Chapter three hundred and twentieth: hurry up, hurry up

From the beginning of this war, Park De-sung fell into Yun Zhao's plan and ordered the retreat of the military and civilians in Ci County to be destined to end. The Anqing border army, which was rushing like a tide, panicked inside and outside Ci County. People in the city wanted to go out, and people outside the city wanted to rush back to the city. With the cover of the city wall, they always stopped in their hearts. Internal and external affairs surged, and suddenly blocked the city gates. Thousands of people trampled on each other, screaming endlessly. Before the Anqing border army arrived, it was already a mess here.

The soldiers and civilians fled in a row and fled in scattered everywhere. Wang Qiang's fourth battalion was divided into three groups and almost at the same time. Anyone who dared to resist was chopped to the ground in an instant. With almost no effort, Wang Qiang controlled the county town of Cixian and entered the city. The other two groups did not stop, chasing Park De's troops who were fleeing all the way to Wangwushan.

The common people fled to Wangwu Mountain because it was the direction that the county magistrate pointed out for them. The soldiers fled to Wangwu Mountain because they knew that there was also their complete, established army there, and now it was their only life-saving straw.

The Anqing border army was like a monster, rumbled and mercilessly crushed over. Anyone who stood in front of them, regardless of the military and civilians, disappeared into the torrent in an instant, and the two columns of the Fourth Battalion rolled towards Wangwu Mountain.

The fleeing people slowly woke up. As long as they did not stand on the road or in front of this army, their lives would be worry-free. So slowly, more and more people fled around, and more people avoided the sharp edge of the army. They immediately squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, or simply lay on the ground and pretended to be dead. If there were dead people around them, they would be even more perfect.

Zhong Jie didn't leave, and there was no time to leave. When a group of yamen runners and clerks surrounded him to the city gate, there were crowds of people. Not to mention finding a way, it was even more difficult to find a crack. He sighed and went straight to the county government, sitting upright on the lobby of the county government, preparing to die. Seeing that the magistrate was unwilling to escape, the yamen runners and clerks scattered in a blink of an eye. Only Zhong Jie was left sitting in the empty lobby and sighed.

The trees fall and the money scatters are just like this.

Park Demeng's personal soldiers saw the opportunity quickly. Seeing that the momentum was wrong, they hugged Park Demeng and fled to Wangwu Mountain. Because they walked early, they had a smooth journey. Besides, they rode their war horses and were much faster.

As the cold wind blew and the autumn rain blew, Park Demeng slowly woke up. Looking back, the flag of the Anqing border army had been planted above the city. More flags were moving quickly towards this side. After Cixian was over, Wangwushan could not defend it at all. Although it was well-known, there was no complete line of defense, there were not enough soldiers, and there were not enough long-range suppression weapons. How could he compete with the Anqing border army, which was like a wolf and a tiger? That was completely seeking death.

He could only retreat to Zhaotong immediately, where there was Zhaotong County, where there were more than a thousand local garrison troops, where there were enough powerful weapons in the county.

Holding Zhaotong to the death has the opportunity to save the situation. Even if he only has more than 1,000 elite troops left, he assisted Zhaotong County and the more than 1,000 local garrison troops, Park Demeng believed that he could defend Zhaotong for a year and a half.

"Retreat all, retreat to Zhaotong, except for the weapons in your hands, abandon all things that are not conducive to the march, immediately, immediately!" As soon as he arrived at the first post, Park Demeng looked towards the soldiers who were stunned by the sudden incident on Wangwu Mountain. Deng Yang, the first poster, was preparing to gather the army and pounce down the mountain to meet the enemy, so as to rescue the army that was in chaos.

"General, we still have so many brothers trapped in the enemy army, don't care about them?" Deng Yang asked in a crying voice. The change came too suddenly, and no one could accept the ending of the 5,000 defenders overnight.

"If you delay for a while, even the first whistle will be smashed in." The blue veins on Park Dem-meng's head appeared. But the five thousand troops, but his efforts, have now become a vague one. "Even if we rush up, what's the use of death with them? Retreat, retreat."

The first whistle on Wangwu Mountain, led by Park Demeng, had only carried food for one day and left the piles of weapons that had not been installed on the mountain. Pile of food and supplies covered with rain cloth, fleeing from the other side of the mountain to Zhaotong in panic.

The first group of Cixian people who retreated to the mountain were desperately discovered that the army had left them and fled. They were immediately panicked. Some wealthy landlords and gentry in their families rode on horses and ran away with the army. As for the aunts who could not ride horses in their families, they could only throw them on the mountain and leave them to fate.

The abandoned person sat or lay in despair, leaving the will of heaven. Although the armours around him gathered like mountains, no one dared to meet them.

An hour later, Wang Qiang's mount ran up to Wangwu Mountain. The soldiers of Anqing searched for some people hiding in the mountains and the soldiers who were behind, and drove them one by one and gathered them together.

