"The Mantars set fire to Fangshan and escorted the people of the city away!" Hearing this news, Chen Yue was furious, he didn't expect that the Tartars would even set fire to the city, not to mention the looting of property and population!

No, I can't just let Mantar leave easily, I can't just watch tens of thousands of people fall into a sea of misery. Chen Yue can imagine that under this kind of cold and freezing conditions, more than half of the more than 10,000 people in Fangshan can reach Liaodong safely, and I am afraid that most of them will become corpses who died tragically on the side of the road.

Don't enter this era and don't know the cruelty of the Manchu Tartar, the wind and snow of the later generations of the braid drama of Ah Gege you and I are based on the bones of millions of Ming people, the previous entry and robbery made the Beizhili Shandong generation ten rooms and nine empty, mentioning the brutality of the Manchu Tartar, can stop the children's night crying, the people in the north of the Ming Dynasty simply hate the Tartar to the bone, and they are also afraid of the Tartar to the extreme!

When he first came to this world, Chen Yue still had the idea of escaping from the world, always thinking of escaping to Jiangnan and finding a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to spend his life in peace. But when he saw one human tragedy after another, and saw the Mantars galloping across the land of China, slaughtering the Han people like killing chickens and dogs, Chen Yue's thoughts unconsciously changed a lot. Although he still doesn't think that he can change the world, he feels that he has to do something to be worthy of the Han blood flowing in his body, so that he can come to this world in vain!

"Command, all assemble!" Chen Yue resolutely passed down the order, the guards blew the horn of the assembly, and the soldiers who were practicing stopped and began to line up under the leadership of the little flag officer.

"Inspector!"

"Inspector!"

Chen Ping, Li Yi, Chen Mo and several other general flags who led the team came to Chen Yue and saluted with their hands.

Looking at the neat queue in front of him, Chen Yue nodded with satisfaction, after more than a month of training and another tough battle, these soldiers have gradually grown up, and now they can be used.

"My lord, how are we going to fight this battle? If we face the full Tartar cavalry, I'm afraid we will suffer. Although he hated Mantar in his heart, Yang Zhengping was not carried away by hatred, but was very calm.

"It's definitely not okay to be tough, let's do this," Chen Yue asked people to take out a simple map, which drew the terrain of the mountains and rivers around Gyeonggi, and pointed to the map to the people, "The Manchu escorted the tens of thousands of people in Fangshan all the way to the south, and the direction should be to Bazhou, if there are only Manchu cavalry, we can't do anything about them, but now the Manchu Tartars are carrying tens of thousands of people, and they can't walk fast at all."

We only need to take a shortcut, it only takes a day, we can get in front of them, and then choose a place to ambush, and when the Tartars pass by, we will be caught off guard, and we will definitely win! ”

Another ambush? Everyone couldn't help but think of the failed ambush a few days ago, and they couldn't help but smile on their faces.

"The Mantar brigade marches, and will definitely send sentinels to explore the way for the lead, although the ambush may not be successful, but in the end, we can choose the battlefield to occupy favorable terrain." Knowing what everyone was thinking, Chen Yue explained with a smile.

In the past two days, Shan Minglei and others have been ready to go on the expedition, dry food equipment and various materials have been loaded into the cart, and the soldiers also know that they are about to go to fight the Tartars, except that they are still a little nervous, but there is not much fear, and there is no need to mobilize more.

After everything was ready, Chen Yue immediately ordered to set off, and the army left Sicheng and headed east.

The people of Xishan Town flocked to the outside of Sicheng, watching their children leave with the army, the last Manchu invasion had killed several people, this time I don't know how many children are buried in other places, but since they are soldiers have to fight, since they have received that salary, they can't be afraid of death, this truth is still known to these simple people.

"Ergouzi, do a good job, listen to the words of the inspector!"

"Bunny, beat up the Tartar bitches so hard, don't embarrass your father!"

From time to time, such words were heard by the roadside, and from time to time people rushed over and stuffed hard-boiled eggs into the hands of their sons on the march. It can be seen that the people of Xishan Town are sincere in their support for the Inspection Division, and they do not have much resistance to their sons and nephews joining the army to fight.

Of course, this may also be related to Chen Yue's conscription policy, don't have only children, don't be married, many families have two or three sons, and sending out a soldier can not only exchange fifty acres of land without paying taxes, but also bring back a sum of money every month, what a cost-effective thing. If you win the battle, you will get more silver rewards, didn't the Qingtian boy of the Xu family and the fierce son of the Wang family get a silver reward of twenty taels a few days ago? This made many families who had never seen so much silver in their lives red-eyed all of a sudden, and they secretly ordered their sons to fight hard, and also kill a full Tartar and make merits to give Lao Tzu a long face!

The army followed the narrow mountain road all the way east, and after exiting the mountain pass, it took another half an hour to reach Fangshan County.

Looking at the smoke and fire rising above the city, Chen Yue sighed, did not give the order to enter the city, but went around the city, and continued to chase the Qing army south.

Chen Yue's ambush plan at the beginning looked very good, but walking on the road, he realized the shallowness of the plan. After Fangshan, it is considered to be out of the mountainous area, but the terrain here is still undulating, and there are endless fields on both sides of the road, and most of the fields have been barren. In such a terrain, the cavalry can gallop to their heart's content, but it is not easy for Chen Yue's subordinates to rush to the front to ambush around the road with a large number of chariot infantry, unless he orders to abandon the chariot and advance lightly, but then how to face the sprint of the Manchu Tartar cavalry?

The chariot could only drive on the official road, and it was difficult to move an inch in the field out of the official road, which also made it impossible for the army to get out of the official road at all, and could only chase after the butt of the full tartar.

More than 10,000 people walked by, and both sides of the road were full of various traces, but they were not afraid to catch up with Mantar. From time to time, I saw the corpses of ordinary people on the side of the road, which made the hearts of all the soldiers extremely heavy.

At the beginning, every time he saw a corpse, Chen Yue would send a few people to bury it, but as there were more and more corpses, burying them one by one would inevitably delay the march, so he could only sigh helplessly and ignore it for the time being.

After chasing along the road for three hours, the sky was gradually getting dark, Chen Yue estimated that it would not be too far from the Manchu Tartars, because the Manchu Tartars with a large number of people could not be so fast, maybe the Manchu Tartars and the people were more than ten miles ahead!

Looking at the darkening sky, Chen Yue ordered to camp on the spot, and eighteen chariots were surrounded and arranged into a car city, and the soldiers spent the night in it.
