Chapter 169 Fu Zheng
Fu Youde shouted: "Fu Zheng."
"The end is here." Fu Zheng is none other than Fu Youde's second son.
In Fu Youde's view, Fu Zheng is far worse than Fu Zhong.
In fact, if you really want to talk about it, if Fu Zhong had not gone through life and death on the Yunnan battlefield, he might be similar to Fu Zheng. It is also difficult to explain clearly the fate of people. The most training between life and death.
The people around Zhu Yuanzhang were not all talented and powerful, they were just washed up in the sand. Many people were eliminated just like this.
Fu Zhong is like this.
As the second son, Fu Zheng, Fu Youde was not bad to him. Fu Youde's favorite is his eldest son, Fu Zhong. Over the years, a lot of thoughts have been placed on the eldest son, especially since Fu Zhong himself is also promising. Wait until Fu Zhong dies. Only then did Fu Youde think of educating his second son.
But Fu Zheng has already been finalized.
As a man in his thirties, there is no problem in using him as a general. But it is difficult to achieve greater achievements.
Fu Youde said, "Go in person."
"Yes." Fu Zheng said with a solemn expression.
Now, under Fu Youde's order, the Confederate army rushed forward one after another, almost stepping on corpses. Every ditch has been filled with corpses. The two sides exchanged fire and cannon fire, and came into close combat. Almost from the beginning, it was a climax.
At the same time, after the Northern Army had just begun to suffer losses, it also gritted its teeth.
In fact, the Northern Army is not weak. However, they have never withstood such an intensity of attack.
In more than an hour, more than 10,000 corpses were laid out.
Almost everyone is rushing to die. Anyone who comes into contact with this kind of pressure for the first time will find it difficult.
But over time. The Northern Army just held on.
There are many reasons to hold on.
The first is the fear of death.
Without him, within the Northern Army system, everyone comes from a good family. When you go out to serve as a soldier and get paid, someone in your family will act as a guarantor. If you die, the court will pay a lot of compensation. But if you escape, it will be difficult for your family to deal with it.
Secondly, it is also the pride that comes after a hundred battles.
In the past, they had fought against the Southern Army. Now that we have been bitten by the Southern Army, how can we swallow this breath?
Although there are not many troops here. But there are also over 10,000. There is also a steady stream of troops from the rear being deployed here. There are more than 10,000 people, gritting their teeth and fighting, even if they are killed, it will take a while.
At this moment, Fu Zheng's troops were sent up.
Fu Zheng is qualified as a general. Without saying a word, he stood in front of the entire army and gave an order, with the drums beating loudly.
They marched northward in three columns, one after another, guided by the sound of drums.
The Northern Army had no chance to breathe.
They had just recovered from the previous battle. Even the array is no longer neatly arranged. Because there are a lot of vacancies.
At this time. The ground shook slightly.
Fu Zheng immediately understood, cavalry. A large group of cavalry appeared.
As soon as the Confederate army gave the order, the formation on the battlefield immediately changed, from a horizontal formation to a square formation.
But after a while, thousands of cavalry came rolling in. He rushed into the battlefield without stopping at all.
The battlefield at this moment is like a maze.
Hundreds of people form a hollow phalanx. Less than a mile apart, spread out on the battlefield. After the cavalry rushed in, they naturally did not dare to directly attack the phalanx, otherwise there would be no results if they suffered heavy casualties under the intensive firepower of the infantry.
And from the gap into the square formation. It won't end well either.
Without him, the square formation seems to have a gap, but in fact there is no gap. These gaps are fire channels. Without leaving enough space, without using anything else, each other's shots would hit each other's formation.
Once the cavalry rushes into these gaps, they will face firepower projected from two, three, or even several directions.
The fate of the cavalry can be imagined.
But this cavalry had no choice.
He's here to stall for time.
At this moment, behind this line of defense, a second line of defense was deployed several miles away. Behind the second line of defense is Guangwu Town. It's just south of Guangwu Mountain, behind Guangwu Town and on the Yellow River.
That is to say.
