Chapter 715 Trapped in Ma'anshan

At noon, the scorching sun of July was shining, the sky was cloudless, the sky was blue, birds were squeaking in the woods in the distance, and a group of dozens of cavalry suddenly appeared in the wilderness.

The cavalrymen stood in a field with wild grasses on their horses, and the cavalry led by them looked around, and the surrounding cavalry approached and looked around vigilantly.

The summer was scorching, the sun was like fire, and several horsemen were red from the sun, beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down their foreheads, and the front and back of the cavalrymen's chests were wet, as if they had been washed with water.

"General Banner, why didn't you see any trace of the Middle Route Army, not even the figure of the Qing Army?" One of the horsemen hurried forward, approached the leader with the helmet and flag, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.

General Qi frowned, they were scouts who were ramming the Ma army, and they were ordered to go to the direction of Dasheng Pass to explore the location of the Chinese army, and by the way find out the movements of the Qing army.

But they had already penetrated fifty or sixty miles into Yingtianfu, and there was no trace of any army along the way, which was really strange.

The general banner glanced ahead, took a water bag from the saddle, tilted his head and poured it, the water had already been drunk, the knight on the side saw this, and hurriedly threw his water bag over, the general flag took it, but only took a sip, then threw it back, wiped his dry mouth with his hand, and then said: "Go forward and continue to explore." ”

After finishing speaking, the general flag pulled the reins, clamped the horse's belly between his legs, and urged the horse to gallop, and the cavalry behind saw it and hurriedly urged the horse to follow.

The group continued to move forward, risking their adventures in the direction of Dasheng Pass.

The cavalry galloped for more than ten miles, and when the city wall of Dasheng Pass was faintly visible, they finally made a discovery.

On the vast plain in front of the pass, a large camp stretched, the watchtower at the camp gate was half eliminated and fell down, the wall and the horses of the camp were pulled down, the wooden stakes were scattered, and most of the white camp tents stretched inside were also burned, and the rest were emitting bursts of green smoke.

In the camp and in the surrounding wilderness, there were broken flags, arrows, swords and guns, the corpses of the Ming army, the corpses of the Qing army, and the corpses of the Eight Banners, covering the earth.

Seeing this, the cavalry grabbed the reins, slowed their horses, and walked among the corpses.

The general flag rode on the horse, the heart was heavy, they urged the horse to slow down among the corpses, stretched out their hands to pick up a pole to burn off half, the military flag that was obliquely inserted, and then unfolded the rolled flag, only to see the word "Ming" in the middle, only one "day" word had been burned, and a line of small words next to it was still "Wuwei Left Army Panshi Battalion A Thousand Ding Banner".

General Qi's brows were furrowed, and from the situation in front of him, it was not difficult to see the intensity of the battle.

This large camp was breached, and the corpses of people and horses could be seen everywhere within a radius of ten miles, and the middle route army was probably defeated, but what exactly the defeat looked like and where the remnants of the army retreated, further exploration is needed.

The hearts of the cavalry suddenly hung in the air.

The cavalry continued to move slowly among the corpses, and from time to time he pulled up a military flag, unfolded it to check, and saw the battalion number on the flag, and his heart couldn't help but sink a little.

From time to time, the cavalry dismounted and flipped over a corpse wearing mountain armor, tore off a military badge from the corpse's waist, and put it away.

Judging from the dispersal of the corpses, the Ming army suffered many more casualties than the Qing soldiers, and it can also be seen that the resistance of the Middle Route Army was very fierce.

Fortunately, they did not find His Majesty's Daxu, and the banners of Jin Shenghuan, Wang Deren and other generals did not appear, and they could only hope that His Majesty had escaped.

Everyone moved forward a few miles with a heavy heart, and a cavalryman suddenly exclaimed, raised his whip and said: "General flag, there are Qing soldiers!" ”

When the general flag heard the sound, he looked in the direction he was pointing, and sure enough, he saw some figures walking among the corpses in the distance, picking up spears, bird guns and other weapons from time to time, tying them together, and the corpses were also dragged on a cart and pulled away.

This is the Qing army cleaning the battlefield, and when the cavalry discovered the Qing army, the Qing army naturally also found the cavalry in the distance.

In the distance, a white-armored eight-banner cavalry wandered, and said a few words of Manchurian bird language crookedly, so he clamped the horse's belly, divided it into two parts, left and right, and outflanked the cavalry.

Seeing this, the general flag waved his hand busily, then pulled the reins and ordered: "Go, let's withdraw!" ”

At that moment, the cavalrymen hurriedly turned their horses' heads, made a sound of urging their horses, waved their whips in their hands, and hurriedly retreated to the west.

The white-armored cavalry pursued all the way, but the weather was too hot, and the white-armored Eight Banners cavalry was a little unbearable, and chased for more than ten miles, but still did not catch up, so they gave up the pursuit.

In the north of Dangtu County, another road of Wuzhong Army scouts chose to follow the Yangtze River to search, and they went all the way to find out the piers re-established by the Qing court along the river, and gradually entered the boundary of Yingtianfu.

At this time, the sentry rode up a dirt mountain one after another, and suddenly found that under the corner of Ma'anshan in the distance, a large camp stretched at the foot of the mountain, and the water around Ma'anshan could not be drained.

On the opposite side of Ma'anshan, Wujiang Town is only separated by a river, according to legend, when the Chu and Han Dynasty disputed, the overlord Xiang Yu was trapped, embattled, defeated and retreated to Wujiang, consciously shameless to see Jiangdong's fathers, wielding a sword to kill himself on the riverside, only to let people follow him to fight for many years Wu Yu to the other side.

There is a spirit in the black horse, the lover thinks of the Lord, rolls and kills himself, and the saddle falls to the ground and turns into a mountain, from which Ma'anshan gets its name.

The sentinels stood on the dirt slope and watched, and they were ordered to explore along the river to find out the situation of the Qing army's river defense, so that the sailors could go down the river, but they did not want to bump into the Qing army's camp under Ma'anshan.

The sentry riders saw the bottom of the mountain, the flags were waving, the trumpets were flying, the white tents were all over the foot of the mountain, and countless figures were walking around in the camp.

"General flag, look at the top of the mountain!" When everyone's eyes were attracted by the camp at the foot of the mountain, a sentry suddenly pointed to the top of the mountain and exclaimed.

Everyone looked for prestige, and saw that there was a flag looming in the mountain, and there seemed to be a big flag dancing in the wind on the top of the mountain, but the sentinels were too far away, but they couldn't see it really enough.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of cannons in the Qing camp, like spring thunder in the vast ocean, followed by the beating of war drums that shook the ground, like a thunderbolt thrown in front of the Ten Thousand Blades Mountain.

In the Qing camp, countless figures poured out of the camp, like the spears of the forest, the banners in the sky, like the rolling tide of the sea, and a mountain of soldiers came out of the camp and rushed towards several mountains.

Seeing this, many sentinels felt a pang in their hearts, and the general flag immediately turned around, "Sun Definition, you lead five people, and quickly go back to report to the king!" I stayed behind to continue monitoring. ”

When a small flag with a helmet heard the sound, he immediately clenched his fists, and then ordered five of his subordinates, pulled the reins, and galloped away.

"General Banner, the Qing Army Rangers have discovered us!" Not long after the little flag left, a cavalryman immediately exclaimed.

Everyone saw a group of Qing cavalry, I don't know when, they had already made a detour behind the dirt slope, and another Qing cavalry was rushing from the front.

Seeing this, Zongqi's expression was sharp, he pulled out his war knife, clamped his war horse, and shouted: "Kill it." ”
