Chapter 385: A dilemma

Looking at the cavalry of the Ming and Qing armies in front of them, wearing golden gilt lacquer armor, wearing a black tasseled steel helmet with a high needle tip, and wearing a bright red woven silk cloak, Samushka, the deputy chief of the Manchurian cavalry in Xingzhong Town of the Tang Army, had an angular face, an expression as deep as iron, and a pair of sharp triangular eyes, but there was a bloodthirsty and cruel gaze like a wild wolf. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's just that, at the same time, in his heart, it is full of emotion.

Two years ago, on Ocean Island, Samushka attacked and killed his own commander, and the Qing army's household department inherited Mafuta, and used Mafuta's bloody head to present a letter of surrender to Li Xiao, in exchange for the opportunity for himself and his subordinates to surrender and survive. Then, because of his merits, he became a general in Li Xiaojun's cavalry.

In the past two years, Samushka and the original surrender of the Manchurian soldiers, has already completed the process of sinicization, now he can speak a decent Chinese, while wearing Han clothes, Han hair, behavior and appearance has been no different from an ordinary Han people, in the past two years, he has accepted a wife and a concubine two Han women, and gave birth to a daughter, the original Qing army general, now has completely regarded himself as a member of the Han people.

It's just that after staying in the Don army for so long, Samushka really only fought one battle.

That is, some time ago, when I went to Zhuozhou City to rescue Lu Xiangsheng's department, the Manchurian cavalry commander of Xingzhong Town participated in a large-scale battle for the first time.

What made Samushka sigh was that he did not expect that he joined the Tang Army, and this first battle was against the Manchurian cavalry led by Hauge, but he fought to the death with his previous clansmen.

And in this huge cavalry battle, two elite Manchurian cavalry with the same bloodline fought desperately, both wanting to use each other's heads to pave a bloody promotion path for themselves.

In this battle, Samushka showed great courage, like a tiger out of the mountains, he killed a full fifteen Qing cavalry alone. With the blood and lives of the original compatriots, he paved a broad road to promotion, and fully expressed his reliability and loyalty to Li Xiao, the Duke of Tang Guo.

Such a general who can be ruthless to his past compatriots and can be loyal to himself, Li Xiao naturally has a blue eye for him, and after this battle, Samushka was rewarded for his military exploits and was promoted to the deputy chief of the Manchurian cavalry in Xingzhong Town.

Since then, Samushka has been more heavily used, and has the power to lead the army alone within a certain range.

A few days ago, Li Xiao led reinforcements and horses, set off from Dengzhou, and went straight to Jiyang. The cavalry units of the Tang army marched forward in advance, and first arrived at Jiyang, where Wu Sangui was stationed.

Next, according to Li Xiao's original arrangement, all the cavalry patrolled throughout the central part of Luzhong to find out the route of the Qing army's attack, and to find out the situation for the main force of the Tang army later.

Samushka, on the other hand, was sent with a thousand Manchurian cavalry to explore the area from Jiyang to Linyi.

What Samushka didn't expect was that he was not far from the north of Linyi County, and he happened to encounter the cavalry of the Qing army and the cavalry of the Ming army, fighting desperately outside the east gate of Linyi County.

Samushka quickly thought that if he won this battle, he would not only be able to get more silver rewards for white flowers and more fiefdoms in Taiwan, but of course, he would be able to marry more Han women。。。。。。

"Brothers, kill the past and defeat this Qing army in one fell swoop! This lot of fame and white money can be waiting for us to get it in front! The lord general Samushka shouted with his sword, and the first horse rushed away.

A thousand Manchurian cavalry of the Tang Army, all of them suddenly let out a loud roar like a beast, followed their own commander, and rushed to the Qing cavalry outside the east gate of Linyi County.

And when he saw the huge and wide banner of the word "Tang" waving in the wind, Zu Kuan, who had been killed all over in blood, suddenly widened his eyes, and then his face was full of joy, and he shouted loudly: "It's the Tang Army!" It's Lord Li's cavalry coming! Oh my God, our army is finally saved! ”

The main general, Cao Bianjiao, saw that it was the arrival of the Tang army, and his heart was also extremely happy, and he shouted: "Brothers! Master Li sent Tang Jun to rescue us. We've won this battle! If you work hard, you must completely wipe out this Qing cavalry! ”

Among the Ming army, there was a huge cheer in unison, and the faces of each soldier were full of excitement and high spirits, and the originally low morale suddenly cheered up a lot.

Almost instantly, Tang Jun's Manchurian cavalry was already roaring, like a fierce black whirlwind, with overwhelming momentum, surging forward, these Tang Army Manchurian cavalry, to the former compatriots, has long had no mercy, put into a semi-circular battle formation, like a huge hammer, fiercely hit behind the Qing army formation, together with the Ming army in front, front and back, the entire battlefield situation, suddenly quickly reversed.

