Chapter 53 Chishui (Part 2); Previous page Return to Catalog Next page; On September 14, the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Chishui defended the south. A large number of auxiliary troops from the Shuixi Army are busy along the road from Aluomisuo to Chishuiwei. The grain transport teams on this road either use wheelbarrows or use manpower to transport heavy troops, and there is a constant flow back and forth. Some people who looked like Shuixi Army officers were holding whips and whipping them from time to time at those they thought were cheating and sneaking around. Those who were hit gritted their teeth without saying a word and speeded up their pace. There was a tense and busy scene on the road. . In the dense forest to the east of the road, several Ming soldiers wearing yellow armor stood on a hilltop and looked to the west. From their location, the road to the west is just a thin line looming in the mountains and forests. As for whether there are spots on the thin line, it is completely beyond the reach of the human eye. It's just that the man among these Ming soldiers was also equipped with a telescope. This man carefully stretched the length of the metal tube to adjust the focus, and at the same time, he kept whispering a series of numbers: three grain trucks. , and two grain trucks and four people with pockets on their backs The people next to this Ming army squatted on the ground and recorded the numbers read by their companions on a piece of paper. They just stood on this mountain for a whole day. It wasn't until the sun turned west that I packed up my things and turned around, heading east. Their shadows disappeared into the green forest in a flash. These Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers were wandering around the swamps and cliffs one after another in the forest. It could be seen that this was not their first time. After walking for several miles in the forest. The Ming Army officer stopped and took out a black iron box from his arms. Several others watched as he carefully placed the box flat in his hands and then gently opened its lid. One battle. We were lost, so we just made sure we were heading northeast. ’ The Ming Army officer reassured the people around him. While carefully putting away the compass, he strode forward again. The other Ming troops also followed closely behind the local officer without saying a word. They just walked through the inaccessible forest and occasionally brought out the screams of one or two birds. They walked less than ten miles northeast from the top of the mountain, and suddenly a huge camp suddenly appeared in front of these Ming soldiers. It was hidden deep in the dense forest, and flaming red sheets were dancing on the top. Ground military flag. There are many fresh wooden piles around this camp. At first glance, it was clear that the camp had just been felled and felled, and there were hundreds of Ming army soldiers surrounding the camp. They were sorting out bundles of wooden planks and mountains of wood, barrels, and boxes. They all performed their duties. Except for the sentries, almost no one noticed the few Ming soldiers who had just returned to the camp. The officer of the reconnaissance team did not say much to others, but took a roll of paper and went straight to the central camp. He ran to the door and said to the sentry: The first engineering team asked Chief Zhang Cen to see the general. ’ Jia Minghe quickly recruited Zhang Cen. Zhang Cen carefully reported what he saw today to the camp officer of the forward selection camp and then respectfully submitted the report on the enemy situation observed by his team. After casually asking Zhang Cen a few questions. Jia Minghe asked him to retreat. There were many officers from the Staff Department of Funing Town in his camp. These staff officers immediately picked up the data and began to calculate. The amount of food transported by a large enemy army has increased today but has basically stabilized. There are about 40,000 to 50,000 bandits on the other side of the Chishui River. ’ A meeting. ’ Jia Minghe responded in a low voice without comment. In the past two days, no new enemy combat troops have been observed crossing the Chishui River. It seems that Anbangyan's main force has arrived. It seems that it is time to close the net. