The footsteps from Fengyang Mansion to Chuzhou and Luzhou Mansion are almost the same, and the Houtu Camp got the news a little late, but it also quickly caught up. The Shuizi battalion stationed in Datongshan was even closer, and the Huozi battalion dragged Wakda in Huai'an, Zhu Dadian did not dare to slack off, and led his troops to support him quickly.

Yan Yingyuan saw the wolf smoke in front of him from afar, and his heart was even more nervous, he already knew the news of Hou Xuanyan's northern expedition across the river, this surprise was not trivial.

If the Duke of Yue Guo does not know the details and rashly marches north to meet the army of Jierharang, it will be a big deal. As long as Hou Xuanyan dies, no one can restrain the few generals under him, and when the time comes, they will fight separately and return to the dark age of warlord division in the Hongguang period, and they will definitely be broken by the Qing soldiers one by one. Because although Yue Guogong is now in the limelight and strong soldiers, this group centered on Hou Xuanyan does not have a strong No. 2 person.

Thinking of this, Yan Yingyuan broke out in a cold sweat, threw a whip on the horse's buttocks, and said in a loud voice: "Zhou Wenwu, you leave the people in the headquarters to collect their baggage, and the others lose all their bags and march with me at full speed." ”

Zhu Dadian is not much worse, there are too many artillery in the Shuizi battalion, and there are basically no cavalry, even if he advances with all his strength, he still feels that he is much slower.

Zhu Dadian is close to the age of sixties, although he is well-maintained and his physical strength is okay, but he can't bear to run for a long distance like this.

Wu Yi, the deputy commander of the Shuizi Battalion, rushed to his side, frowned and said: "Guogong crossed the river early this morning, and most of them have already met the main force of Jierharang at this time, even if we break our legs, we may not be able to catch up." ”

Zhu Dadian wiped the sweat from his forehead, his throat was dry, and he gritted his teeth and said: "If you can arrive a moment early, you can see that the prince is safe, and it is worth breaking 100,000 legs." ”

Outside Jiangpu City, Hou Xuanyan expected that the enemy's army was coming, and occupied the high ground on the outskirts of the city early. The trees were abundant, and the shade was just right for shade, and the soldiers were ready to work on the gentle high ground with a few simple fortifications.

This hillside is located on the left side of Gangpo Fortress, some distance away from the battlefield, but the whole army has to retreat to reach it. Since you know that the enemy is coming, you will naturally have to fight an ambush, and even if the effect is not good, you can avoid casualties. Hou Xuanyan ordered the Northern Expeditionary Army to hide in the woods and hide here.

The breeze in the forest greatly relieved the unbearable heat brought by the scorching heat, and Hou Xuanyan was afraid that his subordinates would relax, so he set an example and did not take off his armor. But his thighs hurt a little because he had been riding for too long, so he found a big tree and squatted on the ground to rest against the tree.

Although Hou Xuanyan had intelligence, he knew that it was Zilharang who came and brought a lot of Qing soldiers, but he did not get specific information. He leaned against the tree for a long time, secretly put his hand into the crotch of his pants, and the inside of his big crotch was already a little bruised and painful after riding a horse for too long, Hou Xuanyan rubbed it slowly, and occasionally let out a low cry of "uh-huh" in pain.

Hu Bawan was embarrassed in his heart, goosebumps rose all over his body, and in order to protect the reputation of the marshal, he had to pretend not to see it, and loudly argued with several of his own soldiers and brothers to help the marshal cover up his voice.

Hou Xuanyan was disturbed by his voice, and when he looked up, he saw that the Northern Expeditionary Army was talking and laughing, and an easy victory made them a little slack. The big war is coming, such comfort is dead, Hou Xuanyan was furious, stood up and kicked Hu Bawan, this guy with thick skin and thick flesh did not move, scratched his head and looked back to see that it was the handsome man who kicked him, and he staggered and was about to fall. Hu Bawan, who was single-minded, immediately pounced and made a move, flattening the sand and falling geese to the ground.

"What's the gossip, is this the time for small talk? Cheer up Lao Tzu, the Qing army will arrive soon, it doesn't matter if you die, who will raise the old lady in the family? ”

Hu Bawan's kindness was not reciprocated, he was kicked inexplicably, and just after he reacted, he fell to the ground with a thud, and he heard Hou Xuanyan's roar, and a carp stood up and shouted loudly: "Have you heard it, all cheer up, fighting is not a child's play, and you will suffer a big loss if you underestimate the enemy." ”

Only then did the Northern Expeditionary Army put away their ease, clenched their respective weapons, and waited for the arrival of the Qing soldiers.

The Qing soldiers marching rapidly in the distance, all sweating profusely, now is the time when the sun is shining, Yingtianfu in July is one of the hottest cities in the world. The Qing soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty are okay, and the Qing soldiers of the Eight Banners who came in from the bitter cold outside the Guan, where have they suffered such high temperatures, there are not a few who have fainted. But Zilharang was unmoved, and kept urging the wrong order to speed up the march.

Jierharang really moved his murderous intent this time, and the one at the front was his own blue flag, and put the Han Eight Banner, which was slightly inferior in combat power, in the back, so as not to delay the fighter and let Hou Xuanyan go. Killing one person can decide the whole battle, so it is worth the cost, Zilharang was a teenager who fought with Nurhachi, he was an excellent general, he knew this. Shoot the man before the horse. Capture the thief and capture the king first. Now the "king" of the Ming Dynasty took the initiative to attack and gave himself a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and the fate of the whole clan that had been dormant outside the pass for so many years depended on his own battle.

Finally, Jiangpu City was in front of them, and they were all soaked with blue flags, and the soldiers were overjoyed, and the scorching heat was far more terrible to them than fighting. These people are just begging for a battle at the moment, so that after the fight, they can find a place to cool off from the heat.

The people who rushed to the front were all veterans with blue flags, and they were called horse armors and horses. When the ordinary bannermen of Manchuria reach adulthood, they will enlist in the army and become a horseman, and they will be under the command of the leader. The leader is called Ah Gui, who was born with a short body, but is extremely strong. Several men slowed down, grabbed the reins, and slowly rode forward.

Ah Gui glanced around, turned back in Manchu and said, "Jiangpu City has arrived, why haven't you seen any trace of the Han people." ”

"Listen to Zuo Ling's words, just keep going, I really hope to kill the Han people as soon as possible, and find a deeper pool to wash. In this kind of weather, the Han people here can survive. ”

Ah Gui smiled: "What do you know, let the Han people here go to our gates, and they can't stand the cold." Last year, we also called here, and Prince Ying took us back to escape the summer. I don't know what's going on this year, but we all know in the mountains that hunting is to pick a time, isn't this kind of day out to find guilt. ”

"Speaking of following Prince Ying last year and hitting here, although the Han men here are the same as the slaughtered pigs, the women are really good. The white skin and flesh are grabbed as soon as they are grabbed on cotton, and they look good. Look at the women here, and then look at our people, they are all like wild boars. ”

Speaking of this, several horsemen licked their lips together, not knowing what the past had come to mind.

A few Eight Banner horsemen could not find any trace of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and they chatted here, but the Northern Expeditionary Army could see clearly in the woods in the distance. Although separated by half of the city wall, the Qing army is still too dazzling. All the soldiers held their breath and knew that Guogong's words were right. The Qing soldiers who came were pressed in black, and it looked like an endless wave of water rolling out of the horizon, surging towards them.

Hou Xuanyan looked at the Qing soldiers under the mountain,
