Chapter 121 Furious Yang Jiamo, Deserter
Some intelligence officers of the Military Intelligence Department have their own reasons for training owls.
They work for the Emperor of Heaven, and they are doing secret intelligence, so what's wrong with training owls?
How dare he seduce their souls?
They are subordinates of the Emperor of Heaven, so they can be regarded as heavenly soldiers and generals, right? Who dares to seduce their souls?
And this owl is also active at night, which is in line with what they do?
What's more, owls are active at night, which can also avoid being discovered.
As for the Intelligence Department and the dark night personnel training owls, Wang Chao has no taboos.
After all, he came from the future, and this world is just an ordinary historical event. He doesn't think that the owl really has the ability to seduce souls.
He even said that when he saw the owl delivering the letter, he still missed it a little.
Wang Chao has seen the work of the future, whether it is the movie or the original novel.
Although he didn't watch it all, he was very impressed by the owl delivering the letter.
Therefore, Wang Chao did not stop the Military Intelligence Department and Shadow from training owls, but encouraged them.
Although the speed is slightly inferior to that of pigeons, it is safer and more concealed.
After all, when it comes to night flight, few birds can compare with owls, and they are also much more concealed.
Even if they are discovered, it is difficult to stop them in the dark night.
After receiving the news from Wang Dahu, Wang Chao immediately began to prepare.
On the other side, Yang Jiamo hurried all the way and finally arrived near Nianbo on the third day.
Then, he met a group of defeated Ming troops.
After asking, he learned that it was the detachment he had sent to attack Nianbo.
They only had more than 5,000 people in total. Not to mention taking Nianbo, even defending against Li Yu's attack was extremely difficult.
In just six days, they were defeated by Li Yu's attack, and the generals in charge were shot and killed by Li Yu.
After listening to the description of the defeated soldiers, Yang Jiamo could not help but frown.
He originally thought that there was only one army like Xining Guard to save the people.
But listening to the story of the defeated soldiers, it seems that the army led by the thief general Li Yu to save the people is also extraordinary.
And Li Yu shot hundreds of meters with one arrow, piercing the chest of the general wearing fine armor, and even shot and killed several personal soldiers in succession.
It was precisely because of Li Yu's miraculous arrow that he shot and killed the general of the Ming army directly, which led to the complete chaos of the Ming army. After a burst of attack, the rescued Ming army fled in all directions.
When Yang Jiamo arrived, Li Yu, who received the news, had already returned to Nianbo.
Facing Nianbo defended by the army to save the people, and Lanzhou waiting for rescue, Yang Jiamo could only sigh helplessly and once again led his army on the road in a depressed mood.
However, he also left 8,000 troops again, not seeking merit, but only hoping to besiege Nianbo for a period of time.
As a man who knows military affairs, Yang Jiamo would not ignore the enemy troops in the rear and march eastward alone.
At that time, he would not be able to rescue Lanzhou, but he would be trapped because of his deep invasion.
When he passed Nianbo and crossed the Datong River into the territory of Zhuanglangwei, he found another headache.
That is, fierce fighting was also breaking out in the territory of Zhuanglangwei.
There were probably two sentries of the People's Rescue Army, which were going up along the Zhuanglang River and the Great Wall to attack the Zhuanglangwei City.
After receiving the news, Yang Jiamo had to lead his troops to rescue.
After discovering the army led by Yang Jiamo, the two sentries of the People's Rescue Army withdrew quickly without much hesitation.
They retreated back to Yehu Castle and Kushuiwan Post, joined the People's Rescue Army stationed there, and relied on the Zhuanglang River and the Great Wall to guard against the attack of Yang Jiamo and other Ming troops.
The Ming army in Zhuanglang City, seeing that the people's rescue army had completely evacuated, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, and their faces showed a look of great joy.
Finally, finally, finally, this group of people's rescue army retreated.
Yang Jiamo learned this after asking.
Just two days ago, there were about two people's rescue army, which launched a surprise attack on them from the Great Wall and the Zhuanglang River respectively.
Due to carelessness, they almost failed to be seized by the people's rescue army, and hundreds of lives were filled in. Only then did they drive those people's rescue army out.
In the next two days, those people's rescue army would launch surprise attacks from time to time, and they were almost broken by them several times.
"Two people's rescue army? How many troops are stationed here?"
After asking about the situation, Yang Jiamo couldn't help but frown and ask, with some confusion in his expression.
"This"
Hearing Yang Jiamo's question, the eyes of the generals guarding the city were a little hesitant.
"What? Is there a problem?"
"No, no."
"Then hurry up and tell me."
"We have more than 3,000 people here."
Although hesitant, the garrison commander still said the number of people defending the city.
"What?"
Hearing this, Yang Jiamo couldn't help but widen his eyes, and his nose almost got crooked with anger.
He knew that the Salvation Army was powerful, but it was not so powerful that hundreds of people could directly defeat thousands of troops.
But the defenders of Zhuanglangwei were blocked at their doorstep by hundreds of Salvation Army.
Not only did they fail to eliminate the Salvation Army, but they were almost broken into the city by the Salvation Army.
Wouldn't it be a big joke if this was told to others?
As for the situation where Wang Dahu led thousands of people's salvation troops and charged back and forth among tens of thousands of troops.
Yang Jiamo doesn't think the People's Salvation Army here has that kind of fighting power.
Otherwise, the initial raid could capture Zhuang Langwei in one fell swoop.
