The principle is to follow your own path, develop independently and not hang out with teammates who are like pigs.
Even though Sun Chengzong's integrity and character were highly praised by history, Huang Yi was unwilling to be commanded by him.
Therefore, Huang Yi did not let Geng Zhanghua contact the main force of the Ming army attacking Luanzhou, but chose a good terrain to hide himself.
This place is nice, it's a large forest that's very cool, and it's also convenient for the cavalry that suddenly burst out to form their formation.
As for whether there would be any adverse consequences of not accepting Commander Sun's command, Huang Yi didn't care and didn't think too much about it.
He once studied the history of the late Ming Dynasty.
We know that the fundamental reason for the demise of the Ming Dynasty was also the most lethal reason: internal strife, party unity against different parties, man-made disasters, followed by natural disasters.
Another point that absolutely makes people speechless is that civilians and military officers who are willing to fight, dare to fight, capable of fighting and loyal to the court often do not survive or live long.
Zu Dashou lived a very good life, and his life could be described as extravagant and lustful.
He acted against the will and bargained with the court to preserve his strength, and even abandoned the emperor who urgently needed troops to defend the capital and fled back to Shanhaiguan.
What can Emperor Chongzhen do?
It's not just to appease him with official titles and make wishes, and to support him with Liao's salary!
However, what will be the fate of Zhao Lejiao and Man Gui who fought fiercely with Jiannu?
What are the results for Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting?
well! If a government fails, good people, people who want to do things and have the ability will not live long or survive, and they will definitely be over.
Huang Yi is currently weak and has no ability to threaten, "If the court does not change, then we will change the court."
We can only stumble forward and work hard to start a business and strengthen ourselves. There are no restrictions from the bureaucracy or land annexation. This is equivalent to a blank sheet of paper, which is most suitable for the birth of a brand new social system.
Huang Yi's soldiers were originally brought out and educated by himself. Each one of them will become a spark in a prairie fire. Of course, they will not be stupid enough to obey the orders of the court or the command of some civilian official.
Moreover, he was currently affiliated with Xuanda Governor's Biao Battalion. Since Governor Xuanda personally led the troops, he should of course obey the Governor's orders.
At this time, Geng Zhanghua had already written a Tang Bao, stating that he would not interfere with other soldiers and horses of King Qin, but would find his own opportunity to fight a good battle.
Geng Ruqi was most willing to have his own son and prospective son-in-law make great achievements again. Even if he offended anyone, he didn't care.
As long as you win the battle and behead the real slave, everything else won't matter.
Geng Zhanghua had encountered several groups of Tangma sent by the Superintendent in the past few days, and he openly refused the order to assemble in Luanzhou.
The reason was legitimate. He was only the vanguard officer of King Xuan Daqin's troops. The main force was still behind. He had to wait until the main force gathered before obeying the orders of Commander Sun.
Sun Chengzong knew the troops, and the focus of his work at this time was to stabilize the troops in Liaodong.
As long as Zu Dashou, He Kegang, Cao Wenzhao, Zhang Cunren and other Liaodong generals are willing to contribute, they can regain Luanzhou, Yongping, Qian'an, and Zunhua.
Sending Tang Ma to contact Geng Zhanghua was a good intention, because the emperor specifically ordered Sun Chengzong to give Geng Zhanghua a chance.
The delay in the arrival of Geng Zhanghua's Supervisor Biao Camp made Sun Chengzong trouble-free, and he no longer took care of Xuan's army.
In fact, Sun Chengzong didn't expect the soldiers and horses at the other battalions to make a difference. He felt that except for Guan Ning's army, the others were just making up the numbers.
Everything was ready, and Governor Sun finally issued the order to attack the city.
The situation continued to develop as it did in history. Not long after the Ming army began to attack Luanzhou, the Jin army could not withstand it and fled.
Most of the people who originally escaped came out with gold and silver treasures.
Now, there is no such good thing.
Zhang Dong and Huang Dayong, together with more than a dozen warriors with outstanding riding skills, had been hiding on a hillside not far from Luanzhou City and peeping.
They didn't bring binoculars, but Zhang Dong carried Huang Yi's minigun, so he could observe from a distance with a scope.
Therefore, the main force of Jiannu was discovered just after they withdrew from the North City Gate, which was not blocked by the Ming army.
However, the generals of the Ming army had their own agendas, and neither the commander-in-chief nor the generals wanted to undermine the armored servants, nor did they want to confront the enemy head-on.
Therefore, no troops were willing to give the retreating Jiannu a head-on attack, and were prepared to just watch the enemy walk away.
The Hou Jin army burned, killed, and looted in the capital for more than half a year, committing all kinds of evil.
The Ming army fighting at home could not annihilate any of the post-Jin army when they had the decisive advantage, which shows how unbearable it was.
With big gains and little losses, of course the Jiannu slaves fattened up the courage of thieves, and of course they would enter the country again and again to plunder the Ming Dynasty.
It's a pity that Huang Yi's strength cannot completely annihilate the Hou Jin army that retreated from Luanzhou, so he can only try to kill a few more.
The following story is relatively simple.
The 1,400 men and horses waiting for work will attack the hundreds of defeated Jin troops. Not all of these Hou Jin troops are real slaves. A small half of the horsemen, about three to four hundred, are Tatars from the left and right sides of Mongolia.
Knowing that a battle was about to take place, at least half of Geng Zhanghua's men felt thirsty, a little distracted, and some of the overly nervous soldiers were actually trembling.
The reason is very simple. Most of the Ming army has heard self-praising words such as "the Jurchens are less than ten thousand, and they are invincible".
The Hou Jin Army was simply believed to be invincible by the myth.
Among Geng Zhanghua's cavalry, only Geng Qi, Liu Chuanzong, and Yang Shihu fought against the Hou Jin Army. About 10% of the rest may have fought against the Tatars.
Therefore, when it was learned that the Jin army that was about to attack was the main garrison that had withdrawn from Luanzhou, and its number exceeded 800, the vast majority of the Ming army's cavalry were uneasy.
Huang Yi's subordinates were all calm, while Huang Dazhi, Huang Dapeng, Bi Daxi, etc. were all impatient.
Nervousness does not necessarily mean fear of fighting, it may just be instinct.
Huang Yi did not talk about the truth, but was prepared to use practical actions to prove that the Ming army was not bad and that the slaves were actually paper tigers.
The number of the Hou Jin army that withdrew was no less than 800, plus hundreds of coated slaves and a large number of Han civilians brought in, the number was probably no less than 4,000.
There are not only cattle, horses and carts, but also mules and donkeys loaded with goods.
In wars in the cold weapon age, whether the general is brave or not plays a decisive role.
When Huang Yi deployed the mission, he did not let Geng Zhanghua's men take the lead in the attack, but ordered them to follow his own troops to cover up the attack.
and announced that the sound of gunshots was the order for all to attack.
Geng Zhanghua had already turned a deaf ear to his father's advice.
He wore the same helmet and armor, and was sweating profusely. There was nothing he could do, the weather was too hot, and it was really uncomfortable to wear three layers of armor.
But armor can save lives and must be endured.
Geng Zhanghua quietly waited for Huang Yi to issue orders with his sword in hand. Of course, his subordinates were even more united.
People basically have the most basic judgment. Huang Yi announced that he would personally lead his direct line to launch the first wave of attacks, which was enough to win the trust of a thousand Xuan cavalry.
No one among them was giggling, and a few warriors even shouted that they were willing to die for Lord Huang, and then everyone burst out with a roar of "Kill the slave!"
