Chapter 860: First Strike, First Strike
It was Han Dengping, the general of the Hukou garrison, who was hit by the stone, and his entire right hand was stained red with blood, and the sergeant hurriedly carried him into the city tower for treatment.
Although the shoulder is not a vital part, the sharp stone is very deep, and it is estimated that it has touched the bones, and the worst thing is that the stone has been broken into many small pieces, so when the military doctor took out all the gravel, Han Shoubei fainted in pain, plus he lost too much blood, his face was as pale as paper, and it is estimated that he has lost half his life.
Fortunately, now that the wound stitching method has been popularized in the army, the military doctor sewed the wound after cleaning Han Garrison, but successfully stopped the bleeding, if it is not inflamed, Han Garrison should be able to save his life.
"Fortunately, this flowstone only hit the arm, if it hits the head, Han Shoubei will give an account for his life." Wang Bogu had palpitations in his heart.
Zhang Yin nodded and agreed: "It's really a great luck in misfortune." ”
Xu Jin frowned, glanced at Zhang Yin thoughtfully, and had an indescribable strange feeling in his heart, recalling the stone cannon just now, most of the stones had smashed to the foot of the city wall, and only scattered small stones flew up to the city, but the landing point was not nearby, and hitting the Han garrison was only a very small stone, which should have been splashed gravel.
So the question is, since the stones are not nearby, where did the gravel that hit the Korean garrison come from?
If it weren't for Xue Bingxin's reminder, Xu Jin probably wouldn't have considered this issue, and would only treat it as an accident, but now that he learned that Zhang Yin might be the head of the Maitreya Sect, he was on guard everywhere, and naturally thought about it more.
Just as Xu Jin was pondering, Sergeant Yiming ran in and reported loudly with a strange expression: "Lord Qincha, Lord General Soldier, the Tartars have withdrawn!" ”
"What?" Everyone exclaimed.
Xu Jin hurriedly led the generals out of the city tower and looked outside the city, at this time it was completely dark, and sure enough, he saw the Tartar cavalry holding torches slowly retreating, the rear army became the front army, and the front army became the rear army, which was clearly a sign that the whole army was retreating.
The pro-soldier Zhao Datou stroked his big head, and said with an incredulous expression: "What kind of medicine is sold in the tartar gourd?" Running to kill Hu Kou in a big way, is it just to test the return gun? His grandmother's, I can't figure it out! ”
Not only Zhao Datou couldn't figure it out, but all the generals present, including Xu Jin, couldn't figure it out, I Daqin led tens of thousands of troops to kill Hukou murderously, and he didn't even sit on the buttocks, but just tried to shoot two return guns and retreated, what about children playing with mud and sand?
"The last general thought that the Tartars were playing a suspicious plan, and deliberately retreated to lead us out of the city to pursue." Zhang Wu, the commander of the Ping Yuwei, said in a deep voice.
He Lixing, the commander of the Zhenyu Guard, immediately retorted: "Unlikely, not long ago, the Tartars assembled the siege equipment vigorously, obviously planning to attack, how could it be possible to make the enemy suspicious of the enemy for a while, in my opinion, nine times out of ten, I found that his siege equipment was defective, plus there were tens of thousands of heavy soldiers guarding Hukou, he thought that he could not attack, so he gave up decisively." ”
"Well, Commander He Zhang is reasonable, but will the Tartars be going to attack other passes?" Zhang Yin accosted.
Xu Jin looked at the Tatar cavalry outside the city that retreated like a tide, and retreated so decisively, it didn't seem like a suspicious tactic, could it be that something big suddenly happened inside the Tatars, so that the angry Otan had to withdraw his troops?
However, what Zhang Yin said is not impossible, I replied that it was difficult to attack Hukou, so he turned to attack other passes, but this possibility is small, after all, I only tried to fire two return cannons, and did not really attack the city, a person who came with monstrous anger, and withdrew his troops without even starting the trial attack, which is obviously unlikely, unless he encounters a reason to withdraw the army.
Of course, in any case, it is always not wrong to be careful to make a ship of ten thousand years, so Xu Jin immediately ordered to send envoys to inform the defenders of the Great Wall Pass overnight to be vigilant, and Xuanfu and Yulin also sent people to inform them, so as not to be caught off guard.
In fact, as Xu Jin expected, something really happened inside Tatar, and I had to retreat in a hurry to return to Fengzhou River.
It turned out that this morning, didn't Xie Erjian and Qi Jingtong meet the leader of Ordos on the edge of the Yellow River, Mai Li Gen, the unlucky Mai Li Gen Jinong was first seriously injured by the flowering bullet, and then fell off his horse and broke several ribs, and soon after escaping back to the sweat tent, he was seriously injured and died.
Just now, I received the news of the death of my brother Melgen, and I couldn't help but be shocked, and immediately ordered the withdrawal of troops, and he was going to Ordos overnight.
Alta and Mailigan are brothers of the same mother, and the two have a deep relationship, and they are naturally very sad to receive the news of their brother's death, but the main purpose of the reason why they hurriedly retreated to Ordos is to receive the power of his brother.
