What Ao Bai didn't expect was that the ten-year-old Qi Geshun, who was only crying or panicking as he imagined, was as if he had heard a message that had nothing to do with him, and he stood silent.

The sudden and huge change made an ignorant teenager mature quickly, of course, it can also be said that it was quickly numb.

"Young Master ......"

"I already know this, and you don't need to say it anymore."

Two tears quietly fell from Qi Geshun's eyes, and he quickly raised his hand to wipe them away, and then showed Ao Bai an embarrassing wry smile.

"Ama used to tell me before that a real Manchurian boy can't shed tears no matter how difficult and painful it is, but I ......, Ama also said that born in the emperor's family, fate is impermanent, rich and poor, all of them can't be independent, they can only treat them with ordinary hearts."

Aobai's throat swelled, and he didn't know how to answer.

Qi Geshun smiled bitterly and said: "Aobai Commander, I know that the situation is urgent now, and it is not a time to be sad, so how to act next depends on Aobai Commander, I have nothing to say." ”

Ao Bai's eyes were filled with tears, he nodded vigorously, and said: "Young master, I don't say much about a certain family, just wait for the arrival of Yang Shan, the young master, you and I will quickly flee south and go to Lushun to join the Tang army." Remember, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, today's revenge, we will repay it in the past! ”

Ziegshun was stunned for a moment, and finally nodded silently.

Soon, Yang Shan, who looked frightened, led a thousand cavalry under him and hurried to join Aobai in the army.

And Aobai, who was already ready, immediately ordered his two thousand cavalry, joined forces with Yang Shan, took Qi Geshun, and quickly left from the military camp outside the east gate of Shengjing, and the whole army went straight to Lushun City in the south, and galloped away.

When Ao Bai Yang Shan fled south with Zigshun, Dolgon was appointing his cronies to go to the mansions of Hauge, Sonny and others to raid their homes and take people.

Cutting the grass is to eradicate the roots, and Dorgon, who has always been ruthless, will never be merciful to his political enemies.

The raid was very smooth, and in the Hauge Mansion, except for Sigshun, who had been hiding in the Aobai army in advance, he escaped by chance, and the rest of the people, including his wife, concubines, children, and servants, all of whom were captured by Dolgon.

Dorgon ordered that all the captives be imprisoned, and that they should be interrogated and convicted separately with Hauge. The large amount of gold, silver, jewelry, calligraphy and painting goods seized were all confiscated into the state treasury for confiscation.

After about an hour, after completing the all-out search of Hauge, Sonny and other mansions, Dolgon gathered a large number of troops and came to the military camp of Aobai with great momentum, preparing to take down the most effective general under Hauge, and also a big thorn in the most disobedient to himself.

What they didn't expect was that they were surprised to find that Ao Bai had already fled with all the elite cavalry in the camp, leaving only a bunch of infantry to stay in the camp.

Soon, the soldiers who went to Yang Shan, another general under Haoge, also came back to report that Yang Shan had also led a thousand elite horsemen to escape and was missing.

Dolgon was furious when he heard the news, and he immediately sent an order to let Shuotuo, the owner of the Red Banner Banner, bring as many as tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and urgently follow the trail to chase and kill the fleeing Ao Bai and Yang Shan.

Shuo Tuo led the order to attack, all the way to chase and kill, but Ao Bai and others fled first, and they were all cavalry, and the speed of action was extremely fast, so Shuo Tuo's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, all the way to chase and catch up, and finally a few days later, to the east of Fuzhou, only to catch up with Ao Bai and others who were about to eat and rest.

Along the way, Shuotuo and others passed through Liaoyang, Haicheng, Yingkou, arrived at Fuzhou, since passing Liaoyang, the scenery they saw was a barren and depressed, the villages and hills were in ruins, the fields were full of weeds, and the people were almost completely inhabited.

When the Tang army withdrew from Liaozhong, it used brutal means to load and transport away as many as 200,000 local residents on ships, and razed all the prefectures, counties, and villages occupied by the local area, turning them into a shocking ruin.

Shuo Tuo's heart, he couldn't help but sigh very much, these hateful Tang troops made the Qing Empire so dilapidated, it is said that the entire Qing Empire should regard it as a mortal enemy, but now, that Dolgon made a mistake, Ao Bai and Yang Shan, actually led more than 3,000 Manchurian elite cavalry to defect to the Qing Dynasty, and went to defect to the Tang Army, the sworn enemy of the Qing Dynasty, which is really a wonderful irony.

Helpless and rebellious, relatives rebelled, could it be that endless infighting and strife were the fate of the Qing Dynasty......

