    The rest of the Jiannu cavalry no longer cared about snatching Lord Huerhan's body. They had to escape for their lives, so they turned their horses and ran away.

    The team of bird gunners in front of the Yaowang Temple had loaded their ammunition again, and, from a high position, lit the fire and fired the guns. There was a loud "bang bang" sound, the fire was splashing, and the smoke was filled. It was very powerful, but this round of shooting had no effect at all.  As a result, Zhang Yuan clearly saw that a Jiannu cavalry was shot in the back shoulder, but the projectile seemed to fail to penetrate his armor. The Jiannu groaned, leaned on the saddle, and continued to gallop on the horse——

    With a "swish" sound, an arrow shot out, passing over the back of the Jiannu cavalryman who had just been shot, but hit the neck of the mount under his crotch. The mount hissed loudly, and instantly stood up.  The Jiannu cavalryman slipped off the horse's butt, but his left foot was still hanging on the stirrup. He was dragged by the horse for a few steps before he was freed. When he was about to stand up, a military captain in gilded uniforms caught up with him and slashed his calf with a knife, causing him to scream.  Falling to the ground with a sound——

    The person who bent the bow and shot the arrow was Ke Guangxian. He took the hemp-backed bow that Mu Jingyan had placed beside the cart and controlled the string to shoot furiously. He shot people first and horses. This Jurchen of Yehe tribe was very good at archery.

    Zhen Zidan failed to kill or injure a single Jian slave, so he was eager to make a contribution and shouted: "Catch up and wipe out all the Jian slaves." He took the mount, climbed on his horse, and called his captain to follow him in pursuit.

    There were thirty-two of the Jiannu cavalry when they came, but there were still nearly twenty who fled. They came like a gust of wind and fled as fast as they could. They were more than ten feet away in the blink of an eye. With the foot power of these Jinyiwei mounts, they would not be able to catch up.  , and the musketeers are all foot soldiers and cannot pursue them. If we rely solely on these armored guards who can only use swords to pursue them, we are afraid that they will never come back——

    Zhang Yuan shouted: "Zhen Qianhu, don't chase me."

    Zhen Zidan took the lead and gave chase. The other Jinyi guards did not dare to fall behind and rode their horses to chase. At this time, the fleeing Jiannu cavalry had approached the bend of the mountain road. Two of them turned around on horseback and fired arrows.  Zhen Zidan, who was chasing at the front, fell off his horse.  The other Jin Yiwei immediately stopped and did not dare to pursue.

    The slave-building cavalry didn't even run away. They reined in their horses one by one, raised their bows and shot arrows at the imperial guards. The people who sneaked into the territory of Ming Dynasty and Liaodong Capital this time were all the elite cavalry of the Eight Banners Army. They were galloping down with arrows just now.  Very accurate lethality.  At this time, he immediately drew his bow.  The arrows were indeed in vain. The Jin Yiwei in the front were hit by the arrows and fell off their horses. The ones behind were so frightened that they quickly turned around and ran back——

    The sound of hooves suddenly started.  The twenty cavalry slaves who originally fled for their lives now chased them, firing arrows as they chased, threatening to kill all the dozens of imperial guards.

    The situation was critical. If Zhang Yuan was so frightened that he quickly retreated to Yaowang Temple, the balance of victory and defeat would immediately flip.  These Jiannu cavalry could turn defeat into victory with a single charge. Scenes like this were common in the Liaodong War in the late Ming Dynasty.

    Zhang Yuan said loudly: "Rumi Gun, don't panic, wait for the thief to get close before shooting."

    There were about twenty Lumi guns loaded with projectiles. The musketeers stared nervously at the retreating Jin Yiwei and the Jian Nu who were chasing after them.  It's our own people.

    Those Jiannu cavalry saw that the defense line built by the Ming Dynasty envoys with horse-drawn carriages was not in chaos.  Knowing that the Ming army's firearms were waiting for them, they did not dare to pursue them anymore. They fired another round of eagle-feather arrows and then retreated on horseback, quickly disappearing in the back mountain col.

