Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the scene played out by Pyro Man, the demon-hearted Taoist priest killed two people and then left gracefully. This should be a messy murder scene.  But what Sony and others saw was peaceful except for the leg exposed from the tree hole.  In this way, even if he is not an accomplice, he is definitely someone who does not want the pursuers of the Jin Kingdom to discover this place.

    Dorgon's face was uncertain. He looked at Mang Gurtai, but the big Baylor said happily: "Chase!"

    The Jurchens are not afraid of anything except that their master will be unhappy.

    The knights all chased in the direction where the burning man disappeared, disappearing into the dense mountains and forests of Liaodong.

    ¡­¡­

    The reinforcements from Shanhaiguan finally arrived in Jinzhou.  Qiu Hejia, the governor of Liaodong, finally drove out the reinforcements indeed "rushed" because no one was willing to save the siege of Daling River.  Although the generals of Liaodong seemed to be of the same spirit, at the critical moment of life and death, no one was willing to run away and be buried.

    This is not because the Jianzhou cavalry beat them hard and frightened the generals.  It is also because these generals are not stupid and have the ability to know themselves and their enemies.  Each of their men had eaten most of their free wages. When they went up to the peak to recruit troops, they went around to catch farmers and beggars who were about to die of starvation. If they had a wooden stick, they would be fully equipped. If they had a single piece of clothing, it would be considered complete.  Well equipped.

    How could such a force be able to defeat the Jurchens who were plundering property for themselves?  Knowing this level, you can understand why the Ming army generals collapsed at the first touch, but after surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, they were all brave and good at fighting.

    However, these generals are fed by the imperial court after all.  Sixty percent of Emperor Chongzhen's millions of Liao salaries every year fell on Guan Ning's army, and he refused to contribute even after taking so much money.  That really makes no sense.  Therefore, these generals finally drove the "soldiers" to the Daling River.

    Sun Chengzong also moved his headquarters to Jinzhou.  It feels like living or dying with the city.  He was a little more confident about victory this time, mainly because the Ming strangers were finally willing to come out of the wilderness.  After serving the country, there is also trust in kind people.  This trust was also passed on to Xiao Yisheng and Fu Yuze.

    In this rescue, these two experts will also accompany the Chinese army.

    The coaches leading the reinforcements are Zhang Chun and Wu Xiang.  Zhang Chun was considered a somewhat honest general in Qian Yiqun's previous life. After he fell into an enemy camp and was captured, he refused to shave his head and surrender, and was eventually imprisoned in Sanguan Temple in Shenyang to die of old age.  As for Wu Xiang, he was a businessman in his early years. He later passed the Wu Jinshi exam. Legend has it that the examiner cheated and later married Zu Dashou's sister and was included in the Liaodong general system.

    Xiao Yisheng, Fu Yuze and others.  It was with such an army that was entangled between freezing to death, starving to death, and being killed by Jurchens.  Also accompanying them were the Bai brothers and Gu Meiniang.  Qian Wei wanted to protect Yang Ai, so he was left in Shanhaiguan and became the protector of the Yuqing Zongtan.

    "Why do I feel that these Guan Ning troops are not very reliable?" Fu Yuze was a layman with little life experience, but he could see that Wu Xiang, Zhang Chun and their soldiers did not look like troops capable of fighting.

    Xiao Yisheng had no idea about this at all. He just looked at the soldiers around him, shook his head and said: "They are all so weak that they will fall down after being pricked with a finger."

    Bai Feng on the side said: "These are auxiliary soldiers, the generals' servants can still fight."

    If the generals have 10,000 troops under their command.  Usually there are only about 4,000 soldiers, which is called empty pay.

    ????????????????Among the four thousand soldiers, about hundreds of them are servants and can receive full pay before the war.  Others can only get half salary, and even half of the salary is in arrears.  Just hang on to your life with a mouthful of rice.  This is drinking the blood of soldiers.

    Bai Feng had heard a little bit about this, but when he actually saw it, he still felt a little shocked.

    Bai Sha urged his horse forward and said: "These are not auxiliary soldiers. They are fighting soldiers." He pointed to the empty-handed people behind him and said: "Those are the auxiliary soldiers."

    "Isn't that a civilian husband?" Bai Feng was a little surprised.

    Bai Sha shook his head: The civilian husband didn¡¯t even have clothes.  Moreover, it requires the utmost physical labor, and from time to time someone will die on the roadside.

    Gu Meiniang is a woman.  As well as the "disciples" of the kindhearted people, who had the privilege of riding in a carriage, they closed the curtains early and couldn't bear to look at the miserable situation outside.

    "How can we fight here?" Xiao Yisheng scratched his head.

