Chapter 446: The Qing Army is Coming

Wu Weiying rode on a horse and craned her neck to look at the dark mountain shadow in the distance, and turned her head to look at Ningyang City, which was getting farther and farther away, like a lantern in the wilderness.

The infantry battalion followed closely behind, carrying guns in the snow, panting and numb, and finally there were more than a dozen baggage trucks, loaded with shells, gunpowder and a little grain and grass.

The night is dark and the wind is high, and the deep mountains and old forests can't light torches to avoid exposing their whereabouts, looking at the dark mountain pass, Wu Weiying is nervous and frightened, and secretly scolds himself for pointing back, he should have been in the capital for wine and food but suffered from this wind and cold for no reason.

Just as he was hesitating in the mountain pass, a group of people came out of the mountain, but it was Fan Jiaqian who came to greet him.

"Gongziying Fan Jiaqian has seen Master Hou".

Wu Weiying snorted, despising a group of eunuchs in her heart, returning to the palace camp, pretending!

But he also knew that the burly eunuch in front of him was Chang Yu's confidant, and he didn't dare to show a trace of disdain, after all, he knew the methods of the little eunuch, so many nobles in the capital wanted to kill him, but he was still alive, but he put several nobles in prison, to put it simply, he couldn't afford to provoke him.

The mountain road is narrow, the snow is full of rocks, the weeds and thorns are dense and the carriages and horses are difficult to walk, Wu Weiying also had to dismount and walk, and under the support of the family, she was deep and shallow and tired.

"When will we get to the ground?" Wu Weiying's throat and eyes were about to burst into flames, and he didn't have any communication with Fan Jiaqian along the way, so he couldn't help but ask at this time.

"Master Hou, you can ride a horse in half a mile," Fan Jiaqian looked up and said lightly. The people brought out by Chang Yu have a sense of arrogance, not only do they have nothing to say, you don't care about me, and the master is too lazy to flatter you, and the people who have served the emperor really don't take you nobles in their eyes.

Wu Weiying let out a long sigh, and a family member carried him on his back and continued to move forward, and after walking for half a mile, he was really cheerful, and a large canyon appeared in front of him.

"There is no other cave in the sky" Wu Weiying praised, and carefully looked around through the snowy mountains, the two sides of this canyon are steep and towering, looking up at the sky only into a line.

If there is an ambush on this top, I am afraid that it will ...... Wu Weiying thought to himself, and suddenly there was a whistling sound in front of him, which was particularly terrifying in the dark night, and he was so frightened that he almost fell off the horse.

"Master Hou, don't be alarmed, dark whistle" Fan Jiaqian raised his hand and pointed to the top of the canyon.

Wu Weiying breathed a sigh of relief, looked up and looked carefully, the white snow on both sides of the strait, the black mixed forests and rocks, where was there a figure.

As if knowing his thoughts, Fan Jiaqian explained: "The forests and weeds on both sides of the strait are dense, and the brothers have set up a nest in it, which is difficult to find during the day.

"That's good, that's good," Wu Weiying nodded, and looked around as she spoke, as if she wanted to find the location of the dark stake.

This is simply a raw melon egg, one can't march and the other doesn't know how to fight, except for pretending, I really don't know what the emperor is sending this kind of goods for, Fan Jiaqian looked at Wu Weiying as if she was curious, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch.

"It's cold and cold on this day, and it's warm to have a grass nest" Wu Weiying sighed suddenly, and said in her heart that she camped in the mountains, and she didn't know what crime she suffered.

"Master Hou, our camp is much better than the one in the city, it is clean, warm and spacious, and the overseer says that it is more comfortable than the General Soldier's Mansion," Fan Jiaqian chuckled.

Wu Weiying looked at him like a fool, the eunuch really didn't have a normal one, is this frozen stupid.

At the mountain pass twenty miles north of Ningyuan City, six or seven Qing army scouts and nearly 100 people wandered around, they were confused and confused at this time.

When it was dark, the Ming army suddenly sent four groups of men and horses and nearly 1,000 people around the city to drive them away, and several spies within a radius of more than ten miles were driven here by them.

Then these Ming troops confronted them, as long as the spies did not take the initiative to attack them and did not move, the confrontation lasted for nearly an hour and then the Ming army began to retreat, but not to withdraw to the city, but to run around outside the city, saying that it was a drill, it was more accurate to say that it was crazy.

The Qing army spies were stunned.

The little eunuch in the city breathed a sigh of relief, and finally sent the Shenji battalion into the mountain unconsciously, as for the Ming army running around outside the city, they were covering up their traces.

The oil lamp in the lobby of the General Soldier's Mansion flickered non-stop, like a candle in the wind, and the little eunuch, Wu Sangui, and Tang Tong sat in the hall, and the atmosphere was a little depressing.

There are more and more Qing troops exploring horses, which means one thing, the Qing army is near!

Ningyuan City seems to be ready, the trenches have been dug, the city walls have been frozen, and some reinforcements have arrived, and they have been deployed according to the plan, but these are not perfect, and more importantly, the grain and grass have not yet arrived.

After the Bada Chamber of Commerce took over the preparation of military rations, because the southern front was tight, it focused on supplying the southern front, but the little eunuch was the major shareholder of the Chamber of Commerce, so he squeezed out a little outside the customs and handed it over to the Chamber of Commerce for transportation.

Across the mountain and across the water, there is wind and snow blocking the road, or delayed, according to Jinyiwei's intelligence has just arrived near the Shanhaiguan entrance, and the two hundred miles of road will take three days at the earliest.

And the vanguard of the Qing army must arrive first, and it will be tricky at that time!

"General" At this time, Shen Jianghu hurried over to break the silence in the hall, but the three of them had a bad premonition at the same time.

Beacon warning!

The beacon tower on the first mountain is blazing and can be seen dozens of miles away.

At the head of Beicheng, Chang Yu frowned: "Could it be that the Qing army spies are besieging the beacon tower......

Wu Sangui shook his head: "The warning signal is different, if a small group of people and horses besiege the beacon tower, they will order the small beacon, the overseer, the Tartars are coming,

It must have been their marching torches for beacon towers, and it was surmised by the visibility that it should be thirty miles away."

It's coming, it's finally here, Chang Yu clenched his fists, he could feel that he was nervous, but even more excited!

Just a little earlier than expected! Moreover, it is uncertain how many people and horses came from the Qing army, because the Qing army's exploration horses were intensively dispatched, and the Ming army's exploration horses could not penetrate for a while, or they could not send out information that had passed.

Wu Sangui immediately sent people out of the city to the Shoushan Beacon Tower to verify the facts, and at the same time speculated the strength of the troops with the light of the Qing army.

"Overseer, General, someone outside the southern city called the door!" At this time, someone came to report, Chang Yu and the others frowned, who would call the door in the middle of the night, if it was reinforcements, the officers and soldiers on duty would not say this.

More than 200 people bowed their heads under the southern city and shouted: "My own people, open the door quickly, ask to see the overseer...... The officers and soldiers in the city scolded to stay away from the city gate, otherwise they would be shot.

The route of the late night is unknown, who knows if it is a Tartar.

The voice was a little familiar, Chang Yu squinted his eyes, he couldn't see it clearly, and turned his head to ask the general on duty: "Didn't you report yourself?"

What are you talking about, Taiyuan is here, isn't this nonsense, Taiyuan is thousands of miles away from here......"

Grass! Chang Yu's heart moved, and he shouted: "Tu Yuan, is it you?" Lao Jia, Lao Jia, is that you? ”