And since the initial raid was not successful, the combat power obviously did not exceed the level of common sense.
In this case, as long as these thousands of soldiers dare to fight, the hundreds of people's salvation troops will never dare to attack Zhuanglang Guard City so unscrupulously.
"You, you, you"
Yang Jiamo pointed at the guard's nose, his face turned green and white with anger, and his lungs were about to explode.
He really wanted to kill the man in front of him.
However, he now has no time to organize his army here.
In this case, if this city general is killed, there will inevitably be no trouble.
At this critical moment, any mistake may lead to final defeat.
In the end, Yang Jiamo suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a cold tone:
"I will leave three to five thousand soldiers and horses again. You'd better deal with the people's salvation army, or at least contain and trap them in Zhuang Langwei's territory.
Otherwise, just cut off your head yourself."
He originally wanted to keep three thousand.
However, thinking that Zhuang Langwei's 3,000 defenders were beaten by hundreds of people's salvation troops, and even almost broke through the city, he temporarily added another 2,000 troops.
"When my subordinates take orders, they will definitely trap the people's salvation army in Zhuang Langwei's place."
Hearing that 5,000 more troops were to be added, the guard was still a little nervous, but he finally gained some confidence and immediately knelt down to accept the order.
"Hmph! I will send Yu Yun to lead the five thousand soldiers and horses, and you two will work together to fight against the National Salvation Army."
Yang Jiamo really couldn't believe the general in front of him. Thousands of troops were suppressed and beaten by hundreds of people. It was a joke to even tell him.
Regarding this, the guard felt very aggrieved.
It is true that the Salvation Army is too brave, they can be called murderers, and they are not afraid of death. The soldiers are really no match.
Even if he pressed forward with his entire army regardless of casualties and killed all the Salvation Army soldiers, how many of them would be left?
A thousand, or a few hundred?
And does the National Salvation Army still have backup? If the People's Salvation Army had follow-up troops, wouldn't they, who suffered heavy losses, be overrun in an instant?
Thinking about it this way, they didn't fight the enemy just to protect the city?
Isn't this considered a meritorious service for them in defending their territory? Even if there is no merit, at least there must be hard work, right?
Naturally, Yang Jiamo didn't know about the guard's psychological activities.
Because he needed to rush to Lanzhou quickly, Yang Jiamo left 5,000 soldiers behind, together with the Zhuanglang Guards, to besiege and contain the People's Salvation Army in Bushuiwanyi and other places, and then set off again.
And just when Yang Jiamo kept rushing on the road and had a headache for the People's Liberation Army along the way.
The Counselor Kingdom, who led the troops to besiege Xining Guard, was very comfortable at this time.
Without the dictation of his immediate superior, the entire military camp would not be left to his own devices.
He also had no intention of attacking Xining Wei, and only focused on defense.
And his turtle tactic really left Wang Dahu with nothing to do for a while.
However, when two or three days passed and he saw that Wang Dahu could do nothing to him, his thoughts gradually became more alive.
This army is just for defense and besieging Xining Acropolis. It seems that it doesn't need so much food and materials, right?
Involuntarily, he began to think about his wallet. He felt that his wallet was too thin.
On that day, the army's meals were changed from three meals a day to two meals a day, and the portions were reduced by three points.
The second thing is even worse. Although there are still two meals a day, the portions are less than half of normal.
Suddenly, the entire army was filled with complaints.
However, Wang Guo didn't care much about this. After severely dealing with some people who made trouble, he became more relaxed.
Gradually, many soldiers below could not help but have other thoughts.
"How long do you think we have to stay here?"
"Oh~, then who knows?"
“Our food is getting worse and worse and we don’t have enough to eat at all.”
"Cuckoo"
And when it comes to food, many people's stomachs can't help but growl.
For a moment, everyone was a little silent.
“Can we really defeat the Salvation Army?
I heard that the leader of the People's Salvation Army is the Heavenly Emperor Linfan, and that the People's Salvation Army are all heavenly soldiers and generals, and they all have supernatural powers.
Even if they died, they would just return to heaven, and they might even be rewarded by the Emperor of Heaven.
We are dead, haha.
Then he might be sent to hell.”
After hearing this, everyone became even more silent, their eyes flickered slightly, and different thoughts arose in their hearts.
But no one said anything.
Or, they are all waiting for someone else to say it.
No one spoke.
In the end, everyone looked at each other and left laughing.
It was night, at the edge of the camp facing the direction of Xining Acropolis, a figure sneakily poked his head around and looked around.
After seeing no one, he cautiously left the military camp.
But at this moment, his figure froze suddenly, because he saw a figure standing up not far to the left.
"Uh haha, I think it's a nice night today, so I'll see if I can find some game."
"Ah~, yes, yes, maybe we can find some food."
The man opposite seemed to be a little shocked by his appearance, and was also stunned on the spot.
However, after hearing his lame excuse, the man actually nodded in agreement.
"Hmm"
At this moment, he was a little confused. Looking at the pitch-black night around him, how could you find game in this situation?
But soon, he reacted.
I'm afraid the purpose of the person in front of him is the same as his?
After a slight hesitation, he gritted his teeth and pointed in the direction of Xining Weicheng.
The man faced the faint firelight, and after seeing his movements, he was silent for a while, and finally nodded.
"Huh~!"
Seeing that the other party had the same purpose as themselves, the two of them exhaled a long breath and relaxed slightly.
