It's time to fight back. The only way to defeat the bandits is to say "quick battle and quick decision". Once the Ming army falls into the quagmire of war, it will not only be the national strength. The 12th Regiment Battalion faces Li Zicheng's million-strong army, and the hope of victory is slim.

Only blitzkrieg can quickly resolve the battle. Work hard and completely defeat the fighting will of the bandits.

Damn it, Wang Deren hit the gun. Song Xiance's suggestion was extremely correct, and the 12th Regiment Battalion suddenly came over. Wang Deren's troops quickly dispersed.

In view of the great defeats in Weihui Mansion and Huaiqing Mansion, Wang Deren's tribe had become a frightened bird. The Ming army dared, Guo, Xiao and Gong four brave camps, like a god-like general coming from the sky. With just one encounter, Wang Deren's tribe had almost no decent resistance.

The battle process was also extremely simple. The bandits who were defeated were surrounded and beaten so smoothly by officers and soldiers for the first time. The governor of the Ganyong Camp Fan Yun, the governor of the Guoyong Camp Hong Zhou, the governor of the Xiaoyong Camp Huang Sanli, and the governor of the Guyong Camp Shui Tianyu, the governor of the Guyong Camp, they led their subordinates to fight and rush towards Wang Deren's troops.

In addition to the advantages of weapons, officers and soldiers have instantly cooperated with formations and tactical cooperation. Such a large-scale battle is not just a time to show personal courage. The most important thing is the cooperation of each unit.

The tacit understanding of cooperation can give the enemy huge lethality. This time, the Ming army obviously had the advantage.

Before, Zhu Cixuan's efforts to rectify the three major battalions were not in vain. At least the combat effectiveness of the 12th Regiment Battalion was improved to a certain extent. Especially the army cooperated with each other and did a very good job.

The troops of Hongzhou from Guoyong Camp went directly to the tail of Wang Deren and cut off their retreat. At the same time, Fan Yun's troops of Ganyong Camp were the main force, Huang Sanli from Yangying Camp was responsible for the flanking detour, Guyong Camp Shuitianyu's troops, and as a mobile force, rushing to various units at any time.

It can be said that Wang Deren's army was directly surrounded and beaten.

Sun Tzu's art of war is obvious, and the encirclement army will be missing. It means that you should not block the retreating enemy, leave a gap for escape from the surrounded enemy, and do not force the enemy on the verge of despair.

However, military tactics are dead, and humans live. A qualified general must not be limited to the desperate copying of military tactics. In this way, it can only be regarded as a paper talk. If you can fight if you read a few military books carefully, then there will be no one in this world who cannot fight.

In situations like siegeing Wang Deren's troops, it is impossible to surround the troops and leave a gap for them. Instead, they can do everything in one go and wipe out or capture them.

Because troops like Wang Deren have completely lost their fighting spirit. They do not have the courage to burn their boats. If the encirclement army is denied and given hope of survival, they will rush madly.

It is to directly block their retreat and completely destroy their hopes. It is futile to completely defeat their morale and resist.

But no one is afraid of death, so are they afraid of their intimidation?

Not afraid, Wang Deren's army was not even considered a miscellaneous army of the imperial court. His troops were originally withdrawn from Weihui Mansion and Huaiqing Mansion, and the troops Li Zicheng supplemented him were all mobs. It is impossible to rely on them to burn their boats in such an army. It is unrealistic to rely on them to jump over the wall in a hurry.

Faced with the surging Ming army, the only thing they could do seemed to be throwing away their weapons and begging for surrender.

Zhu Cixuan once ordered not to accept any surrender of the bandits, so the Ming army seemed very cautious about the surrender of the bandits. If you can surrender, you can put all these bandits into the bandit concentration camp.

Then there is an examination one by one, and one by one, and these bandits need to be registered one by one. Their names, origins, ages, etc. all need to be strictly examined. What is important and most important is the evil deeds they have done.

Those who participated in the bandits and had no murder case on their hands were sent to Liaodong for corvee service. Those who were stained with blood on their hands and killed innocent people, regardless of whether you beg for surrender or not, will be killed without mercy!

Killing all these blood-stained bandits is a last resort. The placement of these bandits is a big problem, and they can easily rebel if they are not careful. Because they have tasted the sweetness of burning, killing, and looting others' property is faster than anything else.

However, it is a huge project to examine them. Moreover, some fish that misses the net will inevitably appear. Sometimes, some torture must be carried out, causing these surrendered bandits to suffer some flesh and blood.

Fortunately, the Jinyiwei had rich experience in interrogation. They were familiar with interrogation. In this battle, Wang Deren's army was almost wiped out, and Wang Deren himself died in the chaos of Ming army.

Originally, he almost captured Wang Deren. If he captured such a general under Li Zicheng, it would be a huge blow to the morale of Li Zicheng's army. Unfortunately, when the Ming army surrounded Wang Deren, the personal soldiers around this guy tried to resist stubbornly. In desperation, the Ming army fired arrows at once, and Wang Deren died under the arrows.

Zhu Cixuan called a personal soldier beside him: "You go back to the capital and take my military order from the palace and order Luo Yangxing to transfer two thousand Jinyiwei to Henan. Remember, the speed should be fast."

The subordinates took the order and quickly whipped away. The two thousand Jinyiwei were transferred not to fight, but to interrogate.

Next, the Ming army will capture more prisoners. These prisoners will require a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to solve the problem. Zhu Cixuan did not want to be the Virgin, so he gave a general amnesty to release all the surrendered bandits without permission and let them return to their hometown to serve as farmers.

There is no such cheap thing in the world. If you do something wrong, you should pay the price you deserve. The blood of innocent people should not be easily erased like this.

Interrogating these prisoners and forcing them to tell them about their evil deeds. There is almost no other way except to report and expose each other. Of course, there will be many fish that miss the net. This requires the help of the Jinyiwei.

Therefore, Zhu Cixuan issued a military order to ask Luo Yangling, the Jinyiwei, to select two thousand Jinyiwei to rush to Henan. The purpose was to interrogate these surrendered bandits.

In the battle of Zhongmu County, Wang Deren's troops were completely defeated, and the commander Wang Deren was shot to death by arrows. The army of 100,000 people under his command were beheaded by officers and soldiers, and more than 70,000 people fled to 8,000 to 10,000 people were captured. Among these prisoners, more than 7,000 were stained with blood after interrogation.

This is a shocking number, and Zhu Cilang couldn't help but stand up. Among the 20,000 bandits, more than 7,000 people dyed the blood of innocent people. This is terrifying to think about it carefully.
