Ming politicians

() Su Tiancheng will not act arrogantly in front of the enemy.

He would not treat the lives of the Jiang Ningying brothers as a trifling matter because of a moment of anger. He made this decision after careful consideration.

From a general point of view, the biggest opponent that the Jiangning Battalion can foresee must be the full Eight Banners cavalry, which cannot be avoided. No matter what time it is, the two sides will have a life-and-death battle. Here we come, see the cavalry of the Eight Banners, fight it out, find out the details of the deal, it is best, of course, there must be casualties in a fight, this is unavoidable and must be accepted.

From a small point of view, the arrogance of the Manchu Eight Banners is too arrogant, and they must be cleaned up and dealt a merciless blow to let them know that Daming still has an army, which is their nemesis.

This time against the cavalry of the Eight Banners, Su Tiancheng was fully confident.

It was a surprise attack.

The cavalry of the Eight Banners ran amok after entering the customs. They thought that they had no opponents in the field battles. In the state city and in the guardhouse, they will not come forward to fight them. Under such circumstances, these cavalry will not have such a guarded mentality. If it is a small group of cavalry, say about ten people, or even a few people, I am afraid that after placing an order, there may be accidents, and I may be more vigilant, but there are more than 80 cavalry, which is already close to a cavalry squadron, so there must be no scruples.

They did not send out scouts to investigate the situation.It is the best proof.

Of course, there is another situation.These cavalry left the brigade and went directly to Dingxing County to plunder. After looting some property, they went to join the brigade. After all, the post-golden cavalry had the most important mission after entering the customs.It is the robbery of money and women.

Under such circumstances, one hundred scouts of the Jiangning Battalion deal with more than [-] cavalrymen of the Eight Banners, so as to be prepared to deal with the unprepared, at least there is no need to worry about failure.

Besides, many of the brothers in the scout battalion were Xiong Tingbi's personal soldiers back then, and they had seen Houjin's cavalry before.It's not that they don't know each other completely.

Tactical arrangements are very important. Liu Tiehan is willing to fight with all his might, and is not afraid of death. Unfortunately, he is not very prominent in tactical command, so I say.The tactical arrangement can only be considered by Su Tiancheng.

Of course, Sun Chengzong has rich experience, but after all, he doesn't know the actual situation of the Jiangning battalion soldiers.Moreover, in the middle of previous battles.Most of them are guard battles in the city, and there are very few encounter battles in the wild. I am committed to building the Jiangning Battalion for the purpose of large-scale army battles and confronting the opponent head-on.

Liu Tiehan looked at Su Tiancheng, this battle, he was absolutely going to fight well. Hearing what the scouts said, Liu Tiehan's eyes turned red with anger. When he was a bandit back then, he was not as cruel as the Houjin cavalry .

"Liu Tiehan, divide the brothers into two groups. The first group of 20 people will face the forward team of the Tartars head-on. They must be beaten hard and hurt them. The second group of 60 brothers will lie in ambush at the back. Divide a distance of three miles between the brothers, meet the first group of twenty brothers, and wait for the arrival of the Tazi brigade."

"The remaining 20 people, protect Lord Sun and Lord Lu, especially Lord Sun's family members, and absolutely guarantee their safety."

"The Tartars are good at riding she. Tell the brothers to fight in close quarters and don't give them a chance to draw their arrows."

"Specially ask my brothers, don't die, shoot and kill, regardless of whether the Tartars surrendered or not, let everyone remember that what I want is to make dumplings, not chase ducks."

"The Tatars are very good at riding, but I believe that the ability of the brothers to run is a hundred times stronger than that of the Tartars."

Time was running out, and the [-] soldiers of the scout battalion gathered quickly, and the last group of scouts sent out also returned to the team, and the situation remained unchanged.

Sun Chengzong and Lu Shanji looked at Su Tiancheng and did not speak for a while.

It's not that they didn't want to talk, but they were so shocked that they were speechless by Su Tiancheng's bold arrangement.

Could it be that the soldiers of Jiangning Battalion are really as brave and good at fighting as in the legend.

Su Tiancheng leaped to the front of the team.

"Brothers, we traveled thousands of miles to North Zhili. We were very lucky. We met the Tartars. Some of our brothers saw the arrival of the Tartars with our own eyes. There were ruins everywhere and displaced people everywhere. People, they were brutally ravaged by the Tartars, they lost their houses, relatives, and lives, they are our brothers and sisters, can we turn a blind eye, can we be shrinking turtles?"

"cannot..."

"Okay, then let's do a good job with the Tartars. Everyone knows that there are more than 80 Tartars. It is said that they are invincible in the world. No one dares to fight them in the wild. They entered the pass and plundered everywhere. I think it's their luck that they didn't meet our Jiangning camp."

In the middle of the team, the sergeant showed a proud smile.

