Chapter 737: The Law of Marching Before the Battle
Chapter 737: The King of Dharma will not listen to advice before the war (please give me a monthly vote)
The Sanjiang Trading Company and Jinhe Trading Company are well-known, and not everyone knows their relationship with Wang Tong, but everyone also sees Wang Tong's care for these companies.
These businesses organized caravans to go out of the frontier, and there were also Tartar cavalry to respond. To put it bluntly, this was equivalent to the joint response of the Governor Datong and the Tartars. No matter how bold the horse thieves on the grassland were, could they still be able to steal it?
But when Datong Right Guard was guarding the officers and soldiers on the other side of the tiger's mouth saw the caravan entering the pass in a mess, everyone opened their eyes wide. The horse thief was really brave and dared to rob him.
The news soon spread everywhere. A large group of Tartar cavalry escorted to Guihua City and handed over the goods. It was fine here. When they returned, they bought a large number of specialties on Guihua City. However, there was no need for the Tartars to escort this time, but the caravan encountered horse thieves on the way.
The horse thieves only washed away goods and gold and silver, but did not hurt human lives. This style looks like the first group of horse thieves to commit crimes.
Although life was not hurt, it seemed that someone had slapped in the face in Datong Town. It was really embarrassing. The horse thief really didn't leave any face for everyone.
The distance between the tiger's mouth was not far from the right guard of Datong, and everyone soon knew the reaction to the top. The imperial envoy of the Governor Datong, Lord Wang Tong, was furious.
It was the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, and firecrackers could be heard inside and outside Datong Town, but those who know a little about military affairs could not feel the festive atmosphere, but instead felt full of solemnity.
On the east side of Guihua City hundreds of miles away, the smoke pillars soaring into the sky are naturally easily visible, and many people also remember that cavalrymen were sent to wipe out horse thieves in that direction.
When the second team arrived there, they only saw Jingguan made of heads. The scene was burning in a mess, and the scorching smell was so stinking that it was impossible to breathe. Birds and beasts were tearing the remains of the corpse.
A thousand-man commander is also a person who can come to the stage at the Tartar level. Naturally, some people recognize his appearance. If you know this one, the rest will naturally be recognized.
Everyone was yelling in anger, taking out weapons to chop into the air. It was not easy to track the traces from the snow and grass, because the fire and smoke covered most of the traces.
"General Luo Shen, your subordinates forced the civilian girl to hang herself in order to show their temporary desires. Is this true?"
In Wang Tong's military tent, there was no festive atmosphere. Wang Tong, who was sitting on the chair, asked a gang general coldly. On the ground in front of him, a man dressed in Qian Zheng knelt there with blood on his head, and his whole body was tied up. All the soldiers and generals stood there solemnly, looking at the man kneeling there, with a little disdain in his eyes.
The General Luo Shen looked powerful and had a burly figure, but at this time he looked dirty and clasped his fists and said:
"Sir, Mr. Yu Qian is confused and confused for a while. I will be willing to compensate the woman's house. Please spare this villain."
"Since this is true, let's go on the marching law."
Wang Tong did not give the general a chance to speak any more. When the two guards heard Wang Tong's order, they strode forward and dragged the person out directly.
Mr. Qian struggled desperately, but his whole body was tied up, so how could he move? Before leaving the camp, Wang Tong said in a cold voice:
"After cutting off your head, pick it up with a spear, and declare it to see what the consequences of violating military law"
The guards agreed, Mr. Qian opened his mouth to shout, but someone stuffed a towel into it and dragged it out directly. Wang Tong looked at General Luo and said:
"Luo Yucheng, I said that this time is equivalent to wartime and you are not allowed to leave the camp without authorization. The Qianzheng, the general of the war soldiers, can actually go to the town and rush into the people's house after drinking too much wine. How can you be the general of this gang?"
Wang Tong's voice suddenly became stern. General Luo Gan's legs became weak and he knelt directly on the ground, kowtowed and said:
"My general knows that he is wrong, and My general knows that he is wrong. Please spare your life, please spare your life."
The border soldiers were cowardly when fighting with the Tartars, but the ravaged places were like tigers and wolves. It was also Wang Tong's Huwei Army and the soldiers from Jizhen who were strict in discipline, which made the local people feel less afraid and a little relaxed. However, the local soldiers were still very tragic. Although Wang Tong was restrained by military orders, he still couldn't control them.
Mr. Yu Qian drank too much and rushed into the countryside to ruin other girls. The woman could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide. This kind of thing was vaguely passed on on weekdays.
If the mistress made a ruthless move, she would even kill the mistress together. This would not happen again or twice. However, Wang Tong is stationed here now, and the girl's father sneaked to Wang Tong's camp to file a lawsuit.
The guards around Wang Tong, the imperial guards who came from Tianjin Guards, were usually restricted by military discipline, and naturally they couldn't stand this. The news of the complaint quickly reached Wang Tong's ears.
The journey of beasts should naturally be severely punished. What made Wang Tong really angry was that even when he announced the war, military generals like General Qian could still run out of the camp to drink and madly.
