Just as Wang Hong was imagining a bright future prospect, a cavalryman came to the city and shouted: "Dare to ask the general army of Tianjin Weiwang?" ”

Wang Hong came to the wall and asked, "Who are you, why did you come to Jinghai City to make a noise?" ”

"Is it Mr. Wang above? I am a member of the Qiong Navy, and the Tartars are going to escape from Jinghai County, and the general ordered me to ask General Soldier Wang to stop the Tartars, as long as I can keep Abatai, half of the battle merits will be given to General Soldier Wang. ”

The confidant general who followed him had his eyes lit up, and said in a low voice: "Zhentai, the Guangdong soldiers have increased their size, half of their military exploits!" Done? ”

Wang Hong snorted, thinking to himself what do you know, not to mention whether you have the life to win this battle feat, even if the loss of the army will drag the Tartar, but if you offend the future military department Shangshu, you will inevitably give small shoes to wear in the future, how can you go to Huai'an to serve as the chief soldier at ease.

He shouted to the city: "You go and tell General Xia that Wang is still the same sentence, without the order of the military department, he will not send troops." There are no rules, there is no circle, Wang is a person who abides by the rules, and he will never do anything that is nameless. ”

The guards on the city wall suddenly stirred, although they were also afraid that there would be deaths and injuries in the battle, but the brother troops were fighting to the death with the Tartars not far away, but they stayed in the city and did nothing, it was too cowardly, right?

The cavalry who reported the news was so angry that he didn't care about the dignity of his official position, and pointed to the city and scolded: "Wang Hong, I said that your grandmother, the Tartars are all under your nose, what kind of military orders are you talking about, who are you fooling?" is obviously greedy for life and afraid of death. Lao Tzu is a native of Shandong, after joining the Qiong Navy, he chased the Tartars from Shandong to Tianjin, you Tianjin Guards, the Tartars killed people and set fire to your door, but you hid in the city and didn't dare to come out, all of them were wrecked, and we didn't deserve to carry shoes to the Qiong Navy! ”

In the county town of Jinghai, the city wall was full of defenders, but no one refuted, because what the other party said was the truth, and every sentence pierced the heart, most of the Tianjin soldiers were so ashamed that their faces were flushed, and they wished that there was a crack in the ground to get in. Many people think in their hearts, Shandong people dare to fight Tartars, why don't they dare? But if the general soldier doesn't give an order, what can they do with these small soldiers?

Wang Hong was furious when he heard this, and these words were heart-wrenching, and it was easy to incite the emotions of his subordinates. took out the bow and arrow at the moment, and scolded: "What nonsense, shut up for me!" As he spoke, he shot an arrow.

Where did the cavalry know that the enemy was at present, and their own people would still play black hands, they were completely unprepared, and when they were caught off guard, they desperately dodged or were shot in the arm, but fortunately they did not hurt the chest, abdomen, and face. He knew that he would not be able to move the general soldier today, so he covered his wounds, clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and turned away hatefully.

After Wang Hong put down his bow and arrows, he turned around and saw a group of subordinates looking at him silently, and the other soldiers on the city wall were also staring at him, with complicated eyes, it seemed that these people did not approve of their actions too much, but they did not dare to speak out because of the power of their own general army. He wanted to reprimand, but he was afraid of causing a backlash, so he hesitated for a moment and gave up, snorted coldly, and turned around to inspect another section of the city wall.

The wounded cavalry rushed back and brought Wang Hong's words to Xia Nan as they were.

"What? Wang Hong not only did not send troops, but also shot and injured our people? Xia Nan was furious, "If it weren't for the Tartars now, I would have blasted open the gate of Jinghai County right now, and dug out Wang Hong's heart to see if it was red or black?" At this time, he still took the orders of the Ministry of War to talk about things, either he was greedy for life and afraid of death, or he was a traitor who was in cahoots with the Tartars! ”

Yang Youji said hatefully: "I think this guy is not only greedy for life and afraid of death, maybe there is something unknown behind him, deliberately hiding it from us......"

In fact, Yang Youji said casually that he was close to the truth of the facts, but no one could have imagined that the mastermind behind the scenes turned out to be the most unlikely person - Yang Sichang, who was about to take office as the secretary of the Ministry of War, and he also received Chongzhen's secret support.

Sima De sighed: "In these years, he is not the first to protect himself, timid and afraid of war, such a general, and he will never be the last." Leave him alone, and think about how to stop Abatai! ”

Xia Nan looked at the Houjin army that was forcibly passing through the flank, gritted his teeth and said: "A regiment and an independent regiment are all up, no matter whether they can be dragged in the end or not, at least try it!" ”

The strength of the two regiments turned into columns and met the Houjin army, which had already passed more than half of it. The second regiment was still entangled with the cannon fodder troops, unable to spare its hands.

Abatai looked at his opponent's change of formation and hesitated. These bird-fired soldiers don't have a tight formation, and the effect of the impact is much better, should you go back and kill for a while?

However, he looked at the armored soldiers who were hurriedly beating their horses and rushing forward, and they didn't even seem to have the time to glance to the left, and immediately dispelled this idea - the warriors of the Blue Banner had been beaten by this group of Ming troops and had no confidence, and their morale was low and they had no intention of fighting.

He shook his head and gave the order: "Speed through, don't get entangled with them." ”

"I'll rub!" Seeing that the troops of the two regiments gave up the formation and rushed forward regardless of the danger of being outflanked by the cavalry, but the Houjin army didn't even look at it, and just buried their heads in the road, Xia Nan couldn't help but burst into foul language. Is this still the Houjin army in my own cognition, "Damn, what's the difference between these Tartars and the Ming army that fled without a fight?" I don't even have the courage to turn back and fight! ”

Sima De smiled bitterly: "General, look at it from another angle, this is also a good thing, the Tartars are afraid of us and dare not fall in love with the war, this is a realm that the Ming officers and soldiers have never reached." ”

"What's the use of that, I just want to annihilate this force now." Xia Nan said hatefully.

But the two legs never caught up with the four legs, and the Qiong Navy desperately chased after him, but he could only watch the tens of thousands of Tartars run farther and farther, raising up dust in the sky, but he could only eat dust in the back. At this time, the battle on the side of the second regiment was also over, and the herald came to report: "General, those Tartars are unwilling to surrender, they are exhausted in battle, and they are all dead, and more than half of the Han army has been killed and wounded, and they have all been disarmed and surrendered!" ”

In the summer, Nan had nowhere to vent his nameless fire, and when he heard the words, he shouted: "What falls, kill them all!" ”

Sima De was taken aback and persuaded: "General, killing prisoners is ominous!" ”

"It's just a group of two Tartars, if you don't kill them, will you still be able to raise them? I don't have that much food for them. Xia Nan said, "They are willing to shave their hair and keep braids, but they have forgotten their ancestors, and such wolf-hearted things are not worthy of staying in the world." ”

The order was passed down, and the second regiment immediately moved. The screams came and went, and they reached Xia Nan's side, and he didn't even move his eyebrows. [.]
