Daming pirates

Therefore, after seeing the battle situation in front of them, the guys on the official and army sides all felt as if something was blocked in their hearts. It could be said that they were as uncomfortable as they were. In addition, they also had various concerns about the various aspects of the home army.

Feeling apprehensive.

You must know that this time, although Kong Youde left a group of troops to deal with the Yu Jiajun in the south, those troops were not the main force, but they were quite large. However, in just such a period of time, his own people there were defeated by the Yu Jiajun.

The entire army was routed, almost wiped out, and suffered heavy losses. By this time, they all already knew the general situation.

This Yu Jiajun was too ruthless! Now he actually came to trouble them again, so a few rebel generals couldn't hold their anger anymore and jumped out to ask Kong Youde for a fight, asking to meet with the Yu Jiajun.

Kong Youde looked at the sky and saw that the sun was already heading to the west. He knew that he would not be able to defeat the imperial army completely today. If he continued to fight, it is estimated that his men would not be able to gain much benefit from the Yu family army.

On the contrary, it may also affect the morale of his subordinates.

So Kong Youde did not allow these men to ask for battle, and ordered them to fortify their defenses and wait for the Yu family's army to attack. They were not allowed to go to war without authorization.

Yu Xiaotian also looked at the sky and saw that Kong Youde did not dare to launch an active attack on him despite his superior strength, so he ordered to continue advancing for a certain distance.

When the two sides approached 300 steps, Yu Xiaotian ordered to stop advancing, set up positions on the spot, and let the soldiers rest for a while. The two sides temporarily entered a subtle confrontation. No one immediately launched an attack, and everyone was observing.

the other party’s situation.

After Kong Youde saw Yu Xiaotian's men and horses, he was secretly shocked. He already knew that the men and horses left in the south had been defeated by Yu Xiaotian's troops, and the losses were extremely heavy. Although it was not to the extent of annihilating the entire army, it was still a great loss.

The loss was more than half.

Originally, he thought that even if the Yu family's army could win, they would have to pay a considerable loss. But now after seeing the troops and horses under Yu Xiaotian's command, he realized that things were not as easy as he thought, so

Although the family army won a great victory, they themselves did not suffer much losses. Although looking from a distance, it could be seen that many of them were covered in blood, but these bloodstains did not seem to be their own.

Then this is not good-looking. Now it seems that the combat power of Yu Jiajun has exceeded his original expectations and has reached an unimaginable level. Therefore, Kong Youde has been secretly afraid and does not dare to continue fighting with Yu Jiajun today.

Fight to the death.

Moreover, they have been fighting fiercely for so long today, and their soldiers and horses are already exhausted. If they continue to fight to the death, not only may they not be able to win, but they may also be knocked to the ground by the Yu family's army.

But just because he didn't want to fight, it didn't mean that Yu Xiaotian didn't want to fight. If Kong Youde showed that he wanted to continue fighting to the death, Yu Xiaotian really wouldn't fight to the end with him, but now Kong Youde showed that he wanted to call it quits.

If Yu Xiaotian refuses to fight, then Yu Xiaotian will not be able to let him get his wish.

After resting for a while, the golden drums and drums of the Yu family's army once again sounded. The phalanx changed and began to advance slowly again, pushing towards the rebel formation.

When the rebels saw that Yu Jiajun was moving again and began to approach them, their hearts suddenly became anxious again. Morale is something that can only be boosted and then depleted. After Kong Youde withdrew his troops just now, the morale of the rebels was strong.

They are indeed very capable, but after such a break, and seeing that their coach Kong Youde seems to have no intention of taking advantage of the situation to attack Yu Jiajun.

So these rebel soldiers who had good morale just now, recalled the bloody battlefield, and their morale suddenly began to decline. Yu Jiajun then took a break in front of them, which reminded them of these things again.

The next day, the Yu Jiajun's strength suddenly made the morale drop even lower.

Now the Yu Jiajun moved again and approached them, causing the rebels to become nervous. Yu Xiaotian gave an order, and the musketeers began to line up in rows and raised their muskets. There was another sound on the battlefield.

There was a blast of muskets like exploding beans...

After the sky gradually began to darken, the rebels dejectedly withdrew to their camp under the leadership of Kong Youde. The Yu family army cheered in front of the formation, and then circled outside in a majestic manner, cleaning up

With some spoils of war, they returned to their camp singing a song of victory.

In the fierce battle on this day, it can be said that both sides had their own victory or defeat. Relatively speaking, no one took advantage. The official Shandong soldiers and Zhejiang soldiers were defeated by the rebels, but the rebels were also beaten by the Yu family army.

The losses were heavy. Although the Shandong and Zhejiang soldiers among the official army were not completely wiped out or dispersed, they could not regain their combat strength in a short time.

However, the rebels suffered huge losses after this battle. Thousands of troops were lost on the battlefield. Even if the loss of the core soldiers was not too much, it was a huge blow to their morale, especially when the battle in the west turned into a victory.

After their defeat, their morale was even lowered, and their fear of the family army became even more serious.

