered rogues who surrendered. The last time Jianlu slaughtered Jinan and then retreated north to Jizhou to go out of the fortress, he was intercepted by Zu Dashou's tribe. The latter reported the merit and beheaded one. There are more than a thousand levels, and the final check is that they are all people who had their heads shaved after being taken captive.

Of course, the court would not go into details. After all, everyone also needed to comfort Chongzhen and at least let him see that the army also killed many prisoners, otherwise it would be too shameful.

So it's really worse than bad.

The generals are like this, and the civil servants are not too generous. Just digging the Yellow River is enough.

And they all seem to like digging in the Yellow River.

For example, Hou Fangyu later gave the Qing army a plan to dig out the Yellow River to flood the Yuyuan Army to resist the Qing Dynasty.

Yang Feng looked at the people running across the canal in chaos, while the cavalry quickly formed a formation on the opposite river embankment, and then took out their bows and arrows. Because the river embankment was high enough and the ice below was open enough, if the Qing army had to rush In the past, you would have been shot by these guys like rabbits on the ice if you were massacred. These are the real ones crawling out of the dead, and they basically represent the strongest combat effectiveness of the Ming Army at present. Not to mention the Eight Banners Han Army, they are not weak even against the Eight Banners Manchurian Baya Lahu soldiers. In fact, Bai Guangen was able to be reused because of his background as a rogue, and even Sun Chuanting reused him because he and his men were really good at fighting, and many Qing generals died in their hands.

"It's a pity that the speaker is out of power."

Yang Feng looked at the surging Qing army and said with some regret.

These Qing troops were all wearing Zhenglan Banner armor, but something special was that among them there was a team with yellow flags, protecting the Zhenglan Banner under the Chinese flag of a general who also wore yellow flag armor. The latter had also seen him, and without hesitation, he drew his sword and pointed it at him, and then the cavalrymen with the blue flag rushed straight towards him...

"Who is this!"

he shouted to the other side.

This section of the canal is only a few dozen meters wide...

In fact, the canal is only about one hundred meters wide. The narrowest point is even twenty or thirty meters, and the widest is only two hundred meters.

"The Han army of Zhenglan Banner is holding on to the mountain and Tong Tulai!"

the officer shouted.

Yang Feng smiled.

Brother Ma’s grandfather!

He looked at the Qing army getting closer and closer, and suddenly roared and rushed forward.

But at the same time, the latter raised a blunderbuss.

At a distance of tens of meters, the Qing troops on horseback opened fire. Bullets whizzed in the constant sound of gunfire. Although the cavalry's shooting accuracy was limited, these Qing troops continued to rush past them with tactics similar to round-robin shooting, and then took turns to attack them. Opening fire, the bullet hit Yang Feng and penetrated the outer armor, but was blocked by the steel plate inside. The Qing army that rushed over turned around and fired at him again. Only then did Yang Feng notice that the blunderbuss in their hands actually had three barrels, but the three barrels were arranged in a zigzag pattern and looked like one. They surrounded him like a whirlpool, and fired at him one by one from a distance of thirty meters. The cloth armor on his body was shattered into pieces, and even the steel plates inside began to fall...

"You have to wear plate armor from now on!"

Yang Feng, who tested its power, sighed with emotion.

The next moment, he ran into a cavalryman like a furious rhinoceros.

The galloping horse fell down immediately.

Almost at the same time, Yang Feng's right hand, Tie Lao, hooked the cavalryman and threw it outwards.

When the cavalry hit the cavalry behind him, he had already jumped up and smashed two iron fists down in the air. The cavalry's head exploded almost instantly. The huge force made the horse's legs weaken and fall down. After landing, Yang Feng jumped up on horseback. With his outstretched arms and extended iron legs, he hooked the two cavalrymen in front and behind him at the same time. When he landed, he suddenly swung forward. The two cavalrymen flew forward with the blood shed. out. He looked like the protagonist in an Indian blockbuster with a pretentious temperament, looking at Tong Tulai who was protected by his own soldiers in front of him...

"Surprise or not? Unexpected or not?"

Under the astonished gaze of the latter, he posed like a roc spreading its wings and said with a smile.
