364 Assassination of Nurhachi

Xiong Wei inquired all the way, but as a result, he was disappointed by the news he heard.

Li Rubai, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Route Army, led more than 20,000 men, and the latest division was to leave the Yahu Pass from Qinghe Fort on the first day of the first month of March, and attack Hetuara from the south.

Li Rubai was greedy for life and afraid of death in his later years, and he had no will to fight, so the Southern Route Army was slow to march to help.

He was shocked when he heard that the Juniper Army on the West Road and the Marin Army on the North Road had been defeated one after another.

On 4 March, Deputy Staff General He Shixian suggested to Li Rubai that he should quickly march to Liu Ling's rendezvous to save Liu Ling's army on the East Road. Li Rubai did not adopt it, and as a result, Liu Ling's army on the East Road was completely annihilated.

On the sixth day of the first month of March, Yang Hao urgently ordered Li Rubaijun on the South Road to return to the division. After Li Rubai received the order, he hurriedly returned to the army and plundered on a large scale.

Unexpectedly, on the way to retreat, he was attacked by the Houjin army. The Ming army was in chaos, running and practicing each other, and more than 1,000 people died. Li Rubai fled back to Qinghe and was impeached by the imperial court.

Xiong Wei heard the news of Li Rubai, but he didn't help Li Rubai, there was always a hurdle in his heart.

Liu Ling has been waiting for reinforcements to arrive. The west road and the north road were all killed in battle, if Li Rubai could have saved Liu Ling earlier, maybe Liu Ling would not have died.

Now, when he withdrew his troops, he still looted on a large scale, what is the difference between this and robbers. He didn't want to save such a person, he deserved to die, and if he didn't die, God would let him go because of his father's merits, just so that Nurhachi's army could teach him a lesson.

Then again, though. No matter how bad Li Rubai is, he is also his own person, he saw that his people were attacked by Nurhachi and did not help, and he couldn't get over it in his heart. He struggled and struggled, and the matter was over.

In the battle of Sarhu, the Houjin won a great victory and the Ming army was defeated.

Xiong Wei didn't know where to go for a while, he rode a horse alone and wandered around Liaodong. He didn't want to go back to the barracks, and he didn't want to go to Yehebu as soon as possible to find Xiaoyaozi or Yehenara to pull back.

Looking back on this war, it is not how powerful Nurhachi is, but that the generals have different intentions and settle their private affairs in the name of the country.

This is how he was killed by Yang Hao, and Liu Ling, like his own fate, was also framed by Yang Hao. Now Li Rubai is adding fuel to the fire again, and Liu Ling died unjustly.

Xiong Wei thought about it, and couldn't help but have a helpless smile on his face. He had to suspect that Yang Ho didn't want to win this war in the first place. At least the outcome of this war does not matter to him.

The Ming Dynasty poured all its strength into the whole country and dispatched troops for nearly a year, but it took less than five days before and after to be completely defeated by Nurhachi in the Battle of Sarhu.

More than 45,800 were killed or wounded, 310 civil and military officials were killed, more than 28,000 horses, mules, camels and other beasts were lost, and more than 20,000 firearms, guns and cannons were lost. Among the Fourth Route Army, only the Southern Route Army was able to retreat in its entirety.

The defeat was like a mountain, and Xiong Wei had a deep understanding of this sentence at this time.

As Xiong Wei walked, snowflakes drifted in the sky, and a snowflake fell on Xiong Wei's hand, and it melted after a while.

The snow melted, but the knot in Xiong Wei's heart could not be opened.

Nurhachi would never just want to recover Liaodong, his ultimate goal should be to advance to the Central Plains.

Xiong Wei knew that Nurhachi was now resting in Hetuara for the next attack. Xiong Wei wondered: Where will Nurhachi's next target be?

"No, I must stop Nurhachi's plan to attack the Central Plains. Xiong Wei thought about it, took a deep breath, and muttered to himself: Should I find someone to discuss and kill Nurhachi together? Or should I go alone and break into Nurhachi's camp and take his head.

The wind was blowing, he blinked subconsciously, and just when he saw the white clouds in the sky, he suddenly remembered Xia Yun.

"Yun'er......" Xiong Qi couldn't help but say.

"Yes, I'm going to assassinate Nurhachi. He clenched his fists as he thought about it.

