East Factory Governor

Chapter 497

On the whole, the battle has been one-sided from the start.Although the Devil's Cult launched a few sharp counterattacks in some areas in the middle, almost tearing a hole, but wherever there is danger, there are experts such as Qin Shuhuai, Zhiren, Wang Datong, Meng Wei, and Shangshui Shitai. One person is equivalent to an assault squad. Under their leadership, the officers and soldiers can quickly suppress the Devil's Cult's breakout.

In the Demon Cult formation, Zhao Wuhen's hair was disheveled, his eyes were bared and his teeth were bared, roaring again and again.He frantically swung the long knife in his hand, cutting one Ming soldier after another in half!But there are so many Ming troops, he can't kill them at all!
Wu Lie said to Zhao Wuhen, "Guardian Zhao, let's go!"

Zhao Wuhen roared, "Absurd! As a Dharma protector, how can I leave my brothers and walk away?"

"Guardian, the brothers are powerless to break through, only you can go out! I can't realize the grand plan and hegemony of my teaching without you! If you die, it will be even more difficult to avenge the brothers!"

When the other people around Zhao Wuhen heard this, they immediately tried to persuade him.

"Guardian, let's go!"

"Remember to avenge your brothers!"

Zhao Wuhen raised his eyelids abruptly, "Revenge! Yes, I want revenge, I want to live, so I can kill Qin Shuhuai with my own hands!"

Afterwards, he immediately roared, "Anyone who can keep up will follow this old man!"

After saying that, he jumped up and flew towards the mountains to the north.

At the same time, about [-] to [-] light kungfu masters followed him and jumped in the same direction.

Qin Shuhuai, Zhiren, Wang Datong and others were not willing to let him go, they performed lightness kung fu one after another, and immediately chased after him.Besides them, there were a few others in the army who were good at light kungfu, and they immediately jumped up and chased after them.

The thirty or forty followers of Zhao Wuhen were already ready to sacrifice for the protection of the Dharma, they immediately turned around and blocked Qin Shuhuai and other experts with their flesh and blood.

As a result, they all fell from the sky one after another!

But Zhao Wuhen ran away, and five or six Demon Cult masters also escaped by luck.

Wu Lie went to stop Qin Shuhuai, Qin Shuhuai thought he was a good man because he had beaten the Tartars, so he stabbed him in the left shoulder with his sword, then kicked him to the ground, and ordered the officers and soldiers below to only capture him and not kill him.

The remaining Demon Sect soldiers had no leader, and they were defeated even faster.

But among them, not a single person surrendered, all chose to fight to the death!

They don't even break through the encirclement, it is completely the mentality of killing one to earn money, and killing two to earn one.

The encirclement was getting smaller and smaller, but the morale of the demon soldiers was getting higher and higher.They roared, laughed wildly, sang loudly, and in the shadow of swords and swords, they contributed the last drop of blood to the Demon Cult.

It was dawn.

The fight that lasted for an hour is over!

Corpses were strewn all over the field, limbs were broken all over the ground, and the green grass was stained red with blood, making the morning glow on the horizon even more beautiful.

The cheers of the officers and soldiers resounded like thunder in the ravine, shaking the air even slightly!

Count the results.

The Demon Cult's [-] troops were wiped out except for Zhao Wuhen and the dozen or so experts.None broke through, and none surrendered. All were killed or committed suicide.The Ming army only captured one prisoner, and that was Wu Lie who couldn't move after falling.

As for the Ming army, there were about 1 casualties, of which only more than 8000 were killed, and the rest were various lightly and severely wounded.

This statistical result lifted the spirits of Hong Chengchou, Cao Wenzhao and others.They realized that with reasonable tactics and sufficient armaments, even the strongest soldiers in the world will not be wiped out by the officers and soldiers!

More importantly, these Gansu soldiers in Lanzhou City have established full self-confidence after the baptism of several battles.Compared with the soldiers in other places, these soldiers are already elite.

