Chapter 698: Ao Bai is coming

Zhang Sifang was beaten by the right town of Nanjing and fled, ran out for more than 30 miles in one breath, only then stopped and reorganized the troops, half a day, only gathered more than 2,000 people, this battle was really too humiliating, the casualties were not particularly large, after all, less than half an hour of fighting, but let the right town of Nanjing kill, and not much killed. Most of the troops were scattered in the rout, and some even became deserters and never returned.

Defeat is nothing, after all, victory and defeat is a common thing in soldiers, who also has a time to defeat the battle, not to mention that he met the elite cavalry of the Ming Dynasty, suddenly attacked, he was not someone's opponent, if he can win, he will not have to be the general of this green battalion, he can already be the chief soldier or even the superintendent; But twenty red-coated cannons have been lost, this is fatal, you must know that it is too difficult to cast a red-coated cannon now, when the Ming Dynasty Firearms Bureau was under the auspices of Tang Ruowang, it was only thirty pieces a year, and now under the control of the Qing court, the Firearms Bureau of Beijing City tried its best, and could not make thirty doors a year, and now he said that he lost twenty guns in one breath, and almost threw a year's output into it, and Prince Yu did not cut himself to blame!

Zhang Sifang wants to cry without tears and snatch it back? I'm afraid I can't do it if I give myself another 10,000 green battalion soldiers, that group of cavalry is too powerful!

Just when Zhang Sifang was worried, there was another burst of dust in the south, approaching in this direction!

"My lord, look, look, another cavalry is coming......"

One of the generals next to him shouted in a trembling voice, he was really scared by the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty, and now he has become a frightened bird.

Zhang Sifang was also scared to death, if it was really a cavalry of the Ming Court, he would have to explain it here......

In a panic, the cavalry had quickly approached, Zhang Sifang only breathed a long sigh of relief at this time, they were all white flags, this is the white flag of the horses, it is estimated that the cavalry of Lord Ao Bai has arrived!

Aobai marched all the way, a small distance of two hundred miles, it took less than two days, the front is Qingyuan Town, Aobai's plan is that there will be no rest tonight, directly catch up with Zhang Sifang's troops, and attack Zhending Mansion together, who knows that there are still more than ten miles away from Qingyuan Town, the scouts in front have already returned, and a large number of routs of the green battalion soldiers have been found in front!

Ao Bai was shocked, the rout of the green battalion? Where did it come from? Could it be the green battalion soldiers of Shunde Mansion? Unlikely, right? Zhang Sifang is carrying no less than 5,000 troops, and he is also carrying 20 artillery pieces, but now is not the time to think about these, hurry up and investigate to see what is going on in front of you!

"Zahasu, immediately take a team of cavalry, go to the front to see what the situation is, if it is Zhang Sifang, let him come to see me immediately!"

Niu Lu Zhangjing Zha Hasu on the side agreed, and with a wave of his hand, the cavalry immediately rushed out and went straight to Zhang Sifang's team.

"The soldiers in front, which part of you are from, our Ao Bai Commander wants you to go and see you immediately!"

Ao Bai is a fierce general among the Eight Banners, although he can't be compared with Duoduo, but he is also the first-class Ang Bang Zhangjing of the Qing Dynasty, Gushan Ezhen, don't say a Zhang Sizhi, even if he is a big man in the Han Dynasty in the court, he does not dare to be presumptuous in front of Ao Bai.

Zhang Sifang hurriedly followed Zahasu to the front of Aobai's army, bowed down and said, "Zhang Sifang, the general of the Xiaguan Green Battalion, see the commander!" ”

Ao Bai's heart jumped, and it was really Zhang Sifang!

"Zhang Sifang, what's the matter with you? Aren't you going to march into the Zhending Mansion? Why is it still delayed here, and there are routs everywhere? ”

Ao Bai shouted.

Zhang Sifang said astringently: "Lord Aobai, you don't know, in the afternoon, we encountered a surprise attack by the Ming army's elite cavalry ten miles north of Qingyuan Town, and we couldn't withstand the attack of the Ming army when we were suddenly attacked, this group of cavalry is too ferocious, we are not people's opponents at all......

Aobai's heart sank, he sank fiercely, a green battalion was just a soldier, and if he was defeated, he didn't take them seriously, but twenty red-clothed cannons can't be lost, that is the artifact of the Manchurian Eight Banners to conquer the city, without these artillery, how to attack fortified cities such as the Daimyo Mansion and Baoding Mansion?

"Bastard, you are 5,000 troops, even if you encounter a cavalry raid, you can't hold out for half a day, right? It's not dark yet! I ask you, what about the artillery that accompanied the army? ”

Ao Bai shouted.

Zhang Sifang's heart trembled, and he said in a low voice: "My lord, the artillery has been snatched away by the Ming army, and it has been snatched away......"

Ao Bai felt his head dizzy and was snatched away?

"Damn, Zhang Sifang, you, you just wait for Prince Yu's severe punishment! Twenty artillery, the entire Qing Dynasty, is only less than a hundred artillery, you, you lost two or three percent in one breath, you, you wait, you waste, waste!! ”

Ao Bai was furious, angry like thunder, scolding, Zhang Sifang dared to fight back at this time, he could only stand obediently in place, drooping his head, and didn't dare to move.

"Lord Zhang Jing, according to the slaves, the Ming army has so many artillery, they will definitely not be able to run far, if we go all out to search and chase, maybe we can catch up with them and snatch the artillery back......"

Zahasu whispered.

Ao Bai suddenly woke up and shouted: "Zahasu, give an order, send scouts, search for the traces of the Ming cavalry in the northwest, north and northeast, even if it is a rat hole, once you get the news, report it immediately!" The herald army immediately entered Qingyuan Town to garrison, damn Qin Mufeng, this time Lao Tzu must teach you how to behave! ”

Before he figured out the situation, Ao Bai directly calculated the account on Qin Mufeng's head, anyway, as long as something happened here, it was definitely done by the elite under his command Qin Mufeng, new hatred and old hatred, it should be better to calculate it!

Ao Bai led the main force of the cavalry, together with Zhang Sifang, rectified the infantry, and advanced all the way to Qingyuan Town, but most of the time, he arrived at Qingyuan Town, and the sky was completely dark, at this time, the cavalry sent out finally had news.

"Lord Qiqi Zhangjing, the minions have already discovered the traces of the Ming cavalry!"

A scout urged the horse and bowed.

Ao Bai raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Where are they?" ”

The scout hurriedly replied: "Lord Zhang Jing, the minions have found traces of the Ming cavalry in Dongtan Mountain, I am afraid that there will be two or three thousand people, all of them are stationed on the mountain, it seems that those artillery pieces are still there......"

"Good!"

Ao Bai gritted his teeth and shouted: "You will target the Ming army for this general in Dongtan Mountain, and enter Dongtan Mountain early tomorrow morning, Lao Tzu will teach them a good lesson!" ”