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, the main force of the front camp followed the Chishui River and stopped advancing twenty-five miles east of Chishui Guard. At present, the main force of the front selection camp is still concentrated in the camp beside the Chishui River. They attracted An Bangyan's main attention. In order to prevent the Ming army from attacking eastward along the river, the Shuixi army also blocked several ropes on the Chishui River. Taking advantage of the confrontation with the Shuixi Army. The front selection camp also opened a path from the forest. ??Some people in the past thought that the army could fully supply the Jiaming River through the forest, but they also did not expect this. He only required that the vanguard of the vanguard camp be able to carry enough food and grass for a few days. Really sufficient supplies had to be transported through the Chishui River. A staff officer pointed at the map and said: One person. After repeated investigations by our army, there were not many blocking troops on the Chishui River. They pulled ropes along the river mainly to prevent us from sneaking across at night. They only served as a warning. ’ Well, I know this very well. ’ In the past few days, the Selection Front Camp has also been observing the movement and supplies of Shuixi bandits to Chishui Henan. The officer in the Staff Department estimated that the Shuixi resistance force consisted of about a thousand people. An Bangyan thought that as long as they could delay the Ming army's attack, it would be enough. The officialdom was in his hands anyway. An Bangyan believed that he had an absolute advantage in mobilizing troops. In order to ensure the secrecy of this camp, no fire is allowed here. All food is prepared by the camp on the Chishui River and then transported here. In order to reduce transportationThe total number of people in this camp is only less than a thousand. Except for the engineering team and the radiation team, there are very few combat troops in this camp. Combat troops will only enter this camp at the last moment. The camp set up by Jia Minghe in the jungle is enough to accommodate four troops. In addition, the artillery team has dragged over four six-pound guns. These days, the Radiation Heavy Team has been busy smuggling supplies to this secret base. Now that the road passing through has been designed, the Radiation Heavy Team is confident that they can move the materials in this camp through the more than ten miles of woods within two days. To ensure the supply of the assault troops. Immediately, an order was sent to the rear team to let the four teams A, B, C, and D enter this camp to rest for the night and then attack the Chishui River ferry early tomorrow morning, and then attack from both sides to open up the Chishui River route. ’ Jia Minghe read the information carefully one last time and finally felt that everything was ready and issued the overall plan. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? grown ups. ’ At dawn on September 15th, the vanguard of the Manisuo fire-fighting camp had arrived at Manisuo City yesterday, but the artillery had not caught up yet, so the Ming army did not immediately launch an attack on the city. Wait for Huang Shi to catch up with the translator. The Military Intelligence Department immediately interrogated the few dozen prisoners captured by Zhang Chengye. Zhang Chengye also accepted the surrender of hundreds of Yongning troops, which was beyond Zhang Chengye's expectation. These prisoners confessed that the main force of Yongning's army was defeated by Zhang Chengye. The Yongning Army originally only had about 30,000 combat troops. They had already suffered serious casualties when they attacked Chishui Guards, and they may have lost more than 1,000 people. And after the Ming army cut off the road between Pushisuo and Manisuo, the total number of troops in Neishuining together with the cut-off troops was less than 40,000. When they learned that the Ming army appeared behind them, the Shuining Army rearguard thought that this must be a lightly-armed force, so they immediately sent an army of two thousand people back to try to annihilate the Ming army. At least the Ming army must be contained to ensure the safety of Pu's territory. After receiving the warning, Yongning's ground-breaking troops all moved closer to the front line, so Zhang Chengye did not encounter any dried fish troops at all. According to the dejected prisoners, the first unit sent by the rearguard to the north was itself an elite infantry unit from Yongning. It also performed brave acts of fighting to the death when fighting in Chengdu and other places. Therefore, after receiving the news of the rapid collapse of this army on the 10th, the Yongning Army rearguard commander was very shocked. People who fled back said that the army had lost more than 20% in the blink of an eye, and all the leaders, officers and warriors who led the charge were killed in an instant. This army was severely damaged. It has completely lost its fighting ability and will to fight. By the afternoon of the 10th, the commander-in-chief of the Shuining Army opposite Zhang Chengye was one of She Chongming's sons. Due to the difficulty of roads and communications, the Yongning Army was unable to launch an offensive involving tens of thousands of people at once. So they could only let a few thousand people gather along the road and then enter the battlefield