"General, the mountain is cleared." A lieutenant rushed to Wang Qiang and bowed respectfully. Although almost everyone in the Fourth Battalion was bigger than Wang Qiang, Wang Qiang had already established his authority in this army.

"Carefully identify, the common people release them and let them return home. The soldiers are locked up in prisoners of war camps and sent to Gaoyang after the war is over. As for those gentry and landlords, hum, lock them up first." Wang Qiang said.

"General, there are no landlords and gentry, but there are quite a few landlords' concubines!" the captain said with a smile.

"How do you know?" Wang Qiang asked strangely.

"It's easy to distinguish them from their clothes and skin. I've gathered these people together and asked them. Their men left them and ran away." The captain laughed, "The skinny and tender flesh, watery, is completely different from ordinary women."

Wang Qiang glanced at him sternly and said, "If you violate military discipline, don't blame me for being ruthless."

The captain was startled, "How dare I? General, I'm just joking. What should these women do? I'll lock them up."

"Of course, lock up, these landlords and gentry women and babies are locked up. Humph, the king's army revived Ci County. These local gentry did not want to serve the country, but instead followed the thief. The situation in the future is calm. When I want to come back, hehe, this is ironclad evidence. Don't you think about this level without much bleeding." Wang Qiang laughed. Didn't General Yun catch the painful feet of these gentry landlords in Gaoyang and get so much land at once? Now there are more and more soldiers, and more battles will be fought. Whether it is the soldiers who have made meritorious service or the soldiers who have been injured in the battle, they all need land and gold and silver.

Ma You rode to Wangwu Mountain. Seeing Wang Qiang, he jumped off his horse and ran to Wang Qiang panting. "General Wang, the city has been completely controlled. The county magistrate of Ci County Zhong Jie is very cooperative and has shown his willingness to surrender. His subordinates ordered him to immediately perform the duties of the county magistrate, to comfort the people, restore order and public order in the city, and sent a hundred soldiers to temporarily obey the order in front of the yamen. Oh, this guy's yamen run away and the clerk's office have all run away."

"He is very tactful!" Wang Qiang snorted, "Let him make meritorious first. As for what happens in the future, wait for General Yun to take the final action. If you do well, you might as well let him take care of the county magistrate. If you do not do well, you will probably have to move your head."

"This guy is probably scared, so how dare he act untrue?" Ma You smiled and said, "General Wang, the last generals and subordinates have gathered to stop. Just wait for the general to give orders, he can immediately start and chase Park Demeng, the unlucky guy."

"We marched urgently for a long time and launched an attack in the early morning. The brothers were tired and asked the brothers to rest for two hours and make rice. After the two entered Chen, a thousand soldiers were left to control Ci County, and the rest were all heading to Zhaotong."

"In two hours, then Park Demeng hasn't run away yet?" Ma You said anxiously.

"Do you still need to worry about this? General Yun has already prepared a big meal for Park Demeng. If we chase him tightly and snatch Li Mazi's delicious food, he will have to hurry with us. Let's have a good rest and then drive directly to Zhaotong. It is estimated that by that time, Zhaotong will have fallen into our hands." Wang Qiang smiled.

"Is this great contribution to Li Mazi?"

"Why are you eating?" Wang Qiang laughed. "Pu Demeng, who annihilated the wreckage dog, took down Zhaotong, who was incomplete and lacking soldiers, is a great contribution. Taking down Xingling is a first-class contribution. Old Ma, are you still afraid that there will be no war and no contribution? I am afraid that you will not be able to grab the credit at that time, that will be a coward."

"Why can I not do what Li Mazi can do, as a captain? My Ma You came from the army no matter how you say it. It is much better than the monk who became a monk halfway through. General Wang will wait!" Ma You said unconvincedly.

"Then I'll wait and see!"

"Hurry up, hurry up, fuck, are you soft-legged crabs?" Li Mazi stood by the roadside and cursed: "If the old guy Park Demeng runs away, General Yun wants my head, I will chop your head first. Hurry up." Waving the big knife in his hand, Li Mazi urged her.

Meng Gang ran to Li Mazi, "Person Li, our soldiers have begun to fall behind. We are moving forward too fast, and many soldiers can't keep up."

"If you can't keep up, you can get the ball!" Li Mazi waved his big knife, "How many people will follow?"

"There are more than 3,000 people in the first place, and more than 1,000 people have fallen behind."

"No matter what, keep pace. Even if only a thousand people follow, we have to rush forward."

Meng Gang nodded and turned around and rushed back. Li Mazi's army, except for his dozens of personal soldiers, was composed of Gaoshan soldiers who had completed the training. Under the high-intensity marching, many soldiers had been thrown away by the large army. On Shangtu, there were soldiers who were so tired that they were slumped on the ground.!~!
