Kang wandered back and forth in the big tent at noon, and he had been walking like this for most of the hour. As soon as he felt a little tired, he sat down on the chair suddenly, but immediately jumped up again as if he were sitting on a red-hot iron plate.

Then, Kang Zhengwu, who was full of anxiety, asked his personal soldier captain in a low voice: "Is Xiao Wu back?" ”

The captain of the pro-soldier shook his head bitterly, and then comforted: "Master! I have already sent someone to watch outside the camp, and as soon as the fifth brother returns, he will immediately tell the master. But now there is no movement in the Tartars, and the safety of the fifth brother should be fine. ”

"I'm not trying to listen to Xiao Wu's safety." Kang Zhengwu immediately became anxious. Then, he faced the captain of his own army, and squirmed his mouth a few times, but found that he had nothing to say, so Kang sighed at noon and sat down heavily in the chair.

Kang Zhengwu was originally a guerrilla of the Ming army, and he also had more than 3,000 horses in his hands. When the Qing army entered the customs in the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, Kang Zhengwu took his soldiers and horses to guard a state city. However, when the Qing army pressed the border, and before attacking this state city, sent King Lu's "Qing Jun's Side Edict", Kang surrendered to the Qing army at noon.

However, what made Kang Zhengwu regret it greatly was that the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not gain a foothold in the pass, and Kang Zhengwu's troops were also coerced by the Qing army outside the pass and incorporated into the Han army flag.

When he arrived outside the gate, Kang Zhengwu was also dead at first, anyway, he was safe when he came. Although he is a third-class citizen of the Great Qing Dynasty, Kang Zhengwu, as the general of the Han Army Banner, has a good life.

But after only half a year, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse. The Qing army began to assemble a large army to fight a decisive battle with the newly established Daping Dynasty.

For Wu Shigong, the general soldier of Runing who established the Great Ping Dynasty, Kang Zhengwu was quite unfamiliar. So before the decisive battle. Kang Zhengwu believed that Wu Shigong's ascension to the throne was due to luck. And his troops are at most stronger than the ordinary Ming army, and they are only strong. But it is certainly not as good as the heroes of the Great Qing Kingdom.

But as soon as the battle began, Kang saw that something was wrong. Where is this inferior to the Qing army? The combat effectiveness is completely equal to that of the Eight Banners in the Qing army. In particular, the firearms of the Daping army were quite ferocious, and at long range, the Qing army was completely suppressed by the Daping army. In particular, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Qing army did everything they could. But he couldn't break through the encirclement of the Daping Army, which made Kang Zhengwu look up to the Daping Army again.

And Kang Zhengwu knew in his heart that the Qing army was dispatched with all the strength of the country this time. And the Daping Dynasty, which occupied the Central Plains, could have a steady stream of troops to the front line in the future. The supply of materials is also sufficient, which makes Kang Zhengwu a little worried.

If this is all there is, Kang Noon may still be able to get by. But as the battle progressed, Kang found a very strange one. Or a very normal place. Every time there is a war. The Han army flags all rushed to the front line. In the banner of the Han army, Wu Sangui's Guanning Iron Cavalry and Kong Youde and others' Sanshun Wang troops are still good, and the worst thing is a miscellaneous Han army like Kang Zhengwu.

The battle lasted just over a month, and Kang's troops were reduced to 2,000 men. And it's no rest, no supplementation. Kang Zhengwu even witnessed with his own eyes that some of the miscellaneous Han troops with heavy casualties were dismissed from their posts, and the troops were forcibly broken up and incorporated into other units. This made Kang Noon, who was living in the army, unbearable.

Anyway, the Qing army had already surrendered once, and Kang Zhengwu's festival had already been lost. So what about throwing it again? So Kang didn't stop at noon and sent his nephew to contact the Daping army. I want to rebel again and surrender to the Great Ping Dynasty.

But today, after Kang Zhengwu's nephew Kang Wu went out, he did not return for a long time. This made Kang a little restless at noon. He was afraid that the Qing army would find out, and he was worried that the Daping army would not agree. A heart is seven up and eight down, and no matter how it is, it can't calm down.

"My lord! The Fifth Young Master is back. One of the soldiers rushed into the tent with a shout.

"Be quiet!" The captain of the pro-soldier stepped forward and kicked the pro-soldier who was dancing with his hands. Then they both smiled and looked at Kang Zhengwu, who had jumped up from his chair again.

Kang Zhengwu couldn't care about his gaffe, he rushed to the door of the big tent, opened the curtain, and watched Kang Wu trot in. Before Kang Wu could catch his breath, Kang asked eagerly, "How are the talks?" Hurry up! ”

The captain of the pro-soldier immediately thoughtfully poured a bowl of water and brought it over. Kang Wu drank all the water in the bowl in one gulp, and then said to Kang Zhengwu: "Third uncle! I got there and said what you said, but they didn't believe me. I was afraid of the loss of fraud, so I delayed it for so long. ”

"And then?" Kang leaned over at noon, grabbed Kang Wu's shirt and asked.