to fight back. In addition, the Shuining Army believed that the Ming Army did not have many men who could completely collapse the Ming Army after a few attrition, so they were forced to fight a war of attrition with Zhang Chengye due to the situation. However, the development of the situation was completely beyond the expectations of the Yongning Army. Combat troops rushed back from the south to assist in the battle. In order to clear the way for the follow-up troops and the heavy troops, they were sent up one after another, and were repeatedly attacked by the Ming army. ground defeated. The leader and warriors usually take the lead in every charge. As a result, the army suffered a heavy setback every time it failed. After a day of fierce fighting between the two armies. The Yongning Army was shocked to find that most of the troops in their hands had been disorganized. This time, the Yongning Army also made a rapid march to attack Chishui Guards in order to form an internal line of operations. In a hurry, they did not have much food reserves on the front line. By the end of the tenth day, some Yongning troops had already begun to starve. Before noon on the 11th, She Suiming came in person to direct the counterattack, but his luck was not as good as his son. The defense of the Ming army was as strong as iron and stone. Occasionally, some people escaped and they all said that the troops were almost incapable of causing casualties to the Ming army. This is not a war of attrition but a war of death. By the afternoon, the Yongning army, which was rushing back in a hurry, was completely out of food. She Chongming seemed to judge that this Ming army was the core elite of the Ming army, so She Chongming decided to use the cavalry he had treasured for a long time to go out and fight. In addition, She Chongming also scraped the ground to find every horse he could collect, even the draft horses used to pull grain. At the same time, in order to further enhance the effect of the attack, She Chongming also took out the local leaders and people among the remaining troops. The warriors were also pulled out. The last cavalry charge that Zhang Chengye encountered was actually the core members of the entire Yongning Xuanfu Division. Most of the leaders and their nephews were among them. Those who survived the previous attack and escaped back to their positions. The leaders also went into battle again to fight to the death in order to give the entire army a way out. After interrogating several captured cavalry, it was found that although She Chongming himself was not in this team of cavalry, his three sons all participated in the charge. Huangshi immediately sent people to identify them and finally found two of them from the corpses. The other cavalrymen who died in battle seemed to be also famous. A large number of local people and their close relatives were identified. After listening to the prisoners’ confessions, Huang Shi felt that the northern flank of the battle was almost over.After the victory of the Yongning Xuanfu Division, the political model still basically fell into the category of slavery. The leaders and their nephews were the backbone of the Yongning Xuanfu Division. Even if these people return to active duty now, they will be caught in one fell swoop. That's seven or eight out of ten. With the help of these people, Huang Shi estimates that She Suiming has basically lost the ability to control the army. Since the 12th, the war has continued to corroborate the confessions of the prisoners. The Yongning army was defeated by the Ming army's attack. Often, as soon as the Ming army starts firing, they can see a large number of Yongning Army soldiers breaking away from the control of the officers. The Yongning Army, which fled into the mountains and forests in all directions, was able to launch a tenacious attack in the first two days, and even lost its defensive capabilities after one night. Starting from the 13th, it was not the resistance of the Yongning Army that restricted the progress of the Ming Army, but the Ming Army's own logistics. The long supply line from Pushi to the front line forced the Ming Army to stop many times to wait for rations. Huang Shi ordered a simple identification of the prisoners of the Yongning Army and organized the low-level soldiers among them into the Ming Army's Ground Radiation Detachment. But in this way, the Ming army had to leave a security force to monitor them. According to Huangshi's order, the Ming army prohibited any form of massacre of prisoners, and Huangshi did not hesitate to increase the logistical burden but also to feed the prisoners. This order, of course, further slowed down the progress of the Ming army. In order to transport enough food to the front, even the artillery team of the Ming Army often had to make way for the food transport team. Starting on the 14th, a large number of Yongning