Chapter 55 Epic victory! I am invincible tomorrow!
Liao Yongzhong shot and killed Chen Sandao, who was very skilled in martial arts, and was straightforward and clear, without a word of nonsense. As for one-on-one fight, it didn't exist at all. I really thought that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was a soldier against soldiers, and general against generals.
As soon as Chen Sandao died, hundreds of bandits who had originally gathered slightly collapsed instantly and began to flee. Even the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, no one had the courage to fight head-on with the Ming army who suddenly came.
The remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty are also human beings. Most of them are afraid of death. Such a scene is basically a one-sided massacre. Everyone is panicked and just wants to run out quickly.
The only place where I could run was the entrance to the valley, so I saw groups of bandits running towards the only exit in a panic.
Before we reached the exit, we could see rows of close-range sword soldiers, one with a long sword in one hand and the other with a shield.
Zhu Qi, with Zhu Di, Xu Zengshou, Li Jinglong, Li Qi and other generals, blocked the valley entrance, with the central army in charge. Whenever they saw someone escape, soldiers shouted loudly: "Surrender, don't kill!" If the bandits knelt on the ground and beg for mercy, they would tie up and take them back together, but if those who did not surrender and dared to resist, they would shoot and kill them on the spot.
However, when I saw more and more people being driven out of the valley by the Ming army, even if Zhu Qi knew very well, I could see that the number of these bandits was a bit too many?
Not only that, some of them had bald heads and braids. Just looking at their hairstyles, they knew that they were not Han people in the Central Plains, but clearly were Yuan people!
Zhu Qi was also stunned. Could it be that the three hundred Hu cavalry and these bandits were involved in the gangsters? They also became bandits?
But with more and more people arrested, there were obviously more than 300 Yuan people.
Zhu Qi is not a fool either. Naturally, he knows that something strange will happen, so he will ask people to interrogate them in a hurry, especially those Yuan people. If you have any information, you will ask them out immediately!
In front, the Ming army was still killing thieves and setting fires in the valley to capture prisoners, and the questioning began to be stepped up at the entrance of the valley.
Although Chen Sandao was dead, it was not just Chen Sandao who knew the plan of the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. There were so many people who could interrogate them. Not long after, the ins and outs of the matter was revealed in front of everyone.
The generals never expected that the Beiyuan ruled the situation and that the Beiyuan Commander actually became the leader of the bandits in Yunzhong Mountain, as well as the remnants of the Beiyuan who gathered from all directions, plus the bandits who were exploited, the imitated mandarin duck war jackets in the camp, etc.
If they were really allowed to successfully open any of the three outer passes in the west, it would have absolutely a great impact on the war situation in the Central Plains.
Even if you don’t cheat, you will be able to cooperate with the Northern Yuan army that detoured through the situation inside and outside the three outer gates. The consequences will be unimaginable!
After hearing the causes and consequences, one of the generals couldn't help but say to himself:
"It's so dangerous. If it weren't for me to appear here by chance, and if these people were allowed to go to the outside three levels, it would be really unpredictable."
After he said this, many generals nodded, but Xu Zengshou frowned and said:
"How can this be said to be a coincidence? All of this is the credit of His Highness the King of Liao!"
After Xu Zengshou said this, Zhu Qi immediately became overwhelmed. Ah, you, Xu Zengshou, like a dog, what kind of grudges do I have with you? Such a great contribution, do you push me? Do I look like a war-capable person? What if Zhu Yuanzhang mistakenly thinks I am a military genius and throws me into Liaodong, how can you die if you want me to die?
I treat you well on weekdays, how can you be so ungrateful!
Zhu Qi felt indescribable pain, but there was no way to make it clear that so many generals were there. When the other generals heard Xu Zengshou say this, they immediately reacted, and Li Qi said quickly:
"Yes, if you think about it carefully, from beginning to end, His Highness the King of Liao strongly advocated sending troops to Yunzhongshan. We all thought there were only three hundred Hu cavalry, and we wouldn't search in the mountains if we wanted to search!"
Others also agreed:
"Yes, without His Highness the King of Liao, these people may have set off today and will go to Danyanmen Pass tomorrow!"
"It's such a critical moment, it's all up to His Highness the King of Liao!"
"It's all the credit of His Highness the King of Liao!"
All the people started to brag about Zhu Qiqi, and they were so big that they were both big!
Zhu Qi never dared to claim this great contribution, so he hurriedly said to the generals:
"How can this be my king's credit? These are all the credits of all the generals! Oh, by the way, the most important thing is the credits of my fourth brother!"
Zhu Di was also confused at this time. He didn't even know where his contribution was. Zhu Qi continued:
"If my fourth brother hadn't raised the speculation that the Northern Yuan might enter the Three Foreign Passes, I wouldn't have sent troops to Yun Zhongshan to search."
But soon Zhu Di waved his hand and said:
"San brother, you are wrong. Although I have this guess, I am not sure. Third brother, you said before, you are the same as I thought, which means that Third brother, you are already confident. Compared to me who is hesitant, Third brother, you made the decision in time and made this decision. Otherwise, we would not have such military achievements!"
Zhu Di was saying it was reasonable and well-founded. Zhu Qi was speechless. The other generals also said it was. What else could Zhu Qi say? He could only keep saying "No, no, no, it's all your credit, it's yours!"
The other generals saw that His Highness of the Liao King was so humble. He didn't take such a great credit and tried his best to everyone. Who dared to take this credit? That was really the conscience was eaten by the dog!
Looking at the expressions of the generals, even some of them began to wipe their tears in a state of emotion. Zhu Qi was so melancholy, forget it, when he went back to write the good news, he would just not mention his merits at all, and just push them all.
Zhu Qi had already made a decision in his heart, and after he went back, he would help all the generals get the merits!
The matter of competing for credit is put on the side. In the valley on the other side, the battle went on, from dawn to noon, mainly to catch people and waste time. In fact, it was just a sporadic fight. Most of the bandits and the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty did not resist at all. They were either burned to death, hacked to death in chaos, or trampled to death. It was a heavy casualty and wounded.
In addition to these casualties, the remaining two thousand people were all captured by the Ming army, and then the casualties on the Ming army were counted. When the casualties report was counted, everyone was shocked again.
A total of more than 1,000 bandits and the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty were wiped out, and more than 2,000 were captured. However, only eleven people were injured on the Ming army, including three seriously injured. Apart from that, none of them were killed!
The other generals were extremely happy. They fought for 5,000 and fought for 4,000. Even though they had the advantage, none of them were killed. This battle was an epic victory that could be recorded in history!
I am invincible in the world in the Ming Dynasty! This is all the credit of His Highness the King of Liao!
