Now that the prisoner has been captured, of course he must be interrogated, and Geng Zhanghua is happy to do this work himself.
It is of great benefit to have three prisoners. Their confessions can be verified by each other.
Facts have proved that Jiannu is really a coward who bullies the weak and is afraid of the strong. They didn't torture them very much. They just confessed everything like beans poured out of a bamboo tube.
Geng Zhanghua concluded that the total military strength of Jiannu was basically consistent with Huang Yi's estimate.
The Hou Jin army had no intention of holding on to the occupied city and was really ready to flee at any time.
Of course, he had to report the news to Geng Ruqi in time, and immediately arranged for a small bannerman to escort the three prisoners and set off with four heads of slaves.
Here is another little episode.
At this time, morale was high, and Geng Zhanghua's subordinates were shouting "Wan Sheng!" over and over again.
That's how people are!
Geng Zhanghua announced in a high profile that after the battle, all participating soldiers would receive twenty taels of silver.
However, the border troops of Xuan Dynasty were repeatedly owed wages. When trouble broke out, the civilian officials and military generals always said that they would pay their wages immediately. The result was that today will be followed by tomorrow, and there will be so many tomorrows.
Therefore, the soldiers only believed Geng Zhanghua's promise tentatively. The reason why no one was sarcastic was because Geng Zhanghua shared the joys and sorrows with the soldiers during this period and was recognized.
Approving Geng Zhanghua does not mean that he believes that Geng Zhanghua can give out tens of thousands of taels of snowflakes as a reward.
But tonight, all the soldiers were confident of getting the reward.
That's because the evil Huang Yi asked Zhang Dong and Huang Dazhi to spread out and capture them for Geng Zhanghua's soldiers to watch.
The purpose of establishing slaves to enter the customs was to rob.
Most of the slaves carried the most valuable items with them, so they captured a lot of money.
Not only were more than 400 taels of silver found in Jiannu's robe, but also dozens of taels of gold, some pearl agate, and a pair of crystal clear jade bracelets were found from the arms of the white-armored soldier who was shot...
Not counting armor, weapons, and horses, the value of the goods obtained by defeating seven Jiannu was close to two thousand taels of silver.
What if we defeat seventy, one hundred and seventy or even more?
The gold and silver treasures captured were enough to reward all the soldiers who participated in the war.
Therefore, at this time, the soldiers in the camp were all high-spirited and unanimously requested to accompany Huang Yi to plot to establish slaves. They all rushed to express their determination to obey orders and obey orders.
They were full of confidence in defeating the Jiannu, and no one wanted to leave at this time. Everyone wanted to join the battle and get twenty taels of snowflake silver as a reward.
The ten cavalrymen who were dispatched felt as if they were mourning for their heirs. They dared not say anything with their mouths and were unwilling to do so in their hearts.
Military orders are child's play, how can we be picky and picky?
In the end, Yang Shihu was quick-thinking. He said something to the flag officer leading the team, and the flag officer suddenly became happy.
What did he say?
Of course, I am reminding the flag officer that there are too many civilian and military generals accompanying the army. If you send prisoners and deliver good news at this time, you will definitely be rewarded generously!
Of course, the vanguard must keep in touch with the main force, and the commanders will basically know their positions along the way.
There is no possibility of not finding the main force.
Geng Ruqi was on a forced march at this time. He was a second-ranked Jinshi, and of course he had the ability to think. He felt that Huang Yi's analysis was reasonable, and he was worried that he would not be able to catch up and was busy in vain.
In summer, when the days are long and the nights are short, more than 3,000 horses and horses get up early and take the night. The daily march distance is far more than fifty miles, reaching nearly seventy miles.
At this time, they were less than 300 miles away from the campsite of Huang Yi and Geng Zhanghua.
The next night, Lao Geng, who was a little irritated because he was worried about not being able to catch up, became happy.
This was of course the result of him seeing Zhan Huo interrogating the prisoners in person.
He wanted to see Huang Yi with his own eyes even more, and secretly hated Huang Yi for his weird temper.
Then I thought about it, aren’t really capable people arrogant and have a unique temperament?
Haha, I have a big belly and can accommodate myself, but I can do what I want in front of me. I am thirsty for talents, so I still want to do great things!
Isn't he just a young man with a temper? I can tolerate him!
The good news has been sent to the capital. Geng Ruqi wrote it himself and wrote a few hundred words eloquently, announcing that the army had a small victory and a small gain. The guerrilla general Geng Zhanghua led his troops to kill the white-armored soldiers and captured the real slave...
Next, Geng Ruqi's Chinese army tent was bustling with activity.
It was when General Xuanda saw the beheadings and captures that he felt that an opportunity to make a great contribution was at hand, so he all came to ask for a fight.
They asked their servants to rush to the front to join forces with the vanguard officers and strive to expand the results of the battle.
This is not allowed. Geng Ruqi is as eager to rush to join his son. If these generals are allowed to take away their servants, only Geng Da and a dozen armored servants will be left here.
Not only will safety not be guaranteed, but the speed of the subsequent march will also be affected.
The morale of the army was ready. Geng Ruxi issued an order that the entire army would be on the road at the fourth watch tomorrow. There was no need to worry about the stragglers and they would strive to march eighty miles.
No one in the Xuan Army camp complained about being tired. Everyone knew that the battle was certain to be won, and they all wanted to get to the battlefield earlier to gain some credit...
Huang Yi took the time to explore the surrounding area and quickly figured out the location.
Two days later, Huang Yi and Geng Zhanghua's cavalry quietly approached and lurked in the mountainous area about fifty miles away from Luanzhou. At the foot of the mountain was the official road from Luanzhou to Yongping Prefecture.
At this time, Geng Zhanghua was relaxed and happy, simply passionate.
Because Huang Yi personally led the reconnaissance cavalry to conduct a dragnet investigation, he discovered small groups of Houjin troops seven times in total, successfully chased and intercepted them three times, and personally killed a white-armored soldier and a vest.
He didn't get a chance to kill, so he always used a minigun to kill him, and he couldn't hack the slaves to death face to face.
Zhi, Yong, Shuang, Quan, Peng, Bi Daxi, etc. captured two infantrymen and one Yu Ding, and killed seventeen people. Except for three Yu Ding, the rest were all serious soldiers with waist cards.
The success of capturing and eliminating twenty-two real slaves has been achieved. Master Xuan's troops are destined not to be in vain!
Even though he was exhausted from riding horses every day, Geng Ruqi still lived a comfortable life. He wrote another good news and sent it to the capital. The last time he was beheading and capturing several Jian slaves, this time he was beheading a fifteenth-level real slave.
Geng Ruqi also wrote a private message to Geng Zhanghua, telling him not to rush to the front and asking him to remind Huang Yi to pay attention to safety and to be useful to the court to solve problems...
Of course Huang Yi wanted to understand the situation of the battle. When he personally led the reconnaissance cavalry to plot against the Jin army's messenger and scout horse, he approached Luanzhou and saw the Ming army's position surrounding three Jue one.
This shows how miserable the Ming army was. The commander-in-chief probably had the mentality of not seeking merit but seeking no faults.
Tens of thousands of troops besieged Luanzhou, and there were hundreds of cannons of various kinds. The total number of Hou Jin troops stationed in Luanzhou was only two to three thousand.
The Ming army, with a total number of more than ten times, did not plan to surround and annihilate them, leaving a way of escape for these executioners whose hands were stained with blood.
