Chapter Twenty-Four: There Are Spies
But he didn't wait for the scout to return, waiting for the smoke and dust to roll, the neighing of war horses, one, five, ten, more and more, all yellow armor of Manchu cavalry, rushing towards them in an instant.
Roving bandits? Qing Bing!!
The sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, and the torrent of iron horses seemed to be boundless, stirring Wang Jian's heart. He bit the tip of his tongue to force his composure, and hurriedly ordered the convoy to move closer to him.
After a stormy assault by the Qing soldiers, there was a sudden thunderous shout: "Lao Tzu is the leader of the Zhenghuang Banner Protector Army, and Chongzhen Lao'er has not come out quickly to die!! "It's... Bow down! When Wang Jian watched Lu Ding Ji when he was a child, he had a psychological shadow on him. I saw a man in his early thirties, with a strong body, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a high forehead and thick hair. It's not as cute as Santa Claus, and the whole face is hideous and murderous!
It was not Haoge who caught up from the path, presumably Confucius Meng's strategy was still effective, attracting the main force of the two yellow flags. But why would Ao Bai chase down an inconspicuous convoy? Wang Jian really couldn't think of anything wrong, and Ao Bai chased and killed all the way, and concluded that he was Chongzhen.
"Brother Jane, it's Aobai! According to legend, he was the first warrior of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Ma Fei galloped to Wang Jian, looking a little excited, she had long wanted to meet the first warrior of the Manchu Qing Dynasty for a while.
Fortunately, these guards were all veterans of a hundred battles selected by Ma Miao, and they reacted quite quickly, and after hearing Wang Jian's order, they quickly retreated to a narrow area, and surrounded dozens of carriages in a circle, forming a defensive formation with a diameter of half a mile.
At this time, the sound of killing on the trail shook the sky, and the country road that could only accommodate a carriage was not conducive to the impact of large-scale cavalry, and gradually allowed Wang Jian and them to stabilize the situation.
Wang Jian was only frightened by the all-engulfing impact of Ao Bai at first, but he was not so flustered, because he felt that he had a big killer weapon against the cavalry-Chen Yuanyuan.
But just when he was looking left and right to find Chen Yuanyuan's shadow, he found that Chen Yuanyuan had disappeared!! That's right, it's silently gone!
Wang Jian's heart suddenly became half cold, and it was called a nest fire, "What the hell... It's so unrighteous that I don't even give a warning when I run away. ”
There was no time to sulk, at this time Ao Bai abandoned the war horse, held two giant axes, and used brute force to slash and kill, under the wild chopping of the giant axe of Kaishan, the wooden carriage in front of him was instantly cut in half, and several Guan Ning soldiers behind the carriage were all hacked to death by him. Under his onslaught, the position in front of the convoy was about to be broken through by him. As a last resort, Ma Mimei had to lead someone to block it herself.
But after all, Ao Bai had the advantage of cavalry impact and numbers, and with the screams of several Guan Ning soldiers, their formation became smaller and smaller.
"Sister Qi, take the emperor and leave!" Ma Mi observed the situation, with Qi'er's Hongyan battalion of nearly 100 female soldiers, plus her own more than 300 personal soldiers, it was impossible to retreat under the impact of more than 1,000 Qing soldiers, not to mention that there was a master of the realm of kings like Aobai.
Wang Qi'er was a little hesitant and glanced back at Wang Jian.
Wang Jian also knew that the situation was very unfavorable to him, and shouted in a low voice: "Withdraw!" After speaking, he pulled Yao'er into his exclusive carriage.
Guan Ningbing also carved a way for the yellow carriage at the cost of casualties, and Wang Qi'er ran wildly all the way under the escort of nearly 100 Hongyan battalions.
Ran more than 30 miles in one breath, and finally temporarily got rid of Aobai's pursuit, at this time Wang Jian was surrounded by female soldiers of the Hongyan Battalion, there were only more than 100 people, and it was less than 100 miles away from Tianjin Sanwei.
In the evening, Ma Mimei also rushed up with the remnants of Guan Ning's soldiers, and after a big battle, more than 300 veterans of the war suffered nearly half of the casualties, so you can imagine how tragic the battle was. Fortunately, it was only the worship of the realm of kings, and she used the cultivation of the realm of quasi-kings to fight a bloody way in the encirclement, and forcibly led more than 100 people to break through successfully. These soldiers who escaped death looked at Ma Miao's face with admiration, as if she was invincible.
Wang Jian looked at the tired concubine and felt distressed, so she took three steps and two steps forward to pick her up from the horse.
"Brother Jane, don't..." Ma Miao's face was blushing, and she struggled to stand up in Wang Jian's arms.
Wang Jian was stunned for a moment, and found that the soldiers around him looked at them with a strange look, and he smiled with a "haha" in understanding: "My concubine is now a general, and she knows how to pay attention to majesty." He put her down and took her hand into the tent.
However, she didn't have time to rest, so she went to Tianjin Sanwei overnight to contact her two uncles.
Wang Jian also asked everyone to camp and rest on the spot, the soldiers were already exhausted, and they rashly walked at night, I am afraid that it will be easier to expose their whereabouts.