Later, when I tried to talk about it, they reluctantly agreed. The conditions given are good, no matter how many people you bring over, your position will remain the same, and you will be given a return fee. But...... But ......"

"But what is it? You little rabbit is going to talk about it, huh? Kang Zhengwu saw Kang Wu's big pant at noon, and he couldn't wait for a slap in the face.

"But they want you to show your name. In the battle tomorrow, when you see the black flag of their Chinese army waving, you will have to kill the army around you, and they will accept your surrender. Kang Wu said all the words in one breath.

As soon as he heard this, Kang Zhengwu glanced at the captain of his own army, and then leaned closer to Kang Wu, and whispered: "You have to say everything you say again, even the expressions must be described." To put it in more detail, the more detailed the better! ”

……

At the same time, in the tent of the commander of the Daping army, Xue Yongli also summoned all the generals in the military meeting.

"Coincidentally, today is also a coincidence that two families have sent people over to talk, both of them want to surrender to us. It seems that the good days of the Tartars are coming to an end. Xue Yongli said.

"Coax ——!" The tent immediately became lively, and all the generals were talking about this sudden incident.

"Master Li! So what should we do? He Fei asked.

"If you have such a good opportunity, you have to attack it. The children are being crushed too hard by the tartars these days, and they should also be released to have a good time. Anyway, with the possibility of the Tartar anti-water, we have a great chance of winning. Xue Yongli held the big case with both hands and said slowly.

"What if it's a Tartar?" Tao Xin on the side immediately asked.

"I'm not afraid of deception. I said to both messengers: I want them to give their names. As soon as they see our banner, they will kill the Tartars around them. We can widen our eyes and see that we are really bloody, and we can really attack! Not afraid of their drills. Xue Yongli explained.

"That's just as well!" Tao Xin nodded in agreement.

But Shumo is very careful, and he put forward his opinion: "Master Li! When we attack, if the situation of the battle changes, it is impossible to immediately retreat to defense. So this battle is a bit dangerous. In case of failure, the Tartar army will break through our blockade. If we want to block them again in the future, it will be impossible. ”

Xue Yongli nodded, and explained, "If you want to win the battle, you have to take some risks. Someone is against the water, and the risk is always smaller. And tomorrow's deployment, such as Song, your town and Shumo, your troops are left behind, to prevent the battle situation from being unfavorable, you can go up. And in each of the other towns, except for the indispensable cavalry, the other cavalry was gathered and led by the old horse. ”

Then, Xue Yongli instructed Ma Shouying again: "Old horse! When the black flag of the Chinese army is waving, you will see where the Tartars are messy? Resolutely rush in from the chaotic place and tear the formation of the Tartars apart! ”

"You guys heard it clearly, too. Wherever the old horse came from, the town closest to him would rush in the same way, trying to cut the Tartar formation in half once and for all. ”

"No!"

But Ma Shouying coughed a few times, and then had another question: "Ahem!" Li Ye! You say that there are two that will turn against the water. What if the Tartars are in two places, and I am here to divide the troops? Or do you want to concentrate on one place? ”

"Concentrate on attacking!" Xue Yongli immediately replied, "Where the chaos is terrible, you will fight it." You can see more clearly on the battlefield than I do, and it's up to you to decide! ”

"Ahem! Good! Ahem! Ma Shouying said as he coughed violently.

"What's wrong? Old horses? Xue Yongli asked with concern, "Is your body uncomfortable?" If you really can't hold it, then let's change someone! ”

"Don't! Ahem! Ma Shouying immediately raised his hand to stop him, "These small illnesses and disasters will pass as soon as they get through." I know my body, as long as the battle starts, my whole body is full of spirit. Ahem! None of you should rob me, whoever robs me is in a hurry! Ahem! ”

"Haha——!" Everyone was immediately amused by Ma Shouying's words.

"That's it! Go down and get ready! Xue Yongli said in the end, "I'll tell you good news, the emperor has come with 10,000 reinforcements." Count the days, that is, these days will come. You have to show your face in front of the emperor! ”

"No!"

When the generals left, Xue Yongli sat quietly in the tent without saying a word. In fact, he is also very nervous now. So far, there has been no confirmation of whether the two families have really come to surrender. And the Daping army boldly fought a full-scale decisive battle, which was indeed too risky.

But Xue Yongli was also very helpless. Counting the days, these days are the time when the Pegasus town of Zug arrives in the two cities of Ningyuan and Zhenyuan. Xue Yongli wanted to hold back the main force of the Qing army, and he could not let them return to Liaodong to support the Qing army besieging the city.

Moreover, Wu Shigong also sent a secret report to Xue Yongli that there was a Qing army of tens of thousands in Huailai coming towards Shanhaiguan. In order to avoid being attacked from the front and back, Xue Yongli had to attack this time! (To be continued......)
