Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 230 Cao Bianjiao

"Military doctor! Hurry up! We must save Commander Zhao! If Commander Zhao can't live, you don't need to!"

Niu Dali looked at Zhao Chunfa, who was covered in blood and unconscious. His eyes were bloodshot, and his face was gloomy, terrifying.

"We do our best!"

A military doctor with the team looked nervous and helped Zhao Chunfa do the examination.

Simple treatment of wounds, hemostasis...

"Legion commander."

The military doctor who accompanied the team came over with blood all over his body.

"The situation of Commander Zhao Jun is very bad. He needs surgery as soon as possible. There are no surgical conditions here. I have helped him stop the bleeding, and now he needs to be sent back to Qiangdi Hospital."

"Send! Send it quickly! I will leave a small flag of people to protect you, and return to the strong place immediately. I will go after Liu Fei, the traitor!"

Niu Dali's eyes were bleeding.

Without waiting for the large troops behind, he shook Zhao Chunfa's hand and said in a low voice:

"Old Zhao! Live well! I will avenge you! I will definitely bring Liu Fei back and make him kneel in front of you and apologize!"

After speaking, he got on his horse and chased after him with ninety men.

……

Outside Weizhou City, a group of Ming soldiers were waiting for someone.

A flag fluttered in the wind, and a big "Cao" character on it was very conspicuous.

"Fan Yongdou, you bastard! What the hell are you doing! Let me go out of the city to greet you, do you really think I have time?"

The leading general spat on the ground with a dissatisfied expression on his face.

Dust was steaming in the distance, and a group of people came galloping.

They are all wearing bright red mandarin duck battle jackets, and they are full of travel and dust.

"Is this the Qiangdi Army? They are well dressed! The Qiangdi Army is indeed rich!"

The general at the head muttered, went up to meet him, and immediately put a smile on his face.

"Fan Yuanwai, you really made me wait!"

The general greeted him from a distance.

"General Cao!"

Fan Yongdou let out a sigh of relief, turned his head and said to Liu Fei:
"Brother Liu, this is General Cao Bianjiao. He is a member of the imperial court and guards the Datong Mansion. General Cao is here to greet us in person. Even if the conscripts come after us again, we won't be afraid."

"Oh? But the famous General Cao? Disrespect! Disrespect!"

Liu Fei cupped his hands, secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

Generals Cao and Cao guarded Shanxi and wiped out the thieves. Their outstanding military exploits have already spread throughout the world.

Even Zhao Cheng said more than once that there are only a few generals who can fight in the current dynasty, and generals Cao and Cao are two of them.

When mentioning the big and small generals Cao, Zhao Cheng's tone was filled with admiration and even deep regret.

Liu Fei didn't know why Zhao Cheng regretted it.

However, since even Zhao Cheng admired the fighting power of General Cao and General Cao so much, then his safety is basically guaranteed now that he joins General Cao Xiao?

"General Cao, this is the head of the conscript army, Zhao Cheng's confidant, Liu Fei. He led his soldiers into Shanshan and Shaanxi to help suppress the bandits." Fan Yongdou continued to introduce.

"It turned out to be the commander of the Liu Army. I heard that your strong army is very good at fighting, and even the Jiannu Tartars and Mongolian Tartars have been defeated by you. Can you let us see it?"

Cao Bianjiao's eyes swept over the soldiers of the Ninth Army Corps.

At this time, the soldiers of the Ninth Army had just had a fierce battle with Zhao Chunfa.

They betrayed the crusading army... Most of the fighters still can't accept this fact.

Since they joined the army, the education they have received is to be loyal to the strong land, Mr. Zhao, and use the guns in their hands to grab more land for the strong land.

Now, they turned out to be traitors!
What should they do in the future?
What should some soldiers do if their families stay in the stronghold?
For a moment, their hearts were in a state of confusion.

Everyone's face is full of frustrated expressions, listless.

In addition, running all the way, there are no men and horses, and they look disheartened. How can they look like a strong soldier?

Cao Bianjiao and others looked at it, and couldn't help but look down on it.

The smile on Liu Fei's face froze.

It's obviously disrespectful to ask them to show their fighting power as soon as they meet!
But now Liu Fei has no temper at all.

He had just defected from Qiangdi, and he was counting on Cao Bianjiao to take them over!

Moreover, the morale of the soldiers under him is indeed low and the hearts of the people are not in harmony.

Liu Fei also didn't have the heart to be competitive.

"Hehe!" Liu Fei laughed dryly, "We will fight side by side in the future, and there will be opportunities to see each other. Now that we are exhausted, don't we need it?"