But early the next morning, the sky was bright, and a team of yellow-armored cavalry appeared outside Wang Jian's camp again, but after a while, there were more and more.
"Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, we are surrounded!" Before Wang Jian woke up, Wang Chengen broke into the big tent and hurriedly said.
"What !!" Wang Jian was taken aback!
If it is said that being targeted by Ao Bai before was regarded as a mistake, then this time it is very paradoxical, obviously the other party came prepared, but who betrayed him?
"Is there a mole?"
Wang Jian didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly walked out of the camp, and the soldiers looked at Wang Jian one by one, showing a desperate malaise, thinking that they also thought that this time was more auspicious. Wang Jian looked at the eyes that were eager to survive, and slowly panicked.
"Your Majesty, the imperial concubine went to Tianjin Wei, less than a hundred miles away from here." Wang Chengen whispered in his ear.
Not bad! There is still a glimmer of hope!
He looked at the desperate soldiers and said loudly: "Soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, we! Never say never! Because we can be killed, but we can't be defeated! ”
He breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Since I became an ancestor in the Ming Dynasty, the Son of Heaven has guarded the country for generations, why?" It is to live and die with the soldiers and never abandon each other! Today, if this is the place where we are buried, I, the Son of Heaven, will die with you! ”
Wang Chengen also echoed in a timely manner: "Yes, the Divine Concubine Niangniang went to Tianjin Wei in the starry night yesterday, and she will definitely bring people back to support soon, as long as we hold on, the victory will be ours!" ”
The soldiers, who were already desperate, first heard Wang Jian say that they intended to die with them, and then reinforcements arrived, and suddenly their morale began to recover, they cheered each other up, and slowly got out of the edge of despair, all of them regarded death as home, and only thought about killing everything in their eyes.
"Ge Laozi, fight, kill one is enough, kill two to earn one!"
"Yes, even if you die, continue to follow the Holy One underground!"
In the heroic words of the soldiers' oath, there was also a discordant voice: "That is, what is there to fear of death, not to mention the emperor's back." ”
When Wang Jian heard this, there were three black lines in his ears, but for the sake of consideration, his morale was finally boosted. He also knew that it was impossible to break through under the pursuit of so many light cavalry, and the only thing he could do was to hold on and wait for his concubine to return.
Fortunately, the place where Wang Jian chose to camp was the mountain stream on the side of the road, so he didn't have to worry about the impact of the cavalry of the two yellow flags from both sides, as long as he held the mountain pass. He hurriedly ordered the convoy to retreat towards the mountain stream behind him, blocked his huge copper-skinned carriage at the mountain pass, and then put the large and small carriages on both sides, and more than 200 soldiers hid behind more than a dozen carriages.
And the Qing soldiers who surrounded them were not in a hurry to attack, but slowly dispersed, under the yellow armor of countless two yellow cavalry, Hauge slowly walked out on a tall horse in blue armor, he looked at Wang Jian with a pair of bright eyes, and laughed wildly: "Haha, Chongzhen Lao'er, this time you can't escape!" ”
Wang Jian was shocked in her heart: "It's actually Haoge? He didn't chase Wu Sangui, he came to chase me?! But now is not the time to find out the traitor, he tightly held the embroidered spring knife in his hand, tore off a piece of white cloth, tied it to death, he stood at the front of the team, put the long knife horizontally, took out the momentum of the street fight back then, and shouted: "Lao Tzu is the Ming Dynasty's son of heaven Chongzhen, who is not afraid of death will come up!" ”
Qing soldiers didn't expect the dignified Son of Heaven to be at the forefront, and they all had a trace of fear, the majesty of the Son of Heaven was not something they could contend with, even if it was the Son of Heaven of the enemy country!
Haoge had a gloomy face, and said hatefully: "The whole army listens to the order, whoever takes Chongzhen's head and seals a thousand households!" "There will be brave men under the heavy reward, and the Qing soldiers rushed forward one by one.
Wang Jian cut down the first Qing soldier who rushed forward with a knife, he was dead guard behind the carriage, blood splashed all around, and there were more than ten Qing soldiers who were hacked to death by him. The rest of the men were stopped by the huge wagons and the corpses of their companions, and the attack slowed down. The surrounding Guan Ning soldiers saw that Wang Jian was so brave, and their morale was also high.
But Ao Bai will not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime feat, he rushed up with two mountain-opening giant axes, and knocked out the two Guan Ning soldiers in front of him in just two strokes, you must know that these Guan Ning soldiers are the masters of the realm of Du Wei carefully selected! Ao Bai took advantage of the situation and split again, and it was bound to split the Guan Ning soldier in half. Wang Jian didn't dare to slack off, if he let Ao Bai rush into the car formation, the consequences would be unimaginable, he hurriedly took the lead to meet him, vomited wildly, raised a giant axe that slashed downward, and saved the Guan Ning soldier. He only felt that the tiger mouth of the handle was numb, and his heart was shocked, and Ao Bai had always been known as the first warrior of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, especially the arm strength was amazing, like a giant spirit god. And the embroidered spring knife in Wang Jian's hand was just a mortal product after all, and it couldn't stop his attack, and a big gap appeared.
