Chapter Seventy-Four: Flat Gun! According to the horse!
Liu Xingzuo was plundered by the Jurchens in the 33rd year of Wanli and made a slave, and because of his intelligence and ability, he was very valued by Nurhachi. Before that, he had been assigned to Daishan's Zhenghongqi, and participated in the battles of Shengjing and Liaoyang successively.
In the battle of Shengjing Hunhe, he only participated in the attack on Shengjing City, and then he stayed in the city. He was the first to attack Liaoyang City, and was appointed by Nurhachi to govern the three guards of Gaizhou, Haizhou, and Fuzhou.
However, the cruelty of the Jurchens to the Han people made him, a Han man, very uncomfortable, and he felt that he was an accomplice of the Jurchens. The hands are stained with the blood of the Han Chinese, especially in recent times.
Han Chinese were largely reduced to slavery, and many Han people lived a life that was worse than death. He was also suffering in his heart, and not long after he took office, he heard that there was a force on Changsheng Island that was taking in a large number of Han people.
Out of sympathy for the Han people, Liu Xingzuo not only did not stop the Han people from escaping to Changsheng Island, but also gave the green light all the way. Among them, he also asked his younger brother Liu Xingren to come forward and helped many Han people escape to Changsheng Island.
Now that Changsheng Island has become the last piece of pure land in Liaodong, Liu Xingzuo knows the virtues of the Jurchens. If the Jurchens were to conquer Changsheng Island, then the tens of thousands of Han people on the island would become the spoils of the Jurchens and be killed at will.
At the gate of Fuzhou, Liu Xingren rode a war horse and was about to leave the city with two retinues, when he met Buha, the Jurchen commander. No matter how much Nurhachi trusted Liu Xingren, he would not let a single Han rule over almost the entire Liaodong Peninsula, and Buha was the supervisor he sent to Liu Xingzuo's army.
This person is very dissatisfied with Liu Xingzuo's letting Han slaves flee on weekdays, and Liu Xingzuo, who has been confronted many times, cannot get off the stage. Today, when he met Liu Xingren, who was going out of the city, he couldn't help but say in a weird way: "Isn't this the second son of the Liu family!" Why do you have to go out of the city to see those mud khans? ”
Liu Xingren instinctively wanted to attack when he heard Buha's words, but when he remembered what his eldest brother had confessed, he suppressed his anger and said: "It turned out to be Lord Buha, Liu is just bored in the city, and he wants to go out of the city to hunt!" ”
As he spoke, he snorted! Leaving the city, Buha didn't care at first and rode a few steps forward, but then he reacted. "That's not right!" There's definitely something going on here.
Usually, Liu Xingren's kid is cold when he sees him, and he won't talk to himself at all. Why did you change your temper today, and you took the initiative to explain the reason for leaving the city? Is there anything that can't be done here?
Thinking of this, he was no longer calm, and chased after Liu Xingren in the direction of Liu Xingren's departure.
When he chased a distance, he couldn't help but get excited, this road was not a way out of the city to hunt at all, but to Beixinkou.
What does this mean? Could it be that Liu Xingzuo really has a heart of disobedience? If he finds out this matter clearly, as long as he catches Liu Xingzuo's pigtails, he will definitely be able to replace him.
The thought that he would become the commander of the three guards made his heart burn. There was no longer any hesitation at the moment, and he chased in the direction of Liu Xingren.
Xu Lianshan has recently become the commander of the Changxing Army, and he also has 10 soldiers under him. This is something he never dared to think of in his life, every day the food is full, and there is a large piece of meat to eat at every meal, which is even better than what the landlord's family eats.
And as a captain, he was also assigned a firearm made by Changxinggou, and when he got it, he couldn't put it down, and the soldiers in the same army were envious.
Today he was assigned to Beixinkou to pick up the people to land on the island, and there have been fewer and fewer people landing on the island recently. Most of the people who were able to escape had already fled to the island, and the rest were those who did not have the courage to escape, and honestly served as slaves for the Jurchens, and some were old and weak women and children who could not escape.
Sometimes, even if you wait for a day, people may not flee to Beixinkou. So Xu Lianshan took 10 brothers from the same army to rest in the grove in Beixinkou, and they chatted and bragged and fart!
"Captain! I heard that you were rescued by an adult! Tell us about it! A soldier said.