    As if to answer A Niu¡¯s question, a sound of drums and bugles soon came from the front, which was the front army joining the enemy.

    "There are enemies!" Xiao Yisheng shouted, "Let's go to the front!"

    Fu Yuze really doesn¡¯t want to charge into the battle. He is a Taoist priest, not a soldier?  Not a penny of millions of dollars in salary fell on his head!  And since the battle at Qibao Tower, he has understood a truth: no matter how powerful the mystic arts are, they cannot withstand large numbers of people.  This Ming army has 150,000 people, so the number of slaves?The interception troops will never be less than tens of thousands.  In this sea of ??people, even Zhang Tianshi would probably be consumed to death.

    "Master, I'm sorry, I didn't curse you to death"

    Fu Yuze apologized silently in his heart, just in time to avoid responding to Xiao Yisheng.  He didn't like A Niu at first, especially when Liu Dingding married A Niu: a good wife often sleeps with her clumsy husband.

    "Don't rush in. In this kind of encounter, the army will be defeated as soon as the formation is in chaos." Bai Feng had read two military books and quickly stopped Xiao Yisheng who was eager to try.

    "It has been defeated" Bai Sha pointed to the commotion in front of the crowd.

    The long snake-like queue spread out as expected, like a black tide, coming back.  The supervising team stepped forward and chopped off several heads with their swords, finally stopping the disintegration.

    Zhang Chun ordered the servants to come forward to fight, which finally inspired some fighting spirit of the soldiers, and they charged towards Jiannu's front army.  Although the Ming army suffered a setback, it was not a major defeat.

    In the time and space of Qian Yiqun, the golden soldier facing Zhang Chun and Wu Xiang at this moment was Dorgon with the white flag.  The white flag is Nurhachi's yellow flag, which has strong combat effectiveness.  And now Prince Rui is leading his personal entourage to hunt down Qian Yiqun in the vast forest, so this time it is the Mongolian left and right wings who are responsible for the interception.

    Although the fighting power of the Mongols is much weaker than that of the Jurchens, especially in recent years, severe drought in Liaodong has led to famine, and the supplies of the Mongols have also been withheld, resulting in further weakening of their strength.  However, they encountered a weaker Ming army.  They became a strong force, even if they were temporarily blocked.  It still occupies the initiative on the battlefield.

    "I'm going to help!" Xiao Yisheng urged the big Shandong mule on his crotch and ran forward along the roadside.

    The Shandong mule has good endurance and strength.  The shoulder height can be one and a half meters, which is taller than a Mongolian horse. Therefore, in order to please the kind people, Wu Xiang specially found a handsome big mule for A Niu to ride on.  Although it looked a bit strange in the army, Aniu was still very happy.

    He has never ridden anything in his life.

    "I'll go too." Fu Yuze was afraid that Gu Meiniang would look down on him if he stayed behind, so he had to bite the bullet and said.

    Bai Feng didn¡¯t say anything and just followed Bai Sha on horseback to chase him forward.

    The Ming army disintegrated much faster than everyone expected. Xiao Yisheng was halfway through the charge and was just in time to withdraw Zhang Chun from the front.

    Zhang Chun saw Xiao Yisheng.  Suddenly a surge of hope arose, and he shouted affectionately: "Help me, strong man!"

    Xiao Yisheng roared: "Okay." He shook the reins and rushed forward.

    Before Zhang Chun could react, he saw Bai Feng reining up his horse in front of him and said: "Commander Zhang, the brave will win when we meet on a narrow road. There are dense forests on both sides. Once you break up, you will only be hugged like a rabbit. It's better to reorganize the front."  , fight again.¡±

    Zhang Chun, with a charred face, said: "The Mongolian cavalry are tyrannical. We are no match for them. I have summoned Wu Junmen behind and asked him to set up camp according to the danger. We can only resist step by step and retreat while fighting."

    Bai Feng said: "Students are not familiar with military affairs. Let's go to the front and have a look."

    Just as he was talking, Fu Yuze also caught up with him, and the two of them rode forward together.  Along the way there were retreating troops.  Only one of Zhang Chun's retainers was still resisting in front.  These people are fully paid and have iron armor and sharp weapons.  There is wine and meat on weekdays, and exercise every five days.  They are considered the best among the best.  At this moment, Zhang Chun did not let him down. Everyone fought hard. From time to time, some people were shot off their horses by Mongolian riders, but they still kept fighting.

    A Niu rushed to the front, his blood suddenly surged, he jumped off the mule with a loud roar, took out a 130 kilogram diamond staff and rushed forward.  He was born with divine power. Although his spiritual power was mediocre and even weaker than that of ordinary people, he learned the authentic lion's roar from his father-in-law after awakening. When he charged, he roared loudly, which was quite intimidating.