troops came out of the mountains and forests and surrendered to the Ming army. They had been hungry in the mountains and fields for several days, and the dozens of miles of roads were occupied by the Ming army. They have nowhere to go. In the past three days, Huangshi has been promoting the Ming army's prisoner policy to the prisoners, and also asked activists to go into the mountains to find their tribesmen to promote it. A large number of Yongning Army soldiers who were hiding were hungry and had no leader. Coupled with the propaganda of the Ming Army, many people felt that starving to death was not a good idea, so they might as well surrender and try their luck. After the Ming army gave them enough food, these Yongning Army soldiers voluntarily helped the Ming army carry food and grass. In the past, they had always been oppressed by the chieftains and had lived a life of slavery since birth, so they became at a loss after losing contact with the chieftains and the chieftains. Many people vaguely felt that they were helping the Ming army. Even if you die in the end, at least have a full meal now. It is better to die of hunger than to starve to death in the mountains or be eaten by wild beasts. Although these people have strengthened the Ming army's ground and rear transportation capabilities, it took a lot of effort for the fire-fighting battalion to rectify them. Therefore, it was not until the evening of the 14th that the leading troops of the Ming army entered Manisuo City. At noon on the 15th, Huangshi's long-awaited cannon finally arrived. Under the bombardment of the cannon, the Ming army quickly wiped out the Yongning army on a section of the city wall. The Ming army put up ladders and climbed up the city wall, then set up fire weapons and started shooting into the city. . Under the cover of Fire Mirror, the Ming army quickly eliminated the Yongning army near the city gate. During this period, a small group of Yongning troops bravely went out of the city to attack the Ming army's artillery positions. However, in front of the artillery, fire and spears, these brave troops evaporated as quickly as dewdrops from the sun. After the Ming army on the city wall isolated the city gate, Huang Shi ordered the artillery to be moved to the front of the city gate. Without the cooperation of two wings, the lonely city gate tower itself does not have much defensive capabilities. Now Mani's gate tower cannot even counterattack in depth, so Huangshi estimates that the city gate can be breached in one go soon. However, when the fire-fighting camp moved the feast to the gate of Manisuo City, the Yongning Army stationed there opened the door and surrendered. According to these soldiers, She Suiming had escaped last night and Mani had already eaten up the little food he had left. Today, the city was guarded by the Ming Dynasty. A trusted leader and his followers were killed by the Ming army when they left the city to counterattack. Therefore, the Yongning army in the city lost all will to resist. These prisoners also further confirmed that Zhang Chengye's victory that day had destroyed the foundation of Yongning's Xuanfu Division's rule by the Ming army. She Chongming was no longer able to effectively command the remaining Yongning army, so he fled to Chishuiwei with the last group of cronies. It is said that Anbangyan's troops have also arrived and completed the siege of Chishui Guards. The rebels tried to defeat the Ming army defending the city through a tight siege. She Suiming hoped to obtain supplies from the Shuixi Army and use their power to regain control of the Yongning Army. The Yongning Army is no longer a problem. They may still be able to defend the city, but they have undoubtedly completely lost their field capabilities. Listening to these reports of surrender, the remaining troops in Shesu Ming have neither food nor morale, and are seriously lacking even officers. It will be difficult for them to keep marching without collapse, let alone fight. ’ Huang Shi wrote another letter. Send him back to Guiyang to report his victory. So far, the progress of the Ming army has been much smoother than expected. Judging from the combat effectiveness of the Yongning army, it would be a fantasy for the rebels to capture Chishui Guards where 5,000 Ming troops were stationed. He Dingyuan had already made a long-term plan to stick to it. There was a lot of food shipped in for him. If He Dingyuan saved a little, he would eat less. There will be no problem if the Panshi camp persists until October. He Dingyuan also had sufficient ammunition because at that time,They were worried that not enough operations for Panshi would put them in danger, and in order to provide them with supplies, the supply to the forward camp was seriously affected. September 17th: The capital has been in danger several times recently. Even though the queen was reduced to tears, the