Chapter 41: Pin Azig
Wu Xun of course understood, and he nodded one after another. Huang Qi put his hand on his shoulder and said, "Little monkey, I know you are not happy if you don't have any wars! But don't worry! I will definitely let you fight in the future! But you can't fight in this matter! You can't kill everyone!"
Wu Xun patted his chest and said, "I understand! A real man's words are as good as a horse!" As he said that, he left as fast as a gust of wind.
Huang Qi looked at his leaving figure and said, "The little monkey is just a little monkey, it's too urgent! Haha!" Then they began to act.
The horn sounded, the drums sounded, and the horse's hooves were filled with iron pedals. As long as the horse stepped onto the ground, it would make a sound.
Moreover, the cavalry all tied a long stick to the horse's butt, and there were naturally broken branches on the stick, which could sweep up dust during the marching of war horses, allowing the dust to cover the sky and the earth, and look like a large army is marching, so that they can deceive the prefectures and counties along the way.
Of course, they had to show off their photos in the nearest county town, so that the Tartars could see how powerful they were and how prosperous their military was. They just wanted to make people shout and not to attack the city, because they wanted to go south to capture Xiangyang.
At this moment, the magistrates established by the Qing Dynasty were scared. The magistrates of the Qing Dynasty were different from those of the Ming Dynasty. They knew that they would not report the information. If there was such a major matter, of course, they would send a quick horse to chase Ajige and let him report it.
At the same time, Liu Fangliang did not disappoint Yuan Zongdi and Huang Qi. He really led his army to attack, and even dared to provoke Yuan Zongdi in front of tens of thousands of Ajige's army with only two thousand people. He also defeated Ajige's vanguard's 3,000 troops. This was equivalent to pulling his teeth at the mouth of a tiger! As the Dashun Army, it has never won much victory against the Qing Dynasty. Even if it wins, it is a small victory. It is not worth mentioning!
Everyone in the Dashun Army was excited. Yuan Zongdi's troops were even more proud of the generals. They wanted to speak more in front of Li Zicheng, hoping that Li Zicheng could change his strategy and attack Ajige.
Like this, when Li Zicheng was unfavorable to attack Nanming, he heard that Ajige led his army north, so of course he wanted to seize Xiangyang! If he could seize the entire Huguang, he would no longer have to be suppressed in a small place in Wuchang.
The Dashun Army withdrew from the southern part of Huguang and turned north to oppress Ajige. This was of course the most beneficial to Zhang Biwu.
The best thing is that when Liu Fangliang sent troops to attack, the fast cavalry sent from Xiangyang also rushed towards Ajige to catch up with Ajige to report. Not only that, the prefectures along the way also saw Yuan Zongdi's army, and they also sent fast horses to report Ajige.
While Azig's vanguard army was moving, they were "bang bang", and the few war horses that were walking in the front were overturned by people and horses.
People were riding horses, and horses were exchanging. The war horses were kneeling on the ground with their front hooves and threw the people out.
"Stop! Everyone, stop!" At this moment, the cavalry all stopped. They also saw clearly that there was a roadblock in front. There was still paper on the roadblock, and it was clearly written that Xiangyang had been attacked.
Immediately, a lieutenant pulled out the wooden sign and handed it over to Ajige.
Ajige looked at the wooden sign, and he couldn't help but think about it, then handed it over to Obai and others for them to see, and then asked them what their opinions were.
Oboi said, "Prince, I think there are two reasons for this. One is that Xiangyang is really attacked and the situation is not good; the other is that the enemy's plan is that he wants to drag us to Xinye."
Oboi's opinion was immediately approved by many people, and they kept nodding, including Ajige's thoughts the same when he saw the wooden sign.
Ajige said: "Yes! But I think I should send someone to see the situation in Xiangyang, and the enemy troops that have been leading us around the circle also make me feel worried! Lei Xing and Li Qifeng have 30,000 people, and Zhang Biwu is the 8,000 people brought by Lu Xiangsheng, so they cannot beat Lei Xing and others! In addition, the ambushed soldiers said that it was obvious that these people should be Zhang Biwu's troops. They just pretended to be Dashun Army, and it seems that there were two thousand people! According to this, Zhang Biwu's 8,000 people were divided into a part of it! It would not be the opponent of Lei Xing and Li Qifeng! It would be fine if we stayed for a day or two!"
The others nodded, and they agreed. But Ajige still couldn't figure it out and said, "Everyone, I don't understand where Zhang Biwu came from. He actually sent an army to enter Shaanxi and attack Xi'an! How many people do this? The most hateful thing is Zhang Xianzhong. He still has to take the opportunity to seize Shaanxi! Alas! He Luo will not be able to send troops to help! It's a pity for the Fourteenth Brother's plan, and it's not successful!"
After saying this, everyone nodded, and they all thought Aziger was right.