Along the way, Shuotuo's heart suddenly felt full of sadness.

It's a pity, a hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff, but I am a Qing Dynasty, if it weren't for such cannibalism, suicide and self-destruction, and their own disputes are constantly infighting, how could the Tang Army have the opportunity to take advantage of the weakness and divide and disintegrate the Qing Dynasty, and how could this absurd thing that the elite forces of the Qing Dynasty would turn around and take refuge with the mortal enemy!

At this time, seeing a large number of chasing soldiers from a distance, Ao Bai and Yang Shanbu's soldiers and horses were very flustered for a while. They didn't have time to eat, so they hurriedly continued to flee to the southeast, and the group of men and horses hurriedly crossed the Fuzhou River and landed at the boundary of Fuxian County. When you don't have a long line, you can see the north gate of Fuxian County in the distance.

Over the years, the Fuzhou area has been attacked twice by the Tang army, and the Tang army has been brutal and ruthless, slaughtering the city and plundering the land each time, mercilessly, making the local area ruined, and the economy and life are completely destroyed. Until now, the entire Fuzhou area is still sparsely populated, barren and barren, and even Fuzhou City, as the state capital, is dilapidated and desolate, not to mention this small county seat of Fuxian.

This is far away in the county seat of Fuxian in front of Ao Bai and Yang Shan, on the decaying city wall, the vaguely repairable wounds are very obvious, the soldiers on the city wall are scarce, the flag is crooked, and there are few pedestrians coming and going at the city gate.

"General Aobai, now that the chasing army is approaching, our army is so tired that we really can't walk and fight anymore. What should be the current plan? Yang Shan's voice was eager and flustered.

"Hmph, do you need to ask? The current plan is to use the whole army with their lives, take this defenseless Fuzhou county as soon as possible, and use this place as a temporary stronghold of our army. ”

Ao Bai squinted his eyes slightly, and he said hatefully: "I hate that I am almost at the border of Jinzhou, but I was caught up by Dolgon's soldiers and horses, and it is also his mother's luck." Now I only hope that the sentinels who went to report to the Tang army in advance should have arrived in Lushun, so that the Tang troops stationed there should be ready to meet us. ”

After Ao Bai finished speaking, he said to the two soldiers who were close to him: "You two quit your hard work, immediately change to a horse with good foot strength, one person and two horses, and go all out to master Lushun City." We must report to the Tang army defending the city as soon as possible, we are now trapped in the land of Fuxian, and ask them to come to the rescue quickly! ”

"Hey, the slave has to be ordered!"

After the two sturdy sentry horsemen galloped away, Ao Bai raised the command flag in his hand and gave the order to march to Fuxian.

He ordered that the army, which had just completed the crossing of the river with the whole army, should not rest for a moment, but should take advantage of the fact that the Qing army defending the city was not yet defenseless to launch an all-out attack on the north gate of Fuxian.

Three thousand Manchurian elite horsemen, trying their best to attack, countless horses' hooves beat the earth, like the roar of ten thousand drums, the momentum is very fierce.

At the head of Fuxian County, those soldiers who were originally lazily guarding the city, and in front of them, they were all armed and running towards the north gate of Fuxian County, all of them with shocked faces and frightened.

Damn, where did this elite cavalry come from?

They intuitively felt that the cavalry of the Qing army, which was pressed by the black and oppressed and galloped quickly in a unified formation, was obviously ill-intentioned, and it would be too dangerous to let them into the city easily.

Therefore, for the defenders, the safest and safest way to do now is to quickly pull up the drawbridge and take precautions to prevent them from entering the city.

"Quick, pull up the drawbridge! Don't let them pass. ”

"Quick, go and inform the county magistrate and tell him that there is a large force of cavalry with unknown origin and ill intentions, and they have arrived outside the North Gate!"

"Quick, organize the reserves in the city and the people to go to the city, and you must guard the city wall!"

……

The Qing army at the head of the city hurriedly began to organize the defense, and many soldiers twisted the iron chains together and struggled to pull up the suspension bridge, which was made of thick birch wood, and was slowly pulled up by them little by little.

At this time, the cavalry formation of Ao Bai was like a hurricane that rose from the ground, and quickly rushed to the city.

Seeing that the Qing army at the head of the city was hurriedly pulling up the suspension bridge, a sneer appeared on Aobai's face.

Without saying a word, he quickly took off the bow and arrow on his back, looked at the person who looked like a small leader above, drew his bow like a full moon, and shot away.

At the same time, the cavalry next to him also stretched out their bows and arrows, aiming at the target and shooting hard.

