Qin Mufeng led the elite cavalry to run wildly all the way, and the Qing army behind was afraid of the muskets in the elite cavalry, and did not dare to push too much, chased out for more than twenty miles, and had to return in a daze.

Azig is going crazy now, I really don't know where such a group of people came out of nowhere, in just a quarter of an hour, the losses caused to themselves are too great, too big, the gunpowder in the army has lost ninety percent, basically there is nothing left, not only these, the artillery battalion in just a quarter of an hour, casualties of more than 400 people, some were hacked to death by sabers, some were killed by muskets, and some were even more unlucky by the explosion of gunpowder directly blown into ashes, and even a bone could not be found.

"Bastards, damn bastards! Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on? Who was on duty last night? ”

He Luohui on the side smiled bitterly: "Lord Wang, don't ask, it's useless to ask, this cavalry comes and goes like the wind, fast as thunder, run away with a shot, don't give us any time to react at all, there is no way to change who is on duty, unless there are three of us who are patrolling, we can instantly mobilize the army to respond to the battle, otherwise, where will it come from?" ”

"More than 200 pounds of gunpowder! He Luohui, without gunpowder and artillery, then how can we attack Jining City? Do you just use corpse pads? ”

Azig exclaimed angrily.

Wu Sangui sighed and said: "Lord Wang, for the sake of today, the only way to do this is to send people to the capital again, so that the military department can allocate a batch of gunpowder again, but once and again, no matter how fast the time is, there is no time for three or five days, and it is impossible to be in place, and the most important thing is that our artillery casualties are too heavy, without artillery, the power of artillery cannot be brought into play at all, dozens of shells are fired, no one knows where the shells can fly, where they can work......"

Now there is no way, there are only a dozen catties of gunpowder, which is not enough for a day, how can such a light gunpowder break through Jining's city defense?

Besides, Qin Mufeng ran all the way to the northwest, and after running out for thirty miles, he suddenly mobilized and went straight to the southwest - the direction of Caozhou, without further ado, he must take advantage of the opportunity of Mandahai to attack Lanyang to seize Caozhou before Azig discovers his intentions!

From the northwest of Jining to Caozhou, a distance of more than two hundred miles, even if it is a full-speed march, it will take a day and a night, after all, the war horse also needs to rest, it is impossible to run wild for twelve hours a day, in that case, no matter how good the war horse is, it will have to run to death.

By the time I came to Caozhou City, it was already late at night.

The cavalry paused, and a few scouts ran quickly.

"See Master Overseer!"

"How? Has anything changed in Caozhou? ”

These people were all scouts who stayed in Caozhou before, always staring at the changes in Caozhou's city defense.

The scout hurriedly replied: "Lord Qiyu, everything is as usual in Caozhou City now, Mandahai only left a thousand steps to defend the city, and the rest of the people were all transferred to Lanyang, and there is no Ming army around Caozhou, so the precautions of the Qing army in the city are not very strict......"

Qin Mufeng nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, then we can only give it a go now, Zhou An, take ten brothers, go out with me, give up the war horse, carry good weapons and muskets, bring enough bullets, let's climb up to the city with flying claws and hundreds of chains, and use the shortest time to open the city gate and welcome our elite cavalry into the city, Zhao Xin, these thousand brothers are all in your hands, as long as the gunshots sound in the city, you will lead the brothers to charge, no matter how much the price is paid, you must rush into Caozhou City!" ”

The generals around him gasped one by one, I'm a mother, this superintendent is going to play with his life again, more than a dozen people dare to sneak directly into Caozhou City, once they are discovered by the Qing army guarding the city, the brothers behind them can't catch up, it's a mortal situation!

"My lord, this is too dangerous, otherwise, I will go with Brother Zhou An, you will lead the main force, you are the commander of the three armies......"

Zhao Xin said urgently.

Qin Mufeng snorted coldly: "Fuck the commander of the three armies, this operation is not allowed to be defeated, we can't afford to lose at all, you?" Will you be able to withstand the onslaught of the city's cavalry? Joke! Give me honest obedience, and I'll act! ”

Qin Mufeng said that, ten people were directly selected from the army, each of whom carried a ghost-headed knife, a flintlock musket on his back, and at the same time, a bullet bag was wrapped around his chest.

"Let's go!"

More than a dozen people didn't even get up from the war horse, and rushed all the way to Caozhou City, but five or six miles away, for more than ten of them, it was nothing at all, they were all with a top ten soldiers, as for Qin Mufeng, not to mention, one hundred and ten people thought that they could help him, and the five-hook god flying silver spear in his hand, once it danced, it would be easy for the gods and ghosts!

More than a dozen people sneaked quickly, all the way to the city wall, look at the city, silent, Qin Mufeng shook his hand, the flying grab in his hand had flown out, just hit the battlements of the city wall, the city wall of Caozhou City is not too high, but it is not short, three zhang high, full ten meters, three stories as high, there is not enough good physical strength, even if it is just to climb the city, it is a difficult thing, not to mention, Qin Mufeng still has dozens of catties of bright silver guns on his body.

Qin Mufeng's body was as light as a swallow, and he soon came to the top of the city, looked left and right to see if there was no movement, turned over and entered the city, and the brothers under the city also climbed up towards the city head one by one.

The scout is right, now Mandahai has taken away a large number of troops, only a thousand cavalry guards are left in the city, and the Manchurian elite cavalry has already returned to the camp to sleep, even the infantry left by the Guanning Iron Cavalry are now mostly resting, only retaining two patrol teams to patrol back and forth, and now there are no enemy troops under the city, why do you have to stay in the city and stare at the city?

Two patrol teams, one in charge of the south and the other in the north, want to patrol the head of the city, there is no more than half an hour to do it, these dozen people climb the city wall, even if it is a city wall more than three zhang high, it is only a matter of a matter of one or two minutes, where is it so easy to be discovered?

Climbed up to the head of the city, the left is the city tower, below is the hidden soldier hole, there are not many people left on duty above the city head, but there are definitely soldiers in this hidden soldier cave, specially used to protect the city gate below, as for the city gate, there are still troops to guard it, not to mention there must be twenty or thirty people.

Qin Mufeng said in a low voice: "Brothers, you must be steady, accurate, fast and ruthless, never have the slightest softness, a little hesitation, we will give up all our efforts, prepare the musket, on!" ”

More than a dozen people rushed down the steps towards the city gate!