The matter of Zhang Dou has been widely spread on Changsheng Island, and it is said that Zhang Dou is the stars in the sky. Immortals who came specifically to deal with the Jurchens, a group of barbaric animals, and to help poor people like them live a good life.
This proposal hit Xu Lianshan's itch, and he cleared his throat. Just as he was about to talk, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the official road in the distance.
Xu Lianshan immediately said: "There is an enemy, everyone pay attention to vigilance!" ”
Everyone put away the mood of chatting and looked nervously into the distance. This is an area controlled by the Jurchens, and it is not an exaggeration to be cautious. If you lose your life because of your own carelessness, it's not worth it.
At this time, several war horses galloped from a distance, the front two horses seemed to be fleeing, and the three horses behind were chasing with all their might. The horseman behind was obviously much better than the knight in front, and he was about to catch up.
One of the knights who had fled in front suddenly stopped his horse and said in a loud voice, "Second son! The small ones resist for a while, you can't fall into their hands! After saying that, he killed the three horsemen behind.
The young man who fled in front glanced at the loyal guard with tears in his eyes, and then he whipped his horse desperately, hoping to escape the pursuit of the cavalry behind.
His decisive charge only delayed the speed of his pursuers, and he was only cut off by the three horsemen at the moment of the engagement.
When the knights in front came to the side of the grove, the pursuers in the rear seemed to be tired of such pursuits. One of them took out his bow and arrow, and with one shot shot at the back of the young man in front of him.
The arrow was so fast and accurate that the knight in front of him was defenseless, and he was shot in the shoulder at once, and fell off his horse.
The knight in the rear saw that an arrow had made a move, and he slowed down his horse and slowly came to the young man.
"Second son Liu, you are running! Let's see who's coming to save you! Ha ha! Buhahaha laughed immediately, he could catch Liu Xingren and find evidence of Liu Xingzuo's collusion with the Ming army. At that time, he was the administrator of the three guards, and at that time, groups of slaves worked for him, and he was the emperor of the Liaodong Peninsula.
Liu Xingren, who was shot in the shoulder, fell off his horse and was thrown very lightly, but what made him anxious was the secret letter in his arms. If the person in front of them gets the secret letter, then their entire Liu family will be finished.
He stood up from the ground with the pain in his body and ran desperately towards the grove.
Buha looked at Liu Xingren who fled contemptuously, his eyes full of disdain. He slowly drew his saber and urged the war horse to rush towards Liu Xingren. The war horse quickly approached Liu Xingren, although Liu Xingren had exhausted all his strength, but how could he outrun the war horse when he was injured, and he was chased behind by Buha in a blink of an eye.
Liu Xingren, who peeked behind him during the run, saw that Buha had already reached the back, Liu Xingren closed his eyes and said: It's over! His own Liu family is finished!
Instead of feeling the pain when he closed his eyes, he heard a bang. Then a burst of red and white blood rain fell on his face, and Liu Xingren, who opened his eyes, saw Buha's headless corpse.
The nasty face had been beaten into a rotten watermelon by the fire, and the corpse fell under the horse in one fell swoop. The war horse was startled by this sound and galloped towards the woods, and this sudden change made the two Jurchen followers behind them stunned.
Then they reacted that they had lost their owners before the battle, and they were already guilty of death. They shuddered at the thought of the punishment they would have to endure when they went back, and at this moment they thought that Liu Xingren had yin Buha, and they wanted to kill Liu Xingren to avenge Buha.
Just as the two of them were also flying horses, a group of Ming troops ran out of the woods. These Ming soldiers all had a spear in their hands, and they rushed up at the two Jurchens.
When the two Jurchens saw a group of Ming troops rushing out of the woods, they slapped their horses and rushed up. They wanted to kill these Ming soldiers to avenge their master, Buha, and only in this way could their sins be alleviated.
Xu Lianshan saw that the soldiers of his squad were stunned and rushed forward like this, and shook his head for a while, the infantry against the cavalry is not like this. What a rookie! He muttered to himself.
Good felling! He's a rookie himself, but he never admits it. Because he often learns by his Uncle Ma's side, it's good to fight! Annoying Ma Bao to death can be regarded as learning!
Immediately shouted: "Flat gun! According to the horse! ”