Fu Youde only needs to advance more than a dozen miles to push the Northern Army to the edge of the Yellow River.
Cutting off the connection between the two wings of the spreading Union army. Just block their logistics channels. If these people are cut off from the rear, it won't take long before the two wings of the Northern Army become Fu Youde's spoils of war.
It's all about time.
We must find out today.
Ye Chen also knew the same thing.
These thousands of cavalry were the cavalry he could mobilize urgently.
The other infantry that could be mobilized did not go to the first line of defense at all, but gathered directly on the second line of defense. Read the book
The role of the cavalry is to buy time. This is a dead mission.
Therefore, this cavalry can only attack, there is no other way to go.
So, knowing exactly what was happening, they launched a mighty counterattack. The ultimate goal is directly at Fu Youde's handsome flag. It means to kill the general and capture the flag.
It's a pity that the time for the cavalry to kill the enemy and capture the flag is no longer available.
Thousands of cavalrymen crossed numerous formations and fell into the sand before the intensive firepower in front of Fu Youde's formation. The leading general was beaten to a pulp by a cannonball, leaving only a flag floating on the ground.
Fu Youde was very sad.
You know, this cavalry style of play was also commonly used by Fu Youde when he was young. Unexpected, one hit is sure to hit. In beheading generals and seizing flags, Fu Youde's bravery was unparalleled in the world at that time and was second to none.
Unfortunately, it all disappeared.
In essence, Fu Youde actually doesn't like the current style of play, and misses the battles in their youth. The kind of bloody, life-and-death battles are the real battles. Nowadays, everything must be calculated, and the battle is a battle between guns and fire.
It's really boring and tight.
However, his time has come back.
The death of thousands of cavalrymen only bought the Northern Army less than an hour.
This period of time gave the Northern Army a chance to breathe.
But time passes quickly. Fu Zheng had already rushed forward.
The crackling sound of firecrackers sounded again. The two sides fought fiercely together again.
Suddenly, there was a burst of cheers from the front line. But it was the last resistance of the Northern Army that was finally captured.
This excited the entire Confederate army.
Although the casualties paid by the Southern Army in this battle were no less, or even more, than those of the Northern Army. But in today's precarious situation, achieving this big victory is really rare and very inspiring.
Especially this victory was very important, with thousands beheaded and thousands captured.
This was also the first time that the Confederate Army had so many Northern Army prisoners.
Fu Youde was only happy for a moment, and then immediately ordered: "Come on, the army is heading north."
Following Fu Youde's order, Fu Youde gathered all the troops he could and headed north. He knew that the closer he got to Guangwu Town, the harder the battle would be. He just caught Ye Chen off guard today.
The longer the time goes, the more prepared Ye Chen will be.
There is no time to slow down at this moment. Every minute and every second is fought for with blood by the soldiers.
But at this moment, there was a person beside Fu Youde who whispered: "My lord, the second young master is seriously injured."
Fu Youde was stunned and said calmly: "I know."
When Fu Youde asked Fu Zheng to attack, he was already mentally prepared.
He actually knows that the war today is very difficult to fight. When leading an army in a war, the most difficult thing is not how many of your opponent's people die, but how many of your own people die. Today's advantage is actually Fu Youde's taking advantage of it to the extreme.
What are the advantages? This is Fu Youde's advantage in commanding troops for many years.
That is to say, top and bottom should work together to death.
Under Fu Youde's order, many people did not hesitate even though they knew they would die. Whether he is convinced by Fu Youde's prestige or afraid of Fu Youde's tactics. None of this matters. Life and death are great desires of human beings, and everyone who is not greedy for life is afraid of death.
On the frontline battlefield, when the death rate is so high, no one has the idea of escape in their heart.
Making people willing to die is never an easy thing.
Fu Youde's approach was to naturally send his son up to let the people below know that today's battle is related to the prosperity of the world. There is no difference between our Fu family and you. If you die in battle, I will bear all your responsibility. My Fu family The same is true for offspring.
Therefore, when Fu Zheng stepped onto the battlefield, he already treated him as dead.