imperial doctors were helpless and the courtiers in the capital were also whispering behind their backs. King Xin was called into the palace to pay his respects. This is just in case Apocalypse himself is well aware that he may be at the end of his rope. In the past few days, in addition to King Xin, Tianqi also asked his adoptive mother Li Xuanshi to have some words. Looking at Tianqi and King Xin, the brothers raised by her, Li Xuanshi was so sad that she shed tears. In the end, Tianqi comforted his adoptive mother and made some jokes with his eighth sister (Li Xuanshi's daughter). But the younger sister, who was still a little girl, had no idea that her brother was in danger. Yesterday, I received a report from Yunnan Province. After hearing about this, Huangshi launched an attack on the rebels with alarming speed. Tianqidi's condition seems to be improving again. Since Tianqi entered July, he has often been unable to sleep all night long. Even if he fell asleep, he would often wake up by himself. As a result, Tianqi slept very deeply last night and did not wake up until dawn today. I slept soundly last night and my appetite felt better this morning. Tianqi ate a few snacks while the Queen waited on me. Looking at the joyful young queen, the young emperor smiled tenderly, stretched out his bony hand and gently cradled his wife's head: I will make an example for you as soon as I am well. Don’t do two. ’ The queen put Tianqi’s withered hand on her face. The young couple stayed like this quietly until the eunuch reported that King Xin had entered the palace again to greet his brother. After King Xin comes. Tianqi asked him to hang up the map of the southwest. Then King Xin circled the locations where the Huangshi army was stationed on the map based on Zhang Heming's memorial, and then traced the marching routes of the various Ming armies on it. Seeing Tianqi look so good today, Wang also became energetic. The teenage boy stood in front of the map, danced and talked about his views on the war situation in front of his brother and sister-in-law. King Xin excitedly talked about the strategy and apocalypse in his heart. He sat on the bed and leaned in his wife's arms with a kind smile on his face, watching his younger brother excitedly in front of the military map. After King Xin said goodbye and left, Tianqi sighed: My brother is already seventeen this year. He may not know that this is the golden age in life. ’ After a long morning of tossing, Tianqi felt very tired, so he lay down again. The Queen covered him with the quilt and tucked him in every corner. Once I’m done, Huang Shuai’s side will also have a complete victory. ’ Tianqi looked at the ceiling with bright colors in his eyes: I have to toast Huang Shuai, and I have to repay the big loan for Huang Shuai. ’ After finishing speaking, Tianqi lowered his eyes and looked at his queen and smiled again: Once I grow up, the queen should give birth to a prince for me. 'On September 18th, the Ming army camp in the south of Manisuo City had been opened a few days ago. The communication line from Zhouzhou to Fushisuo had been opened. However, to Huangshi's surprise, the one who arrived first was not the large reinforcements of the Ming army but the Southwest Governor. Teacher Zhang Heming. After Huangshi sent a victory last time, Zhang Heming made some publicity in Guiyang and felt that he would not be able to play his role as the governor of the four provinces by sitting in Guiyang. So he went to the Ming Army's Bozhou camp in person to coordinate the overall situation and think about the next step for the Ming Army. How to act. Under the influence of Zhang Heming, Wu Mu also came to Bozhou and saw that Bozhou would become the administrative center of the southwest. But after hearing that Huangshi's successful fire-fighting camp across the mountains and forests had been inserted between Fushi Institute and Mani Institute, cutting off the Yongning army's retreat and food routes, Zhang Heming couldn't sit still even in Bozhou. He left Wu Mu to continue to be responsible for food, grass and radiation. Heavy Transport himself took a soft sedan and hurried all the way from Bozhou to Bozhou. After arriving in the state, Zhang Heming received news of the restoration of the land from Universal Residence. Mr. Zhang pulled out the map, glanced at it, and then rushed to the universal institute without stopping. Finally, he arrived at the destination with the two battalions of Sichuan troops as reinforcements. Zhang Heming only stayed in Universal Place for one night before setting off again to catch up with Huangshi's troops. You must know that this old man is seventy-six years old this year. But his physical performance was simply better than that of the young men in the two battalions of the Sichuan Army. Although Zhang Heming either traveled in a sedan or in a carriage, Zhang Heming came all the way from