For an army, it often takes a few battles to sublimate from a motley army to an elite.The combat equipment of the Ming army is not bad, why is the combat effectiveness not high?In addition to the relatively lax training, the most important thing is that morale has been low for a long time. Soldiers run away when they see the enemy. It spread like a plague, and even an army of one hundred thousand would be defeated at the touch of a button.

After these few battles, on the one hand, these soldiers have a deeper understanding of military orders, battle formations, and coordinated operations-no training method can train soldiers better than actual combat.On the other hand, Lien Chan and Lian Jie made these soldiers' self-confidence burst, thus creating a sense of honor and belonging.On the battlefield, this atmosphere is extremely terrifying!

Now, they think that they are the elite and the pillars of Ming Dynasty.What other troops cannot fight, they can fight.They can do what other troops can't do!

Demon religion?What a fart!I have been with them from Lanzhou City, from inside the city to outside the city, and in the end, I have been ganged up by Lao Tzu?

Have you heard of Lord Qin Hou?I was fighting the Demon Sect with him!Let's annihilate the entire army of the Demon Cult together!You ask, besides our Gansu soldiers, can other battalions defeat the Devil's Cult?

At the scene, the morale of the officers and soldiers was completely overwhelmed!
Qin Shuhuai ordered people to quickly clean up the battlefield, and then immediately retreated to the southeast with the army.

He was afraid that the Demon Cult army would catch up again.

Qin Shuhuai's plan is to retreat to Pingliang in the southeast first.One is that Pingliang is the closest Dacheng to here, and the more than 6 troops can only be safe if they enter the big city quickly, and they can get quick supplies.The second is that the Wulin coalition forces should be able to reach Pingliang soon, so let's meet them first.Last but not least, the location of Pingliang is very important. West can reject the Demon Sect to go east, and go south directly to Baoji. After arriving in Baoji, they can go south with He Renlong's 2 horses from Xi'an to suppress Gao Yingxiang.

Send Gansu to the Demon Sect, and then attack Gao Yingxiang while stabilizing the defense of Shaanxi's western frontier.It was Qin Shuhuai's established strategy to return to attack the Devil's Cult after Gao Yingxiang was wiped out, exactly the same as Hong Chengchou.

However, when Gao Yingxiang was suppressed, it is still unknown what the Demon Society will do, so this strategy is not static, but will adapt accordingly.

Two days later, the army arrived in Pingliang and stationed there.

The Battle of Lanzhou ended.In this battle, the official army lost nearly [-], the Demon Cult lost about [-], and the Ma Shouying Department lost nearly [-].

Such a result, for the court, can be said to be overjoyed.But for the Devil's Cult, it was unexpected.

After this battle, the word "Qin Shuhuai" became a scar on the Demon Cult's chest, which could never be erased.In the army, "Qin Hou Ye" is no longer a simple title, it represents a kind of power, a power that soldiers can feel at ease when they hear it!Anyway, follow Lord Qin Hou to fight, that's right!

On May 26th in the third year of Chongzhen, 11 martial arts coalition forces arrived in Pingliang.

Hearing that Qin Shuhuai had successfully brought out the official army from Lanzhou City and achieved a great victory in Silinggou, all the disciples of the coalition forces were cheered up.

Cao Huachun, governor of the East Factory, personally congratulated Qin Shuhuai, and said again that the East Factory is under him and is ready to dispatch at any time.

At the same time, the Jin army outside the customs has assembled, a total of [-] elites, and once again embarked on the road to the southern expedition to the Ming Dynasty.

However, in the Forbidden City, it is a different scene.

Zhou Yanru brought Chen Shang, the minister of the Ministry of War, and Zhao Yan, the minister of Gansu officials of the Ministry of War, in front of Chongzhen, accusing Qin Shuhuai of cowardice and shrinking, abandoning the important city of Lanzhou without authorization, and causing the entire province of Gansu to fall.At the same time, he joined Qin Shuhuai to shirk his guilt, lied about the victory in Silinggou, and asked Chongzhen to recall Qin Shuhuai immediately so that the Ministry of War and the Third Division could inquire.

　Well, it's been a long time since I asked for a ticket. Brothers who have monthly tickets and recommended tickets, please move your fingers and give the city lord some encouragement. Thank you!
