"Five cavalry, ten horses." Yang Zhengping, who was lying on the wall and observing outside, shouted at the courtyard, and as soon as the words fell, a feather arrow flew past his scalp, so frightened that Yang Zhengping slid down the courtyard wall with a "poof".

"The thief is full of dogs, and she shoots too accurately!" Yang Zhengping said scoldingly.

There are only five Manchu cavalry, the number is not too much, Chen Yue is a little relieved, but he knows that although the number of Qing soldiers is small, but they can be sent as sentry scouts, they must be one in a hundred warriors, although their own number is ten times that of them, there is not even a glimmer of hope to win against them. Moreover, the Qing soldiers were all cavalry with one man and two horses, and the arrows were shot very accurately, if they had met in the wilderness, their fifty people would have been defeated and fled, and more than half of them were killed and wounded, instead of only six dead now.

There is no hope of winning them, and now they can only rely on this courtyard and rely on the four walls to hold on, hoping that the Qing soldiers will have no choice but to retreat, but can the courtyard wall that is only one person high stop the Qing soldiers? Chen Yue sadly found that he couldn't find the slightest way to win. Among the nearly fifty people on his side, only himself and Yang Zhengping are not bad at fighting, and the others are some children who have not yet reached adulthood, and they have not even grown their strength, let alone combat skills. If you train for a year and a half, you can barely pull into the battlefield and rely on the array to cooperate in the battle, but now the training is less than a month, and letting them go to the battlefield is equivalent to death......

"They're going to bang on the courtyard gate!" Just as Chen Yue was nervously thinking about countermeasures, Chen Ping, who had been observing the enemy situation outside through the crack in the door, shouted.

"Qing Bing's bow and arrow are too powerful, let's hide in the house!" Chen Mo, the little flag officer, suggested.

"No, wouldn't hiding in the house let people catch turtles in the urn? The Qing soldiers only need to set fires, and none of us can escape with our lives. Before Chen Yue could answer, a firecracker named Li Yi suddenly said.

Chen Yue couldn't help but glance at him in surprise, he could still keep a cool head at the critical moment, this Li Yi was not simple.

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Yue gave a resolute order.

"The big guy threw all the bricks, stones, and timber around him into the courtyard, and then lined up under the courtyard wall on the east side." There are two most terrifying points of the Qing soldiers, one is the speed of the cavalry, and the other is the accuracy of the bow and arrow. The courtyard was covered with bricks and stones, which prevented the horses from galloping freely, which slowed down their speed. Everyone was arrayed under the wall of the east courtyard, but they stood on the right side behind the entrance door, which was equivalent to standing in the dead corner on the right side of the archer, which would make it inconvenient for the Qing soldiers on the horses to shoot arrows, of course, if everyone would shoot the bow left and right, then such a position would have no effect. However, there are too few marksmen who can shoot the bow left and right after all, and Chen Yue doesn't believe that he will be unlucky to meet one.

After more than half a month of training, the family members have become accustomed to obeying Chen Yue's orders, as soon as Chen Yue's voice fell, the big guy immediately took action, everyone picked up the bricks and stones around them and threw them into the courtyard, and suddenly the flat yard was full of bricks, stones and wood, pots and spoons, and a few tables and chairs, and many obstacles were immediately formed in the empty courtyard.

"The pikemen raise their shields in front, and the gunners begin to reload their gunpowder!" With Chen Yue's order, more than a dozen firecrackers immediately put down the bird guns behind them, took out the paper tube projectile from their pockets, and began to load nervously, but the nervousness and fear made most of them move deformed, and their trembling hands couldn't aim the biting paper tube at the vertical barrel......

"Don't be afraid, the Qing soldiers are also two shoulders and one head, it's not a big deal, everyone follow the steps I taught in the morning to load." Chen Yue was loading the firearm in his hand while encouraging everyone. His words calmed some of the people who were able to point the paper tube at the muzzle of the gun.

Just as everyone was nervously loading, there was a loud bang, and a thick tree trunk smashed through the courtyard gate and flew into the courtyard. Five Manchu cavalry urged the war horse to step into the courtyard, led by a fierce knight wearing white armor and a red feather on his head, which was the Manchu Qing Dynasty's white flag and white armor soldier Mandehai.

Man Dehai was ordered to the northwest sentinel to investigate, mainly to find out if there were any Ming reinforcements from Datong Xuanfu, and when they crossed between Beijing and Gongbei City, no Ming army dared to go out of the city to intercept. The successive victories of the Ming army made the Qing soldiers have a great advantage in their hearts, even if there are only a few horses cruising in the heart of the Ming Dynasty, Man Dehai is still not afraid at all, in his opinion, even if there are thousands of Ming troops to intercept, he can calmly retreat with his crotch war horse.

Along the official road of the Yongding River to the west, passing by this small bay, Man Dehai saw from a distance that there was cooking smoke rising in the river bay, and there must be people in the place where there was cooking smoke, of course, he had to go into the village to investigate, and by the way, kill a few people to grab something to eat.

When he approached the village with his cavalry, he saw a figure shaking in the woods outside the village, and five Qing soldiers drew their bows and arrows and shot them, and those people fled with screams, leaving only a few corpses behind.

Man Dehai urged the war horse to approach and check on the Ming people who were shot to death, judging from the dress of the corpse and the weapons in their hands, these people should be Zhuang Ding in the village. The regular Ming army is still not afraid, let alone these Zhuang Ding who run away from garbage as soon as they dozen.

At that moment, he rushed into the village with his subordinates, and saw the strong men fleeing into a large courtyard, and then closed the courtyard gate.

There must be oil and water in the yard! Man Dehai came to this conclusion without thinking, because only a wealthy family could afford to raise so many Zhuang Ding. Get rich!

Rush in, kill all the men inside, and snatch all the wealth and women! With Man Dehai's order, his four cavalry found a tree trunk, tied it with a rope, and the four people hoisted the trunk with a rope, and together urged the war horse to gallop towards the courtyard gate, and when they were about to reach the courtyard gate, they threw the tree trunk in their hands, and the huge inertia made the trunk crash open the courtyard gate and fly into the courtyard.

As soon as the courtyard door opened, Man Dehai urged the war horse to take the lead and rushed into the courtyard, and then looked at the mess in the courtyard with a stunned face.

"Pap", "Papa", at this moment, scattered firecrackers sounded one after another, Man Dehai turned his head to look, and saw two rows of Zhuang Ding standing under the courtyard wall on the east side, and the last row of Zhuang Ding held a pole of firecrackers in his hands, and the green smoke was flowing on the mouth of the firecracker.

"Bastard, I haven't given the order to shoot yet!" Chen Yue scolded angrily, and before he could order a salvo, he didn't know which bastard pulled the trigger, and one person fired, and the other family members followed suit. Only half of the people had loaded the gunpowder projectiles, and the scattered fire did not hit a single shot. Looking at the Manchu cavalry in the courtyard unharmed, Chen Yue only hated the root of his teeth.

"Hahaha, stupid Akito!" Looking at the dozens of rabble in the courtyard, Man Dehai couldn't help laughing.