Bozhou after all. It's so admirable that he can continue on his way after just one night's rest. After handing over the defense of Pushisuo to the Sichuan Army, the two teams of Funing Army began to move south, while the Funing Army's cavalry selected elite soldiers and strong generals to protect Zhang Heming. Finally, before nightfall yesterday, he was safely delivered to the Ming Army in Manisuo. Camp. After dawn today, Huangshi accompanied the energetic old man Zhang Heming to inspect the front positions. Although the terrain between Chishuiwei and Manisuo is flatter, there is still a forty-mile mountain road. At this time, the front line of the Ming army has reached Chishuiwei twenty miles away. Huang Shi and Zhang Heming climbed to the top of a hill occupied by the Ming army. He pointed the direction of Chishui Guards to the latter and saw that the city was already vaguely visible: an old pictureThere is the Chishui Guard. There are about 50,000 to 60,000 thieves around the Chishui Guard. "That's so many?" Zhang Heming didn't understand the situation when he first arrived, but he was still shocked by the number. First, at the end of yesterday, the local general captured several more rebels and captured them. They testified that General Jia Minghe had captured the Chishui Weinan Ferry and set fire to the suspension bridge on the Chishui River. Since yesterday, the rebels have ordered to save rations. ’ Zhang Heming coughed and asked someone to bring up the map. He looked at the map for a while, then raised his head and asked Huangshi: Are the two thieves Yishe Chongming and Anbangyan among them?' Once Zhang Laohua heard from the surrendering soldiers that these two thieves were there. Huang Shi drew a big circle with his hand and said to Zhang Heming in a loud voice: As Zhang Lao expected, the thieves were indeed cunning and refused to fall into the trap. Finally, General Jia Minghe ordered General Jia Minghe to abide by Zhang Lao's orders and investigate. , another investigation, and three investigations finally got all the tens of thousands of thieves into the trap. ’Huangshi’s words were like a warm current. Zhang Heming's cheeks on both sides became rosy. He raised his chest and twirled his white beard and looked south for a while. Shen Sheng said to Huang Shi: "If Huang Shi catches these two thieves." Then the great events in the southwest are settled. This time you must set up a dragnet to prevent these two thieves from escaping. ’ I will obey your orders at the end of the day. ’ Huang Shi bowed behind Zhang Heming and respectfully raised his hands to salute the old man. September 19th. The Ming army continued to attack in the direction of Chishui Guards. From the top of Huangshi Lima Mountain, he used binoculars to carefully observe the battle scene between the two armies. There are now a large number of rebels around Chishui Guards. Almost every hilltop on the way forward is defended by rebels. In the past three days, the proportion of the Yongning Army killed by the fire camp has been getting lower and lower, while the proportion of the Shuixi Army has been getting higher and higher. The collapse of the Yongning Army on the southern wing has obviously also had a huge impact on the Shuixi Army. Clouds of smoke rose up from the hills in front of the road. The Ming Army's artillery was continuously bombarding the hills on the roads controlled by the rebels to disrupt the enemy's deployment. Under the gaze of Huangshi, the Ming army formed a tight fighting formation and carefully climbed up a mountain in front. Under the cover of the Ming army's artillery, the rebels were unable to take advantage of the geographical advantage to resist. In the past, the simple fortifications they built on the hilltops were easily destroyed by the Ming army's artillery fire. The wooden structure of the field fortifications not only did not bring much to the rebels. The cover actually caused them a lot of casualties due to the flying sawdust. The Ming army quickly climbed up the mountain and attacked the rebels on the back from a high position. As the red flag began to dance, Huangshi knew that the small number of rebels on the back were driven into the woods by the firepower of the Ming army. Now that the Ming army is slowly attacking Huangshi one by one, there is no need to attack too quickly, because time is the Ming army's best ally. The main reason why the fire fighting battalion is constantly attacking to compress the rebel territory is to contain the rebel forces so that they cannot concentrate their efforts on breaking out from the southern front. Judging from Huangshi's attacks in the past two days, he believed that this was the idea of ??She Chongming and An Bangyan's attack, because the rebels on the northern front were neither resolute nor strong in resistance. The intention of these rebels seemed to be to delay the Ming army's offensive. By