Chapter 14: The Battle of Yangzhou (5)
Qing Army
Soldier A hurriedly ran to the front of Duoduo, then knelt on the ground, and said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, although the small ones hurriedly rescued the grain and grass, the grain and grass were still burned, basically, it was basically over."
At this time, another soldier on the other side also ran over, knelt down in front of Duoduo, and whispered: "Lord, our horses have been killed, and our cannons have been destroyed......
After hearing this, Duoduo only felt that the sky was dark, how could he have suffered such a big setback since his debut, especially when facing the Han people, he was made like this by unknown people, it was unbearable or unbearable, and he couldn't just let it go.
At this time, another soldier ran over and said to Duoduo: "Lord Wang, the hundreds of Baturu that we rushed over just now are all killed."
After hearing this, Duoduo rolled his eyes, spit out a mouthful of blood from his mouth, and fainted, and Kong Youde, the general of the Ming Dynasty beside him, hurriedly rushed up, supported Duoduo, and shouted to the others: "Hurry, hurry, send the prince back."
The other generals also hurriedly ran over, hugged the unconscious Duoduo, and rushed to Yangzhou City, now that Duoduo is in a coma, he must deal with Duoduo's affairs first, and everything else is not important.
The next day, the sky has all been bright, the entire Yangzhou city is filled with smoke, although the grain and grass have been extinguished, but the black smoke has been rising, the people in the city, can run basically all the run, can not run are also bad old men, bad old women, the Qing army has no desire to see them. This is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, not only is there no food and grass, but also there is no 'tool' for indulgence.
At this time, Duoduo had already returned to the luxurious dormitory in Yangzhou City, his face was white with his eyes closed, and he had been in a coma. Standing next to them, Kong Youde, Han Dai, Abatai, Baiyitu, Erde, etc., they were anxiously waiting for Duoduo to wake up, if Duoduo had any mistakes, it was estimated that Dolgon in Beijing would not let them go.
——————————
After Liu Xia successfully led Duoduo's army into the firing range of the artillery, he hurriedly left, running all the way to the original grove, and then took the logistics team and advanced in one direction for a while, stopped, according to Jing Xiao's estimate, even if Duoduo sent troops to ask for cavalry reinforcements to arrive, it would take a while, so there was not much danger now, and there were more than a dozen people from Zhang Yuan who did not come back.
At this time, the sun was already hanging high in the sky, the sky was already clear, and the place where Liu Xia was now was in a bush and jungle, and there was no one for dozens of miles around.
Liu Xia shouted: "Brothers, get off the horse, take out the slices of meat on your bodies and give them to the logistics team, everyone replenishes their strength, and after eating for a while, it may be a long way to go."
The soldiers were excited, they didn't sleep all night, and they hadn't eaten, and they were all hungry and empty at this time, if Liu Xia hadn't given an order, they would have taken it out and eaten it a long time ago.
Liu Xia got off the horse first, and then helped Xia Sai down, Xia Sai's face was red at this time, his head was lowered, he didn't know what he was thinking, Liu Xia didn't have the time and energy to observe Xia Sai, so he didn't notice.
After a while, the logistics team basically warmed up the meat slices, and distributed all the meat slices to the soldiers, originally wanting to prepare more good ones for Liu Xia and go hunting around, but Liu Xia immediately vetoed it, and personally took the hot meat slices, came to the soldiers, and ate them together.
While eating, he said, so a few bold soldiers shouted at Liu Xia: "General, I heard that you captured the first beauty of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Queen Mother of the Tartars, I don't know if it's true or not."
As soon as the soldier finished speaking, the others also began to coax, not only the soldiers, but also those generals, who also looked at Liu Xia happily at this time.
Liu Xia glanced at the generals fiercely, and secretly scolded these guys in his heart, and even coaxed them.
Then Liu Xia smiled and said, "The Queen Mother of the Tartars? I don't, if you can catch me, I have." Originally, Liu Xia was just joking.
After Liu Xia said this, the soldiers suddenly shouted, "Fight Beijing and catch the Queen Mother."
In the end, it stopped under Liu Xia's order, this is not a chaotic place, and there may be Tartar scouts around. On the other side, Xia Sai sat alone on a rock, holding the piece of meat that had been held by him tightly, biting it with his little teeth little by little.
Although Liu Xia didn't have any arrogance to joke with these soldiers, these soldiers had a taste of committing crimes, but this also made many soldiers support Liu Xia even more. Eating, talking, and laughing with the soldiers is the best way to enhance the relationship.
Liu Xia and the others had just eaten food, and suddenly a scout ran over and said to Liu Xia excitedly: "General, general, battalion commander Zhang Yuan is back."