Melligon is only in his early thirties, although he has children under his knees, but he is still young, and he can't control those arrogant soldiers and fierce generals, not to mention that the Ordos Department occupies the Hetao Plain with abundant water and grass, and several other Tatar households are all salivating, once the news of Melgen's death spreads, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not reach out and snatch it.
As the saying goes, the fertile water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, and I am already a heroic figure, coupled with the instigation of Zhao Quan, he immediately decided to withdraw his troops and rush to Ordos, first take over his brother's territory and army, and then it is not too late to find the Ming army for revenge.
After about an hour, the tens of thousands of troops of Alta had retreated, completely disappearing into the dark night, and soon the scouts sent out to inquire about the news returned one after another to report that the Tartar cavalry had indeed retreated, and that it was not a suspicious tactic, and that they had not turned to attack other passes of the Great Wall.
The generals breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the report, but they were puzzled, and Xu Jin was even more sure that something big had happened inside the Tatars, and it was estimated that there would be definite news in ten days and eight days, hey, if the tens of thousands of households inside the Tartars fought, it would be even better.
Now that the Tartars have retreated, all the border troops have eased down, and they will finally be able to sleep peacefully tonight, and the generals have retreated after bidding farewell to Xu Jin.
After Xu Jin returned to his residence, he wrote a good news on the spot, reporting that the Shenji Battalion had destroyed Bansheng City, and that he was rushing to the capital for eight hundred miles.
"Brother-in-law, are you looking for me?" Xie Sangun pushed the door into the study and saw Xu Jin playing with a small sharp pebble.
Xu Jin casually threw the stone to Xie Sangun and asked, "Sangun, if you are asked to shoot people with this stone, can it reach deep into the bones?" ”
"I'm definitely not good, second brother reluctantly, but if I let my father make a move, it is estimated that it can have this effect, using this thing as a secret weapon, not only to test eyesight and finger strength, but also to be quite pure, as far as I know, my father can!" Xie Sangun said and rolled his eyes: "Brother-in-law is suspicious...... Zhang Yin? ”
Xu Jin nodded solemnly, he carefully recalled the situation at that time, and also observed the landing point of the few stones that flew up to the city, the angle and distance of the debris splash were unlikely to hit the Han garrison, and the position where the Han garrison was located was between himself and Zhang Yin, if there was no Han garrison to block it, it was estimated that this stone would come straight to him.
Xie Sangun frowned and said, "Brother-in-law, as the saying goes, it's better to believe what you have than what you don't have." Otherwise, let's strike first, and continue to keep Zhang Yin by his side, it's too dangerous! ”
Xu Jin nodded slowly, although there was no evidence to prove that Zhang Yin was Li Fuda, but he absolutely believed in Xue Bingxin, and planned to wait for Han Dajie to send someone to investigate before making a move, but after this incident, Xu Jin felt that it was better to be impeached afterwards than to risk his own life.
Xie Sangun saw Xu Jin nodding, and immediately said, "Brother-in-law, the night is long and dreamy, I will take someone to tie up Zhang Yin!" ”
Xu Jin hurriedly waved his hand to stop it, Zhang Yin himself has strong martial arts, and there must be many henchmen under his command who are diehard, maybe the entire Yulinwei has been infiltrated and assimilated by him, so he must be cautious when arresting him, so as not to cause chaos.
"Three guns, you go and call Lao Wang and Zhao Datou!" Xu Jin commanded, and Xie Sangun immediately ran to call Wang Lin'er and the backbone of the Divine Machine Battalion......
Early the next morning, Xu Jin ordered the three armies to be rewarded for their exploits in the Shenji Battalion and Yulinwei.
A banquet was held in the garrison mansion of Hukou Guancheng, and the generals of more than 1,000 households attended the banquet, and Zhang Yin, as the protagonist of this banquet, was able to sit at the same table with Lord Qincha.
Just when the wine was hot, the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion suddenly rushed in and controlled all the generals of Yulinwei, and Zhang Yin himself was also resisted by more than a dozen flintlock guns.
Zhang Yin was shocked and angry, regretting that his intestines were blue, he stared at Xu Jin who was sitting at the same table with a gloomy face: "What does Lord Qincha mean by this?" ”
Wang Bogu and the commanders of the guards were all frightened, and they sat in their seats and did not dare to move.
Xu ...... Lord Xu, what are you? If you have something to say, beware of going too far! Mr. Wang swallowed his saliva hard and asked.
Xu Jin smiled and said, "You don't have to panic, this official only caught the White Lotus thief today!" ”
"White Lotus anti-thief?" Wang Bogu and the generals couldn't help but look at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Zhang Yin, who was held up by more than a dozen guns.
Zhang Yin's heart was shocked, it turned out that his identity was exposed, and he was secretly lucky to prepare for a desperate fight, but he sneered on his lips: "If you want to add to the crime, there is no word, the last general will offend Lord Xu somewhere, and Lord Xu wants to slander me like this!" ”
Xu Jin said lightly: "Is it slander, Commander Zhang knows that the Japanese officials have received a report that Zhang Yin is Li Fuda, the head of the White Lotus Anti-Thief Maitreya Sect!" ”
"Li Fuda !!" Wang Bogu couldn't help but exclaim, all the generals changed their faces greatly, after all, this one is too famous in Shanxi.