the time Zhang Heming came to inspect the work again, Huang Shi could already proudly report to him: Mr. Zhang. We are still eighteen miles away from Chishui Guards and we can advance to within fifteen miles today. ’ More and more rebels began to surrender to the Ming army. As of today, the number of Yongning and Shuixi troops who have laid down their arms has exceeded 20,000. The same policy as before. Huangshi just controlled all the local people among them, and the remaining soldiers were mobilized to carry food and grass. And you can still eat enough. Under the hilltop where Huang Shi and Zhang Heming were located, another long list of prisoners was taken over by the Ming army. At the same time, two artillery pieces were pushed forward in the opposite direction. The Ming army wanted to deploy them on the hilltop they just occupied. The hilltop was a very good commanding height. Where the artillery was deployed, they could overlook several hills ahead. There are about 50,000 Shuixi bandits and Yongning bandits inside. They are surrounded by my Ming Dynasty King’s disciples from all directions in this small area. They have neither food nor ships. Soon the whole army will be destroyed. Huang Shi stood behind Zhang Heming and pointed out to him the rolling mountains and woods on both sides of the road. These formed a natural encirclement: even if they rushed into the mountains and forests, opposite these mountains and forests were the Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers who were arriving this time. The two thieves Chong Ming and An Bangyan were already unable to escape. ’ After Huang Shi finished speaking, he took a breath and said loudly to Zhang Heming: A man strategizes hatred, thinks deeply and acts prudently, She Chongming, and An Bangyan, the two thieves, have no other way but to capture them without mercy. ’ Zhang Heming is now also wearing a suit of armor. Although a lot of bits and pieces have been removed from Zhang Heming's Kaijia, it still weighs more than 30 kilograms. But the old man still walked as fast as he could. Since coming to Mani, seeing this great situation, Zhang Heming has become even more energetic and can definitely be called the face of a crane child. After accepting Huangshi's compliment with a smile, Zhang Heming also praised loudly: "A really strong general has no weak soldiers. If you can put an end to the chaos in the southwest this time, Huangshi, you should take the credit!" ’ I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Zhang for promoting the junior general.??. ’ September 20th, Chishui Henan Front Camp Camp captured the Chishui River Suspension Bridge in a surprise attack a few days ago. Jia Minghe lit a fire and burned the bridge completely. Then select the forward camp to attack from two lines. After advancing along the Chishui River, they wiped out the Shuixi Army's ground attack troops in one day. Because of the loss of food and grass supplies. Most of the Shuixi rebels escaped through the forest and fled back to their base in the rear through the Aluo Misuo. Some die-hard elements still want to play hide-and-seek with the Ming army and hesitate to leave Chishui River too far. But Jia Minghe's move was to ensure the smooth flow of shipping on the Chishui River. The natural service was interested in going deep into the woods to pursue them. The Ming army simply pulled out the ropes they hung on the river, and then the Ming army's bamboo supply rafts began to transport grain, grass and ammunition forward. In the past two months, the Funing Town headquarters has sent thousands of additional troops. Now that the supply line to Panshi Camp is blocked, it is too difficult to reach the fire-fighting camp, so Jin Qiude has been filling up the establishment of the forward selection camp. Whether it was the previous attrition due to illness or the officers and soldiers who were damaged in this battle, they were immediately supplemented from the Yongzhen Camp. Now, not only are all the teams in the forward selection camp fully staffed, Jia Minghe also has four general teams with a total of 200 people in his hands. If he needs them, he can also ask for them from the Bozhou camp. For several days, the rebels continued to try to cross the Chishui River to break out of the encirclement, and the Ming army continued to thwart their attempts. Along the south bank of the Chishui River, the Jia Ming River deployed security posts that were ten miles long, with a team at each mile as a mobile force. There are only a few places where you can cross the river where the current is relatively calm. If rebels are found crossing the river, a large number of fire fighters will arrive at the scene quickly. In most cases, when the rebels struggled to cross the fast-flowing river, they and their bamboo rafts would be beaten to pieces by the Ming army before they were halfway through. Today, another