Chapter 737: The happy enemy general

From Lang Sang Wei to Beijiang Prefecture, the post road is less than two hundred miles away.

Zhang Fu's army marched without any obstacles; the weather was good these days, and there was only one rain on the road, and the army maintained a marching speed of more than 40 miles a day.

It is expected that within four to five days, the official army will face the city of Beijiang.

Yin Desheng, the deputy general of the Yiyou, and the Marquis of Heyang, led troops under Zhang Fu this time; but he really hated the head coach Zhang Fu and his old subordinate Huang Zhong.

Back then, Yin Desheng was still a innocent young man. He admired the heroes who have been passed down from ancient times to the present. He sang a song and was filled with anger. He could be excited when he was angry and was ready to serve the court and make achievements.

However, when Yin Desheng first went to the battlefield, he was thrown into cold water, which taught him to gradually recognize the reality.

He was ambushed by Annan Army at Qin Station, and then fought bloody battles in Duobang City.

Yin Desheng may never forget the sea of ​​blood piled up under the city wall.

And all this is just for the military merits of the people above.

At that time, Zhang Fu and Huang Zhong ordered the soldiers to follow the Hundred Houses Team as the system, continue to climb ladders and build soil, and go up to die!

Yin Desheng is a hereditary 100-person family with more than a hundred living brothers under his command. After a day, there were only a dozen people left; he was quite lucky, and there were only one or two people left in some 100 teams.

Now Yin Desheng has come to Annan Kingdom again.

When he revisited his hometown, he seemed to see the enemy troops on his head again, dense arrows, rolling wood, boiling feces in the air; the piles of corpses and the retreat blocked by law enforcement teams and his own people.

People cried and roared in despair on the ladder, and their voices were as scary as they were in their ears.

Marquis of Heyang?Zhang Fu's voice woke Yin Desheng up from his distraction.

Yin Desheng, sitting on the horse's back, turned his head and saw a dragon-like man between the flat rice fields, with muskets and spears densely packed, as if there were leaves falling from the woods.

Zhang Fuzheng, not far away, turned around and looked at him.

Marshal.Yin Desheng clasped his fists and said, but there was no fluctuation in his words.

Zhang Fudao: Is this commander dissatisfied with the use of troops?

Did you actually see it?However, Zhang Fu's deployment this time and Yin Desheng were not very dissatisfied with him. He just had an objection to Zhang Fu.

Yin Desheng said: If the general has a military order, the last general will follow suit.

Zhang Fu nodded and asked again: I heard that during the Yongle period, the Marquis of Heyang was also in the army?

Yin Desheng replied: It is true that the last general fought in Duobang City.

Duobang City?Zhang Fu immediately said in surprise, my subordinates were fighting in that siege, and the men led by the emperor (Zhu Gaoxu) did not participate in the attack on Duobang City.Are you not a military general from Yunnan garrison?

Yin Deshengdao: The last general belongs to the Yunnan defender.At first, General Huang was ordered to escort Chen Tianping and dispatched troops from the Yunnan Guard, and the last general was recruited. After we were ambushed near Qin Station, Huang Zhong's troops did not disband.Later in the Battle of Annan, Huang Zhongjun Gui Dacheng (Zhang Fu) led the army of the late generals and served in the Eastern Army of the General.

I see.Zhang Fu suddenly said, "I had no impression of you at all in Annan Kingdom, and I didn't have a high grade?"

Yin Desheng said: The last general was a hundred households at that time.

Zhang Fu's face showed a strange expression, and he was silent for a moment and said: Leading troops to fight, only loyalty does not necessarily work.You just need to comply with military orders and never make any decisions.

Yin Desheng said coldly: The general is probably a little misunderstanding. The last marquis was not obtained by flattering the horse, but all military achievements were saved by one sword and one shot.If the general doesn't believe it, you can inquire.

Zhang Fu showed a smiley expression without comment.

Yin Desheng thought about it and did not continue to brag.

Perhaps some things cannot be confused by old-fashioned people like Zhang Fu. If it were not appreciated by the superiors, they would not even have the opportunity to accumulate military merits. Of course, they should also be lucky, otherwise they would be dead and military merits would be useless, just like Liu Dagen who was scalded to death in Guizhou by feces.

But Yin Desheng didn't like Zhang Fu and couldn't help but say: A few days ago, in Lang San Acropolis, the last general listened to the deployment of the general and used Huang Zhong and An Yuan Hou to clean up the rebels' retreat of Jiangbei Prefecture.The rebels are desperate, so don’t fight us?

Zhang Fu said: So what? It turns out that Marquis of Heyang felt that he had won too many things on the battle formation?

Yin Desheng frowned and said: The last general only suggested that as long as he defeated the enemy, he could still capture most of the troops, and there was no need to kill every enemy soldier.

Zhang Fu did not care and said decisively: The Marquis of Heyang should not relax, nor should they disobey military orders. Since this general is in charge of military power, no matter what his subordinates are or who violates military law, he will definitely be punished equally and severely!

Yin Desheng was speechless.

...When the army advanced south and reached Beijiang Prefecture City about dozens of miles away, Zhang Fu suddenly ordered the entire army to camp and defend.