The idea of assassinating Nurhachi rose in Xiong Wei's heart, and he thought that in this way, he could avenge Yun'er, and secondly, he could also be ashamed and avenge his own revenge. The most important thing is that if Nurhachi dies, Houjin will definitely be disrupted. He could take the opportunity to contact the Ming army to counterattack and destroy Houjin in one fell swoop.

Xiong Wei thought about getting stronger and stronger in his determination and came to Hetuala.

Xiong Wei came to Hetuara and inquired about Nurhachi's military camp.

At night, snowflakes fly.

Braving the heavy snow, Xiong Wei infiltrated Nurhachi's military camp. Xiong Wei quietly walked forward, watching the layout of Nurhachi's military camp.

The Nurhachi barracks were well arranged, with two soldiers standing in front of all the tents, changing guards every half hour, and Xiong Wei saw a group of soldiers patrolling the barracks.

Xiong looked at their clothes carefully, and saw that he was now wearing exactly the same clothes as theirs. Its clothes are wide, with narrow sleeves and horseshoe sleeves.

This garment was easy to move around, as the Jurchens lived in the cold northeast and were a people whose main way of life was hunting and semi-nomadic.

In order not to make people suspicious, to get closer to Nurhachi, Xiong Wei also disguised himself as a Jurchen.

Xiong Wei saw a large tent in the distance, with torches lit inside and out. According to the information he had already inquired about, this should be the tent where Nurhachi lived.

Xiong Wei cautiously approached the tent, he wanted to go around from behind, go straight in and stab Nurhachi in the throat with a sword.

However, when he got a little closer to the tent, he heard a lot of people inside arguing about something.

Xiong Wei quietly approached the barracks and heard the word that everyone said the most: Kaiyuan.

He secretly sighed in his heart: This Jurchen man speaks boldly, and he doesn't need to get too close to hear what they shout at the top of their voices.

It was good to have a loud voice, but they spoke Manchu, and Xiong Wei seemed to be a little incomprehensible. This inevitably made Xiong Wei a little annoyed.

Xiong Wei managed to sneak closer to the tent, so that he could see the heads of the people inside the tent. He prostrate himself on the ground and listened carefully, but fortunately, he had been with Yehnara for so long, and he could understand some Manchu to some extent.

Xiong listened carefully to the conversation inside. Guess: Nurhachi must also be inside, but there are many people in the tent now, and it is impossible to assassinate Nurhachi now. Let's hear what I'm saying.

Xiong Wei heard that most of the conversations between these people were discussing how to enter the Central Plains in the next step. This made Xiong Wei even more afraid to move. This is a very important military situation, and you need to listen carefully.

In the tent, Nurhachi presided over a military meeting to discuss the strategy of attacking the open plain, which was attended by his four sons and a number of high-ranking generals.

The four sons were the Great Bel Dai Shan, the Second Bel Amin, the Third Bel Mang Gurtai and the Fourth Bel Emperor Taiji.

According to the spies' report, Zheng Zifan, the defender of Kaiyuan City, was insidious and cunning, corrupt and bribed, bullied and suppressed, and did everything. His troops were also loose, demoralized, and ineffective.

Kaiyuan is the closest city to Mongolia and Jianzhou, and is the center of economic exchanges between Liaodong and Mongolia and Jurchen, with a large population and abundant materials.

With such a piece of fat to the mouth, how can everyone let it go easily. As a result, everyone advocated a quick solution.

Nurhachi also agreed, saying: "It's late tonight, everyone go back and think about how to attack Kaiyuan, and then tomorrow each comes up with their own plan." ”

When Nurhachi had finished speaking, he let the people out of the tent.

"Hmph!" Xiong Wei sneered, and said secretly in his heart: When you dream back at midnight, I will end your life and see how you attack Kaiyuan.

When Xiong Wei heard this, he thought: Kill Nurhachi when the lights go out in the tent.

Xiong Wei has been lurking for a long time, and wants to move gently. I don't want to tripped over a piece of wood when he got up. The wood fell and struck on another log, and the row of logs fell with a clatter, and the last log fell right on the stand of a brazier, and the support was crushed. Of course, the brazier also fell and the fire burned.

"Who?" noticed the soldiers guarding outside the tent.