"Brothers, we can despise them as much as possible, but we must not be too confident. We have wiped out more than 1 bandits in Zijinliang, more than [-] bandits in Lao Huihui, and more than [-] bandits in Fangming. This is the pride of our Jiangning battalion, but these are all internal. In today's battle, we are fighting against the Tartars and the Eight Banners. This is a crucial battle. As long as we wipe out this group of Tartars Son, we can proudly announce that our Jiangning Battalion is a truly invincible army."

"Facing the Tartars, we don't want to be merciful, don't be polite. When facing the Tartars, it's four words, shoot and kill, no matter whether he has put down his weapon or not, no matter whether he has surrendered or not, I don't want to die."

"I don't want the Tartars to slip away from our noses. That is a disgrace to our Jiangning battalion. Don't let them escape. He runs fast, and we chase him even faster."

"You are the elite of the Jiangning camp, and your every move represents the image of the Jiangning camp. Therefore, we must make the Tartars tremble in front of us, and make them fear us and fear us."

"It's still the same sentence, the sword is merciless, our brothers will be injured or killed in battle, and their unfulfilled wishes will be fulfilled by the living brothers."

"Okay, I'll just talk about this, the specific layout, according to General Liu's arrangement."

After finishing speaking, Su Tiancheng turned his head to ask Sun Chengzong and Lu Shanji for instructions, to see if they had anything to say.

Sun Chengzong and Lu Shanji shook their heads, saying they had nothing to say.

There are already sergeants, who have set up paper, pen, ink and inkstone.

All the sergeants got off their horses, walked up to the sergeant who could write, and briefly stated their last wishes.

Su Tiancheng was also surrounded by quite a few sergeants, and everyone naturally expressed their unfulfilled wishes, and they didn't feel uncomfortable, even though they said that Su Tiancheng was the supervisor of the Jiangning Battalion, everyone thought it was very unfair to do so. normal.

Sun Chengzong and Lu Shanji on one side were extremely surprised, this was the first time they had seen such a situation.

Soon, the specific arrangement came out, and Liu Tiehan personally led nineteen soldiers to meet the first group of Tartars.

Seeing that Liu Tiehan really arranged twenty soldiers to protect himself and his family, Sun Chengzong was unhappy, and finally spoke.

"Lord Su, I don't agree with such an arrangement. The old man's family members are going to go to battle to kill the enemy. It's just that their actions are a bit inconvenient. I'm afraid they will cause trouble to the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, so I won't force it. There are eight Tatars. There are more than ten people, you arrange twenty sergeants to protect Shanji and the old man's family, this is a shame to the old man, such an arrangement is absolutely unacceptable."

Lu Shanji was even more excited.

"Lord Su, I don't agree with this old man. I still want to go to battle to kill the enemy. What's so great about the Tartars..."

Su Tiancheng didn't dare to be careless, no matter what, the two adults and their family members couldn't have any problems.

"Master Sun and Lord Lu, this is already in a state of war. The juniors are not talented. As a commander, they are responsible for the victory or defeat of the battle. The Jiangning Battalion requires military orders like mountains and rivers. At this moment, the two adults must obey the arrangements of the juniors. "

"The old man knows that the old man is not adding to the chaos. The soldiers are going to fight the enemy. What's the use of guarding the old man? The old man can guarantee that he will not cause trouble to the soldiers. As for the old man's family, the old man is confident that they have the ability to resist the Tartars."

Before Lu Shanji could speak again, Su Tiancheng shook his head resolutely.

"No, the soldiers of the Jiangning Camp, the main purpose of coming to Baoding Mansion this time is to protect the safety of the two adults and their families. If there is any accident, it will be the dereliction of duty of the Jiangning Camp and the shame of the Jiangning Camp."

Seeing the blushing faces of Sun Chengzong and Lu Shanji, Su Tiancheng did not dare to insist too much.

"The younger generation took a step back and left ten people to protect the safety of the two adults and their families. The remaining ten people, led by Liu Tiehan, faced the first group of Tartars."

Sun Chengzong reluctantly nodded.

He was actually worried that although the soldiers of the Jiangning Camp were fierce, they had never been in contact with the Tartars, and they did not know how powerful the Tartars were. A defeat is a heavy psychological blow.

He faintly felt that on the future battlefield, the Ming army that wiped out the Eight Banners might really have to rely on the Jiangning battalion.

Therefore, what Su Tiancheng said has a deep meaning. It is a metaphor that this is the first battle, a crucial battle, and I am afraid that he is also thinking about the future.

After Liu Tiehan made all the arrangements, he came to Su Tiancheng's side again. He was about to set off with 29 brothers. Although he was full of confidence, the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and everything was possible.

Su Tiancheng patted Liu Tiehan on the shoulder vigorously.

"Liu Tiehan, be more careful, the sword is ruthless, you must protect yourself, don't be too reckless, keep the green hills, don't worry about no firewood, there are still many battles in the future, I need you."

Liu Tiehan's body trembled.

"Take care, my lord. The subordinates will return in triumph."
