Chapter 50 Persuasion
When the officers and soldiers of He Renlong appeared on the other side, Xiao Tianjian and several generals under his command were also slightly shocked. It was not that they had not fought with the officers and soldiers. They had encountered the officers and soldiers several times before, which left a very bad impression on them, so when they came this time, everyone underestimated the enemy and thought that The officers and soldiers of He Renlong are better than the officers and soldiers of Feng Xiangwei, but I guess they are not much better.
But when He Renlong led his troops to the other side of the river, they had to put away the idea of underestimate the enemy and began to re-examine the officers in front of them.
The reason why He Renlong is so famous in Shaanxi is definitely not a fabrication. When Xiao Tianjian saw He Renlong's appearance, his heart tightened slightly.
Because this officer army is very different from the officer army of Feng Xiangwei that they encountered before, the officer army under the command of He Renlong is of quite good equipment. From the perspective of these officers and soldiers who appeared in the array, more than half of the soldiers are wearing armor, and the whole army is wearing the kind of wide-brimmed iron helmet unique to the Ming army, even the worst Wearing a red mandarin duck war jacket.
The long gunners, knife players, archers, gunners and a team of jumping cavalry appeared in their vision, and there was no chaotic scene of the guards they had seen before. A variety of flags stood in the array of officers and soldiers, and the generals quickly completed them with the movement of these flags. The array.
The soldiers were in front and the auxiliary soldiers were behind. It only took less than a quarter of an hour for the officers and the army to complete the array. In the middle, a flag was raised high, with a big letter of congratulations on it.
All the officers and soldiers who appeared on the other side were shy one by one. After the array, they immediately exuded an awe-inspiring murderous atmosphere. This kind of murderous atmosphere is only something that can be possessed by soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles. It's just a formation, and the officers and army transmitted a strong sense of pressure to the criminal army on the other side.
Then the carts were also sent to the front, lined up in front of the officers and soldiers, and a gun also aimed its muzzle at the west bank of the river.
The 300 soldiers standing at the front felt the pressure of the officers and soldiers on the other side. They were already a little nervous. Then they saw the officers and soldiers on the other side pushing out another cannon, and immediately slightly **.
"Stabilize! Don't move! The violators are served by military sticks!" The officers in the soldiers immediately shouted loudly and suppressed their subordinates one after another to prevent these soldiers from being confused.
At least, the military discipline of the Xingtian Army has always been strict. Although it is a soldier, when you go to battle, you should still obey the military discipline. There will be no ambiguity. There is a contract in the military rules. Looking back at the battle, you will be punished with 20 military sticks; those who make noise for no reason will be killed, and those who run around in front of battle are regarded as deserters...
And it was not an example that no one was beheaded for violating military regulations before. When the soldiers appeared a little **, they were immediately forcibly suppressed by the guards of the Xing Tianjun.
On the one hand, the role of the guard of the Xingtian Army is uniformly managed by the iron head. Part of it is sent to various officers as personal soldiers to protect the safety of officers. On the other hand, it is also the surveillance of officers. On the other hand, it plays the role of a gendarmerie in the army. In the front of the battle, it can exercise the right to supervise the army, and even for soldiers who do not respect military discipline. Officers are punished, so sometimes the guard is even more powerful than the officer, but the Xing Tianjun also has a requirement that the guard can supervise the officers, but it is not allowed to interfere with the command of the officers. The protective army is over the substituted, which interferes with the normal command of the officers. To some extent, it still has the meaning of a political commissar, which is also An important means for Xiao Tianjian to control Xing Tianjun.
Looking at the cannon launched by He Renlong's department on the opposite shore, Xiao Tianjian immediately looked over with his men. Although He Renlong's army is not the best equipped army in the Ming army, after all, Shaanxi has been fighting with the civilian army for so many years, so the weapons are equipped. The quality of preparation is better than that of officers and soldiers in other places.
After they launched the artillery, it can prove that 3,000 officers and soldiers have launched nearly ten medium-sized Fran machine guns in one breath, and there are four relatively large iron cannons. This is not to mention the tiger squat cannons and bowl cannons they carried and a large swarm of bee rockets. If they are all added together, the firepower will definitely exceed There are several times the artillery of the Xingtian Army.
Just this one thing makes everyone nervous.
"Grandma's! It's really He Renlong's soldiers and horses. There are so many cannons! It seems that there is something to fight today!" Zhao Er donkey couldn't help muttering behind Xiao Tianjian.
"I said Zhao Er donkey, you are timid. As soon as you see that there are more officers and soldiers, you want to pee in your pants again! Humph!" Feng Gouzi always seemed to deal with Zhao Er donkey. As soon as he heard Zhao Er donkey muttering, he immediately grabbed his little braid and made fun of him.
"Feng Gouzi, you are a little bastard in front of me. When will I be worse than you? You guys have only killed a few people! If you have the ability, after we go back this time, you can talk to me and see who has no eggs in his crotch!" As soon as Zhao Er Lv heard Feng Gouzi's words, he immediately scolded and returned it.
Xiao Tianjian snorted coldly. Although he didn't scold them, Feng Gouzi and Zhao Erlu immediately closed their mouths.
At this time, among the officers and soldiers on the other side, a team of soldiers began to appear and began to list an offensive formation on the east bank of the river. It seems that the officers and soldiers were ready to attack.
"Let the soldiers behind take a few steps back and prepare for the next formation on the slope. Don't let the officers and soldiers see anything first!" With a relaxed look on his face, Xiao Tianjian indifferently told the generals behind him.