"Whoosh ......"

Sharp arrows shot from under the city, instantly forming a fierce rain of arrows, each arrow seemed to have eyes, and the guards at the head of the city who were pulling the winch forcefully shot into hedgehogs in an instant.

The city was screaming, and the Qing troops, who were killed or wounded, rolled to the ground. The drawbridge, which had been halfway pulled, lost its pulling force, and with a loud bang of the hinges, it slammed back into the moat, raising a large cloud of dust.

As soon as the drawbridge landed, Ao bowed to the first soldier, galloped on horseback, and single-handedly, like a meteor catching the moon, instantly rushed into the city gate that was about to be closed with almost one body left.

As a battle-hardened general, his ability to capture fighters is naturally first-class.

At this time, he was like a vicious wolf that broke into the flock, unscrupulously killing, slashing and killing, and the Qing troops on both sides of the city gate screamed and fell to the ground.

After the city gate was opened, a large number of Manchurian elite horses, like a surging tide, poured into the north gate of the small Fuxian County.

The head of the city and the Qing army in the city were like a swarm of headless flies, fleeing in all directions, and many people fell to their knees and begged to surrender.

At this moment, in the distance in the land of the West Gate, suddenly there was a noisy noise, and Ao Bai saw from a distance that an official in a low-level official uniform was fleeing from the West Gate in a hurry surrounded by a group of entourage.

He knew that this official should be the county magistrate in the city. This guy, when he saw the rebellious army entering the city, it was estimated that it was difficult to protect Fuxian, so he simply fled.

"Hmph, this guy with oil on the soles of his feet is running away very quickly!" Ao Bai sneered, his face full of unwillingness.

"General, do you want to send troops to chase and kill?" Yang Shan, who had caught up, asked hurriedly.

Ao Bai shook his head: "No need, such a little person, just run away, and it's very tight." You go and arrange the defense of the city now, and you must complete the entire defense of the city before the arrival of the pursuers. ”

"Huh!"

When Shuotuo and others crossed the Fuzhou River with great difficulty and trekked hard to pursue to the city of Fuzhou, the county seat of Fuxian occupied by Ao Bai and Yang Shan had already done a good job of garrisoning. A large number of cavalry abandoned their horses and became the defenders of the city, and countless shiny heavy bows, squeaking all over the strings, like a full moon, aimed at the Shuotuo troops and horses that were approaching closer and closer outside the city.

Seeing that the county seat of Fuxian County had been occupied by Aobai, Shuotuo, who was a stone's throw away from the city, had a blue face and reluctantly stopped his troops.

At this time, the county magistrate who escaped from the city came to Shuotuo with his entourage with a frightened face, and then knelt down, trembling all over, and gave Shuotuo a brief explanation of how Ao Bai and others suddenly attacked and seized the county seat of Fuxian in one fell swoop.

Shuoto sat upright and didn't move, his face was so gloomy that it could almost drip water.

Seeing that he was silent, the county magistrate thought that he had not spoken in detail enough, and after he babbled again, he was stopped by Shuoto's irritable wave of his hand.

"Needless to say, you can step aside." Shuo Tuo replied expressionlessly: "Although you have the responsibility of losing your land, but in such an emergency, you have not joined the rebels, and you are still sober-minded and have lost your integrity. Just wait for our army to take back the county, and then let you retake the county government. ”

"Thank you, master! Thank you, master! The minions wish the master a victorious start and destroy the traitors in one fell swoop! Hearing Shuoto's words, the county magistrate looked relieved, and he hurriedly complimented him a few words, and then quickly retreated.

After the county order retreated, Shuotuo repeatedly looked at the already heavily guarded Fuxian county seat, and sighed unconsciously for a long time.

At this time when he was about to be caught up by our army, he knew that he would stop when he urgently recaptured a county town, but he was now passive, and he could only do nothing under the city.

So, what exactly does reality do?

Shuo Tuo frowned, and decided to go and talk to Ao Bai first.

Of course, at the same time, he ordered his tens of thousands of soldiers to divide into four divisions and quickly split up and block out of the four city gates to prevent Ao Bai and others from escaping.

After the whole army had completed the siege, Shuo Tuo rode forward, and when he came to the north gate, he shouted loudly at the head of the city: "Worship! Come out, this king has something to say. ”

He saw that the defenders at the head of the city were crowded for a while, and soon, a strong general in golden armor was surrounded by several guards and came to the head of the city.

"Oh, it turned out to be you." Ao Bai looked teasing and disdainful: "Why, is it Dolgon, who can't find a suitable person first, so he sent you to pursue our army?" ”
