Lord of Ming Dynasty

Chadel pointed to a cavalry guard and said, "Go and watch those Han army flags and other cavalrymen, don't move those two women, understand?"

The guard cavalry said, "It's my lord."

When Zhang Qiang saw Hu Kui who was in a state of distress and led his troops back, his hands were shaking with excitement. He pointed at Hu Kui, speechless.

One last long sigh: "Oh——"

He waved his hand, "Go down and rest,"

He rubbed his forehead, these Mongolian cavalry are really worrying, he thought about the news reported by the sentry, and guessed the intention of these Mongolian cavalry, they approached Chuzhou so blatantly, defeated Hu Kui's cavalry What?

But he knew that these cavalry might not be able to beat his army, but if he wanted to run away, he really had nothing to do with them. They got on their horses and ran away in a hurry. With Zhang Qiang's current cavalry, it was really not enough for him, and he couldn't chase them. Dare to chase, if you catch up, you can't beat it.

It seems that a strong cavalry team should be established.

Chapter 99 Exchange

The continuous losses and failures, even if they have won a prefecture, Zhang Qiang is worried about the future of this rebel army.

There are no generals who are good at fighting, and their own shortcoming is lack of mobility. Most of the soldiers are really soldiers at the level of the rebel army. When they meet Qing army generals with better brains, they are the ones who deliver food, prisoners, and heads to others.

With countless thoughts and worries, Zhang Qiang fell into a deep sleep.

March in the south came quietly.

In the cold wind, with some damp spring air, some grasses began to drill out of the ground tenaciously, sticking out their green bud caps, quietly checking everything around them, as if they were all fresh.

Among the yellow-brown dead branches and leaves, a sentry cavalry stepped back carefully, out of the sight of the Mongolian sentry cavalry, turned over a small river bank, stepped on the shallow water with ice slag, and ran into the small forest behind him Inside, he pulled away the camouflaged dead branches, got on his horse, pulled the horse and ran out of the grove, and ran around the field outside the small village for a few hundred meters, then let go of the speed of the horse and accelerated towards the capital city of Chuzhou.

A ray of sunlight suddenly jumped out from the top of the mountain in the distance, illuminating the village occupied by the Mongols. Like a drum of war, the Mongolian cavalry who beat the ground fiercely rushed out of the village in twos and threes, and finally gathered outside the village to form a formed an attacking column.

Behind, the Han army banner cavalry and Qing army infantry also drove the captives out of the village.

Qianhu in Songyang County said to the Han army flag cavalry commander beside him: "Brother, what are the Mongols doing?"

The cavalry commander shook his head, "I don't know, we don't get involved in the Mongol affairs, and when the time comes, just run faster than them."

Qianhu in Songyang County frowned, and said cautiously: "You mean, he wants to attack Chuzhou Capital City with this little force?"

The commander of the cavalry smiled helplessly, "Not at all. I don't think he's that stupid."

The cavalry of the Han army passed through the infantry of Songyang County, and the cavalry converted from captives was supplemented, and the cavalry team was expanded with the captured horses. There are currently 400 cavalry, but he does not think that with more than 300 cavalry and more than [-] infantry, they can win the battle in Chuzhou. Rebel team.

In the past few days, he saw that the number of times Mongolian cavalry came and went to the capital city of Chuzhou increased, and neither side could do anything to the other. Zhang Qiang's Jinhua Rebel Army had a strong force, but lacked mobility, and attacked a heroic cavalry team. That was asking for trouble. The Mongolian cavalry were afraid of the strength of Zhang Qiang's rebel army and did not dare to attack. The two sides were exhausted here.

Inside the prefectural city of Chuzhou, Zhang Qiang looked at Sunit who was escorted here. This Mongol Taiji, Sunit's strong body has become hunched. Zhang Qiang has never been polite to the Mongols and Jurchens. They Generally, they are paid to work to death, but they are not as good as the Ming army and the Han army. If they perform well, they can be promoted to supervisor leaders and complete tasks, or after a period of trials, they can be sent to do some hard work. You don't have to worry about your own life anymore.

As long as they worked honestly for ten years, they could enjoy civilian treatment and be released.

If they can voluntarily submit their names, or voluntarily surrender, they can also be selected into the supply team to help transport food and weapons, but there will always be rebel soldiers watching them above their heads.

Those who are capable and talented are selected into the auxiliary army, and they serve as officers of the auxiliary army, escorting those who have committed the most crimes and refused to repent. The siege equipment goes to attack the city, and the first person who kills the city wall, whoever survives, returns with a reduced sentence of one year.

Promoted to a higher officer.

