When the news came that the Jurchen soldiers and horses had once again broken through the barrier and entered Zhili, north of the Kou, the whole court was filled with voices shouting and killing the prince.
As Wang Ziteng, who was left behind in Shuntian Prefecture, he was already responsible for resisting the Jurchen invaders.
This time not only failed to hold the pass to allow the Jurchen troops to enter the pass, but they also hid in Shuntianfu City and trembled, sitting and watching the Jurchens ravage Beizhili.
Such a waste, who else can be impeached if not him?
Of course, Lin Ruhai's contribution to this was naturally indispensable.
Concubine Xian De finally gave birth to a dragon son, who became the emperor just after birth.
But everyone in the court knew that this emperor had no future.
If Li Yunze had a kinder heart, he might not be able to become a Shanyang Gong in the future.
If Taishi Jia is ruthless, the outcome will definitely be suicide in various ways. If you look through history books, there are countless examples.
Lin Ruhai was also anxious and wanted to get rid of Wang Xifeng's external support as soon as possible to pave the way for her good daughter.
After all, Li Yunze couldn't wait for the reorganization training of the Beijing camp to be completed before he would lead his troops to exterminate the Jurchens.
When he comes back, he will have to wear a yellow robe from Baqiaoyi!
If Wang Xifeng is not pushed out as soon as possible, his job as the chief minister of the cabinet, Lin Ruhai, will be in vain.
Originally, Li Yunze planned to go out for the expedition after completing the training in the Beijing camp, but the disaster on the Jurchen side was even worse than that here in Dazhou, and he could no longer survive and had no choice but to go south to plunder.
Li Yunze was not the emperor or nobleman of the Great Zhou Dynasty, how could he watch the people being ravaged and remain indifferent.
There is no need to say that the main force of the Beijing camp was mobilized to pull out of the pass and go straight to Beizhili.
He even gave up on Enke taking the exam.
Marching all the way to Beizhili, I saw human tragedies everywhere.
White bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crow for thousands of miles. This is the current situation of Beizhili after being ravaged by the Jurchens.
Even a person with thick nerves like Xue Pan can detect the slightest chill emanating from Li Yunze's body.
He even received twenty lashes from Li Yunze because he stepped with his left foot first when entering the tent.
Fortunately, it's only this time.
Li Yunze was angry, but he didn't vent his anger on his own people.
After a brief moment of venting, he forcibly calmed down, waiting to kill all the Jurchens who had invaded.
All the way to Shuntian Mansion, Li Yunze met Wang Ziteng here.
It was hard to imagine that the old man with a slovenly beard and dull eyes in front of him was Wang Ziteng, who was full of aura before.
"Tell me." Li Yunze, wearing armor and stomach, sat down directly in front of Wang Ziteng, "What happened."
"I trusted the wrong person." Wang Ziteng smiled bitterly. "I used the person I trusted most to guard the gate. Unexpectedly, he betrayed me and opened the gate to let the Jurchens in."
Li Yunze's expression remained unchanged, "You mean Wang Ren?"
"Yes." Wang Ziteng's hands were shaking. "I wanted him to gain military merit, but I didn't expect..."
I didn't expect that my son would be so useless that he would trick the whole family.
Even if you can't fight, you can still run away. As long as you can run away, there are ways to clear your name.
But this traitor immediately surrendered, and the Wang family was deceived by him.
"Are there any soldiers in Shuntian Mansion?" Li Yunze asked again, "Why don't you go out to fight and watch the people fall into the hands of the bandits?"... "They are all defeated soldiers!" Wang Ziteng became excited, "If you can defend Shuntian Mansion City, then It’s already not easy, how can we still leave the city to fight!”
Li Yunze laughed, very loudly.
After laughing, he simply stood up and said, "Kill yourself and save some dignity for yourself."
Looking at Li Yunze's leaving figure, Wang Ziteng reached out and wanted to beg, but the words could not come out.
After losing his troops and losing his territory, his son surrendered to the city.
Being able to save one's dignity is already giving face, so how can one expect to survive?
"Where are the Tartars?" After coming out, Li Yunze only asked this question.
"Moving towards Gubeikou."
Li Yunze was slightly startled by these words, "We've been walking all the way here for more than a month, and they haven't even left the border yet?"
Jia Ping continued to explain, "The Tartars captured hundreds of thousands of people and captured countless livestock and supplies, so the march was slow. At this time, they were still two hundred miles away from Gubeikou."
"ha."
Li Yunze said happily, "If you are not greedy enough, then don't leave."
"Xue Pan." He directly named the first general under his command, "I will give you five thousand elites, one man and two horses, to go straight to Gubeikou. Take this pass and seal the exit for the Tartars to escape."
This kind of thing must be carefully considered when changing people. After all, not many people are as proficient in surprise attacks as Huo Qubing.
Once you fail, it will not be a matter of ruining your reputation, but your life will be at risk.
Unexpectedly, Xue Pan was trembling with excitement, "General, I have been waiting for this day for a long time!"
Chasing Wei Huo in the front and Han Yue in the back is Xue Pan's biggest ideal in life.
In the past, I could only be a vanguard, but now I have the opportunity to lead troops and do big things.
"Go ahead." Li Yunze waved his hand calmly, "When it's done, you'll be the first to do it."
It wasn't that Li Yunze didn't want to carry out a surprise attack on his own, but that no one but himself could command an army of tens of thousands.
A few days later, the army led by Li Yunze caught up with the invading Tartars.
He was even at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, because the Tartars not only sent out all their troops, but also held a large number of grassland herders hostage.
