【Chapter 700】There's a Big Fish......
(0700) Liaodong, Haizhouwei, Mulan Ji. [No pop-up novel network]
This is a stronghold near Haizhouwei, about thirty miles away from Haizhouwei. This is the outpost of the southern part of Haizhouwei, responsible for defending the southern flank of Haizhouwei. In the past, there was a thousand households of the Ming army stationed here. Later, the Thousand Households House was abolished and it became a small market town. Since the capture of Haizhouwei, Mulan has always had a considerable number of Jianyu garrisoned. However, the exact number of people is unknown.
Xu Xingxia set his eyes on Mulan Ji at first sight. If he wants to make a little sensation in Liaodong and make Nurhachi notice him, so as to stop the pace of advancing towards Quang Ninh City, he must show some outstanding achievements. Killed a hundred Jianyu before, it was just a small greeting gift. This Mulan collection is actually a small meeting gift. He needs to prepare several copies of such a meeting gift in order to attract Nurhachi's attention.
However, the white-clothed army could not rashly attack Mulanji. The white-clothed army, who had just set foot on the land of Liaodong, knew almost nothing about the situation here. Although Mulan Ji is only a small stronghold, there may not be many prisoners stationed in it. However, he has to be careful. Because, once it alarms Haizhou Wei's Amin, it will be worse.
For Amin in Haizhou Wei, as well as the eighteen Niu Lu under his command, Xu Xingxia is still relatively taboo. After all, he only has 300 people on hand now. Xu Xingxia didn't want his more than 300 people to fall into the encirclement of Jianyu. What he needed to do was to make Jianyu feel that he was very difficult to deal with, and he had to report it to Nurhachi.
In the wilderness about three miles away from Mulan Ji, Xu Xingxia half-bent his body, holding a telescope, carefully looked at the situation of Mulan Ji. From inside the binoculars, he could clearly see that outside the Mulan Collection, there were more than a dozen Jianyu archers strolling around.
Xu Xingxia estimated that there should only be at most one Niulu Tartar in the Mulan Collection. Of course, all of this needs to be verified by many aspects. He had already sent Zhang Nai out to find out the specific information of Mulan Ji. I hope Zhang Nai, they won't have an accident.
…… Zhang Nai quietly poked his head out from behind the dirt slope and stared at the road in the distance.
His task is to catch a prisoner's tongue and go back. If you want to know the situation of Jianyu, scratching your tongue is the best way. With the interrogation methods of the white-clothed army, there is no one whose mouth cannot be pried open. He took his subordinates and ambushed here, just waiting for the Jianyu cavalry to pass by. This is the only way between Mulan Ji and Haizhou Wei, and if there is a Jianyu passing by here, it will definitely appear under his nose.
"Da Da Da!"
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the distance.
Zhang Nai's spirits immediately perked up, and he hurriedly gestured to let his subordinates move.
He held up his binoculars and carefully observed the direction in which the sound of horses' hooves was coming from. Sure enough, a moment later, on the far side of the road, three Jianyu cavalry came. Thankfully, they did come from Mulan. As for where they are going, it doesn't matter anymore. Anyway, as long as they are gathered from Mulan, they are the target of their capture.
"Paralyzed!"
"There are actually three!"
Zhang Nai frowned and cursed in a low voice.
The goal finally appeared, but three of them came in one go, and it was not easy to do it!
Scratch your tongue and don't fire a gun. As soon as the gunshots rang out, the Jianyu of Mulan Ji was alarmed. If the Mulan Ji captives are alarmed, they will flee. In this way, the White Army will not be able to kill all the prisoners. Xu Xingxia's meaning, but to kill all the Jianju of Mulan Ji, there is no one left.
"Everyone, be hidden!"
"Implement Plan Three! Do your job! ”
Zhang Nai took a deep breath and calmly reminded his subordinates.
There is not much time left, and even if there are three targets, we must find a way to catch them all. Fortunately, before the official operation, he also estimated such a situation, and formulated the No. 3 contingency plan for this purpose. Now, even if you have to take a little risk, you have to act. If these three Jianyu cavalry are spared, I don't know when the next wave will be. If you wait too long, something unexpected may happen.
The three Jianyu cavalry obviously didn't find anything special. This is the place they often hang out, and everything around them is familiar to them. The Ming army in Liaodong had already been beaten away by them, and the Han people around them had also been killed by them, so there could be no accident at all. Therefore, their guards are very lax.
Their bows and arrows were in their backs, and their swords were stuck in their scabbards. One of the cavalrymen also hummed a ditty. It is estimated that he hummed so badly that the other two Jianyu cavalry kept laughing at him.