    The two Mongolian riders rushing in front were stunned for a moment, and they saw a shining golden mallet approaching rapidly.

    boom!

    The two people who were hit by the diamond staff immediately flew backwards. The Mongolian rider behind them was so frightened that they subconsciously stopped their horses and looked at the square brick that suddenly jumped out.

    "A certain Xiao Yisheng is here, who dares to come forward and fight!" A Niu roared loudly, causing the surrounding woods to tremble, and rustling leaves falling like rain and snow.

    The current few Mongolian riders felt as if their chests had been hit by a sledgehammer. They vomited blood and fell off their horses.

    Fu Yuze caught up and happened to see this situation, and thought to himself: Hey, could it be that this was the case when Zhang Fei drank up the Changban River?

    Bai Feng is not good at horse fighting, but if he jumps off his horse, he will only become a stake for the cavalry. He hesitates while sitting on the horse.

    During the stalemate, Fu Yuze took out his Mao Jun pen and drew the talisman in the air, but did not send it out.  His left hand came out of his sleeve andHe took out a talisman paper, which matched the empty talisman, and finally used Mao Jun's pen to type it out.

    The Mongolians didn¡¯t know what the flying talisman meant. Before they could react, they felt their bodies were heavy and they tried hard to move the horse¡¯s head, but the horse was also slow to respond.  At this moment, the talismans in the air burst into dazzling blue light, and the crackle of electricity suddenly sounded.

    "Haha, what about the little thunder in my Tianshi Mansion!" Fu Yuze first used the Mao Jun Pen to delay the riders to prevent them from escaping, and then attacked with the Zhengyi Thunder Snake Talisman. I saw a stream of electric current passing between the Mongolian horses and horses.  A huge power grid was connected, and its power was far beyond what it was when he fought Qian Yiqun that day.

    Fu Yuze was also shocked by his progress, and was secretly proud: If Master Zhang saw it, I'm afraid he would have to praise me too!

    Xiao Yisheng pushed the Vajra Staff behind his back, exerted his strength with one step, and rushed forward. He swung the heavy staff and swept it across.

    "Arrow!" the Mongolian general behind shouted loudly, having already replaced his horse bow with his hand.

    Although the horse bow can only use light arrows, it is enough to kill a target without armor.

    The light arrow made a whooshing sound as it shot through the air, shooting towards A Niu.

    Fu Yuze's heart tightened, he waved the Mao Jun pen in his hand, pushed it with his left hand, and heard a copper bell trembling, and a golden bell of light fell from the sky, covering Aniu inside.

    The arrow hit the light bell.  They made a clanging sound and fell to the ground one after another.

    The light bell also broke in response to the sound.

    "shoot!"

    The Mongolians followed up with a second round.  They couldn't see what was happening just now.  Thinking that the brick-like Han man in front of him had some invulnerability, he blocked the arrows one after another.  Therefore, this time they were all shot towards A Niu's eyes, throat, crotch and other "vital gates".

    Fu Yuze has not yet recovered his breath.  Then he saw that the second round of arrows had been shot out again, and he felt extremely anxious, as if he had seen A Niu's body lying on the spot.

    "Get out!" A Niu shouted violently and rushed forward to meet the arrow.

    Zhang Chun¡¯s servants were so stunned that they all froze on the spot and even forgot to respond to the charge.

    A Niu waved his diamond staff to deflect the oncoming arrows, but several arrows still hit his body and arms.  A Niu just froze for a moment, then jumped up again.  He rushed towards the nearest Mongolian rider with an arrow, and smashed the Mongolian staff on the head, smashing the Mongolian to pieces. Even the mount under his crotch could not withstand the huge force and fell to the ground whining.

    "Brothers! Kill!" The servants finally came to their senses and were inspired by A Niu's bravery. They reorganized their ranks, raised their lances and sabers, and charged towards the Mongols.

    Fu Yuze¡¯s empty talisman was sent out again.  The Mongols were trapped in the mud, and each one became a target for the cavalry, allowing them to be killed.

    "Kill!" Fu Yuze's high-pitched voice blended into the sounds of fighting on the battlefield, and caught the horse's belly.  Then he rushed forward.

    Bai Feng also kept pace with him, drawing his sword to protect Fu Yuze's side.

    For a moment, the situation on the battlefield was reversed.  On the contrary, the Mongolian vanguards retreated one after another.