Yin Desheng and others thought that Zhang Fu would first find out the enemy's weaknesses and fight safely.

Unexpectedly, only two days later, after the central army received a response from Huang Zhong and Liu Sheng to advance according to the military order, Zhang Fu immediately ordered the entire army to continue advancing.

The explorer had seen clearly the movements of the rebel Ruan Shuai's troops. The main force set up several large military camps ten miles north of the city, gathering all the people and horses together, and there was no sign of defending the city.

Such military information made the generals of the Ming army speculate: the enemy occupied Beijiang Prefecture, and seemed to be trying to attack the Ming army reinforcements that had just entered Annan?!

Zhang Fu's deployment was not to rescue Dongguan (Hanoi), but to counterattack.So as soon as the big players of both sides approached, they quickly began to evolve towards the main battle.

The situation is really unexpected, but it is not a bad thing.The battle between the two sides gathered troops is the most efficient and shortest time at this time. A battle can quickly determine the direction of the entire war.

This is exactly what the generals of the Ming army are willing to see, because the Ming army must achieve results as soon as possible before the end of the dry season, otherwise it will be difficult to continue the attack.The Annan War will be delayed for a long time.

In late September, the army of both sides gradually approached the north of the city, less than ten miles away.

Zhang Fu and other generals were unable to estimate the number of enemy troops more accurately; although the terrain was very flat, it was also relatively complicated.

The places where the rebels were active were many ponds, dense forests, paddy fields and villages, and the places where they could be moved were not very open; and there were many sporadic parade activities on the outside.

It was difficult for Ming army scouts to go deeper into its depth and inquire about details.

But judging from the size of the rebels' territory, the number of people may be greater than that of Zhang Fu.

The battlefield was mostly on the east bank of Shangjiang River. Yin Desheng led his army as the right wing, and the Shangjiang River surface could already be seen on the edge of the military formation.

After Zhang Fu inspected the battlefield, he found a place with fewer ponds and forests, and asked each department to set up a large formation.

Then order a group of people, consisting of cavalry, archers, and guns and shields, to go and pretend to defeat and lure the enemy to come and fight to the decisive battle.

The weather was clear and there was a thin mist between the sparse woods and grasses.

It looks white from a distance, and the scene is a bit hazy, but you can't feel foggy nearby.

Yin Desheng was on the right wing and ordered the Thousand Generals to line up to prepare for war. Before the fighter plane arrived, you should not act rashly.

These are all military orders Zhang Fu gave to the generals of the tribes.

I don’t know how long it took, but the sound of various firearms came from afar; it was far away, and Yin Desheng could not see anything.

However, he knew which firearms were released by the rebels, because the Ming soldiers who went to lure the enemy did not carry firearms.

The sound is probably the sound of some bowl, mouth, gun, gun, gun, and magic guns.

Yin Desheng paid attention to the scene ahead, and for a long time, he could only hear the sound of guns and cannons, without any movement.

There is a plain in the south, with several villages, overgrown shrubs, some paddy fields, and grass-covered wasteland. The sky is covered with a vast layer of white mist.

Apart from the wandering scouts, there was no one in front of them.The army approached and guns and cannons were fired. Even if there were civilians, they might find a place to hide.

The troops waited in a long time, and finally figures appeared in the fog in the distance.

There were more and more people, and in front of them were some loose archers and a small number of horse riding people, probably within a mile of the Ming army's front.

A group of archers were not far from the large rebels in the rear. They seemed to be worried that they would be attacked by the Ming army's cavalry too far away from the main force.

The number of horses and cavalry combat power of the Ming army were far from comparable to that of the Annan Army; however, in Annan Kingdom, cavalry often could not fully play a role.

The noisy people and horses were getting louder and louder, and from time to time, the cavalry in front of the Ming army were driven away.The enemy archers were hundreds of steps away, and were still approaching.

There are many flags around Yin Desheng, including a group dragon, sun and moon flag with blue background and yellow lines, military flags with words such as Yin, deputy general of Zhengyi, and other military flags, as well as bordered pennants of various colors.

The flag swayed listlessly and gently, and there was no wind today.

None of the Ming army units began to attack and were all in line.

The Annan Army's large number of troops have appeared. They have different armors, and their soldiers are mostly wearing bamboo hats that are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and some are also soldiers wearing iron helmets similar to the Ming army.

As the flag is shaking, it is probably written in Chinese characters.

The rebels had formations, but the Annan people always looked a little loose, not as scrupulous as the Ming army.

Not long after, dense string sounds had already come from several places in the east and west, and the two sides had gradually begun to fight.

The rebel vanguard took the bow and arrow, and shot arrows at the Ming army formation. The arrows hit the armor and shields of the guns and shields, and the sound of the divine arm in the Ming army formation was also shooting the bow and arrow.

The pain came from all sides.

Yin Desheng watched the surrounding scene on the horse's back and saw the rebels in the south of the woods, and the crowds with muskets had advanced in groups.

He shouted: Beat the drum, order all teams to prepare for counterattack!

Get order!

Soon, the sound of slow drums came from the formation, and the sound of hoarse and rough horns also sounded.The generals in the distance kept shouting and scolding, and the Ming army's formation became more and more lively.
