Chapter 897: Capturing Hong Chengchou alive
On the fourth watch, Li Chengdong took his subordinates to the outside of the barracks, and the bannermen who reported the news showed Hong Chengchou's warrant to the Eight Banners guarding the camp gate, and the bannermen outside the camp gate immediately moved the fence and let Li Chengdong out of the camp.
Li Chengdong and his entourage walked not far away, at the gate of the camp where the soldiers lived, and the banner man showed the warrant again before transferring 1,000 Xuzhou soldiers out of the barracks.
Hong Chengchou monitored the defenders in the city very strictly, each battalion lived in separate places, the soldiers were separated, and the camp gate was guarded by bannermen.
In this way, even if someone wants to rebel, it is not easy for the battalions to connect with each other, and it is not easy for the officers to mobilize their troops, but if a battalion rebels, he can quickly suppress it.
At this time, Li Chengdong and Li Yuanyin were walking towards Beicheng and discussing anxiously.
Li Yuanyin whispered and said eagerly: "Father, I thought I would promise Li Dudu that there would be no problems, now the Wei army is ambushing outside the west gate, but Hong Chengchou is going to the north gate, how can this be good?" ”
Li Chengdong's face was gloomy, and his hand clenched the handle of the knife, "I can't care so much, wealth and wealth are in danger, then you look at my eyes, fight!" ”
While speaking, Li Chengdong had already come to Beicheng, where thousands of Qing troops had gathered, and the Eight Banners stopped his soldiers and horses, and then led him to Hong Chengchou.
"Li Junmen is a little surprised!" Hong Chengchou saw Li Chengdong coming over, and said with a smile: "I have thought twice about Gushan Ezhen, and I think it is safer to go to the north gate, and Li Junmen will not have an opinion." ”
Hong Chengchou trusts Li Chengdong, but years of experience have allowed him to keep a hand.
Li Chengdong said in his heart, you just don't trust the general at all, but he said with a smile on his face: "How dare you have an opinion, and the adult is also for the sake of safety." ”
"Good!" Hong Chengchou looked at Li Chengdong and said solemnly: "The combat power of Xuzhou Town, this official knows, and many banner soldiers are inferior to you. As soon as the city gate opens, you go in front, and the official is behind, if you succeed in breaking through, the official will definitely not treat you badly. ”
"Humble command!" Li Chengdong had a low face, "Thank you, Lord for your support." ”
Hong Chengchou and Bahana glanced at each other, the latter nodded, indicating that it was ready, and Hong Chengchou spoke: "Open the city gate, quietly go out of the city, and don't let go until you have to." ”
At this time, the masonry of the city gate had been moved open by the soldiers, and more than a dozen bannermen opened the heavy city gate with a creak.
Li Chengdong returned to the team, turned over and got on the horse, Li Yuanyin asked: "Father, do you want to win the door?" ”
Li Chengdong shook his head, a large number of Eight Banners gathered on both sides of the city gate, and his team passed through the street like a long snake, easy to be flanked, "Let's talk about it when we go out of the city." The Wei army is all horse army, the reaction speed should not be slow, let's get out of the city, wait for Hong Chengchou to come out, and then rush back. ”
A thousand soldiers from Xuzhou Town walked out of the north gate, and after they finished, Bahana suddenly waved his hand, so that Hong Chengchou could lead the army out of the city.
At this time, it was the darkest time of the night before dawn, the northern suburbs of Jinzhou were silent, and the Qing soldiers walked nervously outside the city, without any movement.
Seeing this, Bahana couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, "Master Hong's hand is really clever, and when the Wei thief accepts the city defense tomorrow morning, we will have already traced." ”
Hong Chengchou also let out a breath of turbidity, but he didn't dare to be careless, he said in a deep voice: "Gushan, you can't be careless!" Out of Jinzhou City, we still need to bypass the Wei thieves near the Daling River before we can return to Shengjing safely. ”
Bahana nodded, "Well, Master Hong is right, we still need ~"
The two were talking, but there was a sound of horses' hooves and footsteps in front of them, Hong Chengchou and Bahana immediately felt a pang in their hearts, and when they got closer, they saw that it was Li Chengdong and Li Yuanyin who turned back.
"What's the matter with you two?" Seeing this, Bahana asked unhappily.
