Chapter 109: Eager Hauge

From a distance, enemy sentries could be seen looming on the opposite bank. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Probably to test the thickness of the ice, a cavalryman turned over and dismounted, tied a rope around his waist, and then carefully stepped on the ice, moving forward step by step.

Until he saw a lot of civilians on the south side of the Yalu River, more than 10 people formed a circle, with a rope wrapped around a wooden stake, constantly smashing the ice.

Seeing this scene, the sentries were anxious, took out a few sleeves to wrap the horse's hooves, and then turned over on the horse. The archer-wielding monster screamed and rushed this way.

The Yalu River is more than 700 paces long, and the North Korean civilians who were captured to work did not know what was going on, until a few people were hit by arrows in succession, and then they screamed and turned to flee for their lives.

The reconnaissance platoon immediately went out and fought back, and in a round of arrows, the reconnaissance platoon, which had the upper hand in weapons, armor, and numbers, easily drove several sentinels back to the north bank.

When the sentries saw that they could not disperse the ice-digging Koreans, they had no choice but to turn around and shoot their horses, and they had to tell the team behind them about this as soon as possible.

Hauge with more than 3,000 cavalry is resting in the back 5 miles, while they have not yet entered the state of engagement, feed the war horses, these ancestors have to take care of them, otherwise it will be too late to regret them when they lose fat.

They came in the stars to pull the divided team back before Amin took full control of the situation.

The Jurchen population was originally small, and now there are all the blue flags, most of the white flags, half of the red flags, half of the white flags, and the Han army to which the blue flag belongs, which is almost one-third of the population of the Jin country.

If so many people were taken away by Amin, Jin Guo would be greatly injured, and Huang Taiji would never allow this kind of thing to happen.

"What? Are they chiseling ice? Did you read that right? A young voice asked angrily, it was Hauge.

"That's right, master, the slaves can see it clearly, they can't be wrong, they have caught a lot of North Koreans, and they are digging ice, but the ice is too thick, and they can't make a hole for a long time."

"Order, get on the horse, we must rush over before they dig the river, or 惻惻惻惻惻惻" He did not say the latter words, because he did not need to say it, and the officers below also knew the consequences.

If Amin's pre-Amin situation is not stopped, one-third of the Jurchens in North Korea will be held hostage by Amin, and the Kingdom of Jin will be plunged into a civil war.

A civil war that will be debilitated whether you win or lose.

If you want to stop Amin, you must ensure that the army behind can pass the Yalu River quickly and safely, and once there is a problem with the thick ice, a chain reaction may occur, and the entire Yalu River will thaw.

At that time, judging from the fact that Jin Guo has no ability to fight water at this time, he can only sit and wait for the next winter.

You must know that although the Yalu River is long, there are only a few places suitable for crossing the river, and in the downstream area, only the vicinity of Yiju is relatively easy to cross the river.

The rest of the place is either a lofty mountain and a dangerous peak, or an inaccessible deep mountain and old forest, and the team has no problem in the past, but it is simply impossible to let the army go with baggage.

After Hauge gave the order, Goshha blew a snail, and in the midst of the shouting and neighing, Hauge ran to the front with his own guard, and he wanted to see the situation at the scene.

On Chen Xin's side, the three Jurchen soldiers and horses of Niu Lu also came to the meeting place.

"My lord, we are here, please tell me how to behave." The three Niu Lu asked after the salute.

Chen Xin turned his head to look at the long snake that had been stretched to 6 miles, thought about it, nodded two of them, and said, "You two Niu Lu strengthen to the right flank, remember to stretch the formation longer, you don't need to care about the thickness of the front, you must appear to be overcrowded, understand?" ā€

The two Jurchens looked a little overwhelmed, but the harsh military law of the Jin Kingdom let them know that as long as they obeyed orders, they got up and replied, "My subordinates understand." ā€

Chen Xin nodded with satisfaction, turned to the remaining Niu Lu Ezhen, and said, "The other Niu Lu is responsible for driving those North Koreans to work, and they must have a sense of urgency, as if they have reached the critical moment of life and death, and they will not be able to survive without digging through the ice of the Yalu River, but no of our soldiers are allowed to set foot on the river, remember?" ā€

"Yes, my subordinates remember."

"Okay, then do it right away."

The three of them saluted, then turned to carry out the order.

Chen Xin looked at the panicked North Koreans who were forced to continue working on the river, and sighed, "War must have sacrifices, I don't want others to sacrifice, even if he is a Jurchen, he is also my Chinese Jurchen, although they are enemies now, they will all be members of the Chinese nation in the future, and they are much closer than you." No matter how you look at it, you can only make sacrifices. ā€

In the dull waiting, time passed minute by minute.

Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and the sound became louder and louder, and many soldiers who had not experienced a large-scale cavalry charge were in a little commotion, but they were immediately reprimanded by officers at all levels.

The reaction from the newly formed company of 30 recruits was the most violent, as they still did not know who their enemies were, that Amin had decided to stand on his own feet, and that their new boss was also a supporter of Amin.

Until now, he didn't know that he was already a recruit company of the rebels, and when he heard the huge sound of horses' hooves coming from the other side, he felt that something was wrong.

Some of the older and older soldiers have already begun to analyze.

From the other side, in addition to the Jin army, there is only the army of the Ming Dynasty.

But listening to the sound of horses' hooves, it is by no means a sound that the Ming army can make, and it has become a habit for the civilian and military generals of the border army of the Ming Dynasty to deduct military salaries, where would they pay to get such a large cavalry.

Not to mention that Dongjiang Town is an enclave, He Daming can only contact through the sea, and it is even more impossible to get so many war horses.

And the Guan Ning army only dared to retreat in the city, and it was impossible to run all the way to North Korea.

So, it's the Jin army coming?

However, if the guess is correct, then why should you put on a combat posture?

The chattering voices became louder and louder, and the veteran companies lined up behind them just scolded them for silence, but they didn't care whether the other party obeyed or not.

When a piece of cavalry on the opposite bank appeared in view, someone finally knew that something was wrong and wanted to escape.

Those who ran backwards were all captured and tied up by the veterans.

Those who ran forward were ignored at all, and some of the two bulls on the right flank couldn't help but want to shoot, but were immediately stopped by the officers.

They could see that Chen Xin was weeding out unqualified soldiers, eliminating those soldiers who were unwilling to go along, and the rest could be regarded as joining his team.