Seeing that a large number of Tang cavalry came to help, the Qing army commander Anping Beledudu in the distance did not realize that his face changed greatly.

What's going on?

Didn't the Tang army return to Dengzhou? How did it suddenly appear here?

Du Du didn't have time to think about this problem, seeing that his own Qing cavalry was caught in the joint attack of the Ming army and the Tang army, and the defeat had been revealed, he couldn't hold it anymore, and shouted angrily: "Pass my order, quickly order the cavalry to retreat to this formation, and then attack together with the whole army, and be sure to destroy this Tang cavalry and those Ming cavalry!" ”

"Huh!"

The crisp and piercing sound of gold immediately sounded loudly, and the Qing cavalry, who had no intention of fighting but was only struggling to support, suddenly had no intention of fighting, they left nearly three hundred corpses of their own cavalry, shouting and fleeing, very embarrassed.

Seeing that the main force of the Qing army was approaching, the Tang army did not pursue it and let it escape.

Subsequently, the chief cavalry general of the Tang Army, Samushka, led all the cavalry of the Tang Army, and the two divisions of Cao Bianjiao and Zu Kuan converged in one place.

Although Cao Bianjiao and Zu Kuan had already heard that in the Tang Army, there were surrendered Manchurian cavalry to serve them, but when they saw it with their own eyes today, they felt a lot of emotion in their hearts.

This Lord Li, the Duke of Tang Kingdom, can make these beast-like Tartars transform into Han people who are no different from their own appearance, and can also make them work hard for themselves, his powerful wrists and abilities are truly breathtaking.

After the two sides briefly exchanged names and official positions, Cao Bianjiao said with a grateful face: "Cao Mou thank you for your timely help, if it weren't for your army's timely arrival, our department would have been wiped out!" Such a heavy kindness, and allow Cao to report it again in the future! ”

Samushka waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to say much, and then quickly said to him in Chinese: "General Cao, it is a fluke that our army can come to the rescue in time this time. But I don't know what your army plans to do next? ”

Seeing him asking, Cao Bianjiao immediately said without thinking: "Chief Samushka, our army is outnumbered, and I wanted to go to Jinan, but who knew that there were a large number of Qing troops blocking the road, so I couldn't go to Jinan again." The current plan is to temporarily defend the county seat of Linyi and wait for reinforcements. ”

Samushka sighed, nodded, and sighed: "It's a pity that the main force of our army is still on the way from Dengzhou to Jiyang, otherwise we will definitely send troops to relieve the siege of Linyi and rescue you." Then before our army arrives, you should be on your own, take care. Now that the main force of the Qing army is approaching, you and my second army, don't pass by. ”

Cao Bianjiao bowed his hand to Samushka and said loudly: "Cao Mou thanks the general again for saving his life!" The green mountains do not change, the green water flows forever, and wait for another day, it is not too late for you and me to see each other. ”

Samushka also bowed his hand to him, and without saying much, he hurriedly led his cavalry and galloped north.

When Du Du finally led all the Qing troops to the city of Linyi, all the Ming troops just withdrew from the city, the drawbridge had been pulled up, and the city gate had been closed.

And to the north, the cavalry of the Tang Army, which was galloping back and forth like a whirlwind, had long since disappeared.

Du Du slapped his thigh in extreme annoyance, with a look of reproach.

Damn! The fat to the mouth was lost, and he originally expected to swallow this Ming cavalry in one bite, but he didn't expect that now he was stealing chickens and rice, and he had killed more than 300 cavalrymen in battle, and those hateful Ming troops had all fled into the city, and it was impossible to be wiped out.

What's next?

Do you really want to storm the county seat of Linyi?

In this case, wouldn't it be a violation of Yue Zhen's order?

After all, the task he received was only to protect the left flank from the Ming army, and Yue Zhen never authorized himself to change the battle plan without authorization and turn around to attack a small Linyi county town.

It's just that now these soldiers and horses of the Ming army to aid Jinan have been trapped in the city, if they are not eliminated, and when they withdraw from the siege, will these Ming troops continue to enter and aid Jinan?

What's more, there are also those Tang troops who stand out and are nowhere to be found, and they don't know anything about their real situation, and they don't know how big the strength of this Tang army is, and how much uncertainty it will cause to the Qing army's plan to attack Jinan City.

Du Du was anxious for a while.

In the end, he pondered for a long time before he ordered: "Quickly pass my order, go to the place of Yucheng, report to the general of Yangwu, Yue Zhen, and tell him that the main force of the Ming army that has come to the aid has been trapped by me in the county town of Linyi. In addition, I reported to Yue Zhi again and told him that there was a sudden attack by the cavalry of the Tang Army, and our army did not know the strength and distribution of the clam army. β€œ

"Huh! Minions obey. β€œ

Looking at the sentry who was in a hurry to deliver the message, Du Du looked solemn and let out a long sigh.