It was while they were waiting for the news that an envoy from the prefecture and county came to report that they saw a huge army heading towards Xiangyang.
Not long after, the fast cavalry from Xiangyang also came, and reported that Liu Fangliang was attacking. Not only that, even Li Zicheng stopped the war with the Southern Ming Dynasty and instead came to compete for the northern part of Huguang.
At this moment, everyone was nervous and they focused on Ajig.
Ajig was dancing with a slim face, and he then said, "It's so hateful! Like this, what should we do? Should we return to the army to save Xiangyang and suppress Li Zicheng? Or should we continue to march?"
Shuo held up and said, "I think we can send an army to rescue Xiangyang. Of course, it is not easy for Li Zicheng to withdraw from the war with the Southern Ming Dynasty! He needs time! When Li Zicheng draws the troops, we can eliminate Zhang Biwu in Xinye! I think Li thief is a fatal problem, and Zhang Biwu is the trouble in his heart!"
Ajige lowered his head, he was thinking! He said: "No! I have to wait. I have to send an envoy to Xiangyang overnight to confirm the news there! After all, Xiangyang is the place where I am guarding! If Li Zicheng is allowed to enter Shaanxi again, then everything we have worked hard before will be in vain!"
Azige is the main general, and no one else dares to object. In addition, they also know that what Azige is saying is reasonable. Even if you wait for a day or two, Shinno will not have any surprises, let alone any objection.
Ajige waited for the news, so he delayed it for a day or two. This hit Yuan Zongdi and the others' thoughts, and their goal was achieved!
When Ajig is about to set sail for Shinno, what he will wait for will be news that will make him angry!
Yes! The battle situation in Shinno began to change!
When Lei Xing and Li Qifeng saw that the morale of the army was no longer stable, they wanted to stop siege, but there was no way to go and not violate the envoys sent by Ajige! In addition, they thought that their advantages were so obvious, so they ordered the siege.
When the Qing soldiers heard the order to attack, they were no longer as imposing as before. They looked at me and I looked at you. Even the charge was not as fast and steady as before, and became slow. The sound of the charge shouting became very weak!
When Zhang Biwu saw the Qing army at the top of the city, he smiled victoriously, so let them attack again! It was exhausted that Lu Xiangsheng's strange army must have arrived!
Everything you endure will be rewarded! Everything is as planned!
Zhao Dawei's loud voice opened: "Did you see it? Now the Qing soldiers are afraid of us! They all think they can't win this game!"
Then Zhao Dayong shouted to the charge of the Qing soldiers: "Everyone is Han, please stop serving the Hu people and kill each other! Have you seen it? Your attacks are useless, and Xi'an is almost captured by our army, and even Xiangyang is out of stock! Ajige will probably come to support him if he doesn't say anything..."
"Swoosh swish swish swish" arrow shot towards Zhao Dayong, just to make Zhao Dayong shut up. Zhao Dayong just raised his shield to block the arrow and asked him to shut up. How could this be possible?
He still shouted: "Brothers, I will persuade you that you really have no chance of winning! Don't die in the city of Xinye in vain! Return! Become under the command of Lord Zhang Zhentai, the general of Lingbao! Only in this way can you face the elders and fellow villagers, and face your ancestors after death! And glory and wealth are waiting for you! Let's return when you are lost!"
The shouting really worked. In the past, they were stimulated by wealth and their morale rose sharply, but now they know that they can't conquer Xinye. If they continue to conquer, they will only die in vain. Of course, they also listened to Zhao Dayong's words.
Zhao Dawei also shouted: "Brothers, come here and you will still be rich and prosperous! We, Lord Zhang Zhentai, have never owed military pay!"
Zhang Biwu's army was famous in the Ming army and was not owed military pay, because Zhang Biwu did not rely solely on the court to pay the salary. He governed his territory so rich that he suppressed the thieves and obtained a lot of wealth. Of course, the most important thing was that Zhang Biwu fought with the Qing army, and he obtained a lot of spoils from the Qing army.
The Qing army entered the Ming territory and continued to plunder, but was attacked by Zhang Biwu, so a lot of wealth fell into Zhang Biwu's hands. For this reason, Zhang Biwu was rich and of course he would not owed military pay.
There is also Zhang Biwu's wife Delis, who is a businessman, and he does not forget to do business. As long as Zhang Biwu can always make a profit in business, he will naturally be rich.
It is precisely for these reasons that some of the Qing army were Ming soldiers surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. They also knew that Zhang Biwu's army was treated very well. They believed the words of Zhao Dayong and Zhao Dawei, and those soldiers who were the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty would also be affected by the surrendered soldiers of the Ming army. Similarly, the fighting spirit of the Qing army was even lowered to a low point.
Zhang Biwu knew that he had to give the enemy a head-on blow now. The more he hit, the more afraid they would be.
Zhang Biwu shouted: "Attack! Attack with all your might!" He himself manipulated the cannons and shot out one after another.
