Chapter 172: A bumpy return

The middle-aged man still persuaded: "General, this is a genuine Ming army, if you really do it, there will be no room for turning back in the future." ”

"Wang Xuan, why are you so verbose?" Ding Chengli frowned and said, "That Pingyu Marquis ......"

He felt that the word "capture" was inappropriate, and changed: "Then Lord Zheng has all returned to Shun, and there is a warlike army in Fujian?" I see that the Ming court has exhausted its strength, and this time the Eastern Army will win. ”

The "Eastern Army" he referred to was the Manchurian Army.

"To be a man, you should know and follow the trend." Ding Chengli continued to teach, "At this time, the robbery of this Ming army, not only was it captured, but it was still a military merit when Fujian changed in the coming days, why not?" ”

Huang Mingjun took the reins and looked back at the carriage in the middle of the line, because the car was too fast, and the road was bumpy, the whole car creaked, as if it would fall apart at any time.

Another carriage drove to his side, and Huang Daozhou lifted the curtain and probed from inside the car and said, "Huang Gebu, is it appropriate to let the team rest for a while?" In such a hurry, don't say that Her Royal Highness the Queen, even the old man will not be able to bear it. ”

In fact, Huang Mingjun rode a horse for days, and at this time, his hips were also in pain, and he said with a bitter face: "The queen is anxious to return to Tianxing Mansion to control the overall situation, and she strictly ordered that she must arrive at the lower reaches of Youxi today, and the lower officials have to march in such a hurry." ”

Huang Daozhou sighed and shook his head slightly, since he left Changting, he always felt that Empress Zeng's mind was too heavy.

The post road passes by a dense grove of trees. The men and horses of the "escort" had been marching in a hurry for many days, and at this time they were very tired and their vigilance had been reduced a lot, and although some scouts had glanced into the forest a few times, they did not investigate deeply.

Huang Daozhou was pondering whether to go with Huang Mingjun to persuade the queen to rest, when he heard the urgent sound of gongs and drums suddenly sounding in the forest on the side.

Huang Mingjun was taken aback, when the southern part of Yanping was infested with the army, could it be a bandit? How dare bandits hijack an army of thousands?!

He hurriedly ordered the soldiers to line up for defense, and personally led his henchmen to escort the queen's car and slowly retreated.

At this moment, nearly half of the people and horses had just walked through the dense forest, and it was Jiang Zhengxi's department who opened the way at the front, and he was surprised to hear that there was something wrong with the rear team, so he hurriedly turned his head.

Jiang Zhengxi's injuries had not healed, and he was so anxious that he loudly ordered his generals to return to the army to protect the queen and the prince, but he could only sit in the car and could not use his strength.

After only a moment, Huang Mingjun's people were still panicking, and they saw a group of people in the dense forest shouting, "General Bolo is killing 20,000 troops under the Blue Banner."

I saw that this group of people were all dressed in Ming military uniforms, but they had long braids on the back of their heads.

"The captives are coming!"

"Meet the enemy!"

"Don't panic!"

As soon as the various orders were issued, the thief army that poured out of the forest was attacked repeatedly, and Huang Mingjun's already extremely chaotic team retreated.

On the other side of the post road, there is a barren slope, the ground is very muddy, and it is difficult to pull out when you settle down.

After a few more rounds of guns were released by the captives in the forest, Huang Mingjun's troops had already collapsed.

Huang Mingjun saw that he couldn't restrain himself, so he had to take his own soldiers and more than 100 experienced soldiers to block in front of the queen's car and resist desperately.

Until Jiang Zhengxi's general led the team back to help, the momentum of the thief army turned to the east side, and Huang Mingjun's pressure here was slightly reduced, but there were still more than two or three hundred people surrounding him in the middle, and the sound of guns continued.

Huang Mingjun fought with these "Jianyu" for a while, but the more puzzled he became, he fought with the real Manchurian soldiers in Jianning, although he was defeated, but he still had some understanding of the combat methods of the Eight Banners Army - artillery, cavalry disrupted the formation, and the armored infantry fought a short decisive battle.

