thirty-four
At night, the Goat Valley Fort is brightly lit and noisy. No one could sleep that night, and they were all preparing for tomorrow. Countless torches lit up the city, and the patrolmen watched with wide eyes as the movement outside the city.
Coming out of the secret room where Abahai was being held, Yue Xiang's face was quite ugly, and although it was the third time he had fought with her, he still didn't have any advantage.
This woman only now showed her clever and cunning nature, and seemed to be determined that he did not dare to do anything to her, and did not know anything about his questions, or just squeezed toothpaste and asked a little to squeeze out. Yue Xiang really wanted to torture her twice, but with her thin arms and legs, she was afraid of making a mess, so she must know that her identity was a concubine, not an ordinary prisoner. If there are injuries left on the body, it will definitely be difficult to explain when you go back, and you don't know what the chain reaction will happen when the time comes.
Of course, Yue Xiang would not let thousands of lives pay for her impulsiveness in the end, and she didn't want to take any fearless risks at this time. However, it can't be said that there is no gain at all, although squeezing toothpaste does not squeeze out anything new, but it also confirms some of his conjectures from the side.
She admitted that the destination of her trip was Weining Camp, and it was said that there was a former cultist hidden in the tunzi, and that cult was called Baiyang Sect in their Han place, she didn't understand what it meant, in short, this incognito Baiyang cultist seemed to be guarding some secret, and Nurhachi was very interested in the knowledge he had, so he made this trip.
However, she didn't say a word about how Nurhachi got this information, and she herself acquiesced in her knowledge of the White Sun Sect, although she still said that it was the first time she had heard of this religion.
From this, Yue Xiang was even more convinced of his judgment, Nurhachi was definitely coming for Xiao Wan, to be exact, for the legendary Gao Huai Tibetan gold. There is no doubt that such a huge fortune means that in the eyes of this hero, it means that the quality of his own strength will be improved, and it means that the capital of Jianzhou and Ming Court will be greatly improved.
Even if he is an ordinary person, he will be tempted. Who doesn't love money? If you are tempted by yourself, you will not allow others to be tempted?
When Yue Xiang heard about this, he immediately wanted to take this wealth for himself, but he felt that the conditions were not ripe at that time. Second, I felt that no one knew about the secret, so I didn't panic. Now that he knew that in addition to himself and the Red Envelope Society, there were also fierce people like Nurhachi who were paying attention to this matter, and his heart suddenly rose. Quarrel with Nurha, and fight him with his own pounds?
However, the only thing that comforted him a little was that it seemed that Abahai did not get all the information from Nurhachi, and it seemed that she only knew about the existence of the hidden old cultist, and did not know Xiao Wan behind him. I just don't know if Nurhachi also knows as much as she knows, maybe Nurhachi is the one who knows all the truth, but he didn't tell Huang Taiji and Abahai the whole situation.
But he didn't have time to judge how much of Abahai's words were credible now, and even if what she said was true, as long as he let her go back, the truth would still be revealed in front of Nurhachi. If Nurhachi had known as much as he had imagined, he would have known that Xiao Wan was what he was looking for.
But I have to let her go, and I can't go without this.
But what if you go back? His own people have been exhausted, and when he returns to Qinghe City, he is afraid that the use value will be greatly reduced. Besides, Qinghe is not safe now, maybe Nurhachi will immediately gather a large army to attack the city after getting the news. On the other hand, he felt that it would be impossible if he didn't go back to Qinghe, his family property was there, and there were Ma Gong and Dong Mingchuan's family, a group of good brothers who were born and died with him, and these more than a thousand Ming soldiers, could he really leave them?
But thinking about myself and thinking about it far, I didn't even think about whether I could leave smoothly this time, and I actually thought about the future.
When I came to the dormitory, I thought about whether to tell Xiaowan the truth. This incident happened to be an opportunity, but after thinking about it, I finally felt that there were still many people, so it was better to go back home and ask in detail.
"We're going to leave when we get to tomorrow morning, outside the city is the horse team of the Jianzhou Tartars, and those people kill people without blinking. When the time comes, you will follow me and listen to my commands, do you know? Yue Xiang took Xiao Wan's hand and told him a thousand times. Xiao Wan's eyes were red, her voice was choked, and she nodded yes. Yue Xiang thought she was scared, and comforted her repeatedly. Xiao Wan shook her head and said that she was not afraid.
Asked if she was moved, Yue Xiang never mentioned once whether those horse thieves had done wrong to her and whether she had lost her life to those people's words. It must be known that in this era, the most important name of the Han woman, a woman and a man other than her husband say a word is a manifestation of disobedience to women's morals, let alone with other men for a period of time. And Xiao Wan has been captured by these horse thieves for so long, no one knows what happened in between. If Yue Xiang doubted her, she couldn't tell her clearly.
But Yue Xiang didn't ask a word, and Xiao Wan felt that this not only showed Yue Xiang's tolerance and trust in her, but also showed his weight in his heart. It just made her feel like she couldn't repay her bones, and it was really the blessing of eight lifetimes of doing good deeds and accumulating virtue to make herself marry such a good man.
After listening to Xiaowan's courageous confession, Yue Xiang didn't know what to say. It's not that he didn't think about it, but he thought about it and forgot to say it for a while. He thinks that it is a bit inappropriate to bring up this matter now, and besides, with his modern concept, he does not think that a woman's chastity is so important, and he always puts saving people first.