"Who is tired of riding a horse and running for a few steps? At this level, what's the point of fighting!" Cao Bianjiao curled his lips.

"Hahaha!"

All the soldiers behind him suddenly burst into laughter.

The soldiers of the Ninth Legion gritted their teeth one by one, with humiliated expressions on their faces.

Since they joined the Strongland Army, they have been educated to have a sense of honor.

They have always been proud of being a strong army!
Later, it was changed into a conquest army, and I was also proud of being a conquest army!
Since they joined the army, they followed Mr. Zhao and never lost a battle.

Bandits, officers and soldiers, Mongol Tartars, slaves... They all ignored them.

But now, they were ridiculed by others, and their legion commander was just laughing dryly to make up for it.

But they can't do anything.

They are no longer conscripts now!
"General Cao, the military situation is urgent and it is not the time to relax. There are chasing troops behind us, the strong army... oh, it has been changed to the conscript army, and they will be here soon. Please also ask General Cao to enter the city immediately and close the city gates. Prevent the conquering army from stealing the city." Fan Yongdou said.

"Mr. Fan, you are too timid! With Lao Tzu here, how dare the conscripts steal the city? Don't be afraid! If they really dare to steal the city, they will never come back!"

Cao Bianjiao is also young and vigorous, arrogant and brave.

Since he was an adult, he has been fighting with his uncle General Cao Wenzhao, conquering bandits in the north and south, winning almost every battle.

General Xiao Cao is famous for his courage and bravery.

Although he had heard that the conscript army was very capable of fighting, it was not enough for him to run away when he heard the name of the conscript army.

"General Xiao Cao, don't underestimate the enemy! The conquest army has sharp weapons, if you fight against them, the general will suffer!" Fan Yongdou said anxiously.

"Field battles are a disadvantage? Fan Yuan, you think we are those beggars, right? My servants are never afraid of wild battles!" Cao Bianjiao was full of pride.

His servants are all physically strong and extremely sturdy.

"Little Cao, if you are facing other enemies, your servants are indeed elite. However, facing the conscript army... I advise the general to be more cautious. If you can hold the city, you will win. Even, I suggest giving up This Yuzhou City, let's retreat to Datong, Datong is a tall city, and it is an important city of the imperial court, I believe that if Zhao Cheng wants to attack, he will be afraid." Liu Fei said.

Unexpectedly, it's fine if he doesn't say it, but Cao Bianjiao became even more furious when he said it.

"Liu Fei, you are a bitch! You are a coward yourself, so you think everyone is a coward? You didn't even see the enemy, so you wanted to run away?"

When Cao Bianjiao got angry, the dialect popped out.

At this moment, the dust was rising in the distance, and soldiers from the conquest army came after them.

It was Niu Dali who came galloping with ninety soldiers.

"Just a few people? Hehe! Liu Fei, you are really alive! 200 of you have been chased by 100 people and ran so far? You should go back and beat them, beat them away, and calmly Run away, can't you? I'm afraid you didn't even dare to look back, you peed your pants because you were scared?" Cao Bianjiao mocked.

"Hahahaha!"

All his servants burst into laughter.

"General Cao can't be careless! The conquest weapons are indeed extremely sharp..." Fan Yongdou said.

However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Cao Bianjiao raising his hand.

"The weapons of the conquest army are sharp, and our Datong army is not a vegetarian! Fan Yuanwai is too contemptuous of people! Since you have always said that the weapons of the conquest army are sharp, I heard that your Fan family has started to forge weapons by themselves, making firecrackers. The same sharpness. Remember to give us two hundred sticks later.”

"Two hundred pieces are too many. We don't have enough craftsmen. Forging this firecracker is difficult. One craftsman can only make one in a month..." Fan Yongdou explained.

He asked Cao Bianjiao to help defend against the enemy, and naturally he had to pay a price.

But two hundred firecrackers were indeed too much for him.

"I don't listen to that!" Cao Bianjiao interrupted him again, "Two hundred firecrackers, not one less. Moreover, it must be the kind of Zhuge God of the strong army! That's it! This chasing army, hand in Give it to our Datong Army. Let you see the combat effectiveness of our Datong Army!"

Cao Bianjiao got on his horse.

All the family members behind him followed him on their horses.

"Soldiers, follow me to destroy this bandit army!"

Cao Bianjiao waved his hand, full of confidence.

He brought 200 people, all elite servants.

There were less than 100 people on the opposite side.

He knew that the conquest weapons were sharp, but so what?
After all, it is not so convenient to fire a firearm.

