In the middle of the night, the 1,000th and 2,000th households of Nanhaiwei quietly left the city. The 1,000th household cut off the retreat of Chen Qixiu's tribe, while the 2,000th household stood in front of the rogue army's formation.
When the light gradually brightened and people could gradually be seen, Chen Qixiu's simple camp became panicked almost instantly.
First, hundreds of people gathered and attacked the 2,000th household in front of them. As expected, the 2,000th household fired shots and killed them on the spot.
They didn't even have a chance to approach the formation of the 2,000th household. They just threw dozens of corpses in front of the formation, and then shrank back one by one. No matter how hard the bandit leaders around them drove them away, they were unwilling to do so.
Step forward and die.
Immediately afterwards, hundreds of people behind the bandit army quietly left the group and ran towards the way they came. These hundreds of people were more fierce than the people who attacked the second thousand households. Even the first person who was blocked from the road
A thousand households of musketeers knocked down a large number of them, but they still felt that they could rush into the ranks of the officers and soldiers and fight hand-to-hand with them.
As a last resort, the firearms soldiers of the 1,000th House opened up their firepower and beat hundreds of people to pieces. After the battle was over, except for a dozen bandits who were frightened and went crazy on the battlefield, almost no one could be seen anymore.
A living person.
What happened next was very simple. The battle formation of the 2,000th household at the gate of the city took an impact posture. As soon as they started to move, the bandits surrendered. What’s interesting is that the bandits were afraid
The officers and soldiers thought they were pretending to surrender, so several hundred people uniformly shouted "We surrender" and walked out with bare hands.
The battle report was delivered to Jiang Wan while he was having breakfast. Unlike his subordinates who had been busy all night, Jiang Wan went to bed without hesitation after the order was delivered to Feng Wanli and Xu Jian.
, the city is in danger of heavy troops, and there is a group of thieves outside the opponent. He feels that if he stays up all night waiting for the outcome of the battle, he will look down upon these thieves too much.
However, even so, he was still stunned for a moment when he saw the battle report.
"With so little beating, I thought it would take a few beatings!" He shook his head, quite surprised.
The person who sent the battle report was still Mei Xiaofei. Now he was very sure that he was afraid that he would not win the battle.
"It is said that the thieves killed by Feng Qianhu over there were all Chen Qixiu and his henchmen. Now the No. 1 Thousand Household is looking for Chen Qixiu's body. Feng Qianhu is worried that the guy escaped and let his military exploits go to waste."
Shrunk by half!”
"Yes!" Jiang Wan nodded, indicating that he understood the matter.
"Also, Xu Qianhu sent people to ask what to do with the prisoners of these bandits. They are now counting the number of prisoners. However, according to previous estimates, there should be no less than two thousand prisoners!"
Mei Xiaofei looked hesitant. In fact, Xu Jian's original words were not "What to do with these prisoners?" but asked Jiang Wan whether to keep these prisoners or not!
"Um?"
Jiang Wan's face froze slightly. He noticed the hesitation in Mei Xiaofei's words: "He came to ask me about this kind of thing?"
"Xu Qianhu didn't know whether these prisoners should be kept. He said that these bandits didn't carry military rations. Their last meal was already eaten last night. If we keep them, we have to feed them!"
"Of course I have to keep it!" Jiang Wan glanced at Jiang Yanran, who was slowly drinking porridge beside her: "As long as you don't starve to death!"
"Let Xu Qianhu divide the prisoners into teams of ten. If one person escapes, kill the whole team; if one person resists, kill the whole team!" Jiang Yanran said unhurriedly: "I don't know what our Nanhai Guards do, but
, this is what thieves do when they threaten good people!"
"Just do it like this!" Jiang Wan nodded: "I still have use for these prisoners, don't kill them randomly, just stay where they are and take care of them!"
Mei Xiaofei left in a hurry, and Jiang Wan put down the chopsticks in his hand and became thoughtful.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yanran asked.
"The situation has changed!" Jiang Wan shook her head: "It's a good thing, but it's also not easy to do!"
"Compassion doesn't control soldiers, why don't you start to pity these thieves now!" Jiang Yanran curled her lips: "Also, I call you brother so easily, is it difficult for you to call me sister, old man?
It’s sister Yanran, sister Yanran, you don’t know how strange Sister Fuyao looked at me when you called me that!”
"I'm not used to your way of speaking. Do you have to mix two things into one sentence?" Jiang Wan glanced at her and answered her question: "Let me get used to it first. Calling a girl is a bit disgusting.
, calling her Yanran is too close, this name is just right, sister Yanran!"
"Besides, I don't pity these bandits!" Jiang Wan said: "Originally, I planned to annihilate these bandits under Wu Sangui under Yan'an City. However, Chen Qixiu's actions disrupted my plan. This happened later.
The bandit army may not be like him and come directly to Ansai instead of Yan'an!"
"Who said this small and broken county town looks like a weak persimmon? It is not a wise thing to go to Yan'an Prefecture and get bloody. The city wall alone is enough for them to climb, not to mention that it is where the Nanhai Guards are stationed.
The lair!”
Jiang Yanran smiled and said: "If I were the bandit leader, I wouldn't lead people to attack Yan'an Mansion directly, unless someone has tried it and can fight!"
"So, we have to change the plan!" Jiang Wan said: "You can think of it, and the bandits can also think of it. Well, the prisoners outside the city should not only be kept, but they can also be of great use!"
"Let me guess?" Jiang Yanran smiled slightly: "You want to move the battlefield here, but your arrangement in Yan'an Mansion will not be of much use!"
"It doesn't matter, the main force is here!" Jiang Wan nodded, "After dinner, you go to Xu Jian and ask him to pick among the prisoners to see if there are fathers, sons and brothers among the bandits. If so, find a few.
Such a father comes out and asks them to report back to Luochuan, saying that Chen Qixiu has surrounded Ansai and will defeat it soon, and tells the subsequent troops to go directly to Yan'an Mansion!"
"Is this okay?"
"Of course, you just said that no one will touch Yan'an Prefecture's strong bones. Now Chen Qixiu on Ansai's side is saying that he is about to take it. Those who come from behind must be coming directly here. This is comparable to saying that Chen Qixiu was captured.
It would be much more convincing if the officers and soldiers gathered around and asked them to come to the rescue!"
"No, I mean, if you want to choose a father, son and brother from among the bandits, why should you choose the father to report the news? Wouldn't the son be young and strong and run faster?"
Jiang Wan glanced at her slightly and smiled: "You don't understand this. Even if we are blood relatives, if you know that if you don't come back, the other person will die, I will come back nine times out of ten.
As for sons, it’s hard to say, this is human nature!”
Jiang Yanran chewed on his words and nodded thoughtfully.
