Chapter 50
: Break Thousand Army in One Battle (Part 1)
As expected, before dawn, the spies had already received news that the brave men recruited from the prefectures and counties near Dezhou began to gather towards Dezhou City. This must have been because of someone's order that they would be so consistent and bold.
At this time, the army heading north was led by Yu Song. After Wang Chengen's treatment and his internal strength was taught, Yu Song's aura seemed to become more and more fierce, so that many soldiers would feel a cold air when they approached him.
It was precisely because Zhu Gan saw his coldness that he was asked to go north to Hejian Prefecture, not only to cheer up the White Lotus Sect and reduce pressure to prevent the White Lotus Sect from being wiped out too quickly, but also to prevent the Red Army from being influenced by the White Lotus Sect. After all, there must be a reliable and prestigious person who testifies so that Zhu Gan will feel at ease to let people go north.
Zhu Gan gave Yu Song the right to act temporarily, but there is one thing: as long as the messenger arrives, no matter whether he is sieging the city or being besieged, he must immediately break through the siege and go south under any circumstances.
Although Yu Song was a little more vigorous, his style of conduct was very steady. Every time he moved forward, he would investigate in advance. He would try his best to avoid those cities with high food and heavy troops. He went north steadily and steadily, and countless anxious wrinkles were sent to the capital like snowflakes, which made the Ming court very passive.
I am afraid that this army and the White Lotus Church will be extremely destructive. While urging the three camps of the capital to quickly wipe out the White Lotus Church, I took the opportunity to ask Queen Yi'an to dispatch the newly formed 12th Regiment Battalion. Only when this army leaves the capital or is inserted into the relevant direct troops will the court feel peaceful.
At this time, the city was short of food and the impact of Texas' occupation had been revealed. She had mastered most of the food. It was when her authority was at its peak, so she naturally suppressed these urgent reports and waited for the result of Lu Xiangsheng's battle with the Red Army.
At this time, the White Lotus Sect completely became a thief and ran around. Their previous actions of slaughtering the city once they broke the city had spread throughout the north. As long as the White Lotus Sect wandered from now on, no matter how high the city was, the people would definitely go to the city to help defend the city in order to protect their own safety.
Under such circumstances, it becomes very difficult for the White Lotus Sect to obtain food or weapons. The consequence is to take down a city, with heavy casualties and injuries. Then in order to vent their anger, they will definitely massacre the city again. Only then did the White Lotus Sect find that the harder they could survive in the north.
When they learned that 10,000 soldiers of the Red Army were heading north, the two guardians in the White Lotus Sect were still a little happy and began to flow southward, wanting to meet with them, but once they have a goal, they no longer wander around, and the government encirclement and suppression becomes purposeful.
The White Lotus Sect then realized that they were struggling, and what made these guardians even more outrageous was that these red-clothed soldiers suddenly turned around and went south. They felt like clowns, and they were tricked by the nose. The hatred of Zhu Gan in the White Lotus Sect for several people became more and more profound.
When they came to their senses, they found that they had unknowingly got into the pockets of the government army, and the government army was preparing to encircle and wipe them out.
What made them even more frightened was that there was an additional cavalry unit in the official army, and there were few more than one thousand people, but these thousand people had a loud name. Guanning Iron Cavalry was led by Cao Bianjiao, the nephew of Cao Wenzhao. It was obvious that the main force of Guanning Iron Cavalry led by Wu Xiang had arrived in Xuanfu, and the Ming court could take out his hands to deal with these traitors.
The White Lotus Sect’s guardians, the gods also knew that their destruction of Rizi was not far away. Confronting Guanning Iron Cavalry was tantamount to seeking death, and they all began to find their own way out.
At this time, Dezhou City was in full swing. Zhu Gan did not think about seizing the city and defending it. Instead, he sent troops to attack everywhere and wiped out the temporary militia warriors. After continuous pursuit and death, the five thousand cavalrymen were getting more and more sharp and sharper. At this time, they had returned to the city to rest and prepare for the next battle.
At this time, Zhu Gan and Lu Xiangsheng seemed to have had a tacit understanding. Both sides kept tempting and constantly searching for each other's flaws.