Violating military law will naturally require severe punishment, but at this time something went wrong. The military law team that arrested people in the past was actually turned away by a group of people from the Right Guard of Datong.
The Qian general also had a thousand soldiers and horses, all of whom were loyal and shouting, "If you send troops to take them, you will be furious and you will go to the grassland to surrender to the Tartars."
A young man came here to serve as an imperial envoy, commanding tens of thousands of troops. He was so strict with everyone every day that everyone was very angry, and they all wanted to give Wang Tong a good look so that he could know whether it was your young master soldiers or local border soldiers in the marching and war.
Wang Tong's response was very simple. He sent the First Regiment led by Li Hutou and took four cannons to the military camp where the Qianzong was located. The arrogance of this group of soldiers disappeared after seeing the neat queue of the First Regiment.
If you do something wrong, you will be a trained military force. You can see what a strong soldier is and what a soft bird is. What's more, the four cannons dragged by horses are really scary.
Originally, he had placed a red-haired antler at the camp gate, and a group of people were behind him pretending to be a tiger's power. When they saw the cannons coming, they always felt that it was a deterrent and did not dare to shoot their own people like this, and they hid behind and shouted.
Li Hu couldn't rub the sand into his head and eyes, so he directly ordered the musket soldiers to shoot for a round, and dozens of corpses were placed on the ground. Then he looked at the indifferent group of tiger-powered soldiers. The soldiers here knew that they would make trouble again, and they would kill them mercilessly, and immediately scattered.
After Mr. Qian was captured, the general rushed over. No matter what the mess was like, the general would not show up.
After knowing the power of the Huwei Army, he did not dare to hide beside him and watch jokes. He entered the Huwei Army's barracks and saw the strict preparations along the way, his momentum was getting lower and lower. When he arrived in the military tent, he was already trembling and did not dare to vent his anger loudly.
Ma Dong, deputy general of Datong Town, looked at the general hatefully. After he was the deputy general in Tianchengwei, many of the military generals below were dissatisfied and did his own thing. He could do nothing about it. This time it was equivalent to losing his face in front of Wang Tong, which was really hated.
"Deputy General Ma, at such an extraordinary time, Luo Yucheng condoned his subordinates to act recklessly. What should you do about it?"
In the military tent, you could vaguely hear the announcements outside. Wang Tong suddenly asked Ma Dong and said, "Ma Dong was stunned and quickly answered:
"Luo Yucheng also violated military law. It's really unwise at this moment. It's so ridiculous. How can you hold the position of general? Please choose a separate appointment with the adults."
"Removed Luo Yucheng's position as the governor of the Right Guard of Datong, and brought his own personal soldiers to the army to make meritorious contributions and atone for his sins. This is the candidate of the General of the Right Guard of Datong, Deputy General Ma, you are the principal of Datong, so it is up to you to discuss with the General of the Supervisor Xu."
Ma Dong quickly bowed and agreed. No one paid attention to Luo Yucheng who was so desolate. Wang Tong sold a favor to Ma Dong and gave him a vacancy arrangement for the general. This made Ma Dong gain a foothold in Datong, which was very beneficial.
No matter how angry the soldiers and generals in Datong Town were, they could only admit it after seeing this situation. The soldiers and horses transferred by the imperial envoy were all elite. It was very easy to suppress these native chickens and dogs in Datong Town. In addition, Ma Dong, the deputy general of the commander-in-chief, bowed his head, and everyone knew that they would live a life with a shit.
On the 25th day of the 12th lunar month, news came from the grassland that Guihua City dispatched tens of thousands of cavalry to search for horse thieves everywhere in the grassland, in order to eliminate this rampant horse thieves.
The Tartar cavalry who were originally active on the grassland were still in a modest manner, but this time they ignored it. There were police everywhere on the side walls of Datong. The nearby villages and towns often saw the flames ignited, and the originally not-so-strong festive atmosphere disappeared by the sudden and solemn smoke.
This is so nervous that the imperial envoy Wang Tong was also furious about the robbery of the business. Moreover, after discussing with the officials of Datong, the imperial envoy decided not to allow the horse thieves to be so rampant, nor to allow the Tartar cavalry to act like a rampant activity. If it were not for chasing and suppressing the horse thieves, but instead took advantage of the situation to attack Datong, wouldn't that be a great harm?
The enemy dispatched tens of thousands of cavalry, and the corresponding actions must be made here. The imperial envoy Wang decided to lead the Huwei Army and Jizhen reinforcements, and various elite troops from Datong Town went out to clear out the horse bandits and deter the Tartars.
Those who heard this news were shocked. It would be good to intimidate the Tartars. Don’t be intimidated by the Tartars. Now that all the troops gathered together, hiding behind the side wall in a regular manner, isn’t it good to go out and do something? Haven’t you ever heard the saying that a sheep enters the tiger’s mouth?
Those who were defeated, such as the Dai Palace, had already written an impeachment memorial, and Wang Tong was defeated on the grassland and submitted a memorial. Those who were mature and persistent wrote letters or sent envoys to persuade him.