After Yu Xiaotian rushed to the battlefield in the west, Kong Youde was afraid of the battle and refused to attack. Yu Xiaotian led his troops to hold him down and beat him severely. He lost hundreds of men and horses in vain, and most of them were his core elites. Kong Youde could only be disgraced in the end.

Defeated and returned to the camp.

And what depresses Kong Youde the most is that he obviously fought a great victory, but he didn't have time to harvest much spoils. On the contrary, after the Yu Jiajun came, he lost them all on the battlefield, and later took advantage of the Yu Jiajun.

After both sides withdrew their troops that night, the commander-in-chief felt very unhappy and could not explain how he felt. Zhu Dadian summoned all the military commanders to discuss matters in his central camp in the evening.

Inevitably, Zhu Dadian angrily rebuked Wu Anbang, Gao Guozhu and others, scolding the two generals so much that they all bowed their heads like chickens and dared not speak. Who made them incompetent?

The rebels were beaten to pieces and almost completely wiped out.

The one who received the most severe scolding was Gao Guozhu. His defeat could almost be said to have been caused by his improper command. If he had not immediately ordered a retreat when he saw the Shandong soldiers defeated, he would not have collapsed on the spot.

, In fact, as long as he persisted for a short while, Yu Xiaotian had already led his troops to the battlefield, and the Zhejiang soldiers under his command did not have to suffer such losses at all.

However, it was precisely because of his mistake that the Zhejiang Army collapsed on the spot, ultimately losing a large amount of supplies, soldiers, and armor, and the Zhejiang Army Group was almost wiped out.

As for Wang Hong and others from the Sichuan soldiers, they watched a good show today. They did not directly participate in the battle, but were responsible for cleaning the battlefield afterwards. Some people died, but none of them were killed by the rebels.

Wang Hong ordered him to kill him because some of his soldiers were disobedient.

Only Yu Xiaotian and Meng Fei and others under his command were truly praised by Zhu Dadian in the end. If Yu Xiaotian and his soldiers and generals had not worked hard today, Zhu Dadian would not have dared to imagine that the officials would be like this.

What's the situation on the army's side? It's estimated that even he has packed up and is running away at this moment. How can he be here to show off his power and curse at others!

Some of the generals were happy, and some were frustrated. Although Wu Anbang and Gao Guozhu both criticized Xiaotian, they believed that if Yu Xiaotian had taken action earlier today, they would not have been defeated so miserably. If Yu Xiaotian had defeated him earlier,

If the rebels on the south road came to reinforce them on the west road, they would not have been beaten so badly by the rebels.

But they couldn't say this yet, because if it hadn't been for Yu Xiaotian today, they would have been much worse. If Yu Xiaotian hadn't rushed to the West Road in danger, forcing the rebels to give up their pursuit of them, they would have

The whole army was almost annihilated today, so Yu Xiaotian saved their lives.

Not to mention how awkward this feeling made them feel. On the one hand, they were complaining in their hearts, but on the other hand, they had saved their lives. They wanted to complain but dare not say anything, and wanted to express their gratitude but felt that this was not the case.

What's more, they have also seen that if they want to put down this rebellion in the future, they themselves cannot count on it. Even though their combined strength is much larger than that of the Fujian Army, they have been completely squeezed out.

The marginal area has become an auxiliary force and can only help the Yu family army.

If they offend Yu Xiaotian now, they will definitely become very sad in the future. Yu Xiaotian's crooked mouth can send them to death. They are not fools. At this time, they will never dare to offend Yu Xiaotian.

God's.

Another point made them even more afraid to offend Yu Xiaotian. They all suffered heavy losses today, but Yu Xiaotian made a lot of money. Not only did he capture many rebels, he also seized a large amount of supplies and armor.

They needed to be replenished now, but Zhu Dadian did not have any extra armor materials for them to allocate to them, so they could only hope that Yu Xiaotian would distribute some of these captured armors to them to make up for their shortcomings.

Finally, Zhu Dadian came forward in person and discussed with Yu Xiaotian, asking Yu Xiaotian to give some of the captures to the Shandong and Zhejiang soldiers, and to give some of the prisoners to the generals on both sides to supplement their strength.

Of course Yu Xiaotian hesitated for a moment, saying that he was currently suffering a lot of losses and was short of a lot of food and salary. Of course Zhu Dadian knew that Yu Xiaotian was taking the opportunity to sell things off and extort money, but he could only hold his nose and admit it, saying that the military rations had arrived.

Afterwards, limited supplies were provided to the Fujian troops.

Only then did Yu Xiaotian relax, pretending to understand the righteousness, and made an impassioned speech, saying that of course he would not sit back and ignore the friendly troops' difficulties, and could promise to replenish them with some captured weapons and armor. As for the rebels,

He was a prisoner, but he refused to let go.

More than half of these captured rebels were former Shandong soldiers. It can be said that they were forcibly coerced into joining the group. In fact, they were not willing to follow Kong and Li in the rebellion. They had no choice but to save their lives.

After joining the rebels and being captured, many people reported that they were forced to do so.

Most of these prisoners expressed their willingness to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side, turn around and rejoin the ranks of the officers and soldiers, perform meritorious service for their crimes, and join the army to destroy the rebels.