    Zhang Chun heard something wrong behind him and saw that there was no large group of troops retreating.  He quickly reined in his horse and sent someone to investigate.  As a result, they heard that the troops behind the palace were actually chasing the Mongols, and they quickly sent an order to withdraw their troops.  Let the auxiliary soldiers dig trenches, deploy defensive horses, and prepare for a steady attack.  He sent someone to ask Wu Xiang to bring people up, and he also led his team of servants to come forward to meet the brothers at the rear.

    These gods are indeed extraordinary!

    Zhang Chun thought to himself that he had confidence in sending troops this time.

    A Niu was so jealous of the killing that even the servant cavalry did not dare to charge. He was still charging towards the Mongolian front.  The Mongols sent out spearmen, and as if they were facing a formidable enemy, they set up a hedgehog formation. Only then did Aniu spit and withdrew.

    Looking at the "enemy general" who had been shot into a little hedgehog, the Mongolian general suddenly found that he was relieved.

    You can¡¯t even shoot this!

    ¡°It¡¯s not just the Mongolians who have this idea, but even their own people have this feeling.

    Eighteen arrows!

    A Niu returned to the Ming army's formation with eighteen arrows. Only five of them were light arrows, and the other thirteen were heavy arrows from the foot bow.  This kind of heavy arrow can shoot through two layers of armor and kill a person at a distance of twenty steps.  But A Niu didn't take it seriously. He sat on the stool with a golden sword, waiting for the military doctor to take the arrow for him.

    "The strong man is really a god!" Zhang Chun cupped his hands and said with sincere admiration, "In my whole life as a young general, I have never seen a man as brave as Xiao Zhuangshi."

    The servants gathered in a circle and nodded in agreement, sincerely feeling incredible.

    "Strong man," the military doctor said timidly, "these arrows have barbs on them. I have to cut the flesh around the arrow clusters to take them out."

      "Then cut them off." A Niu said disapprovingly, then turned to Zhang Chun and said: "Actually, they are also human beings. They will die if they are hit with a stick. There is nothing to be afraid of, right? Don't run away next time."

    Zhang Chun blushed to his neck when A Niu spoke and was speechless for a long time.

    A Niu didn't expect him to answer either. He was gasping in pain as the military doctor cut open his muscles.

    Everyone¡¯s eyelids jumped when they saw it, but A Niu said a little embarrassedly: ¡°I didn¡¯t feel it when I was hit by the arrow just now, but now it hurts a little.¡±

    The military doctor's hands were still steady, but he thought in his heart: This strong man really doesn't know what he ate to grow up, his skin and flesh are as good as wild boar skin!

    "If my junior brother were here, those Mongolian soldiers would not be able to escape." A Niu dispersed his thoughts and said, "I wonder if he has reached the Daling River now."

    Zhang Chun finally came to his senses and felt a lingering fear: If I let Hou Shenxian¡¯s senior brother die here, I¡¯m afraid this will be the end of my life!

    He was secretly annoyed by his carelessness just now, and shouted loudly: "You are wearing heavy armor and don't dare to rush forward. Look at this strong man Xiao! Isn't he worthy of Sha Er and others!"

    The servants were all ashamed and did not dare to speak out.

    "Quick! Get the triple armor and give it to Xiao Zhuangshi!" Zhang Chun shouted, suddenly feeling stupid again: Although this brick-like man is very strong, the triple armor is not light either.

    According to Qi Jiguang and Qi Shaobao's design, the heavy infantry should be able to wear a layer of leather armor in addition to the regular uniforms, a chain armor in addition to the leather armor, and a layer of iron armor in addition to the chain armor, so as to defend against attacks such as slashing and stabbing.  kind of attack.  He selected the strongest among the Yiwu soldiers and formed a heavy armored force. They did not give in when facing the Mongolian cavalry.

    However, although triple armor has high defensive power, if the materials of the armor are not cut corners, it will have to carry a weight of seventy or eighty kilograms in combat.  Coupled with the weight of the weapon and the physical exertion in combat, who among ordinary people can bear it?

    However, Xiao Yisheng is not an ordinary person.

    Three layers of cowhide leather armor, thirty kilograms of steel ring chainmail, Zhang Chun's own mountain-patterned armor, two layers of old cowhide belts, and a bright helmet with red tassels This outfit counts.  It weighs a full one hundred kilograms when it comes down.

    "Well, it's a bit awkward." A Niu shook his body and made a sound of iron armor rubbing against each other.

    "The Mongols are coming!" War drums were playing in front.

    A Niu didn't dare to restrain himself anymore. He picked up the Vajra Staff with a bang and ran towards the front line. He couldn't wait to try the effect of wearing armor.

    Zhang Chun looked at the bloody hands of the military doctor on the side who had not yet washed them clean, and couldn't help but thought to himself: If there were a hundred such warriors, wouldn't I be able to fight as far as Shenyang?
