"Master Overseer, otherwise, this time, I will lead the elite cavalry to Hejian Mansion, it's too dangerous......"

Soon, nearly four thousand elite horsemen were all assembled, and Zhou An whispered for help.

"You? You know the danger, then you should know that this battle is not something you can control, you are still young, stay by Lao Tzu's side honestly, and follow Lao Tzu to learn well! ”

Qin Mufeng said disdainfully.

"Obey!"

Zhou An knew that as long as Qin Mufeng made up his mind, even if the emperor came in person, he might not be able to subdue him, so he could only protect the adults as much as possible.

"Then, my lord, how are we going to fight this battle?"

Zhou An asked.

"Hmph, originally Dongchang Mansion fell, the Qing army grain and grass of the Daimyo Mansion were transported along the Grand Canal to the Daimyo's Mansion, and now the Dongchang Mansion has fallen into our grasp, the Cao Yun is not passable, the Qing army can only take the dry road, from the Hejian Mansion and the Zhending Mansion to transfer grain and grass, escorted to the Daimyo Mansion, 100,000 troops, plus war horses, the daily consumption is terrifying, I am afraid that we will need two or three thousand stone of grain and grass, we just need to cut off their grain and grass, it will not take long, there is no supply of grain and grass behind, the Qing army will not fight and be chaotic!"

Qin Mufeng said coldly, "First of all, let's start with Hejian Mansion and send the order down, at dusk, the army left Dongchang Mansion, sent scouts, and pulled out all those eyeliners and nails along the way!" Hundreds of miles to the north, cross from the Weihe Bridge, enter the territory of Zhili, Qinghe is their only way! We started in Qinghe County and cut off all their grain and grass! ”

Qin Mufeng has always been vigorous and resolute, leading more than 3,000 fine horsemen to rush out of Dongchang Mansion and go straight to Qinghe under the cover of night, from Dongchang Mansion to Qinghe County, it is only a hundred miles away, one night, the fine horse can easily run to Qinghe County, and when he arrived at Qinghe, it was less than five watches, and now it was early spring, and the sky was bright late.

"My lord, this, this Qinghe County is an endless plain, there is not even a hill, we don't even have a place to hide, more than 3,000 cavalry, once the hidden treasure is leaked, how can we ambush the Manchurian Tartar grain transportation team?"

Zhou An was a little worried, who knows when the Qing army escorting grain and grass will come, if you wait for ten days, then everything will be over......

"What's the hurry? 100,000 troops, consumed so much, the rear basically needs seven days to transport grain and grass to ensure the needs of the army, that is to say, we will board for seven days at most, and our scouts in the Daimyo Mansion sent information that just the day before yesterday, a batch of grain and grass had just been transported to the Daimyo Mansion, that is to say, at most four days, the grain and grass of the Qing army will arrive here! ”

Qin Mufeng sneered: "Zhou An, I'll give you one thing, take advantage of the night, immediately launch a surprise attack on the county seat of Qinghe County, give you an hour, control the entire Qinghe County, and at dawn, send cavalry to control the city gate, no one is allowed to enter or leave, we only need to hold on for four days, and we can definitely wait for the Qing army!" ”

It's just a small county, how can it be put in the eyes of Nanjing Right Town? This county town is not a major town, the local army is at most one Xun, two or three hundred people, plus the Yamen's officials, are no more than three hundred, now it is the eve of dawn, it is the weakest time for the county's defense, only one assault, can take the city gate, an hour? Half an hour is enough!

"Don't worry, my lord, in such a small county town, everyone combined, is only forty or fifty thousand people, and the city wall is not as high as our war horse, give me half an hour to clean it up properly!" Zhao Xin! ”

Zhao Xin, a guerrilla general on the side, hurriedly walked over, "Master Inspector, Master General!" ”

Zhou An said in a deep voice: "Lead the four hundred brothers under your command to bring me the Qinghe County in front of me, give you a stick of incense time, and take the gate of Nancheng City!" ”

"Du Cheng, Zhou Hai, Lu Tao, the three of you each lead the elite cavalry under your command, give you two incense sticks, each take the three city gates in the east, west and north, and act immediately! Violate the military order, behead! ”

Zhou An shouted, and sent four cavalry battalions in one breath to pounce towards Qinghe County.

At this time, Qinghe County is in a quiet silence, above the city, there is not even a person patrolling, after all, this is the rear, it is a hundred miles away from Dongchang Mansion, and the Ming army is now confronting the Qing army of the Daimyo Mansion, where can they run to Qinghe County? Who will look at Shangqinghe, a small county town that does not show mountains and waters?

Since it was absolutely safe, it was natural that these soldiers were too lazy to patrol the sentry, and only cared about lying in the city wall and sleeping in front of a bonfire.

Zhao Xin took the elite horse all the way to a distance less than a mile away from the city gate, and suddenly, Zhao Xin shouted: "Order, assault!" Take the gates! ”

The three hundred elite cavalry suddenly let go of the speed, less than a mile away, for the elite cavalry, that is, the time of the blink of an eye, in the blink of an eye, they have come to the city gate, the Qing army in the city woke up from their sleep in an instant, cavalry, where did the cavalry come from?

One by one, the soldiers got up from the ground and looked out of the city, only to see that a cavalry outside the city had arrived in front of them, and they were only more than ten zhang away!

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack—"

A soldier opened his mouth and shouted, before the words fell, the feather arrow was already rushing to the face, hitting the throat, the soldier turned over and planted the city, and the rest of the soldiers were also shot down by the feather arrow!

"Drink!"

Zhao Xin, who rushed to the front, took more than ten elites to the city at the same time, and poked the big gun in his hand to the ground, with the power of the big gun, his body rose into the air, and jumped straight onto the city wall.

More than a dozen people entered the city, and the Qing army, who heard the movement, rushed towards the city gate, but it was too late, more than a dozen elites had already come to the city gate, pushed the city gate open, and three hundred elite horsemen drove straight in and rushed in!

All the soldiers in the entire southern city combined, there are only forty or fifty people, seeing the dense cavalry surging in, they have already been paralyzed on the ground in fright, these are the troops of the local guards, the combat power is almost zero, where dare to resist the charge of the cavalry, surrender one by one!

At the time of the two incense sticks, the four city gates fell into the hands of the cavalry almost at the same time, and in an hour, the entire county was under the control of the fine cavalry, and the county commanders, county lieutenants, and capital divisions in the county were all pulled out of the bed by the Ming army!

"These wastes are left in the world, and there is no use in the slightest, kill!"

Qin Mufeng looked at a few officials, and shouted in a cold voice, "Order, immediately send scouts to the north to spy on the whereabouts of the Qing army, send a large army, strictly guard the four cities, and strictly prohibit anyone from entering or leaving!" Lao Tzu will give them a waiting rabbit in Qinghe County! ”
