Chapter 2209: It's about life
In fact, after calming down, Geldan didn't want to kill Hiroshi now, this defeat was not entirely Hiroshi's fault, anyone who led the troops would be defeated, even him was no exception.
Therefore, after Hongshi said this, he said coldly: "Five thousand men and horses, are you going to sneak attack the Qing army camp?" But Yongzheng is not Li Shumi, and your sneak attack will not be as big as last time. ”
Hiroshi gritted his teeth and said, "I know, but I will definitely win, even if it is for my own life." King Khan, please give me one last chance. This time, if you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent! ”
"King Khan, don't believe him, he said so much, it was clearly to save his life, maybe he would flee after getting the 5,000 men and horses given by King Khan." As soon as Ali Mo's words fell, Hongshi said: "These five thousand soldiers are all your Zhungar people, does the general think they will listen to me and let me leave?" ”
Alimo came back to his senses and felt that it was unlikely, but the words had already been spoken, and he couldn't take them back, so he could only say stiffly: "You are so scheming, who knows what the hell you have to do." ”
"King Khan......" Before Hongshi could say, Geldan had already said: "Okay, this king will give you 5,000 men and horses, if you lose again, even if you flee to the ends of the earth, this king will take your dog's life." ”
"Thank you, King Khan! Thank you, King Khan! Hiroshi hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him. At this moment, even if Geldan asked Hiroshi to kneel and lick his boots like a dog, he would not hesitate to do it, because he wanted to live, live regardless of the qiē, and then go and regain the one that belonged to him. Forbearance for four years, just for this moment, how can you lose, how can you lose!
After Hiroshi went out, Ali Mo said, "King Khan, do you really think that Hiroshi can win with these five thousand men?" It's impossible, why would you say yes to him? ”
Geldan stroked his forehead and took a long breath and said, "Alimo, Yinzhen has forced us to this point with a rabble, do you think you or this king will definitely be able to defeat him?" ”
Alimo was stunned for a moment, and then said: "There are more of us than him, and our strength is stronger than him, if we have to fight to the death, we will definitely win." Having said that, he was a little lacking in confidence.
"Maybe, but after winning, how many people can we have left, can we conquer the capital, this king has already inquired, Yunli stayed in the capital, and there are Fengtai battalions and infantry yamen inside, a full sixty or seventy thousand horses, and these people are not a rabble, they are all elite generals. If the number of people is less than 100,000, if you want to conquer the capital, it is simply a fool's dream, not to mention that there are 200,000 troops behind you. ”
Ali Mo was speechless, and after a while, Fang said hatefully: "According to his subordinates, this qiē is all Hongshi's fault, if he hadn't been instigating the Khan King to stay in the Sarik River, maybe we would have conquered the capital, this person really deserves to die." ”
"You're right, he really deserves to die, but not now, this victory or defeat is about his own life, and this king believes that no matter what he ends up for, this time, he will definitely go all out. Besides, even if we lose, we will only lose 5,000 men and horses, which is not a loss of muscles. "One thing, Geerdan didn't say, the reason why he didn't dare to kill Hongshi now, the most important reason is the fear of Yongzheng, this person is extremely experienced in soldiers, and does not follow common sense, although he has fought a lifetime of battles, but really want to face Yongzheng, the odds of winning...... Not even fifty percent, so he could only bet on Hiroshi.
Hongshi didn't hear these words, and even if he did, he didn't have time to think about it, he was all focused on the sneak attack at night, and he had to overcome the enemy who was multiple to himself in order to win, but with Yinzhen's temperament, he would definitely be on guard. It's really hard to win, but no matter how hard it is, you have to win.
At the same time, although the Qing army eliminated almost twice as many enemies as itself, it can be said that the victory was beautiful. But there was no joy, for for the battle they had lost nearly 20,000 men, many of whom had been wounded by mistake during the firing of muskets or by carrying the enemy.
When burying them, Ling Ruo saw the corpses of the Junggar soldiers piled aside, and said softly, "Your Majesty, it's better to bury them together." ”
Yun Qi happened to pass by, and when he heard this, he said angrily: "Madam, these people have killed so many of us, so let them expose the corpses in the wilderness, and sympathize with them What do these wicked people do." Besides, it should be a matter for Junggar to be buried, so what do we have to do with it? Yun Qi had seen Ling Ruo and knew Ling Ruo's identity, but he didn't know the grievances between his dead Eniang and Ling Ruo.
"They don't necessarily have to be bad people, the reason why they meet each other in life and death is only because of the different positions they stand for, and now that everyone is dead, what's the point of talking about the grievances in life." Seeing that Yun Qi was unconvinced, she no longer insisted on it, after all, her identity, it was not appropriate to say this.
Yin Zhen thought for a while and said: "Yun Qi, according to Concubine Guifei's words, cover up those people together, and it can be regarded as accumulating some yin virtue." And ......" The latter words, Yinzhen didn't continue, as for Yunqi, although he still looked disapplieving, but Yinzhen's words, he didn't dare to refute, and arched his hand: "Brother leads the order." ”
After everyone was buried, it was already sunset, and this large area, it seemed, as they had seen before, had not changed much, at most some of the ground was stained red with blood, but they knew in their hearts that it was different, because tens of thousands of people were buried underground.
When night fell, Yin Zhen told Yun Qi and Sol Li to let them patrol carefully to prevent the Zhun Geer faction from sneaking attack, the reason why Li Shumi was defeated so quickly was because of negligence.
And things are indeed as Yin Zhen expected, Hongshi with five thousand soldiers, quietly approached the Qing camp under the cover of night, but stopped when there was still a mile left, not that they didn't want to get closer, but there were patrols everywhere in this area, and once they got close, it was easy to be discovered. This range is also out of the range of artillery, ensuring that no artillery will hit the camp without anyone spotting it.
However, this did not have any effect on Hiroshi, and he thought hard for a long time during the day, and finally made him think of how to sneak attack. Yongzheng, do you like to hurt others and yourself? Okay, I'll show you too.
A cold smile curled into the corner of Hiroshi's mouth, and he gestured to the soldiers behind him, and those people immediately scattered according to the plan they had set before. In this way, the ambush was in the middle of the night, and it was not until the dead of night that the action began.