Liu Xia suddenly became excited, there was no news of Zhang Yuan for so long, and there were definitely a lot of soldiers in the place where he went deep into the enemy's interior. The danger can be imagined, it is really a life of death. Liu Xia and the various generals immediately stood up, and then walked in that direction.
I saw fifteen fierce men riding horses, wearing tartar clothes covered with cigarette ash, under the guidance of the scouts, slowly walked over, and there was no one missing, which made Liu Xia overjoyed, and hurriedly walked in front of Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan saw Liu Xia coming over in person, immediately jumped off the horse, and said to Liu Xia with high morale: "Tell the general, the task is all completed, we have not lost a single brother, and the general will bring them all back."
"Yes, yes, Zhang Yuan, you did a great job, you have made a great contribution" Jing Xiao looked at Zhang Yuan with a smile, and then continued: "The brothers are all tired, now go eat something, and then let's move on."
"Yes, General" and then Zhang Yuan said to the fourteen brothers behind him: "Brothers! Let's go, let's eat! ”

In the city of Yangzhou
Lying on the splendid bed in the palatial room, Duoduo, whose face was very pale, coughed inadvertently, and immediately attracted the Manchu soldiers around him, and they all hurriedly surrounded him.
Duoduo slowly opened his bloodshot eyes, glanced at the soldiers, and suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "I can't find out who attacked my department?" ”
Abatai's eyes wandered when he saw Duoduo looking at him, for he had not found out who had attacked them, had not captured any prisoners at all, and had now found no trace of them in the entire city of Yangzhou.
Needless to say, at this time Duoduo already knew the result, so he shouted: "Rice bucket, give me out, and immediately inform Prince Rui of the matter here, and let Prince Rui send troops from other places to find out where those enemy troops are now, and destroy them."
As soon as Duoduo finished speaking, one of the soldiers stepped forward and said, "Lord Wang, our grain and grass equipment have been burned, and now, we have nothing to eat."
When Duoduo heard this, he immediately shouted angrily: "Get out, get out of Lao Tzu immediately, do you still want this king to teach you?" Won't you rob it, isn't there a Han dog around here? ”。
Duoduo's words made those Han generals embarrassed, but Duoduo didn't care about those Han generals at this time.
…………
At the same time that Duoduo's letter was sent to Beijing as soon as possible, the news of the defeat of Duoduo's army in Yangzhou City also began to spread, and now the cities around Yangzhou City basically knew that Duoduo's army was being messed up by a Han army, and it was embarrassing.
After Nanjing ** got the news on the same day, although he didn't know who commanded the battle and how many people there were, he was very happy to call this unknown hero 'Dingbei Bo' and 'Yangzhou General Army'.
The reason why Nanjing ** is so generous, on the one hand, although it is indeed worthless titles, on the other hand, it shows that Nanjing** is afraid of the Manchu Tartars, and the Hongguang regime in Nanjing has always advocated peace with the Tartars and ruled by dividing the river. But the Tartars did not bird him at all, and soon the Tartars drove their army to Yangzhou City, and then it was rumored that the Tartars were going to attack the city of Nanjing.
At this time, many people in Nanjing City were ready to surrender at this time, but the arrival of this unknown army made it impossible for the Tartars to attack Nanjing again, and Nanjing City was saved. But if you don't attack this time, it doesn't mean that you won't attack in the future, so Nanjing ** rewarded this army that I don't know who led it as the Marquis of Dingbei, and it was here to win over.
In a teahouse in Nanjing
At this time, an old storyteller was talking to a group of listeners, talking about the events of Yangzhou City that happened this morning or night.
"It is said that thirty-three days later, the Jade Emperor heard that the world was suffering, so he immediately sent heavenly soldiers and generals............ The tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals, wielding fairy weapons, shouted at the Tartar army, this shout was not important, and I saw that the Tartar was suddenly turned on his back............ As soon as the heavenly soldiers and generals came out, with a wave of their hands, they burned the grain and grass of the Tartars, and they burned them cleanly, leaving nothing behind...... Then he ...... "The old master said this, picked up the cup of fine Maojian tea that he had poured in front of him, and tasted it carefully.
But this was a hurry, and the guests, who were listening with relish, shouted to the old master, "What's next?" ”
"That's right, what did the Heavenly General do next? Did you enter the city of Beijing and drive the Tartar out?" this guy just finished speaking, and was despised by everyone, it was really enough to think of the idea of driving the Tartar out of Beijing.
The old master smiled at everyone and said, "If you want to know the future, please ......" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Er walking up with an empty iron plate......
