Two months ago, when the Red Coat Army signed a large-scale army for the last time, Yang An'er really couldn't get enough red cloth, so he no longer distributed red coats and only gave each person a piece of red cloth. This soldier must have been at that time
Joined the Red Coat Army.
He used that piece of red cloth to bandage the wound on his shoulder, and there were black blood stains on the ocher cloth.
Hearing his question, an old soldier on the side said: "That's a whistle. It's the whistle on the arrow shaft. It's used by the Jurchens to summon their companions... The Jurchens have added new troops to the battlefield...
…”
When the old pawn slowly explained, Yang Miaozhen lowered his head, covered his face with his hands, and rubbed his cheeks.
She said: "That is not a Jurchen."
Her voice came out from the gap in the palm of her hand, a bit dull: "The one who made the sound is from the command of Li Ting, the general of the Ding Navy. The one who is about to enter the battlefield should be the command of Qiu Huiluo, another general of the Ding Navy. These two
People are all Han'er... and their leaders, the Shandong Xuanfu envoy appointed by Emperor Gou of the Jin Dynasty, and Guo Ning, the Dinghai Jiedushi envoy, are also Han'er. But these people are all from the imperial defense army in northern Xinjiang.
I’m used to the Jurchens’ behavior.”
The young soldier was a little confused: "Is it Han'er again?"
He seemed to be asking himself or others.
After Yang Miaozhen said this, he stopped continuing and just rubbed his face repeatedly, as if to cheer up.
When she put down her hands, she took a deep breath and seemed to be more energetic. However, even if the firelight flashed across her face, the red color of the fire could not cover up her pale and tired face.
"Fourth Lady, are you okay?" the old soldier asked cautiously.
"I'm fine."
Although Yang Miaozhen is a member of the female class, she was the real supporter of military force when Yang An'er started her career, and she is very famous. In the past few years, although she has not actually participated in military affairs, many ordinary soldiers have heard about it through word of mouth.
, the legendary story about the Fourth Lady.
When Yang An'er failed, the lower-level soldiers of the Red Coat Army subconsciously looked for new sustenance. Most of them pinned their hopes on the legendary Fourth Lady.
Therefore, when Yang Miaozhen carried Yang An'er's body and fought her way back to Moqi Mountain in Juzhou from hundreds of rebel armies, scattered soldiers continued to gather under her banner along the way. Some people even secretly said that the Fourth Lady was more powerful than Marshal Yang.
Even more powerful, he will definitely be able to lead his soldiers to kill all the hateful Jurchens.
At this moment, many of the soldiers surrounding Yang Miaozhen had eyes with special admiration, as if they were looking at an otherworldly figure or an omnipotent god.
Yang Miaozhen herself was very sober.
She knew that the situation was worse than these soldiers imagined, but she herself did not have any outstanding talents.
She is just a young woman who is good at pear blossom marksmanship. In this situation, what is the use of pear blossom marksmanship?
No matter how good your marksmanship is, you can only deal with one or two enemies at a time, or at most five. If you go up higher, you have to try your luck to see whether you live or die. But the Red Coat Army faces so many enemies.
Those old enemies are approaching Juzhou and Mizhou with all their teeth and claws. After the death of my brother, the original partners and allies began to become new enemies.
Half a year ago, Yang An'er led thousands of his disciples to initiate the army. He climbed up and shouted, and hundreds of thousands of followers followed. Many heroes rejoiced and gathered under the banner of the Red Coat Army from all directions. Following Yang An'er's banner, they swept across Shandong and captured two areas.
Thousands of miles of foundation. What’s the result?
All that has been ruined.
Even Juzhou and Mizhou, the last base areas, are already crumbling.
The Dinghai navy force north of Mizhou has been continuously transporting military supplies to Juzhou in the past six months, and has almost become a half ally of the Red Coat Army. But Yang Miaozhen now knows that Guo Ning, the leader of the Dinghai navy, has long been
He foresaw this failure and most likely participated in creating Yang An'er's failure.
He is the most vicious enemy.
Because this enemy is close at hand and will come the fastest. His subordinates, those ferocious dogs, have already rushed into Mizhou.
In this kind of world, it is common for people to plot against each other, not to mention forces like the Red Coat Army and Ding Haijun. Yang An'er also plotted against Guo Ning. So Yang Miaozhen was not angry about this.
What makes her angry is that Guo Ning obviously has such talent and ability, but he has been acting as a lackey of the Jurchens. He insists on hanging out with those savages who have taken over the Central Plains. At this time, he turns to the red coat
The army takes action.