"Poof!"
Suddenly, a cavalryman fell into the trap.
The other two Jianyu cavalry were taken aback. Worst! There is an ambush! They subconsciously reached out and drew their knives. The bow and arrow are behind their backs, and it is a waste of time to take them out. Bending the bow and arrows is even more time-consuming. Only the drawing of the knife is the fastest. In such situations, even tenths of a second of speed is crucial.
It was at this time that Zhang Nai and others suddenly pounced on the side of the road. In groups of four, they pounced on the two cavalrymen from different directions. The hand-to-hand weapons they used were the bayonets of Han-style rifles. In front of Jianyu's scimitar, the length of the Han-style rifle still occupies a great advantage. When necessary, the Han-style rifle can also shoot directly. Of course, this is as a last resort.
The reaction of the Jianyu cavalry was actually quite fast. After all, they are veterans of a hundred battles, and when they encounter danger, what they should do and what they should not do can be done without going through the brain, and they can do it by reflex. Their first instinct was to draw their knives and save their bodies, and then quickly take a look at the situation around them.
I have to say that the reaction of the Jianyu cavalry was completely correct. If you are a novice, you simply don't have the same reaction speed as theirs. However, after all, they were caught off guard and unexpectedly fell into the trap carefully designed by the white-clothed army, and the instant panic was definitely there. If their opponent is an ordinary person, this momentary panic may not delay anything. However, when you meet the white army, it is completely bad.
What Zhang Nai needed was for the Jianyu cavalry to panic and lose their reaction in an instant. At such an instant, the bayonets in their hands had reached the body of the Jianyu cavalry. As a result, a few bayonets came down, and the Jianyu cavalry on horseback was suddenly pierced through the shoulder blades, and the scimitar in his hand fell to the ground involuntarily. This is the best way to scratch your tongue. The Jianyu cavalry, who couldn't even pick up their weapons, naturally couldn't have the strength to resist.
The Jianyu cavalry, who fell into the trap, only reacted at this time, hurriedly took off the bow and arrow behind his back, and tried to fire back with the arrow. But it was too late. Several bayonets stabbed him near the shoulder, and immediately the blood flowed profusely, and the bow and arrow in his hand fell to the ground. It's not about his life, it's about making him incapacitated. The purpose of the white-clothed army is to catch alive.
Soon, the three Jianyu were tied up by Zhang Nai, thrown on horseback, and brought directly back to Xu Xingxia's side. Subsequently, there were special interrogators who tortured them. Along the way, some chaser warriors have turned into masters of torture. Under their torture, Jianyu soon collapsed. Sure enough, soon, these Jianyu shook out all the information they knew.
"How's the situation with Mulan Ji?" Xu Xingxia asked with concern.
"Lord Huiqi, there are only one hundred and eighty Jianyu around Mulan Ji...... However, there seems to be a big fish in this......" Zhang Nai explained in detail.
According to the confessions of the three Jianlu captives, there is indeed only one Jianlu in Mulan Ji, and there are only 180 people who are still dissatisfied. The construction of this Niu Lu is also under the jurisdiction of the blue flag. In other words, it is under Amin's jurisdiction.
It is said that the little leader of this Niu Lu is still a relative of Amin or something, and he is quite trusted by Amin. Therefore, this Niu Lu is relatively elite. According to the three Jianlu captives, this Niu Lu had more than a dozen white pendulum tooth lamas. In a bull record, there are more than a dozen white swing teeth, which indeed belong to the elite ranks. It seems that Amin still attaches great importance to the place of Mulan Ji, and it is the elite troops that are stationed.
However, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that in Mulanji, there is actually a Jiannu chief who is more prominent than his identity. He is Nurhachi's eleventh son, Aisin Jueluo? Babu Sea. It has been several days since he arrived in Mulan Ji, and he has not left until now. Due to his presence, the atmosphere of Mulan Ji seemed a little tense.
No one knows why the Babu Sea appears in the Mulan set. Originally, according to his identity, it would have been impossible to appear so close to the front line. After all, Mulan Ji is just a small place, and it is very unsafe. What's more, there are less than 200 Jianjiao stationed there. Wouldn't the Babu Sea be dangerous if it was attacked by a large number of enemies?
In fact, the three captives themselves didn't understand. Using their usual thinking, they guessed that the Babu Sea should have come to "gild". To be precise, it is to go to the front line to pretend. With his identity, he only needs to go to the battlefield and take a leisurely walk, and when he returns, he can say that he has already been on the battlefield. From the perspective of the Han people, such a thing is the most common. How could the Babu Sea really come to war?
