Chapter Ninety-Nine: General Li Three Escapes (2)

After listening to Huang Ji's description, Wang Lei fought a cold war.

"The regiment thinks that the Qing soldiers will set up an ambush here?"

Huang Ji shook his head: "I'm just taking precautions, tell the brothers, be careful!" ”

……

On the Huashan, there is a military fort built by the Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period.

At that time, the state of Chu built the Great Wall on the peaks around the Nanyang Basin to defend the Central Plains.

This pass is a natural defect in the Nanyang Basin, and it is naturally the focus of Chu's national defense.

Around Fangcheng, the Chu State built a lot of military forts, and this is how the name of Fangcheng came from.

In the village of Chuangwang, there are several wells and hundreds of houses.

When the pioneer company passed by this place, he deliberately went up the mountain to check it first.

I saw that the southern slope of this Chuang Wangzhai was relatively gentle, and the east, west and north sides were precipices.

The city wall adopts the inner soil and outer stone construction method, the city wall is as high as two zhang, and the base is as wide as one zhang, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

"This place is suitable for garrisoning!"

After searching all the houses, no Tibetans were found, but the weeds were overgrown to a depth of one person.

Lian Zheng laughed, then closed the team and continued to walk towards Ye County.

There are cliffs dozens of feet high on three sides, and only on this side of the official road is a gentle slope.

Since there is no one in the cottage, there is no fear that someone will ambush here!

Lian Zheng, who walked out of the gate of the southeast corner, didn't notice at all that the camp that had been abandoned for decades had no idea why the well rope was so new and straight......

When the rebels had gone away, in the barren and grassy camp, the wheels carrying water suddenly creaked......

There was a long breath from the well, and a pale hand came out......

……

The sun is setting in the west......

The rebels, dressed in dark green uniforms, walked between the saddle-shaped peaks.

This official road spreads along Huashan Mountain and then passes between the two peaks.

"Tuanzheng, my left eye is always jumping, and I always feel that something bad is going to happen, do you want to send someone to search the mountains on both sides?"

Wang Lei was a little anxious, I don't know why, as soon as he came here, he felt flustered.

Huang Ji shook his head: "It's late, everyone has arrived at the bottom of the mountain, there is no difference between searching and not searching, you don't do anything, let the brothers stay in battle formation and pass through here quickly!" ”

He looked at the soldiers on both sides who were holding their guns and aimed at the hills on either side......

I only hope that even if there are Qing soldiers hiding, after seeing his response, I don't dare to attack!

……

On the top of the mountain, Li Cang, with a hundred and ten elite soldiers, looked at the rebels under the mountain in amazement.

"How else is this going to be fought?"

Li Cang's eyes widened.

Dog's day, why are these rebellious rabbit cubs more capable than his regular army!

Who has ever seen an army marching with a gun in both hands, looking ready to attack?

He'd seen how powerful the rebels' firearms were!

People's muskets do not need to use incendiary arquebuses, and they can be fired with a single pull of the trigger.

Although it is not much faster than their rate of fire, however, people's guns can be loaded with medicine first, and then wait for the right time!

And the arquebus they used, after loading the bullets, had to be fired within ten breaths, otherwise the arquebus would need to be replaced again when the arquebus ran out.

Seeing the posture of the rebels, Li Cang knew that the guns of these rebel soldiers were already loaded.

If they dare to show their heads, they only need to pull the trigger and the bullets will come!

……

"Li Tou, I can't find someone to be an official!"

Some of the family members looked at it for a long time, and the arquebuses were replaced by two or three pieces, but they never saw the rebel generals.

The long list of rebels below measured the earth with a pair of feet, and even the clothes were a style - not to mention the big officials in the sedan chair, not even the young generals who rode on horseback!

It's not like them......

Their generals, when on the march, rode horses were considered vulgar.

When Yongli was fought back then, why were the casualties so heavy in the battle of Mopan Mountain?

Just because the generals of the Eight Banners at that time began to sit in a sedan chair, and even sat in a luxury sedan chair carried by four people!

After this battle, the Qing court was shaken, and all the princes of the Eight Banners clan who participated in the battle were fined silver for substitution, and Zhuo Butai, the general of Zhengnan, was even directly cut to the people!

"Spank a fart!"

Li Cang gritted his teeth.

Hit a few minions and fold yourself in, it's not a good deal!

"Then how do you explain to the master when you go back?"

Some family members frowned and said:

"The master treats us well, if we go back empty-handed, I'm afraid we will be punished!"

"I'm going to hit you!"

Li Cang snorted coldly.

Is it bad to be alive?

I didn't see what kind of formation people were!

Seeing that the rebels were all ready to fight, even though they had the advantage of being the first mover, they were able to open one more round and kill some of the rebels first......

However, the terrain they are on is a Jedi!

Once the shots are fired, there is only one way to die......

Li Cang put away the gun, took off the fire rope, and sat in the corner.

Although the terrain of Chuangwangzhai is steep, this is also a Jedi!

As long as the shot is fired, there is no chance of survival......

Dog's day, for a few small soldiers, gave his life, he didn't do this job!

……

Huang Ji looked at the Yecheng City in front of him, turned his head to look at Huashan, which had turned into a small mountain, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The feeling that Huashan gave him just now was too dangerous, like facing a beast that wanted to choose people to devour.

It was getting dark, and Huang Ji hurriedly began to set up camp, and sent a group of soldiers to build siege equipment overnight.

Early the next morning, he launched a fierce attack on the county seat of Yexian, and the rebels launched round after round of onslaught against the artillery fire of the Qing soldiers......

Even, the demolition team even blew open the city gate, who knows, behind the city gate, there are bricks and stones blocking the city gate hole.

After two days of strong attack, Huang Ji killed and wounded more than 300 soldiers, but he never took Yexian.

It wasn't until the evening of the third day, after Yang Qilong captured Wuyang, that he came over for reinforcements, and the two came up with a solution.

Huang Ji sent people to build a camp by a small river on the left overnight, making it look like a large army was coming to help.

Early the next morning, Yang Qilong asked his soldiers to drag the branches and came towards the camp.

These soldiers, with great fanfare, dismounted and entered the camp, but secretly led the horses back from the ditch, and then repeatedly.

At the same time, cannons carved out of wood were placed in front of the battalion.

……

General Li was about to hold on, but he didn't know that he saw the rebels attacking on a large scale.

Seeing the cannons outside the city aiming at the city, he suddenly remembered the scene when he was in Yuzhou, when he was almost killed by the rebels' artillery.

General Li Shen sighed, abandoned Ye County overnight, and took the family that had shrunk by half again, and rushed to Lushan County, Ruzhou, twenty miles to the east.
