Chapter 385: Rocky Beach
Chapter 385 Rocky Beach
……
When the explosion at the south gate came, Zhao Guozuo had just climbed the north gate tower with more than 100 personal soldiers......
After finally finding a back-handed man Ma Degong, and settling the team in the city, Zhao Guozuo returned to the Admiral's Mansion, hastily rolled up some gold and silver, and hit a few big burdens, and then went straight to the north gate with his own soldiers.
He had already made up his mind, and in the name of inspecting the defense of the North Gate, he found an excuse to hurry away.
Looking at the situation, the Ming thieves are powerful, the murderers are more auspicious, and the Fuzhou Mansion will soon be surrounded, and the brigade will not be able to get out.
The whole city was cannon fodder, and the only thing he could bring with him was the most reliable personal soldier - he needed someone to help him carry his baggage.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he ascended the tower, before he could pretend to lecture the guards of the city, he heard a series of explosions from the south gate.
Zhao Guozuo made a quick decision, ordered the city gate to be opened without hesitation, and fled on his horse surrounded by all the soldiers, leaving a group of guards stunned.
Unexpectedly, not long after leaving the city, Bendang encountered a group of thieves who hurriedly came to close the mountain, and after a fierce battle, under the blow of the dense fire of the thieves, more than half of the cavalry team of more than 100 people was killed and wounded in a blink of an eye.
Under the desperate resistance of all the soldiers, Zhao Guozuo was able to abandon his horse and escape, crawled into the forest with a rolling belt, stumbled along the mountain road, and absconded all the way to the northeast......
Along the way, there were all soldiers, and Zhao Guozuo's side was still followed by fewer and fewer personal soldiers, and there were less than twenty people, and most of them still had no backpacks.
Fortunately, at this time, they finally got rid of the entanglement of the pursuers, and the sky gradually darkened, and the group was like a lost dog, turning around in the mountains in panic.
After running for a while, I just got out of a small forest, and suddenly I saw a flower in front of me, and I saw a forest of torches on the mountain in the distance, and I don't know how many people were waiting for me.
"This, this, how...... Haven't run out yet? ”
The three dogs who hit the head screamed loudly.
The soldiers behind him also looked at each other in shock, and then they all collapsed to the ground, panting for breath.
Even under the fright, Zhao Guozuo also felt that his legs and stomachs were spinning, and his whole body seemed to be falling apart, and he had no strength at all.
He looked around sadly, and more than a dozen of his own soldiers were also colorless, looking deflated and unable to run.
Zhao Guozuo couldn't help but look miserable and complained.
Under such circumstances, even if they can really escape into the mountains, they will not even be able to take their lives from the fierce beasts in the mountains.
However, no matter how tired and difficult it is, you have to run! If you don't run, won't you wait for death?
Zhao Guozuo had no choice but to beat his spirits and cheer up his soldiers with frightening and coaxing......
I just scared the three dogs and them a few words, but I heard that the chasing soldiers behind me were faintly coming.
"Mom, chase so hard?"
Zhao Guozuo's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly pulled up the three dogs, beckoning the soldiers to run away.
In a panic, I didn't know how to drop, I ran and ran, and suddenly found that there was no road ahead - in addition to a few cliffs in front of me, there was a deep ditch, and in front of the ditch was a large barren beach lined with rocks.
Zhao Guozuo was shocked - "This, this is a Jedi!" ”
However, the pursuers behind him were getting closer and closer, and soon, even their mutual greetings could be heard clearly.
Everyone panicked, and headless flies scurried around the rocks, looking for their way.
However, apart from cliffs and cliffs, there is no road!
There was no way out, but the guns of the pursuers behind him rang out, and the bullets flew "whizzing", and after hitting the rocks, sparks splashed and clanged.
Zhao Guozuo was in a big mess, and in a hurry, he hurriedly ran into a pile of rocks, shrunk and drilled behind a stone crack......
……
Tracing all the way was the first platoon of the youth battalion led by Wang Dong himself.
After accepting the task of closing the mountain, He Shouxin didn't say a word, and immediately led the troops to march all the way, and hurried to the area of Jinji Mountain and Pingshan in the northeast of Fucheng.
During the march, he called the commanders of the companies and platoons of the juvenile battalion and the guard company and ordered the juvenile battalion to disperse its actions, and to guard the various passages into the mountains with platoons as units, and resolutely block the scattered Tartars.
And his guard company strengthened the platoons of the junior battalion in squads, and supported the young soldiers in combat with strong firepower.
And the more than 1,000 Zheng troops who followed closely were sent by him to the front line of Beilingtou and Bijia Mountain, which were farther away from the city, to pull up the second encirclement network.
He Shouxin knew that once the south gate was smashed open, a large number of Tartars would inevitably break out from the other gates, and Funing Prefecture in the north was the only way for the Tartars to survive.
No matter where they escaped, they would eventually have to cross this mountain, at least to the seashores around Luoyuan and Ningde, before they had the opportunity to find a sea ship and flee north to Zhejiang.
As for other directions, it is useless to flee, Lianjiang and Dinghai in the east are already in the hands of the Zheng army's fleet, and fleeing there is equivalent to throwing yourself into a net.
And the northwest direction is a dead end, not to mention that Minqing County has been in the hands of Wang Xing, the farther Xianxia Ridge has also been lost for a long time, Zhejiang and Fujian have long been no road, vainly trying to escape back to Zhejiang by land is impossible, at most in the deep mountains to fall into the grass, just linger.
However, the mountains in this area are dense and the terrain is extremely complex, and there are only a few roads into the mountains where the large number of Tartars escape, and as for the many hidden paths, no matter how many people come, they can't block them.
Therefore, instead of letting this group of Ming troops follow them in the mountains, it is better to let them wait behind them and catch small schools of fish that have slipped through the net.
After receiving the order, Wang Dong asked Wen Biaorui to take the battalion headquarters to break off, and he personally led the first platoon, under the leadership of the veterans of the guard company, and took the lead and went directly to Jinji Mountain outside the north gate.
Unexpectedly, to Wang Dong's surprise, they rushed all the way, just arrived at the destination, and before they could build a position, they encountered the first group of Tartar routs who galloped - Zhao Guozuo and his own soldiers......
Meet on a narrow road, a fierce battle!
Under the rain of bullets from dozens of rifles, more than 100 of Zhao Guozuo's cavalry were overwhelmed, and dozens of people were killed and wounded immediately......
In a hurry, it was unfavorable to go out of the division, and the first battle let the Tartar run most of the time, and Xiao Wang Dong was very unwilling.
He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, leaving half of the people to continue to build a position, and personally led more than 20 people to chase all the way.
Don't look at this Wang Dong's age, but he has been hunting in the mountains with his father since he was a child, and he has a lot of experience in tracing and tracking in the inaccessible mountains.
Along the way, he led the warriors to chase and stop, following the trail of the Tartars, although not fast, but never thrown off by the Tartars.
Finally chased closer, there were several cliffs in front of him, and Wang Dong's eyes immediately lit up with brilliance - God help me!
Immediately, the soldiers of the youth battalion saw the Tartars scurrying around in front of them from a distance, and under a burst of random shots, they immediately knocked down a few.
Seeing that more Tartars were hiding in the pile of rubble, Wang Dong was unwilling to waste any more bullets, so with a gesture, he personally brought six or seven soldiers and surrounded him with bayonets.