At present, although these people who attacked the queen and the crown prince have been shaved, their fighting style is more like that of the Ming army, and they are mostly at a distance, and they are not good at hand-to-hand combat.

It is precisely because of this that he has a chance to breathe, otherwise the other party will rush up with the advantage of numbers, and the people in the car behind him will definitely be difficult to protect!

With this plan, he urgently ordered his men to block the horses and vehicles around, hide in them, and only wait for the opportunity to fight back. A moment later, Huang Daozhou brought dozens of guards to help in the battle, and he barely stabilized the situation.

And Jiang Zhengxi's subordinates fell into a bitter battle.

Although there were only 1,7800 men under Nading Chengli, the Ming army was exhausted from many days of rapid marching, and was suddenly ambushed and caught off guard. Jiang Zhengxi's men and horses hurriedly came to the rescue, and the command and formation were out of order, and then affected by the collapse of Huang Mingjun's troops, there was a faint tendency to waver.

Three miles behind Huang Mingjun's team, Su Guansheng was lying bored in the car reading idle books.

It is also because King Chen's words are too weighty, before he left Changting, he told Huang Daozhou about the "battle record" of Su University students in Fuzhou who was cowardly in Fuzhou, which led to the collapse of the army, and instructed Huang Ge Lao Mo to mix Su Guansheng's department with the team.

As a result, Huang Daozhou discussed with Huang Mingjun and Jiang Zhengxi, and they all thought that they should strictly follow the advice of His Royal Highness King Chen, so they let Xinweijun follow the brigade a mile or two.

Su Guansheng vaguely heard the sound of a gun in front of him, and then someone galloped over, reporting that the front team was ambushed by Jianyu, and the situation was critical, and he asked Su University students to go for reinforcements.

Su Guansheng's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly grabbed the person who reported the news to inquire about the situation of the enemy army.

The messenger was also panicked, and casually said what he had just heard, "It seems that the main force of Bolo's men is 20,000 horses." ”

"Bolo's main force? Twenty thousand?! Su Guansheng buzzed in his head, and subconsciously looked around, but he didn't know where to run for a while.

On the side, Liu Ruolan, the general manager he brought from Guangdong, hurriedly urged: "Don't hesitate, my lord, the holy car is still in the front team, and it is important to save the driver!" ”

"Help?" Su Guansheng was just a clever man, and waved his hand at Liu Ruolan and said, "Yes, yes!" I order you to lead the army to the rescue, I, I will lead my own soldiers to cut off! ”

This Liu Ruolan was recommended to Su Guansheng by Zhu Linmiao Gu Yuanjing of Guangdong, who is quite familiar with the art of war and battle formation, and he can be regarded as brave, and when he heard this, he immediately bowed his hand and said, "Obey the order!" Turning around and getting on the horse, he asked the soldiers to hold the flag with the word "Su" all over the place, and said in a loud voice: "The whole army will go with me to escort!" ”

Then he shook the reins vigorously and galloped eastward.

Su Guansheng waited for the team to leave, hurriedly beckoned the guards beside him to turn around and head towards Datian City.

Besides, Liu Ruolan led the army for a while, but he didn't see his own boss when he turned around, he was about to rein in the horse, when he heard the sound of guns in his ears, so he lowered his head and groaned slightly, and finally drew his sword and pointed forward: "Follow me!" ”

The soldiers beside Huang Mingjun kept falling, and the military horses used for shelter around him had already been shot and fell to the ground, leaving only two carriages, but they were also beaten to the ground.

Empress Zeng held the little prince in her arms and huddled tightly in her carriage, and the constant explosion of fire outside the car frightened the baby to cry hoarsely.

Suddenly, there was a shout of killing on the west side, as if a large group of men and horses were coming. Immediately, Pang Tianshou knocked on the carriage vigorously and said excitedly: "Her Royal Highness the Queen, reinforcements!" It's reinforcements! ”

Because I am a pure newcomer in Xiachun, I kneel down and beg for various subscriptions, recommendations, monthly passes, and collections, thank you very much for your support!