"What are you going to do!" Hong Chengchou's heart was cold, he saw Li Yuanyin's hideous face by the moonlight, his eyes were sharp, and he pounced viciously, so frightened that he hurriedly reined in the horse's reins, as if he had seen a poisonous snake.
Li Chengdong and Li Yuanyin didn't answer, stood up their horses, and continued to rush towards them.
Bahana saw that something was wrong, and immediately shouted angrily, "Li Chengdong, you will stop Ben!" ”
Hong Chengchou's face turned pale and he was terrified, "It's not good, stop them!" ”
Li Yuanyin clamped the horse's belly and stabbed with a lance, "Kill!" ”
Behind him, a thousand soldiers from Xuzhou Town roared loudly, picked up their weapons and charged back.
The Eight Banners soldiers who went out of the city did not expect a sudden change and were killed by surprise, and the army was in chaos in the night.
In the west of Jinzhou City, Hu Dawei was ambushed in the grass several miles away, waving his hand and slapping mosquitoes, secretly scolding in his heart why the Qing army had not left the city.
At this time, the northern suburbs suddenly shook the sky, and the sound of guns was repeated, and Hu Dawei was shocked, and then he was furious, "The old thief is really cunning!" Quick, get the knife! ”
Hu Dawei hurriedly turned over and got on the horse, Ma Ben brought the big knife, he picked up the long handle with his feet, took the knife in his hand, and immediately clamped the horse's belly, "With this will be killed!" ”
At this time, in the camp of the Wei army in the southern city, Li Dingguo was also dressed neatly and walked out of the big tent, he listened to the shouting and killing in the northern suburbs, not in the western suburbs, and immediately ordered: "Ordered Hu Dawei, Wu Guozhu, and Gao Youcai to directly seize the city, ignore the northern suburbs, in case the sound of the east attacking the west, and then order Wang Yongqiang to reinforce the northern suburbs, don't let Hong Chengchou go." ”
In an instant, inside and outside Jinzhou City, the sound of killing was everywhere, and the flames soared into the sky.
In the city, Bai Guangen rushed out of the barracks, and one of his subordinates ran over and shouted hoarsely, "The general is not good, Lord Hong and Bahana Gushan have slipped away, and the Wei army is about to enter the city!" ”
When Bai Guangen heard this, there was an explosion in his head, and he was so shocked that the three souls and six spirits were out of his body, and then his face was furious, it was really fucking not authentic, Hong Chengchou slipped away and didn't call me.
"How is the general good now, how is this good?" At this time, a group of Qing army generals ran over and asked in a rambling manner.
Bai Guangen's face was pale, he didn't say a word, he suddenly sighed and said, "It's come to this, what are you doing in a daze, waiting to be killed?" If you want to fall, you will fall, and if you want to escape, flee quickly, and what are you doing standing here! ”
In an instant, Zhou Duoqing's army was in an uproar and dispersed in a hurry.
······
In the northern suburbs, Hong Chengchou fled in a hurry, and behind him Li Chengdong and Bahana fought together, but Li Yuanyin chased after him.
Hong Chengchou has been on the battlefield for a long time, but after all, he is a civilian official, and he was frightened when he saw this.
At this time, returning to the city was also certain death, so Hong Chengchou did not return to the city, but ran diagonally on his horse, trying to bypass the rebels.
He galloped for a while, the sound of killing grew away, and in the darkness he didn't know where he had fled.
At this time, Hong Chengchou looked around, the surroundings were pitch black, and there was a faint sound of hooves in the distance, it should be Li Yuanyin's little cub chasing him.
Hong Chengchou sneered, pulled out the horse and continued to flee forward, suddenly a tripwire stretched on the ground, the war horse neighed, and he fell to the ground, Hong Chengchou's body lost his balance and was thrown out, his mind was instantly blank, and only one thought remained, "Oops, it's over!" ”
At this time, more than a dozen Wei soldiers around him swarmed up, held him down to death, and almost crushed him to death.
At this time, almost at the moment when Hong Chengchou was captured, countless torches were suddenly lit in the wilderness in the northern suburbs, Yuan Shizhong rode a horse and stationed, and the soldier reported on one knee, "General, you caught a big fish!" ”