Li Yunze urgently pulled up cheap barbed wire, which not only stretched across the battlefield, but also stretched several layers.
Afterwards, carts were connected together as bunkers, and tens of thousands of firecrackers stepped forward to fight.
The Tartars were extremely arrogant, and their successive victories made them look down upon Zhou's soldiers and horses. The army swarmed forward and tried to destroy the army with cavalry.
Then, they are taught how to be human by modern technology.
The swarming cavalry hit the barbed wire fence, and they were instantly overturned.
Although barbed wire is very cheap, it is extremely useful against cavalry charges.
The fire cannon soldiers opened fire, and the new fire cannons with long range and high power penetrated the bodies of the Tartars without mercy, knocking them to the ground in rows.
The Tartars tried to take advantage of the cavalry to detour and harass, but they underestimated the range and accuracy of the new fire cannons. Before they could enter the cavalry shooting range, they were knocked down together with their horses.
After resisting the three attacks of the Tartars and beating them with fear, Li Yunze urged the fire gun soldiers to advance.
Carrying the quilt and spreading it on the barbed wire fence, the passage came out.
The Tartars in the distance were really regretful when they saw this scene. If they had known it was so simple, they wouldn't have suffered such tragic losses. .... Now they have been beaten to the point of losing their morale and cannot stand up.
The firecrackers are in front, and the soldiers are behind.
Tens of thousands of troops pressed forward in darkness, and without any surprise, the Tartars mustered up their last courage and charged again.
There was no retreat because their main camp was more than ten miles behind them.
All the luggage and loot are in the camp. If they really escape, let alone how they will survive this winter, they won’t even have enough food to eat back home.
They felt that without the obstruction of the barbed wire, as long as the cavalry could get close to the fire rifle soldiers, those timid and cowardly Southerners would definitely flee, and then they would be able to happily pursue and kill them.
"Times have changed." Li Yunze on horseback laughed when he saw this scene. "Barbed wire and firearms have come out. The only thing you can do is be good at singing and dancing."
Although the training is insufficient, there is a team behind to supervise the battle, and each Tartar in front has a reward of fifty taels of silver.
Under such spurring and stimulation, the fire gun soldiers used intensive, almost continuous shooting to completely defeat the Tartars' final charge.
Although there are no machine guns, the quality of the firecrackers that can be made with modern technology has even exceeded the level of the Baliqiao period.
As long as the people using them are not too bad, there is no difficulty in dealing with these cold weapon armies.
The rest of the matter is simple, just press all the way to the Tartar camp.
Arriving at the camp, he captured the Tartar baggage and rescued the captured people.
But I also saw scenes of human tragedy here.
In the eyes of the Tartars, the southerners are just cattle, and naturally there is no mercy or sympathy at all.
The captured people were very miserable.
"How many prisoners have been captured?" Li Yunze asked calmly with an expressionless face.
"About ten thousand." Jia Ping reported in a low voice, "All the Tartars in the brigade ran towards Gubeikou."
After a moment of silence, Li Yunze stood up and left, "Let them dig a hole, a big hole."
Jia Ping trembled and didn't dare to ask what she did after digging the hole, because she knew the result without saying anything.
At the same time, Xue Pan, who had taken a detour, had also arrived outside Gubeikou.
Xue Pan, a reckless man who has always been simple-minded, actually became smart at this time.
He selected a group of elite soldiers, changed their clothes and pretended to be Tartars, and swaggered close to the city gate, and actually captured it very smoothly.
There are no Tartars here in Gubeikou, they are all rushing south to plunder.
The only ones left behind were the demoralized surrender troops under Wang Ren. It was precisely because of this that when the fake sergeants approached, no one came forward to question them.
"Brothers of the Xue family!"
When Wang Ren was captured alive, he was extremely drunk.
However, after a severe beating, he was so frightened that he came to his senses.
Seeing Xue Pan appear in front of him, Wang Ren knelt down like a dog and hugged Xue Pan's legs, begging, "We are relatives, your mother is my aunt! Please spare my life~~~"
"hey-hey."
Xue Pan, the hammer tyrant, didn't say anything at all. He smiled strangely and took off the melon hammer, raised it high and then dropped it heavily.
Xue Pan, who was splashed all over, didn't care. He waved the melon hammer in his hand and shouted, "Take care of the city gates. Not a single Tartar is allowed to pass!"
A few days later, when Li Yunze led an army to approach Gubeikou City step by step, what he saw was a city gate that was almost completely collapsed, and mountains of corpses!
Xue Pan, covered in blood, stood on the city wall with the remaining soldiers, roaring at Li Yunze.
"The last general, Xue Pan, was ordered to guard Gubeikou. Fortunately, he lived up to his command!"
"Well played."
Naturally, Li Yunze would not Han Hu. "For the men who died in battle, their families can choose their sons and nephews to join the Beijing camp. Each person will be buried with two hundred taels of silver, and the family can receive forty years of military pay. The injured must be rescued, and each person will be rewarded with two hundred taels. Because Those who have been injured and retired will be given priority to be assigned to the Yamen Township Lao Li to take up various positions. Everyone will be rewarded with two hundred taels of silver and will be promoted to the second rank!"
I can't talk about ideals and beliefs to the sergeants of this era, and they don't understand either.
The most intuitive and simple thing is to just give money and guarantee.
As for Xue Pan, Li Yunze walked up to him, raised his hands and put them on his shoulders, "First clear the defeated troops in the pass, and then destroy the lair of the Tartars after leaving the pass. The day when the commander returns to the court, you will be the king of Jin and Liao." Time!".BIquGe.biz