    Zhang Yuan ordered the musketeers to be on guard against the Jiannu cavalry before they came back, and the rest of the troops hurriedly treated the wounded.  Zhen Zidan's reckless pursuit caused the Jinyiwei to suffer heavy losses. Five people were shot in vital parts by sharp arrows and died on the spot, seven others were seriously injured, and four people were hit by arrows in their crotch mounts.  The mounts knocked them off their horses and injured them; in addition, during the previous charge, the Jiannu cavalry shot and wounded eleven musketeers and Jinyi guards. When they rushed to the carriage defense line and fought hand-to-hand, four more Jinyi guards were killed by the fangs of the Jiannu cavalry.  He was stabbed to death and six others were injured.  In this short tea time, 12 Jinyiwei died and 21 were injured. Four musketeers died and 9 were injured. Two of them were injured by musket explosions. One had three fingers blown off and the other had his left side blown off.  His face was cut by the iron piece of the gun barrel, and Ma Kuoqi was also injured by an arrow.

    Nineteen of the thirty-two Jiannu cavalry who attacked retreated safely. The losses of the Ming envoys in this encounter were far heavier than those of the Jiannu!

    "Master Zhang——"

    Zhen Zidan leaned her scabbard on the ground and stood up with a pale face. Just then Jian Nu turned back and fired an arrow, which was as fast as lightning. After all, Zhen Zidan had been practicing martial arts for many years and her adaptability was better than ordinary people. She dodged to the left based on her feeling and unexpectedly shot an arrow.  The shot hit the junction between his left shoulder blade and clavicle, causing severe pain. He also injured his left leg when he fell off the horse.

    Seeing that Zhen Zidan had saved his life, Zhang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards Zhen Zidan. He was not Zhen Zidan's immediate boss, and Zhen Zidan was seriously injured. He was deeply responsible for the inconvenience and asked people to quickly treat Zhen Zidan's injuries.

    Seven of the thirteen Jiannu cavalry who were lost here were shot and fell from their horses by muskets, and the other five rushed to the carriage formation and were killed by Mu Jingyan and the Jinyi guards.One of them died under the arrow of Ke Guangxian.

    Zhang Yuan walked up to Zhen Zidan and saw that the iron cluster of the carved feather arrow had penetrated deeply into Zhen Zidan's left shoulder blade. If the treatment was not done properly, Zhen Zidan's left arm would have been disabled, so he comforted Zhen Zidan.

    Three feet away from Zhang Yuan's back, a "dead corpse" of a Jiannu lying prone on the ground began to move slowly. This Jiannu was not dead or seriously injured. He was shot by Rumi's gun during the charge and fell off his mount.  After fainting, he woke up and realized his situation. The Nanchao sergeant was searching the body of his companion. It would be his turn soon——

    A warrior in imperial robes murmured curses and walked over and kicked the "corpse", trying to turn the "corpse" face up for inspection. Suddenly he saw the "corpse" leaping up and snatching away his embroidered spring.  The knife was inserted into his chest——

    Seeing that the sword was successful, this Jiannu immediately rushed towards Zhang Yuan. He had already seen that Zhang Yuan was the leader, and his goal was to kill or capture Zhang Yuan alive.

    In addition to a few Jinyi guards, there were only two people following Zhang Yuan, Wang Zongyue and Sheba. Wang Zongyue was closer to the right of Zhang Yuan, and Sheba was on the left side of Zhang Yuan's body. Sheba was the first to be alert, with a thin body like a civet cat.  Turning around as lightly as he did, the narrow-edged knife was already in his hand, stopping the Jiannu's crazy counterattack. The sound of the swords clashing was ear-piercing——

    Wang Zongyue stretched out his hand and touched Zhang Yuan's right elbow. Zhang Yuan involuntarily stepped back seven steps, farther away from Jian Nu. Zhang Yuan shouted: "Leave one alive."

    Wang Zongyue agreed, but he had never had a chance to use his Tai Chi spear. At this moment, he hunched over and stabbed out with his spear, accurately piercing the right leg of Jiannu who was fighting with Sheba. Almost at the same time, Sheba's narrow  The blade also pierced the chest of the slave, and it was too late for Wang Zongyue to scream, "Save him alive!"