As the order was conveyed, the soldiers of the soldiers who lined up behind the corps always retreated neatly a few steps, retreated to the bottom of the slope and reorganized the team. Under the orders of the officers, the archers hung the bowstrings on their arms and tried the bowstrings one after another, and those firemen also received orders and began to put down the birds. The ammunition was loaded into the cartridge. After the officers ordered again, they lit the fire rope on the bird.
Xiao Tianjian and Zhu will continue to stop to watch the situation of the officers and soldiers on the other side. After the troops were out of the array and ready to attack, a soldier holding a small flag strode out of the team, turned over and jumped on the war horse. As soon as he urged the war horse, he rushed to the stone bridge and quickly took measures. The horse rushed across the stone bridge, came to the west bank of the Wanzi River, and strangled the reeds at a distance of 30 steps away from the Xingtian Army.
This officer and soldier can be regarded as an envoy sent by He Renlong. He is solid in stature and wears an iron armor. An iron bone is hung on one side of the saddle, and an iron shield with a small diameter is also hung on the other side. He should also be regarded as a strong person. There is an arrogant arrogance all over his body. After strangled the war horse, he was contemptuously He glanced at the array of the Xingtian Army, and then shouted, "I am the envoy sent by General He. Which of you is the leader of the thief army? Come out and answer!"
The soldiers on Xing Tianjun's side were staring at the guy rushing across the stone bridge. Luo Li stretched out his hand and took off his hard bow from the horse's back. He put one hand next to the quiver, intending to pull an arrow from the quiver.
Xiao Tianjian said coldly, "Don't act rashly! The two armies will not cross the army! Don't act rashly!"
Luo Li then immediately released the half of the arrow feathers that had been pulled out and hung down the bow. The rest of the archers and gunners also relaxed their arms without making any action.
Xiao Tianjian shook the rein and came out of the crowd from the team. He slowly came to the envoy sent by He Renlong and pointed to him with the whip in his hand and said loudly, "This is my decision. If you have something to say and fart, go back quickly after saying it!"
The little flag official who was sent to persuade him to surrender was stunned for a moment. As soon as Xiao Tianjian appeared on the stage, he gave him a strong sense of depression. The thief who answered the words was not only tall, but also the horse he sat on was very tall. In addition, Xiao Tianjian's decent scale armor made his figure more powerful and strong. The deliberately and neatly trimmed whiskers on his face made his facial lines more rough and tough. As soon as he came out, he suppressed his momentum, which made the little flag official suddenly frustrated by three points.
After taking a look at Xiao Tianjian, even he had to admit that Xiao Tianjian's appearance is really speechless. Anyone in front of him will have some sense of inferiority. Moreover, Xiao Tianjian has controlled the army for a long time, and he has already accumulated a kind of power that is only for the superior. If he is allowed to talk to Heren. Long Zhaoyi's words, Xiao Tian's momentum in fitness will never lose to He Renlong. Invisibly, it makes this arrogant little flag official who was just as arrogant as 25 to 80,000 yuan much more polite.
The small flag official held the small flag in his hand and said to Xiao Tianjian, "Do you dare to ask the general's name?"
Xiao Tianjian didn't bother to salute him. After snorting coldly, he said to him, "If you don't change his name, don't change your surname. My surname is Xiao, and my name is Tianjian!" If you have anything to say, say it quickly! Don't talk too much!"
The little flag official looked at Xiao Tianjian's arrogant appearance and was also a little angry. He was not afraid that Xiao Tianjian would kill him now, so he punched Xiao Tianjian again and said, "I am specially ordered by General He to meet General Xiao. Our General He said that you just turned to the high thief and did evil. For the sake of not much, I will give you a chance to get off the horse and surrender quickly. Our general can say a few words to the court so that you don't have to die! If you are lucky, you can still be awarded an official position by the court, and you can be an official in the future! I don't know what General Xiao's intention is?"
Xiao Tianjian sneered and frowned and asked, "Are you here to say some nonsense? If that's it, you can go back! Go back and tell He Renlong that I, Xiao, am not interested in work for the court. Let him save energy!"
After listening to this, the little flag official suppressed his anger and then persuaded Xiao Tianjian, "Since General Xiao doesn't want to turn to the court, that's okay! Presumably General Xiao is also a bright-eyed person, and you can also look behind me. We have a wide range of soldiers under General He. How can you stand it? God has a good virtue, and our general is not willing to kill more evil, so I advise General Xiao to say that you'd better not use the Li thief as a gun, or leave early. Our general can not care about your offenses. Otherwise, once you are obsessed, our general will lead the army to kill you and crush you into mud!" The reason why this little flag official was sent out to persuade him to surrender was that his mouth was still a little level. He proudly turned around and pointed to the array of He Renlong on the east bank, threatening Xiao Tianjian.
Xiao Tianjian sneered and said impatiently, "There's a lot of nonsense. You can go back now!" Tell He Renlong that Xiao is not afraid of death, nor is he a gunman for anyone. If he has the ability, he will let him come over and send you over to talk nonsense. Can he scare Xiao? Get out of here! For the sake of the two armies, I will leave you with a life! If you talk a lot more, you're not polite! Get out of here!"
After hearing this, the little flag official changed his face and said angrily, "Okay! If you don't make a toast, you won't be punished, then I'll see you later!" After saying that, he immediately ran back to the east bank.