However, Xiao Wan, a woman of this era, took the initiative to open her mouth to show him her innocence, and Yue Xiang no longer doubted anything. There are many things that can't be dealt with now, where is there time to take care of such small things. Anyway, those horse thieves have been killed by him, even if someone inside has insulted Xiaowan, they have already died under the knife, and it is really not worth worrying about this matter. He gently hugged Xiaowan and whispered to comfort her, and suddenly his body stiffened, and a flash of inspiration flashed, thinking of another woman.
As the concubine of the Jin Kingdom, Abahai fell to the enemy and was captured in the city, does she have such concerns in her heart? The fate of a woman who became a captive in this era is basically the same, she looks so charming and moving, which men will let her go? Moreover, when she performed soul dementorship, she even took the initiative to seduce Yue Xiang with her body.
If such a scandal spreads, can her position as the concubine be kept? No matter how generous Nurhachi is, he will not allow a woman who has brought a green hat to him to continue to stay in the position of concubine.
If you want to cover this matter, you can only kill all the insiders, but Huang Taiji's gang and her own group are all insiders, how did she kill thousands of people? Besides, it's not that easy to destroy. Then the other way is to compromise, which is doable. Huang Taiji's guards are not conducive to a major crime, but she is no better there, and the two sides can only help each other to cover up. If this battle had not been fought, there would have been no such thing as being captured and not being captured.
Since he had not been captured, Abahai naturally had no chance to meet Xiao Wan. And the matter of the Weining camp can be pushed to the group of horse thieves of suspicious origin, and it seems that they still need to talk to that woman again......
When he was a child, the moonlight was bright.
More than 900 horses with white flags quietly entered the attack position from all directions, all the horses' hooves were covered with cloth, and the noise was kept to a minimum.
By the moonlight, it can be seen that this is a small hidden valley in the middle of the mountains, which has a lot of transportation conditions as a camp, and there is a small stream nearby as a water source. Out of the mountain and along the Shahe River to the west, you can go directly to Fengjibao, Baitapu line, and even reach the vicinity of Shenyang; To the east is Goat Yu Fort, to the north along the tributaries of the Hunhe River can reach Fushun, to the south is Weining Ying, the transportation is convenient, you can toss wherever you want.
The construction of the entire camp is really too Jurchen-style, and it is completely the layout of a field camp.
There were forty-three wooden fences, logged huts, and tents, but probably because of the long success, the guards were relatively lax, and the high ground on both sides of the camp was only sent to send sentinels, which had now been killed silently, and their stables were unmanned.
Horses are the lifeblood of the Jurchens, and even horses are not well guarded, so it is conceivable what will happen. Presumably, they have been fighting with the incompetent Ming army for a long time, and over time they have developed this habit of underestimating the enemy. I never thought that one day I would compete with an opponent who was also the Eight Banners Army.
Huang Taiji rode his horse to the top of the slope and looked at the camp at his feet.
He really underestimated his fifth brother Mangergutai, who usually only knows how to fight and kill, and seems to be a rough and reckless man. This person doesn't like to read on weekdays, only loves to practice martial arts, and especially admires Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
The number of positive blue flag bulls he led was the second to last among the forces of the Eight Banners, only more than the white flag. But the ferocity and brutality of the bannerman, the madness of the battle is definitely the crown of the Eight Banners, the rape, burning, killing and looting of the previous battles are indispensable to him, he also likes to kill prisoners of war and the old and weak women and children, if the number of people killed by his own hands, it is estimated that no one in the Eight Banners can compare to him.
Although the various divisions of the Eight Banners are all Jurchen cavalry, they have different fighting styles because of the different main generals. The two yellow flags of Nurhachi's personal general have the largest number of people, and the team pulls out a kind of domineering spirit that overwhelms the mountains and the sea and steps on everything, giving people a feeling of destroying mountains and forests and forests. Dai Shan's two red flags spread to the flames of the prairie in all directions, and he especially likes to flank and sneak up on the flanks to stir up the chaos, and when fighting, it seems to be everywhere in all directions. And Huang Taiji's white flag pressed towards the top of the glacial collapse snow mountain, directly engulfing the enemy. Manguthai's Blue Banner is known as the Mad Dog style of play, and it completely overwhelms the enemy with its own crazy bloodlust.
Huang Taiji only heard Yue Xiang's crazy death when the horse thieves fought like he described, as well as the cruel deaths of those tun people, and guessed in his heart that ** Buli Ten was the masterpiece of the group of mad dogs in the Zhenglan Banner.
I didn't expect rough people to play tricks to make it even more unguardable. He calculated Abahai, Huang Taiji, and Dai Shan all in this time, which can really be described as killing three birds with one stone.
"Fifth brother, eighth brother has been taught today." Huang Taiji said softly in his mouth, and the murderous aura in his eyes became even stronger. "Let the little brother teach the fifth brother's subordinates how brave they are today!" Cang Chang unsheathed his waist knife, and a cold light flashed in the sky under the moonlight. The stables in the camp suddenly erupted with a loud bang, and two huge pillars of fire rose into the sky, and the dark camp suddenly became as bright as day. Then, countless rockets turned into a rain of fire and rained down from the high ground on all sides.
The whole valley has been blown up in the nest, the frightened horses are running wildly with fire on their bodies, and there are figures running around like headless flies, tents and houses are already burning one after another, and the camp of horse thieves has turned into a sea of fire, and it is a complete mess.
The long knife pointed obliquely, and only one word came out between Huang Taiji's teeth.
"Kill!"
