Chapter 570 is sent under the fence

Seeing this situation, Cui Duyan was quite satisfied.

Fortunately, I didn't look away, and these guerrillas who were in person were really honest people, although they couldn't talk about taking the lead, but they drove away the chaotic soldiers and set up formations, but they were still very hard.

This group of regrouped defeated soldiers is also big-hearted, and in this case, they can still see the money, and they are willing to gamble their lives for a few taels of silver.

"Sure enough, people died for money,"

Cui Duyan said secretly, "Such a fierce soldier who is not afraid of death, it's a pity, if it was led by Lao Tzu early in the morning, why would it be so chaotic......"

"Stretch! Baste! Baste! ”

While he was thinking wildly, a bowstring suddenly sounded.

When I looked up, I saw several archers lying on the roof of the house straightening up and releasing arrows forward, and then there was a chaotic and heavy footstep in the darkness ahead, accompanied by a loud shout: "Don't shoot arrows!" Don't shoot arrows! Own! ”

Cui Duyan was stunned for a moment, and before he could understand, he saw that the soldiers had already given way to the defensive line, and then a group of people rushed out of it.

Cui looked at it with one eye, but saw a young man carrying a firecracker, and while rushing towards him, he shouted, "My lord...... My lord...... Humble is the new army...... Mr. Qian...... Jijun ......"

"Mr. Wang Qian?"

Looking at the panting little officer in front of him, as well as the more than 100 firecrackers who came over one after another behind him, Cui Duyan was shocked and suspicious.

"My lord, the thieves are attacking at night, and the south gate is ...... The South Gate has been defeated......"

"Wait,"

Cui Duyan raised his hand, "What about you Lord Meng?" ”

"It's so ...... It's a mess,"

Wang Qian was always undecided, "Lord Meng and the inferior rank...... Lost contact, nowhere to be found......"

“……”

Cui Duyan was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.

He didn't care about the life or death of Meng Tietou's sour son, but this team ...... Are you really here to join yourself?

This "new army" is a unique existence in Yangzhou City.

There are not many of them, but it was the military master who put a lot of blood into pulling them up, and they were the "baby bumps" in his eyes.

The power of the new-style firecracker in their hands Cui Duyan has also seen it with his own eyes, and it is really fast, far, and accurate - it is said that this is the Western goods that the imperial court spent a great deal of money to buy not long ago, in addition to not being able to fire continuously, the power is no less than the quick robbery of the thief......

Speaking of which, the contradiction between him and Meng Tietou actually originated from this "new army".

At the beginning, when this batch of new-style firecrackers first arrived, he thought that Ma Junmen would naturally give priority to the standard battalion under his command.

After all, this standard camp is full of children from the hometown - as long as there are good things, haven't they always been satisfied with their hometown party first?

Unexpectedly, Ma Junmen unexpectedly formed another team, and handed over this "experimental" force with high hopes to Meng Tietou, a sour son, which caused great dissatisfaction among himself.

He still remembered that he was envious, jealous and hateful!

Since then, he has regarded Meng Tietou as an opponent everywhere......

"Your Excellency...... The situation is urgent, please ......."

Seeing that he didn't say a word, Wang Jijun panicked, hurriedly clenched his fists and waists, and said in an eager and tentative tone, "Humble duty, humble duty is willing to ...... His Royal Highness"

Just now, as soon as the gunfire started, he immediately made a decision - go to the north gate and find the main force of the standard battalion to rendezvous!

As a "traitor" who has been in the "side" for a few months, experience tells him that if the captive army does not fight an unprepared battle, no matter whether the fire cannot be raised, this Yangzhou city will be destroyed tonight!

The friendly troops at the south gate were almost all pinned into the camp, and the scene was chaotic, he knew very well that the situation was irreversible, and even if he found Lord Meng, it would be useless, and it would be too late.

It's even more useless to resist alone, it's basically a moth to a fire and die in vain.

For today's plan, the only way to go straight to the north gate to find Vice General Cui is to lean back against the big tree, maybe you can make a difference......

"People...... All brought out? ”

Wang Jijun was anxious, but Cui Duyan was not in a hurry or slow, and answered the question.

He looked at it in a blink of an eye, there were at least more than 100 people in front of him, and he knew that in the battle of Simon, there were not many of these firecrackers left, and it seemed that they had not suffered much loss tonight, and the establishment was still there.

"Both...... It's all here! ”

Wang Jijun snorted.

This short-tempered lieutenant general has always been at odds with his boss, and now he is under the fence, and he has no bottom at all.

"Well,"

didn't think about it, Cui Duyan waved his hand, and said very generously, "I don't need your palace, and go to the camp to rest for a while......"

"Da Da Da! Da-da-da-da! ”

"Sneer......"

Before he could finish his words, there was a gunfire like bursting beans behind the wall.

"What's going on?"

Cui was one-eyed and excited, and he was so shocked that he almost stumbled.

"Your Excellency...... Adult ......"

A pro-soldier ran over panting, "My lord, outside the city, there are also thieves outside the city......"

"Huh?"

Cui Duyan's heart sank suddenly, and he hurriedly waved his hand, "Let's go!" Check it out! ”

……

At this moment, in the barracks outside the north gate, Sun Guolin, the commander of the Zhejiang soldiers, was hiding behind a fortress wall, looking at the pile of corpses on the opposite bank and the pontoon bridge......

It turned out that just as he was listening to the continuous loud noises in the city and was in doubt, Vice General Cui's herald arrived.

The military order is very clear - the army is about to retreat, so he immediately sent a sentry to search all the way to the area of Shugang Pass to inquire about the situation.

As soon as he received this military order, he understood a little, and he felt that he was lucky to be stationed at the North Gate.

Naturally, he didn't dare to slack off, and quickly dispatched a sentry to repeatedly explain - he must clear the obstacles for the army.

Afterwards, he personally picked up the barracks, watched the more than 100 subordinates with his eyes, and watched them quickly cross the pontoon bridge and go to the official road......

To be honest, he felt that this task was not very dangerous - he was very confident in the morale and combat effectiveness of his team!

He firmly believed that if he really encountered the ambush of a small group of thieves, his subordinates would not retreat, and would definitely fight to eliminate them in one fell swoop.

For this thief outside the city, although there are rumors everywhere that the attack power is extremely powerful, which everyone has never seen before, and he himself has indeed heard this kind of rapid gunfire many times, he still doesn't believe in the authenticity of the rumors.

As the saying goes, "hearing is false", and if you have never really encountered it, you are not so afraid.

In fact, although he is also a Zhejiang soldier, his team is indeed different from those in the city.

Even when they were in Zhejiang, they never confronted this gang of thieves head-on, and they never suffered a major blow.

At the beginning, they were stationed in the capital city of Huzhou, and before they saw the shadow of the Ming thief, they were taken across the river by the defeated governor and retreated to Yangzhou.

When they arrived, they were transferred to Admiral Marsh, and they remained in this prosperous city.

Because the organization was relatively complete, Ma Daren placed them alone in this camp in the north of the city from the beginning, and the supply of food and grass was also sufficient, so they enjoyed themselves and did not participate in the plundering of the city, and did not care whether they set fire or not.