batch of reinforcements arrived from Bozhou Camp. In addition to the Selected Front Camp, there are more than 3,000 Southwest Ming troops gathered here. They mainly help Jia Minghe with night security work. Those commanders mainly led their subordinates to make bamboo sticks during the day and then stuck them all over the shore in the hope that someone would step on them at night. Jia Minghe estimated that the friendly forces had inserted hundreds of thousands of embroidery sticks in the past three days. Of course, the forward selection battalion also accompanied them and inserted some of these things. Although they would not have any effect during the day, their power at night was not bad. Although there is not much difference between forcibly crossing the river at night and committing suicide, every night they can encounter several groups of madmen. For this reason, the Ming army lit piles of ground fires on the river bank. Even if the rebels can defeat the invisible whirlpools, rapids, If there are rocks and bamboo sticks, they will be discovered by the Ming army as soon as they land. It was quiet throughout the morning of the 20th, with reports from everywhere that there were no forced transfers by rebels. Jia Minghe thought for a moment and then ordered the cordon to be expanded again. In the afternoon, there was a faint sound of artillery from the direction of Chishui Guards. Jia Minghe personally ran up the hill to observe to the south. Although he did not see any conclusive signs, the rebels did not have artillery. This must be the most likely possibility. It should be the Ming army's front line. The pressure is coming. In the afternoon, someone reported that a large number of rebels were gathering at the ferry crossing of Chishuiwei. This place has a beach with relatively slow water flow, and after crossing it, you can quickly set foot on the official road, so it has always been the place where the Jiaming River pays the most attention to defense. He also deployed six artillery here. When he heard the alarm, he immediately rode there. . As the report said, a large number of rebels were brazenly building bamboo rafts on the other side, and an entire forest was cut down by them. Upon seeing this, Jia Minghe ordered the artillery fire. A six-pounder gun kept roaring, knocking down a few bamboos or trees from time to time, stirring up patches of dust near the rebel group. But the rebels didn't react at all this time. They just continued to build bamboo rafts there. Jia Minghe took out his binoculars and looked towards the other side. Several officers from the Staff Department stood upright behind Jia Minghe with their hands behind their backs, all holding their chests high. A thief soldier is still piercing a kind of bamboo armor. ’ Jia Minghe murmured in a low voice while observing the movement on the other side: It seemed to be a kind of half-length bamboo armor. One of the thieves made one, and it was indeed a bamboo armor. He even put it on his body and tried the size. ’ The rebels seemed not to care at all about the artillery shells that were flying around them from time to time, but they were concentrating on building floating tools. Jia Minghe gently took the telescope away from his eyes and looked thoughtfully at the other side without saying a word for a long time. "We might be able to disperse them by letting six guns fire at the same time." A young staff officer loudly expressed his suggestion, but Jia Minghe shook his head: "You are dreaming, Mr. Qian." "As soon as the cannon fire stopped," Jia Ming suddenly took a few steps back and gave a loud order, and at the same time put the monocular telescope hard away. He looked around at the officers around him and shouted loudly again: The four artillery pieces were also mobilized, and the defense area of ??the forward selection camp was concentrated to the surrounding five miles. The other defense areas were left to friendly forces to fill in. ’ That night, thousands of people sang around Chishui Guard. Huang Shi walked out of the camp and looked at the spring fire in the direction of the singing for a while, waving for an interpreter: "What are they singing? That night."Thousands of people sang around Shuiwei. Huang Shi walked out of the camp and looked at the reed fire in the direction of the singing for a while, beckoning for a translator: "How many times are they singing?" An adult said that these are ancestral songs of the bandit soldiers, about their heroes, Their ancestors and their gods have been passed down for more than two thousand years. "Is that so?" Huang Shi asked again softly. He quietly listened to the chorus of thousands of people singing, which seemed to contain infinite emotion and reverence. Under the starry sky, it also contained endless sadness and hesitation. There was also a kind of high-spiritedness that reached into the sky.; Didn't finish reading?