Two hundred of their cavalry charge forward, how many shots can they fire on the other side?How many people can you hit?
Cao Bianjiao has seen the Zhuge God Gun...it's really good.But it's just mediocre!
He didn't know that what he saw was the first musket installed by the Qiangdi Army.

Niu Dali and others are now equipped with Lee-Enfield rifles.

"Follow the general to kill the enemy!"

There are two hundred family members, each of whom is full of morale.

The combat power of the Ming army was basically on the servants.

Cao Bianjiao will also default on and withhold money and food from his military households.

No skimping.

Because he wants to take money to support the most elite servants.

Housekeepers are very expensive.

To eat the best and drink the best, mandarin ducks and jackets are issued according to the number set by the court, and they dare not be deducted.

The salary is also ridiculously high. The elite servants of the frontier army will start at least five taels of silver a month.

Raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while.It is vividly reflected in Jia Ding.

Now, with Cao Bianjiao taking the lead, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, these servants dare to charge forward.

In history, Cao Bianjiao's most beautiful scene is that in the decisive battle of Songjin, Cao Bianjiao followed Hong Chengchou to fight the Qing army.

After Songshan was besieged, the Ming army was at an absolute disadvantage, and no reinforcements could wait.

Cao Bianjiao fought desperately at the end, knowing that he would die, he still took his servants and went straight to the Zhenghuangqi camp after nightfall, wanting to use his life to fight for the last chance. If he could kill the slave chief Huang Taiji, he would have Opportunity to turn the fighter.

As a result, he almost succeeded.

At that time, Cao Bianjiao led his elite troops to clash back and forth in the Qing army's camp, smashing through several lines of defense one after another, until they reached outside Huang Taiji's tent.

The guards around Huang Taiji rushed forward as the last line of defense to defend him, stabbing Cao Bianjiao.

But the Ming army still marched forward bravely, killing the guards irresistibly.

Knowing their bravery, Gushan Erzhen Turge, his younger brother Irden, the ministers Xihan, Ye Bilong and other Qing generals saw that they could not win by fighting, so they occupied the gate of the imperial camp in desperation and shot arrows desperately, wounding Cao Bianjiao.

At this time, the Qing army had reacted from the chaos and began to gather from all directions towards the imperial camp. Cao Bianjiao, who was almost fainted due to excessive blood loss, had no hope of breaking into the inner camp, so he had to lead his army back to Songshan.

His record is like a god of war.

For some reason, it was not widely spread in later generations, and Cao Bianjiao's popularity was not very high.

But he is definitely an underestimated Han god of war!
It is precisely because of this that Zhao Cheng spoke highly of Cao Bianjiao, and mentioned this person to his soldiers more than once.

Cao Bianjiao's servants are absolutely loyal and can follow Cao Bianjiao to die!

Now, with Cao Bianjiao's order, they immediately controlled their horses and rushed towards the conquering army.

"General Cao will suffer! Everyone listens to the order, prepares to fight, and supports General Cao Bianjiao!" Seeing this, Liu Fei gave an order.

Zhang Neng and the other [-] or so people are determined to betray the conquering army. They have no way out, so without hesitation, they immediately shouted:
"Everyone, check your equipment and get ready to fight!"

"Support General Cao! Our enemy is the rebel army!"

However, no matter how they shouted, many soldiers still looked at each other and followed them not far away.

Let them run along, let them shoot at the conscripts... They don't want to!

Seeing this, Liu Fei blushed.

"Do you think you still have a way out? You killed Zhao Chunfa! If you go back now, you won't survive! Repel this pursuer, and we will be comrades with General Cao and serve the court. We will still be comrades with the commander-in-chief." !"

"Everyone, as long as we win this battle, each person will be rewarded with a hundred acres of land and three houses! If you haven't married yet, I, Liu Fei, will be responsible for marrying you! However, anyone who dares to hesitate will be punished by military law." !"

Not necessarily threats and inducements.

He has experienced strong military training, and he knows what these soldiers like best.

land!

What these people like most is the land!

Sure enough, his coercion and lure had an effect, and the soldiers started to move forward.

On the other side, Niu Dali looked gloomy.

He saw cavalry approaching from the opposite side, and immediately gave an order:
"Everyone dismount and prepare to fight!"

Ninety soldiers dismounted immediately and put their horses behind the position, while they temporarily found cover, loaded with bullets, and rows of grenades were placed in front of them.

The caps of the wooden-handled grenades are all unscrewed, and can be thrown at any time by pulling the string.
