Wanli 1592

Chapter 891 Let's do it tonight

Cold weather, lack of food and clothing, the army's will to fight is low, and the morale of the army is floating.

Under such circumstances, Li Wen's offensive was repeatedly defeated, but he repeatedly launched new offensives, and he would not stop until he broke through this line of defense.

And Deng Zilong also realized the benefits of persevering in this way, so he changed his original plan of retreating after defending for a period of time, and began to strengthen the defense line.

As a result, the casualties of Li Wen's soldiers and horses rose sharply. It is okay to say that the dead, but a large number of wounded soldiers did not receive proper medical treatment, so they died in the wounded barracks. Declining, the will to fight plummets.

Not only that, because Niu Bingzhong was dissatisfied with Li Wen's request to force the soldiers to attack, Niu Bingzhong repeatedly spoke out to stop him, and finally annoyed Li Wen. Frontline commander.

For this reason, the morale of the Ningxia Army was greatly shaken.

Not only that, because the army rations were delayed, the soldiers were forced to only drink porridge. The weather was cold and the battle was fierce. The soldiers' physical strength was exhausted very quickly, but they could only drink porridge. It is also easy to be hungry, which makes the soldiers extremely resentful.

The weather is getting colder and colder, but the military uniforms are not warm enough. Soldiers' hands are not well kept warm, so that they are too cold to hold their weapons, and they are shivering all over. In this regard, the solutions given by the senior officers It's actually running, as long as the soldiers are running, they won't be cold.

Many soldiers hated those thickly dressed high officers.

Even Li Wen could feel the change in the morale of the army, so he kept asking Zhang Yanshou to enlighten the soldiers and lead the soldiers to fight better so as to divert the soldiers' resentment. He himself knew that going on like this was not the way to go, but there was no better way right now. , can only quench thirst with poison.

A large number of soldiers died, and those who were alive were not treated well, and the situation deteriorated sharply.

Li Wen desperately attacked but failed to achieve good results. The Zhennan Army's calm defense achieved very good results, and the two armies entered a new round of confrontation.

And at this stall, Zhang Yanshou, the new general officer of Ningxia, was talking with a mysterious person in his tent with a sad face.

"Now that the situation has reached this point, will Zhang Zongbing continue to persist? Is there any reason to continue to persist? Niu Zongbing has become a scapegoat. Does Zhang Zongbing want to follow in his footsteps? Once Ningxia soldiers lose Too big, have you considered the consequences?"

The mysterious person kept persuading Zhang Yanshou.

Zhang Yanshou looked ugly.

"However, I am still the commander-in-chief of the imperial court. If I do this, what is the difference from rebellion?"

"The current court is not the court of the Ming Emperor! It is the court of Shen Yitong! Now the court makes decisions that are Shen Yiguan's business, all of which are driven by Shen Yiguan, for his personal desires! He can even be the emperor. Dethrone, let alone anyone else!

You are loyal now, you are loyal to Shen Yiguan, and you are fighting now, you are fighting for Shen Yiguan!Shiro was also the General Soldier of Ningxia, and I fought together under his command. During the Battle of Ningxia, we all fought side by side, but now we are fighting each other. Zhang Zongbing, how can you bear it? "

The mysterious man's face was full of sadness.

Zhang Yanshou's eyes wandered and his face was tense.

"I know what you said, but..."

"Niu Zongbing didn't listen to my advice. This has already happened. The entire army of Ningxia has suffered heavy losses. If this continues, our fellow villagers will bleed dry! What are you waiting for?"

The mysterious man's words became more intense.

"I……"

"Actually, you have the same idea as Niu Zongbing, but you don't dare, otherwise, you would have tied me up and sent me to Li Wen long ago, but you didn't do this, which shows that you yourself know Li Wen If there is no good end, he will definitely die, and so will Shen Yiguan! The world will be restored to justice eventually! Xiao Ruxun can help the world!
Our folks suffered heavy casualties, and without proper medical treatment, they would surely die if they were hit by lead. Li Wen was using our fellow villagers to pile up his own great achievements, but we were going to die in such a meaningless place. !

Zhang Zongbing, in one thought, the current dilemma is in your one thought!With just one thought, you can make great contributions, and when His Majesty restores you, you will be rewarded for your merits. Are you still afraid that you will not get a good position?What are you worried about?If nothing happens, Ningxia soldiers will die! "

Zhang Yanshou's breathing became short of breath.

He looked at the mysterious man.

"However, there are still two troops from Li Ruzhang and Du Tong..."

"It's been so many days. Have you ever heard the sound of fighting from the direction of Liuba? If Li Ruzhang's troops arrived at Liuba, they must have fought against the defenders of Liuba long ago. Would they not have any reaction? But right now Apart from our place, there is no movement to the east of Liuba! Li Ruzhang doesn't plan to take this muddy water at all! He is watching!

Du Tong is the same!The two of them lead an army alone, even if there is a supervising army of Zanhua in the army, it's just a matter of saying a word and cutting a knife, which is different from us!They have autonomy. If they want to procrastinate or wait and see, there are plenty of opportunities. We haven't contacted them, don't they know it?
They didn't move. According to the scheduled time, they should have arrived, but they didn't come. This is enough to show that we are the only ones who are desperately fighting, and Du Tong and Li Ruzhang have long planned to wait and see!Mr. Zhang, you can't hesitate any longer!If you hesitate for an hour longer, hundreds of brothers will die. Are you willing to see them die? "

Zhang Yanshou was finally moved.

"If I cause trouble, can the Zhennan army on the opposite side accept me?"

"Of course! They don't want to fight with you either! There may be old soldiers who fought with us on the Ningxia battlefield with us in the Zhennan Army on the opposite side. Most of them are now officers and have positions. Are you still afraid of them? Don't accept you? They have long wanted to break out of Qinling and enter Guanzhong!"

The mysterious person spoke earnestly: "Zhang Zongbing, the lives and futures of tens of thousands of brothers are in your thoughts!"

Zhang Yanshou lowered his head, pondered for a long time, took a deep breath, raised his head, his eyes showed a fierce look.

"He's not kind, I'm not righteous! I'm going all out! This time, even if I die, I can't be a coward! They're bullying too much! They're bullying too much!"

The mysterious man was overjoyed: "Brothers are saved! Zongbing Zhang, what do you want to do?"

Zhang Yanshou said angrily: "What else can I do? Brothers, the resentment towards those sour Confucians is not as great as usual. I led the troops to capture them and cut them off. Brothers, no one will object! They will follow." I'll take refuge with Marshal Xiao together! Don't treat our brothers as human beings, let them taste the taste of knives!"

Zhang Yanshou clenched his saber tightly, and then looked at the mysterious man.

"Be careful with this matter. I will bring my own soldiers, and you will also bring your own people. If you don't do anything, you will do it tonight!"