    Mu Jingyan ran over and couldn't help but feel scared. He didn't expect that there was a Jiannu who was cheating to death. If this hurt Zhang Yuan, it would be a disaster. The Jian thieves were so fierce that they really couldn't be careless at all. Only then did he admire them.  Wang Zongyue stayed with Zhang Yuan's steady side, as well as Ma Kuoqi and Sheba——

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT OUT

    Ke Guangxian was very strange. He kept guarding the corpse of a Jiannu and refused to let the Jinyi guards search the body. The Jinyi guards informed Zhang Yuan that when Zhang Yuan came back, Ke Guangxian pointed at the corpse and said, "Master Zhang,  This Huerhan is Tong Nuer's adopted son." Ke Guangxian, who had always been silent, looked happy.

    The battle situation was urgent earlier. Zhang Yuan heard the Jiannu cavalry crying "Lord Hu Erhan" without thinking about it. At this time, the guest said this first, and he remembered that there was a copy of the governor of Liaodong in the Di newspaper in July last year.  Li Weihan's memorial stated that Nurhachi's adopted son Hu'erhan killed more than 50 Han people on the pretext that Ming Dynasty people crossed the Jinshitai boundary monument to cut trees in Jianzhou. Li Weihan strictly ordered Nurhaci to hand over Hu'erhan.  However, Nurhaci only killed 20 Jurchen tribe prisoners who were enemies of Jianzhou at the foot of Fushun City, even if they were handed over to the Ming Dynasty——

    Zhang Yuan looked at Hu'erhan's body on the ground. He looked about forty years old, with a broad face, short beard, and long arms. He should be Nurhachi's right-hand man, otherwise Nurhaci would not have done anything.  The adopted son, Zhang Yuan, said to Ruan Dacheng and others who came out of the temple: "This Hu'erhan was the culprit who killed more than fifty Ming people outside Fushun City last year. He died today at the hands of Mu Baihu, at the foot of Fenghuang Mountain.  , this is really a great thing about Skynet.”

    Keguang first said: "Master Zhang, Huerhan is still one of the five ministers established by Tong Nuer last year, and he is more noble than Nalan Baksh."

    "Five ministers!"

    Zhang Yuan raised his eyebrows, with a look of surprise. The five ministers were the most important contributors after the founding of the Later Jin Dynasty, second only to the four major Baylors. Zhang Yuan knew the important status of the five ministers in the Later Jin Dynasty, but he did not remember which five ministers they were.  I didn't know the Qing Dynasty, and I didn't expect that the Hu Erhan who died in front of me was one of the five ministers. With this person, the sacrifices of the Jin Yiwei and the Musketeers today would not be too aggrieved.

    Nalanbakshi in the prison car couldn't help but burst into tears when he heard that Horhan died in battle here. Just now he was hoping that the captain of the Army would rescue him and take revenge by killing all the Ming and Korean envoys.

    Hong Ji, Hong Xin and others all congratulated Mu Jingyan for his great achievements. Mu Jingyan is now trying to test the 100th household. This time he killed the important ministers who built the slaves, and he will definitely be promoted. It is possible to be deputy to the 100th or even the 1000th household.

    The rain had stopped long ago, and the red sun was shining calmly. Zhang Yuan interrogated the Jiannu cavalryman who had been wounded by a musket in Yaowang Temple. At first, the Jiannu cavalryman refused to speak, but when he saw the shackled Nalanbak,  What, the Jiannu cavalry was shocked and asked: "Master Erdeni, why are you here?"

    But it turns out that Huerhan and the others did not know about the North Korean coup. This time they sneaked into the Ming Dynasty not to rescue Nalan Baksh, they just came to rob. The snowstorm in Jianzhou area started last year.and floods, which killed many Jurchens. Without food or clothing, they came to rob the Han people on this side of the Liaodong border wall. This was the consistent style of the slaves. Hu'erhan, who was inspecting Kuandian, heard that the Ming Dynasty envoys went to Korea.  There were caravans following him from time to time, so he thought of plundering the envoys and making a fortune when they returned, but he unexpectedly lost his life here.