And those soldiers of Ming army and Han army banner who did not have much evil deeds, were looted, and did not fight many wars, after three months of hard work, they were turned into supervisors, and then they were selected into the ranks of the rebel army as soldiers.

This is the current source of soldiers in Zhang Qiang's current rebel army.

Apparently, Sunit was no longer in the middle. After months of torture, he was so thin that only his skeleton remained, his eyes protruded, his cheekbones were high, and the Mongolian robe he was wearing was already in tatters.

To be honest, Zhang Qiang didn't want to let him go, but he thought of the pair of beautiful eyes he saw at the beginning, and thought that the owner of these eyes was the daughter of the backbone Zhu Dadian in history possessed by his own NPC Zhu Dadian. Zhang Qiang couldn't help deliberating over and over again, and finally he decided to agree to Cha'er's exchange terms.

Of course, a Sunit cannot exchange all the people back, such as Lin Chengcheng, originally Zhang Qiang didn't want to exchange this person back, but he thought of He Jin's thoughts, if he didn't exchange Lin Chengcheng, what would He Jin think? What do those generals who surrender themselves and work hard for themselves think?

Therefore, Zhang Qiang brought Liu Liangzuo over again and exchanged him for Lin Chengcheng.

Liu Liangzuo's exchange for Lin Chengli was a bit of a disadvantage. Compared with Ma Bao, Qi Sansheng, and other Ming army generals who were captured by Zhang Qiang, Liu Liangzuo's energy was much greater. Er recognized him. Ma Bao, Qi Sansheng and others had never cooperated with him. Cha Er knew about him, but he was not familiar with them, so he only recognized this person.

"Let's get out of the city!" Zhang Qiang waved his hand helplessly. This time it's really shameful to lose home. He got a Chuzhou capital city, but lost two enemy generals. There, there are guys who can cause countless troubles for themselves.

Zhang Qiang really wanted to kill Zhu Dadian's daughter, Zhu Panpan, and Lin Chengcheng, so that his and He Jin's efforts were all in vain.

But thinking of He Jin, Zhang Qiang gritted his teeth in hatred. It would be better to be more peaceful. Being in the state capital, with so many mountains, expanding to this place, wouldn't that make him feel guilty?

There are not so many troops, how to defend such a huge territory, there are many trails in the mountains, the enemy cavalry can find a way at random, even if some elite cavalry raids, their garrison troops will be destroyed, and reinforcements will not come at once.

This place is really tasteless.

But I let myself let go of this place that took the lives of more than 3000 rebel soldiers, and I am not reconciled. At least with the intersection of Chuzhou Prefecture and Lishui County, I can go south to Wenzhou Prefecture, west to Jianning Prefecture, and north to Quzhou Prefecture. There are tens of thousands more citizens.

I don't know why he always likes to use the titles of territory and people to praise these territories and people of Daming.

Sometimes he wondered if he had played that game too much, or had been eroded by systematic thinking, making him really regard himself as a lord.

The cold wind was blowing, the water was gurgling, and on the plain five miles outside the city of Chuzhou, there were five thousand troops on one side and less than one thousand Mongolian and Han flag cavalry on the other.

The two sides approached slowly.

When the two sides approached a distance of 200 meters, they both stopped automatically. In the era of cold weapons, this distance is almost a safe distance. The damage caused by the opponent is also huge.

But today neither side brought cannons.

Zhang Qiang left the artillery in the capital of Chuzhou, led by Mi Chun, to defend the safety of the capital of Chuzhou. He Jin's subordinates and an infantry unit of one hundred households were also left behind.

Chapter 100 I learned this from you

"Are you Zhang Qiang, the leader of the Jinhua Rebel Army?"

Chadel came to the center of the battlefield with several Mongolian cavalrymen, and the first thing he asked Zhang Qiang when he saw him was this.

Zhang Qiang said with a cold face, "Yes, stop talking nonsense here, surrender or die, it's your choice."

Chael was angry from the heart, and roared furiously: "You killed my clansman, and one day I will cut off your head to pay homage to my clansman."

"Hmph, it depends on whether you have the ability?" Zhang Qiang said lightly, shaking the whip in his hand.

"One day." Cha Er suppressed the anger in his heart, and said to Zhang Qiang unconvinced.

"Let Sunit Taiji go first." Chael said.

"You let go of my generals Lin Chengcheng and Zhu Panpan first." Zhang Qiang did not show any weakness.

"Hmph—" Chadel turned his head away and remained silent.

The two of them were deadlocked in place, not talking for a long time, Zhang Qiang saw that this was not possible, he didn't have time to spend with these guys, so he said:

"How about this, I'll let Liu Liangzuo go first, and then you let Zhu Panpan go when he gets to your side," Zhang Qiang said.