Now that he has suffered this mutation, Du Du has no right to decide, so he can only kick the ball back to Yue Yu and let him make a decision.

Subsequently, Du Du ordered loudly: "The whole army is temporarily camped at the gate of Linyi City to prevent the Ming army from escaping, and then arrange it after the general sends the next action order." β€œ

"Huh!"

Seeing that the Qing army slowly retreated and began to camp around the small county town of Linyi, Song Xiyao, the county commander at the head of the city, and the master on the side were all relieved.

"Song County Order, now that the Qing army is only camped in the wilderness, it seems that it will not attack my Linyi County for a while and a half, and we may have a few more days of leisure." The master said with a happy face.

Song Xiyao nodded, but said with a long sigh: "Alas, in the troubled times, human life is like grass, and the people and soldiers in the whole city dare not say what the future holds, and it is good to live a few more days." β€œ

The two sighed for a while, and then walked down the city wall, and after walking not far, they suddenly heard a thunderclap in their ears.

"Enter your mother, you dog thief county order! I couldn't open the city gate just now, so many of our cavalry brothers died in vain, grandma, grandpa is going to cut off your dog's head now, to avenge the brothers who died in battle! β€œ

Hearing this shout, Song Xiyao's face changed greatly, he subconsciously turned his head, but saw Zu Kuan holding a blood-drenched straight sword, holding his sleeve, and walking towards him angrily.

Seeing that Zu Kuan wanted to commit murder in public, Song Xiyao was horrified, he took a few steps back, but he stumbled and sat on the ground.

"General Soldier Zu, the Song County Order does not let your army enter the city, and there are many hardships, it is not deliberately to embarrass your army, and I hope that General Soldier Zu will be lenient and let go of the Song County Order."

Seeing that the situation was not right, the master on the side stepped forward and wanted to persuade Zu Kuan.

"Dog, I want you to get in the way!"

Zu Kuan scolded angrily, flew up with a kick, and kicked the master to roll on the street several times in a row.

The master got up from the ground, his forehead was broken, blood flowed, and the corner of his eye was not known, and it was even more swollen to a blue and black, like a walnut.

Zu Kuan didn't even look at him, and strode towards Song Xiyao, who was trembling on the ground, and the bloody straight sword immediately rested on Song Xiyao's neck.

"Chief Soldier Zu, don't kill me, this county is also a last resort。。。。。。"

"Phew!" Zu Kuan interrupted him viciously, and roared like thunder: "You thief prisoner!" You still have the face to say that you have no choice! If it weren't for your selfish intentions and delaying the opening of the city, how could our army be caught up by the Qing army, how could so many brothers die tragically under the city, and today it is only natural to use your dog's head to pay for the lives of the brothers who died in battle! ”

After Zu Kuan finished speaking, a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes, and with a loud shout, the straight sword was swung high, and he was about to cut down at Song Xiyao's neck.

"Stop!"

At this critical moment, when it was extremely dangerous, behind Zu Kuan, there was a loud shout from Cao Bianjiao.

The straight sword in Zu Kuan's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.

"Chief Soldier Zu, don't make a mistake!"

Cao Bianjiao stepped forward quickly, snatched the straight sword from Zu Kuan's hand, slammed it on the ground, and said coldly: "Now that the military situation is stable and the army's heart is determined, why should General Zu kill this person to relieve his hatred." ”

Zu Kuan was still angry, and he shouted at Cao Bianjiao: "Hmph, if it weren't for this guy's secret selfishness and engaging in this hateful trick, how could you and I lose so many valuable cavalry!" If I don't kill this person, the hatred in my heart will be hard to dissolve! ”

"Enough!"

Seeing Zu Kuan being so stubborn, Cao Bianjiao's face also swelled with anger: "General Zu, as the chief general of the first army, can't you even tell the priority?!" Now that the Qing army is still outside the city, it has surrounded this Linyi county like an iron bucket, and the current situation of our army is still very difficult and unpredictable. The military situation is so critical, why do you have to fight with a county commander like this! If you kill this person, what can you do but make the whole city more and more panicked?! ”

Listening to Cao Bianjiao's stern words, Zu Kuanton was depressed, and finally he slammed his feet, stomped his feet suddenly, and his fingers were so frightened that Song Xiyao, who was paralyzed as mud, hatefully said: "Let's go, then see Cao Zongbing's face, grandpa will leave you a dog's life!" ”

Next, when Cao Bianjiao and Zu Kuan urgently discussed how to deploy Linyi County, Yue Xuan, the general of the Qing army, had already led 40,000 soldiers and horses of the Chinese army, bypassed Yucheng, and went straight to Jinan.

The thousand-year-old city of Jinan, the provincial capital of Shandong, is in danger.
