Chapter 140

Although Marshal Zuo was ambushed by Qin Huan last time and suffered heavy losses, he still had more than 10000 soldiers to fight.

In fact, Zuo Liangyu didn't care about the seven or eight thousand people he lost. What he cared about was the tens of thousands of weapons, thousands of war horses, bows and arrows and a lot of cotton armor.

In order to buy these possessions, he not only nearly scraped off the land in Guanghua County, but also lost a lot of money. However, he didn't think about it, but it was all cheap for the anti thieves.

So I can imagine my hatred for those anti thieves. If he led the troops to pursue them alone, I'm afraid he would have killed them long ago to avenge them.

But with Qin Ming at the side, the situation is very different.

He was beaten to death in front, and Qin Ming hung behind to pick up cheap money. How could he do such a stupid thing?

Therefore, the generals of the Ming Dynasty can't fight together, especially when the official positions are the same and the strength is the same.

Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou and sun chuanting all know this. They will avoid this situation when dispatching troops. However, Xiong Wencan just came from Fujian and doesn't understand this market at all.

Thinking that the more troops and horses the better, he launched a two-way campaign at the same time. As a result, he beat a good hand badly.

If Hong Chengchou and sun chuanting were to command, Qin Ming would be blocked in Nanzhang county and Yunyang's officers and soldiers would be blocked in Zhushan.

Finally, let Zuo Liangyu lead the troops to pursue alone.

……

Under the mountain depression, Zuo Liangyu also fought. The old height of the muzzle pad of more than a dozen bowl guns was almost used as mortars.

However, more than a dozen children's fist sized bullets hit the mountain depression like a stone sinking into the sea. The range of loose bullets is not enough. They can only listen to a sound and scare people.

Although the slope of this mountain depression is not steep, it is only 200 meters wide. At most, thousands of people can reach the sky at one time.

Five attacks were launched in one morning, all of which were easily defeated by a group of heroes.

Zuo Dashuai wanted to let the musketeers and archers cover and copy the last mode again.

But Qin Huan also let the musketeers and archers help him. Behind the buttocks of those defending heroes, they are holding the supervisor team. Whoever escapes will be killed.

The 200 meter wide mountain depression is defended by up to 1000 people. The three battalions take turns. With the fortifications built and the wood prepared, there is no pressure at all.

There are a thousand women soldiers who save lives and heal the wounded, which virtually improves the combat effectiveness of the army.

No longer like before, one by one for fear of being cut down and scalded by dung, life is better than death.

It is precisely for this reason that in the siege a while ago, thousands of heroes were able to hurt so many and still didn't collapse. They dared to climb with a shield in the face of the feces thrown by the other party.

Zuo Liangyu killed and injured more than a thousand people. He didn't even fight with the thief army. Qin Ming's performance in the afternoon was even worse. He only rushed halfway up the mountain.

For two days in a row, three or four thousand officers and soldiers were killed and injured, but there was no sign that they could conquer the depression. Xiong Wencan's face was as black as charcoal, and his heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

"Commander, you can't attack like this tomorrow, or my troops will have to blow up the camp."

"Commander Qin, you are really a good soldier. More than 10000 troops, only a few thousand people were killed and injured, so you told the governor to blow up the camp?"

"Commander, it's not that the last general is incompetent, but that this oil adding war is a big taboo of the military. Brothers are unwilling to die. Forced coercion will only lead to mutiny." Qin Ming spread his hands with a single face.

Zuo Liangyu saw Xiong Wencan look over and said with the same single face: "commander, I have observed carefully at the end of the past two days. The thief army has sufficient troops and its combat effectiveness is not weak, and our army can't spread out. If we continue to attack like this, we will not only lose our soldiers and generals, but also lose our morale. I'm afraid there is a danger of the destruction of the whole army, so we have to think of other strategies."

Compared with Qin Ming, Zuo Liangyu should see deeper. He knows that if he continues to fight, it is not they who encircle and suppress the anti thief, but the anti thief who will fight them.

"Does the left general soldier have a good plan to break the enemy?"

Xiong Wencan's face became dignified when he saw what he said. There were indeed some complaints in the two-day army.

"For today's plan, either divide troops to bypass, or let Yunyang organize the army to attack Zhushan again."

"So, brother Zuo is willing to take the soldiers and horses down the path to attack Zhushan County?"

"Qin, don't fart. When did I say that?" Zuo Liangyu was furious, pointing to his nose and jumping to scold.

Obviously, the two have a grudge.

"The one surnamed Zuo was put forward by you. If you don't go, do you still want me to go?" Qin Ming scolded without showing weakness.

"That's enough. Do you still have ben in your eyes?"

Xiong Wencan slaps the table and roars.

Both of them turned their heads to one side and remained silent, while Liu Guoneng narrowed, as if he were going to sleep.

"Yunyang's guards have just experienced a big defeat and their self-protection is still insufficient. Where can they draw troops and horses to attack Zhushan? As for the soldiers and horses in other places, far water can't solve the near fire, so we have to divide troops and make a detour. "

After a long silence in the tent, Xiong Wencan said in a deep voice, and then looked at Zuo Liangyu on the left.

"Commander Zuo, you have been fighting with various anti thieves for many years. You have made great achievements and rich experience. Your soldiers and horses are also good at field attacks. Therefore, the governor decided to let you lead your troops to sneak attack Zhushan County. Do you have any objection?"

"If the supervisor has orders, how dare the last general not obey? However, the art of war says that you can't enter every forest or valley. The generals at the end of several trails have sent people to check carefully. They have been blocked by anti thieves. If you want to make a detour and sneak attack, you can only give up your food and supplies and Cross Mountains, but one bad thing is that the whole army will be destroyed.

Therefore, the end general is willing to retreat to Gucheng, then go north to Yunyang, then go south to Baihe and take the avenue in Zhuxi. However, the end general's troops are greatly damaged. Please let Liu shoubei go with the end general. "

Zuo Liangyu said with a fist.

It is absolutely impossible for him to take his troops and horses across the mountains to sneak attack Zhushan County.

"Commander, never! The thief army is powerful. Once brother Zuo leads the troops away, the anti thief takes advantage of the situation to kill. I'm afraid I can't stop it with my more than 10000 troops!"

Qin Ming thought for a long time, suddenly said, and immediately understood that Zuo Liangyu was the key to him.

"Hehe, isn't Qin Zongbing ashamed to say that? Those rebels are just a mob. We can't take them according to the mountain depression. Can't you beat a group of rebels in the field? "

"Hehe, since a mob, why did brother Zuo almost lose the whole army last time?"

"I've said it many times. It was careless. I was caught in an ambush for a moment. Can it be the same? If we open the fight squarely, I can kill 2000 people without leaving them. "

Zuo Liangyu's teeth itch with hatred when he uncovers his scars.

Seeing that the two people always quarrel with each other, Xiong Wencan also has a headache. What they say is reasonable. For a moment, he doesn't know whether to divide the troops.

For several days in a row, they quarreled constantly.

Zuo Liangyu refused to cross the mountains and take the path. If you want to go, take the avenue.

Qin Ming killed Liu Guoneng and didn't agree to let him take Liu Guoneng away. To go, he had to leave the dozen cannons and fire gun soldiers.

These cannons and fire guns were bought by Marshal Zuo at a high price. They are his killer mace. How can they be commanded by Qin Ming?

Qin Huan was happy to see that the army had not moved for several days. He asked Niu Er to stay in the mountain depression, and he went back to the county to continue training soldiers and horses.

He has bought off all the hunters in the mountains for a long time, so he is not afraid of sneak attacks by officials and soldiers, and he is eager for them to sneak attacks.