When Xiong Wei looked at it, he had already been discovered. simply didn't do anything, and rushed directly into the camp to kill Nurhachi, if you want to die, you will die, and if you die, it is not in vain, at least you have killed a strong opponent for the country.

Before the soldier could say the next sentence, Xiong Wei rushed with sword qi and hit the soldier directly in the chest. He leaped forward, strode away, and killed the guard at Nurhachi's gate with two "smacks".

Xiong Wei lifted the curtain of the tent and raised his sword to assassinate Nurhachi.

Nurhachi and his sons were so powerful that they drew their weapons.

When Xiong Wei looked at it, he didn't know who was holding the sword and stabbing at him.

Xiong Wei jumped up and kicked the man to the ground like a gust of wind.

As soon as Xiong Wei landed, another person was killed from his side. He stepped on his front foot, kicked on his back foot, and with a swing of his sword, it slashed over the man's stomach, followed by a backhand kick.

"Kill him!" everyone pounced on Xiong Wei.

Xiong Wei hurriedly possessed him, and backhanded his sword on his back, blocking their weapons. He kicked the ground hard, jumped to his feet, and with a powerful momentum, he swept them all away.

The bear kicked hard and pounced to assassinate Nurhachi.

At this time, Huang Taiji, who was lying on the ground, saw Xiong Wei wanting to kill his father Khan. He jumped to his feet and hugged Xiong Wei.

Xiong Wei looked back and saw that the road was really narrow. He tried desperately to break free from Huang Taiji, but Huang Taiji hugged him very tightly. Xiong Wei secretly admired that this person is so powerful!

"Great Khan, Great Khan. Xiong Wei looked at it again, and countless Jurchen soldiers were pouring into the tent.

Xiong Wei frowned, if he didn't kill Nurhachi at this time, he would have no chance.

He also used all his strength and kicked Huang Taiji in the stomach fiercely. Huang Taiji subconsciously stepped back.

When everyone saw it, they pounced on Xiong Wei again.

Xiong Wei didn't dare to fight, and waved the leisurely sword, and a leisurely sword danced like a storm in his hand.

The leisurely sword was originally a combination of the ten great swords of the ancients, and it inadvertently inhaled Xiong Wei's original "Feifei" and the unique weapon of the old monster of Montenegro, the "nine" word knife, as well as some aura.

At this time, the leisurely sword seemed to have encountered an unprecedented provocation, and it couldn't help but show its powers. The leisurely sword emitted a dazzling white light, and only the sound of "click" could be heard, and the weapons in the hands of Huang Taiji and many Jurchens were broken one by one.

The bear pounced on Nurhachi, who seemed a little frightened and did not move.

Huang Taiji and others were shocked.

"Protect the Great Khan!" Huang Taiji shouted.

At the behold, Xiong Wei's sword was about to pierce Nurhachi's throat.

"Bang!" Nurhachi slashed at Xiong Wei.

Nurhachi is a hero on horseback, very strong. He pulled out the big knife he was carrying, pulled out the crowd, and duel Xiong Wei with one sword.

It turned out that Nurhachi was not stupid, but used static braking, saw the direction and moves of Xiong Wei's attack, and then counterattacked.

Although the Youran Sword is powerful, it does not show its true power compared to Nurhachi's broadsword.

Xiong Wei's leisurely sword did not cut Nurhachi's broadsword.

He was in a hurry, and with a wave of his fingers, a powerful sword qi stabbed at Nurhachi.

The tangible divine sword Nurhachi could see that this invisible sword qi was invincible to Nurhachi.

A sword aura hit Nurhachi's throat directly, and Nurhachi couldn't help coughing a few times and fainted.

Everyone didn't know why, thinking that Nurhachi had been attacked by Xiong Wei, and they all shouted: "Great Khan!"

"Kill him!" said the crowd again.

Xiong Wei saw that Nurhachi had been killed by himself, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He didn't know where the strength came from, and he felt full of energy.

"Hmph!" Xiong Wei turned up slightly at the corners of his mouth and sneered, "Don't think that I am afraid of you because there are many of you." ”

He squinted at Nurhachi again and said, "I didn't expect my sword qi to be so powerful. ”

"Uncle Ben doesn't have time to play with you. After he finished speaking, the sword qi swept away, and everyone subconsciously flashed back. Xiong Wei lifted the leisurely sword, flew over everyone's heads, and said goodbye without saying goodbye.