Zhu Gan found Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army. Although it was named, most of them were not his direct lineage. There were 500 model soldiers from Yunzhen, 500 Mao soldiers recruited by Jiang Yunyi, 600 Shizhu soldiers from Zhou Shifeng, 3500 Xu Chengming's sect soldiers, 5000 Deng Yan's Sichuan soldiers, and except for Deng Yan's 5000 Sichuan soldiers, the others can be regarded as mobs.
However, Zhu Gan did not dare to underestimate it. After all, the person who led the army was Lu Xiangsheng, a fierce man who could turn a sheep into a tiger.
Through the temptations of these village warriors and constant spies, Lu Xiangsheng also touched Zhu Gan's background. As he speculated, ten thousand red-clothed troops headed north and were turning rapidly. There were only a little more than five thousand red-clothed soldiers in Dezhou City. There was no news about the Red-clothed troops coming from Jiangnan. There was another fleet of more than 10,000 people hiding somewhere.
Judging from Zhu Gan's actions, he seemed to have no intention of defending the city, but was constantly honing his cavalry. It seemed that he had the intention to fight with him in a field and wanted to decide the outcome in one battle.
It seemed that the thief leader was a decisive person, which was just his wish. Before the Red Army heading north turned around, he defeated the five thousand cavalry. But what made him feel tricky was that all signs showed that the Red Army was different from ordinary bandits. The combat effectiveness was not based on robbery and the sharpness that was won over with money, but had the idea of fighting. Such an army was very terrifying.
With a nervous heart, the 10,000 Tianxiong army quickly approached Dezhou City, and he had to fight the Red Army in a decisive battle, because if such an army arrives in Dezhou City, he will undoubtedly be defeated.
In the mist, you can see the red blood sword flag floating on the city of Texas. It camped three miles away and rested for one night. It will be the time to decide the outcome. The Red Army did not come to the sao to disturb the camp that night. It was obvious that they all had the same plan, and they had a good rest for a night and wait for the decisive battle after dawn.
Lu Xiangsheng knew where the combat power of an army came from. Those who were both on the top and bottom won. Obviously, the army in front of him was very strange, so he never mobilized before the war and couldn't help but want to say something.
"We fight together. I am not your parents of food and clothing, because they are all given by the court. But we eat the king's fortune to block the worries of the king. Now that we fight, no matter what wins or loses, we will definitely be famous in history and let future generations remember it, and I will always be ahead of you."
After saying this, Lu Xiang raised the knife in her hand, obviously trying her best. She rode her horse slowly and led her people out of the camp and approached Dezhou City.
Zhu Gan stood at the top of the city and looked at the official army coming from afar. His heart was quiet and he was about to face King Lu. It seemed that he had taken the first step to fight for dominance in the world.
After getting off the city, he walked to everyone and said coldly: "Now this court is so corrupt, with natural disasters, beacons everywhere, and sorrow is everywhere. What are we going to do?"
The Red Army then shouted: "Fore overthrow him and build a new country, we can have enough food, and then we can let others have enough food."
The sound was messy, but gradually it gathered into a group. Zhu Gan closed his eyes and enjoyed the moment before the war. The whistling sound coming to his face was like a mountain collapse and a tsunami. This was the high morale.
Dong! Dongdong...
The drums on the top of the city became more and more rapid, echoing in the plains. The two sides formed a formation, and the horse also felt the depression of the atmosphere, and the horse's hooves kept digging the ground.
Zhu Gan took the lead and shouted: "To achieve success, it's time to kill!"
The Red Army will truly suffer from the first fire, either being disabled or reborn from the fire. The Red Army will run faster and faster, and with the resonance, the whole earth seems to be shaking.
The Tianxiong Army had insufficient horses and could not perform a large-scale charge, so Lu Xiangsheng set up a Qi Jiguang car formation and gave the Red Army a stick head-on, beating Zhu Gan dizzy. Looking at the Red Army who only cared about charging but could not fight back effectively, the soldiers kept knocking down the horse with the Folang machine cannon, Zhu Gan felt uncomfortable.
He shouted: "Do it!"