She couldn't figure it out, what on earth was he planning?
Just forget it if you can't figure it out.
The situation is dangerous, and Ding Haijun is just one of many ferocious enemies. At this time, what is needed is not to think too much, but to immediately pick up the pear gun in his hand and strike hard at the enemy.
This was all she could do.
Yang Miaozhen raised her head and shouted to the surrounding soldiers: "My brother is sorry for you!"
Her somewhat sharp voice echoed under the city wall in the night.
"He promised to make the soldiers rich and wealthy, but he failed to do so. In the past few days, the soldiers died in large numbers in battle, and no one saw the wealth. He promised to make the common people safe.
He failed to do it. In the territory under the jurisdiction of the Red Coat Army, the lives of the people were still very difficult, and the harvest this autumn might not be good. He promised that everyone would no longer be bullied by the Jurchens, and he did not
Do it! He led his army to Henan and fought against the Jin army. As a result, he was defeated and died!"
Everyone was talking in low voices, and the crowd was buzzing with excitement.
Amid the restlessness, Yang Miaozhen continued to shout: "Your Marshal Yang, my brother Yang An'er is dead! He has not done anything he promised, but now, Ding Haijun has come from the north to attack Yao outside the city.
The general's camp! The Jin army on Henan Road also came from the west and has defeated Huo Yi in Pizhou! The Jin army will continue to advance. All of us will have no wealth and no peace. We must either become slaves of the Jurchens
, or you will die!"
In the past few days, Liu Quan, Guo Yao'er and others tried their best to comfort the soldiers and ease their tension and fear, but Yang Miaozhen told the truth completely.
Such truth instantly broke the illusory comfort that many soldiers gave themselves, and emotions of panic and fear quickly began to spread among the crowd. Even in the darkness in the corner of the wall, low sobbing began to be heard.
Yang Miaozhen stretched out his hand, pulled out a spear from behind, and held it tightly in his hand.
She wanted to shout and ask, but her throat suddenly hurt and her voice became hoarse: "So, is there anyone who doesn't want to be a slave? Is there anyone who doesn't want to die?"
Her voice was buried in the panicked words of many people, and probably no one in the distance heard her.
Only the veteran who explained Mingdi before smiled and said: "Haha, I just don't want to be a dog for the Jurchens, and I don't want to die either."
"I'm not afraid of death!" Next to the old soldier, a young soldier with his shoulder wrapped in red cloth shouted, and then said in frustration: "But I don't want to die either. If I can still live without being a dog for the Jurchens, that's the best thing to do.
alright."
At some point, the fighting in the Lushui military camp in the east of Zhucheng became more and more intense. The rumbling sounds of people running and screaming could not be heard without end. It should be that another force of the Ding Navy responded to the call and entered the battlefield.
Yang Miaozhen raised the spear with one hand and pointed at the soldiers a little further away: "Where are you guys?"
While Yang Miaozhen was slowly questioning the soldiers, hundreds of miles away from her, Guo Ning was boarding the North City of Yidu and looking at the South City.
At that time, Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty conquered Murong Chao, pacified the city, and appointed Yang Muzhi as the governor of Qingzhou. Yangmuzhi built the city to the north of Yangshui, named Dongyang City, and later built the city to the south of Yangshui, named Nanyang City.
.The north and south cities are long from east to west and narrow from north to south. The two cities face each other and hold water like a crescent moon.
During the Jingkang period, the Jin army went south, and the North City was burned down by fire, leaving only broken walls and ruins. The Yidu Mansion was moved to the Nancheng.
In recent months, Li Quan has been moving people from Yidu to Binzhou. There should not be many guards and strong men in the city. Guo Ning and others felt that it would not be difficult to capture the city.
But at this time, Guo Ning stood on the ruins of the tallest tower in the North City, looking out and listening to Guo Zhongyuan's report. However, the content of the report could not make people happy.
"We attacked the city three times today and counted the soldiers. We suffered more than 200 casualties while filling the trenches, and another 300 casualties when we climbed up the ladder. The enemy was protected by city walls and had a strong will to fight. A rough estimate shows that the casualties were much less than ours."
In Guo Ning's sight, there was a continuous pool of blood in front of the gate of Yidu City. Many of the abandoned corpses and broken arms and limbs of the attacking soldiers were scattered among the pool of blood, showing patches of gray under the moonlight.
Guo Zhongyuan looked at Guo Ning's expression and continued: "Jie Shuai, I feel... something is wrong."
There are no book reviews to read during the conference, I’m not used to it...
